Chapter 530: The Wealthy Xiao Family

Lying on Xiao Xiong's back, Li Xiaohong felt the softness and warmth on his back because he was afraid, and Xiao Xiong's heart fluctuated a little. Fortunately, the pitch-black mountain road forced him to concentrate on his feet and did not have time to think about it.

Although it was still the height of summer, the cold mountain wind was still blowing in the ears of the two, and from time to time, Xiao Xiong stepped on the edge of the mountain road, and the gravel immediately rolled down the bottomless cliff, and he didn't even hear the sound, which made Li Xiaohong creepy.

Xiao Xiong, on the other hand, changed his steps dexterously and briskly, constantly avoiding dangerous places, and then stepped on the flat road. Let Li Xiaohong on her back feel as exciting as riding a roller coaster.

It was originally a half-hour journey, but it only took less than ten minutes for Xiao Xiong to carry Li Xiaohong on his back. After about an hour, the mountain road in front of her gradually flattened, and Li Xiaohong knew that she was going down the mountain. She wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is it here?" asked Li Xiaohong.

Xiao Xiong nodded: "It's here." ”

Unlike the pitch black just now, there were a few lights in front of the two. There are not many lights, and compared to the night of Haicheng, which is connected together, it is simply a world of difference. The sporadic lights are more like torches lit by primitive people, and it seems a little lonely in this barren mountain range, but it is the only place with people within a radius of 100 miles.

Li Xiaohong couldn't understand why, according to the laws of sociology, there was a settlement here.

From far to near, the outline of the village is clearer. Next to a tiled house is a dark forest. Even in the middle of the night, with the lights from the village, Li Xiaohong could still clearly distinguish that it was a locust tree. The tree is tall and looks like it has been many years old. This may be the origin of the name of Huai Village.

Such a simple natural atmosphere made Li Xiaohong's whole person relax, and she gradually approached the entrance of the village with Xiao Xiong, but the scene in front of her surprised her.

The tiled house is still the tiled house just now, but this village is obviously planned as a whole, it looks old on the outside, but the house arrangement and drainage system are in good order, and the planning level is not lost to Haicheng, and even has a fight with the capital. And the whole village is spotlessly clean as if it has been washed in water. It clearly doesn't look like an old village.

Taking Li Xiaohong through the village, Xiao Xiong stopped in front of three small houses.

"Here it is. Xiao Xiong said.

The three small houses, like the other tiled houses, are very rustic. Surrounded together, it is a bit like a miniature version of the courtyard house in Beijing. In the middle is a courtyard with bluestone bricks on top, giving people a sense of agility. A few dozen meters away is a muddy field, very flat, as if someone has taken care of it.

"Is this where your grandfather lives?" asked Li Xiaohong.

She was a little surprised. According to the information she gathered, although Xiao Guohuai had lived in seclusion in such a remote village, his previous ability had accumulated a large amount of capital, and he could live like an emperor of the soil. At the very least, the Xiao family back then was incomparable to other families in Haicheng. That's why the Feng family took the initiative to marry the Xiao family.

Of course, later the Xiao family declined because of the internal contradictions of the family, and they couldn't even keep their jobs. Although there is a little shadow of Xiao Guohuai on Xiao Xiong's body, there are still some gaps between the two.

Xiao Xiong touched his head: "It used to be." ”

"Ever?" Li Xiaohong was even more puzzled.

Xiao Xiong had to patiently explain to Li Xiaohong that he had only seen his grandfather a few times when he was a child, and that was more than ten years ago. At that time, my grandfather did live in these three simple tiled houses, and he was very close to the villagers. There are even rumors that this village was founded by grandpa.

But that's just a rumor. Although Grandpa enjoyed a high status in the village, he was not a village chief secretary or anything like that, not even a small village official. In Xiao Xiong's memory, people would often come to his grandfather with a basket of wild vegetables, and his grandfather would enthusiastically pick vegetables for them, pick out the bad ones, and leave the good ones.

Wait, wild vegetables? That's not wild vegetables! Xiao Xiong shook suddenly. Now that he is an immortal doctor, he can naturally distinguish the so-called wild vegetables in his memory, which are actually fake herbs!

Grandpa actually knows how to identify herbs, can he say......

The more Xiao Xiong thought about it, the more excited he became, as if a big secret lay in front of his eyes. And later, he will reveal the secret himself.

"Xiao Xiong?" Looking at Xiao Xiong, who didn't know what to think, Li Xiaohong patted him on the shoulder.

"Huh?"

"Where does your grandfather live now, do you know?"

Xiao Xiong looked around. Sure enough, on the east side of the three tiled houses, there was a faint outline. The building looks so large that it obscures half of the horizon.

The closer they got, the more surprised the two became. In front is a huge square, which is not much different from the People's Square. On the square, there are only two stadium lights, which are a little dim because the bulbs have not been replaced for too long.

In stark contrast to the light, the two found a diamond-like sparkle at one end of the square.

"What's that?" Li Xiaohong asked in surprise.

"A Rolls-Royce Phantom?" Xiao Xiong couldn't believe his eyes.

"How did it get in?"

Li Xiaohong's question is not unreasonable. The two of them had walked all the way just now, and there was no mountain road that could lead to this small mountain village, let alone the harsh road that could allow the Rolls-Royce Phantom to pass through. It's just a fantasy, something that can only happen on a call.

Xiao Xiong spread his hands and said that he didn't know. Xiao Guohuai is still a mysterious figure for Xiao Xiong. It's just that he hasn't been here for more than ten years, and today really surprised him.

Behind the Rolls-Royce Phantom, there is a gate. This gate is quite primitive, like the Zhu Gate in front of the ancient imperial palace. On either side of the gate are two large lions. After a closer look, Li Xiaohong found that the two lions were actually made of white marble. This is simply the luxury of a palace. It seems that Xiao Guohuai's secluded life here is quite nourishing.

"Oh my God, you'd better go to your grandfather. Li Xiaohong has seen many big scenes, but in front of this palace-like building, Li Xiaohong actually has the feeling of being in the capital to meet the chairman.

Xiao Xiong shrugged his shoulders: "There have been so many changes here, I almost can't even recognize it." ”

It was only at this time that Li Xiaohong had a new understanding of the declining Xiao family. Don't look at Haicheng, the Xiao family is only left with Xiao Xiong and Xiao Mo. But as long as Old Man Xiao is willing to go out of the mountain, the entire Haicheng will definitely experience a terrifying earth-shattering upheaval. Even the legendary Lin family is probably not the opponent of the Xiao family.

This palace-like building, not to mention in Haicheng, even in the capital, I am afraid that there are not many of them. And the white marble lion and Rolls-Royce phantom in front of the door are even more symbols of power. Unexpectedly, Xiao Xiong has such a family background.

Vaguely, Li Xiaohong seemed to feel Xiao Guohuai's good intentions. Taking the initiative to be born and taking away the family wealth, on the one hand, can hone the ability of children and grandchildren, and on the other hand, it can be regarded as the sealing of wealth, which is a good move to preserve strength.

In case the Xiao family encounters any difficulties, these family backgrounds are enough for them to make a comeback.

Glancing at the young and old Xiao Xiong, Li Xiaohong said silently in her heart, is this the so-called Fumen Han Sect?

Glancing at the lights in the courtyard, Xiao Xiong knew that his grandfather must still be inside, and the stone in his heart also fell to the ground. It seems that grandpa's physical condition is still good.

"Let's go in first, while Grandpa hasn't slept yet. ”

After a long journey for most of the day, Li Xiaohong was really tired, and she was covered in wind and dust, and it was difficult to see people. So, she agreed with Xiao Xiong's idea and hoped to go into the palace and sit down.

Xiao Xiong pushed straight open the Zhu Gate. It is a custom in Huai Village that the door is not locked. It's like the Datong society thousands of years ago. The courtyard was very large, much larger than what Xiao Xiongzheng saw from the outside, but the things inside were still orderly and spotless. made Xiao Xiong wonder if his grandfather insisted on cleaning these things every day.

Stepping on the ground, Li Xiaohong felt that the texture of the ground was a little strange, and when she looked down, she exclaimed: "What kind of place is this?"

"Dirt floors. Looking down, Xiao Xiong immediately judged it.

It's just that this mud floor is as solid and flat as a concrete floor, as if someone has smoothed it out with extremely strong pressure. When a person walked on it, not only did he not raise any dust, but he did not even leave a footprint.

Observing it more closely, Xiao Xiong was taken aback because he saw the traces of True Qi on the ground. In other words, it was someone who practiced on this for a long time before the mud was leveled.

And who else could this person have besides Grandpa?

Xiao Xiong tried his best to suppress the exclamation in his heart, and then walked around the courtyard and found a room.

"Come in. ”

"Is this a guest room?" asked Li Xiaohong.

Xiao Xiong shook his head: "This is probably my new room. Originally, every time my family and I came back, we would live in one of the tiled houses. I walked around just now and found that this room was full of things from the old tiled house, and my grandfather probably moved that room over. ”

It turned out to be the case, Li Xiaohong walked in to take a look, and found that in addition to a bed, a set of tables and chairs, and some simple decorations, the room was full of bookshelves and books, adding up to thousands of books, so that the whole room was filled with the smell of paper.

"Is this the book you read?" asked Li Xiaohong in surprise.

Xiao Xiong smiled awkwardly: "My father watched it." I was so naughty when I was a kid, it would be nice not to tear up these books. ”

Li Xiaohong was amused by Xiao Xiong, and asked again, "Where is the place to take a bath?"

Xiao Xiong pointed to a door at the back of the room, and like a modern bedroom, there is usually a bathroom at the back of the room. The equipment in the bathroom is all imported from the East, which is quite modern and luxurious. There's even a large bathtub that can accommodate two people.

"Wash up, let's go see grandpa. There was a little commotion, and Grandpa should have known that we were back. "I know that Xiao Guohuai knows how to use true qi, which means that he is also a practitioner. The movement of Xiao Xiong and the two coming in is not small, Xiao Guohuai must know it.

Li Xiaohong looked at the watch on her wrist and asked softly, "Will it be a little late?" ”

"If he didn't sleep, it's not too late. ”

So, Li Xiaohong obediently walked into the bathroom. This is a complete set of shower systems imported from the East, which is more luxurious and advanced than the one in the mayor's villa. As soon as Li Xiaohong turned on the switch, several streams of water with just the right temperature and strength washed over her body, making her feel more comfortable, and the fatigue since the long journey was also swept away.
