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

Chapter 239 Diamond Gate

The house owned by Xu Yongding and his wife is not too small, and it also has a spacious back garden.

It is said that Xu Yongding took a fancy to this back garden and insisted on buying it, so that Mr. Tao, who was addicted to the pain of losing his daughter, could have a place to relax.

However, this house is not expensive, because the previous owner was one of the richest men in Baishui County, and was wiped out by gangsters who coveted his family assets. Therefore, he did not dare to buy this house for decades, until he met Xu Yongding was born in a martial arts family.

Jianghu people often talk about karma and retribution, but in reality they are the least likely to believe in ghosts and gods.

While Liu Qi and Xu Yongding were chatting with each other, Tao quickly prepared food and placed the dining place in the yard where Liu Qi now lives.

After the dazzling array of dishes were served, Liu Shijiu and Zhou Mi came hand in hand under the leadership of the maid.

Xu Yongding and Tao were quite polite to the two girls who came to Baishui County with Liu Qi.

Zhou Mi was worthy of being a strong man who came out of the deep palace. After sitting down, he made Tao smile with a few words.

While Liu Qi was concentrating on the dishes on the table, Tao was already telling Zhou Mi about Xu Fangfei's "great achievements" when she was young.

Liu Qi naturally felt Xu Yongding's gaze and heard the conversation between him and Zhou Mi clearly.

Suddenly, only Liu Qi, Zhou Mi and Liu Shijiu were left in the room.

After raising his eyes and seeing Mrs. Tao's gentle eyes, Liu Shijiu's expression became even more awkward. In the end, he could only imitate Liu Qi and bury his head in eating to cover up the confusion in his heart.

How could she not hear the temptation in Xu Yongding's words?

And compared to Zhou Mi, the girl Liu Shijiu, who had the same name as her daughter, seemed to be filled with an unpleasant smell of blood.

Zhou Mi smiled and said nothing when he heard this, but took a deep look at Liu Qi who was immersed in cooking again.

However, as the time mentioned by Tao came closer and closer to the time when Xu Fangfu was abducted, the smile on her face visibly faded, and distress and guilt gradually appeared in her eyes when she looked at Liu Qi.

As the spicy and mellow wine rolled into her stomach, Liu Qi leaned back slightly with satisfaction, and then her eyes caught the astonished gazes of the maids and servants around her.

Just leave this matter alone!
Xu Yongding's face changed slightly, but looking at the face of his daughter Gujing Wubo, he suddenly felt bitter in his heart, and then he forced a smile and nodded: "They are all Fangfu's friends, it doesn't matter how long we stay at home."

Zhou Mi smiled when he heard this, but did not answer immediately. Instead, he picked up the tea at hand and took a sip.

After Xu Yongding agreed with a smile, he left with the Yamen servants.

Mrs. Tao was focused on her daughter at this time and didn't feel anything was wrong with Zhou Mi and Liu Shijiu.

Seeing Mrs. Tao's mood gradually sinking, Xu Yongding, the head of the family, quickly changed the topic: "I heard that Miss Zhou is from the capital. Xu has a niece married in Beijing. I wonder if I know Miss Zhou?"

As for Liu Shijiu, who was not involved in the whole process, she had a cold expression on her face from the moment she entered the room and sat down, and at the same time she was absentmindedly picking up vegetables with chopsticks here and there.

only……

Having said this, Liu Qi's meaning was already clear.

Seeing that Zhou Mi directly revealed Xu Fangfei's identity, but also claimed to be Shengdou Xiaomin, Xu Yongding's doubts deepened, and he glanced at Liu Qi beside him.

As the county lieutenant of the county, Xu Yongding shoulders the important task of hunting down murderers and thieves and maintaining the stability of the area, but in terms of responsibilities, he is even busier than the county magistrate.

However, Xu Yongding didn't have any other ideas. He just felt that his daughter, who finally returned with great difficulty, was accompanied by two women of unknown origins, which made him feel a little uneasy.

Therefore, Mrs. Tao was already used to being asked to leave in the middle of the meal. She also thoughtfully asked Xu Yongding to remember to go to the snack shop to buy some snacks when he came back in the evening, and repeatedly emphasized that they should be freshly baked.

Liu Qi felt that if she said she was not full, the eyes of the maids and women in the house would probably pop out, so she nodded slightly and said she was full.

Until Mr. Tao took the initiative to add a chopstick dish to him, Liu Shijiu was stunned as he held the bowl, and then said "Thank you" somewhat obscurely.

So all the dishes on such a large table went into Liu Qi's belly.

Even the wine prepared for Xu Yongding could not escape the disaster.

Xu Yongding looked at Liu Qi beside him with a deep look.

Thinking of this, the uneasiness in Xu Yongding's heart instantly dissipated, and then a deep look of love filled his eyes.

While Tao was talking, his eyes were fixed on Liu Qi, who was immersed in eating. Seeing that the food in Liu Qi's bowl was bottoming out, he even added a chopstick by the way.

Halfway through lunch, people from the Yamen came in a hurry and called Xu Yongding away.

The maids and ladies cleared the table, and Mrs. Tao quickly urged her men to prepare fresh fruits and tea.

Although he had planned to secretly investigate the origins of the two, he gave up the idea after seeing that his daughter Fang Fu had an unusual relationship with them.

On the table of delicious food, Tao just took a few bites, Zhou Mi always had a small appetite, and Liu Shijiu was full of thoughts and had a poor appetite.

From when Xu Fangfu was born, to calling someone for the first time, to being able to walk and run on her own... Tao recounted everything in detail, as if it all happened yesterday.

Our new lady's appetite...seems to be a bit surprising!
Mrs. Tao, on the other hand, didn't think there was any problem at all. The more she looked at Liu Qi, the more pleased she felt. Seeing Liu Qi put down the bowl and chopsticks, she quickly asked if she was full.

"Fangfu was like a monkey when she was little. She was even more noisy than Qinghuai. Even her aunt, who always likes children, often suffered from headaches."

And even if it is... the two of them deserve this calamity, and Quan should be repaying the debt they have owed for more than ten years.

After all, she is her daughter, and she will not harm herself and her wife.

Hearing that Mrs. Tao's footsteps had faded away, Liu Shijiu, who had endured it for a long time, couldn't wait to speak, with a slightly gloomy tone: "Do you plan to stay here forever and be your Xu Fangfu?"

But Xu Yongding was different. After all, he was the head of the family, and he had served as county captain for more than ten years. How could he not see the mystery shrouding Zhou Mi and Liu Shijiu?

So after she swallowed the delicacies in her mouth, she looked up into Xu Yongding's eyes and said in a deep voice, "I made an agreement with her relatives, so I keep her with me all the time."

Zhou Mi slowly put down the tea cup, and then whispered: "How could Mrs. Anlehou Shizi be recognized by us, the common people like Sheng Dou?"

However, the Xu Mansion was short of manpower, and there were only two maids and two women serving in the backyard. At this time, the pots and pans had to be cleaned up, so Mrs. Tao had no choice but to go to the kitchen to prepare.

Liu Qi leaned back on the chair comfortably and replied casually without squinting: "Otherwise, is it possible that you want me to give up this life of living with my hands and mouth, and continue to go to the rivers and lakes with you to eat and sleep in the open air?"

Liu Shijiu stood up suddenly, his eyes widened and glared at Liu Qi: "You!"

Liu Qi glanced sideways at her indifferently, and her tone instantly turned cold: "How did you go about explaining your matter?"

When Liu Qi's eyes came into contact, Liu Nineteen instinctively felt a chill on his back. Then he saw Liu Qi's usual expression and chilling tone. Not only did he not feel any discomfort in his heart, but he felt a hint of joy.

This is the Liu Qi she knows!

So Liu Shijiu's expression suddenly calmed down, and he said in a deep voice: "We have already contacted the people in the capital, but... are they really trustworthy?"

"You won't know until you try whether it is trustworthy or not. Is it possible that we have to keep wandering in the world with a blind eye like this?" Liu Qi replied, with an indifferent attitude in his tone.

Liu Shijiu's eyes moved slightly, and then he lowered his voice: "Before the promulgation of the Powu Order, there were three Jianghu forces that Qingjiang Mansion could handle. Among them, Hidden Dragon Valley was wiped out by the government, and the remaining Jingang Sect and Xuanzhu Sect were Disband in place.”

Liu Qi's eyes moved slightly when he heard this, and then he murmured: "Vajra Gate..."

Liu Shijiu nodded and continued: "Among the three sects, the only one with the Zhiyang Cultivation Technique is the Vajra Sect. After the destruction of the Buddhist giant Vajra Temple hundreds of years ago, some of the escaped monks established the Vajra Sect. According to legend, The treasure of the gate is the supreme magical power of the Vajra Temple, the indestructible magical power of the Vajra Temple."

"Oh."

Looking at Liu Qi who was sitting up straight, the corner of Liu Shijiu's mouth twitched slightly, and then he added helplessly: "It's just rumored that since the last abbot of the Vajra Temple died at the hands of the Seventh Heavenly Lord at that time, the Vajra Indestructible Magic Power has It has been completely lost. Shaolin has always claimed that there is a secret book of magical skills in the Sutra Pavilion, but no Shaolin monk has ever practiced it. "

Nothing in this world comes out of nowhere.

What if this Vajra Gate really has the inheritance of this supreme magical skill?

Liu Qisui then said: "After the Diamond Sect is disbanded, where will the disciples go?"

Liu Shijiu: "Some disciples directly returned to secular life and became ordinary people. As for the core disciples, most of them followed an elder in the sect and joined the Shangyang Escort Bureau." "As for the leader of the Vajra Sect..." Liu Shijiu said a little. He hesitated for a moment, and then continued, "When he returned to secular life, he went to Beijing to pass the high school entrance examination. Now... he has become the prefect of Qingjiang Prefecture."

In ancient times, there were generals and ministers, but I didn’t expect that there are still monks and officials now.

Daqi is really full of talents!
Liu Qi asked: "What is the name of this parent official of Qingjiang Mansion?"

Liu Jiujiu responded: "His name is Feng Qun now, and he used to be in the Dharma Hall of the Diamond Temple, Cheng Guan."

Liu Qi heard this and said, "Do you think he can master the magical power of indestructibility?"

These words seemed to be asking Liu Shijiu, but also seemed to be talking to himself.

Liu Shijiu frowned, but Zhou Mi, who was sitting next to him, suddenly said, "Why bother guessing here? You can go straight to the door and ask if you want to know."

Liu Qi's eyes suddenly lit up, Zhou Mi's words were exactly what she wanted.

Anyway, they won't be able to stay in Baishui County for long, and Xu Yongding and his wife have already started making preparations to return to Qingjiang Mansion.

Thinking of this, Liu Qi couldn't help but look sideways at Zhou Mi and asked softly: "Jingang Temple, how much do you know?"

Unexpectedly, Zhou Mi, who had always known everything, smiled and shook his head this time: "What I know is similar to what Xiaojiu said, but when the Vajra Temple was in its heyday, the Seventh Heaven came to visit for no reason. Come, and after the destruction of the Vajra Temple, its gate-holding magical power appeared in the Sutra Pavilion of the Shaolin Temple..."

Before Zhou Mi finished speaking, he covered his mouth and chuckled a few times.

At first glance, there must be a lot of twists and turns in this. Does Buddhism, which has always claimed to be the pure land of the world, also have many such twists and turns?

Liu Qi suddenly remembered that the general once broke through the Shaolin Temple alone, so he asked in a deep voice: "Back then, Shaolin dismissed the monks and returned the temple grounds. I'm afraid the process was not as simple as it seemed."

Zhou Mi nodded like a garlic, then stretched out his hand to support his chin on the table, and said lazily: "Of course it's not that simple, but these great monks have always been good at judging the situation, and their majesty defeated the Vajra formed by the seven heads of them. After defeating the demon formation, the next thing will be a matter of course. "

"But..." Zhou Mi pursed his lips slightly, as if he had thought of something, and his eyes gradually revealed a look of reminiscence, "What Wei Yang faced was not the complete Vajra Demon Subduing Formation. This Buddhist sect has been The existing formation has never regained its power since the split of Buddhism."

Liu Qi raised her eyebrows: "Why?"

Zhou Mi Yingying smiled: "Probably because the person who acted as the formation was too weak. The formation that Weiyang faced at that time was guarded by the leader of Luohan Hall himself."

"Although his Arhat's golden body has been trained to the point where it is invulnerable to all evil, it is still slightly inferior to the mighty sword."

"If the Weiyang back then were replaced by Xiao Qifeng now, I'm afraid not only the leader of the Arhat Hall would have passed away on the spot."

Liu Qi's eyes flashed slightly when she heard this.

Listening to what Zhou Mi said, when Zhou Weiyang went to Shaolin, it was not only as ordinary as recorded in the history books, but also caused death.

That is the head of the Luohan Hall. The being who is known as the head of the Shaolin monks, even if he cannot succeed as the abbot later, he is definitely one person below ten thousand people in the Shaolin Temple!
Zhou Mi looked at Liu Qi's twinkling eyes and then said with a smile: "The current Shaolin Abbot Jingchen has been sitting at the head of Luohan Hall for nearly twenty years before taking over as the abbot two years ago. , Now that Wei Yang is gone, it won’t be long before Shaolin disciples appear again in the world.”

Also, without these bald donkeys in the arena, it does seem a bit monotonous.

Liu Qi silently lowered his eyes and looked at his white hands, wondering what level of martial arts cultivation this bald donkey who was already ranked among the "Seven Stars" had reached.

Can my own sword be like Zhou Weiyang's and chop his Arhat's golden body into pieces with one strike?

Suddenly, Liu Qi raised her eyes and looked outside the room.

And Liu Shijiu, who was standing next to him, seemed to have noticed something, and turned back to look outside the house with a solemn expression.

An extremely arrogant voice came from outside at the right moment.

"Xu Yongding, the county lieutenant of Baishui County, neglected his duties and acted cowardly in the face of battle, causing heavy losses to the whole county. He has been captured by Capt. Wei on the spot. Are you trying to go against the imperial court by standing in front of Capt. Wei?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Qi stepped out and looked up to see a man in a headhunter's uniform, accompanied by more than a dozen government officials, looking arrogantly at the intruders coming into the yard.

"What's going on...who are you?"

Outside the courtyard gate, Mr. Tao came with a carefully prepared fruit plate in his hand, but he bumped into this group of people at the courtyard gate. Seeing that the leader of the arrests looked unfamiliar, he couldn't help but his face darkened and he immediately asked.

Unexpectedly, when the catcher heard this, he saw Mr. Tao, his eyes widened, and at the same time, there was a lustful look in his eyes.

"It's Mrs. Xu..."

I have long heard from Capt. Wei that the wife of the third eldest son of the Xu family is so pretty that I felt pity for her. When I saw her today, she certainly lived up to her reputation!
The leading catcher looked Tao up and down with a pair of triangular eyes, and then raised his head with a smile and said: "I'm Jiang Hao, I'm here to collect evidence on the order of the arrester Wei!"

"Evidence, what evidence!" Mrs. Tao's face turned cold when she saw the man's unkind eyes. He handed the fruit plate in his hand to the maid who hurried over, and then asked in a cold voice:

"Where's Xu Yongding? Didn't he go to the county government?"

Jiang Hao showed disdain and grinned: "You said that Xu County Lieutenant who was timid in the face of battle was naturally captured by our Capt. Wei!"

"Mrs. Xu, this is all an arrangement from above. I hope you won't embarrass me." Jiang Hao looked at Tao's cold face and suddenly felt an unknown fire rising in his lower abdomen, and his eyes became more unscrupulous.

"Wei Captou..." At this moment, Mrs. Tao seemed to have thought of something. She whispered the three words "Wei Captou" in her mouth, and finally realized it!
"Wei Xin!"

She immediately flicked her long sleeves and glared at Jiang Hao angrily: "Ask Wei Xin to come see me. I want to ask him personally if the Wei family is going to fight the Xu family to the death!"

Jiang Hao felt a little uneasy when he saw Mrs. Tao calling Wei Captou by his name so unceremoniously, and his arrogant aura suddenly weakened.

But soon he remembered the "teachings" given by Capt. Wei before, and Jiang Hao immediately gritted his teeth and paid attention.

Of course, neither the Xu family nor the Wei family can afford to offend anyone, but now that the matter has come to this, I can only follow the Wei family's path until the end!

"You dare to hinder the arrest of this policeman from handling the case. I will take down everyone who comes!"

"Let's see who dares!" Tao shouted sternly.

The Yamen servants who were already ready to make a move froze on the spot after hearing this. They were a little at a loss when they looked at Tao who was full of aura.

When Jiang Hao saw this, a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly stepped forward and reached out to grab Tao.

Mrs. Tao didn't seem to expect that Jiang Hao would be bold enough to take action directly. Although she had practiced martial arts since she was a child, she had become sick with worry over the years and had lost most of her martial arts skills. Therefore, facing Jiang Hao who was rushing towards him at this time, He seemed a little flustered.

"Haha..." Jiang Hao, who was already close at hand, couldn't help but lick his lips as he saw Tao's beauty fade.

Swah——

Huh?
what sound?
Jiang Hao's ears caught this extremely subtle sound, but he quickly glanced to both sides with his peripheral vision and found nothing.

Let’s take down Tao first!

Jiang Hao calmed down for a moment, but looking at Tao who was already close at hand, he suddenly noticed something was wrong.

wrong!

Why can't I move!

Jiang Hao finally realized something. His eyes gradually widened, and his crazily rotating pupils were already looking at his raised arm.

"That Mr. Wei you mentioned is in the Yamen now?" A cold and sweet voice came from one side.

Jiang Hao's eyes suddenly turned around, but he could only vaguely see a stunning silhouette.

He nodded wildly, but found that only his eyes could move.

Liu Qi caught a glimpse of this man's eyes that were trembling downwards, then nodded and said softly: "I understand, you can go."

Liu Qi's words seemed to have some magic power. Jiang Hao's eyes, which were still bright just now, froze for an instant, and then the light in his eyes quickly faded.

boom!
A body fell to the ground on its back, and the sound it made was like a giant hammer hitting the heart, making everyone present tremble!
