"Then I'll bother my sister!"
"Sister, please take care of me in the future!"
"This kindness will never be forgotten by Qingxiao."
In front of the courtyard gate of Qiao Qingzhi's residence, Chu Qingxiao bowed repeatedly under Liang Tubei's contemptuous eyes, and then said goodbye to Qiao Qingzhi.
Watching Chu Qingxiao's leaving back, Liang Tubei walked up, looked at Qiao Qingzhi and said, "Young Siming, I don't understand."
"This guy is just a follower of others. What is there that Shao Siming values so highly?"
Qiao Qingzhi shook her head, and the charming look on her face when she faced Chu Qingxiao disappeared and became cold.
"His identity is very special. For Supervisor Tiansi, such a chess piece is rare. Whether he is following the trend or really wants to do something for the people of Wuling City, as long as he is used well, Supervisor Tiansi can Do a lot of things that are inconvenient for you to do.”
Liang Tubei obviously didn't agree with Qiao Qingzhi's point of view. He frowned and said, "Young Master Siming is afraid that he is lying to us?"
"I always felt that guy was very scheming."
"Liar?" Qiao Qingzhi said with a smile: "Since Supervisor Tiansi dares to use him, he will naturally put a pair of shackles on him that can control him."
"If he didn't have this bit of skill, the Supervisor of Heaven would have long been reduced to dirt like the Supervisor of Heaven."
"At least for now, all he can rely on is Supervisor Tiansi."
"Such a chess piece is rare. Put aside your prejudices and look after him for me."
Liang Tubei was stunned when he heard this and looked at Qiao Qingzhi in astonishment.
Qiao Qingzhi smiled slightly and said no more.
…
Chu Qingxiao turned around and walked into a deserted alley.
About half a quarter of an hour later, when he appeared at the exit of the alley again, there were two more figures beside him.
One is an elegant man wearing a white gown.
One is a gentle-looking woman wearing a blue dress.
"Qingxiao, Qiao Qingzhi is obviously taking advantage of you on purpose, why are you..." Xue Sanniang looked at Chu Qingxiao and asked with a frown.
Qiao Qingzhi invited Chu Qingxiao to come and meet him. Liang Tubei specifically said that no one else was allowed to follow him. Although Chu Qingxiao thought that Qiao Siming had helped him in the Seventh Hall Trial, he would never harm him, but Chu Zhaozhao and others were still worried, so Let Liaoyuan and Xue Sanniang enter the divine pillar and follow Chu Qingxiao to prevent any danger.
Among the sacred pillars, Xue Sanniang naturally heard the conversation between Chu Qingxiao and Qiao Qingzhi very clearly.
Xue Sanniang was a little dissatisfied at that time.
That Qiao Qingzhi was quite pretty, but Chu Qingxiao trusted him too much, and even obeyed his words. Chu Qingxiao actually took some of the words that Xue Sanniang could hear as true.
She even secretly wondered whether her Mr. Chu liked a mature woman like Qiao Qingzhi. After all, Chu Qingxiao had never shown such an obedient attitude towards any woman in the past.
Thinking of this, Xue Sanniang frowned a little deeper, and she said with a bit of complaint: "Even if the young master likes her, he can't rely on her for everything. That woman seems to be very scheming, be careful of being betrayed by her." You don’t know it yet!”
On weekdays, no matter what Chu Qingxiao did, Xue Sanniang would only silently support him, help Chu Qingxiao in any way she could, and rarely raise any objections to his decisions.
But this time, Xue Sanniang's tone was obviously a bit dissatisfied, and she obviously misunderstood Chu Qingxiao's meaning.
Chu Qingxiao naturally felt this. He smiled bitterly and was about to explain.
"Miss Xue, you have misunderstood me." But before the words came out, Liaoyuan on the side said: "Your Majesty does not like that Miss Qiao, but to win her trust, so you do this deliberately."
Chu Qingxiao felt happy when he heard this. He looked at Liaoyuan with great satisfaction, secretly thinking that this book would be different the more he read it, and his vision would be very broad.
Thinking of this, Chu Qingxiao secretly puffed up his chest and was about to continue what Liaoyuan said.
But I heard Liao Yuan say seriously at this moment: "Miss Xue, don't even think about it. If your Majesty was an impatient person, he would have taken action against you long ago. Of course you wouldn't refuse. Your Majesty Jin Shui Tower has not made any move, so how could he do it?" Why would you rather go far away than what is near? Do you think you are right..."
Chu Qingxiao: "..."
Xue Sanniang's face suddenly turned red. She glared at Liaoyuan and said, "You are the only one who knows everything!"
After saying that, she stamped her foot and turned into a stream of black smoke pouring into Chu Qingxiao's body.
Liaoyuan was scolded for "for no reason", and his face suddenly showed confusion. He looked sideways at Chu Qingxiao in confusion and asked: "Your Majesty, I am clearly trying to clear up Miss Xue's confusion. The book says, Teacher, It’s just a matter of preaching, receiving karma, and solving doubts. It’s okay if she doesn’t call me sir. She has to thank me anyway. Why is she angry instead?”
Chu Qingxiao looked at Liaoyuan in front of him and felt a big headache. He reached out and patted Liaoyuan on the shoulder, looked at him seriously and asked: "Did the book tell you that a woman's heart is as deep as the bottom of her heart?"
Liaoyuan frowned and thought seriously. After a while, he said: "It seems there is..."
"A woman's mind is so complicated?"
Chu Qingxiao smiled and said meaningfully: "Of course there is. Start a prairie fire. You still have a lot to learn."
After saying this, he ignored the confusion on Liaoyuan's face, turned around and walked towards home with a smile.
…
The night is already dark.
The bustling Tianxuan City gradually became quiet.
But for many people, this day is very special. Perhaps hundreds of years later, when historians of later generations record this period of history, they will write about everything that happened that night.
And on such a night, some people are bound to have sleepless nights.
Lu Qi returned to Ganquan Peak.
He was a little tired.
Chu Qingxiao was right. He helped him tend to his injuries, but the red ghost power in the Ling Mansion was stubborn and had accumulated over many years. It would take a long time to nurse him back and slowly remove it.
Recently, when facing the desolation, Lu Qi was eager to save people and once again used the power of the red ghost, causing Lu Qi's injuries to worsen again.
When he returned to Ganquan Peak, his face was pale and his breath was weak.
He thought about going back to his place to recuperate, but as soon as he approached his small courtyard on the mountainside, he saw a figure standing there.
It's a girl.
"Ling'er!" Even though it was just his back, Lu Qi recognized the other party at a glance. He felt warm in his heart, secretly thinking that he had been away for a long time and made the other party worried, so he waited here.
With this thought in his mind, he hurriedly walked up.
At this moment, Zhou Ling'er heard the sound and turned back to look at him.
She also came up to him.
"Lu Qi! Are you going to make me mad to death!? Have you forgotten what day it is today?" Zhou Linger, who came to Lu Qi the next moment, pointed at Lu Qi with a cold face and started to curse.
Lu Qi was stunned, with a confused look on his face: "Today is it?"
Zhou Ling'er said angrily: "Today is Brother Xiang An's birthday! I clearly promised him that I would bring delicious food to Siguo Yaghang to celebrate his birthday with him!"
"It's good for you. You went out early in the morning and didn't come back until now. Did you deliberately leave Brother Xiang An alone?"
Lu Qi realized after hearing this that Zhou Ling'er had indeed mentioned this matter a few days ago, but so many things happened today that he forgot about it.
He looked apologetic and said: "Ling'er, don't be angry, there are indeed some important things today..."
"Is it important? I haven't seen anything important on weekdays. Today is Brother Xiang An's birthday, and you have something important to do? How come it's such a coincidence?" Zhou Ling'er, who was holding back his anger, immediately interrupted Lu She sneered at Qi's words.
Lu Qi was not good at words, and when he was scolded by Zhou Ling'er, he was even more overwhelmed. He wanted to spread his difficulties everywhere, but Zhou Ling'er did not give him a chance to say anything.
Zhou Ling'er continued to say this for about a quarter of an hour. Lu Qi lowered his head, standing there like a child who had done something wrong and was caught by an adult, not daring to say a word.
The anger in Zhou Ling'er's heart was mostly gone. She rolled her eyes at Lu Qi and said, "Now, come with me to Siguoya, and you can still catch up with brother Xiang An's birthday!"
When Lu Qi heard this, he said with a bitter look on his face: "Ling'er, think about the barrier on the cliff..."
"I know there is a barrier! Otherwise, why would I wait for you? Why don't I just ask you to help me open the barrier?" Zhou Linger said.
Lu Qi said: "But I may not be able to open the barrier today..."
His physical condition was extremely bad, and it was even possible that his physical condition deteriorated so quickly because he used too much red ghost power to help Zhou Ling'er open the barrier.
If Zhou Ling'er encountered danger, Lu Qi would not hesitate to use the power of the Red Ghost at the risk of being devoured by the Red Ghost.
But the matter in front of him was obviously not so urgent.
"Lu! I have already forgiven you! Do you still want to shirk the blame?"
But when Zhou Ling'er saw Lu Qi's unwilling look, she felt even more aggrieved. She stamped her feet and said, "Today you came home late on purpose, and now you have to find excuses to shirk it!"
"Lu Qi, have you ever thought about how lonely Brother Xiang An is staying alone in Siguo Cliff today? How can you be so selfish?"
After Zhou Ling'er said this, she seemed to think of how lonely and pitiful her brother Xiang An was. Her eye circles turned red, and big tears fell down from the corners of her eyes.
"Grandpa doesn't help me either, so he only helps outsiders to make things difficult for Brother Xiang An!"
"You didn't help me either. You knew today was such an important day, but you still avoided me on purpose!"
"good!"
"In this case! I will force myself to cross the cliff!"
"At worst, let Si Guoya's sword formation kill me! Then no one will bother you!"
The sword formation barrier in Siguo Cliff is extremely fierce. There has been a precedent for a disciple to break through and be injured by the sword formation, leaving him with a lifelong disability.
And Zhou Ling'er has a spoiled temperament, and it is indeed possible for her to do such reckless things in a fit of anger.
Lu Qi's expression suddenly changed, he didn't care about anything else at the moment, he hurriedly chased after him and said loudly.
"Ling'er!"
"Don't be impulsive!"
"I……"
"I'll help you this time!"
