Jiang Fengmian quickly raised his hands and said, "I wonder who you are, why are you here at this humble residence?"
"Oh my, when did Yunshuicheng Lun get a little flea like you? Are you teaching Xiao Baigu's master? Why don't you show your virtue by peeing yourself!" The visitor said in an arrogant tone. Jiang Fengmian scolded with a stink in his nose.
Jiang Fengmian was very well-educated, so he just smiled lightly when he was humiliated like this, "Your Excellency spoke fiercely, could it be that you are here for Little Friend Bai?"
At this time, Bai Qi came out from nowhere and stood with Jiang Fengmian.
"Hey, this girl looks pretty good with this guy. She's pretty, but why doesn't she like to smile? Smile more, she'll look better."
There was a trace of shyness in Bai Qi's eyes, but he just snorted and kept a cool look.
The heavy pressure on Bai Gu also dissipated without a trace when Jiang Fengmian discovered the visitor.
Hearing this familiar voice, Bai Gu quickly turned around and asked in surprise: "Qiu Shengun, why are you here?"
Qiu Zizai twitched his lips, "Oh no, Xiao Bai Gu, can you give Pindao some face in front of outsiders? After all, Pindao is here to help you out."
"lazy."
Qiu Zizai was asking for trouble and was too lazy to talk nonsense with Bai Gu, so he took his anger out on Jiang Fengmian, "Hey, you pretend to be a decent guy, you look like a dog, but you are not as pedantic and old-fashioned as your ancestor. .”
"You——!" Bai Qi couldn't help but get angry, but Jiang Fengmian held him back.
"Oh? Do you know the ancestor of the lower clan?" Jiang Fengmian smiled, but his body involuntarily tensed up.
"It's nothing. I beat the seven ancestors of your guard line one by one, and accidentally tore off the heads of two of them." Qiu Zizai looked indifferent, "If I remember correctly, There are only three ancestors of your guard lineage left now, right? One of the other two died on Luoye Island, and the other was used as cannon fodder when they broke into the Spiritual Ferry, right?"
Jiang Fengmian's smile froze, and a chill hit Tianling Gai. He unconsciously took two steps back until he bumped into the table behind him. He held down the table with one hand and stabilized his body.
Bai Qi also turned pale, but with quick eyes and quick hands, he supported Jiang Fengmian and looked at Qiu Zizai with fear in his eyes.
When Jiang Fengmian came to his senses, he realized that cold sweat had soaked his back on this snowy day.
Jiang Fengmian raised his head and looked at Qiu Zizai, bowed his hands in a bow, and his tone was filled with respect, "Is it possible that your Excellency is... a free traveler in the world, Master Qiu?"
Qiu Zizai nodded with satisfaction, "It seems that your ancestor made an explanation before you went out."
"Ancestor Chai Gan has taught you not to be rude when meeting Master Qiu, and everyone around you must treat him as a guest." Jiang Fengmian explained quickly.
Qiu Zizai searched carefully in his mind, and finally remembered a thin old man with a Chinese character face and a serious face, "It's him, old man Chai Gan is quite sensible, and he also knows how to talk to you juniors." Emphasize something.”
As he said that, Qiu Zizai gave Jiang Fengmian a meaningful look.
Jiang Fengmian smiled apologetically and said, "Even if Patriarch Chai Gan didn't explain it, it's still appropriate to treat Master Qiu with courtesy and treat him as a superior."
"You're a much nicer talker than old man Chai Gan."
"Master Qiu, thank you very much."
Qiu Zizai waved his hand, "No need to talk nonsense anymore. Xiaobai is taken away by Gupindao and don't cause trouble for him again in the future. Is that okay?"
Jiang Fengmian quickly replied, "Master Qiu, I have no objection."
"I'm sorry you don't dare to have any objections." Qiu Zizai looked at Bai Gu and waved to him, "Let's go. Remember to treat Pindao to dinner when you get back."
Bai Gu didn't speak or move, he just stood there and looked at Jiang Fengmian.
Qiu Zizai frowned slightly, walked over and gave Bai Gu a hand, "Let's go, do you still want to stay at his house for the night?"
But to Qiu Zizai's surprise, he didn't pull Bai Gu, and he even shook his hand away.
Bai Gu took two steps towards Jiang Fengmian, cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Jiang, please answer the question I just asked."
Qiu Zizai's eyes were strange, but he didn't say anything.
Jiang Fengmian hesitated to speak, so he could only look at Qiu Zizai for help.
Qiu Zizai immediately turned his head and looked at the snow scene in the courtyard, "The snow is quite heavy today, which makes the courtyard quite beautiful."
Bai Qi's face was full of doubts, but he wisely did not speak.
The man in front of me was a murderous man who had killed two ancestors of their lineage. He didn't want to live anymore, so he dared to speak carelessly in front of him?
Don’t you know that trouble comes from your mouth?
Qiu Zizai coughed suddenly, as if he was choking on saliva.
Bai Qi felt confused and wanted to show concern for Qiu Zizai, but after thinking about it, he decided not to do it.
What if I say the wrong thing?
It's better not to say anything than to say it wrong.
Jiang Fengmian couldn't get any prompts, so he had to make his own decision: "Little friend Bai, your question is actually not asked at the right time. Even if you know the answer now, what can you change? It's better to wait until you have a certain strength, It’s not too late to know this.”
Bai Guzuo's hands trembled and he said nothing.
Jiang Fengmian quickly looked at Qiu Zizai, and saw that the latter was still looking at the snow in the courtyard without any expression, so he continued: "You don't have to know the truth of some things. You should just use it as a fig leaf, and a wound will be scabbed. Covering it up is actually good for both of us."
Bai Gu put away his bowing hand, put away his long sword, and exhaled slowly, his eyes bright and fearless, "I just want to protect Xiaoxiao."
Hearing this, Jiang Fengmian sneered subconsciously, but immediately observed Qiu Zizai with his peripheral vision and found that the latter ignored the movement on his side, so he felt relieved.
It's just that he is no longer so presumptuous.
"My little life background is so big that Bai Xiaoyou can't even imagine it with his current vision. Although you say you are her brother, you feel that you are not related by blood. At most, you can be regarded as two people who met by chance. Others will recognize you as brother and sister. What is your identity? How many people in this Yunshui City can admit your relationship with Xiao Xiao? To be honest, based on my opinion, Xiaoyou Bai now has nothing but your identity as the first disciple of Lin Jianxian. No. I don't have the strength, so why should I protect Xiaoxiao? With Bai Xiaoyou's empty talk?" Jiang Fengmian became more and more excited as he spoke, and his words became more intense.
Qiu Zizai, who was pretending to look at the snow scene, suddenly shuddered, a trace of panic flashed across his face, and he quickly comforted someone who was watching here.
If you really anger this person, let alone killing several ancestors of Jiang Fengmian's lineage, I'm afraid their entire clan will be turned upside down!
At the same time, Qiu Zizai also secretly admired Jiang Fengmian's courage.
You dare to say anything!
But he did not turn around to interrupt Jiang Fengmian's fierce speech.
Because that person doesn't seem to be angry?
Bai Gu was unable to refute what Jiang Fengmian said, so he had to slowly lower his head.
But Jiang Fengmian didn't seem to want to stop talking, "Little friend Bai, do you think you are the only one in the world who cherishes Xiaoxiao and will protect Xiaoxiao? You are wrong! Although Xiaoxiao's life experience is extremely arousing people's murderous intentions, those who want to kill her There are countless people, but there are also many people who want to protect her, and Bai Qi is one of them! Furthermore, in terms of strength, Xiaoyou Bai, even if you want to protect Xiaoxiao now, you really can’t be ranked among them! What’s more, , even playing with Bai Qi, he was just following orders to take Xiaoxiao back to the clan and protect her, ensuring that she would not be disturbed and hunted by the outside world before she grew up."
Bai Gu raised his head and seemed to have grasped a certain point, "Mr. Jiang, you and your family have no ill intentions towards Xiaoxiao, right?"
Jiang Fengmian suddenly smiled and said, "I am lucky enough to be of the same clan as Xiao Xiao. How could I have any ill intentions towards Xiao Xiao? Furthermore, I come from a lineage of guards, so it is my duty to protect Xiao Xiao Ben."
Bai Gu could finally let go of the big stone in his heart, but the biggest problem was still not solved. "Mr. Jiang, the problem I just had..."
Jiang Fengmian raised his hand to interrupt Bai Gu's words, "Little friend Bai, as I said before, knowing some things too early is not good for you. Regarding small issues, I think I am a like-minded traveler with Xiaoyou Bai. So, Xiaoyou Bai doesn’t need to pay too much attention to his little life and identity.”
Bai Gujiang clenched his fists and unclenched his fists, trying his best to smile, "Okay, I understand."
Jiang Fengmian nodded, and then opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he still held back.
Bai Gu thought for a while and then said: "As for Xiaoxiao, I still want to take her with me for protection. This may disappoint Mr. Jiang. Also, I want to take Xiaoxiao on a journey to Heilongjiang in the next few days. Yangshan treats hidden diseases. If Mr. Jiang is free, I will wait for Mr. Jiang at the East City Gate in two days."
Jiang Fengmian smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. I have been looking for Xiaoxiao for several years. I can afford to wait a little longer. As for Bai Xiaoyou's departure, I will definitely keep the appointment."
Jiang Fengmian took out a gray Sumeru bead and handed it to Bai Gu, "There are several bottles of elixirs among these, which can suppress the recurrence of Xiao Xiao's hidden disease to a certain extent. But I believe Bai Xiaoyou, like me, hopes that Xiao Xiao will not Use this elixir. There is also a skill book and two Taoist tools. It's just best not to touch that skill book. Bai Xiaoyou is prepared for Xiaoxiao. I'm not being stingy, it's actually because my family's physique is better. It’s special, and the applicable techniques may not be applicable to outsiders. Furthermore, I’m shy in my pocket and can’t come up with anything good, so I can only make do with this. I ask for your understanding, little friend Bai.”
Bai Gu responded with a smile, "I understand, I understand. These things are already very good. No matter how good they are, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep them."
Jiang Fengmian smiled and nodded.
Qiu Zizai stretched, his whole body shaking like a sieve, then turned around and said, "Are you done chatting? It's time to go, it's endless."
Jiang Fengmian said with a smile: "Master Qiu, please do as you please."
Bai Gu put the gray Sumeru bead on his wrist, said goodbye to Jiang Fengmian and Bai Qi, and followed Qiu Zizai.
After the two of them left Jiang Mansion and were completely far away, Bai Qi dared to say: "It's really Qiu Zhenren. How could you meet such an expert here?"
"I don't know. The thoughts of the masters are beyond the reach of ordinary people like us. However, the matter of returning to the clan still needs to be discussed." Jiang Fengmian sighed.
Bai Qi also had a sad look on his face, "Who knew that Bai Gu would have Zhenren Qiu's support behind him, otherwise we could directly force him to hand over Xiaoxiao, and we could return to our clan and return to life."
Jiang Fengmian shook his head and said: "It's not like you haven't seen that Xiaoxiao is still young, but he still relies on Xiaoyou Bai and obeys his words. If there is no arrangement by Bai Xiaoyou, or Xiaoxiao himself volunteers, even if Xiaoxiao is taken away by force, These two people will still have opinions about the clan. Maybe they will ruin the clan's plans and lose more than they gain."
"But if this continues, when will Xiaoxiao be able to return to the clan?"
Jiang Fengmian looked up at the sky. Large snowflakes were falling in the sky. Jiang Fengmian stretched out his hand to catch a snowflake. "Don't worry. After the trip to Black Sheep Mountain, many things will come to fruition."
Bai Xiaoyou, it's not up to you which side Xiaoxiao should be on when the time comes.
When the time comes, let's just do our best.
