"I'm too old to be useful. But Jiaojiao is so young, and your old injuries are difficult to heal, and you are leaving the Xia family, where are you going?"

"Ah Ren and I were in the upper realm back then, and there were quite a few powerful close friends, and now the spirit master of the Xia Ji business in Coral City is one of them. He is very fond of Kyaukjiao, and he once said that he wants to bring the two of us back to the Upper Realm Master Gate to settle down, this old ancestor but please rest assured. This remark is pure nonsense, just an excuse that Xia Jiang discussed with Xia Jiao.

The old ancestor was skeptical, and finally reluctantly agreed, letting the two of them leave, just hoping that they could stay until his ninetieth birthday before leaving.

\tThere are still more than two months before the ninetieth birthday of the ancestor, Xia Jiang and Xia Jiao glanced at each other and nodded in agreement.

Before the two of them retired, the old ancestor patted Xia Jiang on the shoulder and said, "You don't have to worry too much about Xi Yangcai, I still have a little incense with the brother of the old lady of the Xi family, and if he comes forward, that kid will definitely not be entangled more." In the meantime, you can just stay in peace. ”

\t sent Xia Jiang and Xia Jiao away, Uncle Fan, an old servant who had served the ancestor for many years, made a pot of fragrant tea and walked in, and found the old ancestor sitting by the window, stunned and didn't know what he was thinking.

\t Uncle Fan didn't dare to disturb, put down the teapot and wanted to go out, but suddenly heard the old ancestor say: "What do you think, this little girl?"

Uncle Fan was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "Miss Kyaukjiao is naturally very smart and talented. ”

\t"Do you also think that I am too partial to Ah Jiang and their room?" the old lady rubbed his eyebrows and said tiredly.

\t "The old slave only knew that everything the old ancestor did was for the good of the Xia family, and the head of the family and those people in the clan didn't understand it for a while. Uncle Fan replied cautiously.

\tThe old ancestor smiled coldly, and a glimmer of essence flashed in his eyes: "They really don't understand! For no reason, how could that kid surnamed Xi go to Jiaojiao? Is it really just a matter of seeing the color? Jiaojiao is only a few years old, if the surname Xi is so shallow and impatient, he will not be selected early and become a disciple of the Upper Realm Doufu Sect." I'm afraid that this kid is a drunkard who doesn't mean to drink, and wants to use Kyauk Jiaojiao to lure out the spirit master senior who supported Ah Jiang and her behind him. ”

Speaking of this, the old ancestor couldn't breathe, his face turned pale, and he was shaking on the case.

Uncle Fan was shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward to support him and said, "Ancestor, what's wrong with you? ”

The old ancestor didn't answer, his right hand trembled and took out a white jade medicine bottle from his arms, poured out a pale green, fragrant elixir, and took it with the hot tea sent by Uncle Fan.

The effect of that pill seemed to be good, and after a while, the old ancestor's pale face gradually returned to ruddy, and his breath became steady and long.

He exhaled slowly and sighed, "I'm fine, at least for the time being...... People can't disobey old age, but Agu is so uncompetitive. Old Fan, go ahead, let me be quiet. ”

\tUncle Fan wanted to speak and stopped, and finally quietly withdrew.

\tIn the center of the Xia family's old house, in the courtyard where Xia Gu's family lives, Jiao Yan is screaming at her husband Xia Gu with all her might:

\t"Didn't you say that the old immortal failed to pass the pass and would not live for a year at most? I think he is very energetic, and it will not be a problem to live another ten or eight years. How long do we have to endure it?! I can't stand it anymore, that old immortal is completely devoted to those two old and young wastes! What kind of drug did they give the old thing? I'm so angry! How can I say that you are also the head of the Xia family, she has no merit and hard work for more than 20 years, and in front of so many people, he even said that he will beat him, what face will I have in the future? How can you still be the head of this family? Just let Xia Jiang's old waste be the head of the house. ”

The more she talked, the more aggrieved she became, the more angry she became, the room was a mess full of debris, and everything that could be smashed by antiques had already been smashed by her.

\tXia Gu sat aside with a calm face, letting her vent silently.

\tHe couldn't figure out why the old man didn't die.

\t More than three years ago, he finally bought off the people around the ancestor, and got the exact news that the ancestor's situation was not good, but he didn't expect that an old man who was said to be not dead at the moment, and should be weakened, but the more he lived, the more energetic he became, and the more he was angry, he was more energetic than him.

\t The person who gave him the news, it is impossible to lie to him, what went wrong?!

\tA Emperor Taishang pressed on his head, I don't know how long it will last.

\tIf it goes on like this, not only his wife Jiao Yan can't stand it, but he can't stand it anymore.

\t"Master, there's news over there......" Outside the door, Xia Gu's confidant Bai Cai reported in a low voice.

Xia Gu let out an "um" and motioned for him to come in and speak.

\t Bai Cai walked into the room with low eyebrows, and saw that Xia Gu didn't mean to ask his wife to avoid it, so he said: "There was just news over there, saying that the old ancestor had been taking the pill since he left the customs, and he finally found an opportunity to steal a Tuo Xue shopkeeper to identify it." It is a very rare internal injury pill 'Yiqi Pill' in the legal fighting industry, and the market price of each is at least 100 spirit beads. The ancestors are too old and have limited medicinal effects, but as long as they insist on taking it every ten years and recuperate carefully, it is completely possible to prolong life for three or five years. ”

\tJiao Yan couldn't help but when she heard this: "Damn old thing, there are still such good things hidden! One hundred spirit beads, one every ten years, he is really willing to eat! After three or five years, the Xia family will let him eat empty! Why didn't he die earlier!"

\tBai Cai originally wanted to say something, but after listening to the words of the master's mother, it was difficult to say.

\tXia Gu noticed that his expression was strange, and snorted: "If you have something to say, don't spit out." ”

\t" said that this medicine was most likely sent by Xia Jiang. Bai Cai said in a low voice.

\tXia Gu and Jiao Yan's faces became even more ugly, no wonder the old ancestor favored Xia Jiang and them, this old waste is really willing to spend money!

\t immediately thought that they had been staring at the accounts of the Xia Ji firm in Coral City, it was impossible for Xia Jiang to embezzle so much money to support and please the ancestors, could it be that his private family background was so strong?!

It seems that Xia Jiang and Xia Ren's two uncles and nephews made a fortune in the upper realm back then!

\tSuch a rich man wants to return to the Nether Realm to rob them of his property, which is really hateful!

\t Baicai said again: "Over there, the ancestor said something after they left in Xiajiang, let me tell the head of the family the original words." ”

When Xia Gu heard this, he immediately straightened his face and said, "You say, say it clearly word for word." ”

\tBai Cai cheered up and actually repeated what the ancestor had said to Uncle Fan before.

\tXia Gu's face changed a few times, he pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth and said: "The old thing reminded me that the person surnamed Xi will not come to our Liuli City for no reason...... He was indeed here for the spirit master behind Xia Jiang! Isn't the old business of the Treasure Treasure Pavilion selling spirit runes. can let the people of the Treasure Treasure Pavilion come to the door in person, Xia Jiang's old waste, the spirit master invited is only afraid that it will be a lot of money. ”

\t"Then what should I do?If the surnamed Xi joins forces with Xia Jiang and them, are we in Xia's house, is there still a place to stand?" Jiao Yan said anxiously.

\t "The amount is not a gentleman, and it is not a husband who is not toxic...... One by one, I Xia Gu is a paper paste?!" Xia Gu's eyes flashed with a fierce light and sneered.

\t "What are you going to do?" asked Jiao Yan.

\t Xia Gu said word by word: "Madame, have you forgotten, in seven days, what day will it be?"

\tJiao Yan was slightly stunned, and then laughed knowingly: "You have to plan well, it's best to completely solve that old thing and the little slut together!"

\t Seven days later, it is the twenty-second day of November, the big day when the Xia family in Liulicheng goes into the mountains to hunt once a year.

\t The ancestors of the Xia family lived by hunting for generations, and later a child of the Xia family, on November 22 of a certain year, found a cave ruins of a congenital warrior in the mountain, which contained several exercise cheats and a large number of relics.

As a result, the children of the family embarked on the road of cultivation, and several martial artists of the Ninth Layer Great Perfection Realm of the Acquired Heavens were produced, and only after several generations of accumulation did they have the inheritance of the Xia family in Liuli City.

Therefore, November 22 of each year has become a very important day for the Xia family.

On this day, all the young children of the Xia family who are over 14 years old and under 20 years old, regardless of gender, must leave Liuli City, and be led by their elders to hunt in the mountains outside the city, and after three days, all the prey will be brought back to the city and sent to the ancestral hall of the Xia family as a sacrifice to worship the ancestors, so as to show that they will not forget the ancestral roots.

\t Xia Jiao happened to be on the list of participants this year, Xia Jiang was naturally extremely worried, but unless Xia Jiao was completely removed from the family, he couldn't find a reason not to go.

\tThey have already decided to leave the Xia family, but if they ask to be removed from the family tree because they are afraid of the danger of participating in the family hunting activities, it will not only be Xia Jiao, but even Xia Ren and Xia Jiang will be forever stigmatized.

\tAlthough he is used to being a turtle with a shrunken head, Xia Jiao can't do it like this to escape and humiliate his ancestors.

Fortunately, this year, the old ancestor is out of the customs, he personally led the team, and with him in charge, Xia Gu and the others should not dare to make any small moves.

\t Before leaving, Xia Jiang repeatedly explained: "No matter what happens, remember to follow closely by the ancestor." ”

\t Xia Jiao nodded and said, "I know, Grandpa Jiang, don't worry." ”

But according to the family practice, he could not go with him, so he could only ask the ancestor to take more care of him.

\tWatching the Xia family and his party ride out of the city on horseback, Xia Jiang always felt heavy in his heart, as if something bad was about to happen......

\t In the courtyard of the old mansion of the Xia family in Liuli City, Xi Yangcai was standing on the verandah to enjoy the snow, and the shopkeeper Xue hurriedly walked in from outside the courtyard and reported in a low voice: "The old man of the Xia family has set off with people." ”

\t Xi Yangcai smiled and said, "Okay, it depends on whether the Xia family's big drama will lead that mysterious spirit master out." ”

\tShopkeeper Xue brushed the snow foam on his robe and said, "That little girl...... It's a pity, and it's also a pity that she doesn't know how to lift. ”
