Femme beauty chooses to stick to the end
Chapter 33
As soon as Yu Chiyuan left, the sect naturally lacked a person who could preside over the overall situation. The elder with the most seniority in the sect would take the top position first, and in the future the sect would re-select someone with sufficient qualifications to take the place.
The following days became much more stable. Qu Xiuran left the sect and returned to Qu's house, and Qu Ling naturally went back with him.
Qu Xiuran is a very careful person, and he will not stay with him if he can't recognize the species of monsters. As early as the day he picked up Qu Ling and returned, he had already contacted Ji Tangsheng and asked him to help him identify the monsters kind of.
It took Ji Tangsheng a long time to tell him the result. He told Qu Xiuran that the monster had a feeling for Linglong.
It's just that Qu Xiuran at that time couldn't trust Qu Ling. No matter how you say it, this guy was not human, and it didn't even take long for him to bring him back.
But since then, Qu Xiuran has already started to have a plan, and he was able to implement it step by step thanks to the help of the system, and thanks to Qu Ling's obedience.
After poaching away the demon pill, he completely trusted Qu Ling. Qu Ling gave up his cultivation and had to rely on Qu Xiuran. Qu Xiuran used the other party's exquisite heart to frame Yu Chiyuan.
After the matter was over, he brought Qu Ling back to Qu's house.
Now the two largest cultivation families are the Fang family and the Qu family. Qu Xiuran wants to train his subordinates, just like Qu He trained Zuo Ying back then, he also needs people who can be used by him.
The Sheng family and the Zhou family have declined one after another, and the Tianyan Sect is also going downhill after changing its suzerain. Most of the aspiring monks in the cultivation world have defected to the Fang family and the Qu family. During this period, Qu He has accepted many talented disciples.
Qu Xiuran once went to visit, and the monks who went to Fang's house and Qu's house were very different.
Just from appearance, those who go to Fang's house are usually clean and upright, Ling Ran is upright, dressed in white clothes, and holding a sword, while the paintings of Qu's house are more varied, some with axes and hammers, and some There are a large number of burn marks on the skin, some of which look more like demons.
In addition to humans and monsters in the realm of comprehension, there is also a kind of half-demon. Compared with monsters, they are more like monsters. They are usually the children of humans and monsters. Cultivating together, they have great talents, and the top monsters also have strong abilities.
On the day Qu Xiuran went to visit, there happened to be a half-demon at the scene, wearing a fox mask and wrapped in black cloth, standing thin and thin in the crowd, Qu Ling could smell that person was not very good just passing by. Satisfied.
He pointed to Qu Xiuran, and Qu Xiuran followed his line of sight for a while, and the other party was obviously sharper than ordinary humans, and looked up at Qu Xiuran.
Many people in this room are secretly looking at Qu Xiuran. Most people in the cultivation world have heard of this child of the Qu family. Qu He's only son is domineering and beautiful, but this is the first time for Qu Xiuran to appear in such a place.
Soon it came to the part of the aptitude test, Qu He sat on the main seat of the hall, Qu Xiuran sat beside her, looked over one by one, and soon came to the half-demon.
It's similar to what Qu Xiu fueled, he can use spiritual energy and demon energy, but the two abilities are ordinary and not outstanding.
"Do you want to keep him?" Qu He asked Qu Xiuran, "If you stay, I'm afraid it will take some effort to make a breakthrough in the future."
"Half-demons are really rare. If you leave it to Zuo Ying, she should like it, and she will definitely be willing to let her take it with you."
The only thing he was interested in in this meeting was the half-demon. Now that the half-demon has also seen it, and confirmed that there is no outstanding strength, Qu Xiuran didn't want to wait any longer, and was about to get up and leave soon.
Before leaving, he noticed Qu Ling beside him, and suddenly paused again.
"Don't send people to Zuo Ying." He stroked the armrest of the chair with his fingers, looked down at the half-kneeling person in the middle of the hall, and only whispered to Qu He, "Send it to me."
Back to Qu's house is not like being in Zongmen, Qu Xiuran doesn't have to go to the school every day, he goes around by himself every day, and sometimes trains Qu Ling's ability.
The last time this person succeeded in controlling monsters was because there were many monsters at the border, and Qu Ling did not succeed every time. Many times the monsters were indifferent to his cries.
If Qu Xiuran wants to train Qu Ling, he naturally needs monsters to cooperate with Qu Ling's training, but apart from the Sheng family, the place where he sees the most monsters is around the monks, as the monks' spiritual pets.
But half-monsters are different, they can survive in the world of self-cultivation in a grand manner, and if Qu Ling can control half-monsters, it will be more useful than the ability to control monsters.
Qu Ling is obviously taller these days, maybe it is the natural advantage of monsters, this person's growth rate is amazing, just because Qu Xiuran took away the demon core, he doesn't look very strong, he still looks like a teenager .
At noon that day at the training ground, Qu Xiuran let the half-demon meet Qu Ling. He sat alone in the cave hiding from the sun, and let Qu Ling meet the half-demon by the way.
"What do you want him to do?" He has been able to speak complete words these days, but his words have no ups and downs, and sometimes they are not coherent.
Qu Ling didn't like that half-demon, although his eyes didn't change, Qu Xiuran could feel the man's emotions.
"Bring it back for your training, try to see if you can control him and let him take off his mask."
The two of them didn't avoid the half-demon during the whole conversation. The latter's hands were hanging by his side, and he didn't speak or move. This strange appearance made Qu Xiuran very curious about what he looked like under the mask.
"Give me a try here too."
Qu Ling would not resist Qu Xiuran's will, the training ground in the forest soon heard the cries of a fox, the half-demon only moved for a moment, raised his hand, but when his hand was about to touch his face, The head turned away.
The half-demon didn't move, Qu Ling looked at Qu Xiuran: "I can't control him."
"Try again."
Qu Ling then tried again, and this time it was similar to the last time. Just as he was about to take off his mask, the other party turned his head away.
"You asked me to join the sect because you wanted me to play this kind of boring training with him?"
The other party spoke suddenly, his voice was soft and soft.
He took off the mask in front of Qu Xiuran, the face underneath looked a bit strange, half of the face was too white, it looked like a dead person.
Both sides of the face look different.
Qu Xiuran felt that this half-demon looked familiar.
"What's your name?"
"Zheng Jiu."
"Have I seen you somewhere?"
There are many people involved with Qu Xiuran, but there are not many who can give him a little impression. It is normal for him to be unable to remember for a while.
"Never seen."
As a small person, he didn't need to waste time thinking about where he met him. Qu Xiuran only confessed: "From now on, you will come here every day when you come back from school, and train with Qu Ling."
Days passed day by day, and since the Sheng family was resolved, the surroundings have returned to calm, and nothing has happened again.
It's just that Fang's family has sent people to visit several times. After changing the head of the family, this family has not had any contact with other sects for a long time. This time, the contacts with Qu's family are also normal negotiations. when visiting.
Once Qu Xiuran also went to Fang's house with Qu He.
He only heard from Ji Tangsheng that the place had changed, and what it looked like, but Qu Xiuran had never seen it.
Qu Xiuran was in Fang's house when he first started practicing, and this is also the place where he lived for a while, and he has some special memories here.
The Fang family had many elders above the Nascent Soul stage. Although Father Fang's own strength was not strong, with these people by his side, the Fang family has always been able to maintain its position among several major families.
This time Fang's family was in the main hall, but Qu Xiuran didn't see them again.
These people should have been cleaned up by Tantai An.
This made Qu Xiuran feel even more strange. Tantai'an's cultivation is indeed good, but he has not yet reached the level of immortality. It is impossible for him to shake such a large Fang family by himself, or even uproot him.
While Qu Xiuran looked at him, he also looked at the person sitting at the head of the family. Tantai An used to like to wear white, and looked weak and fairy-like, but this time he changed a little bit.
He was dressed in black, sitting in a position admired by everyone, his feeling of frailty had been replaced by another temperament.
The person is still the same person, although it is not unrecognizable, but there always seems to be something wrong.
There seemed to be no one around Tantai An who dared to approach him. In fact, the atmosphere of the entire Fang family was a bit strangely silent. Even if no one expressed it, it could be seen that people were somewhat afraid of the new head of the family.
"How did you deal with the mistress of the Fang family?"
Qu He never likes to talk around corners. Outsiders believe Tantai An's words, but Qu He knows the grievances between Tantai An and the head of the family, and knows that Tantai An is also a normal person, and it is impossible to treat the person who framed him kindly. woman.
After returning from the presence of everyone in the main hall, only three or four people from the Qu family were left sitting in the side hall with Tantai An.
"Buried, did not torture her."
"There is only one person who should be tortured."
Qu Xiuran sat behind Qu He, his sitting posture was not dignified all the time, looking at the only Fang family in this room.
When Tantai An came to see Qu He, he didn't even bring anyone with him.
Even Qu He would keep Zuo Ying by his side at this time, so as not to be plotted against by Fang's family in case of any unexpected situation. I don't know if Tantai An is naive or confident enough. He only has one person to face Qu He. Someone who could kill him.
In the past, the Qu family and the Fang family were close, and Qu Heyou had memories of living in the Fang family, and also remembered how the second senior brother took care of Qu Xiuran when he was a child, and he has always had a good impression of Tantai An.
"It's better to get rid of Father Fang as soon as possible. If he runs out, it will be bad for your reputation."
Just like what Qu Xiuran thought, Tantai An didn't directly kill Fang's father, he probably caused the hemiplegia.
"I let him experience my mother's life over the years. His hands and feet were amputated, and he was raised with a group of livestock."
The expression on his face didn't change much when he talked about these things, as if he was just chatting casually about the recent situation: "At first he was not used to eating pig food, but maybe he realized later that the pig would probably eat him if he wasn't full."
"Where are the other elders?"
This time Tantai An didn't say anything, Qu Xiuran felt that this scene was very funny, Tantai An had completely changed, and he didn't want to put on the nasty appearance on his body anymore.
Qu Xiuran suddenly felt strongly that maybe Tantai An didn't intend to let go of anyone who had a grudge against him. He was more ambitious than Qu Xiuran imagined, and anyone who blocked his ambition would be dealt with. Lose.
And this naturally includes himself.
As for whether he or the Qu family took revenge, it's hard to say.
Qu Xiuran suddenly felt a burst of irritability, maybe he had made a wrong move, the Qu family without restraint was like a fish in water, while Tantai'an without restraint was equally dangerous.
In the past, Yuchiyuan and Qu He might have been there, but now Yuchiyuan has been abolished, and Qu He is alone. Qu Xiuran is not sure if she can beat Tantai'an.
Qu Xiuran didn't want to listen any more, he stood up from his chair, the room was originally quite quiet, but as he stood up, everyone's eyes turned to him in an instant.
Naturally, Tantai An was also included.
Qu Xiuran rubbed his forehead: "I'll go for a walk."
He took Qu Ling away.
The place he is most familiar with in the Fang family is the training ground. When Qu Xiuran was young, he stayed in the training ground all year round, practicing day after day. He wanted to surpass everyone and fight with those children who were much older than him.
At that time, he had wounds on his face all the year round, and Tantai An would help him deal with these wounds. Sometimes he got into trouble, and Qu He couldn't find Qu Xiuran, so he always went to Tantai An, Tantai An Then help him find Qu Xiuran.
This should be the corner of Fang's house that Qu Xiuran is most familiar with, but it hasn't changed much. The training ground is still the same training ground, but there are no people there.
Qu Xiuran doesn't think of this place often, for him there is nothing worth remembering here.
Of course it happened in the previous life.
"Little master, Tantai'an's book boy gave me this thing just now."
Shi Li handed Qu Xiuran a piece of talisman paper. Qu Xiuran opened it and looked at it. The side hall was painted with cinnabar on it. It burned up the moment it was opened, and then fell to the ground, leaving only a line of words.
"Come here alone."
You can guess who stayed here without thinking too much, Shi Li asked cautiously: "Do you want to go there, little master?"
"Why don't you go?" Qu Xiu smiled, crushing the ashes of the talisman paper with his palm.
Of course, he would not completely listen to Tantai An's words. As for the meeting, as long as Tantai An is not dead, he will see him sooner or later.
The study room in the side hall is very quiet, and there is no one here, it seems that Tantai An is not used to having people around him, not even a book boy guarding the door.
Qu Xiuran stepped in and felt the coldness in the room.
Tan Taian was sitting in front of the desk, wearing a white shirt, with long hair hanging loose, the sense of refinement on his body came back again, the momentary trance made people feel that he hadn't changed from before, he was still the second senior brother in the sect .
The moment the other party raised his eyes to look at Qu Xiuran, Qu Xiuran felt a sense of oppression, although Tantai An's eyes did not change.
"If you don't have anything to say, what do you want me to do here?" Qu Xiuran still looked the same, no matter who this person was, he didn't seem to care much about Tantai An's attitude.
Tantai'an suddenly smiled at him, this person always has a cold personality, but it is rare that he loves to laugh like this, not only does he not find it pleasing to the eye, but he is a bit cold and cold.
"Qu He trusts me very much."
Whether Qu He will trust him completely depends on Qu Xiuran, as long as Qu Xiuran and Qu He talk about the danger of Tantai An, Qu He will naturally know how to beware of Tantai An.
But when Tan Taian said this, his original intention was not that Qu He trusted him so much, but that he was threatening Qu Xiuran.
"So? Second Senior Brother looks like this, do you want me to make up for you and apologize to you?"
It was as if he had heard a big joke. Qu Xiuran not only didn't back down at this time, but he approached Tantai'an, bent down and looked at the man: "Second Senior Brother, what do you want me to do, so what if I notice you?" ? How does the second senior brother want me to compensate?"
He bent down slightly, and lowered his head in front of Tantai'an: "Senior brother in the previous life killed me, how strong was his cultivation? He was able to clean up the entire Fang family so quickly."
The latter finally had some reaction, he frowned, and listened to Qu Xiuran continue to say: "Senior Brother is not the only one who remembers the events of the last life, since we have to settle the matter, shouldn't we also make it clear?"
He deliberately brought out the dream of the system, and induced Tantai An to be a reborn himself, which really made the other party shake for a moment.
"Brother, who owes more to whom?"
Wanting to use the events of the previous life to make Tantai An feel guilty.
But Tantai An didn't answer Qu Xiuran, as if he was shaken only for a moment, the way he calmly looked at Qu Xiuran made Qu Xiuran feel that he had seen through all his lies.
Qu Xiuran left him again and straightened up:
"It's really troublesome to look like you are grinding and chirping. If you want to fight, do it quickly. No matter if it's the Qu family or whoever you are with, you will win or lose."
"Okay." Tantai An only said this, and suddenly stood up, Qu Xiuran subconsciously took precautions, used his spiritual energy, grabbed his rapier, but suddenly lost his voice the next moment.
Not only did the rapier not move towards Tantai An's direction, it even reached his own neck.
He felt that his hands and feet were all out of his control, and the attack he had planned to launch had lost all strength. The opponent's figure was getting closer and closer to him, and the next moment he grabbed his neck.
Qu Xiuran snorted, and was lifted from the ground. The man's hands were so big that they could almost completely wrap his neck, and his thumb could even touch his chin.
His cultivation was not inferior to that of Yu Chiyuan in his heyday. Qu Xiuran's hands and feet were hanging down beside his body without his control. He felt a burst of suffocation, but he still couldn't pull those hands off, and he couldn't even lift himself up. hands struggling.
Breathing gradually tightened, and his strength became weaker and weaker, Tantai An approached him, and finally spoke in front of this person: "This is my ability."
A puppeteer who manipulates humans, Tantai An is a puppeteer who can manipulate humans.
He had seen records about puppet masters in a pamphlet, but it didn't say that puppeteer masters could manipulate humans, they usually only controlled monsters.
Qu Xiuran had no idea how this ability was formed, he was gently placed on the ground by Tantai An, and he couldn't help breathing in, while the man squatted in front of him, watching him quietly.
The body under control could only feel a sense of powerlessness and weakness. Qu Xiuran wanted to stand up several times, but even though his brain gave instructions to his limbs, his hands and feet did not obey.
It is also the ability to manipulate other things. Compared with Qu Ling, Tantai An is obviously much more mature and dangerous. He controls Qu Xiuran's hands and feet. Eyes on the person opposite.
Tantai'an was still the same Tantai'an, his face was still a little sick, he gently raised his hand to tidy up Qu Xiuran's messy hair little by little, at a distance between the two of them, Qu Xiuran stared at him with resentment. Tantai looks at it.
Tantai An just apologized softly to him, and then helped him tidy up his clothes before saying:
"I want to beat the Qu family. You still have one year to tell you that these are not provocations. No matter whether the people who survive today are the Sheng family or the Zhou family, I will destroy them the same."
"Just to tell you about it."
Not only did he tell Qu Xiuran when he was going to swallow the Qu family, but he even told Qu Xiuran clearly about his ability.
He also expressed his meaning very clearly. Attacking the Qu family was not to avenge Qu Xiuran, but on the contrary, Tantai An was very ambitious. No matter who was opposing the Fang family today, he would eventually want to destroy him. Because it was Qu Xiuran, it only took a year.
Tantai An has never revealed his abilities to anyone, and only told Qu Xiuran, who is his opponent.
This is not a provocation, but an opportunity for Qu Xiuran, an opportunity for the Qu family to prepare.
Nothing is more important than his ambition.
When Qu Xiuran was about to rest, Tantai An finally let him stand up from the ground, maybe the restrained Qu Xiuran would communicate better, so he let Qu Xiuran leave the room by himself.
Things have developed in an uncontrollable direction.
Qu Xiuran thought that Tantai An would be difficult to deal with, but he never thought that Tantai An's ability was to manipulate human beings.
This is a very, very difficult problem for him, which means that once the two families formally clash, no matter how they fight, it is impossible for the monks of the Qu family to win against the Fang family, and all the monks who are under control cannot fight.
Qu Xiuran himself had already experienced being controlled, and he was unable to take any action at all.
He told Qu He about this, and the latter understood Qu Xiuran's words just by hearing it. Qu He was also very aware of Tan Tai'an's ambitions, and knew that this would happen one day, but he didn't expect it either. This man has the ability.
"Tantai'an, the changes have been great."
"Maybe nothing has changed."
Qu Xiuran recalled the system's warning to him at the beginning. The system said that Tantai'an was a very dangerous person, and he was very different from before.
At that time, Qu Xiuran only thought it was about ability, and he finally understood the meaning of the system after he realized that maybe this person's character had become what he is now from the very beginning, but he just pretended too well. Even Qu Xiuran lied to him.
"What can you do?"
Qu He was much calmer: "Is there any way, only when we really fight can we know whether we can survive."
"You can only take risks."
Qu Xiuran stopped for a while, and had no choice but to respond. For them, it is estimated that monks are not enough to fight in front of Tantai An. Perhaps the bigger chance lies with Qu Ling. Since they can't control it, the best way is of course Use monsters to fight the opponent's monks.
But this is not an easy task. Monster beasts are much more difficult to control than humans. They have certain wisdom but do not obey discipline.
In the next half a year, Qu Xiuran would check on the training progress every now and then. Occasionally, he would notice that Qu Ling was injured, but since this beauty-loving stinky fox grew up, he seemed to have some inexplicable stubbornness.
He only asked Qu Xiuran to ignore his injuries, which were all left over from the battle with the half-demon.
After the eyes of the other party faded from the previous greenness, they became more cold like monsters, but they were still very beautiful. Qu Xiuran sat in the study studying talismans, and the man sat not far away to apply medicine to the wound.
When the wound is finished, the other party will approach him and help him squeeze his shoulder.
When standing behind and talking to Qu Xiuran, he could smell the scent of medicine on this person.
Although Qu Ling is much taller than before, these days, Qu Xiuran has already gotten used to him being by his side, and even Qu Ling and Shi Li have similar status, so Qu Xiuran will not feel uncomfortable.
At night, candles were lit beside the table, and Qu Ling bent slightly from behind to look at the words written by Qu Xiuran: "It's beautiful."
Qu Xiuran's handwriting is beautiful, although he often does not write well, but as long as he wants to write well, the handwriting is still very beautiful.
The voice of his evaluation was right next to Qu Xiuran's ear, and Qu Xiuran did not turn his head: "Want to learn?"
The latter nodded.
"Then go to school."
Qu Xiuran pushed the person away: "Stick to me all day, you won't learn anything."
Qu Ling didn't like going to school, and getting along with other students didn't seem to be more attractive to him than being around Qu Xiuran.
Seeing that Qu Xiuran was sleepy, he followed behind Qu Xiuran, his hands gently wrapped around Qu Xiuran's body, just like when he was a big dog, Qu Xiuran never resisted the approach of a big dog.
Sometimes, when Qu Xiuran was really sleepy or unwilling to move because of comfort, he would not reject the approach of Qu Ling who was in human form.
He gently put his cheek close to the man's back, feeling the fragrance and heartbeat of Qu Xiuran's body.
No one can be so close to Qu Xiuran, but he can.
Qu Xiuran's back is very thin, and he usually doesn't wear too many clothes when he is in his own yard, so he can feel his body temperature.
Although you need to squat your body halfway.
Qu Ling stood up slightly, and his breath would fall on Qu Xiuran's neck.
Many times when this person fell asleep, Qu Ling would secretly touch the skin there. He lowered his head, and under the dim candlelight, he seemed to be kissing Qu Xiuran's neck, wanting to touch it with his lips. In the end, he didn't dare to go any further.
The candles flickered, and the shadows cast by the candlelight hit the wall to form a silhouette of the two intimately.
He inserted/inserted his fingers into Qu Xiuran's hair, soft.
But at this moment, Qu Xiuran suddenly turned around, grabbed his neck, and pulled him to his side.
As if disturbed, Qu Xiuran looked into his eyes and tilted his head slightly. Compared with his soft hair, this man's eyes were sharp enough. Qu Xiuran looked too dangerous at this time.
Qu Xiuran is not sleepy today, obviously he doesn't like his approaching, as long as he hums a little to show weakness at this time, Qu Xiuran will let him go.
Sure enough, Qu Xiuran patted his face with the back of his hand, and the tall young man lowered his head slightly in front of him, as if he could be slaughtered by him at any time.
Qu Xiuran let go of his hand: "Go back."
When he said this, Qu Ling knew that it was impossible for him to live with Qu Xiuran again that day.
Early the next morning, Qu Xiuran met Ji Tangsheng in the study, who looked very tired.
"Others are red when they make money, but the Ji family seems to have emptied themselves after making money, and they are tired of counting money."
The amount of money the family has made in the past six months is uncountable, and of course it has dragged Qu Xiuran's blessings, but Ji Tangsheng sighed: "I am an ordinary person, and nothing can make me worry about anything except money."
"Then what happened to you?"
"There are monsters making troubles near my bank, and I have lost a lot. Not only my bank, but also monsters everywhere in other places." He paused, "Qu Xiuran, you didn't let Qu Ling run away. go out?"
"The Fang family hasn't come to trouble you these days?"
"Come to look for it."
Qu Xiuran told Ji Tangsheng everything about Fang's family. Unlike his imagined reaction, this person didn't seem too surprised.
"This way I can finally understand why he was able to clean up Fang's family so quickly."
"As long as you control them to kill each other, no matter how powerful they are, they will fall apart."
Even Ji Tangsheng has no way to deal with these people.
"But this person will not kill you because he has some old friendship with your mother, right?"
Qu Xiuran pinched his fingers: "It's kind of disgusting."
Living under the fence of others, especially under the control of Tantai An, made him feel very disgusted.
He has found the system more than once in the past six months, and asked the system to help him find a way to deal with Tantai An's ability, but the results obtained by the system are similar to Qu Xiuran's idea.
The only way that people can accept a little bit is to manipulate the monsters through Qu Ling.
But for the current Qu Ling, this is really impossible. It has been half a year, and this person is a little useless in trying to control the half-demon.
"It's better to go to the border for the rest of the time. You will definitely not be able to make Qu Ling make much progress here." Ji Tangsheng suggested, "After going there, maybe things can be resolved faster."
The last time Qu Ling controlled the monsters in a large area was also at the border, and now he can quickly adapt to the habit of fighting with monsters with this person.
"If you leave, I'm afraid you won't be able to hide it from anyone."
This is what Qu Xiuran is most concerned about. When Qu's family goes to the border, everyone will know that they have something to do with monsters. By then, their reputation in the cultivation world will be worsened.
"So these years, there have been monsters entering the city to attack one after another. I don't think it's easy."
Ji Tangsheng said: "The more such things happen, the more people will hate monsters. If you use monsters to deal with Fang's family, your Qu family will become a target of public criticism."
"Then what should we do? Since you have come to find me, there is nothing you can do, right?" The person on the other side clearly seemed to be indifferent to anything, but every time when Qu Xiuran explained the ins and outs , Ji Tangsheng can always come up with his own solutions.
So after the incident came out, Qu Xiuran didn't even contact Ji Tangsheng immediately, because he also knew very well that if Ji Tangsheng had a solution, he probably didn't need to find it himself. Ji Tangsheng would come to him and propose a solution.
Since this person came to find him today, it is impossible to let this matter become a dead move.
"I will also go to the border during this time, and do some small business."
"You can take Qu Ling with me."
Qu Xiuran frowned: "What business are you going to the border for?"
"Go to Zhou's house to collect the bill."
He held Qu Xiuran's hand, his palm was cold, and put it on his slightly tired face: "You see, my shop was smashed by monsters, and the loss was heavy. The money owed by the Zhou family to the Sheng family If I don’t return it all the time, can I still sleep?”
Qu Xiuran patted the man's face: "So I was the one who found you..."
"The thug."
Ji Tangsheng also smiled as if he was separated by a layer of fog, but his somewhat cunning appearance made people realize that he was a businessman, he would always find a chance to make a fortune from anyone who was in trouble with anyone. .
"But you can't take a free ride, you have to give me some benefits."
In the days that followed, Ji Tangsheng and Qu Xiuran returned to the way they were when they first met a few years ago. They went to the casino all day, either to gamble or to collect debts.
However, Qu Xiuran helped Ji Tangsheng smash a few shops when he had nothing to do. As a result, there were soon rumors that Ji Tangsheng's Ji family was short of money, and the banknotes and magic weapons stored in the bank might not be able to turn over.
The affairs of the bank are all big things, and things are spread to ten, ten to hundreds, and when Ji Tangsheng feels that the atmosphere is about the same, he takes Qu Xiuran and Qu Ling to the border, and deliberately releases some news that he is going to the Zhou family to collect debts. No one will doubt it.
It was evening when the three of them set off, and Qu He stood at the door of his house to see Qu Xiuran go, and asked him to take away one of them, Zuo Ying.
She put all her confidants by Qu Xiuran's side, and also hoped that Qu Xiuran would be safe.
Qu He usually wouldn't talk much to him, but Qu Xiuran could feel the emotion in it.
Sitting in the car, Ji Tangsheng ate grapes, stretched out his head and greeted Qu He: "Don't worry, Auntie, I will take good care of Qu Ye."
Qu He hummed: "I told Qu Ye to take good care of you, don't enter the stomach of monsters."
Qu He never liked Ji Tangsheng before, especially when he always took Qu Xiuran to the casino in his early years.
At that time, Qu Xiuran was young, and Ji Tangsheng could be said to have met the most adult things. Even if Qu He didn't live with Qu Xiuran at that time, he had heard of their glorious deeds.
At that time, Tantai An was the young master of Jiaojiao in everyone's eyes, while Ji Tangsheng was completely opposite, ignorant, eating, drinking and having fun all day long, bringing Qu Xiuran to the scene, Qu Xiuran was indeed like his wife.
I'm afraid that if any child plays with this person, the mother will not feel at ease.
It is true that Ji Tangsheng doesn't have any friends around him. There are quite a few people who want to play with him. After all, he is the richest merchant in the cultivation world and has a great reputation outside. None of the second-generation ancestors in the cultivation world don't want to go to his side. Yes, but Qu Xiuran was the only one who could really be with him all day long.
Ji Tangsheng has a very strange personality. He has always only liked interesting people, and he only wants to associate with interesting people. But when he first met Qu Xiuran, he thought Qu Xiuran was very interesting.
He is so arrogant and conceited that people hate him, but he is liked by almost everyone around him who knows him well. There is no doubt that Qu Xiuran is a special person.
At that time, Tantai An took good care of Qu Xiuran, but Ji Tangsheng often teased Qu Xiuran when he first met him.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Ji Tangsheng and Tantai An's thoughts were completely reversed.
How much Ji Tangsheng has helped Qu Xiuran over the years, Qu He should know best.
This road is not easy, the road to the border is long, and the closer the destination is, the worse the weather will be.
Qu Xiuran, Ji Tangsheng, and Qu Ling were all in the same carriage. In fact, the fastest way was of course to fly with the sword, but neither Ji Tangsheng nor Qu Ling knew it, so they could only use the carriage.
Ji Tangsheng was the most expensively dressed among this group of people. He was the only one who looked like a peacock all day long. Even if his face was tired, he was always well dressed. He leaned against the window, lazily. loose appearance:
"This is the master next to your mother?" She looked at Zuo Ying curiously, "It really doesn't look like the rumored killer."
"She can screw your head off while sitting still."
Ji Tangsheng laughed dryly: "It seems that there is hope for going to Zhou's house to collect debts this time."
After greeting everyone, the group officially started their journey.
Qu Ling has been sleeping next to Qu Xiuran. Since Ji Tangsheng came, this person has never left Qu Xiuran's side. The memory of going to the border is not good for him, but since Qu Xiuran is going manage
The following days became much more stable. Qu Xiuran left the sect and returned to Qu's house, and Qu Ling naturally went back with him.
Qu Xiuran is a very careful person, and he will not stay with him if he can't recognize the species of monsters. As early as the day he picked up Qu Ling and returned, he had already contacted Ji Tangsheng and asked him to help him identify the monsters kind of.
It took Ji Tangsheng a long time to tell him the result. He told Qu Xiuran that the monster had a feeling for Linglong.
It's just that Qu Xiuran at that time couldn't trust Qu Ling. No matter how you say it, this guy was not human, and it didn't even take long for him to bring him back.
But since then, Qu Xiuran has already started to have a plan, and he was able to implement it step by step thanks to the help of the system, and thanks to Qu Ling's obedience.
After poaching away the demon pill, he completely trusted Qu Ling. Qu Ling gave up his cultivation and had to rely on Qu Xiuran. Qu Xiuran used the other party's exquisite heart to frame Yu Chiyuan.
After the matter was over, he brought Qu Ling back to Qu's house.
Now the two largest cultivation families are the Fang family and the Qu family. Qu Xiuran wants to train his subordinates, just like Qu He trained Zuo Ying back then, he also needs people who can be used by him.
The Sheng family and the Zhou family have declined one after another, and the Tianyan Sect is also going downhill after changing its suzerain. Most of the aspiring monks in the cultivation world have defected to the Fang family and the Qu family. During this period, Qu He has accepted many talented disciples.
Qu Xiuran once went to visit, and the monks who went to Fang's house and Qu's house were very different.
Just from appearance, those who go to Fang's house are usually clean and upright, Ling Ran is upright, dressed in white clothes, and holding a sword, while the paintings of Qu's house are more varied, some with axes and hammers, and some There are a large number of burn marks on the skin, some of which look more like demons.
In addition to humans and monsters in the realm of comprehension, there is also a kind of half-demon. Compared with monsters, they are more like monsters. They are usually the children of humans and monsters. Cultivating together, they have great talents, and the top monsters also have strong abilities.
On the day Qu Xiuran went to visit, there happened to be a half-demon at the scene, wearing a fox mask and wrapped in black cloth, standing thin and thin in the crowd, Qu Ling could smell that person was not very good just passing by. Satisfied.
He pointed to Qu Xiuran, and Qu Xiuran followed his line of sight for a while, and the other party was obviously sharper than ordinary humans, and looked up at Qu Xiuran.
Many people in this room are secretly looking at Qu Xiuran. Most people in the cultivation world have heard of this child of the Qu family. Qu He's only son is domineering and beautiful, but this is the first time for Qu Xiuran to appear in such a place.
Soon it came to the part of the aptitude test, Qu He sat on the main seat of the hall, Qu Xiuran sat beside her, looked over one by one, and soon came to the half-demon.
It's similar to what Qu Xiu fueled, he can use spiritual energy and demon energy, but the two abilities are ordinary and not outstanding.
"Do you want to keep him?" Qu He asked Qu Xiuran, "If you stay, I'm afraid it will take some effort to make a breakthrough in the future."
"Half-demons are really rare. If you leave it to Zuo Ying, she should like it, and she will definitely be willing to let her take it with you."
The only thing he was interested in in this meeting was the half-demon. Now that the half-demon has also seen it, and confirmed that there is no outstanding strength, Qu Xiuran didn't want to wait any longer, and was about to get up and leave soon.
Before leaving, he noticed Qu Ling beside him, and suddenly paused again.
"Don't send people to Zuo Ying." He stroked the armrest of the chair with his fingers, looked down at the half-kneeling person in the middle of the hall, and only whispered to Qu He, "Send it to me."
Back to Qu's house is not like being in Zongmen, Qu Xiuran doesn't have to go to the school every day, he goes around by himself every day, and sometimes trains Qu Ling's ability.
The last time this person succeeded in controlling monsters was because there were many monsters at the border, and Qu Ling did not succeed every time. Many times the monsters were indifferent to his cries.
If Qu Xiuran wants to train Qu Ling, he naturally needs monsters to cooperate with Qu Ling's training, but apart from the Sheng family, the place where he sees the most monsters is around the monks, as the monks' spiritual pets.
But half-monsters are different, they can survive in the world of self-cultivation in a grand manner, and if Qu Ling can control half-monsters, it will be more useful than the ability to control monsters.
Qu Ling is obviously taller these days, maybe it is the natural advantage of monsters, this person's growth rate is amazing, just because Qu Xiuran took away the demon core, he doesn't look very strong, he still looks like a teenager .
At noon that day at the training ground, Qu Xiuran let the half-demon meet Qu Ling. He sat alone in the cave hiding from the sun, and let Qu Ling meet the half-demon by the way.
"What do you want him to do?" He has been able to speak complete words these days, but his words have no ups and downs, and sometimes they are not coherent.
Qu Ling didn't like that half-demon, although his eyes didn't change, Qu Xiuran could feel the man's emotions.
"Bring it back for your training, try to see if you can control him and let him take off his mask."
The two of them didn't avoid the half-demon during the whole conversation. The latter's hands were hanging by his side, and he didn't speak or move. This strange appearance made Qu Xiuran very curious about what he looked like under the mask.
"Give me a try here too."
Qu Ling would not resist Qu Xiuran's will, the training ground in the forest soon heard the cries of a fox, the half-demon only moved for a moment, raised his hand, but when his hand was about to touch his face, The head turned away.
The half-demon didn't move, Qu Ling looked at Qu Xiuran: "I can't control him."
"Try again."
Qu Ling then tried again, and this time it was similar to the last time. Just as he was about to take off his mask, the other party turned his head away.
"You asked me to join the sect because you wanted me to play this kind of boring training with him?"
The other party spoke suddenly, his voice was soft and soft.
He took off the mask in front of Qu Xiuran, the face underneath looked a bit strange, half of the face was too white, it looked like a dead person.
Both sides of the face look different.
Qu Xiuran felt that this half-demon looked familiar.
"What's your name?"
"Zheng Jiu."
"Have I seen you somewhere?"
There are many people involved with Qu Xiuran, but there are not many who can give him a little impression. It is normal for him to be unable to remember for a while.
"Never seen."
As a small person, he didn't need to waste time thinking about where he met him. Qu Xiuran only confessed: "From now on, you will come here every day when you come back from school, and train with Qu Ling."
Days passed day by day, and since the Sheng family was resolved, the surroundings have returned to calm, and nothing has happened again.
It's just that Fang's family has sent people to visit several times. After changing the head of the family, this family has not had any contact with other sects for a long time. This time, the contacts with Qu's family are also normal negotiations. when visiting.
Once Qu Xiuran also went to Fang's house with Qu He.
He only heard from Ji Tangsheng that the place had changed, and what it looked like, but Qu Xiuran had never seen it.
Qu Xiuran was in Fang's house when he first started practicing, and this is also the place where he lived for a while, and he has some special memories here.
The Fang family had many elders above the Nascent Soul stage. Although Father Fang's own strength was not strong, with these people by his side, the Fang family has always been able to maintain its position among several major families.
This time Fang's family was in the main hall, but Qu Xiuran didn't see them again.
These people should have been cleaned up by Tantai An.
This made Qu Xiuran feel even more strange. Tantai'an's cultivation is indeed good, but he has not yet reached the level of immortality. It is impossible for him to shake such a large Fang family by himself, or even uproot him.
While Qu Xiuran looked at him, he also looked at the person sitting at the head of the family. Tantai An used to like to wear white, and looked weak and fairy-like, but this time he changed a little bit.
He was dressed in black, sitting in a position admired by everyone, his feeling of frailty had been replaced by another temperament.
The person is still the same person, although it is not unrecognizable, but there always seems to be something wrong.
There seemed to be no one around Tantai An who dared to approach him. In fact, the atmosphere of the entire Fang family was a bit strangely silent. Even if no one expressed it, it could be seen that people were somewhat afraid of the new head of the family.
"How did you deal with the mistress of the Fang family?"
Qu He never likes to talk around corners. Outsiders believe Tantai An's words, but Qu He knows the grievances between Tantai An and the head of the family, and knows that Tantai An is also a normal person, and it is impossible to treat the person who framed him kindly. woman.
After returning from the presence of everyone in the main hall, only three or four people from the Qu family were left sitting in the side hall with Tantai An.
"Buried, did not torture her."
"There is only one person who should be tortured."
Qu Xiuran sat behind Qu He, his sitting posture was not dignified all the time, looking at the only Fang family in this room.
When Tantai An came to see Qu He, he didn't even bring anyone with him.
Even Qu He would keep Zuo Ying by his side at this time, so as not to be plotted against by Fang's family in case of any unexpected situation. I don't know if Tantai An is naive or confident enough. He only has one person to face Qu He. Someone who could kill him.
In the past, the Qu family and the Fang family were close, and Qu Heyou had memories of living in the Fang family, and also remembered how the second senior brother took care of Qu Xiuran when he was a child, and he has always had a good impression of Tantai An.
"It's better to get rid of Father Fang as soon as possible. If he runs out, it will be bad for your reputation."
Just like what Qu Xiuran thought, Tantai An didn't directly kill Fang's father, he probably caused the hemiplegia.
"I let him experience my mother's life over the years. His hands and feet were amputated, and he was raised with a group of livestock."
The expression on his face didn't change much when he talked about these things, as if he was just chatting casually about the recent situation: "At first he was not used to eating pig food, but maybe he realized later that the pig would probably eat him if he wasn't full."
"Where are the other elders?"
This time Tantai An didn't say anything, Qu Xiuran felt that this scene was very funny, Tantai An had completely changed, and he didn't want to put on the nasty appearance on his body anymore.
Qu Xiuran suddenly felt strongly that maybe Tantai An didn't intend to let go of anyone who had a grudge against him. He was more ambitious than Qu Xiuran imagined, and anyone who blocked his ambition would be dealt with. Lose.
And this naturally includes himself.
As for whether he or the Qu family took revenge, it's hard to say.
Qu Xiuran suddenly felt a burst of irritability, maybe he had made a wrong move, the Qu family without restraint was like a fish in water, while Tantai'an without restraint was equally dangerous.
In the past, Yuchiyuan and Qu He might have been there, but now Yuchiyuan has been abolished, and Qu He is alone. Qu Xiuran is not sure if she can beat Tantai'an.
Qu Xiuran didn't want to listen any more, he stood up from his chair, the room was originally quite quiet, but as he stood up, everyone's eyes turned to him in an instant.
Naturally, Tantai An was also included.
Qu Xiuran rubbed his forehead: "I'll go for a walk."
He took Qu Ling away.
The place he is most familiar with in the Fang family is the training ground. When Qu Xiuran was young, he stayed in the training ground all year round, practicing day after day. He wanted to surpass everyone and fight with those children who were much older than him.
At that time, he had wounds on his face all the year round, and Tantai An would help him deal with these wounds. Sometimes he got into trouble, and Qu He couldn't find Qu Xiuran, so he always went to Tantai An, Tantai An Then help him find Qu Xiuran.
This should be the corner of Fang's house that Qu Xiuran is most familiar with, but it hasn't changed much. The training ground is still the same training ground, but there are no people there.
Qu Xiuran doesn't think of this place often, for him there is nothing worth remembering here.
Of course it happened in the previous life.
"Little master, Tantai'an's book boy gave me this thing just now."
Shi Li handed Qu Xiuran a piece of talisman paper. Qu Xiuran opened it and looked at it. The side hall was painted with cinnabar on it. It burned up the moment it was opened, and then fell to the ground, leaving only a line of words.
"Come here alone."
You can guess who stayed here without thinking too much, Shi Li asked cautiously: "Do you want to go there, little master?"
"Why don't you go?" Qu Xiu smiled, crushing the ashes of the talisman paper with his palm.
Of course, he would not completely listen to Tantai An's words. As for the meeting, as long as Tantai An is not dead, he will see him sooner or later.
The study room in the side hall is very quiet, and there is no one here, it seems that Tantai An is not used to having people around him, not even a book boy guarding the door.
Qu Xiuran stepped in and felt the coldness in the room.
Tan Taian was sitting in front of the desk, wearing a white shirt, with long hair hanging loose, the sense of refinement on his body came back again, the momentary trance made people feel that he hadn't changed from before, he was still the second senior brother in the sect .
The moment the other party raised his eyes to look at Qu Xiuran, Qu Xiuran felt a sense of oppression, although Tantai An's eyes did not change.
"If you don't have anything to say, what do you want me to do here?" Qu Xiuran still looked the same, no matter who this person was, he didn't seem to care much about Tantai An's attitude.
Tantai'an suddenly smiled at him, this person always has a cold personality, but it is rare that he loves to laugh like this, not only does he not find it pleasing to the eye, but he is a bit cold and cold.
"Qu He trusts me very much."
Whether Qu He will trust him completely depends on Qu Xiuran, as long as Qu Xiuran and Qu He talk about the danger of Tantai An, Qu He will naturally know how to beware of Tantai An.
But when Tan Taian said this, his original intention was not that Qu He trusted him so much, but that he was threatening Qu Xiuran.
"So? Second Senior Brother looks like this, do you want me to make up for you and apologize to you?"
It was as if he had heard a big joke. Qu Xiuran not only didn't back down at this time, but he approached Tantai'an, bent down and looked at the man: "Second Senior Brother, what do you want me to do, so what if I notice you?" ? How does the second senior brother want me to compensate?"
He bent down slightly, and lowered his head in front of Tantai'an: "Senior brother in the previous life killed me, how strong was his cultivation? He was able to clean up the entire Fang family so quickly."
The latter finally had some reaction, he frowned, and listened to Qu Xiuran continue to say: "Senior Brother is not the only one who remembers the events of the last life, since we have to settle the matter, shouldn't we also make it clear?"
He deliberately brought out the dream of the system, and induced Tantai An to be a reborn himself, which really made the other party shake for a moment.
"Brother, who owes more to whom?"
Wanting to use the events of the previous life to make Tantai An feel guilty.
But Tantai An didn't answer Qu Xiuran, as if he was shaken only for a moment, the way he calmly looked at Qu Xiuran made Qu Xiuran feel that he had seen through all his lies.
Qu Xiuran left him again and straightened up:
"It's really troublesome to look like you are grinding and chirping. If you want to fight, do it quickly. No matter if it's the Qu family or whoever you are with, you will win or lose."
"Okay." Tantai An only said this, and suddenly stood up, Qu Xiuran subconsciously took precautions, used his spiritual energy, grabbed his rapier, but suddenly lost his voice the next moment.
Not only did the rapier not move towards Tantai An's direction, it even reached his own neck.
He felt that his hands and feet were all out of his control, and the attack he had planned to launch had lost all strength. The opponent's figure was getting closer and closer to him, and the next moment he grabbed his neck.
Qu Xiuran snorted, and was lifted from the ground. The man's hands were so big that they could almost completely wrap his neck, and his thumb could even touch his chin.
His cultivation was not inferior to that of Yu Chiyuan in his heyday. Qu Xiuran's hands and feet were hanging down beside his body without his control. He felt a burst of suffocation, but he still couldn't pull those hands off, and he couldn't even lift himself up. hands struggling.
Breathing gradually tightened, and his strength became weaker and weaker, Tantai An approached him, and finally spoke in front of this person: "This is my ability."
A puppeteer who manipulates humans, Tantai An is a puppeteer who can manipulate humans.
He had seen records about puppet masters in a pamphlet, but it didn't say that puppeteer masters could manipulate humans, they usually only controlled monsters.
Qu Xiuran had no idea how this ability was formed, he was gently placed on the ground by Tantai An, and he couldn't help breathing in, while the man squatted in front of him, watching him quietly.
The body under control could only feel a sense of powerlessness and weakness. Qu Xiuran wanted to stand up several times, but even though his brain gave instructions to his limbs, his hands and feet did not obey.
It is also the ability to manipulate other things. Compared with Qu Ling, Tantai An is obviously much more mature and dangerous. He controls Qu Xiuran's hands and feet. Eyes on the person opposite.
Tantai'an was still the same Tantai'an, his face was still a little sick, he gently raised his hand to tidy up Qu Xiuran's messy hair little by little, at a distance between the two of them, Qu Xiuran stared at him with resentment. Tantai looks at it.
Tantai An just apologized softly to him, and then helped him tidy up his clothes before saying:
"I want to beat the Qu family. You still have one year to tell you that these are not provocations. No matter whether the people who survive today are the Sheng family or the Zhou family, I will destroy them the same."
"Just to tell you about it."
Not only did he tell Qu Xiuran when he was going to swallow the Qu family, but he even told Qu Xiuran clearly about his ability.
He also expressed his meaning very clearly. Attacking the Qu family was not to avenge Qu Xiuran, but on the contrary, Tantai An was very ambitious. No matter who was opposing the Fang family today, he would eventually want to destroy him. Because it was Qu Xiuran, it only took a year.
Tantai An has never revealed his abilities to anyone, and only told Qu Xiuran, who is his opponent.
This is not a provocation, but an opportunity for Qu Xiuran, an opportunity for the Qu family to prepare.
Nothing is more important than his ambition.
When Qu Xiuran was about to rest, Tantai An finally let him stand up from the ground, maybe the restrained Qu Xiuran would communicate better, so he let Qu Xiuran leave the room by himself.
Things have developed in an uncontrollable direction.
Qu Xiuran thought that Tantai An would be difficult to deal with, but he never thought that Tantai An's ability was to manipulate human beings.
This is a very, very difficult problem for him, which means that once the two families formally clash, no matter how they fight, it is impossible for the monks of the Qu family to win against the Fang family, and all the monks who are under control cannot fight.
Qu Xiuran himself had already experienced being controlled, and he was unable to take any action at all.
He told Qu He about this, and the latter understood Qu Xiuran's words just by hearing it. Qu He was also very aware of Tan Tai'an's ambitions, and knew that this would happen one day, but he didn't expect it either. This man has the ability.
"Tantai'an, the changes have been great."
"Maybe nothing has changed."
Qu Xiuran recalled the system's warning to him at the beginning. The system said that Tantai'an was a very dangerous person, and he was very different from before.
At that time, Qu Xiuran only thought it was about ability, and he finally understood the meaning of the system after he realized that maybe this person's character had become what he is now from the very beginning, but he just pretended too well. Even Qu Xiuran lied to him.
"What can you do?"
Qu He was much calmer: "Is there any way, only when we really fight can we know whether we can survive."
"You can only take risks."
Qu Xiuran stopped for a while, and had no choice but to respond. For them, it is estimated that monks are not enough to fight in front of Tantai An. Perhaps the bigger chance lies with Qu Ling. Since they can't control it, the best way is of course Use monsters to fight the opponent's monks.
But this is not an easy task. Monster beasts are much more difficult to control than humans. They have certain wisdom but do not obey discipline.
In the next half a year, Qu Xiuran would check on the training progress every now and then. Occasionally, he would notice that Qu Ling was injured, but since this beauty-loving stinky fox grew up, he seemed to have some inexplicable stubbornness.
He only asked Qu Xiuran to ignore his injuries, which were all left over from the battle with the half-demon.
After the eyes of the other party faded from the previous greenness, they became more cold like monsters, but they were still very beautiful. Qu Xiuran sat in the study studying talismans, and the man sat not far away to apply medicine to the wound.
When the wound is finished, the other party will approach him and help him squeeze his shoulder.
When standing behind and talking to Qu Xiuran, he could smell the scent of medicine on this person.
Although Qu Ling is much taller than before, these days, Qu Xiuran has already gotten used to him being by his side, and even Qu Ling and Shi Li have similar status, so Qu Xiuran will not feel uncomfortable.
At night, candles were lit beside the table, and Qu Ling bent slightly from behind to look at the words written by Qu Xiuran: "It's beautiful."
Qu Xiuran's handwriting is beautiful, although he often does not write well, but as long as he wants to write well, the handwriting is still very beautiful.
The voice of his evaluation was right next to Qu Xiuran's ear, and Qu Xiuran did not turn his head: "Want to learn?"
The latter nodded.
"Then go to school."
Qu Xiuran pushed the person away: "Stick to me all day, you won't learn anything."
Qu Ling didn't like going to school, and getting along with other students didn't seem to be more attractive to him than being around Qu Xiuran.
Seeing that Qu Xiuran was sleepy, he followed behind Qu Xiuran, his hands gently wrapped around Qu Xiuran's body, just like when he was a big dog, Qu Xiuran never resisted the approach of a big dog.
Sometimes, when Qu Xiuran was really sleepy or unwilling to move because of comfort, he would not reject the approach of Qu Ling who was in human form.
He gently put his cheek close to the man's back, feeling the fragrance and heartbeat of Qu Xiuran's body.
No one can be so close to Qu Xiuran, but he can.
Qu Xiuran's back is very thin, and he usually doesn't wear too many clothes when he is in his own yard, so he can feel his body temperature.
Although you need to squat your body halfway.
Qu Ling stood up slightly, and his breath would fall on Qu Xiuran's neck.
Many times when this person fell asleep, Qu Ling would secretly touch the skin there. He lowered his head, and under the dim candlelight, he seemed to be kissing Qu Xiuran's neck, wanting to touch it with his lips. In the end, he didn't dare to go any further.
The candles flickered, and the shadows cast by the candlelight hit the wall to form a silhouette of the two intimately.
He inserted/inserted his fingers into Qu Xiuran's hair, soft.
But at this moment, Qu Xiuran suddenly turned around, grabbed his neck, and pulled him to his side.
As if disturbed, Qu Xiuran looked into his eyes and tilted his head slightly. Compared with his soft hair, this man's eyes were sharp enough. Qu Xiuran looked too dangerous at this time.
Qu Xiuran is not sleepy today, obviously he doesn't like his approaching, as long as he hums a little to show weakness at this time, Qu Xiuran will let him go.
Sure enough, Qu Xiuran patted his face with the back of his hand, and the tall young man lowered his head slightly in front of him, as if he could be slaughtered by him at any time.
Qu Xiuran let go of his hand: "Go back."
When he said this, Qu Ling knew that it was impossible for him to live with Qu Xiuran again that day.
Early the next morning, Qu Xiuran met Ji Tangsheng in the study, who looked very tired.
"Others are red when they make money, but the Ji family seems to have emptied themselves after making money, and they are tired of counting money."
The amount of money the family has made in the past six months is uncountable, and of course it has dragged Qu Xiuran's blessings, but Ji Tangsheng sighed: "I am an ordinary person, and nothing can make me worry about anything except money."
"Then what happened to you?"
"There are monsters making troubles near my bank, and I have lost a lot. Not only my bank, but also monsters everywhere in other places." He paused, "Qu Xiuran, you didn't let Qu Ling run away. go out?"
"The Fang family hasn't come to trouble you these days?"
"Come to look for it."
Qu Xiuran told Ji Tangsheng everything about Fang's family. Unlike his imagined reaction, this person didn't seem too surprised.
"This way I can finally understand why he was able to clean up Fang's family so quickly."
"As long as you control them to kill each other, no matter how powerful they are, they will fall apart."
Even Ji Tangsheng has no way to deal with these people.
"But this person will not kill you because he has some old friendship with your mother, right?"
Qu Xiuran pinched his fingers: "It's kind of disgusting."
Living under the fence of others, especially under the control of Tantai An, made him feel very disgusted.
He has found the system more than once in the past six months, and asked the system to help him find a way to deal with Tantai An's ability, but the results obtained by the system are similar to Qu Xiuran's idea.
The only way that people can accept a little bit is to manipulate the monsters through Qu Ling.
But for the current Qu Ling, this is really impossible. It has been half a year, and this person is a little useless in trying to control the half-demon.
"It's better to go to the border for the rest of the time. You will definitely not be able to make Qu Ling make much progress here." Ji Tangsheng suggested, "After going there, maybe things can be resolved faster."
The last time Qu Ling controlled the monsters in a large area was also at the border, and now he can quickly adapt to the habit of fighting with monsters with this person.
"If you leave, I'm afraid you won't be able to hide it from anyone."
This is what Qu Xiuran is most concerned about. When Qu's family goes to the border, everyone will know that they have something to do with monsters. By then, their reputation in the cultivation world will be worsened.
"So these years, there have been monsters entering the city to attack one after another. I don't think it's easy."
Ji Tangsheng said: "The more such things happen, the more people will hate monsters. If you use monsters to deal with Fang's family, your Qu family will become a target of public criticism."
"Then what should we do? Since you have come to find me, there is nothing you can do, right?" The person on the other side clearly seemed to be indifferent to anything, but every time when Qu Xiuran explained the ins and outs , Ji Tangsheng can always come up with his own solutions.
So after the incident came out, Qu Xiuran didn't even contact Ji Tangsheng immediately, because he also knew very well that if Ji Tangsheng had a solution, he probably didn't need to find it himself. Ji Tangsheng would come to him and propose a solution.
Since this person came to find him today, it is impossible to let this matter become a dead move.
"I will also go to the border during this time, and do some small business."
"You can take Qu Ling with me."
Qu Xiuran frowned: "What business are you going to the border for?"
"Go to Zhou's house to collect the bill."
He held Qu Xiuran's hand, his palm was cold, and put it on his slightly tired face: "You see, my shop was smashed by monsters, and the loss was heavy. The money owed by the Zhou family to the Sheng family If I don’t return it all the time, can I still sleep?”
Qu Xiuran patted the man's face: "So I was the one who found you..."
"The thug."
Ji Tangsheng also smiled as if he was separated by a layer of fog, but his somewhat cunning appearance made people realize that he was a businessman, he would always find a chance to make a fortune from anyone who was in trouble with anyone. .
"But you can't take a free ride, you have to give me some benefits."
In the days that followed, Ji Tangsheng and Qu Xiuran returned to the way they were when they first met a few years ago. They went to the casino all day, either to gamble or to collect debts.
However, Qu Xiuran helped Ji Tangsheng smash a few shops when he had nothing to do. As a result, there were soon rumors that Ji Tangsheng's Ji family was short of money, and the banknotes and magic weapons stored in the bank might not be able to turn over.
The affairs of the bank are all big things, and things are spread to ten, ten to hundreds, and when Ji Tangsheng feels that the atmosphere is about the same, he takes Qu Xiuran and Qu Ling to the border, and deliberately releases some news that he is going to the Zhou family to collect debts. No one will doubt it.
It was evening when the three of them set off, and Qu He stood at the door of his house to see Qu Xiuran go, and asked him to take away one of them, Zuo Ying.
She put all her confidants by Qu Xiuran's side, and also hoped that Qu Xiuran would be safe.
Qu He usually wouldn't talk much to him, but Qu Xiuran could feel the emotion in it.
Sitting in the car, Ji Tangsheng ate grapes, stretched out his head and greeted Qu He: "Don't worry, Auntie, I will take good care of Qu Ye."
Qu He hummed: "I told Qu Ye to take good care of you, don't enter the stomach of monsters."
Qu He never liked Ji Tangsheng before, especially when he always took Qu Xiuran to the casino in his early years.
At that time, Qu Xiuran was young, and Ji Tangsheng could be said to have met the most adult things. Even if Qu He didn't live with Qu Xiuran at that time, he had heard of their glorious deeds.
At that time, Tantai An was the young master of Jiaojiao in everyone's eyes, while Ji Tangsheng was completely opposite, ignorant, eating, drinking and having fun all day long, bringing Qu Xiuran to the scene, Qu Xiuran was indeed like his wife.
I'm afraid that if any child plays with this person, the mother will not feel at ease.
It is true that Ji Tangsheng doesn't have any friends around him. There are quite a few people who want to play with him. After all, he is the richest merchant in the cultivation world and has a great reputation outside. None of the second-generation ancestors in the cultivation world don't want to go to his side. Yes, but Qu Xiuran was the only one who could really be with him all day long.
Ji Tangsheng has a very strange personality. He has always only liked interesting people, and he only wants to associate with interesting people. But when he first met Qu Xiuran, he thought Qu Xiuran was very interesting.
He is so arrogant and conceited that people hate him, but he is liked by almost everyone around him who knows him well. There is no doubt that Qu Xiuran is a special person.
At that time, Tantai An took good care of Qu Xiuran, but Ji Tangsheng often teased Qu Xiuran when he first met him.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Ji Tangsheng and Tantai An's thoughts were completely reversed.
How much Ji Tangsheng has helped Qu Xiuran over the years, Qu He should know best.
This road is not easy, the road to the border is long, and the closer the destination is, the worse the weather will be.
Qu Xiuran, Ji Tangsheng, and Qu Ling were all in the same carriage. In fact, the fastest way was of course to fly with the sword, but neither Ji Tangsheng nor Qu Ling knew it, so they could only use the carriage.
Ji Tangsheng was the most expensively dressed among this group of people. He was the only one who looked like a peacock all day long. Even if his face was tired, he was always well dressed. He leaned against the window, lazily. loose appearance:
"This is the master next to your mother?" She looked at Zuo Ying curiously, "It really doesn't look like the rumored killer."
"She can screw your head off while sitting still."
Ji Tangsheng laughed dryly: "It seems that there is hope for going to Zhou's house to collect debts this time."
After greeting everyone, the group officially started their journey.
Qu Ling has been sleeping next to Qu Xiuran. Since Ji Tangsheng came, this person has never left Qu Xiuran's side. The memory of going to the border is not good for him, but since Qu Xiuran is going manage
