After Xing 'er's narration, Luo Ping finally understood the cause and effect of the matter, and could not help but be shocked by the ambition of the Great Proud Nation.
However, the affairs of the world were unpredictable, and the Great Proud Nation would never have dreamt that not only did they not get the treasure, but now it was divided by the five nations.
Xing 'er's full name was Qu Xing' er, and she had an older brother named Qu Zhe. The two of them lost their parents when they were young, and had been wandering the streets, begging for a living.
Even so, the two of them did not behave like other beggars, eating, sleeping, begging, and then eating and sleeping again. Instead, whenever they had the chance, they would sneak to the nearby private school to eavesdrop on the teacher's lectures.
Because Qu Xing 'er was born intelligent, and had a photographic memory, she could always quickly remember the content of the teacher's words, so she had been very happy.
Qu Zhe could not, although he also wanted to learn, and hoped to change his destiny in the future, to be able to stand out, to be conferred the title of Marquis, and even wanted to be able to maintain world peace, however … his ability to accept was really too poor.
Qu Zhe had no choice but to find another way, and since literature did not work, then he chose martial arts. So he began to change his target, and began to secretly run to the nearby small sects and began to secretly learn martial arts.
Many people had the same idea as Qu Xing 'er, according to the normal routine, her brother could not do literature, nor could he do martial arts, but things were so melodramatic, her brother completely displayed his talent in martial arts.
Although he could not understand the meaning of the moves, but as long as it was a move that he had seen, he could immediately display it, completely blinding Qu Xing 'er and the group of beggars.
In this way, the brother and sister, while begging, while secretly learning, while practicing, lived a carefree life, but, 'when you come out, you have to pay, peeping at the window will always be discovered.'
All the beggars thought that the brother and sister would be like the set in the opera, beaten up, and then not allowed to step half a step into the private school and sect, but the reality once again played a joke on them.
The teacher of the private school and the head of the small sect, after seeing the brother and sister's ability to understand and accept, unexpectedly agreed to accept the brother and sister into their sect.
The siblings, who were originally so scared that they almost peed their pants, instantly stopped trembling, stopped bending, and retracted their 'pug dog' expressions. Instead, they held their heads high and puffed out their chests. Full of vigor, they were ready to be bold and decisive and build a beautiful new tomorrow.
At this point, the brother and sister's luck had changed. In just a few short years, they were already outstanding. The student had surpassed the master, and had completely surpassed their master.
Thus, the two of them began to pursue higher goals. One of them chose to study the art of 'Qimen Formation', while the other focused on the art of 'Condensing Qi and Breaking Through'.
Another two to three years had passed, and Qu Xing 'er had made some progress in her research. She had already gained some fame in the area, and had become a Formation Master. Although Qu Zhe had not succeeded, he had already found a direction. As long as he had enough time, he would definitely amaze the world.
However, it was precisely because of this that the two of them brought disaster. Suddenly, one day, a few masked men captured them, and threatened them that if they did not do as they were told, they would die without a complete corpse.
At this time, although Qu Zhe had the strength of a beginner Martial Master after a few years of cultivation, in the eyes of the masked men, it was still not enough. Any one of them could easily beat him a thousand times over.
Helpless, the two of them could only follow the orders of the masked men, and thus, they were secretly brought to the Fengyuan Country. Qu Xing 'er was arranged to enter the Nandan County government office, and Qu Zhe was detained by the masked men as a hostage.
The masked men's goal was for Qu Xing 'er to understand the environment of the Nandan County government office, and at the same time, find an opportunity to set up some formations in the office, and if necessary, destroy the Nandan County in one fell swoop.
… … …
"According to what you said, the masked men coincidentally heard that the government office was recruiting people, so they took the opportunity to sneak in. They should not have targeted this county from the beginning, but if they want to destroy this county, then their goal is self-evident …"
After listening to Qu Xing 'er's explanation, Luo Ping began to analyze in secret, and immediately guessed the masked men's goal.
At this time, Qu Xing 'er, who had calmed down, displayed the intelligence that she should have. After hearing Luo Ping's analysis, she immediately understood.
"Young Master, you're saying that they were not targeting a county, but all the counties in the border area, and as long as there was an opportunity, they would destroy that county?"
"Yes, that's right. That period of time was just before the Great Ao Nation was preparing to disturb the stability of the country, so they were probably preparing to force the country to do something. However, Ao Sen changed his mind and reached an agreement with the country's king, and the two countries sent troops to search for the treasure together, so the county government did not fall into a crisis."
After understanding everything, Luo Ping faintly felt a lingering fear. At that time, if Ao Sen had insisted on obtaining the treasure alone and used all the backup plans, the Nandan County would not have been able to escape.
Seeing Luo Ping's expression, Qu Xing 'er couldn't help but laugh.
"Haha, don't worry, Young Master. Even if the two countries did not reach an agreement, the Nandan County would still be fine, because whether the formation is activated or not is in this servant's hands."
When Luo Ping heard this, he knew that the other party was not lying, because when the formation was activated, only the person who set it up would know how to operate it, unless … this person's attainment in formations was much higher than the person who set it up.
"It seems that my decision was right, you are not a person who cannot distinguish between good and evil. However, if you don't listen to their orders, aren't you afraid that they will kill your brother?"
"Of course I am afraid, but I am more afraid that because of my wrong decision, countless innocent people will be harmed. Although I am not from the Wind Origin Country, I have been lonely since young, with no one to rely on. I don't want more children to be like me, losing their parents and living on the streets …"
"If my brother is killed, I will accept it, I know that my brother will not blame me, at that time, I will follow him, we brother and sister will talk again in the afterlife …"
"Good, Sister Xing 'er, based on your words, I will not regret my decision. Since the matter is clear, then I will think of a way to save your brother."
Luo Ping smiled, very satisfied with Qu Xing 'er's words, it was not a waste to let her live.
"But this servant does not know the identity and residence of the masked man, how can I save my brother?"
Qu Xing 'er was now in a dilemma, she did not know how to proceed, although she was very smart, she was not good at this kind of strange and strange thing.
Luo Ping smiled, slowly walked in front of her, stared into her eyes, and smiled evilly.
"I can help you save your brother, but … as a reward, you have to …"
Luo Ping purposely dragged out his words, causing Qu Xing 'er to tremble, she started to look at Luo Ping as if looking at a demon, her hands tightly crossed in front of her chest.
"Young … Young … Young Master, you … you … you are not that kind of person? Moreover, this servant is a few years older than you. "
"A few years older? What does that have to do with anything? "
Luo Ping was puzzled.
"How is it not related? If this servant follows you, people will say that I am an old cow eating young grass. "
Towards the end, Qu Xing 'er's voice became softer and softer, and she lowered her head shyly.
"What the hell, wake up, stop dreaming, your young master does not eat young grass, I mean, you have to teach me how to set up formations."
"Ah …"
Qu Xing 'er suddenly raised her head, but her face was even redder, it was a sign of embarrassment.
"So that's what you mean, this servant thought … Forget it, as long as young master can save my brother, this servant will teach you everything."
"Alright, it's a deal, next time when the masked man comes to contact you, let me know in advance, I will have a plan by then."
Luo Ping did not tell her his plan, because even if he did, she would not be of much help, she might even drag him down.
Seeing that she nodded, Luo Ping prepared to leave the room, wash up, meet his parents, and watch this year's County Court Challenge Tournament.
"Young Master, where are you going, do you need this servant to serve you?"
Since the matter was out in the open, Qu Xing 'er no longer had any psychological burden, she was unusually relaxed now. When she saw Luo Ping walking out, she immediately followed him.
"Young Master is going to take a bath, do you want to come too?"
After saying that, Luo Ping left without a care, leaving Qu Xing 'er, whose face had turned crimson again, standing on the spot, stomping her feet before running off quickly.
This year's County Court Challenge Tournament was the same as the previous one, the venue was the same, and the setup was basically the same. However, there were many new participants, and of course, there were also many familiar faces.
Luo Ping stood at the edge of the arena, watching for a while, and saw many familiar faces. He smiled, looked away, and began to look for Chen Xiuxiu and the others.
After parting with Qu Xing 'er, he washed up, changed into a clean set of clothes, chatted with his mother for a while, and then went to the arena for the County Court Challenge Tournament.
In fact, Chen Xiuxiu had come half a month before the County Court Challenge Tournament began. She had wanted to see if Luo Ping had changed since she had not seen him for three years, and tease him at the same time.
However, she did not expect to see Luo Ping in closed-door cultivation as soon as she arrived at the county yamen. She was so angry that she stomped her feet. However, she could not interrupt Luo Ping's closed-door cultivation as it would affect his cultivation.
She waited in boredom and anticipation for half a month, but did not see Luo Ping come out of seclusion. She could only prepare for the County Court Challenge Tournament in disappointment.
As for the others, other than Zhao Jiangbo, who had participated three times and was unable to continue, the rest were all focused on the County Court Challenge Tournament.
At this point, the County Court Challenge Tournament had been going on for a few days, and it was still in the knockout stage. Luo Ping found Chen Xiuxiu and the others without much effort, because her voice was the loudest in this area.
"Cousin Xiuxiu!"
A familiar voice that she had not heard for a long time entered her ears. Chen Xiuxiu stopped shouting, no longer paying attention to the County Court Challenge Tournament. Instead, she quickly searched for the source of the voice.
Behind her, a handsome young man in blue with a white shirt on the outside was smiling at her. Although he had become mature and muscular, Luo Ping's smile was still so warm.
"Cousin Ping!"
As soon as her voice fell, tears flowed out, covered by a curtain of mist, sparkling and translucent pearls. Thousands of thoughts, thousands of thoughts, meeting in the morning, mutual feelings in each other's hearts!
At this time, Chen Xiuxiu was already eighteen years old. She was no longer as petty as before, and had become more mature and beautiful. Not only had she grown taller, but her figure had also become more exquisite and graceful.
At this moment, as she cried, the pair of treasures in front of her chest uncontrollably moved up and down. Seeing this, Luo Ping was slightly stunned. He did not expect that after three years, she had changed so much. It was true that one could not judge a book by its cover.
With a faint smile, Luo Ping took the initiative to walk over. Similarly, Chen Xiuxiu also moved. Behind her, Chen Tong and the others also saw Luo Ping and smiled in return.
