In order to facilitate the annual meeting every year, the Qing family built a mountain villa on the mountain, which is so large that it is more than enough to accommodate thousands of people. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the depths of the villa there is a wide square, on which hundreds of round tables are placed, and thousands of people sit around the round tables to eat, drink and play, and the atmosphere is extremely lively.

After arranging a table for Nangong Dou, Mo Han and the others, Qing Ling'er took Zhang Xiaoye into the main hall that only the head of the regiment was qualified to enter.

In the main hall, there is a green wood sitting on the main seat, and a green bamboo is sitting under the left hand, but the figure of the emperor Zhou Wenqi is not seen, and it seems that he has gone back.

Scattered below were hundreds of hunting leaders, each with a sumptuous meal on its table, and even a priceless sake.

Just when everyone was eating happily, Zhang Xiaoxiao and Qing Ling'er walked into the main hall, and immediately attracted a lot of attention, and for a while, a series of piercing ridicules came.

"Isn't this the kid at the bottom?

"I heard that this kid and Zhongshan grabbed the wheel pig and were beaten half to death, but the skin is quite thick, and he can still get up to eat. ”

"Haha, is there really such an idiot who can't do anything about himself?

At the same time, on a table at the front, Zhong Shan was holding the Wheel Pig King in his hand and looking at Zhang Xiaoxiao with disdain.

Zhang Xiaoxiao didn't seem to hear these mockery, and there was still a faint smile on his face, but Qing Ling'er could hear the friction of the bones on the fist in his sleeve.

"Everyone, everyone is an ally of my Qing family, don't spoil the atmosphere of this annual meeting. ”

Aoki frowned, his eyes swept over everyone, and the hall was quieter, and after a pause, Aoki smiled at Zhang Xiaoxiao and said, "Head Zhang, take a seat." ”

"Hmm. ”

Zhang Xiaoxie nodded, and was about to walk towards the last empty table, when he suddenly saw Shen Yun behind Qingzhu, and said to Qing Ling'er beside him: "Are you free after eating?" I want to talk to you about something. ”

"Okay, I'll come to you after dinner. ”

Qing Ling'er nodded and walked over to Aoki.

"Good. ”

Zhang Xiaoxie's gaze swept across the main hall, and he walked to a table at the back and sat down.

Although the food on the table was rich, Zhang Xiaoxie didn't have much appetite, he ate two mouthfuls of food casually, drank two cups of Lunqi wine, exited the hall early, and after saying hello to Nangong Dou and others, he returned to the accommodation arranged for him by the Qing family.

He had experienced a lot of ridicule before, but after experiencing so many lives and deaths, he also understood that before he had strength, too much argument was meaningless, and over time, he had learned not to care about the eyes of others.

But this time it's different, because of Qing Ling'er.

was beaten half to death in front of the woman he liked, and he was sneered at by so many people in front of the woman he liked, but he didn't have the qualifications and strength to defend himself.

This kind of humiliation is like a spike piercing into the heart, trying to pull it out and pulling it out, but I can only slowly endure the pain.

"Dogs look down on people!"

Thinking of Zhong Shan's contemptuous eyes at the dinner table, he clenched his fists again.

"Boom, boom. ”

There was a knock on the door, and Qing Ling'er's voice came from outside the door: It's me.

Zhang Xiaoxie rubbed his face fiercely, adjusted his mood and opened the door.

"What are you going to tell me?"

Qing Ling'er wondered.

Zhang Xiaoye looked at the hunters of the hunting group who came and went around him, and said, "Let's change places, there are too many people here." ”

"Let's go to the back mountain. ”

Qing Ling'er nodded, and took Zhang Xiaoxie out of the villa and came to a beautiful cliff.

At this time, it was already evening, the bright moon was hanging high, and the breeze was blowing Qing Ling'er's hair, making her face extremely beautiful in the moonlight, and Zhang Xiaoye couldn't help but be in a trance.

"Don't say it yet?"

Qing Ling'er frowned.

"Uh, good...."

Zhang Xiaoxie was slightly stunned, his face was a little hot, and said, "Has the murderer been found?"

Qing Ling'er shook her head and said, "There are some speculations, but I can't be sure yet." ”

Zhang Xiaoye hesitated for a moment and said, "Have you ever suspected Shen Yun?"

"Shen Yun?"

Qing Ling'er looked at Zhang Xiaoxie with strange eyes, and said, "We did suspect him, how did you know?"

"I....I feel, he's weird. ”

"It's really strange, and the time of appearance is also strange, it happened to be not long after the death of the person from the Baiku family. ”

Qing Ling'er paused, shook her head again, and said, "After the last incident, my father asked him to show his attributes, not the explosive water attributes, so he is definitely not from the Baiku family." ”

"Moreover, if the Baiku family wants to collect corpses, why do so many wheel masters in the Western Zhou Dynasty want to start with our Qing family, this approach is too unwise. ”

"Not a water blast?"

Zhang Xiaoxie frowned, pondered for a moment and said, "Your family can invite other wheel masters as guests, and so can the Baiku family, what if Shen Yun is the guest of the Baiku family?"

"We're guessing that right now. ”

Qing Ling'er nodded, hesitated for a moment, and said, "But if this speculation is true, then my second grandfather Qingzhu also has a problem, because Shen Yun was personally brought into the Qing family by him, and this kind of result is something that my father and I don't want to see." ”

"Elder Qingzhu, this is too much to implement. ”

Zhang Xiaoxie was slightly stunned, then sighed, and said, "Could it be that you asked me to bring someone here at this annual meeting, and it has something to do with this matter?"

"Not bad. ”

Qing Ling'er nodded and said, "Zhou Wenqi has always been jealous of our Qing family, on the surface, he uses the Tianji Eye Wheel Master to monitor the entire imperial capital and protect the people of the whole city, but in fact, he focuses on monitoring the movements of our Qing family, but he doesn't know that our Qing family also has a Tianji Eye Wheel Master monitoring the royal family!"

"You have it too!" Zhang Xiaoxie was slightly startled.

"Well, but it's not easy to raise a Tianji Eye Wheel Master. ”

Qing Ling'er nodded, and suddenly frowned and said: "Under the monitoring of that Tianji Eye Wheel Master, we found that the second grandfather has been in close contact with Zhou Wenqi in the past two years, and they are all secretly in contact, before this year's annual meeting, Zhou Wenqi mobilized many troops to be stationed in various places in the imperial capital in the name of clearing the evil wheel division, but through the observation of the Qingjia Tianji Eye Wheel Division, these troops of the royal family are actually stationed around our Qing family's mansion. ”

"Are you worried that the royal family will make a move on you in the New Year?" Zhang Xiaoxie reacted suddenly.

"Well, although this possibility is very small, it is necessary to guard against people, and I hope this annual meeting can pass smoothly. ”

Qing Ling'er said the end, and sighed a little tiredly.

"Since you know that Elder Qingzhu has a close relationship with Zhou Wenqi, why don't you interrogate him directly?"

"Interrogation?"

Qing Ling'er showed a wry smile and said, "The second grandfather is the only remaining elder of the Qing family, not only is he powerful, but he also has a high prestige in the clan, although my father is the head of the family, he can't control many things. ”

"Alas, you big families are really troublesome. ”

Zhang Xiaoxie sighed helplessly.

"The head of the family has been inherited for a long time, and many branches will be derived, if these branches reach a certain number, this kind of thing will slowly wear out, but will be replaced by the hierarchy, if it is not for the nominal thing of bloodline, many big families would have been in civil strife a long time ago, and those families who have inherited for thousands of years are even more so. ”

Qing Ling'er said at the end, with a faint helplessness in her tone.

Zhang Xiaoxie is just a little person who has risen from the bottom, and he doesn't know much about the family relationship in Qing Ling'er's mouth, and he doesn't know how to speak for a while.

"Forget it, it's useless to talk to you about that. ”

Qing Ling'er suddenly sighed, looked at Zhang Xiaoxie and said, "If we really go to war with the royal family, which side will you help?"

"Of course it's you!"

Zhang Xiaoxie said without hesitation.

"So sure?"

Qing Ling'er was slightly stunned and said, "Is it because we are allies?"

Zhang Xiaoye was slightly stunned, biting his lip, as if he didn't dare to say anything, and after a while, he made a mosquito-like voice: "Because of you!"

Qing Ling'er didn't know if she heard or not, but her body trembled slightly, and after a moment of silence, she said: "This world is very big, so big that the end you see is not a boundary, many people want to become stronger, they all want to stand at the peak and overlook all beings, the distance between many people is actually not far, but with the strength of the strength, the distance between the heart will slowly widen." ”

"What you see now is the sky of the Western Zhou Kingdom, it looks very big, when you really go out, you will understand how big the sky is, some people are standing in the sky to see us, what we are trying to pursue now is just a joke to them, only when you really stand at that height, you will have that feeling. ”

"Your road is very long, dual attributes are rare, and you also have a powerful Qi cultivation method, as long as you are given time, you will definitely stand on a high place. ”

"Wheel King, Wheel Emperor, Wheel Sect, Tianzun, Heavenly Sage, these realms are not dreams, but too many fireflies need time to grow, and too many people die in the process, so before that, it's best to save your life first!"

Qing Ling'er said a lot of words inexplicably, looked at the stars in the sky, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"You want to say that I'm still far away from you?"

Zhang Xiaoxie frowned, as if he had missed the point of Qing Ling'er's words.

"I don't know why I said this, but I just felt like I wanted to say it. ”

Qing Ling'er combed the hair in front of her forehead, and said with a slight smile: "It's good now, at least we can stand together and look at the moon." ”

"yes, it's beautiful. ”

Zhang Xiaoxie looked at the sky, not knowing whether to praise the bright moon or something.

"No matter how beautiful it is, it will be replaced by the sun, okay, go back and rest, and tomorrow you will enter the Qi Gathering Array." ”

"You go back first. ”

"What about you?" Qing Ling'er was slightly stunned.

"Look at the moon. ”

"Well, then you should rest early. ”

Qing Ling'er nodded, turned to leave, and the slender shadow was slowly elongated by the moonlight.

"Distance......?"

Zhang Xiaoxie sighed and lay on the ground, letting the moonlight shine on his face, and became inexplicably irritable.

"Boom!"

A bang came from afar.

"What's that?"

He sat up and looked in the direction where the voice came from, and after a moment, his face changed greatly: Ling'er!

Before he had time to think about it, he turned into a black shadow and ran in the direction from which the voice came.
