Chapter 490: A Gift Given
Of course, no one will believe me when I say this, but I swear to God, this is definitely my sincere words, Lao Xi happened to walk in, and when he saw us coming, he breathed a long sigh of relief.
"It's good that you're here," said Lao Xi, who walked in slowly.
I put things away, "What's wrong?" Did something happen? ”
"No," Lao Xi blinked in confusion. What could happen?
"Then why do you say that? Do we take it for granted? "I don't understand, Lao Xi's words have a deep meaning.
Lao Xi also reacted, scratching his head embarrassedly, "Oh, it's not last night that we saw the heavy rain over there, I'm afraid that the plane will be delayed." ”
I looked at Lao Xi, wanting to know something else from Lao Xi's face, but Lao Xi smiled vigorously, and I was helpless, "How many disciples are back now?" ”
"Oh, plus me and Senior Brother Dongming, there are five in total," Lao Xi replied, "Everyone is quite happy, but on the other hand, they are also worried. ”
"Worried?" I looked up at Lao Xi, Ling Ge turned around and left quietly, and went back to the house to play games with Lifeng, and dragged Linglong away, Ke Ke was left behind to masturbate for me, leaving Jiang Wan to accompany me.
"yes, worried." Lao Xi Chang sighed, "After all, after hiding for so many years, I finally stabilized and lived in seclusion, and now I suddenly said that I can come back, everyone is happy, but on the one hand, I am also worried about the Daomen, and on the other hand, I am worried about whether you can afford this heavy responsibility." ”
I pinched Ke Ke's little fleshy paw and smiled slightly, "Actually, whether I can take on this heavy responsibility and worry about the problem on the Daomen side is just a problem, together I am worried about whether I can withstand the pressure on the Daomen side, I replied that it is better to tell them that the Yang family's rebuilding is supported by the Daomen's funds, which makes it easier for them to rest assured, smart people will understand some truths from it, and stupid, they like to go where they want." ”
Lao Xi held back for a moment, and suddenly smiled, "You are really a little polite to speak, but you have obtained Daomen funds to support this...... I'm like a rebuttal, but I don't know what to say. ”
"This is a fact," I shrugged, "On the one hand, the Daomen also hope that I can take over the Yin-Yang Family, so they have a relationship with me with both soft and hard, so that they can better control me in the future and control the Onmyoji lineage, on the other hand, they are not worried, worried that I will follow my grandfather's old path, and also worried that I will cooperate with any sect family or something." ”
"Then you ......" Lao Xi didn't know what was going on, but he didn't know how to intervene.
"Since they have smoothed the rope for me, I will follow and go up, the final choice is still in me, although I am now known as the young master of the Yin and Yang family, but as long as I don't admit it, I am not a member of the Daomen." I clenched my fists tightly.
Lao Xi shook his head, I was too whimsical, and the so-called unspoken rules in this are not so simple.
I slowly let go of my fist, "All my attention now is on my grandfather's disappearance and my parents' affairs, I don't have the mood and can't spare my energy to take care of other things, I will carry the pressure on the Daomen, the Yin and Yang family, I will leave it to you for the time being, and when it stabilizes in the future, I will make arrangements again." ”
Lao Xi nodded in response, got up to leave, I stopped him, "Wait, prepare some gifts for the new family," I put the two beads I had just given Linglong and a set of knives on the table, and Jiang Wan also took out half of the mask. Lao Xi put the things away, and I secretly poked and poked something into Lao Xi's hand. Lao Xi glanced down, his face changed, and he understood who this was for, so he nodded and turned to leave.
Lao Xi just left, after closing the door, I leaned back, leaning on Jiang Wan, Jiang Wan helped me smooth my hair, warm palms passed through my long hair, when I went down, the dust sword was smoothed down, he picked up the dust sword, and helped me smooth my hair, and then helped me pull it up.
"It's time to cut your hair." Jiang Wan smoothed the bangs in front of me, and some of them were eyes.
I squinted my eyes slightly, I was really sleepy all the way, and I replied in a daze, "Well, another day." ”
The night was already very deep, the door of the Yang family had been closed, and the old man in the tunic seemed to be faltering, but in fact, he walked steadily at every step, but there was no footprint on the ground, the old man turned his head to look at the renovated house, and let out a long sigh of relief, showing a nostalgic smile on his face.
"It's finally back."
After wandering for almost forty years, I finally returned to this home, and finally, I have another place to stay.
Today, the new arrivals are gathering in a room, and they don't say anything to each other, and people from hell will not give their trust so easily, even if they are friends and partners who want to cooperate in the future, they have only one purpose here, that is, to live a life that belongs to people, hoping that someone can see them as a person.
"A few people," Lao Xi entered the house, "the content and regulations of the work must be clear, it's not early today, let's rest early, we will start working tomorrow." ”
A few people got up without saying a word and were about to go out, when Lao Xi suddenly remembered something. "That's right. There is one more thing, this is a gift prepared by the young family master for you," he said, opening the box in his hand, and the contents of it suddenly came into the eyes of the four people. The four reached out and picked up their share of the gift.
"It's so beautiful," a girl in a dark blue casual dress picked up the bracelet and exclaimed, "A gift from the young master, it's the first time I've received a gift from someone else, that young master must be a good person, right, sister." ”
"Hmm," the girl next to her, dressed in the same red and black casual suit, nodded, although her face was expressionless, but the joy in her eyes was real.
It was a real pleasure to receive a gift for the first time.
"Huh? The young master's gift, I haven't seen the young master yet, I don't know if it's a man or a woman," the cook smiled, picked up the set of knives, opened it, and his face suddenly sank. "Lao Xi, the young head of our family is a local tyrant, this is a set of knives forged by a master with cold iron in the last century, killing people without blood, I remember that this thing was copied to a sky-high price at an auction venue more than ten years ago, how could it be here?"
Lao Xi was also puzzled by this, "I don't know about this, by the way, the young head of the family is a girl." ”
"Hahaha, I didn't expect that I could still receive gifts from girls in my life, I am still a big tyrant, it seems that I will have to hold this thigh tightly in the future, and I don't have to worry about eating and drinking," Uncle Chef smiled, a little obscene, but his eyes flashed inexplicably, a chef, he attaches great importance to good knives, he reached out and pulled out the knife, and suddenly a dazzling cold light shot out, reflecting his eyes are also cold.
The last man took the half of the mask and put it on his face, without saying a word, his eyes were dim, he could no longer be called a living person, and there was no life in his eyes.
"Mr. West," exclaimed the girl in the dark blue casual suit, after putting the collar around her neck, "may I ask where the young master is, I like this gift very much, and I want to thank Miss very much, because this is the first time I have received a gift, and I am really happy." ”
"Hehe, it's good if you like it," Lao Xi smiled lightly: "As for the young master, the young master has just arrived, and he is a little tired from the long journey, and he is afraid that he has already slept in this world, so don't bother her, I will see you tomorrow." ”
"Good!" The girl replied happily.
This is the liveliness that a girl of this age should have, Lao Xi remembered that when these two children first arrived here, he was dangerously startled, it was not a human eye, he wanted to be a beast, and he wanted to be a ghost, it was a kind of eye that was always suppressed in the darkness and could not be released, fear, indifference, grief and anger, and pain, mixed with all the negative emotions, gloomy and terrible.
But after all, it's still a child, and a small gift can be so happy.
My room is next door to my grandfather's room in the past, occupying a small two-story building, Jiang Wan was driven back by me, I just wanted to sleep, but I remembered that there were some other things, sitting at the huge desk and sorting out some information, now I am the young master of the Yin and Yang family, revenge is one thing, but more important is to complete my own responsibility, my current responsibility is to prepare for what is about to happen, not only the Lingqi Conference, but also everything in the Yang family now, so now I have to try to take over.
These materials are all obtained by Lao Xi for me, some are related to the onmyoji, and some are the past of the Yang family, I have to sort them out one by one, read them, and when I combed them all aside, I stretched my waist, scattered the long hair that was pulled up, brushed it, and unconsciously looked at the moonlight outside the window, and the cold temperature sprinkled down, I was a little stunned.
I didn't know what I was thinking for a long time, and after my brain was empty for a while, I got up and went to take a shower to get ready for bed, but when I came, I brought a change of clothes, washed it briefly, and climbed into bed to get ready to go to bed after changing my clothes.
In the second half of the night, I don't know if it's the bed or what's the reason, I'm inexplicably sober, I haven't fallen asleep for half a day, I want to get up and practice for a while, but I don't have any motivation at all, play with my mobile phone and find that there is no Internet here, well, let Lao Xi connect the net tomorrow, how to live without the network, the more I think about it, the more I feel bored, so I want to have some fun, and suddenly remembered that there are already three disciples back, but I haven't seen it yet, and the new workers haven't seen it, so it's better to go to see what they look like at night?
