"Master, most of the clansmen of the alliance have already crossed the outer mountain and started digging and building a city in the gentle area at the foot of the mountain. When all things recover, we will crusade against the territory of the Xuanyuan Division. It's just that...... Ignorance...... How did the master arrange the matter of Uncle Shi?" Jiang Shinian said with some hesitation.

At this time, Lao Li was lying on his side on the soft collapse, playing with a swarthy stone in his hand, which looked the same as the piece of black iron that cast the Xuanyuan Sword.

Hearing Jiang Shinian's words, Lao Li stopped what he was doing and threw the stone to his apprentice. Then you changed to a more comfortable position and lay down, and said softly: "Your uncle sent someone to send it, saying that it was for you to understand." ”

Then he didn't pay attention to Jiang Shinian anymore, and just closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Jiang Shinian held the black stone that still had residual warmth, a little at a loss, and stood awkwardly in front of the soft collapse, not knowing whether to continue to wait for the master to tell something, or leave immediately.

At this time, Lao Li said softly: "When will you have any feelings, when will you come and tell me." Also, this thing is valuable, don't lose it, or you will break your legs. ”

Jiang Shinian turned around and was about to leave in frustration, and Lao Li's voice came from behind him again: "By the way, your uncle also said that he was very busy during this time, so he won't come to see you, as for you two brothers, be careful when you fight, it is not easy to treat injuries, and it is easy to cheapen others." Okay, I've told you everything I need to say, get out, don't disturb my rest. ”

Jiang Shinian was stunned when he heard this, he never thought that his uncle would spread such a word. What does this mean? Be careful when fighting, it is difficult to treat injuries? Where does this refer to a battle between two evenly matched tribal alliances, it clearly means that two juniors are fighting. However, he also understood what Uncle Shi meant, no matter how much the brothers fight, they are still brothers, as long as they don't go too far, their elders will not intervene, and the most important thing is not to let outsiders benefit.

After thinking about this, Jiang Shinian shook his head and walked out of the house with a wry smile.

At this time, someone under his command came to report, and the poor Qi of the Jiuli tribe came to ask for a meeting. Jiang Shinian was a little strange, the people from Jiuli were all Li Feng before, why did they suddenly change to Qiqi?

He knew that Qi Qi was a person, he used to have a very high status in the country of Youxiong, and later he was driven out by Shaodian for the victim, but he didn't expect to be favored by Shen Gongke in Jiuli, and since then it has been smooth sailing in Jiuli. It is said that this person is extremely good at mental arts, and he is the most powerful at figuring out people's hearts.

Jiang Shinian hesitated a little before agreeing to meet.

In a remote valley far from the camp, Qi Qi took a team of Jiuli guards and waited for Jiang Shinian's arrival.

Not long after, Jiang Shinian walked into Xiaogu with several principals in the clan and came to Qiqi.

I've heard of this person for a long time, but I was a little surprised when I really saw it. Qi Qi has a fair complexion, straight eyes, and a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, no matter how he looks at it, he is a young talent who is square.

But when Jiang Shinian approached him, he found that the aura on this person's body was extremely cold, and there was a little bit of violence in it.

When Jiang Shinian looked at Qi Qi, Qi Qi was also looking at him, and he was secretly surprised in his heart, this little guy of the nephew's generation was not low in cultivation, and the calmness on his body perfectly covered up the fiery anger. Qi Qi believed that if they were a little careless in this conversation, Jiang Shinian would definitely be the first to make a move, and he would do it with all his might.

The two sides talked a lot of nonsense when they met, and then they got to the point.

As Chi You said, after Qi Qi explained his intentions, the Yan side was really surprised, and wanted to send someone to worship instead. Qi Qi also agreed to this matter half-pushing, and repeatedly complained about how unstable Jiuli's current situation was, and could even express his position on behalf of Chi You, if Emperor Yan was interested, they could immediately vassalize the Yan Department.

If Ding Cong hadn't asked Lao Li to send a message to Jiang Shinian, the current situation would definitely be what Jiang Shinian was willing to see, but now there were doubts in his heart. It is not only the current situation of the Jiuli clan, but the attitude shown by Qi Qi is too sincere, it is simply that Yan Bu thinks about Jiu Li, and before he can open his mouth to ask, Qi Qi immediately said that things are developing in this direction.

The Yan adults who came with Jiang Shinian, after hearing Qi Qi's humble story, they all smiled, as if the Jiuli clan was already a subordinate group of the Yan tribe.

Jiang Shinian listened expressionlessly from beginning to end, neither speaking nor nodding, all the conversations were basically completed by Xingtian, just like everything had nothing to do with him now. In fact, he had been silently calculating the pros and cons of different situations in his heart, and it was not until he returned to the camp and sat in the council chamber that he spoke for the first time.

"You have all heard what Qi Qi said, do you think that the Jiuli clan is not here to break the contract this time, but rather to surrender to Cheng?" Jiang Shinian's indifferent and calm voice echoed in the conference hall and fell into the ears of everyone present.

Everyone heard the question in Emperor Yan's words, but they didn't understand what Emperor Yan was worried about.

Zhu Rong took over the topic at this time and expressed his opinion: "Emperor Huiyan, this person has heard of this person in the middle, and he is good at demagoguery, what he said today is what we want to hear, and we really can't take it seriously." I think it's better to send someone to check on the internal situation of the Jiuli tribe as soon as possible. ”

Since someone took the lead, everyone's words came alive, and basically as Zhu Rong said, they agreed to send someone to investigate in the name of worship.

Only Xingtian was silent, and he didn't express his opinion after everyone finished speaking.

Jiang Shinian glanced at Xingtian until he had his own thoughts, since he didn't say it in front of everyone, he was afraid that something would be inappropriate. However, it is indeed necessary to send people to investigate, and Jiang Shinian also intends to do the same, but his idea is to send two groups of people, one in the light and one in the dark, so that the news can be convincing.

From this point of view alone, Jiang Shinian's way of thinking is different from that of others, and he pays more attention to verifying the authenticity of things, which can be said to be the same as Xuanyuan and Chiyou, and they are all apprentices brought out by the traverser.

The matter was settled in this way, a group of people led by Xingtian went to worship on behalf of Emperor Yan, followed Qiqi towards the Jiuli tribe, and the other group of people also quietly disappeared into the camp at night.

The person who led the team to act in secret this time was Jiang Shinian's cronies and disciples, Yanju. In Jiang Shinian's opinion, there will be no real situation on the surface of the Jiuli Clan, only the group of people who are acting secretly may find out something, but it is too risky to act secretly, so they sent Yanju there.

When Yanju was young, he was rescued by Jiang Shinian, a young man who practiced with his master, and since then he has voluntarily followed and become Jiang Shinian's servant. For this servant, although Jiang Shinian has said many times that there is no need for this, Yanju just followed without abandoning, and in the end, Jiang Shinian could only admit it. In his spare time, Jiang Shinian was also a teenager and taught him some methods of cultivation, but he didn't expect that Yanju had a very high understanding of cultivation, and many skills were even more accessible.

Once Jiang Shinian taught him how to turn fire into fire, and then went to practice his own schoolwork and let him practice alone, but he not only turned into flames, but also turned his anger into sharp blades. This scene happened to be seen by Lao Li who was passing by, and he didn't pay much attention to it at first, but he thought that Jiang Shinian was teaching, but when he asked his apprentice, he learned that what he taught was simple anger and fire. Although Lao Li was a little surprised by Yan Ju's comprehension at that time, his exercises didn't pay much attention to comprehension, so he didn't care too much.

Later, when I chatted with Ding Cong about this matter, who knew that the speaker had no intention of listening. Ding Cong heard that he was interested in it later, and secretly went to see Yanju, and after paying attention to it for a while, he came to the conclusion that this son was angry and condescending.

Lao Li was very annoyed when he heard this, and he almost fought with Ding Cong. In order to get out of this evil breath in his heart, Lao Li secretly instructed Yanju while teaching Jiang Shinian.

At this point, Yanju's cultivation has made rapid progress, although he is not born with fire, but Yanju's mind is lively, and he is very wonderful in the changes of flames, and sometimes even Lao Li is amazed.

This secret investigation is too dangerous, Yan Ju's cultivation is not low, and he is clever, so Jiang Shinian can rest assured that he will lead the team.

Xuanyuan has been in the council hall for more than ten days, mobilizing all the forces in the alliance to garrison Qiulin, and must resist the Jiuli clan in Qiulin.

Xuanyuan's deployment arrangement made everyone scratch their heads, the Yanbu in the northwest direction had already crossed the outer mountain, but all the forces of the alliance were used to defend the Jiuli tribe, and there was no defense in the northwest direction? It was equivalent to opening the city gate, putting down the drawbridge, and shouting outside: "Come in, we have no armed forces." ”

Xuanyuan didn't explain anything, but Ding Cong was very satisfied with this deployment and didn't go to the council hall again.

During this period, Wei He woke up a few times, but his soul power was seriously consumed, and he couldn't recover for a while, and Ding Cong was not in a hurry to know the movements of the Jiuli clan. I just found a lot of herbs and started grinding and concocting potions. This process was seen by Ning Er, who often visited the door, and felt that it was novel, so she learned it.

Ning Er's learning method was much simpler than Jiang Shi Nian's, and Ding Cong directly condensed the knowledge of herbal medicine into memory particles and punched Ning Er into the sea of knowledge. He didn't want a girl to go to the valleys and cliffs every day to look for herbs, and take the risk of trying the medicinal properties herself.

But Ding Cong didn't know much about women, especially a young girl like Ning Er, who was curious and loved to explore. His intentions were good, but it backfired, after Ning'er got a lot of knowledge, he was so excited that he didn't pay attention to Ding Cong's dissuasion, and ran to the valley and cliffs every day to look for magical herbs.

Ding Cong had no choice but to retreat, since the dissuasion was ineffective, then teach her some ways to climb to save her life. But after all, he was not very relieved, and he took great pains to refine a batch of life-saving magic weapons and gave them to Ning Er.

At this time, Wei He had already improved, and watching the master refine those life-saving magic weapons for Ning Er, there was a jealousy in his heart. Every time after refining in the master, he would run over and whisper in Ding Cong's ear how difficult it was for him, not only was he chased and killed, but he also had no means to escape......

Ding Cong was really afraid that he would continue to nag, so he had to refine an extra batch of magic weapons and give them to Wei He. At the same time, he reprimanded him for not practicing hard, and always thinking of being lazy by relying on utensils.

Since Wei He learned the advanced modern way of thinking as a teacher, the thickness of his face is also improving day by day, since he has been cheap, of course, he must obediently obey the reprimand.

After Wei He was completely restored, he told Ding Cong the news of the Jiuli clan, and told him in detail about going to see Lao Li. When Ding Cong knew that his words had been brought to Lao Li, he breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't care about the news that Wei He said before, and the news of Shen Gongke's death was even more nonsense in his opinion.

Xuanyuan went several times after Wei He recovered, but Ding Cong did not say anything new about the deployment plan, so he continued to implement it according to his own arrangement. It's just that every time he leaves, Ding Cong has to arrange a new learning task for him, so that he can become familiar with the characteristics and swordsmanship of the Xuanyuan Sword as soon as possible.

In the end, after Xuanyuan arranged a complete deployment, he forced him to practice his sword every night, and once he practiced, he stayed all night. For cultivators, staying up late is not a big deal, but for a leader who is busy with government affairs every day, staying up late is cruel torture.

Fortunately, Xuanyuan was determined and did not give up easily. After persisting in dancing the sword under the moon for four months, he finally reached the level required by Ding Cong, and could cut off the branches on the stones thirty meters away without hurting the stones.

The next practice returned to the point of relaxation, Ding Cong made a plan, and Xuanyuan followed it, and so on until the end of winter.

Chi You sat in front of the soft collapse, looking at the face of the woman on the bed, her not very outstanding face but bright and charming because of her heavy pupils. It's just that at this time, there was an abnormal paleness on the slightly dark cheeks, and the eyes were a little sluggish.

Chi You didn't speak, just sat quietly on the side, one big hand holding the somewhat thin palm. The soft moonlight entered the room through the window, falling on the tall body, and there was a hint of fluttering. The body trembled softly in the moonlight, there was no sound inside the house, no sound outside the house, no sound in the whole city. Everyone knows that Chiyou's favorite woman is leaving him tonight.

The sloppy eyes regained a trace of clarity at some point, and when he saw the gently trembling body, the thin palm was withdrawn from the big hand, and he gently patted the owner of the body. It's still the usual position, the same rhythm, but this time it's a little hard to shoot. Shuangyue didn't speak, she wanted to speak, she wanted to say a lot to Chiyou who was trembling her body, but now there was no word to stop the silent trembling.

The crooked smiling eyes appeared in front of Chiyou for the last time, and then forever.

For a long time, there was not a sound in the silent night.

At dawn, the hustle and bustle of the city resumed, and Chiyou slowly entered from outside the city.

When the clansmen saw Chiyou, the noise disappeared again, replaced by the sound of kneeling on the ground. Chi You didn't look at these clansmen, and walked into the council hall as if he was walking as usual.

Dawn and several deacons in the clan stood up respectfully and saluted, and then quietly listened to the orders.

"Are they gone?" Chi You's voice was still as deep as that, without a single fluctuation.

After hearing this, Liming replied, "I left yesterday at noon, and the chief was in that room at that time, and his subordinates did not report on the matter. ”

Chi You didn't say anything more, just looked at Liming silently, his eyes were a little cold. The temperature in the house also dropped instantly.

Dawn was sweating profusely and didn't dare to look up at Chiyou.

After a long time, Chi You said coldly: "She is a lady, only she is a lady, I don't want to hear any other titles." ”
