Dali.

After nearly half a month of trials and hardships, Ye Xiao and others finally arrived in Dali, and the hero conference held in the name of Master Yilan happened to be tomorrow. The seven of them found several inns and were told that they were full, apparently because of this heroic meeting, heroes from all walks of life gathered in Dali City.

"Brother Hero, why don't you go find my cheap brother, he is the prince of Dali, he must have a place to live, and although this time the hero conference is in the name of Master Yideng, in fact, it is also held by the Duan family. Ah Zi said to Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao said: "Since you are the sister of the third brother, you are naturally also the lord of Dali, shouldn't you take us to the palace directly, why me?"

Ah Zi gave him a blank look, and said: "Brother hero, I said that you really don't understand? Or pretend not to understand, I am the illegitimate daughter of my cheap dad and my mother, before my cheap dad officially recognized me, I was a fart county lord, if I came to the door to confess my relatives, good luck just let people be driven out as crazy sticks, if I am unlucky, I can listen to my mother, my cheap daddy's wife Dao Baifeng is a powerful master, maybe kill me." ”

Ye Xiao was a little stunned, he really didn't expect Ah Zi to fully understand this matter, and when she said this matter, she was not the person concerned, according to common sense, a little girl of her current age is mostly evasive in the face of this kind of thing, even if she deals with it head-on, she should show her dissatisfaction with her cheap dad or something, but she didn't have it at all, but it was like she was narrating someone else's affairs, and she also made the context of the whole thing so clear.

"Is she a deep city?, or does she have a mind far beyond ordinary people?" Ye Xiao couldn't help but re-examine Ah Zi, originally in his impression Ah Zi was a quirky, vicious and uneducated girl, but after this incident, he had to examine her again, maybe there was something hidden in Ah Zi's heart, she just used this appearance to confuse others, or rather, she used these pranks to attract the attention of others, and used vicious and ruthless means to satisfy a certain emotion that she had lacked since childhood.

At this moment, a group of people walked towards Ye Xiao and the others in a hurry, and the person at the head was Duan Yu, who had not been seen for a long time. It turned out that when Ye Xiao and the others entered Dali City, someone recognized Ye Xiao and notified Duan Yu as soon as possible. The reason why some people recognize Ye Xiao is because two years ago, Duan Yu released his portrait all over the world in order to find Ye Xiao, and naturally some people in Dali City recognized Ye Xiaolai.

"Second brother!" Duan Yu shouted loudly from afar, and his face could not hide his joy.

Hearing this, Ye Xiao turned around and saw Duan Yu coming towards him with a group of people, and when he was puzzled, he also greeted him.

"Third brother, how do you know that I am here?" Ye Xiao saw Duan Yu's appearance and knew that the other party was here to find him, so he was naturally quite puzzled.

Duan Yu said: "Second brother, you are really, since you came to Dali, you didn't come to me for the first time, if it wasn't for the announcement I issued two years ago to find you, so that many people in Dali City knew you, and then informed me, I didn't know that you arrived in Dali." ”

After listening to his explanation, Ye Xiao understood, and said with a wry smile: "Third brother, don't blame, I'm not sure if you are in the city, if you are not, it will not be good for me to disturb rashly." ”

Duan Yu reproached: "Second brother, you don't like to hear what your little brother says, although you and I are brothers with different surnames, but brothers are brothers, no matter whether I am in Dali or not, this is my home and your home." ”

Just as Ye Xiao was about to speak, a sour voice suddenly sounded next to him, "Hmph, my home is your home, it's really a brotherhood." "It was Ah Zi who said this.

Duan Yu and Ye Xiao were both stunned, the former looked at Ah Zi, and after being stunned, he recognized Ah Zi, although as Ah Zi said before, Duan Zhengchun has not officially announced that he recognizes Ah Zi's illegitimate daughter, but Duan Yu once saw Ah Zi when he was in Xiaojinghu, and naturally knew that Ah Zi was the illegitimate daughter of his father, that is, his half-sister.

"Sister Zi, it's great that you're here too. After Duan Yu was stunned, he said happily. For his father's illegitimate daughter, he didn't mind at all.

However, for Duan Yu's enthusiasm, Ah Zi didn't appreciate it at all, and said coldly: "What's good? This is not my home." ”

Duan Yu was speechless, he didn't know what to do, obviously he didn't have much to do about dealing with his many half-sisters, especially Ah Zi, who seemed to be very resistant.

Seeing this, Ye Xiao said: "Ah Zi, don't make trouble, don't you always tell you in front of me, a cheap brother, now that we meet, why are you not intimate at all." ”

Ah Zi suddenly became emotional: "I didn't keep mentioning him, and I don't want to have any intimacy with him, I don't know him, and he doesn't know me." After saying that, he suddenly turned around and ran away.

Ye Xiao didn't expect Ah Zi to suddenly become so excited, seeing that she was about to run away, so he hurriedly said to Duan Yu: "Third brother, these are all my friends, you take them to your house to help me entertain them first." ”

Then he said to Hua Manlou: "Sister Hua, you go with my third brother first, I'll go to find Ah Zi, and then go to meet you." ”

After finishing speaking, without waiting for them to answer, he immediately chased in the direction where Ah Zi was running.

Dali City has recently come to many people in the rivers and lakes because of the reason that the hero conference is going to be held, so the street is full of people, and Ah Zi is petite and petite in this overcrowded street and it is gone, so Ye Xiao could only choose not to let Ah Zi out of his sight as much as possible.

At this moment, suddenly the crowd in front of him exploded, some screamed and some shouted in pain, Ye Xiao's expression tightened, looked at Ah Zi, and found that the other party stood in place and seemed to have nothing to do, so he put his mind at ease, but soon his heart was raised again.

"Someone put poison, I'm poisoned, help me!"

"I'm poisoned too!"

......

It turned out that someone put poison in the crowd, in such a dense crowd, although I don't know how much poison was released, but suddenly more than a dozen people were poisoned and fell to the ground and struggled in pain, these poisoned people had different symptoms, some people foamed at the mouth, some people were purple, and some people kept scratching themselves, obviously the people who released the poison released different poisons.

Ye Xiao's face changed, and she looked at Ah Zi, and sure enough, she began to run out again, and in the places she passed, people kept being poisoned and fell.

"Hiss!" Ye Xiao gasped, already understanding that this poison was exactly what Ah Zi had put it.

In order to prevent more people from being poisoned, Ye Xiao no longer had any scruples, and jumped up directly, stepping on the shoulders of passers-by to chase Ah Zi in the direction, and had already caught up with Ah Zi between a few ups and downs.

Seeing such a situation, Ye Xiao couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart, swept to Ah Zi's side, and before she could react, he stopped her by the waist and hugged her, and then ignored her screaming and struggling, just hugged her and continued to perform light skills to leap out of the city above the crowd.

Ye Xiao took Ah Zi out of the city and went all the way to the southwest for a distance, until he stopped by a lakeside, and he threw Ah Zi on the ground without pity.

"Ahh ”

Ye Xiao carried Ah Zi on his back, he knew that his face must be very dark now, originally he got along with Ah Zi for a period of time, he gradually changed the bad impression of Ah Zi because of the original work, and unconsciously felt that Ah Zi was not as vicious as in the original book, or that Ah Zi in this world was different from the original book, on the contrary, he fought all the way, and even had a good impression of this quirky little girl who liked to play tricks on people, and gradually treated her as a sister. However, today's Ah Zi's wanton poisoning in the dense crowd on the street has destroyed Ah Zi's good impression over the past period of time, she is the same as in the original book, it was the time to punish Kang Min, not only ruined Kang Min's appearance, but also provoked Kang Min's hands and tendons to make Kang Min's life worse than death.

Seeing that Ye Xiao ignored himself, Ah Zi didn't know that his behavior had angered Ye Xiao, but instead leaned on the ground and continued: "Bastard, you hurt me, I'm going to tell Sister Hua!"

Ye Xiao turned around and stared at Ah Zi with complicated eyes, the latter was slightly stunned when he saw that Ye Xiao's expression was different from before, but he still said stiffly: "Why are you looking at me like this?" Anyway, I told you, I must tell Sister Hua that you bullied me, hum!"

Seeing that Ah Zi didn't seem to feel at all how bad it was for her to wantonly poison on the street, Ye Xiao was finally ignited by her attitude and reprimanded: "Okay! You go and tell your sister Hua, you can say whatever you like! Today I have to teach you a good lesson!"

Ah Zi was stunned for a moment, she also saw Ye Xiao angry because of the matter of the Blood Knife disciple on that day, for such a period of time, she had never seen him so angry, even though she teased him a lot during this period of time, making him often extremely embarrassed, but he just let him be like a good gentleman and didn't get angry with him at all, at most he was arguing with him. This made her feel that Ye Xiao was like her brother-in-law Xiao Feng, no matter how she messed around, he would not be angry with her, and the difference was that Ye Xiao would talk to him, which was much more interesting than the dullness of her brother-in-law Xiao Feng, and it was precisely because of this that she never thought of returning to Nanjing City for a while.

Seeing Ye Xiao like this at this time, although she was a little scared and helpless in her heart, Ah Zi's character was to eat soft rather than hard, and the more she was like this, the more she did it, so she also said angrily: "You are better than me, of course you can teach me a lesson, come on, beat me, unless you beat me to death, otherwise I will tell Sister Hua, and ...... And my brother-in-law!"

Ye Xiao saw that Ah Zi didn't seem to be aware of it, so he said in a deep voice: "Don't you really know that you did something wrong?!"

"Did I do something wrong? Okay, I know, don't you just want to take revenge for my tricks on you for a while, then you don't need to frame me for doing something wrong, just take revenge, anyway, I can't beat you, come on!"

Ah Zi's unconscious appearance disappointed Ye Xiao even more, she was really like in the original book. In Ye Xiao's view, it is not terrible for a person to make mistakes, but if this person has obviously made mistakes, but he doesn't know that he has made mistakes, and even doesn't regard wrong things as mistakes, such people are truly hopeless.

Ye Xiao took a deep breath and said, "Since you don't know what you're doing wrong, let me ask you, what did you do on the street just now?"

Ah Zi said: "Poison, what's wrong?!"

Of course, even though Ye Xiao was already mentally prepared, he was still a little speechless, so he said: "Since you know that you are releasing poison, don't you know that you are wrong?!"

"Where am I wrong, they are in my way, can't I release poison to get them away? What's more, my poison is only to make them miserable, and it won't kill them!" Ah Zi said indifferently.

Ye Xiao really couldn't help it, stepped over, grabbed Ah Zi's arm, and said in a deep voice: "They blocked your way, and you let them poison to make them suffer, is that if they accidentally push you down, or grab you like I am now, you will poison them?!"

Being grabbed by Ye Xiao like this, and Ye Xiao also used a little strength, Ah Zi suddenly felt a little pain, frowned and said loudly: "Bastard, you hurt me!"

Ye Xiao didn't care about her, but continued to ask: "You tell me, like now, are you going to poison others!"

Suddenly, Ah Zi's stubborn eyes were filled with tears, and she only heard her say: "Of course, whoever bullies me and makes me unhappy, I will poison them, so that I don't have to be wronged again! I have suffered enough grievances since I was a child, I don't want to be wronged even a little bit, I am not happy with others, and I don't want to be unhappy!" As she spoke, tears began to slide down her eyes.

Seeing this, Ye Xiao couldn't help but let go of her, and for a while he didn't know whether to continue to be angry or how.

At this time, Ah Zi let go of the flood, tears kept falling, and at the same time cried: "Since I was a child, they have laughed at me for having a father and not having a father, they bullied me, beat me, and scolded me! No, I still have a mother, but my mother all day in addition to the things that my father left her, but I didn't care about me, I grew up and was accepted as an apprentice by Ding Lao Weixiang, at that time I thought I finally had a backer, but I was wrong, I did have a backer, but this backer needs me to be worried all day long, racking my brains all day long to make up nice words to please him, because I know that if I fail to please him, then I will be like other brothers and sisters who will disappear one day or be tested for poison! In addition to racking my brains all day long in the Nakshatra faction, I worked hard to learn poison arts, and I knew that only when I was strong enough could I protect myself, and I could not be wronged or bullied! However, I never expected that Ding Lao Wei old guy not only wanted to listen to my good words, but also thought about me, so I stole the Shenmu Wang Ding and escaped! Back to Xiaojing Lake, the cheap old man and I recognized each other, but I was not happy at all, I hated him, hated him for abandoning me and my mother! But there is another happy thing, that is, I met Sister Azhu, and I met my brother-in-law because of this! Mrs. Sister is really good, he loves my sister very much, and at the same time he loves me very much, and he takes care of me! But I know that it is because of my sister, I envy my sister, and at the same time I wish her to be able to grow old with my brother-in-law, so I ran out of Nanjing City and met you......" Speaking of this, she glanced up at Ye Xiao, but stopped talking.

And hearing this, Ye Xiao had mixed feelings in his heart, and at the same time, from Ah Zi's words, he also learned that Ah Zhu did not seem to be killed by Xiao Feng as in the original book, so it seems that this world is really different from the original book, of course, this is also an extremely happy thing, originally he also remembered the incident of Xiao Feng killing Ah Zhu in the original book, and wanted to stop it, but unfortunately he was injured at that time and was healed in the Nine Tribulations, and then things changed again, so that he forgot it for a while, and now he is very happy and relieved to hear this news。

Of course, in addition to this news, he also learned about Ah Zi's heart from Ah Zi's words. He can imagine that an illegitimate daughter has been drifting with her mother since she was a child, and her mother has ignored her, she has already lacked her father's love, and even her mother's love is incomplete. So Ah Zi may not be vicious, she just lacks a sense of security, she is lonely. And in the constellation sect, it has been exposed to it, and finally leads to the current way of basing one's happiness on the suffering of others, and using cruel means to soothe one's insecure heart.

"Ah Zi......" Ye Xiao called out softly.

Hearing this, Ah Zi raised her teary eyes and glanced at him, but she didn't speak.

Ye Xiao felt a little guilty, even if he understood, but he had not experienced her kind of life, he would never be able to truly appreciate the hardships, he knew that for Ah Zi's current character, only by slowly guiding her, so that she no longer felt insecure, and let her no longer feel inferior, she would gradually change.

"Does it still hurt?" Ye Xiao reached out and grabbed Ah Zi's arm that he had grabbed before.

Ah Zi pulled back fiercely and said, "It's none of your business, anyway, no one in this world will care about me, no one will love me, I am different from my sister, she has a brother-in-law to hurt and a brother-in-law to take care of, and I am only one person, and there will always be only one person!"

Ye Xiao felt distressed when he heard this, stepped forward to hug Ah Zi, and said, "Ah Zi, you are not alone, you still have me, and ...... Hmm......" Halfway through speaking, he suddenly stopped, it turned out that Ah Zi bit him on the arm, and he was merciless.

gasped, and saw a trace of blood flowing from the corner of Ah Zi's mouth, it was his own blood, but at this time, he knew that if he broke free, then he might never have a chance to guide Ah Zi to be good, so he held back.

And Ah Zi saw that Ye Xiao was just frowning, without the slightest reproach and anger, his nose suddenly became sore, and the tears that had been stopped slipped down again, and at the same time, his mouth was loosened.

Ye Xiao ignored his still bleeding arm, and said softly: "Ah Zi, you remember that from now on you are no longer alone, and me, I will care about you and will protect you! So don't hurt people at will in the future, okay? ”

Ah Ziwa cried out and buried her face tightly in Ye Xiao's arms.

Ye Xiao gently patted her shoulder and said, "Ah Zi, promise me that in the future, you won't hurt people as casually as before, okay?"

Although Ah Zi in his arms was still crying, Ye Xiao felt her slightly trembling body, and he knew that from today onwards, even if she would not change immediately, at least she would change.
