Chapter 378 My Brother’s Letter

Without thinking too much, he took out two boxes from the storage ring and packed them separately.

She tilted her head and raised her hand to touch the head of the little white dragon hanging on her shoulder: "Well done."

"Awoo..." The little white dragon opened his mouth and a tiny sound came out of it.

Some of them sound like the barking of a puppy, which is very cute.

Three days had passed since I left home. When I came back, Chu Wenxuan and the others had already returned. They all had varying degrees of injuries, which was terrible.

The one who was most seriously injured was Xiao Xiao, who is still unconscious. I heard that he was seriously injured.

Chu Wenxuan and Aljie were also seriously injured, but they were better off than Xiao Xiao.

The two seemed to have some conflict, and even though they saw each other every time they looked up or down, they didn't even look at each other.

Especially Alger, he looked at Chu Wenxuan with anger.

At this time, Zhan Kongming, Xiang Tingqin, Chu Wenxuan, Aljie, Chi Feng and Huahua were in the study listening to Chujiu telling about what he had found out at the Xu family.

Zhan Kongming stroked his beard and thought, "The Xu family is heavily guarded, and there are also Mojia gangs. Amu Da is an important hostage to them, and they will definitely not let him go easily. You can't force your way in."

Several people fell into silence.

After a moment, Xiang Tingqin sighed: "Amuda's life is not in danger for the time being. Since you want him to join the Demon-Slaying Army, Xu Jiading will not make it too difficult for him."

Several people nodded in agreement.

"Oh, good disciple." Zhan Kongming thought of something and looked at Chujiu, "Did Mo send any news about when he will be back?"

Chujiu shook his head solemnly, "No news has come from him since he left."

This is what she worries about most.

Although Mo Xinglan is not injured now, there is no guarantee that he will not encounter a demon as powerful as Yu You, and it is also unknown what Tian Yi and the others think of him.

"The master is so powerful, he will be fine." Chi Feng saw Chujiu's worry and comforted him.

Chujiu looked at him helplessly and smiled: "You really believe in him."

Having said that, I also believed in my heart that Mo Xinglan would be fine.

Chi Feng said seriously: "Although I have never made a contract with the master, I believe in the master's strength. Basically, no demon dares to disobey the master."

Chujiu's expression eased and he forced a smile. He was mainly afraid that what he encountered was not a demon, but a human.

There are always people who are better than you. No matter how powerful Mo Xinglan is or how much he has experienced, he is still only in his teens. Some of his experience is still inferior to that of old monsters who have lived for a long time.

At this time, Huahua, who had been silent, was shocked: "So you didn't sign a contract with the young master!"

Chi Feng looked down at her with disdain and said proudly, "Not everything requires a contract. I am willing to submit to my master. What do you know?"

"Tsk!" Huahua rolled her eyes at him. "I think it's because I've cultivated faster by staying with the young master."

Chi Feng also looked contemptuous: "You speak as if you are not the same."

Hua Hua's eyes flashed, and she immediately raised her head and chest and said confidently: "Of course not. I followed the little master because he is the master's child. The master is gone, so I naturally have to assist the little master. You know shit!"

"Assist?" Chi Feng said disdainfully, "How can I remember that you just sat beside the master and ate and drank and took advantage of the master's spiritual energy? You even ate the food that woman gave to the master, and you still have the nerve to say that you assisted the master."

"You talk as if you didn't eat or drink for free, or take advantage of the spiritual energy of the young master." Huahua stretched her neck and glared at him.

Chujiu held his forehead and interrupted the quarrel between the two: "Okay, stop arguing."

The two men snorted at each other and turned their heads away without looking at each other.

At this moment, Chi Feng thought of something and looked at Chu Jiu expectantly: "How about I go to that Piao Miao Territory to find the master?"

"I'm going too, I'm going too." Huahua raised her hands and jumped, afraid that she was not tall enough and Chujiu couldn't see her.

Chi Feng slapped Hua Hua's raised hand away and said, "I said it first."

Hua Hua covered her hurt hand and glared at him angrily: "So what if you said it first? I have a mouth and you don't care about it."

Chujiu was speechless: "Okay, okay, you two can go together."

I finally understand why Xingxing asked them to come to Hualing to inquire about the news.

"Ah? It's me and him/her again?!" they both said in unison.

Chujiu glared over and asked, "Any opinions?"

"without……"

The two of them had no choice but to hang their heads dejectedly.

The others watched the scene in silence.

Zhan Kongming smiled and said, "The obedient disciple has changed a lot."

"Huh?" Chujiu asked in confusion.

Xiang Tingqin nodded in agreement, smiling without saying anything.

"Grown up." Chu Wenxuan smiled gently.

Chujiu's face suddenly turned red, and she touched the back of her head embarrassedly and murmured in a low voice: "You make me sound like a child before."

“Haha…” Alger laughed and interjected, “Come to think of it, I have to thank Little Nine for saving my little sister’s life last time in Piaomiao Domain.”

"Hehehe, she and I are good sisters, so it's my duty to save her." Chujiu laughed.

Just when she was feeling embarrassed, she heard Alger say in a complicated tone, "But, I heard from my younger sister that she was harmed by Mo Xinglan at that time?"

"Um... this..." Chujiu's eyes flashed, and he took a deep breath, "Actually, it's not his fault. Although he was the one who did it, it was all because of me."

The others looked surprised; they had no idea there was such a thing.

"Because of you? Why?" Alger was puzzled.

"This..." Chujiu thought for a while, but couldn't speak, "Just, just me..."

How to explain this? Saying that he has an extreme and stubborn temper, and that he dislikes anyone she likes and cares about, and wants to kill that person?

If they really said that, the impression of Xingxing in their hearts would definitely be greatly reduced.

"You? What's wrong with you?" Xiang Tingqin became anxious when she saw that she took a long time to finish her words.

Several others also stared at her.

Chujiu hesitated for a while, "It's just... I... I was in a bad mood during that period, and I wasn't nice to him, just... Anyway, I was very, very mean to him. And then, just..."

Ah! How can I put this? No matter how I put it, they will think that Xingxing has a bad personality.

"Just what? What do you mean by being very bad to him? Did you hurt him?" Xiang Tingqin became anxious.

"Oh, just..." She spoke anxiously, not knowing how to say it without lowering Mo Xinglan's favorability in their eyes.

He swallowed and said, "Because I treated him very badly, really badly, and hurt him. Not only did his injuries get worse, but I also said a lot of excessive words. That stimulated him, and he lost control, and that's why he hurt Xiao Xiao."

Speaking of this, she was a little depressed. She lowered her head like a child who had done something wrong and murmured: "I was very angry when I saw him hurt Xiao Xiao. I was so angry that I hurt him with the Lingyun Whip..."

As he spoke, his voice became smaller and smaller.

After hearing this, several people sighed but did not continue to ask questions. They knew that Chujiu must be in a bad mood at this time.

After a moment, Alger sighed: "In that case, I won't settle the score with him."

“Hehe…” Chujiu was stunned for a moment, then looked at him gratefully.

Fortunately, he didn't plan to settle the score with Xingxing, otherwise she would have to save him.

After the discussion, everyone went about their own business.

Chi Feng and Hua Hua went to Piao Miao Territory to find Mo Xing Lan, while Chu Jiu went secretly to find Lu Luo.

"She has been staying quietly in the house these past few days, occasionally going out for a walk, and there doesn't seem to be anything unusual." Luoluo felt a little defeated as she hadn't found out anything.

Chujiu noticed her depressed mood and rubbed her head: "Okay, Xu Lian is a little bit overwhelmed for you, don't worry. You have done very well."

"Yeah." Luoluo nodded, but still felt depressed.

If she works harder in the future, she will definitely be able to help her sister.

A few days passed and Xu Lianna began to show some movement.

That day, Xu Lian took advantage of everyone being busy and quietly entered the study to start searching.

Soon she found a letter, opened it and read the contents. Suddenly, a hint of gloating and mockery appeared on the corner of her mouth.

He returned the letter to its original place and continued searching. Finally, he found a defense map and quietly left with it.

It seemed as if no one had ever been in the study.

Xu Lian thought she had done it without anyone noticing, but she didn't expect that a young girl appeared in the corner of the study just after she left.

Chujiu curled the corner of his mouth slightly and glanced in the direction Xu Lian left, then walked to the place where he had just placed the letter.

She was quite curious about the content of the letter.

Take the letter in your hand and read it.

The cover of the letter reads "From my brother personally" and the content is:

I hope you can forgive me for making such a ridiculous decision. When you see this letter, I may not be here anymore. Thank you for saving my life. If you hadn't appeared, I'm afraid I would have been a dry bone.

It is my life's honor to be able to be with my brother all these years. He has always protected me, and now I want to do something for him.

It's a pity that Furong has a miserable life. She lost her mother to take care of her when she was born, and she lost her father in just one month. If possible, I hope my brother can help to comfort her. This is my last wish.

If I can still survive after this incident, I will definitely assist my brother for the rest of my life. If I cannot survive, I will be able to see Fuer as I wish.

The signature is: Xiao Qiyuan.

Chujiu was so shocked that even the hand holding the envelope was shaking slightly.

After a moment, he noticed someone approaching and quickly put the things back where they were.

Could the Furong mentioned in it be Chu Furong?

If you think about it carefully, although Chu Furong and the original owner were born two years apart, if you look closely, you can't see any similarities between Chu Furong and the original owner. Does Chu Furong know this?

Just as I was thinking about it, the door was opened. It was Xiang Tingqin.

"How about it?"

Chujiu came to his senses and looked towards the source of the sound, took a deep breath and put aside what he had just written in the letter.

"She came here and took away the defense map."

Xiang Tingqin nodded, noticing Chujiu's strangeness, and asked in confusion: "What's wrong with you? You look uneasy."

Chujiu was shocked and shook his head quickly: "No, I was just wondering how Xu Lian would send the defense map out."
