Chapter 56: Uncle Zhou
At this time, there was silence on the city wall.
Countless people opened their mouths wide to look at the young man walking on the beast tide in the distance, with shock in their eyes, and even a trace of fear.
Of course, they had seen the scene where Zhou Yuntian and Kang Tao, two Sky Realm powerhouses, teamed up to rescue, and they also saw the scene where Xue Yi fell into the dampness. At that moment, they all felt that the latter was dead, and there was no hope of survival. However, at this moment, Xue Yi staged a desperate situation for them.
"Hurry up and release the rope!" Seeing that Xue Yi had already run to the city, someone on the city finally reacted, and a long rope was thrown out. Seeing this, Xue Yi also instantly understood, jumped up, and flew to grab the end of the rope.
"Come on!" Seeing Xue Yi grab the rope, the people in the city immediately recovered the rope. I saw Xue Yi rising rapidly in the air, and at the same time, the direction of the beast tide chasing from the city was also firing ten thousand arrows.
"Roar-" Although the beasts hated Xue Yi who escaped, they were already in decline, and they could only roar helplessly under this volley of arrows, turning their heads and running into the distance.
"Huh-" Xue Yi had just landed at the top of the city, and before he could catch his breath, he heard cheers like a tidal wave ring around him. Xue Yi was helpless, so he had to hold on to his body that was about to collapse and try to stand up straight, and hugged his fists around to thank him. He knew that the cheers of the people were from the heart, admiration for him, and applause for the performance he had just near-lived.
"Knock-" A streamer swept by, and Zhou Yuntian fell heavily on the top of the city. As soon as he landed, Zhou Shang pounced and hugged Xue Yi.
"Okay, it's okay. I know you thought I was almost dead. Isn't this good? and performed a narrow escape!" Xue Yi comforted Zhou Shang with excitement.
"Are you...... Xue Yi?" Zhou Yuntian saw Xue Yi up close at this moment, and saw that Zhou Shang had such a close relationship with him, so he spoke with some hesitation. He really didn't dare to admit it. In his impression, Xue Yi was still the cowardly and weak teenager, and his face was still green. And standing in front of him at this time was a young man with a lofty appearance, whose face had long since lost its original youthfulness, and only confidence and sunshine.
"Exactly the boy. Lord Zhou, I would also like to thank you for your kindness half a year ago. When Xue Yi heard this, he hurriedly let go of Zhou Shang and bowed to Zhou Yuntian and said.
"Yes...... But didn't you not practice at that time?Your physique is ......" Zhou Yuntian said this, and also realized that this matter should not be leaked, and quickly stopped his words.
"yes, it was. However, as the saying goes, there is no way to go. I didn't believe in this fate, and I searched everywhere for a way to solve it, and finally it was another village. Xue Yi smiled.
When Zhou Yuntian heard this, he also knew that this was not the place to speak, so he hurriedly led Xue Yi down to the city.
"Dad, this time, I was reckless, and I almost killed Xue Yi for me. Shang'er knew that she was guilty and asked her father to punish her. At this time, Zhou Shang suddenly knelt in front of Zhou Yuntian and lowered his head. He really regretted his decision to come here in the first place. He knew that if he died in battle, he would only have regrets, but not regrets, but if Xue Yi was involved because of himself, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
Looking at Zhou Yuntian's uncertain complexion, Xue Yi hurriedly spoke: "Lord Zhou, I am also to blame for this matter." If it weren't for the fact that I had a hot brain and agreed to the little boy's request, he would not have fallen into such a dangerous situation, and he was not lightly injured because of it. It was our duty to protect him. Besides, Lord Zhou, Zhou Shang is here to prove himself to you, to help you resist the beast tide, and do your part. I hope that the Lord of the Zhou Mansion can understand his intentions, and also understand his injuries, and don't punish him. ”
When Zhou Yuntian heard this, he was silent for a long time before he sighed and said, "I understand what you mean, and I will spare him once." However, I don't blame you for this, besides, you saved Shang'er's life in that situation, which is not only a fault but a lot of grace to me, so there is no need to be presumptuous. However, Zhou Shang acted recklessly, did not think about the consequences, and it was difficult for him to remember it without teaching him a lesson. Let's put this matter aside for a moment. Now that it is the time of war, you are guilty of meritorious service. If you do well in the next battle, this matter will be written off, if not, when this is over, you will be counted with the old and new accounts, don't you hear!"
The last two sentences were obviously said to Zhou Shang. Zhou Shang saw Xue Yi interceding for himself, and quickly nodded yes, and was immediately helped down by Kang Tao to rest and treat. And Xue Yi also followed Zhou Yuntian down the city wall in the admiring and envious eyes of the people in the city.
In a hut under the city wall, Zhou Yuntian politely invited Xue Yi to sit down. Xue Yi was also polite before sitting down first. But he didn't expect that as soon as he sat down and looked up, he saw Zhou Yuntian leaning over and bowing down to him.
"Mansion Master Zhou, what do you mean?" Xue Yi hurriedly got up and wanted to help Zhou Yuntian up, but the latter stubbornly fell to the ground: "Master Xue, it is difficult to repay the grace of saving the son this time. Childe can make any request, as long as my Zhou family can handle it, he will definitely not say a word!"
"Lord Zhou, where is this. Although Zhou Shang and I are in a master-servant relationship, the little boy treats me like a brother. He was the one who led me on the path of spiritual practice, and it was he who gave me the most precious encouragement and the most sincere support when I was most desperate. If there was no little boy, there would be no Xue Yi today. Although I, Xue Yi, have not yet reached the age of the crown, I also understand the principle of repaying kindness. The little boy treats me like a mountain, and I deserve to repay it with my life. All this is what I should do, and I will not have any requirements from you and the Zhou Mansion. Besides, I was able to awaken the natal element at the beginning, and I was also supported by you and Hua Lao, otherwise how could I be where I am today?" Xue Yi took two steps back, knelt on one knee, and hugged his fist at Zhou Yuntian.
Zhou Yuntian stood up from the ground at this time, and at the same time helped Xue Yi with both hands, and sighed: "Don't do your own work, don't be able to do it." He is very talented, and he has excellent understanding. Xue Gongzi, how good it would be if my Zhou family could have a child like you! Although Shang'er's talent is not weak, she is far inferior to you in terms of heart. If he can have half of your advantages, I can also trust the Zhou Mansion to him. ”
"Lord Zhou, Zhou Shang actually has a lot of advantages, but he hasn't discovered them yet. I believe that he will definitely grow into a pillar of talent in the future. Xue Yi said sincerely.
"Well, you don't have to say this to comfort me. Zhou Yuntian smiled and shook his head.
"Mansion Master Zhou, there is one thing, I wonder if Mansion Master Zhou can agree?" After a pause, Xue Yi suddenly spoke.
"Oh, what's the matter?" Zhou Yuntian immediately asked.
"Lord Zhou, I have lived in the Zhou family for many years, and I have long regarded it as my own home. Zhou Shang treats me like his own brother, and I am not much different in age from him. If you don't dislike me, Lord Zhou, then treat me as a member of the Zhou family!" Xue Yi turned to face Zhou Yuntian, there was no coy in his eyes, only the most sincere feelings.
"Yes, yes, yes! Of course I agree. As long as you don't think my Zhou Mansion is small, and you don't think my Mansion is weak, this Zhou Mansion will always be your home. The door of the Zhou Mansion is always open for you, and I can always provide you with everything. When Zhou Yuntian heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly said.
"Lord Xie Zhou!" Xue Yi immediately knelt on the ground and clenched his fists with both hands.
"Hurry up. From now on, you don't want the Lord of the Zhou Mansion or the Lord of the Zhou Mansion to call me. If you'd like, you could call me uncle, okay?"
"Uncle Zhou!" Xue Yi immediately spoke.
"Haha, I didn't expect that I, Zhou Yuntian, would have such a virtuous nephew as you in my lifetime!" Zhou Yuntian looked up to the sky and laughed.
"Uncle Zhou, don't call me Gongzi in the future, how awkward it is, just call me Xue Yi, or Yizi!" Xue Yi said with a smile.
