Chapter 158: Don't Have Intentions (1)
It was already evening, the twilight was heavy, and the sunset was gradually disappearing behind the dense forest of the 100,000 mountains, only a glimpse of the glow remained in the sky, scattered on the undulating green trees, and the pitch was as bright as darkness.
Wei Nong led Xiangrui to walk on the path of the dense forest, looking for a place to live tonight. After these few days, she has gradually become bolder, and she dares to stay overnight in a remote and uninhabited place, which is also more convenient for her to do some private affairs of her daughter's family.
After walking like this for a short while, I suddenly heard the faint sound of swords and halberds. Wei Nong didn't dare to light the fire, so he secretly took a few steps forward, and looked into the distance in the twilight, but saw a man dressed in black, who was being besieged by six people. These seven people were all armed with long swords and fought fiercely, and the man in black who was besieged had the highest kung fu, and he did not lose the upper hand with one enemy and six, but he also failed to gain the upper hand, and barely fought a draw with the six.
The sky was too dark, and the slight darkness was too far away, and she couldn't see the faces of those people clearly. But just looking at the martial arts, she admired the besieged man a little, and she also knew that the longer she fought, the more unfavorable it would be to him. But after all, she doesn't like to meddle as much as before, and she doesn't know which of these people is good and which is evil, so she made up her mind to be alone and act as if she didn't know.
She turned around and went to greet Xiangrui, wanting to leave the place as soon as possible. However, as soon as he returned and walked a few steps, he heard a sentence from behind him-"Qi Zhan, just grab it!" β
Qi Zhan? At Nie Xingyi's birthday banquet last year, the assassin Qi Zhan who assassinated him? Memories suddenly flooded back, prompting Weinong to stop. She remembered that when she was pushed by Nie Xingyi as a shield that day, Qi Zhan had shown mercy to her subordinates, and the way he looked at her at that time......
Thinking of this, Wei Nong couldn't sit idly by. She immediately summoned Xiangrui, took the mandarin duck sword from her baggage, and quickly ran to the place where the incident occurred, intending to take the opportunity to sneak attack. However, the kung fu of those six people was too high, firmly surrounding Qi Zhan in the center, she couldn't aim at their body at all, and she couldn't enter the circle.
So, she had to stand outside the circle, swing her mandarin duck sword and scold coldly: "Hey! With one enemy and six, what kind of hero is it? β
I think her reprimand was too sudden, and three of them slammed into shape. But the master's move is the most taboo to be distracted, but this slow half move, Qi Zhan has already sent out three hidden weapons from his sleeve, and the "whoosh" three times passed through his throat, and the three of them have already fallen to the ground and convulsed.
There were three fewer people in the besieged circle, and a large flaw was immediately revealed. Qi Zhan saw the flaws in this formation, walked backwards with his sword, retreated while fighting, and finally jumped up and jumped out of the circle, which could be ignored by Wei Nong's side.
"Night girl, see you again." Although Qi Zhan was panting, his voice was very steady, and there was no lack of banter.
When the lazy and magnetic voice came suddenly, Wei Nong felt so familiar! "Young Master Qi! It turned out to be you! She exclaimed.
Qi Zhan frowned when he heard this: "What? You only recognize me? β
He pursed his lips slightly and didn't say anything more. She should have thought of it a long time ago, Gongzi Qi is also surnamed Qi, and he is deeply hidden, and his family lives in Youzhou! Youzhou is the place where the Momen helmsman is located! And Qi Zhan is the number one killer in Momen, famous all over the world!
She always thought that a long-famous killer like Qi Zhan must be a cold person, and the words "don't approach the living" were almost written on her face. But she couldn't have imagined that Qi Zhan was an unruly scoundrel on weekdays, he didn't look like five big or three thick, he didn't kill people like hemp, he didn't even have a scar on his face, and he looked so handsome and young!
Qi Gongzi in front of her, she can't connect with the elusive number one killer at all. Especially the night he assassinated Nie Xingyi, those eagle-like sharp eyes really impressed her, no matter how she looked at it, it didn't look like the eyes that Qi Gongzi should have!
There is a sense of deception in the moment. She had long thought that Qi Gongzi was hidden deeply, but she didn't know that he was hidden to such a point!
Qi Zhan also saw her annoyance at this time, so he couldn't help but tease: "Night girl, you are reckless every time you 'act bravely'!" β
Wei Nong bit his lower lip, and felt that he was already difficult to ride a tiger, so he whispered back to him: "Shhhhhhhh Let's talk about winning the battle! β
Qi Zhan sneered, but said slowly: "You're here, we're going to win, what else are you going to fight?" β
Wei Nong looked at him puzzled: "My kung fu is not as high as you think." β
Qi Zhan smiled silently.
And over there, the only three killers left really didn't move anymore, each holding their swords cautiously and looking at Wei Nong.
Wei Nong felt very strange when she saw this, and couldn't help but say to herself: "Do I look like a female demon?" β
Qi Zhan didn't pay attention to her, but smiled at the other three people: "Qi is in a good mood tonight, let you go, why don't you get out of here?" β
The three of them actually looked at each other, and the first one said coldly: "We will come again after receiving people's money and people's disasters!" β
Qi Zhan smiled "ha": "There are good mountains, rivers and scenery here, and it is not bad to be buried here." When the time comes, I will definitely find a good place for you, where you can see the sunrise and sunset, the birds flying and the clouds flying, and then engrave a few words on the tablet. β
"What word?" Wei Nong immediately sang and harmonized.
"Died at the hands of Qi Zhan, and there is honor."
With a "poof", Wei Nong couldn't help laughing, forgetting the tense atmosphere for a while, and forgetting that there were still three dead people lying on the ground.
The other three who were alive looked at each other, and immediately took the corpses of their companions and fled. Before leaving, he didn't forget to leave the next sentence: "You wait!" β
It's really a killer, and even the speed of escape is stunning. Wei Nong looked at the empty dense forest under the moonlight, and then looked at the Mandarin Duck Sword that he didn't have time to shoot, and asked in surprise, "It's over?" β
"Hmm." Qi Zhan's thin lips hooked up a light smile again: "Thanks to the Night Girl's help." β
Wei Nong felt even more clueless, and wondered: "I didn't do anything?" Why did they flee? β
Qi Zhan looked at the Mandarin Duck Sword in her hand and explained lightly: "Oh, originally we had a draw, but as soon as you came, I killed three more people." Let's go two-on-three, and they'll find that they don't have a chance of winning. β
"Really?" Thinking about it carefully, it seems that this is really the case. Even if he didn't make a move, Qi Zhan would have already killed three people. Wouldn't it be a tie with a one-on-six and a three?
Thinking like this, Wei Nong put away the mandarin duck sword and said curtly: "My role is to scare them, so that you can take the opportunity to send a secret weapon, right?" β
"It's already a lifesaver." Qi Zhan intended to comfort.
Wei Nong glanced at him, took a few steps back, deliberately kept a few distances from him, and then said: "Since it is a life-saving grace, then I will ask you a few things, and you must answer truthfully." β
Qi Zhan stood still and didn't move, put away his sword with his backhand, and said with a smile: "You ask." β
Wei Nong thought about it and asked first, "We've seen each other before, right?" β
"Didn't you just see each other four days ago?" Qi Zhan's smile remained unchanged.
"That's not what I meant!" Wei Nong unconsciously took a few steps back and asked cautiously, "Do you recognize me?" β
"What do you recognize?" Qi Zhan pretended not to know.
He groaned for a moment: "At this time last year, you took over a business and went to the Yanwang Palace to assassinate the new king Nie Xingyi. When you looked at me at that time, it was clear that you knew me. β
"I have to go in and out of the palace of the four kings several times a year, and I have killed countless people, what kind of scene are you talking about? I can't remember it for a long time. Qi Zhan continued to pretend.
Wei Nong was almost half angry, gritted his teeth and said, "Impossible!" If you really don't remember me, why did you deliberately approach me in Fallen Leaf City? It's a chartered inn again, and it's pretending to be illiterate, what do you want to do? β
Qi Zhan was slightly surprised when he heard this, and then explained with a smile: "I think the night girl misunderstood." I chartered the inn because someone was chasing meβthe same people tonight. There were so many of them that I didn't want to reveal my whereabouts, so I had to charter a few inns so that I could hide at any time. β
When Wei Nong heard this explanation, he was even more angry, and asked repeatedly: "Since you are being chased and killed, why do you keep pestering me?" Are you deliberately trying to implicate me? β
"It's not." Qi Zhan finally restrained his cynical smile and explained, "I'm not as vicious as you think. β
"Then do you admit that you have a plot against me?" Wei Nong immediately asked.
Qi Zhan also knew that he couldn't hide it, otherwise he wouldn't be able to explain the reason why he approached her three or four times. Thinking of this, he had to sigh: "I admit it, but I never wanted to hurt you. β
Slightly sneered: "Then I have to thank you?" β
"I'm sorry." Qi Zhan could only reply.
"What is your purpose?" Wei Nong asked again.
"There is no purpose." Qi Gongzi replied ambiguously: "I met you by accident." β
"Unintentional encounter, intentional approach?" Slightly thick and sharp.
Qi Gongzi did not deny it this time, but he did not mean to tell the truth.
"Then you dare to say that you don't know me? If you don't know, what do you do when you approach me? Wei Nong immediately caught the omission in his words.
Qi Zhan had to be silent for a moment: "I saw you in the Yan Palace." At that time, you ...... Sit in the Queen's seat. β
"I've only seen it in Yanwang Palace?" Slightly skeptical.
"Hmm. Now, I don't have to lie to you. β
"Then why did you show mercy to my men at the time? And the way you look at me......" Wei Nong didn't know how to describe it, but said with great certainty: "Before that, you must have seen me!" β
"Nope." Qi Zhan immediately lowered his eyes and denied: "The reason why I showed mercy at that time was because I didn't kill women; Moreover, you look like my aunt. That's all. β
"Like your aunt?" Wei Nong didn't know whether to cry or laugh, but this was a barely convincing statement, and she couldn't help complaining: "You lie too much, I don't dare to believe you." β
"I'm a killer and only show up when I kill someone." Qi Zhan asked rhetorically: "Have you been assassinated before?" β
Wei Nong was asked this time: "No." β
At this point in the conversation with each other, Wei Nong is also a little uncertain. As a killer, will Qi Zhan take over the business of stealing? Could it be that the person who stole the sword in the palace of Chu six years ago was really not him? Maybe in the eyes of the killer, stealing is shameful? They don't bother to do it?
Wei Nong really wanted to ask Qi Zhan directly, asking him if he was the thief six years ago. But if he wasn't, wouldn't she be self-defeating? He already knew that she was the abolished queen of the Yan Kingdom, did he still want to let him know that he was the princess of Chu?
Wei Nong unconsciously approached him while thinking, wanting to smell him. It's a pity that the time is too long, six years have passed, and she has long forgotten the smell of the sword thief in the palace of the king of Chu. Looking back now, I only remember the man's lazy appearance, his profligate and ruthless methods, and his teasing of her.
And these qualities are quite similar to Qi Zhan in front of him.
Is it him? Wei Qiang longed to stick to him, trying to remember what he smelled at the time.
"What are you guys doing!" At this moment, a sharp female voice suddenly came, with a thick ...... Vinegar?
