Into Xuancheng Xianxian, From Not Being A Son-In-Law

[Choice 1: Everything is the same, but the kitchen is far and near; the sea is calm, so why bother chasing the wind and waves. Reward: Shed from the storm. Destiny stirred up waves, and I avoided them. It rained drizzle again, and I held up an umbrella until the spring blossoms bloomed. I also turned my back to the sea... I am who I am, and I never stand on the spotlight insulator in the center of the stage! 】

[Choice 2: Things are as usual, there are good and evil in temples; there are hidden rocks and dangerous shoals, and the truth will always come out. Reward: Kill the dragon document. The dragon is a big monster in the water. It retreats into snakes and insects and then transforms into a dragon. If it is good, it will spread clouds and rain, blessing the whole place; if it is evil, it will bring disaster to five grains. It will be violent and eat people. It will retreat into a snake and then transform into a dragon... But no matter how good it is, it will bring disaster to five grains. The meat of Jiao evil dragon is extremely delicious. When cooked with spices for a long time, it can become three white in color. 】

In Xie Bintang's view, Xu Nian, who was silent and thoughtful, was weighing the pros and cons.

This cannot be wrong.

It's just that what Xu Nian is weighing is not whether to escape as soon as possible like the Xie family, but is pondering the two options given by the system.

Choosing a given way to avoid storms is not only about seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune, it is also about avoiding misfortune or good fortune, all at the same time.

The problem is that this is a passive device that is normally on and cannot be turned off.

From then on, not only did he not have the role of the protagonist, but he was not even considered a supporting role, and even the background board was almost meaningless. After all, in good works, the background will change as the plot progresses, but the main theme of Sheltering Waves is a quiet and peaceful time.

Every day is exactly the same quiet and beautiful.

If you have made up your mind and just want to live a peaceful life, this is a good choice.

The second choice of Dragon Killing Document is Confucianism and Taoism Magic Treasures.

It needs to be motivated by arrogance.

If in the hands of other Taoist practitioners, this would still be a problem that needs to be solved, but with Xu Nian possessing the awe-inspiring Qi gifted from the sages in the cultivation forest of Youlu Academy, this would not be a problem.

The purpose of the Dragon Killing Document is as highlighted in the name of Magic Treasures.

Cut Jiao.

If you have to use it to chop off a pig's head, it's okay to chop off a chicken, duck, etc., but it's just not as effective as the Jiao.

In short...this Magic Treasures special attack on Jiao!

However, in addition to the rewards of the two options, the system will pop up and give Xu Nian a multiple-choice question at this time. This itself already explains the problem. I am afraid that Xie Bintang has no evidence and is based on his intuition and is not suspicious.

If what the two account books and Dou Jiangliu revealed was the truth, wouldn't it have already come to light and option two has been completed?

There is no need for Xu Nian to make any choice here.

After thinking about it, Xu Nian said softly: "Thank you so much, Third Master, for reminding me. I will be careful."

Thank you for your kindness.

What are you careful about?

Of course there is the risk behind this.

But if you follow Xie Bintang's advice and just leave, why should you be careful?

Obviously, he still wanted to continue investigating.

Regardless of his position or friendship, Xie Bintang was not qualified to persuade Xu Nian. Even one sentence of advice was a bit over the line. Since Xu Nian made the decision to continue the investigation after careful consideration for a while, he would not persuade him a second time.

However, it is one thing not to persuade, but it does not prevent Xie Bintang from being a little confused.

I don’t understand why Xu Nian continues.

The reason why Xu Huacheng was killed seemed to be because of some old grudge between Miss Zhang and Xu Huacheng.

But Xu Huacheng is dead, and the old grudges are over.

The reason behind the investigation of Xifenglou's activities was just because Xu Huacheng left a trouble before his death. But if it was to avoid danger and to be able to deal with it early, it would be enough to investigate like the Xie family. .

If we continue, we will easily get involved in even greater troubles.

Why bother?

Of course Xu Nian wanted to get the system reward of killing the dragon document, but Xie Bintang didn't ask him why.

Even ask.

It is definitely impossible to explain the system, and I will only make up a reason on the spot.

However, Xie Bintang also found a reason for Xu Nian. After a brief doubt, he suddenly thought of the little girls he had seen earlier who had their tongues cut off and were treated as dishes for guests in Xifeng Tower.

Could it be... seeking justice for the misfortune of these little girls?

Ever since.

The third master of the Xie family, who had been reading articles since he was a child, knew the meaning of righteousness. Even though he could not implement the moral principles left in the books by the sages, this did not prevent him from admiring the righteous people.

He bent down from the bottom of his heart and bowed deeply.

Xu Nian, who is still thinking about system selection, is a bit confused about this.

You are so good, why do you suddenly give me such a gift?

After Xie Bintang straightened up, he said softly with emotion: "Although Xie is not as good as Master Xu, it is difficult for him to advance and retreat together with Master Xu, but he is still willing to do his best. Those little girls in Xifeng Tower, if Master Xu is still here, If you have to worry about placement, leave it to the Xie family."

Xu Nian felt that Mr. Xie must have misunderstood something, but neither he nor Zhang Tiantian had figured out how to deal with these little girls in Xifeng Building in just one day.

Take them back to the capital together?

Baihuai Hall is not a charity hall, and there is no need to recruit people at all.

Leave it to the government in Tianshui City?

If these little girls hadn't been sold to the nursery in Xifeng Tower, they would have had no relationship with the eldest prince, so this would have been an option.

The Xie family suddenly became kind-hearted and willing to take over these homeless little girls who had nowhere to go. This undoubtedly saved Xu Nian and Zhang Tiantian a lot of trouble and did a good thing.

Xu Nian thought for a moment: "Bring them to Xie's house, how will Mr. Xie treat them?"

Xie Bintang did not make extravagant promises about the favorable life conditions for these little girls who were already disabled, but said truthfully: "It won't be too good."

"Although we will teach them some crafts, if they fail to learn any skills or show any talent, they will probably be a maid in the Xie family in the future. They will not be able to talk about fine clothing and food, and they will inevitably suffer from some cowardice when doing things. , and may even be looked down upon by other servants because of his experience in Xifeng Tower."

"But even if it is to protect the family's face, since they have taken them over, the Xie family will at least provide them with a shelter from the wind and rain, so that they will not live on the streets and starve to death."

Xu Nian nodded slightly: "Then I'll trouble you, Third Master Xie."

If the Xie family can do this, it is enough.

These little girls in Xifeng Tower are not from the Xie family, so do they still expect the Xie family to provide for them?

And say something unpleasant.

Being able to be a maid in the Xie family is a wish that many poor women have not been able to ask for.

I actually don’t think I can be chosen by the Xie family’s young master, and then climb up the branches and become Phoenix. That is a plot that only appears in the story. It only talks about the wages and benefits the Xie family pays to the maid, but it is actually better than other livelihoods. A bit taller.

And if the normal rules of the Xie family were followed, a girl with a physical disability would not be chosen at all.

Besides, they are all dumb.

If you can't speak, it will inevitably be inconvenient to do things.

It was for Xu Nian's sake that Xie Bintang was able to say this.

Or more utilitarian.

It is such a kind act to bring the relationship between the Xie family closer to the righteous Xu Nian.

As for whether what Xie Bintang said can be done.

Xu Nian is not worried.

Third Master Xie is obviously a smart person, as long as he doesn't make any mistakes, I believe he won't let those little girls who have a place in Xie's house because of him have any big troubles.

Xie Bintang acted unequivocally.

After he left Xifeng Building with Dou Jiangliu's body, within half an hour, the steward of the Xie family brought people to Xifeng Building, greeted Xu Nian politely, and took him away. Those little girls who were sold here from the Yogyakarta in the capital.

I don't know if I remembered some similar experiences. The little girls were a little anxious when they were taken away, but they were illiterate and unable to speak, so naturally they didn't understand much reason, and verbal comfort and explanation were of little use.

But presumably after arriving at Xie's house, although it is inevitable that they still have to serve others, they will always feel the difference, and then they will gradually feel at ease, gradually settle down, and get a shelter in this world.

If anyone still doesn't want to stay after knowing what they are doing in Xie's house, Xie Bintang also told Xu Nian that Xie's family will not force people to stay, and will only pay for them according to Xie's rules for dismissing maids. To the final act of kindness.

Incidentally.

In Xifeng Building, there are more than 20 little girls who pretend to be "special dumb dishes" on the menu, because Xu Huacheng doesn't care about their lives at all. According to Liang Xiaoer, even if the guests go too far on a whim If people play badly, it's just an extra sum of money.

It depends on where it is disabled, whether it is a broken limb or a toe, or it is disfigured or crazy.

Prices vary.

It's easier to die.

Just pay four times the menu price.

For example, for a rare dish, the menu price is 50 taels, and an extra 200 taels will do.

Not a small sum.

But the two hundred and two taels naturally went into Xu Huacheng's pocket. As for the deceased, he didn't even have a coffin. He just wrapped it in straw mats and dug a pit outside the city and buried it hastily. If he died in a short time More than one, that is nothing more than digging a big pit and burying them together.

Under this kind of treatment, one can imagine how the little girls in Xifeng Tower will be treated. One of them has more or less physical problems. I was idle at home, and I showed these little girls their physical condition, and even boiled a pot of medicinal soup.

Don't say anything about a bowl of dragon essence and tiger fierceness, at least they all feel better.

But apart from the psychological scars, Zhang Tiantian, whose tongue was cut off, was left with nothing to do. Although the wound left by the severed tongue was not deep, is it a question of whether the wound is deep or not?

The point here is that it's broken.

Missing tongue.

Although the injury of a missing tongue is much milder than that of missing arms and legs, the difficulty of growing it back is exactly the same, and it also belongs to the category of regeneration of severed limbs.

difficult.

Not to mention that these little girls are ordinary people who have never practiced before, and their already weak bodies can bear extremely limited potency of the medicine. Even warriors with strong qi and blood are also useless. What is missing is what is missing, and it is difficult to grow back.

Either the Realm is tall enough, tall enough to reshape the Realm of the body.

Or you have to rely on rare treasures that are hard to come by.

As these unfortunate little girls were picked up and resettled by the Xie family, Xifeng Building, which had been closed to guests since yesterday, soon disappeared. Except for Xu Nian and Zhang Tiantian, the only ones left behind were locked up. Liang Xiaoer in the warehouse.

Other guys from Xifeng Building?

Yesterday, I saw something was wrong. Whether it was because of a guilty conscience or simply fear, every one of the other guys had already run away. Zhang Tiantian only targeted Xu Huacheng and ignored them at all.

Only Liang Xiaoer, an unlucky guy like him, bumped into Xu Nian and Zhang Tiantian, and was given a private room in the warehouse that was used to keep dumb dishes.

After Liang Xiaoer confessed everything, he was still eagerly waiting for Zhang Tiantian, who had promised to seriously consider letting him live, to let him go.

As a result, I didn't see anyone again after looking forward to it all day.

My stomach is full of hunger.

It's not that he has never yelled before, but no matter how loud he made it, he couldn't get any response at all. It was no use until his voice became hoarse. He couldn't help but have an extremely bad idea.

Could it be that... I have been forgotten?

Liang Xiaoer remembered that there was a mute dish in the past. The room was in a remote location and he was too weak to make a big noise, so he forgot to deliver meals for several days. When he remembered it later, he was already lying on the bed dying and could not be saved. .

The edges of the bed board were chewed up and full of traces of teeth.

The gaps between the teeth were filled with sawdust.

During times of famine, hungry people would also eat tree bark.

But it is obvious that although trees and other things can increase the spiritual energy of mountains and rivers, they cannot live long if they enter people's stomach.

In this inhospitable room, Liang Xiaoer was alone and even felt like he was the only one left in the world. He thought about starving to death after being forgotten by him, and even causing him to become mute after being scolded by Master Xu. Cai, suddenly felt extremely panicked.

He looked at the few furniture in the room and the wooden bed board that was not only crude but also a bit moldy. He wondered if he would chew on the bed board when he was starving.

And then, like that mute, chewing up the bed board to no avail... and eventually starving to death?

But Liang Xiaoer's situation is actually not that bad.

Zhang Tiantian has a very good memory and has not forgotten him. However, after thinking about it over and over again, he felt that it would be better for Liang Xiaoer to die.

Break your promise?

She didn't.

She promised Liang Xiaoer to seriously consider letting her live. She did seriously consider it, but the result was different from what Liang Xiaoer expected...

It's night time.

The cool autumn wind blew into Xifeng Tower, seeming to bring a touch of night in, quietly entering Xu Huacheng's room. This touch of night expanded, outlining the plump and enchanting body lines, It turned into a shadow.

"Even if it's closed, why is there no one here?"

"Forget it, find the account book quickly..."

"It's not in the desk or under the bed. Where could it be placed..."

After rummaging around and finding nothing, the Daoist figure wanted to look for the corner that he had not missed when suddenly a cough sounded next to his ears.

The hairs on her hair stood up, and almost instantly, the magic power lingered in her palms, filling the air with the smell of decay.

It's just that before the power of the curse has fully burst out, the world has already turned into a cage.

Ruthless suppression.
