Qin Hengjun changed another carriage for Qi Xuansu, and the rest of the journey was carried out cautiously, almost like a march. The second-in-command of the Nanting Protectorate wanted to send the scouts out in advance to ensure nothing went wrong.
There is no way, Qi Xuansu is not afraid, he is really afraid, and if Qi Xuansu died in the Lion City, it would be because of yellow mud falling into his crotch, you understand the meaning.
Xie Jiaofeng was also worried. Although the guilt of an attempted assassination was much lighter than that of a successful assassination, no matter how light the crime was, it was still a crime. Moreover, such an incident also disrupted his original plan. What he originally wanted to do was to kill him as soon as possible.
This great Bodhisattva was sent away, but after something like this happened, Qi Xuansu would not leave even if he could. He might have to stay in Lion City for a long time to investigate the matter thoroughly.
As time goes by, other bad things will probably surface, which will be troublesome. And the assassination case is likely to alarm Jin Que, which will be even more troublesome. Dear mother, it will really affect your career.
Is it easy for him to work hard for most of his life to become a powerful deputy palace master? If this matter is not handled well, it will be easy for him to retire to the mountains and forests early.
Although this emergency incident did not cause very serious and irreversible consequences, it still had a great impact.
It won't take long for the entire Lion City to know about it.
Qi Xuansu was sitting in the new carriage, next to Xiao Yin who was completely blackened by the fireworks. Every time he opened his mouth to speak, he could only see a set of white teeth and the occasional flash of light in his eyes. Besides, he was thrown to pieces.
Chen Jianqiu's injuries were just superficial injuries and had little impact.
All the files Qi Xuansu had were burned to the ground. Although they were all copies and there were corresponding backups, there were no files left to read at this time.
Qi Xuansu had no choice but to sit in his seat and close his eyes to rest.
At the same time, we are also thinking about the possibilities and impacts of this emergency.
Who would do such a thing?
Some people may suspect that it is the Nanyang United Trading Company, because they have considerable motives and such strength, and the person who blocked the road to complain did mention the Nanyang United Trading Company, which successfully aroused Qi Xuansu's interest. It can be said that these people put Qi Xuansu's
The pulse number is very accurate.
Various reasons point to Nanyang United Trading Company.
Qi Xuansu instead felt that the possibility of Nanyang United Trading Company was unlikely.
The reason is also very simple. The Wang family, headed by Wang Jiaohe, actually has a very clear idea. They wait for the war in Fenglinzhou to end, and the freed Taiping Dao can once again contain the Quanzhen Dao. After all, Chen Shuhua has defected, and the Wang family's vitality has been seriously damaged.
, from a "cancer" to a "cancer", it can no longer shake the foundation of the Taoist sect, it is within the tolerance of Taipingdao, and it can continue to contain Quanzhendao, so Taipingdao has the motive to protect the Wang family, that is,
so-called involvement
Surprise.
In this case, the Wang family's countermeasures will definitely not be a head-on confrontation, but to keep their tail between their legs, discard what they can, cut what they can cut, cut off the wrists of a strong man, and cut off the tail of a gecko, to preserve their core strength. Act in a low-key manner and be cautious.
act.
Even if the people below can't clearly see the situation and don't know the severity, at most they will go their own way as in the past and will never do anything like assassinating Qi Xuansu.
Only Wang Jiaohe was qualified to issue the order to assassinate Qi Xuansu, but how could Wang Jiaohe, an old fox, do such a thing at this juncture? Unless he had lost his mind.
The Wang family seems to have motives, but in fact they have no motives.
Therefore, Qi Xuansu initially concluded that it was unlikely that Nanyang United Trading Company was responsible.
On the contrary, it was deliberately blaming Nanyang United Trading Company to confuse the public and divert attention.
If we continue to speculate on the basis of excluding Nanyang United Trading Company, will it be a disincentive?
Not likely either.
An assassination is of a very bad nature.
After all, it is about life. People cannot be resurrected. Who can say that it will not hurt Qi Xuansu? I really wanted to blow up Qi Xuansu. Afterwards, I said that I just wanted to scare Qi Xuansu and kill his prestige. I didn't expect Qi Xuansu to be so unreasonable.
He was accidentally killed by an explosion. Will the Taoist sect recognize it? Will those who have many interests entangled with Qi Xuansu, such as Qiniang, Donghua Zhenren, and Tianshi, recognize it?
No one would use such drastic measures to give Qi Xuansu a blow.
There is something to be said for replacing it with a dud bomb.
But even if it is replaced with a dumb bomb, the risk is still too great, because the Taoist sect and the Daxuan court strictly control all kinds of firearms. No matter what the result is, even if the assassination has not yet happened, they must be traced to the end. I don’t know how many people will be involved. Just
It was to scare Qi Xuansu, but the price was too high.
Therefore, Qi Xuansu is more inclined to think that this is an assassination. Someone knew from some channels that his cultivation level was greatly damaged, so they planned an assassination. However, they did not expect that Qi Xuansu had Xiao Yin beside him. At the critical moment, Xiao Yin was under Qi Xuansu's pressure.
His body bore most of the power, plus Qi Xuansu's own body, so there was no danger in the end.
Some people may have questions, how can Xiao Yin's small body block Qi Xuansu? In fact, Xiao Yin is very "elastic". As early as when he was in Fenglinzhou, Xiao Yin had to swallow someone who was several times bigger than himself.
A monster with a mouth that can pull
The boss, in fact, is not only her mouth, but her whole body can also stretch very much. She does not change from a little girl with short hands and feet to a slender girl, but stretches and enlarges like a South Sea specialty rubber, or like
The shadow stretched so long that Qi Xuansu was covered.
Therefore, Xiao Yin is not a human being, he just has a human form.
In fact, Qi Xuansu had a suspect, but there was no evidence.
That is Li Tianzhen.
The use of firearms shows that the person who planned the assassination has great power in the Taoist sect and the court. Only in this way can firearms be used. There are not many people who meet this condition.
The Li family is one of them.
What particularly impressed Qi Xuansu was that on the night when the Zhenwu Temple was burned down in Jinling Mansion, the group of people from the "Heavenly Court" had "sun-shooting blunderbuss" in their hands, and their firepower was even more powerful than the spiritual officers stationed at the Zhenwu Temple.
The spirit officials were defeated and defeated. Where did those "sun-shooting blunderbuss" come from?
It cannot be made by "Tianting" itself. Needless to say, the craftsmanship of the gun tube is complex and the requirements are strict. It is not just technical skills, but requires a very complicated set of processes and many supporting processes. Even if "
"Tian Ting" can make fire blunderbuss, but it cannot make the corresponding "Dragon Eyes" series. These are two completely different sets of processes.
In fact, the fact is already obvious. Some people in the Taoist sect provided firearms to the "Tianting".
The lesson is not far away. Li Tianzhen happened to come to Nanyang again. No matter how you look at it, Li Tianzhen is the most suspicious.
As the eldest son of the Li family, Li Tianzhen has the strength and courage, and coupled with all kinds of messy reasons, he insists on having a little hatred for his wife, and there is no shortage of motives.
Could it be that Li Tianzhen came to the Lion City? Or did he arrange remote control remotely?
Just as Qi Xuansu was thinking about this, the carriage stopped. This time it was not someone blocking the road to complain, but Tian Hock Temple arriving.
Qi Xuansu stepped out of the carriage, and the brand-new second-grade Taiyi Taoist crane cloak was not spared, so Qi Xuansu took it off directly, wearing only a "Youyi Yunyi", the golden lotus crown was also taken off, his hair was disheveled, his face
There are still some traces of smoke and fire on it.
Next to Qi Xuansu was a small black figure, standing next to the black carriage. As long as he didn't open his mouth, he almost blended into the carriage.
Originally, Xie Jiaofeng arranged for some little Taoist boys to welcome Qi Xuansu, with the intention of showing Qi Xuansu's beauty of being close to the people, but the little Taoist boys were stunned when they saw this scene.
Is this Zhenren Qi?
Was it a mistake?
Didn't it say that Master Qi came from Shenglong Mansion? Why did he look like he had just come down from the trenches on the Fenglinzhou battlefield, and there was still a faint smell of gunpowder smoke on his body.
Although it is said that Master Qi is indeed a hero who returned from the battlefield of Fenglinzhou, is this too outrageous?
Of course Qi Xuansu's body smelled like gunpowder smoke. After all, he had been shot hard just now, so it couldn't be the smell of blood. All the blood had been evaporated.
Fortunately, Xie Jiaofeng had already got out of the car at this time. He was already upset, and when he saw this scene, he became even more angry. He didn't care about the deputy palace master's demeanor, and immediately gave instructions loudly: "You two
What are you doing standing around here? Waiting for the guests to welcome you?"
Everyone who was stunned came to their senses and confirmed that this was Master Qi. They immediately started to move according to the originally rehearsed formation, and warmly welcomed Chief Qi for his inspection.
Xie Jiaofeng was still full of anger and wanted to find someone to vent his anger on. Then he targeted a Taoist priest in charge and lowered his voice and reprimanded, "How did you do this job? Just leave Qi Zhenren there to hang out? Do you still want to do it?"
?I’m telling you, if you don’t want to do it, get out as soon as possible. If you don’t do it, someone else will do it!”
Although Deputy Palace Master Xie comes from a scholarly family, his speech and behavior are not very scholarly. In addition to being bureaucratic, he is also quite a bit of a gangster. He can be regarded as an alien among aliens. I guess he is also a person with a story.
.
The Taoist priest in charge was full of grievances: "Deputy Palace Master Xie, you are so angry for no reason. No one expected that, Master Qi, he is so uninhibited in his dress."
It's okay if I don't say this, but when I say this, Xie Jiaofeng's anger rises again, "Let your mother be uninhibited."
He lowered his voice sharply again, "Zhenren Qi encountered an assassin on the way. He was blown up by a firearm. Although Zhenren Qi is fine, he must be on fire in his stomach. You are still so blind. If you really don't want to do it anymore, write now."
I approved the resignation on the spot, and there are still many people queuing up to do it!"
The Taoist priest in charge was a little scared now and didn't know what to say for a while.
Another officer hurriedly smoothed things over and said, "Deputy Palace Master, please calm down. Now is not the time for us to have internal strife. There are many things to do next to welcome Master Qi."
The previous officer also said, "Deputy Palace Master, it's my fault. If you want to criticize me, you must first let me greet all the real people and carry out your instructions. You can't change the general on the spot."
Xie Jiaofeng calmed down a little and said, "Why don't you go quickly? Do you want me to personally direct it?"
The two immediately turned and left.
Xie Jiaofeng was not idle either and walked quickly in the direction where Qi Xuansu left.
