Chapter 118 Talking about Heroes
Qi Shaoshang, known in Jianghu as the "Nine-appearing Dragon".
He was originally from a noble family. If everything had gone smoothly, he might have entered the court and become a wise and virtuous official. But unfortunately, the court was in power with treacherous officials, and his family was harmed by this. He was too young to protect himself, so he could only become a commoner and began to wander around the world at the age of thirteen.
Perhaps it was God's pity that he was not destined to be like this, but in just a dozen years, he managed to achieve success in this huge world that others could not achieve in several lifetimes.
However, he never forgot his original intention. No matter how the parties tempted him with benefits or forced him with power, he never bowed his head and only walked on the path he chose.
It was also a coincidence that Tie Shou met Qi Shao Shang.
He and Zhui Ming were investigating a secret case together. During the process, they accidentally lost a wanted criminal. They thought that the criminal would disappear into the sea, but when they followed the trail for less than two miles, they saw the wanted criminal being held to the ground by a man with a sword at his neck, unable to move.
Zhui Ming recognized this man; he was none other than Qi Shaoshang, the Nine-Manifesting Divine Dragon.
The three of them were of the same mind, and everyone knew how talented Mr. Qi was, so it was natural for them to team up.
Fortunately, Qi Shaoshang and I were traveling together, otherwise a witness behind us would have been in danger of his life - he was so panicked that he ran into the Huinuo City, and this man had a grudge against the little girl Xiaomei in the Huinuo City, so he almost died on the spot!
Fortunately, the three arrived in time, and Qi Shaoshang attracted Xi Honglei's hatred, so they were able to save the person at great risk.
However, Iron Hand and Zhui Ming are not rigid and inflexible people. This witness was not a good person to begin with. They only pursued him here for the letter he was carrying in his arms as a way out. Now that the letter has been obtained and the confession has been recorded, what about this man...
The two men looked at each other, pushed the person back, and said that they would let Miss Xiaomei deal with it, but they needed to take the other person away.
The other person was naturally Qi Shaoshang who came to the door.
The old grudges between Xi Honglei and Qi Shaoshang could not be explained away in a few words. Naturally, she wanted to keep Qi Shaoshang here, but although the city of Huinuo was difficult to attack, it was not impossible to conquer.
Tie Shou and Zhui Ming were officials appointed by the imperial court. Qi Shaoshang was traveling with them, most likely because he was involved in some big lawsuit. If she forced them to stay, she might offend these two people...
Forget it, let him go today!
Only then did Qi Shaoshang leave Huinuo City safely.
There is no need to elaborate on what happened later. With the help of Qi Shaoshang, the secret case investigated by the two Iron Hands was soon solved.
During this period, something unexpected happened.
During the secret investigation, they encountered a team of Xixia masters dressed in disguise. When they tried to test them, they missed the flaw and the two sides started a life-and-death battle.
In the end, it was the three of them who were more skilled than the others and they slew all of the Xixia masters who had infiltrated the Song Dynasty for some unknown purpose.
Iron Hand and his men naturally wanted to leave a few people alive, but these people saw that they could not defeat them and could not escape, so they bit the poison in their mouths and committed suicide.
The three of them looked at each other, their faces heavy.
During the evening break, Qi Shaoshang was wiping his sword as usual, Tie Shou and Zhui Ming were grilling meat while one was holding a machine box and thinking about something.
Suddenly, there was a crisp sound in my ears.
The two looked in the direction of the sound and found that Qi Shaoshang's sword was broken. He himself was also very surprised.
It was probably injured while fighting with those people during the day.
Qi Shaoshang looked at the broken sword for a few breaths, then sighed and picked it up.
It seems that this sword has some special meaning to him.
Zhui Ming was about to say a few words to comfort him when he saw Qi Shaoshang's expression suddenly became serious. He picked up the broken sword handle, shook it, and a letter fell out of it.
The contents of the letter... After reading it, Qi Shaoshang decided on the spot to hand the letter to Tieshou and Zhui Ming to take it back to Bian Jing, while he would secretly investigate the origin and purpose of that team of Xixia masters.
So the three of them said goodbye that night and rode as fast as they could.
Wuqing unfolded the letter and read it. The content of the letter shocked the whole government and the public. It was solid evidence that Fu Zongshu was colluding with the enemy and betraying the country.
Tarona took a look, then looked away indifferently, and continued to extract the mixed aura from her hands.
This letter came at the wrong time, too late. Even without this letter, Fu Zongshu would have been dead.
Zhao Kuangyin shared the mind-reading skill of Grand Duchess Rose. The darker and more shameful the inner thoughts were, the more obvious and clear they were.
After only attending court once, Zhao Kuangyin heard clearly that several people below wanted to rebel.
He laughed in anger again, and after the court session, he beat Zhao Ji again.
This garbage!
It is really eye-opening to see that an emperor could achieve such a level!
Anyone could dare to rebel against him, why didn't he die earlier and make way for Zhao Kai!
What sin had the Zhao family committed to give birth to such a useless waste!
As for Cai Jing and Fu Zongshu, these parasites who colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country, Zhao Kuangyin had already thought of a way for them to die. He did not stay in the underworld for so long in vain. He had many cruel ways to make them experience what it meant to be worse than death!
However, there is never too much evidence, and this letter has its use, which is to make Fu Zongshu and his party die faster.
The box contained not only evidence of Fu Zongshu's crimes, but also evidence of the crimes of high-ranking officials planted by Cai Jing in the Ministry of War and at the border. All of them held important positions, but were secretly traitors to the country.
Tie Shou and Zhui Ming gritted their teeth during the investigation and wanted to kill the people immediately to pay tribute to the innocent people who died because of them, but they finally held back and escorted the evidence forged with blood and tears all the way to the capital.
They are lucky, and so are the evidence.
The person sitting on the dragon throne now is the decisive and murderous Taizu Gaohuangdi Zhao Kuangyin, not the incompetent Song Huizong Zhao Ji who would not listen to the people's cries.
They will do what they are supposed to do.
No one on this can escape.
They will definitely die!
There was no time to waste, so Wuqing ordered Zhui Ming to go to the Ministry of War right away and hand over the evidence to his uncle, who would report it to His Majesty Taizu.
Zhui Ming was still a little dazed. When he heard that the current emperor was the long-deceased Emperor Taizu Gao, he felt as if he had not woken up yet.
With the evidence of how he and Iron Hand had protected each other with their lives stuffed in his hand, Mr. Cui blinked, went upstairs to the Ministry of War in a daze, and seemed to be shocked to accept it, but in fact he had not yet come to his senses.
Tie Shou was not much to be outdone. He looked at his senior brother who spoke calmly, then at his junior brother who nodded at him with his hands folded, and then at Master Fang Xiaohou who was still sitting on the roof and refused to come down.
Iron Hand:……
He let out a long breath and sat down slowly as if he was falling into a dream. He thought with a dizzy feeling: My uncle is right. The world is so big and full of strange things. As long as people live long enough, they can really see all kinds of strange things.
Who hasn't thought about the appearance of their ancestors?
But if this ancestor really appeared in spirit, which of his descendants who were bowing down to him would not be dumbfounded and terrified?
This is probably another true portrayal of Ye Gong's love of dragons.
His Majesty the Emperor Taizu Gao...
Tieshou slowly clenched his fists on his knees, his eyes warmed up. He recalled the people who had died tragically at the hands of the Western Xia and Liao Kingdom, and the anger and pain he felt when he wanted to save people countless times but couldn't...
At this moment, he had only one thought in his mind -
Great! The Song Dynasty is finally saved!
…
It is a delicate job to completely separate two auras that do not belong to the same world.
It took Tarona a whole afternoon to separate this mixed and almost fused aura.
After separation, the difference between the two auras became obvious.
Feng Jiang wanted to run a hundred or eighty miles away immediately.
Wuqing and the others had been called away by Zhuge Zhengwo. Zhao Kuangyin was furious after reading the evidence. He not only summoned the Four Famous Constables, but also Bai Choufei, who had just been free. He seemed to want to give those people a hell of a health care.
As a hell of a joke, humans have endless inspiration for torturing their own kind.
Once this major case is over, Bai Choufei's name will probably be included in the list of the most cruel officials in all dynasties.
How is this not considered a way to leave your name in history?
As long as Zhao Kai can do those things, Bai Choufei will be the most successful and cruel official in history.
Tarona told these words to Feng Jiang, who was the only listener here.
Feng Jiang's eyes welled up with tears after hearing this, and he immediately decided to avoid Bai Choufei from now on.
After listening to his thoughts, the Great Witch nodded with satisfaction, took back what she had not yet said, and let him go.
This magical herb is the most idle one in the capital city. He does nothing every day and wanders around here and there. He also communicates with the flowers and plants in the capital and learns a lot of secrets, gradually revealing his curious and gossipy nature.
I chatted with Yang Wuxie some time ago and learned a lot of underworld secrets. I don't know what's going on in his mind, but he actually became interested in whether Bai Choufei really had a mole on his body and even planned to peek at him bathing at night.
After hearing his inner voice, Tarona was shocked and looked at him for a long time with a look that said "So you are this kind of grass".
Who would peek at someone taking a bath just to find out if they have a mole? You are not someone like Yang Wuxie who needs to collect intelligence from everyone!
So humans and grass really do have different brain circuits, right?
The Great Witch turned her hand and accurately grabbed Feng Jiang, who was about to give it a try, and brought back the magical herb that had gone to the wrong place out of curiosity.
Bai Choufei is a martial arts expert and a very vigilant person. How can he, a grass whose abilities except for its speed are almost blocked, guarantee that he will not be discovered when he peeks at others?
Stop thinking about it right now. They have serious work to do the next day, not the kind of idle person like you who plays with cats and walks dogs.
However, curiosity can kill cats, and the same is true for grass. So how can we kill the curiosity of a magical grass? This is a question.
Tarona observed the windfall for two days and finally saw the guy's great weakness.
——He is timid.
It's good to be timid.
The Great Witch let him go immediately and asked Wuqing, who was about to go to the Six Gates to get some documents, to take the grass with him, and she would definitely let him see the death cell of the Six Gates.
Wuqing was a little confused, but did it anyway.
The effect is significant and immediate.
Bai Choufei was no longer worried about being spied on, and his curiosity about Feng Jiang showing up was also suppressed. This was a win-win situation for both sides.
Seeing that Feng Jiang had become completely obedient, Tarona stopped scaring him.
She stuffed the two separated auras into the magic music box. The vast space inside was enough for them to spin around, but they could not touch each other.
She waved to Feng Jiang, who was still shivering on the roof, "Come here, let me take a look."
Fengjiang hesitated for a while, but finally came over.
The immortal stretched out his hand to him, and he immediately handed over one hand. The cold but irresistible force moved very quickly through his meridians, as if it was exploring something.
In the blink of an eye, the immortal released his hand and said, "You are recovering well."
After that, he gave him another elixir and said, "Take another one and your injury will be healed."
Hearing this, Feng Jiang took the elixir with great joy. Just as he was about to thank the immortal, he heard the immortal say, "When your injury is healed, you must accompany me for a journey."
Feng Jiang was puzzled: "Excuse me, immortal, where are you going?"
Do you still want him to accompany you?
What use could a low-level Fengjiang grass have? Could it be that immortals would also worry about having inner demons?
As soon as this idea came into his mind, Feng Jiang quickly dispelled it.
How can an immortal have a demon in his heart?
No matter how you look at this immortal, he doesn't seem like someone who would have any inner demons. I'm afraid that any inner demons would be frightened by the immortal's power and flee.
The immortal just smiled at him meaningfully, then patted his head as if he were treating an ignorant child and let him go play.
For some reason, Feng Jiang felt very uneasy when he saw this smile.
What was going on? Why did he have such a bad feeling?
Tarona watched Xiancao leave with a confused mind, waved her hand to brush away the box debris on the chessboard, and continued to play her unfinished game.
When the black pieces had devoured most of the white pieces, Theseus finally responded: "Ms. Ta, the search is complete."
As soon as the two auras were separated, Tarona took one strand each and gave it to her partner to check to see what the two auras were.
One is an evil spirit from the same world as Feng Jiang, and this is the one who makes Feng Jiang tremble.
As the name suggests, evil spirits can be directly understood as evil spirits, born evil, and can never be reversed. They feed on spirit stones, spirit power, and spirit bodies. As long as there is a spirit in it, it is their food.
In their eyes, plant elves like Fengjiang, who were born and raised naturally, were the most premium delicacies and they would not trade them for anything.
Therefore, even if it was just a ball of air, when it sensed Feng Jiang's presence, it would pounce towards him without caring about anything else like a hungry tiger pouncing on its food.
As for the evil spirits, they are the natural enemies of the plant spirits like Feng Jiang. Many plant spirits don't even have the ability to resist, and Feng Jiang has just taken on a human form, so how can he not be afraid?
The other breath felt like meeting an acquaintance.
It is the [Flower of Evil].
Tarona encountered this once, and it was quite funny to say that it was the easiest mission she had ever performed.
The anomaly [Flower of Evil] is very dramatic. Similar to [Eye of Daji], it has two strains, [evil] and [good]. The difference is that its [good] and [evil] will not be separated, and only one will be presented at a time.
When the person possessed by the [Flower of Evil] is a good person, the strain it presents is [evil nature]. Within half a year, the possessed person can be transformed into an evil person with the same nature as the strain.
When the person possessed by the [Flower of Evil] is an evil person, the opposite is true.
No matter how kind the good guys are, no matter how evil the bad guys are, no matter how firm their wills are, they will definitely turn against Tian Gang within half a year.
The only way to restore the past is to uproot the "Flower of Evil" from their brains.
This is also a very delicate job, because the roots of the "Flower of Evil" will penetrate deeply into the brain of the possessed person in just one day, attaching to every nerve. As long as there is the slightest deviation, the person will suffer brain death.
The last time he encountered the [Flower of Evil], Tarona did not have to consider the issue of the possessed person's brain death, because the person possessed by the [Flower of Evil] was Xiao Chou.
In nine months, he became a kind-hearted man who was more worthy of praise than Superman.
Such a change was so noticeable that Tarona, who had just landed less than two hours ago, discovered the exact location of the abnormality.
If it wasn't for the anomaly that had to be taken away from the mission world, she wouldn't even want to take the [Flower of Evil] away. That's Xiao Chou, is there any flowerpot more amazing than him?
Of course, the Great Witch had no experience in uprooting the [Flower of Evil], so the death of the Little Ugly Brain was inevitable.
The tower staff expressed their deep regret and took 0.01 seconds to observe a moment of silence for the unfortunate Mr. Ugly.
It would be more perfect if the corners of her mouth weren't so raised.
As for why the "Flower of Evil" is given such a name, whether a good person becomes an evil person, or an evil person becomes a good person, in the final analysis it is an unprovoked disaster and a murderous misfortune. How can this not be a kind of evil?
The [Flower of Evil] will only hide in the body of the possessed person for one year. Once the one-year period is up, it will bloom.
The possessed person is the flowerpot and the nutrient soil.
Once the flowers bloom, the pots and nutrient soil are of no use.
They will turn into flying blood mist, and be blown away by the wind, spreading across the country and sinking into the invisible void, without leaving any trace.
The blooming [Flower of Evil] wantonly stretches out its flowers and leaves that have been bathed in boiling blood, and invades the ground where it has taken root faster than the spread of spores. One flower is a sea of flowers.
Countless flower seedlings grow from the roots buried underground. The rich fragrance of the flowers is the best attractant. Any living thing will be attracted by the fragrance and walk towards them like zombies.
Then, turn into new flower pots and nutrient soil.
This cycle repeats itself over and over again until the entire world is conquered and the world itself is turned into a flower pot and nutrient soil.
Plant life is very difficult to kill completely. As long as a little bit of root system and spores are left, it can continue to reproduce endlessly, like an endless tide that can never be destroyed.
[Flower of Evil] This type of plant-type anomaly only has a simple mode and a hell mode, and there is no buffer zone in the middle.
Before it blooms, it is very easy to clean up, and the only person it harms is the possessed person; after it blooms, it can devour a city in even the blink of an eye, and you must use all your strength to kill it at this time.
The world consciousness is a headache, and the cadres are even more troubled.
Bang!
The scarlet beauty looked sullen as she placed the last black piece, and the white piece was doomed to failure.
There are two anomalies, but only one needs to be paid attention to, the Flower of Evil.
There is no need to think about the evil spirits, just kill them directly.
[So, it is the [Flower of Evil] that is devouring the evil spirits.] Theseus sorted out the abnormal data and screened out the bad options from the massive reports. [So which one marked Iron Hand?]
Tarona was sorting out the chess pieces. She no longer had any interest in playing chess. "It's the Flower of Evil. I've smelled the scent on Iron Hand."
It's on Xiao Chou.
At that time, she entered the mission world in her true form, and her sense of smell was not as strong as that of the [Grand Duchess of Rose]. In addition, the industrial smell in Gotan was too strong, and Xiao Chou was always painting his body with paint and dye. Those pungent smells had long been integrated into his flesh and blood, and the fragrance of the [Flower of Evil] was naturally covered up.
Tie Shou is different. He doesn't use makeup and is a very clean person. There is no other smell on his body, so the scent of "Flower of Evil" is particularly obvious.
What made Tarona hungry was not the iron hand, but the owner of the fragrance.
——Compared to humans, the more powerful [Flower of Evil] is obviously more to the taste of [Grand Duchess Rose].
The Great Witch couldn't get over the mental barrier of eating humans. Even if it was just drinking some blood, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
But eating abnormally...
Theseus reminded at the right time: [Abnormality is not something you can eat casually. ]
It depends on whether the [Flower of Evil] in this world is a kind of good plant or a kind of evil plant. The former must be sent back to the original world, while the latter can be dealt with on the spot by the officers.
Tarona said: "It doesn't smell like a good strain."
The benevolent species is non-aggressive. From the time it hides to the time it blooms, it doesn't even think of surfacing to absorb other nutrients.
Only the malignant strain will consciously seek other nutrients during the period of hiding. Even if it cannot break free from the possession of the person and move freely, it will mark the "nutrients" of the mind for later search.
Too far away?
Don't worry, the wind will bring the scent it releases, and the earth will retain the message it has marked.
Theseus flipped through the report on the "Flower of Evil" that he had obtained. The officers of the Space-Time Balance Bureau were all excellent. So far, there had been no failures in the case of this anomaly. In all of them, the anomaly was removed before it bloomed, causing the possessed person to die brain-death. That was one of them - his partner.
so--
[How do you know that the malignant strains will mark their prey? ]
The witch smiled and said something creepy in her usual tone: "I have raised similar magical plants before. Plants have similar habits."
Magic plants are the same as food ingredients. As long as they are useful, they are magic plants. You can pick them up and plant them. Only those that cannot be used at all or are extremely ferocious will be destroyed by magic and recorded in textbooks to prevent novices from being fooled.
The more bizarre and strange the magical plant is, the more unspeakable its medicinal use is.
As a master of forbidden techniques, the magic plants grown by Tarona were not only bizarre, but also a riot of magic. If any one of them ran away, it would be enough to make a newbie scream.
Theseus: ...
Theseus silently recorded this in the new document and symbolically put a question mark at the end.
He still believed in his partner's experience, but to ensure rigor, he still put a question mark.
The two anomalies have been confirmed, and Tarona is half relieved. The other half is that he is still not sure who the [Flower of Evil] has possessed.
Since it is a malignant strain, who will be the unlucky one possessed by it?
Theseus asked: [Could it be Qi Shaoshang? ]
Zhui Ming didn't have any scent on him, so he could be ruled out. Then the other people that Tie Shou had come into contact with became very suspicious, the first of whom was Qi Shaoshang, who had been traveling with them for a while.
Moreover, the letter that was tainted with that aura was the one that Qi Shaoshang handed to Tie Shou and Zhui Ming.
From this perspective, Qi Shaoshang is very likely.
Tarona shook his head and denied it, saying firmly: [It's not him.]
It is impossible for Tie Shou and Zhui Ming to have misjudged someone. If one of them had misjudged him, could both of them have misjudged him?
They thought highly of Qi Shaoshang, and Zhui Ming was even willing to drink his treasured wine with him.
Qi Shaoshang is a good man.
Theseus didn't get the point his partner was trying to make: [So?]
"Anyone who is possessed by the [Flower of Evil] for half a year will undergo a transformation."
This change cannot be changed by any will, it is as natural as the rising and setting of the sun.
After picking up the chess pieces, Tarona stood up from the stone bench and gently smoothed the red lace trim that was blown by the wind.
She said: "The abnormal came into this world before us, and six months have passed since we came into this world."
But Qi Shaoshang is still a good person, so it’s not him.
Theseus suddenly realized, and then found a new clue: [In this case, both Tie Shou and Qi Shao Shang were marked, so the letter Qi Shao Shang gave to Tie Shou was tainted with an unusual aura - have they met the same person? ]
Tarona was noncommittal: "It's possible."
There are many good people in the world, and using the process of elimination is undoubtedly like finding a needle in a haystack. However, adding an adjective before the word "good" makes it much easier to eliminate them.
first--
Go and bring Qi Shaoshang back so that he and Tieshou can recall together who they have met in the past two months.
…
Cangzhou of the Song Dynasty.
This place is located on the border between Liao and Song, and is a place of exile for criminals. There has been a long-term military confrontation and frequent wars here, and small groups of foreign tribes often invade and plunder.
The people here are suffering terribly. Many families cannot survive and have to migrate to the interior with their families. Even if they become slaves, it is better than being slaughtered like livestock by foreigners here.
Ask where the Song army is?
Haha, why would those noble officials care about the lives of lowly farmers like them?
If someone asked them why they didn't rescue them, they would just say that this place was vast and sparsely populated, the news could not be delivered in time, and by the time the army arrived, people had already died everywhere. The murderous foreigners had long disappeared, and they couldn't let them escape from the border of the Song Dynasty and chase them.
As the responsibility was shunned, no one cared. The border area, which was already sparsely populated, was even less populated. Nine out of ten villages were deserted, and the remaining villages were mostly populated by the elderly, the weak, women and children who could not walk.
The soil and water in Cangzhou were not suitable for farming, and people often got nothing after working hard for a year. Therefore, most people here were martial artists, either hunting or doing business as escorts, just to make a living.
Lianyunzhai is located in Cangzhou.
Looking around, all you can see is desolation. Perhaps you can only see a dilapidated house every ten miles. But in this desolation, there is a city rising from the ground. At first glance, it is quite shocking.
The village was well-planned and had both offensive and defensive capabilities. It was obvious that it had suffered losses in the past, so the defense was very tight. In addition, there was no clear space nearby, so any movement would not escape the eyes of the lookouts.
But what if the visitor came directly from heaven?
The scarlet beauty descended from the sky and landed lightly above the village, her sharp high heels stepping on the invisible air. Misty roses that seemed like mist surrounded her body, blocking the scorching sunset glow.
The Grand Duchess is not afraid of the sun, but she doesn't like its scorching light either.
Before leaving, she specifically asked Tieshou which direction Qi Shaoshang had gone.
After thinking carefully, Tie Shou told Qi Shao the direction of his business.
Just as Scarlet Beauty was about to clear the space to head in that direction, Wuqing, who was writing at his desk, said, "I'm afraid he will go back to Lianyun Village."
The Xixia masters were a team of Xixia masters dressed in disguise and were going to sneak into the Song Dynasty.
Being able to fight back and forth with the three Iron Hands requires more than just a high level of martial arts skills. Seeing that he could not defeat the enemy and could not escape, he immediately committed suicide by taking poison, which shows that he was well-trained.
Such a group of people cannot be commanded by just anyone. The master behind them must be a well-known person, and may even be a member of the Li family.
Qi Shaoshang could also think of this.
If he went to investigate alone, he would undoubtedly be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth. If something unexpected happened, he would not even have anyone to support him, let alone send out the intelligence.
So he will definitely go back to Lianyun Village first.
There is no need to elaborate on the relationship between the people of Lianyun Village and Qi Shaoshang. They will definitely persuade their leader to take a long-term view and at least have a retreat plan.
Everyone has their own national hatred and family grudges. Qi Shaoshang's actions are for the sake of national justice, not for the emperor who can't distinguish right from wrong on the throne. We must investigate. There will be no open opposition in Lianyun Village, but we must save our lives. We can't go there and lose our lives.
We are all brothers, and if we have to watch our brothers take risks, who can sit back and watch with a clear conscience?
What's more, Qi Shaoshang was going to Western Xia, where he was unfamiliar with the place. It was not like in the Song Dynasty where he had familiar people to support and help him.
Even if they had come up with a rough plan, Qi Shaoshang couldn't move so quickly.
Tarona asked curiously, "Why?"
Wuqing smiled and explained in detail.
Qi Shaoshang is not the only chivalrous person in Cangzhou. After learning about this, apart from the people from Lianyun Village, there must be more than one person traveling with him, and it will take some time to reconcile all of them.
Just like Xihonglei.
This is a remarkable woman. In the past, she was able to assassinate Zhu Lang for the suffering people. Now, naturally, she can also go deep into Western Xia to conduct secret investigations for the people of the world.
As for her and Qi Shaoshang, it would have been fine if they had not met, but now that they had met... Feelings are the most important thing that cannot be calculated, because the more you calculate, the more unclear it becomes. Moreover, the relationship between Qi Shaoshang and Xi Honglei cannot be explained simply by the word "feelings".
He can't walk that fast.
Tarona nodded and changed direction.
Just as she stepped into the space crack, she turned around and looked at Wuqing who was watching her leave, with a smile in her eyes: "My little Yayu, I didn't expect you to be so insightful about emotional matters. This is good, and I don't have to worry about you suffering from love in the future."
Before she finished her words, she saw Wuqing's ears suddenly turn red.
Without waiting for Wuqing to stammer and refute, the Great Witch laughed and stepped into the space rift, looking like a rogue who was going to run away after teasing someone.
Tarona was in a good mood because he played with the children before coming.
Just as Wuqing said, Qi Shaoshang was still in Lianyun Village, but he had already packed his bags and seemed to be preparing to leave at dawn the next day.
There are many new faces in Lianyun Village.
She also saw a group of cold-faced women who lived far away in another corner and did not speak to others. They must be the people from the Ruinuo City.
Inside the room, Qi Shaoshang was studying the map of Western Xia.
In ancient times, maps were not circulated, and once discovered, the person would be guilty of a crime.
The map in his hand was exchanged from the leader of a caravan. If he had not rescued the caravan, the leader would never have given him the map.
The map is not detailed, but it is good enough.
Qi Shaoshang had been looking at this map for quite some time and had changed his plan several times, but he always felt that it was not the best.
It would be fine if he went alone, but now there are so many brothers and sisters going with him...
Qi Shaoshang let out a long breath, stretched out his arm to get the oil lamp, fiddled with the wick, and the candlelight in the room immediately became much brighter.
He put the oil lamp back to its place and when he looked up, he saw two shadows appear on the wall.
One is naturally himself, and the other one...
The Nine-Manifestation Divine Dragon's eyes froze, one hand formed into a claw, the other clenched into a fist, he turned around and flew backwards, definitely taking the initiative!
However, just as he turned around, an exquisite and cold folding fan was already pressed against his brow. The surging energy in his body was like a lake water in winter encountering a severe cold. It suddenly froze without any warning and could not be mobilized at all.
Not only his insides, but also his blood and bones were frozen by the intense cold, making him feel as if he had fallen into an icy cave. The only word he could feel in his mind was cold.
But Qi Shaoshang was not an ordinary person. An ordinary person would have fainted in the sudden cold. Apart from a solemn look on his face, he did not feel any fear or panic because of the unknown. He was even able to keep his mind steady and observe, which was truly admirable.
What did he see?
a beauty.
A beauty who is even more lonely and cold than the moon in the desert.
A beauty brighter than fire.
Qi Shaoshang was a sentimental man. Under normal circumstances, he would have been shaken, but at this moment, he just felt it was difficult to breathe.
It was strange that the first thing he thought of was the strange stories he had heard when he was young!
So beautiful! The woman in front of me is so beautiful. Is she really a human?
The beauty in front of him smiled, but the folding fan against his brow was steady, without the slightest movement.
She opened her lips slightly, her breath was as sweet as orchid, but the words she spoke made Qi Shaoshang's breath stop and his heartbeat was unbalanced for a moment.
"You are indeed very smart. I am indeed not a human being."
The beauty smiled beautifully, and the fangs faintly visible at the corners of her lips made people's hearts tremble and their hands and feet gradually became cold.
Sure enough, her guess was correct.
Qi Shaoshang smells as good as Tieshou, and he smells even better than Tieshou.
He came into contact with the Flower of Evil before Iron Hand.
Thanks to the lack of rain and water in Cangzhou, and also thanks to Qi Shaoshang for being busy with his plans these days and not having much energy to take care of his personal hygiene image.
Tarona and Grand Duchess Rose do have something in common. They both have cleanliness fetishes. If they were not more particular, Qi Shaoshang would have had his neck bitten by now.
Damn, why does this man smell so good!
【Flower of Evil】Did he spray pollen on himself? !
Tarona closed his eyes in restraint, took back the mother-of-pearl and gold-carved folding fan that was pressed against Qi Shaoshang's forehead, and in the blink of an eye he stepped back more than a meter, trying to weaken the temptation physically.
The scarlet beauty retreated for some reason, and Qi Shaoshang suddenly felt the pressure on his body reduced, and his hands and feet slowly regained feeling.
His hands were shaking.
This is extremely rare.
Over the years, he had experienced countless life and death situations, but none of them gave him such an extreme sense of crisis that there was no hope of survival.
He just felt like he had escaped from a death-defying event that was enough to change his entire life. His hands were shaking, his heart was pounding, and it seemed as if a mouth would pop out of his throat.
Qi Shaoshang slowly adjusted his breathing. He didn't dare to look directly at the scarlet beauty who was sitting at an angle on the long table and fiddling with the lamp wick with a fan. It seemed that his eyes would burn if he looked at her again.
By the time he came to his senses, the beauty had gotten tired of fiddling with the wick. She opened her folding fan to cover the lower half of her face and yawned lazily and gracefully.
Qi Shaoshang coughed lightly, as if to give himself courage: "What is the matter that brings you here? As long as I can do it..."
Before he could finish his polite yet stiff words, the scarlet beauty interrupted him impatiently. Her right hand wrapped in a dark red glove spun in the air like a blooming orchid, and a gold medal engraved with words was hooked on her slender finger.
Qi Shaoshang had excellent eyesight. Although the candlelight was flickering, it did not prevent him from seeing the two words engraved on the gold medal clearly.
It was the word "Iron Hand"!
Could it be that...!
The beauty who could hear his inner voice sighed speechlessly and said: "Iron Hand is not dead. He and Zhui Ming returned to the capital safely. I asked him for this gold medal to tell you——"
She paused, and looked straight at him with a pair of bloodshot eyes, with a complicated expression, "I don't eat humans."
Qi Shaoshang:……
Qi Shaoshang: "Cough! Cough cough!"
This time he really coughed.
Tarona was really helpless. This man's imagination was no less than Yang Wuxie's. In just a short moment, he had already thought of seven or eight ways for Iron Hand to die, and he had also thought of four or five ways to deal with himself. He might be able to make friends with Yang Wuxie.
It seems that she has to use her trump card.
The scarlet beauty closed her folding fan, and her face, which seemed too beautiful to be real, showed only solemnity: "Qi Shaoshang, follow me back to the capital, and I will take you to see someone."
As if he had seen the shock in the beauty's words, Qi Shaoshang unconsciously became serious: "Who?"
Then, he heard a name that made the heavens, the earth, and the mountains pale in comparison.
"Zhao Kuangyin."
