I have flowers, do you have pots?

Mu Xianyu's original plan was to sneak into Gao's house by doing odd jobs, trying to get the attention of those in charge.But he didn't expect that after entering the house for a long time, he had already seen two uncles one after another, and was dragged to meet the grandfather who chased and killed him all the way without any explanation.Before he had time to react, he was dragged all the way to the Patriarch's study.

Although the idea of ​​sneaking into the Duke of Zhen's mansion came after he was bombarded by the siege crossbow, but Mu Xianyu was not mentally prepared to meet the old Duke directly when he came up.Waiting for the master to come out in the study with the little guy, I felt some subtle uneasiness in my heart, took a deep breath to calm down, and shook my head with a helpless smile: "Actually, I didn't plan to—— See you soon, the old man..."

"Little brother, don't worry, I can feel that everyone in their family is not strong, and they won't hurt my little brother."

Mo Zhi slightly raised his head and answered seriously, then gently shook his little brother's hand.Mu Xianyu couldn't help laughing, pulled the little guy into his arms, shook his head and sighed softly: "I'm not afraid that they will hurt me, but—"

He suddenly stopped talking, pulled the little guy up, and looked towards the door of the study.Gao Tianci had already pushed the door open, and a hale-haired old man walked in, glanced at the two of them, then turned around and asked in a low voice, "Are these two people?"

Gao Tianci nodded, closed the door with his backhand, and added another sentence: "Father, they were enlightened by that senior—"

"I don't care who enlightened them, since they have already entered the Gao family, they have to follow the rules of the Gao family."

Lord Zhen Guo interrupted him, walked to the table of the Eight Immortals and sat down, looked up at the two of them, frowned and said in a low voice: "The name, the origin, do you want me to ask you one by one?"

Perhaps it was because the Gao family members I met before were all inexplicably easy-going, Mu Xianyu had almost forgotten what kind of temper his grandfather had.Suddenly being questioned by him like this, he finally confirmed that he did not come to the wrong place, shook his head and chuckled, met his gaze and said unhurriedly: "We are just ordinary people who have never seen the world. Don't you Ask, how dare we speak?"

Unexpectedly, he actually dared to talk back. Lord Zhen raised his eyebrows slightly, but there was not much anger in his eyes. Instead, he seemed to be aroused a little interest: "It's not a coward, and it's really courageous—— You have already signed a contract of sale with the Gao family and have become servants of the Gao family, aren't you afraid that the old man will send you off in a fit of anger?"

"You don't have to give up life, but you can't accept it if you are soft. Our brothers just didn't want to be coerced by the Seven Kills Gate, so we were chased all the way to the capital. , Forgive Xiaomin for not giving the old Duke this face."

Mu Xianyu shook his head with a smile, and replied lightly.Duke Zhen raised his eyebrows and looked at him, his eyes suddenly flashed with surprise, he shook his head thoughtfully and chuckled: "You look like an acquaintance of this old man... just But you don't look like him. Otherwise, the old man insists on taking you in—into his house to recognize relatives and see if you have any ulterior relationship with him. "

"Old Duke's acquaintances must be either rich or noble, and Xiaomin and his younger brother are born with duties, so I'm afraid they can't get high."

Hearing that he changed the word "entering the palace" abruptly, how could Mu Xianyu not know who the acquaintance he was talking about was.However, he himself didn't know what his father was like on weekdays, and he couldn't help but think in his heart that it was terrible, and he was worried that the old Duke would really bring him into the palace on a whim to meet his own father. Gao Tianci suddenly interjected: "I just want to ask you your name and where you came from. Where did you come up with so many words--just talk about what you have, why do you have to use this advantage of tongue?"

Mu Xianyu originally thought that he was concentrating on cultivating and ignoring the world, but now seeing that the second uncle also knew how to help out by pretending to be a bad face, he couldn't help but chuckled.But he also changed the subject by following the trend, leaned over and cupped his hands and said, "Yes - I'm at Xiamohang, this is my younger brother Mozhi. The two of my brothers were originally working in Zhuozhou. They were chased by Qishamen and fled to the capital. The Supreme family is looking for shelter, and I hope the old man will take him in."

"The Seven Killing Sect is just a small sect, so there is nothing to be afraid of - but the Gao family is not being taken advantage of. You have caused such trouble for the Gao family for no reason, what can you do for us?"

Just now when he gave him a push, Lord Zhen's attitude turned a little better, and his tone slowed down a little.Before Mu Xianyu could open his mouth, Mo Zhi who was beside him suddenly said seriously: "If there is a shroud like that of Master Jiu's yard in the house, we can still help break it!"

Gao Tianci's complexion couldn't help changing slightly, and there was a little embarrassment in his eyes. He turned his head and coughed a few times helplessly: "It's a seal, and it takes a lot of effort to set one up. You broke one and broke through the big one. Woe, how can I get anything else to make you toss?"

"The seal you put a lot of effort into was broken by someone accidentally. What else do you have to say here?"

Zhen Guogong glared at this son angrily, and his face suddenly darkened: "The Gao family has devoted all their efforts to your cultivation, and now you have achieved nothing at such an age, and you are actually killed by a half-grown child who has no hair yet. Do you think it's awe-inspiring to be overwhelmed?"

"There's no need for the old man to get angry in a hurry - from Xiaomin's point of view, the problem may not all be caused by the second master."

Mu Xianyu looked at the excitement from the sidelines without hesitation, and interjected at the right time. Seeing the eyes of the two turned around together, he smiled again and said: "Although my brother has been farming for generations, he also listens The people from Qisha Sect have talked about the principles of wood, water, and other five elements that generate and restrain each other. Shedi is an earth element, and earth restrains water, which happens to be able to break the seal of that layer of water system. Therefore, it may not be the strength of shedi How strong it is is just a coincidence."

After hearing his words, Gao Tianci's complexion finally improved a little.Turning to Zhen Guozheng to speak, he was frightened back by his father's look, so he could only lower his head obediently, not daring to speak again.

Duke Zhen glared at this useless son, and then turned to Mu Xianyu and Mo Zhi, with doubts in his eyes: "Are both of you earth-type? I haven't seen many earth-type It is said that the world will be in chaos if the earth system is present, and the old man is the Duke of the current dynasty, so it is impossible to turn a blind eye to this..."

"My younger brother is an earth element, but I am not."

Mu Xianyu smiled and shook his head, but suddenly a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he said in a meaningful and slow voice: "However - the world is in chaos, it's just a deceitful person saying it. If the old man Isn't it a bit too childish to take it seriously?"

"There are some things in this world that sound like child's play. Naturally, you don't have to believe in them, but you can't pretend that they don't exist."

Zhen Guogong replied in a low voice, and suddenly met his gaze thoughtfully, shook his head slightly after a while, and sighed very softly: "I really don't want to talk to you—your eyes Reminds me of someone..."

"Didn't the old Duke remember it once?"

Mu Xianyu couldn't help laughing helplessly, lowered his eyes and looked away, shook his head helplessly and said: "Could it be that I really resemble the acquaintance of the old duke so much that the old duke can bear it whenever he sees Xiaomin?" Can't stop thinking of him?"

"It's not the person I mentioned just now, it's another—that's all, let's not talk about it."

Mr. Zhen Guo waved his hand, and Shen Yi's face seemed to be soaked in a little softness in an instant, but it was only fleeting. He shook his head and stood up and said: "I don't know about cultivation, but according to what Tianci said, you two brothers You probably do have some skills—if you want, you can stay, but do you have any other conditions?"

"It's nothing more than hiding and chasing and killing. It's a good thing that Gao's family didn't abandon him. How can there be any conditions?"

Mu Xianyu also stood up and responded with a smile.Lord Zhen seemed satisfied with his performance, nodded without saying a word, and was about to leave, when a servant's report came from outside: "Master, I don't know where the Ninth Young Master has gone. It's not here..."

"Let him run away—as long as he has the desire to escape, we can't control it. Even if he is captured, he is no longer usable, so why bother for a waste?"

Lord Zhen Guo replied in a low voice without paying attention, and then said to Gao Tianci who was beside him: "You can arrange these two people——since Ah Jiu ran away, the yard happened to be vacant, so let's call Let them live there for the time being. Tell Tiantai not to chase Ah Jiu any more, the mansion is still in confinement, so don't make too much fanfare in what you do, so as not to be offended."

"Yes, follow my father's teaching."

Gao Tianci hurriedly got up and responded respectfully, and waited for the Duke of Zhen to leave, and finally heaved a sigh of relief, cupped his fists at Mu Xianyu and sighed sincerely: "Little brother, even if you are so brave—I dare not fight with you!" My father retorted, for fear that the old man would break my legs in a fit of anger..."

Mu Xianyu couldn't help laughing, and said curiously as if unintentionally: "I don't think the old Duke is too scary—couldn't the old Duke be particularly strict on weekdays?"

"Something is really wrong today—maybe it's because you are like your father's old friend, so your father has been extra lenient with you?"

Gao Tianci muttered thoughtfully, looked at Mu Xianyu carefully for a while, but still shook his head and said: "I don't see how you look like an old friend, I'm afraid you are some friend of my father—— Let's not talk about this, the two of you probably know the way, so go live in Ah Jiu's yard first, and talk to Uncle An if you need anything. I have to find my elder brother again, if he does it again If anything happens, both of us will be scolded by our father..."

Seeing the rumored dragon of the Gao family worrying about being punished, Mu Xianyu couldn't help shaking his head and laughing, so he nodded helplessly, bid farewell to Gao Tianci, and led the little guy to be self-reliant All the way back to that small courtyard.As soon as he entered the door, the little flower demon suddenly slapped his hands three times with a serious face, making a gesture of sealing his mouth, and slapped the ground with one hand, and there was a flash of white light, covering the whole The courtyards were re-covered.

"What is this—a new seal?"

Mu Xianyu had never seen the little guy use such a method before, so he couldn't help asking curiously when he saw it.The little flower demon nodded seriously, straightened her chest proudly and said: "I learned this from brother Xiaoqing. As long as the seal is set up like this, people outside will not hear us!"

"I have seen such a seal. When I was in Zhang's house, I saw him use it. It's just that he didn't seem to have done so many actions at that time."

Mu Xianyu replied thoughtfully, and imitated the little guy's gestures, hesitating for a while, but still tentatively said softly: "Mo Zhi, are you sure your Brother Xiaoqing didn't lie to you? I always think It seems that there is no senior who would design the sealing method so - so cute..."

"But—brother Xiaoqing told me on purpose that you can't miss a single movement. I learned it several times before I remembered it..."

Mo Zhi responded in astonishment, pursed his lips and carefully recalled the path of the demon power, and there was some astonishment and grievance in his eyes: "The previous actions seem to be of no use... Brother Xiaoqing teased me again, and I deliberately I took a new basin and exchanged it with him!"

Mu Xianyu couldn't help laughing, pulled the little guy into his arms and rubbed his head comfortingly, then slowed down his voice and said, "It's okay——when we go back to Jiangnan, we will bully him back together so that he won't dare to play tricks again." Let's stop the ink, okay?"

"Okay, when I get back, I'll report to Lady Bai, and see if he still dares to bully me!"

The little flower demon's heart has always been pure, and when she heard the words, she eagerly nodded her head, put aside the grievance in a blink of an eye, then raised her head and said curiously: "By the way, little brother—I still find it strange that at that time little brother Why do you say that I am of the earth type? I should be of the wood type..."

"The old man originally suspected my connection with the royal family. If he said it was from the wood family, he might have dragged the two of us into the palace to recognize our relatives on a whim."

Mu Xianyu rubbed the little guy's head with a slight smile, replied in a gentle voice, and murmured thoughtfully: "It's just that - later on, the old man said that I look like another person, but I always want to I don't know who it is. If it refers to the empress, the wording always seems a bit strange, but if it is not the empress, who else can the eyes be like..."

"Could it be my little brother's - my little brother's mother's mother?"

Mo Zhi struggled with addressing for a while, but couldn't figure out what to call him, so he simply said it directly, met his gaze and said seriously: "I can feel that when he said that person, he was in a very sad mood. , the breath is not as aggressive as before. I remember it said in the book that ten years of life and death are boundless, if it is separated by decades, I will definitely miss it even more..."

"You mean—my grandmother?"

Mu Xianyu couldn't help being slightly startled, pursed his lips and thought for a while, but just shook his head helplessly and said with a light smile: "It's a pity that my grandmother passed away earlier than my mother. That's it, if there is a destiny, we will always know - what happened to Fei Bai's side, did he escape?"

"It should have escaped, I didn't feel his strength fluctuate violently..."

Mo Zhi replied hesitantly, closed his eyes and inspected for a while, then opened his eyes in surprise and said: "No - I can't sense where he is, it seems that he is also protected by something. I can only know that he should be safe now, and I can't know anything in detail."

"As long as it's safe, he has his way, and we have ours. We can't help him for the rest of our lives."

Mu Xianyu nodded, rubbed the little guy's forehead lightly, and replied warmly.Mo Zhi replied hesitantly, then raised his head and said in a low voice, "Actually, we can take Fei Bai back to Jiangnan, he has the aura of Jiangnan, and I always feel that he is very familiar—"

"He should be the son of the Jin family, but I'm still not sure which one it is from the Jin family - if it is Jin Hong's, this generation will be a big joke."

Mu Xianyu shook his head with a helpless chuckle, rested his forehead and sighed softly, then said in a slow voice: "I'm afraid Jin Hong didn't tell me the whole truth, or he didn't know the whole truth in the first place. The Jin family must still have the blood of the white tiger, so they gave birth to such a half-human, half-demon child—I just can’t figure out why the Jiangnan end has such a close connection with Beijing. Whether it’s my mother or His mother, it is logically impossible to have been to Jiangnan, but why did my mother leave me the rattle of the Xuanwu Palace, and my aunt even gave birth to a son of the Jin family?"

"Since the little brother's mother and aunt have never been to Jiangnan, could it be that people from Jiangnan came to the capital by themselves like us?"

Mo Zhi also sat up straight and asked a serious question.Mu Xianyu looked at the little guy who was more and more able to keep up with his thoughts, and couldn't help but smile in surprise. He nodded with a slight smile, and patted the little flower demon's back in relief, intentionally slowing down a little. The speed of speech led the little guy to continue to ponder the doorway with himself: "I am also thinking about this possibility-but once this is really the case, the position of the Gao family is obviously very suspicious. Logically speaking The Jin family is capable and willing to seek to usurp the throne, but the aunt actually gave birth to a child with a Jin family. The most likely scenario is that the Gao family was cooperating with the Jin family at that time..."

"But if it's a cooperation between the two, Fei Bai shouldn't be shameful. Could it be that because he has ears and a tail, the human race can't accept him?"

Hearing this, Mo Zhi couldn't help but frowned slightly, and asked a puzzled question.Mu Xianyu couldn't help being startled, hesitated for a while before shaking his head hesitantly and said: "I also think—in fact, it's not. After all, with ears and a tail, it always looks better than wearing a tortoise shell or wearing a tortoise. It would be much more pleasing to the eye to grow a few snake scales..."

The author has something to say: envy others' white tiger blood!The descendants of Xuanwu can be wronged! (つД')
