"Senior brother, there is nothing to do in the martial arts hall now, I plan to go home first. ”

When he went down to the martial arts hall, Qiao Xiu remembered that he had been in the martial arts hall for several days in a row, so he opened his mouth to greet Yang Ye and prepared to go home.

"Okay, then you can go back first. ”

Hearing Qiao Xiu say that he wanted to go home, Yang Ye naturally had no opinion.

Now that Ling Junzi is gone, it also means that the troubles encountered by the martial arts hall this time have come to an end.

The martial arts hall is temporarily closed, and Qiao Xiu has nothing else to do except cultivate while staying here.

Compared to cultivation, Yang Ye understood that Qiao Xiu wanted to go home and reunite with his relatives at this moment.

Not only Qiao Xiu, but also himself?

If it weren't for contacting other martial arts instructors and discussing with them when the martial arts hall would reopen, Yang Ye himself wanted to rush to his father-in-law's house immediately to take his wife and children home.

"Then I'll go first, senior brother, you should go back early, sister-in-law, they should miss you too." ”

Seeing that Yang Ye had no opinion, Qiao Xiu prepared to leave, and did not forget to remind Yang Ye to go home early before leaving.

"Got it, I'll go back when I'm done with this. ”

Yang Ye motioned for Qiao Xiu to go first, and then began to pick up his mobile phone to contact the coaches of the martial arts hall.

Seeing this, Qiao Xiu didn't say anything, turned around and left the martial arts hall.

"Nobita, I'm going home now, you stay up there. If you are hungry, go out of town to forage for food and stay safe. Out of the Eight Desolations Mansion, Qiao Xiu sent a message to Nobita on the rooftop.

Although Nobita, as his contract pet, had already been officially registered, Qiao Xiu decided to leave it here instead of riding it through the center of Maocheng City back to the neighborhood where his eldest brother lived, so as not to disturb others.

At the same time, in order to cultivate Nobita's ability to survive independently in the wild, Qiao Xiu gradually stopped feeding it artificially, but let it hunt and forage in the wild by itself.

This is very helpful for restoring Nobita's instinct as a foreign beast and improving its flight ability and combat ability.

Nobita was a little resistant to this at first, because it was originally evolved from a domestic rooster and was used to being fed, and was later recovered by Qiao Xiu and then raised by Qiao Xiu's barbecue, so he was reluctant to hunt by himself and then drink blood and eat raw meat.

Fortunately, after Qiao Xiu's training, coupled with the further awakening of the wild nature after advancing to the transcendent second order, Nobita finally slowly accepted this arrangement.

The condition is that Qiao Xiu should treat it with some barbecue from time to time when he has free time.

Regarding Nobita's small request, Qiao Xiu also readily agreed.

"Got it, master. But you have to come back to see me sooner, or I'll go and look for you myself." ”

Hearing Qiao Xiu's summons, Nobita immediately responded.

"Okay, I see. ”

After explaining Nobita, Qiao Xiu has nothing to do, and he can go home with confidence.

"Hey, Dad, it's me, have you bought vegetables and cooked?"

Qiao Xiu stopped a taxi, got in the car, and called his father to see if it was still early.

He hadn't been home for a few days, and now he wants to have a meal with his family.

Although it would be troublesome for his current appetite to ask his father or mother to cook a meal that would fill him, it didn't matter, he just needed a little restraint.

Anyway, reuniting with family is the point, and eating is just a process of enjoying the warmth of family.

It doesn't matter if you don't have enough to eat, just find some food to replenish afterwards.

"Not yet, it's just right for you to go home, I'll let your mother and your second sister come over and eat together." I haven't seen you for a few days, and everyone misses you. ”

Father Qiao was naturally very happy when he heard that Qiao Xiu was already on his way home.

He was just about to go downstairs to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, and now Qiao Xiu was coming back, and the family happened to have a reunion dinner together.

"Well, I miss you too. ”

Regarding his father's proposal, Qiao Xiu naturally raised his hands in agreement.

Others don't know that he has experienced life and death in the past few days.

Looking back, if it weren't for Ling Junzi's kindness and principle, he might not have been able to successfully complete the breakthrough. If you don't complete the breakthrough, you will naturally not be the opponent of Lingjunzi.

If Lingjunzi is worse, or simply comes to seek revenge, they are estimated to be unspared.

Even so, it is very dangerous to face the strange demon of Shanghetian in the back.

If it weren't for the existence of Xiaohui in his soul space, it is estimated that he would inevitably have the tragic fate of being devoured by his soul like Liang Hao.

Because of this, even if it has only been a few days, Qiao Xiu now has a feeling of returning to his heart.

"Okay, then I'll call your mother and your second sister later, go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables together, and by the way, inform his eldest brother to come back for a meal." ”

......

The father and son then chatted briefly, and the father hung up the phone excitedly to buy groceries and prepare.

Qiao Xiu was full of joy and looked forward to arriving home early, and even opened his mouth to remind the taxi driver to hurry up.

Originally, it was quite annoying to be disturbed and urged, but the taxi driver looked through the rearview mirror at Qiao Xiu's strong body that was about to fill most of the rear compartment, and he didn't even dare to let out a fart, so he could only speed up the car with a shy smile, and he was still worried in his heart, afraid that Qiao Xiu would be dissatisfied.

Fortunately, Qiao Xiu didn't have the ability to read minds, otherwise he couldn't help but cry out when he saw the taxi driver's inner thoughts.

Come on, although he is strong and tough, he has never been a bully of the weak.

In this way, after Qiao Xiu's casual reminder, the taxi driver took the initiative to speed up to the limit of the traffic rules under an invisible pressure.

As a result, Qiao Xiu arrived at the gate of the community where the eldest brother lived nearly five minutes earlier than normal.

"Master, how much?"

Before getting out of the car, Qiao Xiu took out his wallet and planned to pay the fare.

"Uh...... Hey, this, this big brother, it's not very far anyway, if you want, or forget the fare......"

Although Qiao Xiu's tone was very friendly and kind all the way, he was shocked by his huge body and invisible momentum, coupled with the various pictures about Qiao Xiu's identity and image made up by himself along the way, the taxi driver was so scared that he didn't dare to charge Qiao Xiu's fare.

"Hey, what kind of stupid thing to say, how can there be a reason not to pay for a car. Big brother, do you think I'm like the kind of person who rides in the overlord's car? Hurry up, how much is it, I'm in a hurry to go home. ”

After listening to the taxi driver's words, and seeing his trembling face with a hint of fear, Qiao Xiu immediately remembered the scene when he met the third elementary school of the Chen family who took a taxi out of Maocheng from Gaocheng.

Dare to be affectionate or caused by his body and temperament, which makes him feel a little helpless and crying and laughing.

Obviously he is a good young man, but because he is in too good shape, he has to be misunderstood repeatedly, which is really ......

Helpless, Qiao Xiu didn't mean to embarrass the taxi driver, and continued to ask him how much the fare was.

"Oh, twenty-one, you can make it up for me, twenty dollars. ”

When Qiao Xiu said this, the taxi driver didn't dare to object, and quickly reported the fare, and finally didn't forget to charge Qiao Xiu a dollar.

To put it bluntly, he was still so frightened by Qiao Xiu that Qiao Xiu was what he said.

"Okay, then thank you, give, it's twenty dollars. ”

Seeing him like this, Qiao Xiu didn't say anything, took out a piece of twenty yuan from his wallet and handed it over.

After giving the money, Qiao Xiu didn't talk nonsense, and directly opened the car door and got out of the car.

"You walk slowly. ”

After he got out of the car, the taxi driver said something cautiously.

In this regard, Qiao Xiu could only shrug his shoulders helplessly, waved his hand, and strode away without looking back.

Rumble!

He hadn't gone far when he heard the roar of a huge car engine behind him.

When I looked back, I saw that it was the taxi driver who started the vehicle and ran away quickly.

"Damn!"

In this regard, Qiao Xiu could only silently give the taxi driver a middle finger in his heart.

"Brother-in-law. ”

Back at the eldest brother Qiao Xiu's house, it was brother-in-law Lin Xin who opened the door.

"Ah Xiu, you're back, come in. ”

Brother-in-law Lin Xin was also happy when he saw Qiao Xiu, pulled the door aside and let him in.

"Brother-in-law, Mom and Dad haven't come back from grocery shopping yet?"

After entering the house, Qiao Xiu found that except for his brother-in-law and nephew, the others were not there.

"No, I didn't hear that you, the big stomach, are coming back for dinner, and they don't have to buy more food!haha!"

Speaking of this, Lin Xin couldn't help but laugh at Qiao Xiu.

"Hey, there's no way, after cultivating, your appetite will be bigger. However, when I advance to the third level of transcendence, I can obtain energy from the outside world at any time, and my appetite will be able to return to normal at that time. ”

Speaking of this appetite problem, Qiao Xiu himself was a little helpless.

"By the way, brother-in-law, how have you and Dad's Dou Qi breath valve been cultivating these days?

Speaking of cultivation, Qiao Xiu remembered that he had taught his father and brother-in-law Lin Xin to practice the Douqi Breathing Method before going to the Eight Desolation Martial Arts Pavilion, and couldn't help but ask.

"Not yet, I've been contemplating whenever I've had time these days, and I've found some feelings, but I've always been a little bit unable to grasp the sense of qi you said. ”

Lin Xin had just teased Qiao Xiu, and now he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he was suddenly asked about cultivation.

Putting aside the kinship, in terms of cultivation, Qiao Xiu is their master and teacher.

The current situation is equivalent to the master and teacher assigning homework to the disciples and students, and then conducting an examination of the situation after a period of time.

As a result, he didn't do well as a student, and it was inevitably a little embarrassing.

"It's okay, it's good to be able to get to the threshold in such a short period of time. When I'm free, I'll groom your and dad with a vindictive spirit, and you should be able to get started smoothly. ”

Qiao Xiu saw Lin Xin's unwanted look, and did not say anything unpleasant, but encouraged and comforted him.

"Really? That's great. ”

Hearing Qiao Xiu say something almost assured in such a firm tone, Lin Xin suddenly became happy.

As time went by, the world changed more and more obviously, and everywhere was full of dangers, and Lin Xin became more and more eager to become a powerful transcendent.

These days, too many people around the world have died because of the appearance of the space portal. Not to mention, even Maocheng and its subordinate counties and towns have tens of thousands of accidental deaths.

Their family is relatively lucky, with the protection of Qiao Xiu and Qiao Feng, two transcendent beings, and they are safe and sound for the time being.

But the feeling of being protected is not as good as the feeling of being in control of the power to protect yourself and your family.

Therefore, after being taught the Dou Qi Breathing Method by Qiao Xiu, Lin Xin cultivated very hard, only hoping to embark on the transcendent path as soon as possible.

It just so happened that due to the impact of the collapse and destruction of the previous spatial secret realm, the shop of the couple was temporarily closed, which made him have enough time to cultivate recently.

If it weren't for Qiao Xiu's previous telling them to cultivate in moderation and not to overload, he would definitely spend all his time cultivating.

In the past few days, because Qiao Xiu was not at home and it was difficult to get in touch, he was a little cursed when he couldn't find the Qi Sense Entry, and even had some self-doubt.

Now that he has Qiao Xiu's assurance, he can't be happy or unhappy.

"Well, don't worry, wrap it up on me. ”

Looking at Lin Xin's excited appearance, Qiao Xiu gave him a reassuring look again.

He dared to say this, naturally he didn't say it.

With his current spiritual sense, with a little care, he can perceive the general situation of Lin Xin's body.

Through the observation just now, he found that Lin Xin's body had improved a lot compared to the previous few days, which was obviously the benefit of cultivating the Dou Qi Breathing Method.

Judging from the strength of his body, it is not far from the introduction of the Dou Qi Breathing Method, and it can even be said that it is only half a step away.

What Lin Xin said always feels a little worse, in fact, it is because the last small bottleneck has not been able to break through.

This is related to the fact that Lin Xin's own accumulation is not enough, and the time for cultivating the Dou Qi Breathing Method is too short.

In this case, as long as Qiao Xiu used the same source of fighting energy to supplement the little bit of foundation he lacked, there was a great chance that he would be able to successfully complete the entry breakthrough.

"Little stone, come, let my uncle hug me, I haven't seen you for a few days, do you miss your uncle!"

After Qiao Xiu finished speaking, he didn't care that Lin Xin was stupid there, he walked to the stroller next to him, bent down and teased his little nephew.

"Ahhhhh......h Nine............ Hug ......"

Nephew Xiao Shi had just started to learn to speak, and his speech was slurred, but he looked at Qiao Xiu's big face, obviously not recognizing life, and happily stretched out his two little hands and shouted to hug.

"Haha, the little stone is so good. ”

The little nephew's performance made Qiao Xiu feel good, laughing and stretching out his big hand to gently hug him.

"Ahh......h

Qiao Xiu lifted the little nephew high and put it down, then raised it high, and put it down again, and had a lot of fun for a while.

Lin Xin next to him saw Qiao Xiu and his son having so much fun, and also showed a relieved smile.

Click.

Suddenly, the sound of the door opening sounded.

"Mom, Dad, second sister, are you back......"

Seeing his parents and second sister each coming in with a large bag, Qiao Xiu hugged his little nephew and greeted him from afar.

Lin Xin walked over and took the heaviest and largest bag from their hands.

"Stinky boy, I didn't know the time as soon as I cultivated, and now I'm willing to come back?!"

After entering the door, the mother looked at her son, whom she had not seen for several days, and the first one to speak fell.

Thinking about it, since Qiao Xiu became a cultivator, in the past few months, he and his family can really be described as gathering less and leaving more.

The old lady often can't see her son, and she will inevitably remember and feel uncomfortable.

This is still because she doesn't know that Qiao Xiu has often risked life and death recently, otherwise she will only be more worried and dissatisfied.

"Hey, Mom, I'm sorry, you also know that this cultivation is sometimes in a state, and you can't control it more than ......"

Being counted down by his mother, Qiao Xiu felt a burst of guilt in his heart, and at the same time showed an embarrassed expression.

"I know, I know, Mom doesn't blame you for working hard to cultivate, it's just that it's not good to be too addicted, you should pay attention to the combination of work and rest, especially to pay attention to safety, you know?"

The mother obviously understands Qiao Xiu, but as a mother, she is instinctively worried about her son, so she complains.

"Well, don't worry, Mom, I'm measured. ”

In this regard, Qiao Xiu could only nod and reassure.

Although he knew that it was not good to lie to his parents and relatives, Qiao Xiu did not dare to tell them the true situation they had experienced in the past few days anyway.

In order not to make them worry about themselves even more, Qiao Xiu could only continue to lie with white intentions.

"Ah Xiu, you have been in the martial arts hall for so many days, you should have learned a lot of boxing techniques, right? ”

Compared with her mother's worries, the second sister next to her was more concerned about Qiao Xiu's cultivation results in the past few days.

Because this is about whether she can embark on the path of transcendence next.

Qiao Yue, who is already lively and active, may have no less desire for transcendence than her husband Lin Xin.

"Don't worry, second sister, I have learned a lot of boxing techniques this time, and I will teach you the suitable ones later. ”

Facing the second sister's longing and expectant eyes, Qiao Xiu naturally would not let her down.

"Okay, okay, it's not too early, let's cook first, and we'll talk about other things after eating." ”

A silent father next to him looked at his watch and suddenly reminded him.

"That's right, cook first, second girl, don't just think about practicing martial arts, like a boy, hurry in to help." ”

When her mother heard her father's reminder, she first walked to the kitchen with a large bag of things, and by the way, she also expressed her little dissatisfaction with Qiao Yue's eagerness to practice martial arts.

"Slightly, I know. ”

Qiao Yue quietly grimaced at her mother's back before answering and following.

Then the two women of the family began to work in the kitchen, and the three men sat on the sofa and began to chat while drinking tea and waiting for the meal to begin.

"Sister-in-law, Guoguo, you're back. ”

It didn't take long for the door to open again, and Qiao Xiu's sister-in-law Jiang Lu walked in with her niece Guoguo's little hand.

"Where's the big brother? Didn't he come back with you?"

Without waiting for the sister-in-law to respond, Qiao Xiu didn't see the eldest brother behind them, so he couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

He remembered that his father had told his eldest brother to come back and have a meal together.

"Recently, there has been a shortage of official manpower, and your brother is very busy with work, so he doesn't have time to come back. He just called me and said he wouldn't be back until the evening. ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Lu had a trace of helplessness on her face.

Obviously, Qiao Feng's recent busy work is not a matter of one or two days. I often work overtime and have less time at home, which is both distressing and a little dissatisfied as a wife.

Of course, this dissatisfaction is not aimed at Qiao Feng, nor even deliberately against the official, but just some emotions that arise as a wife because she can't spend more time with her husband.

"...... like this"

Qiao Xiu also understood when he heard this, as a first-hand witness of the collapse of the Spatial Secret Realm, he naturally knew how many elite transcendents had been lost by the officials, especially the Maocheng Transcendent Administration.

Coupled with the fact that the coastal defense line has mobilized most of the official forces, it can be said that the remaining personnel of the Maocheng official are extremely scarce.

Even if Qiao Feng was only a member of the logistics department of the Maocheng Branch of the Extraordinary Administration, he would definitely be very busy.
