Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1652 Sisters
  In general, Fusu should be indispensable for Lianxin's survival to this day.

If he wanted to eliminate the weeds, he could have killed them all back then, and there was no need to wait until today to do it again.

Of course, Ji Bu also heard about the recent shocking events in Xianyang, so it cannot be ruled out that Fusu wanted to silence him in order to prevent his situation from deteriorating further.

However, Ji Bu was generally willing to believe what Dianqing said.

Because of such a close distance, if the other party wants to kill someone, it will be difficult for the two of them to stop it, so there is no need to talk too much.

The reputation of "a bronze head and an iron arm, able to fight in a hundred battles without injury" has been resounding throughout the world many years ago.

At this time, Dianqing continued to ask Ying Sermon, "What's wrong with this child now?"

Yingbu was still wary of the ceremony, but now he was willing to answer, perhaps to explain the situation to Ji Bu.

"She... is now suffering from a terminal illness. I have taken her to seek medical treatment many times, but to no avail. Only that woman Tian Mi can cure her."

"Now that the box is gone, she will definitely not help anymore!"

At this point, Yingbu's anger emerged again, and he glared at Ji Bu fiercely.

Ji Bu was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.

It was true that he was at fault, but he didn't know that Yingbu worked for Tian Mi to save the child's life!

And... to be honest, Ji Bu felt that Tian Mi was unreliable. Even if Yingbu offered her the Stone of Enchantment, she might not cooperate obediently.

But at this time, Yingbu was so angry that it was inconvenient for him to say anything.

Dianqing had no worries and asked directly, "What can she do?"

Although Yingbu was in a state of anger, he spoke unexpectedly much more cheerfully. He simply replied, "A medicine, I don't know what it is, but the child's symptoms did ease immediately after taking it."

"That woman Tian Mi said that as long as she takes more medicine, she can be cured, but she needs me to exchange the Stone of Fire for her."

"I understand." After hearing Yingbu's answer, Dianqing Weng nodded angrily, then glanced down at the girl who seemed to be suffering from an illness and was shaking all over, then turned around and left.

When Ji Bu saw this, he couldn't help but ask, "What are you going to do?"

"Go to Kuei Hall and look for Tian Mi." Dianqing replied without any emotion.

"What do you want to do? Trade with her, or rob her?" Ji Bu asked further.

"It's too much trouble to do business with that kind of woman."

In other words, he wanted to take it by force.

Upon hearing this, Yingbu immediately tried to stop the ceremony, "You can't do this!"

"That woman Tian Mi is too difficult to deal with. Doing this will definitely anger her. Once she fails, she will probably never have another chance..."

For a reckless man like Yingbu, he also knew that taking things by force was the most convenient plan and also his favorite plan.

But Tian Mi is the leader of Kuei Hall and has tens of thousands of peasant disciples under his command. There are at least thousands of Kuei Hall disciples around Daze Mountain at this time. It is not easy to force her to submit by force.

Moreover, this woman is very cunning. She did not take out the medicine willingly, and Yingbu cannot trust it.

Of course, the most important thing is that now it is people who work as swordsmen, and I work as fish and meat.

Tian Mi is his only way to save Lian Xin, and Ying Bu has no choice at all.

Faced with Yingbu's dissuasion, Dianqing stopped, his muscular back facing the two of them, and responded in a deep voice:

"She has only two choices - hand over the medicine, or die!"

Are there many farmers?

Let’s see if there are more people on the battlefield or your peasants?
  The ceremony is held across the battlefield, and no one is injured in a hundred battles. No matter how many farm disciples there are, it will be useless if they don't break the defense!
  This is the benefit of practicing hard skills - in fact, hard skills can also be regarded as a kind of heresy, and it also conforms to the rule that it is easy to get started but difficult to master.

Similarly, once one truly reaches the extreme level of cultivation, the effects of hard skills are often far beyond those of ordinary martial arts practitioners.

Even for Gai Nie, the best swordsman in the world, it would be troublesome for him to face a crowd of thousands of people, but for the ceremony, tens of thousands of people didn't matter.

"She can't die!" Yingbu heard this and immediately warned the ceremony angrily.

For him, Tian Mi must not die before ensuring that Lian Xin's illness can be cured!
  But not for celebrations.

"She could die."

"If she dies, this child will be completely hopeless!" Yingbu's eyes were filled with tears and he wanted to rush out and have a fight with the ceremony.

If he could kill Tian Mi, why would he deign to be a dog to that kind of woman?

Dianqing did not continue to respond to Yingbu, but told the two of them, "You guys will take her to Zuimenglou to settle down first. My junior sister is protecting His Highness Lianyi there."

"Lian Yi?" Yingbu, who was fuming, was stunned.

Why does this name sound so close to Lianxin?

Ji Bu was anxious this time, and asked with a pale face, "Do you still know Lian Yi's identity!?"

Dianqing replied calmly, "His Royal Highness the Young Master's order is to protect the orphan of Changping Lord Xiong Qi, and of course it is not just His Highness Lian Xin."

This time when he came to Dongjun, he also called Mei Sanniang, who had been staying in Songhai to become moldy. After all, he had to protect two people at the same time, and they were both girls. It was not convenient for him to be alone.

Originally, he secretly protected Lian Yi outside Zuimeng Tower, while Mei Sanniang secretly protected Lian Xin.

But then something unexpected happened, and Lian Xin, who had been hiding well alone, was suddenly blocked by a large group of people from the farmer's family.

Because Dianqing repeatedly warned Lianxin's safety in everything, this bad-tempered woman resisted and did not take action rashly. Instead, after confirming that Lianxin would be safe for the time being, she hurried to Zuimeng Tower to inform Dianqing.

Dianqing left Mei Sanniang at Zuimenglou and came to keep an eye on Lianxin, who was in an unknown situation. Finally, he followed Ji Bu and the others here.

After hearing the questions and answers from Ji Bu and Dianqing, Yingbu also came to his senses and exclaimed in shock, "So Lian Yi is... the eldest daughter of Lord Chang Ping, His Highness Mi Lian, who disappeared early and whose whereabouts are unknown! ?”

Lian Yi's real name is Mi Lian, and she is the eldest daughter of Changping Lord Xiong Qi. Lian Yi is her nickname, and not many people know it - Lian Xin is also a nickname, and her real name should be Mi Xin.

After Lord Changping was defeated and died, although she, her mother and sister fled back to Chu State, they were separated in the subsequent war.

Before her death, Lord Changping's wife entrusted Lianxin to the care of Yingbu, then commander of the Thunder Leopard Corps, but she was no longer able to take care of her eldest daughter who had disappeared.

However, some people still missed the orphan of Lord Changping. Before Xiang Yan died in the battle, he secretly handed over the matter to Ji Bu, who was the commander of the Shadow Tiger Army at the time.

Later, after many twists and turns, he finally found Mi Lian, who had already lived in the Fengyue Place under the name of the farmer Shennongtang, which was also the famous Zuimeng Tower, which was also considered the top one.

Of course, the kind that does not sell oneself.

Yingbu realized another thing at this moment, "So you have been very close to the Zhu family of Shennong Hall over the years, and it was also for His Highness Mi Lian?"

"Absolutely." Ji Bu replied vaguely without further explanation.

The relationship between him, the Zhu family, and Shennong Hall is a bit complicated to say the least. Lian Yi can only be considered a part of it, not the most important part.

He himself actually doesn't want Lian Yi to stay in a romantic place like Zuimenglou, even if the oiran Huaying has a close relationship with him, even if Lian Yi is just doing business.

But it always doesn't sound good for a woman to stay in a place like this.

But Lian Yi didn't cooperate with him at all and refused to leave, so he had no choice but to accommodate him. At this time, Yingbu frowned and complained, "Why did you never tell me about His Highness Mi Lian?"

"Did you tell me about Lianxin?" Ji Bu asked immediately.

A pair of comrades stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes, and no one could speak.

Since the fall of Chu State, they have never met each other, and they can't talk about each other.

At this time, the ceremony had left silently.

His duty is to protect the two sisters Lianyi and Lianxin, and he really has nothing to say to Ji Buyingbu, the two remaining members of the old Chu party.

If he hadn't wanted to find out Lian Xin's situation, he wouldn't have bothered to talk nonsense with Ying Bu.

Now, it was time for him to get down to business.

As for what Yingbu was worried about, it was not a problem for the ceremony.

If Tian Mi knows what's going on, just cooperate and hand over the medicine. If she doesn't cooperate...then kill her directly!

At worst, he could just personally escort Lian Xin to Songhai and seek help from his big boss.

The farmer was indeed good at medicine, but Dianqing didn't believe that Tian Mi could be better than the two miraculous doctors in Quicksand.

Yingbu turned around and found that Dianqing was missing. He didn't care about gossiping with Ji Bu anymore and rushed out to find someone to stop Dianqing from causing chaos.

But he was stopped by Ji Bu, "Forget it, leave him alone for now and send this child to Zuimenglou."

"Then what if he really kills Tian Mi?" Yingbu asked with wide eyes.

"The Farmer's Sixth Hall is currently busy snatching the Yinghuo Stone. Tian Mi probably spends most of his time with Tian Hu and his group. Although Jianqing's strength is strong, he may not be able to benefit from the many masters of the Farmer." Ji Buwei explained, "It's better to put the child in good place first. Her symptoms seem to be getting worse."

"Sending her to Zuimenglou will not only provide someone to take care of her, but also reunite the sisters. We will discuss it in the long term."

"Don't worry, I will definitely help you with this matter."

Ying Bu was finally moved by some sincere persuasion. He temporarily suppressed his impulse and agreed to Ji Bu's arrangement.

The two of them took Lian Xin and quickly rushed to the direction of Zuimeng Tower.

………………

Daze Mountain, outside Chiyou Hall.

Several vague figures moved quickly through the forest in two groups.

There were only two people in the front group, and there were more people in the back group, about four or five people.

The two sides chased each other quickly through the woods and came to a lake.

The two people in the front were the first to rush to the lake and stop. It was Gao Jianli and Big Iron Hammer from the Mo family. The people chasing them were naturally the farmers.

The entire lake is empty, except for a few protruding rocks about a hundred steps away from the shore.

Gao Jianli nodded and winked at the big hammer, then without any further delay, he immediately pulled out the Shuihan Sword, and his true energy surged out, turning into low-temperature cold air along the sword body and lingering on it.

Then Gao Jianli swung his sword, and the extremely cold sword energy immediately rushed across the water towards the reef, and a wide ice road appeared in front of Gao Jianli and the two of them.

The two men immediately rushed up the ice channel and rushed towards the rocks in the lake.

After approaching the reef, the sledge hammer roared, jumped up and jumped the last distance. At the same time, he picked up the chain, threw out the sledgehammer in his hand, and hit the ice heavily.

The ice channels all disintegrated and sank to the bottom of the lake with continuous clicking sounds.

This was the purpose of Gao Jianli's wink to Big Iron Hammer.

They have to cut off this road, otherwise the farmers can chase them directly.

At this time, Tian Hu also rushed out of the woods with his people, and landed on the lakeside one by one with different postures. The two sides looked at each other across the lake a hundred steps away.

This place was specially chosen by Gao Jianli - luckily he discovered this lake on his way here.

Tian Hu obviously won't let them go easily now. This is Chi Youtang's territory. It's not easy to escape from their pursuit.

If they just run away, the two of them will be caught up soon.

By then, it would be almost impossible for the two of them to escape from Tian Hu and so many of his masters, not to mention the thousands of peasant disciples.

Gao Jianli could only change his mind, find a favorable terrain, and defend the stronghold.

He and Big Iron Hammer were now surrounded by water, with no way out. The ordinary disciples of the farmer's family could not pose any threat to them - even if they used bows and crossbows to attack from a distance, Gao Jianli and the two could hide under the water.

Of course, this distance will definitely not stop Tian Hu and several other masters.

But fighting by the water, Gao Jianli received a huge bonus, while Tian Hu and others were more or less at a loss.

Under this situation, the gap in combat power between the two sides can basically be smoothed out.

Maybe it wasn't enough for Gao Jianli to defeat so many people from the farmer's family with one enemy, but at least he could protect himself, allowing Tian Hu to retreat in spite of the difficulties.

The only question is whether Gao Jianli can really withstand the combined efforts of so many masters from the farm.

This was indeed doubtful, but...he had no choice.

There was no way to escape, so there was only one fight. He could only try his best to strengthen himself and weaken the enemy. As for the result, he could only leave it to fate.

On the shore of the lake, Tian Hu narrowed his eyes and glanced at Gao Jianli and Big Iron Hammer. He also knew that fighting on the water was not good for him - just finding a way to get close to the opponent was a problem.

So there is no rush to advance.

The two sides were temporarily in a stalemate across the water.

Sledgehammer looked at Tian Hu and others who obviously had no intention of retreating, and said bitterly, "There is no way out, it seems we have to fight these bastards!"

Gao Jianli stopped trying to ease the relationship and said coldly towards the shore:

"For the sake of the cooperative relationship between the Mo family and the peasant family, we have repeatedly tolerated and compromised. We didn't expect Hall Master Tian Hu to set up such a death banquet!"

Tian Hu snorted coldly, not feeling ashamed at all, and responded calmly, "If I don't take action now, will I still let you go to the Zhu family to cause trouble for me?"

"You'd better think clearly first about whether it's wise to choose to be an enemy of the Mo family at this time!" Gao Jianli threatened.

According to normal people's thinking, even if they don't see eye to eye with Gao Jianli and the others, they generally won't offend them directly to death.

After all, people are only likely to stand against you. Once you offend them, it is equivalent to actively driving them to the opposite side.

When facing Shengqi, Tian Hu was still willing to be tactful...even though he failed.

In the blink of an eye, they were no longer polite to Gao Jianli and the others.

Of course, he may also feel that he has given Gao Jianli enough face and opportunities, and it is the other party's lack of understanding that makes the situation develop into what it is now.

Just like the chance he gave Shengqi... there was, but not much.
