Chapter 273: Knife Practice(1/2)
(I was blocked yesterday that chapter. The God of Cars won’t bless me. It will take two days to lift the ban. I will still hold the thigh of the Great Crab God in the future.)
It was already late at night when Li Yi returned to Pingji County. He quietly found Miaoyu Pavilion and was caught by Qiaoqiao who was alert.
"Li Yi, you are still alive!" Qiaoqiao was shocked at first, and then she felt ecstatic. This expression was extremely rare on her face with a paralyzed face.
She searched and rescued Li Yi in the past few days but failed and decided to give up. She planned to write a letter to Feng Nier to apologize.
After not seeing each other for a few days, Li Yi felt that Qiaoqiao had become much thinner and the edges on her delicate face became much clearer.
Li Yi lowered his voice, followed her to the secret room, and asked straight to the point: "Qiaoqiao, tell me the truth, what's wrong with A Ci?"
Qiaoqiao's eyes were filled with a gloomy feeling. After a long time of silence, she looked at Li Yi's hopeful eyes and said stiffly: "When the coroner sister ran away that night, she was shot in her leg. I will cover you and run up the mountain, and Zheng Bing will pick her up.
But there are too many people chasing her, and Zheng Bingli is not caught. In order not to get involved, the coroner sister chose to jump into the river and escape."
Hearing this, Li Yi shook his body and it turned out that what Xiao Qiaoer said was true!
A Ci really didn't come back...
Li Yi gritted his teeth and asked, "Then, can you find her now?"
"No..." Qiaoqiao comforted Li Yi rarely, "But don't worry, the coroner sister Jiren has a heavenly appearance. Zheng Bing is still looking for her now. Maybe she will go ashore in the morning and recover from her injuries somewhere."
Li Yi turned a deaf ear to him, and he sat in the same place in despair, his body stiff, like a sculpture.
After a long time, he shook his head and murmured: "People should have fantasies. No news may be good news."
This was the first time Qiaoqiao saw Li Yi’s eyes lose their luster. She wanted to continue to persuade her, but she didn’t know what to say.
She bit her lip and said slowly: "Li Congxiang is on the way back to Jinling now. I can send a message to the lady and ask her to send troops to ambush Li Congxiang, and she will definitely be able to retake the fish talisman."
Li Yi ignored her, murmured for a while and suddenly raised his head: "Do you think with my current strength, how likely will you win if you go to Lin Mansion and kill Wang Yan?"
"Are you crazy?!" Qiaoqiao widened her eyes. She thought Li Yi had realized the reality, but she didn't expect that he was so confused that he could even say such words!
"Stop thinking about it! It's not advisable to have a hot head when you assassinate Wang Yong. You should make a long-term plan. Why did you, a smart person, become so ridiculous when you open your mouth?" Qiaoqiao kept pouring cold water on Li Yi's head.
"Not to mention Wang Xuan, there are many salt genitals in the Lin Mansion, and at least forty or fifty. Can you break in?" Qiaoqiao said calmly, "Miss left me with most of the subordinates in Pingji County as eyeliners and has no combat ability. Even if I am willing to help you, I will be far from being the opponents of those salt genitals."
Li Yi clenched his fists and his eyes were scarlet: "The mob is not worth mentioning. I just ask you, if I fight with Wang Xuan, is there any possibility of killing him?"
Qiaoqiao was silent for a moment, and sighed: "With your current strength, I'm afraid you are not a match for Wang Yong. Your martial arts are indeed progressing very quickly, but you are just a second-rate expert after all.
If you want to win simply by force, you must become a first-class expert like Wang Xuan. Now you will rashly kill Wang Xuan, and you will definitely die."
Although Qiaoqiao is only a second-rate expert, she has a high vision and can easily see the gap between Li Yi and Wang Yong.
"Are you a first-class expert? I understand." Li Yi thought for a long time and suddenly got up and walked out.
"Where are you going?" Qiaoqiao exclaimed, "Your mother is still in Miaoyu Pavilion. She has been very worried these days. Don't you go and see her?"
Qiaoqiao seemed to realize Li Yi’s idea and quickly used Li’s mother to persuade him.
"No, I feel relieved when my mother is here." Li Yi paused and said, "Take good care of my mother, I have recorded this kindness and told her not to worry about me, I just do what I should do."
Qiaoqiao looked at Li Yi's back as he left quickly, and reached out to grab it, but couldn't catch anything.
"It's over, Li Yi is crazy. He really wants to kill Wang Xian..." Qiaoqiao was frightened. She quickly got up and wrote a letter to be sent away by the pigeon.
"Miss, Li Yi is confused. I don't know how to persuade her. If it were you, what would be the solution?"
Qiaoqiao looked at the dark night sky and felt uneasy.
...
It was already dark, and Xiao Qiaoer was sleeping in a drowsy state and found that there was one more person in front of the bed.
"Why are you back?" Xiao Qiaoer rubbed her eyes and looked at Li Yi in confusion, feeling a little puzzled.
I went there resolutely just now, but after I came back so quickly, could it be that Gan Ci was really not dead?
Xiao Qiaoer couldn't figure it out for a moment.
Li Yi looked at her steadily: "You are a top-notch master, are you?"
"That's right." Xiao Qiaoer suddenly woke up and looked at Li Yi playfully, "Do you want me to help you kill Wang Xuan? No problem, but you need to wait until Mr. Mo comes back."
"I can't wait that long!" Li Yi said firmly.
Xiao Qiaoer smashed her lips and looked at Li Yi with interest: "It's risky if you and Lan Yin go. However, if you are willing to pay some price, I agree."
She tried to hold Li Yi's hand and play with Li Yi's fingers.
Li Yi pinched her warm hand and said coldly: "Tell me how to sword!"
"Hmm?" Xiao Qiaoer was stunned, realizing Li Yi's meaning, and her eyes opened slightly in surprise, "You want to kill Wang Xian yourself?"
"I want to kill him with my own hands." Li Yi's expression was firm and his tone was unexpectedly calm.
Xiao Qiaoer gently broke free from Li Yi's hand, no longer showing a playful look on her face. She smiled slightly and nodded and said, "Okay! I'll teach you!"
She just likes Li Yi's aspiring and revengeful nature!
The annoying thing is about to be slashed!
Xiao Qiaoer laughed and said, "I'm not teaching you in vain. I'll sleep with me tonight."
Li Yi said: "Let me teach you now."
"Sleep first, I'm sleepy."
"Teach me!"
Xiao Qiaoer yawned and sighed: "Okay, I really owe you."
She put on her clothes and lay behind Li Yi's back, moving her face slowly against his back, and she felt a little angry.
Li Yi thought she was walking too slowly and carried her on her shoulders.
Xiao Qiaoer let out a low voice and woke up for two minutes. She hugged Li Yi's neck tightly and giggled.
"Your arms are quite strong." Xiao Qiaoer pinched Li Yi's shoulders, and when she thought of something, she laughed again.
Walking into the empty valley, Li Yi put Xiao Qiaoer down and looked at her deeply.
What Li Yi asked Xiao Qiaoer to teach is actually the word "standard". He does not need a new knife score. "Five Knifes of Mountains and Seas" is enough for him to use, but there are many details in the places where the chopping knife and machete are not doing well.
He was too slow to find the sword technique. If he could point him to these things with a sword master, his sword technique could be improved quickly.
While yawning, Xiao Qiaoer pointed at Li Yi, who was slashing the long sword under the moon. Although he complained twice, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
...
In the territory of Northern Han...
Yun Zhaozhao followed Zhao Jun into a village. She looked at the surrounding villagers, and a look of astonishment flashed across her face.
It is because these villagers are disabled, and all of them are disabled.
Since parting with Li Yi, Yun Zhaozhao has followed Zhao Jun all the way north, and she has actually successfully chased him.
She originally wanted to avenge her and stab Zhao Jun to death with one shot, but Zhao Jun only said one sentence, which made her lose her fighting spirit.
"Don't you want to know why Li Yi let me go? You'll understand when you go to the same place with me."
This is something that Yun Zhaozhao cannot understand. She was thinking about these things along the way. She wanted to know what Li Yi was thinking.
So after Zhao Jun said this, Yun Zhaozhao didn't think much about it and followed him to this village.
The more she walked into the village, the more she was more shocked she saw. There were many people here with broken arms and legs, and only some healthy children were children. Although these children had pale faces, their faces were full of smiles.
"Mr. Zhao! You are here!" An old man with broken arms came towards him. When he saw Zhao Jun coming, he immediately smiled, "You haven't been back for a long time."
"It's hard to get out of business." Zhao Jun shook his head and sighed, "How are the big guys doing recently?"
The old man Broken Arm said, "Although I can't eat enough here, it's good if there is no war. Lord Zhao often sends people to help him, and he can't starve to death."
Yun Zhaozhao finally understood after listening to their conversation.
The people in this village are not the indigenous people here. They are all veterans who went to the battlefield and were placed here by Zhao Jun because of their injuries and disabilities.
These days, disabled soldiers are not taken care of at all, and the pensions issued by the state are all exploited by the upper class. They are only a dozen or hundreds of dollars in their hands, and they cannot support their second half of their lives.
If they could farm, they would not starve to death, but how frequent the wars were going to be like this these days? The food they planted was not enough to harvest, and they became a sea of fire.
Even if you have time to harvest, you will inevitably encounter the robbery of food. Survival has long become a problem that these injured veterans hope.
Their hometown would have been no longer able to live in. If Zhao Jun had not placed them here and helped them all the time, they would have become broken limbs on the road.
The old man with broken arms sighed: "Fortunately, Lord Zhao is here. If Lord Zhao doesn't care about us one day, I'm afraid that our old bones will die."
Yun Zhaozhao felt very heavy when he heard this.
Following Zhao Jun through the end of the village, Yun Zhaozhao met many people who came up to say hello enthusiastically.
Because Zhao Jun was beside him, Yun Zhaozhao was also treated eagerly, and his hands were filled with a basket of eggs.
Looking at the pale and thin villagers, she wanted to retreat in panic, but the villagers threw a lot of faces.
She and Zhao Jun walked to a secluded place, put down the vegetable basket lonely, gritted their teeth and said, "Do you think that if you do good things, you can pass the bad things you do?"
Zhao Jun sighed deeply: "I know that there is no way to save the wrong thing. I can understand that you want to kill me."
"Since you are willing to admit your guilt, what else can you say?" Yun Zhaozhao pulled out his gun and wanted to stab him. He looked at the vegetable basket on the ground, but he was unable to take action.
