Chapter 345: The Honest Young Man (Part )

Last time, we talked about how Qu Xia was actually a master at the peak of the fourth rank. After having dinner with Li Yi, she started fighting him. So what will happen next? Let's read on.

Qu Xia used four silver threads to wrap around Li Yi's hands, and then wrapped the threads around the beams to tie him to the table.

Li Yi looked bewildered and said, "You're doing it right away, without waiting for me to digest it?"

Qu Xia said coldly: "If we don't fight the poison, it will lose its effect!"

Li Yi hurriedly shouted, "Stop, stop, stop. Can we fight outside? This is the Jing family. If we fight inside the house, it will cause too much noise. We might even tear the house apart. Can we fight in the yard?"

Qu Xia said angrily: "That's your business, it has nothing to do with me! My broken golden thread can exert its greatest power here!"

Li Yi shook his head and said, "I told you that you are the most troublesome! Mo Bai, stay away so that I don't hurt you by mistake!"

Mo Bai shouted and ran to the gate of the courtyard, while Qu Xia in the house threw four flying knives tied with silk threads at Li Yi's eyes and armpits. These are the weakest points of human body defense, even for warriors.

Li Yi said, "I'm outside the house." As soon as he said that, he was teleported to the yard.

But as soon as he appeared, a dozen silver threads suddenly tightened around him. It turned out that Qu Xia had already set a trap in the courtyard. Before Li Yi could figure out when Qu Xia had laid these silver threads, four flying knives controlled by the threads had already attacked from four directions.

Li Yi said: "I'm behind you."

Qu Xia turned around suddenly, but Li Yi did not appear behind her. When she turned around again, Li Yi had already raised his hand and grabbed her neck.

Li Yi asked: "How is it, did I pass the test?"

Qu Xia smiled ghostly, as if she had used some kind of bone-shrinking technique, not only getting rid of Li Yi's clutches, but also wrapping his hands with broken gold wire. This broken gold wire is a special kind of silk thread, which can even cut through pig iron once the Qi base is injected into it!

Li Yi shook his head and smiled, "You are really difficult to deal with, but where did you get so many silver threads? They are all reinforced with air base. Oh, I see, it's all thanks to this dress, right? Then if I take off this dress of yours, will you admit defeat?"

Qu Xia smiled and said, "Even if you use your words to make magic happen, you can't take off my brocade robe. This is a magic weapon!"

Li Yi smiled evilly and said, "What if I take off all your other clothes and only leave you this one?"

Qu Xia showed a charming smile and said: "I will be yours sooner or later anyway, so what if you see me naked?" After that, she threw out dozens of silver and gold threads and arranged them around her body as a trap to prevent Li Yi from getting close to her using his words. If Li Yi used the same trick again, he would definitely be entangled.

Li Yi shook his head and smiled: "The most you can do is to prevent me from getting close to you. Didn't your uncle tell you that I have another way of fighting?"

Li Yi clapped his hands, gathered his righteousness and Buddhist teachings and said, "Fire Style: Wildfire Spreads Across the Prairie!"

The silver-gold threads that Qu Xia had arranged around her suddenly ignited with red lotus fire, which quickly gathered along her Qi base. Qu Xia immediately cut the threads and retracted her Qi base, but her broken gold threads were also burned clean. She looked at the extinguished flames and said, "Dual cultivation of two fourth-grade is really troublesome!"

Li Yi asked: "Then are we still going to fight?"

Qu Xia laughed and said, "Why do you think you will definitely win! As long as I force you to mobilize your Qi base, you will lose!"

Li Yi laughed secretly in his heart: Do I need to mobilize my Qi to deal with you? You are still playing with silk threads with me, you are still naive! I just want to play with you for a while longer.

Qu Xia dropped her hands and two long needles slipped out from her sleeves. These were her real weapons.

Li Yi asked: "Your clothes are really useful, they can hold anything. Where did you buy them? I'll buy one later!"

Qu Xia flew forward and engaged Li Yi in close combat, laughing as she fought: "When you marry me, it will be included in your dowry!"

Li Yi also responded while fighting: "Ah, what you said makes my heart move. You are beautiful, good at fighting, and scheming, but I feel like something is missing!"

Qu Xia's moves were all aimed at the acupuncture points and weak defenses. It can be said that every move was insidious and vicious, but Li Yi could always use the simplest moves to resolve her attacks. In a few breaths, the two of them had exchanged more than fifty moves.

Qu Xia asked: "You can take so many of my attacks with your physical body alone, what kind of monster are you?"

Li Yi said: "It's because you don't want to hurt me that you don't want to use your full strength. Speed ​​alone is not enough. In the face of absolute strength..."

With a bang, Li Yi was kicked into the courtyard by Qu Xia. He rubbed his stomach and said, "Is this a real fight?"

Qu Xia smiled and said, "There's nothing I can do. If you don't have the determination to murder your husband, I can't force you to use your full strength."

Li Yi raised his left hand, and the Red Lotus Karma Fire Seal lit up on his palm. He smiled and said, "My dear, if your husband really dies, what will happen to the baby in your belly?"

Qu Xia suddenly realized that something was wrong, and Wu Fu's danger warning also appeared. She recalled that she also drank a glass of wine, but in order to be foolproof, she had clearly taken the antidote before coming. Why was there still a danger warning?

Li Yi smiled and said, "Don't think too much. The wine you drank was infused with my talent. So now I just need to ignite the talent in your body and you will be dead. Or is it that your internal organs are also made of iron and steel and are not afraid of fire?"

Qu Xia snorted coldly, retracted the long needle and said, "Come back, Wei Lang, I will drink with you."

Li Yi walked back into the house and sat down with a smile. Qu Xia was like Spider-Man, shooting out broken golden threads to wrap around various overturned objects, and with a casual pull she restored the house to its original state.

Looking at Qu Xia, who looked gentle and virtuous, Li Yi asked, "My dear, how do you switch between different personalities and identities? This is a science, and I, your husband, must learn it well!"

Qu Xia sat down next to Li Yi, poured a glass of wine and said, "What nonsense is Wei Lang talking about? I don't understand. Haven't I always been so gentle and virtuous?"

Li Yi curled his lips and said, "Yes, yes, yes! Madam is right. Madam has always been beautiful, intelligent, gentle and elegant."

Qu Xia said in a gentle voice: "Then maybe I can find a way to abort the baby in my belly?"

Li Yi put his hand on Qu Xia's lower abdomen and pulled it outwards. Several streams of purple air seeped out and then entered Li Yi's body. Qu Xia breathed a sigh of relief and threw a small packet of powder on the table and said unhappily: "This is the antidote, you take it yourself."

Li Yi's face was long and he said unhappily: "Recover a little more, I want the state I was in just now!"

Qu Xia immediately said gently: "Wei Lang, the poison in your wine is a strange poison, specially made to restrain warriors. As long as you mobilize your Qi base, the poison will spread faster and attack your heart and lungs. This is the antidote, my dear, drink it quickly, otherwise it will be bad if I stay a widow."

In fact, Li Yi had already used the detoxification method of the bag curse to remove the poison, but he did not notice anything unusual when he drank, so he asked: "If it is poison, why is there no reaction in my body's righteousness?"

Qu Xia didn't want to waste any more time talking to Li Yi, so she picked up the medicine bag, pried open Li Yi's mouth, poured the medicine in, and then gave Li Yi a bowl of wine before sitting down in a huff.

Li Yi burped and said, "My dear, I still like gentler ones. Can we switch?"

Qu Xia said unhappily: "After so many years, my father finally assigned me a similar task, but I failed. Why are you so annoying!" After saying that, she kicked Li Yi on the leg.

Li Dacai said with a wronged look on his face, "No, can you blame me for this? It was your family, the Qu family, who insisted on diving into the water to test the depth, and now it turns out the water is too deep, and you choked on the water. Can you blame me, the river?"

Qu Xia kicked him again and said, "Why don't I blame you? Before you appeared, there was no one in the entire Chu State that I could take seriously. Now you're here, and you're not that old, but you're a double fourth-rank official. Can you leave a way out for others?" As she said that, she punched Li Yi on the arm.

Li Yi was really confused now, because he was not sure what kind of personality Qu Xia had. Li Yi said with embarrassment: "If you insist on saying so, then I am indeed wrong."

Qu Xia suddenly pulled out a long needle and pressed it against Li Yi's neck. Li Yi said helplessly, "It's not my wife, why are you still here? Forget it! It's getting dark, let's go to bed early."

Qu Xia said coldly: "Bah, rest your ass! When do you say you will marry me?"

Li Yi's heart sank: OK, here comes another person forcing marriage! Li Yi shook his head and said, "Do I have the final say in this matter? If I say I will marry you now, can you marry me?"

Qu Xia's needle went in an inch further, and the tip of the needle had already pierced Li Yi's neck, and he could feel the sting. This was a steel needle specially used to break the copper skin and iron bones of a warrior. Fortunately, it was not poisoned, otherwise it would be really troublesome.

Qu Xia asked, "Just tell me when you can enter the government?"

Li Yi shook his head and said, "Enter the government? Then you have to wait for me to pave the way for you, right?"

“How long will you lay it?”

"How can I say that for sure? Let's talk about it after I meet Prime Minister Su. I think I have to pay a decent gift before I can marry such a beautiful wife like you, right?"

Upon hearing this, Qu Xia retracted the needle, sat aside and poured wine for Li Yi, and asked, "Are you planning to find out the king's back-up plan and then find a way to force the king to withdraw his troops?"

Li Yi drank a glass of wine and said, "That depends on Subu's attitude. If the Prime Minister doesn't help, nothing can be done. Hey, has the king been on guard against you? I really don't understand, is this considered disloyalty?"

Qu Xia shook her head and said, "Of course not, it's just that everyone has their own interests. This battle may be helpful to the king, but what benefit can it bring to our clan?

The Western Regions are so far away, and there is the Northern Wei in between. The Wu Gu Cult can preach and control the people, but we can't get any benefit at all. The Xiang family may be able to get some military merits, but what about our Qu and Jing families? Nothing!"

Li Yi asked in confusion: "Can't you also get military merits?"

Qu Xia replied: "The one sent to the front by the Xiang family was the eldest son Xiang Ping, who was just a mediocre person, while the truly capable Xiang Ying stayed behind in Baidi City. Don't you understand this?"

Li Yi smiled and said, "I know that if we win, it's because the prince gave proper command, and if we lose, it's because my subordinates didn't do their job well."

Qu Xia nodded and said, "That's right, so what's the point of coveting this little military achievement. And if we really lose the battle, it would be good if the Shenxi army can withdraw, but if most of them are killed, I'm afraid something big will happen!

At that time, Southern Liang and Northern Wei were eyeing Chu covetously. If they divided Chu up like Han did, wouldn’t this century-old foundation be destroyed in an instant? "

Li Yi took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "How can the Emperor of Liang still have the heart to divide the river with the Northern Wei? He is now lucky enough to ensure that there is no chaos in the Southern Liang!"

Qu Xia said: "Emperor Liang is very ambitious. He has the idea of ​​swallowing up the world. Now he has Liu Hong, who is a master of the third level of cultivation. I don't know what he is busy with.

This time, Prime Minister Su sent people to negotiate with Southern Liang, but the Emperor of Liang made a huge request, blatantly asking for money. In the past, he could delay by offering food and Shu brocade, but this time he wanted real gold and silver, or copper and iron ore. What do you think the Emperor of Liang wants to do?"

Li Yi poured a glass of wine for Qu Xia and said, "He is building an army, named Yanjia Army. Yanjia technique was developed by Liu Hong based on the mechanical techniques of Confucianism, Taoism and Mohism combined with Taoist techniques. This Yanjia Army is an army armed with Yanjia technique, and its combat power is amazing.

But the corresponding cost is naturally very high to build such a powerful army. In addition, the Yanjia Army lost some elite soldiers when it was clearing out the evil cult Shura Palace, and needed to be repaired. Although Emperor Liang had money, he did not have enough copper and iron ore, so he asked the Chu State for it. "

Qu Xia asked: "How did you know this?"
