Chapter 11: The Little Devil

"Really?" Zi Yi looked at Qi Feng in surprise and asked, "Can you really take me into the City Lord's Mansion?"

Ziyi originally just talked casually, and didn't have much hope, after all, the city lord of Xincheng was a high-ranking figure, how could the city lord's mansion be entered by ordinary people?

"It shouldn't be a big problem. Qi Feng said disappreciably.

Ziyi believed that Qifeng had this ability, not to mention how happy she was. Because Zixiao once guessed that he was a big family in Xincheng, maybe Qifeng's father really had a little friendship with the city lord.

After dinner, the examiner assigned a room, asked everyone to go back to the room to rest first, and told everyone not to go out tonight. Because there will be examiners who will come to register the intention of applying for the sect one room by one, and each person can fill in a maximum of two sect intentions. Tomorrow's schedule is to have a physical examination in the morning and a preliminary examination in the afternoon.

Shinjo Castle Lord's Mansion.

Uncle Kun, Uncle Kun, and Aunt Six couldn't stay overnight in the hotel where the candidates were, so they went back to the City Lord's Mansion.

Xincheng City Lord Qi Lin and his wife sat in the high hall, listened to Uncle Kun's report on the situation of Qi Feng and Yi Chen, nodded and said, "Everyone has worked hard, let's go down and rest!"

The three of them bowed and exited the lobby.

After the three of them left, the city lord's wife said, "Husband, why don't you let Feng'er and Chen'er go back to the mansion to rest!"

The city lord's wife, Yu Lan, is nearly forty years old, dignified and virtuous, and was once the first beauty in Xincheng, and was deeply favored by Qilin. Among the city lords of the five cities of Huaguo, Qi Lin was the only city lord who did not have a concubine.

"Madame wants to see those two boys, right?" Qi Lin smiled, put Yu Lan's hand into his palm and patted it, "It's better to let them go back to the house after the sect test, so as not to cause trouble." We've been waiting for eight years, and it's not bad for a few days. ”

"How can you not want to? After all, it's your own child. Yu Lan said with a little disappointment, got up from her chair, and walked out of the lobby.

Yu Lan was dressed in a light blue gauze skirt, tall and light, even if she took a few steps casually, her posture was very charming.

Qi Lin also stood up and followed behind Yu Lan. He was eight feet long, well-proportioned, and had a steady step, and he was a man of great courage.

"It's still the husband who is thoughtful, if you let people know that Feng'er and Chen'er are the children of the city lord's family, even if they are among the best, it will inevitably be gossip. Seeing that Qi Lin followed behind him and didn't speak, Yu Lan was afraid that he would be unhappy because of what he had just said, so he said.

"What Madame said is very true, thank you Madame for your understanding!" Qi Lin said, taking off his brocade clothes and draping them on Yu Lan's body, "It's almost autumn, it's cold outside!"

Outside the lobby is the high platform of the Castle Lord's Mansion, which can be overlooked from the inside of the city.

"Feng'er and Chen'er should be in that hotel at the moment, right?" asked Yu Lan, pointing to a house in the distance.

"Yes. Qi Lin nodded and said, "Our Feng'er is sensible now, if it was before, how dare he let him be outside alone?"

"Thanks to Chen'er, this child. Yu Lan looked at the hotel in the distance and said, "Feng'er has been stubborn since he was a child, and he will harm wherever he goes, and the City Lord's Mansion has not been peaceful for a day, and he also burned the Northern Emperor's Mausoleum, which almost caused a catastrophe." Only when Chen'er accompanies him to practice can he calm down. ”

Qi Lin nodded, and he was also very emotional in his heart.

Eight years ago, Qifeng was only seven years old, but he was a little devil who everyone in Xincheng heard about. The merchants near the City Lord's Mansion would immediately close their doors and close their doors as soon as they saw Qi Feng walking out of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, fearing that they would suffer an unwarranted disaster, and even the birds in the trees would immediately flutter their wings and fly away as soon as they saw him. It is no exaggeration to say that wherever Qifeng goes, there is a radius of 100 meters, and no living creature dares to approach.

As the son of the city lord of Xincheng, Qi Feng is so arrogant and domineering, but no one dares to say much, everyone thinks that it is caused by Qi Lin's doting and pampering. In fact, although Qi Lin is busy with affairs and neglects to discipline Qi Feng, he is not spoiled. Qi Lin also knew that Qi Feng was very stubborn, and disciplined him harshly whenever he had time, but he couldn't change his habits in the slightest.

It wasn't until Qifeng burned the Northern Emperor's Mausoleum eight years ago, causing a catastrophe, that Qilin realized how terrible this son was. The Northern Emperor's Mausoleum is the mausoleum of the royal family of all dynasties, and it should not be disturbed, otherwise it is a capital crime. After such a catastrophe, Qi Lin could only kill his relatives in righteousness, personally tied up his son, and issued a beheading order.

After the emperor learned of this, he remembered that Qi Lin had contributed to stabilizing the northern part of China, and that Qi Feng was young and ignorant, so he issued a holy decree to pardon Qi Feng's capital crime, but he needed to be strictly guarded and expelled from Xincheng, and he was not allowed to set foot in the land of the five cities for half a step for eight years.

Huaguo stipulates that women reach adulthood at the age of 14 and men reach adulthood at the age of 15, and only after they reach adulthood can they apply for the sect entrance examination and participate in the sect test. The emperor limited Qifeng to eight years not to set foot in Xincheng, in fact, he left a way back, and when he became an adult, he could return to Xincheng to participate in the sect test. After all, in China, the people of the country understand that it is difficult for young people to become talents if they do not enter the sect.

Of course, Qi Lin understood the emperor's good intentions, and deeply felt the emperor's grace, so he hurriedly wrote a letter to express his determination to swear allegiance to the imperial family.

Qi Feng's life was saved, but the headache for Qi Lin was not over, that is, after Qi Feng left Xincheng, who would take care of it? At this time, Qi Lin learned that the Phaseless Heavenly Master traveled to Yuntai Mountain near Xincheng. Qi Lin personally tied Qi Feng out of the city and went to Yuntai Mountain to visit and ask the Heavenly Master for the method of teaching his son.

After inspecting Qi Feng, the Phaseless Heavenly Master informed Qi Lin that the child was suffering from mania.

Qi Lin hurriedly asked the Phaseless Heavenly Master for a healing method. The Phaseless Heavenly Master looked at Qi Feng's life and physiognomy, pinched his fingers, and told Qi Lin to go west immediately. In the desert to the west, they will meet a child of the same age as Qifeng, who is very intelligent, but weak and weak.

The Phaseless Heavenly Master said that this child and Qi Feng are interdependent, as long as he is by Qi Feng's side, Qi Feng can be quiet, and as long as Qi Feng is by the child's side, he can move like a normal person.

After Qi Lin said goodbye to the Phaseless Heavenly Master, he immediately took the third uncle to the west overnight. Because the Heavenly Master of Wuxiang said that if he went late, he was afraid that the child would not be able to wait for them.

That child was Qi Lin, who came back from the Western Desert and adopted as his adopted son.

The Phaseless Heavenly Master said that Yi Chen was the cure for Qifeng's mania. As long as Yi Chen can accompany Qi Feng to adulthood, Qi Feng's mania can be cured, and he will not need to be by his side in the future.

Thinking of this, Qi Lin sighed and said, "Feng'er's illness is cured, what should Chen'er do?" When they become adults, they will all have their own families in the future, and it is impossible to stay together all day long like when they were children. ”

"Didn't the Heavenly Master of Wuxiang say how to cure Chen'er's illness back then?" Yu Lan was also a little worried in her heart, and looked at Qi Lin and asked.

Qi Lin shook his head and said, "Regarding Chen'er's condition, the Wuxiang Heavenly Master only said one sentence: That's not a disease, it's a fate!"
