Chapter 187, return to the Hou Mansion

readx;? That black lightning, what is it if it is not fire?

This sky-splitting firehorse of the Marquis of Baokang's Mansion let out a cheerful hiss at this time, rushed to Chen Qi, lay down, kept rubbing Chen Qi with his big head, and stretched out his long tongue from time to time, licking the saliva on his face. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Chen Qi let out a cheerful laugh through the pain and rubbed it on its head, but he couldn't try it out at all.

Huo'er also sensed Chen Qi's weakness, stopped playing Huan, and looked at him with concern.

Chen Qi smiled, adjusted a posture and sat down against the tree, and said with a smile: "It's okay, a little injury, it's okay." Speaking of which, I haven't thanked you yet, if you hadn't arrived in time, I would have been miserable. ”

Huo'er wagged his tail very proudly, and then he was afraid, his back was facing Chen Qi, and he kept shaking his back.

"This is ......" Chen Qi suddenly realized, and hurriedly reached out to grope in the luxurious saddle on its back, and sure enough, as soon as his hand reached in, he touched a letter.

He opened the letter, and what caught his eyes was a neat, straight, angular line of handwriting.

This font looks quite weird, and you can see at a glance that it is written by a woman, but the heroism revealed in the handwriting is not inferior to that of any man.

But after reading two lines, Chen Qi's brows furrowed, and his mind was no longer on handwriting.

This letter was written by Kang Ning, and the content of it was what Chen Qi was most worried about - the internal response of the Marquis of Baokang's mansion, the alchemist Mr. Zhou, still did it.

The letter said that Mr. Zhou's name was Zhou Rutao, and after he got the Nine Leaves Tianyun Ginseng, he secretly made a move when refining the Heaven Replenishing Pill - after all, with his identity, it was too easy to do anything in the alchemy, and he directly destroyed the entire furnace of the Pill - and outsiders couldn't say anything about this practice, after all, alchemy was always risky.

The Nine Leaf Heavenly Ginseng and the other materials prepared by the Marquis of Baokang's Mansion together were enough to refine five furnaces of pills, plus Zhou Rutao had "spoken first" before, and it was extremely difficult to refine the Heaven Replenishing Pill, so destroying one or two furnaces of pills at the beginning was not an unacceptable thing.

But after the failure of the three furnaces of pills in a row, Bao Chenzhi, the first strategist of the Marquis Mansion, still noticed that when Zhou Rutao was refining the fourth furnace of pills, Bao Chenzhi hid in the pill room and peeped secretly, and found that Zhou Rutao had words in his mouth when he was refining the pill, and he was saying something sorry to the Marquis of Baokang, and he couldn't help himself. At this time, Bao Chenzhi was finally convinced that he had deliberately refined the pill!

Bao Chenzhi immediately made a move and captured Zhou Rutao, and the movement in the Danfang immediately alarmed the entire Marquis of Baokang's mansion.

When Kang Ning and the others arrived, Zhou Rutao swallowed his last breath.

He committed suicide, and the poison was hidden between his teeth, and with the elixir refined by his alchemist himself, no one could save him after taking it.

Then they found a suicide note on Zhou Rutao's body, which was written a few days ago, and the time was calculated the day after Chen Qi sent Jiuye Tianyun ginseng to the Marquis of Baokang's mansion. The suicide note said very clearly, Zhou Rutao's behind-the-scenes instructions asked him to use the excuse of "alchemy failure" to destroy the Jiuye Tianyun ginseng, but Zhou Rutao's sixth sense felt a strong uneasiness, and he had a hunch that he might be exposed this time, so he left his last words early.

The suicide note said that he had followed the Marquis of Baokang for decades, but now he had betrayed the Marquis, and he had long been determined to die. But he was also forced to be helpless, because his wife and children were controlled by others before, and he had to be so for the sake of his wife and children's lives.

But he didn't name the person behind it in the letter — but Ms. Corning said she had probably guessed who it was, but she didn't elaborate on it.

However, Kang Ning found a detail in Zhou Rutao's suicide note, that is, he told the instructor behind the scenes about Chen Qi's sending of Jiuye Tianyun ginseng.

This shocked Corning, and he was very worried about the safety of the Chenqi, so he sent Huo'er to look for it and see if he could find it.

After reading the letter, Chen Qi's heart was warm.

Kang Ning probably didn't know it yet, he already knew the whole thing, and even he already knew the identity of Zhou Rutao's traitor - the so-called behind-the-scenes messenger Kang Ning didn't say it, but Chen Qi knew that it must be the young master of the so-called Marquis of Dawn's family.

Lying comfortably in the luxurious and comfortable saddle on Huo'er's back, Chen Qi calculated the cause and effect of the whole thing in his heart.

From the very beginning of this matter, what he suffered was an unwarranted disaster, helping the A family to offend the B family, and the A family must have the responsibility and obligation to defend him - otherwise who will help them from now on?

But having said that, there have been more cold-hearted people in recent years, and perhaps in the eyes of some selfish people, what they have with Chen Qi is a transaction, and no one owes anyone.

The so-called help is love, not helping is duty.

This kind of talk is complete fart!

Fortunately, Kangning is not such a cold person, and after seeing the letter, she immediately sent her mount Huo'er to gallop thousands of miles to help Chen Qi.

Although Huo'er is not a human, his spirituality is no worse than that of a human, and after all, it is a high-level fierce beast, although it has not reached the peak now, it has not reached the ninth level, but if it really talks about strength, the current Chen Qi will definitely not be able to beat it.

If Huo'er hadn't arrived in time, Chen Qi's loss this time would have been much heavier.

Just a few seconds, or even a second, he was about to detonate the life source in the super-rank beast egg in his body, and then he was extremely miserable. But now, he just suffered some internal injuries, and he brought good wound medicine in his space ring, which was prepared for him by the Canglan Martial Academy, as long as he took it and recuperated for two days.

It's a good man again!

For Chen Qi, he also remembered this favor in his heart.

And the main problem now is that because of the Marquis of Dawn, Chen Qi has been tied to a rope with the Marquis of Baokang's mansion, and now he must save the Marquis of Baokang in order to save his life.

As for the young master of the Marquis of Dawn's family, as well as the entire Marquis of Dawn's Mansion, Chen Qi also kept it in mind.

This account will naturally be settled in the future!

Huo'er's docile speed is fast and steady, and this time I don't need to go back in a straight line like I did before I came, so in just half a day, Huo'er returned to the Marquis of Baokang's Mansion with Chen Qi.

After learning the news of Chen Qi's return, Kang Ning personally came out to greet him, and as soon as they met, he saw that Chen Qi was injured, hugged his fists and saluted, and apologized: "Brother Chen Qi, this time it is our Marquis Baokang's Mansion that has affected you." ”

Chen Qi couldn't help her, so he had to help her and said, "Miss is polite, there is a debtor and a debtor, and Miss doesn't have to take the matter on herself." And I want to thank you for sending Huo'er to save me, if Huo'er hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid I would have been arrested and taken to the Marquis of Dawn's Mansion at this time!"

Kang Ning's face was a little ugly, and he said, "It seems that Brother Chen Qi already knows." ”

"That's right, the two people who attacked me, one is called Kong Maobai, and the other is Mao Weiyi," Chen Qi sneered, "It was a certain young master from the Marquis of Dawn's Mansion who sent them to arrest me, hey, to deal with me, a little soldier, he actually sent two knights at a time, he really looks up to me!"

Kang Ning shook his head and said: "Brother Chen Qi's marrow ointment is popular in Baokang City, this matter is not difficult to inquire, I think Li Yusheng is just using the topic to play, mainly because of the benefits of the marrow ointment." ”

"That guy's name is Li Yusheng?"

"That's right, the fifth heir to the throne of the Marquis of Dawn. ”

Chen Qi nodded, didn't speak again, just wrote down the name.

Kang Ning stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation, "This is not the place to speak, Brother Chen Qi, please follow me in the inner hall." ”

Chen Qi nodded, and the two walked directly into the inner hall, and on the way Kang Ning asked, "I see that your face is ugly, was it hurt by the two of them?"

"I've been hurt a bit, but Huo'er has already avenged me. ”

Kang Ning did not doubt him, after all, with Huo'er's strength, it was not an unusual thing to kill two knights, otherwise she would not have let Huo'er go to find Chen Qi by herself.

Chen Qi asked, "This won't bring any trouble to the Marquis of Baokang's mansion, right?"

"It's just two dead dogs, what's the trouble?" Kang Ning replied domineeringly: "Besides, our Marquis Mansion of Baokang and the Marquis of Dawn Mansion have always been on good terms, and they have been fighting openly and secretly for many years, and this time they put their claws on our territory, and they only deserved to be chopped off." ”

Chen Qi knew in his heart that it seemed that the two sides had grievances.

The two came to the inner hall, sat down separately, and Chen Qi asked straight to the point: "What is the situation of Marquis Baokang now?"

Kang Ning was slightly stunned, but his face did not show any abnormality, and said: "Father fought against two super-level fierce beasts that day, and was seriously injured, and he is still unconscious, and he can only use medicine to hang himself. Uncle Zhou...... Zhou Rutao said that only the Heavenly Pill could save his father. ”

"I've never heard of an injury that requires a medication to treat. Mengbai said in the sea of Chen Qi's knowledge, and Chen Qi said this sentence as it was, followed by a sentence, "Haven't you ever doubted it?"

Kangning smiled bitterly, and before he could answer, a voice sounded at the door, "Of course there are doubts, and it is precisely because of this sentence that I began to doubt him." It's just that Zhou Rutao is an old brother who has been with Hou Ye for decades after all, and I was only suspicious at the beginning, only thinking that he had limited ability and only knew this kind of treatment, but I didn't expect him to rebel. ”

Chen Qi turned his head and saw a middle-aged scribe walking in slowly, he remembered that this person's surname was Bao, and he was the most respected staff member of the Marquis of Baokang's mansion, so he gave a salute, "Mr. Bao." ”

Bao Chenzhi returned the salute, "Classmate Chen Qi, I made you suffer." But now that time is pressing, I won't say anything polite, and there is a particularly important matter that I need your help with. ”

"Mr. Bao, please speak. ”

"I would like to ask, where did you get that nine-leaf Tianyun ginseng?" (To be continued.) )
