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

Chapter 322 It’s her!

Gongsun Yan?
Liu Qi's eyes moved slightly, and he looked carefully at the woman on the opposite boat. Both her face and figure were exactly the same as Gongsun Yan.

But Gongsun Yan's martial arts had clearly been destroyed by him, but there were obvious traces of true energy lingering on his body.

And the temperament has changed too.

This aloof and cool attitude is indeed exactly the same as Gongsun You.

But Liu Qi saw Gongsun You breathe his last with his own eyes.

She was confident that no one could deceive her by pretending to be dead.

So the question is, is the person in front of us Gongsun Yan, or Gongsun You who has returned to life from behind?

Thinking of this, Liu Qi narrowed her eyes slightly. The river breeze blew past, and a strand of black hair at her temples fluttered to her face, just blocking the brilliance that flashed across her eyes.

The woman who called herself Gongsun You had also retracted her arms at this time. She stood up straight and said to Liu Qi solemnly, "I heard that Miss Liu has a Kongsang Immortal Order in her hand. Is it true?"

Liu Qi replied calmly, "So what if it is, and what if it isn't?"

Gongsun You frowned when he heard Liu Qi's answer, and then said in a deep voice: "If Miss Liu really has the Kongsang Immortal Order, please take the order and go to Yingyue Island in the East China Sea on the 15th of next month. The Immortal Boat will be open to you then."

Gongsun You saw that Liu Qi had a blank expression on her face and seemed to be uninterested in what she said, so after a brief pause, he continued, "The fairy has also heard that a young sword master has recently emerged in the Central Plains martial arts world, so she specifically asked me to bring Miss Liu to the fairy boat for a chat."

Liu Qi turned sideways, looking at the hazy river fog in the distance, with his hands behind his back, and asked in a slow and soft voice: "Are Sang Manman and Chu Xiaopang in the fairy boat?"

When Gongsun You heard Liu Qi mention Sang Manman and Chu Xiaopang, he frowned immediately, then nodded: "Chu Xingbai's father was a criminal slave who escaped from the Fairy Boat. The rules of the Fairy Boat are that all criminal slaves and their descendants are not allowed to leave the Fairy Boat for life!"

"What if... I want to take them and their son away?"

Liu Qi turned his head slightly and looked at Gongsun You. Seeing that his face was getting darker, he said calmly, "This is not an inquiry, but a notice. No one can stop me from doing what I, Liu Qi, am going to do, unless... you kill me!"

Gongsun You's eyebrows were almost wrinkled into a shape of a "川" character. She looked back at Liu Qi's cold eyes with a gloomy face. After a long time, she slowly nodded: "The fairy and Miss Liu have been friends for a long time. I think the fairy will be willing to consider your request."

Liu Qi shook his head: "It's not a consideration, it's a must. If you can't do it, the fifteenth of next month... is indeed a good day."

Liu Qi retracted his gaze, raised his head slightly and looked at the sky where the night fog was gradually rising, and then said softly: "I will go to Yingyue Island myself. If I don't see Sang Manman and her son, don't blame me for being ruthless."

"I have killed the owner of Feiyu Villa, Jiang." Liu Qi said calmly, "I wonder how many blows this sneaky broken boat can withstand from me."

Gongsun You opened his eyes slightly, the anger in his eyes disappeared in an instant, then he bowed slightly and said solemnly: "In this case, on the fifteenth of next month, Gongsun You will personally wait for Miss Liu to come to Yingyue Island!"

"You didn't come here just for me today, did you?" Liu Qi asked in a deep voice as Gongsun You just finished speaking.

Gongsun You did not hesitate, and nodded directly: "The person I am looking for..."

She looked past Liu Qi's side and towards the surging river surface, then said slowly, "He died at the hands of Miss Liu."

It turned out that Jinshan Yinhai Manor and Kongsang Xianfang had already colluded with each other and got mixed up with each other.

Liu Qi was not surprised by this. The two of them came from the Central Plains. Although they went far overseas, they always maintained a close but distant relationship with the Central Plains. It was impossible to say that the two sides had no intersection in these two hundred years.

The appearance of Money Envoy today confirmed Liu Qi's guess, that is, behind Sun Jiyun stands Jinshan Yinhai Manor.

Zhou Mi once said that Jinshan Yinhai Manor would only appear in the Central Plains when the world was in chaos. They would look for the true emperor who could end the chaos and provide him with strong financial support until they helped him unify the world and end the disputes. Then Jinshan Yinhai Manor would disappear overseas.

The reason why Xiao Lang was able to pacify the world back then was inseparable from the help of Jinshan Yinhai Manor.

In times of chaos, choose a good leader; in times of peace, flee far away overseas.

This approach seems to be correct, but it is not reasonable.

Since Jinshan Yinhai Manor possesses the power to decide who will rule the world, don't they have the idea of ​​ruling the world?
Liu Qi doesn't believe that the people in Jinshan Yinhai Manor are all perfect people who are strong-willed and can't be taken away from their will!

Moreover, although there are undercurrents in Da Qi after the death of the great general, it is still quite peaceful overall. Even if someone has ill intentions, the one sitting on the dragon throne is Xiao Qifeng!
No matter how you look at it, the current Da Qi has not reached the level of a chaotic world.

Even though Sun Jiyun has now completely taken control of the military and political power in Jiangnan, he is still a subject of Da Qi to the outside world and has not openly raised the banner of rebellion!

Therefore, Jinshan Yinhai Manor did not appear to end the chaos!

What's that for?
Liu Qi thought for a moment, then his eyes moved and his gaze fell on Gongsun You.

Gongsun You's body trembled, and then she felt that everything around her seemed to solidify. She subconsciously wanted to activate her true energy, but found that her dantian seemed to be pressed by a huge rock. No matter how she circulated her mental skills, her true energy was trapped in her dantian and could not move!

Liu Qi's eyes were filled with a deep and unfathomable light. She looked at Gongsun You, whose face was gradually turning pale, and then said slowly, "I am a road blind. In order to ensure that I can arrive at the Fairy Boat on time on the 15th of next month, I think it would be wrong for Miss Gongsun to stay with me for a few days!"

Gongsun You's pupils bulged and rolled around. The only part of her body that could move was her eyes!

So, does she have the room to refuse?
Liu Qi's eyes slowly dropped and swept across Gongsun You's lower abdomen.

Although this woman called herself Gongsun You from beginning to end, Liu Qi was very sure that she was Gongsun Yan, the Gongsun Yan whose martial arts had been destroyed by him.

Liu Qi also wanted to know how she recovered her martial arts. Could it be that Kongsang Fairy Boat also had a method similar to the enlightenment?
Even if there was, the enlightenment was only about martial arts training. The "Gongsun You" in front of him obviously couldn't remember anything about Gongsun Yan. Could it be that even his brain was enlightened?

Liu Qi originally wanted to use the same method to destroy her martial arts again, but after thinking it over carefully, he decided not to.

She still had many things she wanted to ask the other party. If the other party was determined to die after his martial arts were destroyed, it would be difficult to let him speak.

The most important thing during the interrogation process is to keep the other party holding out a glimmer of hope.

……

Liu Qi returned home carrying "Gongsun You" and then went straight to the yard where Zhou Mi lived.

When she brought "Gongsun You" into the room, Zhou Mi and Liu Nineteen stood up at the same time.

"Gongsun Yan!" The two men looked at "Gongsun You" who was motionless like a sculpture and said in unison, "Why are you back?" "Gongsun You"'s eyes rolled around, and then a look of doubt appeared in his eyes.

Obviously, she did not recognize Zhou Mi and Liu Shijiu.

After Gongsun Yan's martial arts were abolished, he stayed by Zhou Mi's side to serve him, so Zhou Mi and Liu Jiujiu were the ones who saw Gongsun Yan the most often.

Especially Zhou Mi, this old woman is quite good at manipulating young girls who are inexperienced in the world. Like Gongsun Yan and Liu Jiujiu, they were completely subdued by Zhou Mi in just two days. They usually follow Zhou Mi around like a little follower, calling her "Sister Zhou".

Liu Qi tapped "Gongsun You" a few times with his backhand.

"Gongsun You" swayed a few times, then took two steps back, looking at the three people outside the house with a vigilant look.

Liu Qi just said, "If you walk out of this door, your life will be in danger," and then he came to the table in front of Zhou Mi and Liu Jiujiu and sat down.

At this time, Zhou Mi also discovered that Gongsun Yan in front of him seemed a little strange, so after asking Liu Qi, he found out the whole story.

inside the room.

Gongsun Yan sat alone on a chair near the door, holding a sword in her arms. She sometimes looked at the three people at the table with vigilance, and sometimes looked outside the door with hope.

Gongsun Yan's actions were all seen by Liu Qi and the other two.

After Zhou Mi withdrew his gaze from her, he whispered, "Although her temperament is indeed a little different, but from the silly look on her face when she looked at the door just now, I'm sure she must be Gongsun Yan!"

Liu Qi held the teacup and glanced at Zhou Mi.

“Could it be that the Kongsang Fairy Boat really has a magic that can bring back the dead?” Liu Nineteen lowered his voice and said, “Gongsun You’s soul was transferred to Gongsun Yan’s body.”

"I think you've read too many novels and picture books." Liu Qi put down his teacup and said slowly, "If there really are ghosts in this world, I'm afraid some of us won't be able to sleep."

Liu Nineteen frowned. She knew who Liu Qi was talking about. Then she curled her lips and snorted coldly, "I can kill you even if you're alive. Even if you become a ghost, you'll be a useless ghost!"

That’s it!
If becoming a ghost really makes you invincible, then people don't have to fear death so much.

"So you captured her to find out what happened to her?" Zhou Mi's eyes moved slightly, and then he leaned close to Liu Qi's ear and asked in a low voice.

The two were so close that Liu Qi lowered her eyes and saw Zhou Mi's slender, white neck like a swan's neck, and the boundless spring scenery under her collar. Waves of fragrance kept flowing into her nose. Liu Qi slightly tilted his head to distance himself from Zhou Mi, and then said softly: "I think the purpose of Jinshan Yinhai Manor is not pure, so I want to find someone to ask."

Then Liu Qi glanced at Gongsun Yan who was sitting on a chair not far behind him, then retracted his gaze and said to Zhou Mi and Liu Shijiu in a deep voice: "You don't have to lower your voice. Her current cultivation is even better than that of Gongsun You. Even if you speak softly, she can hear you clearly."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Mi and Liu Nineteen looked at Gongsun Yan at the same time.

As soon as Liu Qi opened her mouth, Gongsun Yan had already lowered her head, with a flickering light in her eyes, and no one knew what she was thinking about.

Early the next morning.

Xu Yongyuan came hurriedly and pushed open the gate of Liu Qi's yard. He saw his niece in a light green fir skirt standing at the door, as if waiting for his arrival.

Xu Yongyuan was slightly stunned, then quickly said: "Fang Fu, Sun Jiyun sent someone to deliver a name card, saying that he will visit you today!"

Liu Qi didn't seem surprised to hear the news. She nodded slightly to indicate that she had heard it.

At the same time, I thought to myself, it's finally here.

Around noon, a group of people stopped at the entrance of Changle Street.

Sun Jiyun, dressed in casual clothes, got off the carriage. At the same time, two tall horses came out from the side of the carriage. A man and a woman were riding on the horses, both wearing Taoist robes.

The two men dismounted one after the other. The leading female Taoist walked up to Sun Jiyun, nodded slightly and bowed, then turned her gaze to the quiet Changle Street.

“Who would have thought that the cautious eldest daughter of the Liu family back then has now become the tyrant Liu Qi that everyone in the world fears.” Le Qingyao slowly shook her head and sighed softly.

Sun Jiyun smiled slightly: "Now this Miss Liu's reputation is unparalleled in the martial arts world. Many people have regarded her as an existence above seven stars, saying that her martial arts skills are comparable to those of the two best, and she just makes up for the vacancy of the general!"

Yue Qingyao's eyes narrowed slightly when she heard this, and then she said calmly, "Does Governor Sun regret it?"

The smile on Sun Jiyun's face froze.

Yue Qingyao stared straight ahead and continued softly, "The Black Prison Sect has a close relationship with Futian. Governor Sun's cooperation with them is tantamount to courting disaster. Be careful not to get burned."

"Hehehe..." Suddenly a burst of laughter rang out.

Then another person got off the carriage that had just stopped. He was dressed in gorgeous clothes and walked towards me with a happy face.

After coming close to Sun Jiyun, the man first bowed to Sun Jiyun, then restrained the smile on his face and bowed to the dejected man in Taoist robes behind Le Qingyao.

Finally, he stood up straight, and as he looked towards Yue Qingyao, he showed a half-smile on his face: "Lady Le, cooperating with the Black Prison Sect is like courting death, cooperating with the Gold Mountain and Silver Sea Manor is like inviting a wolf into the house, so what about cooperating with your Taiyi Sect?"

Seeing that Yue Qingyao ignored him, Lu Jiuzhang chuckled and continued, "Governor Sun is a loyal minister who eats the emperor's salary. His every move is for the country of Da Qi."

"But if Xiao Qifeng hadn't been in charge back then, your Taiyi Sect would have been wiped out by Zhou Weiyang's cavalry..."

"Brother Lu!" Sun Jiyun saw that Lu Jiuzhang was going too far, so his face darkened and he said to stop him, "I came here today for Liu Qi, please don't start another dispute."

Upon hearing this, Lu Jiuzhang snorted disdainfully, then turned his head to the side.

Seeing that the two were no longer arguing, Sun Jiyun's expression eased a little, then he looked around and frowned, "Where is the money envoy? I didn't see him yesterday."

Lu Jiuzhang held his arm and said unhappily, "I wonder if he bumped into Liu Qi's blade and got chopped by him."

(The money that had sunk to the bottom of the river gave a thumbs up to Chao Jiuzhang. You guessed it right!)
