Chapter 94 Straight hook fishing bait! Who is the fisherman?
Li Mingqi himself was just the loser of the sect in the fight for the throne. He fled the sect in a hurry. He unexpectedly discovered that in this remote corner of the country, there was actually an affiliated force belonging to the Soul Capturing Sect, so he came here directly.
Since there is only one black iron vein here which is not very precious, Li Mingqi does not pay much attention to this place.
The descendants of the foundation-building monks are all high in the sect. Even if they are wandering and living in poverty, they do not think that the place guarded by a small inner disciple is suitable for their status.
In his understanding, the Qi family affiliated with the Soul-Calling Sect is extremely weak, and does not even have high-level monks who practice Qi. He can destroy this family by himself, and he will not be able to provide much help to it at all. .
However, upon arriving at the Qi family, Li Mingqi was surprised to find that the Qi family was actually developing well. Both the family size and the strength of the family far exceeded his expectations.
Not only are the family buildings continuous and majestic, but the Qi family is also very powerful. The top leaders of the Qi family he has seen have a solid foundation and have the potential to take a step forward.
It can be said that the Qi family can be used by themselves and become one of their own team after a good training.
Although Li Mingqi is arrogant, he is not an idiot. Because of the relationship between the three elders, a group of people have always gathered around him to give him advice. They were originally disciples trained for the higher levels of the sect, but their basic vision is still exist.
If we were to divide the forces under the Soul-Capturing Sect, it would be impossible for the Qi family to be like the evaluation reported in the sect’s internal newspaper. Instead, they were thriving, forming a huge contrast.
This Qi family definitely has a secret, otherwise the Qi family, which is so weak in the impression that it does not even have a senior Qi practitioner, would not have been able to create such a large-scale change in such a short period of time.
This is Li Mingqi’s ultimate purpose of staying here.
What they say now sounds nice, that they are preparing for a counterattack, but in fact they are the losers of the sect's internal fighting. They have long been jealous, like gamblers who have lost all their money. Any A little profit can make them murderous.
What's more, the small Qi family and the inner disciple Zheng Yi were completely ignored by their group.
It's like putting meat on a chopping board. If I don't start now, I feel really itchy.
"Sir, the Qi family is quite honest these days and allows us to explore at will."
The men then stepped forward and reported the Qi family's attitude. The Qi Lian family treated them very well when they arrived, completely showing the reverence of the local small family for the true disciples of the Shang Zong.
I’m afraid that if I don’t provide good hospitality, I might offend them.
There was absolutely no intention of hindering their exploration.
“It seems the news hasn’t come through yet!”
Li Mingqi couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. His current cultivation level was not weak. He had been cared for and personally taught by the third elder since he was a child, and now he had reached the eighth level of Qi training.
However, I just suffered a big defeat and collapsed in the sect's internal fighting. Now I still have lingering fears. Now that I have just arrived in this small place and have to plan for the Qi family, I have become cautious and suspicious.
If before, the Third Elder was still alive and the position of the Soul-Calling Sect was stable, he would be able to destroy the Qi-training families in these places with just one word.
But now, Li Mingqi doesn’t think so.
After setbacks and experiences, people will always mature. Making decisions before taking action is the basic hard truth.
Besides, after a battle with other forces within the sect, Li Mingqi fled the sect in a hurry. Both he and his followers were injured and could not unleash their full strength.
If there are pursuers behind them, they will have to rely on local snakes like the Qi family for cover, so they must be extremely careful.
However, although Li Mingqi was careful, he still had some preconceptions. They did not know that Zheng Yi arranged for Qi Lin to do all this.
This small Badong Town mining area has long been managed by Zheng Yi like a monolith. They can easily penetrate wherever they first arrived.
What they did seemed hidden, but in fact everything was under the surveillance of people arranged by Zheng Yi.
It looks smart, but in fact it is just an embroidered pillow, a straw bag, a rough belly, and an empty stomach.
This is Zheng Yi’s evaluation of Li Mingqi.
Now is an extraordinary period. Zheng Yi has a base camp in the apocalyptic world. Now is the time to grow. Generally speaking, if it is not a vital interest, Zheng Yi does not want to cause trouble. It is best to do everything Everything passed peacefully.
He did not even stop Li Mingqi's entourage from moving, otherwise the other party would not be able to inquire about the information, and it would be difficult to move around the entire Badong Town mining area.
If Li Mingqi realizes his intention, recovers from his injuries, and leaves the Qi family obediently, Zheng Yi will definitely treat him politely when leaving the country and give him some resources as a gift.
You take your sunny path and I cross my single-plank bridge. The two sides do not touch each other.
Both the Qi family and Zheng Yi need more time to develop, and they will not cause trouble if they can.
Looking at the posture of Li Mingqi's side, Zheng Yi was ready to swat him to death like a fly, trying his best to eliminate the weeds and leave no further trouble.
As long as it does not affect the development plans of the Qi family.
……
Li Mingqi nodded slightly and motioned to his men to continue.
“According to our people’s careful investigation and observation in the past few days, the entire Qi family is completely different from the impression. The strength of the Qi family members is generally not low, but it should still be within our response range.”
"In addition, the Qi family seems to have made a fortune in the past few years. Various training facilities are quite complete, such as training rooms, body tempering rooms, weapon refining rooms, etc., although the level is not high, but It is definitely a treasure place.”
“What’s more, what really surprised us is that this small Qi family actually developed a number of caravans, although we don’t know its specific trade. , but the Qi family has grown to such a scale that it is enough to see that the trade of these caravans has made a lot of money."
"The only thing our people have not been able to explore until now is what the Qi family does. Resource trading? The black iron ore cannot be of such value. It should be that the Qi family has something good that we don’t know about.” A report was also given to Li Mingqi.
In the main hall, everyone gathered the information and discovered a surprising fact. This Qi family is not like a small family at all. With so many resources and so many training facilities, it is simply not something that ordinary Qi-training families can put together. Qi.
"By the way, I remember that when Sun De was investigating a few days ago, he accidentally discovered a secret. There seems to be a hidden force being trained in the Qi family. Have you gone to find out about it?"
Li Mingqi remembered that when his subordinate Sun De reported before, he specifically mentioned something about the information he had learned from other sources.
In the Qi family, someone is secretly training forces.
Because Sun De practiced earth walking techniques and had extraordinary talents, he actually found the valley in the dark.
When I came back to report, I was shocked.
It is said that in a valley, a certain number of monks who practiced the Blood Demon Dao had gathered. Seeing the surging blood energy, they felt frightened and rushed back to report.
But since then, the Qi family seems to have noticed that the defenses in the valley have become tighter, and even Sun De, who practices earth walking, can no longer easily approach there.
After the news came back, Li Mingqi was surprised.
He did not expect that this small Qi family, which was rated as a weak force by the sect's inner hall, not only satisfied its own cultivation resources, developed a large number of caravans, but also had the ability to The power of supporting a special group of dead soldiers who practiced the Blood Demon Dao was completely beyond his imagination.
What does this little Qi family want to do?
Hidden so deeply.
If it hadn’t been for the sudden change in the Soul-Capturing Sect and my group had fled here, I might not have discovered this secret.
But that is not what Li Mingqi is thinking about now.
How the Qi family keeps a low profile and hides itself is not the focus of his attention. He doesn't even care about the Qi family's purpose.
What he is really curious about is, what is the secret that made the Qi family suddenly rise?
What resources does a small local family have at its disposal to be able to grow to this point in just a few years?
And can all of this be used for him? This is the most important thing.
If it can be used by him, then take the Qi family as his own, steal his position while he still has the strength, and take advantage of the situation to develop and grow, but he may gather strength to rise in the future and counterattack the mountain gate.
If you can't use it to his advantage, then play a big game and kill people and steal the treasure before the Qi family can react. I believe it will also make you and others have a good time.
No matter what you do, you will never miss a good deal.
“Yes, in the valley, everyone is a member of the Qi family, and they are mysterious. They are all monks who practice the Blood Demon Dao. Judging from the gathered Yin Erosion Blood Demon, , most likely it is the magic secret art of blood refining..." "It's just that it's hard for my subordinates to understand. Although this magic skill is progressing very fast, it requires very high blood qualifications. Where did this little Qi family find such a skill? How many blood madmen meet the requirements? Is it also related to the resources that are closely guarded by the Qi family? "
The monk responsible for the investigation is Sun De, who has been following Li Mingqi since he was a child. The Soul-Capturing Sect, a small family belonging to the Third Elder's faction, was also the loser in this battle.
Seeing that this small Qi family was not only unaffected by the great changes in the Soul Capturing Sect because it was too remote, it even prospered.
Jealousy burned his heart like a demonic fire, and he wished he could use all the fire to burn everything he hated into ashes.
"This is indeed a good place. I have already imagined the prototype of a small force? How can a small Qi family control such a place? If morality is not matched, it will be punished. Disaster..."
"It seems that this is God helping us, letting us take advantage of the situation, and giving us a great gift!"
Li Mingqi let out a sigh of relief, his expression He said solemnly, but a fiery light suddenly appeared in his eyes, which was a kind of desire called greed.
A thing called ambition arises from the bottom of my heart.
......
In a training room, Qi Lin was also reporting word for word in front of Zheng Yi.
The various movements, words and deeds of Li Mingqi and his party were all under surveillance and accurately recorded.
“It seems that this true disciple, the descendant of the third elder, is also a person who is unwilling to be lonely!”
In the secret room, Zheng Yi opened his eyes and sighed softly.
“Continue to monitor and wait for my order to close the network.”
Qi Lin accepted the order and left. He knew in his heart who was the real backstage of the Qi family and who allowed the Qi family to develop so rapidly. Get up.
Without Zheng Yi's thick legs, he and the Qi family were nothing, so they carried out Zheng Yi's orders meticulously.
To be honest, Li Mingqi also tempted him, and even promised him various generous conditions. On the surface, Qi Lin was respectful and loyal like a pug, but in his heart, he always sneered and looked at Li Mingqi. The group of people seemed to be watching a group of jokes.
He is a real person, and what he wants is real benefits. Li Mingqi and his party are losers in the civil strife at Shanmen. A group of fallen dogs who have been driven to a remote corner dare to use such empty terms. To tempt themselves into really thinking that others are just as stupid as they are.
What's more, even if Li Mingqi offers real benefits, Qi Lin is ready to slap him in the back. He and the Qi family will die on Zheng Yi's thick leg. Everything else is bullshit.
The interests between them are so tightly bound that they have long been like grasshoppers on a rope, unable to escape.
How can it be pried by others with just a few words?
“The tiger is harmless to man, but the tiger is harmful to the human heart...”
"Originally I wanted to leave you a way to survive, but unfortunately I really don't know how to advance or retreat. Since I don't worry about it, there is no need to blame me for being ruthless."
A calm voice sounded in Zheng Yi's secret practice room, as if Talking about a trivial matter, Zheng Yi slowly closed his eyes and continued to practice.
......
In the main hall of the Qi family, Li Mingqi and the others were thinking about something, and the atmosphere in the hall was a bit solemn.
"Sir, since this is the territory of the Soul-Capturing Sect, let's just settle here. With the Qi family's background, I believe it won't be long before you can rise again and regain the sect's throne. "
Suddenly, someone spoke.
"That's very well said. A real man does things informally. This is the territory of the Soul-Calling Sect. As a direct disciple of the sect and a blood descendant of the third elder, you have the power and qualifications to lead the Qi family."
"As long as you speak, whether it is the Qi family or the little inner disciple, if you don't give up obediently, why do you still want to resist?"
As soon as the last sentence came out , which immediately caused everyone to laugh.
In their inherent impression, the direct disciples are the core inheritors of the sect, and they are also the future senior leaders of the sect. Even if they are in a bad situation now, they can still deal with a small inner disciple and a Isn’t that a simple matter for the small Qi family?
They are now a group of people who not only occupy the sect's righteousness but also possess overwhelming power. Isn't it easy to steal a Qi family's secrets?
But now it seems that if they want to make a comeback, it is still necessary to rectify the Qi family.
"In this case, we can only aggrieve Junior Brother Zheng Yi."
With your words and my words, it seems that the Qi family has become Li Mingqi's bag. It was as if Zheng Yi and the Qi family would obediently give everything as long as they moved their hands.
Li Mingqi has long coveted the Qi family, but there have been constant turmoils along the way, so he still has some concerns.
But now that so many of his fellow disciples have persuaded him, he naturally followed the trend.
They are a group of fierce dragons crossing the river. Even if the Qi family is a local snake, in the face of such a situation, I am afraid they have to stay humble.
......
A few days passed in the blink of an eye. Under the warm hospitality of the Qi family, Li Mingqi and his party had a good time.
But the more this happens, the more they are envious of the Qi family’s heritage. In their opinion, why does a small local Qi-training family have such good luck?
They, the proud disciples of the sect, were reduced to the point of being homeless and competing for food with the small families under them.
So the more unwilling you are, the more greedy, and the more jealous you are, the easier it is to go astray.
On the surface, everyone is harmonious, but under Li Mingqi's secret operation, all the information after the investigation was summarized.
Their plan to steal the entire Qi family is also progressing smoothly.
On this day, Li Mingqi and others held a party and specially invited Zheng Yi to the banquet.
Obviously, Li Mingqi and his party were not aware of it themselves. Unknowingly, they had even regarded themselves as their masters and commanded them without hesitation.
The two parties communicated enthusiastically, and the atmosphere of the entire party was lively. After a while, the food and wine were removed, and someone spoke slowly.
"Junior brother Zheng Yi, you have been guarding the Qi family for a year. You have really worked hard and made great achievements. This time, senior brother Li Mingqi is considerate of you and specially replaced you. I wonder what you think? You can return to the sect directly and resume your life. Will you still There are other rewards..."
During the banquet, Li Mingqi glanced, and an inner disciple suddenly stood up and said.
“Thank you for your concern, senior brother, but this small Qijia Badong Town mining area is a corner of the land. How can we bother a sect true seed like senior brother Li to manage it personally? Isn’t that overkill? ?”
"Excuse me, Senior Brother Li. Since Zheng has accepted the order to stay here for three years, he will naturally not abandon it just because of the hard work. He will definitely work hard here and manage the black iron ore veins for the sect..."< br>
Zheng Yi was not surprised, he acted neither humble nor overbearing, and said with a smile.
"You..."
It seems that Zheng Yi, an inner disciple who has no foundation in the sect, refused to take any advice and even hit a soft nail. Annoyed, he was about to get angry, but was stopped by Li Mingqi with a wave of his hand.
"Okay, we are all brothers in the same sect, don't say anything to others."
Li Mingqi calmed down his men before continuing.
"Junior brother Zheng Yi, to be honest, this is my first time here and I have no place to stay. It just so happens that the Qi family is good. I want to use this place. I don't think I will refuse!"
< br>His words seemed to be discussing, but his tone was more like an order, a tone of commanding a servant, warning Zheng Yi to give up this place quickly.
"Senior brother is really good at joking. This is the sect's territory. I'm just managing it temporarily. How can I let others do it?"
Zheng Yi looked into his eyes and smiled. Then he said calmly.
"What's more, the Qi family's surname is Qi, not Zheng. Senior brother asked the wrong person..."
