Chapter 424
A complete show?
Seeing that Sanqi was speechless by Feng Xi and that he himself could not speak, Qi Xiao finally kindly pulled Feng Xi over and easily changed the subject for the two of them.
"Now that Ding Xiang is dead, you will definitely become Zhou Zhiyuan's confidant when you go back. I'm afraid he won't hide most of his actions from you. You will be completely freed from your status as a low-level mute guard."
Hearing Qi Xiao's words, Sanqi immediately nodded obediently.
Compared to facing the big devil Feng Xi, the young master in front of me is indeed more approachable.
Although the opponent killed Ding Xiang with one sword, he couldn't stand it with Feng Xi, a troublesome colleague standing by as a foil.
Seeing that Sanqi listened carefully to his words, Qi Xiao didn't mind talking to him more.
"But you are our expert after all. You cannot be too close to anything. It is best to do the same in the future as you have done in the past to avoid being caught. Therefore, we cannot give you this medicine to treat your throat for the time being, lest you Expose flaws."
Sanqi nodded again and tried his best to make some ahhh sounds to show that he didn't mind.
He has been mute for more than a day or two, so he must not be able to control his voice.
Once he regains the ability to speak prematurely, he is likely to arouse the suspicion of Zhou Zhiyuan and even the organization behind him.
But while expressing that he understood, he actually used clumsy gestures to make a speech. Feng Xi didn't understand it anyway, but Qi Xiao did.
"You mean you also want to help your brothers get medicine? If they behave well?"
Sanqi nodded, everyone was suffering, and he also wanted to have his own team.
In the past, he lived in a muddleheaded way, but now he has a heart that wants to move forward and live a better life.
"Okay, we have plenty of medicine. If you can try your best to use those mute guards for your own use, that will be your Sanqi's ability."
Returning the long sword in his hand to Sanqi, Qi Xiao quickly picked up the silver needles scattered on the ground by Lilac and suspended them in front of him.
"But before you go back and make great achievements, the matter of killing Lilac must be completed."
After Sanqi chased Dingxiang, the leading senior secret guard also responded quickly.
They cannot stay in the enemy's military camp forever, because the tenant farmers and soldiers dare not attack them for a short time, but this may not happen after a long time.
After all, they are considered military meritorious, right?
Therefore, the leading secret guard immediately ordered everyone to break out of the encirclement and began to run in the direction where Sanqi and Dingxiang left.
Ding Xiang's subordinates wanted to stop them, but they couldn't hold them back and just wanted to run away rather than fight, and they were still at a disadvantage in terms of numbers.
So the situation quickly became one group of people running in front, while the other group of people chased behind.
In the short term, Ding Xiang's men were afraid that the killers in front of them would catch up with Ding Xiang first, but in the long term, that direction was the territory of the Green Forest Army, and they had no chance of encountering reinforcements to fight back against these enemies.
In short, both sides have their own ideas, and no one wants to make it easier for the other.
"What should we do, second leader? Can we really find Sanqi and the female commander?"
A senior secret guard headed by secret guard Wen said:
"If you can't find it, you have to look for it. He saved my life. I owe him this wave!"
The leader had previously told Sanqi and others to die. Although he disagreed, he did not object, so he naturally felt guilty after being rescued.
Now he has to try his best no matter what he says, otherwise his conscience will be uneasy.
"That's right, our leaders are gone, wouldn't it be a coward to go back like this!"
The secret guards who could talk talked to each other, while the few who could not speak proved their attitude with their speed.
Today's events have made them recognize Sanqi, and also proved that their dumb guards are not the lowest and most useless existence.
What everyone in front of them didn't expect was that they met Sanqi before running very far.
The bright moon hung high in the sky, and the young mute guard was covered in blood, especially his complexion turned dark, obviously he had been poisoned.
"Sanqi!"
The two leaders of the secret guards immediately stepped forward, and the others followed closely.
Ding Xiang's subordinates at the rear also saw what was going on here. At that time, someone wanted to rush up and kill someone, but was grabbed by someone on the sidelines.
Because it is not important to surround and kill these people at the moment, the safety of their leader Ding Xiang is the top priority.
Moreover, both sides were equally powerful, but the other side had a larger number of people. It was hard to explain that they were surrounded and killed by others.
"Let's go find Commander Lilac!"
Although some people in the team were unwilling to let Sanqi and others go, they still obeyed the arrangements from above.
Sanqi, on the other hand, couldn't speak and never gestured. He just looked very weak and might die at any time until their enemy was far away.
"Sanqi, how are you? Can you still speak? Phew, can you still hear us?"
"Sanqi! Sanqi!" The ones who could talk were scratching their heads, and the ones who couldn't speak were gesturing blindly. Only the second leader still had some brains, so he quickly took out the medicine in his arms and gave Sanqi a pill. .
Secret guards and mute guards are inherently high-risk professions, and those who have the conditions will carry sufficient wound medicine and antidotes to some common poisons.
Sanqi, being the lowest mute guard, naturally doesn't have one. Qi Xiao and Feng Xi matched him, but now he has to suffer miserably and cannot be used at all.
Fortunately, the second commander's medicine also had some effect, making his face look a little better soon.
So he shook his head and reluctantly raised his finger to point to a location not far away, signaling his people to go and have a look.
"What are you doing standing still? Go quickly!"
Seeing someone stunned, the second leader urged them at that time.
"Don't worry, if you lose anything, they will find it soon. I'll take you away first."
At present, Ding Xiang's group of subordinates have not gone far, and there is another military camp over there. The location here is not unlucky for them, but very dangerous.
So the first thing they need to do now is to retreat and send only one or two people to explore the area around Sanqi Finger.
Sanqi would not object to the second leader's opinion. After all, he also wanted to leave here as soon as possible.
While the second commander and others were running wildly with Sanqi on their backs, Ding Xiang's subordinates over there also looked for traces and found Ding Xiang's body in front of a bush.
It's just that this body is not complete, because she only has a body but no head.
However, these subordinates were so familiar with Lilac that they recognized each other at a glance.
For a moment, all the subordinates' eyes were red with tears, and the leaders couldn't help but pounce on them and start wailing.
"Kill them! Kill that little mute! Let's go, we will avenge Commander Lilac!"
Some people shouted loudly, but some people were very calm. That is the person who can call the shots in this team now.
"Kill them? I'm afraid they have already escaped when we came. Do you think we can catch up if we go back now?"
"Otherwise? Are we just going to watch them go? Is this the end of the leader's death?"
Some people retorted angrily, but the leader became calmer and said:
"Don't worry, they can run away but the monks can't run away from the temple. When we report this matter to the commander-in-chief, even their master Zhou Zhiyuan will have to live with him!"
Watching Sanqi and others run out of the dangerous area, Feng Xi finally said lazily:
"Should we continue to follow? Can we let them develop freely for a while?"
As a crazy salty fish, she felt that she had been too tired these past few days.
He raised his hand and gently stroked the corners of the girl's eyes, wiping away the tears she shed due to sleepiness. Just as Qi Xiao was about to comfort her, he saw a sea turtle falling from the sky and falling straight towards them.
It was Hai Dongqing whom he had ordered to be raised, so he recognized it.
"What happened?"
Seeing Qi Xiao frowning after unfolding the note, Feng Xi also approached him curiously.
This news came from the capital, and its content was very simple, that is, someone seemed to have doubts about their house arrest, and recently they had tried every means to enter the Jisuke Mansion.
"It's really strange that Li Cifu has been ill for many days. I think they would rather kill a hundred by mistake than let one go."
At present, the letter says that several waves of exploration have been blocked by them, but the more they do it, the more certain people will not give up. But once Mu Tian, Qin Zhui, Sun Qingzhi and others take action, this matter will become even more serious. complex.
After all, these people have been following him and Feng Xi, and their participation means that the Princess Protector's Palace is involved. Those who are hiding in the dark will definitely be wary.
But Feng Xi didn't panic at all and said:
"What are you afraid of? Just let Qin chase them to Cifu's Mansion to guard them. When we catch them, can we send Li Cifu back?"
She is so good at making trouble!
Qi Xiao and Feng Xi rushed back to Qingquan as quickly as possible to discuss the matter with Li Cifu. Sanqi and others who returned to Fucheng on the other side were immediately welcomed by Zhou Zhiyuan's other men and received the best treatment. .
"Don't worry, this little brother has a good foundation. Although the poison he was poisoned was strong, he protected his heart in time and luckily took the right antidote. As long as he keeps healthy in the past few days, he will be fine."
While the doctor was selling Sanqi, he explained to Zhou Zhiyuan who was standing aside.
"That's good, that's good. I'm afraid that something will happen to little brother Sanqi. You know, I'll have to rely on him in the future!"
Zhou Zhiyuan nodded happily, and at the same time immediately ordered people to go to his treasury to get the medicine. He wanted good old medicine, but he was afraid that the Panax notoginseng could not be replenished.
Sanqi was so grateful for this that she even wanted to get out of bed and salute Zhou Zhiyuan, which made Zhou Zhiyuan very satisfied.
You must know that just now, he took a baggage from the hands of two secret guards who came back. Inside the baggage was none other than the head of his enemy Lilac.
If he didn't believe Sanqi killed Ding Xiang before and thought they just dampened Ding Xiang's spirit, then it was impossible for him not to believe it now that he had the head in hand.
Sanqi is his blessed general and his great hero!
"You should rest well. When you recover, you will be the leader of the secret guards under my command, and they will all have to listen to you!"
Facing Zhou Zhiyuan's promise, Sanqi kept shaking his head. Zhou Zhiyuan couldn't understand his gestures, but the second leader of the secret guard on the side did.
"Brother Sanqi, why should you be humble? You deserve this position. I won't feel at ease if you insist on giving it to me." (End of Chapter)
