"Hey, don't play dead, get up, get up!"

Zhang Xiao walked up to Lin Qi, stretched out his foot and kicked him twice, his expression seemed very relaxed.

"Senior, don't make trouble, look at my bloody ......"

"What blood is not bloody, it's just a miss, a little off, skin trauma!"

What does it mean to miss a hand? What does it mean to deviate a little? This is going to be too big, and I'm really dead!

Lin Qi looked unhappy, but he couldn't really say anything, at this time, he breathed a little bit of Zhenyuan, the true qi was full, and the operation was smooth, except for a little detachment, it seemed that there was really nothing to do.

At this time, Zhang Xiao had already stepped aside.

Wiping the blood on his forehead, Lin Qi slowly sat up from the ground, he looked back at Zhang Xiao's back, and at this time, in addition to surprise, there was more confusion in his eyes.

"Senpai, why me?"

Hearing Lin Qi's question, Zhang Xiao seemed to understand what the other party meant, chuckled lightly at this time, and then turned around.

"Compared with that little girl, maybe in the talent and attainments of the sword, you can't compare, but that little girl, but has gradually had its own line of kendo prototypes, this time is the critical period, I don't want to use my own sword intent, to give her unnecessary influence, but you are different, although all the laws are clear, but there are almost no characteristics of their own, the way of the sword, but also ordinary, no bright spots, so to shape, the difficulty is relatively small, not to mention, there is almost no sense of rejection. ”

Hearing that Zhang Xiao was about to devalue himself worthless, even though Lin Qi had a good temper and was used to being low-key, he still had a little temper, but at this time, he was facing one of the best sword gods in the world, but he had nowhere to vent, so he could only listen humbly, for a while, Lin Qi didn't know what it was like in his heart.

"As for why it's not someone else, it's actually very simple, first, you have a simple background, you don't need to go too deep at all, you can get a rough idea, second, I want to deal with the Heavenly Demon Gate, and you have fought with the Heavenly Demon Gate several times, so you know them better, so it's more suitable, third, I personally like your character, especially you, calm and introverted, confident and focused, if you are a killer, it must be very suitable!"

Listening to Zhang Xiao's words as if he was joking, Lin Qi couldn't help but believe him, after all, the other party was the sword god Zhang Xiao, so if there was any special reason, it was very normal to think about it.

Lin Qi shook his head, smiled bitterly, and slowly stood up from the ground, he covered his chest, feeling the sword intent that Zhang Xiao left in his body, only to feel that his entire sea of qi was very full.

"Senior, what are the two paths you just mentioned?"

"Why, you have finally decided to accept the status quo?" Zhang Xiao did not say no, but asked.

Hearing Zhang Xiao's words, Lin Qi smiled helplessly, but it did not contain any resistance.

"Now, do I have a choice?"

Zhang Xiao smiled and nodded, as if he was not satisfied with Lin Qi's response.

"Now, there are only two paths in front of you, the first is to try your best to pick up my sword, and the second is to try your best to put down my sword and pick up your own sword!" Zhang Xiao finished speaking, and actually showed a slightly playful smile, "No matter which way, you need to use all your strength to control and digest this sword intent of mine, if you can't do it, hehe, you should know the consequences." ”

Is it either dead or maimed?

Although this sword intent is relatively calm for the time being, and there is no out-of-the-ordinary performance, Lin Qi can still feel the fierce momentum attached to the sword intent, you know, this is Zhang Xiao's sword intent, if you really want to go violent, it is estimated that it is enough to drink a pot by yourself.

"Senior, what do you need me to do?"

Seeing that Lin Qi accepted his current situation so quickly, Zhang Xiao was a little surprised.

"Well, I'll tell you a little bit first, and I'll tell you more about it when the day comes. ”

"Although I am the master of the Sword Pavilion, it is precisely because of this, because of some earlier agreements and some other reasons, there are many places that I cannot set foot in, do you understand what I mean?"

Even Zhang Xiao, the sword god of the world, who has reached the realm of the Grandmaster in martial arts, has a place where he can't go? If you really want to talk about it, maybe it's somewhere in the palace, compared to the Sword Pavilion to be restricted by the royal family, in the whole world, maybe only Emperor Yang can stop Zhang Xiao.

Seeing Lin Qi's eyes, Zhang Xiao nodded, naturally knowing that the other party had probably guessed it.

"So, I need you to replace me, go somewhere, to investigate something, and it's important, I have to find someone who is capable, trustworthy, and not so conspicuous, so, you are the candidate!"

Hearing Zhang Xiao's words, Lin Qi suddenly felt a little proud, because the person chosen by the Sword God of the world was himself.

"However, if you want to go to that place and sneak in from outside the palace, it will definitely not work, so I need you to enter the finals, because as long as you can enter the finals, you can get Zhao Jing's personal reception, and such an interview will definitely be in Zhao Jing's study, at this time, it is the best time to sneak in!"

Unexpectedly, there was such a plan in this, but now, Lin Qi has another question.

"Then, senior, what are you planting a sword for me? As long as I can enter the finals, wouldn't it be good?"

Hearing Lin Qi's question, Zhang Xiao was stunned for a moment.

"For what? Of course, it's to make sure that you can make it to the finals, to make sure things go smoothly, and to do it foolproof, after all, with your current strength, you're still too weak, and if you give up because of this, I'll have to find another way at that time." ”

Although Zhang Xiao's words were a bit shocking, Lin Qi couldn't think of anything to refute for a while, although he was a little angry, but in the face of Zhang Xiao, he could only endure it.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the darkness, Lin Qi was taken aback, turned his head suddenly, but saw Chen Zizheng alone, and walked over slowly.

"Don't worry, I called him. ”

Hearing Zhang Xiao's words, Lin Qi was a little relieved.

"Okay, since that's all over, let Little Brother Lin come to me to sort it out, if you go back like this, I'm afraid I'll have to cause some trouble in vain!"

Lin Qi didn't understand, and was stunned, but he didn't expect Zhang Xiao to laugh instead.

"That's that, don't look at that little girl who looks harmless to humans and animals on weekdays, I'm afraid of annoying her, I guess she won't be a good master!"

......Seeing that Zhang Xiao and Chen Zizheng were laughing at themselves, Lin Qi chose to remain silent.

......

When Lin Qi returned to his residence, it was almost dawn, and when he walked into the room, he saw the little girl, holding her mattress, sleeping soundly, but the frowning brows that were still frowning in her sleep did make Lin Qi secretly feel a little distressed.

Sorry to worry you again.

Lin Qi walked to the side of the bed, sat down gently, and stretched out his hand to wipe away the sorrow of the girl's brows, at this moment, Lin Qi suddenly found that the little girl in front of him had actually grown up, and she was no longer the one before, she had nothing to worry about, she would only obey her own arrangement, and she would be happy as long as she had something to eat.

Just when Lin Qi was full of thoughts, Firefly slowly opened her eyes.

The girl's sleepy eyes were hazy, but even so, the moment she saw Lin Qi, Firefly instantly smiled, innocent, and dispelled the haze buried in Lin Qi's heart in an instant.

"Little Seven, good morning!"

"Good morning!"
