When everyone rushed to the warehouse, the fire had already subsided. Many maids and servants were busy carrying water to put out the fire, and it was a mess.
Su Qiqi and others also rushed forward to help, and the fire was quickly put out. Su Qiqi, Qin Chuan, Yan Ruoyu, Nangong Yu, and Nangong Yue checked the warehouse. Fortunately, they were prepared. They used invisible fire shelters to cover several boxes containing important supplies in advance, and only burned a few wooden shelves and A box for storing common daily necessities.
Yan Ruoyu stepped forward and chanted a spell to close the fire shelter, checked the important items in the boxes, and confirmed that there were no problems before re-locking them and using the fire shelter to continue protecting them.
After everything was settled, Su Qiqi left the maids and servants to clean the warehouse, and returned to the meeting hall with others.
As soon as Su Qiqi stepped into the threshold, she felt a strange aura. She looked around and found nothing unusual, so she sat back at the table with everyone and continued to discuss measures to deal with King Shunning of Northern Yi.
The night got darker and everyone dispersed. The figure hiding on the beam jumped down slightly, lingered in the room for a while, and then climbed out of the window and left.
After Su Qiqi returned to the bedroom, she had been restless and had a bad feeling in her heart, as if something bad was going to happen. She sat blankly by the window for a while, still a little worried, then said hello to Zheng Miao and Yan Ruoyu, and walked back to the meeting hall alone.
The meeting hall was dark, with only the dim moonlight shining on the threshold, making it even more eerie.
Su Qiqi held the candlestick and walked slowly into the hall. After taking a few steps, she felt something strange under her feet. She leaned down to pick up the object she stepped on, and looked at it by the candlelight. It turned out to be a very delicate object. A jade pendant with a large word "Shun" embroidered on one side and the word "Ning" embroidered on the other side.
Su Qiqi looked stern. It seemed that her guess was correct. King Shunning of Northern Yi really had evil intentions. He came to visit during the day and was rejected, so he resorted to such dirty tricks and even sneaked into the escort agency to spy.
She pondered for a while, put the jade pendant away, and then thought about the fire in the warehouse, and thought to herself: This matter probably has something to do with King Shunning! How could it be such a coincidence that if he didn't catch fire sooner or later, he would catch fire as soon as he came...
Su Qiqi returned to the room with a heavy heart. She originally wanted to discuss the discovery of the jade pendant with Zheng Miao and Yan Ruoyu, but when she saw that the two were sleeping soundly, she gave up and simply washed up before going to bed.
When having breakfast the next day, Su Qiqi told everyone about the jade pendant he picked up last night. Everyone became nervous again. Except for Su Qiqi, Qin Chuan, and Yan Ruoyu, the other bodyguards were all facing formidable enemies. A newly joined bodyguard said worriedly: "This Prince of Beiyi is not easy to deal with! He can do it easily. Mobilizing tens of thousands of soldiers, no matter how skilled we are in martial arts, we may not be able to withstand them..." When the other bodyguards heard this, some sighed, some agreed, and the atmosphere instantly became solemn.
Seeing this, Su Qiqi hurriedly reassured everyone: "Don't panic, our bodyguard bureau is more than enough to protect ourselves at the moment. Besides, General Fan and the Chief Envoy are also nearby and can provide assistance at any time. There is no need to worry too much... In addition, King Shunning hasn't officially broken up with each other yet, and won't come to the Escort Bureau to cause trouble in a big way... We still have time to buffer and come up with a proper response..."
After listening to Su Qiqi's words, the bodyguards calmed down a little, and then continued to talk about ways to deal with King Shuning.
Su Qiqi asked everyone to express their opinions. At the same time, she exchanged opinions with Qin Chuan and asked Luo Xiaoshi to deliver a message to General Fan and Chief Envoy Lin.
General Fan received the news and immediately sent Qingdai with fire dragon flags and hundreds of sergeants to the escort agency to help. Qingdai came to the escort agency to ask about the situation and gave Su Qiqi an idea. He and the dozens of sergeants who came with him pretended to be bodyguards and handymen and temporarily stayed in the bodyguard office. The remaining several hundred sergeants were scattered in abandoned houses nearby, ready to cooperate with the actions of Su Qiqi and others.
Su Qiqi was very grateful after hearing this, thanked Qingdai, and then asked the housekeeper to arrange several guest rooms for Qingdai and others to stay temporarily.
At the same time, news also came from the Chief Envoy Lin, who also sent dozens of government officials to secretly inquire about the whereabouts of King Shunning and promptly informed the Weiyuan Escort Bureau.
Everything is going on in full swing. Su Qiqi's heart has been hanging. While arranging manpower to strengthen the security measures of the escort agency, she and Qin Chuan stepped up training on the martial arts and formations of the escort masters.
A few days later, the Weiyuan Escort Bureau was still calm, and no one else came to the door except the clients who were looking for escorts.
Su Qiqi and others were a little surprised. Could it be that the prince of Beiyi had changed his mind? Or are you stuck with other things and have no time to find trouble?
Just as he was wondering, an urgent report came from General Fan, saying that someone was attacking the military camp at night. There were many people who knew Xuanmen magic, so Su Qiqi led people to rescue them.
Su Qiqi asked Nangong Yu, Nangong Yue, and Granny Cui to be responsible for the security of the escort agency. He took Qin Chuan, Yan Ruoyu, Xu Yunling, Pei Wenyi and others to meet up with Qingdai's men and rushed to the military camp.
When they arrived at the military camp, they saw blazing fires and collapsed tents everywhere. General Fan's soldiers were fighting with a group of masked men dressed as foreigners. Su Qiqi and others rushed forward to help, fighting and walking away, looking for General Fan and Vice General Zhang. figure.
"Sister, do you think that person looks like Vice General Zhang?" Yan Ruoyu said as she looked at a man wearing a unicorn robe who was fighting with several foreign soldiers.
Hearing this, Su Qiqi looked where she was looking, and then shouted out loud: "It is indeed Deputy General Zhang! No, the other party is going to use evil magic!" After that, he flew over.
Qin Chuan also followed, and with quick eyes and hands, he pulled Lieutenant Zhang away, and then he and Su Qiqi dealt with the sorcerer who was casting a spell.
The warlock's spell was broken by Su Qiqi and Qin Chuan, and he suddenly became angry. He held a mahogany sword in one hand, and put the sword fingers in his other hand to his lips. He chanted a strange spell, and then used his fingertips to draw an imaginary spell on the sword. There was a blue chill all over the sword, and Su Qiqi and Qin Chuan both felt a chill from a few steps away.
What does this guy want to do? What kind of evil secret is this? Su Qiqi's heart suddenly surged with countless distracting thoughts. Just when she was trying to calm down the thoughts in her heart, the sword glowing with blue and cold energy pierced towards her.
Su Qiqi was stunned for a moment, then immediately dodged away, then waved his hand with a sweeping sword to eliminate the opponent's sword energy. At the same time, he picked up the silver needle hidden in his sleeve and shot it out quickly.
The other party also reacted quickly. He flicked his robe, controlled the energy between the warp and latitude, and turned the coarse cloth into a "shield", blocking Su Qiqi's fierce attack.
The three of them fought for dozens of rounds. Seeing that he could not take advantage, the warlock resorted to illusions again, intending to avoid Su Qiqi and Qin Chuan and attack Yan Ruoyu and Xu Yunling, who seemed to be weak in martial arts.
Just when Su Qiqi and Qin Chuan were about to go to help Yan Ruoyu and Xu Yunling, Vice General Zhang ran forward, approached the two men and begged in a low voice: "Miss Nangong, Mr. Qin, hurry up and save General Fan! He has been arrested. King Shunning and the Great Master of Beiyi are trapped..."
