Xiao Lie originally had great expectations for Xiao Zonglai. The son of Xiao Zongzong must be a dragon-like figure in the sky.
But at first sight, it was a great disappointment. He didn't see the aura, demeanor, self-restraint and appropriate arrogance that the direct children of the sect should have, but only saw the arrogant arrogance and uncomfortable gam in his eyes, just like a playboy who grew up in spoiled and slapping. But after thinking about it carefully, he was relieved... After all, Xiao Zong couldn't pay attention to this small Xiaomen, and how could he really send any "big man" to come here? The identity of a "son of a suzerain" only shows the importance he attaches to the dead Xiao Zheng on the surface.
"Dad, I just heard them say that you and the doorkeeper went to meet Xiao Zong from afar, and you came back so soon?" Xiao Lingxi just came to deliver food to Xiao Lie and asked curiously, "Has Xiao Zong's people come yet? What do they all look like? Is it particularly scary in momentum?
Xiao Lingxi's words reminded him of the old man who followed Xiao Kuangyun and nodded: "Of course, Xiao Zong's people are unfathomable. However, Xi'er, Xiao Zong's people are here these days. Try not to contact them. The young man who takes the lead is not a good person. If you can avoid it, just avoid it.
"Ah?" Xiao Lingxi blinked her eyes doubtfully, and then nodded gently: "I know my father. In fact, I was a little afraid of them. After all, they are Xiao Zong's people. They must be super awesome."
"Even if you are curious, try not to get close to them." Xiao Lie told him again, took a deep breath, and walked into the yard with a heavy heart.
"Daddy? What do you look like on your mind? Is there anything special going on?" Knowing his father, Xiao Lie was full of trouble. Xiao Lingxi could see it at a glance and asked nervously.
Xiao Lie was stunned, and then shook his head: "It's nothing..." After a pause, he thought that if he didn't say it, this delicate daughter might not feel at ease all day, so he had to say slowly, "Xiao Zong's people brought a gift called 'Tong Xuansan' when he came here. I heard Xiao Kuangyun say that this Tong Xuan San has a good repair effect on the damaged Xuan vein. So..."
"Ah! Can you repair the damaged mysterious vein? Really?" Before Xiao Lie finished his words, Xiao Lingxi exclaimed excitedly, and his two little hands suddenly clenched the corners of his clothes. Repairing Xiao Che's mysterious vein has always been her greatest wish. In the past few years, she has also been trying to find all kinds of possible ways with Xiao Lie. Xiao Lie's words are no different from the fairy voice in the sky for her.
"The effect of Xiao Zong's elixir is by no means comparable. Maybe it can really play a mizarre effect." Speaking of this, Xiao Lie's expression slowly faded: "However, the most important function of Tong Xuan San is to speed up the speed of Xiu Xuan within a certain period of time. Now, the doormen all regard this 'Tong Xuansan' as the most precious treasure, and let them use 'Tong Xuansan' on Che'er, who is useless in their eyes... Hope is really slim.
Xiao Lingxi's expression stagnated. Xiao Lie's words were like a basin of cold water to extinguish all her excitement. She bit her lips and said firmly, "No matter what method you use, you must win Tong Xuansan. Xiao Che is not useless! He is the person who needs to be mysterious and scattered the most!"
"I will try my best to fight for it." Looking at his daughter's expression, Xiao Lie gave a long sigh. But I know very well how little the hope of winning Tong Xuansan is... Or, it's simply impossible.
...........
Night is coming.
"I saw Xiao Kuangyun of Xiao Zong today."
The candlelight shook slightly in the room. Xia Qingyue sat by the bed and said lightly.
"Oh... what kind of person is he?" Xiao Che yawned and asked casually, as if he didn't care.
"People are like their names." Thinking of Xiao Kuangyun's eyes looking at her, Xia Qingyue's eyebrows were slightly lame, and a touch of disgust flashed in her eyes. Her master told her that among the four sons of Master Xiao, the other three sons were all dragons in the world. Only the fourth son was a complete straw bag, but he was the most favored by the suzerain. Perhaps the reason was that he was the youngest and the only son born in the main room.
"It's normal. The people sent by Xiao Zong to this place will know what kind of product it will be if you think about it casually. But anyway, it doesn't matter to me. At most, I'll follow you tomorrow. Xiao Che shrugged his shoulders and said, and then suddenly his eyebrows moved, and his face became slightly solemn. He looked up and asked, "Qingyue's wife, did you say you saw him? So did he see you too?"
"That's right...what?" Xia Qingyue looked sideways.
Xiao Che raised his hand and nodded his chin, and suddenly said, "You said before that he was a very bad-known good. This kind of good... Huh, Qingyue's wife, if I guess correctly, your master should be near Liuyun City, right?" ...How do you know?" A trace of amaston flashed on Xia Qingyue's face.
Xiao Che didn't explain and said seriously, "In this case, find a way to contact your master, so that she'd better come to this place tomorrow..." After thinking about it, his expression became relaxed again: "Since your master is nearby, it's probably not a big deal. Sleep."
Xia Qingyue raised her slender eyebrows slightly and thought about it for a while. Then she thought of Xiao Kuangyun's eyes when she looked at her in the afternoon, and finally understood the meaning of Xiao Che's words. Her expression suddenly moved. She subconsciously reached out and pinched an ice-like note on her waist.
Looking at Xiao Che tidying up the blanket spread there in the corner, her eyes shook slightly, and her lips buzzed several times in a row before finally making a sound: "Sleep in bed."
"Ah?" Xiao Che turned around and said with wide eyes, "Qingyue's wife, what are you talking about?"
Xia Qingyue turned his face directly and didn't let him see his expression at this time. He said coldly, "Forget it if you didn't hear it!"
"I heard it! How could you not hear it!" Xiao Che hurriedly nodded like a chicken pecking rice, threw the blanket in his hand, rushed to the bed, and looked at Xia Qingyue with a smile: "My wife, are you sleeping inside or outside tonight?"
"..." Xia Qingyue didn't say anything. She waved her hand and brushed out all the red candles in an instant. The room was suddenly dark, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She reached out and pushed Xiao Che into it, pulled the blanket, covered the two of them, and lay down with her back to Xiao Che. Her voice was cold and said, "Don't think too much. I'm just to help you take care of my body at three o'clock in the morning... Don't do what you shouldn't do! Otherwise, I won't let you sleep in bed again!"
"Yes, dear wife!" Xiao Che pulled the quilt, smelled the residual fragrance of the girl on it, and said happily.
Now Xiao Che will be called "wife" dozens of times a day. From the initial anger to now, it is not only extremely natural to hear, but also gives her an indescribable feeling of "I am his wife". This subtle change made her panic and made her even more confused. She closed her eyes and tried not to think about these things that made her mentally disordered. Before long, she fell asleep peacefully.
Unconsciously, it was three o'clock in the morning, which was the darkest time before dawn. The whole Xiaomen was quiet, and only the humming of mosquitoes could be heard occasionally.
In the dark, a slight "squeak" sound came from Xiao Lingxi's yard. The closed door slowly opened with the sound, and a petite shadow slowly poked out. After looking around for a while, he quickly rushed out.
Before the shadow's body could step out of the door, a tall gray shadow suddenly fell from the sky and fell in front of her. A girl's exclamation sounded, and then a serious voice tried to lower: "Xi'er, where are you going so late?"
"Ah! Old...Daddy!" The shocked shadow pulled down the scarf on his face, revealing a touching girl's face. It was Xiao Lingxi. Looking at Xiao Lie, who suddenly appeared in front of her, she panicked for a moment: "I...I...I...I..."
"Alas!" Xiao Lie sighed long and whispered, "Xi'er, you're going to sneak through Xuansan, right?"
"I...I..." Xiao Lingxi lowered her head and hesitated for a while.
"You are my biological daughter. What's on your mind? Can't I understand?" Xiao Che sighed again and patted his daughter on the shoulder forward: "In the afternoon, when you left from me, I felt that your eyes were not right, so I didn't worry about coming over and guarding it... Sure enough, you hugged to steal Xuansan's thoughts... Xi'er, you are really nonsense. Do you know how dangerous it is? That Tong Xuansan is not an ordinary thing. It is a gift sent by Xiao Zong. If your deeds are found, it will be soiled on Xiao Zong's head. At that time, the four people of Xiao Zong will be convicted of you. Don't talk about me, no one in Liuyun City can save you at all.
Xiao Lingxi lowered her head and bit her lips: "I... I know all this. But... But... Xiao Che is so pitiful. He is obviously so good, but he has been laughed at, looked down upon, and regarded as a waste by everyone. If he can repair the mysterious vein, then he will not be laughed at again, and he will not be worse than anyone..."
Xiao Lie opened his mouth, and his painful expression flashed away on his face.
"I often wonder why the Xuanmai was abolished by Xiao Che, not me... The world is too unfair to him... Dad, do you know? Whenever I see Xiao Che being laughed at and pretending to be indifferent and comforting me in turn, how sad is my heart... If I can repair his mysterious vein, I will be a thief... Even if I am punished by death, I am willing to..."With that, Xiao Lingxi's eyes were full of tears. She covered her cheeks with her hands and finally couldn't help sobbing.
There was a violent movement on Xiao Lie's face. Looking at his crying daughter, his heart was also sour. He comforted softly: "Xi'er, I know you are committed to Che'er, but not to mention the consequences of doing this. The box of Tong Xuansan Xiao Yunhai did not give it to anyone after taking it. It should be brought to you. With your ability, how can you steal something from Xiao Yunhai? Obedient, go back to sleep. I will try my best to find a way about Tong Xuansan. Although I have not fought for anything over the years, I finally have a certain right to speak in Xiaomen. There is no hope for Tong Xuansan. This kind of stupid thing can't be done again in the future. In case something really happens to you... In the future, who will take care of and protect Che'er?
Xiao Lie's last words gently hit Xiao Lingxi's soft heart, which made her suddenly afraid for a while... Yes! If I don't succeed and get caught and get a lot of punishment, what should Xiao Che do...
"I... I know." Xiao Lingxi took off his black clothes, threw them aside, wiped the tears on his face, and said with a guilty face, "Dad, I'm sorry, I did something stupid to make you worry about again. I'm going to bed now and stop doing this... Dad, you should also go back and have a rest... I promise not to sneak up again."
"Ha ha, just be obedient." Xiao Lie nodded and smiled gently. But before leaving, he still picked up the black clothes on the ground and took them away.
