After a brief briefing, the doorman invited Si Dao into the mansion.

Si Dao walked into the Wang family's mansion. Hua Xiaocan held Si Dao's hand tightly and followed behind.

There are many people in the mansion, most of them are uniformed public servants, and there are few Wang family servants. The doorman who led the way for the road was dressed in plain clothes, and there was no "Wang" logo on the clothes. Everyone is very capable, and when they see Si Dao, they will be vigilant and nod kindly. The noisy outside corridors and no one else gives people a sense of quietness rather than the tranquility of home.

In the distance, the shouts of martial arts training could be heard. One drink after another, bright and distant, clean and tidy, echoing continuously between the empty and quiet houses. Just by the sound of the voice, it was a group of well-trained warriors.

The layout of the mansion is very simple, there are no fancy decorations, no idle flower tea, and it is much more rustic than expected. Although there were no servants to clean it, the surface or the walls were clean and tidy.

Everything is simple but well organized.

It doesn't look like a private mansion at all, it's more like a combination of a government office and a military barracks.

Under the guidance of the doorman, ten minutes away, Si Dao came to a courtyard. There was a man in the courtyard.

The man sat at the stone table, his chin in his left hand and his right hand knocked on the stone table in an orderly manner. He stared unfocused, as if thinking about something. His eyebrows moved closer. It can be seen that he has something on his mind.

However, when Si Dao walked into the courtyard, the man immediately smiled brightly. When he laughs, he looks like a sunny big boy, giving people a strong sense of hope and happiness.

He wears a jade ring on his left hand. This jade ring was entrusted to the doorman by Si Dao just now, and it was also the token that Wei Wuxian handed over to Si Dao at the beginning.

"Haven't asked yet?" the man asked.

"Si Dao. ”

The man raised his left hand, pointed to the jade ring in his left hand, and asked expectantly, "Do you know Brother Wuji?"

"Wei Wuxian is my friend. He told me that if there was anything, I could find a mortal named Wang Boyong. He also said that Wang Boyong was an interesting mortal. Si Dao said bluntly.

Wang Boyong was born in a Xianmen family. For him, the word mortal is a mockery. However, Wang Boyong didn't care at all. He smiled helplessly, with joy. When he heard the word mortal, he remembered the former Wei Wuxian.

"The first time Brother Without a Trace saw me, he called me a mortal. He shouted at me, 'Hey, mortal. That's right, it's you, tall and thin scholar. Wang Boyong explained.

Wang Boyong's temperament is indeed very similar to that of a scholar. He does not have the coercive temperament of a superior, and he feels very peaceful. He was not tall either, but thin, as if the wind could blow him down.

"And then?" Si Dao subconsciously wanted to understand the story behind it.

"Then I'll just walk over there. ”

"Wei Wuxian that guy looks so fierce, aren't you afraid?"

"At first glance, I was a little scared. However, since he was willing to greet me instead of threatening me directly. Come to think of it, he should be a person who can communicate. A person who can communicate is probably not the most dangerous person. Wang Boyong explained.

Wei Wuxian became notorious among his casual cultivators. When most of the monks saw Wei Wuxian, they couldn't wait to roll away. Unexpectedly, a mortal was more courageous than most immortal cultivators, and his judgment was also better. Si Dao agreed with Wang Boyong's words. Although Wei Wuxian was arrogant, he was not an unreasonable person. On the contrary, Wei Wuxian is a very principled person.

"You are indeed an interesting mortal, much like a friend of mine. Si Dao responded.

"Your friend is also mortal?"

An immortal cultivator is a friend of mortals. This is a rare thing.

"That's right, he's also mortal, very ordinary. Si Dao confirmed.

Then, Wang Boyong looked at Hua Xiaocan again. Of course, he could see that Hua Xiaocan was also a mortal. At this moment, Hua Xiaocan held Si Dao's hand tightly.

"It seems that you came to me to help take care of her. ”

There is no need for Si Dao to explain, Wang Boyong can see the reason why Si Dao is here.

"Not bad. Si Dao affirmed.

"Thank you for your trust. ”

Obviously, it was Si Dao who asked Wang Boyong to help, but Wang Boyong thanked him in turn. It's interesting.

In fact, although Si Dao originally had a plan, he did not decide to entrust Hua Xiaocan to Wang Boyong. However, when he saw it for the first time, the confirmation in Si Dao's heart strengthened several points. And after a few words of small talk, Si Dao already had complete trust in Wang Boyong. As Wei Wuxian said, Wang Boyong is indeed a person worthy of trust. There is something in him that ordinary people don't have.

And without any verification, after seeing Si Dao with his own eyes, Wang Boyong also trusted Si Dao. He did not raise any questions about the token. Of course, Wang Boyong believed that with Wei Wuxian's strength, it would be impossible for the vast majority of immortal cultivators to take this jade ring token from Wei Wuxian's hands.

"I want you to take care of her for the rest of her life. Si Dao made a detailed request.

At this time, Hua Xiaocan's hand was clenched tighter. She didn't seem satisfied, and Si Dao threw her to someone else so casually. She said dissatisfiedly: "Si Dao." ”

She is obviously a fourteen-year-old girl, but she likes to call Si Dao by his first name. She stood with Si Dao, even if it didn't look like a father and daughter, she should be the eldest brother and younger sister. But the two give people the feeling that they are equal. Hua Xiaocan is like a little adult, and has the same status as Si Dao.

Wang Boyong saw Hua Xiaocan's thoughts. He suggested: "Brother Si Dao, she lives in the palace as the sister of the martyrs of the extermination team. How?"

Wang Boyong could have directly accepted Hua Xiaocan as a righteous sister. But he didn't. Wang Boyong didn't want to do this. It's just that Wang Boyong's own situation itself is embarrassing. He was just a mortal, and he was a very eye-catching mortal, even more so than an immortal cultivator. In Quyuan County, a person can not know Wang Ren, but it is impossible not to know Wang Boyong. This is not a good thing. Because, after all, Wang Boyong is just a mortal.

"Very good. Si Dao nodded.

Under Wang Boyong's proposal, Hua Xiaocan will get a new identity and will not arouse suspicion. Moreover, the relationship between Hua Xiaocan and Wang Boyong is not very close. In this way, if Wang Boyong is killed, Hua Xiaocan will not be implicated.

Hua Xiaocan is still not satisfied. However, she just pouted and didn't say anything. She was very upset, and pulled at Si Dao's clothes unhappily.

Si Dao smiled and said, "I said that I would stay with you for three months." ”

After hearing this, Hua Xiaocan was immediately happy.

"It's only three months, though. Si Dao emphasized.

"Hmm. Hua Xiaocan nodded absently. For her, as long as she can be with Si Dao, everything is good.

After calming Hua Xiaocan's emotions, Si Dao asked Wang Boyong again: "Are you in trouble?" Or is it that Wei Wuxian's residual power has finally dispersed?"

After Si Dao finished asking, Wang Boyong smiled bitterly. He didn't want Si Dao to know about this. But Si Dao's mind was sharper than he imagined.

Wang Boyong stood with his hands tied. He put away his smile, sighed, and then bit his lip and said, "Who made me just a mortal?"

He has a deep sense of powerlessness, and he has great ambitions but is unable to accomplish them. The Hell-Killing Realm is not something that mortals can control.

Si Dao pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, the various systems in Quyuan County were not proposed by Wei Wuxian, but by you, right?"

Wang Boyong nodded and admitted: "It's just that I don't know how long Quyuan County can last." I just wish the world could be a little more reasonable. For immortal cultivators, today's Quyuan County can bring more benefits. For mortals, life can also be more peaceful and stable. ”

"That being said. But the benefits of the county seat are not enough. And there are a lot of troubles to deal with. What's more, such a move would also cause discontent in the surrounding counties. If the county seat of the world is the same as today's Quyuan County, it is stable and peaceful. Naturally, everyone is fine. However, when the security stability of Quyuan County was significantly far greater than that of other counties, the balance was broken. ”

Wang Boyong fell silent. In fact, what Si Dao said, he didn't know.

He muttered, "I only hope that the world can see another way for immortal cultivators to get along with mortals. Immortal cultivators guard mortals, and mortals provide longevity. I only hope that the world will change somewhat, even if it is only a little. At least, the surrounding county has been affected by Quyuan County. ”

What Wang Boyong said is good. Wei Wuxian was king, and no one took Quyuan County. Wei Wuxian's strength made the surrounding counties in awe. Therefore, the leaders of the surrounding counties did not dare to embarrass Quyuan County at all, and could only watch Quyuan County continue to grow. A few years have passed, and the surrounding counties can only follow the example of Quyuan County. In fact, this imitation was very successful, directly attracting residents of other surrounding counties.

In a sense, Wang Boyong is indeed changing the boundary of the prison killing area.

But with Wei Wuxian leaving, as Wei Wuxian's influence fades into a bubble, this influence will also turn into a bubble and disappear. The world will go back to the way it was. ”

What Si Dao said is also true. The reason why Wang Boyong was able to progress smoothly was largely due to the strength of Wei Wuxian. However, Wei Wuxian had already left, and it was difficult to return to the Killing Prison Realm. Eventually, everyone will recognize this fact. In fact, seven years later, Wei Wuxian's influence has been very weak.

The reason why Wang Boyong is worried is precisely because of this. He already sensed that the time of peace and stability for the inhabitants was coming to an end. The old system will come back.

Wang Boyong couldn't refute Si Dao's remarks. But he still responded seriously: "At least, all the mortals in Quyuan County have had a peaceful time. No matter what, a good day is a good day after all. ”

At this time, Hua Xiaocan also spoke. She actually didn't fully understand the conversation between Si Dao and Wang Boyong. However, she agreed with Wang Boyong's last sentence.

She pulled Si Dao and said loudly to Si Dao: "Big brother is right. A good day is also a good one. ”

This is Hua Xiaocan's life values.

Si Dao sighed and nodded helplessly in agreement. "Yes," he admitted, "at least one day will be better." It's good after all. ”

As the three of them were talking, a commotion came from outside the door. A young man actually broke into the Wang family's mansion directly.

This is a young man in his early twenties. His appearance is similar to Wang Boyong. In comparison, he is stronger and more handsome. However, his nostrils are facing the sky, and his eyes are full of anger, exuding an aggressive momentum.

He is Wang Boyong's half-brother, Wang Boren.
