Chapter 19: Danger is Imminent
Early in the morning, the sun is shining.
Such good weather seems to indicate that something is going to happen today.
At the entrance of Lijia Village, a fat man was helped off the horse by everyone. Just as the fat man dismounted, the hooves of the horse under his crotch trembled, as if they were a lot more relaxed.
The big ball of meat rolled forward: "What's going on?"
"Elder Qiu, we've been stopped!" the guard bowed forward.
"What? Who is so bold?"
This year, the time to collect the offering has come again, since Qiu Siren died, this Lijia Village has been under the name of a descendant elder of Qiujiabao.
"They said that the law enforcement team did not let us enter the village. ”
The guard's words made the fat man confused: "What kind of bullshit law enforcement team! This is Qiujiabao's territory, which force's law enforcement team dares to come here to spread wildness? Come with me to see!"
The fat man came to the entrance of the village with a group of guards, and saw two people standing at the entrance of the village, these two people hung long swords on their waists, dressed in black, and embroidered with a Qin character on their chests, and these two people seemed to have seen them somewhere.
"It's really strange, this is Qiujiabao's territory, and I haven't heard of a force surnamed Qin in this vicinity?
"Two young heroes, what kind of sect are you?"
"We are the personal guards of the Qin City Lord, and no one is allowed to enter this Lijia Village without the orders of the City Lord. The two of them laughed.
These two people are Xiaohuzi and another member of the law enforcement team, and the first time they were called Shaoxia by others, the two were inevitably a little unaccustomed, so they couldn't help laughing.
"Then I can invite your city lord to come out and see, I am the outer gate steward of Qiujiabao. ”
In this Lijia Village, people from other forces still occasionally pass by, and they just stop to rest.
"The lord of the city has already informed us! One of the black-clothed teenagers said.
"What a disappointment! Lord Qiu Jiabao!" At this moment, a cold voice came, and the fat man who heard this voice was cold.
When I turned my head, I saw a young man walking briskly with seven or eight followers. The people who came also felt familiar, but they couldn't remember where they had seen it.
Suddenly, the fat man seemed to remember something: "You are Qin Sheng, aren't you dead, why are you still alive?"
"Why does the old thief Qingzhu say that I am dead? If you Qiu Jiabao don't destroy me, how can Qin Sheng die?"
Qin Sheng recalled Qiu Jiabao's evil deeds, and his eyes were about to burst into flames.
"Bold! You traitor to Qiujiabao, I will get rid of you today, if you hand over your head to the castle master, hahahaha......"
Thinking of the reward that Qiu Qianqi might give, the fat man couldn't help laughing.
Speaking of this new steward, he is practicing the Qi realm, but he has done a steward and wasted his cultivation, although it is more than enough to deal with ordinary people in this way, but he forgot a sentence, Shibei should be impressed in three days.
"Zheng ......"
The fat man casually drew the long sword at his waist.
"My eyelids jumped this morning, I didn't expect that I, Qiu someone, was going to make a fortune today, and I will accept your head. ”
"Boss Qiu, kill him and go back to the reward given by the castle master, don't forget the little ones!"
"Of course! I'm in for a treat tonight!"
The fat man's face was proud, as if Qin Sheng's head was already in his hand.
Qin Sheng's face was calm, and his eyes looked coldly at the fat man in front of him: "Sister Shanshan, you can rest in peace!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Sheng made a move.
The fat man saw only a flash of white light, and when he rolled his eyes, he found his body standing in the distance, and the other guards had their eyes full of horror.
With the blessing of the Light Crystal, Qin Sheng's sword technique was a lot more agile, and his speed was much faster than that of ordinary Qi Cultivation Realm cultivators.
Qin Sheng waved his right hand and said coldly: "Kill them all!"
The law enforcement team has been practicing the same trick every day for a month, and at this time, there is finally a chance to try their skills, and they are struggling to draw their swords one by one. Before the guards brought by Qiu Siren could react, some of them were hit by seven or eight swords.
......
On the main hall of Qiu Jiabao, Qiu Qianqi fell into deep contemplation after listening to the report of his subordinates.
None of the groups of people sent out to collect the offerings in the past few days have returned, and most of them are descendants of the Qiu family.
Qiu Qianqi faintly felt that something was not right, and his constricted brows had a premonition that something was happening.
"Castle Master, what do you have to worry about? With the strength of our Qiu Jiabao, who would dare to pull teeth out of a tiger's mouth?" said a middle-aged man under the main hall.
This middle-aged man was the new chief of the guard, and it was this person who took Li Ming's place after the previous chief of the guard, Li Ming, was killed by Qin Sheng.
Qiu Qianqi is different from these short-sighted people, he knows Qiu Jiabao's strength, and some other people are not even worthy of being a follower. In the eyes of those true sectarians, this Qiu Jiabao is not as many people as there are people cooking in a kitchen. In that distant place, even the masters of the Fifth Realm can only bow their heads and be people. This is also the reason why Qiu Qianqi has not expanded the strength of Qiujiabao all these years, here Qiu Qianqi is the owner of the castle, if he goes to other places, he is afraid that he is not as good as the outer disciples of Qiujiabao today.
"Castle Master?"
The middle-aged man looked at Qiu Qianqiu and lowered his head in contemplation, and couldn't help but scream again.
"I know! Zhu Lao, please take a trip to this matter! Start with the villages of these disappeared people one by one. Qiu Qianqi's last sentence was said to the people who sat down in Qingzhushan.
The original cultivation of this Qingzhushan person was on par with Qiu Qian's. Since losing a leg in the Nightmare Forest, his strength has been greatly reduced, and he has become a veritable second-in-command of Qiu Jiabao, and he is also obedient to Qiu Qianqi's words.
"Send someone to report to me immediately if there is any progress, I want to see who dares to touch my Qiu Jiabao. ”
......
Qin Sheng of Lijia Village sat in the house, and the members of the law enforcement team were there.
"Has Yang Zhan's actions in the past few days left any traces?"
Qin Sheng turned his head to glance at Yang Zhan, Yang Zhan shook his head: "No, everything was done according to your orders, and everything was intercepted halfway." ”
"Well, even so, Qiujiabao should also be aware of it. I haven't been acting in the past few days, everyone is cultivating with peace of mind, I think they should be investigated by us soon. ”
Qin Sheng knew that the more he got to the end, the more careful he became, and if he made a mistake, he would lose everything. If the rumors leaked out of Qiujiabao's people rushed up, it would be a catastrophe for the current strength of Lijiacun.
From the beginning, Qin Sheng had planned to weaken Qiujiabao's strength little by little. The first person who came out to collect the offering, and then the person who came out to investigate. waited until the end to be Qiu Qian's culprit.
Qiu Jiabao should be led by a disciple of the lineage. The strength of the investigation should not be weak, so only a few elders in the sect came out with the inner disciples to investigate. All this was expected by Qin Sheng, and Qiu Qianqi was being isolated step by step. All you have to do now is wait for the enemy to come to your door.
The people of Qingzhu Mountain searched for several days with two elders, but they found nothing but corpses. All of them were intercepted and killed halfway, and all of them died under the sword, judging from the fighting situation at the scene, the enemy was not weak.
"Calculate it, only this Lijia Village has not been investigated, this was the place where Qiu Siren was in charge before. ”
Thinking of Qiu Siren, the people of Qingzhushan inevitably thought of Qin Sheng: "It's a pity that sword! If it weren't for that sword, I wouldn't have lost this leg." ”
Tomorrow we will go to Lijia Village. This is the last place, and if there are no clues here, I'll see how you explain to the castle master. ”
"Yes!" all the inner disciples replied in unison.
