    Xiaojiu asked again: "Sir, he's gone, what about you?" This sentence stunned Qingniu. Yes, the master asked it to leave a message for Xiaojiu, but what about itself?  It thought for a while and then replied with some hesitation: "Now that you have achieved success in cultivation, and I have also broken through the barriers, it is time to leave." Xiaojiu: "Didn't Sir, sir, tell you where to go?" Qingniu: "  If the master has an order, he will do it, but the world is so big, where can I go?" Xiaojiu leaned down and lowered his voice: "Daniu, you are a monster now, you can't just run around like a cow.  But if you speak human words, you will scare people. If you meet an expert, they may treat you as a monster and subdue you. There are monsters more powerful than you, and they may even want to kill you.  The cow eats meat." Qingniu said in confusion, "Don't scare me." Xiaojiu said with a serious face, "I'm not scaring you, I'm just telling you not to run around, just stay here and practice."  Niu: "Master didn't let me stay here either." Xiaojiu: "But Master didn't let you stay here either!" Huh?  This makes sense!  While hesitating, Xiaojiu took advantage of the situation and said: "You are now a cultivated cow demon. If you don't want to continue living in the cowshed in another courtyard, you can use this place as your cave. Anyway, you have been here all these years.  I¡¯m used to it. I¡¯m enjoying my stay here. I¡¯m also practicing here successfully. Why don¡¯t you stay and continue practicing? You can also be my companion!¡± To be honest, Qingniu doesn¡¯t know where to find Huwa right now.  go.  Since Huwa has left, it means that Xiaojiu has found his own path in practice. If there are no accidents, there is no need for Huwa to interfere again.  Then the "mission" of Qingniu will be completed, and whether to leave or not is entirely up to its own will.  If it leaves this place, it can go to Kunlun Wonderland to see it. Now it has the Nine Realm cultivation realm!  But it also became curious about Xiaojiu's future practice experience, and also wanted to know what other things the master would ask Xiaojiu to do in the future.  More importantly, it heard the reluctance in Xiao Jiu's words, so it nodded and said: "Since the master has not told me, then I will continue to stay here." Xiao Jiu said happily: "If you are willing  , this is your cave, and I have designated the surrounding mountains and forests as your dojo. You can practice here on weekdays, and you don¡¯t have to work in the fields. " Qingniu said with a smile, "You just said, I am.  It¡¯s not bad for my strength, and it¡¯s okay to do some farm work on weekdays. This place is not bad, I will stay here temporarily. You tell the others, and from now on, the cow will be raised on the mountain.¡±  Said: "Look, how wonderful this is! I can also practice in the mountains from now on, okay?" Qingniu: "Whatever you want, it's your home anyway." Qingniu stayed in the villa, and Xiaojiu also declared  He wanted to concentrate on his cultivation. He did not live in another courtyard most of the time, but also moved to the mountains.  Of course, he has the final say in his own affairs, and the Tailuo couple knew it well, but in the eyes of others, it was this child who gradually grew up and became very withdrawn. He even took a cow to live in the mountains, which made everyone  I couldn't help but shook my head secretly and sighed.  During the two months of Qingniu retreat, Tailuo finally broke through the three realms of cultivation, and Xiaoxia also entered the first realm and was able to practice. It can be said that she was finally freed from the shackles of a certain life.  The two of them often go to the mountains to visit Xiaojiu and Qingniu, giving them things and asking for advice, and they also get more guidance on their practice.  But in the eyes of outsiders, Xiaojiu is withdrawn and only wants to live alone in the mountains.  Some people even suspected that the steward Tailuo deliberately sent Xiaojiu to live in a remote mountain in order to control the financial situation of other courtyards. He had firmly controlled the child since he was a child.  Now Tailuo is the master of the other courtyard, and he only occasionally sends some things to Young Master Xiaojiu.  Bai Lanzi firmly held this idea. He even secretly went to the mountains to search for Xiaojiu in an attempt to find out the truth and expose Tailuo's ugly true face.  But he didn't see Xiaojiu at all, and of course he didn't find the cave where Xiaojiu and Qingniu practiced. He got lost in the mountains and forests, and walked for a long time before he came out.  "Xiaojiu doesn't just hide in the cave to practice. He also often travels around the surrounding areas. Many times he even ran to play in the city walls, but outsiders didn't know it.  In the blink of an eye, more than four years have passed. Xiaojiu has reached the age of sixteen, and his cultivation has reached the fifth realm and the ninth level.  Xiao Jiu has gradually realized that Daniel's cultivation level is probably much higher than his own.  Because Xiao Jiu's cultivation has been improving continuously over the years, but no matter how high his cultivation is, he still can't see through the details of Daniel's cultivation.  This can only mean one thing. From the beginning to the end, Daniel was much taller than him, and he was worthy of being the great master's mount!  On this day, Xiaojiu left the cave and walked down the slope with his hands behind his back, experiencing the newly realized magical power of controlling shapes. Although he could not fly yet,?I already felt like I was flying, and now I feel like I am walking on flat ground while traveling through mountains and rivers.  Before he walked out of the dense forest, he suddenly realized something was wrong, stopped and stretched out his finger in the air.  At the same time, he heard the sound of strong wind piercing the sky, and three arrows were fired at each other, blocking all his escape routes in all directions. The trajectory of one of the arrows flying in the air actually turned and wandered.  It quickly bypassed two big trees and shot towards his chest, obviously possessing the ability to control objects.  "Immediately afterwards, there were three sounds of snap, snap, snap. The three arrow shafts split into countless thin strips in the air, and the arrows flew to no one knows where.  Xiaojiu stretched out his left hand, and with his right hand he had already pulled out the hosta from his bun and moved it forward.  Judging from his posture, he didn't hit anything, but he heard a thud and someone fell from the big tree ten feet away.  The man broke his neck when he hit the ground, but sustained fatal injuries while in the tree.  The wound was very small, just about an inch above the heart. It was unknown how deep it was, and blood gushed out and stained the clothes on the chest red.  Xiao Jiu immediately killed the monk who tried to assassinate him. At this time, two more arrows were shot from the diagonal direction. Both the strength and accuracy were impeccable.  But Xiaojiu just waved his left hand, and the arrows deviated from the direction at a close distance, each drawing an arc and sticking into the ground.  In the bushes five feet away, there were two figures on the left and one on the right retreating quickly, not even the hard bows they carried.  Those were the other two assassins. Seeing that the assassination had failed and that Xiao Jiu was beyond their control, they fled immediately.  This reaction was not unpleasant, but he was also very calm, and he did not forget to shoot an arrow to cover himself before escaping.  Xiao Jiu had inserted the hosta back into her bun, stretched out her hands to grab it in the air, and the two assassins who were about to escape jumped forward, but they turned back and somersaulted, as if they were rolled up by invisible force and fell to the ground.  Xiaojiu's reaction was quick enough and he left them behind in time, but then he was slightly shocked.  Those two people died too.  When they were swept up in the air, they realized that they could not escape today. They decisively pulled out the dagger and stabbed it into their hearts. When they landed, they saw that they were dead.  After all, the distance is a bit far. In such a blink of an eye, Xiao Jiu can do this to the limit. Even if he wanted to, he couldn't survive.  Xiao Jiu did not step forward to check the body. His face was very ugly, and he just stood there quietly for a long time.  Qingniu walked up to him from the forest, touched him with its horns and said, "What's wrong with you? Is it the first time in your life that you killed someone and you were so scared?" Xiaojiu's voice was a little low: "I'm not that good yet.  You are so timid, it¡¯s not like you have never seen such a scene before!¡± Xiaojiu said that he had seen such bloody scenes, not only referring to his own experience in Baoming Junior High School, but also to his experiences in Zhizhong, and even ¡°experiences¡±.  "Crossing the battlefield where thousands of troops and horses are fighting.  The "story" Huwa told him was mysterious and unpredictable for ordinary people, and contained the inexplicable divine will of the immortal family. When Xiaojiu's cultivation reached a certain level, he would feel as if he had experienced those scenes in person.  Qingniu: "Then why do you look so ugly?" Xiaojiu: "I was sent here when I was seven years old, and I have never made any enmity with anyone. Who would assassinate a person like me with such means? Not only did they send  One monk, and the other two are also elite dead warriors! " Qingniu sighed: "They thought they could easily succeed in dealing with you, but they didn't expect that they came here to die I have informed the steward Tailuo, he  I'll be here soon." Qingniu was in the cave just now, how could he notify Tailuo in the other courtyard?  But since it said so, it must have some magical means.  Before he finished speaking, Tai Luo had already arrived, walking swiftly through the mountains and forests to Xiao Jiu.  Tailuo looks younger than a few years ago, and his cultivation level has broken through the four realms.  Tailuo knew something was wrong when he saw Xiaojiu's face. He ignored the corpses and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Sir, what happened?" "Three dead men came to assassinate you." Xiaojiu simply answered like this  One sentence, and then asked, "Tai Luo, is there any news from Baoming Kingdom during this period?" Tai Luo lowered his head and said: "There has been no news in these years. If I don't send news back, I'm afraid no one will pay attention to it.  This way." When he said this, Tailuo's tone was very sad, with a hint of loss.  Since Xiao Jiu was sent here, caravans from Baoming Kingdom have often come to Lu Ze's department, but no one has ever taken the initiative to ask about Xiao Jiu's situation, and no one has sent him any property to support him. It seems that he is just left to his own devices.  How many years have passed since it was left to fend for itself!  Of course, if Xiaojiu wants to ask for his father's attention, he can also take the initiative to ask someone to say hello, such as asking a passing caravan to send a message and send someone back.  You can declare that you are short of money and hope that the country will send more goods to support you; or you can claim that you miss your hometown and ask your father to take you back.  These are things that Xiaojiu can take the initiative to do, but Xiaojiu did not do them.  Since he hasn't said anything for so many years,??, there is no sense of existence, so the whole court of Baoming Kingdom just ignores him. I am afraid he has been forgotten a long time ago and cannot even think of him.  "But the "sending message" that Tailuo mentioned just now has another meaning.  Only under one circumstance, Tailuo must take the initiative to send news to Baomingguo, that is, Xiaojiu is no longer there.  The last time Tailuo "sent news" was many years ago, when the Sixth Young Master unfortunately died of illness. According to the usual practice, Baoming Kingdom needs to send another Young Master.  In other words, Xiao Jiu¡¯s only meaning to Baomingguo now is that he is still alive here.  As long as he is alive, that is enough. No one will think about it unless he is dead.  Therefore, in the eyes of many outsiders, Xiaojiu's situation is very pitiful. This child is just too  So what about Tailuo himself? How many years has it been since he was sent here?  No one thought about whether to replace the garrison and let him return to his hometown. In fact, before Xiaoliu, there was a young master living in another courtyard in Baoming Kingdom, but his management was always too poor.  Xiaojiu said with a gloomy face: "Who said no one cares? This is what happened! I didn't expect that after so many years, what I was waiting for was an assassin who took my life!  Tailuo, no news has been sent from Baoming Kingdom, but  Haven't you heard any rumors?" Tailuo: "I have heard some rumors recently. It is said that your father is seriously ill and may not have much time left. I came to see you last month when I heard the rumors.  Not in the mountains. " Xiao Jiu's eyes were wet for some reason, and he sighed: "I know what's going on. Some people don't even want to let me go After all, he is my father. I should go back. " Tai.  Luo tried to persuade him: "If you want to go back, you might as well take this opportunity to return to the country openly. Although you have no foundation in the country, with the chaotic situation in the country and your cultivation methods, there is no one among you."  "Can I compete with you?" Xiaojiu shook his head and asked Qingniu: "Big Niu, would a person who drinks dew and eat haze go out of his way to fight for a piece of stinky meat with others?" Qingniu also shook his head and smiled bitterly.  , but did not speak, Xiaojiu said to Tailuo again: "I have to leave for a while, and some things just need to be settled." Tailuo said quickly: "It is right for you to want to visit your father. Although I don't know who sent it.  The assassin came, but I can guess that he is your brother after all. What do you want to do? " Xiaojiu said expressionlessly: "You want to say that it would be inappropriate to send assassins to kill each other?  It's true that a certain brother of mine could do this to me. Although I don't want to be involved in Baoming's national affairs, I can't leave such a person in the world. I have both reasons and means.  Do you want others to take care of him? "The king of Baoming is seriously ill and the princes in the country are competing for the throne. How can an assassin come to assassinate Xiao Jiu who is hiding in Lu Ze's tribe?  Of course, it is because some people feel that Xiaojiu is a threat. Even if it is only a potential threat, the hidden danger must be eliminated in time.  Xiao Jiu usually has no sense of existence, and no one will come to trouble him, but under certain circumstances, his existence seems very special.  There are at least three reasons why some people regard Xiaojiu as a threat.  One is that although there are many young men in the country, there are not many who are healthy enough to reach adulthood.  Xiao Jiu has just turned sixteen, and he only has five older brothers alive now, all of whom are half-brothers.  The second thing is that Xiaojiu has no bad deeds.  This sounds a bit ridiculous, because Xiaojiu has not been in the country at all these years, but it is true.  Several of his brothers have bad deeds, such as bullying men and dominating women, which is well known in the country.  Third, Xiaojiu not only has no bad deeds, but also has contributed to the country.  When did Xiaojiu serve the country?  In the eyes of onlookers, the fact that he left his hometown for his country at a young age, came to a place where he had no relatives, and endured humiliation and heavy burdens for so many years was certainly an achievement and made him stand out from the crowd.  In fact, these three things are not the decisive factors. If you want to compete for the position, you must have a supporting force; but if you have a supporting force that can compete with the competitors, then these three things will become the decisive factors.  It is impossible for Xiao Jiu to establish a supportive force in the country. The reason why some people are afraid of him and even want to assassinate him is precisely because he has stayed in Lu Zebu for so many years.  This concern is not unfounded.  If Xiao Jiu really wanted to compete for the throne, with his intelligence and intelligence, he might have already thought of various ways to curry favor with the dignitaries of Lu Ze's tribe, tried his best to get in touch with Lord Bojun, and promised that when he became the king in the future, he would be with Lu Ze's tribe or related people.  He received various benefits in exchange for Lu Zebu's support in ascending to the throne.  Whoever has stayed in Lu Zebu for so many years, or even grew up in Lu Zebu, is qualified to do such a thing.  Even if Xiaojiu doesn't have such thoughts, others still have to believe it!  As long as there is such a possibility, it is a huge hidden danger.  If someone in the Baoming Kingdom had placed an informant in Lu Ze's department, they might also have learned that Xiao Jiu's whereabouts had been mysterious in recent years, and he even often appeared quietly in the city walls.  Even if you knew this, no one else would be willing to live this kind of life. Besides, it also means losing power in the country  Xiaojiu's threat was difficult but easy to handle, just get rid of him, so the assassin came.
