Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1676 Battle for the Stone of Enlightenment (Betrayal)

Tian Mi was still hesitating, but Dianqing didn't intend to argue with her. He clenched his two swords and continued to attack.

When Tian Mi saw that the ceremony was about to go on a killing spree, she became anxious and gritted her teeth and made a choice:

"can!"

"I'll take you back to Kuei Hall to get the medicine!"

The usually charming and charming voice now only gave people the feeling of grinding teeth.

From this, it is not difficult to see that the so-called Kui Kui Hall Master, who is famous in the farm family and is good at dancing, sweet-talking and sword-wielding, is actually just that.

In the world of martial arts, if you have no strength, you have nothing. No matter how good your brain is, it will still be useless at critical moments.

In terms of brains, Tian Mi couldn't catch up with Han Fei even if she took advantage of it. Han Fei couldn't solve all the problems with his own brain. What could she, a woman with wider legs, do?
  The main thing is that there is someone behind her to support her, but now the person supporting her cannot appear in an instant.

Dianqing, who finally received a clear answer, was very straightforward. He immediately put away his swords to suppress the sky, nodded and said in a low voice:

"it is good."

"Are you alone, or are you taking these people with you?"

Tian Mi was stunned for a moment, and then she even took the initiative to allow herself to take someone with her?
  This is completely disrespectful of Kuei Hall!

Tian Mi felt that she should be angry, but... she really couldn't bring herself to be angry.

Because people really don’t care about being one of the six so-called farmhouses.

"I can do it alone, they... have other things to do." Tian Mi answered.

She couldn't take all the more than 2,000 disciples with her. Firstly, they might not be of any use, and secondly, it would be troublesome to mobilize so many people.

There is no need to take away part of it - it may not be useful to take away all of it, and there is even less hope for part of it, so it is better to save some trouble.

She just wanted to solve the big man's problem in front of her as soon as possible. It would be better if it could be simpler.

It just so happened that we could continue to deal with Guigu Zongheng by leaving people behind. Anyway, farm disciples like her could still run the Dize Formation without her.

Dianqing probably saw...or heard that Tian Mi was planning to embarrass Gai Nie and the others. He thought for a moment and turned to look at the two people guarding the prison car:
  "Mr. Guy, you go first."

Dianqing did not directly expose his relationship with Wei Zhuang, but chose to talk to Gai Nie - he didn't care about his identity being exposed, but he still covered it up.

Dianqing and Gai Nie had met several times, and they could be considered acquaintances - one of them was Ying Zheng's personal bodyguard, and the other was Fusu's personal bodyguard, so they must have been in contact.

When Tian Mi heard this, her eyebrows immediately raised - the two of them actually knew each other!

Is this person here for that girl, or is he here to rescue Gui Gu Zongheng?

Or is it both, that’s why it happened to appear at this time?
  Familiar with Gai Nie... is he from the Mo family?

No, he didn't pay attention to the two Mo family members in the prison car at all.

After Gai Nie defected to the empire, did he have contact with other forces besides the Mohist family?
  Never heard of it...

Isn’t the Sword Master famous for having no friends?
  A lot of thoughts ran through Tian Mi's mind, but she couldn't think of the possible origin of the ceremony.

As a sword master, Gai Nie's status was too special. Even the peasants didn't have much information, and Tian Mi was qualified to know even less.

Without information, there is no way to judge.

I have to say that the misdirection of the ceremony is indeed very effective.

"Thank you."

Upon hearing the invitation to the ceremony, Gai Nie nodded to him and then drove the carriage directly away from the surroundings of the farm disciples.

Wei Zhuang sat on the other side of the carriage, his eyes sweeping over the farmers, with a contemptuous sneer on his lips.

Tian Mi hesitated for a while, but finally did not give the order for the farm disciples to stop him.

The peasant disciples who didn't get the order happily gave way to Genie and the others.

Maybe it's not that happy, after all, they came here with great fanfare, but in the end they let them go for nothing... But it doesn't matter whether they are willing or not.

When Ganie and the others drove away, the eyes behind the gauze fell on Tian Mi again:
  "Let's go get the medicine."

Tian Mi had no idea of ​​anger at this time, took a puff of cigarette, and sighed helplessly.

………………

After walking away, Ganie and Nie quickly met Long Qie who was riding a war horse.

Just now, he had been leading people to guard the perimeter, ready to rush in and save people at any time.

Neither Gai Nie nor Wei Zhuang are reckless people. Knowing that this is a bait and a trap, they will make some preparations no matter how confident they are in their own strength.

In fact, after the two of them reunited with Long Qie, they figured out the farmer's method of dealing with them - in fact, they could guess it out of thin air. Apart from having more people, the farmer really had no advantage.

Before intercepting Tian Mi and others, Long Qie had roughly figured out the size of the disciples of Kuei Hall hidden around them.

Although more than 2,000 peasant disciples cannot pose a life threat to Genie Weizhuang, they will make it difficult for the rescue operation to succeed.

Long Qie had hundreds of people under his command, and even the most elite cavalry were not enough to compete with so many peasant disciples, so they arranged a clever bluffing plan.

As a result, the chaos of the ceremony suddenly made the situation chaotic, and Long Qie did not act rashly.

Then Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang escaped directly by relying on the intimidation of the ceremony, and the bluffing plan they prepared was completely useless.

"What just happened?" Long Jie asked impatiently as soon as they met.

Gai Nie glanced at Wei Zhuang and saw that he didn't express anything, so he replied:
  "There was an accident. Dianqing also came to Daze Mountain, and he still caused trouble for Tian Mi."

"Ceremony..." Long Qie suddenly remembered what Ji Bu had said to him before.

He had been busy preparing a plan to deal with the farmer, and he had not bothered to elaborate on the exchange with Ji Bu with Gai Nie.

"When I met General Ji Bu before, he told me about the ceremony, saying that he came to protect Mi Lian and Lian Xin, the two orphans of Lord Changping, on orders from Young Master Fusu."

"Her Highness Lianxin is now seriously ill, and only Tian Mi has the medicine to treat her... Yingbu is working for Kuei Hall because of this. This is why Dianqing is causing trouble for Tian Mi."

"Uh..." At this point, Long Qie glanced at Wei Zhuang from the corner of his eye and continued hesitantly, "I wonder if he has other purposes."

In fact, what he said was that he suspected Fusu had other motives.

"Don't worry about him." Wei Zhuang finally spoke at this time and insisted.

"Mr. Wei Zhuang knows the inside story?" Long Qie asked tentatively.

Wei Zhuang sneered, then shook his head and said confidently, "I don't know!"

"..."

"But Dianqing is Fusu's personal bodyguard and never performs other tasks..."

Long Qie couldn't help but ask, "In that case, wouldn't it be more problematic for Fusu to send out a ceremony?"

Wei Zhuang glanced at him, ignoring the other party's rude interruption for the time being, and continued to explain: "The reason why he doesn't perform other tasks is not because Fusu can't do without this personal guard, but because the ceremony is not willing, and Fusu doesn't want to do it." I don’t want to force him.”

"He doesn't like the power struggle within the empire, and he has no intention of fighting in the rivers and lakes. Since Fusu will send him here, it means that his mission does not involve these things."

"So...he is here to protect those two children."

"But... why now?" Long Qie couldn't help but raised the question again.

"Ha!" Wei Zhuang sneered and looked at Long Qie as if he were a fool, "Why not now?"

"Under normal circumstances, would those two Xiong Qi's orphans be in danger?"

"It's because the peasant family was in chaos and it would implicate them, so Fusu specially sent out his personal guards."

"What's more...don't forget that some people are taking advantage of Xiong Qi's relationship with the farmer. There's no guarantee that they won't take advantage of Xiong Qi's orphan as well."

After Wei Zhuang's detailed explanation, Long Qie finally let go of his doubts.

Wei Zhuang was very disdainful of this.

The biggest torture for him is watching idiots think meaninglessly, but many people have this problem.

You don’t have the brains to think about it!

However, Wei Zhuang could stand and talk without back pain.

Long Qie's operation does have the meaning of being a fool who thinks a lot, but a fool who thinks a lot will always get something. The more difficult a person's brain is, the more he has to think, but he needs to be cautious in his actions.

"Let's go, take the people back first." Gai Nie interjected.

Only then did Long Qie remember to pay attention to the imprisoned Gao Jianli and Big Iron Hammer, and asked with some worry, "Are Commander Gao and the others okay?"

"It's okay, I was just knocked out temporarily. I'll wake up soon."

"Yeah." Long Qie nodded, "Then let's go."

Under the escort of Tenglong Legion soldiers, the group of people drove away quickly in a prison van.

………………

Daze Mountain, Four Seasons Town, outside the hut where the Zhu family hides.

Looking at Qu Shang lying dead on the ground, Tian Hu laughed wildly:
  "Hahaha... Finally, this annoying guy is finally dead!"

"Without this annoying guy blocking the road, I'll see who the Zhu family can rely on this time!"

Ah Ci, who had killed Qu Shang, shook off the blood on his body and put the sword back behind his back. He didn't have much emotion about it. He just let out a long breath and felt a little happy in his heart - he finally completed his sister's mission.

At this time, his eyes lit up, he showed a big smile, and he jumped towards Tian Hu:
  "elder sister!"

Tian Yan, who was wearing a cloak and plain clothes, had arrived at some point and was walking in through the farm disciples who were surrounding him.

She also saw Qu Shang lying in a pool of blood and losing his breath, with a look of lament on his face. After standing still, he said to Tian Hu in a sighing tone:

"It seems the biggest trouble has been solved."

It sounds like she couldn't bear the fact that the farm family was fighting among themselves to such an extent.

Tian Hu didn't care at all, he laughed and responded, "Yeah... By the way, Ayan, where did you find this kid?"

Tian Yan touched A Ci's head, who was close to him, and responded gently, "It's fate. I met him by chance. This kid listens to me very much."

Although this answer was the same as no answer, and there were questions at first glance, Tian Hu, who was in high spirits, didn't pay much attention to it.

Seeing that he is about to win the position of the hero, this small problem is no longer important. Anyway, his eldest niece also needs a master to protect her.

Although this guy is very strong, his brain is not very good, so he is very suitable.

Tian Hu cast his eyes towards the wooden house and said in a ferocious tone, "Next, there is this old guy from the Zhu family... I wonder how he feels now after being betrayed?"

"Thanks to you, Ayan, for convincing that gambler Situ Wanli."

Tian Yan did not reply, but also looked at the wooden house.

At this time, in the wooden house, Situ Wanli, who had turned traitor, took out the Twin Wheels of Destiny without hesitation and attacked the Zhu family.

He looked miserable, but in fact it was just some flesh wounds. Mr. Jin acted a scene with him.

The Zhu family, who was not good at fighting head-on, was sneak-attacked by Situ Wanli, and was at a disadvantage as soon as they faced the opponent's offensive.

After only three or two moves, although the others were not injured, the Stone of Enlightenment carried on their backs was knocked off by Situ Wanli.

He wanted to keep the Stone of Enlightenment and tried to snatch it away at all costs. However, he was slapped by Situ Wanli and the item was taken away by the other party without being able to keep it.

"Cough...cough...puff...cough..." The Zhu family covered their chests and kept coughing, mixed with the sound of vomiting blood. It was obvious that they had been severely injured.

Situ Wanli looked at the Zhu family who had almost lost the ability to resist, showed a cunning and sinister smile, and said proudly:
  "Qu Shang usually doesn't drink at all, but today a sip of brother's wine killed him. Isn't it ironic?"

"Ho...ho..." The Zhu family held back their coughs, panted heavily, and couldn't help but asked angrily, "Why! Why did you betray us!?"

"Betrayal?" Situ Wanli smiled, as if he thought the Zhu family's question was ridiculous, "Master Zhu, have you forgotten my identity?"

"I'm a gambler!"

"At any time, I have to stay rational and make the choice with the greatest chance of winning...I don't like idiots who lose their minds and take risks regardless of the consequences."

When he said this, he glanced at Liu Ji, who was pinned and unable to move.

On the contrary, Liu Jicai is what ordinary people think of as a gambler - he likes taking risks and betting big.

Situ Wanli only wanted not to lose, which was one of the main reasons why he was able to get to where he is today step by step.

When the Zhu family heard this, they shouted angrily, "This is not a gambling game, but a matter of vital importance to the survival of the farm family!"

He was really annoyed by the reason for Situ Wanli's betrayal - do you think this is a peaceful time, and you will help whoever can win?

The farm family is currently in an unstable situation internally and surrounded by external enemies. It is extremely dangerous. Can anyone be a hero?
  You are just staring at this game in front of you, but have you ever considered that there will be a bigger and more dangerous game next? Will you be able to win and help whom?
  Of course, for the Zhu family, what made him most angry was not these more macro-level issues, but Qu Shang's death.

Situ Wanli had no regrets, nor did he feel that his choice was wrong. He replied enthusiastically and excitedly:
  "No! This is a bet!"

"And it's the biggest gamble I've ever seen in my life!"

Seeing this, the Zhu family became even angrier and trembled all over, "So, for your gambling, I can ruin Qu Shang's life!"

"Hmph..." Situ Wanli sighed in disappointment, "Hall Master Zhu, why don't you understand? If you could make the wisest choice like me and hand over the Stone of Fire, Qu Shang wouldn't have to die. .”

"What really killed Qu Shang was your own greed!"

"You...ahem!"

"Cough cough cough cough!!"

Situ Wanli's knock made the Zhu family even more furious. Unable to suppress the injury, he started coughing violently again.
