"If it's not your master, it's your father."

Although the black cat's words were very reasonable, they made Xie Qingning feel very uncomfortable. She didn't notice the change in Lan Yongzhi's expression on the other side, she just felt that the word "father" was particularly unfamiliar and harsh.

With her eyebrows frowning slightly, she replied with her divine sense, "Impossible." ”

The black cat's pretended to be asleep body shook slightly, interrupted the communication of consciousness and continued to sleep.

Xie Qingning's thoughts were difficult to calm because of the black cat's words, if the gray-robed man was really sent by her father, should she forgive him, be grateful to him, and forget the harm he caused to her mother?

In fact, she never thought of finding her biological father and sharing the joy of family with him, whether it was in her past life or in this life, she struggled to trace the clues of her biological father, but she just wanted to understand what her mother had experienced back then? Why was she poisoned? Why do you get pregnant before you get married? Why did you flee back to Lanling City and leave alone? And what role did her biological father play in this matter?

After taking a deep breath of the cold air in the night, Xie Qingning temporarily put aside these troublesome thoughts and reintegrated his attention into the joyful atmosphere of the scene.

Xie Huazhao and Lan Yongzhi each roasted two pheasants in their hands, and the zither was roasting a hare, Qingwa would not be able to wait and watch curiously, Yanyu couldn't participate because she had to take care of the black cat, so she could only look left and right, and her appearance was also cute and cute.

"Seventh sister, is your injury remedied?" Xie Huazhao saw that she was sitting straight and her eyes were not open, thinking that she was healing in secret, so he didn't dare to disturb.

However, Lan Yongzhi hurriedly lowered her eyes when she regained her senses, so as not to be mistaken for frivolity, and it looked like she was concentrating on barbecue.

"Almost," Xie Qingning didn't want to talk too much about his injury, so he changed the topic and talked about the Immortal Competition, but heard Xie Huazhao say, "The clan has already begun to prepare for the competition, I heard that ten years later, a preliminary selection competition will be held for the entire Xie clan, and all Xie disciples can participate at that time, as long as they can enter the top 100, they can receive the key training of the clan, and they can set the quota by competing again in the early stage of the competition." ”

"Is it really just a fair selection?" Xie Qingning was skeptical.

"Of course, our Xie family's descendants are directly qualified, but there are only two in each room," Xie Huazhao shrugged his shoulders and said, "Naturally, I want to go, I heard that the Changfang sent Brother Lobby and Hua Yan." ”

"Oh? Is there no leaf weight? Xie Qingning raised his eyebrows slightly.

"He? I guess I'm going to participate in the tryouts, but his strength is extraordinary, so he should be able to enter. ”

Xie Qingning was actually very happy to see Ye Chong and Xie Shi face and heart, so he didn't continue the topic, but asked, "Third brother, have you ever heard that we have chosen which two people in the fourth room?" ”

"Naturally, there is Hua Ling, but I heard from my father that the fourth uncle is still hesitating, because the situation is a little different this year, after all, you have returned to the Xie clan genealogy, and you are also a person from the fourth room."

Xie Qingning sneered and didn't speak, she had never been conscious of being a fourth room, she just asked out of curiosity.

"By the way, I think of another thing when you mention this," Xie Huazhao said with a smile, "A few days ago, several friends in the clan school asked me to participate in the points task together after the New Year, all of which should be to travel and increase knowledge, I plan to take you with me, how about it?" ”

"I'm not going, it's boring." Xie Qingning shook his head and refused, which disappointed Xie Huazhao, but Lan Yongzhi next to him asked, "Where are you going to carry out the mission?" ”

"Chang Gung Mountain, I heard that a fifth-order demon beast came out there, which injured many people, we have planned to go over for a long time, but it has only been delayed because of the New Year's Festival."

"Oh, that's a coincidence, there are also a few disciples of our Lan family who have made an appointment to travel together at the beginning of the year, and by the way, let's see what that beast is capable of."

Xie Huazhao shouted when he heard this, "You won't rob me again, will you?" ”

"There's no need to rob it," Lan Yongzhi glanced at Xie Qingning deeply and said, "We can actually cooperate." ”

"What kind of cooperation is it?" Xie Huazhao expressed his doubts, after all, the previous incident of Wufu Mountain made the Xie family not get any benefits and caused a commotion, and Xie Tan almost died because of it, how could he be willing to cooperate with the disciples of the other two families.

"If you don't worry, why don't we go separately, whoever finds the beast first and slays it will be whoever, but if either side can't do it, it will be left to the other team, how about it?"

Xie Huazhao snorted and didn't speak, but Lan Yongzhi smiled a little meaningfully.

It's a pity that Xie Qingning is not interested in these things at all, Mo said that she still has a lot of things to do now, and she doesn't have the time and energy to do any integral tasks, and what's more, she has to be asked to go with a group of teenage children, she has goosebumps when she thinks about it.

Seeing that she was not interested, Lan Yongzhi couldn't help but be a little disappointed, but there was no other way to attract her attention anymore, so she could only comfort herself with the anxiety in her heart, "The future is long".

The night passed quickly, and when the sky was bright, everyone climbed out of the tent, and they had nothing to do to travel, and they walked all the way comfortably and chicly, and the biggest harvest for Xie Qingning was to pick a lot of herbs, although they were not spiritual herbs, but they were enough for her, a junior alchemist.

Two days later, everyone just approached the gate of Lanling City, and saw the Lan family's carriage waiting outside the city from a distance, Lan Yongzhi's personal guard Qi was sitting on the wheel with a sword, and a pair of tiger eyes bloomed so that no one approached within ten steps, but it also became a scenery of its own, which attracted much attention.

Xie Qingning had fought with this Wei Qi in his previous life, and knew that the other party's cultivation was not high but his swordsmanship was quite high, and his swordsmanship was precise and ruthless, which was more suitable for killing people than protecting people, and he didn't know where Lan Kuangtian, the head of the Lan family, found this person to protect Lan Yongzhi closely, and the two were also teachers, friends and master servants, which was also very rare.

"Your old man is too nervous, right, but he just sneaked out to play, do you need to let Wei Qi block here to pick you up and take you home?" When Xie Huazhao came back, he had been sitting at the front of the car in order to watch the scenery, and when he saw Wei Qi's rejecting demeanor, he couldn't help but lift the curtain and express some dissatisfaction to Lan Yongzhi.

Lan Yongzhi didn't say anything, his grandfather had always been nervous about him, he had long been used to it.

"Since Lao Wei is here, I will say goodbye first," he jumped out of the carriage and said a word to Xie Huazhao, then walked to Xie Qingning's carriage again, and saluted seriously before saying, "Miss Seven, Yongzhi has taken a step first, and I will see you again in the future." The words fell, but he didn't wait for the other party's response for a long time, and he didn't know whether he was asleep or settled, and he couldn't help but feel some sad emotions in his heart.

But just as he turned around and wanted to leave, he heard Xie Qingning's crisp and capable voice as usual from behind him, "Fourth Brother Lan is easy to go." ”
