Chapter 263 is enough for you to vent your anger.
The spring is located in a very remote area.
This place was already extremely cold and damp, but Chief Ying ordered his men to cut down all the tall trees in the area, making the biting cold winds even more unrestrained and penetrating into people's bodies.
As soon as Li Qingqing arrived here, she couldn't help but wrap her fox fur coat around herself.
Of course, she didn't come with Chief Ying and the witch doctor to observe the mountain spring.
As the tribe's only water source, she already had a basic understanding of the geography and terrain while living at Ana's house.
The reason she was brought here by the Ying chieftain and the witch doctor was simply to create a better opportunity for her to escape.
Li Qingqing glanced at Bai Ye, who had followed her, without making a sound, and then gestured to him.
Bai Ye understood immediately and quietly approached the Ying chieftain and the witch doctor in front of Li Qingqing.
Chief Ying and the witch doctor were completely unaware of the commotion behind them. They were both incredibly excited and just wanted to get the divine messenger to the mountain spring as quickly as possible.
As long as the divine messenger sees the mountain spring drying up, he will surely use his divine power to make the sweet spring flow again!
The chieftain and the witch doctor, filled with joy, hurried along when suddenly they both saw a huge pit not far ahead.
A pit? When did such a big pit appear on my own land?
Could it be... divine punishment?!
The Ying chieftain and the witch doctor's expressions changed drastically. They exchanged a horrified glance before turning to look at the divine messenger.
In the blink of an eye, Li Qingqing and Bai Ye acted swiftly and in perfect coordination.
Before the Ying chieftain and the witch doctor could even see what was happening, their bodies went limp, and they collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
Li Qingqing glanced down at Chief Ying and the witch doctor who had fainted at her feet, then reached out, removed her mask, and tossed it into her spatial storage, revealing a sly smile.
"Bai Ye, I have Wei Duhu under my control. Wait for me at the entrance of the path, and I will bring him to you later."
After sending Bai Ye away, Li Qingqing immediately strode towards the large pit.
She carefully examined the reservoir.
Good, good. Professional tasks should be left to professionals.
Although this reservoir is extremely simple, the bottom and walls have been compacted to a smooth surface, so storing water is not a problem at all.
A water diversion channel was dug along the direction of the spring, so that the spring water can be diverted to the reservoir in the future to continue to achieve the function of water storage.
The surrounding black scorched earth has been cleared and leveled, leaving no trace of the black fireball explosion.
As expected of her private engineering corps!
Li Qingqing immediately took action, pouring the spatial spring water into the reservoir.
Aside from its slightly sweet taste and clear, and the fact that long-term consumption of the spring water can slightly improve one's constitution, it has no other special or magical properties.
Although this once-in-a-century cold period has occurred, given the geographical topography of the Ying tribe, the springs will thaw on their own within a few days at most.
During the days when the spring was frozen, the water in this reservoir was still able to relieve the tribe's urgent needs.
This will only add credibility to her impersonation of the divine messenger. Ultimately, the one who will benefit is her, the newly appointed city lord of the border city who is "praised by the divine messenger."
Eliminating surrounding hazards effortlessly and gaining a friendly nation.
She's so clever!
After filling the reservoir, Li Qingqing didn't linger for a moment longer and quickly rushed towards the entrance of the path.
As for the Ying chieftain and the witch doctor who are still unconscious on the ground, they will wake up when the time comes.
Let the two of them get some fresh air and experience what it's like to catch a cold; perhaps then they won't be so foolish in the future.
As they approached the entrance to the alley, Li Qingqing pulled Protector Wei out of her spatial storage.
Bai Ye had been patiently waiting for Li Qingqing. When he saw her dragging Wei Duhu, who had been put to sleep, over, he immediately stepped forward and took him away.
"Wei Duhu is now in your hands. Just vent your anger and avenge your mother! Treat him the same way he treated you! As long as you spare his life, you can send him to Lord Zhang tomorrow morning."
Li Qingqing thought for a moment, then took out a large bottle of pills from her spatial storage and handed it to Bai Ye.
"Take this. If he's about to die, just give him one! This whole bottle of healing medicine is enough for you to vent your anger!"
white night:……
Is he worried that Wei Duhu will stab him with a sword?
Bai Ye silently took the medicine bottle.
Seeing that he remained silent, Li Qingqing smiled and explained,
"The reason why Wei Duhu's life was spared is that his crimes need to be tried publicly by the court's laws. His crimes must be made public to the world so that people know where justice lies."
And most importantly, once Wei Duhu's crimes are exposed, the injustice Qingli bears will naturally be revealed in broad daylight.
At that time, regardless of whether the emperor was willing to immediately issue an edict to exonerate the Qing family, at least the charge of "treason" could no longer be pinned on her.
Of course, there was no need to explain such a sensitive matter to Bai Ye.
After giving Bai Ye her instructions, Li Qingqing rushed back to the border city to find Li Feng.
Unexpectedly, the border city was in chaos at this time.
Li Feng was commanding the border soldiers in a military formation, facing off against the Xuanjia soldiers led by Vice Envoy Yao.
At the very front of the formation were shield bearers, their spears protruding from the gaps in the shields, pointing directly at the armored soldiers.
Following them were two rows of archers, their arrows nocked but not yet released.
When Li Qingqing squeezed to the front of the army formation, she saw Vice Envoy Yao standing with his sword in hand, his face flushed with excitement.
The line of soldiers behind him, dressed in neat black armor, usually only swaggered around the capital and had never seen the iron-blooded suppression of a military formation.
The swords they held trembled slightly, and they no longer possessed the imposing manner they had when they first arrived at the border city.
"Do you know what a heinous crime it is to surround and kill the border patrol envoy?!"
Deputy Envoy Yao's forehead veins bulged. "I will only arrest Li Feng. Everyone else, lay down your weapons immediately, and I guarantee that I will not pursue the matter!"
Li Feng snorted coldly, unmoved.
"Lord Zhang has already verified my innocence. What are your intentions in arresting me without authorization? Furthermore, this is a strategically important border region. What is your purpose in privately torturing and killing enemy prisoners?"
"Hmph, so you know this is a strategically important border area? As a general, you allow enemy prisoners to roam freely. Could it be that you have ulterior motives?"
Vice Envoy Yao sneered repeatedly.
"Lord Zhang has been poisoned, and Censor Ruan is missing. This deputy envoy has reason to suspect that it was done by enemy prisoners! It's just a matter of torture, just to get them to confess as soon as possible! Why are you making such a fuss?"
“You clearly take pleasure in torture and killing! It’s utterly insane and your actions are outrageous!” Li Feng coldly replied.
"How dare you! I, the deputy envoy, will do as I please, why should you question me?" Deputy Envoy Yao angrily pointed his sword at Li Feng.
"Try moving! If war breaks out, you will all die!"
Li Qingqing walked up to Li Feng and stood beside him.
"Does our general need to explain to you why he uses these prisoners? What can you do besides kill defenseless prisoners? You wouldn't even last ten moves against me, so what are you so arrogant about?"
Li Feng was taken aback when he heard the voice, but when he heard Li Qingqing's words of support for him without hesitation, his originally sharp expression softened.
He turned his head to look at Li Qingqing, a barely perceptible smile curving his lips.
When Vice Envoy Yao heard Li Qingqing's arrogant words, he also caught a glimpse of Li Feng laughing, as if mocking his incompetence.
This infuriated him, and the words that came out of his mouth sounded like they'd been pulled from an ice cellar.
"Li Qing! How dare you disrespect this Vice Envoy? You dare to fight me one-on-one?!"
"Ha! What is there to be afraid of?"
Li Qingqing looked coldly at Vice Envoy Yao.
"Lord Zhang has already cleared our name, yet you insist on sending troops to arrest us. If war breaks out, these soldiers behind you will only be your casualties. If you insist on a duel with me, I can agree, but on one condition: if you lose, get out of here first thing tomorrow morning!"
