Then let them show their loyalty!

Chapter 692 How did Qiu Tu know? (asking for monthly votes)

I have to say that Qinglan is definitely a good employee of the new era. Well, the kind of employee who treats himself especially well.

Even though Qiu Tu had just painted a rosy picture and offered benefits, she still became alert the moment he opened his mouth to assign tasks.

She put the pancake Qiu Tu gave her into her arms, and after making sure Qiu Tu would not snatch it back, she looked at Qiu Tu with her big watery eyes and said, "Qiu Tu, do you know what I was most afraid of when I was in the Mist Hidden Society?"

Qiu Tu was stunned for a moment, then asked curiously, "What?"

Qinglan's face swelled up like a bun, "What I fear most is that Tianqi will come to chat with me."

"As soon as we chatted, he said that the Kirigakure was in a bad state recently. The old members were not making progress, the new members were not able to shoulder the responsibility, the city's tax revenue was not increasing, and the Western God King wanted to increase our tribute."

"Those who know know that he is just laying the groundwork, while those who don't would think that a small shrimp like me ruined the organization."

"Then later in the conversation, he said he wanted to add more responsibilities to me and let me be responsible for more affairs."

At this point, Qing Lan paused, and then said, "Actually, if the salary is sufficient and I am given normal tasks, I can accept it."

"But the most worrying thing is the mismatch between salary and labor."

"So every time I just accept it on the surface, but actually do nothing."

After saying that, Qinglan looked at Qiu Tu with her innocent eyes again, and then blinked her big eyes.

Hearing Qing Lan's words, Qiu Tu couldn't help but laugh. This girl was really cunning and she was good at making indirect accusations.

She was openly complaining about Tianqi, but secretly she was trying to shut Qiu Tu up in advance.

——Obligations and rights are equal. You will do as much as you are paid.

Although she has gained a lot of benefits, it is impossible to expect her to work hard for her!
However, Qiu Tu had not thought of completely buying Qing Lan off with these benefits. In his contacts with Qing Lan, Qiu Tu had already discovered that Qing Lan was a truly sober person.

Don't waste your time and energy, don't eat up the cake. If there is a problem, it must be someone else's fault. If there is danger, run away as far as you can. Saving your life is the most important thing.

It is indeed difficult to win over a person with such a personality, but at the same time, once you win over a person, it is difficult to get her to betray you.

Moreover, it is very simple to deal with a woman with this kind of personality. All you have to do is be nice to her all the time.

Precisely because of their clarity of mind, they do not try to climb up the ladder like some women, nor do they become ungrateful like some women.

They will know very clearly who treats them well and who treats them badly. And whoever is good is almost irreplaceable in this world.

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu also came back to his senses. He smiled at Qing Lan and said, "You misunderstood. I didn't intend to let you do anything dangerous."

"I just want you to help deliver some mail for us while you compete with her."

When Qing Lan heard Qiu Tu's words, her first reaction was to widen her eyes.

She looked at Qiu Tu in disbelief and said, "You even messed up Shao Hua?"

Qiu Tu:
Perhaps the personality that Qiu Tu established to the outside world was too deeply rooted in people's hearts. Coupled with seeing Qiu Tu's appearance, Qing Lan almost completely believed her own speculation.

She came up to Qiu Tu with a smile, nudged him a few times with her little elbow, and said gossipingly, "Qiu Tu, tell me, how did you get that frigid guy?"

"Is it sweet talk? Is it love that grows over time?"

"Or. Get on the bus first and buy the ticket later? Let her experience your breadth and depth?"

Qiu Tu:
Qing Lan seemed to have not noticed Qiu Tu's speechless expression. After asking, she looked gossipy.

"You don't know how famous Shaohua is for his sexual indifference."

"Over the years, she has killed at least 80 suitors, if not 100."

At this point, Qing Lan gestured with her little hands, "This is not a metaphor, it's a statement: she really kills people~~"

"After all, you have to know that she is a relative of the Southern Divine King. Unless she offends another Divine King, no one can control her."

Listening to the gossip that Qinglan was talking about, Qiu Tu didn't take it to heart. All his attention was focused on Qinglan's eyes.

Qinglan's eyes were clear and pure, without any gossip in them, but full of rationality. What she said and did was completely different.

Obviously she was pretending.

Qiu Tu, who knows people's hearts well, saw through Qing Lan's thoughts almost at a glance:
This girl probably mistakenly thought that she had a crush on Shao Hua, so she used this method to subtly inform herself of the information and dissuade herself from the idea.

"Look, for a woman with this kind of personality, if you treat her well, she will know it. And she will also treat you well in her own way. She will even try her best to save your face."

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu did not let Qing Lan continue to misunderstand him. He smiled and said, "You think too much. I am not so hungry that I will eat anything."

"I have some things that are not convenient for me to deal with myself, and I am also worried that someone is watching me, so I thought of asking you for help."

At this point, Qiu Tu said calmly, "After all, don't forget that your public identity is still a high-ranking member of the Wuyin Society."

As a woman who received a 90-point rating from Zhao Ji, Qing Lan is extremely talented and intelligent.

So Qiu Tu just gave her a slight hint and she understood instantly.

——Although during this period, many forces have known that Qinglan joined Qiu Tu’s team during the "Trial of the Gods".

But Qinglan has not yet betrayed the "Wisteria Society", so no one knows the true relationship between the two.

Or in the eyes of outsiders, Qinglan was not truly submitting to Qiu Tu, but was always keeping a way out.

In addition, Qinglan and Qiu Tu had just met each other, and they were even of different races, so in the eyes of outsiders, Qinglan was 100% not Qiu Tu's direct descendant.

In this situation, no matter how outsiders analyzed it, they felt that it would be difficult for Qiu Tu to entrust important tasks to Qing Lan, so the surveillance on her would definitely be much weaker.

In addition, Qinglan is very powerful and it is too difficult to keep an eye on her completely, so all forces will most likely choose to give up tracking Qinglan.

After thinking about it carefully, Qinglan is really the most suitable person to pass on the information. The premise is that Qiu Tu is really willing to trust Qinglan.

Thinking of this, Qinglan's big watery eyes couldn't help but look deeply at Qiu Tu.

To be honest, before today, Qinglan's ideas were similar to those of all parties.

They all felt that they were just a transitional product that Qiu Tu would use and then throw away. Not to mention being a direct descendant, it was good enough that they could treat her as a human being.

This is also the reason why she quickly gave up after taking the payment and helping Qiu Tu get through the most difficult time.

Unexpectedly, Qiu Tu actually treated her as his direct descendant and fulfilled his promise step by step.

And he dared to entrust her with such an important task.

This kind of courage and trust is something Qing Lan has never encountered in her life. It is because she still has some rationality, otherwise she would probably have the impulse of "a gentleman will die for his confidant".

But what Qinglan didn't know was that while she was thinking this, Qiu Tu's gaze quietly fell on the top of her head.

Because, just as Qinglan was thinking this, the prompts of "Loyalty +1, +1, +3, +7" kept popping up in her head.
Qinglan thinks Qiu Tu is courageous, but in fact, Qiu Tu is just cheating: with the intuitive display of the "loyalty game", Qiu Tu knows all the changes in Qinglan.

Moreover, Qiu Tu's actions tonight were actually closely linked.

Qiu Tu's plan from the beginning was: first meet Qinglan, then tell Qinglan about his next plan, and then observe the changes in Qinglan's loyalty.

Only after seeing Qinglan's loyalty soar and confirming that his judgment of Qinglan's character was correct, will Qiu Tu begin to arrange subsequent tasks.

Even if he assigned tasks, it was just a trick. Compared with assigning tasks, his more important purpose was to increase Qing Lan's loyalty.

You know, Qinglan is a genius who was rated 90 points by Zhaoji. In theory, this is a weakened version of Zhaoji. As long as he doesn't die, he will be a god at least, and a god king is expected. He will definitely be a key helper in the future.

Investing now will definitely not be a loss. The rate of return will be amazing. As for asking Qinglan to send a message to Shaohua, it is actually a side issue.
After all, although Qinglan was suitable to deliver the letter, she was not the only one. Qiu Tu had many ways to send the letter to Shaohua.

However, he understood that if you want to win over a subordinate and win the heart of a woman, it is useless to just give. You must let her give as well and guide her to do more and more things for you.

It’s not just about sunk costs, it’s about building habits.

During this period, in addition to worrying about Zhao Ji's affairs, Qiu Tu also took the time to study Qing Lan carefully.

As a "weakened version of Zhao Ji", even if Qing Lan has been dragged down by the "Wu Yin Society", she should not have only this much strength - this strength is really too weak.

Combined with what Zhao Ji said at the beginning, Qinglan's success today was all due to her talent, and she had hardly ever worked hard; so Qiu Tu felt that perhaps it was not just the "Wuyin Society" that hindered Qinglan's development, but also her personality.

——She is really too lazy and sloppy.

Therefore, giving her more things to do and increasing her benefits will help improve her subjective initiative.

Just like that, after instructing Qinglan about the next plan, Qiu Tu also stood up and sent her out of the villa.

Maybe because the cake Qiu Tu painted today was indeed a bit exaggerated, Qinglan walked a little unsteadily.

This made her unable to suppress the smile when she returned to her and Zhu Wu's villa.

During this time, Zhu Wu and she had already become close friends who could talk about anything, so when she saw her like that, Zhu Wu, who was curled up on the sofa watching TV, raised her eyes and looked at Qing Lan coldly with her vertical pupils, then said,
"What? Qiu Tu is so awesome? He made you so happy just in one go?"

Women often pretend to be pure and innocent when they are outside, but when they chat in private, they are actually more obscene than men.

So, after hearing what Zhu Wu said, Qing Lan not only didn't care at all, she even looked at Zhu Wu with a smug look and deliberately said, "Of course. If I give you a few hundred million at a time, you will be happy too."

Zhu Wu rolled her eyes at Qing Lan and said, "I hope you are talking about resources, not something else."

Qing Lan couldn't hold back her smile anymore, she said, "Of course~~"

She pinched her waist and said cutely, "I'm telling you, from today on, if anyone dares to say a bad word about Qiu Tu, I will never forgive her!"

Zhu Wu was really surprised to see Qing Lan become such a servile person.

She said, "You really are the embodiment of 'appearance is determined by salary'."

"Before Qiu Tu gave you too little, you talked about him behind his back a lot. Now that he gives you more, you've changed your attitude."

"How much did he give you? Come on! Tell me!"

As he spoke, a huge snake tail suddenly wrapped around Qinglan and pulled her into Zhuwu's arms.

The two of them obviously played around like this often, so after a while they gathered together and started chatting.
At the same time, Qiu Tu, who had seen Qing Lan off, was standing on the balcony on the second floor of his villa, smoking a cigarette and looking at the scenery in the distance.

The scarlet fire spots flickered in the darkness with his breathing.

Letting Qinglan contact Shaohua was actually just an insurance for Qiu Tu.

Facing the possible general attack from the God Kings, Qiu Tu must be more thoroughly prepared.

For example, contact that person.

Thinking of this, Qiu Tu quietly finished smoking a cigarette and then flicked the cigarette butt into the air.

With precise control, the cigarette butt exploded into a spider-web-sized firework in the air, which looked extremely gorgeous.

After doing all this, Qiu Tu turned and walked into the dark house. As he walked, he whispered, "Ask Guan Xiao to come over."

As he spoke, two figures emerged from the darkness. They knelt on one knee, saluted, and then quietly slipped back into the darkness.
Countdown to "God Trial": 7 days.
With the news that the "Trial of God" was about to end, the atmosphere in the entire "Boundless Heart Sea" became more and more tense.

As the three God Kings' clones surrounded Qiu Tu and Doris, they were killed in return; Zhao Ji blocked the door, and the North God King avoided the battle. Everyone knew that a new force was challenging the old order of the God Kings.

Although the God Kings seemed to have suffered consecutive defeats in a short period of time, everyone knew that the God Kings were not that weak. The current avoidance of war was most likely a plan for a major counterattack.

And with the growth rate of Zhao Ji, Qiu Tu, and Doris, everyone knows that once the "God Trial" is over, the three of them will most likely become gods. At that time, the four great gods will be even more passive.

Therefore, the time for the four gods to counterattack must be before the end of the "Trial of the Gods".

'This may very well be a war that will determine who this world belongs to.'

All parties came to this conclusion almost at the same time and began to wait for the outcome of this war.
And just when everyone was waiting for the birth of this storm.

In the southwest region, there is a tribe of "puppet worms".

Shaohua carried the axe that was longer and bigger than her body and walked out step by step.

Behind her was a sea of ​​corpses and blood of puppet worms.
After leaving the "Puppet Bug" tribe, Shaohua looked up at the sky, and then with a gloomy look she recalled the scene this morning when the pretty little Lolita came to her and gave her a letter.

"Qiu Tu knew that my uncle was actually missing?"

'And he knows where my uncle is?'

'As long as I give up this "God Trial" and choose to join him, he will tell me the truth?'

Thinking of the contents of the letter, Shaohua's expression became even more irritated.

This is also the reason why she ran to this puppet insect tribe and started killing people.

'How did Qiu Tu know that my uncle was missing?'

'And he actually knows where my uncle is?'

'Is he lying to me, or does he really know something?!'

Perhaps because he had too many questions in his mind, Shaohua didn't know what to choose for a moment.

In fact, according to her personality, she wanted to find Qiu Tu and have a chat in person.

But at the end of the letter, Qiu Tu made a special note: If Shao Hua came to him now, she would be harming her uncle.

Although Shaohua didn't have much affection for his cowardly uncle, the two of them had already fallen out.

But. It must be said that Shaohua's development to where she is today is largely due to her uncle's protection. In addition, the two of them are blood brothers.

So, decades ago, when her uncle left her a clone that had been refined and asked her to help look after the "Kingdom of the South" for a few days, she accepted it with reluctance.

In order to avoid being caught, she even staged a scene to make herself and her "uncle" fall out, and from then on "obey orders but not announcements", and never appeared in the same occasion again. (Chapter 680)
Over the years, whenever something happened in the "Kingdom of the South", she would manipulate her "uncle" to assign tasks to her, and then she would go out to fight.

It was through decades of experience that she was able to become the number one person under the four great gods in the entire "Boundless Sea of ​​Heart".

Of course, she can't do everything.

For example, this time, the King of the East invited the four kings of gods to gather together and kill Zhao Ji.

Not to mention whether she is willing or not, even if she is willing, she wouldn't dare to do it.

Other gods have multiple clones, so even if one is lost, they can be replaced.

She only had this one clone of the God King. If it was destroyed, she wouldn't be able to perform this scene anymore. So she could only pretend to be dead.

In the past few decades, she has never given up looking for her uncle, but her uncle seems to have disappeared or gone to the "God's Battlefield", and there is really no news at all.

But now Qiu Tu actually said that he knew?
At that moment, a thought suddenly came to Shaohua's mind: Qiu Tu, is he testing me?
As soon as this idea came into being, the already complicated situation became even more complicated, and Shaohua's mind became a mess.
At the same time, just when Shaohua was calculating and calculating and still couldn't figure it out.

Another letter was sent from the "Northwest Region", but this time it was no longer in Shaohua's hands, but in the hands of the Northern God King.——
Please give me a monthly ticket. In addition, the event in Singapore is official from Qidian. It should not be sold out, so don't worry.
