Chapter 63 This is Another Price

Liu Qi had forgotten that there was such a thing.

Liu Qi knew a thing or two about this old case of the Shen family.

As the previous head of the Shen family, Shen Zhuang has two sons, Shen Congxiao, the current head of the Shen family, and Shen Liang, the youngest son who died unexpectedly twelve years ago.

The girl Ying'er that Shen Zhuang had been carrying before was Shen Liang's posthumous son.

Liu Qi recalled Ying'er's thin appearance in Shen Zhuang's arms. It was hard to imagine that this was a twelve-year-old girl.

Although Shen Liang was from the Shen family, he had no interest in medical skills and alchemy. Instead, he became a disciple of Qingcheng Sect, another famous sect in the world, and became the disciple of Jiang Xuanyun, the current head of Qingcheng.

Jiang Xuanyun, the "Sword Emerging from Xiling", is one of the "one master, two masters" that is widely rumored in the world.

But Shen Liang, who had become a disciple of the head of Qingcheng twelve years ago, and his wife were attacked on the way to celebrate Shen Zhuang's birthday. When the Qingcheng faction and the Shen family arrived after hearing the news, they only found Shen Liang's body. , and Mrs. Shen Liang who was dying in a hidden cave.

At that time, Mrs. Shen Liang was also a disciple of the Qingcheng Sect. She was nine months pregnant. Although she was seriously injured, she still held on for breath until she saw the Shen family and the Qingcheng Sect's people closing their eyes and passing away. In the end, Shen Zhuang endured his grief and passed away from Shen Liangfu. A dying baby was ripped out of a person's belly.

After that, Shen Zhuang spared no effort to save the baby. In the end, he even fell out with the eldest son who had inherited the Shen family. At the age of seventy, he embraced an orphan girl and entered the world alone, just to leave a trace of blood for his younger son!
  ……

"Although there are different opinions on the reason why Shen Zhuang and Shen Congxiao fell out, Cao speculated that it must be related to the elixir channels controlled by the Shen family!" Cao Cheng speculated confidently.

Cao Cheng's speculation is not unreasonable. The elixir is the foundation of the Shen family. Otherwise, why would Shen Congxiao risk the disapproval of the world to fall out with his biological father and expel his biological father from the Shen family.

But Liu Qi was very curious, who killed Shen Liang and his wife?
  Of course Liu Qi would not express his doubts to Cao Chengming, but asked calmly: "Then what does Chief Cao want to do?"

Now that it’s all said and done, what are you going to do?
  "The most important thing first is to transfer this little girl Fang Qingluan away from Shen Zhuang!" Cao Cheng had already made a plan in his mind, "Fang Qingluan is a disciple of Feiyu Villa. This time he is paying and If you work hard, it’s not just Shen Zhuang’s alchemy ability that you want to gain!”

"Mr. Cao, don't blame me for not reminding you." Liu Qi said in a faint tone, "Fang Nuxia is not comparable to Lu Yishan and others."

Fang Qingluan, the direct disciple of Feiyu Villa and the direct descendant of Jiang Jiyu, the top master in the martial arts world, "Crane Jiuxiao", one of the famous "Four Little Feihe" in the martial arts world, and a first-class master in his own right.

There is no doubt that if Cao Cheng dared to ask her to kill Fang Qingluan, Liu Qi would not hesitate to pull out the sword and slap him in the face.

Facts have proved that Cao Cheng is not a lunatic, and Liu Qi is not a busy man.

The chief helmsman, who has been in charge of the Cao Gang for many years, lowered his head and thought for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "I don't need you to worry about these things, girl. However, if Cao encounters any difficulties in the future, I hope that the girl can take action with justice!"

"That's easy to say!" Liu Qi raised her head and agreed, so fast that Cao Cheng couldn't help but look stunned.

Liu Qi had already made up her mind. She said in a calm tone: "Lu Yishan has paid off the debt. If Chief Cao wants the little girl to take action again, he will have to spend more money!"

Liu Qi's meaning is very clear. It's okay to help, but this is another price!

……

With an approachable smile, Cao Cheng watched Liu Qi go down the stairs. Then the smile in his eyes instantly disappeared, and then he changed into a cold expression.

Back in the room, Cao Cheng swept away the empty plates on the table and suddenly felt a little hungry.

"Come in!" Following Cao Cheng's words, two people walked in from outside the door.

Cao Cheng sat down, then pointed at one of them and said, "Go and tell the cook to prepare another meal."

"Yes!"

Seeing his companion follow the order and exit the room, another person bowed to Cao Cheng and asked: "President, I have sent brothers to follow secretly, but..."

Recalling that I had sent people to follow me secretly several times before, but without exception, I lost track of them.

Cao Cheng seemed to have expected this. He sighed softly, then stroked his forehead and said: "I can't even see through this girl's martial arts. How can you possibly keep up with the trash under you?"

Cao Cheng then asked: "How is the question from the six gates?"

The subordinate immediately replied after hearing this: "There is no news, but it seems that a mysterious master has appeared in Beijing recently. It is said that the old black snake had an illegitimate son and was killed!"

"Mysterious master?" Cao Cheng slowly raised his head after hearing this, then frowned and asked, "What's the clue?"

"I don't know the specific situation. I just heard from people at Six Doors that the illegitimate son of Old Black Snake secretly took a deal and took people to assassinate him outside the city, but he was taken over by someone in one fell swoop."

"Hmph!" Cao Cheng heard that Black Snake's illegitimate son was being dealt with, and immediately sneered: "Is this little bastard planning to assassinate?"

"She is the daughter of Liu Zongxun, a member of the Ministry of Industry. It is said that she was raised in the countryside since she was a child. She doesn't even have a proper name." "But before Lu Yishan's accident, he checked Liu Qiniang and found nothing wrong."

……

……

Liu Qi walked on the deserted streets. Every time she passed an intersection, she would stop and look around for a moment before moving on.

Not far behind Liu Qi, two black figures in the shadows whispered:
  "Strange, why is this bitch walking so slowly today?"

"Yeah, and the direction doesn't seem right?"

"Why does the surrounding area look familiar?"

"Hurry up and follow us. If we don't get lost this time, the chief helmsman may decide how to reward us!"

"Hush, didn't the chief helmsman say many times that he should be called the president outside?"

……

Liu Qi stopped in front of a towering building, then looked up at the sky and saw a bright moon slowly hiding in the clouds.

The street suddenly became dark and dull.

Liu Qi turned around slowly, and then said quietly: "Since you two friends have already arrived home, why don't you show up yet?"

As soon as the voice fell, the street returned to silence, and you could hear a needle drop.

Alas, what a hassle.

A hint of coldness flashed in Liu Qi's eyes, and then she lightly stamped her foot. There was a "bang" sound, and a stone the size of a fingernail suddenly rose up in the air and landed in front of Liu Qi.

Whoosh!
  Liu Qi turned over and kicked the stone, and then with a sharp sound breaking through the air, the stone turned into a stream of light and struck under the dim eaves.

"careful!"

Following a commotion, two figures fled from the eaves in embarrassment. One of them was half a step behind, and then a "chi" sound was heard, and the stream of light passed through his calf.

"what--"

The shrill screams tore apart the night mist.

The person who escaped first had not yet stood still, and when he raised his head, an afterimage flashed before his eyes.

boom!
  The body hit the ground heavily.

"This is..." Before his eyes were completely distracted, the dark and majestic building in front of him always felt familiar, until the last ray of sight crossed the door plaque.

The moonlight passed through the clouds and fell on the plaque, making the four characters "Caobang Chamber of Commerce" shine brightly!
  ……

The next day, Cao Cheng heard his subordinates hurriedly reporting.

"All dead?" Cao Cheng asked with a stern face, "Still dead at the gate of the Chamber of Commerce?"

"Yes!" The subordinate was half-kneeling on the ground and did not dare to raise his head, so he could only reply with a stern tone.

The air in the room froze for a moment.

After a long silence, Cao Cheng sighed slightly, and then said in a deep voice: "Let's deal with it according to the usual practice."

"Yes!"

Just when his subordinates were about to exit, Cao Cheng's voice came from behind again.

"Go and notify Hall Master Yang and we can evacuate everyone."

"Yes!"
