Dao fruit.

"Number one?"

After Yan Yongjie got a response from Qiu Yan, his complexion changed suddenly, his eyes widened in disbelief.

This was not a secret, and Qiu Yan naturally didn't need to hide it from him, but in fact, due to being manipulated by others, Yan Yongjie had been in a daze for more than half a year and could not get any information about the imperial examination.And half a year ago, he was busy dealing with natural disasters and traveling around his hometown, so he didn't have time to search for Qiu Yan's news. Because of this, he didn't know anything about it, and now he suddenly heard it, and the impact was huge.

It's like a friend from the beginning, after not seeing him for a few years, suddenly learned that he is working in the center, the contrast is huge.

But after getting the answer, he immediately felt a little uncomfortable, and he didn't dare to call Qiu Yan "brother", and called himself "brother", and his words became a little cautious.

Qiu Yan was not surprised, he had a lot of experience, but he didn't like his friend showing such an attitude, so he said: "I remember that brother Yan has a strong heart in martial arts, and he is not afraid of worldly thoughts. , after obtaining that cultivation technique, you can immediately get out of the barrier, so why should you create a prison for yourself today?"

As soon as these words were said, Yan Yongjie felt a sense of suddenness, his whole person's spirit suddenly restrained, two souls circulated in his body, and the shadow of the third soul was looming.

His changes couldn't escape Qiu Yan who was close at hand, and the latter couldn't help sighing secretly: "Brother Yan's aptitude is astonishing, he has never worshiped a mountain gate, and he has never really practiced any supernatural powers. Practicing mortal martial arts, I have tempered my flesh and blood to the peak of foundation building, but after a little contact with the tricks, my whole body is immediately penetrated, and my soul is advanced. Now that I have experienced hardships, my mind and body are slightly separated, but I have listened to my words. Instead, I made use of this sense of estrangement to improve myself!"

It turned out that Qiu Yan's enlightening words fell into Yan Yongjie's ears, which made him feel something in his heart. It just so happened that his consciousness has not yet fully matched his physical body. His body is like a fence or a cage, which makes him feel that it is difficult to escape. , Unexpectedly, under the mistake of yin and yang, the perception was linked.There is a sign of breaking through the current realm and condensing one more spirit!

However, this is not something that can be accomplished overnight. After feeling something, Yan Yongjie did not rush forward, calmed down the fluctuations in his body, opened his eyes again, looked at Qiu Yan and said, "It's really three days since I saw you. One sentence. It will clarify things that brother can't see through."

This time, his whole temperament changed slightly, as if there was something extra, and he slowly got up.Turning to look at the rickety old man again, his expression turned cold: "In addition, my thoughts are much clearer, and I have thought of some things. I have a guess about the identity of this person."

"Oh? Brother Yan knows his identity?" Qiu Yan already had a certain understanding of the forces behind this old man.This can be seen from the changes in the other party's luck, but I don't know much about his specific name.

Yan Yongjie nodded and said: "That's right, when this man first recruited me into the group, he said something that I felt a little familiar with. In the past half a year or so, what he asked me to do has been further revealed. , this person may be related to the Tiangang Disha on the land of Qilu, and judging by his attire, he is also the same as the old man seeking Gu in the rumors in the world!"

"Jianghu martial arts?" Qiu Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, and several figures flashed in his mind, his consciousness was connected, matching with an article, and he nodded secretly.

"Yan Yongjie, I didn't expect you to have some knowledge, hehehe." The rickety old man was terrified before, not knowing how Qiu Yan would deal with him, but after listening to his words, he became more at ease, and now he listened to Yan Yongjie. But then he laughed sinisterly.

However, while laughing, his eyes turned to Qiu Yan's body, he was quite apprehensive, and at the same time, he turned his mind even more.

"This Qiu Yan is really evil. He won the first prize, but he is still a monk. He captured the old man just now. It seemed that he had spent little effort, and he broke through supernatural powers and witchcraft with ease. This kind of ability may not even be able to be possessed by the village owner. This person..."

Looking carefully at Qiu Yan, an idea came to the old man's heart.

"Identity, status, prestige, cultivation, rumors that he was invincible in the grasslands, it can be seen that the military strategy is far beyond ordinary people. If you can say that he came to invest in the cottage, wouldn't he be better than a hundred people? In this way, the If he catches it, it may not be a bad thing, I can use my proposition to subtly change him!"

At this time, Qiu Yan raised his eyes and glanced at him, as if he had seen through his thoughts, which calmed down the old man's thoughts slightly.

"I'm not in a hurry about this person for the time being," Qiu Yan looked away and said to Yan Yongjie, "I still have something to ask him. Let’s testify to each other.”

"This is flattering me. It's time for me to ask you for advice," Yan Yongjie said with self-knowledge. "Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other for some years. It's time to catch up and have a good drink. But in two days, I I have to go back to Yanzhao, after all, my hometown is in trouble, so I have to ask, it has been delayed for half a year, and I don’t know what’s going on there.”

While talking, he glanced at the old man again, and said: "This man was captured by my virtuous brother. Of course, it is up to you to deal with him. He is now defenseless and powerless to fight back. Even if he takes revenge, it is not honorable."

After hearing this, the rickety old man breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to think about his calculations.

Qiu Yan didn't care about him, and turned to look at the unconscious people around him. These people didn't have the shock of Qiu Yan's consciousness, and they haven't regained consciousness yet.

"They are all people who have been charged by the old man in the past six months. Most of them are martial arts people, and there are also Taoist priests. There were two of my brothers, but they were killed when they attacked the caravan." Speaking of this, Yan There was a bit of hatred in Yongjie's eyes, and he followed the conversation, "By the way, brother, you are an official now, and it's inconvenient to mix with us, how about..."

"Brother Yan, you don't have to worry, I have my own plans." Qiu Yan waved his hand, "Actually, I came here with the Meng family motorcade. Mention your matter."

"I'm afraid this is a little inappropriate. Don't get your brother involved." Yan Yongjie frowned when he heard this.

"Brother Yan, if you really commit crimes and kill innocent people, even if you and I are old, I won't do it, but the culprit is not you, you are also the victims, how can I refuse? "Qiu Yan said sternly, "What's more, it was actually my original intention to let the Meng family sell their personal favors, otherwise they are so busy, but they don't show anything, and they don't want to let them help, but they offend People, causing unnecessary trouble."

Yan Yongjie was no longer the director of human relations in the officialdom. Seeing that Qiu Yan couldn't be persuaded, and the other party had his own opinions, he stopped talking.

Not long after, two servants of the Meng family came to investigate. Although Qiu Yan ordered them not to wait outside before entering the forest, if something happened, Meng Ting and the others couldn't bear it, so naturally they wouldn't be really indifferent. Or let people come in and disperse the search.

However, Qiu Yan entered the forest and fought cleanly this time, and the incident was calmed down in just a few breaths. When the servants found him, the dust had already fallen to the ground. Be careful of the picture standing on the side, and when you turn your eyes, you find many people around you unconscious.

"It's just in time." Qiu Yan saw the person coming and waved, "Let Meng Wei and the others come over, just in time with Qiu, and bring these people along."

………………

"Those people in the car are the gang of thieves who attacked my Meng's convoy?"

On the way, Meng Wei was still repeatedly confirming this matter.

At this moment, both he and Qiu Yan were riding on horseback, and the carriage was given over to the unconscious people to carry them.

"They are not thieves, they are also held hostage by others. I said brother, hasn't Mr. Qiu made this point clear?" On the side, Meng Ting pulled the rein and drove the horse closer, "You are still a thief, Let the young masters and ladies hear it, and they don't know what commotion is going to happen."

"Yes, yes, I was negligent." Meng Wei changed his words quickly.

When Qiu Yan heard this, he just smiled and didn't say much. Yan Yongjie, who was following him, also showed no abnormality. In the distance, the outline of a city was already in sight. state.

Daizhou is the administrative seat of Daizhou Prefecture. It is located in the frontier, but it is not impoverished because of this. On the contrary, it is very prosperous because of the relationship between the past merchants.

"Four years ago, I came to Daizhou once. At that time, Daizhou was even more prosperous than it is now." Looking at the passers-by on the road, Yan Yongjie also said with emotion, showing the color of nostalgia. What a painstaking effort.

Qiu Yan understood this in his heart, and at the same time, he had already started to combine some exercises and tailor-made them for Yan Yongjie. After all, the "New World Experience" that Yan Yongjie gave him was of great help to him. The grace of this drop of water must be repaid with a spring.

Thinking about it, the crowd in front suddenly made a noise, and then the smoke rose again - but a group of people came out of the city in a mighty way, rushing towards Qiu Yan's convoy.

Seeing this scene, Qiu Yan had already anticipated what would happen next.

Sure enough, the team came to Qiu Yan's team and stopped immediately. A handsome young man walked out of the team, with a straight suit and a handsome face, and his eyes swept over everyone.

Meng Wei, Meng Ting and the others got off their horses immediately and were about to salute, but the young master laughed and said, "Second Brother Ting, Fourth Brother Wei, why are you so polite? Why don't you introduce Qiu Xiuzhuan to me quickly? Ah!" As he spoke, he cast his eager eyes on the few people who hadn't dismounted from their horses, and finally stopped on Qiu Yan, his eyes lit up.

Qiu Yan has experienced a lot and has a temperament different from ordinary people. (To be continued..)
