Chapter Ninety-Six: Encountering Old Acquaintances in a Foreign Country
"So you made your own decision to bring him to see the master, right, Ming Ming Ye had strictly ordered not to be disturbed by any elves before?"
Huo Qi opened the ancient thick carved wooden door, saw the two elves, and raised his eyebrows. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
Without waiting for the other party to speak, Huo Qi took it by himself: "Ather, your judgment is very correct. ”
Huo Te thought that he would be condemned, but he didn't expect Huo Qi to actually affirm him, he was excited for a while, hurriedly bowed, and said respectfully: "Your Highness Xie Qi." ”
Huo Qi turned to look at Zou Qiaoren, who was a little indifferent and expressionless on the side, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "After many years, don't come unharmed, Ah Qiao." ”
At this time, Zou Yuren's face also softened, and said, "Brother Qi is still the same as before, he likes to fool us with a straight face. ”
"Haha, you still know me," Huo Qi automatically changed his name to his brother who had known him for many years, "Ah Lu, you came just in time, I was deciding on something, and as soon as you came, I saved a lot of trouble." ”
"What do you mean with an elf?" replied Zou Qiaoren.
"Could it be that you're here for this?" Huo Qi raised his eyebrows.
"Yes. Can Brother Qi let me meet him?"
"Tsk, why not, but it's thanks to you that you came in time, otherwise you know my character, for the safety of Huo'er, I'm afraid I'll have already disposed of him." "The fire is the right way.
Zou Yuren secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately caught up, in fact, after getting the news that Si Jia might be in the Fire Clan and was rescued by the little princess of the Fire Clan, he really left the mess of the Water Clan that had not yet been cleaned up, and rushed here day and night! After all, if it was something related to Huo'er, Huoqi would probably rather kill him by mistake than let it go, because Huo'er was of too great significance to him and to Huo'er, so that Huoqi could not take the slightest risk. Fortunately, after so many days, God finally let him meet a good thing.
"So, is he in this room?" asked Zou Qiren with a sigh of relief.
"Otherwise, if you can get me to give a ban, where can the guy who interrogated me secretly be, you know where I am, he is. Huo Qi smiled, waved his hand to signal Huo Te to stand down, turned around and led Zou Yu into the room.
Si Jia kept looking at the door, Huo Qi was only half open, he was tall and tall, blocking the comer, he couldn't see the appearance of the comer, and he was embarrassed to shout, but he obviously heard the name of Zou Qiaoren, so he had to stretch his neck and look at it, and he was in a hurry, but they finally came in.
Obviously there are only a few dozen steps away, why is it so far away, it is obviously close in front of you, but you still look through the autumn water.
When Zou Qiao finally stood in front of Si Jia's eyes, Si Jia's hanging heart was finally half released.
Si Jia just looked at Zou Qiaoren, Zou Qiao people are thinner than before, presumably he must have suffered a lot this month, Si Jia actually felt that his nose was sour for a while, obviously he was a big man, at this time I don't know why I wanted to cry inexplicably, and at the same time, Zou Qiao people also looked back at him, with happiness in their eyes, but also with relief, obviously Si Jia is still alive in this world, this elf domain makes him feel comforted, after all, it is the little brother who said to cover, that is a brother for life.
For a while, he was speechless and choked.
"Seeing you like this, there is no need to say more, your identity is recognized by the master. Huo Qi smiled crookedly, and was the first to break the silence, and he turned to Zou Qiao, "Ah Qiao, you have come from afar, I will immediately start arranging your reception, you can stay with me for a few days, so that you can do your best for your brother." ”
"Brother Qi is polite, but this time I came alone, I only informed Sister Ah before I came, I will not be able to stay for a long time, not to mention, my clan still has many tricky things to deal with, I will go back immediately after dealing with the matter here, I'm afraid I can't live up to Brother Qi's hospitality!" Zou Qiao arched his fist and said apologetically.
"Hey, hey, you can't say this, after many years of absence, how can I just let you go, why do you have to stay for two days!"
Huo Qi insisted.
"Brother Qi, I ......"
"If you are really worried about the affairs of the water tribe, then you have to stay, stay, and tell your brother, and your brother can also give you some pointers, isn't it? Besides, with my understanding of you, you don't know anything about politics, and you are just accompanying Princess Haiya when you go back. But have you ever thought that at such a moment, maybe the princess would prefer to be alone, quietly? Your departure may be a comfort to her. Huo Qi looked Zou Qiaoren's black outfit up and down before talking slowly.
"Brother Qi, what you said is very reasonable, but Sister she ......" When Zou Qiao mentioned Haiya, the sadness in his eyes could not be hidden.
"Don't worry, besides, the soldiers I brought with you last time haven't been withdrawn yet, it's okay, it's safe. Huo Qi saw that Zou Qiao was shaken, and made persistent efforts.
"Even so, maybe Brother Qi is right, but Ah Qiao still hopes to go back as soon as possible, even if Sister Ah doesn't want me to accompany me, but at this time, I must be by Sister A's side, even if it is useless. Zou Qiao said resolutely.
"Then today, you must stay today, stay here tonight, and leave tomorrow!" Huo Qi made a concession.
"Ah Lu, you don't need to say more, your brother's mind has been decided, not to mention that if you agree, I will tell you a piece of news, a piece of news that you desperately want to know. Huo Qi laughed and groaned.
"News, could it be—" Zou Yuren's mind was like a streamer, and his sword brows furrowed slightly.
"Don't guess, it's the one who has been busy with your work for more than a month, and you still have to squeeze yourself to take time out and send people to secretly investigate the whereabouts of that famous adult, what, is this gift enough?" Huo Qi suddenly leaned up and said in his ear.
Zou Qiaoren's sword eyebrows suddenly relaxed, he struggled slightly, and then made a decision, he nodded and agreed, "In this way, Ah Qiao will thank Brother Qi first." ”
"Then, let's talk about it first," Huo Qi pointed to Si Jia, who had been waiting quietly with Zou and the people who had been waiting quietly, and then strode away, and when he passed by the Zou people, he asked in a low voice, "I don't know what kind of thoughts you have for that adult?"
Zou Qiao heard this provocative remark, his face turned red as soon as the blood gushed, and before he could explain, Huo Qi had already closed the door and went out.
That stupid woman, how can I be at ease with her! Brother Qi is really! I haven't seen her for a few years, but it's gossip, Zou Qiaoren thought to himself, but, that stupid woman, after that, what happened, is it okay, the injury is so serious, is it okay? Zou Qiaoren is still secretly worried.
"Boss, boss?"
"Well, what's wrong?" Zou came back to his senses and saw Si Jia's hand swinging in front of him.
"It's okay, I just called you a few times, and you didn't want me all the time. ”
"Oh, that's right. ”
"yes, by the way, boss, how did you know I was here?"
"Presumably Sijia, you also know my identity, as the only younger brother of the princess of the water tribe, the Duke of Tianjue of the water tribe, I want to know where you are, it's really not a difficult thing. Zou Qiao smiled, and now, it is finally time for both parties to disclose their identities and be honest with each other.
"Well, it's mainly because the spies I sent to the Xenowater Palace met Brother Qi's armed legion, and they revealed to me that Sister Huo'er saved a male elf on the mysterious lake where Atlantis was buried not long ago. Zou Qiao smiled.
"Then big brother, you came all the way to find me?"
"Of course. ”
"But big brother, at that time, it was obvious that you were so seriously injured, how could you get better in such a short time? You dragged the injury over!" Si Jia's heart tightened, although Zou Qiaoren's concern moved him, but he didn't want his only brother to have any accidents.
"Well, it's a long story, and it's exactly what I'm here to talk to you about today, but what I can tell you first is that my injuries are fine, and Sister Ah has healed, so you don't have to worry. It's just that after that, except for you, who I have now found, the whereabouts of the rest of the people are unknown. Although I used all of the Aquarium's intelligence network, I couldn't find any trace of it. But fortunately, Brother Qi just told me that he had found it, found it," Zou Qiren paused and continued, "I have found the Mermaid King." As for the Blue Water Lord, I think that since we can all come back safely, he must still be alive, so I guess he went back to his green water area and hid himself well before he was injured. But only Miss Yi Nian Temple, only the Bronze Queen, no news, no trace, as if the world had evaporated. ”
No news, no trace...... How could it be? The world evaporated? Impossible! Yi Nian Temple said that she would always be with me until the task was completed, how could she disappear, impossible, impossible! Si Jia's heart was weighed down by those eight words, and he couldn't breathe, and his breath suddenly became disordered, obviously in a panic.
"But don't panic, Sister promised me to do my best to search, don't panic, big brother, big brother, I will definitely bring her back to see you!" As if knowing Si Jia's deep affection for Yi Nian Temple, secretly infatuated, Zou Qiao also expressed his understanding, trying to soothe Si Jia's emotions.
"That, that, that talk counts, boss!" Si Jia seemed to grasp a life-saving straw, his eyes were sad, and anyone who looked at it was a little unbearable.
"Hmm. Okay, let's not talk about that, but before we get down to business, I'll ask you a few questions, Siga. Zou Qiao leaned closer, patted Si Jia's shoulder, and comforted.
"Ask, Boss, by the way, Boss, sit down. Si Jia pointed to the chair that Huo Qi had been sitting on just now.
"Good. ”
Zou Yuren nodded, sat down, took off the white gloves on his hand, and rested on the carved gold table on the side.
"White gloves, black suit...... Boss, what's wrong. Siga hesitated for a moment, then finally mustered up the courage to ask.
He noticed the unusual dress of the Zou people at the beginning, but because of the presence of the Fire Clan patriarch before, and this kind of not very good thing, he really didn't know how to ask, but it was inappropriate not to ask.
Generally speaking, for families like the Shui Tribe, their etiquette is similar to that of Europeans in the human world, white gloves, black suits, and not a driver, then it should be a funeral...... If it's a funeral, who will die? It won't be Haiya, it won't be the boss, who will be in the water tribe? What has happened in the past month! Why am I the only one who has slept for a month and don't know anything? Siga felt extremely annoyed.
"I'm still wondering when you'll ask, but it turns out that before I asked you, you asked," Zou Ziren's mouth hooked, and his black eyes showed a rare sad look, "This is for Hex." ”
Hex?!yes!
Hearing this name, in an instant, scattered fragments of memory flashed quickly in Siga's mind, the scorching magma, the resolute figure for love, the pierced chest, the fall, the terrifying despair, crying......
Sigar felt a terrible headache, and the interweaving of memories made him miserable, and suddenly, his painful look was gone, and his eyes were empty, because he suddenly realized that Hex, he was indeed dead......
Because, the first time, he failed to grab his hand, so, he died......
Thinking of this, Siga's eyes began to cry, and he was full of tears and remorse.
"I know, you know the news, it must be uncomfortable, let alone Sister......" Zou Qiao sighed faintly, looking at the tearful Sijia, his voice was as light as a mosquito, "Sister watched Hex die in front of him, Sister, she is still ...... How unbearable is this? ”
In the world, the most painful thing is life and death. He died to save you, and you have to live in the world, and you will live alone for the remaining decades of loneliness.
