At three o'clock the next day, Xiao Cong finished his morning class in the middle building of the Holy City, and after hurriedly freshening up, he came to Xiao Tianyu's residence with the old monster, on a winter morning, it was hazy and bright at this time, in order to cover people's eyes and ears, the old monster turned into a fiery red beast and was carried into Xiao Tianyu's temporary residence by Xiao Cong, I don't know if this is a grievance for a person of a handful of age.

Xiao Cong pushed the door in, and at first glance he saw Steward Qin and his father sitting next to the small square table at the end of the corridor, there was a pot of fire on the table, and above the fire was Shi Wei, which had not yet boiled, and there was a pot of four bowls on the small square table.

After the old monster broke free from Xiao Cong's arms, he jumped to the ground and turned into a human form, Xiao Tianyu and Steward Qin got up at the same time, bowed down and said:

"The junior Xiao Tianyu (Qin Xiaofeng) has seen the senior. ”

After finishing speaking, he got up, Xiao Tianyu had a smile on his face, and Steward Qin was expressionless.

The old monster is still the same, tall and big, red-haired, withdrawn, elusive, and suspicious are all written on his face, but he indirectly shows the fear and inferiority complex in his heart, he tilted his head slightly, and looked at the two of them with a condescending attitude:

"I haven't seen you for many years, I can't imagine that you have become the head of the Xiao family, and you, it seems that your status in the Xiao family is not low. ”

In the hazy light before dawn, Xiao Tianyu's smile deepened, and when he looked at Steward Qin again, his expression was a little nervous.

"Yes, senior, after so many years, don't come unharmed. Xiao Tianyu said with a rare philistine spirit on weekdays.

"Hehe, it's okay, it's okay, it's not harmful, I won't come to you Patriarch Xiao......"

............

Xiao Cong watched from the sidelines, feeling that the atmosphere was delicate,

"It turns out that there is really such a past between my father, Uncle Qin, and the old monster, but what is the process of this matter? Anyway, it is said that my father lost the "Array Puppet Secret Method" and did not run away. ”

He continued to listen quietly.

"The seniors are still used to living in Xiao'er's place, and if there is any neglect, I hope you don't want to be surprised. ”

The old monster snorted,

"Those who are used to living underground are used to living wherever they live on the ground, and the patriarch of Lao Xiao bothered. ”

Xiao Tianyu smiled, his face did not change,

"Well, that's good, Xiao Cong, this kid is meticulous and meticulous, and he will definitely not neglect his predecessors, after all, he is a child of the Xiao family, besides, this is my Xiao Tianyu's son. ”

The old monster's pupils shrank, his eyes almost narrowed into a slit, he looked at Xiao Tianyu motionlessly, and said calmly:

"Son, you dare to mention your son to me! Xiao Tianyu, you dare to mention your son to me!"

"What's wrong?" Xiao Tianyu's face was calm, and his tone was unfazed.

"How my son died, you Xiao Tianyu know best!" the old monster gritted his teeth, almost squeezing out these words from between his teeth.

Steward Qin suddenly stepped forward and said sharply:

"I killed your son, what does it matter to my master!"

The old monster stared at Steward Qin fiercely with murderous intent in his eyes, and did not speak for a long time.

Xiao Tianyu's face was still calm, and he patted

patted Steward Qin on the shoulder and motioned for him to go to the back, Steward Qin understood, glanced at the old monster deeply, and then stood back, but heard Xiao Tianyu say faintly:

"Yes, if it weren't for me, your son wouldn't have died at the hands of Lao Qin, you can also think that I killed your son, what, are you going to kill my son?" Xiao Tianyu's gaze suddenly turned cold, and even the air around him seemed to be a little colder.

The delicate atmosphere became colder and colder, and at last at this time the invisible ice froze several people, the sky became brighter and brighter, the water in the stone on the stove began to boil, and the steaming heat became clearer and clearer in the faint morning light.

Half a day.

"That's it," the old monster finally sighed slightly, "this is karma, if my son's revenge was avenged, I'm afraid I will end up with a bad death in the future, that's it, that's it, the past is with the wind, just let it go." ”

The old monster slowly lowered his head, his red beard was windless, and at this moment, Xiao Cong felt the vicissitudes of life for the first time from this guy.

Xiao Tianyu's gaze also regained a little warmth at this moment, the corners of his mouth hooked a seemingly nonexistent arc, and a long breath was vaguely exhaled, only Steward Qin, looking at the old monster with a cold gaze, a look of indignation.

The sky was bright, and the boiling water in the stone finally opened the stone cover, and flowed down the stone wall in a fluttering sound, against the red coals, and then made a burst of "zila, zila" sounds, Xiao Tianyu looked up at the sky, and said to the old monster:

"Senior, it's almost time, let's get ready to enter the battle. ”

The old monster turned into a red beast, Xiao Tianyu closed his eyes gently, and after a while, he only heard Xiao Tianyu's order, "Enter the formation!" The red beast jumped up without hesitation and flew into the formation like a runaway fire meteor.

The light is emerging.

"Let's go, there's nothing left for us here. ”

Xiao Tianyu flicked his sleeves and said to Xiao Qin and the others casually, and then took the lead in turning around and walking towards the inner courtyard.

Xiao Cong raised his eyes to look at Steward Qin, and found that the latter was still looking at the old monster in the formation from afar with a somewhat murderous gaze.

"Uncle Doesn't want to take advantage of this to rush into battle and kill the old monster," he thought to himself, sticking out his tongue, "he probably wouldn't do that." ”

made up his mind, and hurriedly took a step towards his father, thinking as he walked,

"Even my uncle has lost his temper, this beam was deep enough back then, I have to ask my father when I go back, what's going on......"

Steward Qin was the last to return to the study in the inner courtyard, he held an iron shelf, on which were placed the stove, Shi Wei and a tea set, his face was as usual, he thought that nothing bad should have happened, he put the iron shelf on the ground, and then placed the stove, Shi Wei and Yi Ying tea set on the shelf on another small square table next to Xiao Tianyu's desk, and finally lit a sandalwood incense on the northwest side of the study, Xiao Cong suddenly found that in the huge house, there was not even a single subordinate, and all affairs were taken care of by Steward Qin,

In Xiao Cong's opinion, this is really unseemly and even contrary to the theory of the head of the clan, which is simply unacceptable!

He sat down on the chair closest to the desk on the south side of the study, leaned forward, and said:

"Father, why don't you even have a subordinate in this yard, how can Uncle Qin take care of this huge yard alone. ”

Xiao Tianyu smiled,

"Isn't there still me, I take care of the flowers and plants outside this door. ”

"You...... Why don't you move to the Xiao Family Inn, there are still two people waiting there, and it will definitely be more comfortable than you live here. ”

Xiao Tianyu shook his head,

"No, it's still comfortable, it's clean, it's relaxing. ”

"Well, you reminded me that when the old beast is well, he should be left here to do chores for me for a few days, and he can't be poisoned in vain. He added half-jokingly like an old child.

Xiao Cong: "......"

"Father, you and your predecessors should be old acquaintances. ”

"Well," Xiao Tianyu nodded noncommittally, "It was more than twenty years ago, and I think back then, I was still a hairy boy." ”

Xiao Cong didn't speak, and looked at Xiao Tianyu with a strange smile on his face, who smiled and said:

"That year, I traveled to Xuanzhen, incarnated as a healer, and was caught by the flame-loving beast by chance, and they asked me to use your Uncle Qin as a medicine guide to treat the dying little son of the old flame-loving beast. ”

"Before leaving, Uncle Qin slaughtered other people's sons?"

"Well, young and vigorous, strong in blood, understandable. Xiao Tianyu looked calm.

"Hurtful things like them, they are innocent of death!" Steward Qin stopped what he was doing and said hatefully.

Xiao Tianyu glanced at Steward Qin lightly, still looking calm, but the more calm it is, the more it makes people have an unfathomable feeling, Xiao Cong watched from the side, and felt silently in his heart, he felt that he saw the vast and boundless sky in his father's eyes, blue as a wash, and quiet as a sword, this is a kind of cultivation that cannot be achieved by cultivation alone, or is it a realm, a realm that is difficult for ordinary people to reach.

"Everyone has his own life, this is his life, even if Uncle Qin didn't kill him back then, the poor worm wouldn't be alive now. Xiao Cong said.
