Chapter 224 The Main Cause of Murder

There are dozens of hills in the east of Qiuzhou, the highest of which is no more than 200 meters.

There are Taoist temples and vegetarian halls on the hills.

However, with the decline of the Zuoqiu Taoist lineage a thousand years ago, the influence of these Taoist temples and halls is no longer as great as before. More than half of them are almost abandoned and their popularity has waned.

The eighth day of the Lunar New Year.

The snow stopped!

The first ray of sunlight first shines on Zixia Mountain in the outer city of East City. At Changqing Temple on the mountain, the copper bells hanging on the eaves swing in the wind, making pleasant sounds, and the bells reflect dazzling spots of light.

The morning light shines through the lattice window and falls on the bed in the living room.

Yang Qingxi woke up to the sound of bells and sunlight shining on her face. Her whole body was in pain, there was a strong smell of blood at the tip of her nose, her clothes were sticky, and she was covered with a quilt.

She turned her head slightly to look at Li Weiyi, who was sitting cross-legged below the Bagua diagram about ten feet away.

Closing her eyes again, she said very weakly: "You must keep your word... The Jiuli tribe's healing elixir, the Jiuyao Huisheng Pill, did you give it to me?"

Li Weiyi opened his eyes: "I asked Cangli for it before, he has quite a lot. I'll give you 10,000 Yongquan coins!"

Yang Qingxi said: "Do you think, with the relationship between Sui Zong and Jiuli tribe, I would not know the price of Jiuyao Huisheng Pills? Forget it, ten thousand is ten thousand, I will owe it first..."

She really didn't even have the strength to speak.

He closed his mouth, mobilized the energy in his body, moved it through his veins, and began to heal his wounds.

Li Weiyi's body had a strong ability to recover, and by noon, his injuries had been mostly healed.

After having the vegetarian meal, he returned to the guest hall, took a spoonful of immortal soil, continued to shape his muscles and internal organs, and used the Qi Tempering Technique to temper the magic energy in the fourth sea.

Anyway, the five boxes of Yongquan coins have been recovered, so there is money and medicine.

Naturally, he was focused.

Consolidating cultivation and tempering the body are the top priorities.

In a thrilling situation like last night, fortunately the magic energy of the Fourth Sea was functioning normally. If there was any accident, the consequences would be disastrous.

As for the situation outside, he didn't think it had much to do with him. Those who should worry about it should worry about it themselves.

In the evening, Li Weiyi went to eat vegetarian food again.

When I returned to the room, I saw Yang Qingxi sitting up from the bed in the moonlight outside the window.

Turn on the lights.

Yang Qingxi's injuries have stabilized, and his face was expressionless: "Where is my dragon seed ticket?"

"Do you think that the situation last night could have saved the dragon seed ticket?" Li Weiyi asked.

Yang Qingxi raised her snow-white chin and asked expectantly, "Where's Hua Yuzi? Is she dead?"

"Dead!" Li Weiyi said.

Yang Qingxi leaned his back against the wall, smiled with satisfaction, and reveled in his extraordinary achievement.

During the process of leaning back, the tattered and hardened blood-stained clothes tore the scabby wounds, causing her mouth to twitch in pain: "I thought you should at least change my clothes for me, and then call two maids to help me clean the wounds. Do you know how uncomfortable it is when the blood dries and is completely stuck to the body?"

Li Weiyi was amused. "When we were fighting hard last night, I didn't realize you were such a delicate woman. But I'm sorry, Changqing Temple is full of men, I'm afraid we can't find a maid."

Change her clothes? Less trouble is better.

Being able to save her has been the most I can do.

Yang Qingxi frowned and asked in confusion: "Changqing Temple? Are we in the South City or the North City now?"

Li Weiyi said solemnly, "If we go back to South City, we may run into people from the Far West Ashes. Also, if we run into a martial artist from the Jiuli tribe, I don't mind, but I'm afraid they will tear you into pieces."

"You're right! East City... No one would have thought that we would hide in East City."

Yang Qingxi suddenly showed a touching smile in her eyes: "Li Weiyi, are you a little bit moved by me? Otherwise, why are you worried that I will be killed by the Jiuli tribe martial artists?"

Li Weiyi walked to the bedside and stared at her carefully.

"What are you looking at?" Yang Qingxi asked.

"I wonder if your Six Desire Talisman has taken effect!"

Li Weiyi always remained wary of Yang Qingxi.

This woman is very scheming. After waking up, she deliberately mentioned words like "change her clothes" and "my heart is moved". This is because she is too weak now and needs to use her beauty to stabilize him.

"Okay, now that I'm living under someone else's roof, I need you, Master Li, to protect a weak woman like me. I'm being sentimental. But before my injuries are healed, I won't exchange the Six Desires Talisman with you."

At this moment, Yang Qingxi showed her gentle and affectionate side, very feminine.

Every word can arouse a man's desire to protect.

The Six Desires Talisman is indeed very troublesome at the moment.

Although the nine priests can work together to refine it, who would go the long way when they can use a simpler method? Moreover, the nine priests working together have many uncertainties in themselves.

That is the last resort, when there is absolutely no alternative.

"You are not in a hurry, and neither am I. If it really breaks out, let's see who can't bear it first."

Li Weiyi walked out of the living room and headed towards the bedroom.

After a while, two men in Taoist robes brought a wooden barrel filled with hot water and put on clean green Taoist robes.

After everything was ready, the two men in Taoist robes walked out of the living room, closed the door, and praised in the courtyard outside: "Brother Li, your wife is so beautiful, like the fairy Yunxiao who came down to earth. She has a pure immortal body, right?"

Li Weiyi gave each of them a handful of Yongquan coins and whispered, "She's not my wife, she's my enemy. Remember to keep it a secret!"

"So she's the enemy's wife... uh... I admire you so much!"

After accepting the Yongquan coins, the two said goodbye and left.

Li Weiyi stood under the eaves with his hands behind his back, listening to the sound of bells above his head and gazing at the bright moon in the sky.

Inside the house, the sound of water in the shower could be heard.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

After a while, Yang Qingxi, wearing a loose green Taoist robe and a belt around his slender waist, pushed the door open and walked out.

Her long hair was tied with a wooden hairpin, which made her look elegant and refined, like a Taoist fairy. The scars on her face and neck, set against her jade-like skin, gave her a poignant and delicate look.

"What a peaceful night! I don't know why, but I've never felt as peaceful as I do now. It's as if I'm completely relaxed and don't need to think about anything."

She flew up and landed on the roof, sitting on the edge of the eaves with her two extremely long legs hanging above Li Weiyi.

Looking at the bright moon in the sky and the lights at the foot of the mountain, she smiled charmingly: "Li Weiyi, although we were able to escape here from the eyes and ears of the younger generation of martial artists, we can never escape the insight of the older generation of martial artists. The old man from the Jiuli tribe didn't come to Changqing Temple to look for you? I guess he must be very upset to see me and you together."

Li Weiyi said: "Hiding and finding people are also part of the test. It would be against the rules for the older generation to get involved! Besides, we are not that familiar with each other. Don't act like we are just traveling together just because we live in the same room."

Yang Qingxi said, "What about in the coffin? I didn't think anything of it at the time, but the more I thought about it, the more I felt like I had suffered a great loss. If my future husband's family knew about this, I would definitely not be able to get married."

"I don't recall it, I only know that Yang Qingchan was also in the coffin at that time..."

As soon as he said this, Li Weiyi realized that something was wrong.

The two fell into a long silence.

Li Weiyi flew to the eaves of the house.

Yang Qingxi raised her head and looked at him in the moonlight: "Why, you thought I must be in extreme grief at the moment and wanted to comfort me? Sorry to disappoint you!"

Li Weiyi asked: "Why did Yao Qian want to kill Yang Qingchan?"

Yang Qingxi was not as indifferent as she seemed. Her eyes gradually became moist and she smiled bitterly: "Because you planted the Six Desires Talisman in her... Do you believe it?"

Li Weiyi didn't know how to answer.

She said, "Because she loves the wrong person! Yao Qian is too perfect. The more perfect a person is, the more he wants to pursue the ultimate perfection. I wonder if a man like him can accept that his woman was planted with the Six Desire Talisman by the enemy? If the news leaks out, his reputation as a modest gentleman will be gone."

Li Weiyi said: "I heard that Yao Qian caught the Second Palace Master's eye. With the Second Palace Master's cultivation, it shouldn't be difficult for him to help someone dissolve a Six Desire Talisman!"

"That's exactly the reason!"

Yang Qingxi said, "I learned from the Sect Master that the Second Palace Master intends to arrange a marriage for Yao Qian, and the target is the Jiang family's daughter of extremely noble status. Yao Qian must cut off all previous ties before this can be accomplished. Therefore, Qingchan must die."

"Your action and the Six Desires Talisman in her body were just inducements. They gave Yao Qian a perfect opportunity to put the blame on others, and a reason to convince myself and Qing Chan."

Li Weiyi said: "He wants to kill Yang Qingchan, but he needs to convince her first?"

Yang Qingxi said: "As practitioners, they all want to push the sins onto others, so that they can have clear thoughts and a pure and spotless mind."

Li Weiyi asked, "Sui Sect Master Yang Shenjing also knows the truth?"

Yang Qingxi hesitated this time!

I don't want to tell a stranger who is my enemy, not my friend, about the ugly side of Sui Zong, but for some reason tonight, I just want to confide in him. It seems that if I don't say it out, I will suffocate to death.

She said: "The reason why the Second Palace Master granted Yao Qian's marriage was not only because he saw his potential and ability, but also because he saw the strength of the Sui clan."

"In terms of the strength of the top masters of the Sui Sect, it is indeed still very weak, not as strong as the tens of millions of sects."

"However, the Sui clan controls half of the Lingxiao habitat's water transportation lifeline. Along the seven states that the Sui River flows through, its influence can reach dozens of states. Its business is spread all over the world, and it is involved in all walks of life. In terms of grassroots personnel and intelligence, it can definitely be compared with tens of millions of clans."

"Who wouldn't want to be under the command of such a force?"

"By granting Yao Qian a marriage, the Second Palace Master will be able to find a powerful backer for Emperor Suizong in the court, so that he can quickly integrate into their system instead of being attacked and excluded by various forces within the court."

"This is what both Emperor Suizong and the Second Palace Master want to see."

"So in the face of the future of the sect, Qingchan's death is nothing. The sect leader can only turn a blind eye."

Li Weiyi asked, "Who is the Jiang family's legitimate daughter you just mentioned?"

"Who else could it be except Jiang Ning?" Yang Qingxi asked.
