Text Preface 12
That's right, the person who suddenly appeared to hold Xiao Si's hand, the person who was called a master by the old man, was Lao Tie, the one who was saved by Xiao Si, and the old Tie who now lives in a deserted village.
Xiao Si never expected it to be him, although he had seen Lao Tie's strength before, he didn't expect that his strength would be so strong that he would be called a master by the old man.
Because of the relationship between Xiao Si, Lao Tie and the old man also sat down.
"Lao Tie, why are you here?" Xiao Si was not curious about Lao Tie's cultivation, after all, Lao Tie should not tell him the answer to this question, but as for why he was here, Xiao Si felt that Lao Tie should be able to say.
"I'm coming out for you. β
"Looking for me?"
Lao Tie nodded and said, "A few days ago, Zhou Shan came to my place and said that you went on an expedition or something, she was very worried about you, and I saw that she seemed to be crying......
Xiao Si lowered his head, Zhou Shan was really worried about himself, but because he left, Lin Yi and Li Er were often absent, so the only person who could talk to was Lao Tie. After all, it was Xiao Si and Zhou Shan who took care of the injured Lao Tie at that time.
"I told her I'd come out and help him find out...... And then I came here and found you with this guy. "Lao Tie refers to the master of Lu Shuangyang.
"He's my brother's master......" Xiao Si said.
"What do you mean?"
Anyway, it was rest time, and Xiao Si roughly told Lao Tie about the incident in the Red Blood Grassland.
Although the story is much brief, the general story has been clearly explained.
Lao Tie is not a fool, he has already understood the general situation of the matter. He thought for a moment and said, "Are you planning to go to the Eastern Regions Road house?"
Xiao Si nodded: "That's right, I promised my brother, I want to go to the Lu family, protect the Lu family as Lu Shuangyang, and protect my family in the Lu family...... This is the path I chose. β
"What about the family in the deserted village?" Lao Tie rarely speaks, but every time he speaks, he can grasp the key.
"Although I don't know when I will see them again after I leave this time, I know that I will definitely meet them again, and I will definitely go back after the Lu family's affairs are dealt with. Xiao Si's tone was very firm.
"Is that so......" Lao Tie pondered for a moment and said, "Then I'll go back and talk to them, and then I'll go to the Eastern Regions to find you." β
"Huh?"
"Your life was saved by you......" Lao Tie didn't explain anything, just this sentence.
"Okay!" Since he said so, it was useless to object, "Wait for me to write a letter, and hand it to Zhou Shan when you go back." β
"Good. β
Xiao Si asked Xiao Er to bring paper and ink and wrote a letter seriously.
"Here you go. Xiao Si folded the written letter and handed it to Lao Tie, "Don't peek, Lao Tie." β
"Don't worry, I won't be so boring. Lao Tie took the letter, stood up and walked out of the inn.
"Who is he?" After making sure that Lao Tie was far away, the old man asked Xiao Si.
"I don't know the origin of a person I saved unintentionally. Xiao Si felt that there was nothing to hide.
"He's a master, a master from the Heavenly Ranks. The old man said seriously.
"I know. Xiao Si smiled and nodded, "But so what." β
The old man nodded, and didn't say anything more, although he didn't know exactly what the origin of this old iron was, but the old man could be sure that he didn't have any ill will towards Xiao Si.
......
After many days of traveling, the old man and Xiaosi came to the Eastern Regions, and they were already close to the most prosperous city in the Eastern Regions, Dongyu City, the city where the Lu family's house was located.
The cities in the Eastern Regions are much more prosperous than those in the Central Regions, after all, the climate and environment in the Eastern Regions are really more suitable for development than those in the Central Regions.
The Eastern Regions is a region with a mild climate and rainfall, the outskirts of the Central Regions are deserts, and the outskirts of the Eastern Regions are dense forests.
Speaking of which, Xiao Si has always lived in the dry and hot Middle Regions before, and it is a little unaccustomed to suddenly coming to the mild and humid Eastern Regions.
"What, are you still used to it in the Eastern Regions?" the old man asked.
"It's okay!" Xiao Si said with a bitter face, "I'm used to the climate, but I'm still a little unaccustomed to this dress!"
After coming to the Eastern Regions, the old man first took Xiao Si to a small town to customize a dark blue dress with better fabric, but Xiao Si was used to wearing those linen clothes in a deserted village before, and now he was a little uncomfortable to wear such clothes.
"It's your brother's favorite style, get used to it. The old man said.
"I know ......" Although he was very dissatisfied, Xiao Si still accepted it.
"In front of you is Eastern Regions City, where the Lu family is located?"
The two of them stood on a high place and saw the prosperous and huge Eastern Regions City from a distance.
"That's right. The old man nodded, "But before you go in, you have to go to a place to do something." β
After speaking, the old man turned his head and walked towards the depths of the woods, Xiao Si was very puzzled, but he still followed the old man in.
The old man took Xiao Si around in the woods, and he didn't know how far he had gone.
Eventually, they stopped in a large clearing.
"Do you remember the way here?" asked the old man.
"It's complicated, but I can remember it. β
"That's good. The old man nodded with satisfaction, "You have to remember that this is where your brother's grave is located." β
"What?"
The old man didn't say much, and took out a small box from his space bracelet.
"What is this?"
"Your brother's urn. β
Xiao Si didn't know when the old man got it.
The old man didn't say much, condensed a ball of mysterious qi in his hand, and gently slapped it on the ground.
"Boom!"
A crater was blasted out, a pit about a meter in diameter.
"Here you go. The old man handed the box to Xiao Si, "You can put it in." β
"Hmm. Xiao Si took the box and gently placed it in the pit.
Just when the old man was about to fill this pit with Xuan Qi......
"Wait a minute. Xiao Si stopped him loudly, "I want to bury it myself." β
"Okay......" the old man nodded.
Xiao Si doesn't have Xuanqi cultivation now, and he doesn't have any tools to use, so if he wants to fill this pit, he can only bury it slowly by hand.
Xiao Si doesn't care about this. Little by little, he pushed the earth into the pit, he was not in a hurry, he was very careful, after all, there was a lot of time.
Seeing Xiao Si fill this pit with his hands so seriously, he regretted a little in his heart, he knew that Xiao Si was going to fill this pit with his hands, so he wouldn't have made this pit so big, and he was also a little distressed when he saw Xiao Si filling this pit so hard.
After the pit was filled, Xiao Si didn't stop, he continued to move the soil to the top of the pit...... After a long time, Xiao Si didn't stop until a mound of earth about a meter high appeared above the pit.
Xiao Si looked at the mound he had made, and said with a smile: "Brother, I came to the Central Domain, the environment in the Central Region is very good, I like it here very much." β
"I've come to the vicinity of Eastern Regions City, I'll see my parents in a while, I haven't seen them before, I'm curious about what they're like!"
"As for your fiancΓ©e...... Xiao Si's expression showed helplessness, "You said that I would naturally do it if I wanted to take good care of her, but you said that I would marry her, which made you a little embarrassed for me, she is also your fiancΓ©e no matter what, sister-in-law, how dare I!"
"Also, you said that I should protect the Lu family, I am a person with the blood of the Lu family, whether you say it or not, I will definitely protect the Lu family's ......"
Xiao Si didn't say anything more, just sat quietly next to the mound.
The old man in the distance just watched quietly, and he didn't bother Xiao Si.
As the sun sets, the sun turns a little red on the originally green woods.
Xiao Si also stood up and said with a smile: "It's getting late, I should go, I'll come to see you next time I'm free, brother." β
Xiao Si walked up to the old man: "I'm sorry for the delay." β
"It's okay, just a little longer. In fact, the old man himself also wants to accompany Lu Shuangyang more.
"Okay, let's go, master. "Little four.
"Master?!" Although he has been with Xiao Si for a long time, Xiao Si has always called him in the second person, and there is no specific name, and the old man who is the "master" of Xiao Si is also surprised and puzzled.
"Have you forgotten, I want to live as Lu Shuangyang, since it is Lu Shuangyang, shouldn't I call you master?" Xiao Si said very calmly.
The old man was stunned and felt that it made sense.
The old man just wanted to say something, and then Xiao Si said: "Forget it, I think it's strange myself." It's okay to call you master when other people are around, and uncle when no one is around?"
"......" The old man was speechless, but he still nodded in approval.
"So, Lu Shuangyang, let's go. I've got a few things to explain along the way. The old man patted Xiao Si on the shoulder...... No, he should be called Lu Shuangyang.
Lu Shuangyang quickly followed, and said as he walked: "I have an idea! That is, I will go back with an injury, and then you will immediately take me into the room to heal my wounds, and close it for a few days and nights, during this time, you can tell me some things." β
"Yes, then you can use the reason for recuperation to review what I said. β
"So ......"
"So, I'm going to beat you up. β
"What?" Lu Shuangyang still didn't react, and was taken aback by the old man's words.
"Look at the punch!"
......
A few minutes later, Lu Shuangyang, who looked covered in injuries, slowly walked towards Dongyu City with the support of the old man.
"You're too ruthless now, aren't you?" Lu Shuangyang said indignantly.
"I haven't used my Xuan Qi anymore, what else do you want to ......?"
"......" Lu Shuangyang was speechless, after all, this was an idea he put forward, even if he cried, he had to finish it.
"Hey, Lu Shuangyang, if I give you another chance to choose now, will you still be involved in this whirlpool of strife?" the old man asked.
"I'm still coming back, that's the path I chose......"
This is the beginning of the road to heaven chosen by Lu Shuangyang!
