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

Chapter 433 The target is you
Liu Qi dismounted and entered the camp in the earth building.

When the escorts who were cooking inside saw Liu Qi, they all stood up and bowed, "Miss Liu is back."

Liu Qi nodded slightly as a greeting.

He Wentian, who came with them, saw that the escorts who usually didn't know the rules were now so well-behaved. He felt a little emotional and couldn't help but glance sideways at Liu Qi who was walking beside him with a deep gaze.

The two of them came to a room in the earth building that was relatively well preserved.

There were two bodyguards packing up inside. When they saw Liu Qi and He Wentian coming in, they quickly put down their work and saluted to the two of them.

"Okay, pack up and get out now. If you keep dawdling, are you going to have dinner today?" He Wentian cursed as he kicked the two out of the room.

"Miss Liu, please take a seat." He Wentian raised his arm and invited her.

There was only a tattered old wooden table in the room. There were no chairs next to the table, so the only place to sit was near the bed.

Liu Qi didn't hesitate and sat down beside the bed.

He Wentian walked forward with a smile and took the initiative to hand over the kettle. He pointed at the mouth of the bottle and said, "Miss Liu, please rest assured that no one has used this kettle before."

"Thank you." Liu Qi took the kettle from He Wentian's hand expressionlessly, raised his head and took a big gulp.

Then she wiped the water stains from the corners of her mouth and said, "If you have anything to say, please speak up."

Liu Qi's words revealed his thoughts. He Wentian smiled and scratched the back of his head, then asked hesitantly, "A few days ago, I felt that the surrounding aura was inexplicably surging in one direction. What a coincidence, that direction turned out to be the direction of Kunlun Despair..."

Liu Qi stared at He Wentian's honest face, which looked like an old farmer, and immediately realized that the person in front of him was also a genuine top master.

Of course, don’t be fooled by He Wentian’s silly look.

He certainly wasn't telling the truth.

Because at that time, it was not only the surrounding heaven and earth Yuan Qi that was being siphoned in, but even the true Qi in his body should have been inexplicably pulled.

Liu Qi pondered for a moment and told him roughly what happened in Kunlun Desperate Situation.

After listening to what Liu Qi said, He Wentian's face gradually became solemn, and there was deep worry in his eyes.

He took a deep breath, then said with a sigh: "Is it finally going to come to this?"

Liu Qi looked at He Wentian carefully.

She was able to detect the faint fluctuations of true energy from He Wentian.

Although the revealed true energy was extremely pure, that was all.

An ordinary top master might be a rare existence in other eras.

But in today's world where the Yuan Qi of heaven and earth is extremely active, he is destined to become a stepping stone for others.

Because Liu Qi could be sure that there was no trace of state of mind on He Wentian.

The inability to grasp a state of mind means that when the purity of his true energy reaches the level of the origin of the primordial qi of heaven and earth, he will be unable to resist the assimilation of his own will by the way of heaven.

When the power of the Nine Cauldrons is activated and the road to heaven is opened, the primordial Qi between heaven and earth will be more active and abundant than ever before.

By that time, He Wentian’s cultivation level would probably not be enough.

He is not his opponent and will not appear in the final battle.

Liu Qi withdrew his gaze and made a final evaluation of He Wentian.

……

After resting in the camp for a night, Liu Qi set out for the Central Plains again with the Changfeng Escort Agency.

A few days later, they arrived safely at Yumen Pass.

The city gate was under martial law by soldiers in armor. Just when Liu Qi and his party arrived at the gate, countless bows and crossbows were instantly extended from behind the battlements of the closed city gate.

"But is it Chief He from the Changfeng Escort Agency?" A captain in heavy armor stepped forward and shouted loudly while staring at the escort flag fluttering in the wind.

He Wentian rode forward and said with a bow, "I am the chief escort of Changfeng Escort Agency, He Wentian."

The captain's eyes instantly fell on He Wentian. After taking a closer look, he clasped his fists and replied in a sonorous voice, "Captain He, I'm sorry. The new commander has issued a strict order that all merchants passing through the customs, no matter where they come from, must dismount and be inspected by us before they can enter."

He Wentian had already learned about the attack on Yumen Pass from Liu Qi. When he heard that he had to dismount for inspection, he did not get angry. Instead, he dismounted and said with a smile, "Since it is a military order, Captain, please do as you please. We at Changfeng Escort Agency are willing to cooperate."

After saying this, he waved his hand and the escorts behind him dismounted one after another.

The leading captain heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing this, and waved his hand to signal his men to go forward and check. Then he smiled and bowed again, saying, "Then I would like to thank Chief Escort He here."

"It's okay, it's okay." He Wentian shook his head and asked casually, "I wonder if the Black Sand Bandits who broke into Yumen Pass have been brought to justice?"

When the captain heard He Wentian mention the Black Sand Bandits, his face suddenly darkened: "It seems that Chief Escort He has also heard about it. These bastards from the Western Regions are simply not human. Of course, the former garrison commander Lin Xingguo is even less of a person. He actually fled with his own soldiers and let the bandits burn, kill and loot in the city!"

He Wentian's face also became serious, and he told the captain about what happened when they encountered Lin Xingguo's men in the desert.

"Fang Shoulai has already found out that Lin Xingguo has been secretly communicating with the Western Regions for many years. He has also been colluding with the evil cult in Mobei, secretly buying and selling people to provide living people as sacrifices for the cult members to practice evil skills."

Speaking of Lin Xingguo, the former commander of Yumen Pass, the lieutenant was indignant: "General Fang also speculated that Lin Xingguo might have fled to the Western Regions, but I don't know what ability he had to escape the pursuit of the Black Sand Bandits."

"stop!"

"Get off your horse and be inspected!"

Suddenly, a sound was heard in the crowd. He Wentian and the captain, who were chatting, couldn't help but look in the direction of the sound.

When He Wentian saw several figures sitting on horseback, his heart skipped a beat.

Finished!

I almost forgot that there was this evil star in their line of work.

Liu Qi was wrapped in a cloak, with only his eyes showing. He looked around at the officers and soldiers holding weapons against him, and then said calmly: "Do you want to die?"

"stop!"

The loud shout was like thunder out of nowhere, which instantly froze everyone in place.

He Wentian flew over and landed in front of Liu Qi's horse, then clasped his fists and said, "Miss Liu, don't be angry first. It's all because of my inappropriate handling of the situation."

After comforting Liu Qi, He Wentian turned around.

At this time, the captain with a gloomy face was walking over with big strides. He glanced at the tightly wrapped Liu Qi, then looked at He Wentian and asked, "Captain He, is this person also from your Changfeng Escort Agency?"

He Wentian was just afraid that Liu Qi would kill everyone, so he didn't have time to explain to the captain in a hurry. He lowered his voice and whispered, "Miss Liu Qi, I think it's unnecessary."

He also deliberately emphasized the word "Liu Qi".

At the same time, he prayed silently in his heart, hoping that the captain in front of him was not a fool who knew nothing.

"Liu Qi, Liu Qi..."

The captain murmured softly upon hearing this, feeling as if he had heard this name somewhere before.

"is her!"

He suddenly reacted, then raised his head and exclaimed: "Miss Liu!"

Seeing the other party's surprised look, Liu Qi couldn't help but ask curiously: "Do you know me?"

The captain nodded repeatedly, and then seemed to remember something, and quickly replied respectfully: "Miss Liu, you are forgetful. I used to serve under General Fang. Because I made contributions in the recovery of Li'an City, General Fang took a fancy to me and awarded me a minor official position."

General Fang... Liu Qi looked at the man's face, thought for a moment, and finally realized who the General Fang he mentioned was.

Fang Weixian.

It’s him again. It’s true that we meet everywhere in life!

The captain had been secretly observing Liu Qi's expression. Seeing that she seemed to have remembered something, he said with great joy, "Miss Liu, you may not know that our General Fang is also the commander of Yumen Pass and is in the city right now!"

"Oh." Liu Qi responded indifferently.

Seeing Liu Qi's expressionless face, the captain felt puzzled and anxious at the same time.

He wished he could send someone to tell the captain right away that the Miss Liu he had been thinking about day and night was right here.

But Liu Qi's calm attitude made him feel a little uneasy.

"Could it be true, as others say, that Miss Liu disdains our General Fang?"

It shouldn't be!

General Fang is in command of a large army at a young age, so his future is self-evident. He is also very handsome. As for his character... in the eyes of his personal soldiers, that is obvious to all!
If it were me, I would have thrown myself into his arms long ago!
The captain felt as uncomfortable as if he had been scratched by a cat.

After learning that it was Liu Qi, there was no need to search.

The captain immediately ordered his men to let Liu Qi pass. After seeing him enter the city, he immediately trotted onto his horse and galloped towards the city.

Although the city has been repaired, traces of burning can still be seen, and many places on the streets are still in ruins.

Fortunately, the inn where Liu Qi and her friends stayed last time was not burned down, and the door of the inn was open, with guests coming in and out from time to time. It seemed that normal business had resumed.

When Liu Qi entered the lobby of the inn, the old man who was counting the bills behind the counter seemed to sense something. He looked up suddenly, and his cloudy eyes instantly fell on Liu Qi.

"benefactor!"

The old man's eyes lit up and he hurried out to greet him.

When he came in front of Liu Qi, he bowed deeply, which attracted the attention of others.

"I didn't expect you were still alive." Liu Qi said calmly.

That night, the Black Sand Bandits attacked Yumen Pass. She took the old man out of the city with her, but they separated before entering the desert.

I thought the old man was in great danger, but unexpectedly, not only was he fine, he also returned to Yumen Pass and continued to run the inn.

When the old man learned that Liu Qi and his party were going back to the Central Plains, he immediately asked his men to prepare dry food and water for the journey. He also asked someone to prepare the best fodder for Liu Qi and his party's horses. After everything was arranged, the old man carefully suggested that Liu Qi stay here for one night to repay the man for saving his life.

Liu Qi nodded in agreement. There was nothing important to do right now anyway.

"Captain He, why don't we rest here for a night and set off tomorrow?" Liu Qi discussed with He Wentian who was standing beside him.

After thinking for a moment, He Wentian nodded in agreement. After all, they still had to carry out Liu Qi's escort.

After entering the room, Liu Nineteen complained: "Since we have already entered the customs, why don't we get rid of these escorts and go on our own!"

Liu Qi glanced at her coldly, then glanced at Zhou Mi and Tian Xiang who were eating snacks, and then said lightly: "Someone is serving you delicious food and drinks, what else can you be dissatisfied with."

"Besides, with Changfeng Escort Agency here, we can save a lot of unnecessary trouble along the way."

If Liu Qi was alone, she would of course be happy to be free and easy.

If Liu Shijiu is added, two people would not be enough, and it would be a good idea to have someone to order around along the way.

But Zhou Mi and Tian Xiang are one big and one small. The older one has always been the one who orders others around, while the younger one...

In short, Liu Qi doesn't want to be a nanny, and Liu Shijiu is not the type to be one.

In that case, why not follow Changfeng Escort Agency?

As for worrying that they might have ulterior motives?

What a joke!

Instead, the people from Changfeng Escort Agency should be worried about Liu Qi!

In fact, after they checked into the inn, an escort had secretly found He Wentian and suggested that they should just go back home and that Liu Qi should just cancel this escort mission.

Liu Qi had a fierce reputation and many top masters had been killed by her sword.

Although the escorts were usually respectful, they were still nervous in private.

He Wentian naturally would not agree. In his opinion, the most important thing in the world is reputation!
Since they have already accepted this escort mission and the other party does not voluntarily withdraw, they must carry out this escort mission to the end!
Besides, Qingjiang Prefecture is not too far away, and it should take about ten days to get there.

He Wentian tried to persuade his subordinates with good intentions, but he never imagined that this decision would actually save his life a few days later!
……

The next morning, Liu Qi was still meditating and taking a nap.

A group of officers and soldiers arrived outside the inn.

The leader was Fang Weixian, who was dressed in plain clothes.

As he dismounted from his horse, the soldiers behind him had already stepped forward and were guarding the door of the inn tightly.

Soon, the news that Fang Weixian came to ask for a meeting reached Liu Qi's ears.

She opened her eyes and wanted to say goodbye.

But after thinking for a moment, he got up and went downstairs.

Fang Weixian was sitting at a table, his eyes fixed on the direction of the stairs. When he saw Liu Qi coming down the stairs, he quickly stood up, bowed and said, "Miss Liu."

"What do you want from me?" Liu Qi asked briefly.

Looking at Liu Qi's cold face, Fang Weixian smiled bitterly in his heart, but still forced himself to remain calm and said in a deep voice: "Fairy Kongsang and...that person passed the test the day before yesterday."

It seems that Kongsang and Xiao Qingshan are ahead of them.

Liu Qi was not surprised. Both of them had extremely high cultivation bases. If they traveled at full speed, it would not take them long to cross the desert.

Fang Weixian continued, "It was Fairy Kongsang who asked me to tell Miss Liu something."

Liu Qi uttered a word coldly: "Speak."

Fang Weixian replied solemnly, "Fairy Kongsang said that Gu Liancheng's first target is you, Miss Liu, and asked you to be careful on your way back to Qingjiang Mansion!"

Liu Qi couldn't help but narrow his eyes when he heard this.

……

Qingjiang Prefecture, Xu Prefecture.

"Fang Fu, Fang Fu..." Someone called softly outside the door.

Inside the room, a graceful woman was facing the mirror, gently tying up her long black hair that fell on her shoulders.

Until the door creaked open, Tao stood at the door and smiled gently at the woman, "Fang Fu, the meal is ready."

The woman in front of the mirror turned her head and smiled at Tao, then replied softly: "Mom, I know."

Tao's eyes were obviously dazed for a moment, but the smile on her face remained unchanged. Then she caught a glimpse of the dull decoration on the woman's head and said, "After dinner, I will take you to the street to buy some jewelry."

"Okay." The woman blinked smartly, then turned her head to look at the mirror.

I saw Liu Qi's face vaguely in the mirror!
