"Eldest … Eldest Miss …"
Lin Si turned around and looked at Dugu Yun 'er with a pale face. He was filled with regret. Why didn't he see Dugu Yun' er here?
"Did Second Aunt ask you to come here to show off? Because Cousin Ling Feng is my mother's nephew? "
Dugu Yun 'er was not stupid. From the moment she saw Xiao Tao, she knew that this matter was not that simple. Xiao Tao was originally a servant of the second branch. If the Dugu Residence wanted to arrange a servant for Ning Qi, they would definitely give priority to the first branch. After all, they were on the same side. However, it was Xiao Tao from the second branch. Later on, Lin Si even whipped Xiao Tao with a bamboo stick. All of this was deliberately done for others to see.
!
"Eldest Miss, you've misunderstood. It's Xiaotao who doesn't know her place and ate the food of her master …"
Lin Si quickly got up and said in a low voice.
"Xiao Tao will stay. You can go back to the second branch. If Second Aunt has any objections, tell her to look for my mother."
Dugu Yun 'er said lightly.
"This …"
Lin Si hesitated for a moment. Seeing that Dugu Yun 'er was frowning, he quickly nodded and left with his men.
"Xiao Tao, you must have been tortured by this person in the second branch, right?"
Ning Qi looked at Lin Si's panicked back and said lightly.
"It's all because of Xiao Tao's fault that Deacon Lin punished her …"
Xiao Tao looked at Dugu Yun 'er with some fear and said in a low voice. Dugu Yun 'er walked to Ning Qi and sighed, "This girl is a distant cousin of Second Aunt. However, her family may have had a grudge with Second Aunt. Later on, her family suffered a disaster and many people died, so she came to the Dugu Residence to seek refuge with Second Aunt. I have seen Lin Si teach her a lesson several times.
But because of Second Aunt, I can't say anything. "
Xiao Tao lowered her head even more.
"Then from now on, Xiao Tao will serve me here. You don't need to go back to the second branch."
Ning Qi smiled.
"Since Cousin Brother has spoken, Mother will definitely talk to Second Concubine personally. If it was before today, it might not be possible. But Cousin Brother, you are so skilled in martial arts that even Youngest Uncle is no match for you. If Second Concubine knows about it, she will definitely not dare to make any trouble!"
Dugu Yun 'er said with a smile.
Xiao Tao's expression fluctuated as she heard this. She was pleasantly surprised, but also worried.
"It's still early. Why don't we take a walk around Beijing?"
Ning Qi laughed.
"Okay, okay! I've wanted to say it for a long time! "
Dugu Yun 'er's eyes lit up.
…
Du Gumo's study.
"You said that Nangong Lingfeng defeated Xiang Jin with a single palm strike?"
Du Gumo's expression changed as he stared at Tie Hu.
Tie Hu nodded and cupped his hands, saying, "This matter is absolutely true. I saw it with my own eyes. Brother Xiang Jin's arms are broken. This injury cannot be delayed for too long. Daren, please make a decision."
"Take my letter with you and invite Doctor Zhuge to our house to treat Xiang Jin personally."
Du Gumo pondered for a few moments before writing a letter and handing it to Tie Hu.
Tie Hu received the letter and immediately turned to leave.
"Interesting. Nangong Lingfeng, who is neither skilled in literature nor in martial arts, has actually received Nangong Xiaotian's true teachings and trained the Mountain Splitting Palm to such a level. Even Xiang Jin is no match for him … Could the Nangong Clan's mishap be related to this child? This child's demeanor doesn't seem quite right. "
Du Gumo seemed to be talking to himself.
Right at this moment, a figure suddenly walked out from the darkness of the study. Before this, even Tie Hu had not noticed his existence. It was an extremely ordinary-looking young man, but his eyes shone with a profound light and his breath was long and steady. He was much stronger than General Zhao and the others!
"You feel that this child is suspicious? Do you want me to test him? "
The young man said calmly.
"There's no need to test him. No matter how strong this child is, how can he be a match for you Soul Devourers? How is it? Has there been any news from your master? The Ninth Prince is determined to obtain the Dark Soul Record. It's getting late. I will obtain the Dark Soul Record tonight! "
Du Gumo glanced at the young man and said calmly.
"Boss will not fail. In the Yan Kingdom, who can be a match for boss?"
The young man laughed coldly.
"I hope so."
Du Gumo said calmly.
… …
As the capital of the Yan Kingdom, Yan Jing was incomparably prosperous. The streets were spread out in all directions. Even the narrowest road could allow eight carriages to pass side by side!
Xiao Tao seemed to rarely leave the Dugu Residence. Although she followed closely behind Ning Qi and Dugu Yun 'er, her eyes were constantly looking around at all kinds of novelties.
"Yun 'er!"
The voice came from a nine-story restaurant behind the three of them. There were a few heads leaning against the window, waving at Dugu Yun 'er.
"Cousin Ling Feng, let's go up and have a seat?"
Dugu Yun 'er said with a smile.
"Your friends?"
Ning Qi smiled.
"Cousin Ling Feng, you actually know them too. We used to play together when we were young!"
Dugu Yun 'er said with a smile.
"Then let's go up and have a seat."
Ning Qi smiled and nodded. There were many people who practiced martial arts in Yan Jing, but there was not a single Soul Devourer expert. It seemed that the boss of Mount Heng was right. In this world, not only were there few Spirit Level experts, but even Soul Devourers were pitifully few. It was a pity that the clues given by Mysterious Sword Elder were too little.
This place didn't tell him where to find him! In the restaurant, in an elegant private room, sat the group of men and women he met at the city gate. They greeted Ning Qi with a smile and talked about their childhood. However, Ning Qi naturally didn't know about those things. He just smiled and nodded. In the eyes of these young masters and ladies, it was obvious that Ning Qi was
She became a little silly.
At this time, a young master surnamed Lin suddenly said, "My father has already gone to the Peach Blossom Path to catch the Heng Mountain Bandits. If we can catch them this time, we'll have made a great contribution!"
"The Heng Mountain Bandits are elusive. How could they be caught so easily? Now, I am curious as to which guys are heading to the Peach Blossom Path today."
Another young master said with a smile.
At this moment, the sound of horse hooves could be heard from outside, as if a group of soldiers were galloping through the downtown area of Beijing. Everyone quickly looked over curiously.
In the end, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air!
"Lin Xi, isn't that your father?"
"Incredible! Why are there so many corpses? "
"Eh! Bandits of Mount Heng? Are the corpses of the Heng Mountain Bandits on the cart? "
"But who are the corpses at the back?"
Lin Fengxian rode his horse and galloped toward the imperial city with a grave expression. Behind him were a group of soldiers and more than ten carts full of corpses!
"The corpses at the back are probably the people who died in the Peach Blossom Path this time."
Dugu Yun 'er said with lingering fear, "Fortunately, we didn't go for an outing in the Peach Blossom Path today!"
"My father really killed the Heng Mountain Bandits! Hahaha! Everyone, I'm going to leave first! Let's meet again next time! "
Lin Xi laughed loudly in happiness, quickly leaving.
He walked so fast that he almost bumped into someone when he left. That person glanced at Lin Xi indifferently and walked into the private room. He looked around and finally fixed his eyes on Ning Qi.
"Who are you?"
