The spring mountain breeze is getting warmer and warmer, blowing softly from the water, with a faint fragrance of flowers.

Qianye turned the thin porcelain cup in his hand, in the afternoon sun, this light gadget is beautiful, delicate, translucent like glass, just like the surrounding furnishings and scenery, beautiful and beautiful, but it is incompatible with his world.

Song Zining poured another cup of tea for Qianye and said, "I heard that the chief manager of Wei Guogong has identified your talent, so I only went to look at you last night to see the situation." Is everything going well?"

Qianye nodded, "Manager Wen said that it was the dawn of dawn. He paused, and said with a smile, "You didn't have the idea to fight in the first place, did you? That's one of the three top talents of the Dawn Force!"

The friend sitting opposite took off his warm and jade-like appearance in front of people, brought out a bit of laziness and madness, and said casually: "You only used one eagle strike to snatch Zhao Junhong so many points, and then you can break through the siege, if it weren't for such a top talent, it would be strange." ”

Qianye frowned and said, "But if Mr. Wen wants to kill me, it shouldn't be because of this talent, right?"

Song Zining sat up straight abruptly and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"

Chiya recounted what had happened, thought about it, and talked about the possibilities that she had discussed with Kiki. Song Zining repeatedly asked a few details, and after confirming that Mr. Wen didn't see the old wound on Qianye's chest, he couldn't help but ponder.

At this time, Qianye thought of a detail that she hadn't told Qiqi, and said in confusion: "There seems to be a trace of dark force aura in the dark energy left by Chief Wen, but this shouldn't be, right?

"Everyone's path above the Warlord is very different, due to various secret opportunities, the bloodline and the Force will become very complicated, so there is a dark element in the Force attribute and the Force attribute falls into darkness. ”

Qianye's heart moved slightly, didn't this mean that if he could break through to the general, he could find a way to use the power of blood?

At this time, Song Zining had already finished thinking about it, and said slowly, "Mr. Wen has a perverse nature, but I don't think it's because of personal enmity. Even if the status of a person is high, there will be interests to impress him, so it is more likely that there will be trouble from Kiki's side. ”

"Kiki's siblings have such a great ability?"

Song Zining suddenly laughed, "Maybe it's really possible to go the way of Song Valve." ”

Qianye was taken aback, but looking at Song Zining's expression, it didn't look like a joke.

"Although Qiqi's mother family is a side branch of the Song Valve, her comprehensive strength is quite high, but no one in their generation has been selected as the heir of the Song Valve, so they have formed an alliance with my second brother. Song Zining said abruptly: "If Qiqi can really become the head of the Yin family, it is not only the balance of a family that will be broken, therefore, not only those people in the Yin family who are competing with her for the throne, but even Song Valve has people who don't want her to sit in the position of the head of the family." ”

After a little thought, Qianye understood eight or nine points, and then thought of one thing and asked, "I heard that you and Kiki don't have a good relationship, is it because of similar reasons?"

Song Zining winked at Qianye, and said in a surprising voice: "It's not just that the relationship is not good, after this Tianxuan Spring Hunt, it can be regarded as a break!"

Qianye was stunned, "Huh?"

Song Zining chuckled: "Didn't you find out that Ye Mulan was not there, she left to go back to the Song family two days ago to receive the punishment." ”

Qianye only felt that his friend's smile was a little gloating, which surprised him, after all, as far as he could see, Song Zining was quite indulgent to Ye Mulan, if not spoiled. Therefore, after Qianye and Song Zining recognized each other, they still had a headache on how to solve the relationship between them and Ye Mulan, which was almost a mortal enemy.

"That Miss Kiki of yours, just after the spring hunt was over, she wrote back to sue me. Song Zining knew that Dao Qianye was not very clear about the complex relationship between the various clans, so he explained: "My great-grandmother is also her maternal great-grandmother, Qiqi has a special identity, no matter how partial the ancestor is to me, she can't go too far, and her maternal line and allies will also speak in it." ”

Song Zining said happily: "Besides, I only won the fifth place in this spring hunt, and I also lost half of the senior guards. Ye Mulan was the commander of the hunting team, so he was naturally called back and punished for acting without permission. He smiled, "I guess when I go back, I will inevitably have to listen to the elders' admonitions." As for whether it will be officially recorded as a mistake, it depends on how much effort Qiqi has spent within the Song family to sue me this time. ”

Qianye saw that he was able to say a very serious matter so easily, and he didn't know how to react for a while, and said with a wry smile: "Although I don't know the internal situation of your clan, but if you remember this kind of thing, it will affect your heir assessment, right?" If this is the case, Song Zining said that he would break with Qiqi, and he was not alarmist, just looking at the heir examination within the Yin family, it was simply a war to the death.

Unexpectedly, Song Zining said with a smile: "Actually, it's not that serious, how can an heir like me who ranks in the middle of the rank become the owner of the valve? ”

Qianye frowned and said, "But why do you want to connive at Ye Mulan?

Song Zining supported his head with one hand, and flicked the body of the cup painted after the rain with the other, and said casually: "It's not very good." You see, even I may suffer a mistake this time, Ye Mulan's woman's punishment will be much heavier, and the ancestor will be very displeased. No matter how much the Song family values face and reputation, it is impossible to keep the marriage contract if there are one or two more things like Qiqi coming to the door to complain. ”

Looking at his friend with a gentle smile on his face, Qianye was speechless, he didn't expect Song Zining to also dissolve the marriage contract.

This Song Qigongzi's style of acting is completely different from Qiqi's. Qiqi is a toss and turns, and she ruins her reputation, but Gu Liyu is obviously a stoic person, and even Qianye can see that Qiqi has no hope of success at all. Song Zining only took the word 'killing', wantonly connived at Ye Mulan, and made her gradually get carried away and cause trouble, Song Zining was just 'innocently' ruined her reputation, so a few more times, even if someone wants to sit and watch the marriage contract come true, it can't withstand the maintenance of the family reputation by the elders of the Song Valve.

Song Zining smiled and said: "The contradiction with Qiqi is just that I am impatient to get involved in the heir dispute between the two families." Even if you serve the Yin family in the future, you won't have a direct conflict with me, so don't worry too much. ”

Qianye shook his head and said, "I was only hired by Kiki through the Hunters' Guild, and this spring hunt is the last mission. ”

Song Zining groaned slightly and said, "This is the best." The person in the Yin family who made your resume for you is very clever, and it is enough to hide people's eyes and ears at present. But if you really want to occupy a central position next to Kiki in the future, they will definitely have to figure out your identity and background. ”

Song Zining paused, obviously showing a hesitant look, then raised his head to look at Qianye, and said, "Do you know the origin of the old wound on your chest?"

Qianye's face changed slightly, and the huge scar on his chest that opened from half an inch below the atrium to his navel was almost a nightmare for his entire Huangquan career, even if he had become accustomed to that kind of pain later, it continued to slow down his Force cultivation progress. But Qianye never knew what kind of person he was, and why he left such a wound on him.

Song Zining sighed and asked softly, "Lin Shuai didn't tell you?"

Qianye suddenly felt a panic in her heart, took a deep breath and said, "I haven't seen Lin Shuai after graduation. He added, "At that time, Lin Shuai went to Western Xinjiang to quell the rebellion, and the war situation did not seem to improve at that time. ”

Song Zijing listened to him quietly, and then asked, "Lin Shuai didn't tell anyone else to tell you?"

A thousand nights were silent.

Song Zining said: "That's the scar of the Force's plunder. In other words, you were born with a first-class talent or higher, and you might have had a formed Force crystal after that wound. And the vast majority of people will only condense crystals after they have cleared the nine Force nodes and gathered together to form a vortex to break through the generals. Force plunder is taboo in the Empire, and most people don't even mention the term. There are only a handful of people who have the ability to do this kind of thing, and all of them are big people who are at the top. ”

Qianye listened quietly, Song Zining spoke slowly, every word was clear, but it took him a long time to understand all the meanings. Qianye raised her head, saw Song Zining's eyes, and asked, "Who are they?"

Song Zining leaned over the long table, pressed Qianye's shoulder, and then said softly: "The imperial family, the four valves, and those powerhouses at the peak of the empire." ”

Then came a deathly silence.

Qianye sat motionless, with a soft sound of 'pop', the teacup shattered in his hand, and the tiny crumbs all pierced into the palm of his hand, and blood beads rushed out drop by drop.

Song Zining looked at him and suddenly said: "Bowang Hou Shizi said to people that you were his childhood playmate, and the Wei family's cultivation of young children is different, and it has been a ten-year study tour since childhood, so it is reasonable." But I know that this is not the case, calculate the time, you and Wei Qiyang should have joined the army in the same year, he is a member of the Folded Winged Angel, but the Red Scorpion and the Folded Winged Angel have always been opponents in the army. ”

Qianye smiled bitterly, he finally knew where he learned the street gangster-like habits of Wei Dashizi, and he briefly talked about how he met Wei Potian.

A hint of understanding flashed in Song Zining's eyes, and he said, "Then he must have told you about the battle of the Red Scorpion." ”

Qianye took a deep breath and said with difficulty, "It has something to do with Lin Shuai?"

Song Zining nodded and said, "All the clues started with Lin Shuai and ended at Lin Shuai." Even the files of all the fallen soldiers on that occasion were all sealed by the Marshal's Palace, and if I hadn't happened to see your name in the obituary at that time, I had moved the idea of tracking down, and in a few months later, I wouldn't even know that you had entered the Red Scorpion. ”

"Say no more. Qianye interrupted Song Zining, "I won't believe any inferences until I have definite evidence." ”

Song Zining held Qianye's hand and sank, and said calmly: "If you hope that one day you can stand in front of Lin Shuai and ask him personally, then, Qianye, live well." ”

The sunrise and sunset in Qinlu are still based on such a constant trajectory, only the mountain breeze is warmer, and it seems that early summer is coming.

The next day's fighting ring match started on time in the martial arts arena. In the fourth round, Qianye's opponent was the son-in-law of a small family, and he still had some impressions of this person, and it seemed that he was ranked tenth in the spring hunting battle.
