Burning the corpses and burying them is an effective measure to prevent the emergence of evil spirits. Lu Qiheng is obviously aware of this, but he chose the most brutal method - directly using the courtyard as a trap, and filling it with soil after burning, so that it can be destroyed in the shortest possible time. Eliminate hidden dangers of evil spirits within a short period of time.

"Snapped!"

Luo lightly punched the table.

Ever since Luo Tang and Luo Changtian died, her mood hadn't fluctuated so violently for a long time.

"What about the other alchemists from the Privy Council? Didn't anyone oppose him? And the defeated Youzhou Army—where did they go!?"

Luo Zhisheng also showed a look of resentment, "Lu Qiheng's current subordinates are the original Privy Council of Qianren City. And the Youzhou Army...has become robbers who plunder everywhere."

Chapter 654 "I'll Take Care of You"

So far, Luo Qingqing has fully understood what she wants to do.

"It's not a coincidence that you appeared outside the Luo family mansion, right?"

"Yes." Luo Zhisheng admitted, "Since learning of the fiasco of the Privy Mansion, everyone has wondered whether those alchemists of the Luo family will come back again. If they really arrive at Qianren City, they will find that the mansion has been abandoned, and they cannot find it." What should the Zong family do? So those who are still in the city will secretly pay attention to the situation of the mansion, and if any Luo family members come back, we can at least tell them that the Luo family is still there!"

Speaking of this, his voice became a lot more excited, "But I didn't expect to see you outside the fence! Miss Qingqing, at that time you were the envy of all the people in Youzhou, even I could only Behold your splendor from afar."

"That's all in the past." Luo gently touched his eye sockets.

"By the way..." Luo Zhisheng hesitated for a while, then heaved a sigh of relief and said, "I heard...you were expelled from the Luo family by Master Luo Wuji?"

"Indeed."

"You must have suffered a lot along the way." He looked at Luo Weiwei, his eyes resting on her eyes and cheeks, "If it weren't for that, your eyes wouldn't have become like this. I can imagine It can be seen that not being able to see clearly what is around is a severe blow to a warrior, not to mention precise casting, even drawing talismans is difficult..."

Luo lightly blinked involuntarily, "No, it's okay after you get used to it—"

"I know you have to be strong, that's how it was in the past!" Luo Zhisheng interrupted her, "but there's no need to force it now, since you will return to Qianren City, it means that you are tired of wandering, right? Luo Wuji The meaning of this is not the same as that of the Zong family. Everyone will definitely accept you again, I can assure you. Although the Luo family has plummeted, they still have a lot of property in the city, and they have accumulated a lot of money in secret. Much better to wander outside!"

Having said that, he couldn't help but propped himself up, leaned over and said softly to Luo, "There's nothing to worry about, even if the family has doubts, I can take good care of you by myself!"

The latter looked at him for a long time before shaking his head slightly, "I appreciate your kindness."

"Gently girl..."

"The purpose of my coming to Youzhou is not what you think, but I'm still very glad that you can explain everything to me." Luo gently put on the blindfold again, "Since the Luo family still has spare power, maybe we can try to rebuild Qianren City , to take in the refugees from outside the city and protect them from robbers. Even if there is no one in the clan who is angry, it may not be impossible."

"What are you talking about?" Luo Zhisheng couldn't understand, "City Lord Lu is in control of the whole city now! If the Luo family came forward to accept the refugees, wouldn't they deliberately hand over the handle to the other party?"

"You also said it's now." Luo stood up lightly and walked towards the door, "Soon, he will no longer be the city lord."

"..." Luo Zhisheng was stunned.

He found that he could not understand the meaning of the other party at all.

Lu Qiheng will soon no longer be the lord of the city?

Who will the mayor be?

The woman in front of her is just a piece of floating duckweed, so what can she know?

"Luo Qingqing, where are you going?" Luo Zhisheng subconsciously wanted to stop him, but his body still couldn't take that step.

Even if he is from the clan, he still lacks the courage to approach the most outstanding young generation in Youzhou.

Even though she is scarred and her light is gone.

"Buy some food for the children." Luo said softly and walked out of the room.

child, child?

Luo Zhisheng stayed where he was.

Luo Qingqing is already married, does she have any children?

……

"Here, today's food." Luo gently handed the heavy cloth bag to Li Le's hand, "Let's share it with everyone."

"You actually came back..." the latter said in disbelief.And after opening the cloth bag, he found that there were quite a lot of pancakes inside, much more than everyone needed.

"Are there any other kids around? Give them points too."

"Are you serious?" Li Le frowned. "Big sister, did you spend a lot of money? If you attract too many people's attention, you may cause trouble."

It did cost a lot.Luo Qingqing said in her heart that she searched for a long time in the city before she found a shop that was open to sell grain, and the price had risen to more than three times the usual price.Those figures slumped on the side of the street are probably inseparable from the soaring price of food.Obviously, Qianren City is not short of food, especially for the preparation of Shenzhou, the grain depot should be full, even if there is no output from the farmland for a year, it can still meet the needs of the residents in the city.

There is no doubt that this is just another way for the new city lord to make money.

"It doesn't matter. Even if the troubles don't come to me, I will take the initiative to find them."

Li Le suddenly shivered.

The woman in front of her seemed to be a little different from before.

Although there was only a momentary difference, he felt that the other party was serious when he said this.

"Big sister... who the hell are you?"

"It's just an ordinary resident from Jinxia." Luo replied softly.

……

When night fell over the land, she quietly left the children's house.

There was a bonfire on the city wall, and patrolling guards could still be seen vaguely, but their marking positions were limited to the perimeter of the city gate, far from being well-guarded.

It is conceivable that in order to stabilize his position, Lu Qiheng also replaced the key positions of the original city guards. These people mainly monitored the homeless people outside the city and possible robbers, rather than a close war.

Luo gently found a dead-end area away from the gate of the city, and summoned the Dragon Scale Sword.

Then she turned the dragon scales upside down to form a floating ladder, and stepped up herself, climbing in the air like a dragonfly on water.The dragon scales will disappear briefly after bearing the weight, but the blink of an eye is enough time for her to go down the "ladder".

In this way, she easily climbed over the several feet high city wall, and sneaked into Qianren City under the cover of night.

Luo Qingqing had already found out Lu Qiheng's residence during the day.

Although he is an alchemist sent by Gyeonggi, he has no habit of living in the lobby of the Privy Council.The highland house in the center of the city is where he sings every night.This place was originally a hillside, and the terrain was slightly raised. Standing on the attic, you can see most of Qianren City.However, Lu Qiheng still seemed worried about his own safety. He not only added a new wall at the bottom of the slope, but also drove out other city residents who lived here.

This hillside seems to have become the most heavily guarded area in Qianren City. From the bottom of the slope to the courtyard wall at the top, burning torches can be seen everywhere.There were fixed and secret whistles on both sides of the road. Near the mansion, Luo Qingnian also noticed signs of activity by the aura-sensing people.

Unfortunately, in her field of vision, these defensive measures are useless.She can confirm the location of each sentry point at a glance through the flow of Qi, and then choose a route that will never be discovered to pass through.

In less than half an hour, she had already stepped on the floor of the city lord's mansion.

Chapter 655 Golden Wings

Luo Qingqing doesn't need to work hard to find the target, because the melodious piano music in the hall and the mixed laughter and joy of men and women have already shown everything.

There is a feast going on here.

She climbed up to the roof beam and looked through the high window, only to see the bright lights in the hall, the cups and cups intertwined, which formed a stark contrast with the deserted scene outside Qianren City.

And half of the attendees were wearing alchemist robes of the Privy Council, ranging in rank from the front to the heart.The other half looked either rich or expensive, and nine out of ten were representatives of local aristocratic families and officials who served in the Privy Council.

Sitting at the head of the long table was a robust man in his forties.He was wearing a jade crown and a brocade robe with auspicious clouds and golden dragons embroidered on it. He was undoubtedly Lu Qiheng himself.

"Lord Lu, you guessed right. General Sun has no intention of surrendering to us at all. He thinks that he is the highest leader of the Qianren Privy Council."

"I heard that they have already occupied three small towns in the northwest and are recruiting soldiers. I'm afraid this is not good news for us."

"Hmph, what's the matter of recruiting soldiers and buying horses? It's just an opportunity to recruit young men. Mr. Gao, you don't think they have the courage to attack Qianren City, do you? I think it's true to eliminate rebellion and fatten yourself. If it's not the case, There won’t be so many refugees flocking to Qianren City.”

"Hahaha... Lao Ma is right, Mr. Gao, the Privy Council is not a yamen, and you will be timid before a battle. Everything depends on strength. Qianren City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the alchemists are on our side. , what will a group of defeated generals use to attack the city?"

The man named Mr. Gao showed obvious embarrassment, "I'm just in case..."

"Okay, Gao Gongcao is also concerned about the safety of my city, you don't have to tease him like this." Lu Qiheng finally said, "I know Sun Xiaoyi very well, and I am not absolutely sure that he will not come to fight Qianren City What's more, not only Youzhou was defeated, and more than one general escaped, so he has to be wary of other people's movements."

"My lord is right!" Everyone said in unison.

"But we are good at defending but not good at attacking. This field may belong to the other party. Therefore, Qianren City has to make preparations for the rainy day, and prepare enough food and grass by itself, so as to prevent the defeated army from besieging the city and cutting off the source." Lu Qiheng stroked his beard and said, "Honestly Said, I am quite grateful to General Gao, who drove many refugees to my place, otherwise it would be difficult to always eat gruel..."

Having said that, he drank the wine in his glass, raised his head and laughed.

There was a burst of echoing laughter in the lobby soon.

It's just that compared to the previous compliments, everyone's expressions are obviously stiffer this time.

"Ahem...Master Lu, I also heard a piece of news." After a while, another person mentioned, "It seems that a group of believers who claim to be the Kaitian Salvation Sect have appeared in the southwest, and they are recruiting foolish people in various villages. There seem to be more and more of them."

"I've heard this too. They claim that as long as they join the Salvation Cult, they will definitely have enough to eat. And... these people also said that they want to come to Qianren City."

"Hmph, will you have food if you join?" Lu Qiheng sneered, "For the battle of Shenzhou, few fields have been sown this year, and a short harvest is almost inevitable. Those idiots thought that shouting slogans, food Can it just fall from the sky? This kind of sect doesn’t matter at all, and when there are too many people, it will naturally drag itself down.”

He refilled the wine and raised the wine glass to his subordinates, "Everyone can rest assured, it may take three years at the earliest, or five years at the longest, and Qixing will take over everything in Qiguo sooner or later. And we who own a city will definitely be treated favorably." , as long as everyone works together to hold Qianren City in their hands, the real glory and wealth will naturally be waiting for everyone at that moment!"

"Willing to serve Lord Lu!" The people in the lobby also raised their glasses.

However, at this moment, a cold voice came in.

"You can't wait until then."

"Who—" Lu Qiheng just asked, a round of golden light penetrated from behind the wall, and instantly shone into the lobby where the dinner was held.

All those who were illuminated were spurted with blood and screamed incessantly.

"Ah!" The dancer who accompanied the wine turned pale with fright, and scrambled and hid in all directions, but the light seemed to be spiritual, avoiding all the attendants impartially.

No, that's not light, but some kind of very fast, very thin flying blade!Lu Qiheng suddenly realized—an enemy is coming to his door!

"The enemy is behind the wall, kill him!"

"Gen surgery is back, dragon and snake bite!" A alchemist opened his palms, made a snake shape, and clasped them towards the source of light.

I saw a stone pillar appear out of thin air, and turned into a bloody mouth, gnawing at the wall of the lobby!

With a bang, a big hole was broken in the wooden wall in an instant.

But it didn't bite into anything other than splintered wall panels.

On the contrary, another ray of golden light shot out from the flying smoke, piercing the chest of the caster precisely!

"Xu Xiucai, take everyone out of here!" Lu Qiheng shouted.

The enemy is dark and we are clear, and the number of people is unknown. It is definitely not a good choice to fight here.There is an elite army stationed at the east end of the house, and it is more suitable for destroying the enemy with a strong bow and crossbow!

"Understood." The alchemist nicknamed Xiucai threw out a piece of tripe, "Bring the technique to shame, swallow the sky!"

A dark curtain suddenly rose from the floor of the lobby, as if to envelop everyone in it.But the next moment, the black curtain dissipated like a cloud of smoke and disappeared without a trace.

"My technique...was cut off..." Xu Xiucai showed a look of astonishment.

Before he could do it again, the fast-moving sharp blade had already cut his neck.

"Leaving art for Yin, detonate!"

"Idiot, don't use the Li technique here!"

"Return of Shock Technique—ah——"

"This guy—something's wrong—"

The banquet hall was completely in chaos. Lu Qiheng could only see a figure swaying in the smoke, but he couldn't see where the other party was.

And the screams one after another sounded like they were coming from his own subordinates. So far, the enemy still seems to be unharmed!

How can this be?

In order to conquer the third princess of Jinxia, ​​the Privy Council indeed transferred all the powerful alchemists to Shenzhou, but the people under him tried their best and asked, how could they not kill even one enemy?

In less than a few tens of breaths, the bubbling room gradually subsided.

The flying smoke and dust also dissipated, and a slender figure in white linen clothes appeared in the center of the lobby.

Lu Qiheng's eyes widened in shock.

He found that there were no so-called large numbers of enemies at all, and there was only one intruder who disrupted the mansion from beginning to end!

It was a woman with cloudy white pupils, and six golden sharp blades floated slowly behind her, like spread wings.

Chapter 656 Opening the Heavens to Save the World

This guy... he has an impression!

Lu Qiheng thought for a while, and a name popped up in his mind—the betrayer who was wanted by the Privy Council because he robbed the prison in Gyeonggi and then joined Jinxia's party, the former genius of Youzhou, Luo Qingqing!

Considering that this person is extremely talented, his grade should be at the level of asking, at most he can only test the front, so why can he quietly enter the core area of ​​Qianren City by himself, and slaughter his alchemists one by one like chickens? ?

Is this reasonable! ?

And the golden sword blade on the opponent's back, which is as thin as a cicada's wing, what kind of technique is it?

By the way...it seems to be mentioned in the arrest warrant that if Luo Qingqing is found, it should be reported to Gyeonggi Prefecture immediately.
