Chapter 37: The Old Truth
After purchasing the papaya from Ling Feng, Que Bing'er headed towards the south of the town.
A few quarters of an hour later, a small but majestic mansion came into view.
A small fortress is more appropriate than a mansion, with tall walls at intervals of soldiers in red iron armor standing upright.
Next to the gate are two towering towers, and in the middle of the towers are two powerful crossbows powered by spirit stones.
I'm afraid that even if a Void Body Realm monk soars into the air, his body will be pierced out of a hole.
In front of the gate, a metal stele stands in front of it, on which the outstanding exploits of the Que clan are recorded.
Passers-by from this place will glance at the contents of the stele with reverence, and in their hearts, Que Mansion is the protector of Shangyang Town.
And Que Xiong is the military god of Shangyang Town, but he has disappeared from the public's field of vision for a long time...
Approaching the gate, Que Bing'er met an old man walking out with four or five people dressed as medicine apprentices.
"Miss. ”
Approaching the gate, the old man stepped forward and smiled at Que Bing'er: "Are you okay?" The old man heard that you had a conflict with the Qian family, and he was very worried. ”
"It's fine. ”
With a faint smile, Que Bing'er replied: "The Qian family can't bear it, just let Old Ghost Li test me." ”
"That's right, Steward He. ”
After a pause, he continued: "What happened to these doctors just now, is my father's condition worse?"
"No, these people were asked by Master Que Gang to come back and diagnose the master, but... Alas. ”
Steward He sighed in disappointment, after all, he had been on duty in the Que Mansion for many years, and Que Xiong was something he had seen since he was a child, and his heart was extremely uncomfortable.
"Second uncle?"
His face changed slightly, and Yan Bing'er asked softly, "When did he come back?"
The woman's unique sixth sense warned her that Que Gang's sudden return was afraid that it was not good.
Different from the brotherhood of ordinary people, after the old man Que passed the family power to Que Xiong, his younger brother Que Gang broke with the family and ran away.
"Just now. ”
As an old man in the Que Mansion, of course Steward He knew about this old story, but he didn't comment much, so he could only smile and say: "I haven't seen him for many years, but Master Que Gang looks a lot calmer." ”
Que Bing'er nodded, did not speak, and was as cold as ice
Maybe the second uncle has repented after the time of time.
"Let's go, Steward He, let me go and meet this unmasked second uncle. ”
Yan Bing'er's face was like frost, and people couldn't tell what she was thinking.
Walking on the bluestone-paved path, as she gradually approached the cultivation room, Que Bing'er suddenly felt a breath that was not weaker than her.
This aura is on par with his father when he was at his peak.
"What my father said is true, the second uncle's martial arts talent is indeed above him..."Que Bing'er frowned slightly, and shook her head helplessly.
Looking up, there were many people standing next to the cultivation room at the end of the trail, and they felt it with their hearts, and the lowest strength was also the seventh level of the strong body realm.
Walking into the recuperation room, Que Bing'er could hear some whispers coming from the inner room.
Gently pushing the door open, the whispering stopped abruptly, and then one after another eyes fell on the girl who walked in.
Que Bing'er's gaze quickly swept over the indoor scene, and beside her father's bed, stood an old man with gray hair, and on his chest, he wore a medal with a moon.
This man turned out to be a doctor!
Behind him, three healers stood respectfully.
Before she could greet the doctor, Que Bing'er stopped her eyes on the middle-aged man sitting on the edge of the bed.
The man is quite imposing, and his appearance is quite similar to his father.
Que Bing'er was slightly stunned, and then stepped forward and smiled at Xiao Yan: "Bing'er has seen the second uncle. ”
"Second uncle?"
As soon as this title entered his ears, Que Gang's eyelids involuntarily trembled slightly, his eyes stared at his niece tightly, and asked softly: "When I left home, you were less than a year old, but now you have transformed into the leader of this Shangyang Town, and the impermanence of the world is really amazing." ”
"The changes in the world are indeed embarrassing, I don't know what the second uncle is doing on this trip?" Que Bing'er sat down and asked softly.
"You should be able to guess that the old man came back this time, of course, to get back what I deserved. Que Gang replied in a loud voice.
Hearing this, Que Bing'er suddenly chuckled in her heart, frowned slightly and asked: "What is what the second uncle said, if it is the position of the mayor of the town, Bing'er is willing to give it up." ”
At this time, she only hoped to calm the anger in her uncle's heart.
"The old man now wants the position of mayor of Narauszi, and I have come to prove one thing. ”
"Proof it?" Que Bing'er asked, looking at Que Gang with a sullen face.
"Yes, your father promised me to give me the post of mayor of the town. ”
"But he cheated and drugged my wine the night before the school showdown, so that I was defeated by him with a single move, and became the laughing stock of everyone in the army. ”
"I left home to practice so that one day I could have a fair duel with him, but I didn't expect to come back and learn that he was suffering from a spiritual disorder, so I invited Dr. Huang to treat him. ”
Que Gang said a lot of words in one breath, as if he was venting his unwillingness to Que Bing'er and the unconscious Que Xiong, or his deceased parents.
"Second uncle. ”
Sitting on the chair, Que Bing'er looked him directly into the eyes and said with a serious face: "Do you know why my father drugged your wine back then?"
"It's just for the position of mayor of the town, my eldest brother has always been very scheming. Glancing at his mouth, Que Gang replied.
Hearing this, Que Bing'er shook her head.
Sure enough, what my father said was right, my second uncle was really a tendon.
"Not true. ”
Que Bing'er said slowly: "After my father promised you, I accidentally learned from my grandfather that the empire ordered all town mayors to lead troops to resist the invasion of demonic beasts. ”
"Soon after you left, my father led his troops to fight, the monster siege was extremely ferocious, he overloaded the aura in his body to pick up a life, and this aura disorder was also related to that battle. ”
After hearing this, Que Gang fell silent.
A moment later, a sentence came out of Que Bing'er's mouth that made him burst into tears.
"Daddy drugged your wine in order to exchange his life for your life. ”
