Chapter Thirty-Five: They x Ancient Aliens
Chen Xiaolan silently bent down, carefully carried Qiao Yili on his back, and walked towards Xu Ji Hotel.
She prayed silently that Su Yan and Bai Ye would not have an accident.
From Joyly's account, she found that they had underestimated the forces behind the attack on Su Yan in Baidu, a mysterious organization that had been capturing the Bloodline Powers since at least three months ago.
The little girl behind her is very light and thin, and even when she falls asleep, she habitually shrinks her hands and feet.
Half a year ago, the national Yangcheng city of Lvyao -- was only three or four days away from Wuli County.
Joyley has lived here since she was a child, and their Qiao family is a well-known local scholarly family. As the only daughter of the Qiao family, she has been regarded as a treasure by her parents since she was a child, and she lives a happy life without worrying about food and clothing.
On this day, the wind and the sun were beautiful, and Joy Li enjoyed a leisurely afternoon, sitting under the tree in the courtyard and reading a book.
"Miss, the old lady is back!"
Hearing the shout of the girl Xi'er, she hurriedly put down the scroll in her hand. Because she had been sitting for more than an hour, her steps were slightly unsteady when she stood up at first, and she almost fell, and Joy raised her hand in a panic to hold the tree at her side.
Listening to the sound of "bang", the hundred-year-old tree was pushed crooked, and it fell to the ground with a bang, and the roots of the tree rose from the ground, splashing a little new mud.
The tree fell? Did I do it?
Joyly was frightened, "What to do!" What to do! ”
Qiao's father and Qiao's mother, who heard the sound, saw their daughter standing next to the fallen tree, looking at her palms blankly with a bloodless face. Qiao's mother was so frightened that she rushed over and hugged her tightly, comforting her, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid", and Qiao's father seemed to realize something, and loudly dispersed the people gathered around.
After Qiao Yili calmed down a little, Qiao's father took his wife and daughter all the way to the library in the mansion that was not accessible to outsiders.
Joyly looked at her father with a solemn face, and pulled out a yellowed blue notebook from the depths of the bookshelf. It is the ancestral notebook of the Qiao family, which each generation of masters has to re-copy after careful reading, and this one is a copy of the transcription of Joyley's deceased grandfather. Near the end of the last page of the note, there was a dense text like a mantra.
Qiao's father told her that it was ancient writing from a long time ago. Grandpa Qiao called him to the study on the day he got married, and told him the content of that old saying, which he must never forget.
The content of the text description is unbelievable, but it just enough to explain the reality that Joyley inadvertently toppled the big tree in the courtyard.
In ancient times, there was a group of people who were different from the rest of the world and were regarded as aliens. All of them are extraordinarily gifted, either painless and insensitive, healing amazingly, or they can transform into fierce beasts, strengthen their whole body, or control their minds, or change shapes......
And the ancestors of their Qiao family were born with great strength and were able to split mountains and land, and were known as the Hercules family. With the passage of time, such a gifted bloodline became thinner and thinner from generation to generation, so that not a single person who had inherited the bloodline in the Qiao family had appeared since the records began.
Joey's awakened ability makes Qiao's father mixed, and it is a good thing that his daughter has the ability to protect herself, but this ability is not controlled by her, and it comes and goes. In order to hide his daughter's secret, Qiao's father dismissed most of his subordinates, leaving only a few people who could be trusted.
In the time since, Joyly's quiet life has remained the same, except for destroying the furnishings of the house from time to time, and occasionally changing a few pairs of chopsticks during meals...... With these little things, she felt that she had become more courageous than ever.
Things changed three months later, that night, more than a dozen people in black suddenly appeared at Qiao's house, and Qiao's family was killed overnight, except for her. Joyly had to escape with her erratic punches to repel her enemies, and then went into hiding in constant fear of being hunted.
She used her jewelry as collateral to ask an old gray-haired merchant to take her out of the city, and the merchant had come from the country of Bailian and happened to be returning to China. The old merchant was first for money, and secondly, he was moved by compassion, so he took Joey Li across the border to the White Ripple Country.
When she arrived in the area near Wutong Mountain, after saying goodbye to the merchants, Qiao Yili remembered the distant relative Uncle Qiao that her father had mentioned to her. In order to be safe, she relied on her small stature and pretended to be a beggar, and asked for the way all the way to Wutong Village and found Uncle Qiao.
On Wutong Mountain, she endured Uncle Qiao's various instructions, resigned herself to working for him, and from not being able to do anything well at the beginning to slowly becoming proficient later. Although such a day is hard, it is calm enough for Joyley, who often bursts into tears in the middle of the night when she thinks about her parents who died unexpectedly.
After she almost got used to the life in Wutong Village, Uncle Qiao decided to take her down the mountain on a whim that day, and she thought that after so long, the man in black who was chasing her did not appear, so she agreed. However, when they arrived at the town at the foot of the mountain, the haunting pursuers took advantage of Uncle Qiao's inattention to approach her and threatened her that if they did not obediently stay away from Uncle Qiao, they would kill everyone in Wutong Village.
Not wanting to kill innocent people again because of herself, Qiao Yili had no choice but to choose to leave Uncle Qiao. This time, the black-clothed forces were well prepared, and she knocked over a dozen people and was still caught.
She was put in heavy chains, locked in an iron cage, and traveled from the White Ripple Country to Qinggu Village in the Green Yao Country. Occasionally, he was taken out, and he was also locked up with fierce beasts such as tigers, surrounded by a group of high-ranking people talking and cheering through the iron bar.
She was bruised, she struggled, she slammed her fists at the same innocent beasts, saving another life.
If she died, the Qiao family would have no descendants, so she couldn't die.
"Father, mother, don't worry, I will live!"
At least struggle until she loses all her strength, at least until the day she leaves the cage -
When Chen Xiaolan arrived at the Xu Ji Hotel, the sky was starting to darken, and two bright red lanterns were lit in front of the hotel.
The shop is still not very popular, and the proprietress sits behind the counter shaking a feather fan, doing nothing.
Seeing Chen Xiaolan appear, she raised a kind smile like yesterday, "Are you still staying in the hotel today?" ”
"Well, trouble, two rooms."
One was for her and Joy Li, and the other was reserved for Su Yan and Bai Ye.
Chen Xiaolazy carried Joey Li into the room, she refused the kindness of the proprietress, and patiently changed Joey's clothes and wiped her body alone.
Petite Lori frowned and murmured in her sleep, "Help me." ”
Chen Xiaolazy couldn't help but smooth her eyebrows, "It's okay, let's sleep." ”
Bai Ye was murdered by his biological mother since he was a child, Joyley's parents were murdered and lonely, and Su Yan turned into a werewolf to endure bloodthirsty pain every month......
In this world, the descendants of aliens whose blood was diluted in ancient times actually began to awaken half a year ago. And the organization that has long been aware of their awakening has silently appeared around these people with bloodline abilities to observe, and then capture.
