The Li family's shadows are much more high-profile than the Su family's mausoleum guardians. People who don't know think that the Su family's mausoleum guardians are inferior to the Li family's shadows. Who doesn't know that the strength and scale of the Li family's shadows are not as good as those of the Su family's mausoleum guardians. The Su family's mausoleum guardians are independent The training system is completely loyal to the clan leader and no collateral members are allowed to interfere.
Not to mention those outside, even the Su family and other branches of the Su family don't know how many tomb-keepers there are in the Su family. The last time they knew about it was when Mr. Su forced the palace to rebel.
It's just that more than 20 years have passed, and no one knows how far the Su family's mausoleum guardians have developed.
In contrast, the Li family's shadow has more concerns. For example, the Li family's shadow is rarely directly controlled by the clan leader. Most of the time it is controlled by the clan leader's brothers. If the brothers work together, the Li family's shadow can help the Li family develop. But if there is a gap between the two brothers, the Li family shadow will become a constraint for the head of the Li family. This is the biggest disadvantage of the Li family shadow.
In the former, the Li family will also go all out to support the development of Shadow, which is a good thing that complements each other. In the latter, the head of the Li family will definitely limit the scale of Shadow so that Shadow will not threaten the position of the patriarch. This is an inevitable operation.
In addition, the Li family's shadow does not have an independent system. Most of its masters are trained by the Wen family. When the Wen family is strong, the Li family's shadow will be strong. For example, the masters of the Wen family's dragon list are constantly emerging. time, then the shadow of the Li family will be unscrupulous.
In the same way, when the Wen family is weak, the Li family's shadow will be weak. For example, this is the case at this stage. After the death of the old man of the Wen family, the Wen family did not cultivate a master of the Dragon List. The two disciples of the Wen family did not interfere with the Wen family at all. Things that happened to the Wen family are now in limbo.
While waiting for news from the Tomb Keeper intelligence team, Su Qin and Chen Qiming had already left the city with their special operations team. Things in the city were completely watched by Han Xianjing. Now that the Li family was gone, Han Xianjing also No longer hiding, he directly came forward to help the Lin family openly and openly. This meaning is self-evident.
Something can happen to anyone, but nothing can happen to Han Xianjing. Su Qin asked Huashan to equip Han Xianjing with a team of mausoleum guards to protect him. If something happened to Han Xianjing, Su Qin would have to personally take care of the affairs in the southwest.
At that time, if another person in charge who is not on his side is transferred, he will have a headache, although the probability of this situation is very small.
But even if they were transferred from their own people, they didn't understand the situation in the southwest at all, and they couldn't help Su Qin much. After all, Han Xianjing had been deeply involved in the southwest for so many years, and he was familiar with all the resources.
There has been no news from Xiyue. Su Qin and the others have been waiting. Now they are all living in Dujiangyan. Once there is news from Xiyue, they will take action directly, no matter where the shadow of the Li family is in Shuzhou. .
One day has passed, two days have passed, and there is still no news. Chen Qiming and others are a little anxious, but Su Qin is not anxious, because there is no use in being anxious.
Ma Qian took the lead and couldn't help complaining: "Master, is this Xiyue reliable? Why do I feel that my ability is not as good as Tuoba's? After such a long time, why can't we find any trace of the Li family's shadow? We Just keep waiting like this, when will it end?"
Su Qin does not doubt the ability of Master Xiyue. The most important thing for the tomb guardian is ability. Without ability, he would not be able to reach his current position.
It's just that the situation in Shuzhou is not like that in the northwest. The Li family's resources in the northwest are limited and have to be distributed in multiple areas, so they cannot cause too much trouble to the Su family.
But things are different this time in Shuzhou. Li Zhenzhong, the shadow of the Li family, personally leads the team, and he brings with him the core masters of the shadow of the Li family. Naturally, their strength cannot be underestimated. It will definitely not be easy to find traces here in Huashan.
Su Qin calmed Ma Qian's mood and said, "There's no need to worry. They will always show their fox tail. What we need is reliable information and a sure hit, not just tossing around without any results."
Black Rose said angrily: "Ma Qian, can't you shut up? If you are so powerful, you can go find Shadow yourself. Why do you need others to provide you with information?"
Black Rose is speaking for their intelligence team, otherwise Ma Qian and other
Everyone has seen their intelligence team clearly. She knows very well who is in charge of the intelligence team in the southwest region. Even if Xiyue is not capable, this sister's ability is not that simple.
It's just that this sister doesn't like to show up in public, so she hasn't seen her in Xishu for so long, and Su Qin hasn't seen her either. However, Xiyue explained it to Su Qin, so Su Qin didn't take it seriously. Everyone has their own character, especially among the tomb-keepers.
Ma Qian muttered: "I have never done intelligence work. If I had, would I still need you to say this?"
Black Rose glared at Ma Qian and said, "Then just shut up."
Chen Qiming said at this time: "Okay, stop arguing. It's time to eat, drink, sleep, and adjust your state. We haven't done anything for a long time. Don't really encounter the shadow of the Li family then. The Su family is in disgrace."
Ma Qian said confidently: "Xiao Longtou, don't worry, no matter how good we are, we will definitely be better than those losers from the Li family."
Bai Lan has been sitting there eating roasted sweet potatoes, saying nothing or asking questions. She only listened to Chen Qiming's arrangements. As for Shanyu and Qiyue, they watched Black Rose and Ma Qian bickering in laughter. This has become their The daily life of a small circle.
Shanyu has a tendency to be a warm-hearted man now, and he knows how to take care of Qiyin's sister more and more. Everyone in the circle knows what Shanyu thinks, maybe even Qiyin himself knows it, but Qiyin is just pretending to be confused, who I don't know what she thinks.
But Shanyu is not in a hurry. He thinks it is good like this now. He can be with Qiyin every day. He doesn't have to worry about whether Qiyin likes him or not, and he doesn't have to worry about gains and losses.
If he confesses his love rashly and Qiyin doesn't like him, it will be a bit embarrassing for them to look up but not look down. Then one of him and Qiyin will definitely have to leave this small circle.
At that time, don't say whether you like things or not. Just thinking about him and Qiyin being separated made Shanyu feel a little uncomfortable, so he just stayed with her silently.
I have to say, this guy is really quite pure in love.
The next night, Xiyue finally called Su Qin. Su Qin didn't ask anything, just listened to Huiyue's initiative to report.
At this moment, Xiyue had just returned from the mountain city and was at the Longquanyi Club. He said truthfully: "Master, six action teams have been formed and have been assigned to Xishu.
"Well, it's about the same time as I expected. Now I don't have to worry about Zhao Taiqing." Su Qin said in a deep voice.
Each of the six action groups consists of eight people, that is, forty-eight real masters. This is almost the core force in the southwest region.
These tomb guards are scattered in several states in the southwest and cannot be transferred in a short time, so Su Qin also knows that it is not that fast.
Now, gathering them together within two days is already Xiyue's greatest ability.
Xiyue continued to report: "Master, the shadows behind the attack have not been found yet. After they started their attack that night, they disappeared completely. Many of our clues have been interrupted. Although there is some other news, in order to avoid alerting the enemy, we We’re not sure yet.”
Su Qin said calmly: "Don't worry, they will show their flaws, we just wait, you can continue the investigation over there."
Xiyue hesitated for a while and said, "But Master, the Lin family reported to us that there are a lot of tails following Lin Wang and Lin Han recently. We have also confirmed repeatedly that it is most likely the shadow of the Li family. We judge that the shadow of the Li family is preparing to attack the Lin family?"
Su Qin frowned and said, "Is this news reliable?"
Xiyue said loudly: "Basically reliable."
Su Qin said bluntly: "You don't need to worry about the Lin family. I will just take charge. You can continue to investigate the shadows in other places."
Xiyue agreed and hung up the phone.
Tsk, tsk, tsk, Li Zhenzhong was diverting the attention away from the mountain, letting them focus on the Zhao family in Xishu. Now he is going to take action against the Lin family. He is worthy of being the shadow second-in-command of the Li family, and his methods are somewhat sharp.
Since the shadows elsewhere cannot disappear,
See, if Li Zhenzhong chooses to attack the Lin family at this time, Su Qin can only resort to tricks and let the Lin family play a show with him to draw out these shadows and then annihilate them all.
How to act?
Su Qin thought for a long time and finally came up with a suitable solution.
The others are definitely not as important as Lin Wang and Ning Qing. After all, they are his father-in-law and mother-in-law. Li Zhenzhong's character is more willing to do something to them, so let them play a show with him.
So late at night, Su Qin called Lin Wang directly, told Lin Wang everything he wanted to say, and asked them to consider whether they wanted to. After all, this kind of thing cannot be forced on the Lin family. It would be best if the Lin family is willing to cooperate. If not Su Qin wouldn't think anything of it if he wanted to.
The most important thing is that this kind of thing has safety risks. If something goes wrong, Lin Wang and Ning Qing will be seriously injured or killed.
After hearing this, Lin Wang said bluntly: "I don't have any objections here, but your aunt doesn't know. When she comes back in the evening, I will make a decision after discussing with her."
"Okay, then I'll wait for your call." Su Qin said silently.
Ning Qing came back from get off work at around nine o'clock in the evening. She had a lot of work recently, because she had to cooperate with the Lin family's actions against the Duan family, and many things had already gone to court, which made her almost overwhelmed. .
This is because they have already pushed many cases from other clients and are basically serving the Lin family. Even so, they feel that they don't have enough manpower.
After Ning Qing came back, she threw her lady's suit jacket on the sofa. The black knitted dress underneath revealed her beautiful figure. At her age, she can still maintain such a good figure. In addition to spending money to maintain it, she has strict self-discipline.
When Lin Wang saw Ning Qing coming back, he said, "I left dinner for you. Do you want to eat it now or later?"
Ning Qing said a little tiredly: "I won't eat tonight. I've been too tired recently. I'm going to take a bath and go to bed."
Lin Wang hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's go take a bath later. I want to discuss something with you."
"What's the matter?" Ning Qing asked.
Lin Wang said truthfully: "Su Qin just called me and said that he wanted us to cooperate with him on something. This matter has certain risks. You should consider it after hearing this."
Ning Qing frowned and asked, "What's the matter? You said it's so serious."
Lin Wang said unhurriedly: "As for the Li family, you also know that the Li family has already taken action to help the Duan family. Two days ago, the Li family took action against Zhao Taiqing. Zhao Taiqing suffered heavy losses. Now the Li family He is preparing to attack our Lin family. Su Qin wants us to cooperate with his actions against the Li family. The specific thing is to use us as bait to lure the Li family to take action, and then he will kill them all."
Ning Qing's face changed slightly, and then Lin Wang told Ning Qing the detailed process. Ning Qing fell into silence after listening. This was indeed risky, and the risk was not small. No wonder Lin Wang wanted to discuss it with him.
Ning Qing has rarely experienced this kind of thing, or has never experienced it at all. At most, it is malicious retaliation from a competitor, but there is a limit. Besides, her mother is a legal expert, and she is the daughter-in-law of the Lin family. , who dares to do anything to him?
It was only after meeting the Duan family that I learned about these methods.
Now Su Qin asked her and Lin Wang to cooperate in the action against the Li family. If there was a slight mistake, something might happen, so Ning Qing had to think carefully.
After an unknown amount of time, Ning Qing came back to her senses and asked, "What do you mean?"
Lin Wang snorted coldly: "Anyway, the Li family is ready to attack our Lin family. These are all things that happen sooner or later. Rather than being passively beaten, it is better to take the initiative. Su Qin also wants to help us solve this problem completely, so that the Li family will not worry about it. We are."
Ning Qing asked, "What if something happens?"
"It's our fate if something goes wrong. It's not easy for our Lin family to come this far. Without Su Qin's help, I don't know what the outcome would be. Anyway, I don't care anymore. I will try my best to protect you when the time comes. Besides, Su Qin also said that there is a high probability that there will be no accidents, and those are just the worst outcomes." Lin Wang explained.
Ning Qing nodded silently and said: "Since you have decided so, I have no objection. Let's go to Qingcheng Mountain tomorrow."
Ning Qing didn't know why, but she subconsciously chose to trust Su Qin, believing that Su Qin would ensure that nothing happened to her.
Moreover, Su Qin has already taken the initiative. If they don't agree, it will be obvious that the Lin family is a little greedy for life and afraid of death.
Since Ning Qing agreed, Lin Wang smiled and said, "Honey, don't worry, nothing will happen. We have to believe in Su Qin."
Ning Qing just hummed and said nothing more, while Lin Wang called Su Qin back.
In fact, Ning Qing was a little worried. Although she seemed fine on the outside, she was still very scared inside. So after taking a bath, Ning Qing called her daughter Lin Xi. If something unexpected happened, she would be the most worried. This is my daughter.
When the call was connected, Lin Xi was chatting in the dormitory because her roommates said that there were rumors in the school that Su Qin had broken up with her because they hadn't been seen together for a long time.
Lin Xi said that she was used to it because not many people knew that Su Qin was no longer in school during this period. He had not seen Su Qin for a long time, let alone other people.
At this time, her mother called. Ning Qing went to the balcony to answer the phone and said, "Mom, why did you call me so late?"
"I've been a little too tired recently. I just came back and took a bath, and I miss our baby. Don't you miss your mother?" Ning Qing said coquettishly. Ever since Su Qin slapped the Lin family in the face, her relationship with her daughter has not been as good as before. He was stiff and would say whatever he needed. Lin Xi also felt these changes.
Lin Xi said with a smile: "Mom, how could I miss you? If Su Qin hadn't let me go back to Xishu, I would have gone back during the weekend."
Ning Qing's face changed slightly and she said, "Daughter, you have to listen to Su Qin on this matter. There is some chaos in Shuzhou now. It's a good thing that you won't come back for the time being. You can come back when the matter in Shuzhou is over."
Lin Xi frowned and asked, "Mom, when will it end? I miss you and dad, and I also miss my grandparents."
Ning Qing joked: "I think you miss Su Qin, right?"
"Mom..." Lin Xi said coquettishly and coquettishly.
Lin Xi really misses Su Qin. This is the first time she has been separated from Su Qin for so long since she has known Su Qin for so long. Even during the winter and summer vacations, she has never been separated for so long. The most important thing is that she is very worried about Su Qin's safety, but Nothing can be done to help.
Ning Qing continued to joke: "Is there anything else that I can't tell my mother?"
"Mom, how is he doing lately? Have you seen him?" Lin Xi asked with concern.
Ning Qing was a little confused and said, "You can just ask him these things directly. Why are you asking about me?"
"When I asked him, he said everything was fine and told me not to worry." Lin Xi said helplessly.
Of course Ning Qing knew that Su Qin didn't want his daughter to worry. If she knew what he was doing in Shuzhou, her daughter would be worried to death.
Ning Qing could only say: "Everything is fine with him. I haven't seen him recently, but I think I will meet him tomorrow. Your father and I are going to Qingcheng Mountain to pray. He said we will go together then, and I will also pray for you."
Lin Xi muttered: "He still has a conscience."
Ning Qing said thoughtfully, "Woman, Su Qin is a good boy. He doesn't want anything to happen. You both need to be well, do you understand?"
Lin Xi was puzzled and said, "Mom, why are you suddenly saying this?"
Ning Qing wanted to say something else, but she was afraid that the topic would be too heavy, which would only make her daughter more worried.
So he quickly explained: "Don't think too much, I don't mean anything else. I just mean that two people will always be noisy together. Sometimes they need to understand each other. Su Qin is busy now and has no time to accompany you. You Be considerate of him."
"Mom, I know, I'm not so narrow-minded." Lin Xi said.
Ning Qing didn't want to disturb her daughter anymore, for fear that if she talked too much, her daughter would notice something was wrong, so she said, "Okay, you go to bed early.
I also went to bed. "
After saying that, Ning Qing hung up the phone with her daughter. However, she was very tired and lay on the bed but couldn't fall asleep. She fell asleep in a daze in the middle of the night. After falling asleep, she had a strange dream. A dream that left her unspeakable.
The next morning, Lin Wang and Ning Qing returned to the Lin family's old house in Qingcheng Mountain. After noon, they went to a Taoist temple in Qingcheng Mountain. The old Taoist priest of this Taoist temple had a very good relationship with the Lin family. At the same time, Su Qin took Chen Qiming and others People have also arrived at Qingcheng Mountain.
