At the other end of the street around the city is the gate of Pang Mansion.
An old man guarding the door first saw the carriage on the boat, his eyes brightened obviously, and he subconsciously greeted it. Then he saw the four ladies of the Pang family slowly walking out of the boat pavilion, their steps obvious.
Speeded up a lot.
"Kunzu, have mercy, Kunzu, have mercy! Four young ladies, you are worthy!"
The old man's face was full of joy. Halfway through, he suddenly stopped, turned around, and shouted into the house, "Mei Fan, Cai'an, let everyone come out!"
Here, the four ladies have already got off the boat one after another.
"Butler Huang, don't bother, we'll go in directly."
Pang Buzhuo took the lead and when passing by the old man, he whispered, "The one in green is Mr. Yu, and Shu Han is the servant of the house. Both of them must be treated as honored guests. The one in black is Mr. Liu. Can we
I owe all my life to him for his help."
The old man bowed his waist and kept nodding. At the same time, he glanced at the two strange men with his peripheral vision.
After saying that, Pang Buzuo took the lead and walked towards the door.
There were more than ten people inside the door, who were running out of the door in a hurry. When they saw Pang Buzuo coming towards them, they hurriedly bowed and saluted.
"That big black cat must be treated well!"
Girl Buji, who rarely gives orders, added something to the old man for the first time.
"Yes, Miss Buji, leave it to me and you can rest assured."
Liu Xiao did not follow the Pang family into the mansion, but stood alone on the edge of the lotus leaves.
The prying eyes are everywhere, but they can't find the source.
At first, he just felt uncomfortable. As time went by, he became more curious. Isn't this kind of investigative skill not limited by scope?
There was clearly a vast expanse of blue waves in front of him, and the nearest Lotus Leaf City was more than ten kilometers away, but the source of surveillance was right in front of him.
Is it an underwater fish beast? Or is it using some kind of invisibility skill that cannot be sensed by itself? Or is it more weird, able to mislead sight perception?
Weird.
"Master Liu."
From behind, Pang Buji's soft call came.
"coming."
I couldn't figure it out for the moment, so I turned around and walked towards the gate of Pang Mansion.
It turned out that the four young ladies of the Pang family, plus Yu Wenyi and Jiang Shuhan, were waiting for him in front of the gate.
.......
Liu Xiao and Yu Wenyi took a short rest in the guest room, then went to the side hall to drink tea and chat.
By the time the five girls walked out of their respective rooms, they had all put on brand new dresses.
Seeing that the four ladies had arrived, the old housekeeper quickly gave a brief report on the situation here.
It turned out that the head of the Pang family had arrived in Jingpu Town a long time ago and had taken away all the local clan members. He said he was going to Danxi Town to hold a clan meeting. He left in a hurry and only told the housekeeper that Tianyong’s Pang family would be there soon.
Come and let him serve you well.
After speaking, the housekeeper asked if there was any news about other tribesmen and whether he needed to make any preparations in advance.
Pang Buzhuo only said that the road was dangerous and not many people could reach Xupu safely.
The old housekeeper looked gloomy. He also knew that in troubled times, human life was the least valuable thing. He braced himself and said that since the four ladies of the Pang family were in charge, he would take people to wait on the county road.
Bu Zhuo did not stop him. This is the duty of a steward.
After the housekeeper took the people away, Pang Buzhuo immediately asked the maid to fetch the Thousand Thousand Threadworm pupae, and each reported to his family that he was safe.
Since they had to wait for a reply from the other end, the Pang family could not leave the Pang Mansion for the time being. With nothing to do, Ruhua simply took four sets of chessboards and prepared for a four-on-one game.
Liu Xiao didn't know Go and wasn't interested in watching them play chess, so he took Jiang Shuhan to sit in the garden of the atrium. He was very interested in knowing about the Chinese people who came to Tianyong, especially the situation of the Hidden Dragon Group.
.
Jiang Shuhan was in a very low mood and remained taciturn along the way. On the one hand, as a maid of the Pang family, she was used to keeping a low profile in public, but mainly because she was worried about her brother Jiang Xiaofan.
The two of them sat in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, and Liu Xiao took out some food from the earth.
It's actually not that delicious, but it's something from my hometown after all.
Jiang Shuhan picked up a bag of potato chips, but did not open it for a long time. Instead, he carefully looked at the meaningless Chinese characters on it, over and over again.
"Can you give it to me?"
Finally, she raised her head and looked at Liu Xiao expectantly.
"These are originally given to you."
Liu Xiao pointed at the snacks on the table, seemed to notice something, and asked attentively, "After the Origin Trial begins, how many times will you return to Earth?"
Jiang Shuhan silently stretched out a finger.
Okay, I understand, this will probably take 5 to 6 years.
It is conceivable that a little girl, after experiencing the bloody Origin Trial, went to a completely unfamiliar city with her brother, and then separated from her brother and worked and lived alone in the Pang family. This loneliness, depression and lack of awareness of her family's hometown
The longing is so heavy that one can’t breathe.
Looking at Jiang Shuhan in front of him, Liu Xiao would be reminded of Ruan Ling from Xuanwu City, that strong girl. He didn't know if she ever went to Muye City.
Liu Xiao placed an earring on the stone table and pushed it in front of Jiang Shuhan.
The other party obviously didn't understand his intention, and his eyes flickered back and forth between the earrings on the table and Liu Xiao's face.
"You can use the space container."
To others, this thing is a priceless and even unattainable treasure, but to Liu Xiao, it is a bit too much. He doesn’t even remember which corpse this earring was taken from, he only knows what’s inside.
The space is very small, less than one cubic meter.
Jiang Shuhan shook her head subconsciously, "No, I can't have it, I can't use it, really."
Liu Xiao pursed his lips, stuffed the snacks on the table into the space container, and then pushed them to her again.
"What now?"
Seeing that the other party still refused to accept it, Liu Xiao took out a handful of rings, necklaces, earrings and nose rings from the small leather bag hanging on his belt and scattered them on the table.
"This thing is worthless to me."
Jiang Shuhan shrank his neck but still did not reach out.
"How are the other members of the Hidden Dragon Group doing?"
He did not continue to struggle and diverted the topic. The earring was just placed on the table.
"Team leader Jiao Duan joined the Tianyong Army and is now a member of the Yinyu Guards. Deputy team leader Hujiao left Tianyong and went to Changning City. I haven't seen him for a long time. Deputy team leader Lu Wu was at the beginning.
He worked as a helper in Yushouxuan, but once he went out to escort war beasts, he never came back. Deputy team leader Leng Yufeng and team member Zhang You both entered the Lijian Sect. They only went to Tianjian during the last Changsheng Festival.
I met once in Yongcheng, team members Fu Zhu and Ling Yu. They have a relatively close relationship. They left Tianyong a long time ago and settled in Danxi City, but every time they celebrate the Xi Festival, they come back to get together with everyone.
By the way, they already have children, a pair of twins, very cute. Finally, there is my brother, Jiang Xiaofan, um, let’s call him Pingpeng, and his best brother Shan Gao. They went to Fuxian Pavilion,
They have all become inner disciples, but their masters are not the same."
After listening to Jiang Shuhan's words, Liu Xiao just nodded silently.
He has actually never met these people, and all his memories are just voices in the star pattern spiritual sound.
Some people join the army, some disappear, some live in seclusion, and some fight hard.
Time flies, and everyone has their own trajectory. Maybe these vivid people are just distant and unfamiliar stories after all.
To some extent, I feel a little emotional.
On the other hand, I feel that the Hidden Dragon Group actually seems meaningless after joining Sloan.
"Why did the Dragon Group ask everyone to come to Tianyong in the first place?"
Liu Xiao didn't understand very much.
"Leng Yufeng is actually a member of the Banished Immortal Alliance. After he confirmed that there was a guide star stone in Tianyong City in Yucheng, he reported the matter to Panlong and decided to complete the trial first and meet with the Banished Immortal Alliance in Tianyong.
It is also right for the people in the city to pick up the people and then make proper arrangements for the Chinese trialists who arrive later. Otherwise, everyone will be scattered to different city-states, isolated and helpless, and can only survive on their own."
Smiling at himself, wasn't Jiang Shuhan's last sentence about him?
It seems that the Dragon Group has such an arrangement not for China. It is also because the descendants of the Immortal Alliance will know that it is almost impossible for people who come to the Zhongqian World to return to the wasteland.
"Is there a free door in Tianyong City that can return to the mortal world?"
Liu Xiao remembered that only the four major cities had this thing, and because he was familiar with the roads, he always chose the Tower of Babel in White Tiger City.
"No."
Jiang Shuhan shook his head, "Only the super-large city-states of Zamai can exist. This is what Leng Yufeng told us. Moreover, a departure from the mortal world requires more than 100,000 order merits. With so many, no one can go back."
Suddenly thinking of something, she raised her head suddenly and stared at Liu Xiao, "But you, why..."
