Chapter 921: Rescuing Luo Qingyi
After dinner, go live.
"Huh~~"
As soon as I went online, a bell rang in my ears, and suddenly a task came-
"Ding!"
System Prompt: The NPC you are guarding [Luo Qingyi] is about to be in danger, do you immediately accept the trigger quest [Rescue Luo Qingyi] (SSS level β β β )?
β¦β¦
Lo Qingyi is in danger!?
My heart fluttered, and I immediately confirmed that I accepted the task, and the next moment, the task had appeared in the task bar, but it was blank after clicking on it, and even Luo Qingyi was not shown anywhere, maybe it was still in the palace, so I immediately teleported and went to Starstrag City.
The wind-breaking thunder turned into a bolt of thunder and swept through the Imperial Garden, and just as I arrived at Luo Qingyi's residence, a dragon cavalry said respectfully: "My lord, you are finally here!" β
"Something happened to the county lord?" I asked through gritted teeth.
"No......"
He shook his head, confused, and said: "The Qingyi County Lord is fine, but Lord Chi Hong, the commander of the patrol army from White Deer City, has an accident, it is said that he was assassinated on the way to Qingshan Town, that is the general under the command of Xingchu Gong, no one thought that such a famous general would suddenly fall." β
"What about the county lord?"
"The county lord led the cavalry to the place where Lord Yu Chihong was assassinated, and she wanted to find out who assassinated Lord Yu Chihong."
"Understood, I'll go find her."
"Be careful, my lord, and beware of those who hide in the shadows."
"Yes!"
β¦β¦
As soon as he pulled the reins, he rushed out of the imperial city with the thunder of the wind, and opened the big map, which showed that Qingshan Town was in the super large map ruled by Xingqi City, about 20 minutes away from Xingqi City, in a barren area between Xingqi City and Julu City.
The speed of the wind-breaking thunder is extremely fast, every two minutes is a wind-breaking effect, breaking through as much as 500 yards, nearly twenty minutes later, it has approached the legendary Qingshan Town, but the time is close to night, it is about to fog, the vision has become extremely poor, just as I galloped, there was a sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and an iron horse galloped head-on: "What person?" β
"People of the Dragon Domain."
I stepped forward and took a look, he was wearing the badge of the Golden Cavalry Regiment and was an NPC of Julu City, so I asked, "I am Ding Muchen, where is the county lord of light clothes?" β
"It turned out to be you, my lord......" He stepped forward and said, "The county lord is looking for clues at the place where Lord Yu Chihong was assassinated, if your lord is looking for the county lord, his subordinates can lead the way for you." β
"It's hard work!"
"Let's go!"
He turned and rode away, and galloped along a path that was almost invisible outside the town, the ground was wet and overgrown with weeds, covering half of the path, and after about three minutes of galloping, there were shadowy figures at the foot of the mountain in front of him, and some people had already raised torches, it was the people of the Longxiang Cavalry Regiment, and Luo Qingyi was wearing a battle robe, standing under an ancient tree.
"County Lord!"
I galloped over, directly mounted the imprint, the Dark Dragon Boots stepped on the wet grass, and frowned, "You are really here, I am still worried that something has happened to you!" β
"I'm fine."
Luo Qingyi looked at me with a pair of beautiful eyes and said, "But...... Lord Yu Chihong and more than a hundred knights of White Deer City have already ......"
"Lord of the county, please mourn ......"
I stepped forward and walked to the jungle under the leadership of Luo Qingyi, only to see that the corpses of the patrol knights were everywhere in the jungle, and the deaths were extremely tragic, some of them had their heads cut off with sharp weapons, and some were pierced through the heart by sharp blades, and there were stumps everywhere, and even the blood stains had not dried up, and under the arch of the crowd, a general wearing a general's robe fell under the tree, already dead.
This is Yu Chihong?
I took a closer look, this is a general who looks very steady and composed, his face lines are like knife carvings, revealing perseverance, but his eyes are closed, blood is flowing in his mouth, and the three gold stars on his neckline are completely soaked, his right hand was cut off by Qi Qi, and his left hand is holding a war knife, and he did not give up the fight before he died, and the real fatal wound was in the chest, a cone-shaped wound caused a fist-sized wound, which directly pierced Yu Chihong's heart.
Luo Qingyi clenched his fists, his voice trembled slightly, and said: "Lord Yu Chi also taught me martial arts, I didn't expect him to die tragically here, this damn murderer...... I'm going to tear him to pieces! β
I frowned and said, "It seems that there is no way to determine who the murderer is now, county lord, I am very unclear, since Lord Yu Chihong is from White Deer City, how can he appear on the territory border of Julu City and Xingqi City, this place is not related to White Deer City, what task is he performing?" β
Luo Qingyi's delicate body trembled slightly, and a pair of beautiful eyes looked at me in surprise, and said: "The area around Qingshan Town is rich in spirit stones, one of the cultivation consumables, and more than half of the spirit stones of the empire are produced here, so half of the spiritual power absorbed by the younger generation of cultivators of the Xia clan over the years has come from here, this morning, His Majesty ordered Lord Yu Chihong to inspect the spirit stone factory in Qingshan Town, so ......"
"That's ...... so"
I took a deep breath and looked around again, only to find that Yu Chihong was pushed all the way under the tree, and finally killed with one blow, leaving two kinds of footprints on the ground, one that matched Yu Chihong's combat boots, and the other was a footprint divided into three parts, the footprints were deep, nearly half deeper than Yu Chihong's footprints.
"Is it ......?"
Luo Qingyi pursed his red lips, and also discovered my discovery, following the footprints, but found that the owner of this footprint went straight in the direction of Qingshan Town after the assassination of Yu Chi Hong succeeded, and suddenly Luo Qingyi's beautiful eyes revealed a trace of murderous intent: "This person is in Qingshan Town?" β
"Not necessarily alone."
I shook my head and said, "If you can wipe out an entire cavalry squad, if it's one person, then this person's strength is too terrifying, I'm afraid it's not under you, right?" β
"In any case, we must check it out in Qingshan Town today!"
"Hmm."
β¦β¦
Night falls.
There were dim lights in the town, and when we came to Qingshan Town, the laughter of travelers and drunks came from the tavern in the distance, and the sound of "clanging" came from the spirit stone workshop in the distance, and a waiter pointed to a building called "Red Dragon Tavern" in the distance, and said, "County Lord, we have already chartered all the rooms on the second and third floors of this hotel, and the county lord will rest here today, right?" β
"Okay."
Luo Qingyi nodded lightly and said to me, "Ding Muchen, live here today." β
"Okay."
After tying the war horses to the back of the tavern, a group of dragon cavalry camped in the open space of the town, burying pots and cooking, only a small number of elites followed Luo Qingyi, after all, there are many people, and nothing can be found in this kind of place if it is too loud.
After settling down, Luo Qingyi took me to the first floor of the tavern, only to see a jubilant scene, many travelers and mercenaries who entered the deep mountains to collect spirit stones drank and ate here, and even some rough mercenaries put their arms around the waist of the maid, holding her on her lap and her hands.
Just sitting down at a table by the window, Luo Qingyi said indifferently: "Man, two glasses of ale, two coarse breads." β
"Yes, right away!"
Soon after, I ate and drank, and I took a look at my hunger value, which was only 79%, and I didn't need to eat anything for the time being, but since Luo Qingyi was a treat, I ate some, and tore the bread little by little and sent it to my mouth, as for the ale wine, the feeling of drinking it was not much different from beer, but the taste was a little heavier.
After waiting for a while, there was a sudden sound of pushing the door, and then a person with a hat walked in, threw the money bag on his waist directly on the table, and suddenly fell out of a few shiny gold coins, which shocked a group of mercenaries with straight eyes, this person took off the hat, revealing a plain face, the corners of his mouth hooked, and said: "Call the boss." β
"Good...... Good ......"
The man's eyes also straightened, and he immediately called the boss.
"What does this guest need?" The boss had a flattering face.
"Call all the women in your Fire Dragon Tavern, Uncle wants them all tonight!"
ββ¦β¦β
The boss was stunned.
The man immediately threw the gold coin out and landed directly in the boss's arms, saying, "Isn't it enough?" β
"Enough ......"
The boss smiled: "It's just that this distinguished guest, all the rooms upstairs in the tavern are already full, so ...... You'll have to take these* somewhere else to enjoy. β
"Got it, trouble."
Not long after, a total of four maids stepped forward and sat beside the "distinguished guests", and several of them looked a little good.
"Gone!"
The person who came brought the hat, and the two of them hugged the maids and pushed the door away.
β¦β¦
"There's something wrong with this guy, keep up."
Luo Qingyi's beautiful eyes were full of vigilance, grabbed the long sword on the table and rushed out.
I also hurriedly followed her out of the tavern, in the middle of the night, the street was empty, the fog shrouded the whole town, Luo Qingyi chased nearly a mile, directly came to the outside of the town, and in the fog, a person stood, stretched out his hand to lift the hat, a pair of eyes full of jokes looked at Luo Qingyi.
He suddenly pushed out several maids in his arms, stretched out his tongue and licked his lips, and said with a cruel smile: "These vulgar fans are not interesting, the woman Lao Tzu really wants to enjoy is you, the lord of Julu City and the daughter of Luo Ning-Luo Qingyi!" β
"Khooth!"
Luo Qingyi directly drew his sword.
And at this moment, I also realized that this person's gaze was a little familiar, wasn't it the person who wanted to touch Luo Qingyi in the side hall that night?
"Whew!"
Luo Qingyi stabbed out with a sword, and the dimensional storm around his body was cold!
But the man seemed to be even more manic, and suddenly raised his hand and pulled out a blade behind him, which was a conical weapon, the corners of his mouth were filled with a cruel smile, and wisps of flames surged all over his body, and suddenly a blow swept the flames and hit Luo Qingyi's sword!
"Pengβ"
With a loud bang, Luo Qingyi retreated sharply, blood overflowed from the corners of her mouth, unbelievable, just one blow, she was already crushed in strength!
