"However, they all decided to go outside the territory and give it a try after their own strength had reached the limit and could not go any further." The old man surnamed Qin said, with a flash of nostalgia in his eyes, "My senior brother and third senior brother, They all went outside the territory, and they never came back.
One of the reasons why I stay here is that I still miss them a little bit. "
"That's it." Chu Xiu understood completely.
"That's a bit far." The old man surnamed Qin shook his head and said, "Master's attitude towards outsiders has always been to keep a respectful distance and always be on guard."
"Beware..." The figure of Taoist Tongtian appeared in Chu Xiu's mind, and he felt a little uneasy for a moment.
He always felt that Taoist Tongtian didn't look like a good person.
Although, the Taoist behaved very decently.
"Your eyes should be on the outside." The old man surnamed Qin glanced at Chu Xiu and said, "The so-called restoration of the prestige of Suzaku Academy is too petty."
Chu Xiu smiled. He remembered a sentence from his previous life:
Our journey should not be our feet, but the vast sea of stars!
"It's true that he is a little bit petty." Chu Xiu said with a smile.
There was a hint of sarcasm in the eyes of the old man surnamed Qin, "Those so-called old guys and old monsters only dare to appear after our master leaves and compete for the so-called number one in the world. They are just a group of ridiculous frogs in the well.
You are our Master's most promising disciple. Never trap yourself in the so-called love and righteousness. This will restrict your horizons.
Only those who share the same goals are called friends.
Friends will not make things difficult for their friends. "
Chu Xiu straightened his body and saluted the old man surnamed Qin, "Junior brother, you have learned a lesson."
"Tell me about your experience of going to that place at the bottom of Qingming Abyss." The old man surnamed Qin took a sip of wine and lay on the rocking chair, which started to rock gently.
"good."
Chu Xiu nodded, and then told this senior senior brother all the details of the journey to that place.
Including, the golden giant beast he encountered.
The old man surnamed Qin closed his eyes, a look of envy flashed in his eyes.
Who doesn’t want to break out of this world and see the world outside?
He advised Chu Xiu to look outside the world and not be troubled by love and righteousness. However, he was always trapped in love and righteousness and could not get out.
He even gave up the opportunity to go to heaven and leave with his master.
The thoughts of the old man surnamed Qin gradually drifted to the distant past.
After telling the story, Chu Xiu stopped and saw that the senior brother was closing his eyes to rest. He walked away lightly without disturbing him too much.
In his heart, Chu Xiu was actually very grateful to this senior brother.
"In the future, when I am strong enough, I will throw you outside the territory to sweep the floor."
Chu Xiu muttered secretly and came to the inner courtyard of Xia Mansion.
In the hall.
Jiang Rou is drinking tea with Queen Anlan.
The atmosphere was slightly awkward.
There is not much age difference between the two of them, but from Chu Xiu's point of view, there is a generation gap between them.
To Queen Anlan, Jiang Rou was half an elder, and she didn't know how to talk to such an elder.
For Jiang Rou, her mood was even more complicated.
Originally, she wanted to bring Chu Xiu and her daughter Xia Chuxue together.
Now, a woman with an extraordinary relationship with Chu Xiu came to Xia Mansion, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she called her 'Aunt Jiang'.
This made Jiang Rou feel weird.
Especially, she knew that this woman was the world-famous Queen Anlan of the Northern Liang Kingdom.
This awkward atmosphere disappeared in an instant with the arrival of Chu Xiu.
"Auntie." Chu Xiu walked into the hall and called very kindly.
Jiang Rou's face showed joy and she quickly stood up to greet Chu Xiu.
"How long has it been since you came back?" Jiang Rou pulled Chu Xiu's right arm and gave Chu Xiu an angry look.
Chu Xiu grinned, "I've been busy lately, and I just happened to take advantage of this time to come to Lingzhou for business, so I came here to see my aunt."
After sitting down.
The two chatted about home affairs.
Queen An Lan, who was beside her, drank tea gently and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Cousin Chuxue is very good." Chu Xiu said softly, "She became a disciple of an old senior from the back mountain and received a very good inheritance.
His future achievements will definitely be better than those of his uncle. "
"That's it." Jiang Rou nodded, picked up the tea cup and took a sip. She wanted to bring Chu Xiu and her daughter Xia Chuxue together again, but she really couldn't speak in front of Queen An Lan.
"Where is my master?" Chu Xiu asked. One look at the aunt's face and he could actually guess what she wanted to say.
However, some topics are obviously not suitable for interviews in front of Queen Anlan.
"Probably back to Shuzhou." Jiang Rou felt helpless, "Your uncle provides him with good wine and meat, but he is looking for trouble every day and even asks your uncle to call him uncle."
"Uncle? What do you mean?" Chu Xiu was a little confused.
Jiang Rou's face showed some unnaturalness, and she whispered: "Didn't your uncle accept that senior Qin as your godfather?"
Chu Xiu nodded, with a smile on his lips, vaguely guessing where this 'uncle' started talking.
"That bastard of your master deliberately got Senior Qin drunk, and then the two of them became brothers." Jiang Rou had a headache and found it a bit funny, "From Senior Qin's point of view, your uncle should really call you Master. uncle."
"Then just call me." Chu Xiu muttered.
Jiang Rou gave Chu Xiu an angry look and said angrily, "Do you think I should also call you master and uncle after your aunt?"
Chu Xiu coughed lightly and made a very considerate suggestion: "You can discuss it your own way. You should call me Brother Master, and let my uncle call me Uncle Master."
"Looking for a beating." Jiang Rouxu hit Chu Xiu.
Chu Xiu muttered: "That senior Qin is actually my senior brother."
"Senior brother?" Jiang Rou and Queen An Lan were both startled.
Chu Xiu coughed lightly and said seriously: "From this point of view, you and the head of the Xia family should both call me uncle."
Jiang Rou: "???"
Queen Anlan: "..."
The pretty faces of both women were a little dark.
"Just kidding." Chu Xiu grinned.
"..."
After chatting for a while, Xia Qingshan arrived late.
When he saw Queen An Lan sitting in the hall, Xia Qingshan held his breath and glanced at Chu Xiu and his wife Jiang Rou.
"Hey, nephew, uncle, I've been here for a while, why did you just come?" Chu Xiu asked seriously, holding the tea cup.
Xia Qingshan: "???"
He glanced back subconsciously, wondering who Chu Xiu was calling "dirty nephew".
Jiang Rou couldn't hold herself any longer, so she patted Chu Xiu on the shoulder and said angrily: "Do you want me to call you uncle too?"
Xia Qingshan came to his senses, his whole face turned black, and he glared at Chu Xiu fiercely.
This thing, like his master, is not a good thing!
"That's not necessary." Chu Xiu grinned and said leisurely, "I just want my uncle to know that Senior Qin and I are actually brothers."
Xia Qingshan's face was dark. In vain, he knew this kid was coming and immediately rushed back from the Xia Family Medicine Forest.
As a result, this kid wanted to be his godfather as soon as he opened his mouth.
Simply, it is nothing!
"The master and the apprentice must be jealous that I have a good godfather." Xia Qingshan comforted himself.
Until this moment, he thought that he could become a godfather to Senior Qin, which was a good thing only when the ancestral graves were smoking.
"Uncle, you have chosen my senior brother as your godfather. You must have made great progress in strength, right?" Chu Xiu looked at Xia Qingshan, stood up, and said leisurely, "I would like to ask my uncle to give me some advice on my nephew."
Xia Qingshan: "???"
