Outside the Thousand Needles Pine Forest, Zong Xi finally caught up with Lou Qingyao, grabbed her arm and said:
"Miss Lou, wait! Listen to me..."
"open!"
Lou Qingyao shouted with a cold face and slapped him at the same time. Zong Xi, who had suffered twice, finally had a good memory and ducked away with a sideways glance. He then grabbed Lou Qingyao and slapped him. The hand also grabbed it.
"Miss Lou, I have misunderstood you. Just listen to what I have to say..."
"Let go! Listen to what you have to say. Since you are suspicious of me, there is nothing to say!"
Zong Xi said anxiously:
"Miss Lou, think about it... Sigh... If Zong doesn't have you in his heart and just wants to play a game with you, how can I care so much after hearing my father's words?"
Hearing what Zong Yi said, Lou Qingyao finally stopped fighting with him and let Zong Yi grab her hand. Seeing this, Zong Yi continued:
"Miss Lou, fortunately our misunderstanding has been eliminated. Zong Mou admires you very much after hearing about your past. Alas, I don't have the courage like you. I made a mistake. Zong Mou wants to apologize to Miss Lou..."
After hearing this, Lou Qingyao curled his lips and sneered:
"So what, if we can't get that Qingluan egg, everything will be in vain..."
After hearing this, Zong Xi still didn't understand something, so he asked:
"Miss Lou, I still have some things that I don't understand. I would like to ask Miss Lou to help me clarify my doubts today. I am curious as to why Miss Lou must get the Qingluan egg, because that Qingluan is a spirit that is hard to find in the world. Bird?"
Lou Qingyao caught a glimpse of Zhang Yi chasing after Zong Xi, and said:
"I knew you wanted to ask this, let me go first..."
Then she rubbed her slightly painful wrists with both hands, smiled bitterly, and said:
"Alas, Qingluan's egg, the thing I have dreamed of before, alas!"
At this time, Zong Xi did not notice that Lou Qingyao described Qingluan's eggs as her previous dream, and just listened blankly.
After sighing heavily, Lou Qingyao continued;
"When I first came to Wuling Sect, I thought I would return to the Lion Forest if I could find the Qingluan Egg. With it, my status in the Lou family would be absolutely different. With Qingluan, I would be qualified to serve as the I have spoken for myself. Brother Zong, you must be a spirit-controlling monk. You don’t understand the importance of a rare spiritual bird and spirit beast to a spirit-controlling monk. Well, let’s put it this way, my qualifications are not weak among the Lou family. All the spirit beasts were hard-earned for me by my elders, and they were all rare and precious species in the Lion Forest. I was complacent about this before, and even before coming to the Five Spirits Sect, I didn’t know about the spirit beasts here. Disciple takes it seriously. But...you also saw me a few days ago. I was defeated by Shangguan Hong first, and then by Tang Ping. Then Shangguan Hong was fine. After all, his cultivation was higher than mine. Some, and what about Tang Ping? Tang Ping’s cultivation is obviously not as good as mine, but I was still no match for her at that time, do you know why?”
Tang Ping, who was mentioned by Lou Qingyao, was not far away from her. She had been listening and watching quietly. Tang Ping naturally knew why she could defeat Lou Qingyao. This woman's spirit beast was not bad, but compared to The ones in Tang Ping's spirit beast bag were a bit inferior. Not to mention Lou Qingyao's defeat to Tang Ping, many disciples of the elders of the Yuling Sect had the strength to defeat Lou Qingyao.
Zong Xiang was present at the two competitions that Lou Qingyao mentioned and saw them completely, so he said:
"Is it because... Tang Ping's spiritual beasts are better than yours?"
"For this reason, I have watched your Cheng Guan En Trial. In my opinion, Tang Ping's spirit beasts are almost the best among the spirit beast disciples who have appeared on the stage. They are even better than those of Shangguan Hong. Now You should understand, how important the spiritual beast of the spiritual monk is, not only related to the monk's own methods, but the most important thing is that spiritual beasts like Qingluan can also directly affect the cultivation progress of the spiritual monk who owns it. , it’s really important.”
"Understood," Zong Xi nodded after hearing this, and then solemnly said to Lou Qingyao, "I will do my best to help Miss Lou find the Qingluan egg."
"No, Brother Zong," Lou Qingyao shook his head and said, "You didn't understand. What I just said was that Qingluan's eggs were something I had dreamed of before, but now they are no longer..."
"Why...why..." Zong Xi suddenly became nervous, thinking that Lou Qingyao was still angry with him or that he had already decided to leave and must return to the Lion Forest. He said anxiously, "Now that our misunderstanding has been eliminated, is it possible?" Does Miss Lou want to go back?"
Lou Qingyao took a deep breath, and the next words were the most important. She said:
"Qingluan's Egg is no longer the thing I dream of, but something very important to me. Brother Zong, I forcibly stayed in the Five Spirits Sect on the hundred-year consecration ring. Soon after, someone gave it to me in the Lion Forest. Letters from my elders came here. It may be that the elders in my family feel that I am too unruly and unruly and disobedient to discipline. The previous events plus the matter of staying in the Five Spirits Sect this time have made them impatient with me. I wanted to give up, but I was unwilling to do so, so I made a condition to me. If I could find the Green Luan Egg in Wuling Sect and hand it over to them, they would no longer have anything to do with my affairs. The marriage contract made for me will also be settled by the elders of the family, and I will be free from now on..."
Zhang Yi was not too far away from Zong Xi and Lou Qingyao at this time. He also heard these words and couldn't help but feel happy. Regardless of whether Lou Qingyao's words were true or not, but when she said them, Zong Xi will definitely believe it. Since the egg of Qing Luan can be exchanged for Lou Qing Yao's freedom, Zong Xi will definitely make up his mind to help Lou Qing Yao. Then those who deal with Qian Chao can get it from Zong Xi. A lot of help.
Tang Ping was nearby, and she naturally heard Lou Qingyao's words, and her heart sank, secretly thinking that if it was true as Lou Qingyao said, there would be more trouble in the future.
Only when Li Jian heard Lou Qingyao speak, although he couldn't see it, he immediately frowned after hearing what Lou Qingyao said.
It was almost impossible to lie in front of Li Jian. Under his induction, Lou Qingyao was very responsive when she told her past experiences. Moreover, Lou Qingyao did not hide her emotions at all at that time, whether they were intense or violent. Her anger was clearly expressed, and it was because of this that she infected Zong Xi. But only when he said that Qingluan's egg could buy her freedom, Li Jian immediately became acutely aware of the changes in Lou Qingyao's heart. When he said these words, Li Jian found that Lou Qingyao had deliberately maintained The inner peace, and the careful attention to Zong Xi's reaction, and the feeling of being cautious and worrying about gains and losses at the critical moment were all clearly detected by Li Jian, so Li Jian concluded that Lou Qingyao was lying!
At the same time, Li Jian also noticed that Zhang Yi's expression, who was slowly chasing Zong Xi and Lou Qingyao, also changed after hearing these words. Zhang Yi's expression seemed to relax a lot immediately. This should be It was out of his understanding of Zong Xi that he concluded that Zong Xi would definitely fall into Lou Qing Yao's trap.
As expected, Zong Xi was overjoyed after hearing Lou Qingyao's words, and his eyes instantly shone with a strange look. He asked:
"real?"
What Lou Qingyao said before did not make Zong Xi understand how important the Green Luan Egg is to Yuling Monk, but when he heard Lou Qing Yao say that the Green Luan Egg could exchange for her freedom, Zong Xi Only then did he realize how important the egg was to him. As long as he helped her get the egg and give it to her elders, then Miss Lou could stay with him in the future, and this was Zong Xi Something I can only dream about now.
At this moment, Li Jian could clearly detect Lou Qingyao's feeling of relief.
"Brother Zong, do you think there is still a chance?" Lou Qingyao hid his emotions and said, "Now we all know that your parents will not help you, and my elders are even less likely to come to Wuling Sect to help me. You and I are now There is nothing we can do, my trip to the Five Spirits Sect is in vain, why don't you and I just let it go, so as not to cause more troubles in the future..."
"No!"
Zong Xi interrupted Lou Qingyao, as if he had made up his mind, he stared at Lou Qingyao and said:
"Indeed, we don't have the upper hand in finding Qingluan now, but we have no way, others may have ways. This matter is not completely hopeless. Miss Lou, let me think about it... there will definitely be There’s a way!”
Even so, Zong Xi could come up with a solution in a short time. At this time, Lou Qingyao seemed to inadvertently look over Zong Xi's shoulder and glanced back, then immediately moved his gaze back. to Zong Xi's face.
In such a short moment, Li Jian immediately noticed Zhang Yi's gentle nod not far away, and then came towards Zong Xi.
Sure enough, there is a connection, Li Jian secretly thought.
Zhang Yi stopped behind Zong Xi and said:
"Brother Zong, Miss Lou, although I wasn't nearby just now, I heard something. Isn't Brother Zong worried about how to deal with those people in Chao Chao?"
This is the difference. Lou Qingyao and Zong Xi always focus on Tang Ping, because among the five people, Tang Ping is fighting with Lou Qingyao for the Qingluan egg, and it was Tang Ping who defeated Lou Qing earlier. Medicine, and what Zhang Yi said was Qian Chao.
"Not bad, why, does Brother Zhang have any good ideas?" Zong Xi asked.
"It's not a good solution, but it's still a solution, and... only my elder brother can do this."
"What can you do? Please tell me." Zong Xi asked urgently.
"Haha, Brother Zong may have forgotten all this in a moment of impatience. There are a few people who may be able to help us. Do you remember those people Zhu Yuan and Wei Gelin?"
After Zong Xi heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and said somewhat nonchalantly:
"This...can they do it?"
"Brother Zong, it is impossible for us to enter the forbidden area like Qian Chao and the five people. From this point of view, Miss Lou's chance is only in their hands. Let's fight for it together. But with the few of us, I'm afraid It’s not easy to succeed. Well, those people happen to be asking for help from the clan brother, maybe they will be willing to help, right? Besides, there may be other ways, but this is the only thing that comes to mind at the moment. You might as well work with the clan brother first. They come here, and then either we will come up with another solution or those people will come up with some good solution."
Seeing the hesitant look on Zong Xi's face, Lou Qingyao was also curious about the two people mentioned by Zhang Yi, so he asked:
"Is there anything extraordinary about these people mentioned by Brother Zhang?"
Zong Xi replied:
"Hey, they are all...all were expelled from the sect after doing some things they shouldn't have done. Well, those people's methods are really amazing. I have some friendship with them, and they have always hoped that I can Find a way to bring them back to the Five Spirits Sect."
What Zong Xi said was still not very clear. Lou Qingyao looked at Zhang Yi again and asked:
"What did those people do that they shouldn't have done?"
Zhang Yi looked at Zong Xi and saw that he didn't answer, so he said:
"Those people secretly practiced forbidden arts and, um, even killed people, so they were expelled. And before they were expelled, they had a good relationship with the clan brother."
"Can they... be more powerful than those like Tang Ping?" Lou Qingyao asked, this was what she cared about.
"Miss Lou, there must be forbidden arts that disciples are not allowed to practice in the Lion Forest. If the family members of those people hadn't paid a heavy price after their accidents, I'm afraid they would have died long ago. I can only say that it is very possible for them to practice Only those few among the Qi disciples can suppress the five Qian Chao."
"I see."
Lou Qingyao nodded and said, then looked at Zong Xi.
Seeing that Zong Xi had been thinking, Zhang Yi said again:
"Why don't we go back first and discuss it later? It's useless to post here."
"Then..." Lou Qingyao looked up at the Thousand Needles Pine Forest in the distance and seemed a little reluctant to leave.
"Brother Zong, Miss Lou, waiting here will not help. Even Shangguanhong has left. He must have gone back to find a way. Qian Chao and the five people don't know when they will come out. This Thousand Needles Pine Forest is so dense. Big, we don’t even know where those five people came out from, so instead of waiting here, why don’t we go back and discuss it later?”
Zong Xi thought for a moment and then said:
"good!"
