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

Chapter 168 Reflection
As if she was frightened by this sudden scene, Shen Ying couldn't help but move behind Liu Qi, holding the corner of Liu Qi's clothes tightly with her little hands, sticking out half of her head, and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito: "That's not a gift. Our big brother in white here?"

The big brother in white in Shen Ying's mouth refers to Bai Ze, and the man lying on the ground is Ying Long, who was separated from Liu Qi outside Qingguo's mansion not long ago.

Liu Qi's eyes darkened slightly. The smell of blood he just smelled came from Ying Long. He was still wearing the black cloak. As the black blood stains on his side flowed out, Liu Qi felt that Ying Long's vitality was rapidly increasing. drain.

At this moment, Bai Ze, with the help of Kui Niu, carefully helped Ying Long sit up. Then he glanced at everyone in the underground palace hall, and finally fell on Liu Qi. Surprise suddenly appeared in his eyes. Color, then the pale lips trembled slightly, but finally did not speak.

"Brother, I'll do it."

Bai Ze withdrew his gaze from Liu Qi, then took a deep look at Kui Niu, who was about to sit down to heal Ying Long's luck, and stood calmly behind Ying Long.

Kui Niu was already half-bent and about to sit down, but he saw Bai Ze standing up first. Kui Niu's expression hesitated at first, but then he gave up his position without any hesitation.

Upon seeing this, Bai Ze opened his lips slightly, seeming to breathe a sigh of relief. Then his eyes became solemn, and he quickly sat cross-legged behind Ying Long, placing his palms on his back.

Seeing that the two of them had begun to perform exercises to heal their injuries, Kui Newton suddenly withdrew his gaze and glanced slightly sideways at the secret passage that the two of them had just come out of. After staring for a moment, he turned around and asked, "Empress, what is going on?"

Zhou Mi's beautiful eyes were fixed on Ying Long. After hearing what Kui Niu said, he shook his head and whispered, "Liu Zongxun lied to us. The emperor already knows about Wei Yang's injury."

Zhou Mi seemed to feel the murderous aura coming out of Kui Niu, and then he frowned, raised his eyes and stared at Kui Niu's blood-filled eyes, and said lightly: "Kui Niu, don't let your anger disturb your mind. Aren’t He Weiyang still alive and well?”

Zhou Mi immediately calmed down, lowered his eyes slightly, and saw Shen Ying huddled behind Liu Qi. After pondering for a moment, he said: "If someone hadn't tipped off the news at the birthday banquet, I'm afraid I wouldn't have the chance to be here now. Talked to you."

She paused for a moment and said calmly: "The movement sounded very similar to the one at Baixi Villa."

She pursed her lips tightly, pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Are Xiangxiang and Zhou... still alive?"

Kui Niu's eyes suddenly condensed when he heard this. The blood in his eyes instantly spread to his pupils, and a terrifying chilling aura emerged from his body.

Zhou Mi nodded, and then his eyes swept over Bai Ze and Ying Long, who were practicing martial arts to heal their injuries, and finally landed on Liu Qi.

Liu Qi's face was as calm as usual, and she raised her head slightly and said, "Please rest assured, Madam, this kind of thing will never happen to Liu Qi."

As she spoke, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, as if she was laughing at herself: "It's really hard for them to plan this for me!"

Seeing Liu Qi's indifferent expression with a hint of pride, Zhou Mi, who had a serious expression on his face, suddenly smiled, with a soft color in his eyes: "No wonder some people always say that even if I practice for the rest of my life... It won’t work either.”

Liu Qi frowned slightly when he heard this. Hearing what the Queen Mother meant, could it be that Lu Gong was the one who tipped off the news at the birthday banquet?
However, it is also possible that Lu Gong is deeply involved in this turmoil in Beijing. It is not surprising that he knows some inside stories, and with his superb disguise skills, he can also sneak into the Qingguo Duke's palace.

As soon as Zhou Mi said these words, Liu Qi saw Kui Niu's burly body shaking slightly, and the blood in his eyes dissipated a lot. Then his eyes opened slightly, and a muffled sound came from his chest. , the chilling feeling condensed around him and the blood in his eyes disappeared instantly.

Shen Ying, who heard Lu Gong's name, poked her head out from Liu Qi's waist again, looked at Zhou Mi and asked timidly: "Sister, have you met Grandpa Lu?"

She raised her eyebrows slightly and parted her lips slightly: "I originally planned to let you escort Xiangxiang to leave the capital, and at the same time avoid the turmoil in the capital. But now it seems... my idea is too naive."

Zhou Mi's eyes narrowed when he heard this, and then he slowly closed his eyes and sighed slightly: "I can't imagine that there is anything in this world that is more important than my closest relatives!"

Liu Qi shook her head: "They entered the stone gate one step ahead of me. I was delayed for a while by the influence of the bronze stone gate. When I was about to enter the stone gate, something changed inside."

She seemed to take a closer look at Shen Ying's face, the smile on her lips gradually grew, and then she said softly: "You and your mother don't look much alike, but you and Shen Liang are carved from the same mold. "

As he spoke, Zhou Mi slowly opened his eyes, stared into Liu Qi's eyes, and asked in a deep voice: "If one day someone asks you to choose between martial arts and your loved ones, how should you choose?"

Afterwards, Zhou Mi suppressed the smile on his lips, looked at Liu Qi and asked in a deep voice: "Qian Huan Craftsman" Lu Gong, I believe you should know this person. "

Seemingly because of Shen Ying's name, Zhou Mi raised the corners of her mouth slightly and looked at Shen Ying with soft eyes: "Are you Shen Liang's daughter?"

Zhou Mi's voice was very soft, and Liu Qiyi couldn't tell whether Zhou Mi was telling himself or mumbling to himself.

"Your Majesty, it's not appropriate to stay here for a long time." Kui Niu, who had returned to normal, nodded slightly to Zhou Mi, and then said respectfully, "In my opinion, your Majesty should join the general as soon as possible."

Shen Ying's eyes lit up: "Have you met my parents?"

"Cough cough cough..."

Zhou Mi nodded with a smile and was about to say something, but was interrupted by a cough.

Liu Qi followed the sound of coughing and saw that Ying Long, who had just passed out, had come to his senses and was holding his chest and coughing with his head down.

Bai Ze, who was sitting cross-legged behind Ying Long, had also retracted his hands and his face was pale.

Liu Qi's eyes lingered on Ying Long for a moment, and then he looked sideways at Zhou Mi, whose face was condensed, and his beautiful eyes were filled with unbreakable depth.

It wasn't just Zhou Mi's eyes that were like this.

Kui Niu, who was already squatting beside Ying Long, and Bai Ze, who had just been healing Ying Long's injuries, had the same expressions as Zhou Mi, but there was a bit more sadness in their eyes.

Although Ying Long had woken up from coma at this time, Liu Qi just took one look and knew that he had come back to his senses and that his life was not long.

"Second brother..." Bai Ze stood up slowly, moved to the other side of Ying Long and squatted down. He opened and closed his lips slightly. After shouting the word "Second brother", he could no longer say the rest of the words. .

Ying Long had stopped coughing. He looked sideways at Kui Niu and Bai Ze, and finally slowly raised his eyes to look at Zhou Mi.

Today, Liu Qi finally saw Ying Long's true face. An ordinary face would not leave the slightest impression in a huge crowd.

"Empress, I hope you can tell the general that Yinglong can no longer be controlled by him." Yinglong's face was radiant, his words were clear, and there was no sign that his end was imminent.

But Liu Qi understood that a person's face and eyes could be disguised, but they could not change the vitality that was rapidly draining from his body.

Sure enough, after Ying Long said these words, he suddenly stopped moving and kept his head raised and staring, but the light in his eyes was fading little by little.

As Kui Niu's generous hand gently brushed his face, General Ying Long, who once followed the general Ma Ma across the rivers and lakes, came to the end of his life under the watchful eyes of Liu Qi.

Until she could no longer feel a trace of life in the other party, Liu Qi slowly withdrew her gaze, and then gently tapped Shen Ying's protruding head with her left hand, making her retract behind him.

Just as Bai Ze carefully laid Ying Long's body flat, Liu Qi slowly looked sideways and looked at the direction of Shimen.

"They are almost here..." Liu Qi said softly. Then he turned his head and looked at Zhou Mi, looking at her fragile side face, and asked softly: "May I ask what your plans are next?"

"Let's go see Wei Yang first." Zhou Mi said while looking at Kui Niu and Bai Ze.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Mi's eyes slowly moved to Liu Qi. As her eyes flashed, she sighed softly: "If it weren't for... Wei Yang would have wanted to see you."

The general wants to see her?

When Liu Qi heard this, his eyes narrowed.

Although Liu Qi didn't hear the slightest malice in Zhou Mi's tone.

But Liu Qi still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart to be remembered by such a powerful person who was the only one in the world.

Kui Niu took the lead and jumped to the protruding platform on the stone wall with Yinglong's body in his arms.

The pale-faced Bai Ze walked slowly past Liu Qi, his eyes glanced over Liu Qi's body, and then he bowed and stood in front of the Queen Mother Zhou Mi.

Zhou Mi shook his head, looked at Liu Qi with bright eyes, and said softly: "You go up first, I will follow Liu Qi."

Bai Ze couldn't help but raise his head slightly after hearing the words. While glancing at Liu Qi from the corner of his eye, he stared at Zhou Mi. The serious look in his eyes seemed to ask Zhou Mi whether what he just said was true?

Zhou Mi nodded slightly, expressing his feelings.

Bai Ze immediately lowered his head and took two steps back, then raised his eyes to look at the platform on the stone wall, then looked back at Liu Qi, and said in a deep voice: "I will leave it to you."

Liu Qi naturally remained silent. After Bai Ze flew onto the platform, Liu Qi saw Zhou Mi opening his arms towards her with a slight smile in his eyes.

Liu Qi could only lead Shen Ying towards him, and without hesitation, he reached out and wrapped his arms around Zhou Mi Yingying's waist, and then saw the other person's two slender arms wrapped around her body unceremoniously.

A refreshing fragrance instantly poured into his nose. Liu Qi lowered his head and looked at Shen Ying on the other side. Under the signal from her eyes, Shen Ying quickly reached out and hugged Liu Qi's waist tightly.

Just like that, with two "koalas" one big and one small, Liu Qi flashed and appeared on the platform of the stone wall in the blink of an eye.

As soon as she landed, she saw a cave entrance behind Bai Ze that was only as high as a person.

"It seems that you have almost mastered Bai Ze's Qing Gong mentality." Zhou Mi praised after getting off Liu Qi, "It's just that the aura on his body is a bit too fierce and scary."

Liu Qi replied unceremoniously: "If you feel any discomfort, you can ask General Bai Ze to do it for you."

After using it all, and still being critical and giving negative reviews, Liu Qi is not an easy character to talk to.

After hearing Liu Qi's words, Bai Ze, who was standing next to Zhou Mi, suddenly changed his face. He immediately raised his head and looked at Liu Qi with frowning eyebrows. He was about to say something, but was stopped by Zhou Mi who was standing beside him. Stopped.

"Your temper..." Zhou Mi glanced at Liu Qi's face, then shook his head and sighed, "After entering the world, right and wrong are inevitable."

With Liu Qi's appearance, martial arts, and temperament.

Zhou Mi had already had a premonition in his heart that the Jianghu, which had been silent for a long time, was about to erupt into a bloody storm under Liu Qi's knife.

Liu Qi just replied calmly: "Let's talk about the future matters after tonight."

She had already felt from Zhou Mi that the situation tonight might not be that simple.

Because from the beginning to the end, Liu Qi never saw a hint of nervousness in Zhou Mi. Even after Ying Long died, there was no emotional fluctuation in this woman, and Liu Qi didn't even see it in her eyes. Showing sadness.

So, what else does Zhou Mi have to rely on?

A seriously injured general?

If he was okay, how could the current situation happen.

The Four Tianzun Generals?

Yinglong was dead, and as for Kui Niu... Liu Qi didn't see anything in him that could make Zhou Mi Jedi come back.

Now it is known that the emperor and Fu Qingshu have joined forces, and the general's serious injury was revealed to them by Liu Zongxun. The two have countless masters, and even top masters such as Jiang Jiyu are personally in charge.

No matter how you think about it, this is a dead end.

Liu Qi was even prepared for the next bloody battle!
She couldn't help but look at Shen Ying, who was clinging tightly to her side, with a fleeting look of deep meaning in her eyes.

If it really comes to that point, having her by his side would be the most dangerous thing.

Shen Ying hadn't noticed Liu Qi's gaze yet. Her eyes followed Zhou Mi's back closely. She wanted to open her mouth several times but endured it.

Naturally, Shen Ying's little moves did not escape Liu Qi's eyes.

Liu Qi roughly guessed the reason for this. It must be the words of Queen Mother Zhou Mi just now that aroused Shen Ying's longing for her parents.

The image of parents in Shen Ying's eyes comes entirely from Shen Zhuang's dictation.

In Shen Zhuang's words, her father was a handsome and extraordinary man with a graceful nature.

My mother is a chivalrous and upright woman.

Shen Ying had heard the stories about her parents from Shen Zhuang countless times, so much so that she herself doubted whether the stories about her parents were true.

Because except for her grandfather, she never heard anything about her parents from anyone else.

But Zhou Mi's appearance made Shen Ying's long-buried thoughts come alive again.

She was very eager to confirm from other people that what her grandfather said was true, so as to maintain the clear outline of her parents in her mind.
