The puppets' stage play

Chapter 393 A ray of surprise

"Hmm, so, is that person named Qingye really dead like that?"

Xi Shou's eyes flickered. Although there was a sweet smile on her face, she was a little angry in her heart. She dared to target her master. If that person still existed, then... a flash of light flashed in her eyes. Cold light.

As for being moved...unfortunately, she didn't understand it.

"That's right, dead." Qi Xiu raised his hand and picked up a thin yellowish leaf on the side. His fingertips rubbed the veins on it, but his eyes seemed a little far away.

"I was really nothing at that time. Whether it was my cultivation or my mind, I was not qualified."

"Even though Aono was just trying to hold his breath at that time, I still didn't have any chance of winning. Although I saved the glory of the school in terms of the result, I understand that whether it was Zapota or Kilf, they Neither can win."

Qi Xiu came back to his senses, put down the leaf, and shook his head gently.

"The same goes for Belusa. She was not good at attacking at that time. Among the students present, the only one who could deal with Qingye was Xuchang."

"It sounds like this guy named Xuchang is better than that Leo." The flawless white beast complained, feeling that there must be adultery between the two.

Qi Xiu glanced at the other party, and the flawless white beast suddenly showed a well-behaved expression.

"It was limited to that time. After the Xu family was almost destroyed and the Li family was highly bound, the alliance between the two even spread to the interactions of the younger generations. It is not surprising that Xuchang did that."

He briefly explained that although he didn't know it in the past, now, he can still easily know this level of information.

"Then, since that person showed such 'vigor', wouldn't there be any strong people tempted by him?" Golden Butterfly suddenly spoke, a trace of doubt appearing on his small face.

She didn't think that with the strength of the Federation's strong men, it would be impossible to resurrect a dead person. In her understanding, as long as it was something of value, it must be continued.

"Firstly, it is explicitly forbidden, and secondly..." Qi Xiu shook his head, his eyes became sharp, "Qingye is essentially just relying on the extra years of training to suppress it. If we are the same age, he It just seems ordinary.”

Different from the five-year system of Star School, the pasture on the plateau starts from the age of four and lasts until the age of ten.

"Besides, his intentions were impure and were essentially the work of the teacher. It was impossible for the latter to let him go back safely. It can be said that his end was already doomed from the moment he appeared there."

Qi Xiu's tone was firm, especially in the subsequent exchanges with the teacher. In the following years, he also vaguely understood this point.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Even if he comes back to life again, I will not be afraid. Instead, I will defeat him. In the years to come, those guys will always be remembered."

Qi Xiu smiled, his eyes turning cold.

"If the other party really appears now, it will definitely become lively immediately. Those who have defeated it really remember it deeply, and they even want to knock the other party over four to five hundred times."

Qi Xiu sneered. Once upon a time, he had also thought about this. That kind of victory was not what he wanted. After that time, everyone's strange looks and words with a sense of distance still stuck in his mind. in memory.

"..." At some point, Xi Shou's expression became calm. She looked at Qi Xiu steadily, the waves in her eyes kept floating, and the master... became more and more interested. People are angry.

The flawless white beast was thoughtful, while the golden butterfly said oh, and his expression became cold again.

"Let's go, there's no use for me here anymore."

Carefully experiencing the cooling emotion, a flash of light flashed in Qi Xiu's eyes, as if a dense aura was settling down. Looking from a distance, it gave people a solid feeling.

He turned around and walked towards the outside. The three people behind him turned into different lights and merged into his body.

Not long after, he walked outside and turned around to look back. This place was just like before. Inside the simple door, there was a 'secret room' carefully built by the predecessors.

"..." Facing the oblique front, he nodded, turned around, and walked forward with a normal expression.

On the road, people from various major legions have set up checkpoints, and patrolling people can be seen everywhere. Some have long ears on their heads, and some are jumping up and down. Unlike in the center of the city, people here have returned to their original postures and are cheerful. Wave to him.

He responded politely one by one. In the past, these foreigners lived here, and this was their only residence. But now, they basically live together with the people of the original Federation.

Because there are magic techniques such as spirit transformation and transformation, you generally can't see the difference. Maybe the bold and powerful man drinking heavily with you will turn into a furry bear in the next second. This kind of thing is considered very strange. Common.

Children waving their arms and making big bird shapes passed by him. Amid laughter, the sound of flapping wings came from behind. He raised his eyes slightly, and a row of small birds with white wings suddenly flew up in the sky.

There were several "savages" with vertical hair who were dancing like great gods. They were only slightly covered with some cloth. They chanted obscure words in their mouths. As they shouted in unison, the can in the middle emitted a black stream. cigarette.

Qi Xiu stopped. If there was really any illegal action going on, he still had to intervene, for example, by howling at the sky.

"It's not good, this." The man with golden patterns on his face was sweating profusely.

"It's terrible, it's terrible, it's my savings." His legs weakened, and the man who fell to the ground was the man with the black crane painted on his face.

"Don't panic. At times like this, you have to stay calm." The man's face was sullen, his lips were trembling, and the voice of the man who turned into a pink antenna was trembling.

Qi Xiu thought for a while and continued to move forward. He remembered that this was cooking, it was no big deal. He shook his hand in the air and continued to move forward without changing his expression.

A strong gust of wind blew by, and the dark-faced guards rushed forward like tigers and wolves. In an instant, they arrested the three people who were running away with their heads in their hands. The leader glanced at the man who was walking away, and his eyes suddenly felt a little surprised.

"Captain, how did you know?" The team member on the side came up and pointed at the three of them, with surprise in his eyes.

The three of them really didn't do anything evil. They were indeed cooking. However, if this method of cooking failed, the consequences would be extremely...

Recalling the records in the document about that "stinking place" where humans and animals would disappear within a few years, the team members couldn't help but feel a little fear in their hearts.

The captain smiled and didn't say much. Things about the enthusiastic crowd should still be kept confidential. He looked at the three people who were silent, and his eyes gradually became cold.

"Plundering nature and seizing heaven's secrets. This kind of man-made 'heavenly material' will cause endless disasters and endanger future generations. Please calculate your savings carefully. If it is not enough, work hard for me."

The three of them nodded with a grimace, feeling a trace of regret in their hearts, but if it happens next time... they still dare.

After all, this time it was just a failure, but if it succeeded, it would promote the improvement of nearby spiritual intelligence. It was a method that was beneficial to the world, but it was left behind by most people because of the troublesome consequences of failure.

The captain could tell what they were thinking at a glance, but he did not reprimand them. It was right to want to improve, but using the wrong method was wrong. It seemed that it was better to let the coolie manager train these guys more.

If he gained enough growth, he would probably give up this idea. After thinking about it, he raised his hand and opened his mouth.

"Close the team!"

Qi Xiu was walking on the road, and he didn't bother to look at what happened next. These people were those who did not dare to explore other worlds and tried to avoid it by paying fines. The Federation did not punish such people too much.

As long as you can give them a fine, you can let them mess up if you want.

After all, as the federation continues to grow stronger, the rules that initially required everyone to go out for adventure are gradually blunted. As the upper level, they do not lack some weak people at all, but they lack a new generation that is strong enough.

Therefore, if someone is really willing to be mediocre, the superiors will naturally be too lazy to care about it and will only train those who are still motivated.

As far as Qi Xiu himself is concerned, he does not understand these people and does not want to understand. He just wants to go step by step at his own pace and move forward firmly and forcefully, so as to gain enough strength to complete the ultimate goal.

A gust of cold wind came and hit my face.

"Mum..." A slightly low mumble sounded, and there was also a panicked voice in it.

He squinted his eyes and looked to the side, where there was a 'beautiful' scenery.

It has a brown horn that looks like a colorful dumpling, with a pair of small wings on both sides. At this moment, the watery face is full of fear, and there are full of teardrops on both sides. .

It was the cub of Zen Lao Tuo, and this message suddenly flashed in his mind.

"Little ancestors, don't cry, I can do anything, please, please!" The ordinary-looking middle-aged man had an eager face, lying on the ground with his hands in the air, as if he didn't know what to do.

Oh, it's an 'animal tamer', Qi Xiu thought emotionlessly in his heart.

Dong-dong-dong, loud sounds came from the distance, like the sound of a mallet hitting a distant bell, and there was a faint sound of exhalation mixed with it.

The middle-aged man immediately looked into the distance, the look of fear on his face getting worse. His arms were shaking, and a flash of determination flashed in his eyes. He quickly took out something wrapped in silver paper, a blood-red pill. Glowing slightly.

A trace of reluctance flashed in his eyes, and he sent the opponent under him, then stood up suddenly, smiled at the stunned little Zen beast, and then ran away with an increasingly violent roar behind him. .

Not long after, Lao Tuo, a Zen-like man with heavy steps and an almost human-like appearance, stepped forward and picked up the little beast. It glanced sideways, blew out a stream of white air from its mouth, and crushed the pill to pieces with a kick, with a little reluctance. The beast turned and left.

("...Well, Master, if I read correctly, that person is the puppet master.")

Listening to Xi Shou's hesitant voice, Qi Xiu chose to reject it without hesitation.

"No, just a 'tamer'."

That kind of shameful thing, he doesn't think of it as a puppet master. Yes, even if the other party is the orthodox now, he will say so. In the past, after problems occurred in the hometown of puppets, which was the source of the puppet master's profession, the puppet master Suddenly it plummeted.

Originally, in the eyes of others, puppet masters were able to fight (with puppets) and were elegant (without having to participate in battles), so it was a very promising profession.

However, after losing the most critical material, the puppet masters became unable to fight, had no grace, and even became the laughingstock of others.

For every professional, whenever there is gossip, there must be a puppeteer who is responsible for the jokes.

For example, because he wanted to attract the cubs, he was chased and beaten half a street by the mother beast.

Because he wanted to make a contract with the cubs, he ended up selling his physical strength to deliver goods for others. Facing the defeated generals of the past, he could only show a smile on his face.

Not only the new entrants and some veterans, but also those who were originally at the top of the puppet masters, relied on some connections in the past to barely regain some strength, and were laughed at by many professionals as combat power pendants. Well, they tend to be more powerful. The cumbersome kind.

There was a heated discussion on the Internet, thinking that if the contracted beasts were not hindered by the puppet master, they would be stronger and there would be no need to worry about their 'weaknesses'.

Although a few people refuted it, the beast was carefully cultivated by the puppet master, otherwise it would not be so strong, and the puppet master itself is still very useful.

But he was ridiculed by everyone who saw him. The person who spoke must be a puppet master. What kind of training is it? Isn't it just accompanying him on the streets, going out, and accompanying the escorts he calls? !

Well, due to the Federation's own philosophy, as long as they can join, they will not refuse the power of the aliens. Therefore, in the eyes of everyone, the puppet masters are a group of liars, and they will suppress the labor of the aliens with some small favors.

Therefore, among the people of the Federation, there are three major taboos.

Always respect the president.

Take the initiative to avoid contact with restricted objects.

Being sneaky is a puppet master. He has a sly smile. He is a puppet master. He has evil intentions. He is a puppet master. Stay away from the puppet master. Everyone is responsible.

Qi Xiu couldn't help but think of the person named 'Yu Xiuzhi'. The other person was indeed very strong and had developed the puppet master's career to the limit. But then, as the two sides went to war, the puppet master became lonely.

The federation has given a solution, which is to sign contracts with some new alien races that have joined the federation, or those members of the old alien races that have not grown enough, and both parties will make progress together.

However, due to the nature of the puppeteers, they are more nurturing, which has certain consequences.

The interests of the alien beast that has grown significantly and the puppet master who has made slight progress but not much are not the same. Although they have a subordinate relationship in name, they are equal personalities in the federation. .

Therefore, the puppet master who was unable to resist had no choice but to comply with the opponent's arrangements, and the name of the combat pendant became more and more popular.

It is said that orthodox puppet masters are researching things like demon puppets in the hope of solving this embarrassing situation. However, Qi Xiu thinks there is little hope, otherwise, the Federation will not promote the emergence of heterogeneous puppet masters. .

Compared with the orthodox side, the fact that they can progress together with the contract beasts and promote each other has attracted the attention of many alien races that lack strength. However, because of this, the orthodox side is also extremely hostile to this side.

Both sides gave each other nicknames.

'barbarian'.

‘Animal Tamer’.

As a new outlier, Qi Xiu accepted this naturally.

(“I have a brother who often says that he is ugly, lazy in cooking, and likes to brag all day long...”)

The flawless white beast was idle and bored, sharing the joys of his compatriots. It was said that he was deceived by an orthodox puppet master. Every time he came back, he would curse with resentment. Thanks to it, he only knew it when he was still young. to the dangers of the world.

Golden Butterfly listened attentively. She thought that she must write it down and warn her people to be careful of those bad people.

Xi Shou didn't care, they were just some guys who lied a lot. They were the most familiar with a race that could detect other people's hearts, and they wouldn't be deceived at all... Her heart moved, and she inexplicably remembered a certain person who always exuded... A gloomy boss.

It can't be...impossible, impossible, she comforted herself, putting this matter aside, it was simply scary.

Qi Xiu looked far away, the sunset was about to set on the horizon, but he still had to walk towards the next day, which was not far away.

In the next world, try to be more 'impulsive', he secretly decided.

Boom.

There was thunder in the distance and dark clouds descended. Qi Xiu raised his eyes and looked up, his eyes shining brightly.

A deep, bright silver flashed in his eyes, and then fell silent.
