A Clash of Gods - Chapter 1165

[Chapter 1155 Rules]

The mighty messenger had copper skin and iron bones, but after all, it was unable to withstand the sharpness of the cold blade.

Qi Ning held the cold blade and inserted it into the throat of the strong messenger, but he pulled the cold blade out of his throat in an instant, and his foot was a little bit between the strong messenger’s abdomen, and the big knife in the strong messenger’s other hand fell to the ground and raised his hand to cover it. His throat was full of disbelief on his face. The throat was poked open, and blood spurted out. Even if he covered it with the palm of the fan, he still couldn’t stop the blood from splattering.

The child holding treasure and Hua Xiangrong were also stunned.

They obviously could not have imagined that the powerful messenger who had the advantage was killed in the hands of Qi Ning in an instant.

After Qi Ning jumped away, he was panting heavily, but his eyes were staring at the powerful messenger like knives.

Vigorous messenger swayed, clutching his throat, with an unbelievable look on his face, but those raised eyes stared at Qi Ning resentfully, and he staggered towards Qi Ning, but only walked three or four times. He took a step, staggered under his feet, and finally fell to the ground. When the huge body fell to the ground, it made a banging sound. The huge body twitched a few times on the ground, and then stopped moving.

One of the six envoys of Ksitigarbha, a powerful messenger, was assassinated by Qi Ning in this way.

The archers who were surrounded by them never dared to act rashly. They watched the vigorous messenger grab Qi Ning’s throat, and they all thought that Qi Ning would die. People don’t even see what’s going on.

Hua Xiangrong felt a chill all over his body, not only did he not step forward, but instead took two steps back, the boy holding the treasure was cold and even pale, and shot Qi Ning several arrows in a row. Knowing that the treasure boy and the others will not let it go, they have been alerted, and their figure is flashing, and they are already hiding behind a big tree.

He let his breathing become smoother, and what happened just now was a decisive survival counterattack, and it was a little incredible to calm down at this time.

At this moment, they heard a sharp sound of bamboo flute. Hua Xiangrong and the boy holding treasure changed their expressions. At first, the sound of bamboo flute only came from one direction, but it quickly continued. The sound of the bamboo flute came from several places, Hua Xiangrong bit his lip and instructed: “All retreat!” Turning around and retreating into the depths of the forest, the boy holding treasure looked a little unwilling, but he still waved his hand. The group of archers under him quickly followed the boy holding treasure and retreated to the depths of the forest.

Qi Ning let out a long breath.

He already knew the meaning of the sound of the bamboo flute. If nothing else, the incident on Riyue Peak had already been discovered by the Miao people. The sound of the bamboo flute should be a signal from the Miao people, and there should be many Miao people coming here for reinforcements. When he came over, Hua Xiangrong obviously did not have a direct conflict with the Miao people, so he quickly withdrew.

Jizo’s plan was obviously to seize the short time and launch a surprise attack on Qining. There is no doubt that according to the plan, before the Miao reinforcements, the assassination of Qining must be completed.

However, the situation obviously did not follow the plan of the Ksitigarbha. Not only did Hua Xiangrong’s group not kill Qi Ning within the set time, but Qi Ning killed the powerful messenger. Now that the Miao people arrived, Hua Xiangrong and others Can only retreat.

Qi Ning did not continue to chase. He suffered a round of attacks, and his physical strength and energy were greatly depleted, and the opponent was difficult to defend against cold arrows.

In just a moment, Hua Xiangrong and the rest of the people had walked cleanly. It didn’t take long before they saw a figure flashing again, and a group of people rushed in from outside the woods. Qi Ning did not continue to hide, and until now, there is no It is necessary to hide their heads and show their tails. The group of people saw Qi Ning coming out from behind the big tree. They were already surrounded by them. Qi Ning glanced at them. They were all Miao people. , this group of people is obviously the real Miao people.

The Miao people were naturally surprised when they saw the corpses everywhere on the ground. They were also shocked when they saw the huge body of the powerful messenger lying on the ground. Some of the Miao people held swords and bows, and surrounded Qi Ning. Someone asked in a cold voice, “Who are you?

How dare you trespass the forbidden area?

”

“Put down the weapon!” Someone saw Qi Ning holding the cold blade and shouted sharply, “Don’t throw the weapon away!”

Qi Ning put away the cold blade, raised his hands, and said loudly: “We are friends, not enemies, where is King Damiao?”

“Who are you, why do you want to see our King Miao?” Someone shouted sharply: “If you trespass the forbidden area, we will execute you!”

“When you meet King Damiao, you can kill or cut, and let King Damiao go.” Qi Ning said loudly, “You send someone to tell King Damiao, and Qi Ning asks to see you!”

Some people in the crowd were a little surprised and said, “Qining? Which Qining?” One person walked over to Qi Ning. Qi Ning saw that the person was slender, and his appearance was quite familiar, but the person also stared at Qi Ning and looked at him. , Qi Ning took off the hat on his head and said with a smile, “Are you the head man of White Fang?”

The man was startled and lost his voice: “Is it… Jin Yi Hou?”

The person in front of him was none other than Bai Yali, one of the six chiefs of Cangxi Miao Village.

Bai Yali is quite prestige in Cangxi Miao Village. When King Miao was killed, the Dandu bone brothers were fighting, and the situation was critical. It was Bai Yali who stood up and suggested that the Miao family should preside over justice. This person is calm and unusual. And knowing right and wrong, Qi Ning saw this person, his heart was slightly relieved, he bowed according to Miao etiquette, and said, “I haven’t seen you for a long time, how is the white-toothed head man?”

Bai Yali was greatly stunned, then glanced at the corpses around him, frowned and said, “Why does Lord Hou appear here? These people… Who are these people?”

“I got news that someone wants to harm the Great Witch, so I made a special trip to report the news.” Qi Ning knew that at this time, the pressure from Dialogue couldn’t tell the truth: “I don’t want to be met by this group of people halfway up the mountain before I see the Great Witch. attack.”

“Someone wants to kill the Great Witch?” White Yali said in surprise, “Who are they?”

Qi Ning sighed: “It’s a long story, the head man with white teeth, can you let me see King Damiao first? By the way, I came here with a few followers, and they were waiting at the foot of the mountain, I don’t know… …?”

“There is also a fight at the foot of the mountain.” Bai Yali said, “People died on both sides. When we arrived, many people ran away. I already sent people to chase them, but I caught three people. They pretended to be Miao people and asked Who they are, they don’t speak, don’t know if it’s yours.”

Qi Ning frowned, thinking that Qi Feng was also attacked. It seems that Jizo not only wanted to take his own life, but also the followers who came with him, and they also wanted to kill them quickly.

Qi Ning said, “Also ask White Yali to show me and see if it’s mine?”

“Master Hou, do you know that Riyue Peak is where the great witch of the Miao family lives.” Bai Yali ignored Qi Ning’s request, with a solemn expression on his face: “The rules of the Miao family, without the permission of the great witch, anyone Trespassing in forbidden areas will be severely punished.”

Qi Ning frowned and said, “Severe punishment? What does the white-headed man mean, is it wrong for me to report the news?”

“If someone really intends to harm the Great Witch, the Marquis can discuss with King Damiao first, and we will naturally strengthen the protection of the Great Witch.” Bai Yali said sternly: “Now King Damiao and we know nothing, the Marquis and yours The subordinates appeared in Riyue Peak, not only that, there are corpses everywhere, and it is hard to tell who is right and who is right.”

Qi Ning was annoyed in his heart, but knew that it was not appropriate to have a direct conflict with the Miao people at this time, and said, “When you see King Miao, you can always tell what’s right and wrong.”

“Riyuefeng has already dispatched people to round up.” Bai Yali said: “No matter who it is, it is not so easy to get out after entering Xishan. It is only natural that Lord Hou wants to see King Damiao, and we dare not confront Lord Hou. It’s disrespectful, after seeing King Damiao, it’s up to King Damiao to ask Dawu how to deal with this matter.” He raised his hand and said, “Master Marquis, I can take you to see King Damiao now, but… I can only deal with you first. Disrespectful and offensive.”

“offend?”

“You trespassed on Riyue Peak, and we can only tie you up before the great witch is released.” Bai Yali said, “Although it is disrespectful, this is a rule passed down by our Miao people from generation to generation, and we don’t dare to do it because of Lord Hou. Your identity will be destroyed, please bear with me.” With a wave of his hand, several Miao men had already taken the rattan rope and stepped forward, seeing that they really wanted to tie Qi Ning up.

Qi Ning’s face suddenly became difficult to look at.

“Baby, you seem to have forgotten that I am an official of the imperial court.” Qi Ning’s voice was slightly cold: “Xichuan is the territory of the Great Chu, whether it is the Han family or the Miao family, they are all the people of the Great Chu, and I am subject to the imperial court. Ordered to come to Xichuan and temporarily take charge of Xichuan affairs, even if it is the seventy-two caves of the Miao family, you must obey my orders.

Qi Ning knew very well that the Miao Family Seventy-two Caves had not yet fully formed a sense of belonging to the Great Chu. To make the Miao Family Seventy-two Caves completely surrender, of course, they had to be kind, but they also had to be deterred. Really make them surrender.

Although he came to Riyue Peak without a report, it seemed that he had indeed broken the rules of the Miao family in principle, but if his dignified lords of the empire really let them tie them up to see King Miao, once the word spread, it would be inevitable. It will make the court lose face, and even make many Miao family members feel disdain. This is not just a matter of their own personal face, but also a matter of the court’s prestige.

Bai Yali’s face was also a little ugly, but the Miao people around him were staring at him, and they did not show awe because of Qi Ning’s identity.

Qi Ning tidied up his clothes, put on his hat again, and said lightly, “I’m going to see King Damiao like this now. If you really want to tie me up, can you come and try?”

Bai Yali held the knife in one hand and clenched the other into a fist, and said solemnly, “Master Hou is deliberately embarrassing me.”

“There’s no need to be embarrassed.” Qi Ning said, “I suddenly changed my mind now. I don’t want to see King Miao. I want to go up the mountain and go directly to see the witch of the Miao family. Since this is the residence of the witch of the Miao family, I broke the rules. How to punish, I will directly ask the Miao witch.” He waved his hand and said, “You all retreat!”
