Chapter Twenty-Seven: Behind Closed Doors
As soon as Uncle Xiao spoke, I immediately knew that he was preparing to understand his future son-in-law from the side.
I have an old and no enmity with Lin You, and besides, Xiao Luqi and Lin You have already lived a shameless life together, and I don't need to make trouble for others, and I have said all the good things to Lin You at the moment.
Uncle Xiao frowned and listened for a while, groaned, and didn't say anything.
Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, Uncle Xiao is old and has a son, and he has been in the northwest all the year round, and he lacks care for Xiao Luqi, so he attaches so much importance to it at this moment.
But I think Xiao Luqi, a girl, doesn't look at Wen Wen quietly, but she has more ideas than ordinary girls.
I think neither Uncle Xiao nor Deputy Director Dai will affect her will.
Therefore, if you can solve this matter satisfactorily, you should try to do it.
After a brief chat with the parents, everyone also got up one after another, Xiao Keming's little sister is called Xiao Kexia, she helped make breakfast, and after we had eaten, Jiang Bao didn't know where to get a Wuling Hongguang van, ready to send us to Maoshan.
This time we went to Maoshan, Old Man Xiao did not come forward, but Uncle Xiao took the lead.
followed by Uncle Xiao and Fifth Brother, as for Xiao Luqi, Jiang Bao, Xiao Kexia and other juniors, except for Jiang Bao who drove us, the rest stayed at home.
This time I went to Maoshan and it might not be too peaceful.
Therefore, if there are more people, it will be a burden.
Everyone didn't talk much along the way, in fact, I don't feel that Tao Tao and the Xiao family are not very familiar, but from the mouth of the third uncle, I learned some things about Tao Tao.
It turns out that the matter between her and the miscellaneous Xiaodao is very tortuous, and it can even be made into a book.
Tao Tao is the granddaughter of Tao Dixian, and he is also the most spiritual person among his descendants, Tao Dixian is very fond of him, and at that time Tao Dixian was not an earth immortal, but the real person of Maoshan Sect, and even so, when he was selected as one of the top ten in the world, he was also among them, and he was regarded as the world's top master.
When the miscellaneous hair trail first entered the mountain to learn art, he got along with Tao Tao day and night, and before he knew it, two people of similar age came together.
It stands to reason that Tao Tao is Tao Dixian's granddaughter, and Miscellaneous Xiaodao is Tao Dixian's apprentice, the two of them are different in generation, if the plot continues like this, it is estimated that everyone will have to have a headache for that ethics and morality, and stage a modern version of the plot of Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu.
However, the direction of the story is not like this, and then on the Yellow Mountain, there is a dragon python out, and the miscellaneous hair trail and Tao Tao who followed him privately went to the Yellow Mountain.
Tao Tao died on the spot in the battle of the Huangshan Dragon Python, while the miscellaneous hair trail fled in a hurry and survived.
After that, the miscellaneous hair trail was abolished and cultivated, driven out of Maoshan Mountain, and it was not until a long time later that it returned to the mountain gate again.
And isn't that Miss Tao Tao dead, how can she come back to life?
The third uncle didn't know either, he only knew that the Maoshan Sect had its own means.
After listening to the cause and effect of the incident, I couldn't help but sigh, no wonder I think the relationship between Tao Tao and Miscellaneous Xiaodao is a bit weird, it turns out that there is such a play.
Tao Tao actually came back to life after he died.
It's just that if she dies this time, can she come back alive?
I doubt it.
The Tianwang Town where the Xiao family is located is not far from Maoshan Mountain, and after arriving at the bottom of the mountain, the third uncle explained a few words to Jiang Bao, and then asked him to leave, and then we began to go up the mountain.
The Maoshan Sect is in the vast mountains, and the Taoist temples outside are just scenes that confuse the world.
However, these are nothing to the Jurong Xiao family, everyone seems to be very familiar with the path, so they went all the way through the forest and the mountains, and finally came to the mountain gate hidden in the forest.
The mountain gate is closed, and you can't see anything.
Uncle Xiao walked to the front of the magic circle, looked left and right, and then found a bronze bell nearby.
He struck three times, and after a while, he said: "Jurong Xiao's family, Xiao Yingzhong, Xiao Yingwen, Xiao Yingwu, Dunzhai Miao Gu Lu Yan, Qu Fatsan came to visit......"
Although he has white hair, he has enough qi and blood, and his voice is loud, and with a roar, the entire valley continues to reverberate.
Qu Fatsan was a little unhappy, and muttered in a low voice, saying when did I become a Dunzhai Miao Gu? No, I'm not from the countryside.
I said, aren't you my cousin? Besides, which sect you have, tell me about it, and I'll sing you a promise in the future.
Qu Fatsan touched his chin for a while, and humbly asked me, saying What do you think of my name being the Loose Sect?
I laughed "poof" and said Are you Tianshan Tong's grandmother, Wuyazi, or Li Qiushui's descendant?
Qu Fatsan scratched his head and said What kind of stalk is this?
I rolled my eyes and said that these are all stalks in other people's martial arts novels, and when I turn around, I will take two Jin Lao's books to make up for you, so as not to have a convulsion and make some messy things......
The two of them were fighting, and at this time there was movement in the forest in front of them, and a person stepped forward and said, "It turned out to be the people of the Jurong Xiao family, who are in the lower dendrobium, what do you have to teach?" β
That man was in his thirties, he looked talented, his two long beards added a bit of majesty, and he had a good look.
Uncle Xiao squinted his eyes and looked at the other party, and then said: "I heard that Tao Tingqian, the granddaughter of the former Maoshan Sect Leader, fell off a cliff and died, because she was the wife of my nephew Xiao Keming, so I came here to ask about relevant matters. β
The Taoist Dendrobium said without humility or arrogance: "This is an internal matter of the Maoshan Sect, it is inconvenient to tell you, please go back." β
He turned around to leave, and Uncle Xiao stepped forward and said word by word: "Didn't I say it, Tao Tingqian is the wife of my nephew Xiao Keming!" β
Dendrobium raised his head and said calmly: "I haven't heard of this. β
Uncle Xiao's face turned blue with his words, he looked at the person in front of him coldly, and said, "Then ask someone who knows about this matter to come and talk to me, okay?" β
Dendrobium glanced at us, nodded, and said okay, wait a minute.
With that, he turned and walked away, hiding in the woods.
As soon as he left, the fifth brother couldn't stand it a little, and said with an ugly face: "I think that our Xiao Ming was a real person in charge of Maoshan at the beginning, but now we don't even have the qualifications to enter the mountain gate, it's really ......."
The third uncle was calm and persuaded him: "Once a son of heaven and a courtier, and Xiao Ming left by himself, no one else is to blame for this matter." β
Hearing this, I hurriedly said, "It's all my fault, if it weren't for me, Brother Xiao might not have left." β
The third uncle sighed and said to me: "Lu Yan, you don't have to blame yourself, the current Maoshan Sect is no longer the Maoshan Sect of the past, and Xiao Ming's departure is not because of you, but because he is not used to some people and things in this Maoshan Sect, so he will leave, but ......"
For the Maoshan Sect, everyone originally planned to die and never get along, but there was another incident.
Seeing the empty glade, my heart suddenly jumped, and my mind involuntarily remembered that in the cage of Huangquan Road, the old Taoist priest who taught me the Divine Sword Thunder Technique came.
When he first passed on the credit to me, he once asked me for something.
That is, if there is something in the Maoshan Sect in the future, let me see his feelings and help him......
I couldn't help but laugh when I thought about it.
Where does the Maoshan Sect want me to help now, if it doesn't kill me, then it's good.
We waited in the woods, and at first we really thought that the other party was going to pass the message, but after waiting for an hour, the sun became higher and gradually set to the west, and everyone realized that we had probably been tricked.
That guy called Dendrobium may not have been passed on at all.
People just left us hanging here.
Thinking of this possibility, none of the people present had a good-looking face.
As the fifth brother just said, in the past, the real person in charge of the Maoshan Sect was Xiao Keming, but now people go to tea and cool, which is too much.
Didn't that Dendrobium know that their Gong Elder was also surnamed Xiao?
Uncle Xiao and Uncle Xiao were quite patient and gentlemanly, waiting silently, and I was a junior, so it was not my turn to speak, so they also remained silent.
Qu Fatsan simply ran to sleep in the shade of the tree.
The fifth brother was still a little bloody in the end, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, and said again: "Big brother, why don't you shout again?" β
Uncle Xiao raised his eyelids, glanced at him, and then said, "Every time there is a big event, you need to be calm, don't mess up." β
He was much older than the fifth brother, just like his father, and the fifth brother seemed to be a little afraid of him, and when he heard this answer, he didn't say anything more, but kept his mouth shut.
As a result of our patient waiting, in the evening, the sun was setting in the west, and no one came out to greet us.
At this time, someone slowly walked over from a distance.
When we saw each other, the man also saw us, and after recognizing us clearly, the man hurried over, saluted Uncle Xiao, and shouted, "Director Xiao!" β
Uncle Xiao's face was a little ugly, but he still saluted back, and then waved his hand and said, "Don't call me the director, I have already retired - calmly, I heard that you are working in the embassy of the United States now?" β
The person who came smiled and nodded, and said yes, in the United States.
Uncle Xiao said why did he come back suddenly?
Someone came to say that there was something going on at home, my mother was seriously ill, and I came to pick her up and go to Kyoto to see a doctor -- by the way, old leader, what's wrong with you, ready to go to Maoshan Mountain?
Uncle Xiao nodded calmly, and then said: "Yes, my nephew Xiao Keming's fiancΓ©e Tao Tingqian suddenly fell off a cliff and died, he is not here, I, as an elder, came to take a look at the situation; We came here at noon, and after reporting to a Taoist named Dendrobium, we have been waiting until now, and no one has come out to pay attention to us......
The man's face froze suddenly, and after a while, he put his hands in his hands, bowed to the ground, and said to us, "I'm sorry, I'll take you in." β
