Chapter 94 Little Maid Qinglian

The next morning, Xiao Yuan, who had a good night's sleep instead of practicing, opened his eyes.

Feeling the alcohol remaining in his body, he curled his lips helplessly, then sat cross-legged and began to circulate his fighting spirit. After a while, he opened his mouth and spit out a breath of alcohol, and his eyes became much clearer.

Last night, relying on the powerful function of his internal organs, Xiao Yuan forced his two brothers and some brothers from the mercenary group to drink under the table.

However, he also accumulated a lot of alcohol in his body, and after a good sleep, he didn't even completely digest it.

Fortunately, in this world, fighting spirit is simply omnipotent.

"Squeak."

At this time, the door was pushed open, and a pretty figure walked in cautiously. However, when she saw Xiao Yuan sitting on the bed and looking at her, she was startled, and hurriedly bowed and greeted timidly:

"Master Xiao Yuan, you are awake!"

Xiao Yuan looked at the girl in a light green dress in front of him. She was petite but well-developed, and could be called a curvy girl. He smiled kindly, nodded, and said, "Well, I am awake. What is your name?"

Hearing this, the girl was slightly stunned, and then she gently placed the basin in her hand on the wooden rack outside the bed, and whispered, "My name is Qinglin, and I am here to help the young master wash."

"Haha, there is no need to trouble you, I can do it myself."

Shaking his head with a smile, Xiao Yuan got out of bed and came to the wooden rack, and washed carefully.

Seeing that Xiao Yuan had finished washing, Qinglin began to tiptoe, took the clothes on the hanger, and prepared to help Xiao Yuan put on his clothes.

When she raised her hand, her snow-white wrist, which was exposed from her sleeve, reflected a little green light. Looking closely, it turned out that there were some green snake scales growing on it.

These scales should have looked abrupt on a human, but on Qinglin's body, they looked quite harmonious and had a strange beauty.

Qinglin took off her clothes, turned her head and saw Xiao Yuan's interested eyes, and subconsciously followed him to look over. Then her eyes stayed on her arm that was inadvertently exposed. Suddenly, her little face turned pale, and she quickly pulled up her sleeves to cover her arms. Her delicate body trembled slightly, and her eyes were filled with water vapor.

?

Seeing this, Xiao Yuan knew that the poor girl must have been a little stressed. He walked over and rubbed her cute little head without waiting for Qinglin to speak. Then he said softly: "I don't like the name Qinglin. I decided to change your name to Qinglian, which means to be untainted by mud and clean and not evil. What do you think?" Looking at Xiao Yuan's gentle eyes, Qinglin was a little absent-minded. A strange feeling emerged in her weak heart that had been bullied since childhood. She blinked her watery eyes that faintly exuded some strange charm. She was about to say something but stopped, but nodded timidly. But she couldn't help thinking in her heart: Although the name Qinglian is indeed much better than Qinglin, but... The meaning of the sentence that the young master said sounded so strange, and I didn't quite understand what it meant. Seeing the faint doubt in Qinglian's eyes, Xiao Yuan reacted for a while before coming back to his senses, explaining helplessly:

"It means that the lotus grows from the mud but is not polluted, and it does not look charming after being washed by clear water."

"Master, are you not afraid?"

Qinglian bit her red lips lightly and asked cautiously.

"Hehe, what are you afraid of? Can you eat me?"

Xiao Yuan spread his arms and motioned Qinglian to put clothes on him.

Qinglian immediately understood and walked up obediently to put clothes on Xiao Yuan, whispering:

"Everyone hates me. Some kind-hearted people will be afraid and disgusted when they see the scales on my body."

Qinglian's tone was full of sadness. Obviously, she has not had an easy life in these years.

"Haha, it's not your fault. Generally speaking, people like you can't live past two years old. Being able to grow up this big is a miracle of life. So, you should enjoy this wonderful world. You are more qualified than anyone else to live well. As for other people's opinions, you don't have to care. As long as you know what you want and work hard, the meaning of your life is up to you. It's not a mistake for you to be alive. If someone wants you to die because of your background, or even really wants to take action, then what you have to do is not to cry and wait for death, but to find a way to kill him. Do you understand?" Xiao Yuan put on his clothes and said with a gentle smile. "Ah?" Qinglian was a little confused when she heard such an eye-opening theory for the first time. "In short, you are definitely right. It is their business that they hate you. After all, the human race and the snake race have been in constant conflict for many years, and the hatred accumulated over the years has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

But you must not hate yourself. If you even want to give up on yourself, then there is really no hope. You are a pretty little girl. I always like pretty girls. If you are willing, stay with me and be a maid."

Seeing this, Xiao Yuan rubbed her confused head and walked out of the house.

Qinglian, who had never been treated so gently, was stunned in place. After a moment, a silly smile bloomed on her face, and three extremely tiny green dots slowly emerged in her pupils.

Afterwards, she came to her senses, picked up the basin, chased out, and shouted sweetly with a smile:

"Master! Wait for me!"

Here, Xiao Yuan, under the service of a considerate little maid, practiced step by step every day. When he got interested, he took the little maid to visit Shimo City.

Occasionally, he would take Qinglian out with the mercenary team to stretch his muscles.

On the other side, Xiao Yan practiced much harder.

After getting the map about the strange fire news from Hai Bodong, he followed the path on the map, practiced and moved forward, and finally arrived at the first place where the strange fire might exist.

I searched for two days and found nothing!

However, under Yao Lao's training, his cultivation progress was quite good.

But he still didn't dare to relax.

Before leaving Mocheng, he learned from Hai Bodong that his third brother had broken through to five stars.

All I can say is, it’s so terrifying!

He even seriously doubted that maybe by the time he met his third brother, he would be a six-star fighting master.

"Teacher, are we being fooled by that old man?"

After sighing, Xiao Yan said helplessly.

"Well... I don't know. The terrain around here is no different from other places, and I can't feel any strange movement anywhere."

Yao Lao slowly fell down and said helplessly.

"How about going to Stone Desert City first? My eldest brother and second brother have been here for some years. They are more familiar with the terrain here than us. Maybe we can get some insights."

After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Yan asked.

"Okay."

Yao Lao pondered for a moment after hearing the words and nodded.

"Master, well, you haven't slept yet!"

In the early morning, Qinglian pushed open the door and looked at Xiao Yuan, who was wearing only a single suit and posing in a cultivation posture. He slowly opened his eyes, blinked his big watery eyes, and said softly.

"Haha, I'm used to it. If I don't practice for a day, my whole body will feel weak."

Xiao Yuan smiled and got off the bed, and put on the white robe under Qinglian's soft and tender hands.

"Young master is so diligent."

Qinglian said with a smile upon hearing this.

"Haha, I can't help it, I don't dare not be diligent!"

Xiao Yuan smiled lightly and shrugged.

"Young master is already very strong."

Qinglian muttered.

"Not enough. In this Jia Ma Empire, the Dou Huang level is really strong. What does a mere Dou Master mean? If we look at the entire continent, Dou Huang is not considered a strong person.

Sometimes I think about it, at what level can one be considered strong after cultivating this fighting spirit? Douzong? Dou Zun, or Dou Sage? Haha, as long as there are people above who can threaten my life, I feel that I am not a strong person.

Therefore, I must cultivate to a state of invincibility. At that time, maybe I can relax, right? "

Xiao Yuan was in a daze and couldn't help but sigh.

Listening to Xiao Yuan's heroic words, Qinglian's little mouth opened slightly, and a look of admiration appeared in her eyes.

Young Master Xiao Yuan is really attractive.

"Come on, let's go for a walk. I'm in a good mood today and I feel like something good will happen."

Xiao Yuan said with a smile.

"Yes, please, Master."

Qinglian quickly ran to the door, opened it, and smiled playfully.

"Haha, you girl."

Xiao Yuan smiled when he saw this, shook his head, and walked out of the door.

Today is the strength test of the Motie Mercenary Group every three months. Those who perform well in the test will be qualified to organize a team of their own, and thus can be promoted to become a captain.

This kind of healthy competition has caused the strength of the members to grow rapidly, and has also made the overall strength of the Motie Mercenary Group always far ahead of other mercenary groups in Shimo City.

This assessment-like system was proposed by Xiao Ding and gradually improved after discussing it with Xiao Yuan through letters many times.

Along the way, there were quite a few regiment members who had gotten up late and were running. When they saw Xiao Yuan, they would respectfully call out to the third regiment leader.

In these days, Xiao Yuan's strength has gradually become known to the public and won the respect of the members. Therefore, when they see Qinglian who has been taken by Xiao Yuan, their original disgust has also restrained a lot, and even some People will also smile quite kindly.

This personal experience made Qinglian clearly realize for the first time how important it is to have strength.

Xiao Yuan's strength naturally meant that he would not take part in such a test. It would be bullying, so he was not in a hurry. He chatted and laughed with Qinglian and walked towards the backyard.

However, just as he was about to step into the backyard, he suddenly raised his eyebrows and a look of joy appeared in his eyes.

Immediately, he grabbed Qinglian, and there was a cold texture in his hand, as if he had touched the scales on her wrist.

However, Xiao Yuan didn't pay attention. He pulled the petite girl into his arms with a gentle pull. Immediately, green light appeared all over his body, and his body turned into flying catkins.

Qinglian felt like she was being pulled into a warm and broad arm, and then her eyes flashed as she arrived at the gate of the Motie Mercenary Group.

?

After being stunned for a moment, she felt the warm hands on her waist and the warm bosom in front of her. Her pretty face blushed slightly, and she raised her head and looked at her young master's face.

"Qinglian, stay here first."

I saw my young master smiling and rubbing his head, then walked towards the door.

Outside the door, Xiao Yan had just walked to the door, preparing to enter the Motie Mercenary Group, when he saw Xiao Yuan walking up to him.

"elder brother!?"

Xiao Yan's face showed joy and he quickly stepped forward.

"You came so quickly! I was wondering if I had to wait another two months!"

Xiao Yuan gave Xiao Yan a hug and said with a smile.

"Hey, it's a long story!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yan had a look on his face that he couldn't bear to look back on, and he said with some regret.

"Third regiment commander, this is? Fourth regiment commander?"

A familiar voice came from the side. Xiao Yuan looked and saw that it was the Danzi who had been rescued by him before.

"Well, this kid is also a fighting master. You are not unfair to shouting at the fourth regiment commander! If you don't say anything, I will take him in first."

Xiao Yuan smiled and nodded, then looked at Xiao Yan, patted his shoulder and said:

"You came just in time. The eldest brother and the second brother are both inside. Let's go!"

Pulling Xiao Yan into the door, Qinglian had not yet recovered from the warm embrace of her young master. She stood there with a dull look in her eyes.

"Let's go Qinglian, let's go to the backyard."

Seeing that Qinglian was a little confused, Xiao Yuan simply stretched out his hand to hold her wrist and walked towards the backyard.

"Third brother, what is this?"

Xiao Yan looked at the petite Qing Lian with confusion.

When did the third brother's aesthetics devolve to this age group?

"My little maid, named Qinglian, is quite talented. I'll tell you later."

After Xiao Yuan gave a simple explanation, he pulled the two of them and hurried into the backyard.

As soon as the three of them entered the backyard, they were greeted by loud noises. There were hundreds of people fighting in the training ground. Everyone in the audience was shouting with excitement. In some places, they even started betting on the final outcome. Who are the five people who persisted?

"Well, the eldest brother and the second brother are up there."

Xiao Yuan pointed to the high platform opposite the training ground and smiled at Xiao Yan.

Hearing this, Xiao Yan was slightly startled, and then he looked up, and sure enough he saw Xiao Ding and Xiao Li sitting on the high platform, looking at the familiar figures of the two brothers, his nose was a little bit... Sour.

After not seeing each other for so many years, I really miss them!

As if they felt the gazes of Xiao Yan and Xiao Yuan, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li also cast their gazes over, and then, a look of surprise appeared in their eyes.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Yan's eyes couldn't help but feel moist. He blinked, suppressing the sourness in his eyes, and smiled at his two brothers.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Yuan saw with some amusement that Xiao Li pointed at the field below, and then pointed at Xiao Yan.

"Second brother said, do you dare to gesticulate with him? It seems that he is preparing to test you."

Xiao Yuan smiled and bumped Xiao Yan with his shoulder and said.

"Why isn't this a contest with you, third brother?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan looked at his third brother and said with a wry smile.

"Because the eldest brother and the second brother had a fight with me in private. They both went up together, but I knocked them down."

Xiao Yuan shrugged and said innocently.

However, what he said was actually about drinking and not about sparring, but Xiao Yan definitely couldn't guess that.

"Oh, that's okay!"

Xiao Yan muttered helplessly when he heard this, and then nodded towards Xiao Li.

Seeing this, Xiao Li also nodded, lowered his head and said something to Xiao Ding beside him, then jumped off the high platform and stood firmly in the field.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan had no choice but to jump into the arena.

"Master, you have obviously never competed with the two captains!"

Qinglian gradually came back to her senses and looked at Xiao Yuan as if she was watching a big scam.

"Drinking is considered gesticulation. Look, five leaders, six six six."

Xiao Yuan showed an expression that said this was wrong, and immediately made a fist gesture.

Qinglian sighed upon seeing this, covered her face with her little hands helplessly, and lowered her head.

Seeing her cute gesture, Xiao Yuan also smiled knowingly and couldn't help but rub her little head again.

Xiao Li's loud laughter came from the audience, and with the spread of fighting spirit, it directly suppressed the noise around the training ground.

"Little Yanzi, it's better to rush early than to rush late. Today is a good time to see how much progress this little genius in your family has made in the past few years!"

"Second Captain! Second Captain!"

Hearing Xiao Li's loud shout, the surrounding crowd was slightly stunned, and then shouted excitedly, and suddenly, waves of fanatical shouts around the training ground merged into a wave of sound, soaring into the sky.

Looking at the dense crowd in front of her, Qinglian's green eyes rolled, then she raised her head, pouted, and said pitifully to Xiao Yuan:

"Master, I can't see inside."

"Haha, let's go up there and take a look."

When Xiao Yuan heard this, he put his arms around Qinglian's delicate waist and floated out.

But he didn't notice that a look of satisfaction appeared on Qinglian's crimson face, and she took the opportunity to cling to his chest again, sniffing his scent greedily.
