Qi Ning understands Chi Danmei's character, and since she said so, she will never change her mind.
Chi Danmei chose to stay and live with him, which really touched Qi Ning's heart. At this moment, he saw Bai Shenghao hurried over and offered his hand to Chi Danmei. Then he said to Qi Ning: "Sir, sir, The man wakes up and wants to see you."
Qi Ning knew who Bai Shenghao was talking about, so he didn't hesitate and hurried to the room over there. When he got to the door, he saw Elder Suzaku waiting in front of the door. Qi Ning went over to open the door and entered the room. When Tang Nuo shed a trace of sweat, Xiang Tianbei's upper body clothes were taken off, and dozens of silver needles were inserted from his chest to his lower abdomen, like hedgehogs.
"Miss Tang...?"
Tang Nuo raised his head and said, "He is seriously injured and his internal organs are damaged. Don't say too much." He stood up and walked out of the door. The disciple who was arranged to assist him also handed over to Qining and walked out. go.
After going out, the door was closed, and immediately only Xiang Tianbei and Qi Ning were left in the room. Qining approached and saw that Xiang Tianbei's face was pale and his breathing was very weak, but it was not as good as before. His dying condition has obviously improved slightly.
Xiang Tianbei opened his eyes slightly and looked at Qining, who said softly: "We will try our best to save you."
However, Xiang Tianbei reluctantly raised a hand and pointed a finger at a chair. Qining saw the gown Xiang Tianbei had taken off lying on the chair and asked in a low voice: "You want me to get the clothes? "
Xiang Tianbei opened his mouth slightly and said: "Bu Dai...Bu Dai...!"
Qining did not hesitate, walked over and picked up the clothes, but there were some sundries inside. In addition to two small porcelain bottles, there was indeed a small gray bag made of coarse cloth. The mouth of the bag was tied with a string. Look at the string. They were all a little fluffy, and it looked like the bag hadn't been opened for a long time.
Qi Ning took the gray bag in his hand, walked to Xiang Tianbei, and said in unison: "Is this one?" and showed the bag in front of Xiang Tianbei.
When Xiang Tianbei saw the bag, he let out a long breath and said feebly: "Open...!" After only saying two words, he coughed violently, and then blood spilled from the corner of his mouth. Qining was startled and hurriedly shouted : "Miss Tang!"
Tang Nuo had already rushed in, took a pill and stuffed it into Xiang Tianbei's mouth. Then he said to Qining: "He can't speak and is still in danger. You should get out first." He reached out and took off Xiang Tianbei's chest. A silver needle was inserted into other acupoints.
Qi Ning saw Xiang Tianbei close his eyes and knew that although Xiang Tianbei killed Mo Ying, the trauma he suffered was too serious and it was impossible to recover in a short time.
He put the gray bag in his arms and went out. Xiang Tianbei still thought about the bag when he was dying. The things inside were naturally extraordinary, and Qining didn't want too many people to see it. In terms of things, it’s not that he doesn’t trust the Beggar Clan, but it’s just that Qining doesn’t want the Beggar Clan to get involved too deeply unless it’s absolutely necessary.
Although the Beggar Gang is the largest gang in the world, it is still at a disadvantage compared to the imperial court. If the Beggar Gang follows him and directly becomes an enemy of Xiao Shaozong, and if he is ultimately defeated by Xiao Shaozong, Xiao Shaozong will definitely defeat the Beggar Gang. Beggar becomes a rebel, and at that time, the Beggar Clan will face extinction.
After going out, Elder Zhuque and Bai Shenghao were both outside. When they saw Qining coming out, they looked at each other. Elder Zhuque said, "Sir, I have made some discoveries."
"Discover?"
Elder Suzaku looked solemn: "I just received a report that a strange figure appeared in Lantern Alley. They were about to sneak up on them, but they found the brothers guarding there and did not continue to come."
"Lantern Alley?"
"It's in the east." Elder Zhuque said, "It's only three or four miles away from here."
Qi Ning sneered and said: "It seems that they have really set their sights on this place."
Elder Zhuque said: "Sir, they may not be sure that he is here, but they probably know that he has a relationship with the Beggar Gang, so they want to send someone to sneak in to find out the news. If they are really sure that he is here, then they will It’s not just as simple as gathering information.”
Qi Ning nodded slightly, Elder Suzaku's words were not wrong.
Mo Ying led the crowd to attack him and failed. Xiao Shaozong naturally got the news soon. If he was really sure that Qining was at the helm of the Ghost Golden Sheep, he would not be merciful. It would be a long night and a dream, and he would probably mobilize his troops to come directly. Encirclement and Suppression Ghost Golden Sheep Division, even if Qi Ning really escapes, can still destroy one of Qi Ning's strongholds in the capital.
It was precisely because Xiao Shaozong could not determine Qining's whereabouts that he did not act rashly. Although he had the ability to destroy the ghost Golden Sheep Branch, the consequences were not small. At least he would become enemies with the Beggar Clan, and it would be easy to do so. It caused riots in the capital.
"You two, since Xiao Shaozong has set his sights on this place, it will definitely not be safe." Qi Ning said, "I have something to ask of you two."
"Your Majesty, just ask." Elder Zhuque said seriously: "Gui Jinyang also has five or six hundred disciples in the capital, and there are many good people among them. If the news is spread quickly and the disciples near the capital are summoned, within three days, It shouldn't be a problem to gather thousands of people. In addition, although many beggars are not disciples of the Beggar Clan, they have always followed the orders of the Beggar Clan. We have eyes and ears everywhere in the capital, except the palace, so it is not difficult to find out the news."
Qining shook his head and said: "Thanks to the help of you two and many brothers, I rescued my family this time. I will keep this friendship in my heart, but I can't involve you in the future. You are a Jianghu gang. If you really face If you are an enemy of the imperial court, no matter whether Xiao Shaozong succeeds or fails, the imperial court will definitely regard you as a formidable enemy, and you will definitely bring disaster to the Beggar Clan."
Elder Zhuque and Bai Shenghao looked at each other, both frowning. They naturally knew that what Qi Ning said was true. If the Beggar Gang really followed Qi Ning with all their strength this time, then the court would naturally know that the Beggar Gang has the ability to cause trouble in the capital. , no matter who sits on the Dragon Throne at the feet of the Emperor, there is no room for beggars.
"Sir...!" As soon as Bai Shenghao opened his mouth, Qining interrupted: "I have one last thing to ask you two."
"My lord, just say so."
"I have troubled you to rescue my family members from Kyoto Prefecture this time, but they still cannot stay in the capital." Qi Ning said: "I just don't know if you two can take them out of the city and find a safe place to settle down temporarily. .”
Elder Zhuque pondered for a moment and then said: "The capital has not been closed yet, but they know that Sir Alex is in Beijing. It is very likely that Sir Alex wants to move his family out, and the search will be strict. But this matter is not of concern to the Beggar Gang. It's not difficult. Sir, please give us some time. We can send them out of the city before dusk tomorrow at the latest. It will be even easier if they find a safe and hidden place. When it comes to finding hidden places, the Beggar Gang is good at it."
Bai Shenghao also said: "Don't worry, Sir, this matter will be left to us." He handed over his hands and said: "Since Sir Alex has made a decision, without further delay, I will make arrangements now. When everything is done, we will make arrangements tomorrow afternoon." It’s time to go, we’ll be out of the city before dusk.”
Qining cupped his hands and said gratefully: "Excuse me, both of you."
"Sir, you can trust us when you leave this matter to us." Elder Zhuque said, "Sir, it's almost dawn, you should rest for a while. Master Bai, go make arrangements to leave the city!"
Bai Shenghao handed over his hands and quickly retreated. Qining asked again: "Where is Mrs. Tian's arrangement?"
Elder Zhuque pointed to the left and said: "After passing this corridor, there is a house there. Mrs. Tian was frightened and passed out when she was brought back. However, Miss Tang took a look and found that she was fine. She should wake up soon. Come here, I don’t know if I’m awake now.”
Qi Ning said: "I'll go over and take a look first."
A corridor leads directly to the end, which is a house. The door is closed. Qi Ning gently opens the door and closes it behind his back after entering the house. There is another inner room inside. Qi Ning turns in and sees that the interior is also simple. The bed is not small. Tian Xuerong is lying on the bed at the moment. The clothes on his body are quite clean. It doesn't look like he came out of prison. Qining sees that Tian Xuerong has not woken up yet. He approaches and sees that mature and beautiful face. He was very calm at the moment, knowing that when Chi Danmei and others entered the Kyoto Prefecture to rescue people, they would inevitably fight with the officials. Tian Xuerong might be frightened during the fight.
Qi Ning remembered that this beautiful woman was quite courageous. She was kidnapped in the East China Sea and she was someone who had experienced storms. However, she was frightened this time.
However, Qining was relieved to see that she was safe and sound.
The reason why the Tian family was implicated was of course because of himself. Thinking that Tian Xuerong's many years of hard work might be ruined this time, and in the final analysis it was because of his relationship with him, Qining felt a little guilty. In the first place, Tian Xuerong turned to him in order to let Tian Xuerong go. The Tian family leaned against a big tree to enjoy the shade, but who knew it would end up like this? If she had known today's outcome, I'm afraid Tian Xuerong would not have interacted with Jinyi Qi's family even if she was beaten to death.
Without making a sound, he took out the bag from his arms, walked to a chair and sat down, carefully opened the bag, and took out something from inside.
There is nothing else in the bag but this one.
This thing is made of pure silver, and is completely silver-white. It is like a small ornament, but it is in the shape of a long sword. However, the entire long sword is only as long as the middle finger. On both sides of the silver sword, there are engraved patterns from top to bottom. It has a curve, like a snake, but if you look closely, it is not a snake.
If Xiang Tianbei hadn't been thinking about this silver sword even when he was dying, Qi Ning wouldn't have felt anything special even if he saw it. But precisely because of Xiang Tianbei, Qi Ning knew this silver sword-like ornament. It's unusual, but even after looking at it from top to bottom, I can't figure out what the mystery is.
"Is it a token?" Qi Ning thought.
If it is a token, what is its function? Xiang Tianbei asked himself to take out the silver sword ornaments at this time. What was his purpose
What Qining hopes to know most from Xiang Tianbei is the emperor's current safety. Since Xiao Shaozong has taken action against him, Xiang Tianbei must have noticed something in the palace. Xiang Tianbei probably knows the emperor's life and death, and he doesn't know it at the moment. Only when Xiang Tianbei recovers a little can we ask him whether this silver sword ornament has anything to do with the emperor.
