Xiao family, deep courtyard

After Xiao Lin returned to Xiao's house, he arranged Luo Qianyu in his own mansion and did not allow him to walk around.

And Xiao Lin came to the deep courtyard under the order of the old man of the Xiao family.

In the deep courtyard, Old Man Xiao sat on a black ancient chair deeply, and Xiao Sheng was still sitting on the left side of Old Man Xiao in a wheelchair.

There was no one around, as if everything seemed so peaceful and quiet.

"Grandpa, second uncle. For the two people in front of him, Xiao Lin was extremely respectful, and said with his fists clenched.

Looking at Xiao Lin's unharmed body and listening to his greetings, Old Man Xiao's blackboard face slowly softened a little: "Stinky boy, just come back." ”

Looking at Old Man Xiao's pale hair and wrinkled face, Xiao Lin's rock-solid state of mind trembled slightly.

"Lin'er, you have disappeared in the capital for nearly a month, and your grandfather and I have announced that you have been locked up in order not to attract the attention of others. ”

A wisp of doting color flowed on Xiao Sheng's arrogant and cold cheeks, and he whispered to Xiao Lin and admonished.

"Yes, second uncle, Lin Er understands. Xiao Lin nodded in response, and there was a heat flowing through his heart.

In order not to attract the attention of some ill-intentioned people, it is natural to explain the reason why Xiao Lin disappeared for a month. After all, no matter how bad Xiao Lin is, he is still the son of the Xiao family, and it is inevitable that someone will make a fuss about it.

As time passed, the scene inexplicably became heavy and oppressive.

Old Man Xiao and Xiao Sheng stared at Xiao Lin, as if they wanted to peel off Xiao Lin and take a good look.

"Stinky boy, you...... Where did you go, did you gain something?" Old Man Xiao pondered for a while, after all, he couldn't avoid this heavy topic.

Xiao Sheng seemed to be extremely interested in this, and his body in the wheelchair couldn't help but tremble slightly, and his eyes looked directly at Xiao Lin like stars.

Xiao Lin closed his eyes quietly, made a decision in his heart, and then looked up at Old Man Xiao and Xiao Sheng, and pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Grandpa, Second Uncle, I'm sorry, I'm still the same as before, and I'm useless." ”

As he spoke, Xiao Lin slowly lowered his head, as if he was blaming himself for living up to the expectations of his elders.

"Alas......" Hearing this, Old Man Xiao seemed to have thought of this result, just sighed lightly, walked in front of Xiao Lin, patted Xiao Lin's shoulder, and said comfortingly: "It's okay, don't blame yourself, let's slowly figure out a way in the future." ”

Xiao Sheng's expectant gaze slowly dimmed under Xiao Lin's answer, and his fingers that were originally trembling and excited were like rocks that could not be shaken.

Xiao Lin has his own Dao Heaven Secret Technique, if he doesn't expose his cultivation, I'm afraid that no one in the land of a hundred countries will be able to see his depth clearly. Therefore, in the eyes of Old Man Xiao and Xiao Sheng, Xiao Lin is still just an ordinary person who has not cultivated.

They just hoped that Xiao Lin would be able to open up the meridian qi and step into the path of cultivation. It's a pity that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. But even so, they didn't blame Xiao Lin at all, but their faces were a little sad.

Originally, they also hoped that Xiao Lin would find a trace of cultivation in the periphery of the Sword Ruins. If Xiao Lin can condense his vitality, even if the talent is the worst, then they will do everything the Xiao family has to cultivate Xiao Lin into a talent.

However, at this moment, Old Man Xiao and Xiao Sheng couldn't help but show a touch of sadness, feeling that everything was a mirror after all, and it was difficult to change.

From Old Man Xiao to Xiao Lin's deceased father, they are all heroes. But only when it comes to Xiao Lin's body, he can't change the condition of the waste body by all means.

"Could it be...... God, are you going to kill my Xiao family?" Old Man Xiao looked at Qing Cang, his chapped lips slowly whitened, and his heart surged with endless sorrow and desolation.

Xiao Sheng's breath sank slowly, his dim eyes turned back, and then he said in a deep voice to Xiao Lin: "Since you are back, then you should prepare well! In two days, it will be the day when the Liu family and our Xiao family get married." ”

When Xiao Lin heard Xiao Sheng's sudden change of tone, his heart couldn't help but sink a little, and he didn't know how to argue and resist.

Old Man Xiao also seemed to acquiesce to what Xiao Sheng said, looking at Qing Cang with his hands lightly behind his back, and the strands of white and colorless hair looked a little messy under the breeze.

"Stinky boy, don't worry, this matter has been agreed by the king before, and you will not be bullied when you arrive at the Liu family. ......What if" Xiao Sheng seemed to be a little unbearable to turn his eyes, did not stare at Xiao Lin, but looked at the endless void in front of him, and said heavily: "What if...... If someone really cheats you, then ...... How did you fight back before, how will you double the bullying in the future. As long as the old man and I are alive for a day, you will let go and do it, don't be afraid. ”

Xiao Sheng's words gradually became inaudible, but in Xiao Lin's ears and heart, it was like the raging flames burning Qingcang, unable to calm down.

No one knows how much effort Xiao Sheng used to say this, no one can understand the pressure Xiao Sheng is under, and no one knows the sadness in Xiao Sheng's heart.

He is Xiao Lin's second uncle, a generation of fierce generals who won the world in the past, which made countless people fearful.

Originally, he was the pillar of the Xiao family and the pillar of optimus that supported the Xiao family, but he was disabled due to a bloody battle, and he no longer had the heroic appearance of the year.

If he had died on the battlefield in the first battle five years ago, maybe it would have been a better result!

However, he survived, but his legs were no longer felt. Xiao Sheng thought about using death to be freed, but he didn't dare, because the burden on his shoulders was heavy. Even if he is disabled and can no longer fight, the general power and domineering that he has accumulated in the past years still make some young people dare not move.

Therefore, he wants to live, tormented in a wheelchair. Not only because of the Xiao family, but also because of a trace of Chen Fang in my heart.

How Xiao Sheng hopes that Xiao Lin can practice, so that someone on his shoulders will be able to share the burden with him, even if he pays all the costs for this, he must let Xiao Lin grow up.

However, Xiao Lin's answer just now turned his last ray of hope into a cloud and dissipated.

"Let Lin Er enter the Liu family, let him spend his life in peace and worry! If the glory of the Xiao family is dispersed in the future, with the temperament of this stinky boy, I am afraid that it will be rare to achieve good results. In the future, with the deterrence of the Liu family, the stinky boy will be able to live a good life, and I can also explain to my eldest brother. ”

Xiao Sheng slowly closed his eyes, fell into a dead silence like a clear pool, and muttered to himself in his heart.
