A businesswoman with a sharp edge, a genius cultivator

Chapter 243 Promise to Save People
"This, this, this..." Lan Si pointed at Hei Jiu with a look of horror and disbelief, his whole body was trembling, and it took him a while to shout, "What is this!"

Zixi turned her head and glanced casually, and explained, "This is my spirit beast Hei Jiu, which is very powerful."

When Hei Jiu heard Zixi introduce it, he shook his body quite proudly, Lan Si let out a long breath, and stared at Zixi full of surprise.

What happened to Zixi in the past year, not to mention his own strength suddenly becoming so powerful, but also possessing such a powerful spirit beast?
"Okay, those people have already arrived, don't be in a daze." Zixi reminded in a deep voice, and Lan Si finally realized it, and looked at hundreds of black shadows passing by with serious eyes.

At present, the stronger Zixi's strength is, the better it is for them. The most important thing to pay attention to is the killers with more than a hundred numbers. They are not just ordinary characters, but they are better than many people.

In just a few blinks of an eye, the two of Zixi had been surrounded in place, surrounded by black-clothed killers, and the cool wind passed by, bringing a trace of coldness.

"Kill!" I don't know who shouted coldly, those killers moved together and attacked Zixi and the other two!
Zixi, the two of them, and the beast didn't hesitate anymore, and rushed towards the crowd with weapons in hand. When the weapons were handed over, the sound of "cracking" resounded in the air.

Hei Jiu counts one as ten. He is powerful but is temporarily restrained by so many people. Zixi's figure is astonishing, and he is quite comfortable among many people. The worst is Lan Si, who is the weakest among them. Yes, it quickly showed its flaws under the hands of those people.

"Hmm." After being stabbed in the hand, Lan Si took two steps back with a muffled grunt, and the long knife rushed over from the side. Fortunately, Zixi was not far away from him, and the long sword in his hand had already blocked the long knife one step ahead.

"I'm sorry, Zixi, I..." Lan Si was very embarrassed. He didn't expect that one day, Zixi would be put in front of him to protect him. It was really embarrassing.

"We are all friends, no need to thank you." Zixi said coldly, thinking about the way out.

This suburb of Beijing is still some distance away from the imperial capital. It is obviously impossible to safely escape back to the imperial capital under the pursuit of these killers. The only way is to hide.

"Let's go to the mountain." Zi Xi turned to Lan Si and said, the two nodded to each other, and slowly moved towards the mountain.

A quiet flute sound floated over, which seemed to be a signal. When the men in black heard the signal, they attacked faster and faster, and Zixi and the others could not move further into the mountain.

If this continues, the situation will be very bad.

"Master, let's help too!" A clear and clear child's voice rang in his mind, it was Xiao Lin.

"Yes, yes, we can help!" Jin Cang also called out, but was interrupted by Zixi, "No, the reason why I wear a mask is because I don't want to reveal my identity, otherwise I'm afraid I won't have a good life in the future. "

"In that case, shall I come?" Another familiar voice sounded, and Zixi's eyes widened, "Xiao Yi?"

"Hmm... I'm awake." Xiaoyi said.

"Remember to come out with a mask on." Zixi reminded, and casually pulled out a face scarf from the Wanmi flower for him.

Xiaoyi nodded, following Zixi's call, she came out from among the Wanmi flowers and stood behind Zixi.

Not only is its face covered, but its clothes have also been changed. Now at first glance, Zixi can't even recognize it.

Nodding at him, the two rejoined the fight.

Xiaoyi's sleep practice during this period has improved his cultivation a lot. He is still that suave young man, but his skills are comparable to Zixi's, and he soon made a bloody road with Zixi.

Zixi no longer hesitated, and ran into the forest with Lan Si,

"Fire barrier!" Xiaoyi snorted coldly and shouted.

Lan Si looked up, and behind him, in front of those men in black, a 20-meter-high flame barrier appeared out of thin air, burning raging fire, blocking those people behind.

Zixi saw the opportunity, and quickly fled into the forest with Lansi, Xiaoyi and Heijiu hurried to catch up.

"Zixi, where did this hero come from? Can he control the flame?" Lan Si turned to look at Xiaoyi, shocked!
People who can control flames in this world, unless there is a powerful flame beast that shares the flames with its master, how can there be humans who can control flames?

"He...is my friend. He came over to help just now. He came too fast and you didn't see clearly." Zixi did not blush when she lied, and calmly made up an identity for Xiaoyi, "His name is Xiaoyi."

"Oh!" Lan Si nodded, with a look of sudden realization. It is normal for a powerful person like Zixi to have a few powerful friends.

"I know there is a very hidden cave in this mountain, do you want to go and hide?" Hei Jiu saw that he had run far into the forest and asked.

"Okay." Zi Xi nodded, followed Hei Jiu for two quarters of an hour, and a huge waterfall appeared in front of him, and the waterfall fell from above, making a loud "rumbling" sound.

Zixi turned her head to look at Hei Jiu, "Where's the cave you're talking about?" Apart from the waterfall, there are only jagged and strange rocks on both sides of this place. How does it look like a cave?

"Follow me!" Hei Jiu raised his eyebrows and flew up suddenly, and rushed towards the waterfall, splashing water on the waterfall, but disappeared into the waterfall in just an instant.

This is... Water Curtain Cave?

Zixi opened her eyes, "Go!" As soon as the voice fell, she arranged a barrier around her body to protect herself, and rushed towards the place where Hei Jiu had passed.

"Wow!" After rushing through the water, the eyes went dark, and then a flame appeared on Zixi's hand, illuminating the surrounding scene.

This is a naturally formed cave, surrounded by damp black walls, and occasionally small purple flowers bloom on it. The cave is so deep that it is impossible to see the bottom from the outside. Hei Jiu has already walked inside to observe the surroundings.

Then Lan Si and Xiao Yi also came in.

"Who would have thought that there is such a natural cave behind this big waterfall?" Lan Si asked in surprise.

"Indeed, it seems that the killers outside can't find this place." Zixi smiled slightly, but in order to avoid any accidents, Zixi reached out and placed a restraint at the entrance of the cave in front. If someone broke in, they would be able to Know.

"Lan Si, do you know who sent those killers?" After packing up and sitting down, Zixi turned to look at Lan Si and asked.

"It should be sent by my second brother." Knowing that Zixi already knew his identity, Lan Si no longer concealed it, and his voice was flat, as if he was talking about other people, "Father was seriously injured by the assassination, and elder brother was accused of being the mastermind of the assassination." Im locked up in prison, I have always been my father's favorite son, if he doesn't get rid of me, it will be difficult to sit in that position."

"Your second brother is named Lan Lian, isn't he?" Zixi said with a sigh.

Lan Si turned his head and glanced at Zixi strangely, "Yes." The names of their princes should be well known, right?

"So that's the case." Zixi breathed out lightly, no wonder Lan Lian was in a hurry to recruit people, she was already ready to force the palace.

Picking up a pile of wet firewood, Xiaoyi first used flames to dry the wet firewood around, and then built a fire.

"The matter of the royal family is really troublesome. What are you going to do?" Zixi turned her head and continued to ask.

Lan Si raised his head and sighed slightly, "Second brother has been so fascinated by that position, all this can only be saved by going to the palace to see the father and explaining it clearly to him."

"But father is still in a coma." Speaking of this, Lan Si sighed long.

"Coma? What happened when he was assassinated? What's the problem?" Zixi raised his eyebrows.

"Poisoning, a very rare poison, even the imperial doctor doesn't know what it is." Lan Si sighed, "Father has a lot of red pimples on his body, his skin is flushed, he was conscious at first, and then passed out , did not wake up again."

"Red pox? Flushed skin?" Zixi raised her eyebrows and asked abruptly, "Is it because your hands and feet are cold, your body is hot, and even your eyes are bloodshot?"

"Yeah, how do you know?" Lan Si stared in surprise.

"This is ice worm water poison, and it's not difficult to detoxify." Zixi curled his lips slightly. There are many detoxification and antidote in Wanmihua, and many life skills. Zixi has almost memorized them all. Few people know about these poisons. It seems that this time Lan Lian spent a lot of money to get the ice worm poison.

"You can detoxify?" Lan Si jumped up in surprise, the imperial doctor couldn't do anything, Zixi actually said she could?
"That's right." Zixi nodded, "I can detoxify."

"Zixi, can you please go and see my father, if you can really detoxify, it would be great!" Lan Si's heart was filled with hope. He searched for famous doctors in the past two days, but there was no way. Found, and now there is hope again.

"Yes." Zixi nodded, "However, I hope you keep this matter a secret, I don't want to get involved in the royal war."

"Okay! I'll keep it secret!" Lan Si nodded quickly, looking at Zixi expectantly.

"Okay." Zixi nodded and agreed.

After staying in the cave for a night, there were also footsteps of immortal cultivators coming over, but they didn't find the cave hidden in the waterfall, so there was no danger.

Also, if they all jumped to check the waterfalls in the mountains, how long would it take?
When Zixi and the others came out, there were no killers outside.

Hei Jiu returned to Zixi's spirit beast space, Xiaoyi also found a chance to say goodbye to Lan Si, Zixi quietly took him into Wanmihua, and then, Zixi and Lan Si took the time to go to the imperial capital up.

Two black cloaks crossed the street. Although there were some strange ones, it was not uncommon to see such a person, and not many people cared. Zixi kept an eye on her back and turned into the alley to make sure there was no one else. Then she changed into her own clothes. I made an appointment with Lan Si to meet tonight, and quietly returned to Mipu.

"Miss, you are back." Lian Yu saw Zixi coming to greet her, and reported, "The rice in the field has been planted."

"It's so fast, not bad. In this way, the goods in the imperial capital will be supplied."
