Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Five Elders
At the other end of the high-end accommodation area, a dark shadow flashed by, climbed over the high fence, climbed directly into the courtyard, and then pushed open the door.
"You're here. ”
A pale and thin young man sat on a chair in the hall, as if he had known that someone was coming, and blew the spiritual tea in the cup with satisfaction.
"If you're here, sit down. ”
The person who came was slender, dressed in a black robe, with black hair tied in a jade crown, and he looked even more handsome, and he slowly walked a few steps forward.
"Don't you have anything to tell me?" he raised, deep, sharp, "or is it the one in the room who told me?"
As soon as he entered the room, he felt a slight fluctuation of spiritual power in the inner room.
The man sitting frowned slightly, snorted, and said, "What nonsense." ”
"Xia'er, don't be rude!"
A slightly cold voice came, and the person who came looked at the source of the sound, only to see the door of the inner room slowly open, and a woman who looked to be about thirty years old walked step by step.
"Deacon Xiao?"
Xiao Baiqiao who came out of him was still surprised.
Luo Xia stood up a little angrily and saluted Xiao Baiqiao.
I saw that Xiao Baiqiao looked very helpless and glanced at Luo Xia, and then looked at the person.
"You shouldn't call me Deacon Xiao. She looked deeply at the other party's face, "You should call me the Fifth Elder." ”
When she said this, her eyes couldn't help but heat up, and she shouted in a low voice.
"Young master!"
Three hundred years later, she finally found the orthodoxy of the Xiao family!
Xiao Baiqiao's original name was Xiao Mingcai, and the Xiao family's grandson branch was a close side branch that had just come out of the five suits, a young genius, extremely valued by the old head of the Xiao family, the old family's wife died when she gave birth, she had just built the foundation not long ago, and she was still young, so she was appointed to be responsible for the upbringing of her son-in-law Xiao Zhengqi, Xiao Zhengqi can almost be said to be Xiao Mingcai's big belt.
When the Xiao family had an accident, she had just Jindan not long ago, and then Zhao Pinsheng occupied the magpie's nest, she left the Xiao family, looking for Xiao Zhengqi's whereabouts everywhere, for three hundred years, she almost traveled all over the Wufeng Continent, but she never found any clues about Xiao Zhengqi.
She comforted herself, in fact, no news is good news, she can't find it, Zhao Pinsheng can't find it, the Xiao family's descendants, and there is still hope for inheritance.
In her heart, she has always secretly regarded Xiao Zhengqi as her own brother.
Two hundred years ago, she gave up looking for a needle in a haystack and came to Tongtian Academy and became a deacon of the college.
Lu Ji, the dean of Tongtian Academy, is her old acquaintance, and she came to defect to see if she could find out any news through the relationship of the academy, but later she became pregnant, and she couldn't leave if she wanted to.
Omitting personal secrets, briefly talking about the past, Xiao Baiqiao said, "Five years ago, I led the team to participate in the small competition, and met Xiao Jiu, who was seriously injured and dying on the road, he told me the news that you were attacked by Zhao Pinsheng, but he didn't want to tell me your name anyway, only said that I would find the only remaining heir of the branch. ”
For Xiao Baiqiao, the fifth elder of the Xiao family, Xiao Jiu knew that she had not succumbed to Zhao Pinsheng for so many years, but was looking for Xiao Zhengqi's whereabouts, although she was grateful and admired in her heart, knowing her loyalty to Xiao Zhengqi, but she couldn't fully trust it.
As a brave and loyal guard by Xiao Zhengqi's side, he only trusts Xiao Zhengqi, he doesn't dare to gamble, he can't entrust Xiao Shiyu's life to this elder who has not seen him for three hundred years.
At the same time, he was on the verge of life and death, and he was unwilling to give up any hope, hoping that someone would really save the orthodox bloodline of the Xiao family.
Regarding Xiao Jiu's contradictions and prudence, Xiao Baiqiao fully understood.
"Where is Uncle Xiao Jiu now?" Xiao Shiyu's tone was urgent, and he couldn't control his excited expression anymore.
Xiao Baiqiao shook his head, "He was afraid of revealing his whereabouts, so he didn't contact me and went to find your whereabouts alone." ”
Seriously injured and dying, looking for ...... alone
The hope in Xiao Shiyu's eyes turned into a deep regret.
Luo Xia snorted, looked at Xiao Shiyu's expression, and turned her head away angrily.
Ever since he was sensible, he knew that his mother was looking for someone, and then he grew up, knowing his own background, knowing his mother's pursuit, he began to work hard to cultivate day after day, he wanted to become strong as soon as possible, to help his mother achieve what she wanted, and never wanted to see her lost look and hear her heavy sigh.
For so many years, looking at her mother who has been constantly inquiring and exploring everywhere, if Luo Xia has no resentment towards the Xiao family in her heart, it is impossible.
He didn't grow up in the Xiao family, he didn't know the situation of the Xiao family, and he hadn't seen the plight of the Xiao family.
He only knew that his mother's unhappiness was brought by the Xiao family.
"Although I haven't seen you, but I also grew up watching Zhengqi, that day in Jimeitang, I saw you coming out of Wangting Mountain, although I glanced at it hurriedly, but your eyebrows are three points similar to your father, at that time I had some guesses in my heart, but you rarely walk around the academy, and three years have passed since a retreat, and I can't be sure of your identity. ”
Xiao Baiqiao paused when he said this, "If you stay in Tongtian Academy, I don't want to disturb your cultivation, but this time Xiaobi is held in Ziji Academy, I still hope that you can think carefully and don't take risks easily." ”
"Then why don't you ask me before the ruler spirit?"
After signing up, no one had come to him before.
"How do you ask?" Xiao Baiqiao shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"If you are the son of Zhengqi, you will naturally come to me, if you are not. She paused, "I don't have any reason to stop you from going to Xiaobi." ”
A hint of clarity flashed in Xiao Shiyu's eyes, speaking like this, it makes sense that Luo Xia deliberately used the Xiao family's Wind Shadow Six Body Technique when performing the ruler spirit.
If he is from the Xiao family, he will definitely be able to recognize this Xiao family's unique body method and come to the door by himself.
If he is not, at most he will sigh Luo Xia's good skills, and all kinds of temptations here are like wind and water without a trace, silently.
Xiao Shiyu raised his face, glanced at Xiao Baiqiao deeply, and then looked at Luo Xia, who was pale.
He bowed deeply with his hands arched.
"Xiao Shiyu, the son of the former Xiao family's young master Xiao Zhengqi, meet the five elders!"
More than 300 years, finally waiting for this moment.
Xiao Baiqiao's eyes were red, and he couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, two tears swirled in his eyes, and he choked up, "Good boy, get up quickly." ”
As he spoke, he helped him up, looking at the faces of the young man and the old man, and he had mixed feelings for a while.
Xiao Shiyu smiled at her gratefully, and turned to Luo Xia again.
Luo Xia saw that Xiao Baiqiao was so happy, and the resentment in her heart was also three points less, and her expression towards Xiao Shiyu was not so reluctant.
But he saw that the young master of the Xiao family hugged him and said, "Family affairs are tired, I can't say anything, I can't help Brother Luo." ”
Luo Xia was stunned, he never thought that the person his mother had been looking for for so many years would apologize to him when they met.
Xiao Baiqiao was also stunned, and then felt even more comforted in his heart, the young master has suffered many accidents since he was a child, and he can still have such a heart, which is worthy of being a good son of the Xiao family.
Luo Xia came back to her senses and rubbed her nose a little uncomfortably, "This, what is this for, I don't have the surname Luo." ”
"You kid. Xiao Baiqiao glared at him, but he was full of affection, and then turned to Xiao Shiyu and said, "Let me officially introduce to you, this is my daughter, Xiao Luoxia." ”
Xiao Shiyu was shocked, and then looked at Luo Xia, she was slightly shorter than him, similar in height to Xiao Baiqiao, from the perspective of a male monk, she was indeed pale and thin, but this face was not feminine, and there was no sense of disobedience under the men's clothes, if Xiao Baiqiao didn't say it, he would definitely not see that this was a female cultivator!
"The relationship of identity, raised as a boy since childhood, Zhao Pinsheng is insidious, in case he knows that I have a daughter, I don't know what despicable things to do, and then she studied in the academy, I don't want her to be affected by the identity of the deacon's son, so I changed my name slightly. ”
Speaking of this, she stroked her daughter's long hair hanging down at the back of her head, inky and green, but tied with a men's crown.
This child has suffered a lot with her.
Luo Xia was a little embarrassed, after all, there was an outsider here.
