Through skillful chatting, Yi Liuling got a lot of information from the company's son.
First of all, as he guessed, although Rhett Academy is not a direct descendant of Mary High School, the current dean is indeed the descendant of the original Qi Mary. I don’t know what the considerations were. Although Gruhu abandoned Mary High School at the beginning, he did not exterminate all the remaining people in Mary City. Instead, he drove them to the shrinking Reiter Town, and even allowed the Qi family to continue to pass on the inheritance.
Yi Liuling suspected that all this might be related to the so-called space mirror, but it was impossible for Mr. Si Si or Qi Si to know about such a complicated matter.
In addition, Yi Liuling also inquired about the uncle. The ancestors of this person named Lao Yi immigrated from other places. The characteristic of their family is that all the children born from the green-haired daughters of this branch will have green hair, while the descendants of the sons will not inherit it.
When Yi Liuling heard this, she secretly sighed: "It's actually maternal inheritance."
In short, the Lao family lineage has taken root in Ruite Town, so there is no problem in being a local.
Lao Yi takes his mother's surname. His mother, Lao Gu, was one of the confidants of the former dean of Ruite College before she retired. Therefore, Lao Yi grew up with the former dean's youngest daughter, Qi Si's aunt, Qi Xin. big.
They are nearly thirty years younger than the former dean, but this is not surprising, because once people in the eighth world start to practice, their life span will be extended as their strength increases, and the natural childbearing age span will be wider. Therefore, even children of the same couple can be very different in age, and as they are diluted over more generations, the differences between peers become even more exaggerated.
For example, Absinthe is Champagne's cousin, but she is hundreds of years older than her, and the Kun family's children who are actually the same generation as Kun Yi would be nearly a thousand years old if they were still alive. There is a bigger gap, but the more powerful a cultivator is, the harder it is for him to have descendants. This law is similar in all worldviews, so it is more difficult to find brothers who are separated by more than ten thousand years.
In any case, because of the age gap between Qi Xin and the former dean, they were not as close as ordinary sisters. Instead, they had a reverence for their elders towards this fellow sister. In contrast, Lao Yi, who is the same age and has an honest personality, has become her best playmate.
"Alas," Qi Si sighed after saying this, "Why don't I have friends who are so easy to bully?"
"Friends are not meant to be bullied." Yi Liuling felt that there was something wrong with Qi Si's thinking and immediately corrected him.
"Oh, I know." Qi Si waved his hand quickly, "I am good to my friends, and I will even give them cakes! It's a pity that Brother Shitou doesn't play with me anymore."
"Who is Brother Shitou?" Yi Liuling did not expect that a new character would suddenly be mentioned.
"Oh," Qi Si put away his frustrated expression, quickly covered his mouth, looked around, and then whispered to Yi Liuling, "You must never tell Uncle Bai about this."
"What happened?" Yi Liuling asked.
"That's Brother Shitou," Qi Si whispered. "Brother Shitou is not from Ruite Town, but from Baizhu Village. However, he usually lives in a farm in the wilderness. Sometimes I go to visit him secretly."
Oh, Yi Liuling understood. The wastelands between towns like this are not under the jurisdiction of any one region. Some people will be tempted to occupy these ownerless open spaces. Some of them built farms or pastures here to produce necessities, some converted them into entertainment facilities for themselves and their relatives and friends, and some simply built closed warehouses to store things that they did not want to be searched by house patrols.
But no matter what, those who can attack the wasteland are not ordinary people. This brother Shitou has a great background.
"How old is this Brother Shitou you are talking about?" Yi Liuling asked.
"As old as my sister," Qi Si replied, "Brother Shitou is very powerful. I met him when I was five years old. He has to manage a large farm by himself."
"He's only three years older than you, but he's already so powerful at the age of eight?" Yi Liuling was quite surprised.
"That's right," Qi Si obviously admired Brother Shitou very much, "He is born with supernatural power and can lift heavy things. I heard Brother Shitou said that his family didn't like him, so he was allowed to live alone. There."
"I see, then why doesn't he play with you anymore?" Yi Liuling continued to ask.
"Probably last year, I secretly ran to the farm to look for him, and found him packing his things." Qi Si replied, "Brother Shitou said that his family was going to take him back, and he also gave me a farewell message. Gift."
As Qi Si spoke, he took out an irregularly shaped stone from his arms, about half the size of his hand.
Yi Liuling examined the stone. He didn't have the ability to identify the stone, but he could feel where it was broken off from?
He thought for a while and asked, "Can you give me a closer look? I have never seen this kind of stone."
"Actually, it's nothing special. It's the white stone that's a specialty of our Gru County. We usually use it to make building materials." Qi Si seemed to be hesitant, then looked at Yi Liuling's expression and made up his mind, "Brother Shitou As he said, my friend is his friend, so I can show it to you, but you must not break it, otherwise I will never pay attention to you again."
"I'll just take a look, and it won't be damaged." Yi Liuling promised in a serious tone, and then took the white stone under Qi Si's nervous gaze.
Sure enough, as Qi Si said, this is an ordinary white stone removed from the mineral vein. It has neither magic elements attached to it nor any strange power. If there's anything extraordinary about it, it's probably its hardness that allows it to be used as a building material.
To be able to break off such a small thing that is difficult to rely on, Brother Shitou is indeed born with supernatural power.
It seemed that this was indeed just a token exchanged by the two children. After making sure that no more clues could be found, Yi Liuling returned the white stone to Qi Si. The latter breathed a sigh of relief and carefully took it into his arms.
Yi Liuling is now more interested in Lao Yi than Brother Shitou. This person obviously has a different view on the death of the former dean, but he doesn’t know about this matter and the secret channel. Did he hear it from his mother who was the confidant of the former dean, or from Miss Qi Xin? Did you know that?
In addition, are Lao Yi and the pretender the same person? If so, is there any connection between the fact that he stopped doing this five years ago and Qi Xin's death? What's the connection?
When Yi Liuling sent Qi Si back to Ruite College in the evening, she mentioned the matter to Vice President Bai.
"Is there something fishy about the death of the former dean? Haha, little friend, you think too much." To Yi Liuling's surprise, after hearing his conjecture, Vice Dean Bai immediately showed a disinterested smile, "This matter No investigation required.”
