People change.

This does not mean that Xiao Ming Ade will betray the shopkeeper in the future.

It's that when children grow up, they will always have their own thoughts and pursuits.

The grace of nurturing and teaching has kept them by the shopkeeper's side for more than 20 years, but this does not mean that they will be like this for the rest of their lives.

Especially since they are uneducated, and even have a huge organization in their hands that spreads throughout the Asuka Dynasty.

Over time.

Sooner or later, someone will be unable to hold back the heart that is hidden in his heart.

In fact, the shopkeeper doesn't mind that they leave him.

After all, when the fledgling grows full, it has a day to leave its parents and spread its wings.

But the shopkeeper didn't want them to go down the wrong path.

Xiao Ming: The organization they set up seems to have eyes and hands, but in fact, it is like a fortress made of sand that will collapse with a slight push.

Because the roots of their organization are too shallow.

This is a congenital problem that has existed since the beginning.

After all, the original intention of their first organization was just to live a better and stable life.

When the organization began to grow rapidly, the deficiencies in management and system were completely exposed, and many seeds of hidden dangers were planted.

Mind control is not a panacea.

What's more, Xiao Ming, there are only four of them.

There are many things that are beyond the reach of the whip.

This aspect is a bit like that of an emperor who sits in the center and gives orders.

Leaving the center, even if people in other places deceived and deceived the emperor and disobeyed the emperor, they would not know.

Now Xiao Ming and they are facing such a situation.

The domino effect that will be generated when the time comes will cause them huge problems in a short period of time.

Taboo.

Because the major sects of the Asuka Dynasty will never tolerate the appearance of a mysterious organization that can threaten themselves under their noses.

The key is that the power of this mysterious organization is too strong.

It is so powerful that all sects are wary of hostility.

Once all the sects join forces.

Xiao Ming, their seemingly powerful organization will collapse and collapse in an instant.

This is the consequence of a weak foundation.

A long time ago.

The shopkeeper knew that Xiao Ming was secretly doing small actions.

Just because he doesn't care doesn't mean he doesn't care.

Now something is wrong.

Naturally, he was going to come forward.

Of course.

He did not come forward in person, but let Ah Chao replace him.

so as not to cause Xiao Ming's sensitive nerves.

In the eyes of the shopkeeper.

It's not a big deal to organize.

It's like watching the kids play with the house.

But if you play seriously and play too much, you won't be able to.

So he had to put out the sign in advance.

If there are still people who are obsessed.

The shopkeeper will be left to his own devices.

Good words are hard to persuade damned ghosts, and great compassion is not self-exterminating.

Even though they are all adopted children.

But he doesn't interfere with their own lives of choices.

He has taught what he should have taught.

Whatever choice they make, they must bear the consequences.

In the courtyard of an ordinary house.

The shopkeeper shook the turbid wine in the bowl, and looked at Lao Gu who was snoring on the table in front of him in a daze.

Lao Gu is one of his neighbors.

Tonight he invited himself to dinner.

Because he had a lot of things suppressed in his heart and wanted to talk to someone.

Lao Gu is alone, just like the shopkeeper.

The difference is.

Lao Gu is middle-aged and widowed, and his only daughter who is left behind rarely comes back after she gets married.

Maybe it's because he misses his deceased wife, so he hasn't renewed the strings all these years.

I was busy with my livelihood on weekdays.

Most of the time after dinner, I go to bed early.

Occasionally, if he was in a bad mood, he would order two jugs of wine at the shopkeeper's inn, or directly invite the shopkeeper to his house for a drink.

Why do many neighbors like to invite the shopkeeper to eat and drink?

In addition to being a good man in charge, he is also a well-spoken and qualified listener.

The so-called drunken spit out the truth.

This statement is not without reason.

Over the years.

The shopkeeper no longer knows how many people have listened to him confide in their privacy and secrets.

Every time.

He'll listen very carefully.

He's not pretending, he's not being perfunctory.

It's really serious.

Because.

A lot of things, a lot of feelings, a lot of experiences are what he lacks.

That's right.

The shopkeeper is Xia Fan, who escaped from the whirlpool of right and wrong in Nanlizhou.

These more than 20 years.

He came to an ordinary country in Dongmingzhou, and then settled down like an ordinary person in an ordinary city.

Everything, everything.

He's all about solving the demons that plague him.

It's a pity until now.

He still hasn't solved his demons.

Sometimes he couldn't help but be skeptical.

Is your own solution wrong?

But he soon dismissed the idea.

More than 20 years.

He still had too little to experience.

There are still a long days to come.

Besides, the problem of inner demons is definitely not something that can be solved in a while.

And the last thing he needs now is time.

For the four children adopted by themselves.

In fact, Xia Fan is not entirely out of compassion, but also has the taste of experiencing being a teacher.

He treated them as his own children, his own disciples.

Teach them what they know as much as possible.

So many years of getting along day and night.

He can be said to know these children very well.

Xiao Ming is the eldest of them all, and has always played the role of their eldest brother.

But Xiao Ming is the most mediocre person among them in every way.

Ah Chao is the second brother.

His greatest characteristic is his composure.

It belongs to the resolute people who do not move like a mountain and move like thunder.

Ade is the third brother.

He was the brightest and most thoughtful of the children.

And Xia Fan is also most worried about him.

It's nothing more than having a lot of ideas, which often means being restless.

Little Bear is the youngest child and the only girl.

On the surface, Little Bear is an old-fashioned person, but in fact, she is quite delicate inside, but she rarely shows it.

Each of the four children has its own problems.

But they all grew up eventually.

It's time for Xia Fan to let them go.

As long as you don't go down the wrong path, everything is easy to say.

He had no objection to them forming this organization.

He objected to the fact that they shouldn't let the organization mess their minds.

Power can be addictive, and it can make people lose themselves.

Their power and power came all too easily.

Again.

At a young age, they have never experienced any setbacks with strong winds and waves.

If they are not careful, they may fall into the abyss from which they will never recover.

As an elder, Xia Fan naturally wanted to pull them in advance.

This time the organization should be regarded as a lesson for them.

"Heh, find a wife for Lao Tzu, is this a foreshadowing for your future departure?"

Think about why they grew their organization.

Xia Fan couldn't help but shake his head and chuckled.

He didn't know if they really wanted to find a family for themselves, or if they had some unknown purpose.

For their chosen future wives.

Xia Fan didn't know what to say.

There was one sentence that he was not mistaken.

Is he the one who lacks women?

In the past, when he was in the Nether, he didn't encounter the situation of being upside down.

It's just that the other party's mind is not pure, and Xia Fan, who has no thoughts in this regard, has all pushed it away.

Otherwise.

Maybe his great-grandson will be able to make soy sauce.

However.

His mindset was no longer as resistant as it used to be.

Marry a wife and have children.

He has to go through it once in his life.

If he hadn't died so early in his previous life, he would have thought about marriage in the future in three or five years.

But since he crossed.

I don't know how many years have passed.

But he was still alone.

There was a moment.

He suddenly figured it out.

Maybe.

His life needed a change.

......

"Dong Cailing, you can't escape. ”

Early in the morning.

A deep shout suddenly echoed in a lush valley.

Even though he saw two figures, one in front of the other, running wildly.

"Why?! Obviously, I have always covered it up well, why did Qin Ji from Dongshan Gate find out my whereabouts?"

Dong Cailing, who was running for her life, dressed up as an ordinary-looking man, and her whole expression looked extremely solemn.

She couldn't figure it out.

Why did you suddenly get exposed?

Could it be that someone has betrayed himself?

The problem is this time.

She had very little contact with practitioners.

Even if they touch, the other party may not be able to see through their disguise.

If it weren't for my quick reaction last night.

I'm afraid that Qin Ji has already been caught.

She knew Qin Ji.

This young master of Dongshan Gate.

Not long since.

While his father was still alive.

Qin Ji came with his father to visit Linwu Villa.

That's when we met.

She doesn't like Qin Ji as a person.

Although Qin Ji concealed it well at that time, she still keenly noticed a trace of covetousness in the other party's eyes.

Men covet women.

Afterwards.

She even heard about it.

It turned out that Qin Ji's father came to visit his father to ask for marriage.

It's just that Qin Ji's father hinted more vaguely.

His father simply pretended not to hear it.

Clinker is unpredictable.

When her father died at the hands of her uncle, and she escaped from the Misty Villa and was hunted down.

Among them, Qin Ji is the one who has been actively searching for his whereabouts.

But how can Dong Cailing let the other party find out?

One is bright and one is dark.

So much so that the two are often thousands of miles apart.

However.

Last night, Qin Ji suddenly appeared, and even identified himself in disguise.

One can imagine the consternation in Dong Cailing's heart.

There's a ghost in there!

The first time.

Dong Cailing had this idea in his mind.

However, she didn't have a chance to ask Qin Ji for verification at all, and Qin Ji might not tell herself the truth.

As a result, the two chased and fled, and before they knew it, it was already early in the morning.

Qin Ji is like a kraft candy, no matter how you shake it, you can't get rid of it.

Although Dong Cailing still has the strength to escape.

But it's been a long time.

Sooner or later, she would let Qin Ji catch up.

After all, her strength itself is not as good as Qin Ji.

"There's White Sparrow City ahead......"

When the silhouette of a city gradually appeared in the line of sight.

Dong Cailing subconsciously recognized his current position.

Into the city or bypass?

If you enter the city, you may be able to cause a riot and take advantage of the opportunity to escape.

The problem is that if Qin Ji shouts his name, he is afraid that it will attract more cultivators to join the pursuit.

If you go around......

Without waiting for Dong Cailing to continue thinking.

While passing through the woods on the outskirts of White Sparrow.

A sudden change occurred.

A person who broke out of the ground suddenly attacked Qin Ji behind him.

"Who is it?"

A terrible cry sounded.

Suddenly.

Two extraordinary auras collided violently.

Dong Cailing just glanced back, but the pace of escape did not lag at all.

I saw a cyan figure and a black figure constantly intertwining and fighting with each other, and the aftermath of the agitation caused the surrounding trees to be destroyed.

She didn't mean to go back and help.

In a blink of an eye.

Her people have all rushed into the White Sparrow.

After some rounding and re-camouflage.

When Dong Cailing reappeared, she changed into another appearance, and the aura on her body was completely different from the original.

She stood at the mouth of the alley and looked out to the outskirts of the city.

All the cultivators in the city who sensed the aura of battle on the outskirts of the city galloped away.

And Dong Cailing was about to think about what to do next.

An indifferent voice suddenly sounded in her ears.

"Dong Cailing, do you want revenge?"

Who knew that Dong Cailing listened.

Without saying a word, he will flee.

Pity.

A fair, slender hand gently patted her shoulder.

This made her lose control all over her body, and her face changed instantly.

"Aunt, did the girl recognize the wrong person?"

When Dong Cailing saw the person who subdued him clearly out of the corner of his eye, he was stunned to find that the other party turned out to be an ordinary-looking young girl.

Forced to calm down, she hurriedly said with a smile on her face.

"Dong Cailing, don't pretend in front of me, I have no ill will towards you. ”

The young girl is none other than the bear.

She slowly walked up to Dong Cailing's side, staring into her eyes expressionlessly.

“...... But the girl is also coming to arrest me and go back to the villa?"

Dong Cailing was silent for a moment, and finally stopped denying his identity.

"Have you forgotten what I just said? Dong Cailing, do you want revenge?"

Little Bear's expression did not change.

“...... Revenge, dare you ask the girl what she means by that?"

Dong Cailing was stunned, and his eyes gradually calmed down and looked at Xiao Xiongdao.

"We can help you get revenge, and even let you get back what is rightfully yours. ”

Little Bear said directly.

“...... But I don't believe you're going to avenge me for no reason. ”

Dong Cailing is not stupid, on the contrary, she is also very smart.

Otherwise, how could she escape from the heavily guarded Forest Fog Villa in the first place, and she had never even been caught.

"We really won't avenge you for no reason. ”

Little Bear said succinctly.

"What are the conditions?"

Dong Cailing was silent for a moment.

"Marry a man who you can't betray in your life. ”

Little Bear said in a flat tone.

"Good!"

Unexpectedly, Dong Cailing immediately agreed when he heard it.

"But I have one condition. ”

Say. ”

Little Bear said succinctly.

"If you want me to marry the person you say, you can, but only if you first help me avenge me and fulfill your promise to me. ”

Dong Cailing said with a resolute gaze.

"I need to ask for the consent of other people on this condition, and now, you can come with me. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Xiong casually patted Dong Cailing's shoulder.

Without looking back, he walked forward.

Dong Cailing looked at the other party's back and was stunned for a while.

Is she so relieved of me?

Aren't you afraid that I'll run away?

But.

She suddenly gritted her teeth and followed.
