After Zhou Qingmu left the noodle stall, he took Xiao Yue'er and walked further north. The city was not very big, but it was not small either. After Zhou Qingmu took the little girl holding a candied haws in her hand and left with a stick of incense,

We walked into the alley very close to the north city gate.

Perhaps due to some fate, Xiao Yue'er actually liked eating candied haws like he did when he was a child. Zhou Qingmu didn't say anything about this, but he felt a little dazed in his heart.

After walking through the alley, the two came to a house.

Zhou Qingmu knocked gently on the door of the house, but no one responded. Then, under Xiao Yue'er's shocked eyes, Zhou Qingmu condensed sword energy in his hand and swung the sword. The door of the house did not look like Xiao Yue'er's.

Just like what Yue'er was thinking, she was chopped down by her "brother" with a sword. Instead, like a broken bronze mirror, a "thumping" sound sounded in the little girl's ears. Immediately afterwards, the door of the house opened.

Opened it by myself.

When the little girl in light yellow saw this scene, she shrank behind Zhou Qingmu as if she had seen a ghost. Zhou Qingmu just rubbed the little girl's head with a gentle smile, and the next moment he took Xiao Yue'er's hand and walked in.

In the house.

But as soon as Zhou Qingmu entered the house, he immediately stood on the spot, bowed to the house in front of him, and shouted softly: "Junior Zhou Qingmu, pay homage to senior Qi. I have been so presumptuous just now, please don't blame me, Mr.

.”

Xiaoyue'er looked at Zhou Qingmu who was bending down to bow with doubtful eyes. She blinked her eyes and an idea flashed in her mind. She then followed Zhou Qingmu's example and bent over to bow. It's just that the little girl looked a bit a bit like this.

awkward.

"Zhou Nianyue, meet your senior!"

The sky and the earth were silent, and there was no movement in the house. Zhou Qingmu saluted in front of the house for a while. During this period, the little girl straightened her body and rubbed her waist. Seeing that Zhou Qingmu was still saluting, she continued to salute.

I followed Zhou Qingmu's example and continued to salute.

Finally, a sigh came from the room, and then a hoarse voice rang in Zhou Qingmu's ears.

"That's all, come in."

When Zhou Qingmu heard this, he straightened up quickly, pulled some little girls beside him who had not yet recovered, and walked into the house.

Soon, Zhou Qingmu opened the door and saw an old man in a green robe sitting on a rocking chair, closing his eyes to relax.

Zhou Qingmu bent down and bowed again, and said respectfully: "I would like to excuse you, senior, but where is Qi Yan now?"

After the words fell, the old man in green robe opened one eye slightly and said softly: "What do you want with that kid Qi Yan?"

Zhou Qingmu was overjoyed when he heard this, and quickly continued: "To be honest, Senior Qi, I am an old friend of Qi Yan. I came here this time, firstly, to find Qi Yan's whereabouts, and secondly, I have to leave here because of some matters."

I am here, and I want to find someone who I can trust to take care of the little girl next to me for a period of time."

After the words fell, Xiao Yue'er, who was chewing on the candied haws, suddenly looked disappointed, but she didn't dare to say anything anymore. In fact, the little girl was scared inside at this time. She was afraid that if she said anything more, Brother Xiao Mu would really

Don't let yourself go, never come back again.

After hearing this, the old man in green robe opened his eyes, looked at the ceiling, and murmured to himself: "Zhou Qingmu...I heard that brat mention it. Li Qiubai's apprentice?"

Zhou Qingmu nodded, still looking respectful, because the old man in front of him is the biological father of Qi Yan, the great swordsman on the border! Not only is he a thousand-year-old senior among the human race, his strength is unfathomable!

After the green-robed old man thought for a while, he looked at Zhou Qingmu and said softly: "Qi Yan went to fight a life-and-death battle with a demon clan leader in Dongshan three days ago. I'm afraid that boy may not be able to come back."

After hearing this, Zhou Qingmu also frowned slightly. Dongshan is the division of the demon clan's realm like the three realms of Heaven, Lotus, and Misty Rain, and this time Qi Yan is facing a demon clan leader. This means that Qi Yan will face strong men from the demon clan who are like the top strong men from the eight major Taoist families.

Thinking of this, Zhou Qingmu couldn't help but feel a little worried. Although Qi Yan is now a sword cultivator who has reached the emperor's realm and holds an immortal sword, after all, he has just entered the realm not long ago. He may not necessarily be able to fight against such a powerful person. Take advantage. It may even be a disaster!

The old man in green robe glanced at the little girl next to Zhou Qingmu, but his eyes were quickly attracted to her, so he said calmly to Zhou Qingmu: "Boy, I, Qi Qing, can take care of this little guy for you for a while, but I have a request, and if you can agree to it, I can ensure that this little guy is safe and sound while you are away."

Qi Qing!

This name may not be familiar to many people today, or even extremely strange. However, Zhou Qingmu had seen it in a human history book compiled a hundred years ago, in addition to other people's mouths.

If we were to say that the number one swordsman in the past three hundred years was none other than Li Qiubai! But in another three hundred years, only Qingdi would be the best in swordsmanship!

As high as Li Qiubai is, so is his kendo. As high as his kendo is, so is Qingdi!

This Qing Emperor is the old man in front of you, Qi Qing!

Therefore, Qi Yan's current achievements in swordsmanship are probably inseparable from the training of this swordsman Qingdi!

After Zhou Qingmu heard this, he frowned slightly, but did not agree directly. Instead, he looked directly at the old man in green robe, pondered for a moment, and said: "If the senior can make the junior feel at ease, no matter what the conditions are, as long as it is not forced on others, Zhou Qingmu can agree!"

"Interesting little guy, he entered the realm of emperor at the age of twenty-two? It was a few years earlier than me and my incompetent son. Unfortunately, his life was too bumpy, and he received Li Qiubai's kendo inheritance when he was young. , I can’t change anything. My request is that during the time you are away, this little girl will accompany me to talk and practice swordplay, serve tea and water, etc. It doesn’t matter. Of course, I think this little girl’s qualifications are fundamental. It's not bad. If I'm in a good mood one day, I can teach her some sword skills. As for whether to learn it or not, it's all up to her. If she can't do this, then please go back and don't bother me. It gave me a sweet dream." The old man in green robe looked at Zhou Qingmu carefully, then looked at the little girl beside him, and said calmly.

Zhou Qingmu frowned slightly after hearing this. After thinking about it for a moment, he suddenly realized that this old man's request didn't seem to be a request at all?

Then, Zhou Qingmu turned to look at Xiao Yue'er with a gentle smile. He bent down and rubbed the little girl's head, and said, "Yue'er, can you do what the old man just said?"
