Starting boy Ma Kongqun

Chapter 296: Turning against guests, no danger at all

Ma Ji got on his horse outside the gate of Zongfu and walked out of the alley, his drunkenness dissipated in an instant.

While he trusted the reins and let the "Dark Lord", an old horse that knew the way, carry him home, he also looked towards Zong Zimei's mysterious wife and concubine.

Zong Zimei probably had no idea about Dian Dang's small movements that seemed to be probing while performing the dance, but it is hard to say whether the sister-in-law Tang Heng knew about it, or whether it was because of her instruction.

But he has nothing to do with her, so what is her purpose in doing this?
Just when I was puzzled, a man suddenly landed in front of the horse in the air. He just whispered "Aji!" and then fell to the ground unconscious.

Although the visitor was dressed in black and masked, Ma Ji had recognized Lin Jin's voice from the shout. His expression changed slightly, and a "demon refining pot" appeared out of thin air in his hand. He took her into it with a slight shake, and then With a flick of her sleeves, a gentle force wiped away the traces she left on the ground.

After doing all this in an instant, he returned to his leisurely state. The smart guy "Dark Lord" also understood his thoughts and still walked forward leisurely.

After just a few steps, there was a slight sound of wind in the air, and two people landed from the sky and blocked the way in front of the horse.

Ma Ji looked wary and asked, "Who are you?"

Opposite him is a monk with blue eyes and curly beard, wearing a colorful robe and holding a black alms bowl in his right hand that seems to be made of iron; the other is a military attache in his forties with a stern face, evil eyes and soft armor. A long knife hangs from the waist.

He and Monk Hu chased the man in black who had just sneaked into the Governor's Mansion with unknown intentions. The man in black disappeared out of thin air, and Ma Ji happened to appear again. Regardless of whether the two were related or not, according to his past acting style, it was The person must be captured and tortured carefully. Even if the person is caught wrongly, it will only be bad luck for the other party.

After pondering for a moment, Pei Guangping had no choice but to ask in a deep voice: "Just now, an assassin sneaked into the Governor's Mansion, and I and Master Jiumoda are chasing after me. Since you happened to pass by here, have you ever seen a man in black? "

Seeing that he did not kneel down and proclaimed himself a student, Pei Guangping frowned slightly and asked, "Are you famous?"

But Ma Ji used this special identity and had Qiao Yun as his backer, so he didn't dare to act rashly.

The military attache raised his right hand, displayed a token in front of Ma Ji, and said coldly: "I, the Governor of South Zhili, Mr. Liao, the personal guard commander and the fifth-rank Qianhu Pei Guangping, have something to ask you now. Please dismount immediately. !”

Ma Ji was startled for a moment, then relaxed his guard a little. After dismounting from his horse, he bowed and said, "Pei Qianhu, please tell me everything I know."

Pei Guangping immediately knew that tonight's matter was a bit tricky.

He was a close confidant of Liao En, Governor of Southern Zhili. Not only did he know that Ma Ji and other outstanding students from Jiangnan entered Nanjian to study, but he also knew that the new Nanjian Jijiu Master Qiao who facilitated this incident was the current Long'an Emperor Li Hui. Xinchen, even his own governor and other frontier officials are not easy to provoke.

Hearing the name "Jiumoda", Ma Ji glanced at the Hu monk without any trace, then shook his head and said a little apologetically: "The student just went to a classmate's house as a guest and drank a few too many A glass of wine, I was a little confused along the way, and I really didn’t pay attention.”

Ma Ji answered truthfully: "The student is a candidate for Qiantang County in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. He was recruited by Mr. Qiao Yun, the Master of the Imperial Academy of Yingtian, to come to Yingtian to further his studies and make preparations for the coming spring."

Pei Guangping also smelled the smell of alcohol on his body, and he already believed it. He was hesitating whether to let Ma Ji go and look for other clues.

At this time, Jiumoda took a step forward and said, "Pei Qianhu, I still have something to ask this young master."

Pei Guangping turned to look at him and took a step aside. Jiumoda took another step forward, saluted Ma Ji, and asked with a smile: "Master Ma, this matter is of great importance. Please think about it carefully. Did you really find nothing just now?"

His words became increasingly erratic, and by the end he was barely audible.

Pei Guangping frowned when he saw that he actually used the soul-obsessing technique on Ma Ji, but when he saw that there was no one else nearby, he did not stop him.

Ma Ji's eyes seemed to gradually lose their luster, but he subconsciously replied: "I really don't... how dare you, demon monk!"

Only halfway through his words, a bright light suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he seemed to have regained his consciousness in an instant. The answer in his mouth turned into a furious curse, and the "Han Lu Dao" that Han Qi gave him appeared out of thin air in his hand. Using the "Jinghong Transformation" of the "Huntian Fighting Victory Method", he slashed the neck of Jiumutuo with great speed.

Even though Jiumoda had six senses, and his cultivation level was comparable to that of a fourth-grade warrior or monk, he almost suffered a big loss when he was caught off guard by Ma Ji's extremely fast sword attack without any warning.

Finally, after he opened his sixth consciousness, his spiritual sense was the sharpest. He sensed a hint of crisis and followed the guidance of his spiritual sense to change his body. His body disappeared and reappeared several feet away, and he was able to avoid being stabbed in the head by the owl. It was a disaster, but it still left a faint scar on the throat.

"Qiang!"

Pei Guangping unsheathed his long sword and held Ma Ji's long sword, which still wanted to pursue Jiumu Tuo. He was clearly in the same fifth-level martial arts refining realm as Ma Ji.

Ma Ji withdrew his sword and stepped away. He put the sword in front of him in a guarded manner and said coldly: "Pei Qianhu, according to the laws of Dayu, anyone who uses magic to confuse officials will be immediately beheaded. The student's status is equivalent to that of an eighth-rank official. , are you going to protect this alien monk who used the soul-stirring demon method on me?"

Pei Guangping also looked solemn and asked: "Before you investigate Master Jiumoda's responsibility, you should first explain why he has martial arts!"

Ma Ji laughed angrily: "My father, Ma Yao, also known as Zhiyuan, was a lieutenant under Pinglubo Wang Lie in his early years. Now he is a guest minister of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang branch of the Huntian Supervisory Academy. Why shouldn't students learn the martial arts passed down from their families?"

Pei Guangping suddenly changed his color, but Pinglubo Wang Lie just gave up. Now, although he has a heavy army in the north to resist the grassland barbarians, he still can't control the affairs of South Zhili, but the "Huntian Supervisory Yuan" is really untouchable. hornet's nest.

The "Huntian Supervisory Yuan" has a transcendent status. Although it is restricted by the Great Yu ancestral system and never interferes in court and military affairs, it has the right to interfere in all matters related to extraordinary things. Now Kumaratus is trying to use magic to confuse a person. The matter of the Juren being induced to confess was definitely within the scope of the "Huntian Supervisory Yuan"'s interference, especially since this Juren was a disciple of the "Huntian Supervisory Yuan".

Once Ma Ji reveals this matter, there is a high possibility that Kumartuo, the eminent monk recently recruited by his governor, will go to the "Forbidden Demon Prison" or even the "Demon Slaying Platform" of the "Huntian Supervisory Authority".

The expression on his face suddenly changed. Pei Guangping put the long sword into the sheath. At the same time, he put away his original cold face and replaced it with an apologetic smile: "Mr. Ma, this matter is completely due to a misunderstanding. This Master Jiumoda will not be here for a long time." I just came to Dayu from the Western Regions, and I don’t know much about Dayu’s laws. He was eager to pursue the thief just now, and he made a mistake because of his confusion. Please don’t get along with him."

Ma Ji looked at Jumoda opposite him, who had an ugly face but did not speak, with hesitation on his face. After a while, he finally snorted and asked, "Since Pei Qianhu said it was a misunderstanding, can I leave now? "

Pei Guangping breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Of course, sir, please do it."

Ma Ji no longer paid attention to the two of them, put away the long knife and flew onto his horse. The "Dark Lord" let out a neigh that seemed to be mocking, spread his hooves and galloped away.
