Chapter 440 Borrowing a knife to kill
Although Qi Ning knew a little about the pattern of the world, he didn't know much about it. After hearing what Li Xigong said, he felt relieved and finally understood why the Xi'men Wuhen insisted on putting the blame for the poisonous epidemic in the capital on Swing Yi...: .
The two heroes of Southern Chu and Northern Han competed, and after the Qinhuai Battle, they were bound to be raising their spirits and preparing for the next battle.
The new king of Chu ascended the throne, and the national power has not yet stabilized. The forces in the court and the middle party have all attacked different people. If the forces under the control of the Shenhou Mansion have taken off the reins, it will of course be a disaster for Chu.
Taking advantage of the opportunity of the poisonous epidemic in the capital, the Black Lotus Sect was involved and summoned the eight gangs and sixteen sects to fight with the Black Lotus Sect. Whether it is the eight gangs and sixteen sects or the Black Lotus Sect, after this battle, they will be greatly damaged. This is of course a situation that cannot be obtained for the Divine Marquis Mansion. In this way, when Xuanyuan Po takes over the Divine Marquis Mansion, at least he can control the situation in the world.
"Jinyi Hou, you are here in the western border this time, but what does the Ximen Wuhen mean?" Li Xigong looked at Chu Huan: "Is it him who asked you to participate in this operation?"
Qi Ning said: "It's the emperor's intention." Suddenly, when the little emperor sent him to Xichuan, he just wanted to investigate the Black Rock "Cave" incident by himself, and did not let the other things be "inserted".
When the Black Rock ‘Cave’ incident occurred, the Shenhou Mansion had already begun to plan to attack the Black Lotus Sect, and the little emperor had no choice but to participate in this plan.
Seeing Qi Ning thinking, Duke Li Xi said, "Wuhen, the Ximen of the State of Chu, is an important minister, and is naturally very important in front of the emperor. If he had said a few words in front of the emperor...!"
"Senior Li, what do you mean is that the Emperor sent me to Qianwuling, and was the West 'Gate' Wuhen's advice?"
Duke Li Xi smiled faintly and said, "I am not a court official, nor have I seen the emperor, but according to my understanding of the West 'men' Wuhen, there is a great possibility."
"But what good is this for him?" Qi Ning frowned and said, "Did he expect that he would fail to attack Qianwuling, so he wanted me to take the blame?"
Mr. Li Xi shook his head and said, "This may not be his real purpose." After a pause, he finally asked, "Qining, is Beigong Liancheng still alive?"
Qi Ning was stunned. Seeing Li Xigong staring at him with his eyes, he hesitated for a moment, thinking that although Li Xigong was Master Tang Nuo and looked quite kind, he should not behave like a person. After all, this old man has a blood relationship with the Black Lotus Sect, so he could only say: "Senior Li, I can't hide it from it. I can't tell whether the Sword God is still alive."
Li Xi said justice: "Monkey King, I'm sorry, if you die in Qianwuling during this battle, and Beigong Liancheng is still alive, what will happen next?"
Qi Ning immediately understood and said in horror: "Does the West 'Gate' Wuhen still want to provoke a grudge between the Sword God and the Black Lotus Sect Leader?"
"The Sword God is the Grand Master. If you are connected with him, he will not let it go even if he is not for you or for his reputation." Li Xi said justice: "If you move the Jinyi Hou, just wait for the tiger beard of Beigong Liancheng, the two great masters will have to kill each other in life and death." Fu Xu smiled faintly and said, "Some people regard the Grand Master as a monster that should not exist in the world. The Western "Gate" Wuhen controls the southern world, but has never controlled the western territory of Bashu. Only the Grand Master is the only one who poses a fatal threat to the Shenhou Mansion."
"Borrow a knife and kill someone!" Qi Ning suddenly realized.
He never expected that this time when attacking Qianwuling, the West Gate Wuhen, had such a conspiracy. Although what Li Xigong said was just one-sided words, just speculation, and no evidence, he had to admit that Li Xigong's analysis was very reasonable.
He actually knew that the West Gate Wuhen was not simple, but when he thought that he came to Qianwuling this time, it was very likely that it was a part of the West Gate Wuhen design. He used himself as a chess piece, and felt very uncomfortable.
"Senior Li, do you know what the current situation of the battle between the two sides is?" Qi Ning asked.
Mr. Li Xi shook his head and said, "The dispute between the Shenhou Mansion and the Black Lotus Sect is their business, and I will not 'insert' my hand." He turned around, held up the ice coffin, walked onto the ice surface, and put the ice coffin into the ice pool. Although the surface of the pond was frozen, the ice layer was still thin and the ice coffin was not light. He pressed on it and immediately crushed the thin ice below, and the ice coffin slowly sank under the pool.
Qi Ning was a little regretful. After a long time of trouble, he still couldn't figure out what was in the ice coffin.
When Mr. Li Xi saw the ice coffin sinking into the bottom of the pond, he breathed a little relieved. He turned around and saw Qi Ning staring at the pond and said, "This is a secret place, but since it has been discovered, he always has to find a new place."
"Senior Li, they tried their best to do things in the ice coffin. In this ice coffin..."
Li Xi said justice: "I know what you are going to ask, so you might as well tell you that the things in it may be useful to others, but they are not of great use to you." After a pause, Qi Ning looked confused and sighed: "There is a person here!"
"Ah?" Qi Ning was stunned, "Is there a person here?" Seeing Li Xigong nodding slightly, he said strangely: "Those people are actually... for a corpse!"
Li Xigong's face sank, and he said, "The corpse? Who told you that there is a corpse in the ice coffin?"
Qi Ning was stunned and thought to himself that since it was a coffin, what was it not a corpse inside?
Duke Li Xi didn't seem to want to explain more and waved his hand: "You guys leave here quickly. It's not suitable to stay here for a long time. It's cold here. It's too long, which is harmful to the body."
Qi Ning said: "Senior Li, I actually want to ask you for something."
"I know what you want to ask for." Li Xi said justice: "You still want me to come forward and solve the fight between the two sides. I will tell you the truth, don't say that I don't want to get involved in this matter. Even if I really come forward, it will be useless. Do you think that an old man has such great ability, and can both sides stop the war in a few words?" He sighed and said: "The Black Stone Palace must have been bleeding from this. Qi Ning, I advise you to give up the idea of the past. The two sides have a turbulent battle, and a mistake can be lost, but don't throw your life on it."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a voice saying, "Marty, you don't have to go to the Black Stone Palace, I... I'll go by myself." Qi Ning looked in the voice and saw that the West Gate Zhan Ying was already pushing the little demon "girl" Anau out from behind the rockery.
Anau gritted his teeth and saw Duke Li Xi, he was stunned for a moment, and then immediately shouted: "Old man Li, come and save me..."
Mr. Li Xi glanced at her and ignored her.
"Hey, Old Man Li, you don't recognize me anymore?" The little demon "female" said anxiously: "I am Xiao Anau? Don't pretend to not see me."
Mr. Li Xi turned his head and said angrily: "The old poisonous substance has raised a small poison. Little Anau, I ask you, have my 'medicine' garden been destroyed by you?"
The little demon "female" was stunned and a little embarrassed.
Qi Ning remembered that the little demon girl found Tang Nuo that time and wanted to get "Herang Cai" from Tang Nuo, but instead suffered a great loss in Tang Nuo. Before leaving, she was so angry that she destroyed all the herbs and medicines in the medicine garden.
The little demon girl turned her eyes and said pitifully: "Old man Li, even if I was wrong, you are so old, you shouldn't be as knowledgeable as my child."
"Child?" Qi Ning's eyes swept across the body of the little demon's "female". Although the little demon's "female" was small and delicate, his skin was fair and delicate, and even his breasts were a bit swollen. Although they were not completely opened, they were already a young girl. He sneered: "Are you like this, you are still a child? He is cruel and cunning, and he is just a big devil."
The little demon girl said pitifully: "This is all taught by my master, and it's not my fault. Old man Li, you and my master are in the same "language". You can't watch me bullied by them and refuse to save me? If I have any good intentions, how can you "tell" to him when you see my master?"
"Talk to him?" Mr. Li Xi spitted on the ground and said angrily: "I have long since broken up with him, and I am no longer the same "door". What do you do with me if you are a little guy?" He waved his hand repeatedly, as if he was very tired: "Take her away, take her away, don't let me see their master and apprentice."
Qi Ning was really worried that the Lixi Guild would let him go. Seeing Lixi Gong say this, he didn't say much, and put his shoulders on the little demon's "woman" and said, "Senior Li doesn't want to see you, go with us."
Seeing that Li Xigong was indifferent, the little demon "female" immediately became vicious, and cursed: "Old man Li, you bad guy, how dare you watch them bully me. Okay, I will write down this grudge. I will deal with you when I turn back. By the way, and your good disciple, I will make your master and disciple regret it."
Duke Li Xi carried his hands on his back and turned around and ignored them.
Qi Ning sneered, "If you want to harm others, you have to survive by yourself." With a hard pull, the little demon "woman" was pulled forward and almost fell down. He turned his head and said viciously: "What are you doing?"
Qi Ning said: "Take us to the Black Stone Hall."
Mr. Li frowned slightly, but said nothing. Zhan Ying, Ximen, was stunned and lowered her head slightly and said, "Marty, actually... you don't have to go up the mountain with us. It's very dangerous there, you...!"
"No need to say more." Qi Ning sighed: "Since the mountain is dangerous, I can't watch you take risks alone. I know it's useless to persuade you, you must go up the mountain."
Ximen Zhan Ying looked at Qi Ning, and her beautiful eyes showed a sense of excitement and said, "Mr. Marquis, thank you very much...thank you."
The little demon 'woman' shouted, "Big ass, do you think he has a good intention? He must want you to be his wife, and he likes your big ass, and then he helps you stand out. I can see his thoughts at a glance."
Xi'men Zhan Ying was both ashamed and annoyed, and said angrily: "Shut up." She acted and was about to move forward.
The little demon "woman" snorted coldly. She had been beaten before. The hero did not suffer any loss in front of him. He just said, "Shut up, stop talking. Anyway, what I said must be right." Seeing that Qi Ning's eyes were also looking at him coldly, he immediately did not dare to say more. He turned his face and continued to think about how to escape from Qi Ning's clutches and wait for the opportunity to take revenge.
