Chapter 20 Heart Diggers
Unfortunately, Gu Renwu is not here. Yan Ze thought to himself that there is no one else now, and it is a good time to reminisce about the past.
He smiled and said to Yin Qi, "Miss Yin is okay? Do you need us to call someone?"
Yin Qi said, "No, my companion is very close to here," she stood up and looked up at her benefactors, "Please leave your names, I'll thank you later."
Yan Ze is fine, but Xiao Heng must not take the risk of exposing his identity, not to mention that he had fought with Yin Tingxiu.
Yan Ze had no choice but to refuse, "Miss Yin is just a matter of hard work, no need to thank him."
After saying that, he pulled Xiao Heng and bowed to Yin Qi, then flew over to the wall and left first.
Yin Qi was not surprised to see the two of them leaving in a hurry. In fact, after their emotions calmed down, she had already recognized the boy as the one who fought with Yin Tingxiu in Baihe Inn.
The two of them might have recognized her. Maybe they didn't want to cause trouble anymore, so they hurriedly left without leaving their names.
Yin Qi didn't dare to stay in the alley for more time. She walked to the street and was eager to get along with her team. She had just been wasted a lot of time, hoping not to drag her companions back.
Yin Qi was walking, and suddenly heard a boiling sound in the southeast direction, and she could still vaguely see Meng Dachun floating in the air.
Is this a fight with another team?
Yin Qi rushed over there. After learning this lesson, she only chose to walk on the serious streets, so she spent a lot of time.
When she caught up, she saw more than forty spiritual disciples and warriors fighting with their respective "gods" as the center, and various things flew around the sky on the streets.
Afraid of being affected, most of the people closed their doors and windows and hid inside. But if some houses were hit by something that was knocked away, there were some people, which made the people inside scream.
Song Chen was the first to discover Yin Qi. He pulled him out of the battlefield and pulled Yin Qi into a safer corner.
"Where did the girl go? Why is there no news for so long?"
Yin Qi knew that it was not the time to say that she was attacked, so she did not answer, but asked: "Who is the opponent? Why did she fight like this?"
Song Chen smiled bitterly, "I was not lucky and met Lu Daoyi. He is a strong enemy and is very popular. Like the third young master, he also took over the 'gods' from other teams, and the number of people is comparable to ours."
Yin Qi looked over there and saw a young man standing opposite Yin Tingxiu. He condensed the water in the well beside him into an ice blade, and then shot towards Yin Tingxiu.
Although the ice blade was fast, it stopped one meter before Yin Ting cultivated himself and then shattered to the ground.
This is the first time Yin Qi has seen this kind of magic. Song Chen explained from the side: "That is the water control technique, which can make water into ice, which is Lu Daoyi's strength."
Everyone else knew how powerful these two people were. They were afraid of being accidentally injured by powerful magic, so they were separated from them. Yin Tingxiu also understood that the people in front of him were difficult to deal with, so he gave up his fist and foot skills and focused his energy on the application of magic.
Lu Daoyi was still weaker and was eventually knocked unconscious by Yin Tingxiu with a pottery jar. Their team was in chaos, and Bai Yin took the opportunity to capture the opponent's "god" and took his wooden sign.
Their team won this battle and doubled their strength. Yin Qi was not optimistic because it was considered a victory when he arrived at the county magistrate's mansion first. Yin Tingxiu seemed a little addicted to fighting and wasted too much time in this regard. If she was asked to lead the team, she would definitely avoid fierce battles and focus on saving time.
Sure enough, although they arrived at the front of the county magistrate's office with a huge momentum, they were not the final winner and could only rank third.
The winner was Yin Tingyun's team. The number of people in their team has not changed, and everyone, including the warrior, is clean and has never participated in the battle.
The second place is Su Yan, who is also an elite in the Tianzi Class. Their team also captured a "god".
When the last one arrived, Yin Zhengyuan asked everyone to stand up, announced the final winner, and handed Yin Tingyun a small white jade medicine bottle, which contained fifty pills made of white dragon claws.
Yin Qi has seen it in the book that the White Dragon Claw is the best supplement for a magician, but it is not common, and it is also very troublesome to make medicine. Yin Zhengyuan gave him fifty pills, which is really a big deal.
In addition to Yin Tingyun's reward, each of his samurai can receive 60 taels of silver, while each of the spiritual disciples can receive 100 taels of silver.
Yin Qi was very curious. Neither spiritual disciples nor warriors could leave the house easily. How should they spend the money?
Unable to win, Yin Qi thought that Yin Tingxiu would be very disappointed. However, the result was beyond her expectations. Yin Tingxiu only regretted a little when he first arrived at the county magistrate's office, and then gathered with his familiar spiritual disciples to exchange experiences, including Yin Tingyun.
Yin Tingyue was caught off guard by Yin Tingxiu and was already waiting alone to sulk at the county magistrate's mansion. When Yin Tingxiu saw him, he hurried over to apologize to him, and the two of them quickly made up.
Yin Qi, Meng Ping and Song Chen stayed together, talking while thinking hard in his heart how to explain the attack to Yin Tingxiu.
When the Gods Sacrifice ended, the sun was already westward. Everyone returned to their homes one after another. When they were about to reach Jinhua Hall, only Yin Qi and Yin Tingxiu were left on the way.
Yin Tingxiu fought very happily today. Although he didn't win, he was still in a good mood. But when he heard Yin Qi say that she was attacked in the alley, his face suddenly changed, and he was so angry that he wanted to jump, "Why just say such a big thing now? Should you say you are stupid or you are so heartless?"
Without saying anything, Yin Qi was immediately taken to the Shenhu Hall by Yin Tingxiu and looked for their father.
Yin Zhengchuan was wiping his sword in the yard. After hearing Yin Tingxiu talk about this, his face became solemn. He asked Yin Qi: "Are you sure he has a jar and a dagger?"
Seeing Yin Qi nodding affirmatively, Yin Zhengchuan said, "It's the 'heart-drawing man'."
Yin Qi and Yin Tingxiu were both confused, and only heard from his father's explanation: "'Heart-digging Man' is a group of evil people who specialize in attacking spiritual disciples and digging out their hearts. These people firmly believe that eating your heart can bring immortality."
Yin Qi subconsciously covered her chest, and the hair on her body stood up.
"However, the 'heart-drawing man' has almost disappeared in Zhaohua City over the years, and he didn't expect it to appear again," Yin Zhengchuan said seriously, "Don't leave the mansion in the next few days. I will send people to investigate the city."
Yin Tingxiu suddenly asked, "What are the two people who saved you? Maybe they know what they are?"
Yin Qi shook her head, "Their appearance is very ordinary and there is nothing special about it. It just happened to save me, and I should be an ordinary knight."
In fact, Yin Qi knew that the two people were at Baihe Inn, but she felt that they didn't seem to have any involvement with the Yin family, and Yin Qi didn't want to cause trouble for her benefactors.
Yin Tingxiu and Yin Qi returned to Jinhua Hall. After hearing about this, Tao Ying also said: "When encountering such a thing, you should call someone immediately. Why do you still have the intention to continue to attend the God-Sending Party?"
Yin Qi also felt that she was a little ridiculous. Perhaps it was because she had spent too much effort on sending the gods recently, and she had accidentally regarded it as a top priority.
Yin Tingxiu echoed: "That's it! Otherwise, he would have caught that evil man long ago!"
Tao Ying suddenly criticized her son again, "Why do you blame Qi'er? She isn't she thinking about your success or failure so that she is like this?"
This sentence overestimates Yin Qi. Rather than caring about Yin Tingxiu's win or loss, Yin Qi cares more about her position in Yin Tingxiu's eyes. Yin Qi actually doesn't want Yin Tingxiu to look down on her and thinks she is a weak person.
Yin Tingxiu was obviously touched by his mother's words, and his eyes looked at Yin Qi were a little different. He promised: "Don't worry, sister Qi, when I catch that 'heart-drawing man', I will definitely vent my anger for you."
Yan Ze didn't know that Yin Qi had concealed their whereabouts. He took Xiao Heng back to Baihe Inn, preparing to leave the city immediately after Gu Renwu came back.
Xiao Heng was still a little unbelievable, "You said Yin Qi is General Gu's niece? How could it be so coincidental?" He had always been unwilling to the women around him, and he couldn't remember what she looked like when he first met Yin Qi.
Yan Ze's head was as big as a fight and said with a wry smile: "There is such a destiny, no coincidence. You have no impression of such a beautiful girl at all. This is strange!"
Xiao Heng turned his face and ignored his mockery. Yan Ze smiled even worse, "The hexagram master named Shen was really accurate. The peach blossom disaster has come true. Should the young master go and apologize to others?"
Xiao Heng touched his slapped face and thought to himself: This is his peach blossom disaster? I feel a little regretful when I think of his bad attitude towards Shen Tian that day.
As the two were talking, Gu Renwu finally returned to the inn. After entering the room, they saw him looking in a dismay, and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
Gu Renwu replied in pain: "My second sister died three months ago and was buried in a forest in the south of the city. I just found her cemetery."
Yan Ze patted Gu Renwu on the shoulder to show comfort, and then told him about their chance encounter with Yin Qi.
Gu Renwu learned that his niece was actually a spiritual disciple and even attended the God-Sending Party. He regretted not staying in the inn, otherwise he would have met her.
It was rare that Gu Renwu did not blame him for his daring to run around the city with his little prince. Yan Ze was very grateful and then urged the two of them to pack up their things and leave the city.
Gu Renwu has his responsibilities, so everything is put first on the safety of the young master. He decided that he would definitely come to Zhaohua City again in the future and find an opportunity to recognize Yin Qi.
Yan Ze has been walking around the world all year round, so he came downstairs before the two of them. All the people in the hall have dispersed, only Shen Tian is sitting in the same place, fiddling with something in his hand.
Thinking that Shen Tian calculated the two hexagrams for Xiao Heng and Gu Renwu very accurately, Yan Ze walked over and said, "Mr. Shen, how many hexagrams are left today?"
Shen Tian put away the things in his hand and raised his head and replied, "There is another hexagram!"
"Then let me Bu Yi Bu!"
As the work was about to end, Shen Tian was very happy and asked, "What do Brother Yan want?"
Yan Ze was in a hurry and said, "What is simple is what you mean."
Shen Tian reached out and asked Yan Ze to sit opposite him, "Then let's face him!"
Shen Tian held his chin and looked at Yan Ze for a moment, and said, "Brother Yan is a romantic wandering son. He is destined to wander and have no place to live."
Yan Ze was not surprised. He had planned to spend his whole life like this, so he smiled and said, "It's just my wish, I like the world to be my home."
Unexpectedly, Chen Tian shook his head and said, "It's not that simple. In the future, you will encounter an accident and take on an important task from now on, work hard for it and run around."
Yan Ze's heart trembled, and was frightened by Chen Tian's words. What he feared the most was what responsibility he would take.
Before he could ask in detail, Xiao Heng and Gu Renwu had already come down from the building and asked Yan Ze to come over.
