I use my daughter's body to cut down the rivers and lakes

Chapter 107 Linghu Shuo

Of course Liu Qi didn't know that such interesting things happened after she left.

In fact, she had already discovered someone on the fifth floor of the Hidden Martial Pavilion, and through his aura, she also guessed that the person was Yinglong who was outside Nangong Villa that day.

Also, how could such an important place as the Zangwu Pavilion be left unattended?

Liu Qi followed Bai Ze all the way to the Zangwu Pavilion last night, and there was not even a single guard along the way. She guessed at that time that the guard was most likely hiding in the Zangwu Pavilion, but she didn't guess that it was Ying Long himself.

Ying Long was in the capital, but Bai Ze asked him for help.

Is there a rift between the four Tianzun generals?

It was unlikely, otherwise Bai Ze would not have agreed to go to the Cangwu Pavilion guarded by Ying Long to borrow secret books.

Mostly because the people above did not allow them to interfere in the affairs of the capital, but Bai Ze could not bear the abuse of the people in the capital, so he could only act without permission. As a last resort, he found Liu Qi and asked her for help.

The more Liu Qi thought about it, the more likely he felt that this was possible.

Sure enough, people can't just look at the surface. Bai Ze, a cold-faced guy, actually has a compassionate side.

……

Following a familiar route, Liu Qi climbed over the outer wall and entered Liu Mansion.

As soon as she reached the door of the small courtyard, she paused and frowned. After a while, her brows relaxed and she reached out to push open the courtyard door. Cuixiang with an anxious look on her face poked her head out of the house when she heard the noise. After seeing Liu Qi pushing the door open, she let out a long sigh of relief, and then her eyes gradually turned red...

"Miss, where have you been? I'm so anxious!" Cuixiang trotted to Liu Qi and asked without caring about etiquette, her voice was hoarse with a hint of crying.

There was a bottomless ocean hidden in Liu Qi's eyes, and she said quietly: "When did you come back? Didn't I let you go back to take care of your mother?"

At the same time there was only one thought in my mind.

Where is Zhang Cheng?

In the Liu Mansion, Zhang Cheng's biggest use as a wandering soul is not only to deliver news, but also to provide cover for Liu Qi's actions.

I can't handle such a small thing. It seems that my life is too comfortable and I have forgotten my identity!

A bone-chilling coldness quickly passed through Liu Qi's eyes.

"This slave came back early in the morning." After looking around, he found that Liu Qi was not injured. Cuixiang said with relief, stroking her chest, "I heard that Butler Zhang was taken away by people from the Six Doors. I was worried that no one would help the lady." I came back specially to deliver food."

Every time Cuixiang went back to take care of her mother, she asked Butler Zhang to send someone to deliver food to Liu Qi. This was because Zhang Cheng personally went to Qizhou to pick up Liu Qi. In addition, Zhang Cheng was Liu Zongxun's confidant and not Zhou's. People, so Zhang Cheng, the great butler, would not arouse others' suspicion if he took more care of Liu Qi.

Zhang Cheng was taken away by six doors?

Liu Qi captured the key information in Cuixiang's words.

"Miss, where have you been so early?" Cuixiang, who was heartbroken, still didn't forget to ask Liu Qigang about his whereabouts.

"I felt a little bored when I woke up today, so I went for a walk." Liu Qi replied with a calm expression.

Cuixiang naturally had doubts in her heart, but after all, the relationship between the two was master and servant. Coupled with Cuixiang's poor imagination, she could not have imagined that her young lady would be a martial arts master who could fly over walls and walls. In the end, she could only choose to believe Liu Qi's words.

"By the way, why was Butler Zhang taken away by Liumen?" Liu Qi asked casually as he walked towards the main house.

Cuixiang, who was following her step by step, shook her head: "I don't know this. I heard others said that Butler Zhang was taken away by people from the Six Gates, so I remembered that if Butler Zhang hadn't been arranged in advance when he was taken away, If you give me food, you will be hungry."

"Your lady, I have hands and feet, don't you know that I can go to the kitchen by myself?"

"Ah, Miss, how can you go to the kitchen yourself!"

……

Zhang Cheng was released from six doors at noon that day.

Liu Qi saw him in the evening.

"When you first arrived in the capital, didn't you meet a group of assassins? That's why the people from Liumen came here." Zhang Cheng bowed and replied, then he looked up and saw a delicate white hand about to risk his life. The steaming tea cup was pushed to the edge of the table not far in front of him.

"Have a cup of tea and talk slowly."

Zhang Cheng didn't dare to look at it or refuse. He took the tea cup from the table in a panic. He didn't care about the tea still boiling in the cup and drank it in one gulp. Then his facial features instantly wrinkled up.

He gritted his teeth and suppressed the look of pain on his face, and then continued: "After Linghu Shuo returned to Beijing, he rectified the interior of the Six Gates. Many incompetent arresters were punished for this. The previous case It has been suppressed by the master, but now Linghu Shuo sent people to dig it out."

Liu Qi had also investigated this case herself. When she learned that the boss behind Tiancheng Gambling House who issued the assassination mission was Zhou Xianzong, she roughly guessed that this matter was probably related to the Zhou family, either Zhou herself or someone close to Zhou. People, or...

In short, I came not for Liu Qi, but for "Liu Qiniang".

The person who took over the task from Tiancheng Gambling House was none other than a small leader of the Black Snake Gang, the underground leader in the south of the city. According to the information Liu Qi later learned, this small leader seemed to have some bad relations with the leader of the Black Snake Gang, Black Snake. Not sure.

Later, the old black snake asked Lu Yishan to investigate the matter, hoping to find out the murderer of his son. Unexpectedly, before the result was found, Lu Yishan was killed by Liu Qi, while the old black snake was killed by the master of the six doors. He was taken down, and he is still being held in a sky jail with his life and death unknown.

Speaking of Lu Yishan, Liu Qi suddenly remembered something and asked, "I asked you to send people to keep an eye on the Yongxing pawnshop outside the city. Has anything unusual happened recently?"

"No...there's really one thing." Zhang Cheng said.

"explain."

"Yes." Zhang Cheng's body trembled, and then he reported back, "The day before yesterday, a person came to Yongxing Pawnshop Manager Dong. His sneaking behavior was very suspicious, and the attitude of Manager Dong of the pawnshop was also very strange. I talked to this person for two times. After saying that, his face changed on the spot and he was kicked out of the pawn shop."

"Does Shopkeeper Dong know this person?" Liu Qi asked.

Zhang Cheng shook his head and replied: "It should be that they don't know each other. Assuming that the two of them really know each other and have a grudge, there is no need to say a few words before changing their faces."

"What can we find out from Shopkeeper Dong?"

Zhang Cheng nodded and responded: "I pretended to be a guest and came in to ask, but shopkeeper Dong only said that this person was here to cause trouble, so he said no more." Liu Qi heard the words and said in a deep voice: "Shopkeeper Dong probably didn't lie. There is a problem. It’s this mysterious man who suddenly appeared!”

"Your Majesty!" Zhang Cheng flattered and said with a smile, "This person is indeed very problematic. Our people lost track of him before he could follow a few steps. This person must be a martial arts person with good physical skills!"

The question is, what would a martial artist do with shopkeeper Dong of an ordinary small pawnshop?

Could it be related to the pawn tickets left by Lu Yishan?

Liu Qi remembered that Cao Cheng, the leader of the Caobang Chamber of Commerce, said that Lu Yishan's background was very complicated, and he had contacts with many people overtly and covertly, including many who even Cao Chengdu could not afford to offend. Therefore, after Lu Yishan's accident, he had no choice but to die. No one would Let him fall into the hands of someone alive!

Because of this, Liu Qi only asked people to keep an eye on Yongxing Pawn Shop and did not come to the door with the pawn tickets.

She expected that with Lu Yishan's identity and ability, even if there was something hidden in the pawn shop, it would probably not be helpful to her martial arts skills.

He kept the pawn tickets until now simply because Liu Qi felt that it would be a pity to throw them away like this. What if he could get some benefits?

Of course, curiosity is also indispensable.

It can make many forces in Beijing have murderous intentions, which shows that Lu Yishan must have something extraordinary in his hands.

……

The next day, the people from Door Six came to the door again.

Only this time, it wasn't a small character like Lu Yishan, but the world-famous "Purple Eyes Blue Sky" Linghu Shuo came to visit in person.

Even Liu Zongxun, who was rarely at home during the day, stayed at home and received the big man in charge of the six doors.

Liu Zongxun and Zhou stood side by side in the courtyard outside the lobby. After a while, they heard footsteps coming from outside the Zhaobi wall. Then Zhang Cheng walked out first, bowed and turned around to make a gesture of invitation, and then Liu Zongxun The couple saw a slender figure standing out and walking in front of them like wind.

"Master Liu, Mrs. Liu, I'm disturbing you today!"

Zhou's eyes lit up instantly.

The man in front of you has a high nose, a jawline as sharp as a knife, deep and enchanting purple eyes, and blond hair that make people unable to take their eyes away. He exudes a cold aura and has a handle hanging from his waist. Short sword.

Although he had long known that Linghu Shuo was a member of a foreign race, Liu Zongxun was still startled when they first met him. After a brief moment of confusion, he immediately darkened his face, and then solemnly replied: "Master Linghu, I've been looking up to you for a long time, please !”

Linghu Shuo seemed to be accustomed to the strange expressions on other people's faces when they saw him. He immediately smiled and followed Liu Zongxun into the lobby.

After taking a sip of tea, Linghu Shuo confessed the purpose of his trip to Liu Zongxun: "I also know that Mr. Liu is in trouble, so I came here in person to make Mr. Liu worry-free!"

"Please forgive me for not understanding Mr. Linghu's intention of arresting the head." Liu Zongxun blew the hot air from the cup and said without raising his head.

Linghu Shuo had already expected Liu Zongxun's reaction. He smiled slightly, took something out of his arms and put it on the table at hand, and then said slowly: "Master Liu, have you forgotten that Ling Ai was attacked?" , after searching through six doors, we found this deed somewhere, which says that someone spent five thousand taels of silver to take the life of your beloved Liu Qiniang!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou's eyelids beside Liu Zongxun twitched suddenly, and he almost jumped up on the spot.

A hand suddenly stretched out, placed it on Zhou's hand that was holding the edge of the chair, and patted it gently. Zhou turned his head and met Liu Zongxun's eyes, and then lowered his head silently without any movement. .

This scene naturally did not escape Linghu Shuo's eyes. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, trying his best to hide the joy in his heart.

At this time, Liu Zongxun's eyes fell on Linghu Shuo, his nose twitched slightly and he took a breath, and then said in a deep voice: "I have decided not to pursue this matter further. I hope that Lord Linghu can forgive me and not chase Liu Shuo. Don’t let me go.”

Linghu Shuo's face gradually turned cold when he heard this. His left hand that was originally on his leg unconsciously touched the short knife at his waist and gently rubbed it on the blade. Then he lowered his head and his voice became stiff and cold: "Things It’s a matter of human life, and Mr. Liu just casually said that there will be no further investigation and just let it pass?”

As he spoke, Linghu Shuo raised his head and stared at Liu Zongxun, solemnly saying: "Even as a father, I don't think Mr. Liu is qualified to say the words 'no further investigation' on behalf of Ling Ai!"

"What do you want?" Liu Zongxun's face was as dark as water, "Do you want to hear these four words from my daughter's mouth before you give up?"

"Yes!" Linghu Shuo stood up suddenly and said righteously.

……

"Mr. Linghu wants to see me?" When Zhou sent someone to invite Liu Qi, Liu Qi suddenly showed a surprised look.

"Yes, it is Master Linghu who wants to see you, Miss." The person who came was a servant girl. She had an awkward smile on her face, glanced around, and then lowered her voice, "Miss, sir, please I want to inform you, slave, that when I meet Master Linghu later, I just need to say that you will no longer pursue the matter!"

Although she was a little confused, Liu Qi nodded.

It seemed that Master Linghu had found something, so Liu Zongxun chose to let her calm down and say that she would not pursue the matter further.

Haha...Father's love is really as strong as a mountain!

Liu Qi followed the maid to the front lobby. She thought it was just a boring meeting, but when she stepped into the lobby threshold, she discovered something was wrong.

call--

Liu Qi froze on the spot, took a deep breath to suppress the crazily churning energy in his body, and then slowly raised his eyes...

A pair of purple eyes had been waiting for a long time. As the two people's eyes met, the purple eyes seemed to shrink quickly!

Surprised, disbelieving, horrified...

Liu Qi read too many emotions from the other person's eyes. She had never seen a person's eyes so changeable!

What surprised Liu Qi even more was the aura rising from Linghu Shuo's body.

Simple, pure, and familiar!

The auras of Liu Qi and Liu Qi are attracted to each other from a distance, as if they are lovers who have been separated for many years, trying their best to break through all obstacles and embrace each other!

Liu Qi was suppressing the infuriating energy in her dantian, and she could see it from Linghu Shuo's face. Like her, he seemed to be trying his best to suppress the aura that was trying to escape from his body.

Liu Qi's eyes slowly dropped to the knife hanging on Linghu Shuo's waist.

It looks so familiar, as if I’ve seen it somewhere before!

Just as Liu Qi was thinking about where he had seen this sword, Liu Zongxun's displeased voice came to his ears: "Why are you still standing outside? Come in and see Lord Linghu!"

Liu Qi had completely suppressed the infuriating energy in his Dantian, then stepped across the threshold and walked to the center of the hall. He turned around to face Linghu Shuo, whose face was almost frosty, bowed slightly and saluted: "I've seen you before." Lord Linghu."

After finishing her words, Liu Qi's lips were still opening and closing.

Linghu Shuo's eyes suddenly froze. He could see clearly that the woman in front of him clearly said "Xiliu Villa" on her lips!
