Chapter 2039: The Du Family's Calculations
He was about to go home directly, when his footsteps turned to Du Mansion, but he suddenly thought of the words of the man in black, so he turned his footsteps and turned around in the direction of Qiongyu Pavilion, his steps were more urgent than when he left.
On the roof somewhere, the man covered in a black cloak watched Du Xing go in the direction of Qiongyu Pavilion, smiled with satisfaction, and then turned around and went in another direction.
His figure rose and fell on the roof, and finally landed on the roof of the Fang family.
In the Qiongyu Pavilion, the first day of the alchemist exchange meeting had just ended, and most of the familiar alchemists felt that they had gained a lot, especially today when they witnessed Xiao Chen's direct step from the seventh grade to the peak of the eighth grade, and many people wanted to discuss with Xiao Chen.
These people are all humbly asking questions, and there is no other malice, Xiao Chen did not refuse, and all the questions asked were answered patiently.
When the group of them walked out of it, they happened to meet Du Xing and the old man of the Du family, the faces of the ancestors and grandchildren were a little solemn, and when they saw Xiao Chen, Du Xing looked at Xiao Chen several times.
The alchemist who was already familiar with Xiao Chen couldn't help but smile and said, "That kid from the Du family, shouldn't he have put down the previous matter, right? ”
Xiao Chen only smiled faintly, and did not answer this, he looked at the backs of the ancestors and grandchildren leaving in a hurry, and only felt very strange.
Speaking of which, how the two ancestors and grandchildren have nothing to do with him doesn't have much to do with him, he has already taught a lesson before, judging from Old Man Du's actions, although he is a little angry with his methods, he has no intention of retaliating, otherwise he would have shouted before.
Putting his doubts in his heart, Xiao Chen said goodbye to those alchemists, and joined Phoenix Yuanjin and the others who were already waiting outside.
Shen Yu was also taken by Yuan Jin's side, except for being a little nervous at the beginning, Shen Yu was quiet at this time, and from time to time he would say a few words to the Phoenix people, and they had a good chat.
"How is it, Xiao Da Alchemist, this exchange meeting has gained a good harvest. Yuan Jin bumped Xiao Chen's shoulder and teased Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen nodded seriously, "Yes, it's really good, by the way, I learned about some elixirs that dissolve spiritual power, do you want to try it?"
Yuan Jin closed his mouth in amusement, causing Phoenix to laugh out loud.
When eating at the inn in the evening, Xiao Chen suddenly said: "Tomorrow, you don't have to accompany me, I'll just go alone." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone at the dinner table was silent for a while, and the Phoenix and Immortal Punishment Soldiers were the first to notice that Xiao Chen's words were there, and the three of them nodded at the same time, "Okay, it just so happens that we are not very familiar with Fenghe, so let's take a good look tomorrow." ”
Yuan Jin raised his eyebrows when he saw the three of them answer so tacitly, "Do you really want to be alone?" he asked Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen nodded, "I see that you have nothing to do sitting in the attic, it should be quite boring, I want to communicate and discuss with the rest of the alchemists, and I don't have time to accompany you, so it is better to let me go alone." ”
Shen Yu looked a little lonely, "I still think that I can follow my predecessors to increase my knowledge tomorrow." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he was patted on the shoulder by Yuan Jin, "It's okay to follow me to grow knowledge." ”
Ada and Muli have always had no opinions, and as soon as Xiao Chen said that he didn't need them to accompany him, he also agreed, and so far everyone reached a consensus.
......
The Du family, although it is late at night, the entire mansion is brightly lit, Rao is so, but the Du mansion is not noisy at all, but it is terrifyingly quiet.
In the council hall of the Du family, sitting on the main seat is the current head of the family, Du Feng, he is more than a hundred years old this year, and the alchemy grade has not been promoted for so many years since he reached the middle level of Danling ten years ago.
Under Du Feng, it was his eldest son, that is, Du Xing's father, who sat down in order, all of whom were people who could speak in the Du family, and Du Xing was also in it.
Everyone's faces were a little solemn at this moment.
Du Feng looked at Du Xing and asked seriously and seriously: "Okay, are you sure you were not wrong at that time, where did you really come from?"
Du Xing has already answered this question more than once, he is spoiled on weekdays, and he is used to having a bad temper, even in the face of the old man, he is a little impatient at this time.
"Oh grandpa, how many times have I said it, I'm sure I won't be mistaken, that's the cloud pattern, the entire mixed metaverse, except for Zhongzhou, who will use the cloud pattern as a sign, even if you think, who has the guts." ”
"Okay!" Du Feng scolded, "Don't talk nonsense in the future!"
Du Feng dotes on Du Xing very much on weekdays, and he dotes on him even more than Du Xing's father, and this is the first time he has scolded Du Xing in front of everyone.
Du Xing blushed for a while, and quickly realized that his statement was indeed not very good.
Although he was arrogant and domineering, he also knew that the old man's words still had to be listened to, so he immediately said obediently: "Grandpa is right, Xing'er knows, and he won't dare in the future." ”
Du Feng let him go, turned his head and discussed with his sons, "This, how could someone from Zhongzhou suddenly come to Fenghe? Is it really for the person named Xiao Chen?"
"Father, what kind of skills does that person named Xiao Chen have, and how can he get Zhongzhou to pay attention to it?"
Du Feng's eyes narrowed, and he muttered: "To be able to attract Zhongzhou's attention, this Xiao Chen does have some ability, and I also want to know what kind of ability he has." ”
"Okay, that person has asked anything else besides asking about Xiao Chen's movements in the Linglong Tower?" Du Feng asked Du Xing.
Du Xing shook his head, "As soon as that person came up, he directly asked me if I had noticed anything about Xiao Chen, but I didn't understand what he was referring to, so I said what I suspected the most." ”
"That's weird, looking at the other party's appearance, you should already know Xiao Chen, since you are so coarse, why do you have to ask you specifically?" Du Feng frowned, very puzzled.
Du Xing walked bored for a while, and after dozing off, his body stiffened, and he suddenly remembered something.
"Grandpa! Grandpa! I suddenly remembered. Du Xing suddenly shouted, and the people in the council hall turned their eyes on Du Xing.
Du Feng was nervous for a moment, then calmed down again, and said in a deep voice: "What's the matter, say it quickly!"
"I remember the man saying something meaningful to me before leaving. He said, "If we find anything, we must tell them in time." ”
Du Feng savored this passage carefully, and suddenly smiled, his smile was a little deep.
"If that's the case, then we'll find that it's not small. He laughs.
The other people sitting in the council hall glanced at each other, and slowly reacted to what the old man meant, and they all immediately laughed meaningfully.
Du Xing still didn't understand, and asked in confusion: "Grandpa, what do you mean by this?"
Du Feng glanced at him, "It seems that you really make a lot of fox friends on weekdays, and you don't understand the meaning of such a simple one." Reprimanding is reprimand, Du Feng still explained: "As long as it is our discovery, then naturally what we say is what it is." ”
