When Chai Jinyan and Su Qinghai walked into the house, Xiao An hurriedly got up and stood aside, silent.

Du Zhiyun also stood up, frowning slightly when he looked at the two: "What's the matter with the two of you?"

Chai Jinyan glared at Su Qinghai, and just wanted to speak, Su Qinghai on the side coughed lightly, interrupting Chai Jinyan's movements.

Then Su Qinghai took a small step forward and bowed to Du Zhiyun: "Senior Brother Du, since the assassination of Senior Brother Chai last month, there has been a group of bandits outside the Fang City, and this group of bandits often wanders outside the Fang City, so scared that the surrounding monks dare not come to our Fang City. ”

"In the past few days, the business of Fang Market has been getting worse and worse, which has seriously affected the income of Fang City. I went to find Senior Brother Chai just now to discuss with him how to expel that gang of bandits. ”

"Unexpectedly, Senior Brother Chai used his own safety as an excuse to prevent Tian Yuankui and Wei Chun from helping me go out to expel the bandits. Senior Brother Chai's behavior of ignoring the interests of Fang City for his own benefit made me very angry, and I had to come to Senior Brother Du to reason about this matter. ”

Chai Jinyan was the second-in-command of Fang City, but he was squeezed by Su Qinghai on the spot, and the anger in his heart did not come to one place. After hearing that Su Qinghai gave himself a hat of "cowardly and selfish, damaging the interests of Fang City", he was even more angry with his forehead.

"When did Su Qinghai become so arrogant?" Xiao An on the side was also taken aback by Su Qinghai's actions.

Su Qinghai is a seventh-level Qi refining cultivator, while Chai Jinyan is an eighth-layer Qi refining monk, under normal circumstances, Su Qinghai must be courteous to the other party, you must know that the immortal cultivation world pursues the concept of "the strong are respected".

If a low-level cultivator slanders a high-level cultivator, and is caught red-handed, even if the slandered monk doesn't care, the other monks will severely punish the low-level cultivator because his behavior is challenging the rules of a circle.

Of course, if this low-level cultivator has a strong backer, then it will be another matter.

Su Qinghai still looked menacing before entering the room, but when he reported to Du Zhiyun, he was extremely calm, and his performance just now was like two people, and this control of his own mentality made Xiao An on the side secretly admire.

Surprised, Xiao An took a closer look at Su Qinghai, only to find that the other party's cultivation was already the eighth layer of qi refining, and now Xiao An understood why Su Qinghai dared to directly refute Chai Jinyan's face.

After seeing that Su Qinghai had become an eighth-layer Qi refining cultivator, Xiao Anxin could be described as having mixed tastes.

He and Su Qinghai were originally the same batch of monks who entered the sect, but Su Qinghai was a dual spirit root person, and his cultivation qualifications were far better than his own, and with his qualifications and early cultivation speed, he would have been able to enter the eighth layer of qi refining a long time ago. I heard that when this person was in the dark hall, he exchanged a powerful supernatural power exercise, but it was delayed until now.

He also cultivated the new exercises halfway, and he was several years earlier than Su Qinghai. But he is still in the middle of the seventh layer of qi refining, but the other party has already entered the eighth layer of qi refining, the spiritual root is different, Xiao Anxin was envious.

Although the cultivation speed of two monks with exactly the same number and type of spiritual roots will also be very different, under normal circumstances, the cultivation speed of a double spiritual root cultivator is obviously faster than that of the three spiritual roots.

After Chai Jinyan glared at Su Qinghai fiercely again, he also took a small step forward: "Senior Brother Du, it's because the bandits have been appearing outside Fang City,

I deliberately asked Tian Yuankui and Wei Chun to guard the warehouse. ”

"With my current injury, I have almost no hands. Moreover, the enemy is in the dark, and we are in the light, and if we send more men out, the strength to guard the treasury will not be enough. ”

"Although Senior Brother Du is also here in the treasury, the monk who assassinated me that day was a peak cultivator of the eighth layer of qi refining, which is the same as Senior Brother Du's cultivation. ”

"If this monk entangles Senior Brother Du, only two Qi Refining Seventh-Layer Cultivators will be able to break the protection of the treasury and rob the treasury. ”

As Chai Jinyan spoke, a hideous wound extending to the collarbone emerged from his collar, just over an inch away from his throat.

Although it has been a month since Chai Jinyan was assassinated, there is still no sign of healing from this wound.

It may be that Chai Jinyan's emotions were a little agitated just now, causing the wound to be affected, and subtle sword qi burst out from the wound, causing the healed wound to burst again.

Xiao An looked at this terrifying wound and was also taken aback in his heart. Look at it like this, Senior Brother Chai's life was picked up.

No wonder Chai Jinyan was frightened, and hurriedly arranged people around him. With Chai Jinyan's current state, a slight carelessness will cause the wound to burst out completely, and he can't do it at all.

Although Chai Jinyan was in the early stage of the eighth layer of qi refining, he had been at this stage for many years, and he was naturally extremely proficient in the use of supernatural powers. But he was seriously injured in a short period of time.

It is said that it was Du Zhiyun who appeared in time to scare the enemy away, otherwise Senior Brother Chai's life would have become someone else's.

Chai Jinyan and Su Qinghai saw Xiao An as soon as they entered the door, and both of them showed surprised expressions, after all, Xiao An had not appeared in Fang City for more than three months. It's just that both of them are now in a lawsuit, so it's inconvenient to greet Xiao An.

Tian Yuankui was the monk who came to Fang City with Du Zhiyun, and Wei Chun was one of the three monks who came to Fang City with Su Qinghai.

When Su Qinghai came to Qishifang City last year to deliver supplies, the three monks who traveled with Su Qinghai were: Wei Chun, Jiang Da, and Cao Yue, and these three monks were all at the seventh level of qi refining.

When the monthly allowance was distributed for the first time, Tian Yuankui and Zuo Yong were assigned to Su Qinghai, while Cao Yue was transferred to his own hands by Chai Jinyan, in the name of ensuring the safety of the treasury.

After the assassination last month, Chai Jinyan transferred Tian Yuankui and Wei Chun from Su Qinghai.

Now there is only one monk Jiang Da at the seventh level of qi refining and Zuo Yong at the fifth level of qi refining under Su Qinghai.

Now Zuo Yong guards the entrance of Fang City every day, and Jiang Da is in charge of the three fire houses rented out. And these three earth fire houses are not concentrated in one place, but scattered in three locations, and Su Qinghai simply does not have enough manpower to maintain order outside the city.

Originally, there were two ground fire houses in Qishifang City that were rented out, but when the Xu family and the Han family had accidents one after another, the two ground fire houses were also empty. Later, Du Zhiyun rented out the Xu family's fire house to the outside world, leaving only the Han family's fire house for his family's use.

After a pause, Chai Jinyan said again: "Senior Brother Su, I have also heard about the situation outside Fang City, and I can't wait to immediately arrest those bandits and bleed them one by one. But my injuries are not yet healed, and I have a lot of inconvenience, otherwise I would have gone out with you to maintain the safety outside the city. Or you

Wait a few more days, and we'll go together when I'm healed. ”

Chai Jinyan said to Su Qinghai while caressing the wound on his neck. Every time Senior Brother Chai stroked it, the wound that had just burst would heal a little, and after a few strokes, the wound would almost heal.

"Could it be that the incident of the burst wound just now was deliberately shown by Senior Brother Chai to sell it miserably?" Xiao An suddenly had a strange thought in his mind.

If this is the case, then Senior Brother Chai probably doesn't need the protection of others at all. Then his move to transfer Tian Yuankui and Wei Chun away was more like an intention to weaken Su Qinghai's power.

Xiao An remembered that when he was chatting with Zuo Yong at the entrance of Fang City just now, Zuo Yong vaguely mentioned that the atmosphere in Fang City was a little bad now. Combined with the situation in front of him, Xiao Anxin secretly speculated that it was because Su Qinghai was not satisfied with his current status after cultivation and wanted to pick Chai Jinyan off the horse?

But last year, when Fang City issued the moon for the first time, Chai Jinyan's arrangement to transfer Cao Yue away was also to weaken Su Qinghai's power, how to explain it? Is it simply to balance the forces in Fang City and prevent Su Qinghai's tail from being out of order, or have the two always had grievances?

Xiao An thought for a while, and then felt that he had a headache, fortunately these had nothing to do with him, otherwise it would be a real headache.

After Chai Jinyan finished speaking, he really stared at Su Qinghai, wanting Su Qinghai to express his position directly.

Unexpectedly, Su Qinghai ignored Chai Jinyan at all, as if he hadn't heard Chai Jinyan's words. just looked at Du Zhiyun quietly and waited for Du Zhiyun's reply.

"Most of the items in the warehouse are stored here by the sect, and we are just selling them on consignment. If there is really a mistake, not only will you and I not have the moon, but I am afraid that we will have to paste a lot of spirit stones upside down. As for the safety outside Fang City, Senior Brother Su can wait a few more days and go with Senior Brother Chai at that time. ”

"You can discuss the rest of the things yourself, I still have some things to do, and I need to go to the market to buy something. After Du Zhiyun saw the herbs provided by Xiao An, his mind drifted to alchemy. Although he was too lazy to pay attention to the dispute between Chai Jinyan and Su Qinghai for that little right to speak, Chai Jinyan was his own year, so he naturally didn't help his relatives.

After saying this, Du Zhiyun glanced at the two of them, then raised his legs and left here, making Xiao An, who stayed aside, a little embarrassed.

Su Qinghai was secretly so angry that he gritted his teeth, Chai Jinyan's injury just now was completely pretentious. This person was like this when he was injured a month ago, and now that a month has passed, is the injury not getting better at all?

But with such an obvious flaw, Du Zhiyun also chose to favor Chai Jinyan, which made Su Qinghai feel indignant.

After Du Zhiyun left, the atmosphere in the room immediately froze, and after a while, Su Qinghai flicked his sleeves and turned around to leave, without looking at Chai Jinyan.

When Su Qinghai turned around, he saw Xiao An on the side and suddenly stopped.

"Senior Brother Xiao, now that bandits are rampant outside Fang City, it has affected the interests of you and me, are you willing to go with me to pacify these bandits?"

"I'll go to Fang Market to buy some items first, and then we'll discuss the matter of going outside Fang City tomorrow. Su Qinghai didn't give Xiao An room to refuse at all, and after settling the matter strongly, he turned around and left here.

Xiao An touched his nose on the side, what did he think of himself, he was a little aggrieved today.
