This kind of thing Beidou naturally won't do. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Although the parents at home are just a pair of workaholics who are busy with "scientific research" outside all day long, but because the family is rich enough and the family has a special relationship, Beidou has not seen those so-called "big scenes".

Although he can't guarantee that he will do his best in any "social etiquette", as long as he is not greeted next by three sessions, Beidou is still confident that he will not be rude. On the contrary, it is the ripple guy who should be the object to be worried about, not to mention the smell of sweat all over his body, just the dirty vest he wears on his body, it is estimated that he is already unqualified.

"Ah, speaking of which, I'm about to go to half of the house, and the inventory will be stricter at that time. ”

After turning off the road, the always brave ripples carefully slowed down the speed of the car. The green pines on both sides of the road are lush and dense stretching to the distant sea, entrenched like guardians of the paradise, isolating all the hustle and bustle of the outside world from the woods.

However, although the trees on both sides are not as good as they should be, the road for cars is still new and smooth. Obviously, the half-family in the ripple sky is not the kind of family that only knows how to live in seclusion in the mountains.

Moreover, it is by no means an ordinary rich family. Because......

"Don't talk too much, big brother, I've been here once, and there's no problem with taking you in. ”

"Ahh......h I know. ”

Beidou nodded and cast his gaze out the window. The situation of this half of the family has not yet entered his door, and he can already understand part of it. There seems to be something in the woods constantly shuttling between the treetops, following the van closely, if it is a human being, then his "light work" is too rebellious, most of ...... It's a monster, could it be the legendary "dragon"?

After driving for a while, the van was finally stopped at the first "checkpoint".

"Parking. ”

Approaching the van are two young men in suits and sunglasses, although they are a bit of a gangster, but in Beidou's opinion, they should be ordinary "humans", not monsters.

"Do you have identification?"

"Ah, there are some, you look for it, ripple. ”

Ripple said, "This time it's a bit urgent, come to find the third lady." ”

"Well, the authentication is complete, no problem. After receiving confirmation from his companion, the man nodded, "And who is this one next to you?"

"It's a newcomer, who brought him to find the third lady to pass the test. ”

In the face of inquiry, Ripple's face was not red and his heart was not beating, while Beidou looked ahead with an "innocent" face.

"If you're not worried, just let me know, we'll just wait here. ”

“...... Well, no, you guys can go inside. After staring at Beidou with a strange gaze for a while, the man in sunglasses waved his hand and let the corrugated van go very casually. Naturally, the cheap ripples will no longer cause trouble, and they jumped out with one foot on the accelerator, leaving behind a few wisps of black exhaust.

Easy to pass, but Beidou always felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, obviously even the person with a guaranteed identity like Ripple was questioned, but for his black-clothed people, he let it go very casually, isn't this just that he thinks Beidou ...... Can't afford to make a big deal?

"Big brother, it's better to drive in than to wait there for a full body check-up. ”

Seeing Beidou's strange expression, Ripple patted him on the shoulder, "Big family, it's impossible for everyone to have any good temperament." Most of those people just now felt that you were not dangerous, so they let you in, I haven't met this kind of person, don't take it to heart. ”

"Hmm...... It's nothing. ”

Beidou sighed lightly, "In the future, there will be an opportunity for them to look at it squarely." ”

"Oh, yes, that's it. Ripple grinned, "The speed limit on this section of the road, if you drive too fast, you will be in trouble." Big brother, just take a look at the scenery. ”

Scenery...... No, it would be more appropriate to call it "Xanadu". After driving to the end along the monotonous and boring evergreen pine road on both sides, a real retreat emerges, with ancient trees and ancient walls, clear streams passing through the path, and the scenery like an ink painting, although the asphalt road slightly affects a trace of beauty, but it is also flawed. The fantasy scene really appears here, and as a place where the so-called "real dragon" stays, it is impeccable.

"It's a place where the dragon stays. ”

Beidou, who took a deep breath, suddenly felt refreshed, and even the rippled foot odor beside him seemed so worthless, "The air here feels different from the outside." ”

"Oh, big brother, you can feel it, you can. ”

Ripple exclaimed, "This is the place where the old gentleman has lived for a long time, and naturally he has a little 'dragon energy', the last time I came here, the hemorrhoids that have tormented me for a long time have been cured." ”

"Alright, don't talk to me about that. ”

Not wanting to be affected by the ripples anymore, Beidou twisted his head to the side. In the distance, you can faintly see one ancient house after another, with blue tiles and green bricks, as if people have traveled back to ancient times. As the car drove on, on both sides of the road, you could occasionally see some people called "maids" in the West and "maids" in ancient times, all of them wearing cloud clothes that they thought were valuable just by looking at them, some carrying baskets full of vegetables in their hands, and some were washing clothes and talking and laughing by the stream......

Just the maids are already like this, so the situation of the family that is about to meet can also be imagined.

"What's the matter? It's okay, it's okay, the first time I came here, I was so scared that I almost drove the car into the river. ”

"Yes, it's a little panicked. Just the formation of the subordinates is so big, so wouldn't their master ......"

Beidou sighed lightly, and soon a figure similar to the previous "maids" appeared in his sight. No, although it is said to be similar, but there is also a decisive difference, because this time I saw a woman with a sword at her waist...... She has a tail!

Like a lizard-like creature, her thick tail lifts the hem of her skirt slightly, but most likely because she deliberately let her tail hang down, so it doesn't go away. Compared with the maids who washed vegetables and laundry before, the woman I saw this time was more like an existence like a "guard".

Sensing Beidou's gaze, the woman stared at Beidou without hesitation and began to look at it, although the car quickly drove past her, but Beidou still clearly saw the other party's pair of cat-like eyes.

"Just now...... I may have seen a dragon. ”

"Oh, see? You'll get used to it after a few more looks. ”

Ripple grinned, and at the same time stopped the car with a foot of the brake, and whispered, "That one can't be considered 'orthodox' just now, but you can see the 'real dragon' later." Get off, we're here!"

......

The "trial" in a sense finally came, and Beidou, who got out of the car, waited quietly in front of a vermilion gate, dotted with golden gadgets that could be known without thinking about it. Although the overall style here is relatively retro, it is not behind the times, and soon Beidou saw a "cauldron" on the roof of a house in sight.

There's nothing wrong with thinking about it, since they're already the "old dragon kings" sitting on one side, it's normal to have some advanced things at home.

The ripples who turned off the engine and got out of the car quickly put away the previous casualness, and he even dusted off the dust on his vest for the first time with a tense face, but to be honest, this guy is not suitable for this kind of action, the vest that has long been dirty is not only dirty and dirty, but even touched the black mud on his hand, with his serious expression, like a tiger falling into a mud pit.

"Oh oh! Here we are!

The vermilion courtyard door was slowly pushed open, and a somewhat rickety figure walked out quickly.

The silver-haired old gentleman also shed some of the scales on his brown tail, revealing a folded cortex. He was wearing a monotonous and ordinary long shirt, with a back that had been bent a little, which couldn't help but make him look a little "old".

However, old is only physically old, this old gentleman's "heart" is obviously not old, those eyes are still bright, seemingly kind, but in fact, they swept towards Beidou fiercely. I don't really know anything, I guess it's only ripples.

"Uncle, remember me?"

Ripple hammered him in the chest, "I've been here before. ”

"Remember, remember. The old man smiled and nodded, "That little wave with 'qi' came running over covered in ashes...... Got in trouble?"

"Hey, a pretty troublesome youkai. Ripple scratched her head embarrassedly and smiled like a big child, "So I came to ask the third lady for help." ”

"It's time to come, the third lady arrived home yesterday and is resting now. ”

The old man smiled, "Then, this guy next to you ......"

Although he didn't want to "confront" this old-timer, Beidou, who was completely "targeted" by the other party, only felt as if he was being "targeted" by some fierce beast, so he had no choice but to go out and meet the old man's gaze with difficulty.

Deep, restrained, and as elusive as a deep pool, this old man who came out to greet the ripples may not actually look so "old".

"Ah, his name is Beidou, and he's a newcomer. ”

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little bad, Ripple hurriedly explained, "I brought him here this time to introduce him to the third lady, you also know, the number of inspectors has been too small recently, and those who are unqualified can't be recruited randomly." ”

"Well, that's true, but...... Ah, boy. ”

After staring at Beidou for a long time, the old man smiled meaningfully, "The body is quite good, but the spirit is a little worse." Recent...... Did something good happen to you?"

Meddlesome...... Good thing! Good health, not enough spirit...... Isn't this the situation I have been doing recently? My body and senses have been strengthened by well water, but the soul stuffed in this body is still the original "Beidou". It's like the configuration of the computer has been upgraded, but the system is still the old version.

But the matter of the gods is absolutely secret, and even if he is killed, he can't tell it, and the best way is to find some reason to fool him......

"Ahh......h It's the old man, I've said a lot. ”

Just when Beidou clenched his fists, intending to find a decent reason to prevaricate, the old man suddenly laughed. The sharp gaze that looked at Beidou disappeared as soon as he turned around.

"Anyway, old man, I'll take the two of you to the flower hall to sit down, please. ”
