Xia Chen looked left and right, quite embarrassed!

Zhou Hongyu, Ling Huxue, and Jin Ziyue, who were sitting on either side of him, looked at him with a smile, as if to say how you answer!

In fact, no matter how Xia Chen answered, he would offend them, he was not so stupid.

Therefore, he chose to divert the topic and said with a smile, "We salute the groom and the bride with a cup, and wish them a hundred years of happiness and old age!"

Seeing that Xia Chen didn't answer that question, the three beauties muttered, "Scoundrel." ”

Xia Chen cheekily ignored their words and continued to laugh.

Seeing that he had diverted the topic, the others also knew about his little Jiujiu, so they simply didn't bother with this issue, raised their wine glasses one after another, and toasted the newcomer.

"Brother Tan. After toasting, the head of the Xin family put down his wine glass and said to the head of the Tan family, "Today is Ling Lang's big day, don't you have to say a few words to everyone?" As he spoke, he looked at the Tan family's mother, "Sister-in-law, you can also speak a few words with Brother Tan." ”

The head of the Tan family and the housewife smiled and said, "Okay!

At this point, Xia Chen has bypassed the set set set up by the giant.

......

In the afternoon of the next day, Juzi and the others said goodbye to Xia Chen and the others.

The giant said, "Xiao Chen, if there is nothing wrong, you can go to the cave you said that day." ”

Xia Chen nodded and said, "We'll go later." ”

Patting him on the shoulder, the giant said, "Everything is about being careful." ”

Xia Chen said, "Juniors will be careful. ”

"Alright, it's getting late, and we should be on our way. The giant glanced at the two elders Qi and Chu, and then said to Xia Chen and the others.

Xia Chen and the others saluted one after another, saying, "Congratulations to the giant and the two seniors." ”

The three of them returned the salute and turned to the north.

Seeing the giant leave, Xia Chen said to the three beauties, "Let's go, the second elder of the Zhai family is already waiting for us." ”

Jin Ziyue corrected, "The family is now the chief elder of the Zhai family, not the second elder. ”

Xia Chen patted his forehead and said with a smile, "If you don't say it, I really forgot." ”

Due to an accident in the Zhai family that day, only the second elder of the Zhai family was left among the elders.

After reorganization again, the second elder of the Zhai family became the chief elder, but he was not the only elder now.

Those who did not die in the accident were added to the elders.

As for the head of the family, it is temporarily represented by the mother of the Zhai family, and now it is not yet the time for Zhai Qingchen to become the head of the family, according to the family rules of the Zhai family, the head of the family needs to be a married person.

Zhai Qingchen has let go of his prejudices against Xia Chen and others in the past few days, and gradually befriended them.

Lan Ji and the Chief Elder of the Zhai Family also learned from Ling Huxue's mouth that they were not eating Gu Dan. It was originally a cooperation that used each other, but with everyone's honesty and honesty, the use was thrown away.

However, since the chief elder of the Zhai family had promised to help Xia Chen and them find the whereabouts of the Heart Erosion Sword, he would definitely honor it.

No, Xia Chen wanted to go to the cave to have a look, so the chief elder of the Zhai family made preparations in advance, and waited for Xia Chen and them outside the cave.

Xia Chen and the three beauties went straight to the cave they had entered that day.

"Young Master Xia. Seeing Xia Chen coming, the chief elder of the Zhai family stepped forward.

With him, there were also Lan Ji and Zhai Qingchen, as well as several dead soldiers of the Zhai family.

The dead were among those who survived the day's events.

"Is there a situation?" Xia Chen asked.

The chief elder of the Zhai family replied, "We have already checked nearby, but there is no trace, and I don't know if it has left or is in this cave." ”

"Nine babies like water, all of which does not rule out that it is hidden in the dark river in the cave. Xia Chen said.

"Then let's go into the cave and find out. The chief elder of the Zhai family said.

Nodding, Xia Chen said, "If Jiu Ying is in the cave, the danger is extremely great, in order to avoid the greatest loss, we need to leave some people to wait here." ”

At this time, Zhai Qingchen looked at Lan Ji and said, "Lan Ji, you and a few brothers should stay." ”

Here, Xia Chen also said to Jin Ziyue, "Ziyue, you can stay too." ”

Jin Ziyue asked, "Why?"

"Because here, you're smaller. Xia Chen made up a reason.

Zhou Hongyu said, "Leave some people here, if there is an emergency inside, you can take care of us, so that you will not be in a dilemma at that time." This is also what we discussed before we set off. ”

Lan Ji nodded and said clearly, "Since that's the case, then Ziyue and I will stay." ”

After the arrangement, Xia Chen, Zhou Hongyu, Ling Huxue, the chief elder of the Zhai family, and Zhai Qingchen lit two torches, prepared two more torches, and walked into the cave.

Because they had come in before, the five of them soon walked to the dark river.

The traces of the Zhai family's chief elder slashing with his sword when he was still the second elder are vivid.

There were also many stones scattered on the ground.

"The elder's swords that day scared me out of my sweat. Xia Chen smiled, "If you didn't catch someone, they were smashed by stones." ”

The chief elder of the Zhai family smiled awkwardly and said, "The matter of the day, I also invite Master Xia Gongzi to have a lot." ”

"Haha, of course!" Xia Chen said with a smile, "No one would have thought that we were enemies back then, but now we are friends." ”

At this time, the chief elder of the Zhai family was extremely emotional.

Zhai Qingchen has experienced these times, and he has also matured a lot, "As the giant said at the beginning, it is better to settle the grievances than to settle them." ”

The chief elder of the Zhai family continued, "One more person, one more road!"

"Okay, that's it, don't forget to get down to business. Ling Huxue reminded with a smile.

Xia Chen and the others came back to their senses, and then Zhai Qingchen asked, "How can we find the whereabouts of the Nine Infants?"

Xia Chen held the torch and walked to the edge of the dark river, pointed to the dark river without holding the torch, and said, "Let's look for it along this dark river!"

Zhai Qingchen looked at the dark river, "Is that looking for it separately, or together?"

His second uncle said, "We don't know how long the dark river is, and the danger here is unknown, if you look for it separately, I'm afraid it's not conducive to contact." ”

Zhou Hongyu nodded and said, "The five of us will first look downstream along the dark river, and if there is no result, then look upstream from the other bank." ”

"In this case, will it be a little time-consuming?" Zhai Qingchen asked.

Zhou Hongyu said confidently, "It's okay, I have this!"

As she spoke, she took out a paper crane.

Shadow Chasing Paper Cranes!

Zhou Hongyu said, "This shadow-chasing paper crane can go upstream first, and if it finds the trace of the nine infants, it will feed back the information to me, and then we will meet it again!"

"This thing, I remember, is something from the Changqing Gate. The chief elder of the Zhai family said.

"Well, Huang Caiyun sent it. ”

"I see. ”
