Chapter Twenty-Three: It's actually very simple, but it's not that hard
Time passed quickly, and when she came out of the midnight hairpin space, Chu Xiaoyue simply cleaned up and walked towards the courtyard where Xiao Shiyu lived with Lan Zhi.
Since Xiao Shiyu lived in the Chu family, she had never been to see him.
During this time, there were a lot of guests in the Chu family, and there were many people, as the core of everyone's attention, she would inevitably get into trouble wherever she went, so she simply practiced behind closed doors, and the Chu family knew that it was best if she didn't come out, so she didn't specifically call her out these days.
Chu Xiaoyue was dressed in red, although her body had not yet grown up, she was dancing at the moment, but there was a sassy elegance in the wind.
A crescent-shaped eyebrow pendant between the eyebrows, a smile at the corner of the eye, and a slight upturn at the corner of the mouth, obviously in a very good mood.
"Tomorrow is the feast, time flies so fast. She and Lan Zhi's master and servant chatted as they walked.
"Yes, tomorrow is a big day, and it is said that there are more than 900 guests gathered now, and these people are all eager to see the demeanor of the eldest lady tomorrow. Lan Zhi has been by her side since she was a child, although there is a difference between master and slave, but in addition to awe, there is still some closeness in her heart.
Chu Xiaoyue laughed, "But they are all here to have a relationship with my father and mother, by the way, let's see if our family's legendary genius is round or flat, what do they do?" she changed the topic, "I've been in retreat for a while, how is Xiao Shiyu?"
"Xiao Gongzi...... It should be fine. ”
"Should it?" Chu Xiaoyue raised her eyebrows, "What's wrong?"
Lan Zhi hurriedly shook his head, "It's nothing, it's just ...... Nothing, very quiet. ”
Well. Chu Xiaoyue nodded, this was in line with his style.
Although she knows Xiao Shiyu's temperament, for the Chu family, he is a newcomer after all, a teenager who doesn't know anyone, and now he is close to the eldest lady, which can not be despised by anyone.
Lan Zhi paused, and said with some hesitation, "This young master of the Xiao family was brought back by the eldest lady, I don't know what you think of him?"
"That's good. Thinking of the days when she walked with Xiao Shiyu all the way, she couldn't help but feel a little better, "What's wrong?"
Lan Zhi shook his head, "My subordinates just think that Young Master Xiao has a withdrawn personality and is not easy to socialize with. ”
When the eldest lady was away, this person had been cultivating all the time, and he barely left the room, and the few people who were arranged around him had never spoken to him so far.
"Withdrawn? No, he's very talkative. "Please, that's the big devil, not only accompany her shopping, sweep goods, eat, drink and have fun, but also protect her all the way.
This is still called loneliness, so what is gentleness?
"Has anyone come to him these days?" she thought for a moment, and added, "Visiting, or inquiring, is there?"
"Nope. Lan Zhi understood what she meant, "The people in the family have been entertaining guests recently, and they rarely move around here, the head of the family once issued an order to block the news of Young Master Xiao's stay in the Chu family, and several young masters living in the courtyard next to him thought that this courtyard was still empty." ”
I see, I'm afraid my father doesn't want to cause more trouble.
"Have the people from the Xiao family arrived?"
"I arrived a few days earlier, and it was Xiao Jinqing, the young master of the Xiao family, who personally led the team, but it was strange to say, except for him, Zhao Pinsheng and the elders of the Xiao family did not come. ”
While talking, the two had already arrived outside Xiao Shiyu's hospital.
Entering the small courtyard, only the two guards arranged by Chu Xiaoyue were guarding in the outer courtyard, and when they saw her coming, they hurriedly came out of the hiding place and saluted her.
Xiao Shiyu, who was cultivating in the house, heard the voice, came back to his senses from his meditation, opened the door, and saw a little girl in red standing in the courtyard, looking at him with a smile.
"I heard that you haven't been out lately, are you still used to being here?" the two entered the house and sat down, and Chu Xiaoyue asked.
"It's good, there are a lot of people outside, and I don't want to go out, it's extremely rare for me to be able to cultivate quietly like this. Xiao Shiyu smiled faintly.
He had been incognito before, and the place where he lived was mixed with fish and dragons, and the aura was thin, but now he was in the Chu family's excellent courtyard, and the aura was strong, which was a good place for cultivation that he couldn't ask for.
In the past few days of cultivating here, he has made quite progress, the sixth-level cultivation of Qi cultivation that he had broken through on the road has been stabilized, and he has a feeling that if he continues to cultivate, he will be able to advance again in two or three years at most.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be even more grateful to Chu Xiaoyue.
"Your cultivation is ......" He just sensed a little, but found that he could easily feel Chu Xiaoyue's cultivation.
Probably only in the early stage of Qi training, the appearance of the first or second layer.
The two of them used to walk all the way, and at that time, neither of them had collected spiritual power, and they knew that each other's cultivation should be similar.
"Oh, it's because of this. She picked up the jade pendant on her waist, "This is given to me by the ancestor, it can be disguised for cultivation, I thought that after washing the marrow just now, the first and second layers of qi cultivation should be about the same." ”
As soon as this jade pendant left his body, he really couldn't feel her cultivation.
Xiao Shiyu frowned and put the jade on for her, "The ancestor of the Chu family gave you such a treasure, you have to be careful to wear it, you must not leave it easily in the future, and you must not tell others." ”
Chu Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice, "Anyway, you know it, and I don't want to hide it from you." ”
The young man's expression was serious, and his tone was a little heavier, "No matter who asks you in the future, you can't reveal the usefulness of this jade pendant!"
After saying this, I saw the little girl pouting, aggrieved, the young man relaxed his tone, "Do you know how rare the treasure of qi is, although I didn't grow up in my own family, but I have seen a lot of spiritual weapons, my father once told me that thousands of years ago, there was a battle between the sects, and many yuan infants were killed and injured, just for a treasure of qi!
Chu Xiaoyue couldn't understand what he meant, so she nodded in response, and just said in a low voice, "I know you definitely won't tell anyone else......"
Yes, he is Xiao Shiyu, he is Xiao Shiyu who destroyed the world for Chu Xiaoyue.
Xiao Shiyu frowned, worried that she wouldn't listen, and said, "In this world, there is no distinction between good and evil, black and white are unknown, even if you are close to your relatives, you can do whatever it takes for your power and position, you are still young, you must remember, you must not trust anyone!"
"I know, I don't trust others!" Chu Xiaoyue raised her head with a stubborn expression, "I will believe you!"
"You ......"
The boy was stunned, wanting to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
It's only been two months since we've known each other, and it's hard to believe it.
But he felt that she had not lied to him.
Just like himself, after walking all the way, protecting each other in life and death, confessing outside the city, and then settling in the Chu family, everyone's care.
These bits and pieces seem to unconsciously melt his heart that has always been ice-solid.
He has no friends, and now he has lost even his relatives.
He couldn't believe anyone, but he couldn't seem to be wary of this little girl.
Even he felt that he trusted her.
After all, even this life was saved by her, didn't she?
Now he has nothing, but if he can still taste trust.
Is that also in this cruel and unkind world, there is a trace of concern.
