The interior area of Yu's courtyard is not large, but it is very elegant. There are flower beds on all sides, leaving only a stone path for walking. Several stone tables are placed in a triangular shape in the courtyard. Sitting in front of the tables, it feels like you are in the courtyard.
Sea of flowers, the fragrance of flowers is pleasant.
When Li Tianlan entered the small courtyard, an old man who looked about seventy or eighty years old was lying drowsily on a wooden deck chair in the courtyard and sunbathing.
The old man was thin and short, only a little over 1.6 meters tall, with gray hair and wrinkles on his face. He was lying on a recliner that was much larger than his body with a comfortable look on his face, and his whole body exuded an aura of decay.
Li Tianlan looked calm.
The old man who noticed someone coming in opened his narrowed eyes and glanced at Qin Weibai, and said with a chuckle: "Are you here again to have a meal? You girl can't finish all the delicacies from the mountains and seas all day long, so it's hard for you to like me.
This is a bit of crude craftsmanship.”
"Old man, your craftsmanship is not superficial. Otherwise, how could you make so many big guys from Central China reluctant to leave you? You can count me as half a teacher. I'm going home when I come here. I'll have a meal at home. What are you dissatisfied with?
?”
Qin Wei Baiyun calmly sat at the stone table closest to the old man and said with a smile.
"Can you please pull it off and go home? This is not your home, and I can't afford to support you. Last time you came here for dinner, my granddaughter gave you a nickname. Do you know what it was? Sister Rice Tong, you have a meal.
The food is more than what my granddaughter and I ate in three days. No one has enough food these days. If you don’t come here a few times, my granddaughter and I would like to thank you for your kindness."
The old man lay on the recliner and rolled his eyes. He and Qin Weibai obviously had a close relationship, and he didn't have so many scruples when speaking. He could be described as unscrupulous.
"I understand Qingyan. It's impossible for her to give me such an unpleasant nickname. It's probably your handiwork. It's really strange that a restaurant owner is afraid of customers with big appetites. You are also weird, old man."
Qin Wei smiled.
"Are you considered a guest? You never pay for your meals!"
The old man had a sad and angry look on his face, as well as a look of helplessness on the verge of tears.
Qin Weibai smiled and changed the subject, pointed to Li Tianlan who was sitting next to him and said: "I'll introduce you to a friend, Li Tianlan. He just came to Huating from the southwest border. We are not outsiders. From now on, he might come here every now and then to have a meal."
."
At this moment, not only Li Tianlan, but also Ranhuo standing behind the two people could clearly hear a hint of expectation in the boss's tone.
The old man finally laid his eyes on Li Tianlan, who looked calm, and the sharp light in his eyes flashed away.
The atmosphere instantly became depressing.
He slowly sat up from the recliner and looked at Li Tianlan with burning eyes.
"Mr. Yu, I am Li Tianlan."
Li Tianlan took the initiative and said.
"Your Highness Honghe, are you okay?"
The old man Yu asked suddenly, with a complicated tone: "You and His Highness are three-thirds similar in appearance when they were young, but nine-points similar in spirit. The first time I saw you, I guessed your identity."
Your Highness, this word is a respectful title for a person who has reached a certain level of strength. During the hundreds of years since the founding of the Central Continent, there were only a handful of people who could be called Your Highness.
"Grandpa is okay."
Li Tianlan bowed slightly and answered politely.
"Your grandfather..."
The old man sighed softly, with a nostalgic look on his face. He seemed to want to say something, but he opened his mouth and just said: "I am Yu Donglai, one of His Highness's guards back then. You can come here to have dinner and accompany me by the way."
Let me talk to you, old man. There will be plenty of time to talk about what happened between Your Highness and I back then."
"OK."
Li Tianlan nodded, his expression still unchanged.
"Neither humble nor arrogant, no matter what your character is, at least you are on the surface. Boy, what state are you in now?"
Yu Donglai took a deep look at Li Tianlan and asked suddenly.
Li Tianlan looked calm and said calmly: "I haven't entered the four realms of martial arts yet, so I can't talk about any realm."
He knew that this would probably be an answer that would disappoint the old man, but he didn't want to hide anything.
His martial arts attaches great importance to the state of mind, focusing on the changes in the external world, and his heart is as stable as a rock. Such martial arts indirectly shaped his character, neither arrogant nor impetuous, nor shocked by honor or disgrace.
He didn't seem to speak much, but what he should say was quite a lot, and what he shouldn't say was not a word. Facing Yu Donglai, Li Tianlan knew what kind of attitude he should adopt, and he also knew what kind of attitude he should take. He also knew what his grandfather's old subordinates were.
Regarding your own expectations, under such circumstances, being honest is the best way. Achievements that have not yet entered the four realms of martial arts at the age of nineteen may not look very good, but it is better than being vague and hiding things.
People feel more comfortable.
"You haven't entered the four realms of martial arts yet?"
Yu Donglai's wrinkled face looked incredulous: "Boy, how old are you?"
"In three months, I will be twenty years old."
Li Tianlan still told the truth.
Yu Donglai looked deeply shocked and looked at Li Tianlan blankly, speechless for a moment.
The Four Realms of Martial Arts, this is a standard for dividing strength that is common all over the world, and it also represents the most powerful force in the world.
Qi control realm, ice-condensing realm, fire-burning realm, thunder realm.
This is not a state achieved through cultivation through internal strength, but the limit that ordinary people can achieve with only muscles and bones.
Above the four realms of martial arts, there is also the realm of invincibility.
That mysterious and mysterious realm has gone beyond the understanding of most people. All over the world, any strong man in the invincible realm is an unattainable myth and legend.
Ordinary geniuses can almost enter the most basic air control realm among the four realms of martial arts before the age of eighteen.
Under the martial arts, all are ants.
Considering that Li Tianlan is about to turn twenty but has not yet entered the Taoist realm, it is indeed a bit unsatisfactory.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore. I will cook the food myself today to help you catch the wind. Bai Yatou, come and help me."
The strong look of disappointment in Yu Donglai's eyes flashed away, and then he returned to normal, saying hello in a calm tone.
Qin Weibai hummed, nodded towards Li Tianlan, and followed Yu Donglai into the kitchen one after another.
The moment the kitchen door closed, Yu Donglai, who was walking in front, turned around suddenly, stared at Qin Weibai, who still looked calm, and said in a solemn tone: "Why do you have anything to do with His Highness?"
"I have nothing to do with Li Honghe, I just have a relationship with Tianlan."
Qin Weibai's tone was calm, but Yu Donglai still noticed that when she mentioned the name Li Honghe, her tone was extremely dissatisfied.
Yu Donglai was a little surprised, but still disapproving and said: "Aren't they all the same? Do you dare to say that helping Li Tianlan is not because of His Highness's invincible strength?"
"of course not."
Qin Weibai's eyes said calmly: "Li Honghe's invincible strength was twenty years ago. I'm not sure whether he is still in that realm now. How can he help his grandson for this? I want to help.
It’s just Tianlan and has nothing to do with anyone else.”
"Tianlan...Tianlan..."
Yu Donglai murmured to himself, and finally noticed the unusual tenderness in Qin Weibai's tone. He opened his eyes wide, looked at Qin Weibai, and said in disbelief: "Don't tell me that you are the one who likes me.
That boy?"
Qin Weibai neither admitted nor denied, took two steps forward, picked up an eggplant, washed it and placed it on the panel.
"How is this possible? Although that boy is not bad, he is almost twenty years old and has not yet entered the fourth realm of martial arts. His qualifications are really average. Moreover, he is four or five years younger than you, and his appearance is average. He is a fledgling.
A nobody, under normal circumstances, you wouldn't even know of his existence. It was an accident that you were able to contact His Highness Honghe, and now...this makes no fucking sense at all."
Yu Donglai had an expression on his face as if he had seen a ghost.
"you do not understand."
Qin Weibai turned his back to Yu Donglai and said quietly.
"Yes, I don't understand, but I understand the current situation. No one knows Li Tianlan's identity yet, right? But how long can this secret be kept hidden? One year? Or two years? Once his identity is exposed, whether it is because of the
Is it the case of treason or because of his identity as Li Honghe’s grandson? How many people want to kill him? They are countless! How long can he live as an ordinary person who can’t even enter the martial arts? You have completely found a big deal for yourself.
Trouble!"
Yu Donglai said with a sneer.
Qin Weibai paused and said calmly: "So, old man, are you planning to turn a blind eye to Tianlan's visit to Huating?"
Yu Donglai was silent for a long time before he said calmly: "Your Highness has been very kind to me. It is impossible for me to stay out of Li Tianlan's affairs, but there is not much I can do. His qualifications are average. If he is willing to be a
As an ordinary person, with the help of the balance of forces, I should be able to keep him alive. This is a situation that everyone can accept. Of course, the premise is that you are not involved with him."
Yu Dong was speaking from his heart. Qin Weibai's current power is not great, but he has quite terrifying potential. However, Li Tianlan's identity is too sensitive. Once his sensitive identity is combined with Qin Weibai's potential,
, I am afraid that many people will immediately kill the two of them without hesitation. When Yu Dong arrived, he did not even have the ability to stop them.
It has been twenty years since the Li family withdrew from the Central Continent's special warfare system. Neither the enemies of the year nor those with vested interests wanted to see the Li family rise again.
"Is this acceptable?"
Qin Weibai's tone was cold: "At least I can't accept it, and neither can Tianlan. Old man, what do you think Tianlan does in Huating? If he is just an ordinary person, wouldn't it be better for him to stay at the border? Although over there
There are risks, but it is much better than the situation he will be in after his identity is exposed here."
Yu Donglai was slightly startled. Before he could ask, Qin Weibai had already continued: "He did not come to Huating to be an ordinary person and enjoy life. He is a new student of Sky Academy."
Yu Donglai's expression suddenly changed and he said angrily: "Sky Academy? Is that kid crazy? Where is Sky Academy? With a mortality rate of 30%, with his qualifications, there is no possibility of getting ahead.
, did he go there to be someone’s younger brother and serve as cannon fodder? No, he went to Sky Academy...Does he still want to investigate his father’s treason? Damn, this is simply an idiot! The most important thing he should do is stay away
The circle of the special operations system, rather than taking the initiative to get close to him, otherwise once his identity is exposed, most of the special operations system in Central Continent will be his enemies, and they will never stop fighting!"
"This kid is looking for death!"
Yu Donglai said with certainty.
"So I plan to go to Belgium in the next few days. If everything goes well, Tianlan will at least have one more trump card to save his life. At the worst, it will also allow him to grow up longer."
Qin Weibai smiled, his tone becoming more ethereal.
Yu Donglai shook his hand, and the piece of pork belly he just took out fell directly to the ground.
"You...you are simply crazy! It's best not to touch things that aren't yours. Don't you understand such a simple truth?"
The old man shouted angrily.
"What I like is mine. This is my principle."
Qin Weibai's tone was calm, but his whole aura suddenly changed suddenly, becoming cold and domineering.
Yu Donglai felt weak in his heart.
Once in Central Continent, a certain Taoist prodigy who was regarded as a semi-immortal by countless big shots commented on all the heroes in Central Continent. When that Taoist prodigy evaluated a certain top wealthy clan leader in Central Continent, he directly used the sentence "Inner Sage and External King".
, and this evaluation is still widely circulated, and some people still remember it clearly.
With everything Qin Weibai has now, he is naturally not able to get into the eyes of that strange man, nor is he qualified to be on the list of people to be reviewed. But what few people know is that that strange man once traveled to Huating and met him at that time.
Qin Weibai, who has just turned twenty, also gave a four-character evaluation.
It is completely opposite to the evaluation of the top wealthy patriarch.
The inner king and the outer saint!
This young woman, who is now being known and remembered by more and more people in Huating, has never had any room for change or compromise in her decisions.
Yu Donglai couldn't stop her, and no one could stop her.
"If you can really come back alive, Li Tianlan will indeed have one more life-saving trump card in Sky Academy, but is it all worth it?"
The old man picked up a piece of pork belly again and asked in a complicated tone. He didn't wait for Qin Weibai to continue speaking, and said again: "I have no choice. Just because he is the grandson of His Highness, no matter what, even if I take this
You have to protect Lao Gugu even if you put him in, but you don’t have to do that at all. I’m really curious about how you met that kid, it’s completely inexplicable!”
Qin Wei, who picked up the kitchen knife to chop vegetables, rolled her eyes gently and murmured softly: "A long time ago, I knew him before he knew it."
She took a deep breath and said slowly: "Old man, I know you have a close relationship with the principal of Sky Academy. It's hard for me to talk to him there. This time Tianlan enrolls in Sky Academy, I hope you can help when necessary.
."
"Let's look at this later."
Yu Donglai said impatiently, and then said: "But I still can't figure it out. There is really nothing outstanding about this kid. If it weren't for the fact that he is the grandson of His Highness, I wouldn't even bother to take a look. I feel that he is still the same
Wang Xiaoyao is more suitable for you. That man has been pursuing you for several years, and he is considered to be infatuated."
"He doesn't deserve me."
Qin Weibai raised his eyebrows, and his whole body suddenly became full of energy, showing his unparalleled elegance.
"In the next few hundred years, if this world can only remember one person, it will definitely be my man. Wang Xiaoyao cannot do this, he is not worthy of me."
"Then that Li Tianlan outside can do this? If you want me to evaluate him, this guy can only be described in four words. He is ordinary."
Yu Donglai was angry.
"What a coincidence, I also have a four-word evaluation of Tianlan."
