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

Chapter 71 Avoiding Strangers
  Just as the master and servant arrived at the door of the other courtyard one after another, Liu Qi's eyes suddenly darkened, and he immediately stopped Cuixiang who was about to open the door.

"Cuixiang."

"Ah, what's the matter, Miss?" Cuixiang, who was holding a lantern and reaching the door of the courtyard, immediately turned around and asked with a puzzled look.

"It's nothing serious. It's just that there were too many outsiders at the banquet just now, so..." Liu Qi blinked at Cuixiang, and then said softly, "I'm a little hungry now."

"Oh!" Cuixiang suddenly had a look of realization on her face, then raised her head to look at the sky and said worriedly, "I wonder if the people in the kitchen have rested?"

"I'd better send you in first, and then go to the kitchen to have a look." After saying this, Cuixiang stretched out her hand to open the door.

Liu Qi naturally refused, and immediately stepped forward and stepped in front of Cuixiang, snatching the lantern from her hand, and then reminded: "You'd better go to the kitchen first to have a look, what if it's too late?" Don’t you want your lady to be hungry all night?”

"Hehe... Miss, what you said makes sense!" Cuixiang touched her head and said with a silly smile.

"It's dark, don't you want a lantern?" Liu Qi looked at Cuixiang running away in small steps, and immediately asked loudly while holding a lantern.

"No need, the slave girl in the kitchen can go there with her eyes closed!" Cuixiang's voice came from afar.

Watching Cuixiang's figure disappear completely into the night fog, Liu Qi's face gradually turned cold. Then the hand holding the lantern shook slightly, and with a "chi" sound, the fire went out.

"Squeak!"

Liu Qi pushed the door open and walked through the narrow courtyard to the door of the main house.

Without the slightest hesitation, Liu Qi slowly opened the door, and then her eyes instantly locked on the bed in the room. She saw a rickety figure sitting on the bed, and then Liu Qi smelled a faint smell. The smell of blood.

A bright light flashed in her eyes, and then she said coldly: "Lao Dao, are you injured?"

"Hehehe..." The figure on the bed slowly stood up with a hoarse chuckle, and then took two steps forward to the position directly opposite the window. Under the weak moonlight, the old man's face looked as dry as a walking corpse. The old face suddenly appeared in Liu Qi's sight.

"Your martial arts has improved a lot!" Ye Wu covered half of Shandao's face, unable to see the slightest change in expression, and his voice became hoarse, as if a handful of sand had been stuffed into his throat.

"You can actually find me outside the courtyard gate!"

Liu Qi pretended not to hear the old knife-sharpening old man's unclear compliments, turned his back to the door of the main house and slowly closed the door with his backhand.

She strolled up to the table and faced the old man sharpening the knife across the table. She glanced at the guqin placed in the old man's hand, and immediately the light in her eyes dimmed, and then she asked in a deep voice:

"I wonder if Mr. Dao is here late at night. What important orders do you have?"

"You did a good job this time." The old knife-sharpening old man was silent for a long time and suddenly broke the silence in the room. "Mrs. Mei's eyes are indeed vicious!"

"Brothers Sun are already approaching the boundaries of the capital. I hope you won't disappoint me then."

After hearing this, Liu Qi walked slowly to the counter where the guqin was placed, and then replied calmly: "When have I, Liu Qi, ever disappointed anyone in my work?"

"Hehehe..." The old knife-sharpening old man chuckled when he heard this, "Okay, you are worthy of being the Master of the Seven Kills of my Black Prison Sect!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the old knife-sharpening old man suddenly paused, then raised his palm and his five fingers slightly curved into claws to grab Liu Qi beside him.

whoosh-

A strong wind was approaching. Liu Qi's eyes dropped and she immediately turned around to meet it with one palm.

boom!
  The two palms connected, and the sound of bursting of zhenqi exploded out of thin air, as if it was about to tear the eardrums.

Liu Qi felt a huge force coming from his palms, pouring into his meridians. Everywhere he went was a mess. Faced with the pain of almost tearing his veins, Liu Qi's eyes remained piercing and unmoved. , and then stimulated the true energy to instantly calm down the violent true energy that invaded the body.

The old knife-sharpening old man who was facing Liu Qi was not much better. He only saw him take two steps back. As a muffled sound came from his chest, and then his body trembled slightly, Liu Qi heard a stirring in his throat. , seems to have swallowed something back into the stomach!

"Master Dao, I don't know what this means?" Liu Qi slowly closed her palm and asked coldly.

The old knife-sharpening old man remained motionless like a sculpture until another "Gulu" came from his throat, and then he spoke, his voice even hoarse than before. "Your murderous aura is too strong. At such a close distance, if I don't take action, the murderous aura in your body will definitely come back!"

After speaking, he was silent for a moment, and then the old knife-sharpening old man continued: "This time, just pretend that you are ignorant. In the future, remember not to show your murderous intent in front of others. Once you meet a master, you will never hold back!"

"I will follow Dao Lao's teachings!" Liu Qi leaned over and said in a faint tone.

"You... are very good!" The old man sharpening his knife in the night stared at Liu Qi with his dark eyes for a long time, and then said in a deep voice.

"There is something you need to do now!"

"Liu Sanhui will arrive in Beijing at nine o'clock. You go to Yizhuang outside Dongcheng to pick him up."

"Remember the secret code of the connection, evil people go on the road, and strangers avoid it!"

……

"Miss, the people in the kitchen have rested. This servant can only serve you a bowl of noodles. You have to make do with one bite first." Cuixiang placed a bowl of steaming noodles in front of Liu Qi, with a few words on it. There are a few green onions floating in the air.

"You have been busy all day, go and have a rest early." Liu Qi took the chopsticks handed over by Cuixiang and said to him.

"I'm not tired, I'm waiting for you, Miss. It won't be too late for you to rest." Cuixiang blinked and looked at Liu Qi and then at the bowl of noodle soup.

Liu Qi had no choice but to finish the bowl of noodle soup under Cuixiang's gaze.

……

At the beginning of Yinshi, Liu Qi got up from the bed, took out a close-fitting black shirt from the bottom of the box and put it on. Then he took out a mask from the hidden compartment of the box and put it on his face.

After getting dressed, Liu Qi walked to the counter where the guqin was placed. She tapped the guqin lightly and heard a crisp sound. In an instant, she had a sword in her hand.

As usual, he came to Cuixiang's room before leaving. Listening to Cuixiang's even breathing, Liu Qi's fingers tapped her body a few times like a gust of wind.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Liu Qi seemed to have thought of something, and then returned to Cuixiang's bedside. Then she stretched out her palm and pressed it on Cuixiang's lower abdomen, channeling a trace of true energy.

"Have a sweet dream."

……

Liu Qi walked through the streets and alleys of the capital, avoiding every group of patrolling officers and soldiers very familiarly.

"Now at least one thing can be confirmed, that is, my internal strength level is at the same level as the old man who sharpened the knife, and even a little better than him!" Although he was performing Qinggong at his feet, Liu Qi still recalled and sharpened his skills in his mind. The fight between the old man and the old man with swords.

Just now, she deliberately exuded murderous aura around the old man sharpening the knife, just to force the old old man sharpening the knife to take action.

For an accomplished warrior, a person releasing murderous intent at such a close distance is like hearing the "buzzing" sound of a mosquito clearly in the ear of an ordinary person.

In particular, the old man who sharpened the knife was still practicing the murderous mad knife. If he could hold back and not take action, he would be counterattacked by the boiling murderous intent as he said.

Finally, the old sharpener took action, and Liu Qi responded with a palm.

Liu Qi, who was on his way, couldn't help but glance at his right arm, which was still numb.

Although the powerful infuriating energy of the sharpening old man penetrated Liu Qi's body along with the force of his palm and caused some damage to his arm, it was quickly calmed down by Liu Qi's own pure infuriating energy.

And the old man sharpening the knife...

Liu Qi recalled the trembling body of the old man who sharpened the knife and swallowed twice, and couldn't help but feel a hint of pleasure in his eyes.
