"It's no pity, he's not sorry for me, if you prefer freedom, let him go. Chiaki said generously.

The strange frog looked at Qianqiu's expression, but he could still feel a trace of helplessness, so he asked, "This is the first time you haven't succeeded in the contract, right?"

"How did you find out about this?" asked Chiaki, looking up in some surprise.

"Because this is the first time I've seen a trace of loss in your eyes, you used to be full of confidence, but now it seems to be a little different. The strange frog said, "But what are these lava pangolins digging here?

Qianqiu shook her head and said, "If my brain was spinning so fast, I wouldn't have just let him go." ”

After all, Qianqiu's heart was still curious, and after saying this, he went back to the place where he had just dug a hole to take a look, and after some exploration, he found that there was nothing special.

"Maybe it's looking for something to eat. It's getting late, so let's go back. At this time, Qianqiu was upset and didn't have the heart to explore any further, so he said to the strange frog.

The strange frog is not in a state when he sees Qianqiu, so he can only give up.

With that, the frog returned to the contract talisman.

When Chiaki left the Fire Maple Forest, the pangolin that had been hiding behind the bushes jumped out, and when he saw Chiaki walking away, he smiled evilly again, and continued to dig his hole.

The days on the mountain were fleeting, and Qianqiu suffered some blows and did not continue to look for spirit beasts, but spent day and night forging and cultivating with magic beads.

The days soon came to the seventh day of the ninth month.

On this morning, everyone in the Eastern Sect became extremely busy, because the two commanders of the Blue Dragon Army sent by the imperial court were coming.

"A few of you go to the mountain gate to place some flowers, the mountain gate is deserted, and it is not too stumbling. The two Commanders should be here in the afternoon, so hurry up. Danhua commanded at various intersections in the sect.

"Senior Brother Danhua!" Xiao Wu trotted all the way and hurriedly came over, shouting as he ran.

Danhua grabbed Xiao Wu in a hurry, and said: "Xiao Wu, what kind of system is Cheng, you are also a junior brother who is not too big or small, which makes the junior brother and sister see it, and become a junior sister? So, what is it that makes you anxious like this?"

"The pathfinder disciple came to report that the people of the imperial court had arrived in Mochizuki Valley. Xiao Wu said.

When Danhua heard this, his brows furrowed, and he said: "I didn't expect that the footsteps of this Qinglong Army are so fast, so maybe they can reach the mountain gate before noon." Xiao Wu, you go and inform a few masters first, and then let the disciples who are arranged hurry up, and it doesn't require any grandeur, as long as it can reflect our sincerity. ”

"Yes, Senior Brother Danhua. After Xiao Wu finished speaking, he pulled out his legs and ran.

Danhua couldn't help but intensify his urging: "The guests will be here soon, do you hear that?"

Xiao Wu galloped all the way to the Descending Wood Hall: "Master, master." ”

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Lian Bo was also surprised, and he didn't know what made Xiao Wu look like this.

Xiao Wu stabilized his mind and said, "Master, the guests are already in Mochizuki Valley. ”

"Mochizuki Valley, the foot is fast, don't be in a hurry, Xiao Wu, you go and inform the other masters first, it's a guest, not an enemy." Lian Bo commanded calmly.

【Oriental Mountains, Mochizuki Valley】

A reorganized team, walking on the mountain road in a neat and orderly manner.

The team consisted of about thirty people, all dressed in uniforms, and although it was on a rugged mountain road, the formation was maintained quite well.

The two led by the two rode two tall horses, chatting as they walked.

Walking in the front was a stout middle-aged man, more than nine feet long, with a square face, a beard, a knife and axe on his face, full of old marks, and a huge axe while riding a horse, the giant axe was heavy, and even the BMW he was riding was a little tired.

This person is the commander of the Blue Dragon Army - Xue Xuzhao.

Xue Xuzhao turned his head slightly from time to time while riding his horse to talk to a younger man behind him who agreed to wear a military uniform.

Although the man riding in second place was not young, about eight feet tall, he looked more like a scholar than a soldier. But with some beard, he couldn't hide the arrogance of Gaiyun between his eyebrows.

At this time, he answered Xue Xuzhao's questions one by one with his eyebrows in his eyes.

This person is none other than the former disciple of the Oriental Sect - Han Shuangxue.

"Brother Han, how many years have you not been back?" Xue Xuzhao asked back.

Han Shuangxue immediately replied: "Brother Xue, I'm afraid it's been more than ten years. As soon as the words fell, his expression changed slightly, and his face changed slightly.

Xue Xuzhao laughed and said: "Brother Han, at your age, you can be regarded as making a difference in this position, such as the principle of returning to your hometown, your masters and brothers must be courteous to you, and you don't have to be too sentimental." ”

"What the eldest brother said is that it's just that Shuangxue is still worried about going down the mountain that year. Han Shuangxue frowned slightly and closed her lips.

Xue Xuzhao was a rough person and didn't understand the deep meaning of Han Shuangxue, so he could only comfort him and said: "In my opinion, Brother Han doesn't have to care too much, after all, the matter is over." ”

"That's what the eldest brother said. Han Shuangxue hurriedly smiled and replied.

"Big brother, in front of me is the Moon Valley in my Dongfang Mountain, let's take a rest with all the brothers, after all, we have been on the road for so many days. Han Shuangxue suggested.

Xue Xu listened to it, pouted his face, and said: "I think at the beginning, I and several other brothers ran for half a month overnight, rushed to the river, and fought for three days and three nights before we had to rest." With the strength of the rush in the past few days, if you want me to say, it's almost like playing. You say don't you?"

When the soldiers behind heard that it was the commander who spoke, they naturally replied energetically: "Yes!"

Han Shuangxue knew in her heart that the soldiers behind her were not comfortable, so she said: "Big brother, although it is said that the brothers' spirit is as good as yours, but the water in the Mochizuki Valley in front is notoriously sweet, let's rest for a while, taste the water, and then continue on our way." ”

When Xue Xu heard this, he also felt that there was some truth, so he ordered: "One mile ahead, drink water and rest freely by the stream." ”

Sure enough, as soon as Xue Xu spoke, the people under his hands let out a burst of cheers and rushed towards Mochizuki Valley.

Xue Xu took a look, his face was a little dissatisfied, and just about to have a seizure, Han Shuangxue hurriedly said: "Big brother, the brothers of the Blue Dragon Army have been fighting for years, and it is not easy to seize an opportunity, and it is also appropriate to relax." ”

Hearing this, Xue Xuzhao didn't have a seizure, calmed down for a while, and walked to Mochizuki Valley with Han Shuangxue talking and laughing.

The two men found a flat stone and sat across from each other, while one of them filled a kettle with some water and handed it to the two commanders.

"Commander Xue, there is still a half-day trip to this place from the Eastern Sect, I don't know when I need to arrive?" asked his men.

Xue Xuzhao poured a few mouthfuls of stream water violently, "wow", burped comfortably, and said: "Hugh Duoyan, Deputy Commander Han used to be a disciple of the Eastern Sect, do you know this better than him?" Retreat, retreat, go and rest." ”

"Yes, little mouthy. Deputy Commander Han certainly knows better than we do. After the soldier finished speaking, he and the two commanders each bowed, and then retreated.

"Brother Han, what is this sect competition, I still haven't figured it out. Xue Xuzhao peeled an orange and swallowed it in one bite.

Han Shuangxue said: "Big brother doesn't know, in the past, our cultivation sects would hold this kind of grand event every year to test the cultivation results of disciples, one is to test the cultivation results of this year, and the other is to select disciples to participate in next year's Ten Martial Arts Conference. ”

"I know that this is known as the No. 1 selection competition of my human race. Brother Chen of the White Tiger Army is the army that came out of the Ten Martial Arts Conference and was selected by His Majesty to join. When Xue Xu heard this, he immediately understood a lot, so he said.

Han Shuangxue nodded and continued: "Big brother is right, the Ten Martial Arts Conference can be regarded as the largest cultivator event today, and the strongest young talents of the human race will all appear in the Ten Martial Arts Conference. ”

Xue Xu listened to this, pouted and nodded, and said, "If you say this, I am a little interested in this Eastern sect competition. I think that at the beginning, the Oriental faction was also the number one faction in the world that flourished for a time! Later, due to the departure of the masters, the strength of the faction dropped greatly. However, having said that, when His Majesty sent you and me here, I was not happy, but now that I am here, I think about it, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and this trip will definitely not be boring. ”

"Along the way, the beautiful scenery of my Oriental Mountains has made my eldest brother look clean, hahaha. Han Shuangxue said.

Xue Xuzhao was even satisfied with Han Shuangxue's words, and said: "This Eastern Mountain Range has gathered a lot of spiritual energy, which is much better than the battlefield of Nalaoshzi. ”

"Big brother, little brother has one more thing to tell you. Han Shuangxue said.

Xue Xu looked at him and said, "Brother Han, it's okay to say, you and I have worked together for so many years, don't you understand my temper?

When Han Shuangxue heard this, she smiled lightly and said, "Big brother, have you ever heard of the Oriental Sect's Heavenly Peak. ”

"Then I naturally know that you and I are inseparable from the help of contract talismans in today's status, without the help of those brave and warlike spirit beasts, how can we help those demons?" Xue Xu waved his head and said.

Han Shuangxue continued: "Yes, this treasure of the Oriental Sect, have you ever seen it, big brother?"

"Not really, how could outsiders like me see that kind of thing. That Tianding has always been the current head of the Oriental faction, Yi Guzi's predecessors, he is an old man who is a sage of magic, who dares to fight that idea?"

"Big brother, if you can lift the heavens, the younger brother thinks that you must be more than just a small commander of the Blue Dragon Army. General Dongbai, the general in front of the palace, also has to be called a brother and sister to you. Han Shuangxue finally began to say her purpose cryptically.
