Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 330
As the midnight approached, Xu Zhiqiong's room was covered with ashes of paper.

Previously, he thought he had thought of the translation method of the second half of the cipher text, but after translating two paragraphs, he found that he couldn't read it at all.

The deciphering method in the second half was still wrong, Xu Zhiqiong burned all the translations, and started to calculate again, Jiang Feili knocked on the door and said: "Qi Shuiyun, Lan Hongjin and Yu Chilan went to arrest the four Nufu followers, Qi Shuiyun's Qingyu The leaf is split, but not broken."

Green Jade Leaf is a talisman specially ordered by Yin Yang Division for Tsing Yi Pavilion. There are ten pieces in total, one belongs to Jiang Feili, and the other nine belong to nine sixth-rank Tsing Yi envoys.

A drop of the master's blood is sealed in the sapphire leaf. The nine sixth-rank Tsing Yi envoys don't carry the sapphire leaf with them at ordinary times, but hand it over to Jiang Feili for safekeeping. If the master is injured, the sapphire leaf will have cracks. If the master dies, the sapphire leaf will will disconnect.

Qi Shuiyun was injured, and Lan Hongjin and Yu Chilan's condition is probably not optimistic.

Since the expedition, there have been no casualties in Tsing Yi Pavilion. Xu Zhiqiong cherishes every subordinate like his own sisters.

Xu Zhiqiong put down the pen and paper and said, "Take all the sixth-grade Tsingyis and follow me!"

Just as Jiang Feili was about to gather her men, she was stopped by Xu Zhiqiong again: "Wait a minute! Where are the three of them going to arrest?"

"Drunken Ship Township."

"How far is it from here?"

"Drunken Boat Township is at the easternmost point of Chihuan County, and Ziquan Pavilion is at the westernmost point," Jiang Feili estimated, "about one hundred and twenty miles away."

"One hundred and twenty miles..." Xu Zhiqiong squeezed his chin, thought for a long time and said, "Except for Qi Shuiyun, there are still eight sixth-rank Tsingyis in the army. You choose two and follow me."

"Only two?" Jiang Feili was taken aback.

Xu Zhiqiong said: "Take Qiao Hongliu with you, and the rest will stay with you in Ziquan Pavilion!"

Jiang Feili was even more surprised: "I'm not going with you either?"

Xu Zhiqiong shook his head and said: "If you go with me, if the enemy army comes to attack Ziquan Pavilion, how can they resist?"

Jiang Feili frowned and said, "The enemy army? Just rely on a angry man to teach? Why are they crazy? How dare they send them to your door?"

"Don't underestimate the enemy, you and I don't have the capital to underestimate the enemy. Ziquan Pavilion is a hundred miles away from Zuichuan Township. If the enemy really invades, it will be too late for you and me to receive the news. When we rush back to rescue, we will only have to collect the corpses." things."

While talking, Xu Zhiqiong picked up the brush and ink, drew a sketch of Ziquan Pavilion, and marked a few key points: "You send old Qingyi to guard these key points, and the two teams take turns. Don't slack off.
You haven't cleared the poison, don't be too tired, and go back to the room to rest, sleep a moment is a moment! "

Jiang Feili said: "When I was on errands, it didn't matter if I didn't sleep for a few days and nights. I was worried about you. Qi Shuiyun was at the sixth rank, Lan Hongjin was at the eighth rank, and Yuchi Lan was considered the best among the ninth rank. You only brought three people there, can you save the three of them?"

Xu Zhiqiong was more worried about Yu Chilan than anyone else, but he couldn't bring more people.

Bringing low-quality ones is tantamount to adding burdens, and bringing high-quality ones, Ziquan Pavilion will be in danger.

Xu Zhiqiong laid out the tactics in detail, and then took Zhao Cuihuan and Li Xuefei, the sixth-rank Tsing Yi, and Qiao Hongliu, the ninth-rank Tsing Yi, and rushed to Drunken Boat Township.

Zuichuan Township is located along the shore of Guangxian Lake, and it is a good place for cruise ships. When Xu Zhiqiong set off, he first sent Tao Huayuan the news through Taohua.

Tao Huayuan mobilized the magic circle along the way to help Xu Zhiqiong rush to Zuichuan Township quickly, and asked the Onmyoji to inquire about the whereabouts of Qi Shuiyun, Lan Hongjin and Yuchi Lan in Zuichuan Township.

It took less than an hour for Xu Zhiqiong and other four people to arrive at Drunken Boat Township, while Tao Huayuan locked his target on a painting boat in Guangxian Lake.

"Thief boy, someone saw three women boarding that painting boat. One of them was very tall and strong. They said they were singing singers, but they stayed on the boat for several hours and didn't come out. Maybe it's bad luck."

Very tall and strong!

Xu Zhiqiong's heart hung up.

Dear senior sister, you have to live well!

The painting boat was far away from the shore. Tao Huayuan prepared a small boat for Xu Zhiqiong in advance. Xu Zhiqiong asked Zhao Cuihuan to meet him on the shore, and took Li Xuefei and Qiao Hongliu on the boat.

Zhao Cuihuan is a sixth grade, is it a waste to stay on the shore?
No waste at all, there must be a strong person on the shore to respond, if there is an ambush on the shore, even a sixth-rank may not be enough.

The small boat and the big ship were about to meet, Xu Zhiqiong looked on the deck of the big ship, there were no boatmen and servants on board.

Xu Zhiqiong and Li Xuefei relied on their agility and jumped onto the deck directly. Qiao Hongliu was a ninth-rank Confucianist, and her skills were not good enough. Xu Zhiqiong brought her up with a rope.

There was no one on the deck, so Xu Zhiqiong pushed open the hatch and led the two of them into the cabin.

This is a three-story painting boat. The function of the first floor is similar to that of a living room. On the left and right sides, tables and chairs are arranged according to the order of the guest of honor. In the center of the lobby, three dancers are lying prone, with bloodstains around each side.

A dancer was quite tall and strong, Xu Zhiqiong tightened his heart, stepped forward and turned the person over, he couldn't help but gasped.

What an ugly face!

Black face, thick eyebrows, round eyes, bulbous nose, square mouth, if it weren't for the clothes and hair accessories, she wouldn't look like a woman.

Looking up the neck, there is an Adam's apple, and when looking down, the foundation is majestic.

It's really not a woman!
This person had a fatal wound on his throat, and he had been dead for a long time, but the other two "song girls" were also men pretending to be dead.

Li Xuefei pointed to the wound on "Diva's" neck, and then pointed to his short knife.

This is the wound left by the willow blade unique to Tsing Yi Pavilion. The edge of the willow blade is very thin, and the wound left is deep and thin.

But there was something strange about one corpse, and the other two corpses were all killed with one knife, only this corpse had dozens of knife wounds.

How did you cut so many knives?

I dare not say anything else, Tsing Yi envoys are definitely professional in killing people, the cuts of the knife are so messy, it is really hard to think of a reason.

What happened in the end?

"You two stay here and don't move, I'll come as soon as I go." Xu Zhiqiong took a hairpin from the dancer's head, and then disappeared.

Qiao Hongliu said in a low voice, "Where did Captain Xu go?"

Li Xuefei said: "Lieutenant Xu knows Yin Yang art, let's just follow his orders."

Xu Zhiqiong entered the small black room, groped for the hairpin, conceived the scene at that time, focused on imagining the looks of the three Tsing Yis, and quickly found the corresponding picture.

Qi Shuiyun, Lan Hongjin, and Yu Chilan pretended to be singers and boarded the painting boat. Qi Shuiyun and Lan Hongjin looked good, wearing coarse clothes, holding a pipa in their arms, shy and reserved, like a fool I have seen a singing woman in a big scene.

Yu Chilan's clothes didn't fit well, her top was too short, almost revealing her waist, and her skirt was also too short, revealing her pair of natural feet.

The worst part is the way she holds the lute, holding the neck of the lute with one hand like a hammer.

Hasty, too hasty!
In the past few days, the battle went so smoothly, the three of them didn't pay attention to their opponents at all.

As the dancer turned around, Xu Zhiqiong saw the situation in the hall.

There were six men sitting in the hall, the leader seemed to be about [-] years old, with gray beard and hair, and was sharing a cup with the guests. He seemed to have completely ignored the three singers.

A servant urged Qi Shuiyun a few words, Qi Shuiyun sat in the hall, played the pipa, and began to sing seriously.

She can play the pipa, and judging from her fingering, her skills are quite good.

The other two sat on the left and right respectively, and Lan Hongjin also played a few tunes. Yu Chilan held the piano upside down, pressed the strings with her right hand, and fiddled with her left hand.

After a while, Qi Shuiyun got up and rushed towards the leader of the old man, the old man suddenly changed his face, blue face, narrow eyes, no eyebrows, corners of mouth grinning to the ears, revealing a ferocious smile.

Before Qi Shuiyun could stand still, she jumped back on tiptoe, she was frightened.

It's not her fault, Xu Zhiqiong was frightened even after taking a look at it in the small black room.

梼杌 Fierce Dao Ninth Rank Skill - Fierce Appearance!
This fear cannot be overcome.

At the same time, the three dancers surrounded the three Tsing Yis. They puffed out their chests, as if they were inhaling.

梼杌凉道八级技——Travel, they can draw strength from the fear of others.

Xu Zhiqiong had fought Nu Fu Nu Dao in Chihuan County, so he had some understanding of their skills.

The cultivation base of these three "dance girls" should be at the eighth rank. In terms of combat power alone, the eighth rank may not be able to beat the ninth rank's killing way, but after taking these two breaths, the combat power of the three increased sharply .

Yu Chilan was obviously weak, Lan Hongjin could barely fight, only Qi Shuiyun had the upper hand.

After fighting for a while, their skills failed, and the three of them slowed down, much slower than Lan Hongjin. Qi Shuiyun took the opportunity to kill one, and Lan Hongjin and Yuchi Lan killed another.

There was only one left, as long as Qi Shuiyun could kill him with a little bit of trickery, but Qi Shuiyun swung a short knife and slashed more than a dozen knives at the "dance girl" who was slashed by her.

How much hatred is this?

Why vent your anger so much?

Not only her, Lan Hongjin and Yu Chilan also slashed at the same corpse, and the remaining dancer stabbed Yu Chilan twice, but Yuchilan didn't respond.

This must also be the skill of the Wuwu Dao, but Xu Zhiqiong doesn't know the reason for the skill yet. Among the altars in Chishui County, the highest Taowu Dao practitioner is only rank eight.

In the end, it was Qi Shuiyun who came back to his senses first, and slashed and killed the dancer girl. At this moment, they were surrounded by six men in the hall.

After all, Qi Shuiyun is an old Tsing Yi, seeing that the situation is not good, he knocked over a man and rushed out of the cabin with Lan Hongjin and Yuchi Lan.

There was an ambush outside the cabin, forcing the three of them back.

During the fight, there were more than a dozen people in the cabin, all of them were cultivated, Qi Shuiyun had nowhere to go, so he led Lan Hongjin and Yuchi Lan up the stairs.

The "Dancing Girl" died, and the hairpin was left on the ground, and Xu Zhiqiong couldn't see what was going on on the stairs.

He immediately left the small black room, took Li Xuefei and Qiao Hongliu up the stairs, walked to the corner, Xu Zhiqiong's figure disappeared again, and two men suddenly appeared with fierce faces, scaring Li Xuefei and Qiao Hongliu back again and again.

Xu Zhiqiong suddenly appeared from behind, flashed his mandarin duck blade, and cut the throats of the two of them.

This is the experience accumulated over the past few days. When fighting against Taotie, try not to look directly at the opponent. Don't look at just a fierce face. The fear brought by the fierce appearance will greatly interfere with the battle.

Xu Zhiqiong signaled the two to follow him and continue upstairs. When they reached the second floor, they pushed open a guest room, and two men suddenly appeared, again showing a fierce look.

This time even Xu Zhiqiong was unprepared, the two men hid it too well.

A chill surged up, Xu Zhiqiong took two steps back, and the two men raised their knives and slashed at the head.

Both of these two men have seventh-rank cultivation bases, and their swords are not slow.

If Xu Zhiqiong dodges, the two Tsing Yis behind him will definitely suffer. Li Xuefei may be able to escape a blow with his sixth-rank killing skills, and Qiao Hongliu will undoubtedly die.

If Xu Zhiqiong used a weapon to parry, he would have to face two fierce faces all the time. Not only would his combat power be damaged, but he would also gain strength from fear.

Xu Zhiqiong still chose to parry, relying on his speed, he drew out his halberd to block the opponent's single sword, did not avoid the opponent's fierce look, and looked directly at the two of them.

The two intensified their skills, and Xu Zhiqiong was sweating profusely. Under extreme fear, Xu Zhiqiong's arms began to lose strength in just one breath.

Li Xuefei used his murderous aura to dispel the fear, and was about to step forward to help, when another burst of fear struck, four men with fierce looks rushed over from the corridor, two left and two right.

Six rank [-], besieging three people, the other party has the upper hand, Qiao Hongliu is still useless.

Xu Zhiqiong was weak, and Li Xuefei's arms were trembling. At a critical moment, he suddenly saw six men retreating from their fierce looks.

Taking advantage of this gap, Xu Zhiqiong called out the mandarin duck blade, and cut the necks of three people with extremely fast body shape. Li Xuefei beheaded two people, and the remaining one wanted to escape.

Want to escape?
Can you escape?

From the moment his back was turned to Xu Zhiqiong, he was already dead. Xu Zhiqiong rushed behind him and pierced his skull with a long halberd.

Li Xuefei wiped the blood on the blade of the willow leaf, feeling a little scared in his heart.

Qiao Hongliu asked: "What happened at the time? Why did those people suddenly stop?"

Xu Zhiqiong said with a smile: "Because I used the skill of the parade."

Qiao Hongliu exclaimed: "Xunli? The skills of Confucianism?"

"That's right!" Xu Zhiqiong smiled, "I'm a guest when I enter the door. Isn't it a breach of etiquette for them to treat guests like this?"

Qiao Hongliu looked at Xu Zhiqiong with admiration, but she didn't expect Captain Xu to be a Confucian senior.

Killing Dao and cultivating Confucianism, it is no wonder that Xiaowei Xu is full of Confucian demeanor.

He also practiced yin and yang, and in the future he must be the master of all schools!
In the future, she will discuss more knowledge with Captain Xu, and associate with a group of killers all day long, Qiao Hongliu feels that she is also much vulgar!
This girl thought too much, in fact, this is not Confucianism and Taoism at all, this is Xu Zhiqiong's sixth-grade skill, Xu Zhiqiong used the second-level realm, state of mind, and let the six men see the true God of Wuwu in their hearts.

The skill of Zhuwu Dao is so terrifying, the appearance of the true god of Zhuwu must be very hideous. Every practitioner of Zhuwu has a strong fear of the true god, so he gave up fighting in an instant.

Xu Zhiqiong searched around the guest room on the second floor, but found no Nufu believers, nor Yu Chilan and others.

He took the two of them to the third floor of the cabin.

The third cabin is the owner's bedroom. When Xu Zhiqiong walked to the door of the bedroom, the smell of blood came to his nostrils.

Xu Zhiqiong told Li Xuefei and Qiao Hongliu to back off, and he gently pushed open the hatch with his long halberd.

Inside the hatch, a sledgehammer struck head-on.

Xu Zhiqiong raised his halberd to parry, but with a bang, the sledgehammer shattered to pieces.

This sledgehammer was made of wood, and there were strings on the "hammer", and the strings snapped, almost hurting Xu Zhiqiong's eyes.

Yu Chilan dropped the "sledgehammer", picked up the willow blade and rushed to Xu Zhiqiong.

Xu Zhiqiong grabbed his senior sister's conscience and shouted, "Hold on! It's me!"
