My Endless Life
Chapter 249 Investigation
When Li Qi was dragged away by Li Xueren, he didn't know what the strange poison was, nor did he know whether to keep people or not.
But he knew that if he just left like that, it would be like watching the people in the town die.
Li Qi couldn't do that.
At least he couldn't turn a blind eye now.
So Li Qi persuaded Li Xueren to stay, and agreed with him that he would not easily show up and hide in the dark, while Li Xueren would go to the light to take charge of the overall situation.
Because he was worried that Li Xueren's second-grade cultivation would scare away the evil path hidden in the town, Li Qi specifically asked Li Xueren to suppress his cultivation and suppress it to the third-grade middle stage.
When Li Xueren left Qiqiao Villa, he was in the early third-grade stage. It was reasonable to be in the third-grade middle stage more than ten years later, and it would not arouse suspicion.
"Is your grandfather back?"
After hearing Li Xueren's self-introduction, Huang Wanmian looked at Li Qi.
Li Qi nodded slightly: "I just came back, and I encountered this kind of thing before I went home."
"So, the second-grade grandmaster who kidnapped you..."
"Didn't you guess it?"
Li Qi asked back.
Huang Wanmian was silent for a while and said: "It seems that the future of the martial arts world will change..."
"Yes."
"Then do you still want to go to Tianyi Valley?"
Huang Wanmian asked again.
She invited Li Qi to Tianyi Valley because Li Qi's talent was really good, and on the other hand, she wanted to protect Li Qi.
Now Qiqiao Villa has a second-grade grandmaster. As the ninth second-grade grandmaster in Daqi, Qiqiao Villa has the qualifications to compete for the top forces, and even the six major sects have to treat it with courtesy.
If they knew that Qiqiao Villa had a second-grade grandmaster before, the six major sects would never send people to put pressure on Qiqiao Villa.
So, with a grandfather who is a second-grade grandmaster, Li Qi no longer needs to go to Tianyi Valley for refuge, and Huang Wanmian asked this question.
She thought Li Qi would not go to Tianyi Valley, but Li Qi answered decisively:
"Go, why not?"
"?"
"Don't look at me like that, I want to go to Tianyi Valley to make something with your medicinal materials, so it's okay to be called a disciple of Tianyi Valley...Okay, let's not talk about this, I have other things to do, and I'll leave the matter of isolating the strange poison to you."
Li Qi said, and was about to disappear into the crowd.
Huang Wanmian asked: "Where are you going?"
"To find someone, there is more than one demon disciple of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect, I want to find that guy..."
Li Qi walked out while talking, and when he finished speaking, his figure also disappeared in the crowd.
Huang Wanmian looked at the direction he left, and his eyes turned slightly.
More than one person? From what he said, has he seen a disciple of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect?
...
Let's review it a little bit.
The strange poison appeared in Shili Inn yesterday evening.
Li Xueren and Li Qi met two poisoned Jianghu knights in the inn.
Judging from the way they were poisoned, someone must have put poison in their food.
One person ate more and was poisoned first, then the other person, and finally both died.
After seeing the two people being poisoned, Li Xueren took Li Qi to leave the town quickly, found a secluded corner and left directly from the air, but was finally intercepted by the old demon of bones, and then Li Qi met Wan Ping of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect.
The old demon of bones and Wan Ping had obviously been waiting outside the town for a long time. They had been lying in ambush there, waiting for Li Xueren to take Li Qi out.
So the person who poisoned in the inn was definitely not Wan Ping!
According to this inference, there are other disciples of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect who stayed in the city!
Of course, it is also possible that they are not disciples of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect, but Wan Ping gave the poison to other disciples of the Demon Sect, and then that person poisoned them.
But no matter what, this person must exist.
Li Qi wants to find the person who poisoned!
"But where will this person who poisoned... be?"
Li Qi wandered among the crowd, observing the surroundings.
First of all, it can be confirmed that the person who poisoned had lived in the Shili Inn, and may have even had an argument with the two people in the martial arts world.
Otherwise, if someone is randomly chosen to poison, it is obvious that ordinary people are more suitable than martial artists.
After all, martial artists have internal energy and detoxification pills, and have a certain resistance to poison.
Although the post-natal realm will definitely be poisoned, as long as they are prepared, they can delay some time.
If the Demon Sect really came with the mission of disrupting the Central Plains martial arts, it would be more convenient and faster to choose ordinary people to poison and let ordinary people spread the plague everywhere than to choose martial artists to poison.
So Li Qi guessed that the two unlucky people who were poisoned must have grievances with the people in the Demon Sect.
And it cannot be an old grudge, it should be a new grudge.
If this speculation is followed, the check-in list of the Shili Inn becomes very important.
So Li Qi needs a backup of the check-in list of the Shili Inn.
Fortunately, Li Qi saw the check-in list of the inn staff before leaving, and he remembered the names of those who stayed on it.
The only problem is that he only knows their names and their approximate titles in the martial arts world. There is no problem with those martial arts heroes with titles.
As for the martial arts heroes without titles, Li Qi does not know their origins. If he wants to find everyone here, he needs help from others.
"So you think of me now, right?"
A voice with a bad tone sounded in front of Li Qi.
At the corner of the alley, Li Qiao, who was also disguised, was leaning against the wall of the alley, looking at Li Qi with resentment.
Seeing Li Qiao, Li Qi showed a smile on his face:
"After all, you are my sister. Apart from my parents, you are the only one who can help me."
"Tch, you just know how to say nice things!" Li Qiao muttered dissatisfiedly, and after a while he spread his hands helplessly and said: "But there is no other way, who asked me to be your younger brother."
As she spoke, she walked up to Li Qi and asked, "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
"Help me investigate the people on the inn's list."
"The disciples of the Villa have already done this work. It won't take long to complete the investigation... Are there any more?"
"And..." Li Qi recalled the names on the list, thought for a moment and said to Li Qiao: "...Help me check two people, and by the way, check for me whether anyone has had conflicts with these people these days."
As Li Qi spoke, he named two people to Li Qiao.
And these two names are the two unlucky guys who died of poisoning yesterday.
…
Li Xueren is sitting in the main seat of Qiqiao Villa.
Below are Li Wenxin and his wife Zheng Qiuqing, as well as Zhang Yuan from Longwu Pavilion, Ling Ming from Qianfo Temple, and... Zhong Yunxin from Xueyun Sword Sect.
The three masters who did not belong to Qiqiao Villa looked at each other. Zhang Yuan and Liao Ming looked at each other, then turned to look at Zhong Yunxin.
Zhong Yunxin's expression remained unchanged and he still drank tea calmly, but Li Wenxin, on the other hand, was a little restless.
Seeing the silence in the venue, Li Wenxin finally couldn't help but said:
"…father……"
"Don't call me dad, I don't have a son like you!"
"..."
Being scolded by Li Xueren, Li Wenxin immediately fell silent.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Li Xueren was even more unhappy. After glaring at him, he looked at Zheng Qiuqing who was beside Li Wenxin.
Zheng Qiuqing sat obediently next to Li Wenxin. When she saw Li Xueren's eyes falling on her, she saluted Li Xueren in a neither humble nor overbearing manner and said softly:
"I have met my father."
"You changed your mind very quickly, but did I ask you to call me father?"
Li Xueren's attitude was not very good.
Zheng Qiuqing's expression did not change when she heard this, but she just lowered her head. Upon seeing this, Li Wenxin mustered up the courage and said:
"Dad, it's been more than ten years. Qiao'er and Qi'er have grown up. If you continue to hold on to the past, won't you..."
"Hmph! She just needs to gain some energy and give birth to Qi'er for the Li family, otherwise I will kick her out today, believe it or not!"
Li Xueren's tone was very bad, and he showed no mercy to Zheng Qiuqing in front of outsiders.
The atmosphere in the room was very stiff. In the end, it was Zhong Yunxin who spoke, which eased the stiff atmosphere:
"Senior Li, there is no need to mention the past. Senior invited me here, and I must not have asked me to come here to listen to the filial piety of the parents of your village. I already know about the plague at the foot of the mountain, senior, let's get down to business first."
As soon as Zhong Yunxin spoke, Li Xueren's expression softened immediately.
He nodded to Zhong Yunxin, and then said:
"Niece Yun Xin is right, I came to you all to discuss the plague.
"After investigation by the disciples of the villa, the plague has begun to spread in the town, and Huang Fairy has confirmed that this poison is the famous strange poison 'leaving no one behind' decades ago.
"I think you all should know how powerful this poison is, but I, a small sect of Kit Kat Villa, can't do anything to deal with such strange poisons, so I hope that all the sects can lend a helping hand to our village. I am very grateful."
Li Xueren handed over to several people present.
Zhang Yuan of Longwu Pavilion was the first to stand up and said:
"The devil's thieves are completely inhumane and actually poisoned ordinary people. Such behavior is unacceptable! This pavilion will definitely lend a helping hand to help your village eliminate the devil! But..."
At this point, Zhang Yuan changed the subject again: "...After all, our sect is not a sect that started out as pharmacology, so at most it can only help your village maintain order. If you want to solve the plague, I am afraid that you will need Master Ming from Qianfo Temple. Take action with Huang Xianzi from Tianyi Valley."
"Amitabha." As soon as Zhang Yuan finished speaking, Ming Ming recited the Buddha's name: "I can't do anything about such a strange poison. Maybe... the masters of Tianyi Valley can do something about it."
Seeing the two powerful masters shirk each other, Li Xueren sneered in his heart, but still smiled on the surface:
"Even if it's just to help maintain order, everyone at Kit Kat Villa will be grateful."
Li Xueren gave Qianfo Temple and Longwu Pavilion face, but Zhong Yunxin did not.
Seeing the two masters shirk each other, Zhong Yunxin snorted coldly:
"What are you pretending to be? Aren't you just not wanting to contribute?"
"..."
Zhang Yuan and Liao Ming were both silent. Zhong Yunxin then said:
"Senior Li, although our Xueyun Sword Sect is relatively far away and has nothing to offer, I have a 'Xueyun Qingxin Pill' here. If it is crushed and disintegrated, it may have an effect on the plague poison." I hope Senior Li will accept the help."
Zhong Yunxin said, took out a small porcelain jade bottle from his arms and handed it to Li Xueren.
Li Xueren was shocked when he saw this, and said quickly: "Niece Yun Xin, our entire villa has been sorry for you, so how can we have the embarrassment to accept your things now?"
"Senior Li, there is no need to mention the past. I gave this pill to the people of the villa, so just accept it."
Zhong Yunxin took the lead, Zhang Yuan and Liao Ming looked a little embarrassed, but they each took out the elixir.
Zhang Yuan said: "Elder Zhong's words reminded me that although my Longwu Pavilion is not good at alchemy, it also has special elixirs. This 'Dragon Blood Pill' will be donated to the villa..."
"Well... I am also willing to give a Hundred Years Great Rejuvenation Pill. I hope that the old owner Li will accept it."
Liao Ming also followed suit.
