69 Sixty-ninth step
The two were busy all night, and when they returned to Qingliu Villa, they fell asleep, and they didn't wake up until Qiuxi and Xia Yang knocked on the door outside the door.
"What time is it?" Xiao Qiao pulled Hu Li into his arms, patted him on the back and let him continue to sleep.
"Back to the young master, it's already three o'clock." Xia Yang replied softly, he knew that even if her voice was a little young master, he would definitely be able to hear it.
"Well, go get a basin of water." Xiao Qiao half sat up, put Hu Li aside, pulled down the hair that rolled on his face, and chuckled to straighten out his sleeping posture.
Xiao Qiao saw that Hu Li was sleeping soundly, so he leaned on the bed for a while, and it was already noon when Hu Li woke up.
"Well, when is it?" Hu Li did it in a daze, because he didn't wake up much, and then the whole person fell crooked on the bed again. Xiao Qiao couldn't help but help him up, twisted the handkerchief and wiped his face, and after seeing him sober up a little, he replied, "It's past noon." ”
"Oh." Hu Li is still a little confused, although he doesn't need to sleep, but after falling asleep, he will always be confused when he wants to get up again.
The two washed their faces, and when Hu Li came to his senses and regained his vitality, they went to greet the old lady and Xiao's father. When I went, I heard my uncle and grandfather talking to the old lady about this martial arts conference.
"Speaking of this year's martial arts conference, the martial arts alliance leader will be re-selected, and the second sister also knows that the martial arts alliance leader has always been the leader of the entire Xianshan Island, so the demon gate has made a lot of efforts to grab the position of the martial arts alliance leader this time." Uncle and grandfather sighed, and said, "An Cheng has been busy with the affairs of the Demon Gate for the past few days, I heard that the second sister is back, and she is rushing back?" ”
"The master of the Demon Gate has been replaced by the eldest disciple of the previous master?" The old lady pursed her sideburns and frowned slightly.
"Exactly, the second sister also knows that he is the most ruthless, and I am afraid that there will be some twists and turns in this martial arts conference."
"Demon Gate, I don't think my uncle and grandfather have to worry about it." Xiao Qiao was originally silently playing with Hu Li's hand, but when he heard their conversation, he interjected.
"What?" Uncle and grandfather were stunned for a moment, and Xiao Qiao smiled, "Before I came, someone once checked the situation on Xianshan Island, so I asked people to contain the demon gate. My grandmother and father finally came to visit, and they couldn't let irrelevant people spoil the atmosphere. ”
Xiao Qiao said it easily, but Uncle and Grandpa didn't think it was really easy, they had been fighting with the Demon Gate for a hundred years. This time, I got the news early that the Demon Gate would make trouble at this martial arts conference, but I never found a suitable way to stop the people of the Demon Gate. And his junior, who had just met, said not to worry, was he exaggerating or was it really as he said?
In fact, my uncle and grandfather thought too much, Xiao Qiao didn't do anything to the Demon Gate, but just gave them some wrong information, so that they couldn't do anything "unruly" on the day of the martial arts conference.
Qi Ancheng, who is now the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, the son of their uncle and grandfather, ran outside for another two days before coming back.
"Auntie is here?" Qi Ancheng washed away the dust, raised his eyebrows and asked Luo Liu, who came to report, "That aunt who married into the imperial city?" ”
"It was the old lady, who said that she was old, and she didn't know if she would be able to come back from such a long journey in the future, so she brought her cousin and two young masters to come over and recognize the door." Luo Liu nodded and handed over Qi Ancheng's sword, "Not to mention the old lady and the cousin, just look at the subordinates, the two cousins are both dragons and phoenixes among people, and I told the old lady two days ago that there is no need to worry about the affairs of the demon gate." ”
"Could it be that the Demon Gate has stopped in the past few days, is it because of them?" Qi Ancheng's subordinates paused, "When will the lady and the young master come back?" ”
"I'll be back tomorrow." Luo Liu respectfully stepped aside, "Madame wrote to say that the young master is well, and there is no need to live in the Medicine Valley from time to time." ”
"Well, go meet your aunt and them." Qi An bundled his hair and walked out with Luo Liu.
Three days later, the martial arts conference was held as scheduled.
The conference is on the square not far from Qingliu Villa, there is a ten-meter-square stone platform on the square, which is the old place where Qingliu Villa has presided over the martial arts conference over the years. As soon as the morning dawned, many people came to the square one after another, and the people from all the major sects waited until the end to take their seats one by one.
"So many people?!"
Xiao Qiao saw Hu Li poking his head around, and felt that he was about to fall off the chair, so he reached out to wrap his waist around him, and said with a smile: "There are indeed a lot of people, but they are not many, and there are fewer than the original people." ”
"Why? It stands to reason that hundreds of years have passed, shouldn't there be more and more people? Hu Li looked at Xiao Qiao suspiciously, Xiao Qiao smiled and pinched the soft flesh on his waist, "This is the best, if there are too many people, it should attract the attention of others, and the attention attracted by the time may be good or bad." ”
"Oh." Hu Li nodded, he understood a little, but he still didn't understand much. However, he doesn't have the temperament to break the casserole in everything, if he doesn't understand, he doesn't understand, and he forgets when he turns his head.
Qi Ancheng, who was sitting next to them, glanced at them twice when he heard this, and then withdrew his gaze. His nephew is worthy of being a prime minister, and many people can't see these curves and curves until now.
"Has the imperial court made any recent moves?" Qi Ancheng looked at the two people below who were competing and asked, casually.
Xiao Qiao didn't reply immediately, the weather was hot, even if they didn't feel hot when they cultivated to protect their bodies, Xiao Qiao still handed Hu Li a cup of herbal tea and watched him drink it.
"Your Majesty has been busy expanding the territory recently, so I don't think I have time to come to Xianshan Island to have a look." Xiao Qiao thought of the relics and development plans of the previous dynasty that he left for Emperor Guangxi before leaving, and the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, hoping that His Majesty could really implement the so-called development plan within five years.
"Your Majesty has a lot of opportunities, and Xianshan Island is not blessed." Qi Ancheng put his mind at ease, in recent years, there have been a lot of fights and killings on the rivers and lakes, and they can't take care of themselves for the time being, but they don't want the court to intervene again.
Xiao Qiao didn't say anything more, but listened to Hu Li chattering about where there was a loophole in the two people in the competition below, and that trick was wrong and should not be used here. The two ended up to a draw, and Hu Li sighed, "They can still fight for a while, why did they stop?" ”
"They're just talking, and that's it." Xiao Qiao pulled Hu Li over and pointed to Qi Jing, who was sitting quietly on the side, "Go talk to Xiao Jing, don't look at it, you can see it when the powerful person comes out." ”
Hu Li nodded, turned his head and went to sit down with Qi Jing and talk. Qi Jing is Qi Ancheng's son, but he was poisoned by the enemy when he was a child, so his health has not been good, and he has to go to the Medicine Valley every year to live for a period of time to recuperate.
But if you underestimate Qi Jing because of this, just wait to suffer a big loss, although Qi Jing's health is not good, but his martial arts talent is amazing, even if he spends half of his time recuperating his body, he is now the best among the younger generation.
"Someone's coming." Hu Li was talking to Qi Jing about the scenery of Xianshan Island, but suddenly his ears moved, and he turned back to Xiao Qiao and said.
"What?" Qi Jing blinked, "Who's coming?" ”
"The people of the Demon Gate." A hint of coldness flashed in Xiao Qi'ao's eyes, but he still smiled on his face, "It's just in time, Xiao Li is bored." ”
Hu Li stood up and looked at Xiao Qiao with sparkling eyes, "Can I make a move this time?" He rubbed his hands together as he spoke, looking very expectant.
"Yes, it's okay, don't scruples, let go and fight if anyone doesn't like it." As soon as Xiao Qiao's words came out, Qi Ancheng, Qi Jing, and the old lady, the old lady and Xiao's father all looked over, what do you mean to beat anyone who is not pleasing to the eye, is it really okay to say this?
Only Hu Li's eyes were brighter, he looked at Xiao Qiao again, Xiao Qiao smiled and nodded, very supportive, "Start lightly, otherwise you won't have to play soon." ”
"Uh-huh, yes." Hu Li jumped on the stage on tiptoe, and the people below looked at Hu Li's unfamiliar face and buzzed to discuss.
"How do you know that the people from the Demon Gate are here?" Qi Ancheng didn't know why he didn't care at all when he saw Xiao Qiao and Hu Li, and even felt that the people in the Demon Gate would be a little miserable.
"I heard it." Xiao Qiao pointed to his ears and said with a smile, "Xiao Li and I may be close to other skills, but our ability to hear is okay." ”
Qi Ancheng silently took a sip of tea, they didn't hear that the people from the Demon Gate were coming, but they heard it, is this level just okay?
"People from the Demon Gate, I know you're coming, come out quickly." Hu Li stood on the stage and waited for a while, but he didn't see the people from the Demon Gate come out, so he shouted impatiently.
Suddenly, the whole square was silent, and then the whole square became even more noisy.
"Where are the people from the Demon Gate, let them get out."
"The people from the Demon Gate are here, be careful not to get hurt later."
"At a young age, grandstanding, where are there any people from the Demon Gate!"
As a result, as soon as the words fell, I heard an arrogant laughter: "Hahahaha, this is the major sects, it's better to be a child, a little young man, it's better to enter my demon gate to ensure that you enjoy endless glory and wealth." ”
As the words fell, a man in a black and purple cloak with a golden mask on his face stood in front of Hu Li, "How is it, little young man?" ”
Hu Li tilted his head, "Really?" I don't want to be glorious and rich, I just need spirit stones, spirit liquid, spirit beads and ten spirit grasses. ”
"What?"
It's not just that the people of this demon gate are stunned, but almost all the people present are stunned, what are these things that the little boy said?
Hu Li shook his head and sighed, "You don't have any, how dare you amplify your words!" As he spoke, Hu Li took a step forward, and the few people from the Demon Gate who came over at this step froze in place, unable to move.
Hu Li circled around them twice, turned around and went back to Xiao Qiao's side, muttering unhappily: "I tried what they said, and they couldn't help but click, so I clicked it." ”
Xiao Qiao smiled and hugged the person to his lap and sat down, regardless of the people in the various sects on the stage who laughed at the audience because the people of the Demon Gate were frozen in place, he put his forehead against Hu Li's forehead, and said with a smile: "Regardless of them, I will take you to other places to find out if there is anyone who can fight with you." I've heard that there is a diurnal creature on the Western Continent that has good abilities. ”
"When are we going?" Hu Li's arms were on Xiao Qiao's shoulders, and his narrow eyes were almost round.
"We'll go when we send my grandmother and father back!" 166 Reading Network
