Qi Ning's attitude obviously made Bai Yali very dissatisfied. As Qi Ning was about to leave, all the Miao people were pointing their swords at Qi Ning, and their arrows were also aimed at Qi Ning's body.
"White-headed man, if I die here, you should know the consequences." Qi Ning frowned and said: "I was attacked here. The purpose of those people was to drag your Miao family's 72nd Cave into the abyss. They didn't do anything. Do you want to help them complete the things they have done?"
"Everyone, stand down!" Qi Ning had just finished speaking when he heard a crisp voice. All the Miao people looked around and saw a figure approaching. There was a Miao person holding a torch and looking for that person. When they saw the person in the past, they all knelt down on one knee. Qining looked over and saw that the person was wearing Miao clothes and a mask on his face. There was a moon-shaped pattern on the mask, which was similar to Hua Xiangrong. The previous mask was almost identical, but the figure was obviously thinner than Hua Xiangrong and not as plump as Hua Xiangrong.
Luna Division!
Qining stared at the Moon Goddess, but saw the Moon Goddess slowly walking forward and said to Qining: "Jin Yihou, the great witch is waiting for you!"
Qi Ning frowned. Hua Xiangrong had conveyed the news in the same way when he went down the mountain before. This made Qi Ning not sure whether the person in front of him was the real Yueshensi.
As soon as Yueshensi appeared, Bai Yali and others knelt down on one knee, bowing their heads and not daring to say a word.
The Great Wizard of the Miao Family is a god-like existence in the hearts of the Miao Family, and the Sun and Moon Gods who protect the Great Wizard of the Miao Family are naturally deeply respected by the Miao Family.
After Yueshensi finished speaking, he turned around and left without saying a word. Qining hesitated for a moment and finally followed. Bai Yali and others just watched Qining follow Yueshensi and leave.
After leaving the woods, they reached the rugged mountain trail again. Yueshensi led the way, and Qining followed for a while, and finally asked: "May I ask the leader of the Beggar Gang, Xiang, if he has seen the great witch?"
Yueshensi, however, remained silent and seemed not to have heard Qining's inquiry.
Qi Ning thought to himself that this Yueshensi had a very cold and arrogant temper. After walking for a while, he suddenly saw a shadow coming down from the mountain. Before Qi Ning could see it clearly, he heard Xiang Baiying's voice saying: "Qining, But Qi Ning?" Under the moonlight, Qi Ning saw clearly that it was Yueshensi who came down from the mountain.
When Qi Ning saw that Xiang Baiying was safe and sound, he felt relieved and quickened his pace and said, "Uncle Xiang!"
Xiang Baiying came down from above, saw Yueshensi, raised his hands to Yueshensi and said: "Shensi, what happened at the bottom of the mountain? I followed your instructions and waited for the great witch to see you. I heard something moving at the bottom of the mountain, but I didn't know. I was really worried about what happened, so I came down to take a look.”
"My order?" Yueshensi looked at Xiang Baiying: "Are you the leader of the Beggar Clan?"
"It's Xiang Baiying!"
"Have you seen me, leader Xiang?" Yueshensi's tone was calm from beginning to end: "But I have never seen you before!"
Xiang Baiying was stunned, and Qining was also stunned, but he immediately understood something and said: "Uncle Xiang, someone is pretending to be the Moon God Division. You have been deceived."
"Being deceived?" Xiang Baiying's face darkened: "After I went up the mountain, I walked halfway up the mountain and saw Yueshensi waiting in person. I felt very strange and didn't know how Yueshensi knew that I was here tonight. I was going to visit the great witch. The Moon God Si took me to a cave above to wait, and told me that this Sun Moon Peak is the residence of the great witch and I am not allowed to move around at will. She went to report to the great witch, but I never saw her come back." Looking at the Moon God Si, Xian He looked suspicious: "You...are Yueshensi?"
Yueshensi said calmly: "The great witch is waiting, you can go see him now." He didn't explain much and just led the way.
Xiang Baiying looked solemn, and he and Qi Ning followed behind Yueshensi. Qi Ning smiled slightly and didn't say much. The three of them walked up the road. After a while, they finally arrived outside a cave. Qi Ning was the second one. When he came here for the first time, he learned that the cave was the residence of the great witch of the Miao family. The cave was oval in shape and looked ordinary from the outside, but Qining knew that the cave was vast and vast, and it was by no means an ordinary place. .
Yueshensi did not stop, and led the two of them into the cave. After walking through a long corridor, the surrounding area suddenly opened up, and then there was fire, but there were torches lit on the mountain wall. They walked forward for a while. , the bottomless deep stream appeared, showing a look of surprise to Baiying, while Yueshensi retreated to the side, stood with his hands behind his back, and said nothing.
The deep stream is dark, and the cave is chilly. The only passage on both sides of the deep stream is a stone beam. The stone beam is unusually narrow, allowing only one person to walk on it.
The fog was hazy on the opposite side. Qi Ning stopped at the edge of the deep stream. Xiang Baiying also followed Qi Ning. The two looked at each other and turned their attention to the opposite side.
The opposite side is deathly quiet. The cave is too spacious. Stalactites are barbed from top to bottom, and all kinds of strange rocks are jagged, forming countless shapes.
Xiang Baiying hesitated for a moment and took a step forward. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a vague voice coming from the opposite side: "How is it always good for old friends to meet each other after seeing each other for years?"
The voice was soft and gentle, and Qining recognized that it was the voice of the great witch of the Miao family. The great witch of the Miao family was not only beautiful in appearance, but also had an unusually pleasant voice, but Qi Ning could still remember it.
The voice clearly came from the opposite side, but it felt as if it was close to your ears, as if it was whispering next to you.
Qining was suddenly surprised when he heard the voice of the great witch of the Miao family.
Qining thought he was talking to himself when the Miao family's great shaman said "meeting old friends", but the words "farewell for many years" actually meant that they had not seen each other for many years. He remembered that he had only left Xichuan for a few months. If he said "months" It's fine if I don't see you, but it's obviously not what I meant after being separated for so many years.
Apart from himself, the only one here is Xiang Baiying. Could the old friend mentioned by the Miao family's great wizard be referring to Baiying? He couldn't help but turn to look at Baiying, wondering if these two people had known each other for a long time
Xiang Baiying looked at the ethereal mist opposite, with a trace of surprise on his face, and obviously a little surprised. His lips moved slightly, and after all he just said: "How is the great witch?"
"Brother Xiang has become the leader of the Beggar Clan back then. However, it is not unusual for Brother Xiang to join the Beggar Clan due to his bold temperament and informality." The great wizard of the Miao family said in a soft voice: "Brother Xiang still remembers Ah Huan?"
"Ah Huan?" Xiang Baiying pondered for a moment, seeming to be thinking about something and did not answer immediately.
Qi Ning saw it and thought that the two of them were really old acquaintances. How noble the Miao family's great witch was in the hearts of the Miao family, but at this moment, he called Xiang Baiying his eldest brother. This was really weird.
The great wizard of the Miao family revealed a lot of information in just one sentence.
From the words of the great witch of the Miao family, it can be judged that the two knew each other before Xiang Baiying joined the Beggar Clan. The great witch of the Miao family called Xiang Baiying eldest brother, with a lot of respect in her tone, and she seemed to have a different temperament towards Xiang Baiying. They are quite familiar with each other. These signs show that the two not only know each other, but also have a close friendship.
One is the leader of the Beggar Clan, and the other is the great witch of the Miao family. Both of them are figures who make the ground tremble whenever they lift their feet. What was the intersection between these two people back then
"The sunset is like smoke, the floating clouds are thousands of illusions, and the dianthus are dancing in plain clothes...!" The Miao family's great wizard said in an eerie voice, "Brother Xiang, don't you remember?"
Xiang Baiying looked a little embarrassed and said: "This poem is very good."
"Then do you remember who wrote this?"
Xiang Baiying asked: "Isn't it written by... the great witch?"
There was silence for a while, and the Miao family's great witch didn't speak for a long time. After a long time, the Miao family's great witch's voice was heard: "It's certainly not a trivial matter for you two to come to Sun Moon Peak."
Qi Ning then took a step forward and said, "Does the Great Witch know that there is a group of people ambushing me at Sun Moon Peak tonight, intending to put me to death?"
The great wizard of the Miao family said: "If you are killed here, Cangxi Miao Village will be involved, and there will be a catastrophe next."
"They have many assassins and many opportunities to attack in many places." Qining said: "But they tried their best to gain my trust at the cost of abandoning their sons. Their purpose was to lure me into Cangxi Miao Village, because no matter where I died, They cannot achieve their goals anywhere. Only by dying in Xishan can the court mistakenly think that all this is related to Cangxi Miao Village. The court governs the country according to law, and the Imperial Duke died in Cangxi Miao Village. Even if the court wanted to protect the Chu His majesty will not be ignored."
"The state has national laws, and families have family rules." The Miao family's great wizard said calmly: "I understand what you said."
"So the imperial court will definitely summon the great witch for interrogation, but the great witch is like a god in the hearts of the people in the Miao family's Seventy-Two Cave. They will never tolerate the slightest blasphemy against the great witch." Qi Ning said seriously: "So At that time, no matter whether the great witch is willing or not, the Miao family will not watch the great witch accept the interrogation of the court, and the court will never give in on this matter. As the great witch said, if they succeed tonight, It is a catastrophe for both the imperial court and the Miao family’s Seventy-Two Cave.”
The great shaman of the Miao family sighed quietly: "With the change of dynasties, wars and wars, and the destruction of all living beings, the Miao family has only hoped to stay away from wars for generations, and to pass on peace and tranquility in the land where our ancestors have lived for generations. As a great shaman, my biggest responsibility is We must protect the people of the Miao family and prevent them from getting involved in worldly disputes, no matter what the cost."
"What the great witch said is absolutely true." Qi Ning said: "There is a secret force hiding in Xichuan. They are making trouble in Chu State with the purpose of provoking chaos and fighting. However, the mastermind behind this force has always been mysterious, and According to our judgment, his status must also be very high, because many people who could not be driven by others worship at his feet and are driven by him. This person has a lot of resources at his disposal, and I even I fell into his trap easily and almost caused a huge disaster."
The great wizard of the Miao family pondered for a moment, and finally said: "You came to see me at Sun Moon Peak because you want to know if I am the mastermind behind the scenes?"
