A Clash of Gods - Chapter 1159

[Chapter 1149 Secretly Entering the Mountain]

Heiyan Cave elected Eve as the new cave owner, which surprised Qi Ning.

There are six villages in Heiyan Cave, and there are thousands of men, women and children combined. In Qi Ning’s view, as the owner of a cave, it is natural to undertake the mission of the rise and fall of a cave. A new cave owner is of course an imperative, but of course the selection of the cave owner must be carefully considered.

Eve is still young, and although she is quite popular among the clan, there seems to be a gap between the qualifications and prestige required by the cave owner.

Qi Ning never thought that Eve would become the new cave owner, but he was stunned, but soon realized what was wrong.

For Heiyan Cave, under the current situation, the conditions for selecting the cave owner may not necessarily depend on qualifications and prestige, otherwise the other village owners are above Eve in terms of qualifications and prestige, and in any case, it will be impossible to rely on them. Fu Lai succeeded the cave owner.

But there is one thing that Eve is far better than everyone, and that is the relationship with the Jinyi Qi family.

Everyone is not blind, of course, you can see the intimacy between Eve and Qi Ning. Even if you don’t know that the two have a private lifelong relationship, the intimacy between the two is obvious to all.

Among the seventy-two caves of the Miao family, Heiyan Cave belongs to a special force. At that time, because he had helped the old marquis in Jinyi to pacify Xichuan, he had disobeyed the orders of King Miao. The family regards it as the eagle dog of the court.

In this situation, Heiyan Cave can only rely on Jinyi Qijia.

Maintaining the relationship with the imperial court is of course an extremely important thing for Heiyan Cave. Eve has a close relationship with Jinyi Hou Ye. If Eve inherits the position of Heiyan Cave’s cave master, it will naturally make Heiyan Cave close to Jinyi’s family. connected together.

“Since it is their common meaning, it naturally makes sense.” Qi Ning said softly: “It’s just that you succeeded as the cave master. After this, there will be a lot more things, and it will be a lot more tiring.”

Eve said: “I know why they chose this way, but…!” After hesitating for a while, she said, “It’s just because they know that I am very close to you, and they know that Heiyan Cave depends on Jinyi Qiqiang. Home, so…” With a wry smile, he said, “I was originally not suitable for this position, but if I refuse, they will feel uneasy in their hearts, I thought about it, the most important thing now is to let everyone If you can calm down, I will be the cave owner for the time being, and let them choose someone else when it’s almost time.”

Qi Ning hummed, stared at Eve, and said softly, “No matter what difficulties you have, you must tell me. ”

I… understand.” Eve nodded slightly, then worried: “You are going to Cangxi tomorrow, but… there is still a lot of things here, I was going to follow You went together, but you succeeded as the cave master, but you couldn’t walk away for a while.”

Qi Ning smiled, “You don’t have to worry too much, you also know that the current Da Miao Wang Dan Du Gu and I have a pretty good relationship, and this Xing is going with Uncle Xiang, Uncle Xiang is very good at martial arts, even if we really want to use our hands, it is not difficult for us to retreat.”

Eve frowned: “I’m just worried, if the Miao family witch is really The one is Ksitigarbha, then…will the court punish her?”

“There is a state law.” Qi Ning said sternly: “According to the clues we have now, Ksitigarbha is involved in many incidents that harmed Chu. If she is really a Ksitigarbha, she will naturally have to give the court an explanation.”

Eve sighed, “The Great Witch has a lofty position in the seventy-two caves of the Miao family. Even if it is Ksitigarbha, it will not be easy for the court to punish her. The family will not watch the big witch of the Miao family be punished, anyone in the seventy-two caves of the Miao family can be punished if they violate the laws of the country, but the big witch, the Miao family will not let her accept any punishment from the court.”

Qi Ning looked solemn, Thoughtful.

“I’m worried that once there is a deadlock, it is very likely that there will be a conflict between the Miao Family Seventy-two Caves and the imperial court.

Eve said softly, “Little brother, when you arrive in Cangxi, you must think twice before doing anything, and don’t be impulsive in everything.”

The Miao family is not belligerent, but if they really want to be aggressive, they are not afraid of anything.

After looking around, he lowered his voice and said, “The Li family has been a powerful force in Xichuan for many years. They have abused the Miao family. Many of the Miao family are dissatisfied with the Han family because of this. Even today, there are many people.” Thinking of getting rid of the control of the imperial court, but most of the Miao family are willing to live peacefully under the control of the imperial court, but once they find an opportunity, there will definitely be people with ulterior motives who will take the opportunity.

”

Qining nodded and said: “I understand what you mean, there will always be black sheep, but don’t worry, I will be careful in everything, and I will never let anyone provoke a conflict between the Miao family’s seventy-two holes and the imperial court.”

Of

course, Qi Ning knew the huge consequences that would result if there was a turmoil in Xichuan. The

imperial court had already prepared everything, and only had to send troops to the north. Under such circumstances, any turmoil in the country would affect the northward movement of the empire. The

seventy-two holes of the Miao family were An extremely important force in Xichuan, the actions of this force can completely affect the entire Xichuan. If the turmoil in the seventy-two caves is caused by the Ksitigarbha, the plan of the court to go north can only be interrupted immediately, and only attention can be paid. Going to Xichuan side.

In this way, Chu State will miss a golden opportunity, not only will there be no possibility of attacking Dongqi, but also the plan to take advantage of the opportunity to attack the Northwest will be in vain.

Therefore, Qi Ning knows that his responsibility is heavy, It is necessary to find out Ksitigarbha, but it cannot cause turmoil in Xichuan because of this.

Because of this, Qi Ning did not insist on negotiating with the great witch of the Miao family, but instead Xiang Baiying went up the mountain.

Although it was a long time away Reunion, but this night Qi Ning was a regular and did not make out with Eve. After all, Heiyan Cave suffered a catastrophe, and he had just sacrificed to the people who died. In this case, even if he couldn’t bear it, he had to persevere. The

next morning , Eve personally escorted Qi Ning down the mountain.

In addition to Xiang Baiying and Qi Ning, Qi Feng also brought four bodyguards with him, while Duan Canghai led his black-scaled cavalry and stationed at the foot of the mountain. It is also to beware of Jibao boy running to the black cave again to do something wrong.

Cangxi was in the southeast of Heiyanling. Qi Ning had his own surprise, and he chose a fast horse from the team as Xiang Baiying’s mount. The group of seven went straight to Cangxi Miao Village.

There was more than one day on the way, and this day I had already seen Xishan in the distance.

Cangxi Shangshui Cave is also divided into six villages, and five villages surround the stockade of the King of Miao. Qi Ning knows that the stockade is in the Xishan mansion. It is late autumn. Quite imposing.

A layer of misty clouds shrouded the sky over the entire stream and mountain, and he could vaguely see a peak towering toward the sky in the mountain. Among the mountains, Qi Ning knew that it was Sun Moon Peak.

Riyue Peak is the highest mountain in the entire Xishan Mountain, and it is also where the Miao family is located. In the misty mist, the outline can be vaguely seen. Qi Ning knows that it is not easy to get close to Riyue Peak. After passing through layers of mountains and through many Miao villages, you can reach the foot of Riyue Peak.

The Miao family witch is a god-like existence in the minds of the Miao family, and the Riyue Peak is only more than ten miles away from the stockade where the King of Miao is located. , If the Miao family finds that someone is approaching Riyue Peak privately, the consequences are naturally unimaginable.

There are only a handful of people in the world who can see the great witch of the Miao family. Even the Miao family, if they want to see the great witch of the Miao family, they must get permission from the king of the Miao family. You can meet the Miao family witch.

It’s just that this time Qi Ning and others wanted to see the Miao family witch, but they couldn’t let too many people know.

He had already negotiated with Xiang Baiying on the way, entered the territory of Cangxi, and sneaked into Xishan quietly at night. After all, he knew where Riyue Peak was, determined the direction, and avoided the eyes and eyes and approached Qi Ning and others. By the way, it’s not too difficult.

After entering Cangxi, several people had already changed into Miao’s clothes, and the horses were stored early.

The Cangxi area is the sphere of influence of the Miao family. It is rare to see the Han family here. Even if you do, most of them are businessmen who do business here. The Miao family is not good at doing business. It is self-sufficient, but the goods brought by the Han merchants are abundant, and many Miao people are also willing to do business with these merchants. For the Miao people, no matter what business they do, integrity is the first, so they can survive here. Merchants, but they can be considered to be honest, because the business has been in business for a long time, the Miao family has a strong recognition of these merchants, if there are strangers in this area, UU reading www.sonicmtl.com It is easy to cause Attention of the Miao family.

Qi Ning knew that in the vicinity of Cangxi, the Miao family had many eyes and ears. After all, it was the location of the Da Miao king and the Miao family witch. The guard was naturally much stricter than other Miao villages, so a few people did not stay in the inn. After arriving, first After finding a secret place to rest for a while, after dark, I approached Xishan.

Xiang Baiying walked south and north, and he was originally from Shu, so he naturally knew how to better avoid the eyes and ears of the Miao family in this area. He led the crowd into the mountain. A remote place.

Needless to say, Xiang Baiying and Qi Ning’s martial arts skills, Qi Feng and others are also elite guards, and they have a lot of physical strength. It is necessary to walk through the mountains and rivers to get close to the past, but it becomes very far away. At dawn, I can see the Sun Moon Peak in the clouds and mist, and there is still quite a distance.

Everyone ate dry food and rested for a while, and they were even more careful when traveling during the day.

Until it was dark, I finally reached the foot of Riyue Peak. I simply avoided the eyes and ears of the Miao family along the way. There were several times when I saw the Miao family passing by, and they were discovered in time and successfully avoided. .

The solitary peak of Riyue Peak is independent, the wind blows and the trees move, and there is a lake not far below the mountain, which reflects the Riyue Peak in the lake.

This is the second time for Qi Ning to come here. He knows that Riyue Peak is not like Xishan. Other peaks have roads. All other peaks have stockades. People come and go. Naturally, there are roads. There are very few people going up and down the mountain, and there is only one extremely rugged trail leading up the mountain.

An autumn moon rises from the east, and the whole mountain is bathed in moonlight.
