When the original novel meets the hegemony of the fandom

Nothing to do, just close your eyes and rest.

Ao Qi finally noticed something was wrong with Qi Ao, he put his hands on Qi Ao's head, but unfortunately he couldn't see his eyes: "You, don't want to?"

Qi Ao finally laughed, with a little tiredness, and even the laughter quickly drifted away with the dense mist: "How long has this happened, and my mind is still in a mess." As he spoke, his His hand stroked Aoqi's lower abdomen, gradually descending.

There was a familiar touch between the legs, and then another fiery body pressed on top of him, Qi Ao was too lazy to remove the towel from his eyes, doing things he was already quite familiar with in the dark, relying on feeling and memory .The created darkness and the accumulation of a certain period of time made the end of this time much earlier than before, and the transpiration of the heat made his strength drain faster. In the end, he was only able to breathe, and was wrapped in a blanket by Ao Qi. Back on the bed, Qi Ao had already fallen asleep before his head touched the pillow.

Ao Qi looked at what was still in good spirits between his legs, he could only smile wryly in his heart, the two of them had worked hard all day today, he really didn't intend to, how could he think that Qi Ao would take the initiative to make such a move in order to change the topic One hand, other people can forget it, but it is Qi Ao, who can tease him to the extreme, and the culprit is already exhausted, so he can only solve the problem by himself and go to bed.Ao Qi made another note of Qi Ao in his heart, and at the same time held Qi Ao's hand.

When the sun has not yet risen, it is the coldest time of the day, Ao Qi has always been a light sleeper, but now he suddenly reaches out to grab Qi Ao's position, only to catch the cool morning breeze, He woke up almost instantly, but relaxed again in an instant.

Before dawn, there was only gray light outside the window, and a small lamp reflected Qi'ao's figure on the wall. Although he couldn't see clearly, Qi'ao's voice came from outside clearly: "You follow the above Yes, find out one by one."

After responding, the person left quickly, and Qi Ao didn't stay there any longer. After he blew out the lights, his footsteps gradually approached Ao Qi's direction.

Ao Qi was a little happy, but more angry, he pulled Qi Ao by the wrist and dragged him onto the bed, of course he noticed the power of control, but Qi Ao deliberately raised a smile and ouched twice: "You're just like that For me who worked hard?"

Ao Qi hugged Qi Ao tightly in his arms with his hands and feet, and buried his head in Qi Ao's shoulder. Hearing Qi Ao's words, he hugged Qi Ao even more tightly. It would not be comfortable to be hugged like this, but the tenderness in his arms Qi Ao's body showed a soft state, able to fit every inch of Ao Qi, like holding a puddle of water: "Last night..."

Qi Ao waited for a while but didn't get what he wanted to hear, he smiled and gently stroked Ao Qi's back: "Ao Qi, why did you choose to stay here?" We can obviously go, can't we?

Ao Qi was a little surprised, it seemed that he was born with the pursuit of the supreme power, Qi Ao didn't say anything when he seized the Shuanglong Chiyu Sword, when he said he wanted to be the leader of the martial arts, Qi Ao smiled and agreed, when he proposed to get the mother stone, Qi Ao O also just nodded, but now he asked such a question.

Before he could answer, Qi Ao quickly asked another question: "Do you want to fief the land and become the king?" This was one of the promises King Yuan Ma made.

Without the slightest hesitation, Ao Qi interrupted Qi Ao's conjecture: "Of course more than that."

"Oh?" This time Qi'ao's words showed a little relief and interest, he paused for a long time, and finally spoke again, "We have a very important bargaining chip, you have to forge the mother stone and the sword together as soon as possible .”

The breathing in his arms quickly became steady, the hands behind his back also stopped, Ao Qi's eyes stopped outside the window, he was thinking about some things, some things he thought he had sorted out two days ago.Both he and Qi'ao thought that his irritability and abnormality some time ago were due to the influence of the mother stone, and it turned out that it was indeed related, but what about last night?

For his proposal, it was the first time that Qi Ao was so obviously unwilling.

Then?

Then Qiao chose to follow him again.

Once again confirming this answer in his heart, a big rock that Ao Qi had been dangling in his heart for a long time finally fell to the ground, even if he was swallowed by the mire, he could return to his side, so he had nothing to worry about.

What Ao Qi didn't realize was that he used to think about raising Qi Ao until no one else could support him, but now that he's proficient in doing this, he hasn't thought about it for a long time. It was just to replace the food with finer phoenix marrow, dragon liver and golden wave jade liquid, and replace the clothes with more gorgeous brocade clothes and light fur, and take over every inch of his body without giving it to others.

In these respects, he can do the best.

It is not a simple matter to achieve the ultimate in anything.

Therefore, it is difficult for other people to judge this, it all depends on what he thinks, what Qi Ao thinks.

☆, recruitment

"According to what we agreed before, Ao Qi has already sent people to Yueming Island." Qi Ao stood in front of the table, politely declined Cang Yuyan's offer to pour tea for him, "I'm here today to tell you. "

Cang Yuyan showed a confused expression for a moment, then lowered her head, anxiously: "Thank you."

Qi Ao had some deals with Ye Cang Yuyan, when he tried to bring up their negotiation with Cang Yuyan during the day, he unexpectedly discovered that she had a vague impression of her, presumably Cang Yuyan that night made that paragraph The memory remained in her mind and was not erased, making Cang Yuyan feel that she had done this.

Qi Ao smiled brightly at Cang Yuyan's gratitude: "You don't need to say thanks to me, this is an equivalent exchange." Recalling Cang Yuyan's expression at night, Qi Ao suddenly became curious, "What did you have before?" sisters?"

Although she didn't know why Qi Ao suddenly asked such a question, Cang Yuyan still answered truthfully: "I don't remember clearly, but I heard from the old man that there was a sister who was a compatriot in the past, but it's a pity that something happened and she left when she was very young."

This was a casual question, but he did not expect to be guessed right. Qi Ao was taken aback for a moment, and then he stretched out his hand and patted Cang Yuyan's thin shoulder: "Don't be afraid, someone is always with you." They It has been more than a year since I came to Xixi Country, and Cang Yuyan has been lying in bed for more than half a year, so that she has not grown at all in the past year, and her health has improved slightly during this time, "I came today to tell you the news , The second is to see how your body is, since you are fine, then I will go first."

"That person, can it be you?"

Seeing that Qi Ao was about to leave, Cang Yuyan couldn't help standing up, and shouted out the words buried in her heart, and she didn't realize how rude this behavior was until the words fell to the ground.

She was so ashamed that she didn't even dare to look up at Qi'ao's face, she could only hear Qi'ao's slowed down steps, and then his words with a smile.

"This person is special to you and irreplaceable, including me."

The sunlight in autumn no longer has the enthusiasm of midsummer, but Qiao’s words are gentle like spring water in spring. It’s a pity that this spring water won’t stop for her, but hastily bypassed her. Sometimes stay cold.

All the strength in her body was taken away bit by bit with the step-by-step steps away again, and Cang Yuyan fell powerlessly on the stool, covering her face with her hands.

Since she asked for an equivalent exchange, she is not qualified to talk to Qi Ao about pure liking. Although the memory of this paragraph in her mind is very chaotic, she has enough time to explain and cancel this one. asked, but she didn't.

In fact, she had already made a choice.

After visiting Cang Yuyan, Qi'ao went directly to King Yuanma's meeting hall as agreed, met Aoqi at the door, and then entered through the notification.

King Yuan Ma was sitting in a golden lacquered wood chair. The armrests of the chair were carved with hollow and complicated patterns. A thin chain passed through one of the holes and was firmly locked on it. The other end was fastened to the collar around Yan Fanluo's neck who was kneeling on the ground.

The charm in the eyes of that once charming woman is now replaced by fear and fear. She is still wearing the clothes of a princess, but there are many clearly visible bruises on her bare skin.

Hearing the voices of other people at the door, Yan Fanluo flinched visibly.

The long hair hanging down did not completely block her sight, because she saw Ao Qi and Qi Ao walking in side by side at the first sight.

Yan Fan Luo's face turned pale.

She wanted to hide back at the first moment, but the sound of chains clanging reminded her of her current situation.

She glanced at King Yuan Ma beside her, and lowered her head tremblingly as much as possible.

Yan Fanluo was sure that the two of them had already seen her when they walked in, but they just glanced at her and then moved away, as if what they saw was only air.This made her a little grateful to them, but also a little resentful.

Today, King Yuanma called them here to ask Aoqi about their choice. In fact, there was no need to call them to the front of the hall, but King Yuanma did just that, and put this matter in front of Yan Fanluo. Do.

Thinking of this, Ao Qi became more concerned about King Yuan Ma in his heart.It seems that the king's deep sleep is not necessarily a bad thing. Years of fighting have made him more suspicious and cruel. For him, everyone except him is an ant. One of his joys is Poke open someone's wound and watch it bleed bright red again.

Here Qi Ao is returning their final decision to King Yuanma: "Thank you for your love, Your Highness, but we don't think we have the ability, so..."

"Mr. Gu, if you have anything to say, think carefully before answering." King Yuan Ma interrupted Qi Ao. He seemingly unintentionally picked up the treasured sword beside him. I understand.

Seeing Ao Qi's habitual protective gesture, Yuan Ma Wang laughed twice, and put down the knife again: "You don't have to be so nervous, it's just a little wish of a poor person who is eager to seek talents, and you can do it too. Can't you help make it happen?"

"I really can't understand what you guys are thinking." Looking at the two faces with identical expressionless faces, King Yuanma felt a little dizzy. He stepped down from the throne and advised them kindly, "Help me stabilize The throne, I will give you the land to be the king, this is a great opportunity for a win-win situation. The balance of the two, with such obvious pros and cons, you actually chose the other side, which is really beyond my expectations."

For King Yuanma, the importance of both sides is indeed obvious, but for them, one side is to work for others, and the other side is absolutely impossible to leave Ximo Kingdom alive even if they refuse.

Is there a big difference between the two?Both of them scoffed at this.

However, the play that I have written, I still have to go on.

Protecting the frightened Qi Ao, although Ao Qi was dissatisfied, he couldn't help but asked: "Your Highness still has elite soldiers and millions of soldiers, and we think there is nothing worthy of His Highness's fancy." The words sounded respectful, but everyone present heard the meaning inside.

The front is a real irony.Although Yesuo Shangnuo has been lying low and small during this period of time, but after a little inquiring, it is known that two-thirds of the country's military force is in the hands of Yesuo Shangnuo. The dormancy during this period must be brewing a bigger backlash.

King Yuan Ma's eyes set on Aoqi's sword, which had not yet been inlaid with mother stones, but after so many things in Aoqi's hands, it already had a brilliance that could not be ignored: "Master Dugu has an enemy Wan's military strength, Mr. Gu has an extraordinary brain, with this fierce general, I will be able to end this disaster that should not have happened sooner."

Qi Ao suddenly coughed behind Ao Qi.

Ao Qi cleared his throat, and glanced back, Qi Ao nodded and walked out from behind Ao Qi: "Having said so, it would appear that we don't know what's good if we try to evade, but we still have one more request," he confirmed Knowing that King Yuanma didn't mean to be angry, he continued in fear, "Please ask King Yuanma to order the sword house to be reopened."

It was past lunch time when King Yuan Ma finally asked the two of them to leave on the grounds that they wanted to rest. When they returned to their room, their footsteps seemed a little hurried, but they were still stopped by someone.

He still remembered the person opposite, Qi Ao was quite impressed by the way this person looked at him and food.Qi'ao took a deep breath, suppressed the gushing emotions in her heart, and continued the poem with a serious look.

In order to show respect for them, King Yuan Ma removed all the maids in their room according to their habits, not because they would not show up at will when they needed it, so when they returned to the room, there were only the two of them up.

Qi Ao relaxed and kept a smiling face, and took the tea that Ao Qi Sheng had prepared.What he exchanged with him was the page that Ao Qi took from him.

Aoqi took the paper in his hand and only glanced at it, then threw it on the table, and called Jingnv out to arrange lunch.

Qi Ao looked at Ao Qi's actions and shook his head amusingly.

The water splashed on the table quickly blurred the ink on the paper.Although the handwriting could no longer be read clearly, Qi Ao could still guess that he didn't want to pick it up, so now he can give an explanation.

This little episode was quickly and completely forgotten by them.

After all the orders were given, Qi Ao finally had time to express his almost uncontrollable emotions in front of King Yuan Ma. King Yuan Ma's description of the two of them would make him laugh no matter how many times he thought of it. out of breath.

After laughing sincerely for a while, Qiao wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes: "It turns out that in his eyes, I am just a nerd, and you have well-developed limbs and weapon bonuses." He exhaled and smiled. It faded away in the eyes in an instant, "I want to treat you as my hand and me as my brain, and see if he has the life to enjoy this blessing."

Ao Qi's hand that was originally helping Qi Ao to pat his back stopped when he heard Qi Ao's words. He looked at Qi Ao, from Qi Ao's disdainful eyebrows to the sneering mouth corners, the rare and slightly mean lines But it made Aoqi's heart sway.He stretched out his hand to cover Qi'ao's eyes, and took advantage of the opportunity to let his upper body lie in his arms. The feeling of fullness in his arms made Ao Qi feel extremely satisfied, even the slight itch and itchiness of the eyelashes brushing his palms became Became a feather caressing my heart.

Qi Ao watched Ao Qi holding him and adjusted his posture so that he could lie more comfortably. He was quiet for a while, then changed his direction, turned his face inward, and hugged Ao Qi's waist with both hands.

Ao Qi was a little funny: "You don't have to worry, I will be more careful when forging the sword."

Qi Ao casually and gently stroked Ao Qi's waist and back over and over again, he put his face on Ao Qi's chest, and finally said a word slowly: "If you go crazy, I will use the Fengniao Lianhua sword will kill you." He said and made two blind gestures with his fingers.

Ao Qi grabbed his finger, and the two of them were very close, and they knew each other's state clearly. He licked his lips and was about to say something when someone knocked on the door.

After Qi Ao sat up and straightened the wrinkled collar, Ao Qi walked over to open the door.

The moment he opened the door, Ao Qi's expression changed suddenly, he took a step to the right almost without thinking, and it seemed that after he took the action, a figure rushed towards the place where he was standing.

The person who was about to fall tightly closed his eyes, while the person behind her opened his mouth and still stretched out his hand, it was too late to hold her.

Seeing that the other party left the originally set position but she couldn't take back her movements, Ruan Meier, who was ready to fall to the ground, suppressed her screams in her throat, but unexpectedly at the last moment, she was caught by someone with strong strength. She held her hand, and she didn't even realize what happened, she went from facing a crisis to being pulled into standing firmly in place.

That hand let go of her quickly, but the smiling words were still in my ears: "Be careful." The last sigh seemed to be slightly helpless and full of pampering, but it happened to ignite a fire at the tip of Ruan Meier's ear, Burns from the tips of the ears to the face.

In a blink of an eye, Mu Xiuqi, who was originally behind Ruan Meier, had already pulled Qi Ao's sleeve affectionately, left Ruan Meier and Ao Qi beside the door, and walked in while pulling Qi Ao to express his heartfelt feelings, with a rare smile on his face With a sad face: "Brother Gu, I'm going to visit other cities with my cousin during this period of time. I can't stay here forever. My father wrote to me yesterday asking about my progress. I don't know how to reply him, but I really don't want to leave you." By the end, I was on the verge of crying.

Qi Ao didn't expect to see Mu Xiuqi like this one day, he couldn't laugh or cry, he could only comfort him: "Brother Mu, just go, we can't leave at this time, we will go back together when you arrive."

Since avoiding Ruan Meier, Ao Qi has been standing aside with arms folded, like a sculpture. Although he didn't say a word, he never took his eyes off the two of them.And Mu Xiuqi held Qi'ao's hand and talked for a long time with such eyes, until Qi'ao had something to say before he persuaded him to leave.

Sending them away, Qiao wiped his forehead, and he broke out in a cold sweat in such a cold weather.

"Did Ruan Meier talk to you just now?" Qi Ao ran into Ao Qi as soon as he turned around. Lu forging the sword, this is the most important thing, you have to remember clearly what the owner told you."

They told the truth about the acquisition of the mother stone, and even the owner was overjoyed, and wrote a long letter to tell them to be careful, but unfortunately he was also dissatisfied with the way the mother stone was used to upgrade the Shuanglong Red Feather Sword. It is very clear, after all, the dream happened many years ago, he can only remember a general idea, but he remembers a part very clearly, that is, after the fusion of the mother stone and the double dragon red feather sword, the blood sacrifice of the sword guard is needed, the sooner the better, so that the greatest strength can be achieved. Avoid the evil spirits born from it as much as possible.

In other words, they will have to visit the Lian family father and daughter when the time comes.

Facing Ao Qi's complex eyes, Qi Ao pretended not to see anything and silently turned his head.

☆, light and dark

This day the wind was very strong, and the yellow sand flying all over the sky almost fascinated people's eyes. King Yuan Ma sent a small team to escort Ao Qi and Qi Ao to Jianlu. Mu Xiuqi and Ruan Mei'er had already set off two days ago. Cang Yuyan seems to have grown up a lot during this time, except for Yueming Island, she seldom seeks out Qi Ao, so this time it is only them.

The sword hut behind Aoqi has been opened, the sound of rumbling and rumbling comes out together with bursts of hot air mixed with dust, a ventilation window is opened from the top of the sword hut, and the light shines down from here, you can see the dark red inside, shaking. People were dazzled, and for a long time to come, Ao Qi would have to live and eat inside.

The wind blows their clothes upside down. Compared with Ao Qi's bunt, which is suitable for activities, Qi Ao is wearing a Cang Kingdom costume today, with layers of layers, long sleeves and long robes. The waist with hooks makes his waist look more slender. A slender saber was hung at his waist, and a few strands of hair tied on top of his head were blown loose.

"Real style." Standing opposite Qi Ao, Ao Qi actually thought of joking.

Qi Ao was not to be outdone: "Maybe it will be the last time you see me, how can I not give you a formal impression."

After saying this sentence, the two couldn't help but looked at each other and smiled, Ao Qi didn't even say goodbye and turned around and entered the sword house, the gate of the sword house slowly closed in front of Qi'ao.

Qi Ao didn't stay any longer, got on his horse and ran towards the royal city without saying a word, followed by a row of soldiers.

After entering the palace, Qi Ao got off his horse, but he didn't go back to his room directly, he walked to a strange small house like a firewood house, even the servants of the palace would live better than here up some.

The two soldiers who followed from outside the city to the gate saluted and left.

Qi Ao knocked on the door, heard the voice inside, then opened the door and walked in.

The inside was still very dilapidated, but the only side of the couch was covered with satin and gold brocade that was incompatible with the surroundings. Even in the absence of sunlight today, there was a faint golden light glowing in the gray walls and dark wood.There was a person sitting on the roof with high spirits, with warm fresh milk and shortbread in front of him, and when he saw him coming in, he greeted him warmly.

Qi Ao stood before the collapse and made a big salute: "I have seen His Royal Highness."

Yesuo turned his face on Nuo: "Gu Qi'ao, do you see me as an outsider?"

Qi Ao thought for a while that Yesuo Shangnuo probably didn't know what his wife meant, so he swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue and changed it: "Your Highness, you are joking, no matter when and where, you are Your Highness."

What he said was like a tongue twister, and the more he thought about it, the meaning became more and more elusive. Yesuo Shangnuo was not so well-educated, so he stared at Qi Ao and couldn't speak. He suppressed the breath in his heart: "I called you today because I have news about the person you asked me to investigate."

However, Qi Ao didn't show the joy he hoped to see, he just looked at him with those eyes, those eyes covered with frost and snow under the mountain flowers in spring, like a clear lake but can't see the bottom, reflecting that he is ridiculous His appearance, as well as those nasty and unspeakable plots that he thought Ying had hidden well, all disappeared without a trace.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness, for your concern." Qi Ao looked at him with neither humble nor overbearing, still smiling like a spring breeze, but now it became so strange in Yesuo Shangnuo's eyes, "But now our lives are in danger, and we can't take care of so much. "

After finishing speaking, he shut his mouth, and waited for Yesuo Shangnuo to be the one who broke everything with a smile.The two fell into a stalemate, the difference was that one of them was calm and calm, while the other's expression gradually became gloomy.

"I heard the news, you brought Aoqi and joined my father's command?" Yesuo Shangnuo also lost his patience, he tore off the mask of the friendship between Er and Ru, and put on the aura of a superior.

Qi Ao shook his head: "First of all, it's not that I 'brought' Aoqi. If you think Aoqi can be manipulated by others, then I have nothing to say. Secondly, we will never be inferior to others, we will not It can be used by anyone. In the end, I have already said," Qiao winked at Yesuo Shangnuo, "Our lives are in danger, and we only hope that we can leave the West Mexico alive in the end."

"You have to think about it. I only remind you of our friendship before us. Although the father is still the king of Ximen, I am very clear about the strength of his troops. Those generals and soldiers who followed him are now They are old, weak, sick and disabled, compared with my elite soldiers and strong generals, they are like hitting a stone with a pebble, have you really thought about it?" Yesuo Shangnuo spoke quickly, with some confidence and arrogance.

After Yesuo Shangnuo finished showing off like a child, Qi Ao slowly said what he always wanted to say: "If that's the case, why should your Highness stick to us?" Thoughts?

Yesuo Shangnuo was stunned by this question, and he was lost in thought, which made Qiao laugh a little.King Yuanma could at least say one reason, Yesuo Shangnuo just wanted to snatch someone from King Yuanma, he didn't even have a basic judgment on Aoqi and his own value.

Somewhat disappointed, Qi Ao didn't have the spirit to say anything more to Yesuo Shangnuo, and left the small room after saluting.

As soon as he returned to the room, before he could catch his breath, Ziye appeared in front of him and handed over three sealed documents. After waiting for a while, he still didn't see the young master taking it. Ziye looked up suspiciously, and saw the young master looking at him with a half-smile, Hard to see goosebumps all over his body, he could only repeat the words: "My lord, this is today's news."

Only then did Qi Ao lazily take the three sealed documents from him, and waved him to go down.

Three sealed letters, one from Gowu, one from Huayou, and one from Yueming Island.Gewu has only done two things recently, one is to open a casino and the other is to open a brothel, both of which are smoky industries, and he has managed them to flourish. It is a surprise that Gewu has such business talents.It was strange for a big man to open a brothel, but Gou's face was quite attractive to girls, plus he recruited a lot of talents and managed it in an orderly manner, this thing gradually became a good story.

Huayou’s credit has a large part of the chapter to express his appreciation for the fact that they obtained the mother stone. .This is the deepest level he can achieve. Whether it is Xuanyang Jedi Pavilion or Liusha Xingyue Building, even if it is a demon sect that is about to make waves, the entire Cangguo Jianghu's sphere of influence is only limited to Cangguo. As far as Yueming Island in the east, and the West Mexico Kingdom in the west, the power has been greatly weakened. Although some people have begun to realize such shortcomings and are dissatisfied with the status quo, it is impossible to achieve it overnight.

However, commercial trade does not have so many rules and regulations.

However, that cannot be said entirely.

Qi Ao picked up the last confidential letter at hand, and there were two short sentences in it. The dark guard successfully entered Yueming Island and connected with the contact person. The strength has suddenly increased, and now the two sides are evenly matched, so they can only be wasted.

Qi'ao replied to Huayou and Gewu's letters, adding her own name at the end.His signature seems to be drawing a strange pattern, some places have convolutes, some places are written with a slant, each stroke seems to be connected, and it seems to be disconnected. It is not a particularly complicated writing method but others After learning it, it can be recognized at a glance. This is the result of long-term discussions between him and Ao Qi.

After sealing the letter, Qi Ao called Ziye out, and added a sentence to him at the same time as these two letters: "Let them focus on defense for a month, and if the enemy does not move, I will not move, and they will naturally understand after a month."

After Ziye took the order to leave, he called Jingnv again, and told him carefully what tea he would drink, how to brew, and what cakes to prepare when he woke up from a nap later, and Jingnv agreed one by one. But he didn't leave for a long time.

"What's wrong?" Jing Nu always speaks surprisingly, and Qi Ao is also looking forward to what she will say this time.

Jingnu opened her mouth and replied: "I see that these things are usually handled by the master. I didn't expect there to be so many processes, and I didn't expect the young master to know so clearly." Even during the time when the relationship between the two was a little intense, these Everything was ordered by Aoqi one by one or done by himself.

Jingnu's words reminded Qi'ao: "Don't forget, maybe tomorrow I will have to change something to eat and drink."

After letting Jingnv retreat, Qiao lay down with the woolen blanket by himself, and finally he could take a good rest for a while. He felt that he hadn’t felt such tiredness for a long time, and even every little thing in life had to be arranged by himself. , this will never happen when Ao Qi is around.He never needs to say what he wants to eat now, and Ao Qi arranges these things for him without spending too much energy. He didn't expect to spend energy on it now.

Qi Ao turned over several times with his eyes closed, and finally lay flat and opened his eyes, looking helplessly at the top of the bed. He felt that his body was already asleep, but another part of his mind was very awake, controlling him so that he couldn't close his eyes at all. He could only hook his fingers to estimate when Ao Qi would come out.

As the days passed, the atmosphere of the Ximex Kingdom gradually condensed into a piece of cold and hard iron. The bustling and bustling palace in the past was full of wind and rain, and everyone wore a stiff mask on their faces. The vigilant mask is kept at all times of prudence, and everything is truly and concretely shown what is called a trigger.

This day's afternoon nap, Qi Ao woke up after a quarter of an hour of drowsy sleep. As soon as he opened his eyes, Jing Nu handed him tea. Unfortunately, he only took two sips before he couldn't drink any more.Jingnv took the teacup that was barely moving, and replaced it with Qi'ao. Before going to bed, she read more than half of Ximo Guozhi, seeing the black and blue under Qi'ao's eyes, and felt chills in her heart.

Aoqi's stay in the sword hut has far exceeded the originally estimated time, but so far no news has come out, no matter whether it is good or bad.Rumors that Ao Qi had died inside had even spread in the past few days, Qi Ao heard these words, but Qi Ao just laughed it off.

Midnight and the others had no time to ask about Qi'ao's attitude. They watched Qi'ao lose weight day by day, and now they would feel jittery when they saw Qi'ao's condition—the wrist seemed to be covered only by thin skin on the bone , it will shatter even if it is slightly folded, which makes them even more worried.

This time was different from the previous few times, Qi Ao also tried to eat, drink and rest as usual, but those things that he ate did not seem to be absorbed, but simply passed through his body.

"Young master's guess is correct. King Yuanma indeed summoned three generals into the palace to discuss matters." Since about three days ago, Ziye couldn't remember how many times he had conveyed such news to Qiao.

Qi Ao nodded to show that he had received the news.

Although King Yuanma asked them to stand in his team, he never reused him. He only gave him some unimportant news to let him know something, to show that he was not placed away, and he was happy to be at leisure. Contribute a small amount of energy to let King Yuanma see what he wants to see, but mostly focus on more worthwhile things.

For example, Aoqi, who is nearby and has no news, or a secret letter that is far away, thousands of miles away. According to the calculated date, the secret letter should have been delivered to the person who should arrive.

He only made a net in his mind, and then picked up those broken and hidden threads, and constantly weaved the omissions more densely. This net is soft and spongy, and it has engulfed thousands of things. , and it is getting bigger and bigger. This net has already taken shape, but it is still short of some silk threads. These threads may be delivered soon, or it may take an unknown period of time.

Chen Yu rushed in hastily, his young brows were full of joy and vigor: "My lord, a soldier died in a fight in the barracks." It seemed that he was reporting some great happy event.

Qi Ao felt that he had already seen the monstrous waves caused by the stone thrown into the sea.

The secret letter from thousands of miles away arrived as scheduled.Gowu was patrolling the store when he got the secret letter. He opened the letter and read it carefully twice, and his eyes lit up when he closed it.It was rare for the attendants to see Ge Wu in such high spirits, so they asked a question, but Ge Wu did not answer him directly, but kept such high spirits and led them out of the store, while asking: "The place I asked you to find is now We can start further arrangements, and we must make those master craftsmen feel at home."

Also excited was Huayou, who acted more fiercely than Gowu, chopping a few not-so-thin wooden stakes horizontally with a flick of soft silk.Panting heavily, he took the wet towel and wiped off the sweat on his forehead. With an elated smile on the corner of Huayou's mouth, he threw the wet towel aside: "Let the 'hand' and 'foot' people wait for me in the hall. .” There was an excitement in his emotions that he didn’t want to cover up at all, so that his voice was a little sharp.
