If I don't have money to go to college, I can only go to slay the dragon.

"Are you kidding me?"

The first person to report the crime was not Li Hueyue, nor Li Hueyue's mother, nor Lin Nian.

Naturally, the first person to be offended and angry at this decision, which was no different from a bolt from the blue, was Sima Xuxu, who had nothing to do with him. The confusion when talking about oneself, the uncontrollable anger when one finally realizes what happened, or what is about to happen.

"Ancestor, do you know what you are talking about?" To describe this young boy as furious is not an exaggeration. It seems that he is indeed offended. Anyone who sees his current appearance will be surprised. He has always been a good person. The boy who had a bad temper and laughed out loud would actually bang the table and argue with his ancestor. You must know that the person who is usually most afraid of his elders is him.

Lin Nian was not surprised that Sima Xuxu's emotions suddenly broke out. From the attitudes of the two of them when Sima Xuxu came into contact with Li Hueyue in the courtyard, it was not difficult to see that this young and excessive boy faced him with an attitude of admiration. Li Huanyue, the senior.

Lin Nian may not know if there are other emotions hidden in this admiration, but he thinks that the boy he feels directly conveys that warm emotion all the time. If it were on the battlefield, Sima Xuxu might not hesitate to help Li Huoyue blocked a fatal bullet.

Now the old man across the table mentioned a very sensitive topic, a topic that related to Sima Xuxu and Li Hueyue, a topic that could even instantly turn the two people's positions into opposition, causing them to be permanently hostile or even hostile.

Regarding this kind of topic, it is not difficult to understand Sima Xuxu's anger and excitement, because this boy understands better than Lin Nian what the inheritance of "Yue" means and represents, and he cannot accept that that kind of thing will happen. In Li Hueyue's case, he would actually become the beneficiary of such a cruel thing?

This touched the bottom line of Sima Xuxu, and the sudden attack and defeat naturally caused him to lose control.

Taken for granted?

In response to Sima Xuxu's excitement, the ancestor of the Sima family just said one word slowly:

"The eyes have no dignity."

The historian wrote, Li Huanyue lowered his eyes, and Qian Man opened his mouth slightly and then closed it.

"Ancestor, now is not the time to talk about being disrespectful. Is that what you just said about letting Sister Huoyue resign?" Sima Xuxu's emotions had overtaken his reason. He stood up from the stone table and even stood up. Go around and confront the orthodox old man face to face.

But the moment he made the step, Patriarch Sima lowered his eyes slightly.

A loud roar, then the wind.

Sima Xuxu suddenly felt a huge force hitting his back. It was as powerful as a mountain, making him feel a strong sense of suffocation with difficulty breathing! The force penetrated his back and entered his sternum, making a muffled sound that made his ears buzz. The rapid changes in chest pressure affected the normal pumping of blood in his eyes, causing his eyes to turn black and blind!

But at the first moment, he didn't fall down like that. Instead, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Lin Nian. When he found Lin Nian sitting peacefully on the chair and looking sideways at him silently, he suddenly realized who it was. Hands on him.

Li Huanyue stood up at some point. When he retracted his hand, he saw that Sima Xuxu, who was stooped and unbalanced but managed to stand still, actually withstood the first impact. She raised her hand and threw out a whip-like blow. Hit, hit the boy in the back of the head, the heavy and wonderful power penetrated the head and carried out a fatal transmission!

Sima Xuxu, who was already unsteady, suffered a heavy blow to the head and began to fall over. The brain in his skull was inevitably shaken. That is the most vulnerable part of the hybrid species. Even if the bones and muscles are strengthened by dragon blood to be comparable to alloy , but with this miraculous skill, he directly interfered with the brain and easily knocked down a powerful hybrid.

Normally, in fighting techniques, a concussion would be caused by hitting the jaw. For Li Hueyue, as long as she touches the enemy's head, and as long as the enemy has a humanoid biological structure, she can kill the enemy with one blow. This is a truly ancient and practical martial art. If Sima Xuxu had been anyone else, he would have been completely killed by this blow, but now he can still retain some consciousness.

The only stone table that Sima Xuxu could see in his dazed sight came closer to him for some reason. It was not because of the imbalance of gravity, but because he fell down, and his whole body fell on the table, and the back of his head was hit by the horse behind him. Li Huoyue, who was walking steadily, pressed hard and hit the table with a harsh bang. His hands were immediately cut behind his back and his wrists were locked, and his legs that were hanging by the table were also stepped on and their fragile joints could not move.

Pure martial arts binding methods, unless the strength of the person being restrained exceeds the number of those who are restrained, breaking free can only be an unrealistic fantasy.

In just two breaths, Li Huoyue pinned the boy who was regarded as the new future by Lang Juxu to death on the table. The other boy had no power to fight back. It was impossible to say whether it was the difference in strength or trust that led to this. The occurrence of tragic events.

"Xiao Xu, I won't do anything else after I go back today. Character and respect for the family are the top priority. Go to the Shuzhong library to find the original version of "The Classic of Filial Piety" and copy it from beginning to end ten times. , Don’t take another step outside the clan before you finish cultivating your character and character." The Sima clan leader behind the stone table said in a low voice while looking at Sima Xuxu, whose face was close to the stone table.

Sima Xuxu was unable to speak as he was pressed on the table. Li Huoyue behind him exerted great force. When he hit the white marble table with heavy pressure, if the stone table was not thick, the force of that moment would have been able to crush him. Collapse the whole table.

The huge force made his whole face press against the table. Lin Nian could even hear the squeezing sound between the bridge of the boy's nose and the white marble table. It was the sound of bones about to break, even if he had been subdued. , Li Huoyue was also maintaining a little bit of extra force, and the bright red blood flowed down the smooth stone table, staining the cheeks that were twisted by the force.

This was not torture, but a kind of punishment, but Lin Nian, who was silent, didn't know the extent of this punishment.

This quiet and terrifying scene lasted for half a minute. The boy on the table was in severe pain, but he did not scream but only trembled. No one spoke in the courtyard, only the rustling of leaves in the wind.

"If you are willing to accept the punishment, then let me know what you mean." Seeing the blood on the stone table that was about to flow in front of him, the Sima clan leader shook his head slightly as if he couldn't bear it, sighed and said softly.

Lin Nian looked at Sima Xuxu's clasped hands. He guessed that the only thing he could move now were his fingers, right? But he didn't see any trembling in Sima Xuxu's fingers. Instead, the ten fingers were steady and steady when Li Hueyue was about to crush his wrist bones. It was obvious that the pain he was suffering now could make a normal adult scream to the point of his vocal cords. Broken, this actually gave people the feeling that he didn't want any trembling to turn into a sign of weakness.

Sima Xuxu didn't move, and Li Hueyue's force would not stop. The Sima clan leader did not give any sign of stopping, and quietly looked at the blood spreading on the table.

There were fallen leaves floating on the pool of blood and making ripples, the sweet smell of rust floated in the air, and the creepy sound of bones and muscles squeezing the white marble table could be heard in my ears.

Lin Nian finally heard the sound of a broken nose. The historian on one side picked up the book on the table and put it in front of his lap to record it calmly. He was not surprised by this bloody scene. He just faithfully recorded what he saw. Everything was quickly written down in a booklet, just like an outsider.

Li Hueyue's mother, the woman who witnessed her daughter's brutal violence, sat aside and watched the horrifying scene unbearably, but she also did not say anything to stop her. All her reactions were just It is limited to expressions of intolerance.

The ancestor of the Sima family glanced at Li Hueyue indifferently and said nothing.

The force on Li Huoyue's hand continued to increase. This time, it was not just the bridge of his nose. Lin Nian even heard the strange sound of the arms being held back being twisted at an increasingly increasing angle.

No matter how talented Sima Xuxu is, if the joint lock is unscrewed to a certain extent, his arm will be easily torn off. The heart-rending pain will gradually increase, slow and torturous, but that The ten fingers on both hands were still motionless, not even clenched into fists to endure.

He refused.

There was an unbearable silence. In the courtyard covered with fallen leaves, no one spoke. The strange and cold scene continued, and the atmosphere in the air was even more viscous, like the red blood that began to drip down the table.

The "thud" sound was not that the stone table collapsed or that the head was crushed. The skull of a mixed race is harder than ordinary alloys, and it is even difficult for bullets to penetrate completely - Sima Xuxu verified it with his own forehead. At this point, he briefly burst out with a little strength, and suddenly resisted the force on the back of his head and bounced up a little distance, using his forehead as a force point to press against the white marble table, so that even if he was bound, his mouth and nose could be reserved. Location.

When there was an opening, he could speak, so he spoke. Due to excessive bleeding, his lips were a little blurred in the blood, but the people present could still understand what he was saying. The four simple words were full of anger and stubbornness that could not be subdued by the severe pain.

He said: I don't accept it.

"Why bother." The head of the Sima clan sighed deeply and asked in a low voice, "This is a decision that benefits both parties. The final decision reached by the Li clan and the Sima clan after consultation, you think you can overturn it with your own power. ? Xuxu, people must not be self-righteous. This is what I taught you when you were young. Now that you are in your seventh year, your bloodline and excellence along the way have proven your qualifications. The elders and clan leaders are here At the clan meeting at the end of last year, we agreed to allow you to hold the 'moon' ceremony at the end of this year's crowning ceremony. From now on, you will be the orthodox 'Sima Shuangyue', and there are some things that you cannot control your temper."

The old man was not ashamed or angry at the resistance of the young man Sima Xuxu. He seemed to have expected this scene to happen, so he took it indifferently. It was boring and boring, just like a dead tree and a corpse lying in the soil and being gnawed by vultures. Eat, like one day for a hundred years.

In the blood on the stone table, the white marble stone table under Sima Xuxu's forehead made a small crackling sound, but he just repeated the words he just said.

I do not accept.

"You should know that even if your arms are broken by Huoyue today, with your lineage and family's medical level, you will always be unscathed when you open your eyes again. Now your persistence is just adding to the pain. "The voice of the Sima clan leader gradually withered, making people no longer feel the vitality of a living person.

I do not accept.

Still with those four words, Sima Xuxu vividly interpreted the stubborn character. The eyes reflected in the blood in the gap on the table were blood-stained golden pupils.

Li Huoyue continued to use more force on his hands. The Sima clan leader had no intention of letting go. The woman named Qian Man just lowered her eyes and did not look at this scene. The historian was still recording that there was nothing wrong in the pool of blood on the table. The boy in question vented his overwhelming anger in silence.

"It's really troublesome." The Sima clan leader said indifferently looking at the boy on the table.

There was no sympathy in the old man's eyes, only the deathly decay.

The red maple leaves slowly fell from the branches and touched the blood in the center of the stone table. The blood-red ripples with white arc light spread out in circles. Everyone in front of the stone table sat peacefully, as if nothing had happened. Same.

A ball of blood spurted out from the broken soft tissue in the nasal cavity. At some point, Sima Xuxu, who had returned to his seat, fell forward. He covered his mouth and nose with his right hand to stop more blood from spurting out. He was about to knock over the stone. When sitting at the table, Lin Young, who was sitting next to him, gently put his hand on his chest to support him.

Lin Nian, who was motionless on the stone chair, stretched out his hand and gently dragged the boy who was several years younger than himself. He didn't care about the warm arms and sleeves soaked with blood. He just looked up indifferently and looked at the chair. Li Huanyue, whose whole body was tense and holding her lower back with her right hand, and the Sima clan leader opposite, who had his hands crossed and his eyes slightly opened, asked, "So is this the orthodox way of hospitality, a man who uses his own people to perform the surgery?"

"Isn't there a 'Yulu' that is even more outstanding than Xuxu? Shouldn't it be said that it is far superior to the former? It's a dream even to hope for. 'Time Zero'?" The laughter of the Sima clan leader was like the wind blowing over a dead old man. The trees chirped, "Top Gun comes from a young boy. It's hard to imagine that Orthodoxy once missed such outstanding talents and went overseas. This is a mistake made by Orthodoxy."

"I don't want to control how you punish people in your own family and what kind of rules you have. This is your own business. But if you do this in front of me as an outsider, isn't it a little too disrespectful? Again? Or maybe I said it directly?" Lin Nian looked directly at the Sima clan leader and asked calmly, "Do you orthodox look down on me too much?"

"Where are you talking?" The Sima clan leader slowly stood up. He stood up, and the historian, Xian Man, and Li Huoyue stopped sitting and stood up together.

Yan Man went to help the old man, but the old man pushed his hand and said no need. He looked at Lin Nian across the white marble table, suddenly bent his waist and saluted, and said in a calm and unwavering voice, "If you are an orthodox visitor, I feel offended, it’s our fault, it’s also our fault for letting our distinguished guests see such a disgusting scene, since there is a mistake, we will naturally be punished.”

After he finished speaking, Lin Nian suddenly appeared next to Li Hueyue. It was like skipping a frame. No one saw how he moved. When the eyes found him again, his right hand had been raised high, and he was holding on tightly. He grabbed Li Hueyue's wrist.

Li Huoyue's imprisoned hand suddenly held a light and simple dark gold double-edged thorn. She didn't know where she was hiding it in her beautiful clothes. If Lin Nian hadn't restrained her wrist, I'm afraid This murder weapon has already seen redness, and the target of the redness will not be anyone else, it will only be the "person who deserves punishment" as the old man calls it.

Li Huoyue. It was her move on Sima Xuxu that made this meeting famous. If we want to investigate, the person who was disrespectful to the guests was never the Sima clan leader, because when Sima Xuxu offended the clan leader, the old man never said anything. Despite verbal orders and punishments, it was Li Hueyue who suppressed Sima Xuxu by taking unauthorized actions from beginning to end, resulting in an ugly situation.

The head of the Sima clan raised some heads that were bowing to apologize, and looked at Lin Nian who had stopped Li Hueyue's movement. He seemed not to have thought that Lin Nian could be so quick, and the whole situation was instantly suppressed on the table.

Maybe the original story will continue according to some people's plans, but from now on, if Lin Nian decides to interfere, then the original plan should be swept under the table and buried in the soil.

Li Huoyue stared straight ahead without looking at Lin Nian with an expressionless face. Zian Man stood at the white marble table with her head lowered and her hands holding the corners of her clothes, unable to see her expression clearly. Sima Xuxu wanted to stand up and stop all this, but because of The injury was too serious and he almost fell to the ground before he could recover. He could only hold down the stone table with one hand and bend his waist to spurt out blood.

Lin Nian saw all this in his eyes. He was silent for a moment, and then pressed down Li Huoyue's arm that was holding the double-edged thorn little by little. It was an absolutely irresistible distance, even if Li Huoyue He also slowly looked at the boy next to him. Pulled by the incredible force, he placed the murder weapon in the pool of blood on the table, retreated little by little and sat on the chair.

After Lin Nian finished all this, he let go of Li Hueyue's wrist, turned around and sat back in the chair, and said calmly, "You said I am a distinguished guest, so do I have the face to pretend that everything before has never happened? Let's talk about it." Let’s talk about it from the beginning now.”

"Of course I have to give face to distinguished guests, especially your face." The Sima clan leader sat back on his chair, and under his dead eyes, the others also sat down again.

"I want to know how much face I have."

"It's bigger than you think, and much bigger." The Sima clan leader showed a disturbing smile.

"If I asked you and Sima Xuxu to apologize, would you do it?"

"If this can gain your friendship and cooperation, we old immortals will naturally do it."

When Lin Nian was about to say something, Sima Xuxu beside him gently grabbed the corner of his clothes under the table. Their eyes did not meet, but Lin Nian understood what the boy meant.

That is prayer.

"Let's talk about the ritual issue of 'moon'. What does it mean to inherit 'moon'? I thought that each generation of 'moon' is cultivated from birth, or it is prepared from before birth. How can it be possible?" "Inherit." Lin Nian responded to Sima Xuxu's request and returned the topic to the blood red on the stone table.

"It seems that you also know a little bit about the 'Moon' plan, but you don't seem to know much." The old man said, "This is a long story."
