Chapter 54: Bai Jingchen's Strangeness
When it was almost time for dinner, Xiao Wangshan, who received the news from Xiao Ruo, came to the secret realm in person with the help of the people sent by his granddaughter. He didn't mention Xiao Kecheng and the dead man Xiao Yongjiang, and only asked Xiao Ruo to repeat their conversation today to him.
"It's been a long time since I've seen your great-grandfather." After listening to Xiao Ruo's narration, Xiao Wangshan sighed in a low tone, "Ruoruo, do you have anything else to do today?" If not, accompany your grandfather to the forbidden place of the family. ”
"Family forbidden land? Where is it? Xiao Ruo frowned, a little hesitant.
Xiao Wangshan also seemed to be a little hesitant, he didn't answer Xiao Ruo's question, but pondered. Xiao Ruo didn't bother him, and thought about his own affairs on the sidelines.
"Forget it, it could be dangerous." After a while, Xiao Wangshan still vetoed this suggestion himself. He looked at Xiao Ruo, who had clear eyes on the other side, hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Grandpa knows that you have great skills and good medical skills, but if you can, give him a good time." ”
Xiao Ruo naturally knew who he was talking about, and glanced at her grandfather suspiciously, and she asked, "Is it okay?" Then it doesn't matter about the great-grandfather? ”
"I know my second uncle, and you can't get any real information from him. Now that we know that your great-grandfather is still alive, it will not be a problem to find him with the strength of the family. People like my second uncle can only have some small tricks, and I can still guess a thing or two about his thoughts. I'm afraid ......"
"Grandpa is afraid that great-grandfather has something to do with this incident, right?"
Xiao Wangshan smiled bitterly: "Not bad." Although I don't think he will be as short-sighted as Li Pei, after all, I haven't seen him for a long time. Just like the second uncle, I thought he had been a lot more stable in recent years, but the fact is that he still can't let go of his careful thoughts. ”
Seeing that his grandfather was obviously not in a good mood today, Xiao Ruo didn't talk to him about this aspect anymore, but only chatted with him about the situation at home.
Xiao Wangshan also changed the topic with Xiao Ruo's words. This granddaughter has a bad impression of the Xiao family, and he knows it very well. So despite wanting her to help, he didn't bring it up. After chatting for a while, the topic of the two turned to the martial arts conference.
Xiao Ruo didn't hide it from him. The martial arts conference has only started for a week, but a lot has already happened, and she still hopes that someone will help her straighten out her thinking. It happened that her grandfather came, so she picked up a few things that she thought were more important and talked to him.
The old man deserves to be the deputy prime minister of a country. Although he couldn't make a clear judgment because of the lack of information at hand, he still roughly analyzed the situation that Xiao Ruo knew. Listening to his grandfather's slow and clear narration, Xiao Ruo's anxiety in his heart was reduced by a few points.
“…… The most important thing for you now is not to get confused and suspicious. If you yourself say that you are strong enough, then there is no need to be afraid. As for those around you, don't let up, maybe someone is waiting for you to relax themselves. And also. Recognize the priorities and the purpose of your visit. Don't just get along with that organization and ignore a lot of obvious things. You don't want to think about it, they have existed for so many years, and they have not been eliminated after many blows, and your idea of wanting to wipe them all out is too simple, and it is not good to be greedy for merit. ”
Leaving a few words of advice, let Xiao Ruo ponder there by himself, and Vice Premier Xiao paced in all directions to find the little guys. Although he is still in the position of head of the family, he doesn't need to worry about those things. As for his own father, he has so many grandchildren. There's no need for this only granddaughter to run errands.
Xiao Wangshan went back after dinner here, the old man was busy with official business, and he was able to take time to come here because he heard the news of his father. Xiao Ruo wanted to ask the Xiao family about the forbidden land again, but the old man kept silent now. She couldn't help it.
"Mom, Brother Jingchen is here, I have invited him to come here tomorrow as a guest, don't say no." and Xiao Ruo sent Xiao Wangshan away, and before returning to the room, Little Alice couldn't wait to ask Xiao Ruo.
"Jing Chen is here? Come on if you want to come here, it seems like he hasn't been to the house for a long time. Alice, do you know what the reason is? Xiao Ruo first agreed to her daughter's small request, and then remembered that she hadn't seen Bai Jingchen for a long time, and couldn't help but feel a little strange. Beautiful boys used to go to the house every few days to play, but this time it seems like a long time has passed.
Little Alice smiled mysteriously at Xiao Ruo, and said proudly: "Secret!" Mom, if I do a great job this time, you can reward me. ”
"Oh? What reward do you want? ”
"I want to ......," little Alice looked at her two brothers, rolled her eyes, and said, "I want to go to the city with my mother, and my brother and brother will go together!" ”
Xiao Ruo's face darkened when she heard it, this girl really dared to mention it!
"No! I don't expect your great achievement, you can stand if you love it. ”
Little Alice, who was rejected all at once, unexpectedly did not continue to entangle, but made eye contact with her brothers, and the little nose snorted: "If you don't go, you won't go." After saying that, he pulled the other two and ran away.
Looking at the backs of the three little guys suspiciously, Xiao Ruo shook his head, always feeling that his daughter's performance was very strange. She felt that something was wrong, but let them follow them to the city, although she was confident that she had a way to take them without being discovered by others, she couldn't agree.
Routinely reading documents at night and studying the drawings of the organ city, Xiao Ruo spent this time very regularly.
"What did Grandpa tell you today? Looks like you're getting a lot easier? This is a routine bedtime chat between the young couple, usually mixed with their own analysis of the current situation.
Xiao Ruo yawned, casually flipped through the pages of the unknown book in his hand, and said lazily: "It's nothing, just help me analyze what has happened in the past few days." The old man has been up and down in the sea for so many years, and he can see it more clearly than us. ”
Li Muyun was a little depressed. People are really incomparable, and it is also a bad start. His grandfather has now become a betrayer, but Xiao Wangshan's status in Xiao Ruo's heart is getting better day by day. Should he say that his relatives are too angry?
"What did grandpa say about great-grandfather?"
"At first, he wanted me to go with him to the Xiao Family Forbidden Land, where my great-grandfather seemed to be in retreat. Although he may be imprisoned by Xiao Kecheng in other places, I think my grandfather probably wanted to go there to find clues when he raised this. It's just that I don't know what happened later, and I never mentioned it again. Xiao Ruo really didn't want to care about the Xiao family's affairs, if it weren't for Yang Bing's appearance that she had a good impression of Xiao Kefeng, she wouldn't have asked.
"Since grandpa didn't mention it, forget it. The Xiao family's grandfather is not in charge of things now, and the rest of the people don't have a particularly good impression of you, and it's easy to be honest if you meddle rashly. In the future, grandpa will talk about it if he needs our help. ”
"Hmm. By the way, don't you think Alice's attitude is strange today? She didn't pester me to go to the Organ City, which is not in line with her character? Thinking of her daughter, Xiao Ruo was a little depressed, she always felt that the little girl was brewing some kind of ghost idea, but she had no way to know, so she couldn't help but be very frustrated.
Li Muyun smiled and said, "Don't worry about this, isn't her purpose to go to the Organ City." As long as we bite it to death and don't let go, she can't help it, right? ”
Xiao Ruo still felt that something was wrong, but she had no clue about her eccentric daughter, so she could only agree with Li Muyun's opinion like a scoundrel, and fell asleep.
The weather was very good the next day, of course, the weather in the secret realm was the same almost every day, but Xiao Ruo's mood was diametrically opposed to the weather outside.
Bai Jingchen really came, but there was a Bai Man behind him. The beautiful boy's illness has been completely cured by Xiao Ruo, and the chaotic true qi in his body has also completely calmed down, and there is no trace of sickness on his face at this time, and he looks very energetic. And Bai Man has hardly left him since he saw Li Muyun's eyes beside Xiao Ruo, which made Li secretly bitter in his heart.
After greeting Bai Jingchen, Xiao Ruo watched Little Alice mysteriously pull people to where she didn't know. She shook her head helplessly, glared at Li Muyun vaguely, and resigned herself to Bai Man to sit down.
"Brother Jingchen, why are you here now? Have you been busy with retreat lately? I see you're making a lot of progress now. Little Alice's big eyes flashed and stared at Bai Jingchen, ignoring his sudden pale face after hearing the second half of his words, and then complained, "It's not fun to practice, don't you like me anymore?" None of them are with me. ”
The little girl's accusation made Bai Jingchen breathe a sigh of relief, he looked at little Alice with complicated eyes, but looked away after meeting those big clear eyes.
"How could I forget Alice? Brother Jing Chen, okay to apologize to you? I have a very strict father at home, and Brother Jingchen finally passed his test. You see, as soon as I get here today, I'm here to meet lovely Alice. Bai Jingchen squeezed out a reluctant smile and said weakly.
"Brother Jingchen, you're lying!" Little Alice's sudden loud voice made the beautiful boy startled, and his eyes widened, but after hearing her next words, he relaxed again, "I asked Aunt Bai Man, and she clearly said that your father is very kind!" ”
Bai Jingchen laughed dryly twice, and defended again: "Brother Jingchen is a boy." You see, are your mom and dad stricter with Arthur and Augustine? Brother Jingchen's father is the same. ”
"That's right." Little Alice suddenly muttered, her tone became cheerful again, and she took Bai Jingchen to the garden for a walk.
Feeling that he seemed to have escaped some kind of punishment, Bai Jingchen's heart suddenly became chaotic, and he felt that it seemed to be a mistake for him to be persuaded by his sister to come here. Follow little Alice around in the garden, talk and laugh with her, and seem to be very happy, but whenever he looks at the little girl's big watery eyes, he always feels the guilt in his heart coming out in waves. As if some kind of sin of him was reflected in those clear eyes, Bai Jingchen always unconsciously started at this time, but his heart was constantly sinking. (To be continued.)
