Chapter 4: The Test of the Family
"Hey, Ink Dye City, ...... the hell" The car suddenly stopped in front of a silver-gray castle far away from the city, Xia Mingxi, who had messy hair, was dazed for a while, and then stared at Ink Dye City angrily. Even if he is her savior, he can't run away with her without knowing her!! She just wanted to continue to say something, but she heard Mo Dye Cheng say, "Shut up." Then he got out of the car, put his hands in his pockets, looked at the door, turned to Xia Mingxi and said, "Get out of the car and follow me." ”
Xia Mingxi looked at the back of him walking, her eyes rolled, and she just wanted to get out of the car and escape, but Mo Dye Cheng seemed to think of something, and turned her head and smiled at her: "By the way, this place is surrounded by forests on all sides, and it is 600 kilometers away from the nearest town, and there will be no vehicles passing by here, so ...... If you want to escape, it's basically impossible. Xia Mingxi looked at the gentle (treacherous) soft (deceitful) face of the ink dyeing city, and the back was numb, looked at the castle with no end in sight, and then looked at the gloomy and endless forest around her, so she could only follow hard.
After entering the mansion, the first thing they entered was the main house (that is, the welcome living room), which was very dark, and there were only dozens of unlit candlesticks in the huge living room and the big main lamp on the ceiling, making it difficult to see the surroundings clearly.
Suddenly, all the candlesticks and small lamps, as well as the main lamp, all lit up with a "suddenly" sound, and the ink dyeing city and Xia Mingxi were flashed by the sudden light for a moment, and after they got used to the light, when they opened their eyes, the first thing that caught their eyes was the crowd of people neatly arranged on both sides, most of them looked no more than twenty years old, and their eyes were staring at the ink dyeing city tightly...... Xia Mingxi behind him.
At this time, a hoarse* old man's voice sounded: "Mo family, the 250th patriarch candidate Mo Dye City, the family rules that outsiders are not allowed to enter the family, let alone let outsiders know the secrets of the family. Otherwise, the minor case will be disqualified from the candidacy and will be placed in the punishment space for three months; in the worst case, the whole body cultivation will be abolished, expelled from the house, and left to fend for itself. You...... Convictable. The voice was made by an old man in a gray-brown robe, (Mo Yu Shen, the grandfather of Mo Dye City) Although he looked old, his back was straight. On either side of him were two well-groomed middle-aged women and men, with their hands behind their backs and serious faces.
Mo Dye Cheng frowned, folded his hands, and said coldly: "Tell the head of the family, the younger generation doesn't know." ”
"You...... What do you look like...... Don't you take me seriously!" Mo Yu's heavy old face darkened, his eyes narrowed, even his beard was cocked angrily, his big hand slapped on the marble table in front of him, and a domineering and powerful coercion surrounded everyone, except for the four people standing behind him, the others were all crushed to the ground, foaming at the mouth, in pain. Even Ink Dye Cheng was pressed and spit out a mouthful of blood, and the strange thing was that Xia Mingxi was not affected at all, but no one noticed her at this time.
Mo Dye Cheng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and continued: "The juniors don't dare. The family rules also wrote that if a foreigner wants to enter the clan to practice spirituality, as long as he is recommended by the disciples in the clan first, and then passes the trial of the family, he can have the opportunity to enter the clan and practice spirituality, besides, this is ...... There is a precedent, right? Grandmother...... No, the lady of the house, she is also a foreigner, isn't she?"
Mo Yushen put away his coercion and snorted coldly, the people in the hall didn't dare to make a sound, for fear of provoking the head of the family who was angry, "Hmph, okay, I can allow her to join the clan, as long as she can pass the level designed by me and a few elders, okay, the meeting will be dismissed, and tomorrow, there will be a trial." After Mo Yushen said this, he left in a hurry, everyone was very puzzled, thinking that he had something important, but in fact, he just remembered that the time to play chess with his daughter-in-law had come. (Oh Roar Roar Roar Roar ~~ )
Even the head of the house is gone, and the others have no intention of staying where they are, and they all return to the room one after another [Note: Everyone has an exclusive room], and the entire living room is deserted, leaving only Xia Mingxi and Ink Dye City. An awkward atmosphere surrounds the two.
"Hey, can you tell me first, what's going on here? Xia Mingxi was the first to speak.
Ink-dyed Cheng pursed his lips, "This...... I'll tell you when you've succeeded in your trial. You just need to know that this will do you no good. ”
"That'...... Why are you protecting me, we ...... I've only known each other for less than a day. Although I have lost most of my memory, your actions and my instincts tell me that we didn't know each other before. Xia Mingxi remembered that Ink Dye City had just been threatened by the head of the family for her.
"You don't have to worry about that. ”
"But ......"
"Here's the key to your room, in room 307, go rest, tomorrow you'll have a bad fight. Ink Dye City threw a crystal blue key to Xia Mingxi, and left on his own. Only Xia Mingxi was left alone in a daze.
She stayed where she was for a short while, and then set off to find her room.
---------- Dividing Line----------
"Damn, why is this castle so big!" Xia Mingxi held the key and climbed four towers, from the first floor to the twelfth floor, but she didn't find it, she sat down casually on the steps, drooping and retreating, looking at the sky weakly...... It must have been the starry sky, and it was already 9 o'clock in the evening, and she looked up again, and her eyes suddenly lit up, but soon it darkened again, because she was surprised to find that room 304 was at the top, [the highest building was the twelfth floor, and she was now on the third floor], she resigned herself to her fate, and when she reached the room, she found the bed without even changing her clothes, so she lay down and fell asleep.
In the ink-dyed city in his room, he held a pink cherry blossom headband in his hand, and looked at a photo in his hand stupidly, the woman who took the photo with him, she smiled brightly, like a ray of sunshine.
This...... Won't let you run away again...... Even though...... Just a substitute......
