Nie Pan completely wiped out the power of the Elder's Mansion in a week.

Xie Shen returned the Phoenix Token to him, ignored other matters, and took Qi Zhao to walk around Phoenix City all day long. Fenghuang Street in Phoenix City is the same as Furong Street in Tianxu City. Qi Zhao and Yuan Qi like this place very much, they would go there once every evening.

Wei Jiaze woke up on the ninth day.

He wanted to see Qi Zhao, so Nie Pan sent someone to invite him.It was dusk when Qi Zhao passed by, he walked into the bedroom, and saw Wei Jiaze leaning on the couch with his arms in his arms, meditating, the light from the window smudged his eyebrows and eyes.

Hearing footsteps, Wei Jiaze tilted his head, saw that it was Qi Zhao and smiled, "You're here."

Qi Zhao stepped forward and sat down next to him, "How is it, do you feel okay?"

Wei Jiaxu had cut his wrist before, and the demonic barrier had seeped into his blood, manipulating him to hurt Nie Pan. After he woke up, he was stimulated again, and he almost couldn't wake up.

"Fortunately, it made you worry."

"Then... are you and Nie Pan alright?"

Wei Jiaze was silent for a moment, then spoke softly, "He took good care of me, but I just don't know how to face him, five years ago and five years later, twice, I..."

He lowered his eyes, "Actually, Wei Jiaxu is right. If I would trust him wholeheartedly, why would I go through so many things?"

Qi Zhao sighed softly, "Your thought is to punish him for the third time. He endured the pain of crushing his heart twice. It takes a lot of courage to move forward, but what he gets is your avoidance. How sad?"

Wei Jiaze was taken aback.

After a long while, he bit his lips, his eyes became firm, "I... I know, I will go find him later, and I will treat him well."

"It couldn't be better."

Qi Zhao laughed, and handed over the food box behind him, "This is the Jiuniang Yuanzi I made. I originally thought that if you were still obsessed with it, I wouldn't eat it for you. You are lucky."

Wei Jiaze also smiled, took the food box over and thanked him, Qi Zhao looked at him, and realized that Wei Jiaze actually had a pretty smile, gentle and moist, not at all like his original cold appearance.

It's all about the power of love.

Qi Zhao sighed in his heart, narrowed his eyes and smiled.

Later, Qi Zhao left the City Lord's Mansion.

Indus Street is outside the city lord's mansion. It was a bit deserted at this time. Qi Zhao took a few steps forward and poked out the scroll of the sacred wood totem.

[Dangdangdang——Congratulations to Qi Zhaozhao for lighting up the phoenix sacred wood totem, becoming a big winner is just around the corner! 】

"Don't talk about the big winner, why do I feel that I am actually pulling a red line?"

[Do you have any misunderstanding about your position? 】

"Not at all." Qi Zhao said coolly, "Tianxu City and Phoenix City are both due to emotional entanglements, and I am mixed in the middle, feeling that I am almost a red thread boy."

[The Red Thread Boy is not as old as you... No, that's not the point. The point is who told you that the phoenix totem is lit because Nie Pan and Wei Jiaze reunited? 】

Qi Zhao was surprised, "Isn't it?"

"It seems that I really overestimated you, Xianyu Zhao." Xiao Jiu's tone was very disdainful, "The reason why the Wuwu totem is lit is because Qin Lu's soul has not disappeared, and the phoenix totem is because the heart of the phoenix has not been taken away."

"After all, don't different routes lead to the same goal?"

【Um? 】

"Because Qin Xiu was reluctant to part with Qin Lu, he had the heart to survive, so Qin Lu's soul lingered. Wei Jiaze also eliminated the misunderstanding. After Nie Pan turned into the phoenix tree and heard his words, his heart never died, so he was reborn from nirvana. to be preserved.”

【…】Xiao Jiu couldn't find a point to refute for a while, she was silent for a long time, and said angrily, 【Okay, okay, whatever you say, boy Hongxian. 】

Qi Zhao didn't intend to quarrel with him, that would be too childish, after thinking about it, he said: "Actually, I always feel that this matter is not over yet, what role does Chi Mu play in this, what does Buye have to do with him... There are others, I can't figure it out."

[The truth will always come to light. 】

Xiao Jiu said something softly, and stopped talking. Qi Zhao also knew that he didn't want to say anything, so he didn't continue to ask, and walked back to the Phoenix Inn slowly.

It was already dark at this time.

Qi Zhao ordered food downstairs, carried it upstairs on a wooden tray, and knocked on the door, "Guest officer, the food is here, do you need any special service?"

He said this to Xie Shen one night when he was having a little fun, and Xie Shen naturally understood what it meant. After a chuckle, he got up and opened the door, his eyes slightly raised, "Where did you invite Xiaoer, such a sign ?”

Alas.

Qi Zhao put the tray on the table and arranged the bowls and chopsticks, "It's all your favorite food, come and taste it."

Xie Shen put his arms around Qi Zhao's waist, leaned his head against his neck, "I don't want to eat."

Qi Zhao thought that he didn't like the inn's appetite, "Do you not like it? Then what do you want to eat? I'll borrow the kitchen to make it for you."

The voice fell, and Xie Shen laughed softly in his ear, "Didn't you say that there are special services?"

Qi Zhao coughed dryly, and said with a serious face, "You heard wrong."

"Really?" Xie Shen lowered his head and kissed his earlobe, "Did I hear wrong?"

"It's useless for you to flirt with me. It's true that you misheard." Qi Zhao pulled Xie Shen's hand off his waist, with a very serious expression, "Eat, don't talk about anything else."

Xie Shen laughed, stopped making trouble with him, sat down and picked up his chopsticks.Qi Zhao was not hungry, so he rested his chin on the side and looked at him. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a book on the table, which should have been read by Xie Shen before.

He was a little curious, and brought the book over. The cover was elegant and clean, and it looked like a serious book.

Reassured, Qi Zhao stretched out his hand to open the title page, and only looked down, his face blushed immediately.

That's all for the little yellow book. It's not like he hasn't read it before, but this book is too big.

Qi Zhao closed the book with a red face, Xie Shen over there had already put down his chopsticks, and was looking at him with a smile in his eyes, his pupils were as bright as lake water.

The little fool who got into the cover by himself hesitated and said, "This, what is this?"

"Don't you like it?" Xie Shen had a tender smile on his lips, "I thought you would like the second pose on the third page."

Qi Zhao followed his words and turned to the third page. After seeing clearly the posture Xie Shen said, his fingers trembled, and he shook his head, "This is absolutely not possible!" His waist would be broken.

"The one up there?"

"..."

"The last one on the first page?"

"..."

Qi Zhao looked quietly at Xie Shen, "Don't try to trick me."

"It's not a routine." Xie Shen chuckled, "I just think these are good, and I want to try them all with you. It seems that you like the last one better? Then let's try this one tonight, um ?”

As he said that, he narrowed his eyes, "As for the rest, let's... take our time."

The last three words were said slowly and meaningfully. Qi Zhao was terrified. The intuition of the little animal finally came into use at this moment. He got up and wanted to go out. Just as he walked to the door, a black golden vine came from behind him to block the door. , blocked all his way.

Qi Zhao turned around slowly.

Xie Shen walked up to Qi Zhao slowly, leaned over and hugged him by the waist, and smiled softly.

"It's okay, there is one more night, which one do you like, we can try side by side."

……

The date of returning to Wanjing City is scheduled for October [-]th.

That is three days later.

On the evening of the second day, Qi Zhao went to the Phoenix Mountain's Bulgar Tree, intending to bring Qin Xiu back.

The Eternal Tree was still surrounded in the middle, its branches and leaves were like fire, shining brightly. Qi Zhao opened the square with a vine-wood seal and walked in. The Eternal Tree obviously still remembered him. The one in the middle is Qin Xiu.

When it was just put into the enchantment, the branches and leaves of the 梼杌 sacred tree were dim and lifeless, but now less than two months have passed, and the goodbye is already showing the appearance of brilliance.

Qi Zhao picked it up in surprise, and looked at the Unold Tree with bent eyes, "Thank you."

The branches and leaves of the immortal tree shook, and the voice was kind and peaceful, "It's okay."

After all, its hanging vines rolled upwards, and when it came back, there was a red-gold branch in the center of the vines, leaning against Qi Zhao's hand, "Take it, you will need it."

Qi Zhao took the branch over and felt the warmth in his hand. He carefully put it away and thanked him again.

The Eternal Tree smiled slowly and did not speak. After the branches and leaves trembled, the enchantment around him lit up again, and Qi Zhao only felt his eyes shake, and he was already standing outside the enchantment.

Qi Zhaoyao bowed towards it, and carried the 梼杌 Shenshu down the mountain.

After returning, Qi Zhao went to look for Wei Zhoumu first.

Elder Wei was packing his bags, but he didn't turn back when he heard the footsteps, "Qin Xiu picked it up?"

Qi Zhao responded, and walked to his side to help with the arrangement, "The Old Tree also gave me a branch, saying that I will need it later."

"Eternal tree branch?" Old Wei paused for a moment, then suddenly laughed, "You have to hide this, the immortal tree branch is only given to those who are destined, and those people from Planting Spirit Hall in Phoenix City go to the mountain to get close when they have nothing to do, and no one takes it It’s been less than two months since you’ve been here, and they won’t be so mad when they find out.”

Having said that, his tone was very happy, "But it's okay, if you want to, it's good to annoy them, especially to show Fu Yicheng, what a face."

Qi Zhao smiled, "Okay."

The master and apprentice packed their bags, Wei Zhou sat down behind the table, took a sip of tea, "How is Qin Xiu?"

"much better."

But it was still not enough. On the way back, Qi Zhao tried to talk to Qin Xiu, but he didn't get a response, which meant that his bloodline was not fully recovered and could not be rebuilt.

"Don't be discouraged, although it's not enough, but I think it's almost there, and I won't wait too long."

Qi Zhao hummed.

Elder Wei glanced at him and stood up, "I'm leaving tomorrow, I have to say goodbye to those old things, otherwise they will arrange me again, that's not okay."

Qi Zhao stood up, got up too, and went out with Wei Lao. When they went out, Wei Zhoumu seemed to remember something, and turned around and told him, "Also, you and Xie Shen should also calm down tonight. There should be many people in the morning." It’s not good for others to see it.”

Qi Zhao's cheeks were hot immediately, and he coughed dryly, "...Okay."

Only then was Wei Zhoumu satisfied, waved his hand, turned and went downstairs.

Leaving Qi Zhao alone standing there blushing, waiting for the heat on his cheeks to fade completely, he went back and opened the door.

……

In the early morning of the next day, return to Wanjing City.

Sure enough, many people came to send them off.

Most of the people gathered around Xie Shen and Wei Zhoumu, and there were only a few people on Qi Zhao's side. Xu Yan was very reluctant to part with Qi Zhao, and the corners of his eyes drooped, "Really, you are gone. In a few days, Qin Wan and Yuan Qi I have to go back, and there is no one who can have a good fight with me."

"Aren't you planning to go back?" Qi Zhao remembered that Xu Yan was not from Phoenix City.

"Speaking of this, I'm desperate." Xu Yan sighed, "I'm from Relic Wind City, you don't know, most of them are literati, and they're just ordinary people. The noise makes me have a headache, and there's no one who can fight."

Qi Zhao couldn't help laughing.

Gentle and elegant, the legacy of a gentleman.People in Relic Wind City don't care about power or money, they just love piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, wine and tea. They don't love to practice and learn from each other. There are many people who enjoy flowers and drink wine.

A militant like Xu Yan is really suffering there.

Qi Zhao looked at him sympathetically, "Then what are you going to do in the future?"

"I plan to go to Qimu City first, where the strong are respected, and I should be able to find many fellows." Xu Yan smiled heartily, "I'm going to say goodbye, I don't know when we will see you again, but you don't have to miss me , when I have enough time in Qimu City, I will go to Wanjing City to find you."

Qi Zhao responded with a smile.

The people surrounding Xie Shen and Elder Wei finally dispersed, Xie Shen walked to Qi Zhao's side, "Let's go."

Qi Zhao nodded, said goodbye to Yuan Qi and the others and got into the carriage.

Five days later, it returned to Wanjing City.

At this time of early autumn, it was already a bit chilly in Evening Scenery City, and the breeze blew over the flowers in the corner, and the petals flew past the city gate and fell into people's homes, and then slowly touched people's shoulders.

Qi Zhaojue felt that he still liked the moonlight in Wanjing City the most, so he told Xie Shen that, City Lord Xie tilted his head and smiled, "Aren't you supposed to like the City Lord in Wanjing City the most?"

Old Wei: "..."

Du Wen: "..."

Xie Qing: "..."

Elder Wei waved his hand, "Young people these days are so unreserved. The old man really can't stand it anymore, so he left."

After finishing speaking, he handed over the vegetation in his arms to the chief steward next to him, turned and left.

Xie Qing was actually very bitter in his heart. He learned that the city lord and Mr. Qi would come back today, so he deliberately went to the city gate early to wait. He never thought that he would be caught off guard and was fed dog food. Also a good couple.

In comparison, it's just heartbreaking.

Xie Qing hugged the grass and trees and silently avoided the back.

Du Wen didn't care about that, he was very happy to see Qi Zhao back, "You're finally back, how are you doing, how are you doing in Phoenix City?"

"Not bad, thank you for your hexagrams, you are very good."

"Of course, you don't want to listen to the dead profiteer call me a little god, just think that I'm a bluff, and I'm not kidding."

Qi Zhao touched his nose, he had always thought so for quite a long time before.

Du Wen knew what he was thinking when he saw his appearance, and curled his lips, "I'm sad, you must coax me well, I can't get through without five boxes of scented tea."

"Okay." Qi Zhao smiled, his eyes curved into a very nice arc.

Xie Shen had only seen him so indulgent when he was climbing the Snake Tree, so he couldn't help but squinted his eyes, separated them, and said calmly, "It's time to go back."

Du Wenwu silently mouthed to Qi Zhao—I'm so jealous, are you able to coax me?

Qi Zhao smiled, touched his lips with his index finger, and Du Wen smiled knowingly, expressing his heart.

Xie Shen didn't see Du Wen's mouth shape before, only saw his last heart gesture, his eyes immediately darkened, and he held Qi Zhao's hand tightly.

Du Wen smiled triumphantly, and gave Qi Zhao a self-seeking look, "Qi Zhaozhao, I suddenly remembered that I had something to do, so I went back first, and I will come to you another day."

Qi Zhao nodded.

Du Wen smiled again, waved his hand, and his figure quickly disappeared into the alley.

Qi Zhao tugged at Xie Shen's sleeve with his free hand, "Let's go back, I... want to go home."

City Lord Xie was very coaxing, when he heard him talking about home, his eyes immediately softened, making him hold his hand tighter, and he took a step forward.

City Lord's Mansion.

Qi Zhao and Xie Shen had been out for a while this time, Xie Qing was the one who suffered the most, and the little yellow chicken was the one who was saddest.

Once Qi Zhao left, no one combed his feathers, fed him minced meat, and coaxed him with gentle voices. Only the thirteen people in Wanjing City remained expressionless and cold all day long, plus a smiling fox. .

It woke up this day, shook its feathers, and suddenly felt a familiar aura keenly.

Qi Zhao is back.

The little yellow chicken was immediately full of energy, squatting obediently by the edge of the garden and waiting. Soon, Yaoyao saw the figure approaching slowly, and happily ran over.

As soon as Qi Zhao turned the corridor, he was startled by a lump that suddenly appeared at his feet.

The lump trembled, as if eagerly, "Chi Chi Chi Chi!"

A little familiar.

Qi Zhao hesitated for a moment, "...Little yellow chicken?" Why did it become disabled so quickly?

Seeing that Qi Zhao recognized him, the little yellow chicken chirped happily and rubbed the feathers on Qi Zhao's clothes. It was very soft and cute when it was doing this when it was a child, but its appearance is justice. Sitting up, it's very... hard to describe.

Qi Zhao's expression became stiff for a moment.

The little yellow chicken, whose appearance is very rough now, has a sensitive heart, and took a sad look back, while Hei Doudou looked at Qi Zhao with moist eyes, "Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!"

You don't like me anymore?

But am I not good?I can protect you!

Qi Zhao felt guilty, stared at the little yellow chicken silently for a while, and gradually realized that it was not so ugly after getting used to it, so he squatted down and stroked the fur on top of its head, "Good boy."

The little yellow chicken was healed, stepped forward and rubbed his hand with his head down, Qi Zhao laughed and said softly: "I'm a little tired now, you can play by yourself first, I'll go to you later, okay? "

The little yellow chicken tilted its head and looked at Qi Zhao for a while, after confirming that he was not lying to him, he shook his feathers and jumped to the side.

Qi Zhao got up and waved at it. After returning to the residence, he suddenly realized that Xie Shen didn't seem to have spoken all the way. He looked over suspiciously. Xie Shen looked at him expressionlessly, his pupils were dark and heavy.

Although he didn't say anything, and there wasn't much emotion in his eyes, Qi Zhao just felt that he saw the meaning in Xie Shen's eyes.

——You are so indulgent to such an ugly thing, why can't you treat me better?

The jealous City Lord Xie is really cute, Qi Zhao squinted his eyes and smiled, leaned over and imitated Xie Shen's tone and said, "I'm jealous, huh?"

He was very close to Xie Shen, but he was not tall enough, so all the heat from speaking was sprayed on the latter's neck, Xie Shen's ears turned red unconsciously, and he looked at him deeply.

Qi Zhao's liver trembled at the red-eared and jealous Xie Chengzhu, and he became more courageous, "Why don't you talk?"

There was silence all around.

After a long time, Xie Shen suddenly smiled, bent slightly, his lips were less than a piece of paper away from Qi Zhao's, and said in a low voice, "I think it's better to do it than to say it, huh?"

Then there was a chuckle.

There was a warm touch on his lips, and a sullen and sultry low smile beside his ears, the number was too high, Qi Zhao couldn't stand it, he was stunned for a moment before realizing the meaning of Xie Shen's words, and couldn't help but take a step back , "You, don't talk nonsense."

City Lord Xie, who was in a bad mood due to imbalance before, finally got better. He looked at Qi Zhao with lingering eyes, and without flirting with him, he stretched out his hand to push back the hair scattered on his cheeks, and smiled slightly, "Okay, let's stop making trouble, let's take you Go eat."

so gentle.

Qi Zhao looked at him, feeling like his eyes would be shaken again.

……

On the second day after returning to Wanjingcheng, Qi Zhao was thinking about the plants and trees in Sajin Street, so he went there early in the morning with the sacred tree of 梼杌.

The grass and trees learned the news of Qi Zhao's return yesterday, and waited eagerly, but they only saw Qi Zhao after one night. They were a little unhappy, feeling that they had fallen out of favor, and hugged the leaves and petals in disappointment.

But the grass and trees are very coaxing, after listening to Qi Zhao's soft words, they stopped being angry, and began to ask Qi Zhao about his experience in Phoenix City with concern, Qi Zhao told them simply, report good news and not bad news, the grass and trees Relieved, they opened their mouths in unison.

"Qi Zhaozhao, welcome home!"

Qi Zhao's eyes suddenly softened into a puddle of water, and Qin Chu saw him next to him, and said with a smile, "The grass and trees really like you very much, the light on them has never been so bright as it is today. "

Qi Zhao pursed his lips and smiled, "Thank you for your hard work for more than a month."

"No, the grass and trees are very simple, and they don't need to talk and do superficial things. I like it very much."

The two sat down behind the rattan table, and Qin Chu poured him tea, "Qi Yu went to deliver pens and ink to the academy, and he will be back later."

Qi Zhao nodded, and after talking with Qi Yu for a while, he saw that the branches and leaves of the 梼杌 Shenmu were a bit messy, so he carried it to the window sill to trim it. The light outside the window was warm, and Qi Zhao trimmed it carefully, about halfway through. After an hour, he stopped.

He looked down, felt very satisfied, picked up the shower next to it and watered it, when everything was ready, Qi Zhao turned around, and suddenly heard the sound of branches and leaves passing by the window behind him.

Qi Zhao was startled, and then a lazy voice came into his ears.

"Qi Zhao, long time no see."

The author has something to say: Xie Sanzhu: "I like you."

Qi Zhaozhao: "Me too."

Du Wenwen: "I have a Taoist companion who is fearless."

Xie Qing: "It's a crime!"
