Chapter 43: Walking Together
After killing Zhao Hai's six people, Dugu Yi did not look for the remaining pursuers sent by the Zhao family, nor did he rush north, but stayed in the mountains and forests to recuperate. Although he can't practice martial arts for the time being, his mental method can't be left behind, so he spends almost all of his day sitting quietly somewhere practicing nameless exercises, and the Colorful Bird and the Shadow Tiger are always by his side, they will only leave for a while when they are hungry, and they will come back immediately after finding food, so after seven days.
On this day, by the river, after Dugu Yi put the last water bladder filled with water into the storage ring, he turned to the colorful bird and the shadow tiger who were enjoying the morning sun.
"I'm leaving. ”
Although there is no common language, Dugu Yi and such two Yuan Beasts can also communicate, especially the Colorful Bird, which can understand almost all of Dugu Yi's words, which means that it has no less wisdom than Dugu Yi.
At this time, hearing Dugu Yi's voice, the colorful bird flew to Dugu Yi's shoulder, and the Shadow Tiger also stood up, looking at Dugu Yi as if he was waiting for him to go first.
Dugu Yi thought that the Colorful Bird and the Shadow Tiger didn't understand what he meant, so he said, "I'm leaving this forest, you can't go with me." ”
"Qiang Qiang!" the colorful bird tilted its little head and looked at Dugu Yi, as if it really couldn't understand what he meant this time.
"Although the Shadow Tiger is strong, there are also strong humans, and it will be dangerous if you go with me. Dugu Yi explained in detail: "There are many people in this world who specialize in hunting primordial beasts, and those people will kill you in order to get the primordial core in the body of the primordial beasts. ”
"Qiang Qiang!" the colorful bird finally understood what Dugu Yi was going to say, nodded lightly and flew towards the Shadow Tiger.
"Then I'm leaving. Dugu Yi looked at the colorful bird that flew away and said, "If I can return here in the future, I will come to see you." ”
After speaking, Dugu Yi turned around and took steps.
"Boom!"
Dugu Yi had just taken two steps when the Colorful Bird flew back to his shoulder, and the Shadow Tiger followed behind him.
"You're going to send me out of the forest?"
"Boom!"
After getting the answer, Dugu Yi took another step. After walking for about an hour, the man and the tiger finally came to the edge of the forest, and beyond that was the Gobi Desert, sparsely covered with bushes.
"That's it. ”
Dugu Yi turned to look at the forest and said gratefully to the Colorful Bird and the Shadow Tiger, "Thank you for saving me and accompanying me for so many days. ”
"Roar!" Shadow Tiger simply replied and turned around and jumped into the forest, almost out of sight, and finally turned around and glanced at Dugu Yi before leaving quickly.
The Shadow Tiger went back, but the colorful bird on Dugu Yi's shoulder did not leave, and it used its wings to make a 'goodbye' gesture in the direction the Shadow Tiger left.
"You're not going back?"
"Qiang Qiang!" the colorful bird chirped softly and flapped its wings and flew up, and it flew towards the north, telling Dugu Yi with its actions that it was going to go with him.
"That's it!" Dugu Yi looked up at the colorful bird, and his feet also moved, and at the same time he thought to himself: Such a big bird, ordinary people would not think that it is a high-level Yuan Beast, right?
The colorful bird in the air saw Dugu Yi walk up and fell back again, standing firmly on Dugu Yi's shoulder, completely treating Dugu Yi as its 'mount'.
............
On the same day that Dugu Yi and the colorful bird embarked on their journey, in the far north.
A pretty girl of twelve or thirteen years old stood quietly in the golden hall, while more than a dozen adults sat opposite her, with solemn faces.
"Qin Qin, are you guilty?"
The first to speak was a woman in her forties sitting on the far left, of course, no one would suspect that she was only in her thirties, but the eyebrows of this beautiful woman were full of anger at this time.
"What is my crime?" Qin Qin asked lightly, her cold eyes swept over everyone present, and she didn't regard these people as her elders at all.
"Isn't it a sin to privately hand over the superior exercises of your clan to outsiders?" This time it was a white-haired old man in his sixties who spoke in the middle.
Hearing this, Qin Qin smiled faintly and said in a cold voice: "A year ago, I gave someone a nameless exercise, but it wasn't something in your clan......
"It's not from your own clan, so where are you from?" asked the woman who spoke earlier before Qin Qin could finish speaking.
"Madame Frost, it's rude to interrupt someone. Qin Qin's cold eyes locked on 'Lady Frost'.
Being glared at by Qin Qin, Mrs. Shuang's heart was even more angry, and she stood up and pointed at Qin Qin, saying, "Even if you are a first-day talent in the clan, I will let you learn a lesson today and discipline you well for your parents who have never met." ”
Lady Frost was about to make a move, but before she could make a move, she was stopped by the man beside her.
"It's time for your fiery temper to change. The middle-aged man who grabbed Mrs. Frost shook his head helplessly.
"Do you still want to listen to the follow-up?" Qin Qin's cold voice sounded in the hall again, and the expression on her pretty face did not change in the slightest because of Madam Frost.
You go on. The white-haired old man in the middle said angrily.
The corners of Qin Qin's mouth curled, and he said indifferently: "In addition to that exercise secret book, I also gave him 100,000 gold coins, a box of jewelry and jade, and a storage ring, but all these things are not worth one ten-thousandth of that exercise." ”
After Qin Qin finished speaking, the eyes of everyone in the hall were full of anger, and they all wanted to teach Qin Qin a hard lesson.
"Loser!" the white-haired old man's trembling lips and teeth only squeezed out these three words full of hatred.
Qin Qin smiled lightly and swept over the more than ten people in front of him, and then said, "If you think those things should be yours, you can send someone to find him now to come back." ”
After saying this, Qin Qin turned around and walked outside the main hall.
"Stop. Madame Shuang finally came back to her senses from the shock, dodged in front of Qin Qin, and said coldly: "Since you have confessed your guilt, then accept the family law here." ”
"You don't have the qualifications. Qin Qin glanced up at Madame Frost and was about to bypass her.
"You ......"
Madame Frost raised her hand and grabbed Qin Qin's shoulder, with the strength of Madame Frost's fifth-level martial king, she could naturally easily catch Qin Qin, but this time she grabbed it empty, and Qin Qin's figure disappeared before Madame Shuang could touch it.
Before Madame Frost could understand what was going on, a neat and respectful voice sounded in the hall: "Meet the old ancestor!"
More than a dozen people who were still angry before all knelt down and saluted to a silver-haired old woman who suddenly appeared beside Qin Qin, and the murderous hall before suddenly calmed down.
"Get up. The old man waved his sleeves lightly, and then led Qin Qin out.
More than ten people could only watch Qin Qin, who had 'committed a serious crime', leave without guilt.
"Alas!" It wasn't until Qin Qin and the silver-haired old man's figures left their field of vision that everyone sighed deeply in their hearts.
"What now?" Lady Frost was the first to break the silence of the main hall.
"What should I do?" the white-haired old man thought for a while, and said helplessly: "We can only go to the person who received the gift ourselves, and we must ask for the things back." ”
"But the world is so big, where can I find it?"
"South, according to what Yajing said, that kid must still be in a city in the south. ”
"I'm going to arrange for manpower. As she spoke, Madame Frost raised her feet and wanted to walk outside the hall. "Even if you kill that kid, you must take the things back, otherwise the exercises will be leaked, and it will damage the reputation of my Qin family. ”
For Madame Frost's last sentence, everyone in the palace nodded in unison.
On a high platform not far from the main hall, Qin Qin was in a good mood to enjoy the scenery in the city, and what happened just now did not affect her mood at all, but the silver-haired old woman beside her was quite concerned.
"Can you let them go to that kid you like?"
"Of course. Qin Qin nodded as a matter of course, and said lightly: "If he can't keep those things, then he can only blame himself, whether the path I pointed out to him can go on depends on his own ability." ”
The old woman sighed lightly, and said: "In this case, why didn't you bring him back with you in the first place, and you taught him personally, isn't it more ......?"
Qin Qin interrupted the old woman with a slight smile, looked at the main hall and said, "Why are you not stopping these heirs of yours, they may die." ”
The old woman sighed weakly, looked down at Qin Qin, and said, "Although I don't want to see someone die in vain, but this is what you mean, I ...... Don't dare to stop it. ”
