Chapter Seventy-One: The Strange Poison of the Elixir (Part II)
At night, the turbulent Cloud Castle fell into silence again, and few people could sleep peacefully in the silent night.
Yanzhou Jiang family, one of the seven families, its ancestor Jiang Chengzi is known as the world's first sword casting master, and most of the famous swords in the rivers and lakes are from Jiang Chengzi's hand. The Jiang family has a profound heritage, and it is still known for its magic weapons.
"What do you think of today's events, father?" Jiang Lei asked.
Jiang Weizhi, the head of the Jiang family, is the person who Jiang Lei's mouth calls "father", who knows the destiny of heaven at an age, but he looks like he is only in his forties. Jiang Leinai is his eldest son, with a steady and peaceful temperament, and he treats people and things in a certain way, and he is also a leader among the younger generation. Jiang Weizhi didn't answer him immediately but fell into deep thought, the five people who had died were all first-class masters today, three of them were from the Seventh Family, I don't know why, he felt in his heart for no reason that this incident might have been aimed at them in the first place, Daoyuan and ** were just covering people's eyes.
Seeing that he didn't answer, Jiang Leizhi asked again, Jiang Weizhi came back to his senses, sighed heavily and said, "Lei'er, I'm afraid we came here this time because we came to the wrong place!" ”
"Father, what do you mean by that? Also, what are we doing here this time? Can't you tell your child yet? Jiang Lei was a little puzzled, in fact, he also had doubts about this trip, but his father wanted to come and he should obey it, so he didn't ask much, why did he hear that the current tone was a little wrong?
Jiang Weizhi looked at his son complicatedly, and finally sighed again after struggling for a long time, "This matter is very important, it involves an old incident many years ago, it is better to not know or not to know", seeing that he still wanted to ask, Jiang Weizhi raised his hand to stop him and changed the topic, "I am afraid that Yunbao has no good intentions in attracting us here with this matter this time, but everyone is lucky, and they are trapped here without greed, these five people are probably just the beginning, and more people will die here in the future." As for Jiang Qi, he is a talent, but he doesn't know what his identity is, and he shouldn't know about the incident a few years ago with his age." Thinking of the people who besieged many masters in the day and did not change their face and had a smooth bearing, I have to sigh that the afterlife is terrifying!
"In that case, why don't we leave in time?" The father refused to say, so he had to give up asking, but why did he continue to stay knowing that this place was dangerous?
Jiang Weizhi smiled bitterly, "People have set up a situation to invite us in, and the prey has entered the trap, how can the hunter leave a way to escape?" You're still a little too tender. ”
Jiang Lei didn't expect that many people would not think of it like him, but after tonight, they would have to face the current situation, because not long after Jiang Weizhi's words were finished, there was a burst of noise outside the house, and if you listened carefully, it was vaguely said that "the road down the mountain was blocked" Yunyun.
He carried him all the way back to the house before being put down, "I'm almost better, you don't have to be so nervous, I'm not a weak lady, a little injury can be delicate like this", Wei Yu frowned and said, Fang Cai didn't argue with him in front of people because of the timing and occasion, and now she feels the need to make it clear that Ning Qi's protection of her is a little excessive, and she doesn't like this.
"Weak? Just you? A hint of banter appeared in Ning Qi's eyes, "If Wan Qi Haocang knew that he was defeated at the hands of a little woman who was 'weak and couldn't help the wind', I am afraid that he would directly die of shame and indignation, saving me hundreds of thousands of soldiers, horses, and grass." ”
Knowing that he was joking on purpose, he didn't pay attention to it, "Oh? In this way, wouldn't His Royal Highness King Ling have to thank me well? ”
"I don't mind spreading your name as 'weak and can't help the wind' to the world, it's just a gesture for the Seven Star Pavilion, as long as you don't turn your face when the time comes." Ning Qi laughed and teased her, of course he knew that she was not a weak woman, but he subconsciously wanted to include her under his wings all the time.
Wei Yu glared at him angrily, but the old god didn't care at all, but her eyes were sour after staring for a long time, and she had to give up. After thinking about it, I got back to business, "What's going on today?" ”
Ning Qi knew that she wanted to ask about the confrontation, so she told the cause and effect, and Wei Yu only felt speechless after listening to it, "Is it so difficult to explain?" ”
"It's not difficult, I just think it's too wasteful to talk to those people", Ning Qi replied casually, not saying anything about them at all.
This tone is arrogant and makes people speechless, but the person in front of him also has this capital, "It's quite annoying, but more things are better than less, and a word is not a loss to avoid trouble", this is clearly still persuasion, Ning Qi knew that she was worried that he would make too many enemies, a touch of gentleness crossed her eyes, and the smile in her eyes became deeper and deeper.
"Judging from what we have heard so far, everyone else except us should have come here for the same purpose, and they have neither been deceived nor threatened. Yunbao only sent one word when inviting each sect", Ning Qi paused, and gently spit out one word in Wei Yu's inquiring gaze - "Figure".
Fig? What diagram? There are too many things that can attract people in the rivers and lakes to rush to the scene regardless of the reason, wealth, weapons, cheats...... Where there are people, there is **, and where there is **, as long as you do what they like, you can easily stir up the storm. The human heart is a bottomless pit, and of course, the more in the bowl, the better. In the end, it's obviously just a handful of loess, every inch of the world, but you still have to fight for me when you are alive.
"Treasure map?" Wei Yu asked funny, there is no shortage of this kind of story in the wild history of the water and the breeze, today the sword is in the world of conspiracies and tricks, tomorrow the treasure is in the world and is fighting and killing, the rivers and lakes are said to be chic, but in fact, it is just a corner of the world.
"Smart", Ning Qi also smiled back to her, but Wei Yu rolled her eyes after hearing it, what is this to praise her, it is obviously a joke, and she wants to sneak attack with a slight movement under her hand. The meridians of the human body move the whole body, and when she made those small calculations in her heart, she had unconsciously revealed signs on her body, how could Ning Qi not notice it, and before she could do anything, she had already taken her into her arms and restrained her, "Don't make trouble, listen to me", a deep voice sounded in her ears, this tone made Wei Yu's heart tremble slightly, and she lost her strength in her hands, pouted, and had to continue to listen to him explain quietly.
Seeing that she was settled, the corners of Ning Qi's mouth curved slightly, and she couldn't stay idle as soon as she had the energy, she really didn't know what to say about her, "Do you remember Bai Ruohong of Baichuan Villa?" ”
"Of course I do!" How could she not remember what happened to her when she first came out of the rivers and lakes, and now she occasionally thinks about it and feels embarrassed, "What does it have to do with Bai Ruohong?" Have you found the man who killed him? ”
"The murderer hasn't been found yet, but the key is the picture in his hand." Ning Qi said lightly.
