Miss, I found that some unknown people have been following us from Lin'an City, do you want to send someone to send us away?"

In the night, a lean man in black broke out of the air, flew lightly on the carriage, and inquired through the curtain.

This person is the master from the "Heavenly Burial Peak", Xiao Yang, who is good at light skills.

It is worth mentioning that most of the black-clothed masked people who participated in the rescue of Liu Xunyi tonight came from the three religions of the Western Regions, namely the Heavenly Burial Peak, the Linglong Sea and the Golden Wheel Temple.

Of course, these masters of the Western Regions have no friendship with Liu Xunyi, and taking the risk to save him is just following Xun Qin's orders.

"What?"

In the carriage, Abaolu, who had just healed Liu Xunyi's injuries, was sweating profusely and panting like a cow. Hearing Xiao Yang's reply, Dengshi's face changed, and he wanted to get up with the knife, but his head was dizzy, and his feet were unstable and fell into the carriage with a "poof".

"You are in good spirits, don't move. ”

Xun Qin advised Abaoru not to be impetuous, and asked outside the car, "How many people are there?"

"About one or twenty men, all with swords. Xiao Yang replied, "It seems to be ...... Looking for an opportunity to strike at us. ”

"It's not good!" Abaolu said worriedly, "Could it be someone from the Great Song Dynasty?"

"Maybe, maybe not. "I guess these people aren't coming at us, but ......."

As for this, she cast a meaningful gaze on the dying Liu Xunyi, and said: "No matter where these people are, we have already waded into the troubled waters, and we can only stop them." ”

"What do you mean......"

"Xiao Yang, Xun Budao, and Su Hu led people to set up an ambush, remember to stay alive, I will interrogate them personally. ”

"Understood!"

got Xun Qin's consent, and Xiao Yang, who was gearing up, immediately took the order and left.

More than a dozen carriages continued to move forward as if nothing had happened, and after a while, there was a "sonorous" sound of fighting in the darkness. After a while, Xiao Yang's voice sounded again, but his tone sounded a little excited, and his breath seemed to be unstable.

"Miss, these people are very skilled. We killed half of us, half of us ran away, and caught one alive. ”

"Stop!"

At the sound of an order, more than a dozen carriages slowly stopped in a wood.

When Xun Qin got out of the carriage, twenty or thirty masters of the Western Regions had already lit torches and formed a circle, sweeping away the darkness before dawn.

At this moment, a black-clothed man covered in scars and bloodstains was tied to the ground by Wuhuada, and Xun Budao and Su Hu were standing on the left and right, as long as he struggled slightly, he would immediately be punched and kicked.

Xiao Yang took the torch from the hands of others, led Xun Qin to step forward slowly, and brought the "crackling" flame in front of the person so that Xun Qin could see his face clearly.

Xun Qin looked up and down at the man in black who was covered in disarray, and asked casually, "What's your name?"

"Phew!" the man in black spat out a mouthful of bloody phlegm and scolded, "If you want to kill, kill it, don't think about asking ...... out of my mouth"

"Bang!"

"Forehead ......"

Before the man in black finished speaking, Su Hushi kicked his right rib hard, kicking his rib off, and he bared his teeth in pain and wailed again and again.

"Whatever you ask, we don't want to listen to nonsense. ”

Under the threat of Su Hu's fierce god, the man in black endured the despair in his heart and the pain in his body, and asked rhetorically, "Who are you?" and why ......?"

"Bang!"

"Ah......h

Before he finished speaking, he kicked him in the left rib again, this time mercilessly.

Su Hu pressed the sharp scimitar against the lower body of the man in black, and said expressionlessly: "If you dare to talk nonsense, seeing that Su Hu and the others are ruthless and not like a bluff, Miao Zhi can't help but feel cowardly, and answer truthfully unwillingly, "My name is Miao Zhi......"

"is so greedy for life and afraid of death, it shouldn't be a Jianghu person who licks blood from the knife. Xun Qin observed Miao Zhi's words and deeds, and asked lightly, "Are you from the imperial court?"

"Yes. ”

"Who sent you?"

"This ......" Miao Zhi looked embarrassed, as if he was in a dilemma, "If I say it, even if I escape today, I will die tomorrow without a place to bury......"

Seeing Miao Zhi's vague words, Su Hu couldn't help but have a cold look in his eyes, and he was just about to be ruthless, but he was interrupted by Xun Qin: "Actually, if you don't say it, I can guess that you are from Dongfu." ”

"Hiss!" was revealed by Xun Qin's words, Miao Zhi's eyes changed suddenly, and he subconsciously asked, "How do you know?"

"Dressed in night clothes and armed with blades, a fool can guess that you are coming. Xun Qin said unhurriedly, "Just now in Lin'an City, the privy deputy envoy was assassinated, but you sneakily hid in the shadows and stood by, and then secretly followed us, you don't have to guess and know that you and Xifu are not all the way, otherwise it is impossible to see death without help." ”

"This ......"

"It's not all the way to Xifu, and you are so interested in Liu Xunyi, who else is there besides Dongfu?" Xun Qinmei rolled her eyes, stared directly at Miao Zhi with fluttering eyes, and asked with a smile, "I heard that Dongfu has just suffered a catastrophe, and the officials up and down are all frightened. Therefore, daring to jump out and make trouble at such a time when everyone is in danger must not be an ordinary person. Looking at the Lin'an Imperial Court, it is not more than a handful of people who can do such a fearless big man, and one of them ...... It is precisely the helmsman of your Eastern Mansion, Lord Jia, the 'acting prime minister' who has just gained power, yes or no?"

"Who are you?" Miao Zhi said in surprise, "Looking at your appearance, you shouldn't be from the imperial court, but why do you know so much about the affairs of the imperial court?"

"Count it up...... I am an old friend of you, Lord Jia. Xun Qin joked, "Since he was a waiter in Dongfu, I have been doing things to him...... Extra care. ”

"Old friends?"

"For the sake of Lord Jia's face, I can not kill you, and I can let you go back. Xun Qin didn't give Miao Zhi a chance to ask, and said to himself, "But you have to bring a word to Master Jia for me." ”

"What?"

"If you don't want to be shaved again, you can pick up your tail and be a man in the future, don't take revenge, and don't get carried away. As for this, Xun Qin's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he said word by word, "Also, from today onwards, don't use Liu Xunyi's crooked brain, otherwise the Great Song Emperor will not be able to protect him." ”

"You ......"

"It's not a threat, it's an exhortation. Looking at the panicked, frightened and angry Miao Zhi, Xun Qin took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, personally wiped the blood on his face, and said softly, "Tell Master Jia that if you want to be his prime minister of Dongfu peacefully, don't provoke people you can't afford to offend." ”

"People who can't afford to offend?" Miao Zhi was stunned, "What are you talking about...... Liu Xunyi?"

"It's not Liu Xunyi, is it you?"

Xun Qin cast a meaningful look at the startled Miao Zhi, Ying Ying got up, and walked towards the carriage without looking back.

"Let him go!"

Hearing Xun Qin's order, Su Hu used a knife to pick open the rope on Miao Zhi's body, and then the group got into the carriage and went away quickly.

"These Han people often talk about ancestral teachings such as 'the grace of a drop of water should be reciprocated by a spring', and they 'know the kindness and repay it' and 'think of the source of drinking water' at every turn...... As everyone knows, the most unsympathetic and mercenary people are precisely themselves. On the carriage, Abaolu did not shy away from mocking the sanctimonious Lord Jia, "Liu Xunyi saved his dog's life at Yanmen Pass, but he didn't expect that once he gained power, he would take revenge." ”

"No one is to blame for this, but he is to blame. Xun Xun looked at Liu Xunyi, who was half-dead and in danger, as if answering Abaolu's complaints, and seemed to be talking to himself, "It's not that he can't change his fate, and it's not that he can't achieve a hegemony." In terms of martial arts, talent, and scheming, he does not lose to anyone. is only lacking in temperament, especially the defect of his soft-heartedness, if he does not change every day, it will be difficult to achieve great things in one day. We rescued Qiu Han and Ding Chou from Qin Wei's pursuit, and we wanted to use the two of them to provoke Liu Xunyi's anger, but he still felt compassion for his 'good brother' in the end. This shows that Liu Xunyi's heart is ...... It's too soft. ”

"As the saying goes, 'the country is easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change'. Since you know that Liu Xunyi has a deficient temperament, why did you praise him in front of King Shaoqin, and even did not hesitate to use Da Liao's 'capital' to help him turn over?"

"Because...... He has potential. ”

"What potential?" Abaolu pouted, "Do you really think that Liu Xunyi can become the second Luo Tianjin? Not only does he have nothing now, but he is also burdened with a lot of blood debts......

"That's why we have the opportunity to get close to him. Xun Qin explained, "When he is full-fledged, we want to get close to him...... I'm afraid it will be as difficult as approaching Luo Tianjin in the past. Even if you are reluctant to cooperate, you can't really make friends. ”

"Xun Qin, it's not that I don't believe you, I just ...... Puzzled. Abaolu said entangledly, "What kind of ability does Liu Xunyi have to make you so sure about his future?" I look at it horizontally and vertically, no matter how I look at him, he is less than one-tenth of Luo Tianjin's. What's even more puzzling to me is that King Shaoqin has always been far-sighted and cautious, so why did he accompany you to make mistakes?"

"The Central Plains is far richer than the Western Regions, if the Great Liao wants to recover the power of the Western Regions, it is far from enough to compete with the wealthy and powerful Mongols, and must rely on the power of the Central Plains, which is the 'national policy' set by the King of Shaoqin. Xun Qin looked full of expression, and said with a straight face, "Although the Great Song Dynasty is poor and weak, the Central Plains is still the world of the Han people. For thousands of years, the change of dynasties and ethnic wars have never shaken the rule of the Han people over this land, even if it is as strong as Mongolia, it is necessary to use the Han people to govern the Han land. We should also do the same, if we want to use the power of the Central Plains, we must 'use Han to control Han', just as we cooperated with Luo Tianjin......"

"I understand the truth, and I agree that King Shaoqin's 'national policy' is very clever. However, when you first chose Luo Tianjin, you were very cautious, and you made up your mind after a thousand considerations and considerations. With all due respect, there are many martial arts sects in the Central Plains, even if you don't consider those old foxes who have become a climate, you can only choose one of the rising stars, even if it is the cynical Qin Ku...... are much more secure and reliable than Liu Xunyi. ”

"King Shaoqin chose Liu Xunyi, so naturally there is a reason to choose Liu Xunyi. Facing the eloquent Abaolu, Xun Qin's tone was a little impatient.

"What reason?"

"You ......"

"Miss, there is a woman who fainted on the side of the road. ”

Suddenly, Xiao Yang's reply came from outside the carriage, interrupting the conversation between Xun Qin and Abaolu at an inopportune time.

"If you faint, you will faint, what does it have to do with you?" Abaoru rebuked angrily, "When did your Heavenly Burial Peak become a good hall?"

"This ......"

The carriage passed slowly, without the slightest intention of stopping.

Out of curiosity, Xun Qin lifted the curtain and looked out, his eyes inadvertently swept over the faint roadside, covered with mud girl, just a gust of wind blowing, blowing away the green silk, revealing a delicate and lovely face.

Looking at the familiar woman, Xun Qindai's eyebrows frowned slightly, and after a little recollection, she suddenly realized, and a touch of surprise couldn't help but appear in her eyes.

"Is that her?"

......
