Chapter 433: Hibernation
When he saw this titular brother again, he had already become what he was now, and he could no longer see his previous down-and-out appearance in appearance, at least he had grown into the appearance of a handsome son, but his personality was still the same as before, cold and indifferent, or even worse. Every time I come into contact with him, I feel uncomfortable, and after that incident, Xiao Wu feels guilty every time he sees him, and wants to apologize to him, but after all, so many years have passed, and the dusty past is dusty, and it can't be easily touched, and if it is not done well, it will be choked, so Xiao Wu has never been able to find a chance to talk to him about this matter, so he simply put it on hold, thinking about finding a good opportunity to make up for this brother, because he is now capable of making up for him.
That person is called Jairing, he was alone when he came back, his mother had died many years ago, and everyone in the clan knew about it, but because of the relationship between him and the current patriarch is also Xiao Wu, coupled with the previous competition for the position of the patriarch, the people in the clan did not dare to express too much attitude towards his arrival.
Xiao Wu is because of the incident that happened, he didn't dare to ask him too much about how he has lived alone outside in the past few years, if he has a good life, then it will be fine, but if he has suffered a lot, and he is very likely to have suffered, then Xiao Wu's heart will definitely not be good. So from the moment he stepped into the clan, Xiao Wu directly ordered his subordinates to sort out a quiet and comfortable place for him, he had to prepare everything for him, and at the same time let people spread the word that the patriarch's brother had returned to the clan, and asked the people in the clan to treat him politely, although he did not go to see him, but this already meant that he accepted this brother.
Since a person returned to the clan, he was indifferent to everything that happened around him, and when he first came back, he didn't hear what was going on in the clan, and Xiao Wu's preferential treatment of him came, and he was not too surprised, as if everything was taken for granted, he lived in the residence built for him by Xiao Wu under the leadership of Xiao Wu's guards, and since then he has lived in a simple place, unless it is a necessary situation, he rarely walks out of this courtyard, even if he occasionally walks out of the house to breathe the wind, he also looks indifferent, People dare not get close.
Because of his special identity and his character, slowly, the people of the clan also forgot about him, and they would not easily think of him, and with his simple personality in the past three years, the doubts of the people of the clan about whether he really came back to usurp the throne at the beginning gradually dissipated, until they mentioned their previous concerns, the patriarch would still be amused by his previous worries, where is this person who will usurp the throne, this is just a rice bucket that will only eat and drink for nothing, It's just that this rice bucket is slightly better looking.
But when the people in the clan relaxed their vigilance, they didn't notice that under the seemingly unintentional lookout of the wind, he had quietly figured out the terrain of the entire clan, and he didn't see that after he came back from a walk on that slightly higher steep slope, there would be a small note in his palm, and no one noticed that under his cold and indifferent gaze, there would always be a trace of resentment from time to time, and between the flickering eyes, it was like there was a firefly in it, although it was weak, but under the prevailing wind, it could burn the plains, And has the power to destroy everything.
Three months ago, in the dead of night, Jaira sat alone in the courtyard, although it was very delicate and comfortable, but the location was very partial, Jairix looked up at the full moon overhead, and then looked at the surrounding yard, suddenly squinted his eyes and sneered: "In the name of building such a courtyard for my good, it is nothing more than to find a place to put me under house arrest, am I really a fool?" Fortunately, I didn't relent. ”
He looked proudly at the candlestick placed in front of him, slightly curled the corners of his mouth, with a hint of cunning, and said to himself: "But this is good, it is convenient for me to act, and it is impossible for those fools to understand what I will do." After saying that, his expression darkened again, as if he felt a little bored, he frowned childishly, and then raised his slender and white, bony fingers, and impatiently knocked on the outer wall of the candlestick, and the candlestick actually emitted a very faint red light under his knocking, under the light of the faint moonlight. Although the red light was faint, the frequency of the flickering was very violent, and then the red light slowly spread along the candlestick, and a small human figure appeared in the red light.
When the red light finally dissipated, under the illumination of the moonlight, it could be seen that out of the candlestick was a small person, who looked no more than 6.7 years old, with a childish look and a smile on his face, he really looked like a cute child, but his eyes betrayed him.
Seeing the little demon of the candlestick appear, he looked at him playfully, and asked in a smiling voice: "Green light, why do you change your appearance every time you appear, one moment is a man, another time is a beauty, and now it's a child again, do you know what I asked you to come out?" As he spoke, he covered his face with his slender fingers and stroked it gently, just looking at the little demon green lantern through his fingers. Although the little demon green lantern couldn't see his expression clearly, he could also hear his tone clearly, if his tone was still a little playful at the beginning, then the tone later was completely serious, even with a solemn atmosphere. Qing Lantern knew his habits, and knew that if he provoked him, the consequences would not be something he could bear.
His knees were weak, and he immediately knelt down in recognition of the current affairs, took two steps on his knees, hugged Jairing's legs, looked up at him, and immediately explained: "Sect Master, the little demon doesn't dare to fool the sect master, it's just that the sect master has laid out a task tonight, and the little demon deliberately appears in this image, which can better confuse the enemy and facilitate the success, I hope the sect master can forgive me." As soon as his words came out, he looked at Jianxing with blank eyes, wondering what his reaction was, and seeing Jianxing looking at him expressionlessly, his heart sank, and he didn't know what this moody sect master would do to him.
Seeing that this Jaira put his hand on his head, he couldn't help but shrink his neck, but Jairus didn't do anything to him, just touched his head lightly, and then actually smiled at him rarely, and said, "Get up, do a good job of what I gave you." Qing Deng was stunned for a moment, and quickly replied in surprise: "Okay sect master, the little demon must live up to his mission and complete the task well." Jairwood glanced at him faintly and waved his hand: "Go ahead." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a red figure flashed, and with it disappeared the candlestick placed on the table. Jairwood slowly paced back, slowly sat back where he had just been, and then raised his head, looking at the full moon hanging in the night sky, his eyes slowly became dazed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
At the same time, although most of the people had already fallen asleep, there were still a small number of people who had to haunt the mountains. Because of the remote terrain of the clan, in recent years, the situation in the country has been unstable, bandits have increased, and there are harassment by mountain spirits and wild monsters, so the clan has specially set up a rule that some strong men in the clan must be sent to stand guard and guard every night to protect the safety of the clansmen.
The territory of the clan is large, and there are few strong men, so every three or two men are a pair, assigned to various places in the mountains, turning around with lanterns, paying attention to the abnormal situation in the clan, the big head is one of them, but today his companion because the old mother at home is sick, and did not come, the big head relied on his physique and courage, and did not apply for companionship with the leader, as soon as it was dark, he was alone with the lantern, humming a little tune, and he set off, and after a while, he had already visited the area he was responsible for. Seeing that there was nothing abnormal, the day was about to enter the second half of the night, and the big head couldn't help yawning, and the sleepiness slowly came up.
He hesitated, looked around, and saw that there was nothing abnormal, so he put his mind at ease, hung the lantern on the tree on the side, took off his coat, and spread it on the ground, which was a small bed, he lay down satisfied, decided to take a good nap, sighed comfortably, and the man who was five big and three thick immediately snored happily.
A loud snoring sound was transmitted from the night sky, covering a squirming sound, a small figure slowly walked to the sleeping man's side, the moonlight stretched his figure, he slowly squatted in the man's voice, slowly stretched out his hands, and moved towards the man's neck.
Just when he was about to touch the man, the lantern hanging on the tree suddenly fell to the ground, making a "poof" sound, although the man was tired, but the vigilance of the profession made him sober up in an instant, he sat up violently, rubbed his eyes vigorously, looked around, and said in a loud voice: "What person?" Get the hell out of here. ”
But he didn't expect to see that it was a soft and weak, watery child, looking at the child with a timid face, pitiful look, immediately relaxed his vigilance, he stretched out a thick slap, carefully poked the little cutie who was squatting in front of him and looked up at him, and asked in a soft tone: "Little brother, why did you come here, your family?" Aren't you lost? ”
The cutie looked at him and nodded innocently. The big head looked at the cute appearance of this little child, and couldn't help his sympathy, he picked up the child, held it in his arms with one hand, and said heartily: "Little brother, tell uncle where your home is, and uncle will send you back." ”
