Shao Xi's kneeling was different from that of Old Wu! The one whom Lao Wu knelt on was Cheng Baiqiu, while the one on whom Shao Xi knelt was Lao Wu.
How could he kneel to Cheng Baiqiu? Even if Cheng Baiqiu is the master of Wangshu Pavilion, the person who suffered in this matter, and the person Lao Wu wants to apologize for, does he have anything to do with Shao Xi? Everything Shao Xi got was given by Lao Wu. Even if there was a settlement, it would be between Wangshu Pavilion and Lao Wu, and it was Lao Wu who he owed.
Just now, Lao Wu's kneeling confused Shao Xi and Cheng Baiqiu, but now Shao Xi's kneeling made Lao Wu and Cheng Baiqiu confused again. It was Cheng Baiqiu who was in a state of confusion from beginning to end.
Old Wu turned to look at Shao Xi and muttered angrily: "I was the one who robbed the tomb back then. Why did you join in the fun? You are the young master of my family. I, the old servant, have always been the only one to kneel down to you. How can you Why do you have to kneel to me? I'm not afraid of embarrassing your parents, so get up quickly!"
Shao Xi shook his head. It doesn't matter whether he kneels or who he kneels at this time. What matters is that he must speak clearly. Old Wu has already done this today. Why does he, a cheap young man, still put on such a stinky air? Cheng Baiqiu must be made to understand that everything Lao Wu did back then was because of himself, and even if he really had to bear the consequences, he must bear his share.
"Old Wu, after so many years, I am no longer the young master of the Feng family. Although you have been calling me young master all these years, I no longer regard you as the old servant in the woodshed at home. No matter how often I always find ways to anger you, over the years, you are my relative in my heart, the kind of relative who cannot be compared even if we are related by blood. I don’t remember the past things very well. I don’t know, but since the Feng family’s disaster, I have seen everything you did for me and kept it in my heart. Although I didn’t say it with my mouth, my gratitude to you is really real. . Back on the grassland, the Tote Department was able to take us in for so many years all because you accepted Muren and Uzhina as your disciples. You gave those two knives and the secret book to Muren and Uzhina just so that I could be here. The Tuote tribe can practice with peace of mind and will no longer have to wander around. I understand all this. Since this mistake was made because of me, then the punishment today must be shared by the two of me. I have never treated you in all these years. I said thank you because I felt that thank you was too light and insignificant. Today I kowtow to you, thank you for your care over the years, and thank you for your upbringing and teaching over the years."
After saying that, Shao Xi kowtowed to Old Wu, and the sound of his forehead hitting the ground was like hitting Old Wu's heart.
After all, this child has grown up and knows how to hide his thoughts. If it hadn't been for today, I might not have known that this child remembers everything and understands everything. The usual quarrels and teasing are actually the most intimate ways of communication between relatives.
Old Wu quickly stretched out his hand to hold Shao Xi, and said with a satisfied look: "Three generations of the Feng family have been kind to me. Young Master, you are willing to treat me as a relative. That is my blessing, but you are still my Young Master." , and will always be my young master. We are relatives, the closest relatives, so anything I do for you, young master, is appropriate and willing. The mistake back then was committed by the old man alone. It has nothing to do with it.”
"Everything you did was for me, how can you say it has nothing to do with me? Back then you withdrew from the world, washed your hands in a golden basin, and was arranged by my father to be by my side just to take care of me when I grew up. But who would have thought that what happened to Fengjiazhuang Such a thing? After encountering a catastrophe, you took me to escape. In order for me to practice the best martial arts in the world, you did not hesitate to go back to your old career and break your original vows, just because you took your promise to the Feng family more seriously. Now, How can I let you bear it alone?"
"Master..."
At this time, Old Wu was already choked up and didn't know what to say. Back then, he had felt that the young master seemed to be a different person after he woke up from a coma. He also wondered whether the young master was still the original young master in his body? But after these years, although the young master's temperament changed drastically due to the incident in Fengjiazhuang, the relationship he had with him over the years was real.
At this time, he has no doubt that Shao Xi is his young master. No matter how much changes have occurred, the relationship between Shao Xi and him has not changed. He regards him as his grandson, and Shao Xi has indeed always regarded him as his grandson. He regarded him as his grandfather.
Nowadays, avenging the Feng family and finding out his life experience has become something that Shao Xi is obsessed with. For Lao Wu, it no longer matters whether he is Feng Yuyan or not. What matters is that he is his young master.
The most embarrassing thing at this time is Cheng Baiqiu standing there. The two men are like two kowtowing insects. The old one kowtows to himself desperately, and the younger one kowtows to the old man desperately. For the moment, I really didn’t know how to deal with this. I could only stretch out my hands in a panic, either to help or not to help.
The root cause of this situation is the trouble that Old Wu caused when he helped Shao Xi find the top martial arts and magical weapons in the martial arts world. He came here just to ask for his forgiveness. After all, Things have already happened, and so many years have passed. Even if he is pursued again, even if he is given the harshest punishment, what should have happened has become a fact and cannot be undone.
So, instead of pursuing the responsibility, it is better to find a way to make up for it, otherwise there are countless embarrassing things that will happen later!
It is really a shame to tell the story about Shen Linyue and Guan Yucheng's tombs being excavated and stolen. It will not only disgrace the reputation of his master and senior Guan, but also affect Wangshu Pavilion's reputation in the world. To lose face, it would be more practical to suppress the matter silently and let the grandfather and grandson make some actual compensation.
Although Cheng Baiqiu doesn't know much about the world of people in the world, he still knows how to weigh the pros and cons.
Faced with the embarrassing scene in front of him, Cheng Baiqiu felt that there was no need to make this matter a big deal, or even announce it. Even the disciples and junior sisters in his pavilion did not want them to know.
No matter what you do now, you can no longer save this face, so don't go out and throw this person away by yourself. At this time, what you should really do is talk to them about how to remedy the matter. Meaningful thing.
Thinking of this, Cheng Baiqiu no longer hesitated, stepped forward and forcibly pulled up Lao Wu and Shao Xi, asking them to sit down and talk. He also returned to his position and sat calmly.
At this time, Cheng Baiqiu looked like a real Wangshu Pavilion Master, calm and elegant, neither happy, angry, nor sad, but facing the matter with the most calm and peaceful attitude.
When Lao Wu and Shao Xi saw Cheng Baiqiu's posture, they understood that Cheng Baiqiu had put himself in the position of the master of Wangshu Pavilion at this time and wanted to talk to them seriously about the matter.
"The reason why Senior Wu and Young Master Shao came this time is already clear to me. Although Senior Wu and Young Master Shao have experienced ups and downs and have a deep love between master and servant, what Senior Wu did ten years ago is not only for me, Wangshu Pavilion." , but disrespect for the entire martial arts sects. No matter what the reason, if you do something wrong, you have done something wrong. What Senior Wu did to me, Wangshu Pavilion, is a great humiliation. How can the graves of my mentor and Senior Guan be ruined? Digging it up at will? How can the buried objects be taken away at will? If this matter is investigated in depth, I am afraid that Senior Wu will never be able to redeem his sins. But then again, after all, it has happened, and it has been so many years. Over the years, in the pavilion, The disciples, including the master of this pavilion, have never noticed any difference between the graves of their mentor and Senior Guan. It can be seen that although Senior Wu did something blasphemous, he did it with awe. It can be seen that the motivation of Senior Wu's behavior was not malicious. . Now that we are being held accountable, everyone will look bad. I think it is better to suppress this matter and let us discuss how to remedy it privately. We should not make it public. As for what to say about punishment or not, forget it! Even if Wu is punished, What can seniors do? If you two really want to atone for your sins, you might as well do something practical."
After hearing Cheng Baiqiu's words, Shao Xi and Lao Wu looked at each other in surprise.
After hearing this, Feng Cheng Baiqiu no longer planned to pursue the matter, and even wanted to hide it from anyone, both from the perspective of Wangshu Pavilion's reputation, and from the perspective of him and Lao Wu. , it seems that not pursuing this matter is indeed the best solution.
But Cheng Baixiu also said, you have done this, and now it is natural to remedy it, but how to remedy it?
Spending a fortune to redevelop the cemetery? If this matter were placed in the Central Plains, it would be reasonable. After all, everyone wants to save face! But on Yingyue Island, no matter how big your cemetery is, no one will see it! It has no practical significance at all!
As for kowtowing, burning incense, and paying homage to Shao Xi, this is just a formality and a face-saving project, and Shao Xi really wants to make some meaningful compensation for this matter.
After thinking for a moment, Shao Xi raised his head and said to Cheng Baiqiu: "The Pavilion Master mentioned before that the tomb of Senior Guan was buried with the Master. I don't know why Senior Guan's remains were not moved to Yingyue Island. How about being buried with your respected master? Even if the Western Region is a long way away for such an important matter, I think with Wangshu Pavilion’s appeal in the world, it would not be difficult to ask someone to move Senior Guan’s remains from the Western Region to Yingyue Island. However, I wonder why your Majesty failed to help the Master fulfill this wish? I think since the Master has been publicly buried with Senior Guan, it shouldn’t be too much to bury the remains of the two seniors together, right?"
Cheng Baiqiu had a look of regret on his face, and sighed heavily and said: "My master was lovesick and died in depression. Several uncles and masters were also very heartbroken. How could we, as women, not understand our master's pain? Later I heard that Guan Senior committed suicide due to Master's death, and Master's uncles also asked people to go to the Western Regions to move Senior Guan's remains to Yingyue Island to be buried with Master, which fulfilled Master's wish during his lifetime, but unfortunately they were not found."
"Can't find it?"
"Well, I can't find it."
