Hong Mendao killed two people in a blink of an eye. The shopkeeper's eyes widened. Before he could recover, Hong Mendao was already in front of him and handed over the wine bottle.
The shopkeeper opened his mouth slightly and turned around to leave. Hong Mendao had already raised his knife and slashed at him. He struck out quickly and swiftly. The light of the knife flashed past, and the head flew up. He dropped the bloody sword in his hand to the ground and said calmly: "I'll die after drinking." At least it's a whole corpse." But he went straight to the back hall.
Qi Ning thought to himself that the people from the Shenhou Mansion were indeed very decisive in taking action.
Not long after, he saw Hong Mendao coming out with two large packages. Qining knew without asking that the packages must contain provisions for the road. The journey was long, and food and water were always needed to be replenished along the way. Food and wine are poisonous, but searching in the back hall naturally doesn't have this problem.
Not long after, I saw Hong Mendao returning to his seat, with something wrong on his face.
"Shen Hou, that person appeared again." Hong Mendao hesitated for a moment and finally said.
Ximen Wuhen also frowned and sneered: "The ghost is still here!"
Qi Ning was a little confused and asked: "Fifth Senior Brother, who showed up again?"
Hongmendao didn't say much. Ximen Wuhen thought for a moment and then said, "Go and get some food. Let's travel all night."
Hongmendao agreed and went to the back to get some food. Qining saw that there was a lot of food, so naturally he would not continue to eat the poisonous food. However, Ximen Wuhen and Hongmendao knew that they had to walk a long way and physical strength was indispensable. So the three of them ate with their heads down. Before they finished, they heard a horse neighing from outside. Hongmendao and Ximen Wuhen looked up almost at the same time. Hongmendao said in a voiceless voice: "No!" His figure flashed and he was already heading towards Snatched outside the door.
Qi Ning was even more puzzled and wanted to see what was going on. He stood up and walked out the door, but Ximen Wuhen did not stop him.
Walking out of the door of the wine shop, the sky had already darkened. He turned around and looked over, his expression suddenly changed. He saw the horse pulling the cart lying on the ground. What was horrifying was that the horse's throat had been cut, and the throat was moored towards the ground. The horse was bleeding, but the horse was not completely dead for a while. It was twitching on the ground, and the horse's blood stained the ground red.
A chill ran down Qining's spine.
Hong Mendao clenched his hands into fists and his face was extremely ugly.
Qining looked around, but found no one. He really didn't know who was so cruel as to kill a horse alive.
"There should be horses in the backyard of the wine shop." Ximen Wuhen's voice came from behind. Qining immediately turned around and saw that Ximen Wuhen no longer had his hands in his sleeves, but his hands behind his back, but his expression was very calm: "Old Five , lead the horses to hitch the cart, and we’ll set off immediately!”
Hong Mendao agreed and went straight to the backyard.
This wine shop is not in front of the village and has no access to the ground. It is inconvenient to travel. It is natural to have a horse. However, the horse brought by Hongmendao is really a bit inferior. Compared with the horse that was killed, it is obviously much worse.
However, in this case, we can only make do, otherwise we can only walk on foot.
Hongmendao harnessed the horse again. The previous horse had stopped moving. Ximen Wuhen and Qining got on the carriage, but Hongmendao returned to the wine shop. After a while, he came out and drove the carriage ahead. After a while, Qi Ning Ning couldn't help but poke his head out of the car window and look back, only to find that the wine shop was in flames. Only then did he know that Hong Mendao had burned down the wine shop before leaving.
He knew that Hongmen Road was deliberately destroying traces. Maybe no one would be able to find out that Ximen Wuhen stopped here, but it would be safer to burn the place clean with fire.
It was already dark, and there were no lights in the carriage, so it was naturally pitch black. Qining could vaguely see the outline of Ximen Wuhen's face opposite, but it was really hard to tell what expression the old guy had on his face.
"God, the sky is so dark, can the fifth brother see the road clearly?" Qi Ning said: "But Mo lost his way while driving at night, and walked farther and farther, which will waste time when the time comes."
"If he can't walk at night, he is not qualified to be an errand in the Shenhou Mansion." Ximen Wuhen said lightly: "I gave him a road map, and he knows how to go!"
"Road map?" Qining was startled and realized something: "So, the God knows the way to the Snowy Mountains, so have you been to the Snowy Mountains?"
Ximen Wuhen didn't answer, and leaned against the carriage.
I don’t know how long they walked, but Qining was about to fall asleep when he suddenly heard a horse neighing and the carriage stopped suddenly. Ximen Wuhen said in a deep voice: "What's wrong?"
"Shenhou, that... that person has appeared again." Hong Mendao's voice came from outside the carriage, "He... he has been following us!" There was a hint of panic in the voice.
Hong Mendao is one of the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper in the Shenhou Mansion. He was able to be sent by Ximen Wuhen to lurk in the Northern Han Dynasty for a long time. This person's psychological quality is certainly extraordinary, but at this moment, his tone shows the panic in his heart. He is obviously worried about that person. People are very afraid.
Ximen Wuhen sneered: "A beast is a beast. After following him for so long, he still has the physical strength to hold on. I want to see how long he can hold on. Is it possible that he will follow us to the Snowy Mountains?"
Qi Ning was confused and felt that the matter was extremely strange. He couldn't help but ask: "Shenhou, could it be that... you have been being followed?" But he felt that the word "following" was really inappropriate. If you were being followed The person following him, of course, tried his best to cover up his whereabouts and not be discovered, but the current situation is that the enemy does not care at all about being discovered by Ximen Wuhen. The man is killing horses outside the wine shop, so naturally he wants to Ximen Wuhen. demonstration.
Ximen Wuhen is the Divine Marquis of the Divine Marquis Mansion, and his status in the world is unparalleled. Even in the court, he is an Imperial Marquis. Such a person is feared to be avoided by everyone in the world, so how can he be provoked
Tai Sui's troubles can only show that the other party's background is really not small.
Ximen Wuhen still did not answer Qi Ning's question, but just ordered: "Lao Wu, don't worry about him, you go your way, the beast does not dare to approach."
Qi Ning frowned, thinking that Ximen Wuhen called the man a beast, but he didn't know why he called him such a name. Was he insulting him out of anger, or was he just calling him a beast
Hongmendao drove forward again. Qining was full of doubts and sighed, saying: "Does the Godhead really treat me as a prisoner? If you treat me like this, why did you want to marry me to Zhan Ying in the first place?"
Ximen Wuhen finally snorted coldly and said, "You want to know who is following us?"
"I'm just curious about who in the world dares to follow you."
"Don't worry, this beast has been following me for a long time. Look at it, unless one of me and that beast dies, he will always follow me." Ximen Wuhen said coldly: "You want to know who he is? There is no need to worry, as long as you are by my side, you will always see him." He added: "You are more familiar with him than I am."
Qi Ning was startled and didn't know why.
The car was rolling, and since Ximen Wuhen didn't tell the truth, Qining didn't ask any more questions and lay down in the car.
He fell asleep in a daze. He didn't know how long it had been before he suddenly felt that his throat seemed to be pinched by an iron hoop, making it difficult to breathe. The feeling of suffocation frightened Qining. When he opened his eyes, he found that Ximen Wuhen Right before his eyes, his throat was pinched by one of Ximen Wuhen's hands. Ximen Wuhen's eyes looked like the eyes of a wild beast in the dim light, full of bloodthirsty aura.
Qi Ning felt that all his strength was disappearing little by little, and he struggled hard. He didn't know why Ximen Wuhen would kill him while he was sleeping. This person clearly wanted to take him to the Snowy Mountains, but why did he suddenly change his mind? Want to take your own life
His dantian was blocked and he could not mobilize the power of his dantian to resist. At this time, he used all his strength to raise his arms and grabbed Ximen Wuhen's wrist, but Ximen Wuhen's hand was like steel. Qining used all his strength I couldn't shake it at all, and my heart suddenly became cold, thinking to myself that I was going to be strangled to death by this old guy.
He kicked his legs desperately, and there was a violent noise in the carriage. The carriage suddenly stopped, which obviously alarmed Hong Mendao outside. The curtain of the carriage opened, and Hong Mendao was shocked when he saw the scene in the carriage, and said in horror: "God Hou ,you… !"
Ximen Wuhen suddenly turned his head to look at Hongmendao, with a fierce look in his eyes. Hongmendao was horrified. Seeing Qining's struggle getting smaller and smaller, he knew that if he didn't pull away, Qining would probably be strangled to death by Ximen Wuhen. After a slight hesitation, he finally rushed forward, grabbed Ximen Wuhen's arm, and begged: "Honor, this is... this is my junior sister's husband, you... you old man...!"
Ximen Wuhen gasped and gasped, but did not speak. Hongmendao tried his best to pull Ximen Wuhen's arm away. Ximen Wuhen made a sharp voice: "You are looking for death...!" He slapped Hongmendao with his palm.
Hong Mendao took a step, his body floated backwards, and he had already exited the carriage, but Ximen Wuhen followed him out like a shadow.
At this time, Qi Ning was breathing heavily and coughing continuously. He was very angry in his heart. After Shun was relieved, he got up and got out of the carriage, only to find that he was in an empty land. Ximen Wuhen was facing Hong Mendao struck again and again, but Hongmendao's martial arts was naturally far from comparable to Ximen Wuhen, and he did not dare to make a real move against the god, so he could only dodge again and again.
When Qi Ning saw Ximen Wuhen looking crazy, he suddenly realized something and shouted: "He... he's sick!"
Qin Ning naturally knew that Ximen Wuhen was ill, and the illness Ximen Wuhen suffered from was extremely strange. When the attack occurred, his temperament changed drastically, completely different from usual.
Qi Ning remembered that when Ximen Wuhen was ill before, he seemed to be stupid and could not sit still. Ximen Zhanying also said that sometimes Ximen Wuhen sat there for a whole day without eating or drinking, and seemed to have no interest in external matters. known.
Today he suddenly acted violently, and Qining concluded that it must be the onset of that weird madness.
Hongmendao heard Qining shouting and seemed to understand something, shouting: "Sir, there is a sheepskin bag in the carriage, you... you throw it to me!" As he spoke, Ximen Wuhen slapped him again, Hongmendao He tried his best to dodge, but was a little embarrassed.
