Chapter 385: Xiao Qi's helplessness
The next few days were quite calm, nothing happened on the sea, and it was all a vacation!
"It's a wonderful day of peace!" said Aku, stretching his back.
In the past few days, Nicole has been very attentive to painting on the demon balloon, although the painting is miserable, but Ah Gu still thinks that her daughter's painting talent is extraordinary, do you want to invite a teacher to teach it in the future?
Just in case, Agu also taught Nicole an exorcism spell.
This incident made the demon balloon full of resentment, because as long as he dared to disobey Nicole's wishes, there would definitely be an exorcism spell, although Nicole's magic power was limited, but the damage of the exorcism spell was real.
It's like for an ordinary person, it hurts to cut with a knife and prick with a needle.
In a few days, the Demon Balloon has been appointed, who is going to let their lives suffer?
The little mermaid is still practicing walking hard, and it has been the same for the past few days, and it can walk for five minutes without the help of others, which is a very big improvement for a mermaid!
After drifting on the sea for so long, Agu began to miss life on land.
"I don't know how my brother and Xiao Qi are doing? Will Xiao Qi and his father-in-law and mother-in-law fight?"
......
"The city lord invited you to the dance tonight, do you want to go!" Qing Ming looked at Xiao Qi.
There was displeasure written in his eyes.
At first, she thought that the prom was all about everyone dancing together, but then she found that things were far from being as simple as he imagined, and the conflicts of interest between the various families in the city of ice and fire were vividly displayed in the prom!
Not only that, but the ball of these nobles is also a very erosive place, where the noblewomen cheat and the eldest and young masters of the noble families have fun, all in this place!
Xiao Qi had been there once before, and Qing Ming was no longer allowed to go.
Xiao Qi is not stupid, he is even very smart, he naturally knows that Qing Ming is jealous, he is now a celebrity in the City of Ice Lake, I don't know how many ladies and eldest ladies covet him!
I don't know how many nobles want to have something to do with Xiao Qi, as long as they can have something to do with Xiao Qi, they can get in touch with Xiao Qi's back, it's a thick thigh that can't be thicker, and even at the dance, there are people who directly drug Xiao Qi, and it's still a girl.
If Xiao Qi hadn't noticed it quickly, maybe it would have caused a big disaster!
It's no wonder that Qing Ming is unhappy.
Xiao Qi's heart was a little hesitant, if he didn't go, he was afraid that he would lose the face of the city lord, and the strong dragon would not suppress the head snake, and he would have to live here in the future, and it would not be worth offending the city lord.
If you go, I am afraid that Qingming will be unhappy, and I will suddenly fall into a dilemma, and I don't know what to do!
"I'm too difficult!" Xiao Qi said helplessly, holding his head.
He didn't know what to do!
In the end, there was no way, so I could only ask my uncle for help.
The nameless guest has been taking care of the children at home for the past few days, and when he saw Xiao Qi coming, and there was still suffering on his face, he knew that something was wrong!
"What's wrong with the little bunny?" said the nameless chuckle.
Xiao Qi really had no choice but to express his troubles.
The nameless guest laughed when he heard this: "I thought your family was so open-minded, it turned out to be a big vinegar jar, in fact, women are like this, and the same is true for cicada clothes, I look at other women on the street a few more times, and give me a face as soon as I get home! Jealousy is innate!"
"Uncle Shi, don't laugh there, hurry up and help me come up with an idea!" Xiao Qi hurriedly said.
The nameless guest smiled slightly: "You are still too tender, and if you want to shirk a dance party, you will say that your teacher has something to call you temporarily, and you can't participate in this dance party." Their real purpose is to win over your teacher, so naturally they don't dare to say a word or fart more. I'm going to do everything I can to win you over! I'll do what I say!"
To put it bluntly, it's a tiger skin!
Xiao Qi's eyes lit up, why didn't he understand such a simple truth?
Behind him stood a giant.
An hour before the banquet began, the city lord sent someone to invite Xiao Qi.
"Lord Xiaoqi, how about we leave now? Go and prepare! I think there will be many famous ladies from noble families, all looking forward to your shining appearance!" It was the city lord's butler who spoke, with a hypocritical smile on his face.
Xiao Qi also showed the same hypocritical smile: "I'm really sorry for this, I just received an order from the teacher, I have something urgent to ask me to go, I'm afraid I won't be able to participate in tonight's dance! Please take me to apologize to the city lord!"
When the housekeeper heard this, he hurriedly said: "Lord Agu's matter is urgent, it's just a small misunderstanding, don't care, I'll go and tell the city lord!"
I don't know who walked, and the news that Xiao Qi was going to see Ah Gu spread all over the ears of the major nobles of the City of Ice and Fire in the blink of an eye!
Soon the nobles sent their own envoys to present all kinds of precious gifts.
"Little Seven, is this a gift for Lord Agu, you must accept it!"
"Lord Xiaoqi, this is a top-grade magic stone, you must accept it, by the way, this is a gift for Lord Agu, I'm sorry for you!"
"Lord Xiaoqi, these materials were asked to me by Lord Ah Gu last time, and I have already found them all, please bring them to Lord Ah Gu!"
In an instant, all kinds of situations in the world are in sight!
But at the same time, it also reminded Xiao Qi that in this world, although power does not represent everything, as long as there is strength, it will be respected, if you are honestly a greedy and lustful person, as long as you say a word, there will be countless people who will offer their wives and daughters, and collect all the gold and silver treasures!
"I can't always live in the shadow of the teacher, I have to work hard to create a world by myself!
But these various precious materials sent to him, of course, he accepted them unceremoniously, he and Qing Ming needed them now, which would be of great benefit to their cultivation of magic.
"Lord Xiaoqi, these ten beauties were carefully selected by me and specially used to serve you and Lord Agu, please accept them!" a nobleman with a fat brain hurriedly said.
The expression on Xiao Qi's face instantly stiffened, if he accepted these ten beauties, he would not lift the roof when he went back to Qingming!
And these women may have the eyeliner of this nobleman, and they don't want to live under surveillance all the time!
"I've thanked you first, but my teacher already has someone to take care of, so I can't accept it!" Xiao Qi said without humility or arrogance.
"It's okay, it's okay, I also have a box of magic gems here, which should be regarded as a meeting gift for Lord Xiaoqi!" said the nobleman with a fat brain, and a girl behind him walked out and brought a small red wooden incense!
Although the girl who came over was not as beautiful as the country, she was far more beautiful than the ten girls just now.
"This is a little girl! If Lord Xiaoqi doesn't dislike it, let her serve you, there is no other meaning, and it is no problem to use it as a maid!" said the nobleman with a fat brain.
The girl had no other expression on her face, just a smile, as if she hadn't heard her father's words at all!
Xiao Qi felt angry when he heard this, what kind of thing is this?
Just when Xiao Qi was about to refuse, Qing Ming, who had been hiding in the inner room, walked out: "Since people have a heart, let's leave this girl behind!"
Xiao Qi and Qing Ming don't look at each other for a long time, but the tacit understanding is often innate, as soon as Qing Ming said this, Xiao Qi knew what it meant, smiled and nodded: "Since this is the case, I am wronged to love!"
"Where is Lord Xiaoqi?Caiyin, thank you Lord Xiaoqi!" said the nobleman with a fat brain to the girl.
"Thank you, Lord Xiaoqi!" said the girl named Caiyin respectfully.
Xiao Qi nodded slightly, and then said loudly: "I still have important things here, so I can't accompany you, please forgive me!"
"Lord Agu's affairs are important! Lord Xiao Qi let go of it, if there is anything that needs our help, go to the soup and go to the fire!" These nobles said loudly, the righteousness of what they said was awe-inspiring, and what they said was impassioned, and Xiao Qi felt pierced his ears when he listened to it!
These nobles left Xiao Qi's villa one after another, and then many small nobles moved closer to the fat-brained nobleman just now, his daughter was accepted by Xiao Qi, if he was lucky, he might also become a person next to Lord Agu, and the wealth was limitless!
This fat-brained aristocrat felt like he was walking with the sound of the wind, completely different from when he came!
Xiao Qi frowned, he was very unaccustomed to the style of these nobles, anyway, Qing Ming felt that it didn't matter, she grew up in a big family since she was a child, and she saw a lot of such things!
"It's okay, just get used to it in the future, it's not so easy to become a magician, and dealing with these nobles is inevitable!" Qing Ming comforted her fiancé.
Caiyin stood respectfully behind Xiao Qi, waiting for the order of the news at any time, her father had told her before, no matter what kind of request Xiao Qi made, even if it was abused, she would grit her teeth and stand up, and even have a smile on her face to meet the tragic fate!
"Tell me who you are, is it really the fat man's daughter?" doesn't look like it!" Xiao Qi asked.
A respectful smile appeared on Caiyin's face: "Lord Xiaoqi said that we are really father and daughter, but I am an illegitimate daughter." My father was drunk and had a maid...... And then there was me!"
In this world, everyone has one or two sad pasts, and this girl named Caiyin is no exception.
Not long after she was born, her mother was abused to death, and her father raised her, more to treat her as a commodity and sell it for a good price in the future!
Now he has done it and sold his daughter for a sky-high price!
In a short period of time, the status of this nobleman with a fat boss in the City of Ice and Fire will soar rapidly!
After listening to Caiyin's self-report, Xiao Qi only felt a sullen breath in his chest, and he couldn't vent it for a long time!
He has seen the evil in this world, when the orcs invaded, the human empire was devastated, with countless deaths and injuries, but every time it came to that time, he could always see the true feelings of the world, between father and daughter, between father and son, between lovers, many people did not hesitate to give up their lives in order for the people they cherished to live!
This is also the reason why Xiao Qi can persist on the battlefield!
But why, for the sake of power, power, money, and profit, these people will easily give up their relatives, or even kill their loved ones with their own hands?
Incomprehensible!
Xiao Qi could only sigh.
