After Qi Jian returned to his room, Zhu Yan immediately came up and asked, "How is it?"

Qi Jian made a "no problem" gesture to Zhu Yan, and said with a smile: "If the master personally goes out to do something, there is nothing that can't be done." ”

This time, Zhu Yan surprisingly did not "sarcastically" say two sentences to him, but looked at him with grateful eyes and said, "Thank you, Brother Qi." For my sake, you have to leave your homeland and accompany me to an unknown and dangerous place. I really don't know how to repay you in the future. ”

"It's very simple, didn't I say it before?" Qi Jian's face once again showed his trademark evil smile.

Zhu Yan's cheeks were slightly flushed at this time, and he said softly: "After I get my memory back, I will tell you my past completely, if at that time, you can still accept my words, I will marry Brother Qi and be your wife, okay?"

When Qi Jian heard this, he immediately waved his hand and said, "I'm just joking with you, how can you take it seriously, do you think I look like the kind of prodigal who likes to take advantage of others?"

Zhu Yan chuckled and said, "I think you look like you, just now I just wanted to scare you, I saw that it scared you, could it be that Brother Qi really wants to marry me?"

"Xiao Yan, you are so beautiful, you don't want to say that you don't want it at all, it must be a lie. But listening to your tone just now, what 'you can still accept my words at that time', do you think that you have done something unseemly in the past?" Qi Jian teased.

"This is not necessarily, you may have what you are most afraid of, now see if you dare to marry me?"

"Xiaosheng didn't dare, and he won't dare again. ”

The laughter between a man and a fox echoed in the house, but strangely there was no sound outside.

Qi Yunfei explained his son's intentions to his wife that night, and at first she said that she didn't agree to anything, and the husband and wife almost quarreled.

Two days later, after his wife's mood stabilized, Qi Yunfei once again clarified his son's wishes to her, understood her reason, and hoped that she could respect Qi Jian's own decision.

After a lot of tongue-in-cheek use, the wife finally agreed. Qi Yunfei told Qi Jian the good news, and Qi Jian was overjoyed, knowing that he had finally ushered in the opportunity to see the vast world.

The seven-day period soon came, and Qi Jian went to the council hall to say goodbye to his parents, who had been waiting for him for a long time.

When I came to the door of the council room, I found that my parents were already standing outside the door. Qi Jian hurriedly greeted him, and after kneeling respectfully to his parents, he stood up and said, "The child is going to go out today, and I have come to bid farewell to my father and mother." ”

Qi Yunfei nodded to Qi Jian and said, "Your mother has a lot to say to you, you can talk to her." ”

After that, Qi Jian's mother began to give him a "long" admonition. One by one, the instructions can be said to be comprehensive, from "do not sleep in the wild" to "do not go to the deep mountains and old forests where there are many wild animals" to "do not associate with strangers at will", nothing is missing.

Qi Jian was in a cold sweat when he heard this, and finally waited until she finished nagging, and said busily: "Mother, you don't have to worry, I will try my best to do what you tell me." However, the child's trip this time, after all, is to experience, not to travel, and it is inevitable that there will be some trouble, but I will definitely adapt to the situation and not take any risks. There is a way that the body is skinned, and I will never deliberately hurt my body, please believe me. ”

Qi Jian's mother bowed her head and said: "My mother naturally believes in you, but you are still young and inexperienced, if you don't tell you this, your mother will definitely not be at ease." ”

"The child will remember his mother's teachings. Qi Jian said.

"That's fine, your father has something to give you, see if you like it or not. Qi Jian's mother said with a smile, her eyes full of love.

Qi Jian was infected by his mother's gaze, his eyes were unconsciously a little moist, and his emotions became a little chaotic. Before talking to his father, Qi Jian adjusted his mentality slightly, temporarily suppressing the sadness surging in his heart.

"Father, mother just said that you have something to give me, let me see what it is?" Qi Jian pretended to be excited.

Qi Yunfei picked up a medium-sized wooden box from the ground behind him and said to Qi Jian: "There is nothing new either, just some coiled clothes and a few changes of clothes, that's all." ”

Qi Jian opened the wooden box and looked inside, and what caught his eye was simple but practical things. Nearly two hundred taels of broken silver were packed in a huge money bag, and several brand-new clothes woven from the finest fabrics were neatly stacked on top of each other, and at a glance it was clear that they had been made by my mother herself in the past few days. There is also an amulet made of glass, which shimmers magnificently in the sunlight.

Qi Jian looked at the luggage that his parents had carefully prepared for him, and there was a warm current in his heart, and that incomparably warm feeling made him feel the selfless love of his parents.

"Father, mother, you have always cared for me selflessly, and the child cannot repay it. This time I went out to practice, and the child will definitely complete the transformation, become a person who can take charge of himself, and return safely, and will never disappoint the high hopes you have placed on me. Qi Jian said word by word, his tone full of confidence.

Qi Yunfei laughed and said approvingly: "Well said, worthy of being my son, it's not too early, you can go." ”

Qi Jian nodded, took out the amulet and money bag in the wooden box, put them close to his body, and tied the wooden box behind him with the straw rope that his father had prepared for him in advance.

Then Qi Yunfei pulled out a snow-white thousand-mile horse for Qi Jian from the stable, and said to Qi Jian: "From today on, it is your mount, it is called Feixue, it can be said to be an extremely rare breed among thousands of horses, and you can travel 1,200 miles a day without feeling tired, and you can almost run 2,000 miles a day at the earliest." After that, it's in your care. ”

"Thank you father for this good horse, the child will definitely be taken care of. Qi Jian hurriedly thanked his father.

"Let's get on the horse and go. Qi Yunfei said this sentence that officially symbolized parting.

Qi Jian hugged his father and mother one by one and then turned over on the horse, he was specially trained by his father to ride horses when he was a teenager, he is very familiar with horseback riding, and all the movements on horseback are mastered.

"Father, mother, and child have departed. You must take good care of your health, and it won't be long before the baby returns. When he said this, Qi Jian's voice seemed a little choked.

Qi Jian's mother suddenly asked at this time: "Jian'er, have you brought the map? If you get lost at that time, it will be troublesome." ”

Qi Jian replied: "Naturally, the child will not forget this kind of thing, and the mother does not have to worry." ”

"Take care and come back soon. Qi Jian's mother said the eight words of farewell with difficulty in a voice that was a little choked up than her son.

"Definitely, father, mother, you also have to take care of your health, the child is leaving!"

With that, he rode his horse in the direction of the north gate. Qi Jian immediately looked back at his parents, only to find that his mother's eyes were full of tears. Qi Jian's heart was full of guilt at this moment, and he said: "If my mother knows that I am going to Nanbu Continent, I will definitely not be able to stand the blow, I hope my father can keep it a good secret for me, and don't let my mother find any clues." ”

Looking at her son's back gradually moving away, Qi Jian's mother raised her hand to wipe the tears that were about to fall from the corners of her eyes, and said in a worried tone: "Beiju Luzhou is extremely far away from here, and I don't know when my son will come back, and whether he will encounter danger on the way." ”

Hearing this, Qi Yunfei's heart trembled, and he said: "This is the first time in my life that I have deceived her, and it is also a big scam for the north-south exchange." It seems that when inspecting her son's location and movements in the future, she must be careful not to be discovered by her. If I let her know that I would lie to her, then the family will probably never be at peace. ”

Although there seemed to be turbulent waves in his heart, Qi Yunfei still said very calmly: "It's not that you don't know Feixue's foot strength, the road is indeed relatively far, but in fact, it won't take more than a month to go back and forth." ”

Qi Jian's mother bowed her head in agreement, and then separated from Qi Yunfei and went back to the room alone.

After Qi Jian rode out of the north gate, he deliberately made a big circle before turning to the place outside the south gate, which was not only the place where he practiced on weekdays, but also the place where he met Zhu Yan for the first time. After entering the clearing in the middle of the woods, Qi Jian found Zhu Yan's beautiful shadow.

She was now sitting alone on the grass, boredly teasing the birds of the forest with a dead branch. Seeing Qi Jian arriving on horseback, he threw down the branch in his hand, jumped up with a "rub", and complained in his mouth: "What are you doing? If you come any later, I'm afraid I'll fall asleep. ”

Qi Jian smiled and said, "Although you like to sleep, it is not because you are lazy, but because sleeping is a more effective way for your White Fox Clan to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, I guessed correctly." ”

"It's close, but instead of sleeping, we're meditating. Meditation instead of sleep allows for more effective practice. Zhu Yan explained.

Qi Jian bowed his head and said, "This is very similar to the state of 'entering concentration' when we practice the mental method. ”

"It's just the same behavior, but the words are different. By the way, you haven't told me why it's been delayed for so long?" Zhu Yan said angrily.

Qi Jian spread his hands and said, "There is no special reason, it's just that my mother likes to nag more, so she delayed a little time." Xiao Yan won't mind because of this, right. ”

Zhu Yan didn't answer Qi Jian's question at this time, but frowned, and said to Qi Jian in a vigilant tone: "Brother Qi, you seem to have the aura of tracking magic circles on your body. ”

"What tracking circle? Xiao Yan, don't scare me. Qi Jian couldn't help but be startled by Zhu Yan's abrupt words.
