Carrying Xiao Qi to a hidden place, Jiang Beiran once again used his mental power to detect his body.
'Hiss...it doesn't make sense.'
No matter how you check, Xiaoqi's current condition is very stable and her mental power is very active. There is no reason why she can't wake up.
This made Jiang Beiran very embarrassed. Even though he had all kinds of elixirs on hand, he couldn't take them randomly. He had to first understand what was wrong with Xiao Qi's body.
And just when Jiang Beiran was about to use acupuncture to stimulate Xiao Qi's acupuncture points, Xiao Qi suddenly opened his eyes.
But after looking at each other, Jiang Beiran realized that the person in front of him didn't seem to be Xiao Qi.
Because there was no respect or admiration in Xiao Qi's eyes at this moment, only calmness...a calmness that almost made Jiang Beiran feel at ease.
"So you are my Weiyangxing?" Xiao Qi suddenly said with a smile.
The voice was completely different from the original Xiao Qi. It was very peaceful and kind. Even just the voice made Jiang Beiran completely let down his guard.
"Are you...?" Jiang Beiran asked with confusion.
"Xiao Qi" did not answer, but asked instead: "Do you have the Four Treasures of the Study?"
"Yes." Jiang Beiran nodded and took out the paper, pen and ink.
"Can you lend it to me?" "Xiao Qi" stood up and stretched out his hand to Jiang Beiran.
"Please." Jiang Beiran handed over the brush in his hand.
Dip in ink, "Xiao Qi" quickly drew a map on the rice paper, then handed the pen back to Jiang Beiran and said: "This is considered a meeting gift from me. Please continue to take good care of Xiao Qi. Trust us."
We will meet again.”
The moment Jiang Beiran took over the pen, "Xiao Qi" was startled. Then he stared at Jiang Beiran and shouted: "Brother Wang! It's really you! I thought it was also a dream!"
Seeing that Xiao Qi had returned to her original appearance, Jiang Beiran was also a little startled.
'Who was that person just now? What is Weiyang Star? What do you mean by believing that we will meet again? Why can't you say this clearly when you have time to draw!'
'The Riddler, get out of Xuanlong Continent!'
"Brother Wang...what's wrong with you?"
Seeing that Brother Wang was silent, Xiao Qi asked cautiously.
"Nothing." Jiang Beiran shook his head and took the drawn map over.
After looking at it carefully, I determined that it was a place I didn't recognize.
'damn it!'
‘Can’t you just tell me where it is!?’
"So annoying!"
After complaining a few words in his mind, Jiang Beiran looked at Xiao Qi and asked, "Don't you remember what happened just now?"
"I don't know when Brother Wang was talking about just now? I just remember when the alien monster was about to give me a fatal blow, Brother Wang, you..."
"It's not this, it was just... that's all. It seems you don't remember." Jiang Beiran raised the map in front of Xiao Qi and said, "There seems to be another person living in your body now. He is bigger than you."
Wake up first and draw this map for me. Is it related to your previous experience in the secret realm?"
"Ah!?" Xiao Qi was obviously startled, "There is another person in my body? I...I don't know about this at all."
"Then do you know where this map is?"
After staring at the map carefully for a while, Xiao Qi said: "Looking at the terrain...it seems to be in Luoyun County."
"Where?"
"Ji country."
"Do you also remember the map of Ji Country?"
Jiang Beiran knew before that Xiao Qi knew the entire map of Qi State very well, but after all, he was a native of Qi State, and he had to make a living in Qi State, so it was normal for him to know every corner of Qi State so well.
But Ji State and Qi State are not even neighbors. There is Tong State between them. If he really knows all the maps of Ji State, then Jiang Beiran will really be able to use him as a navigation in the future.
"Well, I had some dealings with Ji State before, so I just wrote down some of them."
Nodding, Jiang Beiran put away the map and said, "After we get out, you accompany me to Naluoyun County."
Xiao Qi was very happy when he heard this and immediately responded: "Yes!"
But when I thought about Brother Wang saying that there was still someone in his body, I became uneasy again.
"Don't worry, the person in your body shouldn't have any ill intentions towards you, I guarantee you this."
When Xiao Qi heard what Brother Wang said, he was relieved. After all, to him, Brother Wang's words were the truth and could never be wrong.
Of course, in fact, Jiang Beiran didn't know whether the man just now had any ill intentions towards Xiao Qi. Although everything he showed was beautiful and kind, it was only superficial.
The reason why Jiang Beiran promised Xiao Qi this way was just to hope that he wouldn't be too distressed about this matter.
"You just said that you thought that I saved you was a dream. Does that mean you had a dream when you were unconscious?"
"Brother is wise!" Xiao Qi raised his hand in admiration, "That's right, I dreamed just now... I dreamed..." Xiao Qi looked confused as he spoke.
"What...dreamed about? It's strange...I still remembered it when I woke up just now."
"Don't be in a hurry, think about it slowly."
"Brother Wang, please wait a moment, I'll try to remember."
Xiao Qi said as he sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes and meditated.
On the other side, Lin Shiyun has returned to his sect's camp.
"Aunt!!" As soon as she saw Lin Shiyun back, Lin Shuangwen threw herself into her arms excitedly. Just now she thought that once her aunt left, she would never have the chance to see her again.
After all, the power of that stone spirit is obvious to everyone.
"Where's Xiaoqi!?" Lin Shuangwen looked behind Lin Shiyun and asked.
"This matter is a bit complicated, let's go in first."
After a cup of tea, Lin Shuangwen shouted with big eyes: "Are you saying that a master suddenly appeared, smashed the stone spirit into pieces, and then took Xiao Qi away!?"
"Yes." Lin Shiyun nodded.
What she described to Lin Shuangwen was similar to what she saw, but the master definitely couldn't tell it. As for why the master was so powerful, she didn't know.
The God Queen was stunned for a while, and Lin Shuangwen sighed with emotion: "What is going on in this year's Bixiao Conference? Isn't it true that only cultivators below the Xuanhuang Realm can enter?"
Lin Shiyun shook her head: "I don't know, I just hope Xiao Qi is safe."
At this time, Lin Shuangwen suddenly raised his head, looked at Lin Shiyun and asked: "Aunt, do you think the person who saved us last time was also the same expert who saved Xiao Qi?"
'Your guess is really accurate.'
Exclaiming in her heart, Lin Shiyun shook her head and said, "How could such a coincidence happen?"
"What a coincidence, the strong ones on the island are just like this..." Halfway through the words, Lin Shuangwen suddenly became worried, "Aunt, do you think there will be stronger aliens on the island? This time we...
Can you really get out alive?"
Rubbing Lin Shuangwen's hair, Lin Shiyun comforted: "What are you afraid of? Although there are aliens who have broken through the restrictions of Jinding Island and come in, there are more powerful ones here. Don't worry about it. Go and have a rest."
The injury hasn’t fully healed yet, has it?”
Lin Shiyun's words of comfort were sincere. She didn't know if there were any stronger aliens. She only knew that no matter how strong they were, they couldn't be better than the master, so she wasn't worried at all about not being able to get out of the island.
"But……"
"No but, go quickly."
"Okay... Then if Xiaoqi comes back, you can call me."
"Yes, I will."
Watching Lin Shuangwen walk back to his tent, Lin Shiyun had time to sort out his messy mood.
Thinking that she had been saved by the master twice, Lin Shiyun couldn't help but feel that maybe this was fate.
It was obviously an impossible time and an impossible place, but the master came to her side twice like a god and protected her behind him.
The reason why she didn't think of the master when she was thinking about who saved them before was because she didn't expect that the master would come to participate in the Bixiao Club and enter the Jinding Island.
Lin Shiyun could only explain such an incredible thing by using fate.
The master is the savior in her life.
Just when Lin Shiyun was having some wild thoughts, a goosebump-inducing voice suddenly sounded in her head.
"Auntie, where are you looking?"
After shaking her head quickly a few times to get Lin Yuyan's appearance out of her mind, Lin Shiyun took a long breath and said to herself: "Really, I'm afraid of what a little girl like her is doing in a movie."
Then he walked towards the camp.
…
"Brother Wang...I, I...I still can't remember anything." Xiao Qi reported to Jiang Beiran with a look of shame.
"It doesn't matter, just remember slowly." After Jiang Beiran finished speaking, he asked casually: "Have you ever entered that secret realm again?"
Jiang Beiran clearly remembered that the last time he and Xiao Qi parted, he was only at the level of the Great Mystic Master. Now, more than a year later, he has actually reached the ninth level of the Mysterious King. This speed of improvement can be said to be quite impressive.
Xiao Qi shook her head and replied: "I haven't gone in again."
"This time the Lin family will send you to participate in the Bixiao meeting, which means that you have done well in the Lin family in the past two years."
"Brother Wang is ridiculous. I just keep doing what I should do."
"There is no need to be humble at this time. I need to know your current position. I will naturally find you useful in the future."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Qi immediately said: "Back to Brother Wang! I am now the director of the Lin family, Black Flag, responsible for detecting all kinds of intelligence. In addition to the Black Flag position, I also serve as Bronze Chapter, responsible for managing the Lin family.
Fort’s auction house.”
"Okay, I can leave the auction house to you. It seems that the Lin family has great trust in you."
"It's all because of Miss Lin's care that I can climb so fast."
"Then you have to be capable to open the back door for you. Are there any other positions?"
"Yes." Xiao Qi nodded and continued to report.
After listening to the whole paragraph, Jiang Beiran discovered that Xiao Qi now has so many positions that if it were changed to the 21st century, he might not be able to print it on a single business card.
"Pfft, the Lin family is really not afraid of exhausting you to death."
Jiang Beiran couldn't help but laugh when he heard that Xiao Qi Company had to take care of things like recruiting servants and maids.
"It's good. Those who are capable work hard. Since the Lin family has so much trust in you, don't let it down."
"Yes, Brother Wang, please rest assured."
"Listen to Lin Shiyun, your goal in participating in the Bixiao Club this time is to be in the top three, right?"
"Yes! Miss Lin said that this time, even if she has to fight hard, she will fight to get back to the top three."
"How did it turn out?"
"This..." Xiao Qi lowered her head in embarrassment, "There are too many powerful Xuan Kings on this island. Every time we go out, we have to work step by step. We really don't have much time to look for treasures."
Jiang Beiran smiled after hearing this and said: "If you show the level of cultivation you had when you fought against the stone spirit just now, which cultivator on this island can be your opponent?"
After hearing what Brother Wang said, Xiao Qi couldn't help but look at her hands and said, "I don't know where the power just came from. At that time, I just wanted to protect Miss Lin."
"It has nothing to do with that secret realm?"
Xiao Qi originally wanted to answer "It shouldn't matter", but after thinking about it, he actually knew only a little about the secret realm. He really didn't know whether it mattered or not.
Seeing Xiao Qi lost in thought, Jiang Beiran stood up and patted his shoulder and said, "Maybe you will know the next time you enter the secret realm. Now that you are in good health, go back and report that you are safe."
"Yes!" Xiao Qi said and bowed deeply to Jiang Beiran.
Although he was reluctant to give up, since it was Brother Wang who ordered him to go back, Xiao Qi didn't say anything and left after saluting.
Watching Xiao Qi's leaving figure, Jiang Beiran thought that the sudden appearance of a Xuanhuang-level alien was probably because he came to participate in the Bixiao Conference.
After all, the protagonist is here, so what if something special doesn't happen?
'Besides, since this is an event prepared for the protagonist... I feel like it's not that simple.'
Back at their home base, the team members were eating and drinking, but they had no idea that a major event had just happened outside that almost wiped out all human cultivators.
"Xiao Beiran~" Shi Fenglan hid her hands behind her back and ran towards Jiang Beiran.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Beiran asked.
"Look!" Shi Fenglan handed the steamer hidden behind her back to Jiang Beiran, "I steamed the buns myself."
"Then what?"
"Don't you want to try it?" Shi Fenglan blinked and asked expectantly.
"In no mood."
"Just say you want to eat!"
"If you don't want to, you just don't want to."
Knowing that she couldn't change Xiao Beiran's mind, Shi Fenglan had no choice but to compromise: "What I made tasted too bad...so I still want to eat what you made!"
"Let's talk about it later, I still have things to do."
"Xiao Beiran, you seem to have been very busy since entering the island. What are you doing?"
After knowing that her team was almost certain to win the championship, Shi Fenglan completely turned on the outing mode. Before, she even helped to find materials together, but these days, she didn't even bother to leave the cave. She dragged Shi Jiamu to play with Xuanlong all day long.
legend.
Of course, what Shi Fenglan wanted most was to play with Xiao Beiran, but he seemed very busy and had no time to pay attention to her.
Seeing that Xiao Beiran didn't answer her question and went straight to his room, Shi Fenglan grabbed his sleeve and said: "Xiao Beiran~ Just play with me for a while today~ Just for one day~"
"I told you, I have business to do."
"Oh... okay then." Seeing that Xiao Beiran was serious, Shi Fenglan stopped pestering her and went to play with Shi Jiamu with some regret.
After opening the door, Jiang Beiran had just activated the Sky Eye Array when he found a portal appearing on a "screen" monitoring the southeastern area.
Immediately afterwards, a stone spirit walked in from the portal.
