Plum Garden Atrium Flower Hall.

Xie Yunfei finished arranging lunch and was gossiping with her parents.

didn't wait for a few words to chat, but saw Grandpa Xie Wen's face sinking like water, and strode from the direction of the backyard. Zhou Qi followed closely behind him with a narrow wooden box in his hand.

Xie Bonian, who was talking softly with his wife, frowned slightly when he saw this. How could my father let Mr. Zhou hold that sword? He turned his head to take a look, only to see that Gu Junmei beside him was also frowning slightly, the husband and wife glanced at each other, and hurriedly stood up and greeted the two who came in a hurry.

"Dad? This is? ”

Xie Wen raised his hand and interrupted his son's questioning. His eyes swept around and he didn't speak.

"Lao Li! You lead people to guard the atrium, and no one is allowed to approach without my orders!" Xie Yunfei saw her grandfather's expression and immediately understood. Quickly walked out of the atrium and commanded loudly.

"Yes! Miss! Lao Li answered, and hurriedly took out the walkie-talkie and began to arrange.

"Yun Fei, this girl is getting more and more capable." Xie Wen saw his granddaughter's actions, his eyes showed appreciation, and he couldn't help but praise loudly.

"Bo Nian, I'm afraid this time it's not easy! The details are still up to Zhou Xiaoyou. ”

"Mr. Zhou? What's going on? Gu Junmei heard her father-in-law say so solemnly, and hurriedly asked.

"Grandpa Xie, uncle and aunt, just call me Zhou Qi directly." Zhou Qi gently put the wooden box in his hand on the round table in the flower hall. Under the attention of the four members of the Xie family, the wooden box was gently opened. Finger the sword in the box with one hand.

"This sword is called Seven Kills! Palm killing. Extraordinary origins. The demon that was attached to my uncle before was hidden in it. Just now I said to Grandpa Xie that the person who took out the sword for auction was likely to be unfavorable to the Xie family! ”

"Seven kills?" Xie Yunfei walked up to Zhou Qi and stood still. Looking down at the bright yellow and dazzling sword in the box. She glanced at him inquiringly.

Zhou Qi nodded slightly, indicating that what he said was true.

"Uncle might as well recall, when he photographed this sword, was there anything strange that was worth noting?" Zhou Qi suddenly turned his head to look at Xie Bonian and asked.

"Well, I have participated in the auction of Taiwan Island Zhiyuan Travel many times, and the auction site is a normal process, there is nothing special!" Xie Bonian pondered for a moment and shook his head affirmatively.

"And before that? Did my uncle take a fancy to this sword before the auction began, and planned to auction it? ”

"No, this sword is a consignment, and it was temporarily added." When Xie Bonian said this, he suddenly took a look at his father and wife.

"Well, so my uncle actually took a fancy to other items before he went to the auction?"

"Yes, I originally took a fancy to a painting of Liuru authentic and a porcelain vase from the official cave."

When Zhou Qi heard him say this, his eyes instantly became bright, like a cold star. From Xie Bonian's words, he had grasped the crux of the matter.

"Were those items auctioned off at a high price by someone else? And this sword was temporarily auctioned after the uncle's favorite item was auctioned off! ”

"Hey, Zhou Qi, how do you know? The situation on the ground is indeed the same as you said. Xie Bonian was slightly surprised, and then his face changed, and he faintly realized the meaning of Zhou Qi's words.

Speaking of which, things are already very clear, Zhou Qi's speculation is nine times out of ten correct, and someone has indeed set a game against Xie Jiabu. Zhou Qi's analysis not only solved the mystery, but also followed this clue, it is very likely to find the mastermind behind the scenes!

"In a previous conversation with Grandpa Xie, I learned that my uncle has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. And for those who practice martial arts, my uncle must know what kind of attraction a sharp-blown weapon with a broken blade will have? ”

"The people behind the scenes arrange for someone to bid off the sale you like. And at the critical time, let the ancient sword appear on the stage to attract the attention of his uncle. This hand was first suppressed and then raised, which raised the uncle's desire to buy to the extreme. ”

"I think that after being sniped in successive auctions, my uncle is afraid that when he sees the seven killings, he will have the idea that he will definitely win, right?"

"That's right! Zhou Qi, you're right, I really thought so at the time! Xie Bonian was surprised, and Zhou Qi was as if he was present at the time, peeking into his inner activities. What he said was exactly what he said!

After listening to Zhou Qi's analysis, Gu Junmei and Xie Bonian, including Old Man Xie, looked at Zhou Qi with different eyes than before. This young man's mind is so delicate that he has only seen it in his life. In addition, he has a strange art, and he is the kind of person who can only be a friend, not an enemy!

"This time it's really thanks to Zhou Xiaoyou. Oh, you see this patronizing and talking, Yunfei girl, tell them to serve the food, let's talk while eating. ”

"Okay grandpa!" Xie Yunfei glanced at Zhou Qi, her eyes full of gratitude, pride and joy. Hurriedly walked out of the flower hall. Not long after she went out, a stream of servants from the house came to serve the food.

Zhou Qi didn't eat breakfast, he was feeling hungry in his belly, and he happily sat down. did not refuse the dishes that Xie Yunfei frequently brought in, and ate them sweetly.

Not long after the meal, his mobile phone suddenly rang. Zhou Qi put down his chopsticks, showed an apologetic look, and strode out of the flower hall.

After a while, Zhou Qi returned from outside and sat down again. After eating a few bites of food, the bowl and chopsticks in his hand turned his head and whispered to Xie Yunfei.

"Yun Fei, Uncle just called, urging me to go to the capital, I'm afraid I will have to leave tonight at the latest."

"Hmmm! I thought you were going to leave after eating. Xie Yunfei glanced at him without a trace, and the charm was self-evident.

"What, Zhou Qi is going to the capital?" Old Man Xie asked when he heard this.

"Yes, Grandpa Xie, I'm going to go over early tomorrow morning."

"Oh, I originally wanted to keep you in the plum garden for a few days. It seems that we can only wait for the next opportunity. Old Man Xie said with a slight regret. No matter what the situation is on the granddaughter's side, a "strange person" like Zhou Qi will make friends with all his might, which will only benefit him personally or the entire Xie family. What's more, Zhou Qi's style of doing things has won his recognition and liking. I had the faint idea of seeing him as my grandson-in-law.

"Zhou Qi, what do you think of this Seven Killing Sword?" After Old Man Xie groaned slightly, he suddenly asked out loud.

"The Seven Killing Sword Demon has been eliminated, if it is used as a blade, it can be regarded as a divine weapon."

"Oh, if only it were so! Since you can recognize this sword, you are also a person who learns it, and it is better for a sword to meet the Lord than to be in the corner of the wall and to cover yourself with dust. I will give you this sword for Bonian, Zhou Qi, you don't have to refuse. ”

"This?" Zhou Qi glanced at Xie Yunfei, although he liked this Seven Kills Sword, it was owned by the Xie family after all. I have the idea of being lucky and losing my life. There is no intention of forcing it. Now when I hear the old man say this, I can't help but be overjoyed.

Seeing Xie Yunfei smiling at him and nodding, he hurriedly stood up and bowed to the old man.

"The elder doesn't dare to resign, so the kid is ashamed."

"Haha, what's the shame. If you didn't come to help this time, I'm afraid that the Xie family's century-old family business would have been ruined. How can a sword resist. It's the first time you come to the plum garden, and after eating, let Yunfei take you around. I and Bonian and they have all together this matter. I thank you for not asking about the world for many years. I want to see who dares to pay attention to the Xie family. ”

"Well, this is not a trivial matter, and I also want to know who dares to touch my Xie Bonian's mind." Xie Bonian, who had rarely made a sound before, listened to his father's words, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and the momentum on his body changed, revealing a faint gesture of contempt.

"Grandpa Xie, uncle, I still have a few talismans here, you can fold the talismans and take them with you later. You can keep safe when it matters. Saying that, Zhou Qi took out four thick earth talismans and four Gengjin talismans from his pocket. Both hands were handed to Old Man Xie.

Both of these are talismans that do not require energy to be excitated and can be placed directly on the body to work. The thick earth talisman is the main defense, and the Gengjin talisman can spontaneously counterattack and injure the enemy. If he can keep Xie Yunfei's family safe, for him, it is within his bounds to be affectionate and reasonable.

After the meal, Zhou Qi was invited by Mr. Xie to walk in the plum garden accompanied by Xie Yunfei. Xie Yunfei was surprisingly calm, only holding his arm and silently hugging him. Zhou Qi couldn't understand her mood. But how can he comfort him?

The plum garden is early in spring, although the weather is still cold, but it is full of vitality everywhere. The pace of spring is approaching, just as the gathering is too short to stop.

It was almost evening, Zhou Qi politely declined to stay, left the plum garden with Xie Yunfei, and returned to the villa along the way.

"I've already arranged the plane, and you'll be able to leave later." Xie Yunfei clasped her hands in front of her chest, tilted her head and stared at Zhou Qi beside her, with a smile on her face that was a little reluctant. There was silence all the way, knowing that Zhou Qifang only heard her speak at this moment.

"Thank you, Yunfei. Or are you thoughtful. Zhou Qi smiled slightly, and at the same time, he raised his arm and raised a piece of paper that had been written before, which was sandwiched between his fingers.

"On the Hidden Dragon Society's side, you need to guard against the possible attack of KASA at any time, and you will definitely need to leave a large number of men behind. It's a call from a guy named Fels. If necessary, you can contact him and ask him to send someone to protect Grandpa Xie and his uncle and aunt. This guy is my friend and a contractor, and in reality, he works full-time security, so he should be able to help you. ”

"Yo, you're more thoughtful than I thought. How long will it take to go to Yanjing this time? Xie Yunfei pursed her lips cutely, seeing that Zhou Qi was so thoughtful about her and her family, most of the haze in her heart suddenly dissipated.

"I don't know, why don't you stay for a few more days before leaving."

"Hmph, be careful not to get wild. Stay with me for a while, Lao Li will send you over when the time comes. As the words fell, Xie Yunfei reached out and hugged Zhou Qi's neck and threw herself into his arms. In the afterglow of the setting sun, quietly enjoy the warmth of this moment before parting.

Zhou Qiwei hesitated. Reached out and hugged Xie Yunfei's soft back, and hugged her soft body tightly in his arms. At the same time, in his mind he quietly asked himself.

I don't know how many times I can enjoy such a dusk?
