Chapter 566, a painstaking heart
Of course, Qi Hufei couldn't say anything to Ao Ba on the phone, just chatted casually and said some things about their own lives, all of which were innocuous words.
It could be heard from the voice of the phone that Ao Ba was very excited, but this kid was obviously a little more mature than in the past, and knew how to pay attention to what he said. Calls made by border posts like this are estimated to be monitored, even if the caller is the sixth prince.
At the end of the phone call, Qi Feifei expressed his gratitude to the Dragon King and Prince Moang for the gift he sent last time, and hinted that he might take up his post in Lingxi Town, and he would survey the terrain and environment in Lingxi Town in the next two days. He believed that Xiao Liuzi should be able to understand the meaning of his words.
After hanging up the phone, Qi Hufei chatted with Bo Da Hammer for a while, and brought some ingredients and medicinal materials from his Honghuang Hot Spring Hut, which was regarded as a little condolence to Bo Da Hammer and his patrol members, and it could also be regarded as enhancing the relationship and facilitating future cooperation. After all, if he becomes the stationmaster of the Coast Guard Station in the future, he will inevitably deal with the people of the Dragon Clan, and the most direct target may be this Captain Bo.
Although these things are not very precious, they are all products of land, especially those that are eaten, and the shrimp and fish on the bottom of the sea will never be seen. With great gratitude, Bo Da Hammer personally drove the patrol boat and sent Qi Hu Fei across the Two Realms Ditch and returned to Qianlong Bay.
Qi Hufei did not return to Pansiling, and stayed in Lingxi Town for two days. In the past two days, he has flown almost the entire sea area of Qianlong Bay, remembering the coastline and the terrain of those islands on the sea that stretches for thousands of miles.
In addition, he meditated and rested on the ruins south of Lingxi Town. He had killed the dace spirit here, and now the dace element's scale armor had been refined into a magic weapon and wrapped around his arm.
It's also a bit funny to think of the process of killing the carp essence in the first place, and it was with the help of the broken stone tablet that only Ao Ba could carry that guy to death.
Compared to that time, Qi Hufei has now improved a lot in terms of mana and combat experience, and there are many things to be discussed when he recalls the details of that battle. However, the strength of the dace essence is very strong, it should be much stronger than Fu Hongsheng, and its combat power may even exceed that of the frog that has broken through the sixth grade. If he is tough, even if he adds this magic weapon now, he will not be able to defeat the dace essence.
Fortunately, fighting a war is never a brute force, of course, it is necessary to take advantage of the right time and place, and as for people, in his opinion, it is the most difficult to grasp. Last time in Qi Jiaoze Qi Hufei suffered a loss, it was originally calculated well, but the reinforcements were forcibly blocked, and the anti-ambush plan almost became a sheep into the tiger's mouth, if it weren't for the brothers on the mountain and the widow Wang, most of his life would have been explained there.
I don't know if the master has calculated this battle. Maybe the alienated and deformed prosperity is the last guarantee left by the master.
And, of course, the widow of the king.
Now it seems that she can't be called a widow. Because his man is himself, although it is a previous life, he can't call his wife a widow, how unlucky!
Thinking of Widow Wang, Qi Hufei felt strange in his heart and didn't know how to face it.
Qi Feifei forcibly withdrew his thoughts to the ruins in front of him.
What is so special about this place? Why is the stele here? Why is there only half a block, and where did the other half go? Did the people of the Chenghuang Division here know the wonderful use of this stone tablet? If they knew, why did they leave this half of the stele here unattended? If they don't know, why was the City God Division built here?
On the evening of the third day, Ao Ba came.
Qi Hufei was meditating, and Ao Ba suddenly jumped out and shouted excitedly: "Brother Qi, haha!" I knew you were here! ”
Qi Hufei said: "If you don't come again, I will go back as soon as dawn." ”
Ao Ba said: "Then I'll go to Pansiling to find you." ”
Qi Hufei shook his head and said, "Not now." The leadership team of Honggu County Chenghuangsi has changed, and the current leaders and I don't deal with it. After all, your identity is special, and if they know it, I'm afraid something will happen. ”
Ao Ba keenly caught the question in Qi Hufei's words and asked, "Brother Qi, are you unhappy over there?" Didn't those stinky leaders show you their faces? Just don't do it, how good it would be to go back to Pansiling to be the head! ”
Qi Hufei said with a smile: "Don't you have to be angry with others when you go back to Pansiling?" There are so many people on the mountain, they always have to eat. ”
Ao Ba naturally understood what Qi Hufei meant. If it's just Qi Hufei alone, or one or two goblins on the mountain, then it's not bad to be a Saiwai Immortal Weng and Taoyuan Hermit in Pansiling. But the current Pansiling is not one or two goblins, and it is not an ordinary goblin. There are so many desolate alien species, just take out any one, and you can shock the outside world. There was no one to cover it, and even the mountain could not get out. Even if you stay on Pansi Ridge secretly, how long can you stay? What's more, as they grow, they don't know how many resources they will consume.
Ao Ba himself is a dragon species, and he is also a Xuanlong overlord, coupled with the recent fusion of the White Jade Dragon Pill, he knows that this kind of evolution is extremely resource-intensive, and it is by no means something that a small Pansiling can afford.
"Big brother, you said on the phone that you were going to come to Lingxi Town to take office, is this true?" Ao Ba asked.
Qi Hufei nodded and said, "Of course it's true." However, the order has not come down yet, maybe it has arrived at the Honggu County Chenghuang Division, but I haven't been waiting for you here for the past two days? ”
Ao Ba said, "That's great. We'll be able to see each other more often in the future. And here, you are not controlled by people, and it is convenient for you to do everything. ”
"That's why I'm looking for you." Qi Hufei said, "Although the Qianlong Bay Patrol Station is relatively independent, there are not many things, and the most important thing is probably to deal with your Xihai Dragon Palace." ”
"Big brother, what do you need me to do?"
"Do you Dragon Palace have any plans to send dragon troops or special official agencies to Qianlong Bay?"
"I heard my eldest brother talk about it last time, and it seems to have this idea. But it seems that there is some scruple about the attitude above. ”
"That's right." Qi Hufei said, "Heavenly Court has to consider the attitude and feelings of your Dragon Palace when considering the candidate for the head of the Qianlong Bay Patrol Station, so I can have this opportunity to be the stationmaster. Because in their eyes, I am the best choice to have a good relationship with you. And if you want to send an agency in Qianlong Bay, you need to get the consent of Heavenly Court, and you have to consider the attitude of Heavenly Court and the Immortal Realm of Xiniu Hezhou. There is a high probability that Heavenly Court will come to ask for my opinion, and I have something to do here. ”
"Big brother, what do you mean......" Ao Ba seemed to understand something, "Do you want to meet with my eldest brother, and you two will unify your positions and opinions?"
"You're a good kid, your brain is a little quick!" Qi Hufei couldn't help but be a little impressed by Ao Ba. This kid was still a tendon before, and he didn't know anything about officialdom, but now that Qi Hufei just said this, he immediately thought of the key.
Ao Ba touched his head and smiled: "This is not something I learned from you, big brother." ”
Qi Hufei laughed and said, "But you still have to concentrate on cultivation and enhance your mana realm." Especially if you are a dragon species, you still have to rely on your strong strength to speak in the end. ”
Ao Ba nodded and said, "I understand." ”
Qi Hufei said: "Actually, I came to you not only to meet your eldest brother, but mainly to you." ”
"Me?" Ao Ba was curious, "What can I do for my eldest brother?" ”
Qi Hufei asked, "After you go back, has your father changed his attitude towards you?" Did your eldest brother tell you how to arrange for you? ”
Ao Ba said: "My father's attitude towards me has improved. He didn't like me very much before, mainly because I wasn't a purebred dragon and had an extra turtle shell on my body. My dad likes purebreds, especially the white jade dragon species like my third brother, so he often says that the hope of our West Sea Dragon Clan lies in my third brother. ”
Speaking of this, he thought of the white dragon buried at the bottom of the sea again, and his heart suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and his expression darkened.
"As for my arrangement, my eldest brother mentioned it to my father, and he wanted to transfer me to Bingao Island, but my father disagreed, saying that it was too dangerous there, and I had to deal with the black dragon in the North Sea, and my Taoism was too low and inappropriate."
"That is, it hasn't been decided yet?"
If Ao Ba is transferred to Bingao Island, Qi Hufei will naturally be happy to see it. Because he wants to mine the 10,000-year-old Xuan Ice and develop the Blue Daisi Ice, he must have a good relationship with the person in charge of Bingao Island, and Ao Moang, as the eldest prince of the Dragon Palace of the West Sea, cannot stay in such a remote place as Bingao Island all year round.
But for him at the moment, the best thing is to let Ao Ba come to Qianlong Bay. The matter of Bingao Island can be discussed with Ao Moang, and it is beneficial to everyone, and I believe that Prince Moang will not disagree.
"Yes. Anyway, I'm idle right now, otherwise I wouldn't have sneaked to Lingxi Town to meet you. ”
"That's good." Qi Hufei said, "If you were asked to guard Qianlong Bay, would you be willing?" ”
Ao Ba was slightly stunned and said, "Of course I do!" However, isn't the matter of Qianlong Bay still undecided? And this place is close to your land, and it is inevitable that the people who guard it will have to deal with you diplomatically. Although I have opened up a little bit of knowledge, I can't really be an official. ”
"Isn't there still me!" Qi Hufei smiled, "I'm a stationmaster in Lingxi Town, what are you afraid of?" ”
"That's right!" Ao Ba high-fived vigorously, "How did I forget this!" With Brother Qi here, I just need to take care of the affairs in the sea, and you will definitely be able to help me with other things. ”
Qi Hufei said: "Of course, it is impossible to say that you can do it all, but at least it can help you get it, and it won't get you into trouble." And with you in Qianlong Bay, I don't have to worry about the communication between me and your Dragon Palace. It's the best of both worlds. And I'm going to work with your big brother to develop some projects, and with you in the middle, it's easy for us to communicate. Another point, don't forget that there is a white dragon at the bottom of Qianlong Bay, and I can't let anyone else know about this except you. If you send another person to guard Qianlong Bay in the future, it is inevitable that the secrets under the sea will not be discovered by him. Eventually, we can't control what happens. ”
"Brother Qi, did you say that the white dragon under the sea is my third brother?" Ao Ba asked, "If he is true, then who is the one who is coiled on the Lingshan Hua pillar now?" ”
Qi Hufei shook his head and said, "I'm afraid this matter is very complicated, and it will be difficult for us to figure it out for a while. That's why I want you to come to Qianlong Bay. Even if your eldest brother comes, I don't feel at ease. ”
"There's one thing, I just heard about it......" Ao Ba groaned slightly, as if he was thinking about whether to say it or not, but he only hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "When we were trapped in Jiaoze, my eldest brother's fleet was in the West Sea. He sent the Giant Blue Whale Legion over first through spatial teleportation. It stands to reason that with the Giant Blue Whale Legion in front of him, it should be easy for him to come to the rescue and defeat the Bat Demon and the Jiao Demon, and it will not lead to the final annihilation of the Giant Blue Whale Legion. But...... He was finally stopped. ”
"Oh?" Qi Jufei didn't know this, so he asked, "Who is the person who stopped him?" ”
"It's my third brother." Ao Ba was a little awkward when he said the words of the third brother, and he couldn't even pronounce the words clearly, "It's the Bodhisattva of Lingshan." ”
Qi Jufei frowned: "Is the news reliable?" ”
"Reliable." Ao Ba said, "The people around my eldest brother told me. They were all present at the time and saw it with their own eyes. ”
"Have you asked your eldest brother about this?" Qi Hufei asked worriedly.
"Nope." Ao Ba shook his head and said, "I don't know whether to ask him or not, so I've always wanted to ask your opinion, but I don't know if I should tell you about it." ”
Qi Hufei breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You are right to do this. Don't mention this to your eldest brother, don't talk to anyone about it from now on, and don't mention it again. If someone comes to you and chews on the root of their tongue, you don't even listen to it, just don't have it, understand? ”
Ao Ba seemed to understand whether he understood or not, but he nodded anyway.
Qi Hufei felt that Xiao Liuzi had really matured.
According to this little dragon's previous character, when he heard this kind of thing, he would definitely ask his eldest brother. But in this way, there will inevitably be a rift in the relationship between the two brothers.
Although it was the Bodhisattva of Lingshan who prevented his eldest brother from coming to the rescue, no matter what the Bodhisattva said, it was his eldest brother himself who finally made the decision to give up the rescue. If Prince Moang really decided to come, how could that Bodhisattva stop him?
At that time, Ao Moang should have known that if he didn't make a move, his own brother would be more and less auspicious in Qijiaoze, but finally chose to give up, then there must be something more important in his heart than his brother's life.
Now that Ao Ba is alive, Ao Moang will inevitably feel guilty in his heart, and he will inevitably take care of his brother twice as much in the future. But if Ao Ba asks and pierces the layer of window paper that he will not save if he dies, the rift between the brothers will never be repaired. Even if the relationship between the two is still close on the surface, deep down there will inevitably increase unnecessary suspicion.
Fortunately, Ao Ba didn't say anything in front of Ao Moang, and saw Qi Hufei in time.
Of course, Qi Hufei couldn't pierce this layer of window paper in front of Ao Ba, so he only told him what to do. He believed that Ao Ba would definitely understand his hard work in the future.
"Your eldest brother is your eldest brother after all, and he will always be your most trustworthy person in the four seas. So you forget about it. As for the Eight Heavenly Dragons Guangli Bodhisattva...... Qi Jufei's face was covered with frost, and at the same time he thought of Nezha who stopped Xin Huan's shot on the other side of Qi Jiaoze. "I dare to assert that he is not your third brother. But we can't do anything about him now, so let's leave this matter at that, and don't think about it too much. After you go back, talk to your eldest brother and ask him to arrange for you to come to Qianlong Bay. You tell him that I am going to be the head of the Qianlong Bay Coast Guard, and I will report back to the higher authorities if you have any requests at that time. In the future, we can carry out more in-depth cooperation, and your eldest brother should understand what I mean in this regard. ”
"Got it, Brother Qi." Ao Ba was very concerned about the matter of the true and false third prince, but he also knew that what Qi Hufei said was right, and now he was not capable of dealing with this matter. And he also knows that once the truth of this matter is revealed, it is likely to be widely implicated, and it will be completely uncontrollable how it will develop at that time. Moreover, the white dragon at the bottom of the sea also repeatedly explained before he died, asking him to bury this matter in his heart, and no one should say anything until he digested the white jade dragon pill and the divine dragon overlord.
There are only two people he can trust now, one is his eldest brother Ao Moang, and the other is Qi Hufei. Therefore, he is very willing to come to Qianlong Bay, so that he can discuss anything with Qi Feifei at any time. Moreover, he can also go to Pansiling when he has time. Although they have only been together for a few days, he really misses those little friends, especially the.
The two chatted for a while, and Qi Hufei took out the Xiaoluo and handed it to Ao Ba.
"In the future, you and I will contact us, and we will rely on this." Qi Hufei said with a smile.
Ao Ba turned the small snail and said: "In fact, we can lay a fiber optic cable on the bottom of the sea, from Linlu City to Qianlong Bay, it is only three or four thousand miles, and it is not far away, it is nothing more than no one to do it." I heard that the East China Sea and Dongsheng Shenzhou have already achieved sea and land communication, and we can also do it here in the West Sea. ”
Qi Feifei's eyes lit up, and he immediately smelled unlimited business opportunities from them.
Hehe, if you say that, I'm not sleepy!
"Little Liuzi, you are really a genius!"
