Chapter 20: An Outbreak in Silence
Coming to the door of the Li people, Li Wuwu looked at this heavy gate, and a strong sense of belonging arose.
"Big, big... Are you the eldest lady? ”
When the guard at the door saw Li Wuwu, his face was confused, and he thought to himself, did he hit a ghost in broad daylight?
Li Wuwu's disappearance, no one in the Li nationality knows about it, no one knows about it. Some people are snickering in their hearts, after all, Li Wuwu's reputation is too big, and it is the notorious kind.
However, this guard is also a thief, and he doesn't talk much about Li Wuwu on weekdays, but now when he sees me, he is speechless.
"Hmm", Li Wuwu glanced at the guard, nodded casually, and walked in.
The guard froze in place, and he suddenly realized that Li Wuwu was not like the mute who would never speak, and she had a cold aura on her body, which would not make people feel that they could not get close.
This made the guard's heart suddenly feel a little apologetic, and he thought to himself, how could such a woman be the person they knew. Who is behind the rumors?
According to her memory, Li Wuwu walked in all the way, and some people on the way looked surprised when they saw her.
Li Wuwu didn't care, she walked directly to Li Zhan's courtyard, and as soon as she reached the door, a surprised voice stopped her.
"Girl!"
Li Wuwu turned around, the man in front of him was still as elegant as ever, but his face was slightly tired, and he looked like he had been tired for many days, Li Wuwu said distressedly: "Big brother, what's wrong with you?" Why are you so tired? ”
"It's really you, girl, you're back."
Li Chen couldn't take care of himself, he approached a little excitedly, reached out and touched her head, and said happily: "Really! It's true! ”
Li Wuwu's heart warmed, hugged Li Chen's arm, and said apologetically: "Big brother, I'm sorry, I'm late." ”
But isn't it, since she was taken away by Jing Liyuan in the black market, she hasn't been home for half a month.
In less than a few months, she integrated into this world and experienced the family affection and excitement that she had never had in her previous life.
Li Chen hurriedly asked, "Where have you been these days?" Why can't we all find you? ”
Li Wuwu thought about it, omitted some things, and talked to Li Chen about the cause and effect.
Li Chen felt a lot of feelings, and said: "Girl, it's good to come back, I've worked hard for you, take a good rest recently, pay attention to your body." ”
Li Wuwu said lightly: "Don't worry, big brother, I'm fine." By the way, how are you guys? Are the injuries on your body better? Where did the second brother go? And grandpa, grandpa, is his body okay? ”
Li Wuwu asked three or four questions in one breath, Li Chen smiled when he listened, and replied patiently: "Don't worry, girl, our injuries have long been healed, but Ah Luo is in retreat, and his mood is a little depressed. As for, Grandpa, he ......"
Speaking of this, Li Chen glanced at Li Wuwu, thought of his grandfather's choice, and said in his heart: It's really a creation that makes people.
Li Wuwu looked at Li Chen's somewhat indescribable expression, chuckled, and hurriedly asked, "Big brother, tell me quickly, what's wrong with grandpa?" ”
Li Chen said slowly: "Grandpa, he is missing. ”
Li Wuwu's body shook and exclaimed, "How come? Big brother, why did grandpa disappear? ”
Li Chen hesitated for a moment, but still said: "Grandpa knows that you have been taken away, and he has searched for your whereabouts in many ways, but you seem to have evaporated in the world, without any clues. Until a few days ago, my grandfather and I were in the study, and we received a mysterious message, which said to save people, the northwest jungle, and grandpa should go alone. I was trying to stop my grandfather, but he knocked me out. ”
"Grandpa, how is he ...... Grandpa..."
Li Wuwu's face was a little pale, and his heart seemed to be shouting non-stop, and even his eyes were a little lost.
Li Chen immediately reassured: "Girl, don't think about it, grandpa, we will definitely find it back." ”
Thinking that the girl is only 13 years old now, it really hurts her to let her admit so much.
Li Wuwu's eyes were a little red, he lowered his head, but he didn't speak, and the atmosphere suddenly became cold.
Li Chen watched from the sidelines, a little unbearable. I don't think about how I can get her back.
Suddenly, Li Wuwu turned around and walked out in despair, Ren Lichen shouted, but he didn't answer.
Li Chen also had a headache, but he didn't chase him out, maybe give her a little time, and let her think it out for herself.
However, now he originally wanted to go to Luoxia Pavilion, but he turned around and went to the place where Li Luo retreated.
When the girl came back, the happiest thing should be Li Luo, tell him the news first, and then go to see the progress on her father's side.
Out of Li Zhan's courtyard, Li Wuwu didn't know how to walk back to his residence.
It was still such a familiar environment, cleaned up inside and out, and no dust had fallen, Li Wuwu suddenly thought that this must be grandpa's arrangement.
The memory seems to have returned to the time when she first came to another world, warm and moving...... The suppressed emotions in her heart were about to erupt, but she suppressed her head again.
As soon as her eyes were cold, Li Wuwu went straight to the library, and after figuring out some things, she would no longer be afraid.
At this time, Li Chen came to the place where Li Luo retreated, the fire molten cave.
This is the area where the fire attribute of the Li clan is the strongest, and it is also a place where people who have cultivated to reach the Xuanshi level can come.
As soon as his heart moved, before Li Chen reached the entrance of the cave, the aura of Li Luo's mysterious power in the cave emanated.
Li Chen could feel that his aura was a little more condensed than before, and he was about to reach the first level of Xuanshi, if he wanted to break through, he should only have one chance to break through.
At this moment, Li Luo opened his eyes, a sharp edge slashed, and his body rushed out of the cave directly and fought with Li Chen.
"Fire Dance and Flare"
"Huo"
The two of them went through one move at a time, playing each other's familiar and unfamiliar moves.
After about ten moves, Li Luo was defeated, Li Chen tidied up his clothes and smiled warmly.
Li Luo snorted, a little unconvinced: "Brother, you are stronger than before, but I will definitely catch up with you." ”
Although, Li Luo has lost to Li Chen for the first time, but fortunately, he is young, a full three years younger than his eldest brother, so he will catch up sooner or later, and he doesn't have to care too much about the results in the early stage.
Li Chen said angrily: "You still know that I am your brother, who was as stubborn as a cow before, and even me and my grandfather didn't see me." ”
Li Luo touched his head embarrassedly and said, "I'm not trying to get stronger, so I can find the girl as soon as possible." But, then again, big brother, why did you come to me again today? Could it be that the girl of the Bai family is scared of you? ”
Speaking of this, Li Luo smiled without conscience, he had seen the power of the girl of the Bai family. Even if he is a calm big brother, in front of that girl, he has to break through.
Li Chen said angrily: "Stinky boy, don't open which pot to mention?" Originally, I said that I would tell you good news, but now it seems that there is no need for this, I am leaving, you can go on retreat. ”
Li Luo took a few steps forward, stopped Li Chen and shouted: "Don't, brother, brother, I'm wrong, is there news from that girl?" ”
Li Chen smiled, but he didn't say it, he clearly wanted to avenge the "revenge" just now.
Li Luo choked suddenly, looked at Li Chen with pitiful eyes, and said, "Brother, say it." ”
Li Chen's body trembled, "Okay, okay, don't look at me with such sensual eyes." I'll tell you, the girl you've been thinking about has come back, but she's not doing very well now, you go and see her, and I'm going to find my father. ”
Li Luo was stunned, "Brother, what's wrong with the girl?" Why do you feel bad? ”
Li Chen looked at him, thinking about whether to tell him about it, but after thinking about it, he had the right to know, so he condensed the Xuan power into a sound and passed it into Li Luo's ears.
"Grandpa disappeared in order to find the girl before, I am going to go to the forbidden place and take the Li Huo Order to save grandpa. I'm afraid that the matter will be revealed, so I'll tell the girl about it, so you must take care of the girl now, and don't let her have an accident again. ”
Li Luo was stunned, how could it be? Grandpa, that girl......
Looking at Li Chen's serious expression, Li Luo immediately said: "Brother, don't worry, I will take good care of the girl, and when you go to the forbidden land, don't forget to take me." ”
After speaking, Li Luo didn't wait for Li Chen to say anything, and ran directly to Li Wuwu's residence.
Li Chen shook his head, stinky boy, he must have done it on purpose, knowing that I wouldn't take him there, so he ran so fast.
Glancing at the direction he left, Li Chen said in his heart: The girl still needs you to take care of...
After that, Li Chen casually glanced at the entrance of the cave and left the place.
In the evening, in the Li Nationality Assembly Hall, Li Fengyuan held a clan meeting instead of Li Zhan.
Li Fengyuan looked at the people below, the old faction on the left, the descendant faction on the right, and more than ten people sat in the forest.
Li Fengyuan coughed, and said: "Since the patriarch has something to do, today, I will preside over this clan meeting, for matters related to entering the forbidden land in a few days." ”
The crowd below, looking at each other.
Great Elder Li Yang said: "I don't know what the patriarch has to do, but he is absent from such an important clan meeting, and those who don't know think that the patriarch doesn't pay attention to the forbidden land." ”
Li Fengyuan was stunned, and he already knew that he was not a peaceful person, so he thought of a countermeasure in advance.
Li Fengyuan said: "What the Great Elder said is wrong, the patriarch must have something important to do, otherwise he wouldn't let me preside over it." If the Great Elder still has any doubts, when the Patriarch returns, you can tell him in person. ”
Li Yang's face became cold, and he said disdainfully: "Then let's start, I want to see how you arrange." ”
Li Fengyuan didn't care what his attitude was, after all, he was not a person all the way, so he immediately said: "The forbidden land of the Li clan is not trivial, this time, I will follow the original intention of the patriarch and will re-select the candidates to enter the forbidden land." The strength is required to be no lower than the high level of Xuanshi, and the quota is limited to five people. ”
"What?"
The pot exploded below, how did this make?
The Great Elder frowned, pondering the deep meaning of his words.
The sixth elder Li Henian said: "This matter is not appropriate, as for the matter of candidates, I think it is okay to use the original few people." ”
Li Fengyuan said: "The patriarch knows that you will have opinions, but his old man told me that the Li clan has experienced what happened last time, and it is necessary to let the disciples in the middle and upper strength of the clan go through it." ”
These words, naturally, were not told by Li Zhan, and Li Fengyuan made them up by himself, in order to save Li Zhan, Li Fengyuan also let it go.
Of course, this is not nonsense, but he specially put it forward according to the recent situation of the Li people. Now, take this opportunity to bring it up, and when Li Zhan returns, it will not be too late for him to explain.
Li Yang stared and asked, "I don't know Brother Fengyuan, which five people are you going to let into the forbidden land?" ”
Li Fengyuan picked up the bamboo slip that had been prepared on the table and read: "Li Chen, Li Chuan, Li Moran, Li Yan'er, Li Ming, these five people are selected by the patriarch, I don't know if you have any doubts?" If not, this will be the end of the clan meeting. ”
"I have."
Outside the door, a woman's crisp voice resounded in the council hall.
Li Wuwu walked in in a white dress with a cold face.
She flipped through the secret books of the Library, and only then did she know what kind of place the Northwest Jungle was, heh, Li Huo Ling, a good token.
She wanted to see what the people behind this were going to do with her?
