A knife in love

Chapter 946

Seeing Yuanjue's stubbornness, Li Qiufeng sighed inwardly, thinking to himself that this master might not know what kind of powerful people are hiding inside and outside the city of Xiuwu County.However, since Yuanjue was determined not to leave Xiuwu County first, Li Qiufeng could not force it. He could only persuade Yuanjue to stay in Ziyang Temple and not easily conflict with the people in the city.

When the three of them were talking, they suddenly heard footsteps outside the door, so they stopped talking.After a while, someone knocked on the door, but it was Miao Zhu and the old servant who brought fragrant tea for the three of them.Li Qiufeng thanked them, and after Miaozhu left, the three of them chatted for a while, and finally Yuanjue and Huang Xu stood up and said goodbye.Li Qiufeng sent them all the way out of the Town God's Temple, seeing their figures disappear into the night, and then returned to the temple to rest.

It was almost midnight at this time, Li Qiufeng was lying on the bed with his clothes on, carefully thinking about the events of the past few days.Shadows of Mrs. Nie, Ji Dingzhong, Zhang Baixing, Hu Kun, Han Qusi, Huang Chong and others flitted in front of him one by one.In terms of martial arts, these people are not considered to be any powerful characters in the arena. There are even a few people who can be said to be powerless, but they are all meticulous in thinking and acting strangely. Compared with Liu Sheng Zongyan and other martial arts giants Even more terrifying.Right now, the leader of the Japanese pirates has not shown up, and it is not known whether he is related to the Yagyu clan.If Yagyu Zongyan was manipulating behind the scenes, things would be even more difficult.

Li Qiufeng's thoughts were hard to calm down, the more he thought about it, the more anxious he became, and finally fell into a deep sleep. In his dream, he seemed to have returned to the Jingxin Temple under Hutou Rock, surrounded by darkness, he looked for a way out, and bumped into a thick stone wall every time.He had no choice but to clenched the Xiuchun knife in his hand, and walked forward slowly step by step.

When he woke up, although the sky was not bright, the outside of the window was already hazy and white.Li Qiufeng turned over and sat up, feeling a little dizzy in his head, and his mouth was extremely bitter.He walked to the table, poured a cup of tea and drank it down, the anxiety in his heart eased a bit.He paced slowly in the room, thinking to himself that the evil heretics hidden in Dajiashan had been defeated by Ji Dingzhong in one fell swoop, and now Ji Dingzhong had already opened a big net, just waiting for the Japanese pirates to arrive.Listening to Huang Xu's talk about Ji Dingzhong's plan in the magistrate's office last night, Ji Dingzhong's plan of "killing birds with one stone" is really vicious.He wants to use the Japanese pirates to get rid of the three families of Lu, Zhao, and Du, and then use Huashan, Kunlun, Emei, Qingcheng and other major sects to eliminate the Japanese pirates.I have to discuss countermeasures with Liu Yong and others, so as not to fall into Ji Dingzhong's trap and become his murder tool.

Thinking of this, Li Qiufeng couldn't wait any longer.He quietly pushed open the door and saw that there was no sound in the yard, so he walked out quickly.

At this time, the sky was not yet bright, and there seemed to be a thin layer of mist between the sky and the earth, making the surrounding situation a bit vague and difficult to distinguish.Li Qiufeng walked through the front yard and saw that the gate was bolted.He opened the door latch, gently pushed the temple door open, and after walking out, he gently closed the temple door again, just as he was about to turn around and go north of the city, he suddenly saw a person standing in front of the temple door.

Li Qiufeng's heart trembled, his right hand had already grasped the handle of the Xiuchun Knife.

The man was standing at the foot of the stone steps in front of the temple gate, dressed in green, with his hands in his sleeves.Seeing Li Qiufeng stretch out his hand to hold the handle of the knife, he immediately took two steps back, and said in his mouth: "My next Zhang Hao, I have seen Li Baihu."

Only then did Li Qiufeng see clearly that this person was Zhang Hao, Xiaoqi of Jinyiwei, and he let go of his hanging heart.He quickly walked down the stone steps and said to Zhang Hao, "Have you found Mr. Xu?"

Zhang Hao said: "I have met Mr. Xu yesterday, and he wants to bring Li Baihu to see him."

Li Qiufeng was taken aback, and said, "Go to see Mr. Xu now?"

Zhang Hao nodded, and said in his mouth: "After returning to the city last night, I originally wanted to come to Li Baihu to discuss this matter. But it was getting late, and I was afraid of disturbing Li Baihu's rest, so I waited until early today. The door was bolted, so I couldn't enter the temple, so I had to wait in front of the temple gate. I didn't expect Li Baihu to come out so early, so I jumped in fright."

Li Qiufeng thought to himself that the Japanese pirates are about to come in large numbers, and Ji Dingzhong is secretly playing tricks again, wanting to reap the benefits of the fisherman.At this critical juncture, it is time to rely on the power of Jin Yiwei to fight against the Japanese pirates outside and against the Nie family inside.It is necessary to meet Xu Yingyang first, and after making a big plan, it is not too late to discuss it with Liu Yong and others.

Thinking of this, Li Qiufeng said to Zhang Hao: "In this case, I will go with my brother to see Mr. Xu."

Seeing that Li Qiufeng agreed, Zhang Hao breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Master Xu is now leading people to station at Feiyunpu in the west of the city, and I will bring Li Baihu to meet him."

The two walked west along the street outside the Town God's Temple.At this time, the sky was only hazy and somewhat bright, and there was no one on the street.The two walked side by side, talking and talking, but they were not lonely.When he passed by the county yamen, he saw that there were still eight policemen standing at the gate of the yamen, guarding them tightly.Li Qiufeng thought to himself, although these police officers guarded the magistrate's office tightly, if Liu Sheng's family attacked, these police officers would definitely not be able to resist.It's a good idea to let the four families of Fengmen Village and the Liusheng clan fight to the death.

When the two of them left the west gate, the sky was already bright, and there were already shadows of pedestrians on the road.It's just that the fog in the mountains outside the city was quite heavy. Along the way, before they knew it, their hair and clothes were slightly damp.

After five or six miles out of the west gate, Zhang Hao took Li Qiufeng and turned into a small road on the right.The two walked half a mile along the path, passing through a small forest, but saw a frozen river not far away.A stone bridge spans the river, and a person stands on the stone bridge, wearing a deep hat and coir raincoat, with his back to Li Qiufeng and Zhang Hao, and he is looking into the distance with his hands behind his back.

Zhang Hao stopped, and said to Li Qiufeng: "Master Xu is waiting in front, I can't go there, please Li Baihu to go by himself."

Li Qiufeng nodded and said, "Thank you brother for leading the way."

After he finished speaking, he walked towards the stone bridge.At this time, the sun was rising from the east, and it just happened to shine from behind Li Qiufeng, dyeing the river, stone bridge, and wilderness not far away in golden yellow.

Li Qiufeng walked to the edge of the stone bridge and stopped.The woods behind him covered the rising sun, and Li Qiufeng's shadow disappeared on the ground.

The man on the stone bridge still didn't turn his head, and was looking into the distance with his hands behind his back.

In an instant, Li Qiufeng felt a cold murderous aura pressing over the man.Only then did he realize that there was a long sword with a white sheath lying horizontally on the bridge railing beside the man.

The scabbard of this long sword is made of white wood, and the hilt is wrapped with a black cloth belt, matching the black and white of the scabbard, which is very eye-catching.

Li Qiufeng clenched the Xiuchun knife, stared at the man coldly, and said word by word: "Yuqingzi, when did you become a Jinyiwei?"

The man turned around slowly, raised his head slightly, revealing the face under the deep hat.I saw his eyebrows slanted, his face was like a crown of jade, he was the traitor of the Wudang sect, Yu Qingzi.

Yuqingzi looked at Li Qiufeng, smiled slightly, and said: "Poverty is just using the name of Jinyiwei to lure you into the bait."

Li Qiufeng said: "It turns out that Zhang Hao belongs to you. It is not Xu Yingyang who wants to see me, but Liu Shengzongyan."

Yu Qingzi shook his head and said: "You are wrong. Mr. Liu Sheng has other important matters, how can he have time to see you, an unknown junior? It is because the poor Taoist thinks that you are too intrusive, so he wants to kill you. Let Zhang Hao invite you here."

Li Qiufeng raised his eyebrows and said, "Has Monk Guangzhi come?"

Yuqingzi didn't expect that Li Qiufeng would ask about the whereabouts of Monk Guangzhi, but he was a little surprised.He shook his head and said: "Where Master Guangzhi has gone, the poor Taoist doesn't know."

Li Qiufeng said: "It's a pity, it's a pity. You could have picked up a big bargain, but it's a pity that you missed the opportunity. If you can leave here alive today, you will definitely regret it when you think about it in the future."

Yu Qingzi smiled slightly, and said: "You are extremely cunning, but there is no one to help you today, so don't think about trying to get cheap with your words. Let's have a good fight with sword and sword. It's serious. "

Li Qiufeng said: "Monk Guangzhi confronts Master Xuanji, are you there?"

Yuqingzi said: "Pindao was indeed there that day. Monk Xuanji's martial arts are pretty good, but it's a pity that his internal strength is not as good as that of Master Guangzhi. The two of them used Prajna palms against Prajna palms, and in No. 13, the fourth move of 'Dharma Bowl' When changing, the two palms intersected, and Monk Xuanji was shocked back three steps by Master Guangzhi, spitting out blood. Master Guangzhi took the opportunity to catch up and hit him twice on the chest, killing him in the long pavilion."
