Chapter 116: Qin Shuangshuang
"Ah Shilan, are you unwilling? Do you think that this defeat was due to the fact that we did not do enough information to fail?" King Meng sat on the throne, his tone was indifferent, he was actually very satisfied with his son, talented, young and promising, he was a strong contender for the next King Meng, if it wasn't for the big mistake this time, with his help, becoming the next King Meng was almost a certainty.
Ah Shilan looked at his father, his hands were clenched, his bones creaked, and he did not refute, the barbarian king looked at his son and shook his head, after all, he is still a teenager, although he is precocious, but the young man's spirit is still vividly expressed, if he is in front of the other people in power of the barbarian clan today, instead of facing himself, Ah Shilan's current performance will be able to make him never turn over.
"Ah Shilan, you are my son, and when I named you "Ah Shilan", I wanted you to become a brave and fearless hero like a lion and a great king, but unfortunately, you disappointed me. King Meng stood up, his long golden hair draped behind him, and the wide royal robe was worn on his body, showing the king's bearing.
"Da, da. The sound of crisp footsteps sounded in the palace, King Meng walked to Ah Shilan's side step by step, the wide and rough hand patted Ah Shilan's shoulder, Ah Shilan trembled, looked up in surprise, looked at his father, King Meng, who always had an indifferent posture, did not show the same loving smile as he did now even when he was young, a ruthless King Meng should not be this posture.
King Meng looked at A Shilan, his expression was still serious, but he showed a trace of loving feelings, with a big hand, he lifted A Shilan up and stood in front of him, compared to the tall and mighty body of King Meng, A Shilan's body that has not yet grown up is still very weak, King Meng looked down at his son, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, face like a knife, so young already has a trace of a king's bearing, he is very satisfied.
"Ashilan, failure is not terrible, even for my father, I have failed, but I still became the king of Meng, among the many genius heroes, only I went to the end, and the others either became the dry bones under my feet, or they were conquered by me like Balth and became my subordinates, what do you think is the reason?"
King Meng's heavy voice sounded again, no longer claiming to be a king, but telling Ah Shilan in the tone of his father, Ah Shilan looked at King Meng in shock, such a father was also the first time he had seen it, and he was a little overwhelmed for a while, King Meng smiled faintly, and the hand that slapped Ah Shilan's body slowly put down.
"Ah Shilan, you are my son, I have come to this day on my own without teaching you, I have always been extremely satisfied with you, but your actions today really disappointed me, the king of the barbarian race is never afraid of failure, if he is afraid of failure, when the ancestors were driven to the north by the Emperor of the Suppression of the Wilderness, the barbarians have already perished, and they will not be as evenly matched with the human race as they are today. ”
"The barbarians are not afraid of failure, the big deal is to make a comeback, but the barbarians are afraid of losing the courage to admit their mistakes, although this time the defeat of the deserted city is not your fault, but the defeat is always defeated, a defeated general actually pushed his defeat to the strength of the enemy, and his own preparation was not enough, this is not the temperament that a general should have, let alone what the king of the barbarian should do, Ashilan, do you know the mistake!" King Meng's voice echoed in Ashlan's ears, deafening, and Ashlan remained on her feet in pain, knowing that she must never show her ugliness in front of her father again.
Ah Shilan raised her head and looked at her father, who was staring at her firmly, and the gloom in her eyes had disappeared, "Father, the child knows his mistakes, please punish his father." Ashlan bowed down to King Meng, knowing that his father was reminding him.
"Ah Shilan, you can follow me to cultivate during this time, and when the time is right, the barbarians need you to do something important, remember, this is your last chance, don't waste a piece of hard work for your father. King Meng looked at the resolute A Shilan, nodded with satisfaction, and then said in a deep voice again.
"Yes, father!" said Ashlan, his tone resolute and serious, and he swore that he would not fail again.
In the deserted city, Ye Qing walked alone on the street, after leaving the city wall, Ye Qing had unconsciously walked to the street close to the city lord's mansion, because the surrounding residents did not participate in the war with the barbarians, so they didn't know Ye Qing, except for a few scoundrels who occasionally stared at Ye Qing, no one came to disturb Ye Qing.
"Grandma, don't say it, there are really a lot of people in this deserted city, more than I have seen in the medicine forest for so many years in a short period of time, but it is weaker, I haven't seen a few monks. Xiao Zhu stood on Ye Qing's neck, looking around curiously, along the way, Xiao Zhu kept whispering in Ye Qing's ear, this is interesting, that is good, extremely excited. If it weren't for Ye Qing separating Xiao Sun's voice with anger, Xiao Sun's voice would not have moved indiscriminately along the way, and the people of Zhenhuang City would have discovered it a long time ago.
Ye Qing smiled faintly, in fact, he was not much better than Xiao Zhu, although he had seen the prosperity of Lin Yuecheng, but at that time, he had not carefully observed it because of his cultivation and fear of revealing his identity, and the difference between Zhenhuang City and Lin Yuecheng was very big, due to the prohibition of Zhenhuang City, there were no monks to enter, and the people were all mortal business, and they rarely saw any spiritual objects or the like, which was completely different from Lin Yuecheng, but because of this, Zhenhuang City had a trace of fireworks compared to Lin Yuecheng, which made Ye Qing like it very much.
"Miss, Miss, slow down, now that the war has just ended, there is a lot of chaos in the city, you have to be careful!" Suddenly, a little girl in red ran towards where Ye Qing was, and an old man followed closely behind her, for fear that the little girl would get lost.
Ye Qing looked at the little girl curiously, he found that the people around him were all smiling kindly, and even the middle-aged man who was carrying the stone towards the city wall also gave the little girl a debut and let her play with peace of mind.
"Oops!" The little girl snorted softly, and hit Ye Qing's body headlong, but where did her small body hit Ye Qing, and she fell to the ground all of a sudden, supporting the ground with one hand, and rubbing her nose with the other, the little girl has a noble status, when she plays around the City Lord's Mansion, the people on the street will make way for him, she has always been presumptuous, where has she been bumped into by others, raised her head and looked at Ye Qing with some anger.
Looking at Ye Qing in front of her, the little girl looked at it all at once, the current Ye Qing is still dressed in green clothes, her face is like a peach, her body is like a willow, and her temperament is dusty, she feels close at a glance, the little girl has never seen such a beautiful sister, where can the maid in the house compare to this sister, even her mother is not as beautiful as her.
The little girl was stunned, still sitting on the ground, Ye Qing stepped forward with a smile, he had already guessed the identity of the little girl, speaking of which, he still had a relationship with the little girl.
"Little sister, you're all right, don't run around on the street, it's terrible if you fall and get hurt. Ye Qing's tone was soft, and he helped the little girl up, and the little girl stood up in a daze, and even the idea of wanting to trouble Ye Qing disappeared.
"Miss, miss. The old man behind the little girl finally caught up, looked at Ye Qing who helped the girl up, was stunned, and then seemed to remember something, and said to Ye Qing.
"Fairy Ye is polite, the little old man is the butler of the city lord, this is the daughter of the city lord, I don't know if Fairy Ye is here to find the master? If so, please go back to the house and wait, the lord is discussing important matters with several other city lords just now, and he should come out soon." The old housekeeper's tone was respectful, although he hadn't seen Ye Qing, but Qin Yuanfeng could tell him about Ye Qing after returning home, plus Ye Qing's temperament really couldn't find a second person in Zhenhuang City, so the old housekeeper could easily recognize it.
"Grandpa Li, who is she?" The little girl looked at the old housekeeper curiously, in the end, she asked her housekeeper directly in front of Ye Qing about Ye Qing's origin, Steward Li looked at Ye Qing apologetically, Ye Qing shook his head, signaling that it was okay, and Steward Li arched his hand and said to the little girl.
"Miss, you can't be so rude, this fairy is a great benefactor who saved our deserted city, quickly apologize to the fairy. Steward Li's tone was a little harsh, he really didn't have anything to do with this young lady, but he was already very naughty at the age of six or seven, although Mrs. often taught her, but the lord was always used to her because of the guilt of the young lady in his childhood, and the people of Zhenhuang City would not embarrass her for the sake of the city lord, it can be said that no one is more favored than her in Zhenhuang City, even if Mrs. wants to correct it, there is nothing she can do.
"Sister, I'm sorry!" The little girl on the side looked at Steward Li's stern eyes and realized the dignity of the sister beside her, and hurriedly bent down to apologize, this is her forte, even if she makes a mistake, as long as she admits her mistake quickly, her mother will not blame her.
"What's your name?" Ye Qing smiled, stretched out his hand and touched the little girl's head, and asked with a smile, he naturally didn't care about the little girl's rudeness, and looked at the little girl very dotingly.
"Sister, my name is Qin Shuangshuang. Qin Shuangshuang looked at Ye Qing's doting eyes, and instantly smiled, she knew that she would not be punished today, this is how her father looked at her on weekdays, as long as her father showed this look, even if his mother punished him, he would be taken away by his father.
"Qin Shuangshuang, it's a good name, can you take me to your house? Ye Qing touched Qin Shuangshuang's little head again, with a smile in his eyes, the old housekeeper on the side shook his head, he could see that Ye Qing liked Qin Shuangshuang very much, if the other party was stationed in Zhenhuangcheng in the future, this little girl would have another backer.
He knew Ye Qing's combat power, and there was an extremely terrifying power hidden under this weak appearance, and even those powerful city lords were amazed at him.
"Well, okay, sister, I'll take you home. Qin Shuangshuang nodded, happily pulling Ye Qing, I don't know why, she felt that Ye Qing was very close, and she liked the feeling of staying with Ye Qing very much.
