When he finally found the ship carrying Jiao Yue and Jiang Zhu in front of the channel, Bai Yao determined that Wen Xiaoyun and Yin Nuo were in the ship.
So he jumped up and flew towards the ship.
At the same time, Qin Qi drove the ship back quickly.
The first is to prevent outsiders from discovering their identities, and the second is to clear the way for the white duck in advance to ensure that there is no danger in the place where the white duck passes.
And these shadow guards were hurriedly walking in the dense forest farther away.
Up until this point, they had not noticed anyone suspicious around them.
But not long after Bai Ya boarded Wen Xiaoyun's boat, Qin Qi suddenly noticed something suspicious in front of him in the river.
So Qin Qi secretly greeted the shadow guards behind him, and he took the lead in sailing the boat to the shore to check.
After comparison, Wen Xiaoyun knew that the place where Qin Qi landed was just in front of the undercurrent waterfall.
But the strange thing is that as soon as Qin Qi left, there was no movement, nor did he give any reply to the secret guards behind him.
The secret guards didn't think much about it. After all, if Qin Qi was in danger, he would definitely send them a signal to ask for rescue.
But there was no signal from Qin Qi at all.
So they continued to protect Bai Yao in secret, until the wooden boat Bai Yao was riding suddenly deviated from the channel and rushed into a rag torrent. They immediately became anxious.
Just as he was about to show up and rush into the river to save people, he saw a bunch of killers suddenly rushing out from the shore. The place where they just came out was the place where Qin Qi disappeared before.
Looking back in the direction of Bai Yao, he had already jumped out of the water, and was swimming towards the shore with two divine horses guarding him. There was an old man with white hair traveling with him. So they quickly made a decision to deal with the pursuers on the shore first.
Because they had been ordered to die by Bai Ya before, unless they encountered imminent life danger, they were not allowed to have any interaction with Mr. Bai in front of outsiders.
Under such an order, they could not save the white duck in the water, but could only split up to surround and suppress the thieves who appeared on the shore. Especially those thieves who kept shooting arrows into the river.
After a desperate fight, the secret guards finally gained the upper hand.
Because these secret guards are all top masters who have been trained by Bai Ya for many years, and their combat effectiveness is extremely high. Even the mysterious Wenxiang Sect and its minions are far from their opponents. After catching most of the thieves, the secret guards originally wanted to tie them all up and escort them back to Yanzhou Mansion. Unexpectedly, the thieves' bodies suddenly burst into flames, and not even a single one was left alive.
So this group of secret guards had no choice but to pack and tie the charred corpses together, and temporarily found a cool and secluded corner to place them. I'll just wait until the Yamen investigates for clues about the murderer and ask for an autopsy.
But the strange thing is that they searched every corner of the area and couldn't find Qin Qi's shadow.
Qin Qi disappeared without a trace as if he had evaporated from the world.
Originally, according to Bai Yao's death order, after completing these things, they had to continue to return to the shadows, secretly protect Bai Yao and continue to move forward.
Unexpectedly, Bai Yao blew the emergency order whistle at them midway. That's why they had the opportunity to show up. Of course, according to the instructions of the White Eagle Whistle, they went back to search Qin Qi carefully before showing up. But the result remains unchanged.
Qin Qi completely disappeared.
Hearing this, Bai Yao fell into a deep silence.
Wen Xiaoyun knew the importance of Qin Qi to Bai Yao and understood Bai Yao's current mood.
But in front of outsiders, especially Bai Ya's secret guards, she couldn't persuade her too much.
All she can do is change the topic temporarily and lead everyone to look forward. Use the process of things to dilute previous accidents and failures.
"Brother Bai," Wen Xiaoyun said, "No matter whether there is any news, it is good news. I believe that with Qin Qi's skills, nothing will happen easily. The words "protect you" have become his belief. He will not Allowing myself to lose my life easily, I will no longer be able to protect you.
Now that the Wenxiang Sect is aware of our progress, the top priority is to return to Yanzhou Mansion as soon as possible to avoid long nights and dreams. Summarizing the truth of all the murders, he mobilized the power of the Yanzhou government and the governor's office of Lu to arrest the Wenxiang followers throughout the province.
This is also a good thing for Qin Qi, who is fighting with the Wenxiang Sect somewhere.
It is said that to encircle Wei and rescue Zhao, we have to break into the Wenxiang Sect's base camp. Naturally, they don't have much thought to fight against Qin Qi outside. Perhaps when we return to Yanzhou Mansion and can represent the government and formally declare war on Wenxiang Sect, that will be the day Brother Qin Qi returns safely. "
Although Bai Ya's face looked ugly, he could only nod his head and agreed to Wen Xiaoyun's proposal.
Suddenly, Wen Xiaoyun remembered something again, turned around, looked at the masked man in gray clothes, and asked urgently: "You were all on the shore at that time, did you see the boatman who was punting the boat? "
The masked man in gray raised his head and glanced at Bai Yao. After getting approval from Bai Yao's eyes, he turned to Wen Xiaoyun and answered her question.
