Back Off, Let Me Come

Gong Xiqiu knew at a glance what nonsense he was thinking, and sneered: "Do you really think this matter is simple?"

Xun Ding looked stern: "It's easier than expected."

He really thought he would be beaten half to death by Gong Xiqiu.

Xun Ding had been following Gong Xiqiu for several years and knew that this person's brain circuit was different. The latter's normal performance is to beat him half to death, but his extraordinary performance may directly beat him to death. He then introduces a burly and muscular male favorite to help the young widow get out of the cloud of losing her husband. Normal people would be wary of Xun Ding's father being the Minister of Household Affairs, but Gong Xiqiu didn't care about the secular world at all.

If you hit, hit, kill, kill. Not to mention that Xun Ding has a father who is the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, it doesn't matter if the King of Hell is his father.

Although I was beaten tonight, I didn’t leave any injuries.

Far lower than Xun Ding expected.

Gong Xiqiu twitched the corner of his mouth and said with emotion: "If Alai had my level of cultivation, you and your wife would be very harmonious."

There are some men in this world who are born with itchy skin and like to be beaten.

One can hit and the other can suffer.

Isn’t it a pot lid made in heaven?

Xun Ding's mind couldn't turn around for a while, and he didn't understand the logic between the two. Gong Xiqiu didn't have the time to wait for him to figure it out: "The bodies of ordinary people and brave warriors have different tolerances for pain. The abilities are different. I hope you can still be so relaxed on the day she gives birth. It's not like I haven't thought about beating you to death, for the sake of Alai and the child..."

As long as Xun Ding is a scumbag or just likes Gong Xilai unilaterally, Xun Ding will go to Huangquan Road to report now. But since the two of them are in love with each other, he has no habit of beating mandarin ducks: "After you get married, remember to take care of yourself. My own lower body. The Gongxi clan cannot help but divorce, and it is forbidden for both parties to be unfaithful during marriage."

"When I helped Alai sort out your clan's documents, I also read some of them. I know your clan's rules. I'm not the kind of person who is greedy for sex." "I swear to God!"

Gong Xiqiu showed a hint of ridicule.

Said: "You and I are both men, and the promises in this regard are written on a piece of paper, which is not useful even if you use it to wipe your butt."

Xun Ding secretly complained that this second brother-in-law was really difficult to deal with.

"Then I swear by my courage!"

With such obedience, my second brother-in-law should be satisfied, right?

Gong Xiqiu shook his head: "We have our own methods."

Xun Ding was really speechless now and couldn't help complaining about his desire: "No, why do you people have all kinds of means?"

It is a secret technique to make the man endure the pain of childbirth, and a means to ensure that both parties are loyal and not cheating. It is estimated that there will be other weird things later. There are not many people in the Gongxi clan, but there are a lot of rules. As the Romans do, he nodded in agreement.

Gong Xiqiu rarely rolled his eyes this time.

"How boring would it be to live in seclusion and not do anything interesting?"

Xun Ding: "..."

Gong Xiqiu put away his armor and extended his hand to Xun Ding.

Xun Ding grinned stupidly, grabbed Gong Xiqiu's hand to use his strength to stand up, and said loudly: "Haha, thank you, second brother!"

Gong Xiqiu was disgusted by this title and his mouth twitched.

"Don't call me that."

Xun Ding ignored him and looked directly at Jimo Qiu, who had always remained quiet. Although this young man's appearance was similar to Gong Xiqiu's, they had two different styles. Gongxi Qiuguang just stood there without speaking. When others looked at his features, they would think that he was not easy to mess with. The young man became more friendly and less aggressive: "Second brother, this is ?”

Could it be Gong Xiqiu's son?

Judging from the appearance and age, it is considered consistent.

However, Gong Xiqiu is not a womanizer. He still practices boy skills. He is still a boy at his age, so he cannot have such a big son. Xun Ding also thought that Gong Xiqiu had been away for many years in search of his brother and nephew, so he guessed 50% of Jimo Qiu's identity.

The reason why it is 50% is because Xun Ding is not yet sure whether this young man is Gong Xiqiu's brother or Gong Xiqiu's nephew.

A piece of hot knowledge——

The specific age of a cultivator is difficult to judge from their appearance.

No matter how much Gong Xiqiu disliked the title "Second Brother", he had to pinch his nose and endure it: "He is the eldest brother's son."

Jimo Qiu nodded: "Jimo Qiu, whose courtesy name is Shaobai."

Xun Ding was surprised: "Jimo Qiu? So, the original name should be Gong Xiqiu... But isn't this name the eldest brother?"

The genealogy of the Gongxi clan was handed over to Gongxi Lai by Gongxi Qiu.

Every year after the rainy season, Gongxilai would dry out his family tree to see if there was any damage caused by ants or insects. If there was any damage, he would need someone to repair it. If it could not be repaired, he would have to order a new family tree. Xun Ding often came in and out of her house and helped her tidy it up.

Especially the Gongxi Qiu branch, he remembered it very well.

Gong Xiqiu also had an older brother named Qiu.

In other words, the eldest brother Gongxiqiu was originally called Gongxiqiu. After he became the high priest, his family name was changed from Gongxi to Jimo.

The current name is Jimo Qiu.

How can a father and his son share the same name?

Gong Xiqiu's expression went blank for a moment.

He looked at Jimo Qiu, and Jimo Qiu looked at him.

"Perhaps it's the big brother's expectations for him..."

Xun Ding asked again: "Why didn't eldest brother come back with you?"

After asking, he regretted it.

Gong Xiqiu's face darkened visibly, with a hint of sadness: "Brother, he passed away."

Xun Ding was shocked: "How could this happen? When did it happen?"

Brothers and sisters also need to observe filial piety.

Wouldn't his wedding to Alai be within the period of mourning?

Even if they don't pay attention to this, people will be criticized if this matter gets out. Xun Ding can't help but feel a headache when he thinks that everything is ready and the only thing left is the wedding. For a moment, I didn’t know how to tell Gong Xi Lai, I was so worried.

Gong Xiqiu's answer made Xun Ding despair.

This happened two months ago.

Two months ago, needless to say, I was still in the period of filial piety.

Xun Ding was worrying about what excuse he should use to explain to the guests when he canceled the wedding at short notice, and suddenly something was wrong in his mind.

"Are you sure...it was two months ago?"

Gong Xiqiu raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean?"

Xun Ding quickly reassured: "No, no, second brother, I don't have any disrespectful thoughts. I just want to verify the time. Are you sure it was two months ago? Is this the right time?"

Gong Xiqiu: "Yes, the exact date is within a few days."

After saying that, he saw Xun Ding's expression was suspicious.

He asked: "Xun Yong'an, what do you want to say?"

Xun Ding was puzzled: "Is there any misunderstanding here? I remember Ah Lai said that your clan's life lamp can't go wrong, right? As long as people are still alive in the world and their breath is not extinguished, the life lamp will not go out. I started the final preparations for the wedding a month ago, took a month and a half of wedding leave in advance, and made a special trip with Ah back and forth to the Gongxi clan place to inform my father-in-law and mother-in-law about the wedding... Ahem, we went to that place specifically There are still two lights on in the secret room where the life lamp is enshrined.”

Without the high priest, Gong Xi Lai’s life lamp could not be made.

Half a year ago, there were still three life lamps in the secret room.

Two lights were strong and dazzling, but one was so weak that it would not be extinguished, like a candle in the wind. The last time I looked, there were only two lamps left, and the other one had been extinguished. In the past few years, Gong Xi Lai has relied on the status of his life lamp to judge Gong Xi Qiu's situation.

Gong Xiqiu: "..."

Xun Ding added: "I remember that your eldest brother has been away from home for many years. Even if he has children, the children's life lanterns are not enshrined in the secret room. So the two life lanterns now are, one is yours and the other is the eldest brother's. Brother The life lamp was still on a month ago."

This conflicts with the information that Gong Xiqiu said that his eldest brother died two months ago: "Second brother, did you see with your own eyes that your eldest brother was gone?"

Gong Xiqiu shook his head under the gaze of Xun Ding and Jimo Qiu.

Gong Xiqiu, who had pigtails all over his head, was now full of questions. He forced himself to recall that scene, his hands still shaking uncontrollably: "Brother, eldest brother... I rushed over, but eldest brother was dead, with no bones left, only There are some remnants of clothing left.”

I came back from this trip, firstly for Gong Xilai's wedding, and secondly, to build a tomb for my eldest brother. The eldest brother was homeless when he was alive. After his death, he should return to his roots and be with his clan.

Jimo Qiu was listening and tilted his head.

He has no impression of his father.

But Gong Xiqiu's words didn't sound right to him.

Xun Ding: "You want to see a person when you are alive, and you want to see a corpse when you die. Since you didn't see the body, why are you sure that your eldest brother is dead?"

Gong Xiqiu's eyes turned red: "But I saw eldest brother's Soul-Residing Tree! It's unique to the clan, how could I admit my mistake! The Soul-Residing Tree is an existence that was born based on the bones of the clan members. If it is there, Big Brother is there! Brother is right there, how could he admit his mistake!"

He was a little emotional.

Seeing this, Xun Ding did not dare to continue stimulating.

Unexpectedly, Jimo Qiu on one side tilted his head in confusion.

"Is the soul-bearing tree you mentioned in an underground palace?"

"Well, I also found my eldest brother's relics there..." Gong Xiqiu took out a neatly folded handkerchief from his arms, which contained several pieces of broken cloth stained with blood. The blood stains were no longer bright red.

Jimo Qiu felt that this kind of fabric looked vaguely familiar.

After thinking about it for a moment, doesn’t it look familiar?

"The soul-bearing tree in the underground palace was transformed by my teacher."

"Your teacher is your father, my eldest brother!"

Jimo Qiu said: "But the teacher's name is different from mine. His name is Jimo Yu. I originally thought you were the old son of the teacher's mother, but - there seems to be some misunderstanding between us."

Xun Ding: "..."

The scene before me was a bit dramatic.

Gong Xiqiu is looking for the wrong person?

No, these two are related by blood at first glance.

Focusing on eating the melon, Xun Ding forgot about the remaining pain in his body. He watched Gong Xiqiu open his mouth and couldn't hold in a fart for a long time. The other party seemed to have suffered some kind of serious injury. Gong Xiqiu was still murmuring in a daze: "No, it's impossible - why can't you be my nephew? You look so much like me, look at it, it's 70-80% similar!"

After saying that, he captured Xun Ding and identified their faces.

"...Um, second brother, is there a possibility that the eldest brother is not dead, and this person in front of me is the eldest brother? After all, the life lamp of the clan does not lie, and the life lamp of the eldest brother is still burning."

Gong Xiqiu: "..."

Jimo Qiu: "..."

Gong Xiqiu breathed heavily and looked at Jimo Qiu with cautious expectation: "Shaobai, how old are you?"

"The teacher said I should be eighteen years old..."

Gong Xiqiu slapped Xun Ding on the shoulder and said angrily: "Listen, eighteen years old is still eighteen in vain. Can my parents give me a brother who is so many years younger than me?"

Xun Ding, who was almost injured internally: "..."

Looking at Gong Xiqiu's angry back, Xun Ding rubbed his shoulders: "Gong Xi Feng'en, this bitch is so ruthless. Even if you are not his eldest nephew or his eldest brother, you must be similar to him with your appearance. Relationship, why did he fall out?"

Big Brother's life light is on, shouldn't he be happy?

Jimo Qiu restored his injuries.

"It's cruel to give hope and then crush it."

Xun Ding muttered: "How can he have such nerves? I thought he would be able to calm down after finding his relatives, but now that he found out that he was looking for someone wrong, he will definitely go crazy to look for him again. How can he look for someone in such a big world?"

A guess emerged in Jimo Qiu's mind.

"Perhaps we have found it."

Xun Ding looked over and asked, "What do you mean, little brother?"

Jimo Qiu arched his eyebrows, smiled gently and harmlessly, and said: "Perhaps, I am really his eldest brother. The teacher said that I was eighteen years old, but I don't know it. That's because I had many years before I followed the teacher, and my mind was confused and I didn't know how old I was. , and my body has been fixed at the age of six for some reasons. It was the teacher who helped me open up some of the restrictions, and my body was able to grow normally."

People's ages are consistent.

His age is segmented.

Xun Ding was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth. He looked at the direction in which Gong Xiqiu left angrily, and then at Jimo Qiu who looked like a normal person. He stamped his feet anxiously: "In that case, go and explain to him quickly. Gong Xiqiu has no brains." Erliang, I’m afraid he will do something stupid!”

Jimo Qiu said: "There's no hurry."

Xun Ding: "..."

He put away his wooden stick: "I also need time to accept it."

He needs time to digest the fact that the second uncle he has accepted is not actually his second uncle but has become his younger brother.

Gong Xiqiu will not run away.

Xun Ding: "..."

The brain circuits of strange species are indeed very different from ordinary people.

Jimo Qiu's eyes flashed with a hint of cunning: "Actually, to prove my relationship with him, it's very simple, just use a life-checking lamp."

The life lamp is an ever-burning lamp that is lit by the owner's breath. It cannot be extinguished by wind blowing or pouring water, and this breath comes from the soul itself. If they were really brothers and not uncles and nephews, the ever-bright lamp belonging to Jimo Qiu in the clan would stay on forever for him.

Xun Ding thought of Gong Xiqiu's brain.

Disdain: "Does he want to be this heavy?"

Jimo Qiu said: "He is very smart."

I'm just not sure when I'll think of it.

"The most important thing right now is your marriage to Alai..." Jimo Qiu originally wanted to say "Aunt Alai", but now there are doubts about his identity and seniority, so he calls him by his first name, "There is no rush to verify, everything must be done for the newlyweds." Give Way."

Xun Ding almost cried when he heard such gentle words.

Listen, this is the magnanimity an uncle should have.

"If you are really sure, I will see you again."

Xun Ding: "..."

With all this commotion, the sky turned a fish belly white.

Xun Ding had a good idea of ​​Gong Xiqiu's temper, but he was still blank about Jimo Qiu, who was suspected of being his uncle. In addition, the other party's face was so tender that he forgot his shape for a moment. He put his arm around his shoulders and said in his voice: "Brother Shaobai , are you hungry? Treat you to something delicious."

Know thyself, ever-victorious.

You're only eighteen years old, and you still don't have a handle on it!

Jimo Qiu didn't reject this kind of closeness. Shaochong was usually even more informal than this. Xun Ding knew all the delicious food in the capital: "Brother Shaobai, let me tell you, this porridge shop has the most authentic taste among all the porridge shops in the capital. I usually get up late and can't get it. One bowl. Her pork cakes are made with a unique secret recipe. Sprinkle a little on it and the taste will be delicious!"

The two were drinking porridge at a breakfast shop.

Just after taking a few sips, a commotion came from the main road in the capital.
