Chapter 223: Solution
Sioux City, Bai Family Villa.
The night is deep, there are no stars and moons outside the window, there are few insects and birds, and it is naturally much quieter.
The room was a little lively, at least the lights were on.
The broken porcelain pieces on the ground were not cleaned up, after all, they were a little conspicuous, but Ye Xiaogu was not in the mood to clean them up at the moment.
β..............................β
Ye Xiaogu looked at Bao'er who was sitting at the table holding her hair, her white arms like lotus roots, but she had few desires, and she was speechless.
"What are you talking about?"
After hesitating for a moment, Ye Xiaogu looked at the night outside the window and asked casually.
Bao'er's hand moved slowly, and glanced at Ye Xiaogu, with some surprise in her eyes, after all, according to Ye Xiaogu's temperament, she was afraid that it would be too late to hide when she encountered these things, so how could she be so positive.
Besides, it is rare for a dog to wag its tail without giving it to him, but not to give it to him.
Between thoughts, Bao'er coiled up her hair and looked at Ye Xiaogu and said.
"You don't love me anymore?"
Ye Xiaogu frowned slightly, and looked at Bao'er, at this moment, she looked much more gentle and virtuous when she coiled her long hair, and there was a little less sharpness between her eyebrows, and she seemed to have returned to the appearance she usually saw.
It's just that, and it's just seeming.
"Let's get down to business.........."
Ye Xiaogu hesitated, but still changed his mouth and said lightly.
Bao'er looked at Ye Xiaogu and frowned slightly, but then she got up straight and said indifferently.
"Okay, since you're going to get down to business, I'll talk to you about business. Can you save the people of the Bai family?"
"Save. β
Ye Xiaogu replied expressionlessly.
Bao'er picked up the glass on the table casually, walked to the window casually, and said lightly.
"The majesty of Tianmen does not allow provocation, and if I am removed, the Bai family will definitely not be able to keep it........ Unless my dependents become one of the members of the Heavenly Gate. β
"Yes. How do I get there?"
Ye Xiaogu responded simply, but there was still no emotion between the words.
"Smack!!
Ye Xiaogu's skills in pretending to be a wooden man are not proficient in the end, and this word is too deliberate, but it is inevitable that it will be angry when it falls in Bao'er's ears.
Bao'er smashed the glass in her hand before Ye Xiaogu got around, and the splashed warm water was not hot, but it was always a little more alert.
Ye Xiaogu raised his head and looked at the angry look on his face, but he had some reaction and spoke.
"What's wrong with you?"
"Are you my dog?
Bao'er frowned, looked at Ye Xiaogu and said hatefully.
"Isn't it? It's just your order anyway. β
Ye Xiaogu glanced at Bao'er lightly and said casually.
β...................β
Bao'er looked at Ye Xiaogu without saying a word, and really wanted to slap him in the face for a while.
The lingering lover of the past still seems a little naΓ―ve in the end.
Seeing Bao'er's anger, Ye Xiaogu twisted his neck, touched his hair casually, poured another cup of cold boiled water on the table, walked straight to Bao'er, and handed it to her.
The anger on Bao'er's face eased slightly, took the glass handed over by Ye Xiaogu, and glanced at Ye Xiaogu.
Ye Xiaogu touched his hair and said casually.
"My hair is dry, let's go to bed first. β
Bao'er frowned slightly, holding the glass but not moving.
Ye Xiaogu didn't care, he lay on the bed by himself, looked at Bao'er who was standing by himself and said casually.
"I know if I ask you anything, you won't answer, after all, I'm nothing in your eyes, a tool at best. But I'm still a little curious, everyone says you're out of the world, why are you out of the world now?"
Ye Xiaogu's tone was casual and peaceful, and it didn't seem to be anything, but it was extremely harsh in Bao'er's ears.
"Smack~~~~"
In his mind, the glass that Ye Xiaogu had just handed to Bao'er was crushed by Bao'er's hand, and then Bao'er frowned slightly, looked at Ye Xiaogu and said.
"You think you're the tool to me?"
Ye Xiaogu tilted his head and looked at Bao'er, and said casually.
"Then can you touch your conscience and say that you are moved because you see my appearance as a teenager, and the demon who has practiced for thousands of years decided to stay with that young man at that moment?"
Bao'er frowned slightly, lowered her head and wiped the broken glass slag in her hand, but she didn't respond.
"You know it's impossible just to listen, right? You value my talents, which are useful to you, even indispensable...... You just said it more than ten years ago, you can't afford to spend more than ten years with me in such a dull way. β
Ye Xiaogu felt that it was not ordinary enough, and said casually with an indifferent face.
These words should have been doubts from a long time ago, but at that time, it was still family harmony and happiness, and Ye Xiaogu also forced himself not to think about it.
But some things are like thorns in the flesh, and it is not easy to forget the existence of that thorn by simply not thinking about it.
β........... Go to bed. β
Ye Xiaogu looked at Bao'er, but a trace of longing flashed in the depths of his eyes, even if Bao'er was angry at the end, as long as he finally admitted it, Ye Xiaogu himself could be regarded as a clear understanding.
It's just that when Bao'er raised her head, the anger on her face seemed to be gone, and she said a simple sentence and went straight to bed, as if she didn't hear Ye Xiaogu's words.
β............................β
Ye Xiaogu frowned slightly and looked at Bao'er lying beside him, but he was speechless for a while.
Bao'er just lay next to Ye Xiaogu so casually, but it also made it difficult for Ye Xiaogu to deal with.
In fact, if Bao'er really wants to force Ye Xiaogu to do something, even if he doesn't accompany him so much, Ye Xiaogu will naturally do it. It's just that it is the companionship of so many years that Ye Xiaogu inevitably has a trace of extravagance.
Why do you want to search for something you know will be fruitless?
Ye Xiaogu didn't get up and turned off the light, and after watching Bao'er lie down, he didn't continue to ask anything.
Although there are still doubts in my heart, I am still puzzled, but I don't talk about anything else when I sleep, which can be regarded as a long-term tacit understanding between the two.
Ye Xiaogu stretched out his hand and pulled the quilt next to him to cover Bao'er, and took advantage of the situation to hug her waist, but it was difficult to say anything else.
............................................................................................
"When I went to Baita Park on Pishi Street, I went to pick up the children first. β
As soon as the dawn dawned, Bao'er got up and washed up, finished freshening up, and threw a black suit on the bed.
Ye Xiaogu pursed his lips and stretched his arms, and there were shallow chest muscles outside the quilt.
"Where did you go with all your hard work last night?!"
Bao'er saw Ye Xiaogu lying lazily on the bed, and couldn't help but speak for a while.
Ye Xiaogu frowned slightly, glanced at Bao'er, and really felt a little helpless for a while.
Bao'er is really unforgiving, it seems that the cold war with her yesterday is estimated to be a year.
In his mind, although this late autumn season is the most suitable time for sleeping, Ye Xiaogu still got up slowly, rubbed his forehead, and put on the suit that Bao'er threw on the bed.
Although it is said that he joined Tianmen, but with the experience of Longmen martial arts, Ye Xiaogu really has no good expectations for this so-called Tianmen.
Not to mention that this black suit is almost like looking for a job, Ye Xiaogu was really a little inexplicably disgusted for a while.
Buttoning the buttons casually, Ye Xiaogu put on his shirt, looked at the dragon-shaped pin in a small box on the bed, frowned slightly, and asked casually.
"What is this?"
But there was no response between the words, Ye Xiaogu frowned slightly, and subconsciously looked at Bao'er, but he didn't expect that this room was empty, and he didn't know when he left.
Ye Xiaogu raised his eyebrows slightly, and subconsciously whispered to himself.
"Really angry?"
Between his thoughts, Ye Xiaogu didn't think much about it, although it seemed that this little day was very peaceful, but he was beaten with blood yesterday, and Ye Xiaogu would not be so forgetful.
There has never been peace in these days.
Su City, Ye Xiaogu is not familiar, but Bao'er even said the name of the street clearly, and Ye Xiaogu naturally won't find it.
When he was about to go out, Ye Xiaogu accidentally saw Bai Feifei and Bai Shaoqing walking on the lawn, although Bai Shaoqing was still in a wheelchair, but after all, his life was still there, and the two of them seemed to be in a good mood.
Only when Ye Xiaogu came out, Bai Feifei's face sank, but she turned her face and didn't look at Ye Xiaogu, but Bai Shaoqing waved at Ye Xiaogu.
Ye Xiaogu nodded, but he didn't think much about it, and left directly.
When she went out, Ye Xiaogu was still a little worried that she didn't have money for the bus, but she just touched her pocket, but her heart was warm, Bao'er really had a vague heart of a good wife and mother, and she actually made a lot of change in the pocket of this suit.
Ye Xiaogu didn't think much about it, and went straight to the bus, not saying any emotions along the way, and seemed to be a little calmer.
Although nothing has changed, and nothing can be set out in Bao'er's mouth, but this kind of life seems to be normal.
Blocked and stopped all the way, Ye Xiaogu was also a little motion sick, and he almost made the wrong stop in a daze.
But fortunately, this time I went to the park, and a large number of old men and women rushed out to visit the park, and when they rushed out, even Ye Xiaogu was squeezed out.
Ye Xiaogu was in a daze, and originally wanted to scold his mother, but as soon as he turned around, he saw the four big characters "Baita Park" written on the antique plaque, and he lowered his head and walked in directly.
This Baita Park was originally a place for leisure and play, and Ye Xiaogu originally thought that he would not be too conspicuous when he walked here in a black suit.
But when he walked into this antique brand, everything in front of him rippled slightly, and it seemed to be blurred a lot, and before Ye Xiaogu rubbed his eyes, it turned into a different appearance in front of him.
A group of people in black pressure, but they are in suits and leather shoes, and they can see what they look like when they wear white masks.
Although Ye Xiaogu was wearing the same black suit, Bao'er didn't seem to give Ye Xiaogu a mask, which made Ye Xiaogu look a lot more abrupt for a while.
Among the large group of people wearing white masks, only Ye Xiaogu's dazed face was particularly conspicuous.
It's just that these people seem to be looking at the front intently, and they don't have time to take care of Ye Xiaogu.
Ye Xiaogu originally wanted to jump up and see what was going on in front of him, but because of this large group of people, dressed in suits and leather shoes, the atmosphere was too dignified, and he didn't dare to get close to see it for a while.
Just a casual look around, it seems to be a foggy square or something, and you can't see the surroundings clearly.
Although Ye Xiaogu has seen such a place a few times, most of them are places like elevators or rooms, and most of them need to be triggered by formations, but he didn't expect that there would be such a change when he walked directly here.
Between his thoughts, Ye Xiaogu subconsciously looked at the golden dragon-shaped pin pinned to his chest, and subconsciously thought of He Ji in the Three Swords Society in the past, and he seemed to have mentioned that the jade that was engraved and forbidden could directly pass through such a formation.
"Is it really a formation with an engraved mark on it?"
Between thoughts, Ye Xiaogu subconsciously frowned, and was ready to play carefully, but he didn't expect that in this calm, there was a sudden "swish".
This black pressure I don't know how many people in black suits and white masks turned around suddenly, Ye Xiaogu was already standing last, but this time he suddenly became the leader.
All of a sudden, the eyes of so many people suddenly fell on Ye Xiaogu, and Ye Xiaogu still felt a little embarrassed.
Slowly putting down his hand, the corners of Ye Xiaogu's mouth raised slightly, and he nodded at the group of people with a smile, looking extremely respectful.
"Whew!!!!!"
It's just that Ye Xiaogu's respectful salute didn't seem to have any effect, and this large group of people wearing masks and black suits slowed down slightly, but rushed out in an instant.
Running, flying, or jumping, but between three or five breaths, this large square was empty in an instant.
Only, about 100 meters away from the front, stood a person who was also wearing a black suit and a black mask.
β.................. That, I'm here to join the Heavenly Gate. β
There were a lot of people before, Ye Xiaogu still felt a little uncomfortable, but now that there was no one around him, Ye Xiaogu was even more uncomfortable.
After hesitating for a moment, Ye Xiaogu still stiffened his head, and slowly walked to the man in the black mask and said.
While speaking, Ye Xiaogu really wanted to retract Bao'er's evaluation of a good wife and mother.
Since you have put away the change intimately, why can't you tell yourself about the way to get started with this heavenly gate?
It made Ye Xiaogu seem to have suddenly broken into someone else's conference room and said that he wanted to apply, which was extremely embarrassing.
β.......................β
Although Ye Xiaogu's words were quite respectful, the black-clothed and black-faced man didn't seem to hear Ye Xiaogu's words, and he didn't respond a word.
Ye Xiaogu frowned slightly, pursed his lips, and subconsciously retreated.
"Looks like I'm mistimed, I'll go back and ask for clarification........ Excuse me. β
As he spoke, Ye Xiaogu was about to turn around and leave, but when he turned around, there was a vast and endless forest in front of him.
The huge trees hugged by several people are lush and green, with lush foliage, and there is a faint whisper of birds and beasts.
Ye Xiaogu saw it at a glance, and secretly swallowed his saliva for a while.
"Was this sent to the rainforest or what?"
"Tianmen advanced assessment, white-faced advanced black-faced, no meritorious, once every three years, if you leave, you can come back after three years. β
When Ye Xiaogu was stunned, the man in the black mask behind him who was motionless and silent said lightly.
Ye Xiaogu was slightly stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously turned around and asked.
"I want to get started, is that today?"
The black-faced man glanced at Ye Xiaogu lightly, and then his figure flickered but disappeared suddenly.
Ye Xiaogu was stunned again when he saw this.
From the beginning to the present, he has been in a state of ignorance, and Ye Xiaogu's own brain is a little unable to keep up with everything in front of him.
"Eh, no, you let me go, you open a door for me?"
As soon as the person in a black suit and a black mask left, Ye Xiaogu suddenly woke up, there was a white expanse everywhere, and there was only a road in the forest in front of him, so Ye Xiaogu had nowhere to go?
Between his thoughts, Ye Xiaogu's evaluation of this so-called Heavenly Gate was not much lower.
Ye Xiaogu was originally going to wait for the end of this assessment so that he could participate in the entrance session, but he didn't expect that the fog surrounding the square slowly gathered, forcing Ye Xiaogu to retreat into the forest.
Seeing this, Ye Xiaogu could only grit his teeth for a while, and rushed directly to the forest.
At first, I felt that the forest was dense, but now I feel damp and gloomy when I walk in, and I can't even see a figure in a black suit.
"Sure enough, do you want me to take this advanced assessment? Could it be that there will be two of them today?"
Ye Xiaogu secretly thought about Bao'er's thoughts in her heart, but after thinking about it carefully, maybe Bao'er really wanted to participate in this advanced assessment by herself.
After all, in Bao'er's opinion, even if Ye Xiaogu has just learned to climb, he can be regarded as the fastest climber in the world, and the result of high hopes is to look too high.
The result of looking too high is naturally the heavier the fall.
Ye Xiaogu looked at the gloomy dense forest and subconsciously frowned.
Ye Xiaogu has just seen the ability of this kind of person wearing a white mask, and of course he is only higher than Ye Xiaogu.
Not to mention that Ye Xiaogu has to compete with this group of people wearing white masks at the moment, what is more important is ....... Ye Xiaogu got up late, and he didn't even know what he was going to do in this advanced assessment.
In his mind, Ye Xiaogu really regretted it for a while, if he didn't take the bus when he went out in the morning, he might be able to get a front row by taking a taxi directly.
It's just that when I think about it, the three or two dollars in my pocket doesn't seem to be enough to take a taxi.
Ye Xiaogu subconsciously touched his pocket, thinking about Bao'er's words and actions in the morning, and for a while, even the evaluation of the good wife and mother was directly erased.
Bao'er deliberately let herself take the bus, deliberately leaving first to avoid being entangled.
Thinking of Bao'er, Ye Xiaogu really sighed for no reason for a while, it's good to mess with anyone, why do you have to mess with her?
Ye Xiaogu originally thought that he was aggressive and had the upper hand with his cold words last night.
Now it seems that after this gain, it also fell badly.
In his mind, Ye Xiaogu originally planned to think about how to find a place in front of Bao'er after going back.
"Bang !!"
There was a loud bang in front of him.
