Her eyes suddenly widened, the maid's mouth was slightly open, but she couldn't speak, and even her lips were trembling.
The focus of her eyes fell on the forehead of the strange man in front of her, but there was no blood mark there indicating his identity.
There was some hesitation, but he still asked, "Are you from China too?"
"Nonsense, otherwise who would speak Mandarin in Sloan?"
Liu Xiao pointed to his forehead, "Don't look here, my blood mark has long been gone."
The maid nodded repeatedly, with a bewildered smile on her face, "I, I am from Shantou, Shantou, Guangdong Province."
Liu Xiao pursed his lips and thought for a moment. He had been to Shantou once, but he wasn't very impressed, and he forgot why he went there.
"Do you know Zhou Shen? The one who sings very well."
Although it was 90% certain that Jiang Shuhan and himself were the same batch of trialists, Liu Xiao still had to ask more questions. After all, the Origin Trial was held every ten years, and it was impossible to say whether she was from the previous trials.
Come.
The girl blinked, not understanding why the other party would ask such a question.
But he still nodded, "I know, I especially like his big fish."
Satisfied and 100% sure, Liu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, and the smile on his face became natural and natural after a long absence.
"Why did you come to Tianyong City? Are you with friends? Why are you working as a maid in the Pang family?"
"After the trial, I wandered to Tianyong City with my brother and his friends. My brother is a disciple of Fuxian Pavilion. Because I have no talent and don't like fighting, I can't enter the sect. So I asked someone to help me.
Because of my relationship, I was arranged to work as a maid in the Pang family, but the Pang family treated me very well, and my usual job was similar to that of a cleaning lady."
After the girl finished speaking, she lowered her head in embarrassment and said softly, "I have seen all the Chinese people in Tianyong City, but it seems that you are not there."
"When I chose the beacon in the trial realm, Tianyong City was not an option at all. I ended up going to the outer city, so of course you haven't seen me."
Realizing something, Liu Xiao continued, "Are there many Chinese people here?"
"Oh~ So that's it. Including me, there are one hundred and nineteen. I don't know if that's a lot compared to other places."
The woman obviously agreed with this answer, and she felt a lot more relaxed, and she could even speak fluently.
"It should be considered a lot,"
Liu Xiao recalled that there were actually quite a few Earthlings in Xuanwu City, but not many Chinese people. They were mainly the ones who wandered away to Crescent City with him.
"How did you know you were going to Tianyong City at that time?"
"My brother, he is from a special organization in China. The organization told him to come to Tianyong."
Jiang Shuhan didn't hide anything and gave the answer directly.
"It can't be the dragon group."
Liu Xiao asked tentatively.
"It's the Dragon Team! How did you know?"
Jiang Shuhan looked surprised.
"Because I am also a member of the dragon group. However, I completed the trial relatively early. By the time they told me, it was already too late."
"Ah? Then you are... a bit unlucky. If you are with us, we can help each other and get together regularly to talk about the past on Earth. Otherwise, you will be so lonely."
Jiang Shuhan has completely let go, no longer reserved and cautious. Not only has her expression become richer, but her way of speaking has also become Chinese.
Being able to converse with people in my hometown dialect in Shilong itself can arouse the feelings and charm of my hometown, making it seem particularly friendly and familiar, without any pretense or disguise.
"Yeah~~~"
Liu Xiao made a long note as if he was complaining, recalling the days when he first came to Sloan. He really had to rely on himself for everything, and there was no one around him who could talk to him.
"But it's not bad. I've met a lot of new friends since I came here. By the way, there are some Chinese people in Xuanwu City."
"Really?" Jiang Shuhan's brows frowned slightly, and then quickly expanded into a cheerful arc. "I've heard of Xuanwu City, but I've never been there. We can ask them to come to Tianyong City too. This is where we are.
The place where China originated.”
Suddenly something occurred to her, and the light in her eyes dimmed quietly.
"But this time King Yubei rebels, I don't know if my brother and the others will be fine."
If these Chinese people were near the Wugu Gate at that time, they might have encountered something unexpected. Now that Jiang Ci's Chengtian Army has come directly to kill them, it is hard to say what the final outcome will be for the Kunlun people in Tianyong City.
"We ourselves have just escaped, and their situation will only be known after the situation is stabilized. For the time being, there is no need to think too much about it, unless you have some long-distance communication tools, such as phone calls, WeChat, etc."
He knew Liu Xiao was teasing him, but Jiang Shuhan couldn't laugh, so how could he not think about it.
"Thank you," Jiang Shuhan looked into Liu Xiao's eyes, "it was you who saved me just now."
After being caught in the carriage by a group of servants, she had been in a state of happiness and confusion. Why did this man choose her?
If Liu Xiao hadn't revealed his identity as a Chinese, she would have almost thought that the other party was interested in her.
Although this reason is very absurd, in terms of appearance, figure, life experience, and background, there is no comparison between myself and the four young ladies who are neither dirty nor jealous, but also poetic and picturesque. Otherwise, why would it be because of the above?
"We're all fellow countrymen, so there's nothing I can't thank you for. If our positions were reversed, you would save me."
Liu Xiao didn't take it seriously. He finally chose to stay and go with the Pang family's motorcade. A large part of the reason was because of Jiang Shuhan, or in other words, because of the blood mark on her forehead.
"By the way, which dragon team does your brother belong to?"
I was sidetracked by other topics just now, and now I’m back to the topic.
"Yinlong, what about you?"
"ha?"
This answer made Liu Xiao laugh out loud, and he really hit his own nerves.
"Is your brother Jiao Duan? Lu Wu? Hu Jiao? Chang You? Fu Zhu? Ping Peng? Or Shan Yao? It can't be Leng Yufeng. I remember there is another Ling Yu, but he should be a female.
"
Jiang Shuhan groaned, covered her mouth with one hand, pointed the other hand at Liu Xiao, and said in disbelief, "You, you, you! You can't be that Chaofeng, can you?"
Liu Xiao chuckled, "That's right."
"I know you! During the trial realm, my brother mentioned you many times! He said that among their hidden dragons, you were the fastest to reach the Walker level, the first to become a formal member, the first to complete the trial, and the most capable
Killing people is also the most unlucky one."
"Okay, that sums it up well. So, who is your brother?"
The most unlucky thing probably refers to the fact that the Daoist Star Stone was controlled by Kelan Gaozhan. Liu Xiao remembered that he had mentioned it in the Star Pattern Spiritual Sound.
"I forgot, my brother is Pingpeng, but Pingpeng is just his code name in Yinlong. It is no longer used. His name is Jiang Xiaofan, which is a very common name."
"Really, are you two brothers and sisters? Why do you feel that your name should be more artistic?"
Liu Xiao had a deep impression of Ping Peng, mainly because Ping Peng and Shan Yao were a living pair, a perfect hidden dragon atmosphere group, daily cross talk actors, and called themselves professional dads all day long.
"It was true at the time, but I changed the name of Origin. My previous name was...Jiang Xiaobai, don't get me wrong, when I was born, there was no such wine! That's why
My brother always teased me about this, so I decided to change it."
Well, there is nothing wrong with this wave of name changes.
"Mr. Liu, can you speak the language of the mortal world?"
After listening for a while in the carriage, the five people finally couldn't bear it anymore and opened the carriage door, allowing Pang Buji to ask questions on behalf of them.
Seeing the young lady appear, Jiang Shuhan seemed to suddenly remember his identity, immediately lowered his head and stopped talking.
"Mortal world? You mean the wasteland, right? Yes, Jiang Shuhan and I are both from the wasteland, we can almost be considered the same hometown."
"ah!?"
There was an incredible exclamation in the carriage.
"Brother Liu, you, are you really a mortal?"
Yu Wenyi also poked his head out, maybe because he was afraid of heights, his face was pale at this time, "But there are no blood marks on your forehead from the mortal world."
Liu Xiao nodded perfunctorily, "Blood marks are not always there."
I feel miserable, not because I have to explain my origin and background to people again, but because Kunlun's name system is completely independent of the human order.
Energy crystals are called spiritual stones, soul crystals are called mid-grade spiritual stones, fighting is called physical cultivation, soul refiners are called spiritual cultivation, wasteland is called the mortal world, and people in the wasteland are called mortals...
It’s really annoying!
I don't like to remember things, so I was forced to remember two different sets of names.
Broken old man!
From this perspective, Liu Xiao somewhat understood why the twelve ancestral inheritances were fragmented in the end. If it were him, he would definitely rise up and unify the twelve clans with independent civilization systems!
Otherwise it can really drive people crazy.
Destroy it, hurry up, I'm tired!
"Brother Liu, whether you are from the outer city or the mortal world, I, Yu, already owe you two lives. I may not be able to repay this kindness in this life."
Yu Wenyi said with a wry smile. Bu Zhuo and Wu Ji behind him, including Bu Ji who was leaning against the door, also looked at Liu Xiao with serious expressions and serious eyes.
"Don't say that. Without you, wouldn't I be able to get out of the city gate?"
Liu Xiao finally found an excuse to calm these people down.
"This...this...can't be counted."
Yu Wenyi was at a loss for words for a moment and wanted to say that even if it were calculated, it would be the credit of the two young ladies of the Pang family. But when she thought about it, she seemed to have persuaded Liu Xiao to stay.
"Whether it counts or not is nothing more than karma, so don't take these things so seriously. We are all walking together so that no one has an accident. We can go on the road happily and get home safely. It's that simple."
Yu Wenyi only felt that Mr. Liu was casual, free and low-key. What he said seemed to make sense, but when he heard it, it seemed that he didn't listen.
His face was pale, his mind was a bit lost, and he could only nod dully.
"Mr. Liu," I don't know which one of the picturesque figures it is, said with a slight smile, "Can you tell us sisters your story."
