After Shitian heard what Xi Zichen said, he was about to ask him what he meant, but Xi Zichen struggled to crawl out of his arms and ran towards Xi Honglei.
Xi Honglei watched Xi Zichen running toward her with two swaying legs, and couldn't help but smile, squatting down and hugging him into her arms.
"Mom is so awesome!" Xi Zichen was talking to Xi Honglei fawningly, then looked at Jinyu who had walked to Xi Honglei's side, thought for a while, and said: "Uncle Cheng, give Chen'er money, Chen'er
I’ll teach you how to defeat your mother!”
Xi Zichen's words made Xi Honglei's smile stiffen. He was so greedy for money at such a young age, Xi Honglei really didn't know when he learned this trick.
"Oh? How much does Chen'er want?" Jinyu asked half jokingly and half seriously.
Xi Zichen lowered his head and began to think about Jinyu's question very seriously. He even crossed his little fingers to calculate how much money he wanted.
Xi Zichen's actions made Jin Yu couldn't help but laugh, and Xi Honglei sighed helplessly. Xi Honglei stood up holding Xi Zichen, looked at him, and whispered: "Chen'er, don't think about it, mother will take you to take a bath.
,OK?"
"Okay!" Upon hearing Xi Honglei's words, Xi Zichen immediately gave up his original idea. He leaned into Xi Honglei's arms with a smile on his face. Xi Zichen ignored Jin Yu and left Xi Honglei happily.
Jin Yu looked at the two people leaving, with the corners of her mouth raised slightly, and her eyes full of tenderness. It wasn't until Qiu Shitian came to his side that Jin Yu slowly withdrew her gaze.
Xi Honglei returned to the room and took some clean clothes. Then she took Chen'er to the hot spring in the mountain and took a comfortable bath.
Xi Honglei sat there a little tiredly, watching Chen'er playing with the water alone not far away, and slowly relaxed her body.
Xi Honglei took off all guard and looked at Chen'er quietly. She looked at his soft hair sticking to his body, looked at him waving his little hands towards her, looked at him leaning down with his little buttocks and touching his feet.
, watching him suddenly run towards him without warning.
Xi Honglei smiled lightly and took Xi Zichen's body, letting him sit on her lap.
"Mother." Xi Zichen was a little tired from playing. He looked up at Xi Honglei and said with an innocent face, "Next time Chen'er will also practice with mother."
"Chen'er is still young, why are you so anxious to practice?" Xi Honglei raised her hand to wipe the water droplets on Xi Zichen's face and asked.
"Chen'er helps my mother fight the bad guys." Xi Zichen clenched his fists, then kissed her intimately to quell his tears. "Chen'er wants to protect my mother."
Listening to the child's childish words, Xi Honglei felt warm in her heart. Xi Honglei nodded gently and looked at Chen'er acting coquettishly in her arms with soft eyes. After helping Chen'er wash herself, Xi Honglei
Tears took him back to where he lived.
Xi Zichen took a bath and fell asleep. Xi Honglei stayed with him in the room and woke him up when it was almost time to eat.
Xi Zichen turned over sleepily and rubbed his eyes. He squinted his eyes slightly and looked at Xi Honglei, who was very close at hand. Xi Zichen asked in a sweet voice, "Mom, are you ready to eat?"
"Yes, it's time to eat."
Xi Honglei rubbed Xi Zichen's hair, watched lovingly as he climbed up, rubbed his belly, and then murmured to himself, "It's time to eat." Xi Honglei chuckled softly.
The sound comes.
Sitting at the dinner table, Zhao Longxuan was nowhere to be seen. Xi Honglei thought he was practicing martial arts and didn't ask any questions, but Xi Zichen was anxious.
"Where is Uncle Zhao? Why don't you remember to come back after dinner?"
Qiu Shitian glanced at Xi Zichen's little face, then looked at Xi Honglei, and said, "I just went to the bamboo forest to see him, and he's not there."
"Where are other places? Have you looked for them?" Jinyu interjected and asked.
"I've seen it all, I think I'm going out."
Zhao Longxuan rarely went out alone. In Xi Honglei's memory, he only went out twice. So what was it for this time?
When Zhao Longxuan left, they didn't take it seriously. Because Zhao Longxuan had strong martial arts skills and was not a child anymore. There would be no danger even if he went out, so they were not too anxious to find him. However, as time went by,
, after seven or eight days passed and still no Zhao Longxuan came back, Xi Honglei began to be a little concerned.
Zhao Longxuan is the kind of person who must achieve his goal once he has determined it. Therefore, Xi Honglei had also discussed the purpose of his trip with Jinyu a few days ago. Did he go out to find the person he bumped into last time?
People?
That person knew Xi Honglei. Jinyu was not present at the time and did not dare to confirm his identity. However, Jinyu was worried in his heart. He was afraid that the person would be Mu Yunmeng's subordinate.
Zhao Longxuan's whereabouts had never been found, so Qiu Shitian took the opportunity to go out to buy food and inquire about Zhao Longxuan's whereabouts. However, after checking, he found that something serious had happened.
Qiu Shitian hurried back to the mountains and told Xi Honglei and Jinyu the news that Zhao Longxuan had been captured. Xi Honglei frowned slightly, somewhat doubting the authenticity of the news. There were only a handful of people who could capture Zhao Longxuan.
, how could he be subdued so easily?
"Do you know where he was taken?" Jinyu asked in a low voice.
"How can I have time to check so many things?" Qiu Shitian shook his head with a gloomy expression. Zhao Longxuan has been arrested for a few days. Now he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead. It is also unclear who was captured. Want to
It is too difficult to find his whereabouts and rescue him.
Jinyu lowered his head and remained silent. After a while, Jinyu raised his head, looked at Qiu Shitian with twinkling eyes, and asked, "Is it possible that he is from Fengyun Villa?"
Jin Yu's words made Qiu Shitian stunned, and his eyes turned stiffly from Jin Yu to Xi Honglei. After thinking for a while, Qiu Shitian said quietly: "It's not impossible..."
Qiu Shitian's reaction made it impossible for Xi Honglei to pretend that nothing happened. Xi Honglei turned to look at Jinyu and asked in confusion: "Where is Fengyun Villa?"
"Fengyun Villa is the largest killer organization in Xixi Kingdom." Qiu Shitian on the side answered Xi Hongli's question in a cold voice.
Qiu Shitian's words made several people fall into silence. Xihong looked at Qiu Shitian with eyes fixed on his eyes, thinking about his answer with complicated emotions. If the person who captured Zhao Longxuan is really from Fengyun Villa, then it means that
, the person he bumped into that day was also related to this villa. How could he be related to such a killer?
"Master, you and I will go out to the mountain to see if we can find out his whereabouts and rescue him." Jinyu stood up and said to Qiu Shitian: "He has been with us for so long, I can't see him dead.
No help.”
"I'll go with you." Xi Honglei said to Jinyu with firm eyes.
Xi Honglei's words put Jinyu in a bit of trouble. What he was most afraid of now was that Xi Honglei came out of the mountain, fearing that others would discover her traces.
"It might not be a bad thing if Hong Lei followed him out." Qiu Shitian glanced at Jin Yu without leaving a trace, and said to Jin Yu's surprise: "One more person means more strength. Zhao Longxuan fell into the hands of those people.
There's no telling when he will be killed. If we want to rescue him as soon as possible, it would be better for the three of us to join forces."
"What should we do with Chen'er?" Jin Yu strongly disagreed with Qiu Shitian's idea. "No one in Fengyun Villa is easy to deal with. It's impossible for us to take Chen'er out. Honglei is not familiar with the outside environment, so it's impossible
How can it help us?"
Xi Honglei sat on the chair, listening to the words of Jinyu and Qiu Shitian, and lowered her eyes. Not letting others see the emotions in her eyes, Xi Honglei wondered alone what Qiu Shitian meant by what he just said. What exactly did he mean?
Did you say it intentionally or unintentionally, asking you to go out together? And with what kind of mentality did you say that it would be better for the three of you to work together?
Qiu Shitian has always been thoughtful, and there is no way he would not consider Chen'er. He wants to get out of the mountain, why?
Jinyu still refused to agree to let Xi Honglei come with him, and Qiu Shitian didn't say anything. Xi Honglei, on the other hand, nodded obediently and never mentioned the matter again.
"Master and I will not be back in the next few days." Jinyu got ready and stood at the door and said to Xi Honglei: "I will bring Zhao Longxuan back as soon as possible, so you don't have to worry."
Xi Honglei nodded and smiled at Jinyu. "You should be careful too."
Jinyu and Qiu Shitian left. Xi Zichen stood next to Xi Honglei. He looked up at Xi Honglei and curled his lips. "Uncle Cheng and the others are all going out to play, without Chen'er and mother."
"Chen'er also wants to go out to play?" Xi Honglei looked at Jin Yu's two people walking away from each other, raised the corners of his mouth, and asked Xi Zichen.
"Is it okay...?" Xi Zichen didn't expect Xi Honglei to ask such a question. He blinked his eyes, grabbed the hem of Xi Honglei's clothes with great anticipation, and asked.
"As long as Chen'er is obedient, mother will take you out."
Xi Honglei took Chen'er back to the room and closed the door. He quickly found the things he had prepared before and changed his face. Then Xi Honglei strode to the bed and took out a bundle from under the pillow.
, then picked up Xi Zichen with one hand and whispered: "But Chen'er has to agree to mother's words and be obedient. We can't let Uncle Cheng and the others know that we are out, do you understand?"
"Understood!" Xi Zichen nodded vigorously, extremely excited. "Chen'er will follow mother honestly and silently!"
Xi Honglei took Chen'er and followed Jinyu and Qiu Shitian out of the mountain. He always kept a long distance from the two of them. Xi Honglei knew the martial arts foundation of these two people, and with Youchen
Even though she's such a little girl, she can't walk too fast.
After Jinyu and Qiu Shitian left on horseback, Xi Honglei bit her lower lip and calculated their destination. Then she raised her eyebrows and said to Xi Zichen: "Chen'er, Mom will teach you how to ride a horse today, okay?
good?"
Following the footsteps of Jin Yu and the other two, Xi Honglei came to the town where she brought Chen'er last time. Outside the city entrance, Xi Honglei was extremely cautious and walked instead. After entering the city, Xi Honglei even more
He is paying attention to everyone around him all the time.
