The timing of Xiao Xun'er's card was very delicate.

Go forward ten minutes.

You might run into Xiao Zhan, the first elder, the second elder, and the third elder.

Push back ten minutes.

You may meet Xiao Yan, Xiao Li, Xiao Ding, Xiao Ning, Xiao Yu and others.

However, considering that Xiao Xun'er has Ling Ying, the Douhuang guard, by her side, it doesn't seem difficult to explain why she is so accurate in timing.

Xiaodie, Xiao Yan, Xiao Ning, Xiao Yu and others arrived one after another.

Two or three minutes late.

But consider this a farewell.

It was also the last time we saw each other before leaving.

It only took an hour in total, including an hour for the round trip. I can only say that Xiaodie was very efficient.

Of course, what Lin Chaoci didn’t know was that it wasn’t that Xiaodie was efficient and effective, but that Xiaodie’s parents gave Xiaodie great encouragement and motivation, and almost drove her away, which cut off Xiaodie’s reluctance to leave, which allowed Xiaodie to return quickly.

In the words of Xiaodie's father.

As your father, I know exactly what kind of child you are.

In cultivating talent.

To put it neither positively nor negatively, he is of average ability.

Pick up anyone at random on the street, and their qualifications are similar to yours.

not bad.

But it's not good either.

She is quite pretty.

But it's just good.

Looking at the maids of the Xiao family, also known as servants, there are at least a dozen who can surpass you in terms of beauty, if not dozens, and there are even more who are comparable to you. A rough screening can find hundreds of them. To be honest, you are still a little short of becoming a concubine of a legitimate son of the Xiao family with this face and this figure.

So, if nothing unexpected happens, you should be like your mother and most of the children in our Xiao family. At the right age, you should meet the right person, get married with the consent and witness of the Xiao family's steward, and change your job to become a laundry woman or a cook in the kitchen. In addition, if you are unlucky or offend certain people, you may also become a servant, do some heavy work, and then give birth to children, and live a life of hard work and hurry.

Just like your grandparents.

So, when did you transform from a sparrow into a phoenix?

It was after you followed this young master!

Therefore, my daughter, you must remember three things.

The first thing is not to forget your roots.

The second thing is to be single-minded.

The third thing is to tell the truth.

This is also the experience your grandfather summed up throughout his life and passed on to me, your father. Now, it is being passed on to you by me, your father.

It's up to you whether you can listen to it or not.

How you do it is up to you.

The only thing I can tell you as your father is: you have never been a phoenix. Even if you have become a disciple of the leader of the Yunlan Sect and look like a phoenix, if you lose the trust of the young master who turned you from a sparrow into a phoenix, you will still turn back to your former appearance, reveal your true form, and become a sparrow that is no different from ordinary people!

So, with this advice from my parents.

Xiaodie returned without any worries.

Of course, the above is just Xiaodie and her parents’ personal perspective.

If Lin Chaoci knew.

He will definitely be in a dilemma.

What about sparrow and phoenix?

What is master and servant?

You people who are too servile, don't always use the support of nobles to negate your personal efforts. Xiaodie's swordsmanship was honed through her life-and-death battles, and her cultivation is the result of her hard work in the past two years. If these things were given to her by me, and you attributed her growth to me, I would be disrespectful to refuse, but I didn't do anything, so there is no need to praise me too much.

Besides, every sip and every bite has its own destiny.

When I was little, she served me wholeheartedly.

I didn't slack off in my daily work just because I was young.

The duty is divided into parts.

Be diligent and conscientious.

It's normal for me to give a chance to such a person.

However, Lin Chaoci rarely asked about Xiaodie's private affairs.

I have no interest in using a brush to look up this useless information.

Therefore, I don’t know either.

After chatting for more than twenty minutes.

Lin Chaoci sent away Xiao Yan, Xiao Ning, Xiao Yu and others who came with him. Then, he half-closed the door, stopped Xiao Die from closing it, and motioned Xiao Die to be patient, then began to boil water and make tea.

really.

Unsurprisingly.

Half an hour later, there was a gentle knock on the door.

Then, it opens automatically due to force.

Xiao Yan showed a look of surprise.

There was also Lin Chaoci standing by the window, smiling and looking at this side.

"You... expected me to come?"

Close the door.

Entered the house.

Xiao Yan, who had returned, was still a little bit in disbelief.

But looking at the two cups of tea on the table.

He had to believe this outrageous thing.

"I expected the word to be used inaccurately."

"I'm not a deity."

“You can’t predict the future.”

"I'm just waiting for you here based on everything I know."

Lin Chaoci raised his hand, and pointed it like a knife, motioning Xiao Yan to sit down and then asked, "Excuse me, but do you know that your expression betrays your thoughts all the time?"

"Fuck!"

"Face reading!"

Xiao Yan, who obviously had some cultural background, couldn't help but swear. Looking at Lin Chaoci's pretended confused expression, he felt a little superior, but it was quickly dispelled.

Touching nose awkwardly.

Covering up the uneasiness in my heart.

After all, he, a time traveler, didn't master it, but the native genius opposite him did. It was neither reasonable nor moral for him to be proud of it.

If both sides have the same configuration.

The other party will surely be able to beat him by eight blocks.

However, since he knew that the other party had the ability to read faces, there was no need for him to hide some secrets. He said carefully: "Cousin Chaoci, do you know... Xiao Xun'er is not actually from our Xiao family?"

"She left a very bad impression on you."

Lin Chaoci hit the nail on the head.

Xiao Yan almost became autistic on the spot.

However, in order to keep the conversation going, Lin Chaoci took a step back and said with a smile, "Of course I know she is not from our Xiao family, because I can recognize everyone in our Xiao family... Doesn't it sound incredible?"

"Do not."

"Now, anything that happens to you is reasonable to me."

"Because you're different from me."

“Unlike most people.”

"You were born to test the limits of the human species."

“It cannot be judged by common sense.”

The corner of Xiao Yan's eye twitched slightly.

He praised sincerely.

Even if his description sounds like an insult.

Although it was not the first time that he felt that the gap between people was greater than that between dogs.

Just like when he was in school, there were always some top students who ranked first in the school every time, while he could only hover in the middle. It took him half an hour to memorize a text, and he clearly remembered the math formulas but just couldn't apply them.

So, now, I have traveled to another world.

He knew very well that he was just a pseudo-genius.

But when facing a true genius, the feeling of oppression is absolute, and it makes him clearly aware of how superficial he is.

It was as if he had been stripped naked and thrown into the snow.

There are no secrets at all.

It feels pretty bad.

However, Lin Chaoci had no objection to his words, but Xiaodie could not stand it and frowned, “Master Xiao Yan, what you said is a bit too much, isn’t it? My Master is not a monster, but a genius among geniuses… Even if it is because Master Xiao Yan has been flattered by those blind people for years, so that Master Xiao Yan cannot recognize himself, and even cannot accept that there are people who are better than you… But, that cannot humiliate my Master!”

Hearing this, Xiao Yan was speechless.

The word "monster" has no meaning in modern times.

It has even been turned into a positive term due to its extensive use in many popular novels.

But its essence is still derogatory.

Refers to those evil spirits that do not look like humans.

So, when Xiao Yan remembered this after hearing what Xiao Die said, it was already too late. Even if he wanted to explain, it was too late.

He could only look at the native Lin Chaoci with apology.

Yes.

Because Lin Chaoci did not reveal his identity.

In Xiao Yan's eyes, he is still a native.

However, after this happened, Lin Chaoci still stood up to explain and said with a smile: "Xiao Die, don't get me wrong, cousin Xiao Yan didn't mean what you think. Some words still need to be considered in the context of where they are used. Just like a monster, this person is as strong as a monster. This sentence is not to belittle or insult this person, but to praise this person's strength, which is so strong that it is unreasonable... In short, I hope cousin Xiao Yan can forgive my little maid for talking nonsense without understanding. I apologize to you on her behalf... Let's get back to the point. It sounds like you, cousin Xiao Yan, have discovered something wrong. Is it about Xiao Xun'er?"

"Brother Chaoci, you are too kind."

"I used the wrong word."

“No wonder this girl.”

Xiao Yan clasped his fists and apologized in a reasonable manner. Then, he returned to the topic with a bitter tone: "I suspect I have fallen into Xiao Xun'er's illusion..."

"Do not."

"You were not hit by Xiao Xun'er's illusion."

"There is no fighting spirit in Xiao Xun'er."

"She can't cast illusions on you."

Lin Chaoci smiled and denied it categorically, but before Xiao Yan could ask further, the next sentence he uttered made Xiao Yan freeze in his tracks, and cold sweat broke out from his back: "The one who cast the illusion on you should be the Dou Huang next to Xiao Xun'er, and, as far as I know, that Dou Huang is just Xiao Xun'er's bodyguard, and he still has to obey Xiao Xun'er's orders in everything... A family with such a configuration would not have to choose our Xiao family even if they wanted to avoid trouble and send their children to foster care... Therefore, it is not difficult to guess that Xiao Xun'er must have joined our Xiao family with some purpose, and the excuse of foster care to avoid internal strife should also be an excuse... However, don't worry, since Xiao Xun'er joined our Xiao family in this way, it means that she will not use tough measures. As long as she doesn't use tough measures now, give me ten years, even if she can use them then, it will be too late!"

Honestly, that's too much information.

Even if Xiao Yan is a time traveler.

I endured the pressure of being confused for two years.

His character is far superior to that of ordinary people.

When I suddenly heard this, my head started buzzing.

Therefore, it was not until he felt a dampness between his eyebrows and the cold sweat that covered his forehead had become so much that his eyebrows could no longer bear it and slid down to his eyes, and some of the sweat even seeped into his eyes, that Xiao Yan suddenly came back to his senses. He shuddered obviously and his voice trembled: "How did you know?"

"That Dou Huang suffered a loss at my hands."

"Later on, she came to visit."

"I met her face to face."

"It can be considered a confrontation."

"These are the natural conclusions."

As he said this, Lin Chaoci touched his neck and took out the jade pendant hanging below his collarbone, motioning: "Before you just came, she had already visited me and gave me this thing... Don't worry, there is no ill will... She has no ill will towards me, and I have no ill will towards her. I also believe that she has no ill will towards the Xiao family, because I am sure that she will not do anything to prevent me from having ill will towards her, so she will not have any ill will towards the Xiao family... As for you, who have been bewitched by the illusion, I suggest that you first look for the problem in yourself to see if you have done something wrong to anger her. If you really can't find it and don't want to suffer this kind of torture, then just tell her directly. At worst, the favor will be counted on me. Do you think this is okay?"

Xiao Yan was silent for a moment, then clasped his fists tightly.

Bring your palm and fist together.

There was a sound similar to clapping.

Then, he said seriously: "Brother Chaoci, leave this matter to me. I think I have understood it. Thank you for your reminder!"

"Too polite."

Lin Chaoci picked up the teacup and took a sip, which seemed to mean that he was serving tea to the guest. However, before expressing this meaning, he still solemnly warned: "The fact that Xiao Xun'er, who is obviously a young lady, can suffer such an injustice proves that what Xiao Xun'er wants, or what the people behind her want, must be extraordinary... But remember, no matter how extraordinary the thing is, you still have to be alive to get it. If you know exactly what the thing is and you know that you can't keep it, then you might as well pretend that you don't know... Because from Xiao Xun'er's behavior, she doesn't want to make a big deal out of this. As long as she grasps this point, even if the future me, the future you, and the other backbones of our Xiao family encounter an accident, the Xiao family can still live safely in this world, because Xiao Xun'er needs this matter to be unknown and untraceable, and keeping it unchanged is the best way!"

When Lin Chaoci was drinking tea.

Xiao Yan understood what Lin Chaoci meant.

He drank the tea in the cup in one gulp and was about to leave.

But in the face of Lin Chaoci's instructions.

He still stopped for a moment.

Then, he bowed and said, "Thank you for your advice!"

It wasn't until Xiao Yan left the courtyard.

The gate baffle is closed.

Lin Chaoci looked at Xiaodie, took out the gift box Xiao Xun'er had just given him from his ring, and said, "It's all right now. Take this Dou Ji Jin (Battle Skills)... We can go to Zhongzhou, but we have to fly there. It's just right. On the way, I'll teach you how to make medicine."

"Is this... the legendary flying fighting skill?"

Xiaodie opened the box.

Looking at this special scroll.

I exclaimed subconsciously.

Fortunately, reality is not a game, otherwise, the loyalty level would exceed the limit again.

"Don't make a fuss."

"Go and get it."

Lin Chaoci waved his hand, signaling Xiaodie to practice on her own.

Then, he picked up the teacup and walked to the window.

He took a sip comfortably.

Admiring the scenery that I haven’t seen for two years but seems familiar.

as always.

But it seems different.
