Text [Eruption in Silence]_073 Who is the cloud, who is the mud
Xi Yangcai worked hard to maintain his demeanor and cultivation, but he was rudely ignored by Xia Jiao again and again, even the clay man also has an earthy temperament, not to mention that he is proud by nature, where can he stand such anger?
\t He was about to have a seizure, and someone around him couldn't look at it first, and hurriedly spoke: "A barbaric and rude country girl, dare to be so unsightly?! β
\t The person who spoke was a middle-aged woman who was walking with Xi Yangcai, her appearance was beautiful, and the arrogance between her eyebrows added a bit of brightness to her, and she was not a very easy person to get along with.
She is Xi Yangcai's distant aunt Yan Xunrou, who is in her early forties this year and is also a sixth-layer martial artist the day after tomorrow. Her husband died early, but with his own strength, he is now in charge of many important tasks in the Xi family.
\tThis time, she happened to have something to do in Tortoiseshell City, so she stopped by to meet Xi Yangcai, but she didn't expect to bump into this mess.
\tYan Xunrou heard Shopkeeper Xue roughly mention the matter of Xia Jiang Xia Jiao, she didn't believe that there would be a woman at all, and she was really willing to push her talented nephew out.
\tShe has a good relationship with Xi Yangcai, and has always regarded him as the hope and glory of the Xi family, where can she bear a yellow-haired girl to shout at him?
\tXia Jiao originally lacked a good impression of Xi Yangcai, coupled with Yan Xunrou's words, the impression of their family fell to the bottom, if it weren't for Grandpa Jiang, who was in a hurry to save her now, he couldn't waste his limited true energy indiscriminately, she really wanted these guys who felt too good about themselves to try the power of her spirit rune.
\tSure enough, it's not a family, and it doesn't enter a family. They seem to have decided that women all over the world have sharpened their heads to get into the Xi family and climb into the bed of a toad.
\tNarcissism to this point, even she has to bow down.
\tXia Jiao didn't want to continue to waste time on them, so he pulled out the hairpin and stabbed it hard on his horse's buttocks, and the horse under his crotch was in pain, regardless of the fact that he galloped forward.
Xi Yangcai and the other three didn't expect that she would use such brutal means to rush straight over, and she couldn't really hurt her, so she had to take the horse back a few steps, and she galloped towards Liuli City.
\tYan Xunrou's face turned blue with anger, stared at her distant back, and secretly swore in her heart: When you enter the Xi family, I will let you know how powerful your aunt and grandmother are!
\t Xi Yangcai frowned, turned his head to look at Xia Jiao's path, was silent for a moment, and suddenly said: "Aunt Six, please go back and mobilize people, I want to go into the mountain." β
Yan Xunrou instinctively wanted to refuse, but seeing that Shopkeeper Xue glanced at her again and again, she finally remembered Dou Fu Sect's order to Xi Yangcai, and reluctantly nodded: "Okay, you are careful." β
\t She turned her horse's head and was about to return to the city, when she suddenly heard Xi Yangcai say: "Mobilize the manpower, divide the troops into two ways, and send all the way to Xia's house to have a look, so as not to cause Xia Jiao to suffer a loss and have an accident." β
\t Yan Xun snorted heavily, but she still accepted it.
The shopkeeper Xue asked with some concern: "Young master, the mountains and forests outside the city stretch for thousands of miles, and looking for someone is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack......
\t Xi Yang said indifferently: "This may be our last chance, if Xia Jiang has three longs and two shorts, and then want to invite that spirit master, how easy it is to talk." Don't you expect Xia Jiao to be able to introduce you on your behalf?"
\tThe Doufu Sect sent an innate level spirit master to the Nether Realm to assist him, but unfortunately that person is now meditating in a secret place far away, and when he is notified to make a move, it may be too late.
Xi Yangcai was originally full of confidence, but the development of things was always not as expected.
He admitted that he underestimated Xia Jiang and Xia Jiao at first, and his attitude was too strong, and he missed several opportunities to befriend them, which provoked their disgust.
\t He intended to remedy it, but unfortunately the opportunity was fleeting, and Xia Jiang had already leaned towards Hongtang's side step by step.
\tXi Yang is not as gentle as Yan Xun, he has dealt with Xia Jiao a few times, he can be sure that Xia Jiao is not playing tricks with him, but really dislikes him.
Is it because in the beginning, he did something to her and said that he would take her as a concubine?
His Xi family is not only one of the five major forces in the Law Fighting Realm, but his own promotion to the Innate Realm is almost a certainty, coupled with his spiritual master talent, in the future, in the Doufu Sect, even if he is not in charge, he will be an elder-level ruler.
On the other hand, Xia Jiao, she was born in a third- or fourth-rate small family in the poor countryside of the legal fighting world, she has never heard of any great big people in the family, her parents are dead, and her uncle Xia Jiang is said to be a congenital earth-level powerhouse, but now she is nothing.
\tShe is surprisingly poor in talent, and she doesn't even know if there is a breakthrough on the day after tomorrow.
The only thing that can be done is the favor of a mysterious innate realm spirit master, which is mostly the love of Aiwu and Wu, and I don't know how long it will last.
\tIn all fairness, he Xi Yang was willing to officially accept her as a concubine, she burned high incense, what did she have to be dissatisfied with and unhappy?
\tEven if she doesn't like him and refuses, what else do you want?!
\tXi Yang felt that Xia Jiao and Xia Jiang were not pleasing to him for this matter, and it was very inexplicable. But beyond that, he couldn't think of anything else he had done that would disgust them.
\tBecause his intentions were too obvious?, but wasn't it because of the spirit runes in their hands that they responded to their requests?
The answer to this question was finally figured out by Xi Yang after a long time.
\tAt that moment, he understood what the difference between clouds and mud wasβhe used to think that he was a cloud and Xia Jiao was mud, but it turned out that people were really colorful clouds above the nine heavens, and he was just mud and sand in the world.
\t Now Xi Yangcai doesn't want to think about these anymore, the old man of the Xia family was desperate with the Xuanyi thief before, he didn't have a chance to save him first, and now if Xia Jiang and Xia Jiao owe him favors, he can only contribute to saving Xia Jiang.
\tAs long as you succeed in saving people, then everything is easy to talk about. Looking at Xia Jiang's temperament, he will find a way to repay him for this life-saving favor no matter what.
\tIf he loses again this time, especially if Xia Jiang has a case, then it is unlikely that he wants to catch that mysterious spirit master again.
\tXia Jiaoren is soft-spoken, his age is poor, and it is difficult to say whether he can contact that spirit master, let alone ask him to go out of the mountain to cooperate with the Doufu Sect.
\tShopkeeper Xue figured out this section, so he didn't persuade more, and followed Xi Yang to the depths of the mountain.
\tXia Jiao entered Coral City, immediately found Hongtang's station here, explained his intention, and asked to transfer two strong people above the eighth floor the day after tomorrow to accompany her to the Xia family's old mansion.
\tThis station is completely Hongtang for the convenience of trading with Xia Jiang, and it has just been opened, and there is only one young man stationed here every day - Fu Pi, the son of Fu Steward.
\t He listened to Xia Jiao's words, stood up and said, "Everyone else in this rudder has escorted the goods to Tortoiseshell City, and if you want to invite a master above the eighth floor, you need to wait for at least half a day." Saving people is like fighting fire, and I will accompany you on a trip. Although I have just broken through the fifth layer of the day after tomorrow, I still have a few self-defense spirit runes in my hand, and it is probably not possible to suppress the Xia family, but it should not be a problem for us to take it by surprise and kill back and forth. β
Fu Pi is twenty-five years old this year, his physical talent is only average, and he has not cultivated martial arts since he was a child, so his cultivation is not too high. However, his statement still won Xia Jiao's heartfelt gratitude.
The spirit rune she drew was indeed powerful, but it was not omnipotent, a young man of the fifth layer of the day after tomorrow, willing to accompany her on an adventure so without hesitation, this heart was much stronger than the previous toad.
\tWhen she was in trouble, Fu Bi thought of helping as much as he could, even if he might not be able to. And what Xi Yang thought of was to talk to her about the conditions, and then decide whether to help and how to help.
\tXia Jiao thought about it on the way here, in case Hongtang didn't have a hand-man, she could only go to the Xia family alone. Now there are people to help, although it is far from the ideal situation, but it is not the worst outcome.
\t She nodded vigorously and said, "Thank you for your kindness, we're ready to prepare, let's go!"
\tThe roads into the Xia family are all ready-made.
Although the tunnel leading to the quiet room in the courtyard of the old ancestor was discovered by Xia Biao and his son, because the ancestor was still there before, and Xia Biao and his son felt that it was good to keep this back road, it was not destroyed, but the mechanism of the entrance and exit of the well in the quiet room was restored, so that people could no longer enter the quiet room through the tunnel.
\tXia Piao didn't know that this tunnel actually had another exit in Xia's house, in the dry well near the kitchen in the backyard. This is what Xia Jiang later told Xia Jiao.
\tNow that the ancestor is gone, Xia Jiang is in danger again, Xia Jiao no longer cares about leaking secrets, so he decisively took Fu Pi out of the city quickly, went around to the cave where the tunnel exit was located, and turned on the mechanism and went to Xia's house.
\tFu Pi agreed to help Xia Jiao, completely out of a momentary mood. Xia Jiang and Xia Jiao are the distinguished guests that his father explained that he wanted to win over with all his might, and their requirements should be met as much as possible.
\tNot long after agreeing, Fu Bi regretted it a little.
It was too risky for him to break into Xia's house with Xia Jiao like this, if something happened, not only would he not be able to save Xia Jiang, but even the two of them would have to catch up.
\t It's just that the words have come out, and he can only bite the bullet.
\tNow seeing that Xia Jiao is not too flustered, and he is doing things clearly, he can't help but be secretly surprised, and at the same time breathe a sigh of relief: the little girl is soft and weak, it is rare to be so calm and decisive, although this operation is risky, it may not necessarily fail.
The two of them walked for a while, and finally came to the bottom of the dry well near the kitchen of the Xia family.
Beyond the circular wellhead that casts bright sky light above is the back house of the Xia family.
