Qining entered the official post and went to the waiting room of the official post. He saw a bright fire in the official post and a few people talking in the hall. When he saw someone entering the hall, everyone immediately looked over and saw one person. He stood up and walked forward quickly. A few steps away, he already bowed his hands deeply and said: "Iron Bone Sect Luo Zhan, pay your respects to the Marquis!"
At this time, Qi Ning had already recognized that the man in front of him was Luo Zhan, the leader of the Iron Bone Sect who had been captured by the Black Lotus Sect before. He had seen this man when he accidentally entered the Black Stone Palace from the underground passage that day.
Hearing what Luo Zhan said, three or four other people in the hall also came forward and saluted with their hands raised: "Greetings to the Marquis!"
"Sect Master Luo, everyone... who are you?" Qi Ning was a little stunned and didn't understand why this group of people appeared here.
Luo Zhan said with a grateful face: "Master Hou, we have been waiting in Chengdu for several days, just to wait for Master Hou to come back and thank him personally."
"This... Sect Leader Luo, and friends, please sit down and talk first." Qining knew that Luo Zhan's Iron Bone Sect was one of the eight gangs and sixteen sects, and Luo Zhan's status in the world was not low. Being so respectful to him, he couldn't help but give him face. He turned around and said, "Qi Feng, hurry up and have someone serve tea."
Everyone then sat down one after another, leaving the main seat for Qi Ning. Qi Ning went over to sit down and then smiled and said: "I know Sect Leader Luo, who are these...?"
Luo Zhan stood up and said: "Master Hou, these are all sect leaders of one sect, and they are all figures in the eight gangs and sixteen sects. To be honest, we are all attacking Qianwu Ridge. , a prisoner captured by the Black Lotus Sect." At this point, everyone, including Luo Zhan, looked a little embarrassed.
Qi Ning understood something immediately and said: "Are you all safe and sound? This is great. The Black Lotus Sect actually keeps its word."
"Although the people of the Black Lotus Sect are insidious, they always keep their word." A person next to him sighed: "Master Hou, if he hadn't tried his best to save us this time, we people would not be able to make it down the mountain alive."
"This is Ouyang Dun, the leader of the Five Elements Sect!" Luo Zhan introduced.
When Qi Ning heard about "Five Elements Sect", he immediately thought that before the attack on Qianwu Ridge that day, the leader of the Five Elements Sect took the lead in sneaking into the mountains to explore the terrain, but later his entire army was wiped out, while Luo Wuying disguised himself as a disciple of the Five Elements Sect. , sneaked into the station, killed several people, and stirred up chaos.
He originally thought that the leader of the Five Elements Sect had been killed long ago, but when he heard that this person was the leader of the Five Elements Sect, he was a little surprised and asked anxiously: "Are you the leader of the Five Elements Sect? That day... you led people into the mountain to find out the news?"
Ouyang Dun, the leader of the Five Elements Sect, smiled bitterly and said: "I was ambushed by the Black Lotus Sect that day, and all my disciples were killed. However, the Black Lotus Sect captured me and imprisoned me. I thought I would die, but I didn't want to... Hey. , Ouyang Dun will never forget the life-saving grace of the Marquis."
Qi Ning said: "It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive. Master Ouyang Sect, I have my condolences and accept the change!" He could understand Ouyang Dun's state of mind. Although there were casualties in all the gangs and sects in the attack on Qianwu Ridge, people like the Five Elements Sect were The gangs that were almost wiped out were rare.
All the elites of the Five Elements Sect died in Qianwu Ridge, and their vitality was severely damaged. Naturally, Ouyang Dun felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
"Master Hou, we all heard it. Some people wanted to kill us. Only Master Hou stepped forward. In order to save our lives, he not only entered the Black Stone Palace alone, but also won three battles in a row to save our lives." Luo Zhan was both grateful and angry: "If it weren't for the Marquis, someone would have wanted us to be buried with the Black Lotus Sect."
The others were also filled with righteous indignation, with angry expressions on their faces.
Qin Ning knew that when various gangs besieged the Black Stone Palace, many of them wanted to drive out the Black Lotus Sect and did not care about the safety of those prisoners.
The main reason why he went to battle that day was not to save the lives of these people. He swallowed Zhu Qianyi's Bat Blood Pill at that time. If he could not make the eight gangs and sixteen sects withdraw, once the Bat Blood Pill took effect, he would have to give up to the Black Lotus Sect. Burial.
But of course he would not tell everyone about this, and sighed: "You must do your best to attack the Black Lotus Sect, otherwise you will not be poisoned and captured. In fact, I have always felt that there may be some misunderstanding between the Eighth Gangs and Sixteen Sects and the Black Lotus Sect. If everyone's lives are harmed because of this, it's really not worth it." He raised his hand and said: "You are all old Jianghu, and you are also responsible for the Jianghu. If you are killed, the Jianghu will inevitably be in chaos, and I can only do my best."
Everyone looked grateful, and Luo Zhan said: "Everyone comes here to thank the Marquis first. We came to Xichuan this time, and we didn't bring anything with us, and we didn't have any gifts of thanks. We will definitely thank you when we go back. Prepare a generous gift and send it."
"Sect Leader Luo, don't use these clichés." Qi Ning said sternly: "Could it be that I rescued you because I wanted your thanks? You are all heroes. If you care too much about these things, I will underestimate you. "But I was thinking in my heart, these people are all the sect leaders of their own sects, and the generous gift of filial piety should not be too shabby. If they all show their filial piety, they should be able to make a fortune.
"Mr. Hou, it is precisely because we are ruthless in the world that we have to act according to the rules of the world." One person said loudly: "We know that Mr. Hou looks down on us little things, but this is our intention. If Mr. Hou refuses , On the contrary, they look down on us." Others also echoed.
Qi Ning sighed and said: "We will talk about this later. However, you have been wronged this time. After I return to the capital, I still have to have a good talk with the Lord Ximen. I will definitely compensate you no less."
"The Marquis failed to annihilate the Black Lotus Sect for my sake." Ouyang Dun said: "But these monsters must not stay. I originally wanted to wait for the opportunity, but the leader of the Black Lotus Sect killed the leader of the Xiang Gang. Once the matter is verified, it will be inevitable We have to attack Qianwu Ridge again, and with the lessons learned from the past, we will not make the same mistakes again this time."
"That's right." Someone sneered: "Zhuqianyi can only sneak around and shoot cold arrows secretly. Let's see what tricks he can do next time."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a voice sneer: "Swing Yi actually has a false reputation. Not to mention you, even if Ximen Wuhen is here, I will kill him with poison." In the words, I saw Seeing a figure flying into the hall like a bat, everyone was startled and stood up one after another. Then they saw the figure floating down, standing in the hall with his hands behind his back, his head slightly raised, and the corner of his eyes glanced left and right. Sweeping and snorting, it was Jiuxi Poison King Swing Yi.
Qi Ning saw that Swing Yi had come as promised, and he had no doubts about this person's trust in him. However, he didn't come early and he didn't come late. It was really disappointing to come at this time.
"Who are you?" Zhu Qianyi, who was not alone, took two steps forward and pointed at Zhu Qianyi: "How brave you are to break into the official post without permission."
"Not to mention the official post, it is the palace. I can go wherever I want. Who can stop me?" Zhu Qianyi said proudly: "You want to destroy the Black Lotus Sect. I am here. You can all take action together."
Qin Ning thought to himself, you old poisoner, don't brag too much. Although these sect leaders may not be your opponent if they fight alone, but with a few people joining forces, you Swing Yi may not be able to get a good deal. He coughed and said: "The Poison King did as promised. Here we come." That was to point out to a few people that the person standing in front of you is the famous Jiuxi Poison King.
When everyone heard this, their expressions changed slightly.
"So you are Zhuqian Yi." Ouyang Dun's face turned red and his eyes showed murderous intent. He took a step forward and sneered: "Ouyang De of the Five Elements Sect, I need to ask for some advice."
Swing Yi laughed and said: "Ouyang De, you are a rat who can burrow in the soil and dig holes. But if you want to fight with me, are you worthy?" He took a step forward, raised a hand and said: " I will fight you with one hand and make you convinced."
A person next to him sneered: "Swing Yi, you are too arrogant. Do you really think that the heroes in the world are nothing?"
"Whether there is anything, you will know after a test." Swing Yi also said coldly: "I have been busy these days, and you guys are here, so I can stretch my muscles. If you don't want to come together, then It doesn't matter, come up one by one, I will teach you one by one, and see who is more powerful, you eight gangs and sixteen sects, or the Black Lotus Sect." As he spoke, everyone really saw that the old poisonous man raised his hand with five fingers. It turned slightly black.
The Jiuxi Poison King may not be the best in martial arts, but his ability to use poison is well known. Faced with such an old poison, even the top masters must be careful and cautious.
Qi Ning stood up and frowned: "Everyone, the Poison King wants to follow me to the capital to cooperate in the investigation of the previous epidemic case in the capital. If you have any grievances, there is always a chance to resolve them in the long run. Let's sit down and have a cup of tea today. , don’t use force.”
Luo Zhan said: "Everyone, what the Marquis said is that this is an official post and it is not convenient to take action. The days are long and there will be plenty of opportunities to settle the feud between us and the Black Lotus Sect."
Several people also knew that Qi Ning was present, and it was rude after all to use force in the official post in front of Qi Ning. They all gave Zhu Qianyi a vicious look, but Zhu Qianyi snorted coldly, took back his hand, and walked to a table with his hands behind his back. He sat down beside the chair as if there was no one around.
Luo Zhan cupped his hands to Qining and said: "We know that the Marquis is busy with affairs, so we won't bother you much. Marquis, if there is any errand from the Jinyi Marquis Mansion in the future, just send someone to give an order, even if it means going up to the mountain of swords or to the sea of fire." "
Everyone else also stood up one after another and said in unison: "I will go up to the mountain of swords and go down to the sea of fire, no matter what."
This group of people worked cheerfully, and they all said goodbye at the moment. Qi Ning personally walked to the gate of the official post. Everyone saw that although Qi Ning was a Jin Yihou and had a distinguished status, he had no airs at all and was approachable. They felt very comfortable. After saying goodbye, Qi Ning Ning returned to the hall and saw Zhu Qianyi still sitting on the chair. He stepped forward and said with a smile: "Poison King, I have been waiting for a long time these days."
Zhu Qianyi said calmly: "When will you come to Beijing?"
"Poison King seems to be very calm." Qi Ning sat down on the chair next to him and said with a smile: "Didn't Poison King hear that the leader of your sect killed the leader of the Beggar Gang Xiang, and something big will happen next?"
Zhu Qianyi glanced at Qi Ning and said calmly: "Rumors in the market are of no significance. They are just someone who wants to put the blame behind his back. The Black Lotus Sect has been blamed for many things over the years. It doesn't matter if there is one more. Those beggars are like If you really think that their gang leader was killed by the leader, you can kill thousands more Qian Wuling, but I want to see how many of them can make it down the mountain alive."
