Qu Lantian's garden was not very large, but it was very clean, and the state of each spirit grass was very good, and Yan Xiao even found a few of the herbs that he needed to refine the elixir for the Snow Ice Wolf in the first place. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

It can be seen that the owner here is very concerned about the care of this back garden.

"Our city lord is very precious to these spiritual grasses of his, and he personally serves them on weekdays, if he is in retreat and cultivating, I will take care of them for him." Qu Hao saw the look of admiration on Yan Xiao's face, his tone was very brisk, and he seemed to be very interested and satisfied with this spiritual plantation.

Qu Hao said as he made a "please" gesture to Yan Xiao and the others, and Yan Xiao and the two understood it, so they cautiously walked inside.

As soon as he walked into the small door separated by a rattan fence on the periphery, Yan Xiao saw a person bowing down in a corner, carefully investigating the growth of the spirit grass in front of him.

With such a serious look, Yan Xiao and Ning Yuan didn't dare to step forward to disturb him easily.

When Qu Hao saw it, he just stood aside respectfully and waited, and glanced at Yan Xiao and the others, signaling them to wait.

For this serious attitude, Yan Xiao has a respectful heart, so she has no complaints about it, and she is even a little happy, she actually saw Qu Lantian such a side.

From the information she learned, Qu Lantian was a wanton, moody, but powerful city lord. From the last time she vaguely saw love in his eyes, the image of Qu Lantian in her heart began to be a little shaken, and this time, she had a deeper understanding of Qu Lantian.

Qu Hao, who was waiting on the side, also looked at his master with some admiration. The master of his family will have a rare seriousness at this time.

Qu Hao sighed silently in his heart, feeling a little envious of Yan Xiao and Ning Yuan's ability to see this side of the city lord's character from the beginning.

I think that at the beginning, he was ravaged by the city lord for a long time, and finally saw the serious appearance of the city lord!

Qu Lantian's obsession with spirit grass seems to be deeper than Yan Xiao's imagination. Within half an hour of their entry into the back garden, Qu Lantian didn't even glance at them, and devoted himself to his spiritual cultivation world.

"You're here?" Half an hour later, Qu Lantian raised his head, glanced at Yan Xiao and the two lightly, and said very calmly.

This sentence makes people feel that he seems to have just discovered the arrival of the two, but the calm tone makes people feel that he has already noticed the arrival of the two, but he has no time to deal with them.

"Why just the two of you?" Qu Lantian didn't wait for Yan Xiao and the two to answer, and suddenly frowned, and then he turned his head to look at Qu Hao, "Didn't you ask three people to come together, why just the two of them?" ”

Obviously, Qu Lantian mistakenly thought that this was Qu Hao's mistake.

Qu Hao trembled, knowing that the city lord was a little annoyed. The lord of the city hates the kind of person who is not good at doing things.

"Don't blame this senior, the city lord, this matter has nothing to do with the senior." Yan Xiao saw that Qu Lantian was not good, although he didn't know how serious it was, but he knew that the moody Qu Lantian was probably really angry.

"Oh?" Qu Lantian raised his eyebrows and glanced at her, although his expression paused a little when he touched her gaze, but Yan Xiao felt that Qu Lantian seemed to blame her for being nosy.

"I'm sorry, City Lord Qu, Cheng Daoyou seems to be in a hurry, and he has already left first. If the city lord has something very important, the younger generation will call him back. Although Yan Xiao said this, she was actually not very familiar with Qu Lantian's personality, and she didn't know if she could get Qu Lantian's understanding by saying this.

If she can't, or Qu Lantian really has something very important, then she is bound to send a message to Cheng Yi.

Yan Xiao stood in place, a little nervously waiting for Qu Lantian to fall.

Ning Yuan's hand was hidden in the wide sleeved robe, and he secretly stretched out his right hand that Yan Xiao had fallen beside him, quietly pulled it in his hand, and pinched it lightly to show comfort.

Yan Xiao sensed the concern from Ning Yuan, and his heart was slightly relaxed. No matter what, there is this person who is by her side and faces it with her.

"Oh?" Qu Lantian raised his eyebrows almost invisibly, and snorted lightly in his mouth: "That kid ......"

The expression was neither angry nor happy, so that Yan Xiao didn't understand what he meant for a while.

As if sensing Yan Xiao's nervousness, Qu Lantian turned his gaze to her, shook his head, and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, little girl, it's the kid's fault, I'm not the kind of person who can't figure it out." ”

The meaning of this sentence is naturally that it is not Yan Xiao's fault that Cheng Yi did not come to him as agreed, and he is naturally a Yuan Infant Monk who will not deal with innocent juniors.

But listening to Qu Hao, who was waiting on the side, made him roll his eyes silently in his heart.

When did he Qu Lantian become a person who could carry it clearly? If he is a person who can carry it clearly, then I am afraid that there will be no one in the entire Tianyuan Continent who cannot carry it.

Of course, he only dared to lower his head and complain silently in his heart, not daring to have any expression fluctuations, for fear of being seen by Qu Lantian.

It's just that no matter how well he Qu Hao hid it, he still noticed that Qu Lantian's eyes seemed to be unintentionally fluttering towards the top of his lowered head.

Qu Hao let out a "chuckle" in his heart, and didn't dare to have the slightest other thoughts.

Yan Xiao didn't have Qu Hao's deep understanding of Qu Lantian's bone marrow, she believed in her intuition, Qu Lantian had no ill will towards her, so she still couldn't help but show a relieved smile to Qu Lantian.

"That's it." Qu Lantian waved his hand at this time, and said to Yan Xiao and the others: "It's not a big deal, but I happened to meet you and Cheng Yi at that time, and I think I have something to tell you, but it's never too late to say it." Since kid Cheng Yi didn't come, let's talk about it next time. ”

Qu Lantian seemed to be very sure that he would definitely be able to meet Yan Xiao and Cheng Yi again in the future, and he seemed very confident that they would come to him one day.

Seeing that there was nothing to say, he began to become impatient.

"Okay, okay, you guys can go back, it is said that the war of the five major sects has now entered a critical stage, and it is the time when it is necessary to employ people. I won't keep the two of you anymore, so go back and help. Qu Lantian also seems to have a certain understanding of the battle between the five major sects, and he used this to drive the two away, but he suddenly provoked the two of them to return to their hearts.

"Can the seniors tell us how the battle situation of the five major sects is now?" When Yan Xiao heard this, he suddenly thought that Qu Lantian, the lord of a city, could be regarded as the largest force in the remote north of the Tianyuan Continent, and Qu Lancheng, which had not been involved in the battle of the five major sects, was now a rare and stable city, but Qu Lantian, who was the lord of a city, how could he not understand the current battle situation in full swing?

Qu Lantian didn't seem to want to say anything more to them, but just waved his hand at them, "Remember to come to me in the future." ”

These were the last words he said to them, and then he turned around and went on to tending to his spirit grass.

"Come with me, both of you." Seeing this, Qu Hao understood that the city lord was going to send off guests, so he made a "please" gesture to the two of them again, and then without waiting for the two to react, he walked towards the outside of the Spirit Plantation Garden first.

Seeing this, Yan Xiao knew that Qu Lantian didn't want to talk to them anymore, so he had no choice but to stop entanglement, pull Ning Yuan with one hand, and follow Qu Hao towards the outside.

"If you two want to know the battle situation of the five major sects, I will tell you about it." Out of the back garden of Qu Blue City, Qu Hao spoke out.

He knew that as the two people who were the key cultivators of the Yaoguang Sect, they should be eager to know about the situation of the sect at this time.

Although Qu Lantian didn't pay attention to Yan Xiao's question, his eyes glanced at him lightly. He suddenly realized that the city lord had asked him to tell the two of them on the way out.

He also knew that the city lord was different from Yan Xiao and Cheng Yi, the two juniors, and the others.

For others, he relied entirely on his own likes and dislikes, but for these two juniors, he seemed to have an extra responsibility in addition to love.

Others may not know where the city lord's responsibility comes from, but he has some understanding of the city lord who has been by his side.

In fact, the city lord was also a genius monk back then, and he was very valued and loved by the old city lord.

But Qu Lantian looks like a hanger all day long, and it seems that he has never spent his mind on cultivation.

But only he knew that the city lord was cultivating almost day and night, but every once in a while, the skill he had cultivated with great difficulty would suddenly drop a bit, and in the eyes of outsiders, Qu Lankong had good qualifications, but he had a very slow cultivation speed.

In order to hide the special thing that his skills will always decline by himself, Qu Lantian gradually developed a hangy appearance, in fact, only he knows, this is just to hide people's eyes.

It's just that after so many years, sometimes, even he has the illusion that the city lord is really born to look like this.

But one day, about forty years ago, the lord of the castle was suddenly happy, and that night, he also happened to hear the lord of the castle say in a voice that was almost crying with excitement: "It's finally waiting for you." ”

He had a vague guess at that time.

Later, Qu Lantian's strength really did not decline again.

Qu Lantian, who had steadily improved his cultivation, soon became the city lord of Qulan City, and ten years after becoming the city lord, he was promoted to Yuanying Monk.

Some people say that this is Qu Lantian finally realizing his responsibility as the city lord of Qulan City. But only he knows that this is not the case, Qu Lantian's change is because he finally doesn't need to disguise anymore.

Qu Hao sighed that Qu Lantian had not come easily over the years, and at the same time told Yan Xiao and the others about the current situation of the five major sects.

……

"Senior brother, the front is the camp of the decent sect in Luoshui City that Qu Hao's predecessor said, right?" Everywhere Yan Xiao's eyes can see, everything is barren.

When the two of them passed through the area seven years ago, it was still a bustling city.

Yan Xiao pulled Ning Yuanchao to look ahead, and at the same time used his divine sense to be alert to the movements around him.

According to what Qu Hao said, she and Ning Yuan have now stepped into one of the main battlefields of the five major sect wars - the battlefield of Luoshui City.

Luoshui City is not far from the Yaoguang Sect, and it will take seven days to fly southeast from Luoshui City to reach the Yaoguang Sect.

Therefore, Luoshui City is an extremely important place for Zhengyanmen and Tianxuanzong who attacked from the northwest.

"It should be, according to the map given to us by Qu Hao's predecessors, the decent camp should be not far ahead."

While Ning Yuan answered Yan Xiao's question, his thoughts returned to what Qu Hao had said to them more than half a month ago.

It turned out that Tianxuanzong and Zhengyanmen had waged war against the Yaoguang faction on the grounds that the Yaoguang faction had detained the elders and disciples who had gone to Jingchang Mountain to participate in the Lingyuan Conference.

After the war, although there were many contradictions between Tianxuanzong and Zhengyanmen, they still had a tacit understanding and twisted into a rope, and the troops were divided into three ways, and at the same time attacked the three major sects of Yaoguang Sect, Qianrenmen, and Danxin Valley.

Of course, the main firepower was concentrated on the Yaoguang faction.

With such favoritism, he naturally wanted to warn the other two sects not to easily get involved in the war between them and the Yaoguang Sect. I want to use this to isolate the Yaoguang faction.

Fortunately, the heads and elders of Qianrenmen and Danxin Valley are not such short-sighted people.

They have long been aware of the ambitions of Zhengyanmen and Tianxuanzong, if they are alone at this time, and reach an agreement with Tianxuanzong and Zhengyanmen to collect troops and isolate the Yaoguang faction, then the day when the Yaoguang faction is destroyed, it will be the time when Tianxuan and Zhengyan sword point at Qianren and Danxin.

Therefore, Qianrenmen and Danxin Valley resolutely stood together with the Yaoguang Sect to deal with the joint forces of Tianxuanzong and Zhengyanmen.

The Yaoguang faction even took advantage of this to unite Qianrenmen and Danxin Valley, and announced a series of evil deeds of Tianxuanzong and Zhengyanmen to the world.

At this point, the people of the world will call the alliance of the three factions of Yaoguang faction, Danxin Valley, and Qianrenmen who defend their right to survival "righteous alliance". And the alliance of the two factions of the greedy Tianxuanzong and the Zhengyanmen is collectively called the "Fallen Alliance".

As a result, there is the "decent" camp in what Qu Hao said.

"It's just ahead." Yan Xiao and Ning Yuan both have good eyesight, and from a distance, the two of them seem to be able to see a simple temporary residence in the distance, which must be a decent camp.

The strong sense of belonging to the Yaoguang faction in their hearts rushed to the hearts of the two of them again, and the two of them stepped on the wooden boat under their feet, eager to fly there immediately.

"Wait!" Just as Yan Xiao reminded Ning Yuan with his divine sense, Ning Yuan, who also sensed that something was wrong, also stopped the wooden boat at the same time.

"Someone there?" Ning Yuan asked Yan Xiao with his mouth, pointing in the direction of his left hand side.

Yan Xiao nodded slowly, motioned for Ning Yuan to take out the jade pendant, and then quietly approached the left hand side where there was movement.

As the two of them got closer, they became more and more sure that there was someone in that place.

It's just that the conversation between the two seemed to be unusually cautious, and a strict soundproof barrier was set up, so that Yan Xiao and Ning Yuan couldn't hear what the two were talking about. (To be continued.) )
