Originally, Feng Xi was angry and didn't plan to raise his eyes, but under Xiao Jiu's repeated begging, he still glanced at the dead branch in his hand.

It didn't matter if I looked at it, I was so stunned on the spot.

"This ......"

I saw that the originally yellow branches in Xiao Jiu's hands were miraculously sprouted quickly after being nourished by the water in his hands, not only that, but the surroundings seemed to be dyed with a layer of mist, hazy and graceful.

"How is Senior Sister?"

"How did you do that?"

Xiao Jiu just smiled, but didn't answer.

This is the unique secret technique of Xiling Mountain that he has learned-the water summoning technique, and what he summoned is not ordinary water, but spring water full of soil power, this water can make the dead branches bud for a while, and if it is left for a longer time, it will bloom!

Seeing Feng Xi's surprised look, Xiao Jiu couldn't help but feel proud in his heart.

Soon, the branches really began to bud, and gradually a small flower appeared, the color of the stamens was slightly yellow, and the flowers were delicate and beautiful.

"Wow! It's really amazing, I've grown so big, it's the first time I've seen it! Xiao Jiu, you are amazing! ”

Listening to Senior Sister Fengxi's silver bell-like laughter and praise, Xiao Jiu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Today is your birthday, this scene should be for the fun of my senior sister, I wonder if my senior sister is still happy?"

"Rejoice, rejoice, rejoice! Ha ha! ”

God knows how happy she is at the moment.

Even if she and Xiao Jiu will not be able to live and die together in the future, as long as this moment, she is happy, it is enough.

"Thank you, Xiao Jiu."

After gently taking the branch in Xiao Jiu's hand in his hand, Feng Xi thanked him with tears in his eyes.

Immediately, without waiting for Xiao Jiu to say anything, he turned around and ran in the direction of the guest room.

Looking at Feng Xi's cheerful back, Xiao Jiu smirked for no reason.

Soon, Qiu An also thought of a way to punish the two, so Xiao Jiu also summoned the people of the Martial Arts League, as well as the people from the various sects who had witnessed this before, to the welcome hall.

In the main hall of the huge welcome hall, Xiao Jiuduan sat on the main seat, everyone sat on the guest seat, and Mi Yunfeng, Su Rui and others were tied up and knelt on the ground.

"Most of you here are people from my Martial Arts Alliance. And, of course, there are the righteous people. Since the deity sat in the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance, there are always people who are not convinced, and now, even within my martial arts alliance, there are traitors, which is really the deity's fault. Regarding the matter of being framed and planted this time, please give everyone an explanation from the master of the autumn hall! ”

"Yes!"

After Xiao Jiu finished speaking, everyone's eyes were all focused on Qiu Anyi.

"I'm sure you all know who it is! I won't go into detail in the following sections. I believe that the events of the day before yesterday are still in the ears of the people here, and they are vivid, so Qiu will not repeat it here, as for these traitors led by Su Rui and Mi Yunfeng, Qiu has also found out, and this matter is all ...... Mi Yunfeng is the master! intends to blame the death of the old leader of the alliance on the new alliance

Lord, I want to put the leader of the alliance to death! His behavior is very hateful! has seriously violated the rules of the Wulin League, and it is now announced that the two of them will be picked off their hamstrings! Abolish a body of martial arts and remove your name from the Martial Arts League! The rest of the people will be beheaded! ”

After Qiu An also announced the results of punishing the two of them in public, Mi Yunfeng suddenly got up from the ground and wanted to say something, but his mouth was blocked by death.

"That's it! Now that the Qiu Hall Master has already announced the results, someone is coming! Just do it according to the will of the Autumn Hall Master! ”

Xiao Jiu gave an order, and soon someone took down all the people.

In fact, this punishment result was also agreed upon by Qiu An and Xiao Jiu in advance.

The reason why the mastermind stayed alive for the time being, and the accomplice was killed, firstly, it made Cao Spy's father and son feel uneasy, and secondly, after all, these two people still have some prestige in the martial arts alliance, and if they blindly kill them all, it will surely arouse the suspicion and dissatisfaction of others in the alliance.

And the most critical point is that the time is not yet ripe, and the blame can only be attributed to these two people, if the Cao father and son cannot be brought down in one fell swoop, Xiao Jiu will definitely not take this risk easily.

After all, this matter is still the fault of the people within the Wulin League, if there is no conclusive evidence, based on the confessions of Mi Yunfeng and Su Rui alone, he is still not sure that Cao Spy's father and son will obediently comply.

Instead of walking on thin ice like this, it is better to wait until Cao Zhi's birthday to explore the truth and make a decision.

However, Qiu Anyi's punishment result did not seem to be recognized by everyone present, and there were still people who kept whispering below.

"On that day, it was obviously mentioned when the two of them were biting each other, and this matter was instructed by Cao Spy, the clan relative of the Cao family, why didn't the Qiu Hall Master say a word about this matter today?"

The person who asked this was none other than Shangguan Feixue, the hall master of Wang'an Hall.

Just when Xiao Jiu was stunned, Qiu An's face was as usual

"That day was really the words of these two people who wantonly bit and gnawed, and they should not be counted! After being tortured afterwards, it was revealed that this was actually done by the two of them and had nothing to do with the second uncle. ”

In the face of Qiu Anye's explanation, although there are still doubts in it, after all, Qiu An has been in the Wulin League for a long time, and naturally has prestige, so the rest of the people do not have too many objections.

As soon as the turmoil in this matter passed, Xiao Jiu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The reason why he temporarily let go of Cao Spy was that he planned to give him a heavy blow when he was slack.

The person sent to spy on Cao Zhi has returned again.

said that Cao Zhi is now running out of oil and on the verge of death.

The reason why he publicized his ninetieth birthday so much was to put Xiao Jiu to death.

If Cao Zhi died at the hands of Xiao Jiu, it would inevitably cause the Cao clan to interrogate, and even if Xiao Jiu was the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, I am afraid that he would have to be punished!

Of course, these are Xiao Jiu's guesses, in fact, Cao Zhi just wants to use this move to let his third son Cao Liang know that his death is related to Xiao Jiu, so that he is willing to join forces with the Cao Spy brothers to have a chance of getting rid of Xiao Jiu!

so

Careful calculation, step by step, its scheming is really clever!

A few days later, Cao Spy sent a letter, planning to go to Qinglian Town with Xiao Jiu to celebrate Cao Zhi's birthday together.

"What time has it been? Why haven't Manxue and Fang Sakura arrived yet? ”

Seeing that it was almost noon, and there was still no trace of the two sisters, Cao Spy couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

"Second uncle, don't worry, wait."

Xiao Jiu was very arbitrary, leaning on the side of the carriage, pinching his waist with both hands.

It didn't take long to see Manxue and Fang Ying each bring their maids and walk out of the door with large bags and small bags.

"Why did you bring so many things?"

Xiao Jiu saw that a few people were really struggling to carry it, so he hurriedly waved his hand and asked the coachman to help carry it into the carriage.

"These are all birthday gifts prepared by the concubine for her grandfather, hehe!"

Seeing Manxue's cunning appearance, Xiao Jiu couldn't help but laugh

"That's it! As long as you don't tire the horse to death. Immediately, Xiao Jiu turned his head and said loudly to Cao Spy behind him: "Second uncle! It's good to go! ”

Cao Spy squinted, nodded, smiled evilly, and then turned around and got into the carriage in a dashing manner.

On the way from Yinglin Yuan to Qinglian Town, Xiao Jiu always looked restrained.

Seeing Xiao Jiu's nervousness, Man Xue hurriedly whispered in his ear

"Don't worry, husband, I have already informed the secret guard, and they will accompany us all the way to protect us secretly."

"Hmm." He wasn't worried about this, but in the past, he used to secretly compete with Cao Spy's people, but now he wants to pretend to be casual and go with him to celebrate Cao Zhi's old thief's birthday, which is really awkward.

Qinglian Town is located in the north, far away from Yinglin Yuan, the head of the Wulin League, so it took several days of turbulence before the group arrived.

But fortunately, there is still one day before Cao Zhi's birthday, and it is not too late.

To be honest, it's the first time in Xiao Jiu's life that he has come to Qinglian Town!

In the past, I had only seen descriptions of Qinglian Town in the books of the Qingyou Sect.

The terrain here looks a little lower, probably because of the north! Even though it's already spring, there's still a chill on my body.

As soon as I got off the carriage and looked up, the huge plaque of Caofu came into view.

"Manxue, Fang Ying, be careful."

Xiao Jiu turned around and reached out to help the two, but was brushed away by the snow.

"Husband doesn't have to be like this, I'm flexible and tight."

After finishing speaking, Man Xue jumped out of the carriage and reflexively helped Fang Ying carefully out of the carriage.

Xiao Jiu wasn't annoyed, but shook his head helplessly.

When Cao Spy also got out of the carriage, he stepped forward and bowed

"Uncle Tai, the younger generation is visiting the house for the first time, and I am tired of Uncle Tai to help guide the way."

"That's natural, alliance leader, please."

Cao Spy rolled his eyes awkwardly, and then pretended to be polite and made a "please" gesture to Xiao Jiu.

Stepping in from the main entrance, Xiao Jiu suddenly felt a sense of sudden enlightenment.

The more I went inside, the more I couldn't help but sigh that the Cao Mansion was huge.

I want to come to this Cao Zhiya

What a generous Lord! With this mansion, he still wants to covet his position as the leader of the martial arts alliance, and he is really not enough to swallow an elephant!

Following Cao Spy all the way through the corridor to the backyard, after seeing him talk to the housekeeper for a few words, Xiao Jiu and the others were arranged in a spacious guest room.

"Uncle Lao will help make arrangements!"

"Your Excellency, you don't have to be polite! The leader of the alliance will rest here today, and the old man will ask someone to prepare some living things to come and say goodbye. ”

In the past, these tasks were done by subordinates, but this time, in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, he went into battle himself.

However, if you can get rid of Xiao Jiu in one fell swoop this time, it is naturally good, and if it is not good, you have to successfully frame him, so that the third brother is willing to join forces with him to deal with this stinky boy!

Now my father's body is crumbling, but as long as he can pull the third brother over, with the third brother's ingenuity, the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance will inevitably fall into his hands!

At that time, he will be worthy of his father's trust in him.

After settling Xiao Jiu and the others, Cao Spy went straight to the direction of Cao Zhi's dormitory.

As soon as he entered the door, he heard Cao Zhi's weak cough.

"What happened to my father?"

Seeing Lang Zhong's frowning, it seemed to be very bad.
