Chapter 190 The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn’t stop
Luo Xi sighed, asked people to carry the body out, and told them to bury it properly.
Today is really not a good day.
"Can Honglou still get any news now?" she asked Baihu.
"Okay!" Bai Hu nodded: "Only the main altar was breached, the other strongholds of the Red Mansion are still safe and sound."
It's really ironic to talk about this.
Luo Xi took a deep breath and closed his eyes, thinking quickly about the current situation. When he opened his eyes again, they were clear and determined.
"Bai Hu, mobilize everyone in the Red Mansion to search for Jiu Xian's whereabouts. Everyone else, be ready for a battle at any time."
"Yes!" Everyone stood up and bowed to Luo Xi.
It is true that the tree wants to be still but the wind does not stop.
However, before Baihu could find out any news, Xiao He's envoy arrived. Luo Xi thought about it and decided to call all the important members of Nanyue to the study to see what Xiao He was trying to do.
"Luo Xi, our prime minister said that if you hand over the treasure that can produce the magical spring water and Nan Wushang, Jiuxian will return safely. Otherwise, you won't even be able to see his corpse." The envoy spoke in an arrogant tone with his chin raised high.
Treasures and Nan Wushang, it turns out that this was Xiao He’s idea!
He is really a thief with such a heart.
Luo Xi stared at him intently: "There is no treasure, it is just a secret recipe made from medicinal herbs."
The envoy tutted his tongue twice and said sarcastically: "It seems that the Ninth Floor Master is not that important to you. I wonder if he, who is seriously injured and dying, will be sad to hear this."
"But I'm only responsible for delivering the message. It's up to you whether you want to change or not."
The envoy smiled contemptuously after saying this, and turned around to leave. However, he suddenly felt a chill on his neck, and a feeling of suffocation came over him instantly. Then he fell to the ground with a "bang", and died.
Luo Xi withdrew his right hand.
"The county magistrate's mansion is not a place where anyone can come and go as they please," she said.
Everyone present was stunned for a moment. It was said that when two countries are at war, they would not kill envoys. It seemed that Xiao He had really pissed off the boss this time.
Baihu was extremely anxious: "Boss, what should we do now?"
He understood the importance of the holy water to Nanyue and everyone, but what should the OP do?
At this time, Nan Wushang stood up on his own, stared into Luo Xi's eyes and said: "Didn't Xiao He still want me? Why don't you hand me over? Maybe you can get back the Ninth Floor Master you've been thinking about."
His tone was sarcastic.
Luo Xi: "..."
"Shut up!" She glared at him: "Exchange chips with someone like Xiao He? Do you think I'm stupid?"
He even killed the emperor. Who can be sure if this is another conspiracy of his?
If you really agree, there is a greater possibility that nothing will be done.
It would be better for them to find the person themselves and rescue him without anyone knowing.
"So, I still have some weight in the boss's heart, right?" Nan Wushang's eyebrows curved slightly upwards, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
This key person was caught, and no one knew what was wrong with him. Luo Xi was too lazy to pay attention to him.
"Si Jia Yinli, it's the same as always. I'll leave the things here to you. I'll leave for the capital right away to find Jiuxian."
The two people who were named immediately stood up and promised: "Don't worry, Boss, we will do our job well and will not make any mistakes."
They don't know martial arts, so all they can do now is to ensure that the boss has no worries.
I hope the Ninth Floor Master and the Big Boss are blessed with good fortune and can return safely.
"That's good." Luo Xi smiled. She called Chu Zhe and Baihu and prepared to leave.
At this time, Wei Qing came over with a worried look in his eyes: "Boss, you have to be careful. We are here waiting for you to come back."
He had a premonition that if Nanyue lost its leader, everything here would fall apart.
All of them, who wasn't brought together because of her.
Rong Bai also put away his usual playful smile and earnestly warned: "Wei Qing is right. If it really doesn't work, Boss, just give Nan Wushang and the secret recipe of the divine water to Xiao He. Nothing is more important than life."
Nan Wushang: "..."
His eyes stared over with sinister look.
But this time, he didn't argue with Rong Bai. Instead, he turned around, picked up the wooden box that had been prepared on the table, and stuffed it into Luo Xi's arms.
"Here are some medicines I made. You might need them. Also, don't die out there."
"It's just a nine-stringed instrument, not worth it." After he said that, he turned around and strode away. Just like this time when he came to the study, he just came to deliver medicine to Luo Xi.
Luo Xi felt the heavy box in his hand and was stunned for a moment.
"Boss, there is a letter for you." At this time, the guard at the gate came in with a letter and handed it to Luo Xi.
"Just now a kid dropped this to me. I saw it was written "From the boss himself", so I took it and checked it. There is no problem with the letter."
letter?
Luo Xi was a little surprised. Who would send her a letter in such a way?
Just when Luo Xi was still trying to figure out what was going on, Yin Li rushed over in panic and took the letter.
"This, this...it's him, it's really him." Yin Li's hands were shaking as he held the letter.
"Who?" Luo Xi had a guess in his mind.
Sure enough, Yin Li raised his head, gently touched the words on the envelope with his right fingers, and said: "Yes, it's Xiao Yi, this is his handwriting for sure."
"Hmph! Traitor, why bother with him? Just throw him out." Rong Bai really looked down on Xiao Yi.
"People like him must have been unable to make it over there and wanted to come back to find the boss."
Yin Li opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he closed it sadly.
"Boss, then... do we want to open it?" he asked.
"Let's wait and see what he has to say." Luo Xi raised his hand to signal.
It won't take too long to rescue Jiuxian.
Yin Li's expression looked better. He quickly opened the letter and glanced through the contents.
However, the more he read, the faster his expression changed. After he finished reading the last word, Yin Li's eyes lit up surprisingly: "Sure enough, he is still on our side."
"Boss, Xiao Yi's letter tells us where the Ninth Floor Master is imprisoned. He even drew a detailed map on it. Take a look." He showed the contents of the letter to Luo Xi with surprise, like a child.
Luo Xi raised his eyes and saw that it was true.
"Boss, beware of fraud." Rong Bai still didn't trust Xiao Yi: "Who knows if he and his father are setting a trap for us."
"But no matter whether it is a trap or not, as long as we still want to save the Ninth Floor Master, we have to go on this trip, don't we?" Si Jia looked at Luo Xi and told him the situation they were facing.
