Chapter 173, who is the real murderer behind the scenes
In the face of absolute power, whether it was the stone pillar magic circle in the trial cave or Xiang An's defensive magic array, they were nothing more than scum.
Fat raised his huge forepaw, looked down at Xiang An, who was half-immersed in the water and gravel under his palm, and then stretched out two stubby fingers, gently lifted him up in front of his eyes and licked his tongue, Xiang An hung half-dead in the air, his whole body trembling like a quail waiting to be slaughtered.
"Chubby," Qingshi cried out, "this man is cunning and shameless, and he doesn't taste good at all!" Isn't it, Brother Xiang? ”
Xiang An couldn't speak, first shook his head, found that it seemed to be a mistake, and then struggled to nod his head again and again.
There was another soft bang mixed with a trace of smoke, and the huge divine beast turned into a little fat man, Xiang An fell from mid-air, slapped face down on the hard stone platform, and groaned.
"Brother Xiang," Qingshi walked over and said, "You control this trial cave with a formation disk, can you borrow it from me?" ”
Xiang An trembled and took out a small metal disc the size of a palm from his arms, and wanted to lift it up and hand it to Qingshi, but he was a little powerless.
Qingshi bent down and took a look at the array plate, and said to Jian Ruochen and the other three who were trapped in the water: "Don't worry, three elders, I will send you out immediately." ”
After Jian Ruochen and the three of them fell into the water, the water surrounding them immediately turned into thick slime, and the people were trapped in it and couldn't break free at all. Qingshi fiddled with the array plate twice, and then lightly clicked a few times on the plate, a golden light crossed, and the three of Jian Ruochen and Qingshi Xiang An Xiaopang disappeared together.
In the next moment, everyone appeared on the gold water plate together.
Jian Ruochen and the three of them walked down from the golden water plate, sat down on the spot and crossed their knees to heal the poison, this is already the entrance of the cave, the mountain wind is blowing strongly, and there is no trace of poison in the air. Qingshi said to Xiaopang; "Chubby, give me back all my storage treasures."
"Oh!" Chubby agreed, shook his butt violently, felt that there was no movement, so he reached out to the back of his butt and touched it, naturally he didn't touch the tail, Chubby scratched his head with questions on his face, and suddenly woke up and shouted: "Ah~ I change!" "Immediately turned into a big dog-like white-haired monster.
With a flick of the little fat and fluffy tail, a small metal box suddenly appeared and flew to Qingshi's hand, Qingshi reached out and took out a storage ring from the box and took it on, and then took out a large number of pills such as healing pills, qi replenishing pills, and poison pills, and walked over to help Jian Ruochen and the three of them take it.
The bluestone space spirit weapon was not handed over to Jian Ruochen, but all of them were put into Xiao Chubby's tail, and its tail had a total of thirteen tail bones, each of which had a wonderful use, of which the fourth section was a natural storage magic weapon. This is not an artificially created space spirit weapon, so it will not be repelled by the Trials Cave. Chubby actually became only the size of a flea, and he has been hiding in the blue stone hair.
After Qingshi finished feeding the medicine, he put on all kinds of storage utensils one by one, and then walked to Xiang An's side and said with a smile: "It's almost okay, don't pretend, I know you can't die." ”
"Where am I...... Where's it? Xiang An smiled bitterly and groaned, "Brother Qingshi...... Brother, for the sake of the old love, let it go...... Leave me alone! After saying that, he struggled to get up and knelt crookedly.
Bluestone smiled and looked at him without speaking.
After a while, Xiang An said, "Brother Qingshi, I know what you want?" But I really can't tell you! He gasped for a moment, and was finally able to speak more smoothly.
"Really?" Qingshi was surprised and praised, "Good man! There is righteousness! Then don't blame me for having black hands......" he said, rolling up his sleeves.
"Don't!" Xiang An hurriedly said, "It's not that I don't want to tell you, it's that I can't!" I've been banned, I can't speak! ”
"Ahh Qingshi is a little unexpected, looking at Xiang An's appearance may be true. I couldn't help but bow my head and think. The little fat man turned back into a little fat man, bored and nibbled on a chicken leg around Xiang An in a circle, showing a hint of malice from time to time. Xiang An was very nervous, peeking at Xiaopang from time to time, with a sad face and cowering.
After a while, Qingshi said: "Brother Xiang, I know that you have a hard time, although you are full of lies and have no credibility, but one thing I can be sure of is that you definitely don't want to kill me, right?" ”
"Yes, yes, yes!" Xiang An nodded again and again and said, "Brother Qingshi is smart, I said a long time ago that I was forced to do so, as soon as I thought of coming to kill you, I couldn't sleep all night, and I cried silently until dawn alone......
"Enough!" Qingshi interrupted him, "Although I understand your plight, but who wants to kill me, I really want to know, or I won't be able to sleep!" ”
"Brother Qingshi is so smart, he can naturally guess it," Xiang An said, "Actually, you should have the answer in your heart, please don't embarrass me!" ”
"I guessed a few people who might want to kill me," Aoshi said with a sigh, "However, this kind of thing can't be guessed alone, you have to be sure." Okay, I'll name a few names, and you'll just nod your head, okay? ”
"Not good!" Xiang An said with a sad face, "Do you think that the person who casts the spell can't think of such a simple method?" I'm going to burp at the slightest bit, and instead of betraying him with a burp, I'd just let you kill him. ”
"Well," said Qingshi, "just fulfill your righteousness, and I won't kill you...... Let Chubby eat you. ”
"There's a way, there's a way!" Xiang An hurriedly said, "You guess this person but don't mention the name, it's best to only guess one range, such as which family and which sect he is from, just talk about his characteristics in some aspects, and I won't answer yes or no positively, this may be possible." ”
Qingshi smiled and said, "You've thought of this method a long time ago!" Isn't it? ”
"Alas!" Xiang An said with a bitter face, "I have been suffering since I was a child, and I am always being led by people with ropes and necks to do bad things, and if I want to survive, I only have to use my brains!" "It's true.
"Okay, then we'll give it a try." Qingshi sorted out his thoughts and said: "There is a family that turned out to be very powerful, the most powerful family in the mainland, and then it fell, they missed me very much and kept looking for me, last year an important person of theirs also formed a death squad to ambush me to welcome me, and gave me a good baby soul snatcher ball that almost made me happy to death......"
"It's not Jiang!" Xiang An said, "This is the first time the Qingshi brothers have played this game, right? It's a little rusty, for example, if you want to say that Jiang Chenxiu only needs to say that the sissy of the royal family of the previous dynasty is young, there is no need to express it so complicated. However, the idea is correct, and there is still a lot of room for improvement. ”
Qingshi glanced at Xiang An, "Then why did Jiang Chenxiu lead someone to intercept me?" ”
"It's not Jiang Chenxiu who led someone to intercept and kill you," Xiang An said, "It's Mr. Huo who took Jiang Chenxiu to intercept and kill you, Mr. Huo is a killer I bought, and he has been hiding in Guo Zheng's mansion, and he also knows Jiang Chenxiu." When I summoned Mr. Huo to intercept and kill you, it happened that Jiang Chenxiu was also there, so I brought it with me by the way. ”
"You're really calculating!" Qingshi shook his head helplessly and said, "What's 'just here to bring it by the way'." It is obvious that you deliberately designed to reveal the news to Jiang Chenxiu and instigated him to intercept and kill me, so that Jiang Chenxiu thought that he was the mastermind, not only spent a lot of money to invite the person surnamed Huo, but also helped you carry the black pot. ”
"Hey, hey! Something like this. ”
Qingshi thought for a while and said, "I know a powerful person......
"Ouch," Xiang An groaned, "That's right, Qingshi! I'm too badly injured, brother, can you give me a healing pill? ”
Qingshi was stunned for a moment, and then understood, "That's right, Qingshi!" That is, I was right to guess that this person was powerful. Qingshi smiled secretly in his heart, and then said, "You still want me to give you the pill?" Go back to your own house and ask your great-grandfather! ”
"Bluestone, you big idiot!" Xiang An scolded urgently: "How can it be my great-ancestor? This matter has nothing to do with the Xiang family, if you don't believe it, kill me. ”
Qingshi knew that he had guessed wrong, and he didn't mind Xiang An's scolding. Xiang Sinian is now the prime minister, but he should not have the idea of usurping the throne, and the Xiang family should not oppose Xuanmen. However, since Xiang An is a member of the Xiang family, the Xiang family is naturally very suspicious, and Qingshi has to confirm whether it is the Xiang family.
This human power is overwhelming, which greatly narrows the scope.
There are not many powerful people, except for the three phases and the four major families, others should not be able to reach it, and now the prime minister of the three prime ministers, Xiang Sinian, is the second prime minister Shen Xiaofeng himself is a member of the four major families, and the last prime minister Xia Yiming is a disciple of the emperor Mo Sihai.
Qingshi was in a daze for a long time, and said slowly: "In the vendetta and disputes in the world, in addition to money and rights, there is also a love word that is the most elusive, and it is not uncommon to hate because of love. Brother Xiang has heard of some of my scandals? ”
"My brother's romance has long become a legend of Tianxuan Academy," Xiang An reluctantly smiled, "Yun girl is like a fairy......"
"Shut up!" Qingshi snorted coldly.
"Yes, yes!" Xiang An secretly stuck out his tongue, thought about it and said, "I remember that when I was in Chaoge, once I went to the Qingshi brothers to pass the decree, and met the two beauties of the Shen family and the Duan family who happened to come out of the Qingshi brothers' private room downstairs in Sanbao. Haha, Miss Duan's affection for her brother is well known to passers-by, and I think the girl of the Shen family is also very affectionate to you, Brother Qingshi is so blessed! ”
Since Xiang An said Shen and Duan's two daughters, it also proves that this matter was not done by Shen Duan's two families. Qingshi was silent for a long time, and then muttered: "I was engaged to someone in the past, and then I retired for some reason, I'm afraid it will hurt other people's faces and hearts!" ”
"I naturally know about this," Xiang An said, "This incident caused a sensation between the two continents at that time, and the two countries broke off diplomatic relations, and they have not interacted with each other since, and I have never seen anyone from the royal family of the Sky Eagle Continent since then, and I have nothing to do with their Shengjia." ”
Qingshi's face became more and more heavy, and after a long time, he said again: "How long has Brother Xiang left Chaoge?" Are all the people in our Xuanmen okay? ”
"It's been more than five years since I left Chaoge!" Xiang An said, "In the vast sea of people, where can I go to find Brother Qingshi?" So I had to come to the Immortal Sword Sect to lurk, and wait for the elder brother to send it to the door by himself. ”
"You haven't answered the second question yet."
"What's the second question?"
There was another long silence. Finally, Qingshi spoke: "I don't believe it! ”
"I said a long time ago that you have the answer, but you just don't want to touch it, so you have to wait until the end to say it, and you still don't believe it." Xiang An said, "That's it, you can't ask anymore, I don't want to die yet!" ”
Qingshi walked silently to the stone platform outside the cave and stood for a long time. In the hazy morning light, the fierce mountain wind blew the golden black iron chains, pushing the chains to touch each other, making a gentle crashing sound, and then passing through the chain holes, making a low whistling.
Xianjian Peak is calm and majestic, towering, like the upright posture of bluestone, and the sea of clouds in the abyss is tumbling and surging, just like the turbulent tide in the heart of bluestone.
Why? Qingshi's heart is crying: I have left Chaoge, I have given up the throne, is this not enough? Do you have to let me die? ......
