Chapter 189 Kill and then rest
Liu Qi quickly forgot about his encounter with the Beggar Clan disciples on the road.

He was just a master who seemed to have some level of proficiency, but not enough for her to keep in mind.

Towards the evening, the originally clear sky suddenly became covered with dark clouds, and the wind suddenly became strong. As the sky gradually darkened, Liu Qi saw that a heavy rain was coming, so she hurried towards the next town.

Before the heavy rain fell, Liu Qi drove a carriage to the city gate. She raised her head and looked at the two big characters "Li'an" with flying phoenixes on the city gate, and knew that they had arrived at the capital of Li'an Mansion.

Rumbling--

Muffled thunder exploded in the distance, causing a commotion in the winding queue at the entrance of the city gate. Everyone crowded towards the city gate in unison, causing the officers and soldiers on duty behind the gate to raise their spears and prepare for the attack.

Zhou Mi opened a gap in the car door curtain and looked at the "long queue" at the city gate. He couldn't help but worry: "With such a long queue, can we still enter the city before it rains?"

Liu Qi shook his head and looked over the heads of everyone. He saw two huge city gates in a closed posture, leaving only a gap for one person to pass through. The officers and soldiers on duty at the city gate were carefully checking every pass. of pedestrians.

If they go on at this speed, let alone before it rains, it will be difficult for them to enter the city before dawn!

"Bah, a bunch of dog officials!" Someone seemed to be impatient with waiting, and the crowd yelled and cursed, "If we don't let you go now, are you really going to let us get soaked in the rain outside?"

Liu Qi listened to the constant yelling and cursing in her ears, and quietly pulled the reins, trying to leave the already agitated crowd.

Zhou Mi saw Liu Qi closing her eyes again, so she leaned into Shen Ying's ear and whispered: "Don't listen to her, she is a monster!"

As the sky becomes darker and darker, the pedestrians and merchants blocked from the city gate have become restless.

Seeing that Li'an City cannot be entered, while ordinary people are still greeting the families of officials in the city at the city gate, experienced merchants have begun to look for places to take shelter from the rain. After all, the goods they carry are almost equivalent to their lives!

To a certain extent, Zhou Mi was right. Regardless of his methods or behavior, in the eyes of most people in this world, he was indeed like a monster.

After leaving Beijing, apart from rushing to eat and drink, Zhou Mi had never seen Liu Qi doing anything other than practicing.

Including Shen Zhuang's friend, "Thousand Fantasy Craftsman" Lu Gong, also disappeared after entrusting Shen Ying to Liu Qi.

She could see clearly that the people just now had weapons hidden under their raincoats.

Before Liu Qi drove the carriage a few steps, she suddenly felt a few eyes falling on her. She immediately turned her head to follow the eyes and saw a few people in the crowd wearing raincoats looking at them with fiery eyes. Own.

The reason why Liu Qi has achieved what he has today is due to the right time, favorable location, and people!

Facing the gradually boiling crowd at the city gate, a thin official on the city wall wiped the sweat from his forehead, and then whispered a few words to the people around him.

……

Liu Qi slowly opened her eyes, glanced at Zhou Mi faintly, and then turned to look at Shen Ying: "Instead of focusing on these vain hopes, it is better to practice hard. If something happens again in the future, I won’t allow anyone to be exploited.”

Shen Ying nodded and said "hmm" slightly, then raised her eyes slightly and glanced at Liu Qi, who was taking a nap opposite, and her eyes gradually became firm.

……

Liu Qi withdrew his gaze with an indifferent expression, pulled the reins in his hand, and drove the carriage away from the crowded crowd.

Upon hearing this, Shen Ying's eyes instantly filled with a myriad of melancholy, and then she murmured, "I don't know if Grandpa is now..."

Many experienced merchants among the crowd, like Liu Qi, quietly left the crowd while everyone was excitedly greeting the city officials.

The hub in front of us, connecting the north and south waterways of Daqi, has become the last hope for everyone to escape the violent storm.

Of course, this does not mean that Liu Qi's efforts are useless. After all, Yue Ya's feedback can increase her cultivation, but it will not help her understand martial arts moves.

Being stared at by Liu Qi's indifferent eyes, Shen Ying felt panicked and quickly replied: "Ying'er knows."

In an instant, heavy rain poured down.

Zhou Mi comforted her softly: "Since your grandfather entrusted you to Liu Qi before disappearing, he must have already had a plan in mind. If nothing happens, you and your grandson can naturally reunite at the Shen family."

"Let us in!"

The two parties' eyes met, and Liu Qi saw obvious stunned expressions on the faces of several people. It seemed that Liu Qi did not expect that Liu Qi would notice their prying eyes.

Of course, what Zhou Mi didn't know was that Liu Qi also had the golden finger Yue Ya!

However, these people immediately came back to their senses, and a wild smile appeared on their faces. Their eyes rolled around, and they began to look at Liu Qi wantonly.

Wow…

Now that King Xiao Qifeng of the East China Sea has successfully ascended the throne, the chaos in Beijing has been resolved. Xiao Wenhuai and Fu Zhuolin, the masterminds behind the scenes, have been executed. However, the whereabouts of Shen Zhuang, who was captured by Xiao Wenhuai, are still unknown.

"It seems that something happened in Li'an City, otherwise the local officials would not have dared to stop so many people from the city gate." Zhou Mi broke the silence in the carriage.

Seeing this, Zhou Mi glanced slightly at the corner of his mouth, and immediately looked sideways at Shen Ying, who looked a little worried: "Xiao Ying'er, what are you thinking about with a sad face along the way?"

With such a distance, it was impossible for Zhou Mi's words to escape Liu Qi's ears.

But it's too late to turn back now. The nearest inn and town to Li'an City are at least ten or twenty miles away. Coupled with the weather, you don't have to think about it to know that it is already packed with people.

"What the hell happened? I've never been able to go in and out of the city like this before!"

After several days in a row, Zhou Mi had to sigh. No wonder Liu Qi had such astonishing cultivation at such a young age. In addition to her own astonishing talent, it was also inseparable from her almost ascetic-like cultivation method.

Soon the officers and soldiers on duty at the city gate seemed to have received the order to retreat. They retreated into the city gate one after another. Just as the surging crowd pressed forward, with a "squeak", two thick doors opened. The city gate closed at an extremely fast speed!
Everyone at the city gate was stunned at first when they saw this, and after a while, the crowd was completely excited.

"Stop talking, if my load gets wet..."

……

However, she did not react at all to this teasing.

"Let us in!"

Liu Qi, who was taking a nap with his eyes closed, was like an old monk in meditation, sitting cross-legged and motionless in the car.

But Liu Qi still insisted on his own ideas.

I would rather be a monster than a fish!
While Liu Qi was taking a nap with his eyes closed, the true energy in his body wrapped with condensed murderous intent continued to travel through the meridians. Only in this way could the backlash of the murderous intent on himself be eliminated to the greatest extent.

But sometimes the murderous intention will still break through the layers of true energy. Even if a trace leaks out, the pain caused by the erosion of one's own meridians is still unbearable for ordinary people.

Now Liu Qi has believed Zhou Weiyang's judgment before his death. If his cultivation level remains at the current level, the murderous intention will break through the limits of the true energy in less than three years and completely backfire on him.

Until then……

He will die first due to backlash.

Or should the murderous intention devour the consciousness first and turn it into a machine that only knows killing, and finally come to an end in endless killing?

No matter what the outcome was, Liu Qi was definitely not what Liu Qi wanted to see.

Rumble-thunder was rolling outside, making the earth tremble.

Liu Qi's eyes suddenly opened, and then she slowly turned her head, looking outside as if through the car door curtain.

Da da da……

There was a rush of footsteps on the muddy road. Just by the sound, Liu Qi concluded that there were at least twenty people, and all of them had martial arts skills.

She stretched out her hand to lift the car curtain, and just as the silver snake danced in the sky, and lightning flashed, black shadows passed by on the road not far away, and the weapon in her hand reflected a frightening cold light under the lightning.

These people were obviously not here for him and his party, and they quickly disappeared from sight.

Liu Qi lowered the car curtain and turned around to see Zhou Mi and Shen Ying looking at her longingly. Then she said softly: "You're not here for us, just rest in peace."

As soon as Liu Qi finished speaking, Shen Ying breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked Liu Qi a few questions about cultivation. After Liu Qi answered them one by one, Shen Ying closed her eyes tightly and began to practice.

Zhou Mi yawned out of boredom, then lay down and glanced at Shen Ying, who was sitting cross-legged just like Liu Qiru, and shook his head and sighed: "I have lost the joy of life at such a young age. It's really... It's a pity..."

Liu Qi replied calmly: "It's better than losing your life."

Zhou Mi stretched lazily and smiled charmingly at Liu Qi: "Speaking of which, Xiao Liu Qi, don't you have a family?"

Liu Qi replied bluntly: "No."

After saying that, she closed her eyes and started meditating.

Seeing Liu Qi ignoring him, Zhou Mi couldn't help but smile knowingly, then slowly closed her beautiful eyes and began to take a nap.

Da da da……

About half an hour later, there was another rush of footsteps outside the car. It was probably the same group of people just now, but Liu Qi counted the footsteps and it seemed that half of the people were missing.

"Brother, have you seen the carriage in the woods?"

Suddenly someone stopped not far away, and then Liu Qi heard a rough voice coming from the sound of rain.

"Is it the carriage of that little girl we bumped into at the city gate?" Someone seemed to have recognized Liu Qi's carriage.

"Damn, that little bitch is so irritating. When I close my eyes now, all I can think of is pictures of her!" Another loud voice followed closely.

"..."

"The matters assigned by the superiors are important. Don't cause trouble between the two of you." The tone of the speaker seemed very steady.

"Brother, we have captured him anyway. Lao Qiu and I will go over and tie up the little girl. It won't take much time." It was still the man with the rough voice who spoke at the beginning.

"That's right, we have lost more than half of our brothers on this trip, and the rest are injured and disabled, and they won't be able to enter the city for a while. Why not just capture that little girl, so as to calm the anger of the remaining brothers! "

……

After a moment of silence, the steady voice sounded again: "Keep your hands and feet clean. I'll wait for you at the ruined temple."

Obviously agreed!

Liu Qi opened her eyes in time, her eyes flashing with light.

If her prediction was correct, the person who had just spoken should be the few people wearing raincoats that she met at the city gate.

Whoosh!Whoosh!
Amid the sound of rain, two piercing sounds reached Liu Qi's ears, and he could clearly make out two people rushing toward the carriage, one behind the other.

"Boom!"

In the blink of an eye, Liu Qi heard someone stepping on the carriage. She immediately turned around and faced the carriage door curtain. When there were people moving outside, the carriage door curtain was suddenly opened.

Before the visitor could clearly see the situation inside the carriage, Liu Qiyi pointed on his shoulder. Then his pupils shrank suddenly, and he was shocked to realize that he could no longer move.

At this moment, a figure jumped up high and headed straight for the carriage.

Liu Qi's face was expressionless, and the hand he had just withdrawn suddenly raised again, and a burst of energy shot out from his fingers instantly.

puff!
The energy instantly penetrated the figure that had jumped into the air, and it landed on the muddy ground with a "snap". The bloody smell emanating from the body was quickly covered up by the rain.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them were sure to die, without even being able to use a single move.

Liu Qi's eyes slowly retracted and fell on the person in front of him. The other person still maintained his posture of reaching out to open the car door curtain, but the messy aura on his body betrayed the fear in his heart.

The reason why Liu Qi stayed and did not kill him was purely because he heard the conversation between them just now.

So Liu Qi opened and closed her lips slightly and asked softly: "Where is the ruined temple?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she tapped his neck with her fingers like a gust of wind, allowing the other party to regain his ability to speak.

"Cough cough cough..." He coughed lightly first, and then asked in a trembling voice, "You... you... who are you?"

Liu Qi listened to the sound of rain outside and replied calmly: "People who take shelter from the rain."

If she had known there was a ruined temple, why would she spend the night here!
The other party's tone was obviously stagnant, and it was obvious that he was not able to understand Liu Qi's words.

Liu Qi gradually lost patience, and then reached out and pinched his shoulder gently, only to hear a "click".

"Ah——" The other party's shrill screams drowned out the violent wind and rain outside, causing Zhou Mi and Shen Ying to wake up instantly.

Zhou Mi saw a person squatting at the door of the car and immediately asked: "Who is this person?"

Liu Qi calmly replied: "The person who is going to take us to the ruined temple to rest."

As he said that, Liu Qi slowly put his hand on the other person's shoulder, and then closed his fingers slightly...

"I said, I said..." the other party said hurriedly, "The ruined temple is just outside the city gate. It's only five miles east along the path."

"hiss--"

After finishing speaking in one breath, the severe pain in his shoulder made him gasp.

Liu Qi slowly retracted her hand and said softly: "Thank you."

Just when the other party was secretly breathing a sigh of relief, a cold wind suddenly hit in front of him, and then he felt a chill in his heart. He felt as if he was falling from the clouds, and then he completely lost consciousness.

"Snapped!"

Seeing the other party floating on the muddy ground, Liu Qifang retracted his palm, then turned to Zhou Mi and Shen Ying and said:
"We'll destroy the temple, kill people, and then... rest."
