Chapter 64: Flame City, Shao Family
Xiao Han and Ah Chou each borrowed a horse and galloped down the mountain.
Today, it is autumn at the foot of the mountain, and the shades between heaven and earth are yellow.
Along the way, autumn is crisp... Fiery maple leaves, golden rice, emerald green pines and cypresses, clear blue skies, and white and delicate clouds like cotton. It is really the autumn color of the trees and trees, and the mountains and mountains are only sunset.
Xiao Han galloped on his horse, and his heart was also extremely happy. This time, Xiao Han went down the mountain with Ah Chou, and he did have the intention of emptying his mind, playing in the mountains and rivers, and observing the customs and customs. Of course, if there is an opportunity to achieve some experience in the rivers and lakes, Xiao Han will not let it go.
Besides, when you get off the mountain, you are extremely excited, and there is a taste of holding back for a long time to let off the wind. The whole person's eyebrows are dancing, and they are happy. Moreover, the eyes can't help but overflow with strong lovesickness.
Xiao Han's heart moved, remembering that Ah Chou had told himself that he had a fiancée and was waiting for him at home.
"Hey... Brother Chou, this time you return home, you can finally see the wife you have been thinking about for a long time, congratulations, congratulations, hahaha. Xiao Han couldn't help but laugh.
Ah Chou was shy for a while, and said astringently. "Xiao Han, I won't tell you, I really want to see Jiaojiao every day and every night..."
"Jiaojiao? That's a good name! It's a beautiful woman's name when you hear it. Xiao Han said with a smile.
"Delicate as a flower like jade, as beautiful as a fairy, that's right. However, Xiao Han is not as good as your two confidants in the Medicine King Valley. Ugly said seriously.
"Medicine King Valley?" Xiao Han's expression was slightly suffocated, and he immediately smiled lightly, "Wait until I have cultivated to the True Qi Realm before mentioning this matter!"
"I'm sorry, Xiao Han. I didn't mean to mention it. Ah Chou quickly changed his words. "By the way, Xiao Han, I haven't told you yet, my real name. My name is 'Shao Yunfan'. However, in the Yunyu Sect, everyone calls me 'Ah Ugly', Xiao Han, you don't have to change your words. I'm used to it. ”
"Oh... Brother Chou, your name is quite elegant. Xiao Han said seriously.
"Xiao Han, my family is located in the 'Flame City' within the territory of the Beacon Fire Empire, which is tens of thousands of miles away from our Yunyu Sect, but we ride a horse and travel thousands of miles a day, and we will arrive in a few days. Ugly gushed. "While I'm in a hurry, I'll tell you about the family's situation. ”
Gradually, Ah Ugly's expression became solemn.
"Senior Brother Chou, please speak, little brother listens. Xiao Han said.
"Xiao Han, first of all, the 'Flame City' is a city, not a township. With a population of millions, there are troops of the Beacon Empire stationed. It can be regarded as a major city in the Beacon Empire. Military Aircraft Stronghold. And our Shao family, in the 'Fire City', is the number one family that deserves to be. Famous family, big family. It is no exaggeration to say that the 'Flame City' is controlled by our Shaw family. Even the city lord has to look at the face of our old man..."
"Awesome...," Xiao Han sighed. "Senior Brother Ugly, I really didn't expect that your family is simply powerful in the world!"
"Hey... Xiao Han, the power is overwhelming, but he doesn't dare to say it. You have to know that Lu Dao, today, it is still dominated by sects, and the big sects can compete with the empire. The family gate valve is not worth mentioning in front of the big sects. Ugly laughed. "Xiao Han, then again, our Shao family, the current patriarch, is my grandfather. And my grandfather gave birth to eight sons, and I am the only son of my grandfather's fourth son. How to say it... My mother gave birth to my son, who was only for my father. As for the children born to their father's concubines, they will never be qualified to inherit the patriarch for the sake of concubines... Xiao Han, you know what I'm talking about, right?"
Xiao Han knocked his head and thought for a while before he said. "Brother Ugly, I understand. Your Shao family is a famous family, spreading branches and leaves, and people are prosperous. You belong to the lineage. In the future, he has the qualifications to inherit the patriarch. That's what you mean, right?"
"Hmm," Ugly nodded deeply, thoughtful. "However, Xiao Han, I want to inherit my grandfather's position, and it is very difficult. My grandfather had eight sons, and in my father's veins, some of them were thin. As an only son, my father had high expectations for me, and spent a lot of effort to send me to the Yunyu Sect to practice martial arts. But my qualifications are really the next choice. It was only with the elixir you purchased for me and the Deadwood Treasure Record you gave me that I barely managed to enter the Essence Refining Realm. Ay... It's a shame to think about. My uncle's eldest son, Shao Yuntian, entered the Eight Desolation Hall when he was young, and is a genius in the sky, and now he is in the outer gate of the Eight Desolation Palace, sitting on the name of the Ten Great Geniuses, and has a bright future, and is the chief talent of my Shao family, and he will inherit the position of the patriarch in the future, and his voice is very high...... Forget it, don't talk about it, these cousins and cousins are like mountains, pressing on my head, and I can't breathe. In fact, every time I went back to the clan meeting, I was inevitably ridiculed and ridiculed. No one would value a small role like me......"
Ah Chou laughed at himself, "In terms of talent, I have no talent; in terms of cultivation, I am barely refining the marrow, and it is impossible to exchange blood in my life; in terms of connections, I am in Yunyu Sect Xiao Han is a friend of you, brother." Unlike my cousins and cousins, every time I come back to participate in the clan meeting, I call friends and friends, and the scenery is dazzling...... Hey, Xiao Han, although I came from a big family, I have low self-esteem and am very helpless. In fact, I had no ambition to become the patriarch, but I failed my father's high expectations. ”
"Next year, I'm going back to the family, to get a quiet job, to fight with people, and not to get involved in the twists and turns within the family. But fortunately, I still have Jiaojiao, when I think of being able to stay with her for the rest of my life and let her have children for me, I feel that this life is enough, hahaha, Xiao Han, I'm sorry, I told you so many heavy things. Ugly shook his head and smiled.
"Hey... Brother Ugly, don't be presumptuous. Don't worry, the little brother is not talented, but this time he returned to the Shao family with Senior Brother Chou, and he will definitely go all out to fight for your face! Your cousins and cousins, if they dare to laugh at you, the little brother will naturally have a way to clean them up!" Xiao Han smiled and patted Chou's shoulder as a sign of encouragement.
"Well, Xiao Han, your combat power is terrifying, killing people at a higher level is as simple as drinking water and eating, faintly, you have become a great genius in the outer gate of the Yunyu Sect, you are sharp, transcendent, I have made friends with you, and I will not lose at all to those cousins and cousins' painstaking connections! This time, my father will definitely be very happy!" "Let's go, Xiao Han, let's hurry up and rush back to Flame City early!"
"Let's go!"
Two horses, gone in the dust.
......
Three days later.
A city appeared in Xiao Han and Ugly's field of vision.
This city is square, stretching for thousands of miles, the tiger is standing on the dragon plate, and the weather is strict!
There was a moat dug in front of the gates.
The moat is deep and wide, and the city walls are thick and high, giving people a majestic momentum that is difficult to open.
Outside the city, there are military camps continuously, the flag is like the sea, and the city tower is full of soldiers with strong flesh and armor, swords and swords, like dragons and tigers!
What a city!
"Xiao Han! It's here! This is Flame City! Let's enter the city!" Ugly roared excitedly. "Haha
