Chapter 55

"Xiaoyou, are you willing to be the secretary of my Qiangong family?"

This sentence was really a bit abrupt, so much so that when Qiangongyu said it, Hua Lixiao once suspected that he had heard it wrong.

"Shangqing?!"

"Yes, the old man wants to invite you to be the secretary of my Qiangong family, I wonder if Xiaoyou is willing?"

Looking at Qiangongyu's deep eyes, Hua Lixiao fell into deep thought.

Is what this seemingly kind old man in front of him said true? Is he just greedy for the sword on his body, he doesn't have the slightest in-depth understanding of the person in front of him, but the other party seems to know everything about his behavior, and he doesn't know if other secrets on his body are prematurely exposed in the eyes of the other party, and whether it is a disaster to make himself the secretary of the Qiangong family······

Looking at Hua Lixiao's somewhat tangled eyes, Qiangong Yu smiled faintly and said: "Xiaoyou, please don't misunderstand, indeed, it is inevitable for people in the rivers and lakes to have some vigilance, but, the Qiangong family is commensurate with faithfulness, you saved the lives of dozens of people up and down my Qiangong family, I haven't had time to repay you, how can I think of you wrongly?"

Seeing that what he was thinking was guessed by Qiangongyu, Hua Lixiao no longer concealed it, and said directly: "Senior, the reason why I am hesitant to become the secretary of the Qiangong family, there is no lack of vigilance, but there is another reason, I don't like to be involved in the grievances of some clans, I still have an unfinished road, I will not stay too long in Beizhangyuan after all, it is my honor for my predecessors to be able to look at me, how can I ·······" Speaking of later, Hua Lixiao's words turned out to be a little embarrassing.

"Xiaoyou is afraid of getting involved in the relationship between my clan and the ghost family?" Qiangong Yu still guessed the meaning of Huali Xiao's words.

Hua Lixiao was never good at lying, and when he saw that the meaning of his words had been understood, he was silent, and just nodded lightly.

Qiangong sighed, and then said: "Your Excellency is dignified, just when you were a teenager, you are so extraordinary, and there is a powerful artifact, the future is unlimited, the old man thinks that none of the descendants of my Qiangong family can compare to you, this time I just hope that Your Excellency will give me a face for the Qiangong family, and it can be regarded as a return gift for me to repay Xiaoyou for saving the lives of my Qiangong family." ”

The words have come to this, Hua Li Xiao Jin is not, nor is he retreating, he knows that there is sincerity in Qiangongyu's words, but Huali Xiao's question about getting an accurate response Qiangongyu didn't mention a word in his words, obviously with a lot of room for maneuver.

"I have received the wishes of my predecessors, but I will have to embark on the journey again in a short time, and I will not stay again, I am afraid that I will fail the wishes of my predecessors. ”

"Xiaoyou, please rest assured, my Qiangong family's courtesy to Keqing is definitely not a problem, this time my Qiangong family really just wants to repay your kindness, as for the question of whether you are worried about grievances or grievances, I can only say that I hope that Your Excellency can stand in the position of the Qiangong family, and will not ask you to do something excessive, and I hope that Xiaoyou will not refuse. ”

In the end, Hua Lixiao couldn't stand the other party's soft grinding and hard bubbles, so he had to agree, but he put forward a request that it would not involve the Qiangong family too much if it was not necessary, and the Qiangong family still agreed.

Indeed, with the strength shown by Huali Xiao, as long as it does not fall prematurely in the future, it will definitely achieve a career, and Qiangong Yu obviously took a fancy to this, so he spared no effort to pull Huali Xiao into the camp of the Qiangong family.

Qiangong Yu is also generous, after winning over Hua Li Xiao, he immediately gave Hua Li Xiao a generous gift, including some rare medicinal materials, special space props, life-saving strange things, and two rare pills that were as rare as the pill given to Hua Li Xiao before, which really surprised Hua Li Xiao, thinking that the other party was really generous, this level of courtesy is rare in the big family.

After that, Qiangongyu chatted with Hua Lixiao about some family history and other issues, and was somewhat prevaricated by Hua Lixiao.

Soon, even at night, Qiangongyu did not stay with Hua Li Xiao for a long time, and after greeting for a while, he ordered someone to lead Hua Li Xiao back to his original room.

······

It was difficult for him to sleep that night, for some reason, but he felt very uncomfortable with this room, and quietly missed the straw mat in his thatched house.

For a moment, he was very repulsed by everything in this room, and at the same time, everything in this room seemed to be rejecting him.

"Heh~ I can't sleep!" Hua Lixiao lay on the soft bed, pillowed his head with his hands, looked at the ceiling, and for a moment he recalled the skylight on the top of the thatched house that could be opened.

The next second, he stood up, opened the window alone, and stepped out of the window.

Under the moonlight, a figure sat quietly on the eaves of the roof, looking at the bright moon hanging overhead, and there was an inexplicable feeling in his heart.

Beside him, two small beasts were lying on their stomachs leisurely, one already asleep, and the other was also staring at the bright moon, with the same brilliance flashing in their eyes.

The figure is impressive.

This kind of scene under the moon occasionally touched him very much, and he only felt that in the depths of his memory, this kind of scene was real, at that time, someone was by his side, but why, it was so vague.

Xiao Canglan was not interested in looking up at the starry sky or anything, and fell asleep very peacefully beside Hua Lixiao, but the stars were sinking, as if they could communicate with the bright moon, and with the fluctuations in its eyes, the round of the double moon disk on its body also rotated slowly, exuding a faint brilliance under this moonlit night where no one was around.

"Whew~ It's been a long time since I've been so comfortable..." Hua Lixiao's expression became soothed, and he casually put the sleeping little Canglan into a special bag.

"The one in the back, is it necessary to hide again?"

Xingshen also came back to his senses, quickly put away the double crescent, turned his head, and looked at the figure behind him that was getting closer and closer.

It was a white shadow, which looked a little dusty under the moonlight, but when she looked closely, she found that she covered her face with a white veil.

Hua Lixiao didn't look back, he was able to perceive the other party's basic information with the induction of Fanlu, so he knew that the other party was a woman, or a girl, and if his strength was not hidden, it should also be in the middle of the realm of sense, close to the late stage.

"Hmm, Xingshen, look at you so fascinated, is there still a beautiful woman on the other side..."

·······

Wrong!

Hua Lixiao's brows furrowed in an instant, and he immediately jumped off the cornice-

It was at that moment that a slender ice ridge swept over his head, almost grazing his scalp!

In other words, if Hua Lixiao didn't move just now, or if he was a step too late, he would be facing-

The house had three floors, and Hua Lixiao jumped from the attic above the third floor, and ran without any damage.

His reaction was quick, just a tap on the ground, and then he spun around, jumped onto the plane tree closest to him, and took advantage of the momentum, back to the floor, a few leaps, and back to the top of the third floor.

"Where to go!" Hua Lixiao snorted softly, seeing that the figure was about to retreat, he chased after him in a few steps.

The distance is shrinking, even if the Brahma spirit contained in that figure is a few points stronger than him, but in terms of use, it is obviously not as good as him who has been honed for a long time, and the distance between the two is getting closer and closer, and it looks like he is about to catch up-

The white shadow glanced back and saw Hua Li Xiao's figure clearly, and was about to speed up, but he didn't want Hua Li Xiao to be a streamer of light in his hand!

"Whoa—"

The streamer swept across her cheek and knocked down her veil, and it was at that moment that Hua Lixiao saw her face clearly.

Then, his pupils dilated suddenly!

He originally thought that it was at least ten seconds ago, this might be the master sent by the Ghost Sect to assassinate him, using a secret method to sneak into the realm of the Thousand Palace Family, but that face completely broke the previous conjecture!

Dream of a Thousand Palaces!

What, how could it be her?!

"Qiangong Meng, the eldest lady of the Qiangong family, how could it be you?!" Huali Xiao shouted, wanting her to stop.

Seeing that his identity was recognized, Qiangong Meng did not hide, but went around a circle, drifted a few steps backwards, stopped on the roof, and looked at Hua Lixiao.

No, Hua Li Xiao can see her eyes clearly, it definitely doesn't look like a killer's eyes, the watery eyes are just a kind of weakness, I don't know when there are tears, Hua Li Xiao has already felt the fluctuation of that brass spirit long before, there is no slightest sharpness in the gentleness, which is why he didn't take any precautions at the beginning.

To be honest, he still can't believe that this pitiful-looking Miss Qiangong could come to do such a thing.

"You don't have to ask anything," Qiangong Meng's hands were clenched tightly, almost gritting his teeth to speak, no matter how he looked at it, he looked like a lady, "Anyway, in short, next I, I will kill you!"

"Eh, what, is there some misunderstanding between us..."

"There's no misunderstanding!" Qiangong Meng suddenly went berserk in the next second, and a few small steps came towards Hua Lixiao, and a silver bell tied to his arm sprinkled a little light, turning into a curved blade several inches long, and swung out one after another!

"Hey!" Hua Lixiao was attacked, a little annoyed, but he still felt that there was some misunderstanding, at least how could this lovely eldest lady come over and kill him for no reason?

As the future heir of the Qiangong family, Qiangong Meng naturally has some ability, and the move of wielding the curved blade can be followed, which is obviously recorded in a certain Taoist law, advancing and retreating tangibly, and shrinking freely in a sharp way, even Hua Lixiao had to calm down and go all out.

However, he did not draw his sword and fell into a disadvantage in the hand-to-hand duel, facing the sharp curved blade only to dodge, and accidentally injured his left arm by the curved blade.

"Huh?" Hua Lixiao was shocked, the cut wound was not bloody, on the contrary, it was covered with a layer of ice-blue substance, preventing the blood from flowing out.

Soon, he felt that something was abnormal, and the Brahma Qi running in his own tendons was actually a little sluggish, so that his body shape and speed were gradually slowing down, losing his original agility advantage, and he was even more at a disadvantage.

No way!

Hua Lixiao gritted his teeth, no longer scruples so much, and directly urged the mysterious cold qi in his body, condensed a shield in front of him, and resisted Qiangong Meng's attack.

They are all practicing Bing Fan, but it is obvious that Hua Lixiao's attainments are better, and there is also a mysterious cold air, Qiangong Meng was blocked by the cold shield in a short period of time, and he couldn't get close, and his eyes were a little surprised.

"This guy..." Sennomiya Dream murmured.

Hua took a few steps back from Xiao Lian, and finally distanced himself from Qiangong Meng, and with a wave of his hand, the shield turned into gas again and returned to his palm, "That, I said..."

"Whew-"

A golden flying feather swept across Hua Lixiao's face, leaving a slender red line.

"Face..." Hua Lixiao's pupils suddenly widened to the maximum, a little surprised, but at that moment, he took a step and tried his best to dodge to the right-

It's just that at that moment, a flying feather passed by, wiping a trace of blood!

At the moment of falling, Hua Lixiao saw her clearly, and in her hand, there was a bow and crossbow!

It's an arm crossbow.

The so-called arm crossbow is a bow and crossbow based on the arm, which does not need extra hands to hold the bow and crossbow itself, and when the bow and crossbow are not used, the hand holding the bow and crossbow can also hold other instruments, and when shooting, as long as the bow is opened, the hand will be raised to aim, and the string can be pulled, and the rate is extremely fast.

I saw that the flying feathers were almost overlapping, connected into a horse, and it was impossible to prevent it.

"Damn," Hua Lixiao didn't forget to complain when he dodged one after another, "even if it's an arm crossbow, it can't be so fast, and-"

Hua Lixiao saw the movements of Qiangong Dream clearly, she had been repeating it, but it was just a string-pulling action, and she didn't take an arrow at all!

Moreover, what was shot was not an arrow in the traditional sense, but a flying feather with golden light, which was full of fluctuations in Sanskrit energy.

Could it be...

Spirit Bow?!

Spirit bow, is a general term for bows and crossbows with spiritual power, their launch is extremely peculiar, in ordinary times have the function of absorbing heaven and earth Brahman, it can usually absorb the Brahma gas storage, when the user pulls the bowstring quickly into "arrows", so omitted the process of taking arrows during the period, the rate is extremely fast, as long as your hand speed is fast enough, it is not impossible to shoot nearly ten rounds in the blink of an eye, and the power is amazing; The more powerful it is.

And now the flying feathers that Qiangong Dream keeps shooting are obviously "arrows".

Even if the extremely fast speed of Qiangong Dream will cause a single string pulling time to be extremely short, thus affecting the power of a single arrow, this overwhelming is really enough to cause great damage to the opponent!

After only a few dozen breaths, Hua Lixiao's body was painted again, and blindly dodging in that near-blind attack was not a good way.

"How can this be reasonable, kindness does not compare with you... Are you really trying to force me to do it?"

He hid behind a tree, but not for long, because the other side of the tree was already covered with flying feathers.

Suddenly, the whistling of the flying feather stopped, and it seemed that everything was about to come to an end.

However, Hua Lixiao didn't think so, and in his hands, condensed...

"Whew-" A sky-breaking arrow sounded, and at the same moment, Birch Xiao flashed out!

"Boom!"

The sound was loud enough for the entire Qiangong family to hear, only to see a golden feather phoenix fly out and crush the trunk of the tree that Hua Lixiao had just used to dodge!

Psychic! Hua Li Xiao was shocked again, what is the origin of that spirit bow, what is the origin of this Qiangong Dream Lady, what Miss Qiangong Meng took out is really rare and strong, this kind of psychic Sanskrit weapon has been seen by Hua Li Xiao so far, in addition to the spirit bow of Qiangong Meng, there is also the sword that Bai Lao gave him.

According to Hua Lixiao's speculation, the spirit bow of Qiangong Meng may have already broken away from the limit of the Sanskrit weapon and reached the stage of a "spirit treasure" level artifact!

I really underestimated her. Hua Li Xiao gritted his teeth.

But now he doesn't have time to complain, the opportunity is only in an instant, and the spirit bow is often in a longer or shorter recovery state after charging a blow, and now is the best time!

In his two hands, he held eight Bingling, which were shot out by him together, heading in the direction of Qiangong Meng.

Not far away, someone was already coming to hear the wind, and they could see the dark shadows moving on the roof of the house on that moonlit night, and the armored guards who were coming step by step on the street.

At the same time, ten zhang away from the opposite side, Qiangong Meng was obviously a little flustered in the face of the eight flying Bingling, but quickly stabilized her position, and blocked Bingling by constantly dodging and swinging her blade, but she still injured one leg, making her movement somewhat inconvenient.

It's time to reply!

Qiangong Meng pulled the bowstring again, and Hua was close to Xiao to a place that was only two or three feet away from her, and it only took a breakthrough to capture Qiangong Meng.

Until now, Hua Lixiao has not really moved the idea of ending the dream of a thousand palaces, even if the other party seems to be so desperate to kill him.

Time seemed to become very slow at that moment, and the movements of the two could be seen, Qiangong Meng had already pulled the strings, a flying feather was condensing, and Hua Li Xiao was a sudden advance, only a stone's throw away from her, and his hand was already clawed, but it was also completely exposed under the opponent's bow and crossbow.

Now, it's up to you to see who's faster!

"Huh-" A flying feather pierced the air, and it flew straight away from Xiao's eyebrows!

The two were moving in opposite directions, so the speed of the feather was faster than any of the previous ones, and he could see that the feather was getting bigger and bigger in his pupils, until—

Oops!

One step slower! Hua Li Xiao thought secretly in his heart.

However, the body can't react so quickly, that is, a shot within less than a kilometer, just blink, no, just fast, it can ······

Suddenly, a sky-high cold air rose from under Hua Lixiao's feet, surrounding Hua Lixiao's entire body, and the sky-rushing air directly blew away the flying feather, shaking it away!

Hua Lixiao naturally knows that the cold air does not belong to him!

Who is it?!

·······

"Meng'er, stop!"
