Chapter 1 Good Boys, Bad Boys(1/2)
In the dark corridor, a crisp and subtle sound of footsteps echoed.
Da, da, da.
Su Xingchi held a lantern emitting orange light and walked alone in the dark corridor.
On both sides of the corridor are black iron fences, and behind the fence is the bottomless darkness.
Darkness that even light cannot penetrate.
At the end of this corridor is an empty cell, or should have been empty.
A small figure rushed over instantly, but was immediately blocked by these black iron fences. She looked at Su Xingji who was carrying the lantern and said happily: "Brother Xiche, you are indeed here!"
"I'm not here, indeed." Su Xingchi looked at the small figure in front of him and sighed, "I came to find you because you are here. My ancestors are almost anxious to find you. Just stay there, what are you doing when you come out to find me!"
The child's voice was slight reprimand.
The small figure paused and looked up at Su Xingchi.
Under the orange lantern, you can see that in the black iron fence, a little girl was imprisoned.
A very young girl looks only two or three years old. She has strange white hair, which is better than silver hair.
These silver-like hairs slid and poured down from her head, just like the turbulence of silver.
"Why are you locked in?" Su Xingchi asked looking at her.
"I, my guard door is open and I come in." The little girl said embarrassedly: "I come in and I close it."
These cages are designed to imprison those powerful monsters, so the entry and exit of normal people will not be triggered.
It's like the trap specially used for catching elephants, where mice can dance on the grave.
But as soon as the little mouse walked in, the trap was shut with a clang.
There is no doubt that there is either the trap.
Or it was the mouse that had a problem.
"Or," the little girl whispered: "Call my mother-in-law to come and help."
"The child should be solved by the child's affairs." Su Xingchi looked at the little girl and said.
As he said this, he reached out and pressed the black iron fence.
It is normal to buy cold like frost and snow, because it is the best black iron with excellent thermal conductivity, and it is also gloomy, bitter and cold underground.
But then, a line of text appeared in front of Su Xingchi.
Black Iron Fence: A fence made of very strong black iron can be used to imprison prisoners of the Phase level, and is of great value.
There is also a line of small words below: This fence cannot complete the task normally because its edges and corners are damaged.
"No wonder it's empty." Su Xingchi nodded, then walked to the corner of the fence. Sure enough, he saw a small gap there.
"Come here." Su Xingchi waved to the other party and led her here.
"Why didn't I find that I can go out here!" The little girl was instantly surprised: "Brother Xiche is so amazing!"
To be honest, if there were no assistance from that thing, this dog hole would be hard to find. Su Xingchi nodded, then reached out to pull the little girl out: "Old ancestors are still waiting for you, let's go out first."
"Well, how did you know I'm here?" the little girl couldn't help but ask curiously on the way.
She is really curious.
It's so deep and so dark, who would have thought that she would be here?
"So that's how did you come here?" Su Xingchi asked back.
"I came out to find you, but I didn't find it, so I asked another brother. They said you were here, so I came in." The little girl said seriously.
"Yes, I just found another brother and asked you that you are here." Su Xingchi sighed and said.
As the two of them said this, they had already walked to the door of the dungeon, and saw a boy with a bruised nose and swollen face pointing at Su Xingchi: "It was this bastard who beat me like this."
Beside him, there were a few teenagers who looked taller and hard to mess with.
"Brother Xiche." The little girl hid behind Su Xingchi in an instant.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid." Su Xingchi touched the little girl's head.
It is soft and slippery, just like a cold water plant.
"You told her that I was here?" Su Xingchi asked looking ahead.
"The person who plays with bastards is also a bastard." The tallest boy in front looked at the little girl and said contemptuously, not intending to answer Su Xingchi's question at all.
When the sunlight outside shone in, you can see that these children, including Su Xingji, all have dazzling blonde hair like gold, and their eyes are like dazzling golden eyes flowing with golden liquid.
But there is only the little girl behind Su Xingchi, with her head covered in silver hair and her eyes timidly golden.
Yes, it's an unquestionable mixed race logo.
"If you want to say something, you can say it again." Su Xingchi looked at him and said expressionlessly.
"People who play with bastards are also bastards." The other party shouted: "If you want to hear, I can say it to you a thousand times and ten thousand times."
"No, it's enough for one." Su Xingchi stretched out his right hand to the other party and opened it.
I saw a small golden crystal in his right hand.
"Old ancestor, you have heard it, right?" Su Xingchi said with a smile.
The little boy's smile is as bright as the sun.
...
...
Walking out of the dungeon and coming to the warm sunshine, the little girl pursed her lips and looked up at Su Xingchi: "Brother Xiche, haven't you said that children should be solved by children?"
"Yes, this is just the first half." Su Xingchi touched the other party's head: "The second half is something that a child cannot solve, so he should ask the adult to solve it."
The boy had no shame at all: "There are so many of them, and they are older than me, so they can't fight. They can't fight in this life. They can only tell their parents and live like they can barely live."
As he said this, the boy turned around and sighed: "Xingxi, I'll tell you again. Before you grow up, don't leave the Wanshou Palace alone, okay?"
"I just want to play with Brother Xiche." Xingxi whispered at the boy, and she looked down at her feet: "Why don't everyone like me? Is it because I am a bad boy?"
It's not because you're a bad boy, it's just because you look different from everyone.
Su Xingchi said in his heart, but the quality of a child is still something that can be changed, while his skin and hair color are destined to be born.
But if you say all this, it would be too cruel.
"They are just jealous of you being good-looking." The boy smiled and said softly, "Our ancestors are still waiting for you, let's go first."
Xingxi looked at Su Xingchi and nodded slowly.
...
...
The ancestor is the ancestor, and the ancestor lives in Wanshou Palace.
This is something that everyone in the entire imperial city knows.
The Wanshou Palace is larger and more exquisite than any palace in this imperial city, and even larger than the Chang'an Palace where Su Xingchi's father lived.
Su Xingchi's father is the current emperor of this St. Empire, but every day he still wants to come to Wanshou Palace to pay tribute to this ancestor.
After all, in the Ster Empire, the ancestors were bigger than any emperor, which is also an open fact.
When Su Xingchi and Xingxi came to Wanshou Palace, the ancestors were indeed waiting for them.
My ancestor is a very beautiful old lady.
It looks very good, and it should not be easy to match with the old lady.
But she is really a very good-looking old lady.
There were many wrinkles on her face, and her original blonde hair gradually turned white at this time, just like reeds slowly losing their luster under the sun.
But she is not like many old ladies who become bloated because of their old age. Standing there, she is like a fallen jade osmanthus tree. Even if the prosperity falls, it makes people feel quiet and peaceful.
"Come here, wait for you for a long time." The old lady waved to Su Xingchi and Xiche, and then hugged Xingxi who came to her: "Are you afraid?"
The old lady asked.
"I'm not afraid if Brother Xiche is by my side." Xingxi said with a smile.
Smiling brightly.
The old lady nodded and looked at Su Xingchi: "Xingxi likes you very much."
Su Xingchi didn't say anything, just nodded.
This old lady is the most noble person in the entire Ster Empire. It is also her who adopted and protected the granddaughter of Xuan, and promised that she could grow up freely and casually in this palace where the strong prey on the weak. Su Xingchi was also happy to get the attention of this old lady, just because compared to his father, this old lady is more worthy of hugging.
In today's Ster Empire, almost every emperor is a descendant of this old lady. Those emperors left this world one by one, but the old lady still lives in her Wanshou Palace like an evergreen tree, with signs of watching the clouds roll and the flowers bloom and fall.
For Su Xingchi's father, he was just one of the emperor's many descendants, especially Su Xingchi's mother was completely unpopular. Apart from the good news that she had not been sent to the cold palace, there was no other good news.
"I called everyone here today to announce something." After a brief greeting with Su Xingchi, the old lady smiled and looked at everyone who came to the hall: "Everyone knows that I am about to celebrate my 300th birthday. I didn't plan to celebrate this birthday. You see, you are older and you will get one year older on a birthday, but everyone doesn't want me, an old man, to keep my arms and legs safe. Since that's the case, I'll just get some benefits for the younger generation."
