I picked up a cloth shoe with a knife and walked into the house. Prince Ninth saw me coming back with a shoe and immediately said in disgust: "You threw that thing away. Isn't it disgusting?"
Only then did I realize: "My lord, did you already know that there was something hidden in the yard?"
"Of course!" The Ninth Prince nodded and said, "Ye Sanqi and I have seen it a long time ago. I didn't tell you because I wanted to teach you a lesson."
"When you are in the world, you should never let down your guard at any time. Do you think it is absolutely safe to follow me and Ye Sanqi? You don't need to pay attention to potential crises? What if Ye Sanqi and I also miss?"
My face suddenly turned red: "Your Majesty, I was wrong!"
"Yes!" The Ninth Prince nodded: "Now tell me, what do you see?"
I thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, are we being targeted by people from the Yansheng Sect again?"
The Ninth Prince unfolded his fan and waved it a few times: "If I guessed correctly, Ji Wuxia has arrived at Abacus City. She is declaring war on us."
"So, this time..."
In the middle of what the Ninth Prince said, Ning Beile came back, and the Ninth Prince also changed his words: "This time, you made me very dissatisfied."
"Did you understand what Ning Beile said about Master Ge? The apprentice has no ability. People only remember the master and don't even bother to remember the apprentice's name."
"Remember to learn from your master and don't lose Ye Sanqi's face."
This Ninth Prince just likes to preach, and Ye Sanqi would definitely not say that.
If I can beat him, I will definitely spray him back, but I will bear with it for now! Who allowed him to take advantage of it?
I thought about it carefully: I did kill the ghost sealed by Ge Daoshi at the beginning. The person who used the victory-wearing technique in the courtyard released twelve ghosts at just the right time, which gave me the illusion that I had missed the target. Under this situation, I didn't dare to use conventional means to deal with those ghost masters, and the other party gave me enough time to use the forbidden technique, which resulted in me holding on to the forbidden technique and waiting for the opportunity.
Those who can do this must not only understand the past of Baofeng Tower, but also understand the secret techniques I have practiced.
The only person who meets these conditions is Ji Wuxia.
More importantly, the twelve ghosts standing outside the window could have attacked me from behind and killed me without giving me a chance to resist, but they chose instead to force me to use secret techniques. This approach is very consistent with Ji Wuxia's style. In her opinion, killing me easily will make her look inferior to Ye Sanqi. Even if I could use my death to hit Ye Sanqi, it would still seem less than perfect.
This is the reason why I stood behind the Ninth Prince with a low eyebrow and did not dare to say anything. The former waved his fan and said: "You are right to think that you have caused trouble. The soul fire in the corpse is actually ten The wicks of the two soul lamps are also the key to sealing off the Baofeng Tower formation."
"That Taoist priest Ge thought that by sealing the ghosts in his body, he had sealed the ghosts in Baofeng Tower. In fact, he didn't know that the people who set up the formation used a reverse formation method. The twelve ghosts did not die. The formation can never be opened. On the contrary, only when their souls are gone will the formation attached to their souls be opened, and the hell will really open in Baofeng Tower."
I couldn't help but take a breath: "That doesn't mean that fifteen years ago, Daoshi Ge was also plotted against."
"You can say that!" The Ninth Prince looked at Ning Beile and said: "Until the secret of Baofeng Tower is revealed, you will be in danger at any time. Do you choose to leave Abacus City to avoid trouble, or do you plan to break into Baofeng with me? building?"
Ning Beile did not answer the Ninth Prince's question. Instead, he raised his hand to the Ninth Prince and said, "Excuse me, what is your name, and which noble nobleman are you?"
The Ninth Prince smiled and said: "You can call me the Ninth Prince. My ancestors were wearing yellow flags. As for my name... I can't nominate my name until my family and country are restored."
Ning Beile immediately knelt down and said, "Slave, pay homage to the prince."
I have heard someone say before that among the eight banners of the Qing Dynasty, the most noble one was not the straight yellow flag, but the bordered yellow flag, and the nobles in the flag were all members of the royal family. If Ning Beile was really a noble man of the Qing Dynasty, the Ninth Prince would be his master.
The Ninth Prince said calmly: "The Qing Dynasty is gone, there are no slaves here, and there is no master. Don't mention these words again."
Ning Beile said with tears in her eyes: "Master, the Emperor is still there, the Eight Banners are still there, you can't give up on yourself! The Qing Dynasty..."
"Okay!" The Ninth Prince said impatiently: "Save your own life first, and then tell me other things. Before that, don't talk to me about master, slave."
Seeing the displeasure on Lord Ninth Prince's face, Ning Beile swallowed back the rest of his words.
I once asked Ye Sanqi privately: Is the Ninth Prince the real prince?
I ask this because I suspect that the Ninth Prince is not a royal family of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. When I was in Abacus City, I met a lot of old and young people from the Manchu Qing Dynasty. Those people wanted to wear yellow jackets and go to the streets. Whenever they had the opportunity, they would show off their status as disciples of the Eight Banners. The first time they opened their mouths, how about my ancestors!
The Ninth Prince never mentioned anything about the Qing Dynasty. Sometimes he talked about the Qing Dynasty with some disapproval. Only then did I suspect that he was not a prince.
Ye Sanqi told me: He doesn’t even know what the Ninth Prince’s real name is? Maybe the three characters "Nine Princes" are his name, and his surname of Nine is called Prince.
I suspect that Ye Sanqi deliberately belittled the Ninth Prince.
Ning Beile bowed and said: "Slave...I am willing to go with the prince to Baofeng Tower."
"Okay!" The Ninth Prince nodded and said: "Early tomorrow morning, you will send people to carry twelve sedans, cover them with black cloth, and enter Baofeng Tower with us. Then, send people to carry the sedans as quickly as possible. Baofeng Building is cleaned up, and the sooner Baofeng Building can be opened, the better.”
"I'll definitely do it!" Ning Beile agreed.
When Ning Beile was chatting with the Ninth Prince, I realized that even though Ning Beile only opened an agency on the surface, in fact, his business in Abacus City was enough for him to dominate.
It's just that Ning Beile is too hidden, and few people know his true strength. Otherwise, the Blue-Eyed Eagle would never dare to sit at the same table with him.
Ning Beile and the Ninth Prince chatted until dawn, and then Ye Sanqi brought the twelve gangsters out. Judging from the way they walked, those people were almost dead even if they were not dead. Moreover, each of them wears a blood jade ring on their left thumb.
Ye Sanqi probably cut the ring finger I pulled out of the toad's belly into twelve parts and took them to those gangsters. I couldn't help but look at the Ninth Prince: Couldn't it be the Ninth Prince who got that toad into Baofeng Tower? Otherwise, why did he have to get the blood jade finger ring back?
The Ninth Prince hit me on the head with a fan: "Can't you understand? It's okay, I'll tell you later."
Ye Sanqi said coldly: "Don't knock my apprentice stupid, otherwise, I won't be able to spare you!"
