Xiang Baiying looked solemn and thoughtful. After thinking about it, he said: "The martial arts skills of these people are not special, but they have learned a lot. Everyone has at least five or six skills, and each skill is quite accomplished. Anyone who pursues me tonight can make a name for themselves."
"Then... can you know where they are?"
Xiang Baiying shook his head and said, "They were prepared for a long time. Although I could see all the martial arts methods, I couldn't be sure where they came from." He smiled coldly: "They planned carefully, but I was afraid they had thought that if they could not kill me, they would not be able to see where they came from."
Qi Ning frowned slightly, thinking that Xiang Baiying's martial arts were so profound that he could not guess where they came from. It seemed that these people were really well-planned.
"Yes, the man's martial arts in the end were quite strange." Xiang Baiying thought of something: "When the man in gray came out of his palm, it looked like Yin and Yang Palm!"
"Yin Yang Palm?" Qi Ning asked hurriedly, "Which sect and sect is that martial arts?"
"More than thirty years ago, there was a sect in the rivers and lakes, which belonged to the Taoist Xuanmen, called the Water and Fire Yin and Yang Dao, which was powerful in the rivers and lakes for a while." Xiang Baiying said slowly: "Although the Water and Fire Yin and Yang Dao is under the banner of Taoist Xuanmen, it is a crime. Yin and Yang Palm is their unique skill in the sect. However, this martial arts is quite sinister and requires the essence and blood of boys and girls for cultivation. No one knew it at first, but later it was found out that the righteous paths of the rivers and lakes joined forces to completely eliminate the Water and Fire Yin and Yang Dao from the rivers and lakes. The water and fire Yin and Yang Dao were killed, and no one left. Yin and Yang Palm also disappeared in the rivers and lakes since then. I heard the martial arts seniors talk about this kung fu. Today's man's path and palm power seem to be the Yin and Yang Palm that has been extinct in the rivers and lakes for many years."
"Since the water, fire, Yin and Yang Dao has been eradicated long ago and the Yin and Yang Palm has been lost, how can that person still practice Yin and Yang Palm?" Qi Ningqi said: "Is he the remnant of the water, fire, Yin and Yang Dao?"
Xiang Baiying shook his head slightly and said, "I can't be sure whether it is the remnant of the water, fire, and Yin and Yang Dao."
Seeing that he looked tired, Qi Ning knew that after talking for a long time, Xiang Baiying was tired and said softly: "Uncle Xiang, let's find a secret place to rest first. There is a waterfall here, so it's not possible for those people to chase here. This place is not suitable for a long time."
Xiang Baiying nodded slightly, and Qi Ning took Xiang Baiying and went deep into the forest. After wandering around for more than an hour, he finally found a cave. Qi Ning put down Xiang Baiying and cleaned up. Then he helped Xiang Baiying to rest. Xiang Baiying's internal strength disappeared and he was exhausted. After entering the cave, he fell asleep not long after.
Qi Ning was worried that someone would come over at night, so she was guarding the entrance of the cave. Until dawn, she was quite tired. When she turned around in the cave, she saw Xiang Baiying getting up at some point, sitting cross-legged in the cave, and was breathing evenly. Qi Ning focused on his face. When he saw a red tide surge on his face, he immediately retreated and turned gray and white again. It turned red several times. Soon, the heat came out from the top of his head, sweating on his forehead was raining, and his whole body trembled. Suddenly, Xiang Baiying fell forward, "Wow" a mouthful of blood was spurting out. Qi Ning was shocked and said anxiously: "Uncle Xiang, you...!"
Xiang Baiying raised his hand slightly, indicating that Qi Ning didn't have to worry. He raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth and smiled bitterly: "This poison is indeed powerful, and half of his internal strength cannot be mobilized. I am afraid that it may not be able to recover in three or two months." Seeing Qi Ning's expression haggard, he knew that he had been waiting outside the cave for a night, and said warmly: "It's hard for you!"
Qi Ning smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Xiang, you are hungry, I'll find you some food."
Xiang Baiying knew that although Qi Ning’s martial arts skills are not weak now, he lacked experience in the martial arts world after all, and he was still shallow in the face of the enemy. He was worried that he would encounter pursuers when he went out alone, so he shook his head and said, “It’s okay. You have been tired all night, so take a good rest first.”
Qi Ning said: "I might as well."
"Uncle Xiang is now powerless. If he is really driven by the pursuers, he will rely on you to support him." Xiang Baiying smiled and said, "You should keep your energy well. If you are not strong enough, we will not be their opponents at that time."
Qi Ning thought that Xiang Baiying's words were not bad, and she didn't say much. She leaned against the stone wall in the cave and closed her eyes to rest. She had worked so hard these days. He closed his eyes and fell asleep unknowingly. When he woke up, it was already dusk. He was shocked and wondered why he had slept for so long.
He saw Xiang Baiying leaning against the entrance of the cave, holding the note given to him by Mrs. Lu, staring at the pattern on it, dazed intently, as if he didn't notice that he had woken up.
Qi Ning sighed in her heart, knowing that although Mrs. Lu was already married, Xiang Baiying's feelings for Mrs. Lu did not weaken. This time, Mrs. Lu poisoned him. Although she had no choice, Mrs. Lu chose to protect Lu Shanghe in times of crisis. People's hearts are full of flesh, and Xiang Baiying's heart is somewhat complicated.
When it comes to what love is in the world, if you are not trapped in that deep emotion, it is difficult to experience that feeling.
Qi Ning walked lightly towards him, Xiang Baiying finally found out, immediately put away the note, and smiled and said, "Are you awake?"
Qi Ning said: "Uncle Xiang, I've overslept."
"Only you can rest can you nourish your spirit." Xiang Baiying smiled and said, "You breathe evenly and have a strong breath. Your internal energy cultivation is indeed not weak."
Qi Ning thought that even the leader of the Beggars' Sect praised this. It seemed that his internal strength was really reasonable. Seeing that it was already dusk outside, he said, "Uncle Xiang, can we set off tonight?"
Xiang Baiying said: "Although it is still a bit dangerous, it cannot be delayed anymore. Brother Lu is still in their hands. They are likely to use Brother Lu and his wife as a threat to put forward conditions to me. They are not going to find me, so they will find the Beggars' Sect. I want to see what tricks these people can do."
Qi Ning said "yes", thinking that you are like this, but she is still worried that Lu Shanghe and his wife really value love and friendship.
After dark, Qi Ning did not delay and followed the way Xiang Baiying was walking back. He had a very good memory and remembered the direction he had walked before. He was cautious along the way so as not to search around here. Fortunately, he was extremely desolate and never met his opponent.
Qi Ning knew that there was still a long way to go before the Kui Mulang branch. He kept carrying Xiang Baiying like this. It was too conspicuous on the way and had to think of other ways.
When we walked to dawn, we encountered a village. Qi Ning entered the village. The farmer got up early and saw Qi Ning walking into the village with people on his back. It was very strange. Qi Ning only said that Xiang Baiying was his uncle. He was seriously ill and wanted to go to the city to see the doctor and ask if there was a carriage nearby to hire.
The villagers were very enthusiastic. Qi Ning was not short of money. She asked the villagers to hire a car. She was fed and was alone in the village. Before noon, she rushed over. Qi Ning thanked the villagers again, and then helped Xiang Baiying get on the carriage and ordered the coachman to go to Xinping Town.
Because Xiang Baiying was not seriously injured, Qi Ning told him not to walk too fast. In the evening, he entered Xinping Town.
Xinping Town is only more than 20 miles away from Chengdu Prefecture. It is located in the south of Chengdu Prefecture. It is the only way to Chengdu from southern Sichuan. Although the town is not big, there are many pedestrians and merchants every day. In the evening, Xinping Town is still quite lively. The small town is naturally not as busy as Chengdu's traffic, but there are also many inns.
The Kuimulang branch is located in an old house north of Xinping Town. When the carriage followed the guide to the old house, it was already dark. Qi Ning jumped out of the carriage first and saw three or four beggars sitting under the wall of the old house. Seeing a carriage coming, several beggars staring at the carriage very alertly.
Qi Ning bowed and said, "You travel around the world and guard the yin and yang in all directions!"
This is the ticking code of the opponent of the Beggars' Sect. Xiang Baiying had already taught him the code on the carriage. Sure enough, the beggars all got up, and each of them beat the ground with the stick in their hands three times. Then Qi Ning said, "Don't ask about the road of Wuhu, let me fly in the world!"
A beggar came up and bowed, "Do you dare to ask me what cloud is hanging on my head?"
Qi Ning knew that he would definitely ask this. The other party asked what cloud was hanging on his head, but in fact he was asking where the sub-ruler belonged. Just like if Qi Ning was a disciple of Jingmuxuan branch, he would just answer "Tic toes float up to the head". However, now the leader of the Beggars' Sect has arrived. Qi Ning whispered as he told Baiying: "Qingmu float up to the head!"
The leader of the Beggars' Sect used the green wood ring as a token. Among the Beggars' Sect, the word "green wood" refers to the leader of the Beggars' Sect. Sure enough, several beggars were surprised when they heard Qi Ning's incision and looked at each other. At this time, they only heard a cough in the carriage, and then one arm was stretched out. Several beggars looked over and saw a green wood ring on one finger. They were even more surprised. One of them turned around and went into the old house, while the other people stood respectfully on the side of the carriage. The coachman was still there, and it was difficult for several people to visit immediately. However, Qi Ning went over to help Xiang Baiying get off the carriage and thanked the coachman again. The coachman looked strange and did not dare to stay for too long to avoid causing trouble and hurt his body. He drove the carriage away quickly.
As soon as the carriage left, only footsteps were heard, five or six people came from the old house. The first one was short and fat, with a bald head, and it was the White Tiger Elder.
Seeing Qi Ning holding Xiang Baiying, the White Tiger Elder knelt down on the ground without saying a word and said respectfully: "Go to the leader of the gang!" The other Beggar Gang disciples did not hesitate anymore, and they all knelt down, saying "Go to the leader of the gang."
Xiang Baiying said lightly, "Get up." He signaled Qi Ning to help him into the old house. Qi Ning helped Xiang Baiying into the old house. Four beggars were still guarding outside. Elder Baihu and others surrounded Qi Ning and the others. After entering the door, someone immediately closed the door. Elder Baihu bowed slightly and led Qi Ning and the others into the lobby of the old house.
