Chapter 705: Pride
Hundreds of people, young and old, gathered outside the Sword Pavilion, and they were talking, discussing how long Xing Zeyuan would stay when he returned. They all had their own ways of obtaining information, and several people said that they had just returned from the seaside, and there were warships of the world's governments parked there, and Xing Zeyuan had come with the warship, and it was estimated that he would not leave Arbor City until the battleship was repaired.
Some people say, well, stay a few more days, and treat this big hero. What they know is only part of what Xing Zeyuan has experienced about the world's government, but it is enough for them to be proud!
Soon, amid their sincere pleas and uproar, the door of the Sword Pavilion opened, but instead of Xing Noribuchi who they wanted to see, it was Hanashi Ichiro.
Before, Ichiro asked Hoshi Noribuchi.
"Want to meet the folks?"
"I ...... Forget it, I've been a little tired lately. ”
Xing Zeyuan's injury from throwing a spear before was healed, and his recovery power was terrifying, but his heart was too tired. If he could, he just wanted to meet Uncle Ichiro and Aunt Mijing, as well as Hui Xuezi, and then take a nap in the sun in these short afternoons. He yearns for this kind of life too much!
"Everyone!"
When Ichiro appeared, the villagers looked behind him.
"Curator, where's Xiaoxing?"
"That's right, why didn't Xiaoxing come out?"
"Curator, let's meet Xiaoxing, he is our pride. ”
"That's right, Curator, just take a look, quickly, it won't take much time. ”
......
In the midst of gossip, Ichiro spread his hands, and his position in the city made everyone shut up.
"Folks, I can understand your feelings, but he is too tired, he has a task to fight against Gumenji, and the injuries on his body have not healed, so please give him some time to rest, this is the best care for him. Xiaoxing will stay in the city for a few days, maybe you can see him on the street one day. ”
Ichiro said it more tactfully, but everyone understood what he meant. He had mentioned Gumen Division, and everyone could only give up the idea of wanting to see Xing Zeyuan.
"Curator, ...... Does he need anything?"
"Yes, Curator, if Xiaoxing needs anything, he must tell us. ”
Ichiro smiled and nodded, in this arbor city, he is the strongest, and his family is the thickest, and there is nothing he can't solve, so everyone didn't say much.
"Curator, take care of him for us. ”
"Yes, he's our hero. ”
"Everyone, please rest assured, Xiaoxing has always been my child, and I will take good care of him!"
As Ichiro spoke, everyone was ready to disperse, and although it was a busy day, they all silently expressed their concern.
"Help me tell the city lord, don't worry!"
"Good!"
Ichiro smiled and watched everyone leave. When the crowd completely dispersed, the old man who was still standing in place seemed a little abrupt. Ichiro walked up to her, bent down and asked softly:
"Mi Mama, you?"
"Ichiro, you can help me bring something to Xiaoxing. ”
Granny Mi is old, her eyes and ears are not good, and her body bones are not good, and she stands in place as if she has fallen down by touching it. But she lifted the bag from her feet, and she turned it open with her dry palm, revealing plump white rice.
"Ichiro, Xiaoxing, I grew up eating hundreds of meals, my body has been weak since I was a child, and now I am older, I don't understand fighting this and that outside, I don't understand, so I thought, I have to prepare something for him. These rice, they are all good rice that I picked out one by one, and if you cook it for him, even if it is a little bit of the wife's heart. ”
Granny Mi's voice is weak and trembling, and Ichiro, who listens, shows his soft side. No matter who is in such a scene, everyone will be in tears.
"Ichiro, I also grew up watching Xiaoxing, these rice are not valuable, you must accept them. ”
"Okay, Mother Mi, take care of your body, Xiaoxing is going to get married after the war, and you must come to eat his wedding wine. ”
"Ah~ yes? That's great. ”
Granny Mi smiled from ear to ear, and there were no more teeth left in her mouth.
"Mi Mama, I'll ask someone to send you back. ”
As Ichiro spoke, the apprentice standing at the gate of the small courtyard hurriedly came over to help the old man.
"Thank you, Ichiro, I'll go back. ”
"Okay, Mommy. ”
After Granny Mi walked away, Ichiro carried the rice bag back to the open-air training ground in the middle of the Sword Pavilion, Xing Zeyuan sat on the wooden couch to rest, saw Ichiro come back, and asked:
"Uncle Ichiro, do you know that Komonji didn't panic afterwards?"
"The governments of the world did not inform the masses of the strength of the Gumen Division, and everyone felt that this was just a big war, and they did not know that it was a catastrophe. They will notice it after a while, but the world government will deal with it in advance. ”
Ichiro grinned and said:
"Since He Nai joined the world**, I have more and more confidence in them!"
Xing Zeyuan also laughed, this is the so-called love house and Wu.
"What did Hui Xuezi do with Youyou?"
"I don't know, girl. By the way, this is the rice that Granny Mi gave you, you see, she picked it out one by one. ”
"Tomorrow Youyou and I will go to Granny Mi, she is quite lonely, and I will go up the mountain by the way. ”
"Okay, support you. ”
Ichiro sat next to Xing Zeyuan and said:
"Xiaoxing, don't stress too much, you can tell me if you can't figure it out. ”
Although the strength of Gumenji is strong, it is the whole world that will fight against him. Because it involves the whole world, Ichiro is ready to die in battle, either succeed or die. For the sake of his family, he will fight until the last moment. Over the years, his fighting spirit has mostly faded, but he is ready to come to his senses.
"Uncle Ichiro, what do you think of Draculapong, why do you want to rule the world?"
"People have different desires, our ambitions are not small, and it is very troublesome to live quietly and no one dares to provoke them. ”
"But he's more than three hundred years old, and even if he rules the world, he'll have to die sooner or later. ”
"Does he want to become a god with the attention of the star array magic map?"
Ichiro's idea was very novel, which caused Hoshi Noribuchi to ponder.
"Conquer the world and become a god, so ...... Will he be able to control the world forever?"
Xing Zeyuan suddenly woke up.
"This idea is very valid, I have to tell Wangshu in a few days, let him tell King Kui, take care of Beichen Xihe. ”
"Xiaoxing, I heard about you and Beichen Xihe from He Nai, she said that she heard about it from the headquarters, is it true?"
"Well, really!"
Ichiro felt sorry inexpressibly, he didn't expect that Beichen Xihe had been using Xiaoxing. It's really sinister!
"You're getting older and you're going through more and more, but these hard times will pass. ”
"Well, we'll make it, we will. ”
Xing Zeyuan nodded, agreeing with his opinion.
"Xiaoxing, are you hungry?"
Meijing walked slowly, the years left merciless wrinkles on her face, but she also precipitated the charm and gentleness of maturity.
"Aunt Meijing. ”
"Good boy. ”
Meijing touched his head, like when he was a child, his eyes were gentle, like the petals of a cherry blossom in the sky. She sat down beside Ichiro and said to them:
"I prepared purple potato pastry, how about eating egg fried rice tonight? ”
"I went to make chicken soup again and made up for Xing Zeyuan and Youyou. ”
"Then sit down, and I'll go now. ”
"Good work, Aunt Meijing. ”
Even after leaving for so long, the beautiful scenery has not forgotten, Xing Zeyuan likes purple potatoes and egg fried rice the most. That kind of prosaic thing had saved his life, and it was also his first meal in this world.
"It's not hard. ”
Touching Xing Zeyuan's head, Meijing left, Ichiro also got up, and said to David who was not far away:
"Class is out normally!"
"Yes, Teacher!"
"Let's go see Youyou and Hui Yukiko. ”
Ichiro stretched out his hand to Xing Zeyuan, and after pulling the latter up, they walked together on the wooden couch and looked at the potted trees in the yard.
"Xiaoxing, trees always have to face winter, but they also have to welcome spring, you must not fall, do you know what I mean?"
"Understood, Uncle Ichiro, don't worry, I won't have problems halfway. ”
Ichiro nodded, then knocked on the door of a room.
"Hui Xuezi, open the door for Dad. ”
"No, I can't. ”
The voice got closer and closer, and then the door opened, and Hui Yukiko inside smiled playfully.
"Where's Youyou?"
"This and this!"
Youyou raised his hand in the room, as if he wanted Xing Zeyuan to see him.
"What are you doing?"
She seemed to be covering something.
"I didn't do anything. ”
"Oh~ Let's go for a walk, why don't you discuss the matter of cultivation? I'm whispering to Sister Youyou, I'm closed!"
After speaking, Hui Xuezi closed the door, looking a little mysterious.
"This little one. ”
Ichiro shook his head, he knew his daughter better, she must have created some small surprise, but he didn't tell Xing Zeyuan.
"By the way, Uncle Ichiro, is there a certain time limit for the development of the Chain Star God?"
"Time limit?"
"Well, my chain star god has now developed to the fourth chain, and it will be difficult to improve in the future, so I don't think it should be my own problem. Isn't it that every time a chain is developed, there is a slight pause in the practice?"
"No, no, no, it has nothing to do with time! As long as you work hard, you can develop continuously, but for the sake of your body, you have to rest after each development, recuperate, and then develop when you are adapted. ”
"So, it's just that I'm not trying hard enough. ”
"Xiaoxing, you can't be in a hurry in your cultivation, you must remember this! You used to practice just to become stronger, but now you are more or less influenced by Draculapong, so you are a little anxious. ”
Ichiro spoke out about Hoshinobuchi's problem, and it was true. His strength is too weak, and he looks even smaller after fighting Romad Draculapong, so he is in a hurry to become stronger.
Ichiro and Xing Zeyuan are like a father and son, strolling through the sword hall, chatting at the same time, you and I are very comfortable.
In the blink of an eye, the meal started, the five of them sat at the dinner table, Meijing served everyone dinner, Xing Zeyuan poured wine, everything was so peaceful, without the slightest politeness and bluntness.
"Come, try Auntie's handiwork. ”
Youyou went to pick up the bowl handed by Meijing with both hands, and smiled sweetly.
"It's flower wine, come and try it. ”
Ichiro raised his glass, and the five cups collided, splashing a little light. Then they started the dinner, and it wasn't very grand. But in the warm yellow light, it was warm enough and tasty.
Youyou said that Aunt Meijing's cooking was delicious, and the latter said to eat more, but Youyou was afraid of gaining weight, which caused Hui Xuezi to laugh.
"My sister is so thin, it's good to gain weight. ”
"I think so, too. ”
You sneered, and after eating early, he and Hui Xuezi left first, mysteriously.
Ichiro sandwiched a peanut and asked Xing Zeyuan.
"Drink more?"
"Drink, it's okay to get drunk today. ”
"Then drink to your heart's content!"
While they were drinking, Meijing sat on the side, looking at the two men in her life.
Ichiro amazed her years, when they first met, Ichiro, who was not outstanding in appearance, felt that he was not worthy of the eldest lady Tianmei Meijing, so he wanted to refuse the political marriage at that time. But Meijing insisted on agreeing for the sake of the family, in Yamato, there is not much power for women, so she made a bet and gambled for the rest of her life.
Luckily, she won the bet!
Ichiro was very good to her, and for the sake of her and the child, he was willing to give up his position as a general and come to Arbor City. He also put down the knife he had held for decades and took her hand. This man, who was fed fat by the years and the food she cooked, was the biggest gain in her life.
Ichiro also wanted a son for a while, and of course he didn't mean to dislike his daughter. But Meijing's health was not good, so he immediately broke off his thoughts, saying that two were enough, and taking care of his body was the most important thing.
Later, they met Xiaoxing, a well-behaved child who took He Nai's hand and came to the Sword Pavilion. He was dirty, standing in front of the wooden couch at a loss, until Mei Jing carried him into the bathroom. When taking a bath, Xiaoxing was timid and didn't dare to move, but later, he gradually grew up and became the first in the school. Whenever someone asked him whose child he was, he said, "I'm the child of Hanashi Ichiro, the curator of the Hanashi Sword Museum."
He has always been sensible, and now sitting in front of her, talking with a wine glass, he has really become an adult. With a gentle light in her eyes, Meijing swam between Xiaoxing and Ichiro, dragging her cheeks like a young girl, sitting at her boyfriend's wine table, listening to the boys' bloody stories.
