Chapter 39: Unspeakable Words
"In the formation drawings you gave last time, all the materials you need have been found, if you are not at ease, you can check it." Qiu Sixian raised his finger and pointed to the storage bag on the table.
"No need." Qin Zhen waved her hand.
Hearing this, Qiu Sixian smiled inexplicably: "Really? I thought Qin Daoyou was a very cautious person. ”
"Caution is in the face of the enemy, but we are partners now. I guess trust between us is more important, isn't it? Qin Zhen smiled back.
"That's nature." Qiu Sixian poured a cup of tea for Qin Zhen and handed it to Qin Zhen, "I didn't prepare wine here, so I replaced it with tea, and I wish our future cooperation will be smooth." ”
He pronounced the last words softly, but very clearly.
Qin Zhen took the tea and took a sip slightly.
Qiu Sixian observed Qin Zhen's expression, and suddenly asked, "Is there anything bothering Qin Daoyou?" ”
Qin Zhen put down the teacup and paused with her hand, and raised her eyes to look at Qiu Sixian: "Why did Qiu Daoyou say this?" ”
"The corners of the mouth." Qiu Sixian pointed to his face, "When Qin Daoyou came last time, the muscles here were very relaxed, but this time, they were tense. ”
"It's just a small thing, and it won't affect our actions." Qin Hao didn't say anything more.
Does that mean he should not be nosy? Qiu Sixian smiled in his heart, and did not mention this matter again, but put the jade in his hand on the table.
The jade jumped lightly a few times, and a complete map of Yangping City emerged, with every building on it clearly visible, and even the name of each building and street could be displayed when clicked.
Qin Zhen opened the street marked "Huhe Lane", and the map changed to a map of Huhe Lane centered on the ancient monument in an instant. At the same time, a small piece of space was vacated, which read:
"Huhe Lane, one of the residences of the low-level monks of Yangping City, eight of them became monks under the Xingzhou Branch of the Six Dao Alliance, and the rest came from other sects. There were a total of 170 monks, with the highest cultivation being in the late foundation period, with four of them. ”
Qin Zhen looked at Qiu Sixian, who had a frank look in his eyes, and said meaningfully: "With Qiu Daoyou's ability, don't worry about the lack of people to cooperate." ”
"It's all a little trick that doesn't fit into the stream, how can it be put on the table." Qiu Sixian sighed deeply, "It's not like you can only count on boarding the big ship of the Qin Sect Master to get on the Six Dao Alliance in a bright way. ”
"Hmph, it's still bright, and I'll have to hide it secretly at night." Cao Lingyan lifted the curtain of the door, walked in with a bunch of scrolls in one hand, and threw them on the table angrily.
Qiu Sixian didn't know where to take out a small fan, opened it with a "snap" to block his face, and said in an exaggerated tone: "I'm working hard for our little family, how can you ...... it?"
Before he finished his words, Cao Lingyan raised his hand and hammered it down on top of his head: "Don't be flamboyant!" ”
Seeing Qiu Sixian covering his head and squatting in the corner pretending to be aggrieved, Cao Lingyan snorted coldly and sat in his previous position: "When does Qin Daoyou plan to act?" ”
"If you don't have any problems, let's start tonight." Qin Zhen said.
"Tonight?" Cao Lingyan frowned, "Now that Yangping City is investigating very strictly, I'm afraid it won't be easy to act in the near future." ”
"It's been so long, and what Qianyuanzong should have solved has already been solved, but now it's just an attitude to make an attitude, and the investigation is very strict on the surface. Moreover, in this period, even if something happens, the Qianyuan Sect can only choose to hide it, otherwise it will be questioned by the forces of other states and other sects in Xingzhou, which will affect its position as the number one sect in Xingzhou. Qin Zhen analyzed with her little by little.
“…… Good. Cao Lingyan raised his head, his eyes turned around on Qin Zhen's face, and then he said slowly.
"Now that we've decided to act tonight, we're almost ready to start making preparations now." Qiu Sixian walked over, "Is there any other friends on our side who want to be with Ling Yan and Qin Daoyou?" ”
Qin Zhen shook his head: "That's it." As long as we don't get discovered, the three of us are enough. ”
Qiu Sixian shrugged: "No problem, it's all up to Qin Daoyou." ”
"For the sake of fairness, Xingzhou's moat formation allocates the maintenance area according to the actual size of each sect." Qin Zhen clicked on the southwest side of the map, "When our Tianyi Sect was at its peak in the past, it was assigned to the mountains southwest of Yangping City, where the terrain was complex and there were often demon beasts, and it took a lot of money to maintain the formation for many years. Although it is no longer brilliant now, the maintenance of that formation is still under the name of our Tianyi Sect. ”
"Sounds like a burden to the old glory?" Qiu Sixian quipped, "The cost of maintaining the city protection formation is not something that any sect can support. ”
Qin Hao kept smiling, and didn't respond to Qiu Sixian's words: "This is a great advantage for our current plan, opening up the gap of the city protection formation in this area, connecting the internal and external teleportation arrays, in addition to guarding against a little demon beast, there is no need to worry more." After all, there are very few other people in that place. ”
"I have a question." Cao Lingyan stared at Qin Hao intently, "This is the area that your Tianyi Sect is responsible for, if something is found to be wrong, isn't it your responsibility that will be investigated first?" How can you be so generous to joke about the reputation of your own sect. ”
"Cao Daoyou," Qin Zhen said in a warm voice, "Everyone knows that with the current situation of our sect, it is not enough to support the city protection formation, and even if there is any omission at that time, it can't really be blamed on me." Moreover, as you said, I can't joke about the prestige of my sect, so I'm the one who won't be suspected the most. ”
Cao Lingyan wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Qiu Sixian: "Okay, then when does Qin Daoyou plan to start acting?" ”
"Start preparing now, and see you at the entrance of the alley in an hour." Qin Zhen glanced at the sky outside.
"Okay." Qiu Sixian nodded, and while holding down Cao Lingyan, who was a little annoyed, "If there is anything, we will talk about it slowly later." ”
When Qin Zhen went out, Qiu Sixian squatted down and explained carefully to Cao Lingyan, who was sitting in the chair: "Isn't this a win-win situation for us? She is different from those big sects, she needs to take risks to earn this money, and we can rest assured that we can cooperate with her, and we are not afraid that she will sell us behind her back like those big sects. ”
"However, the meaning of her words is clearly that when something happens, she will push us out and take the blame!" Cao Lingyan said angrily. The thing was done by them together, so when it was exposed, they would not suspect Qin Hao, and who else could they suspect, wouldn't they be the only ones.
"Okay, okay, I'm." Qiu Sixian gently patted her back and breathed, "Isn't this human nature?" She is not familiar with us, and she has no friendship, isn't it normal to choose Mingzhe to protect herself? Besides, she can do this, and can't we? Haven't we been used to running away for so long? ”
"But...... You said before that you wanted to stay in Xingzhou for a long time. Cao Lingyan looked at Qiu Sixian, and his voice gradually lowered, "It's hard to settle down, I don't want to destroy everything that is beautiful now because of unstable factors." ”
"......" Qiu Sixian was silent.
For a long time, he said softly to Cao Lingyan's tearful eyes: "Lingyan, believe me." I promise that this will end safely, okay? ”
Cao Lingyan wiped away his tears with his backhand, gritted his teeth, and kicked Qiu Sixian: "I shouldn't have saved you in the first place!" Let you die there and forget it! ”
After speaking, he left the room angrily, leaving Qiu Sixian helplessly on the ground.
After Qin Zhen left the weapons shop, he rushed to Qianyuanzong.
After such a long time, she also calmed down, realizing that she was too emotional just now, so she left Ye Yousheng in Qianyuanzong.
But things have happened, and it is useless to regret them, and now we can only try our best to make up for it and not let the rift get bigger and bigger.
While rushing to Qianyuanzong, she thought about how to explain the real reason for his poison to Ye Yousheng.
Do you want to be direct and say that it is your own fault? But this is not foreshadowing, what if Ah Sheng can't forgive her? But what if you put it mildly? In any case, this series of events is the beginning of her, and no matter how tactful she is, she can't avoid her source.
Qin Zhen rubbed her temples irritably, it was rare that she would be annoyed because she didn't know how to organize words.
In the process of such entanglement, she had already come to the medical hall unimpeded with the sect master token.
Tang Yan and Ye Yousheng had just agreed to go to the Imperial Fire Gate and had already left. Ye Yousheng still maintained the posture of leaning on the bed, and was struggling to move his wrist to get the communication jade handle in his arms, when he saw Qin Zhen coming in, he stopped his movements and said excitedly: "Senior sister, you are back!" I was trying to contact you! ”
The fact that the senior sister came back so soon does it mean that the senior sister is not disappointed in him, and the senior sister actually believes that he can do things.
He watched Qin Zhen walk to his bed step by step, but he didn't sit down, just looked at him with a complicated expression, so he said eagerly: "Senior sister, I already know where I did wrong. I will never make such a basic mistake again in the future, and I will ...... I won't always have to go out with you anymore, I will try to stay in the sect to cultivate. I won't disgrace you and Tianyi again. ”
Qin Hao's words froze in her throat just as she was about to speak, her fingertips trembled, and her lips squirmed for a long time, but she still couldn't say what she had thought of.
She reached out and stroked the top of Ye Yousheng's head, and in the latter's joyful expression, she gently ran his hair one by one. The soft strands of hair passed through her fingers, but they were as hard as sharp knives, piercing her heart and making her almost numb in pain.
"Ah Sheng...... It's me who is sorry for you. She spoke up anyway.
Ye Yousheng looked at her puzzled: "What is Senior Sister talking about?" ”
“…… Ah Sheng, Senior Sister has something to go out to do in an hour, if you feel that your health is okay, do you want to go with Senior Sister? Qin Zhen took a deep breath, but after all, she still couldn't finish her words, so she could only change the topic in embarrassment.
"Of course I'm going!" Ye Yousheng didn't think twice.
In order not to make Qin Hao regret it, he tried to move his arm and showed Qin Hao: "I can almost move normally now, let alone an hour, I can recover in half an hour." ”
"Good ......" Qin Zhen turned her head away from looking at his eyes full of joy.
It's better to wait for the time to be ripe, and then explain it to Ah Sheng.
