Chapter 26
The silver fell like a drizzle, each drop shimmering. Gradually, they turned into tiny white dots and blended into the dust silently, as if the whole world was falling. Covered by a thin layer of silver gauze.
"Oh, this scene is really strange. This is the first time I have seen it in my life!" Li Qingge's eyes were shining with excitement, and there was a smile of surprise on the corner of his mouth. There seemed to be thousands of them in his heart. The butterflies are dancing and the flowers are blooming. She was wearing an elegant blue dress, the hem of which swayed gently in the wind, like a touch of freshness in spring.
It didn’t take long for her to figure out the secret of the cornucopia. As expected, as soon as the silver entered the pot, it turned into a seed, and then took root and sprouted, growing more and more silver. The silver seeds seemed to be alive, ready to move in the soil, and quickly broke out of the soil. The silver buds grew upwards, and soon they became leafy and covered with silver fruits. When the fruit is ripe, it falls off and turns into new seeds. This cycle continues endlessly.
“See, it’s already starting to grow!” Li Qingge pointed at the cornucopia, his eyes shining with surprise.
"This is too fast! The time in the basin is different from that outside, like a fast-forwarded movie." There was a bit of exclamation and disbelief in her voice.
Immediately afterwards, Li Qingge discovered another strange scene: clouds were floating and water was flowing, both much faster than usual. Obviously, the flow of time here was different from that outside. She looked up at the sky and saw clouds passing by quickly, like a moving picture; looking down at the ground, she saw a gurgling stream flowing so fast that it was staggering. Looking at the pot again, the silver seeds inside burst out of the ground in a swish, and the silver buds grew upwards in a swish. After a while, they became leafy and covered with silver fruits.
Li Qingge was stunned and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. The speed was simply astonishing. Two taels of silver turned into tens of thousands of taels in the blink of an eye. If time doesn't stop, it won't be long before the pot is bursting with money. There was an indescribable excitement and joy in her heart, as if she had discovered an endless treasure.
"It only took ten seconds to turn into a sea of silver. It can continue to grow after falling. It's so spectacular!" She couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Although I don't know how to count, but think about it this way, it won't be a problem to buy the entire Tang Dynasty in a few days!" There was a bit of ridicule and self-deprecation in her voice, but more It is the infinite longing and expectation for the future.
"The speed at which this pot generates money is simply unbelievable!" She sighed again, her eyes shining with longing and determination for the future.
Li Qingge smiled from ear to ear, and finally decided to put the basin away and let it grow slowly. She gently stroked the cornucopia, feeling the warm touch from it, and felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy in her heart. Then she opened her green field and looked at the thousands of acres of fertile fields. The heavy golden ears of rice were swaying gently in the breeze, as if whispering the joy of the harvest.
"Tomorrow will be another bumper harvest. Let Qian Toyota go and donate grain. Maybe we can get some more rewards." She thought secretly in her heart, with a sly smile on her lips.
“I don’t know what I will reward this time, but it will definitely be better than last time.” She was delighted, full of expectations and curiosity about the reward this time. After all, I have already received treasures like a cornucopia before, and this reward must be even more unique and precious.
Time flies by and the next day arrives in a blink of an eye. There were crowds of people outside the city gate. I heard that Qian Toyota was going to donate food again. Everyone was talking and discussing this topic in whispers.
"I thought he regretted it, but I didn't expect to donate so much again." A commoner wearing coarse clothes sighed.
"He is really a kind man. We have wrongly blamed him before." Another commoner shook his head and said, with admiration shining in his eyes.
"But where does his food come from? He almost donated it last time." A young scholar asked doubtfully.
"What a cunning rabbit, not to mention he is a businessman? How can he only have so little savings over the years?" An old man stroked his beard and smiled, with a wise light shining in his eyes.
When everyone thought about it, they all felt that if they had food, they would not donate it easily. As a result, they respected Qian Toyota even more, and they all gave them admiring looks and words of approval.
At this time, the sound of carriages and horses was heard in the distance, and Qian Toyota drove a dozen carriages slowly over. The car is filled with golden grain, the aroma is fragrant and mouth-watering. Everyone was stunned and extremely excited. The amount of food donated this time was even more than last time, which is unbelievable.
"Qian Dashan is really unparalleled in ancient and modern times! Please accept our worship!" A common person shouted excitedly, and he was about to kneel down and kowtow.
“We scholars have nothing to repay, so let’s write a few poems to praise you.” A young scholar said with a smile, his eyes shining with admiration and gratitude.
"Although I am not rich, I am willing to deposit money in your bank to show my respect." Another commoner said, with a bit of sincerity and respect in his voice.
The praises came in like a flood. Qian Toyota was a little stunned at first, but soon showed a look of joy. He had received such a high honor without doing anything, so he couldn't be more proud of himself. He lost himself in everyone's praise and walked with his head held high, his face full of pride and pride.
"As a citizen of the Tang Dynasty, how can we watch the people in Jiangnan suffer? Although the food I donated is not much, I have done my part." He said with pretense of humility, but the pride and pride in his eyes could not be concealed. .
"You don't have to praise me so much. This is what I should do." He smiled and nodded, and then went into the palace with the food. People's praises and applause accompanied him along the way, making him feel unprecedented honor and respect. Li Qingge stood aside with a faint smile on his lips, secretly planning the next step in his heart.
At that time, a group of wealthy businessmen looked at each other with confusion written on their faces, as if the sky was covered with dark clouds. Everyone seemed to be shrouded in mystery and unable to glimpse a corner of the truth.
"What's going on? His bank should be in total loss. How could he suddenly come up with so much food?" A businessman in gorgeous silk and satin frowned, as if he couldn't even The dust in the air is filled with confusion.
"Is it possible that there are really several large granaries hidden outside as rumored?" Another businessman tapped his fingers on the table, his eyes flickering, as if he wanted to find the answer from every detail.
"Look at this, he must have accumulated countless wealth over the years. He donated food without blinking an eye. He is so rich that he can compete with the country." An old businessman said with a hint of laughter in his voice. Trembling, both shocked and a bit unwilling.
"So, he should be the richest man in the Tang Dynasty, right?" As soon as these words came out, the envy, jealousy and hatred in the hearts of the businessmen were like overturning the five-flavor bottle, sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty, no matter what Can't calm down. Everyone is in business, how come he can amass money so easily, making people jealous and itchy?
In the blink of an eye, it was noon, the sun shone on the bluestone road, and the handover was done. Toyota returned to the bank with a smile, and knelt down to Li Qingge, his face full of expectation, like a bird waiting for a reward from its master. puppy.
"General Cheng, everything is done. The ten carts of food have been personally handed over to Master Wei Zheng. What do you think?" Toyota's voice was a bit flattering and a bit eager.
Li Qingge smiled slightly, that smile was like the warm sunshine in spring, warm but not dazzling, "Very good. I came here this time to fulfill my previous agreement." Her voice was calm and firm, revealing An unquestionable force.
"I said that I will deposit a large amount of funds into your village. However, you have to keep it secret for me." Li Qingge's eyes flashed with a hint of cunning and seriousness.
Toyoda nodded repeatedly, with a flattering light in his eyes, but secretly murmured in his heart: How much money can a general have? It's only a thousand taels at most, how could it be so mysterious? He was full of doubts, but he didn't dare to show them.
"Come to the backyard with me." Li Qingge said, opening the door and walking in first. Her figure elongated in the sunlight, making her appear extraordinarily tall.
Toyota followed behind, muttering in his heart: It’s only a thousand taels of silver, is there any need to be so mysterious? His steps were hesitant, but he had to keep up.
But as soon as he stepped into the backyard, Toyota was stunned, his eyes were bigger than a bell, and his heart almost stopped. I saw that the floor of the yard was filled with white silver, shining with dazzling light, which was almost blinding. The silver piled up like a mountain was shining with an alluring luster, as if each piece was telling a story of wealth.
"This...isn't this too much money? It's a hundred thousand taels at least!" Toyota's voice was trembling, and he collapsed directly to the ground, his mouth opened wide enough to fit an egg. He originally thought that Li Qingge was just an inconspicuous little general. How could he have imagined that he could be so rich? Seeing this scene, he realized how short-sighted his previous thoughts were.
[Speaking of them being wealthy businessmen of the Tang Dynasty, it’s ridiculous that they were so shocked by this little money. ] Li Qingge laughed secretly in her heart, her eyes showing a bit of disdain and a bit of indifference.
【But having said that, who wouldn't be surprised to see so much money suddenly? ] Her thoughts drifted away, as if she had returned to the moment that decided her fate.
[Although this money is stored in his bank, it is just a drop in the bucket to me, so it is nothing to give it to him. ] Li Qingge was thinking in her mind, her eyes showing a bit of indifference and a bit of detachment.
【But this matter still needs to be kept secret, don't let him get too happy and hurt himself. 】 A faint smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, which was both cunning and caring.
Li Qingge kept smiling and said loudly: "I will keep this money with you temporarily. I won't use it for the time being. You can use it as you like. But I have to ask you for something..." Her voice was calm and firm, revealing a An unquestionable force.
As soon as Toyota heard this, he immediately became energetic and asked, "General, please tell me, Toyota will do its best!" His voice was full of eagerness and expectation.
"If Datang is in trouble, I hope you can donate money to help immediately." Li Qingge's eyes revealed a bit of seriousness and a bit of expectation.
"This is just what I saved today, and there will be more in the future. Whenever I need money, I hope you can donate generously. But don't worry, the money I save will definitely be far more than what is needed. Amount." Her voice was full of confidence, as if she had everything under control.
When Toyota heard this, he was so happy that he couldn’t open his mouth from ear to ear. I thought to myself: If the Tang Dynasty can’t use this money, isn’t it all his own? This pie-in-the-sky good thing actually happened to me! His heart was filled with joy and expectation.
"General, you are such a kind man! Toyota is willing to serve you like a father. How about you accept me as your adopted son?" Toyota's voice was full of flattery and eagerness.
When Li Qingge heard this, his face immediately darkened, and he scolded: "Adopted son? Don't mention it again! I don't have such a son!" There was a hint of displeasure in her voice. Definitely.
Toyoda didn't take it seriously. He rolled on the ground with laughter and said, "General, are you satisfied?" His voice was full of flattery and flattery.
Li Qingge looked at his shameless look and sighed secretly: "This kid is so shameless! It's all the money that's to blame! Only when you have money can you understand the fun of this." The look in her eyes There was a bit of helplessness and a bit of indifference.
【Money is also a worry! Now I am the richest man, but before I can enjoy the happiness, I already have more money than I can hold. On the contrary, I felt it was meaningless. ] Li Qingge muttered secretly in her heart, her eyes showing a bit of confusion and helplessness.
[Money is just a number to me, it’s extremely boring. 】Her thoughts drifted away, as if she had returned to the days when she was running for life. Although it was hard work at that time, it was full of fun and challenges. And now? What does she have besides endless wealth and boring days?
Li Qingge sighed softly, worried about having too much money. The cornucopia kept producing silver day and night, far exceeding her expectations. Gradually, her obsession with money became less and less. She began to think about the meaning and value of life and began to look for things that could make her happy and satisfied. Maybe this is real happiness?
Thinking of this, Li Qingge couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart. She looked out the window. The bright moon hung high in the sky, casting a faint silver glow and covering everything in the courtyard with a soft halo. Under the moonlight, the flowers seemed more delicate and the leaves more green, but all this beauty seemed a bit blurry in her eyes. Her thoughts were as complex and profound as the night.
"Money is like dung". When I heard this sentence before, I just thought it was the hypocritical words of those noble people, and I wanted to go up and slap them. But now, she herself realized the deep meaning behind this sentence. If you have too much money, it is really just a number. The more money you pile up, the more it becomes boring. When you have things in your hands, you don't care about them so much. This truth really goes to your heart.
Li Qingge couldn't help but feel a surge of regret in his heart. Before she had time to enjoy the life of a rich person, the money was almost over. It's like you just unbuttoned your clothes and it ended suddenly before you even started doing anything. Isn't that depressing?
"General Cheng? General Cheng?" Qian Fengtian saw Li Qingge stunned and quickly called her in a low voice.
Li Qingge came back to his senses and smiled slightly. In her eyes, the money in the room was like dirt and she didn't like it at all. "Oh, just remember what I said. I'm leaving. I'll keep the money in your bank first." Her voice was calm and indifferent, as if the money was just something insignificant.
Qian Toyota's face twitched slightly, and his heartbeat accelerated. He couldn't believe his eyes. This hundred thousand taels of white silver made his eyes dazzled. He was so excited that he almost shouted out. Thinking of holding so much money in your hand, you can spend it however you want, just one word - "cool"!
But then, he felt a little frightened. Li Qingge threw out one hundred thousand taels in such an understatement. It seemed that his family must be much richer than this. "How much money do you have to be so calm? This kid is too courageous to dare to do this." Qian Toyota sighed secretly, feeling ashamed.
At this time, Li Qingge had returned to Cheng Mansion and entered the study. The first thing she did was open the cornucopia and take a closer look. Oh my god! The silver light in this basin is so dazzling! That wealth and aura can crush a mountain. With so much money, it would not be a problem to buy the entire Tang Dynasty.
However, looking at the pot full of money, Li Qingge fell into deep thought. "I've become the richest man in the Tang Dynasty, why can't I be happy?" She said to herself, "Money is something that you have to save slowly to be interesting. If you have so much money all at once, you don't know what to do. "After saying that, she still felt a little regretful. She felt that although the cornucopia could make money, it also made her lose the fun of making money. It was really a mistake!
If outsiders heard her thinking this, they would have to call her Versailles. But Li Qingge didn't care about this. She only knew her true feelings in her heart.
"Get some sleep first, think about how to deal with that assassin, and try my Nether Eyes." Ever since he got the Nether Eyes, Li Qingge has been thinking about the assassin, hoping to run into him again. This eye can copy the enemy's moves, and can even reproduce the moves in memory, but it can only be used three times, each time for no more than a quarter of an hour. Li Qingge was full of confidence and felt that once he used it, he would definitely shock everyone.
However, the assassin was scared away by Tiangong Lao Niu last time, and it is unlikely that he will appear again. "The loneliness of a master is really unspeakable." Li Qingge sighed in his heart. Although she claimed to be number one in Datang in many fields, she always felt that something was missing in her life. She smiled bitterly and lay down to sleep.
As soon as I closed my eyes, there was a burst of noise outside: "Where is my son? I have grown a lot of face these days. I have to have a good chat with him today!" The guards and servants shouted hurriedly Said: "The master is here, please invite the general!"
It turned out that Cheng Yaojin entered the house with a red face. Recently, His Majesty always asks Li Qingge about this and that. Cheng Yaojin thinks this is a supreme honor, and his family will also benefit from it. Each of his sons has their own future, some have made meritorious service in the army, and some have protected His Majesty. Only Li Qingge was not favored before, but now he is suddenly so capable. How could he not be proud?
"Dad, I'm here." Li Qingge walked out quickly, smiling like a flower. Although she was not Cheng Yaojin's biological son, she inherited his memory and naturally regarded Cheng Yaojin as her biological father.
Cheng Yaojin patted Li Qingge on the shoulder and laughed, but he was afraid of hurting him, so he quickly stopped his force. He looked at Li Qingge's strong shoulders, his eyes full of surprise and relief. "Haha! My son really makes me proud! Those wealthy businessmen in Chang'an are all very stingy, and you can actually pluck so many hairs from them!"
Li Qingge replied with a smile: "It's all a ploy. It's thanks to my father that I have no son! My father was so powerful in Wagangzhai, but I can still learn a little bit from him." Her voice was full of admiration and admiration for Cheng Yaojin. gratitude.
Cheng Yaojin said happily: "What a boy! You are strong, and you must have adventures. Come on, come on, come and try your hand at the martial arts training ground with dad, and see how powerful you are now." Then he pulled Li Qingge towards the martial arts training ground. His heart was filled with expectations and pride for Li Qingge, as if he had already seen Li Qingge showing off his skills on the martial arts field.
Speaking of Li Qingge, as a descendant of a military general, she prefers the leisurely and contented life of doing nothing. However, fate always seems to play tricks on others, and the martial arts training ground at home is a symbol of her inescapable fate. The martial arts training ground was kept spotless by the servants, and the sun shined through the sparse clouds on this land full of swords and shadows. Various weapons were placed around, including swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks and forks, and eighteen martial arts skills, shining brightly in the sun, as if each one was telling the glory of the past.
"Daughter, dad today I want to see how your martial arts is going. Don't give me face when you do it, dad, I can handle it." Cheng Yaojin walked away with a smile. Entering the martial arts training ground, his burly figure and heroic laughter seemed to reverberate throughout the space. He walked to the weapon shelf, only to find that the shelf was full of double axes. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said, "Hey, you understand my thoughts quite well. I like all these axes." The joy was like a child getting his favorite toy.
Li Qingge responded with a wry smile: "This... I'm afraid it's not good, right? If I really try my best, I'm afraid I'll hurt you." She knew in her heart that her father's martial arts skills were excellent, even though everyone said outside He only knows three axes, but those three axes are versatile and powerful. If I don't use some special means, I'm afraid I won't even be able to catch two axes, which would be embarrassing; but if I use it, I won't win with force, which seems unfilial. Her brows were furrowed, her heart was in a state of confusion, and she couldn't make a choice. "What? Do you think you are sure of winning, and are you afraid that I can't stand it?" Cheng Yaojin laughed, his laughter full of love and expectation for his daughter, "It's okay! If you can really beat me, Dad It's too late for me to be happy, because I'm afraid you won't win." After saying that, he looked at Li Qingge expectantly, his eyes full of encouragement and trust.
"In that case, you're welcome, kid." Li Qingge smiled bitterly, shook his head, and picked up a long sword from the shelf. This sword is the famous Dugu Nine Swords. The sword body is light, the blade is sharp, and the scabbard can protect the body and will not hurt Dad. She gently unsheathed her sword, and the sword's light was like water, instantly illuminating the entire martial arts field.
In the blink of an eye, a faint blue light flashed in Li Qingge's eyes, which was a symbol of the surge of true energy in her body. The essence of Dugu Nine Swords instantly poured into her mind, and the true energy rose from her Dantian and flowed throughout her body. She seemed to be integrated with the sword and became its master.
At this moment, three people quietly climbed onto the roof, their eyes full of murderous intent and conspiracy. They secretly watched everything in the martial arts training ground, and their hearts were full of surprise and joy.
"Cheng Yaojin is here too?" one of them whispered, "We are not his opponent, we have to be careful." "It's okay, his eyesight is not good, he can't see that far, even if he can see They can't catch up with us when we get there." "Oh, that kid is pretending with a sword. Who doesn't know that she is a waste?" The three people looked down on Li Qingge and wanted to take the opportunity to see her strength.
However, their words were like sharp blades, piercing deeply into Li Qingge's heart. Although she remained calm on the outside, deep down she was filled with endless anger and determination. She wants to use her own strength to prove to them that she is by no means a waste!
"The sword hasn't been unsheathed yet? Good boy, you are giving in to me." Cheng Yaojin felt warm in his heart when he saw this scene. He came with a smile and swung his ax, and the wind howled, approaching Li Qingge. The ax move was so fierce that it seemed to split the air.
"Well done!" Li Qingge praised, the long sword trembled slightly and pointed diagonally, pointing right at the flaw in the ax move. Her swordsmanship was extremely superb, and every move and every move was just right to break Cheng Yaojin's ax moves.
"It's so hard to find a flaw, but your swordsmanship is so superb!" Cheng Yaojin was shocked. He didn't expect that his daughter's swordsmanship had reached such an advanced level. He felt a sense of relief and pride in his heart, as if he had seen his daughter's future glory.
However, Cheng Yaojin's three-blade ax is not just as simple as three-blade axe. He has many changes and endless ax moves. He shouted loudly, his ax moves suddenly changed, and he pounced on the sword like a tiger. The menacing look seemed to swallow everything up.
“Dad reacted so quickly.” Li Qingge responded calmly, her swordsmanship as natural and smooth as flowing clouds and flowing water. What Dugu Nine Swords emphasizes is to win with no moves but with one move at a time, find flaws and then break them with one blow. Its brilliance lies in its ability to find the opponent's flaws in the ever-changing situation and deliver a fatal blow.
Li Qingge's heart was racing. She was afraid that she would be shrouded in the shadow of the Sunflower Book again. It was an evil and powerful martial arts secret that had brought her endless pain and trouble. She decided to make a quick decision and not leave any regrets to herself.
The long sword moved suddenly, and the moves appeared one after another like ghosts. The sword shadows were densely intertwined, forming sharp sword nets that were approaching Cheng Yaojin. Cheng Yaojin retreated continuously, feeling an unprecedented pressure rushing towards him. Forced by the sword shadow, his two axes flew up into the air.
"Huh?" Cheng Yaojin was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that his daughter's strength had surpassed him. He then nodded with joy, "My good daughter, you have mastered swordsmanship to this extent!" His voice was full of pride and pride, as if he saw his daughter's future in the martial arts world.
"Father, how can I sincerely give in to me? I am obviously not good at my skills. How can I dare to confront you, father? Otherwise, I would have been lying on the ground long ago." Li Qingge smiled, his words were full of humility and gentleness. The smile is like a ray of warm sunshine in spring, neither too dazzling nor too warm. Her eyes sparkled with respect for her father and self-knowledge of herself.
There were many attendants surrounding him. They were standing or standing, their eyes focused on the two people present - Cheng Yaojin and Li Qingge. If they see that I really beat my father, then my father's majesty will be gone all of a sudden. Therefore, Li Qingge and I naturally have to keep a low profile and be humble. With this thought in her mind, a faint smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. There was both helplessness and filial piety towards her father in that smile.
"Although I didn't use all my strength, you were able to make me give in within a few moves, which is already very rare." Cheng Yaojin's hearty voice resounded throughout the martial arts training ground. He has a straightforward personality. Not hypocritical. But for the sake of his son, this time he just went with the flow and acknowledged his son's "victory." His eyes were full of love and encouragement, as if to say: "You have done a good job."
When the attendants saw this, they all secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They thought that the young master was really more powerful than the master. In fact, the master gave in on purpose. They exchanged glances, secretly glad that they didn't make a fool of themselves due to misjudgment. The young master has never seen him practicing swordsmanship. The training ground is just a decoration for him. The old housekeeper smiled bitterly on the side, shook his head, and muttered in his heart that the master was too doting on the young master, and even gave in to the competition. If this continues, the young master may be harmed. There was both helplessness and concern for Cheng Yaojin in his eyes.
The three assassins hiding on the roof had disdain on their faces. When they first saw Li Qingge's golden swordsmanship, they were really shocked and suspected that he was very powerful. But once I heard that Cheng Yaojin admitted that he had betrayed him, I felt at ease. They had long heard that Li Qingge was a loser, but today they were so shocked to see that he had such superb swordsmanship that their jaws almost dropped.
"Hmph! I thought he secretly practiced some amazing swordsmanship, but it turned out to be a misunderstanding." One of the assassins snorted, his tone full of disdain.
"Trash has always been trash, how could he suddenly become a swordsman?" Another assassin also echoed, their eyes full of contempt for Li Qingge.
"What should we do now? Do you want to do something?" the third assassin asked in a low voice, with some hesitation in his tone.
"Why move! Cheng Yaojin is here. Who dares to look down on him? I think back then he charged into battle and retreated an army of 100,000 people. This is no joke." The bald assassin rolled his eyes, took a deep breath, and thought in his heart Secretly regretting it. I was scared away by the dragon last time. I wanted to try again this time, but I didn't expect Cheng Yaojin to come again, so I had to come back another day. His tone contained both awe for Cheng Yaojin and regret for not completing the task.
The three of them sighed and shuttled across the roof like lightning. The buildings of Datang towered into the clouds, and the servants were busy with their own affairs and had no time to look up. Therefore, although the three of them made a lot of noise, no one noticed it. They shuttled between the rooftops like ghosts, looking for a way to escape.
However, their actions had already been noticed by Li Qingge. Her eyes had locked on their hiding place, and a sneer curled up at the corner of her mouth. The sneer contained both contempt for the assassins and mockery of their ignorance. The three of them were unaware and continued to gallop on the roof, unaware that their life and death was in Li Qingge's hands.
Suddenly, a figure flashed in front of them, and Li Qingge, dressed in white, was already standing in front of them. With her back facing the sword, she was so powerful that the three of them couldn't help but hold their breath. Her eyes flashed with determination, as if to say: "You can never escape again."
"Who are you? We have no grievances, can you let us live?" Bald head The assassin's eyes were fierce and he held the short knife tightly, trying to shake Li Qingge's determination with words.
"Brother, why do you have to be so polite? Just do it." The second brother shrugged his nose and drew his sword, his tone full of desire for battle.
"Yes! This kid suddenly appeared. There must be a conspiracy. We are welcome!" The third child frowned and pulled out the knife. His eyes were full of vigilance and hostility.
In an instant, cold light radiated, swords and swords intertwined, and a life and death battle was about to begin.
"You have come to see me for the second time, and now I am standing here, and you still don't recognize me?" Li Qingge turned around slowly, with a hint of leisure and confidence in his tone. Her eyes shone with anticipation of battle and firm belief in victory.
"You have such a bad memory, you need to be treated!" There was a hint of ridicule and ridicule in her words, as if she was telling the assassins that their failure was already doomed.
"Li Qingge!" The three assassins were shocked, their fierce looks revealed. It's actually this kid? We were chatting and laughing with Cheng Yaojin just now, why are we here in the blink of an eye? The movement is too fast! Their hearts were filled with surprise at Li Qingge's strength and tension and anticipation for the upcoming battle.
A strange feeling surged throughout my body, and a strange aura filled my heart. They knew that this battle would be a life and death contest, and their fate was already in Li Qingge's hands.
"I would like to ask who you are?" Li Qingge frowned, full of doubts in his heart. She blocked their way, just to ask for clarification. She has been keeping a low profile since traveling here, so how could she attract assassins? And although the court was complicated, she believed that she was kind to others and that no one should pay to kill someone. Her tone contained both confusion about the identity of the assassins and exploration of their purpose behind them.
"The rules of the world don't ask about the behind-the-scenes. General Cheng, why do you need to get to the bottom of it?" The bald assassin sneered and shook his head, "Besides, you are about to die at my hands. On the road to reincarnation, you drank Meng Po soup. Even if you know it, you will forget it." His tone was full of contempt for death and threats to Li Qingge.
"You make sense. But I don't want to die!" Li Qingge shook her head, her eyes shining with persistence for life and firm belief in fighting. She knows that this battle will determine her life, death and destiny, but she will never give up easily.
"Life and death are determined by fate. Since you showed up, you will definitely die. Don't resent us, you died in vain." The corners of the bald assassin's mouth were slightly raised, full of disdain. His words were full of predictions about Li Qingge's death and ridicule of her fate.
However, Li Qingge was not swayed by his words. She knows that her strength and wisdom are enough to deal with this crisis. She smiled slightly, and that smile contained both contempt for the assassin and confidence in her own strength. She knew that this battle would be a life and death battle, but she was fully prepared.
"Death in vain? I understand, your target is not me, but you want to use my death to hurt someone." Li Qingge speculated cautiously after pondering for a moment. Her eyes sparkled with insight into the assassins' intentions and the revelation of their plot.
"That person, could it be Li Shimin?" Her words contained a hint of coldness and speculation about the mastermind behind the assassin. She knew that there must be a larger conspiracy and purpose behind this assassination, and she was just a pawn in it. But she will never let the assassins' conspiracy succeed. She will use her strength and wisdom to expose the truth and protect the people and things she loves.
Hey, I figured it out. Although I didn’t take the initiative to cause trouble, that boy Li Shimin, as the emperor, always inadvertently attracted a lot of resentment. After all, with his overwhelming power and arrogant arrogance, who in the Tang Dynasty could compare with him? But having said that, he is the emperor after all. Even if he really offends someone, others can only tolerate it. How can he dare to express dissatisfaction? But how can you deal with the people around him? What a headache.
Li Qingge frowned and thought hard. She stood in the center of the martial arts training ground, the sun shining through the sparse clouds on her body, adding a bit of warmth to her already cold temperament. Her eyes were deep, as if she could see everything in the world, but at this moment, she couldn't think of a master who could deal with those people.
She sighed and glanced at the various weapons on the martial arts training ground. Swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, axes, hooks and forks, and guys with eighteen martial arts skills shone in the sun, but none of them could ease her heart. of anxiety. Now, there is only one way, and that is to find out the mastermind directly. These three guys must be restrained and asked to tell the truth.
“Don’t think about it, who knows who sent us here.” The assassin who called himself the second-in-command curled up his lips with disdain on his face. With a sudden movement of his body, the dagger went straight to Li Qingge's throat. The short knife shone coldly in the sunlight, like a poisonous snake, ready to pounce on its prey.
"It was a killer move right from the start, very professional." Li Qingge's eyes lit up, and instead of being afraid, he smiled. Ever since she got the Nether Eye, she has always wanted to try this ability, and now the opportunity has come. There was a bit of confidence and anticipation in her smile, as if she had already seen the result of victory.
In the blink of an eye, a faint blue light flashed in her eyes. That is the power of the Nether Eye, her unique weapon. The speed of the second child was as fast as lightning, but suddenly it slowed down, and became slower and slower. It was as if time had frozen around him.
At this time, a mechanical voice sounded in Li Qingge's mind:
"Zhang Laoer, male, twenty-eight years old, from the Black Tiger Gang."
"The martial arts he used are called Long Teng Sword Technique!”
"The Dragon Sword Technique is a combination of a short sword and boxing techniques, with fast and violent movements, like a leaping dragon and a tiger."
"Now, you automatically learn the Dragon Teng Saber Technique, and the time limit is one minute."
< br>
Following the prompts from the Nether Eyes, the essence of Longteng's sword technique poured into Li Qingge's mind like a flood, as clear as if it were real. She seemed to see the founder of Longteng Sword Technique, wielding a short sword on the battlefield, invincible. Every detail and every change in the sword technique was deeply imprinted in her heart.
You know, most of the Dragon Soaring Sword Technique was lost twenty years ago, but the Nether Eye restored it completely! Not only the essence, but also the flaws and flaws are clear. For Zhang Laoer, it seemed like a moment. His originally confident smile suddenly froze on his face, replaced by eyes full of horror and confusion.
As soon as the Nether Eyes stopped, time seemed to return to normal. The slow knife suddenly became extremely sharp, and it was in front of Li Qingge with a swish. However, Li Qingge just smiled and slapped his backhand. Her palm seemed to carry an invisible force, easily dissolving the sharp sword force into the invisible.
Pop!
A crisp applause sounded, and the second child screamed and flew out. Fortunately, the bald man and the third child caught him and prevented him from falling directly to the ground. The three of them looked at each other with shock and confusion in their eyes. They originally thought their plan was flawless, but they didn't expect it to be easily cracked by this seemingly weak woman.
"Broken my Dragon Soaring Sword Technique with one palm? It's useless!" The second child was so frightened that his face changed, as if he had seen a ghost. The move he just made was the strongest among the Dragon Soaring Sword Techniques. He originally wanted to kill it with one strike, but the flaw was immediately caught by the opponent and broken with one palm. His heart was filled with reluctance and anger, but more importantly, fear.
The bald man and the third child were dumbfounded and shocked beyond words. They originally thought that their strength was strong enough, but now it seems that they are still too naive. This woman's strength far exceeded their imagination.
"The Longteng sword technique was originally very powerful, but it is a pity that it has been lost. You treat it like a treasure, but in fact it is just a joke." Li Qingge sighed, his expression a bit complicated. She felt sorry for the loss of Longteng Sword Technique, but also felt ridiculous for the ignorance of these people.
"How do you know Longteng's sword skills?" The three of them were stunned. They originally thought that no one knew their secrets, but now it seems that this woman seems to know everything about them.
After Li Shimin became emperor, he restricted warriors. Those top martial arts sects have either retired to seclusion, become clients of wealthy families, or have hidden in the mountains and forests. Some people who were afraid of the court and a poor life went into the underground world. The Black Tiger Gang evolved from the inheritance of Long Teng's sword skills. This is a secret. But now, this secret seems to have been easily revealed by this woman.
"The Dragon Sword Technique is not something you can use, and the inheritance received by the Black Tiger Gang is not true." Li Qingge said calmly. Her tone was full of confidence and majesty, as if she was the true successor of Long Teng's sword technique.
"Lend me your sword so that you can see the real Longteng swordsmanship." She smiled, put the long sword on the ground, and reached out to ask for the sword from the three people. There was a bit of teasing and provocation in her smile, as if she had seen their shocked expressions.
"Real Soaring Dragon? What we use is real. We are here to deal with you, how could we lend you the knife..." The bald head yelled angrily. Before he finished speaking, there was a flash of light and the dagger was gone!
Everyone took a breath and looked at the bald man’s hand, which was empty. Li Qingge had returned to his original position, holding the short knife in his hand. Her movements were so fast, it was like a bolt of lightning streaking across the sky, making it impossible to catch her trajectory.
“Why is his movement so fast?”
"Could he also know the Dragon Soaring Body Technique?"
"What's going on?"
"He can't really know the Dragon Soaring Sword Technique, right?"
......
The three people were so frightened that they were sweating profusely and stepped back step by step, with panic on their faces. They originally thought that their strength was strong enough, but now it seems that they are as small as ants in front of this woman.
I didn’t believe Li Qingge’s words at first, but now I believe it more or less. They looked at Li Qingge's confident smile, and their hearts were filled with fear and uneasiness. They knew that this woman had taken control of their life and they could not escape her control.
Looking at the looks of the three of them, Li Qingge curled his lips and knew that they already believed in Long Teng's sword skills. But if you want them to be convinced, you have to show your true Longteng sword skills. So, holding a short sword in her hand, she stretched out her body like a leaping dragon and a tiger leaping, showing the three of them the true soaring dragon sword skills. Every movement in that sword technique is full of power and beauty, as if a real dragon is soaring in the sky. The three of them were stunned, and awe of Li Qingge arose in their hearts. They knew that this woman was no longer someone they could deal with at will.
