Chapter 173: The Wisher Takes the Bait
Qi Jingzhi can be regarded as having seen what it means to turn his face like turning a book.
Before he sat down, Ding Chengyuan also kept saying that there was no one in the county town of the Demon Suppression Academy, and he wanted to stay as a witness, but he didn't want to change his tone in a blink of an eye, and he was going to be assigned to be bait.
Facing this An Fenghou's rather aggressive gaze, Qi Jingzhi's face remained unchanged at all, not to mention the resentment of being deceived and persecuted, and he didn't even show half a point of surprise: "If my guess is right, does Ding Hou want me to accompany Wei Bao to guard the spirit, and wait for the people behind the scenes to fight those corpses, and a few more adults will have a yellow finch behind?"
"Not bad!" Ding Chengyuan nodded very dryly.
"I don't understand this a little, originally tonight I would follow Wei Bao's arrangement to stay in the Baiyun Palace for a night, if someone really makes a big disturbance in the place where the Wei clan stopped, Qi Mou will be involved involuntarily whether he wants to or not, whether he knows it or not."
The young man's words echoed in the Bihan Pavilion, and he seemed quite calm from beginning to end.
"In this way, the Hou Ye called me to the mansion and took the trouble to point out the words, wouldn't it be superfluous? It can't be poor Qi, you can't bear to be a fool, right?"
Qi Jingzhi paused, looking at the smile that widened at the corner of Ding Chengyuan's mouth, he really couldn't figure out the other party's thoughts: "What's more, if those thieves really have dense eyeliner and peep into the whole city, I just went to Changle County Ya first, and then had a secret conversation with Cui County Linglai Hou Mansion for a long time, and then go back to Baiyun Palace at this time, which stupid fish will take the bait?"
When Ding Chengyuan heard this, he finally couldn't help laughing: "Whether you can catch a fish or not is a matter for Benhou, you just say whether to go or not, right?"
He didn't wait for Qi Jingzhi's answer, and then said, "If Qi Jingzhi is unwilling to take risks, my Hou Mansion has fine houses and beautiful maids, delicious wine, and delicious food, and there are so many iron guards outside, so you will not have nowhere to go and die on the streets. In the future, the lord of the country and the Demon Suppression Academy will inquire about the chaos in Jiuzhen, and we will still point to Qi and have a lot of good words!"
These words seem to be beautiful, but in fact, they make Qi Jingzhi's current situation clear and completely seal his retreat.
There is no one left in the city's Demon Suppression Governor's Office, and most of Qi Jingzhi has also been targeted, if he runs alone, it is indeed very likely to die on the streets, even if he really hides in the Hou Mansion to survive, after the court investigates, as the only remaining detective in the city, but he has done nothing in this chaos, and the end is not too good.
In the final analysis, these high-ranking eunuchs in Jiuzhen County may not need the good words of a small detective service, but whether he Qi Jingzhi can survive this turmoil and go home unhindered to find Grandpa's whereabouts depends on the faces of Ding Chengyuan and the Demon Suppression Academy.
Along the way, he has gained a lot of convenience with the waist card given by Liu Muzhi, and now it is time to pay the price.
Similarly, the chairs of the Bihan Pavilion of the Marquis of Anfeng Mansion are not for anyone who wants to sit and sit if they want to.
Between the thoughts of birth and death, Qi Jingzhi smiled freely, and then said solemnly: "Ding Hou doesn't need to provoke the generals, I came all the way to Liaozhou, but I didn't come to see the Wei clan exterminating!" But is it...... If the fish caught by that time is too big and Ding Hou is too late to collect the rod, don't blame Qi for running away with Wei Bao first!"
Ding Chengyuan's smile was even bigger, and he said, "This is nature! Although Ci is not in charge of the army, since Ben Hou chose to tell him bluntly, he has no intention of treating you and Wei Bao as outcasts, and with Qi Bao to take care of him, Wei Bao will have a little more hope of surviving. The Golden Dao Wei Clan has contributed to Liaozhou, and it shouldn't be left alone!"
Qi Jingzhi couldn't help but be quite surprised when he heard this, the Marquis of An Feng in front of him could say this, it seemed that he was not completely cold-blooded, but he did not hesitate at all when he should be baited, and this is true for Cui Zitao, who is a nephew, and Wei Shi, who has contributed to Liaozhou, and the same is true for him, a small detective who came from afar.
These people are not good people, but they are not really evil.
"Isn't Tzu in charge......
Qi Jingzhi suddenly remembered the inscription on the sunken iron wall behind the gate of the Hou Mansion: "Blazing furnace, molten iron collar...... This Marquis An Feng is the furnace used by the lord of the country to smelt the iron of the East China Sea, perhaps only with such a mind and determination can he sit firmly in the position of this military marquis who is fierce and powerful in Haidong?"
I only listen to Ding Cheng at the moment
Yuan continued, "Besides, if you want to catch a big fish, this bait is the most important thing, and the more you can toss, the deeper the fish will bite! On the contrary, if you and Wei Bao are ignorant and swallowed by others, then Hou Ke will have no singing!"
"As for whether the fish will be stupid enough to go to the White Cloud Palace to bite the hook...... To tell you the truth, Ben Hou is not the only nest in the city, those thieves have made such a big noise, they are already ready to send arrows, and they will always choose one place to bite it."
Qi Jingzhi nodded, immediately stood up, hugged his fists slightly towards everyone, and walked towards the door of the warm pavilion.
Ding Chengyuan didn't hold back, but said to everyone with a smile, "Have you seen it? Ben Hou saw early on that this Qi Ji Shi is not only a righteous man, but also a hero who is accustomed to doing things and getting things done! Such characters are only afraid of nothing in the world, and they have never been afraid of things to hide!"
Qi Jingzhi naturally heard these words.
When he was in Changle County before, Ding Chengyuan's comment to him was "love to cause trouble", but now although he has changed his words, the meaning inside is similar.
Qi Jingzhi ignored it, and walked out of the Bihan Pavilion without stopping, and smiled at Geshu Dashi, who came back to look around: "Brother Geshu once stretched, and in the future, he will follow Ding Hou around, and it is not a problem to make contributions, which is really gratifying!"
Geshu Dashi took two steps forward, and the armor on his body was sonorous.
He raised his hand to Qi Jingyi and hugged his fist, although he deliberately lowered his voice, his tone was extremely solemn: "Brother Qi is quite dangerous to go, please take care!" Ge Shu will go to ask Hou Ye for permission later, if there is a change in the Baiyun Palace, I will follow him to the rescue!"
"Although Ge Shu is nothing, but the Hou Ye is profound, and the iron cavalry in the house is also fierce, coming and going like the wind, the two brothers only need to withstand it for a moment!"
Qi Jingzhi nodded, knowing that Geshu Dashi was guarding the door, and the conversation inside had not been avoided, and he had heard it all.
It's no wonder that Ding Chengyuan's plan didn't mean to hide from people, not only the bait was placed in the open, but even the hook was straight, but he didn't worry that the bait would come off on its own.
But at least so far, this An Fenghou's fishing skills are still good.
He used Wei as bait and caught Qi Jingzhi, and then used Wei and Qi Jingzhi as bait, wanting to catch those thieves hiding behind the scenes, and even listened to Ge Shu Dashi's meaning, if the fish was too big, Ding Chengyuan would also end up in person.
It's just that at that time, whether he is a fisherman or a fish in the eyes of others, it is not easy to say, or maybe this An Fenghou has plans to use himself as bait is unknown.
Qi Jingzhi didn't take Ding Chengyuan and Geshu Dashi's assurances too seriously, when it was really critical, didn't he want to see the truth under his hands? His own life can only be earned by the knife in his hand.
Immediately, he clasped his fist at Geshu Dashi, and then walked towards Bannu, who had already gotten up.
At a hurried glance, the broken horn of the bamboo cow on the side seemed to have grown.
"The old Taoist who took bamboo horn stew chased the tengu, but now he doesn't know where he has gone......
This thought flashed through Qi Jingzhi's heart, turned over and stepped on Bannu's back, and gently patted the horse's neck.
It sounded like the neighing of a horse, and then turned into a tiger's roar, and a man and a beast galloped straight in this solemn mansion, and just walked away.
No one came out to stop them all the way, Qi Jingzhi and Bannu bypassed the Shen Tie Wall, crossed the iron guards of the Hou Mansion and the elite of the county army who were still standing quietly, and rushed out through the side gate of the Hou Mansion that had already been opened.
The night outside seemed to be a little deeper, and there was obviously a cold air breeding, which made people's hearts feel cold.
Qi Jingzhi's eyes were full of smoke, and with a flip of his palm, he had already taken out the silver candlestick.
He promised Ding Chengyuan that he would take the initiative to go to Baiyun Palace to accompany Wei Bao, so as to add some weight to the slightly thin bait, so as not to swallow the bait too early and go away, but it does not mean that he will swagger over, which is too hateful.
Suddenly, there seemed to be a flash of blood on the long street, and there was no trace of the man and the beast, only the four soles of the madara
The sound of stepping on the ground sounded, but it seemed to be there and there, fluctuating, as if it came from the netherworld.
With the widening of his knowledge and cultivation, especially in the cultivation of Fan Xia, he played with the five colors of heaven and earth all day long, refining the essence of pine and cypress armor, Qi Jingzhi's control over the things refined by the bronze mirror became more and more proficient, and he could already take the initiative to urge the silver blood flame, expanding the scope of the blood flame enveloping it, and including Bannu.
Although this use will greatly increase the wear and tear of the blood candles on the candlestick, it is clearly not the time to save.
It's the second time that Bannu has been stained with blood, stepping on yin and yang, and on the way from the back garden of Baiyun Palace to Changle County Ya, this guy was still quite frightened and cowering, but now his face is already curious, and even because he was shared by his own master with the elusive secret, he was quite complacent.
As it ran, it looked around, feeling quite new at the sudden change of appearance, and as for the slight chill brought by the blood light, it was not worth mentioning just by looking at its fat body.
Qi Jingzhi didn't care about the half-heartedness of his mount, just because he was also watching intently.
Although the silver blood flame can isolate some ill-intentioned sights, it is not so safe, and now the ghosts and ghosts that are missing in the city are not mentioned, it is the fingerprint of the ghost boy on Cui Zitao's cuffs, but it is also visible under the blood light. If it weren't for the ghost boy who was blocked by Zhu'er's body before, I am afraid that he would have been spotted peeping at the wall.
Qi Jingzhi also clearly remembered that on the gate where the ancient nest old road flowed through, a stone armor priest with a height of nearly a foot and a blue light was quietly looking down on the stream, not to mention Mu Yingxian, a beautiful girl who could still step on yin and yang after getting rid of the blood light.
Compared with Chaozhou, the Jiuzhen County City in Qi Jingzhi's eyes at this moment has another magical scene.
As far as he could see, the roads and houses along the way were shrouded in golden halos of different shades, some places the halo was negligible, and the color was also mixed and impure, biased towards earthy yellow, and some places were much brighter and purer, and he felt rich and magnificent when he looked at it.
A man and a beast rushed out of the distance, seeing that the Baiyun Palace was already in sight, suddenly felt something, and looked back together.
I saw that in the direction of the Marquis of Anfeng's mansion, there was a high wall with golden light coming out, which was slowly growing upward in the night sky.
Later, because the golden wall grew too tall, it no longer looked like a wall, but like a golden pillar that reached through the sky, towering and high, brilliant and brilliant, and it was impossible to see.
Faintly, there seemed to be two golden birds circling around the golden pillar.
One man and one beast had already stopped, Qi Jingzhi looked up and looked at it for a long time, and while his heart was shocked, a thought came to his heart: "Is this taking the initiative to invite war?"
"Hey, if you want to say that this golden pillar is the straight hook of fishing, that An Fenghou really doesn't look like a "peaceful lake", even if the fishing method he is practicing is really a fishing method, I am afraid that the technique is also extremely violent, which is completely different from ordinary fishing."
The next moment, as if echoing with the Marquis of Anfeng's mansion, there were several places in the city of Jiuzhen where the golden light was shining.
Except for the east side, which was only a shapeless and purple golden qi, a huge golden portal rose in the other three directions.
The shapes of these portals are very similar, but the colors are different, some are black, some are frosty, and some seem to be mixed with cinnabar, each with its own extraordinary and dazzling features.
The most miraculous is the Baiyun Palace not far in front of Qi Jingzhi's body, in which a towering statue of a god slowly rose, born with a tiger-faced human body, white-haired tiger claws, and wrapped in a long snake, holding a bronze Yue, it is the god of the eight lords who has never appeared saintly, and the god of Siqiu under the seat of the four o'clock.
I saw that this statue of the god who did not even have a name and surname, the whole body was shrouded in frost-white golden light, the tiger's eyes revealed purple, the tiger's claws came out of black light, and the long snake wrapped around the body was like a cinnabar red gold cast, and the bronze Yue held between the claws was shining with blue gold, and it was actually a body full of gold.
"No wonder Ding Chengyuan wants to fish in the White Cloud Palace...... Now it seems that in addition to the Anfeng Marquis Mansion in this Jiuzhen County, it is the most important here."
Qi Jingzhi sighed, slapped Bannu's neck again, and a man and a beast ran towards the location of the statue of the Autumn God.
However, as he got closer, so did Madano's footsteps
Heavy and sluggish, when he arrived at the gate of Baiyun Palace, he could see the hairy calves of the autumn god on the top of the main hall through the open palace gate, but this guy said that he would not go inside. Chinese Net
Qi Jingzhi's gaze swept over Bannu's body, and he already knew it in his heart.
The statue of the autumn god in the Baiyun Palace undoubtedly has gold and two tigers, and now it is manifested between yin and yang.
It's a pity that it just has a horse's head and feeds on the tiger, which not only can't recognize its relatives, but it has met an enemy, and it is obviously very different from each other.
Thinking about this verse, Qi Jingzhi was no longer embarrassed by it, and hugged the horse's neck and whispered, "You go around the wall of the back garden and wait for me by yourself."
If he really wants to fight later, it is fortunate that this bad man will not hold back, but if the momentum is not right, he and Wei Bao will really run for their lives by pointing at Bannu.
With that, Qi Jingzhi jumped off the back of his mount.
He stood on the stone steps in front of the gate of the White Cloud Palace, watching Bannu run away along the wall as if he had been pardoned, with a dumb smile on his face, but his mind became more and more calm.
