......

Northwest of Huaiwang City

On the side of the ancient road, under the dead trees

Chen Tian leaned against the trunk of the dead tree, still unconscious, Jiu Zhen looked worried, looking left and right

"Senior He, my boss will be fine, right? It's not a joke that the soul is injured!"

On the other side of the dead tree, a sloppy old man in tattered clothes was eating and drinking, and his mouth was slurred: "Don't worry, I will definitely not make a mistake when I make a move, at most he will be shaken, and he will be able to recover after resting." ”

Chen Tian's body trembled slightly, and he woke up slowly, and the first thing he saw was a familiar face

"Ahem...... Didn't you run away, why did you come back?"

Hearing this, Jiu Zhen was not happy: "Boss, what do you mean by running away? At that time, I can't beat Qiu Cheng, besides, if I hadn't met He Xuyan's predecessors and begged each other, your life and death are still unknown!"

Rubbing his painful eyebrows, Chen Tian glanced at He Xuyan, who was eating roast chicken and drinking wine beside him, and said with a wry smile: "Which one did you ask for, and Senior He has been following us." ”

"You're smart!" He Xuyan glared at him with an unhappy face: "If you don't follow you, you can't do it, who let that Ge Baili target you!"

Jiuzhen pouted, he was not a fool, he could naturally guess this, otherwise how could there be such a coincidence that he happened to meet He Xuyan.

He Xuyan got up and patted his body: "Okay, you're awake, I should go too!"

"Anyway, this time I still have to thank my predecessors, twice for saving my life, he will definitely spring up in return!" Chen Tian suddenly straightened up

"Do you want to repay the spring, wait until you step into the Xuan Realm and say this again!" He Xuyan's eyes were playful, and he said: "That Ge Baili's physical body has been destroyed by me, and his soul is also extremely weak due to repeated seizures, and he can't recover without more than ten years of cultivation, so you don't have to worry about your safety for a short time, but you have to work hard to cultivate, otherwise there will not be anyone to help you next time you encounter this situation!"

Chen Tian bowed his head heavily, and he was also deeply touched by the constraints of others several times

"Having such a pure soul power with the cultivation of the Spirit Channeling Realm will give you a slight advantage that outsiders don't have, but try not to reveal this secret. He Xuyan was satisfied, gave an instruct, and suddenly threw Chen Tian a jade bottle: "I used you as bait to lure Ge Baili to appear, this is compensation for you!"

Why don't you say anything, strolling into the distance, a few breaths disappear from view.

After seeing He Xuyan leave, Chen Tian probed the jade bottle and wrote three words on the door: Soul Nourishing Pill!

It contains a pill with a round color, and the whole body emits a white millilight. When he opened the bottle, a whimsical idea suddenly floated out. Hearing it was refreshing, and Chen Tian felt that the pain in his eyebrows had weakened a little.

"Four pins of pills! Why do you have to say that you are so reluctant, you actually took out all the four pins of pills!" Jiu Zhen's saliva was about to stay, and he got closer, staring at the pill with a pair of eyes

"Sipin, are you sure?"

"Absolutely can't be wrong! The third grade can be fragrant for a hundred miles, and the fourth grade will appear Danmang! This soul-nourishing pill is definitely a four-grade pill!" "Jiuzhen's hands began to rub the jade bottle, and his saliva almost flowed

Chen Tian quickly put away the Soul Nourishing Pill: "I'll tell you, don't fight the idea of this pill, my soul is damaged and it is now the time when I need it most." ”

"I can't look at it yet!" Jiuzhen glanced at him and asked, "Where are we going now?"

"Of course, it's to leave the Heavenly Sword Kingdom!"

After Chen Tian recovered most of his physical strength, he and Jiuzhen hurried day and night, just because they were worried that Qiu Cheng would go and return, in that case, it would be sad

Finally, seven days later, the two arrived at the border river, and couldn't help but show joy

However, a back by the river made this joy dissipate in a blink of an eye

This back Chen Tian is no stranger.

The man sensed the arrival of the two, turned around, and his eyes were complicated: "I wonder if Chen Tian Xiaoyou can take a step to speak?"

"Boss, be careful of deception!" Jiuzhen stopped his arm, his face unkind

"Don't worry, if he still wants to be against us, he won't have to wait until now. ”

Chen Tian walked to Qiu Hao's side and stood still

The latter looked at Chen Tian's gaze and admired it more and more: "Xiaoyou has such a mind and spirit at such an age, which makes Qiu admire"

"General Qiu is waiting for us here, he won't just praise me, right?" Chen Tian laughed to himself

"Here, there are two purposes, one is to make amends, and I was blinded by the demon before, and I almost made a big mistake. Qiu Hao said and took out a spirit sword and an animal skin: "A little gift will be given to Xiaoyou!"

The moment he saw the spirit sword, Chen Tian's eyes flashed, this was a high-grade spirit sword, and it was a mid-level. There are few such spirit swords with the background of the Qiu family, and now they are willing to take it out, that beast should be a set of martial arts, which can be given together with a high-grade spiritual weapon, and the level is also a high-grade martial art

This kind of thing is exactly what he needs now, and it is not hypocritical, Chen Tian took it generously, anyway, the Qiu family did too much to himself, but he also helped the Qiu family.

"The first goal has been achieved, but what about the second?"

Qiu Hao smiled: "Second, it's for the little girl Feng Yi, presumably the little friend also knows that Feng Yi has an unusual attitude towards you." My father and I are old, we are both old and confused, and we don't care enough for this daughter of mine. I'm ashamed. ”

Sensing that Chen Tian's complexion had not changed, Qiu Hao also cautiously continued to speak: "Feng Yi has been showing herself as a man all these years, and even when she faced us for a long time, she has never shown her daughter's body, but she only showed her true side to Xiaoyou......"

"So you should be more caring, it's useless to tell me!" Chen Tian finally smelled a hint of something else, but still pretended not to know

Qiu Hao simply said directly: "Xiaoyou can't see it, Feng Yi, she has more than a friend for you! Girl Huaichun This is human nature, I think Xiaoyou is also very enthusiastic about Feng Yi, it is better to be engaged, you know that my Qiu family has no children, and everything that can be done in the future of the Qiu family is Xiaoya and Fengyi......"

"General Qiu!" Chen Tian directly interrupted: "Feng Yi is a living person, she has the right to choose happiness by herself, not that you use her as a bargaining chip and decide at will!"

Previously, Chen Tian was captured, Qiu Cheng wanted to extract his soul power to help Qiu Hao achieve his spirit in one fell swoop, but unfortunately he was interrupted by He Xuyan, Xu was afraid of He Xuyan's majesty, or Chen Tian's potential, the Qiu family came to make amends, resolve the grievances between the two sides, and even wanted to firmly tie up Chen Tian at the cost of Qiu Fengyi's engagement.

In this way, in the future, he may be able to link such a strong person as Chen Tian to why not

Chen Tian can naturally think of this, and he is also very disgusted with these worldly schemes, if there is no need to say anything, how can the Qiu family have such a change of attitude?

"It's Qiu Mou who is abrupt!" Qiu Hao was interrupted, was silent for a moment, and sighed: "My Qiu family's Shenji Battalion has branches in the capitals of various countries, and this token is a guest order of my Shenji Battalion, and with this order, you can seek a piece of information!"

Qiu Hao said and stuffed another iron token!

"At the time of parting, can General Qiu answer a few questions for you?" Chen Tian's subordinate token looked at Qiu Hao

"Xiaoyou has the answer in his heart, do you still need to ask?" Qiu Hao's eyes were deep, looking at the sparkling river reflected by the afterglow of the setting sun.

General Qiucheng disguised himself as a jack-of-all-trades, and then revealed the news of the Shenji Battalion, and guided us to find the Shenji Battalion step by step! Then, using the ancient sage military book as bait, he tempted the spies of the Three Kingdoms to follow, and when he was in the Shenji Battalion, the giant spirit rat appeared at the right time to disrupt the situation, and then let Qiu Bufan's predecessors go out and capture them in one fell swoop.

And the origins of the spies of these three countries are not trivial. The general can use this to threaten him in the later situation, and I guess the reason why the troops of the three countries suddenly withdrew in the first place had something to do with these spies, right?"

"There are also two third-order demon beasts, I once met in the Mysterious Bamboo Forest, the waterhole in the bamboo forest is connected to the border river, and there are waterways between them, I have never understood how these waterways appeared, but when I saw the appearance of the giant spirit rat on the battlefield, everything became clear, the third-order giant spirit rat and the demon insect are all from the bamboo forest.

These waterways have traces of acquired excavations, and they must be the masterpieces of the giant spirit mouse. The dark river under Jiuhua City leads directly to the bamboo forest, and the Qiu family has been operating Jiuhua City for many years, which must have been known when the city was selected, so there will be the birth of the border river. And those strange soldiers who suddenly detoured behind enemy lines and won by surprise also entered the bamboo forest through Linghuai and came out of the border river. ”

"And everything related to the army, from the moment the ancestors of the Qiu family settled in Jiuhua City, they began to prepare, right? The Shenji Battalion has never disappeared, and General Qiu Cheng has been incognito for thirty years, just for today's war. Using the ancient holy military book as bait, find out the secret agents of the Three Kingdoms, attract the Three Kingdoms to send troops, let the Jiuhua Army show weakness to the enemy, deliberately be captured, and win by surprise at the critical moment. After nearly a hundred years of operation, this southwest land seems to be the foundation of the Qiu family, and the Du family can't take it away no matter what. ”

"Haha" Qiu Hao stroked his palms and smiled, and said approvingly: "Yes, yes, it's really rare that you can see it so clearly." Your inferences are basically correct!"

"There are a few things I haven't figured out! Why does the matter of the Shenji Battalion need my appearance? Since the Qiu family decided to raise troops, why did they help the royal family fight in the first place, General Qiu can't say that he was forced to be helpless, and this kind of ghost doesn't believe it!"

Qiu Hao put his hands behind his back: "Hehe, the reason why I need you is because my Qiu family secretly contacted the Tianfeng Country and wanted to establish an alliance with it, but unfortunately I couldn't agree at the time, but at that time, you happened to appear, so I will plan and secretly leak the matter of the Tianfeng Country, and also fake the illusion that you are the envoy of the Tianfeng Country, which is not trivial." Otherwise, it was just an ancient holy soldier book, but it couldn't move the heirs of those families.

As for helping the royal family, I have to do it as a last resort, my Qiu family has been planning for a hundred years, do you think it's just to overthrow the Du family?"
