"Sister Jinyao, are you thirsty? Have a drink of water."
"Thank you, Brother Duan, I'm not thirsty."
…
"Sister Jinyao, are you tired? Do you want to stop and rest for a while?"
"Brother Duan, I'm not tired."
…
"The sun is setting. Let's find a place to camp."
"Sister Duan, it's only three o'clock now, and there's still more than an hour until dark. How about we walk a little further?"
"Sister, it gets dark early in the mountains. Even though it's only three o'clock now, it's as dark as it gets today. Besides, we've reached the depths of the Hongming Mountains now. Not only are monsters roaming around after dark, but there are also some
Evil spirits are infested, so we must find a safe place to camp early, but we can’t look for a camping spot until dark, as it will be too late.”
"oh"
Jinyao wanted to go a little further and set up camp, but with her gentle personality, she was too embarrassed to caress her companions, so she could only agree in a humming voice.
Lowering her head and pinching the corners of her clothes was already her biggest protest.
It's a pity that her two companions didn't pay any attention to her protests.
In fact, they could see Qi Jinyao's reluctance, but they all pretended not to see it because they stopped on purpose.
Qi Jinyao wanted to hurry up, but the two of them wanted to go slower, so they kept looking for various reasons to delay their journey along the way.
One of these two people is called Duan Anqing and the other is Duan Anting. They are a pair of biological siblings.
Qi Jinyao and Qi Jinyao were a close couple in Hucheng in front of Longfeng Villa.
Hucheng has been very chaotic recently. To be precise, the entire Longfeng Villa has been very chaotic.
Long Siqing's death, coupled with the sudden disappearance of Duo Erjun and Feng Sijun, left Longfeng Villa without a leader. All subordinate forces became restless, and there were even calls to re-elect the owner of the village.
Qi Jinyao traveled non-stop from Paradise City to Hucheng. She wanted to find a tavern to get information, but she met a group of ruffians in the tavern and was teased for no reason.
At the critical moment, Duan Anqing and Duan Anting stepped forward to drive away the gangsters and rescued Qi Jinyao.
Qi Jinyao was extremely grateful to the two of them.
She was careless and soon exposed her identity in front of Duan Anting and her brother.
Duan Anting and his brother learned that Qi Jinyao was from Qijia City and a powerful alchemist.
After the teacher, he immediately became attached to Qi Jinyao and was very attentive to him.
At first they just wanted to ask Qi Jinyao to make elixirs for them, but during the process of getting along, they found that Qi Jinyao was very kind and simple. Not only was he willing to make elixirs for them for free, he even gave them his own elixirs after learning that they lacked them.
them.
As a result, the two fell in love with Qi Jinyao even more.
Even though Qi Jinyao felt uncomfortable with the excessive enthusiasm of Duan Anting and her brother, she was shy and found it difficult to refuse other people's smiles. She was even worried that she would say the wrong thing and make Duan Anting and her brother unhappy because she had almost never made friends with them.
She already regarded these two as good friends.
However, her kindness and humility made Duan Anting and her brother increasingly greedy.
From the beginning, the two asked Qi Jinyao to make alchemy, then they made up lies and deceived Qi Jinyao's elixir. In the end, they even regarded Qi Jinyao as their private treasure and were afraid of being cheated.
Others took it away and wanted to keep Qi Jinyao forever.
One day, a bold and beautiful idea suddenly came to her sister Duan Anting's mind. She felt that it was not impossible to have Qi Jinyao, a treasure girl, forever, as long as her brother Duan Anqing married Qi Jinyao.
After she told Duan Anqing about the idea, Duan Anqing happily agreed without even thinking about it.
Qi Jinyao should have good looks, a good family background, a good personality, gentle and well-behaved, a sweet and sweet bird, she is the perfect woman that most men can't find even if they hold a lantern in their hearts, Duan Anqing morning
He had a secret crush on her.
However, the two siblings are self-aware and know that their family backgrounds are not as high as Qi Jinyao's. Even if Qi Jinyao agrees, her elders will most likely not agree, so the two of them want to make a show first, cook the rice before the time comes.
It doesn’t matter if my family doesn’t agree.
In order to please Qi Jinyao, the two siblings gathered around her every day to show their attentiveness, giving almost all the tenderness and care in their lives to Qi Jinyao.
Qi Jinyao, who was kept in the dark, felt the hot tenderness and care from the two siblings, and thought it was a sincere and true friendship.
Just when the two siblings thought that if they fell in love over time, they would capture Qi Jinyao's heart sooner or later, making her determined not to marry Duan Anqing in this life, Qingyun Bang suddenly appeared, disrupting their plans.
After Qi Jinyao learned from the Qingyun List that Zhang Xiaozu came from the place of his ancestral origin, he suddenly understood a lot of things. He knew that the Holy Beast of Blackpool was rescued by Zhang Xiaozu. All he needed to find the Holy Beast of Blackpool was
All she needed to do was find Zhang Xiaopou, so she immediately set off back to Paradise City.
However, halfway through, he heard news coming from the direction of Paradise City, saying that Zhang Xiaozu was a direct disciple of Taozu and had left Paradise City for the Taoist Gate. So Qi Jinyao immediately changed his route and rushed to the Taoist Gate.
Duan Anting and his brother had always known that Qi Jinyao was looking for someone, but they asked insinuatingly hundreds of times. Qi Jinyao never told them who they were looking for, only that she was looking for a good friend.
Naturally, they didn't want Qi Jinyao to find the person they were looking for before the matter was accomplished, so they kept talking about helping Qi Jinyao, but in action they kept stumbling, slowing down Qi Jinyao's progress, and creating all possible opportunities.
Let Duan Anqing launch a love offensive against Qi Jinyao.
But every time Duan Anqing wanted to go further, he would be rejected by Qi Jinyao. After several times, it even aroused Qi Jinyao's rejection and wariness. Now Qi Jinyao has already
Start deliberately keeping a distance from her.
Although Qi Jinyao was naive, even a little silly, she still felt that Duan Anqing's enthusiasm exceeded the boundaries of a good friend, so she began to express her rejection with actions, hoping that Duan Anqing could understand her meaning on his own and retreat when faced with difficulties.
Duan Anqing understood it, but instead of retreating despite the difficulties, he became more courageous with every setback.
However, Qi Jinyao was concerned about Duan Anqing's face and never explicitly refused, fearing that it would hurt the friendship between them.
So there was such an awkward stalemate between the three of them.
"Sister, you pitch the tent. An Qing and I will check the surrounding safety situation and bring back some firewood."
Duan Anting took out the tent she was sleeping in and explained to Qi Jinyao.
"Okay. Go ahead and be careful."
Qi Jinyao nodded happily, feeling secretly relieved, because every day when setting up camp, Duan Anting would let her and Duan Anqing work together, creating opportunities for the two of them to be alone, which made her feel very embarrassed and uncomfortable.
So she didn't have to be alone with Duan Anqing, which made her feel relaxed and happy for a moment.
After Duan Anting and his brother left, Qi Jinyao looked at the sun still hanging high in the sky, couldn't help but sigh, and said to himself: "At this speed, we may not even be able to reach Daomen during the Chinese New Year. We will have to meet Duan for dinner later."
Sister, please tell Brother Duan that you should either speed up your journey or drive separately. Hey, I wonder if they will be angry after hearing this?"
