Chapter 1155 Rules
The powerful messenger had a copper and iron bone, but in the end he could not withstand the sharpness of the cold blade.
Qi Ning held the cold blade in his hand and inserted it into the throat of the powerful messenger, but instantly pulled the cold blade out of his throat. He took a little under his feet between the powerful messenger's abdomen and floated away with the force. The sword in the other hand of the powerful messenger fell to the ground, and raised his hand to cover his throat. His face was full of disbelief. A hole was poked open to the throat, and blood gushed out. Even if he used the palm of the palm fan to cover it, he could still not block the splatter of blood.
The boy Chibao and Hua Xiangrong were also stunned.
They obviously could not have imagined that the powerful messenger who had the advantage would be killed in the hands of Qi Ning in this instant.
After Qi Ning jumped away, she was panting, but her eyes were staring at the powerful messenger like a knife.
The powerful messenger shook his feet, covering his throat, with an incredible look on his face, but the raised eyes stared at Qi Ning resentfully, and he actually walked towards Qi Ning. However, after only three or four steps, he staggered and finally fell to the ground. When his huge body fell to the ground, he made a bang sound. The huge body twitched on the ground for a few times and stopped moving.
The powerful envoy, one of the Six Ksitigarbha envoys, was assassinated by Qi Ning in this way.
The archers around them did not dare to act rashly. They watched the powerful messenger pinched Qi Ning's throat and thought that Qi Ning would definitely die. However, in the blink of an eye, the one who fell to the ground and died was the powerful messenger. Many people did not see clearly what was going on.
Hua Xiangrong felt cold all over her body. Instead of stepping forward, she took two steps back. The boy holding the treasure face was cold and even a little pale. She suddenly shot several arrows at Qi Ning. After Qi Ning dealt with the powerful envoy, she naturally knew that the boy holding the treasure would not give up. She was wary and had already flashed, and she was already hiding behind a big tree.
He let his breathing go smoothly. What happened at that moment was a quick and decisive counterattack. It was also a bit incredible to calm down at this time.
At this moment, he heard a sharp sound of bamboo flutes. Hua Xiangrong and Chibao Boy's faces changed. At first, the sound of bamboo flutes came from one direction, but soon the sound of bamboo flutes came from several places in succession. Hua Xiangrong bit his lip and ordered: "All retreat!" He turned around and retreated deep into the forest. Chibao Boy looked a little unwilling, but he waved his hand. The group of archers quickly followed Chibao Boy to retreat deep into the forest.
Qi Ning breathed a sigh of relief.
He already knew the meaning of the bamboo flute sound. If nothing unexpected happens, the incident on the Sun and Moon Peak has been discovered by the Miao people. The bamboo flute sound should be a signal sent by the Miao people. Many Miao people should be coming here to reinforce. Hua Xiangrong obviously did not have direct conflict with the Miao people, so he quickly withdrew.
Dizang's plan was obviously to seize the short time and launch a surprise attack on Qi Ning. There was no doubt that according to the plan, the assassination of Qi Ning must be completed before the Miao people reinforced.
However, the situation obviously did not follow the design of Dizang. Not only did Hua Xiangrong, the group of people, not only did not kill Qi Ning within the established time, but instead were killed by Qi Ning. Now that the Miao people have arrived, Hua Xiangrong and others have to retreat in a defeat.
Qi Ning did not pursue him. He suffered a round of attacks, his physical strength and energy were exhausted, and the opponent was unable to defend against cold arrows, so do not chase the enemy.
In just a moment, Hua Xiangrong and his group had already left clean. Not long after, they saw the figure flashing again. A group of people rushed into the forest. Qi Ning did not continue to hide. At this point, there was no need to hide their heads and tails. When the group of people saw Qi Ning coming out from behind the big tree, they were already surrounded. Qi Ning glanced at him and found that the people came from Miao people. Compared with the boy Chibao and others disguised as Miao people, this group of people was obviously the real Miao people.
When the Miao people saw the corpses everywhere on the ground, they were naturally shocked. Seeing the huge body of the Dali Envoy lying on the ground, they were also shocked. Some of the Miao people held swords and some held bows to surround Qi Ning. One of them asked coldly: "Who are you? How dare you trespass into the forbidden area?"
"Put down the weapons!" Someone saw Qi Ning holding a cold blade and shouted sternly: "Don't you throw away the weapons yet!"
Qi Ning put away the cold blade, raised his hands, and said loudly: "We are friends but not enemies, where is the Great Miao King?"
"Who are you and why do you want to meet our Damiao King?" Someone shouted sternly: "We will execute you when we trespassed in forbidden areas!"
"When you meet the Damiao King, you will kill or cut it. Let the Damiao King fall." Qi Ning said loudly: "You send someone to tell the Damiao King that Qi Ning asks for a meeting!"
Someone in the crowd was surprised and said, "Qinning? Which Qi Ning?" One person walked towards Qi Ning. Qi Ning saw that the man was thin and had a familiar appearance. However, the man also stared at Qi Ning and looked at Qi Ning. Qi Ning took off the hat on his head and smiled, "Are you a white-fanged strong man?"
The man was stunned and said in a lost voice: "Is it... the waiter of Jinyi?"
The person in front of me was Baiyali, one of the six major men in Cangxi Miao Village.
Baiyali has a great reputation in Cangxi Miao Village. When the Da Miao King was killed, the Dandu Gu brothers fought against each other. The situation was critical. It was Baiyali who stood up and suggested that the Miao family witch preside over justice. This person was extremely calm and knew the right and wrong. When Qi Ning saw that it was this person, he felt a little broad-minded and bowed according to the etiquette of the Miao people and said, "I haven't seen him for a long time, so I have always been good at Baiyali's head?"
Baiyali was shocked, then glanced at the corpses around him, frowned and said, "Why did the Marquis appear here? Who are these people?"
"I got the news that someone wanted to harm the Great Wizard, so he came to report the news." Qi Ning knew that the pressure of dialogue was not true at this time: "I didn't expect that before I saw the Great Wizard, I was attacked by these people on the hillside."
"Someone wants to harm the great witch?" Bai Yali said in surprise: "Who are they?"
Qi Ning sighed, "It's a long story. Baiya Litou Man, can I let me see the Damiao King first? By the way, I came here and brought a few followers. They were waiting at the foot of the mountain, but I wonder...?"
"There is also a fight at the foot of the mountain." Baiya said: "People died on both sides. When we arrived, many people ran away. I had sent people to chase him, but I caught three people. They pretended to be Miao people and asked who they were. They didn't speak, and they didn't know if it was yours."
Qi Ning frowned and thought to himself that Qi Feng was also attacked. It seems that Dizang not only wants to take his life, but also wants to kill the followers who follow him.
Qi Ning said: "Please ask the Baiyalito man to take me to see if it is my person?"
"Marty, do you know that Riyue Peak is the place where our Miao family's great witch lives." Bai Yali ignored Qi Ning's request and looked solemn on his face: "The rules of the Miao family, without the permission of the Great witch, anyone who trespasses into forbidden areas will be severely punished."
Qi Ning frowned and said, "Serious punishment? The white-headed man means, is it wrong for me to report the news?"
"If someone really intends to harm the Great Witch, the Marquis can discuss with the Great Witch first, and we will naturally strengthen the protection of the Great Witch." Bai Yali said seriously: "Now the Great Witch and we know nothing about it. The Marquis and your subordinates appear at Riyue Peak. Not only that, there are corpses everywhere here. It's a bad thing to say who is right and who is wrong, I'm afraid it's hard to explain clearly."
Qi Ning was angry, but knew that it was not appropriate to have direct conflicts with the Miao people at this time, and said, "When you see the Miao King, you can always explain the right and wrong."
"The Riyue Peak has been assigned to round up people." Baiyali said: "No matter who it is, it is not that easy to go out after entering the stream and mountains. It is natural for the Marquis to see the Damiao King. We dare not be disrespectful to the Marquis. After seeing the Damiao King, the Damiao King will ask the Great Witch for how to deal with this matter." He raised his hand and said: "Marquis, I can take you to see the Damiao King now, but... I can only disrespect you first and offend you more."
"offend?"
"You trespassed into the Sun and Moon Peak. Before the great witch fell, we can only tie you up first." Baiya said: "Although it is so disrespectful, it is a rule passed down from generation to generation by our Miao people. I dare not destroy the identity of the Marquis. I would like to forgive me." With a wave of his hand, several Miao men had already taken the vine rope and walked forward. It seems that they really wanted to tie Qi Ning up.
Qi Ning's face suddenly looked ugly.
"Blackhead, you seem to have forgotten that I am an official of the court." Qi Ning's voice was slightly cold: "Xichuan is the territory of Great Chu. Whether it is the Han family or the Miao family, they are all people of Great Chu. I was ordered by the court to come to Xichuan to temporarily manage Xichuan affairs. Even if it is the seventy-two caves of the Miao family, I have to obey my instructions. You have now ordered me to tie me up, but I don't know where to place the court?"
Qi Ning knew very well that the Miao family's Seventy-Two Caves had not yet fully formed a sense of belonging to the Great Chu. To make the Miao family's Seventy-Two Caves completely surrender, although they had to give favors, they had to be intimidated. Only by giving them both kindness and power can they truly surrender.
Although I came to Sun and Moon Peak without reporting, it seemed that the rules of the Miao family were indeed broken in theory, but if my dignified imperial lord was really tied to see the Miao King, once it spread, it would inevitably lose all the face of the court, and even make many Miao people feel disdainful. This is no longer just a matter of personal face, but a matter of the imperial court's majesty.
Bai Yali's face was also a little ugly, but the people around him were eyeing him and did not show awe because of Qi Ning's identity.
Qi Ning tidied up his clothes, put on his hat again, and said lightly: "I'm going to see King Damiao like this now. If you really want to tie me up, you can come up and give it a try?"
Bai Yali held the knife in one hand and the fist in the other hand, and said solemnly: "Mr. Marquis is trying to make me embarrassed."
