Chapter 169: The Xue Family
Half of the water ghost's face sank into the water, looking miserable, and when he spoke, he still gurgled bubbles, "I am an earthbound spirit, and I can't leave this water." ”
When the ghost world was first formed, Liang Lu, the ghost of the Hidden Habitat, cast a spell to summon all the yin things, but the earth binding spirit was not forcibly recruited because of its special attributes.
The ghosts Xue Huai had seen in the past were quite free, and it was the first time he had encountered the Earth Bound Spirit, so it was inevitable that he would talk a little more.
The water ghost has been lonely for many years, and someone is willing to chat with him, he is quite happy, and he also wants to give Xue Huai the pearls he has stored in the past to make entanglement.
Xue Huai refused to accept it, and he still remembered the money Tu Shanling gave him, and he was ready to return it later, but he really didn't know how to pay it back, so his attitude was very resolute.
The water ghost was a little injured and held the pearl, "Don't you want to be friends with me?"
Xue Huai: "We're already friends. ”
Water Ghost: "Then why don't you want my pearl?"
Xue Huai: "I haven't read a book, I don't understand the big truth, I can't say it clearly, I just think that if you are a true friend, you will definitely not covet your things." ”
The water ghost blinked, and sank into the water again, and his voice became even more muffled, "But there is a pearl diver, he is my friend, he drinks for me every night, chats with me, I give him pearls, and he accepts the same." ”
Xue Huai tilted his head, he didn't understand it after thinking about it for a long time, and he couldn't tell if that situation could be regarded as a true friend.
He bit his lower lip with his upper teeth, bit it for a while, and said, "He is a pearl diver, and you gave him pearls, so he took it." And I'm not, so I don't take it. I think friends can help each other, but they have to help with ideas. ”
The water ghost intuitively liked this man, so he asked, "What do you want?"
Xue Huai took out the money bag from his arms, "I don't want anything, I have entanglements, I just want to go to Linxi." ”
The water ghost's eyes lit up and floated up slightly, revealing his entire head.
He stretched out his hand and pointed north, "This river leads to Linxi, and I can take you to the neighborhood." I don't dare to get too close, the people of the Xue family will arrest me. ”
Some people say that the fastest creature in the water is the sailfish, but in fact, the water ghosts are the fastest in the rivers, lakes and seas, and they swim with all their might, and it is difficult for even the spiritual eye to catch them.
Xue Huai didn't know this, but he couldn't say no more when he looked at the water ghost's wet eyes.
This water ghost is good-looking, even if he is dead, his appearance is not ugly, and he has a bit of bookish air on his body, even if he is a ghost, it is easy to make people believe that he will not harm people.
Xue Huai said, "Then thank you very much." ”
The water ghost smiled and lay flat on the water, gurgling and foaming, and said sullenly: "You sit on my back." ”
Xue Huai entered the water according to his words and sat cross-legged on the back of the water ghost, he originally thought that the water ghost would at least sink down, but he knew that the water ghost was stable and didn't move.
Water Ghost: "Hold on to me, I'm leaving." ”
Xue Huai lowered his body and grabbed the water ghost's shoulder.
The water ghost shot forward like an arrow off the string.
The wind was blowing, Xue Huai didn't dare to open his eyes at all, his eyes would be very painful, Rao was so, he also felt the wind pulling his hair, and his whole scalp was numb.
He raised his left hand with difficulty and pressed the top of his head, he didn't know what the children of the Xue family looked like, but he had seen Tu Shanling and Song Qian, his bearing and appearance were extraordinary, he thought, although he was not as good as those two, he couldn't be a bald man.
The farther north he went, the colder the water became, and when he felt like he was about to freeze through, he finally reached the left side of the river.
The water ghost raised his hand and pointed westward, "If you go straight west for thirty miles, it will be Linxi." ”
Xue Huai went ashore and saluted the water ghost upright, "Thank you." ”
The water ghost smiled shyly, and his eyes were full of reluctance, "Goodbye." ”
Everyone in the world thinks that ghosts are evil, and what they say to scare children is that if you are disobedient, let the water ghosts catch you as a substitute for the dead, how do you know that ghosts are good, strange or not, they are not necessarily bad, they appear many times, not to make trouble, but because they are too lonely.
After Xue Huai said goodbye repeatedly, he set off for the west.
The inky sky in the distance began to glow, and the golden-red light tore through the thick clouds, forcing back the darkness, and a new day dawned.
The outline of the city of the Levles was revealed.
Lieren, which means a person of fame.
The history of the Xue family is basically equivalent to the history of war, the ancestor of his family was born in an ordinary reckless background, and then he was dissatisfied with the oppression of the family, uncovered the uprising, and led a group of rabble, and won many battles, and the territory also expanded rapidly from the original village and county, laying the foundation for the prosperity of the Xue family.
After the ancestors of the Xue family, the Xue family has produced many war celebrities in the past dynasties, and it can be said that every time a battle is fought, there will be a few people in the Xue family who are famous.
It is because the Xue family is famous, and there are many people.
After the city was built in Linxi, the city was named Lieren.
The city walls of the city are also very distinctive, and the battlements are full of reliefs, and the carvings are all the heads of celebrities of the Xue family.
Over the years, the battlements on the city wall were basically filled with reliefs, and even Xue Jin's big head was on it.
Even if Tu Shanling and Song Qian both think that Xue Jin is terrible stupid and lazy, it is an indisputable fact that Xue Jin is Ping Lejun, and he is still a high-ranking existence in the eyes of outsiders.
Xue Huai looked up at the high city gate tower, but a cordial feeling was born in his heart.
This is where his father was born.
His mood has always been very conflicted, he is very resentful of his father's abandonment of him and his mother, but after he really arrived at the place, he inevitably had some expectations in his heart.
He hoped that his father would have something unspeakable, so he had to abandon his wife and children.
He walked forward with the procession entering the city, and when he passed by the city guard, he stopped and asked, "Sorry, excuse me, how can I meet the people of the Xue family?"
The city guard's gaze was cold, "How can the people of the Xue family be seen if you say you, get out!"
Xue Huai was so embarrassed that he didn't feel annoyed in his heart, and handed over a piece of broken silver with a smile, "It's convenient to ......"
The city guard pushed Xue Huai's hand away, and the silver fell to the ground, rolled several times, and was blocked by a pair of boots before stopping.
Xue Huai glanced at Yinzi, but didn't stand up straight, just hunched his back, bent his legs, and quickly leaned over, wanting to reach out to pick it up.
But the silver was trampled on.
Xue Huai paused, looked up along his boots, and saw a childish face.
The little boy leaned over and stared at Xue Huai's face, "You want to find someone from the Xue family?" he raised his foot and kicked the silver, "It's not enough to use three melons and two dates." ”
Xue Huai stood up and saluted, "Childe only needs to put forward the conditions, as long as I can do it, I will do my best." ”
Burst!
The city guards couldn't hold back, and they laughed out loud, and when they looked at Xue Huai again, it was like looking at a fool.
Xue Huai has been in the market for many years, and he has long practiced the kung fu of observing words and feelings, and immediately realized that the identity of the little boy in front of him is not ordinary.
He saluted again, "It's me who lost my words, please don't blame the son." ”
