The more Qi Xingmeng thought about it, the angrier he became. He actually pulled out a knife from the hand of the guard next to him and waved it wildly at everyone.
The guards were afraid of hurting her, and there was nothing they could do against her.
Leng Zhi was extremely upset when he saw her looking crazy. If she made too much trouble, it would be easy to attract people from the First City.
He winked at the guard beside him and asked him to go over and knock Qi Xingmeng unconscious.
Qi Xingmeng immediately saw through Leng Zhi's plan, put the knife directly on his neck and said: "If you dare to touch me, I will die for you!"
"I am a princess, but I am imprisoned by you. I might as well die!"
Leng Zhi didn't expect that she would be enlightened at this moment and know how to threaten him with herself.
He actually doesn't care about her life or death, but if she dies here now, it will bring him a lot of trouble.
He could only grit his teeth and deal with her.
Tang Miaoxin had already arrived at the house over there. There were many formations set up there, and she easily passed through to the study.
Because Qi Xingmeng was making trouble there, Leng Zhi took all the guards away, and there was basically no one here.
Tang Miaoxin looked around quickly and saw that there was a room with lights on, so she walked directly towards it.
In her hand, Su Letian gave her the tool to sense the philosopher's stone. It was a small disc, but at this time, the disc did not move at all.
Her eyes narrowed slightly, isn't the Philosopher's Stone here?
She opened the door and found no one inside. There were various books on the table and an open atlas.
Tang Miaoxin glanced at it and recognized it as the formation diagram in Kuye Temple.
She curled her lips slightly and decisively took out something from her arms and stuck it on the most inconspicuous bottom of the case.
After she finished gluing, she accidentally bumped into the bookshelf next to her when she stood up, and the books on the bookshelf fell.
As soon as she lowered her head, she saw something falling out of the book.
She picked it up and saw that it was an IOU with dark red dried blood on it.
She quickly unfolded it, and the time and amount of the loan, as well as her name, were clearly written on the IOU. The total amount was as high as one hundred thousand taels.
Tang Miaoxin is also a veteran, and knows that in this world, except for gambling, it is difficult for people to owe so much money.
She looked at the signature and handprint at the bottom and narrowed her eyes slightly.
There were very light footsteps behind her, so light that they were almost inaudible, and a figure walked towards her.
She felt an extremely strong killing intent, and without looking back, she knew that the person coming was far superior to her in martial arts.
Tang Miaoxin has encountered countless dangers over the years, but none of them were as scary as this one.
She felt as if she was being stared at by a wild beast and would soon be torn to pieces.
Although there were people outside to help her at this time, she knew that she would die here before she could get out.
Her mind was spinning very fast, and in just a moment, she had already thought of several plans.
The shadow standing behind her had slowly drawn out his dagger and stabbed her hard.
The moment the dagger struck, Tang Miaoxin quickly avoided it and spread the poison in his hand towards the shadow.
Shadow, however, seemed not to be afraid of the poison she spread at all. He stretched out his hand and took it straight to her throat.
Once that hand grabs Tang Miaoxin's throat, it will definitely crush her throat.
This happened very quickly. Tang Miaoxin took out the short knife that Tang Jiuge gave her and met the shadow's hand.
Shadow did not withdraw his hand, but strangled her throat again from another angle.
She quickly changed the direction of the short knife and cut the hand from an incredible angle. The blade was sharp and cut the shadow's fingers.
Her internal strength is mediocre, and her martial arts skills are light and agile, so fast close combat is her strength.
But when she was fighting with him, she only touched his hand lightly, and she felt that her hand was numb from the shock.
The other party's murderous intent was so strong that being so close made her unable to breathe.
She made a decisive move and waved her sleeves, and dozens of poisonous short needles popped out of her sleeves.
Shadow was forced to take a step back, then reached out and swung her out, catching most of it with a short needle.
Tang Miaoxin knew that there was a huge difference in martial arts between her and her opponent. This person seemed to be immune to poison.
She didn't dare to fight, so she used her Qing Gong to the extreme and flew to the window very fast.
But when she reached out to the window, she immediately discovered something was wrong. The window was fake:
It was made of wood to look like a window, and everything on the outside was built with bricks.
Her heart sank, and she quickly scanned the room and found that except for the entrance door, the other doors and windows were all fake.
In the past, she would have noticed this situation very quickly, but today she came in too hastily, and it was night, so she didn't notice it for a while.
And if she wanted to go out now, she had to cross the shadow and escape from the door.
She also saw clearly the appearance of the shadow at this time.
He looked very thin and wore a black cloak with a huge hat that completely covered his face, making it difficult to see his appearance.
Shadow is immune to poison, and his martial arts skills are far superior to hers, so she has no chance of winning.
At this time, it is obviously unwise to force the enemy.
Tang Miaoxin said decisively: "We are our own people, and I came to your master to discuss cooperation!"
Shadow didn't listen to her explanation at all. He raised his hand and all the short needles he had just held flew towards her.
She rolled on the spot completely without any image, narrowly avoiding those short needles.
Tang Miaoxin cursed in her heart, she had not been forced to this level for many years.
She knew there was no reason to argue with this shadow, so she immediately shouted at the top of her lungs: "Leng Zhi! If you don't come, your people will kill me!"
Shadow was a little surprised when she shouted this, because the meaning of her words seemed to have an appointment with Leng Zhi.
Shadow finally spoke: "Who are you?"
He seemed to have not spoken for a long time, and his voice was very hoarse.
Tang Miaoxin replied: "I am Leng Zhi's ally, and I came to discuss cooperation with him."
"I really didn't expect that you Qi people would be so unreasonable and just take action without saying a word."
Shadow glanced at her warily.
She confidently walked towards the door and shouted at the top of her lungs: "Leng Zhi, come here quickly!"
As she walked past the desk, she seemed to touch it casually.
Maybe it was because she looked too determined, and Shadow couldn't be sure of her identity, so he looked at her coldly and didn't stop her.
After all, Leng Zhi had met too many people and done too many things during this period. He was not sure whether Tang Miaoxin had an appointment with Leng Zhi.
He just felt that she looked a little strange at this time, and he couldn't figure out what was strange about her for a while.
Tang Miaoxin's voice was loud, but she was hoping that Leng Zhi would come over later.
Seeing that Tang Miaoxin was about to leave the room, Shadow stopped her with a sword in his hand: "You cannot leave until the master confirms your identity."
[The author has something to say]
Happy New Year, my cuties!
Yesterday, Tangtang happily told her friends that 2021 was coming soon. Her friends looked at Tangtang like she was a fool: "2021 has passed!" Tangtang was shocked at the time, it was actually 2022!
The question is, where will Tangtang go in 2021?
The people who wrote the article are all at home, hidden in the bustling city, unaware of the passage of time, but there are probably not many who are as confused as Tangtang.
When I woke up this morning, Tangtang finally understood where 2021 was. I started writing this article around January of the beginning of the year. It took me until April to write the opening chapter, introduction, and book title. This article is Tangtang’s 2021.
