Chapter 6: The Mysterious Old Man

The next morning, Rushuang was bending down to fiddle with the food on the table, a wisp of green silk covering her face, and she was wearing a close-fitting embroidered dress. Although he gave birth to two sons, he still has a face like a peach blossom, a slender waist like a willow, and a charm.

Rushuang glanced at Yi Feng, who walked in from the main entrance, and smiled: "Tianhao, Xue'er is gone?"

"Why, weren't you reluctant at first, why are you in such a good mood today?" Yi Feng walked in and sat down at the table. Looking at Rushuang's smiling face, he said with a little surprise.

"I thought about it all night yesterday, and I figured it out, the children have all grown up, what is not worth being happy about? Tianqi should also finish practicing, see Tianqi? It's time to eat. Rushuang grinned, set the dishes, and sat down.

"Well, isn't this coming?" Yi Feng pointed outward.

A small black figure in the distance walked slowly, seemingly far away, and it only took a breath to reach the door.

"When I went to Grandpa Yun's place, I met Steward Li, and Steward Li said that Grandpa Yun sent Sister Tianxue to school, are the eldest brothers and sisters leaving? Why don't you finish breakfast before leaving?" Steward Li told him that Yi Tianhao was also gone, and Tianqi was a little depressed and a little difficult to accept.

The relationship between him and Yi Tianhao is more than that of ordinary brothers, but now the eldest brother left without even saying hello, as for Yi Tianxue, although he often quarrels with her, Tianqi's heart is still very reluctant.

"Well, the third uncle is in a bit of a hurry to go back, so he left without breakfast, now that they have grown up and have their own things to do, they can't always play with you, when you grow up, your father will let you go on a wandering, and then you can go to them" Yi Feng, as Yi Tianqi's father, naturally knew that the relationship between the three of them was very good, such as Xue and Tianhao saying goodbye to him today, it is normal for Tianqi to feel a little uncomfortable.

"Don't stand, let's eat" Rushuang pulled Tianqi who was standing at the door and changed the topic.

The three children were separated, and their reluctance was like frost in their eyes, and they couldn't bear it in their hearts, but Rushuang clearly understood that this was the road they had to go through in the process of growing up, and what they should go through was always going through, and more interference would affect their healthy growth.

......

Since Yi Tianhao and Yi Tianxue left, Tianqi's life has become monotonous again, and the days always move forward, and in a blink of an eye, Tianqi is seven years old.

On this morning, the eastern sky had not yet turned red, and Tianqi ran to the boulder in the back mountain to practice as usual.

On the boulder, the young man sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, his eyes slightly closed, his hands in front of him, his chest rose and fell slightly, and between exhaling and inhaling, the light cyan aura in the sky slowly flowed towards a small black dot, with a faint light cyan air flow along his mouth and nose, burrowing into his body, warming his bones and flesh, and then there was a trace of slightly cyan turbid gas exhaled from the tip of his nose.

After a long time, the young man slowly raised his hands, took a deep breath, slowly lowered his hands again, and exhaled softly. The eyes opened, and a trace of purple instantly appeared in the dark eyes, which dissipated again.

"Today's morning practice is finished, and it seems that I have improved a lot. Feeling that the aura in his body was a lot thicker, Tianqi said excitedly.

Just when Tianqi was excited, an old man's voice came from not far behind.

"Little doll, if you want to break through to the next level with your spiritual cultivation speed, even if it doesn't take a year, it will take several months, and this spiritual cultivation speed can only be described in four words: surprisingly slow."

Hearing others belittle themselves like this, I'm afraid anyone will be unbearable, and at this moment, Tianqi's face suddenly changed, suddenly turned around, and glanced around vigilantly, when he saw an old man behind him who was wearing a black robe, and had never met but was full of smiles and kindness, he couldn't help suppressing the anger in his heart, and after all, there was an old man standing in front of him.

"Who are you?"

"It's just an old man, don't panic", the old man in black smiled, and continued: "If you have to know my name, just call me Xuan Lao."

Tianqi saw that the old man had no malicious intentions, so he bowed politely, no matter how he said that there was an elder in front of him, it was good to be polite.

"Tianqi meets Xuan Lao".

It's just that Tianqi secretly thought in surprise: "How come I have never heard of the name Xuan Lao?"

However, there is no nervousness on Tianqi's face, Tianqi knows that he can stand behind him silently, and his strength must be extraordinary, if the old man in front of him wants to harm himself, he doesn't need to make these fame at all, he can put himself to death with just a finger, so obviously, this old man has no intention of harming himself, and he has never lived with him, no matter what, this old man will not bully people for no reason, and he is still bullying the small.

Xuan Lao couldn't help but smile when he saw Tianqi's unslighted feelings, sighed softly, and said, "You are from the Yi clan, your name is Yi Tianqi, right?"

"My surname is not Yi, it seems that I have nothing to do with your predecessors, right?", before knowing the purpose of the old man in front of him coming to find him, Tianqi didn't want to clearly reveal his identity, after all, this issue not only involved him personally, but also involved his own family, in case this old man in black had a grudge against his family, it would not be good.

Although Yi Tianqi is usually like ordinary children, he loves to play and make trouble, but when he encounters something important, he will appear very mature and serious.

"Hehe, little guy, you're quite alert, I know your background clearly, the purpose of my appearance here is not to do anything to you, and I don't have any deep hatred with the current Yi clan, so you don't have to worry", Xuan Lao has lived for so many years, and he can naturally see Yi Tianqi's little tricks, but he is still quite happy, because the person he likes has a good mind, not a dull person.

When Tianqi heard this, his heart was also a little lighter, after all, this old man was not like an evil person, and he only gave people the feeling of being kind like an old man.

It's just that at this moment, Tianqi's eyes suddenly shrank, his eyeballs flowed, and he asked a little vigilantly: "Xuan senior, why do you say that you don't have a deep hatred with the current Yi clan, do you have all kinds of relationships with the previous Yi clan? Of course, I think even if the seniors have any festivals with the ancestors, presumably the seniors are also a large number of adults, and they don't remember it in their hearts for a long time, right?"

Tianqi dared to ask like this, firstly, because Tianqi was curious about why Xuan Lao said this, and secondly, Tianqi thought that since this old man had said so, even if this old man had any holidays with his ancestors, it should have passed, and he would not care about it anymore.

However, the reason why Tianqi asked like this is mainly out of consideration for the safety of the family, if there is really a holiday, Tianqi hopes to take this opportunity to resolve this potential danger.

"You will naturally know this when you have the strength in the future, no need to ask, you just need to remember that I will not harm you Yi clan", when Tianqi asked that, his expression did not change much, but the cat in it still did not hide from Xuan Lao's eyes.

can be so smart, even Xuan Lao secretly laughed in his heart: It's really an elf ghost.

"Then may I ask the seniors to come this time, I don't know what is going on?", Tianqi saw that Xuan Lao did not answer directly, so he knew that it was useless to ask more, so he changed the topic.

"Hehe, I happened to be passing by here, and I saw that your cultivation speed was too slow, and I wanted to help you. Xuan Lao also came back from his memory, looked at Tianqi, and replied with a smile.

"Help me?" Tianqi said in surprise, no matter how smart he was, he never thought that Xuan Lao would say this, there is no pie falling in this world, what kind of medicine is sold in this old man's gourd?

"Of course, that's the first thing, and the second thing is to ask you to do me a favor. Xuan Lao also knew that with Yi Tianqi's intelligence, he would definitely wonder if there was any trap in this matter, so he added.

"Senior, what are you kidding, what can I help you?" This made Tianqi even more puzzled, he was only seven years old, he was not rich, and he had no ability, what could he help?

"I'm an old man who doesn't know how many years I've lived, how could I joke with you, a stinky little hairy kid?"

"Senior Xuan, I didn't mean that, it's just that I really can't think of anything I can do to help my senior," Tianqi also quickly explained.

"Don't worry about this, I won't ask you to do bad things, what I hate most in my life are those people with bad intentions", Xuan Lao said this, a trace of disdain and sadness flashed in his cloudy black eyes, and then he continued, "You go back first, come here at this time tomorrow, and I will tell you something." ”

"But senior, the words are still clear" Tianqi is not familiar with this old man, and secondly, he doesn't know what kind of person he is, and the matter is not explained, which makes people unable to put their minds at ease.

"It's a good thing for you, as for what's going on, you'll know when you come tomorrow, will I, the old man, harm you?" said Xuan Lao a little unpleasantly.

"Yes, senior", Tianqi also readily agreed, since the old man said that it was a good thing for him, there should be no problem.

"Also, remember, you must not say anything about the matter between us, and don't mention me in front of anyone, remember that no one is allowed to tell him about me and you", after speaking, he didn't wait for Tianqi to come back to his senses, Xuan Lao was like air, and disappeared in an instant, which made Tianqi stunned for a while, if it weren't for the old man's voice still ringing in the hollow, Tianqi would really think that he was dreaming.

"Senior Xuan, I promise you won't say it" Tianqi shouted at Konggu, and then he was stunned for a while before he cleared his mind and went home.
