Chapter 49 "Third Uncle" is here

"Okay! I'll listen to you, but you'd better tell me what's going on. Otherwise..."

Qi Yue sneered as she said this, and at the same time, she exerted force on her hand. The tea cup was not broken, but the spiritual tea inside disappeared in an instant.

Senior Brother Lu didn't even frown when he saw this. He knew Qi Yue would have this reaction long before he decided to say that.

"Our Chamber of Commerce does have the Tianxin Stone, but that Tianxin Stone is not an auction item of our Chamber of Commerce."

That's why Senior Brother Lu didn't include it in the scope of trading with Qi Yue when he just said it.

"...As far as I know, the Ning family has been very uneasy recently. There are rumors that there have been traces of demon cultivators around the city under the jurisdiction of the Ning family in the past two years."

"In order to eradicate the impact of this matter on the Ning family, the Ning family head specially sent the elder stationed at the Chamber of Commerce to place a reward on this Tianxin Stone."

"Not only that, but there are also many treasures, as well as the promise that as long as he can help the Ning family eradicate the evil cultivators, he can become the Ning family's guest minister, all of which have been recorded by the Chamber of Commerce."

"Otherwise, Lu would not have informed this matter and specifically conveyed it to fellow Taoist Qi."

When he said these last words, Senior Brother Lu finally had the arrogance in his eyes that only a disciple of a large sect could have.

He glanced at Qi Yue again, the meaning of that look was obvious.

Since Fengyun Chamber of Commerce provided her with this information, she had to remember this favor.

And Qi Yue is a smart person, so naturally he will not understand this truth.

She softened her expression and said to Senior Brother Lu, "My little sister was anxious before and accidentally offended Senior Brother Lu with her words. I hope Senior Brother Lu won't take the blame."

"How dare you dare."

Senior Brother Lu is also very polite. Qi Yue is being polite like this. If he really encounters someone with a hot temper, Senior Brother Lu probably won't even say a word.

The two exchanged pleasantries, and then Senior Brother Lu explained in detail the reward offered by the Ning family.

With the exact news, Qi Yue didn't waste any time. After leaving the headquarters, he went to the post house in Pingcheng without stopping.

Although Fengyun Chamber of Commerce also has channels to deliver news to others, Qi Yue does not trust them.

She still came to the post house.

The post house is nominally under the jurisdiction of the City Lord's Mansion, but in fact, they do not belong to a certain sect or family. They exist only for the human race.

Therefore, all the monks stationed in the post house must be "loose cultivators" who are clean and have walked through the path of inquiry set up by Qianji Pavilion on Langya.

When Qi Yue came over, it was a clear sky and white sun, and there was no major event such as the siege of the city by the beast tide, so the post house looked deserted.

A tall monk with a rough appearance but an elegant manner was sitting in front of the door having a drink.

When he noticed someone entering the post house, the man turned his head and said in an indifferent voice:

"Which disciple has something important to do?"

"Qi Yue, the 114th generation direct descendant of the Ji family in Hongtian City, met the senior, and the junior came to pay tribute on the order of the family.

This is the offering from the younger generation, and I would like to ask the seniors to take a look at it. "

Qi Yue respectfully presented her identity token and the storage bag she had prepared long ago, then quietly lowered her eyes and waited.

Not all the monks in the post house would accept the "tribute" from those who came down, but fortunately, the other party did not have any intention to embarrass Qi Yue, and his spiritual consciousness swept over her body, and then quickly took it back.

He was in no hurry to accept Qi Yue's "offering".But his eyes fell on her face, seeming to linger a few more times.

"You are from the Ji family, but your surname is Qi?"

Qi Yue said without blinking, "This junior has taken his mother's surname since he was a child. The Ji family has no objection to this."

In fact, although the Ji family values ​​​​the face of being an aristocratic family, they are more concerned about the future development of the Ji family.

As a single fire spirit root and an innate fire spirit body, Qi Yue has excellent talent and qualifications, so the Ji family naturally values ​​her.

Originally, she had not grown up in the Ji family since she was a child, and was not close to the Ji family. If she forced people to change their father's surname, it would not push them further and further away.

The Ji family is not stupid, how could they kill the goose and get the eggs?

The man nodded slightly, without asking any questions. After taking her identity token from the Ji family, he lightly touched it.

Qi Yue felt puzzled when she saw this, but thinking of the purpose of her coming here, she hurriedly said, "Wait a minute, senior. I have news and want to ask senior for help."

It's not just for you to scratch the token and leave your own spiritual power.

After Qi Yue got the token back and noticed the slightest fluctuation on it, which was different from before, she couldn't help but show a look of tears on her face.There is another rule when the post house "pays tribute". When the people in the post house accept the "tribute", they must help the person offering the tribute once.

But how to help, and to what extent, it is up to him to decide.

Just when Qi Yue was hesitating whether to find another channel to send the news back, the man raised his eyelids and said:
"News? The person you are looking for is always outside. What news do you want to spread?"

"what?"

Qi Yue was really stunned this time.

She blinked her beautiful peach eyes, and then asked a little cautiously: "Senior, how did you know that I was looking for someone when I sent the message back?"

Before the man could answer, a voice suddenly came from outside, "Because I told him."

This voice!

Qi Yue was stunned for a moment and looked out the door. She saw the young man who came in with a smile on his face, a jade-like crown on his face, a white robe with auspicious clouds and gold patterns embroidered on the cuffs, and a green jade flute in his hand.

The end is elegant and elegant, and has the legacy of a gentleman.

But Qi Yue knew in her heart that this person was not good enough, and that "Ji Yueru" would end up like that, and this person also played a big role.

She called the person in a loud voice.

"Uncle Three!"

The little girl has just become a big girl after not seeing her for a few years.

The young man looked at Qi Yue, who was becoming more and more beautiful and charming, and sighed secretly in his heart.

"You still call me uncle, I thought you didn't recognize yourself as a member of the Ji family after you beat someone and ran out of Ji's house.

You were raised delicately by True Lord Qianyi, why are you so intolerable? "

The young man said and reached out to touch her head, but Qi Yue noticed and avoided it.

Hearing him say that she was "delicate", Qi Yue lowered her eyes slightly and did not respond to him. Instead, she asked:

"Why is Third Uncle here?"

She wanted to spread the news to the Ji family, but what she needed was the Ji family's guards. I heard that the Ji family would put some people around every direct descendant for personal protection.

The origins of those people are "Siwei", and their existence is somewhat similar to those "Tao soldiers" mentioned a long time ago.

But Qi Yue didn't know if the Ji family had any arrangements for her.

If there is, then things with the Ning family will be easier to handle. If not, Qi Yue is going to go there and take a look before making other plans.

Seemingly seeing her rejection of him, the young man felt a little surprised, but he didn't pay much attention.

He chuckled and shook his head, not in a hurry to reply to her.

Then he bowed to the people watching with cold eyes and said with a smile, "The younger members of the family are not sensible, thank you for your trouble, Zhenjun."

Qi Yue rolled her eyes inwardly and said, hypocritical.

She also gave the man a junior salute, then turned around and left.

With Ji Wenqing here, it doesn't matter whether the news reaches the Ji family or not.

She already knew in her heart that Ji Wenqing was probably the person sent by the Ji family to protect her, but he was not the "guardian" of the Ji family.

Therefore, what happened to "Ji Yueru" is likely to happen to her again.

Thinking of this, Qi Yue couldn't help but feel aggrieved.

In fact, in the past four years, she really didn't want to associate what happened between "Ji Yueru" and "Xu Mo" with herself. After all, from the beginning, she and that "Ji Yueru" didn't seem to be the same person. .

However, it was a coincidence that he accidentally ran into Xu Mo outside Jincheng and faked his death to escape.

It is another coincidence that the person who helped someone through the love crisis was related to Ling Jian (the person "Ji Yueru" liked in the previous life).

What happened to Ji Wenqing that time? Although she politely called him "third uncle", they only really met three times.

She didn't believe that he cared so much about the junior. After seeing her in the Tianluo Mountains, he followed her because he was worried about her own safety.

The only explanation is that he was originally someone specially sent by the Ji family to protect her, and he was the "protector" carefully selected by the Ji family for her.
