Chapter 656 Dragon Injury
Qi Ning's body was shocked. At this time, he remembered that Mao Hu'er was a helm leader under the command of Master Lou Wen of the Qinglong Elder. He should have followed Elder Qinglong to forget about the ancient Longzhong in Xiangyang.
At this time, I heard that Mao Hu'er was asking for a meeting outside, so I felt something was wrong and wanted Li Tang to bring Mao Hu'er in. But after thinking about it carefully, it would be better to go out to meet him. I followed Li Tang out of the inn. It was already late at night, and the princess and the princess had already rested, and the inn was quiet.
Qi Ning left the gate of the inn and saw a figure standing under a tree not far away. Li Tang leaned closer and whispered, "Mr. Marquis, that person is Mao Hu'er."
Qi Ning nodded, signaling Li Tang not to follow him, and went over there. Mao Hu'er obviously noticed that Qi Ning came out, quickly came forward, bowed and said, "Marty!"
Qi Ning took a look and it turned out to be familiar. He was one of the three helmsmans who followed Master Lou Wen to Xiangyang. He asked: "Is it Mao helmsman? Why are you in Xuzhou? Didn't you go to Xiangyang with Elder Qinglong?"
Mao Hu'er looked solemn and whispered: "Mr. Marquis, I wonder if you are free now? The elder wants to see you."
"See me?" Qi Ning frowned and said, "Where is it?"
"It's in Xuzhou." Mao Hu'er said: "It's not far from here."
Qi Ning asked in confusion: "Why are you still in Xuzhou? The Qingmu Conference will be held soon. According to time, you are almost in Xiangyang."
Mao Hu'er forced a smile, suddenly shook her body, raised her hand to cover her chest, and her brows were locked. Only then did Qi Ning find that Mao Hu'er's face was pale. Seeing him shaking, she reached out to hold his arm and asked, "What's wrong? You're injured!"
Mao Hu'er said, "Mr. Marquis, it's not easy to say much here. If Marquis is free, he will understand everything when he goes to meet the elder. The elder said there is something big about it." He looked a little anxious, but Qi Ning was a little suspicious.
In fact, he was like alike with Master Lou Wen and became the Jinlan brothers. Qi Ning admired Master Lou Wen's character, but Qi Ning had no contact with the people under Master Lou Wen and did not have much understanding of them.
The Aoki Conference is a triennial event of the Beggars' Sect and is very important. Moreover, this Aoki Conference is even more different than before. As the elder of the Beggars' Sect, Master Lou Wen, the elder of the Beggars' Sect, would never be absent from this conference.
Now Mao Hu'er says that Master Lou Wen is still in Xuzhou, which makes Qi Ning feel a little incredible.
Mao Hu'er obviously also saw that Qi Ning was hesitating and bowed, "Don't worry, Marquis, I am indeed sent by the elders!" There was a hint of embarrassment between his eyebrows, and there seemed to be nothing to prove that what he was saying was the truth.
Qi Ning pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll go with you now and lead the way."
Mao Hu'er's eyes showed gratitude, and Li Tang had already shouted, "Marquis." He took two steps forward and asked carefully, "Marquis, I'll take a few people with me."
Mao Hu'er said: "Mr. Marquis, it's not too much. The elder said that the more secret the matter, the better, but it's up to the Marquis to make the decision."
Qi Ning thought for a while and said, "Team Wu will be in the inn, Li Tang, you go with me, don't call anyone else."
Although Li Tang felt that it was inappropriate for the little marquis to leave with the beggar, he didn't want to say much. Mao Hu'er led the way, and Qi Ning and Li Tang followed behind him.
Although Xuzhou City was not affected much after the rebellion of the Taishan King, a curfew was temporarily imposed in the city. After dark, there were no people on the streets and alleys. Only patrol soldiers appeared occasionally. Mao Hu'er's pace was not slow, but Qi Ning could see that Mao Hu'er's feet were a little sluggish, knowing that this was because of damage to internal strength.
After turning three streets, walking into an alley, and walking to the end of a house, Mao Hu'er glanced at the door three times. Someone in the house immediately patted the door panel twice. Mao Hu'er looked at it twice before the wooden door opened. Mao Hu'er took the lead in, Qi Ning and Li Tang followed in, and the person who opened the door looked around and closed the door immediately.
When Qi Ning entered the yard, he saw four or five beggars in the yard, all guarding the yard. The atmosphere was quite solemn. There was a lonely lamp in the room, and the lights were quite dim. Mao Huer raised his hand and said softly: "Marty, the elder is in the room."
Qi Ning nodded and signaled that Li Tang was waiting in the yard. He followed Mao Hu'er into the house and saw a table in the corner, with a lonely lamp on the table. A person next to him was Master Lou Wen, sitting on a chair. The things on the table were quite messy. Master Lou Wen was naked at this time. An old beggar stood behind him. Under the light, the old beggar's master had a needle on his body. At the feet of Master Lou Wen, there was a wooden basin. As soon as he entered the house, Qining smelled a fishy smell.
He saw that Master Lou Wen was really here, and he felt a little relieved. He went forward. Master Lou Wen heard the footsteps and looked up. Seeing Qi Ning, he looked happy in his eyes and said, "Brother Qi!" Before he finished speaking, he heard a "wow" sound and spit out a mouthful of blood from his mouth. The blood was facing the wooden basin under his feet, and all spit into it.
Qi Ning smelled the fishy smell even stronger, and the old beggar was already anxiously saying, "Elder, don't talk, a moment later."
Master Lou Wen nodded slightly, Qi Ning leaned forward and found that there was already a lot of blood in the wooden basin. The fishy smell was emitted from it. Under the light, Master Lou Wen saw dozens of silver needles inserted into the acupoints all over his body. At first glance, he looked like a hedgehog.
Qi Ning knew something was wrong, but knew that the old beggar was healing Master Lou Wen's wounds and did not speak. He turned around and walked to the door and asked the Mao Hu'er, "What happened? Why did the elder suffer such severe injuries?"
Mao Hu'er glanced at Master Lou Wen. Under the light, Master Lou Wen's face turned slightly blue, his eyes were closed, but his red upper body was filled with sweat.
"Marty, we crossed the Huaihe River and encountered an ambush on our way to Xiangyang." Mao Hu'er looked solemn, "The two helmsman Gongsun Jian and Zheng Quan have been killed in order to protect the elder."
Qi Ning changed color in shock and said in a daze: "The two helmsmans were killed?"
Mao Hu'er's eyes showed grief and anger, and nodded, "The other party has many people, and we were ambushed. We fought with the elders, but we were not opponents of the other party. In order to hold the other party, the two helmsman were killed brutally. The elder and I also took advantage of the night to escape. However, the elder was seriously injured and we knew there was still ambush on the way, so I protected the elder and came back to Xuzhou first. I wanted to rush to Lucheng to find the marquis. When I got here, I saw the marquis sent to the marquis and knew that the marquis was among them, so I went over to search for him at night."
"Why don't you look for support from the Beggars' Gang in the local area?" Qi Ning frowned and said, "The Beggars' Gang's disciples are everywhere. Brother Lou is an elder of the Beggars' Gang. It is not difficult to find support from the local Beggars' Gang."
Mao Hu'er shook her head and said, "The elder said it was the extraordinary time. Don't let too many people know that he was seriously injured, otherwise there would be even greater turmoil in the Beggars' Sect. I have only found a few confidant brothers to come to guard."
"So that's it." Qi Ning nodded slightly, thinking that Master Lou Wen was the leader of the seven constellations of the Beggars' Sect. If the news of his serious injury spread, there would be a real possibility of any change. He asked, "Do you know who is ambushing? Which team of opponents are?"
Mao Hu'er said: "We have never seen each other before. The elders couldn't figure out the other party's origin. The two men had very strange martial arts skills, and the monster, with great power and very strangeness."
"Monster?" Qi Ning frowned and said, "Didn't you say that the other party has many people, why are there only two people?"
Mao Hu'er explained: "At the beginning, there were more than ten people on the other side, all covered in masks. We fought with them, but we did not lose the risk. Instead, we killed several of them. It was at that time that the monster suddenly appeared and was extremely difficult to deal with. Later, two powerful opponents appeared."
"What kind of monster?" Qi Ning asked.
Mao Hu'er thought about it and then said with lingering fear: "The monster is tall and has a horn on his head. He is neither a deer nor a cow. He uses a huge cast iron as a weapon. It looks like a human, but his voice is like a wild beast. The monster is extremely powerful!"
When Qi Ning heard this, she was already discolored and sneered: "It's the medicine corpse, you have touched the medicine corpse."
"Medicinal Corpse?" Mao Hu'er said in surprise: "The Marquis knows that monster?"
Qi Ning naturally knew it, and still remembered it freshly. When he went to Xichuan, he encountered a medicine corpse chasing Yifu and others on the way. The medicine corpse was refined by a white monkey. Qi Ning knew that there were two medicine corpse, but the female medicine corpse had been removed by Qi Ning, but the male medicine corpse still existed.
As soon as he heard Mao Hu'er's narration, he immediately guessed that it must be a medicine corpse.
"Does those two powerful opponents have a white banner in their hands, short and thin, like a monkey, a dwarf?" Qi Ning stared at Mao Hu'er's eyes and asked, "There is another person holding an Erhu in his hand?"
Mao Hu'er clapped his hands and said, "Yes, it's those two guys. They have strange martial arts skills, are full of yin energy, and are extremely cruel."
Qi Ning sneered: "It turned out that the two lonely ghosts were interfering."
The white monkey and the old monster Kong Shanxian of Erhu were unknown, but every time they appeared, there would be no good things. The last time Qi Ning saw these two guys was in the Mihua Valley of Qianwuling. The two of them followed Hua Xiangrong in the chaos and wanted to steal the ice coffin, but fled in vain.
Later, Hua Xiangrong took the water ghost to intercept the river, but the two of them did not appear. Unexpectedly, they were in the Tushima this time.
Suddenly, the two of them turned their heads and saw Master Lou Wen spewing another mouthful of blood. The old beggar took action quickly and took the silver needles from Master Lou Wen like electricity. Qi Ning immediately stepped forward. After the old beggar took the silver needles, he said respectfully: "Elder, in another hour, we will detoxify again. Within an hour, don't be lucky and don't eat anything."
Master Lou Wen nodded slightly, reached out to take a towel from the table, wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth, and then looked up at Qi Ning. Although he was seriously injured, he could still laugh at this moment and said to Qi Ning: "Brother Qi, his skills are not as good as others. This time I will make you laugh. If it weren't for the great fortune, we brothers wouldn't be able to see him."
