I use my daughter's body to cut down the rivers and lakes

Chapter 427 No Mistake

Another morning.

The bald-headed He Wentian rode a shiny black horse and walked at the front of the team.

Following closely behind him, the escorts guarded on both sides of the four carriages.

This is the cargo they are carrying on this trip.

"Liu Qi, what treasure do you think is in the box on this carriage?" Liu Nineteen sneaked up to Liu Qi and asked.

Liu Qi replied lazily: "We are enjoying delicious food and drinks along the way. Isn't it inappropriate to think about other people's things?"

Liu Nineteen pouted: "I'm just asking casually, why do you think so much?"

After saying that, Liu Nineteen's beautiful eyes couldn't help but look at the heavy box placed on the carriage in front.

The four boxes were placed on four carriages. Judging from the ruts left on the sand, the contents of the boxes should not be light.

In addition, since it was the chief escort He Wentian who went out personally, it was no wonder that Liu Shijiu would be curious.

"Ow..."

A shrill scream came from the sky.

Liu Qi raised his head slightly and saw a black shadow flashing through the air.

It was the big eagle named "Black Feather". It was said that He Wentian had rescued it personally when he was escorting a caravan. It has been with him ever since and can also serve as a high-altitude scout on weekdays.

Sure enough, Hei Yu landed directly on He Wentian's shoulder, shook his head and made "cooing" sounds in his ear for a while. He Wentian suddenly reined in his horse and raised his right hand. Seeing this, the bodyguard following behind him also reined in his horse and stopped.

Liu Qi and Liu Shijiu were walking at the end of the team. Seeing that everyone in front of them stopped, they also reined in their horses and stopped.

"Did something happen?" Liu Nineteen asked in a low voice nervously.

Liu Qi's expression remained unchanged, and he still looked lazy: "Why are you panicking? Even if the sky falls, there is He to hold it up."

At this time, Tianxiang, who was sitting in one of the carriages, saw the carriage stop and quickly jumped down, holding a water bottle in each hand, and trotted towards Liu Qi and the others.

After Liu Qi took the water bottle thrown by Tianxiang and took a sip, he saw He Wentian turning his horse around and walking slowly towards him.

"Captain He," Liu Qi gestured.

He Wentian said with a gloomy face: "Miss Liu, Hei Yu noticed something strange, I want to go over and take a look."

Liu Qi said calmly: "Captain He, please do as you please."

He Wentian just looked at Liu Qi silently without responding.

Liu Qi looked at He Wentian's solemn expression and understood what was going on. He then nodded and said, "In that case, I will go with Chief Escort He."

"I'll go too." Liu Shijiu on the side quickly said.

"You wait here with Tianxiang." Liu Qi rejected her mercilessly.

Liu Shijiu heard the urgency in Liu Qi's words, and nodded dejectedly.

Seeing that Liu Qi had made all the arrangements, He Wentian pulled the reins, rode out of the team, and headed towards the depths of the boundless desert.

Liu Qi also turned his horse around and followed closely behind.

The two men went over about two hills one after the other, and the escort team could no longer be seen behind them.

He Wentian, who was walking in front, suddenly said, "Miss Liu seems to be a little different from what was rumored."

"Oh." Liu Qi replied calmly, "What should Liu Qi be like in Chief Escort He's mind?"

He Wentian was silent for a moment, then answered truthfully: "Cold-blooded, rampant, and... lawless."

Liu Qi's eyes flickered when he heard this, and then he nodded in agreement and said, "That's quite appropriate."

He Wentian fell silent again.

The reason why he invited Liu Qi to come along was simply because he was worried that Liu Qi would do something bad to his men after he left.

"The bodyguards under my command are all rough people. I hope you will forgive me if their words have offended Miss Liu in any way." He Wentian said sincerely.

Liu Qi replied nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter, they have their own mouths, they can say whatever they want, just don't say it in front of me."

"Thank you." He Wentian replied concisely, and at the same time heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.

How could He Wentian not know the character of his bodyguards? They were usually careless with their words, and Liu Qi was so beautiful that it was inevitable that they would use some dirty words.

Therefore, during the two days of traveling with Liu Qi, He Wentian could not sleep or eat well. On the one hand, he had to be on guard against Liu Qi, and on the other hand, he had to keep his subordinates under control at all times.

In fact, the root cause was that He Wentian felt that Liu Qi's purpose was not pure and he did not simply want to take a ride.

In this slightly deserted atmosphere, the two finally arrived at their destination after climbing over a hill.

About three hundred steps away, a ruined earthen building appeared in their sight.

Liu Qiqiong wrinkled her nose slightly, already smelling the blood in the air.

Liu Qi looked at He Wentian with some confusion, wondering why He Wentian had to meddle in other people's business when this earth building was clearly not on the escort route.

He Wentian noticed someone looking at him from behind, and he glanced slightly to the side, seeing the confusion in Liu Qi's eyes, and then patiently explained: "This earthen building is a stronghold jointly built by those of us from the Central Plains who need to travel frequently to the Western Regions, so that we can have a place to stay on the road."

It turned out to be the case.

After He Wentian finished speaking, he spurred his horse forward and galloped away. Liu Qi was a little slower, but he still squeezed his legs against the horse's belly and caught up.

call out!call out!
A slight sound of breaking through the air was heard.

Liu Qi's eyes narrowed slightly, and saw that He Wentian in front of him suddenly had a golden light on his body, which was obviously the true energy of the Buddhist lineage.

Several arrows that flew towards him turned into powder the moment they touched He Wentian's Qi and dissipated in the wind and sand.

At the same time, He Wentian shouted loudly, flew into the air from the horse's back, and his body instantly turned into a golden light and smashed towards the earth building.

boom!
There was a loud bang.

"what--"

"Spare my life!"

"Sir, spare my life!"

……

Wailing sounds came from the earthen building one after another.

When Liu Qi rode his horse to the front of the earth building, He Wentian was patting the sand off his body and walking out of the gate of the earth building.

He was holding a person in his other hand. When he came in front of Liu Qi, he suddenly stretched out his hand and threw the person in front of Liu Qi.

"Don't kill me, don't kill me..."

The man curled up tightly on the ground, begging for mercy.

Liu Qi narrowed his eyes slightly and saw that the man was wearing the armor of the Da Qi soldiers.

"They came out from Yumen Pass." He Wentian said in a cold tone, "Looking at the powerful crossbows in their hands, they should be Lin Xingguo's personal guards."

After that, He Wentian stepped forward, picked up the soldier on the ground, and hung him up high, then asked angrily: "Where did Lin Xingguo go? Why did he, the commander of Yumen Pass, flee in the face of battle?"

He Wentian learned about the attack on Yumen Pass from Liu Qi. When he heard that Liu Qi had killed a dwarf holding a spear, he immediately guessed that the bandits who attacked Yumen Pass at night were the black sand bandits who roamed the desert.

Changfeng Escort Agency is one of the few escort agencies that dares to go to the Western Regions, so it has had many dealings with the Black Sand Bandits.

The soldier was obviously frightened. His legs kept tumbling in the air and he was still begging for mercy.

woohoo hoo...

Suddenly, a strong wind blew up, and countless yellow sands were swept up.

Liu Qi sat upright on the horse's back with his eyes slightly narrowed, then turned his head to look behind him. In the swirling yellow sand, even the sand dunes that the two of them had just climbed over were difficult to see clearly.

He Wentian also realized something. He threw the soldiers to the ground, then walked past Liu Qima without saying a word, stood in the front, and looked around with a serious look.

"Southwest direction." A voice came from my ear.

He Wentian's heart trembled and he suddenly turned his head to look towards the southwest, only to see a black line faintly appearing on the dark yellow horizon.

As He Wentian's pupils shrank, he suddenly said word by word: "Black Sand Bandits."

Soon the black line on the horizon turned into a row of black cavalry galloping towards them.

Just as He Wentian was gazing into the distance, Liu Qi suddenly jumped up from the horse's back behind him. As the true energy around her body surged out, the hem of her skirt fluttered wildly in the strong wind, like a blooming flower bud.

He Wentian sensed the astonishing momentum behind him. Just as he turned around, Liu Qi in the air had already flipped over and slapped him from above.

boom!
The huge palm shadow instantly fell on the ground, raising a cloud of sand, and Liu Qi was back on the horse.

She swept her cold eyes around and snorted, "Get out now!"

Bang!Bang!Bang!Bang!
Just as he finished speaking, the flying sand had not yet subsided when suddenly a column of sand shot out from the ground in all four directions, followed by four figures jumping out from the ground.

The four of them instantly leaped into the air and surrounded Liu Qi and He Wentian.

"Uh--"

But suddenly, a painful groan came from someone's mouth.

collapse! collapse! collapse! collapse!
He Wentian's expression changed slightly, and his pupils were instantly reflected red by the four balls of blood mist that exploded simultaneously.

A piece of scrap of clothing slowly fell at He Wentian's feet.

He looked down with a gloomy expression, then said solemnly, "They are the Sand Clan from the Black Desert. They are extremely good at hiding in the sand, and can even blend into the sand underground."

As He Wentian spoke, he couldn't help but glance sideways at Liu Qi, and the fear in his eyes disappeared in an instant.

He didn't notice the existence of these four people at all just now!
Liu Qi was still sitting on the horse with a calm demeanor. She pretended not to notice the fear that flashed across He Wentian's eyes, and then she gently reminded him, "Captain He, the Black Sand Bandits' friends are here."

He Wentian came to his senses instantly, then turned around and looked at a row of black cavalry that had appeared a hundred steps away. His hands hanging by his sides instantly clenched into fists.

Just when the black cavalry was about to reach the earth building, the team suddenly split up, and then an old man in colorful clothes ran out from them and came to the front of the earth building.

When the old man saw the two people in front of the earth building, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his cloudy eyes. But when his gaze fell on the two words "Changfeng" on He Wentian's chest, the murderous intent in his eyes disappeared instantly, and then a gentle smile appeared on his face: "So you are a friend of Changfeng Escort Agency, I am Wu Ji, the elder of the Sand Clan."

After saying this, Wu Ji, who claimed to be the elder of the Sand Tribe, suddenly looked at the ground, then frowned slightly, as if he had encountered some trouble.

At this time, Liu Qi said lazily: "Don't look for them, old man. Those four dirt crawlers have already gone to see your ancestors."

Wu Ji's face darkened when he heard that, and he suddenly looked at Liu Qi. However, after he looked at Liu Qi, a look of doubt appeared in his eyes.

Because he did not find any trace of true energy fluctuations from Liu Qi, she looked like a weak woman who had no knowledge of martial arts at all.

Do not!
It's impossible!

How could a woman appearing in the desert be a weak woman!

Wu Ji suddenly felt a chill in his heart, vaguely realizing that something was wrong, and quietly tightened his hand around the reins.

But at this moment, the woman's lazy but pleasant voice rang in his ears again: "It's too late to escape now."

"kill!"

Wu Ji raised his head suddenly and shouted loudly.

At the same time, the hand holding the reins pulled the dock hard, trying to change the direction.

……

But just after he shouted, the surroundings fell into deathly silence.

The bone-chilling coldness surged over him like a tide, and as Wu Ji's body trembled, he also noticed something unusual about the riders around him. He twisted his stiff neck and looked to both sides.

The knights, who were wrapped tightly, lay on their horses like sculptures, motionless, with only their trembling eyes showing the horror in their hearts.

Wu Ji finally realized something. He gritted his teeth to stop his teeth from chattering, then shifted his gaze to look at the woman on the horse.

Liu Qi lowered his head and was playing with his right hand.

The moment Wu Ji's gaze fell on her, her outstretched right hand clenched instantly.

boom!
The knights on horseback landed in unison.

Wu Ji was stunned on the spot for a moment, his pupils kept trembling, and he didn't dare to look at the black knight lying beside him.

But with just a casual glance, he saw a pair of eyes that were still open.

"Black Sand Bandits..." Liu Qi said slowly, "The dwarf who attacked me at Yumen Pass should be one of yours."

When Wu Ji heard this, his face suddenly changed, and he suddenly realized something.

"You are the one who killed the Third Master..."

laugh--

A cold light flashed across the old man's neck.

Bones.

The head rolled several times on the sand.

He Wentian looked solemnly at the head with wide-open eyes on the ground, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"Then I didn't kill him wrongly." Liu Qi said leisurely at this time.

Liu Qi turned her eyes and said softly to He Wentian, "I have always been vindictive. I am sorry to have embarrassed you, Chief Escort He."

He Wentian's expression changed for a moment, then he raised his head and wanted to say something to Liu Qi, but the words were taken back when they reached his lips.

Liu Qi looked at the confusion on He Wentian's face, and then said thoughtfully: "If it makes people unhappy, Chief Escort He, please be careful with your words."

He Wentian closed his mouth tightly.

It was at this time that He Wentian finally understood why Liu Qi felt that his evaluation of him was very appropriate.

She is indeed a cold-blooded, reckless and lawless woman!
When He Wentian thought of the strange methods of the Black Sand Bandits and the Sand Clan, he suddenly felt a slight headache.

Why did he want Liu Qi to go with him?

He Wentian asked a soul-searching question in his heart.

But then I couldn't help but smile bitterly in my heart.

Could he possibly refuse?
