In the end, Li Jiang did not kill Ma Shiying, but just knocked him out.
Regardless of whether he was a traitor or not, at least he pledged his life to the country, so Li Jiang couldn't do anything.
Following the surveyed route, Li Jiang sneaked out of the Governor's Mansion without any danger.
He did not dare to return to the inn, because the effect of his acupuncture would disappear in two hours, and Ma Shiying and Ma Shiying would wake up automatically.
So he went directly to an uninhabited place within the city wall, pulled out the rope from the space, which was the one for archaeology, and tied the dagger to the end of the rope.
Of course, the city wall is not thirty feet high. It is estimated by visual inspection that it is about ten meters. A high-tech nano rope is enough.
Li Jiang took a few steps back, used all his inner strength in his hand to throw the dagger towards the battlements.
There was a slight whistling sound in the air, and the dagger was inserted straight into the brick wall of the battlement, and the rope hung down. Li Jiang reached out and grabbed it and pulled it down. It was very strong and could bear more than 100 kilograms without much problem.
.
He climbed up a few meters. With his lightness skills, he could fly directly up this distance, but Li Jiang didn't. Being cautious is the way to go.
He slowly climbed to the edge of the city wall, stretched out half his head to observe the situation on the city wall. There was no one guarding within fifty meters of this section of the city wall, so Li Jiang turned over like a kite and jumped up.
Gently putting away the dagger and rope, he walked to the other side of the battlement in a few steps, then stretched out half his head and looked under the city wall. Well, there was no one there either.
Li Jiang felt relieved and started to use Qinggong like a big bird to jump out of the city.
After landing on the ground, he rolled to relieve his force. Li Jiang stood up, looked back at the shadow of the city wall, smiled proudly, and turned to leave.
He had a plan. He would first find a quiet place to take the medicine, and try to open up the eight extraordinary meridians.
It's definitely not possible in the city. In less than two days, the government will definitely post notices everywhere. That's a trap for yourself.
With an eager mood, Li Jiang ran hundreds of miles toward the north without resting. He didn't stop until more than three thousand points of internal energy were almost exhausted.
Li Jiang had never been to Anhui in his two lives. He only learned from geography books that the Huaihe River should be north of Fengyang. He thought to himself that the river he crossed yesterday was the one he crossed yesterday. It should have passed the jurisdiction of the Governor of Fengyang.
?
Feeling relieved, Li Jiang breathed a sigh of relief, but he still didn't dare to ask Da to stay in the city. What if the local government gave Governor Ma face? Let's keep a low profile.
After making up his mind, he searched for a place in the wilderness in the hope of finding a satisfactory place. Fortunately, he had experience in surviving in the wild, and there was also a large amount of water and cakes stored in the space. With his food guaranteed, he would not be hungry.
die.
After half a day, he actually found a place.
This is a small mountain village, located at the foot of a low mountain. The village is in complete ruins and is completely silent. The buildings that have not collapsed are all dark, showing traces of smoke and fire.
Seeing this doomsday-like scene, Li Jiang couldn't help but sigh. In troubled times, people's lives are like grass. It's unclear whether this village was destroyed by bandits or officers and soldiers.
With a heavy heart, he found a relatively sturdy house and lived in it.
This room was made of stone, and there was a large yard around it, but it was basically burned to ashes. It seems that the owner of the house must have been a wealthy family before, otherwise he would not have used bluestone to build his house.
There was no furniture inside, and everything that could be burned had been burned, leaving only four walls that were burned black. However, the space was quite large, with forty or fifty square meters.
Li Jiang didn't mind, as long as no one came to disturb him. He took out a quilt from the space and spread it under him. This was taken from the inn. After all, he was prepared for anything. Li Jiang had to stuff it into the space every time he went out at night.
, no, it comes in handy now, I no longer have to sleep on the cold floor.
After making the bed, Li Jiang sat cross-legged on the quilt. After calming down, he took out the wooden box from the space with a pious mood.
He was not in a hurry to open it. He first turned his head left and right, looked around, and listened to the surrounding sounds. After a while, after confirming that there was nothing abnormal, Li Jiang opened the box and took out a jade bottle with a smile on his face.
Putting the wooden box into the space, Li Jiang pulled out the cork and poured out a wax pill. He pinched the wax seal and revealed the true appearance of Shouwu Fuling Pill.
Li Jiang did not imitate his second senior brother when he ate ginseng fruit rudely. He first looked at the appearance. It was the same as what he had seen in the Governor's Mansion a few days ago. The pill was vermilion red and round as thick as a thumb.
Then I took the medicine to my nose and took a deep breath. Wow, "cough cough", it smelled like Chinese medicine, and it was a little bit fragrant.
After enough foreplay, Li Jiang took it in one mouthful, but the thing was too big to swallow. He took out a tureen from the space, which was also smooth. There was water in it. He chewed the elixir a few times and drank two mouthfuls of water before swallowing it.
The jade bottle was thrown into the space, and Li Jiang sat quietly waiting for the medicine to take effect.
A few minutes later, a stream of heat surged from his stomach and rushed to all parts of his body. This stream of heat gave Li Jiang a majestic, dull feeling. In short, it was big and thick, and carried with it a majestic medicinal power.
Li Jiang carefully observed it. For ordinary people, this kind of medicine can repair hidden wounds and re-inject vitality into the body; for martial arts practitioners, this is the essence referred to in refining qi, and they don't have to work hard to practice it from food.
It can be transformed into internal force with a little transformation, which saves a lot of hard work.
Li Jiang was overjoyed at this time and started using Hunyuan Kung Fu to circulate the medicinal power in the twelve main meridians. After the heat flow stopped coming from his stomach, he felt that his inner Qi seemed to have grown stronger.
I couldn't wait to open the system panel, and the value in the internal force column became 3838, which was nearly 500 points higher than before. This was equivalent to saving three or four months of work.
Li Jiang's lips trembled, his hands and feet trembled. There were 79 pills in these two bottles of medicine. 79 pills. If I knock them all out, wouldn't my internal strength surge to tens of thousands? Maybe I could open up the most difficult task among the eight extraordinary meridians.
Governor of the Second Meridian, will he be invincible in the world from now on?
Wow hahaha, he laughed wildly until tears flowed down, and murmured to himself: "I took a few more steps on the way home. The ladies are waiting for me. It won't be long before my brother is here."
He will return with the power of a king!"
After wiping away his tears, Li Jiang suppressed his excitement, took out the jade bottle and poured out a pill, and swallowed it without hesitation.
Time passed slowly like this. Li Jiang was in retreat in a small mountain village, but there was an uproar outside.
The Fengyang Governor-General's Office issued an arrest warrant for a daring person who snatched tributes. The government promised to reward a hundred gold coins for anyone caught, and ten gold coins for anyone who provided information.
Cities along the Yangtze River and along the Huaihe River received painted shadow graphics.
The broad masses of the people were delighted when they saw it. This graphic had a certain purpose. With the face covered with a banknote, the face could not be seen clearly. Apart from the fact that the hair style looked like a man, he had no other characteristics.
If you can catch people, then sows can climb trees.
A well-informed person revealed a small amount of information, saying that Governor Ma was so angry that he personally broke some of his beloved jades and porcelain, and even said harsh words: This thief must be cut into pieces, otherwise he will not be able to satisfy his hatred.
