Chapter 119: The Dark Guard
After hearing this, Jia Luo was a little strange, and couldn't help asking, "Qi Yong, which clan is your grandfather the patriarch of?" Faintly, she seemed to have guessed that Emperor Xuanlan was jealous, and the soldiers of the great prince of the Northern Regions couldn't beat him...... So Jia Luo vaguely knew which clan was so powerful, forcing the old General Qi back then not to dare to resist.
"Yes...... Clan!" Qi Yong sighed.
Sure enough, as Jia Luo expected, Qi Yong's grandfather was actually a member of the clan. The clan is known as a battle clan and has been famous among Shikoku for hundreds of years. Entrenched in the Hanhai grassland, the patriarch married his daughter to a general of the Xuanlan Kingdom twenty-three years ago, and the clan returned to the Xuanlan State after that.
The clan hasn't heard of anything happening in these years, but the combat effectiveness of the entire clan cannot be underestimated, no wonder Qi Yong and his clansmen were able to capture Sifang City.
"Are you still the patriarch of the clan?"
Qi Yong nodded, "My grandfather only had one daughter left for my mother, and then my mother also left, and my grandfather passed on the position of patriarch to me, so I was not on the side of the Hanhai Grassland when I was in Sifang City." ”
"Then aren't you tired of running on both sides like this?" Callo asked.
Qi Yong smiled bitterly: "Fortunately, there are second and third brothers in Sifang City who are watching now, and I will let them deal with the small matters themselves." If there is anything that can't be handled, let me know in the past. Today's Sifang City is not like what I just took over, and now that Sifang City is almost stable, I don't want to stay there every day to deal with things. ”
After listening to this, Jia Luo thought to himself that Qi Yong was amazing. Both sides can be handled by him very well, and people outside have always thought that he is only in charge of a square city, but they didn't expect him to be the patriarch of the clan. Although the clan is now under Xuanlan, their affairs are all in charge of themselves, Xuanlan is only the nominal master, and Xuanlan can't interfere in the affairs of the clan, so Qi Yong can take the clansmen to do whatever they want.
"Next, I'm going to find the Ice and Fire Gourd, and I've already got the Nine Xiaoqin."
"Yes, I've heard of that ice and fire gourd, I've heard the old people of our clan say before, that gourd seems to be near the mountain. Garlo might as well let me go with you, the city of the Four Directions has been fine lately anyway. The eldest prince of the Northern Regions is seriously injured, and he has no time to trouble Sifang City if he wants to compete with the second prince for the crown prince, and Ten Thousand Beasts City is preparing to marry the eldest prince, and they are not available to find trouble in Sifang City now, and I can also find time to accompany you. ”
Garrot shook his head, "No, you're too busy. And the specific location of the ice and fire gourd is not clear, in case you can't find it for a while, it will be delayed for many days, how can you have time to accompany me all the time, I still notify Xiaoxiao and let them accompany me on a trip. ”
Qi Yong retorted: "We still have to ask the elders, where is that mountain, and we may know where the Ice and Fire Gourd is, so I have to take you back to the clan, I can't do it if I don't accompany you." Our people have a rule that foreigners are not allowed to enter. You said that without me with you, you would have to spend time looking for it. ”
Jia Luo was said by him, and felt that Qi Yong said the same, without his help, she didn't know where the Ice and Fire Gourd was.
"But you need you on both sides, and I'm afraid you'll have too much work if I help you again."
He has been helping her since they met, and he has been by his side every time something happens, and he has been delayed a lot of time these days.
Qi Yong smiled: "In my eyes, your affairs are the most important, and other things can be placed in the back." After saying that, he looked at her.
Calo was stared at by him like this, and he looked down uncomfortably and didn't dare to look at her. His meaning couldn't be clearer, her affairs are the most important, which shows that he attaches great importance to her in his heart, so he will even deal with her affairs for the first time.
Qi Yong smiled and said: "It's okay, I've already arranged everything, this time it's different, I have to take you there, if I have something to do, I will leave early and let Xiaoxiao and them accompany you."
Let's go back to the border next for a trip, you are sick, Xiaoxiao doesn't look very good, so let him rest there for a few days, let's meet them and set off at that time, you can recuperate well in these two days, and we will not be short of these two days. ”
Callo agreed with him, if it was really the whereabouts of the Ice and Fire Gourd, then she would not be in a hurry for these two days, it was only winter now, and there were still a few months before the seal was lifted next year.
"When you met Xiaoxiao, how were the others?"
Qi Yong thought about it and said, "The complexion is a little worse, but the others are fine." He used to look healthy, why was he so sick this time? ”
Xiaoxiao's martial arts are similar to him, and his light skills are even better than him, and he hasn't seen him sick on weekdays, especially this time when I heard that he was quite sick.
After listening to it, Callo explained: "He had been poisoned before, and he didn't detoxify it in time, and then although the poison was detoxified, there was still some residual poison accumulated in the body, and he didn't find it at the time, but this time he got typhoid fever and the residual poison also attacked, so it was more severe than the usual typhoid fever, and it was slower."
In the past few years, he has not paid attention to his physical ...... It may also be that he has suffered so much in the past, and he once gave up on himself for a period of time without scruples about his body, and it is good to stay at the border for more than two days, and only after recuperating can he continue to hurry. The three of them have suffered a lot with me these days, and sometimes I always feel sorry for them, and it is thankless to follow such a master. ”
Qi Yong comforted her when he saw her guilty appearance: "You can't be blamed for this, you are not doing things for yourself, besides, you are handling the things that your master explained on his deathbed." In addition, I think that the girl Amana likes to go down the mountain very much, and Tsing Yi said that they used to suffocate to death on the mountain, but fortunately, they came down with you this time.
In your eyes, it's a drag on them, but maybe not, always stay in one place, Jingyue can stay, but Ah Man and Xiaoxiao definitely can't stay. I see the two of them wish you came down the mountain sooner, so they wouldn't be so bored and could look around. It's not like you're not bored in one place. ”
After listening to his words, Callo felt that there was some truth to it.
The two of them talked for a while, and when her eyelids became heavier and heavier, she fell asleep, maybe because Qi Yong was around, so Jia Luo slept very soundly this night, and people felt when they woke up
When I woke up again, it was already dark, and I only heard the sound of the north wind blowing outside, it sounded like Qi Yong was not seen in the tent, and Jia Luo smelled a smell of blood outside, and he was secretly shocked that he didn't know what was going on outside, so he immediately sat up and ran out of the tent quickly.
Sure enough, not far away, I saw a few figures fighting, and the smell of blood came from there. And one of them, Jia Luo recognized it as Qi Yong, and his heart pwitched, hoping that Qi Yong was not injured, and there were several secret guards around him who were besieging him.
