Li Jing was sitting and worrying in the lobby when he suddenly heard this angry rebuke and was startled.
Walking out of the house, he looked up and was stunned for a moment. Then he realized that this Qingluan looked very familiar, as if it was Empress Shiji's mount.
He failed to cultivate Taoism in his early years, but Empress Shiji interceded with his master, and that was how he became rich and wealthy in the world today.
Therefore, he did not dare to be negligent and quickly bowed down and said, "Disciple Li Jing is here to pay his respects to Empress Shiji. I didn't know that Empress Shiji was coming, so I was a bit disappointed in greeting her from afar. I hope you will forgive me."
Shi Ji said angrily: "You did a good thing, you shot my disciple to death, and you still dare to talk nonsense here."
After saying that, without waiting for Li Jing to say anything, he shook his hands and held up the Bagua Yunguang handkerchief, which became several feet in size. It released thousands of rays of rays of light, wrapped Li Jing inside, and captured him.
This Bagua Yunguang Pagoda is a magic weapon refined by Empress Shiji herself. It has patterns of water, fire and thunder, which respectively correspond to the four hexagrams of Kan, Li, Dui and Zhen in the innate Bagua. It has great power.
In ancient times, Emperor Fuxi looked up at the sky, looked down at the geography, and divided the mountains and rivers in the middle. After understanding the rules of heaven and earth, he drew the Xiantian Bagua on the ancient land, and later passed it down to the world.
Empress Shiji was originally a disciple of Jie Jiao, and she had a chance to learn Bagua.
Unfortunately, her opportunities were limited and she only understood the four hexagrams of Kanli Duizhen, so she condensed the energy of water, fire, thunder and Ze to make this Fang Yunguang Pa.
If Shiji can understand the wonders of the innate Bagua in the future and complete the Bagua Yunguang Pagoda, the power of this magic weapon will be no less than any acquired spiritual treasure.
However, enlightenment is a matter of great importance and cannot be forced.
Empress Shiji took back the Bagua Yunguang handkerchief with a simple move, drove Qingluan and turned around to leave.
Qingluan was so fast that he flapped his wings lightly a few times and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Qi Yuan looked at the sky in the distance with envy, wondering if he would ever be able to soar above the nine heavens in the future.
After a while, he came back to his senses and heard the sounds of panic coming from the Li Mansion not far away. He smiled and walked forward.
In the past few months, Qi Yuan had visited many times, so the guards at the door knew him, so they led him into the lobby and sent someone to inform Mrs. Yin in the backyard.
Mrs. Yin, who was panicking because Li Jing was suddenly captured, heard about Qi Yuan's visit and was not in the mood to entertain him.
But then I thought about it, this Qi Yuan is also a generation of sage respected by people. Maybe he has some way to save his husband?
Mrs. Yin, who was in a state of confusion, hurriedly came to the lobby. Anyway, Qi Yuanxian was well-known and a rather old man, so he was not afraid of being gossiped about.
"Meet Madam."
Qi Yuan bowed respectfully and asked: "Just now I saw that everyone in the mansion was in a panic. I don't know what happened. Why didn't you see General Li?"
"well……"
Mrs. Yin let out a long sigh, with tears in her eyes, and said softly: "Sir, I don't know, but just now a divine bird descended from the sky and took my husband away."
"Oh? Is this happening?"
Qi Yuan put on an uninformed posture and asked doubtfully: "Madam, do you know the origin of that divine bird?"
"I never knew."
Mrs. Yin looked at Qi Yuan and said, "Sir, is there any way to save my husband?"
"this……"
Qi Yuan smiled bitterly, it seemed that Mrs. Yin was also confused, so she rushed to the doctor because of her illness, and found it on her own head.
However, the reason why he came to Li Mansion at this time was that he would not sit idly by.
Seeing the look of hope in Mrs. Yin's eyes, she sighed and comforted her: "Madam, there is no need to panic. General Li is a lucky man and will surely return safely."
Seeing Mrs. Yin's expression darken, Qi Yuan was afraid that she would start crying, so he quickly said: "Madam, please tell me what happened first. I have an idea. Then we will discuss how to rescue General Li."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Yin nodded, and recounted what had happened previously to Qi Yuan in detail.
After hearing this, Qi Yuan pondered for a moment and then said: "Madam, you can rest assured that General Li was probably taken away by Empress Shi Ji from the White Bone Cave in Skull Mountain. From what Madam said, it is obvious that General Li knew this Empress Shi Ji."
Yes, I think it won’t be too difficult for him.”
"Really?"
Mrs. Yin perked up after hearing this.
Qi Yuan nodded: "General Li and I are close friends, and now that he is in trouble, I can't ignore it. Let me wait at home for now. If General Li doesn't come back after dark, I will go there tomorrow."
Go up to Skull Mountain and meet Empress Shiji."
These words made Mrs. Yin very grateful. She secretly praised Qi Yuan for being worthy of the name of a sage. He knew that he might encounter danger this time, but he still dared to run for his husband's affairs. Such a highly respected elder was indeed worthy of her husband.
Have a good relationship.
As for the elder opposite who was highly regarded by Mrs. Yin, she was not worried at all that Li Jing would not come back.
Therefore, those comforting words came out of Qi Yuan's mouth as if they were free of charge, and he created an image of himself as a person who was willing to go through life and death for his friends.
In Mrs. Yin's mind at this time, the old man in front of her should be the most righteous person in the world.
She secretly thought in her heart that when her husband comes back, she must make him thank this respectable elder well. When making friends in the future, she will look for someone like this.
In less than half an hour, a ray of light quickly fell to the ground outside, revealing Li Jing's figure.
Mrs. Yin was overjoyed when she saw him and quickly stood up to greet him.
Arriving in front of Li Jing, Mrs. Yin couldn't help but sob: "Husband, I don't know what happened. I was taken away for no reason, which makes me worried. If the white-browed sage hadn't come, I wouldn't have known what to do.
It’s better to do it.”
Li Jing sighed deeply, first comforted his wife, and then thanked Qi Yuan.
I am extremely grateful to Qi Yuan for coming to help at this time.
"It was also Li Jing who suffered the bad luck. Someone picked up the Sky-shaking Arrow from the Qiankun Bow on the tower and shot the disciple of Empress Shiji to death with one arrow. This arrow had my official title on it, so Empress Shiji captured her.
."
"Fortunately, I got to know Empress Shiji in my early years. After begging hard, she let me come back to find the murderer."
Li Jing told the whole story.
Mrs. Yin said in surprise: "I have also heard from my husband that no one has been able to pick up that pair of bows and arrows. Why did this happen suddenly? Could it be that Nezha did it again?"
There was no reason why Mrs. Yin did not doubt Nezha. As for Nezha, only Nezha was the most likely to be able to do such an unexpected thing.
"Probably not. That set of bows and arrows are artifacts left behind by Holy Emperor Xuanyuan. Nezha shouldn't be able to pick them up."
Qi Yuan said leisurely on the side: "Whether it is true or not, wouldn't it be clear if you call him over and ask him?"
"That's right, then let's ask him first."
Li Jing nodded and ordered his servants to find Nezha.
After a while, Nezha ran over jumping: "Dad, mother, are you looking for me?"
Li Jing looked at him, but did not ask directly, but turned around and said: "Nezha, you said your master once told you to call you Fu Bi Mingjun, why don't you learn some archery and horse martial arts in the future?
Going into battle to kill the enemy?"
When Nezha heard this, he shouted proudly: "Dad, I don't know, but this kid has this ambition."
"When I went to the city tower to play before, I saw a pair of bows and arrows there. I shot an arrow specifically to practice some practice, but the arrow flew out of sight in the blink of an eye. I was afraid that I would lose the rest of the arrows.
That’s why I didn’t practice any more.”
As soon as these words came out, Li Jing almost became angry to death.
He shouted: "You treacherous son, the matter of beating the third prince of Donghai to death has not yet been decided. Today you have caused such a big disaster. Do you have to torture me to death?"
Mrs. Yin on the side was also speechless.
She felt helpless and terrified in her heart. She really didn't know why such a troublemaker was born.
But Nezha didn't know what happened yet, so he asked strangely: "Why is father angry? What happened again?"
Li Jing said angrily: "Your arrow killed Empress Shiji's disciple. Because the arrow had my official title on it, I was arrested by the empress. If I hadn't begged to explain the specialness of that magical bow.
, I’m afraid it will be taken to death.”
"I didn't expect that it was you who caused me trouble again."
Li Jing felt as if there was a fire burning in his chest. If Empress Shiji hadn't been so gentle, someone else might not have listened to his explanation at all and would have killed him directly to avenge his disciples.
Nezha smiled and asked: "Father, let's calm down for now. Who is Shiji Empress? Her disciples don't think much of her. Why should they blame me for their death? When did I shoot her disciples to death?"
If you blame me for nothing, I won't be convinced."
"Empress Shi Ji practices in the Bone Cave of Skull Mountain. If you say you didn't shoot her disciple to death, then go and tell her in person!"
Nezha nodded and said, "What my father said makes sense. I will go with you to that bone cave right now. If she dares to accuse me unjustly, I will smash her cave."
