Chapter 8: Asking Your Mind (15)
Xiu Ran Fengdi's sudden "hum" laughter broke the tense silence between the two. His previously tense body relaxed, and he slumped backwards in his chair.
"I know there are some ridiculous rumors coming out of the taverns in the streets, but I never dreamed of hearing such things from you! The gods are above, if I really have a son, even if his mother is just a dishwasher, I will take him to my side and raise him personally! If I really have a son, how can I tolerate a nephew who has no right to inherit the surname Feng Di squatting at his feet every day waiting for me to climb to the head of the courtyard when I die? You must have seen him when you signed the sign in the lobby on the ground floor, the stupid and fat one. He finally couldn't help laughing, "Let me tell you, his evaluation of you turned out to be 'pitiful'!" Hahahaha! โ
Shuran laughed so hard that he coughed intermittently. By the time he had calmed down and spoken again, the tension between the two was gone.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, and I wanted to take this opportunity to explain the past clearly, but it still doesn't work. Talking about the past depends on the perspective of looking at the past, and unfortunately you and I still can't have the same perspective for the time being, so let's change the topic and talk about the present. He straightened his waist, smiled at Poria Cocos, and said in a gossipy tone: "Ajia, that kid, it's really impressive!" is worthy of being Long Ran's daughter! Her skills when she climbed the wings of the Golden Crow just now were not inferior even compared to Long Ran back then! โ
"What the hell do you mean!"
Finally got to the point, Poria secretly warned herself that she must be calm!
Xiu Ran didn't answer, and raised one eyebrow to look at Poria Cocos, which was an expression waiting for the other party to continue.
"A month ago, you wrote to ask Akari to speak at the opening ceremony as a representative of the new students, is that the idea? Want my daughter to start a trial? โ
"That's really what I'm proposing, because I think Hades Hikari Sharokari deserves this honor. But there is such a thing ......as a trial," Xiu Ran muttered.
He was going to ask - do you think I have that much influence over your daughter? But Poria must have thought he had, and as one of his best students of the past, Poria knew that he could do it if he wanted to.
He also wanted to ask - what do you think I can get out of it? But it's even worse because there's so much he can get out of it. The reopening of trials is an accomplishment in itself. If he goes with the flow, the outside world will think that he and Lord Zhuan are disgusted and will work together to prepare for battle. If he bucks the trend, he can justifiably let the Hades and Light families lose their last heirs. But that's where he finds it strange. How could Light Poria, as well as her close friend of the Blood Alliance, give him such a great benefit?
"I definitely didn't interfere in the trial." He decided to tell the truth.
"I've read A'Hunt's speech, and I used the article "Jin Wu Qiguang", and you took the stage before her, and you used the same one." Poria asked, staring into Xiu Ran's eyes. "Is this also a coincidence that the gods have descended on you alone?"
Poria's words were like lightning splitting the night sky to illuminate the darkness, and Xiu Dye suddenly understood everything!
The content of the speeches that coincided by chance, the cramped and failed speech of Sha Luo Hunt on stage, and the start of the trial after the sudden attack on someone, these things were clearly connected according to the cause and effect in front of his eyes! It's not some incomprehensible conspiracy, it's just a temporary whimsical whims of a young and vigorous girl!
Is it really grandfather's blessing? Is it really the grace of the gods?
The sudden realization distracted Xiu Ran, and a hint of uncontrollable surprise swept over his thin face, and Poria caught it.
Now is the time!
"I'm going to take Akari away!" As soon as Poria's voice fell, she turned around and left.
"Stop!" Xiu Ran stood up.
"It's not time yet, don't look back yet!" Poria admonished herself. She pretended to be deaf to Xiu Ran's words and strode towards the door.
"Please take into account your identity and surname, Lord Tsunadi!" Xiu Ran shouted, slapping the table hard with both hands. The stack of papers that had just fallen on the side of the sloping table but did not fall did not hold on this time, and fell to the ground with a flutter.
Poria's footsteps stopped.
Xiu Dye bypassed the desk and the scattered items on the table, and walked a few quick steps to Poria's side.
"Poria! Sha Luo Hunt signed up for the exam by himself, and after passing the layers of selection, he entered the Golden Crow. This process she went through is a tradition, a law, and the foundation of Kinwuin in Goto for hundreds of years! As a unique place above the land of the gods and under the gods, the Golden Crowin Temple is not a place where anyone can come and go as they want! Sha Luo Hunt is not only your daughter now, but also a trial student who has started the trial in public in Jinwu Temple! Take her away without my permission and without giving an account to everyone, aren't you afraid that the world will accuse you of abusing your power and doing whatever you want?! โ
Poria turned around and slowly took off her hood in front of Xiu Dye.
Although Pan Luo had mentioned in front of him just now that Poria's black hair had turned white, seeing her sideburns and hairline almost completely frost-dyed still made Xiu Ran's heart sink. Xiu Ran can still remember more than ten years ago, as a new student of the new academy, Poria cocos followed her mother to Jinwu Yuan to report, at that time, Poria cocos, blinking a pair of arc round apricot eyes, tilting her head to peek at others, revealing the delicate and beautiful appearance of the girl is still vivid. But now, the contours of those eyes seemed to collapse at any moment because they carried too much sadness.
Looking at Xiu Dye, and as if looking farther into the distance, Poria muttered: "The accusations of the world? Am I afraid? โ
She seemed to be asking herself, but Xiuran knew that she was not afraid of anything for the sake of her only daughter.
Is this the only way to end this matter?
It was as if he had seen the news of the opening of the trial spread rapidly in various places such as markets, shopping streets, bars, alleys, ports, and sea boats as the spectators walked in the footsteps of the spectators, and when the news was happily flying over the sea of glory, it was suddenly plunged into the sea by a new changeโthe first time that the Golden Crowin Temple was forced to suspend the trial. Officials, temple heads, wives, ladies, merchants, boatmen, fishermen, sailors, cooks, waitresses, and all those who were waiting for news of the trial spawn group turned to talk about the incompetence of the head of the Kinwuin Temple, the decline of the Kinwuin Temple and the Temple of Wanichi, and the unstoppable power of the temple.
No, I would never allow that to happen at such a time! Repair dyeing thoughts.
