Chapter 54: Interception
Xuanqi quickly whipped his horse, and by the evening, he had already gone deep into the Taihang Mountains. www.biquge.info Seeing that the sky was about to darken, but there was a small town in front of him, Xuan Qi immediately hit his horse into the town, preparing to stay in the town for one night.
As soon as I entered the town, I saw a beggar disciple sitting on the side of the street running over in a hurry. Xuan Qi got off the horse, and the beggar disciple reported respectfully. It turned out that the beggar gang disciples secretly escorted Mrs. Hua's mother and son all the way according to Xuan Qi's instructions, but they didn't want to be besieged and killed by a group of masked people just after leaving Yangqu County. Although the beggar gang disciples struggled to save each other, among the eight people in the group, Hua Minglu, who was only six years old, survived, but he was also slapped by the masked man and was seriously injured.
Xuan Qi hurriedly asked where Qinghua Minglu was, but it was only in the town thirty miles ahead. At the moment, it was important to save people, Xuan Qi immediately got on the horse and galloped forward. Half an hour later, Xuan Qi finally arrived in the town, and the beggar disciples who were waiting on the side of the road welcomed Xuan Qi into a ruined temple on the side of the road.
When Xuan Qi entered the room, Hua Minglu was lying on the grass on the ground, but his face was pale and motionless. On the ground on the other side, there were seven corpses, lined up, but among them were Mrs. Hua and Hua Mingyang. The beggar disciples let go of the way, Xuan Qi stepped forward and grabbed Hua Minglu's wrist, and a trace of true qi entered Hua Minglu's body from the vein.
True Qi entered the body, and Xuan Qi couldn't help frowning. Hua Minglu's body is seriously injured, and his internal organs have been bleeding, which should be caused by martial arts similar to black sand palms, I am afraid that even if he saves a life, Hua Minglu will not be able to practice martial arts in this life, and can only live like an ordinary person. Such a young child, but I don't know who can do such a poisonous hand.
At the moment, Xuan Qi took out the jade bottle in his arms, dropped a drop of "Ten Thousand Years Ice and Fire Stone Stalactite" into Hua Minglu's mouth, and used his true qi to help Hua Mingyang dissolve the medicinal power. But for a moment, Hua Mingyang coughed a few times and woke up. Hua Mingyang just woke up, but there was a look of fear in his eyes, he was trembling, and he couldn't say a word, just hugged Xuan Qi, and kept twitching.
Xuan Qi sighed, stretched out his hand and clicked on Hua Minglu's sleeping hole, and Hua Minglu fell asleep. Xuan Qi gently placed Hua Minglu on the grass pile, and learned about the situation from the beggar disciples present.
But it turned out that Mrs. Hua took Hua Mingyang and Hua Minglu, escorted by the old housekeeper and the four disciples of the Hua family, all the way to the east. Last night, Mrs. Hua and her entourage stayed in a small town not far from Yangqu County, and they set off early this morning. After receiving the order of Xuan Qi's escort, the beggar gang disciples caught up with Mrs. Hua and her party at noon and secretly protected them.
Two hours ago, Mrs. Hua and her entourage had just left Yangqu County and entered the depths of Taihang Mountain, but they were unexpectedly intercepted by four black-clothed masked men. The martial arts of these four masked men were extremely high, and when more than ten beggar disciples rushed forward, the four Hua family disciples had already fallen to the ground.
These more than ten beggar gang disciples were not the opponents of the masked people, so they could only be forced to retreat. During this period, Hua Mingyang and the old housekeeper of the Hua family were killed one after another, and Mrs. Hua, who was not weak in her own martial arts, rushed out with Hua Minglu in her arms. But he didn't want one of the masked men to throw a single knife, but it was the back of Mrs. Zhonghua's heart.
The masked man took a few steps forward, but he struck at Hua Minglu, who was crying, with one palm. When Mrs. Hua saw that Aiko was in danger, she desperately grabbed the masked man's feet. The masked man's palm, after all, did not fully exert his strength, but it still swept Hua Minglu's chest.
At this time, the beggar helped the disciples to catch up, and finally snatched Hua Minglu in his hand, and fought and retreated. The four masked men did not pursue, but disappeared into the dense forest without a trace. The beggar disciples had no choice but to send Hua Minglu to this ruined temple and wait for Xuanqi's arrival along the way.
After hearing this, Xuan Qi turned around and went to check on the deceased's injuries. Sure enough, there was a blood hole in the heart of Mrs. Hua after seeing it, and the blood that flowed out had already blocked the wound. And Hua Mingyang was slashed to death with one palm, and the middle palm was at the shoulder of the right chest, but it was already blackened and spread to the rest of the body. Obviously, the masked man with this palm contains poison in his palm. And Xuan Qi knows some poisonous palm techniques in the palm, but like this, it can make the middle palm black, and it can spread to the whole body after death, but he has never even heard of it.
is the same as Hua Mingyang's death, but there are still three people, one is the old housekeeper of the Hua family. Obviously, among the four masked people, the person who used the poisonous palm should be the person with the highest martial arts. And the beggar gang disciples who had fought with the masked men also told Xuan Qi in detail about the blades used by the four of them.
The masked man who made the poisonous palm empty-handed and did not use a blade, the masked man who killed Mrs. Hua made a single knife, and the other two masked people, one of whom also used a single knife, and the other used two water-splitting Emei thorns, which are extremely rare in the rivers and lakes. Most of the people who use the water-dividing Emei thorn live next to the big rivers, such as the Pai Gang of the Yangtze River, there are a lot. Along the Yellow River, only people in Zhujiazhuang in Luoyang use this weapon. From the Yellow River to the north, the use of water-dividing Emei thorns has never been heard of.
Xuanqi immediately asked the disciples of the Beggar Gang to inform the Luoyang and Hongzhou branches of the Beggar Gang, and went to Zhujiazhuang and the Pai Gang Headquarters to inquire about the matter, and strictly investigated whether there were any disciples walking north of the Yellow River. At the same time, let the rudder of various places to the various sects and martial arts families to understand the poisonous palm and other kung fu, especially after the palm, the deceased will be blackened all over the body.
At the same time, Xuan Qi asked the beggar to help the disciples stay, and after collecting the deceased of the Hua family, he sent them back to the Hua family. He took Hua Minglu all the way to the east, wanting to send Hua Minglu to Sun's house for a temporary stay. Xuan Qi thought about it like this, naturally because he was afraid that Hua Shiwu's lone seedling Hua Minglu would return to the Hua family, but there would be unforeseen dangers.
With the injured Hua Minglu, Xuan Qi simply hired a carriage the next day, asked the coachman to slow down, and headed all the way to Jizhou.
And on the second day after getting into the carriage, Hua Minglu finally regained her senses a little, but she still only hugged Xuan Qi, crying non-stop, obviously extremely frightened. It wasn't until the two of them left the Shanxi territory that Hua Minglu began to speak, but she just kept calling her mother and brother.
Xuan Qi asked about Hua Shiwu's poisoning, but Hua Minglu, who was young, couldn't say why. As long as Mrs. Hua and Hua Mingyang were intercepted and killed, Hua Minglu was frightened and speechless. Xuan Qi was very helpless, knowing that Hua Minglu was still young, I was afraid that he really couldn't ask anything, so he had to give up at the moment.
