"Won't it?"

Xia Xiao took Ah Candle's hand, looked at the light cluster formed by the vitality on it, and then looked at her chest. The seal on it does exist, and the vitality can be released normally. This came and went, Xia Xiao was stunned. Ah Candle is a guy who can hide his breath when he doesn't have vitality, so his breath has not been exposed, which is not surprising, after all, he has known it for a long time. But the blood seal can't stop the release of her vitality?

Because Xia Xiao didn't know much about the Blood Character Seal, this was the first time he had seen it, and he had never heard of it before. So at first, I tried many times, but I really couldn't use the Yuan Qi, and I couldn't even perceive my own Five Elements Space, and the Tree of Yuan Qi that I was familiar with also disappeared into nothingness. But Ah Candle can use it, his heart is extremely unbalanced, but a few more glances can make Ah Candle shy.

"You're so annoying. ”

Xia Xiao only reacted when she saw Ah Candle's blushing face, but laughed at her:

"Aren't you going to sleep together?

Ah Candle took a breath, wanted to refute but didn't know what to say, only strong words, muttered:

"There are so few rooms in the city, wouldn't it be good to leave an extra room for someone else?"

"Come on, it's not right, wait for later!"

Xia Xiao said and walked out, this time Ah Candle didn't stop him, just snickered, she liked Xia Xiao like this very much. But after a while, Xia Xiao walked back and reminded:

"Don't think about it, you will talk about your life experience when you go back to the academy, take a good rest for yourself, and in the afternoon we will go to the mountains outside the city to catch hares." ”

"Okay!"

Ah Candle clutched his chest, extremely energetic. However, although she didn't contribute much in the morning battle, she was injured when she landed, and now she has some pain in her body, and she wants to sleep. But Xia Xiao was not as easy as her, but went to find Xia Jinghong.

Although Xia Xiao's current strength can defeat his father, his vision is as long-term as his. But when it comes to things, since my father is around, it's better to discuss it, and it's not a bad thing to listen to his opinion. Xia Xiao has always been like this, and he has not changed because he has seen too much of the world, which makes Xia Jinghong happy.

Because of the previous battle of the Qulun cultivators in the Silent World, Xiyang City had an impact. Among them, the houses where the Xia family army was stationed were the most damaged, and some people were smashed. As the only general of this army, Xia Jinghong patrolled around and cooperated with Xia Xu to rest and renovate the house. At this time, earth-walking practitioners are very practical. And after Xia Xiao came, before he could speak, Xia Xu had already walked to the side with the adjutant to continue to be busy, while Xia Jinghong accompanied Xia Xiao to the side and walked towards the city wall in the distance. Since you want to talk, let's talk about it.

"What about worrying about the blood seal?"

"Well, the poisonous elder said that it would not be able to be solved for a while and a half, and it would take another month for it to dissipate naturally, so I thought about whether to go back to the academy or stay in the army. ”

"Let me start with your opinion. ”

This is Xia Jinghong's habit, and Xia Xiao is worthy of gratitude.

Since childhood, in order to cultivate his ability to think independently, his father will take the lead in listening to his own opinions no matter what, instead of making decisions for his children all the time like most parents. Although Xia Jinghong is like this because he is often away from home and needs them to make their own decisions, it is a good habit anyway.

Xia Xiao said while walking:

"It's convenient to go back, but it's not good to run to the academy in case of trouble, after all, what I'm doing now only represents an individual, and it has nothing to do with the academy. The poisoning last time was enough to trouble the seniors of the academy, and it was a bit troublesome to go back in just three days. There are many such things, and even if my predecessors have more patience, I will not be able to do it. ”

"What's more, Ah Candle can use her vitality even if she has a seal, her identity is a mystery in the first place, if she goes back, I'm afraid she will be left in the academy, then I won't be able to come back. Now that there is no candle, I can't leave the academy an inch, and those people in the dark are always waiting for me to reveal my breath. ”

Speaking of this, Xia Xiao took his father's forearm and walked back, he kept controlling the distance, and it was impossible to walk until he reached the city wall. Seeing his action, Xia Jinghong secretly praised himself, he was careless before, and he didn't take this kind of problem into account. Xia Jinghong looked at Xia Xiao's resolute side face and felt that he was indeed mature, but he didn't say it.

"Daddy, what do you think?"

"It's better to stay!" A month is actually not a long time, and this time the morale has been boosted by the strongest during this time, and the impact of your departure at this time is too great, and it is not cost-effective. Besides, it can disappear on its own, so you don't have to worry too much, just wait with peace of mind. ”

"I'm afraid that NCB will launch a large-scale offensive this month. ”

'There will definitely be an attack, but we will definitely be able to stop it. ”

"We still need to speed up the discussion of countermeasures. ”

Originally, before the war, Su Zhongmou and many strategists made a variety of predictions and corresponding plans. But the strength shown by Nanshang is stronger than we thought, and now in addition to the million elite army, there is also a Shenwei army that is very tricky, if you want to save your life and win in the hands of such Nanshang, there should be no way to do it in a short time. However, this kind of thing can only be handed over to them, and we can only lead troops to fight, and we have to admire their open-mindedness in this regard, and we can only wait. ”

"The second sister's talent in this area is gradually showing, and she may be able to come up with a plan that is enough to alarm the alliance. But Dad, in that case, Nanguo is afraid that it will be difficult for the second sister, and they definitely don't want to have such a smart woman in the family. ”

"Rest assured, smart women know how to protect themselves better than men. ”

Xia Jinghong said, and couldn't help laughing. His wife Xiao Rong is a smart woman, she can easily take care of the top and bottom of the mansion by herself, even if she is not at home often, she can live a stable life when she returns to the house, no one will say irresponsible things, and no one will reduce her respect for his summer mansion. It is not easy to do these things, and it is the same as governing the army, but it is more difficult than it, after all, the most broken mouths in the world are not soldiers, but neighbors.

Xia Jinghong's three sons are all talented. The boss Xia Xu is brave and good at fighting, although he is stupid and upright, he is not easy to argue, but he is strong and strong, and he is very good at leading troops. The second Xia Wan is knowledgeable, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the ancient books of the art of war are even more extensive. Although the third Xia Xiao said that he did not have the ability to lead troops and the wisdom of political affairs, the position he would go to in the future would be unimaginable for Xia Xu and Xia Wan.

What's more, even if Xia Xiao gradually covered up Xia Xu and Xia Wan's talents, they were not jealous, but always cared about him as the family members of the eldest brother and sister. For Xia Jinghong, a father, the harmony of the family is the most important thing. He has always valued his family, and the Xia family, who has spent many things together, is extremely united.

Xia Xiao chatted with his father for more than an hour, and when the time was about right, he took the two horses, returned to the previous courtyard, and set off with Ah Candle to catch hares in the mountains not far from Xiyang City.

Because he lost his vitality, Xia Xiao put a bow and arrows on his back, a dagger and some equipment, and made up for the roasted hare that was a season late.

It is difficult to fly without vitality, but there is also fun in horseback riding. There were sparsely populated outside Xiyang City, Xia Xiao and Ah Zhu walked towards the mountains in the afternoon, spent a few hours, really caught a few fat hares, and then opened a small stove by the stream.

Ah Candle held a large handful of dry firewood, and was very happy, and after making a pile of firewood, he roasted the hare with charcoal. Waiting for the oil bubbles to bubble up on the hare meat, Xia Xiao, who was sitting on the cobblestone, patted his thigh and said in surprise:

"I forgot to bring the spices!"

"Ahh

Ah Candle was extremely disappointed, her frozen red nose looked pitiful, but Xia Xiao took out a handful of salt and chili noodles and sprinkled them on the hare.

"Look at your little look. ”

"Since you dare to lie to me!"

"What, don't you want to eat?

"Gotcha!"

Ah Candle was roasting on the charcoal fire, his eyes were full of deliciousness, and every few seconds he asked if he was ready, and his saliva flowed turbulently. Xia Xiao replied over and over again, and finally said impatiently:

"You go and see if those traps have any rabbits, and you can eat them when you come back!"

Ah Candle ran away after hearing this, and didn't reply. Running into the bushes, she hummed a little song, and then came back with the hare.

"Little bunny, you're so cute!"

Ah Candle muttered to herself and praised it, but if it knew that this guy's brain was full of roasted rabbit meat that was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, it would definitely not be as well-behaved as it is now, and she lifted the back of her neck and did not move.

"Xia Xiao, there are two super big rabbits. ”

Xia Xiao lowered his body and took a bite of rabbit meat, the fragrance was charming, and his eyes were red.

"Since you eat first!"

"I'll give you a taste. ”

"I don't believe it, let it go!"

Ah Candle was extremely domineering and held a whole rabbit, and the little sadness that buried the rabbit's head before was all gone, and the food was extremely fragrant. It is really very pleasant to have such a few roast rabbits in late autumn, but Xia Xiao did not roast them immediately, but just tied two live rabbits together.

"Aren't you baking?"

"Keep one for my father and one for my eldest brother, now that food is scarce, I can't forget my family when I have meat to eat. ”

"I haven't forgotten you, oh, I'll give you a big rabbit leg. ”

"A whole rabbit, just give me a rabbit leg?"

"That'...... I'll give you half a more. ”

Ah Candle is extremely atmospheric, she likes to eat delicious food, and she prefers Xia Xiao. But Xia Xiao didn't want it, arched his hand and let her eat. Ah Candle smiled and said that you are so good, you are no longer polite, you have to eat it fragrantly.

"Drinking?"

"A small bite. ”

Ah Zhu slapped his tongue and felt spicy, but after a while, he took a sip and felt that it was extremely fragrant with rabbit meat. Although they didn't eat all-you-can-eat meat, in the evening, the two of them drove their horses back to Xiyang slowly. Seeing them running out like horses and coming back like this, the gatekeepers were envious. But envy is envy, they don't have the ability, and they don't dare to follow suit and run out of the city.

Tonight was roasted by Ah Candle, and sent by her, seeing the smiles on Xia Jinghong and Xia Xu's faces, she vaguely felt that she could integrate into this family, so she was extremely happy, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised until she fell asleep. But not far away, Xia Xiao sat in the room, looking at the person in front of him with a serious face.

"Tell me, what's the point?"
