Chapter IV: Plea

After a long time, Xuan Zhen's cough interrupted the chaotic lobby. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Looking around at the silence, Xuan Zhen's gaze fell on Xuan Ze again, and then said to Xuan Ze in a cold tone without any emotion, "It is a matter of course to burn the divine pattern for the guards, and the old man will not, and he has no right to deprive you of this right!" However, in order to protect the safety of the guards, a physical fitness test is also essential! Three days later, at the Xuan Family Ancestral Hall, the old man will personally check the physique of the guards on this expedition, and burn the divine pattern for those who are qualified! Are you satisfied with the old man's answer? ”

Looking at the majestic old man in front of him, Xuan Ze frowned slightly, and sighed silently in his heart, "Alas, grandfather is really not easy to fool... In the end, he still couldn't avoid the physical fitness test..."He was so loud, he just wanted to make Xuanzhen Ancestor take the initiative to ignore the relatively minor physical fitness test with an indomitable momentum, but he didn't want to end up just in vain...

Unlike Xuan Ze's disappointed disappointment, after listening to Xuan Zhen's answer, the Xuan family elders around him were all stunned, they really couldn't imagine that Xuan Zhen would actually promise Xuan Ze to personally check the physique and carve the divine pattern for the Xuan family guards three days later.

It must be known that with Xuan Zhen's current status, the entire Great Moon Kingdom is qualified to let him personally depict the divine pattern, but there are very few, how much glory does this have?

The same stunned faces were the side guards outside the lobby, but their consternation only lasted for a moment before turning into countless whispers of excitement.

Seeing that Xuan Zhen made such a big concession, Xuan Ze didn't respond for a long time, and just blindly bowed his head and kept silent, Xuan Qing finally couldn't help it, and opened his mouth angrily, "Rebel, didn't you hear the words of the Great Elder?" The Great Elder has already given in like this, what do you want? If you don't know what to do, don't blame your father for being ruthless! Don't think that you are a guard and can act recklessly, telling you that as long as you don't arrive for a day, you will still be a child of my Xuan family, and you will still be subject to my Xuan family! ”

Are there any concessions?

Glancing at Xuan Qing, the corners of Xuan Ze's eyes showed a faint mockery, in his opinion, Xuan Zhen's promise was just to continue to implement the established rules and meet the rights of the guards, and it was not a concession at all.

But ridicule is ridicule, Xuan Ze still bowed slightly to Xuan Zhen, "In this way, there will be Elder Lao Da in three days!" The tone was polite, but it was without a hint of gratitude.

Seeing this situation, Xuan Qing and all the Xuan family elders were frowning and furious, but when they were about to open their mouths to teach Xuan Ze a lesson, they were interrupted by Xuan Zhen waving his hand.

"Alright, that's all for today! After three days, after completing the physical fitness test and the depiction of the divine pattern, you will set off directly for the Glowing Forest. For these three days, the family will not restrict your freedom, and you will experience the 'last indulgence'. After saying that, Xuan Zhen got up and left the lobby.

After Xuan Zhen left, Xuan Qing and the others didn't say anything more, only snorted coldly, and left the lobby with the same flick of their sleeves.

After leaving the lobby, Xuan Ze returned to the room alone, and did not go out to play in groups like other guards.

He was now very nervous, not knowing if he would be able to pass the physical fitness test in three days' time.

After thinking hard for a long time, Xuan Ze sighed deeply, and then a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and he pursed his lips and walked out of the room.

After twists and turns along the way, Xuan Ze came to a quaint and deep old courtyard.

In front of the old courtyard, two black-robed old men stood quietly, as if two piers in the endless torrent were resisting, deep and solid.

The two old men did not react to Xuan Ze's approach, and still stood in place like statues.

And Xuan Ze didn't seem to have the intention of talking to the two old men, but looked at the right arm of one of the old men with some jealousy and envy, and then walked to the door of the old mansion.

Standing in front of the door of the old mansion, Xuan Ze took a deep breath, tidied up his clothes, and then gently knocked on the mottled wooden door.

After a while, an old but majestic voice came from inside the wooden door, "Come in." ”

Receiving permission, Xuan Ze pursed his lips and pushed the door open after a brief hesitation.

Inside the house, Xuan Zhen's fierce gaze instantly swept over, and the direct shot made Xuan Ze's scalp numb and his skin painful.

Gritting his teeth, Xuan Ze bowed respectfully, "Meet grandfather." "In the Xuan family, according to tradition, under normal circumstances, when talking about official affairs, the children of the Xuan family cannot call their relatives directly, only when talking about private affairs. Therefore, in the lobby, Xuan Ze and the others could only call Xuan Zhen the Great Elder.

Xuan Ze called Xuan Zhen his grandfather here, which is equivalent to making it clear that he came as a grandson this time.

"What's the matter?" After a long time, Xuan Zhen slowly withdrew his sharp gaze, and then said lightly.

"The child wants to practice the Xuanmai technique, and I hope that my grandfather will fulfill it." Kneeling on one knee, Xuan Ze lowered his head and said.

The so-called Xuanmai technique, that is, the ancestral vein technique of the Xuan family.

Listening to Xuan Ze's request, Xuan Zhen's lowered eyelids slowly raised, and after a long time, he said slowly, expressionlessly, "You should know that after becoming a life guard, you are actually equivalent to having left the family." And the Xuanmai technique is a top secret of the Xuan family, and it is impossible to pass it on to outsiders. ”

Hearing this, Xuan Ze lowered his head and pursed his lips, but then a trace of firmness flashed on his face, and then said, "Even so, it will be three days later, and at this moment, the child is still a child of the Xuan family, which must be undeniable by grandfather!" ”

After listening to Xuan Ze's "quibble", a trace of strangeness flashed on Xuan Zhen's indifferent face, but then he regained his composure, and then asked mockingly, "You have no confidence in yourself like this?" Think you can't pass a fitness test? "According to the rules, as long as the Xuan family guards can pass the physique test and depict the divine pattern, they can have the right to practice the Xuan Vein Technique. Therefore, Xuan Ze asked for the Xuanmai Technique at this time, making it clear that he did not have the confidence to pass the physical fitness test.

Ignoring Xuan Zhen's sarcasm, Xuan Ze still lowered his head, "The child only believes in the efforts of the day after tomorrow, and never hopes for the ethereal innate gift!" At least for so many years, everything God has given the child has made the child lose faith in it! Therefore, the child implored his grandfather, for the sake of the next generation of blood relatives, to give the child the opportunity to practice the Xuanmai technique! With that, his head lowered again.

The long ordeal has taught him that instead of praying to Heaven to open his eyes and give him a good body, it is better to work himself and make himself strong.

The physique test is too variable, and it is all determined by God, and it is not something that he can pass with confidence at all. To put it bluntly, even the genius Xuantian in the family, without practicing the Xuanmai Technique, may not be able to successfully pass the so-called physique test, let alone Xuanze them.

Even Xuantian, the darling of fate, didn't dare to say anything about nine out of ten, you want Xuanze to show a little confidence, isn't this a joke? If God really favored him so much, why did he fall to such a point?

A hint of strangeness flashed in his eyes again, and Xuan Zhen nodded slowly, "Although your thoughts are a little negative, it is undeniable that there is indeed some truth, and you are indeed not a person favored by fate." Speaking of this, Xuan Zhen paused, "However, there are no rules, there is no square circle, you can't set a precedent, otherwise, you will come to beg me when the time comes, wouldn't it be out of control?" If you really want to rest the Xuanmai Technique, you either pass the physical fitness test or go to the Council of Elders to apply, I will not abandon the public for personal reasons. ”

Hearing this, Xuan Ze raised his head violently, but saw Xuan Zhen's indifferent eyes. Xuan Ze knew that there would be no result if he continued to beg for it, so he slowly stood up, "In that case, then the grandson has retired." ”

Xuan Ze didn't know how he got back to his residence, he only felt cold in his heart, and there was no trace of warmth.

He had always felt that Xuan Zhen was a fair person, which was one of the reasons why he would come to request, he really couldn't imagine that Xuan Zhen would refuse him so simply and without any leeway.

said that it would not be abolished for public business, what was it like to Xuantian back then? Xuan Tian was eight years old that year, and his age alone did not meet the requirements for practicing the Xuan Pulse Technique, and you still didn't give the Xuan Pulse Technique the cultivation method?

Looking coldly at the coffee table on the table, Xuan Ze clenched his fists tightly.

After a long time, it slowly loosened.

This is not the first time he has encountered unfair treatment, although he is still inevitably a little unconvinced, but he has been able to control his emotions well.

Knock knock!

Just as Xuan Ze was trying to calm the unwillingness and resentment in his heart, a gentle knock came in.

"Who?" Jian frowned slightly, and Xuan Ze coldly spit out such a word. He has always kept a low profile in the Xuan family, and he has no friends at all, and he really can't imagine that anyone will come to him at this moment.

"Xuan Ling and Xuande came to pay their respects, and asked Cousin Xuan Ze to open the door." Outside the door, an elegant voice came in.

Hearing that the other party was a guard, Xuan Ze's slightly frowning brows slowly stretched. But despite this, he did not open the door, but said in an indifferent tone, "I'm sorry, I'm a little tired, I'll talk about it tomorrow." ”

Listening to the indifferent words coming from the house, Xuanling Jian's eyebrows frowned slightly, while Xuande on the side showed a trace of annoyance.

"Big brother, I think it's better to forget it, this kind of person who doesn't know what to do is not worth winning over at all, and there is no need for us to waste time here. When it is difficult to move an inch in the Glowing Forest Domain, he will naturally come to us to beg us. Xuande didn't deliberately hide his voice, so Xuanze in the house could hear it clearly.

Hearing the indignation in Xuan De's tone, Xuan Ze only smiled coldly and ignored it.

He was very clear about the purpose of Xuan Ling and Xuan De's visit this time, it was nothing more than forming a gang in order to be able to settle down in the Luminous Forest Domain, and even occupy a place.

However, the idea is good, but Xuan Ze knows that it must be difficult to really do it, and if one is not good, he will be imprisoned, or even never recovered.

Perhaps, in the past, their behavior could more or less increase their chances of survival in the Glowing Forest Domain, but now, it will backfire. Because the current Glowing Forest Domain is no longer the Glowing Forest Domain in ancient legends, and the current guards have long since lost their original appearance.

In the past, the Guardians' greatest enemies were the Alien Beasts and Ghouls under the Fault, but now, their enemies have become aliens from the Frontier and brothers who live in the same room......

However, because the alien races in the border regions are not very powerful, the relatively peaceful life for a long time has long made the guards forget the countless evil existences under the terror fault, and they have begun to be arrogant. Yi, fight for power and profit.

Now the Glowing Forest has become a special kingdom, the only difference is that it does not have the laws that a kingdom should have.

The only thing that involves all is one - the law of the jungle!

And after so many years of evolution, there have long been many groups there, and according to the tradition of the jungle, those who still exist in the Glowing Forest Domain are definitely the strongest guards in the hundreds of years.

In such a place, the more prominent you are, the more feared you will be, and the more jealous you are, the more they will attack you.

Directly leading a group into it like Xuan Ling is undoubtedly the most feared existence, and such an existence will have no other results than being swallowed up or exterminated by the stronger.

Xuan Ze just wants to cultivate well in the Glowing Forest Domain and live in peace, so naturally he will not lie down in such troubled waters. He didn't want to fight against the alien races in the border region while also guarding against his comrades behind him.

Glaring at Xuande with some reproach, Xuanling didn't entangle anymore, but sighed slightly and said, "Since that's the case, then Xuanling will come to visit another day." After saying that, he left with Xuande.

After sending away Xuan Ling and the others, Xuan Ze fell into contemplation again.

Xuan Ze didn't know what dangers there were in the Glowing Forest Domain other than the surprise attacks of the alien races and the cannibalism with Ze, but it was not difficult to see the danger from the death figures announced by the empire and the family every year, so before going to the Glowing Forest Domain, he had to find a way to find some support.
