Hao Qi and Zhang Heng met Su Shiyan's family members the next day. Although Su Shiyan only mentioned the remaining four internal power realms in the family, her two uncles and two older brothers, the Su family actually sent a large army of more than 20 people, among which the weakest were those close to the quasi-internal power realm. Except for the five internal power realms, there were seven quasi-internal power realms, and the rest were all warriors close to the quasi-internal power realm. From this, it can be seen that the Su family's strength is worthy of being a large family, with a strength background far exceeding that of the Li family in the Blue Shadow Republic. At the same time, it can be seen that the Su family attaches importance to this action.
I don’t know what Su Shiyan said to her tribe members that night. The Su family did not disturb Hao Qi and Zhang Heng’s joining, but the reaction was quite cold and did not even have the most basic politeness of the warriors. Especially Su Shiyan’s two brothers seemed to be hostile to Hao Qi, but there was no attack in the end, and there was no pretentious slap plot like in the novel. This made Hao Qi, who was already slightly expectant, feel inexplicably disappointed.
"It must be a cousin, right?" Zhang Heng said after signaling Hao Qi to Hao Qi for a moment, and then he was wrapped by Hao Qi's internal force so that his words would not be transmitted to other people's ears.
"What's wrong with cousin?" Hao Qiluo asked with a strange look.
"Don't you know?" Zhang Heng asked in surprise: "Many nobles of big families usually intermarry internally, such as cousin, cousin, etc., to ensure that the internal power realm will not flow out. When you are alive, you simply believe in the saying that the blood of the offspring of the internal power realm will be more pure. This has become the norm in the eyes of many nobles of aristocrats. Don't you know?"
"Why should I know?"
Hao Qi was suddenly a little ridiculous, but he had a little understanding of the hostility of the two brothers Su Shiyan, but he didn't care. This line was to repay Su Shiyan's kindness. The grace of a meal was enough to repay life and death. He would not regret it if he promised a thousand gold. As for those people in the Su family... why should he take it to heart?
After everyone gathered, it was obvious that the Su family's departure preparations had been completed, so the Su family took the lead in riding the Dutu Beast and left the port. Hao Qi and Zhang Heng didn't say much, and also rode the Dutu Beast and followed him. Compared to Hao Qi's dullness, Zhang Heng seemed very angry, as if he was angry with the coldness and indifference of the Su family. At this time, Hao Qi suddenly said to Zhang Heng: "Zhang Heng, I suddenly thought of a statement. Do you want to hear it?"
Zhang Heng was frowning at the indifference of the Su family ahead. After hearing this, he was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's the saying?"
"There is a conversation where one person said that he was not getting along well with another group of people because he came here to work from a poor country. These people seemed to look down on him very much. He felt angry and felt insulted. In short, he was angry because of the other party's indifference, indifference, and said contempt while living. The person he talked to asked him, then what are you going to do? Go and pull their collars and order them, do you have to respect me?"
"Maybe many people hear the first half, that is, the person's appeal, saying that he is from a poor country and is looked down upon by others because of his background, so he is indignant. Many people may resonate with him. But when the person who talks with him says this, that is, he must pull their collars and command them to respect themselves, he will be ridiculous? Yes, whether others can look down on you is their subjective and their thoughts. Why should I care whether they look down on me? Do you really want to pull their collars and command them to respect me? If you do this, or even think like this, isn't that too humble? Even if others can look down on you, you need to order to pray alively. Is it really worth it?"
After saying this, Hao Qi laughed loudly, ignoring the disgusting expression of Su family looking back at him. He just said to Zhang Heng: "Do you remember what I said to you in Baicao Kingdom? Heaven has a healthy mind. A gentleman is self-reliant, self-esteem, self-respect, self-improvement, and self-improvement. That's all. As for whether others can respect me, what does this do with me? Because I don't care at all whether they look down on me, as for the other party slandering me, bullying me, insulting me, laughing at me, despising me, slandering me, slandering me, despising me, slandering me, lying to me, that way..."
"So what should I do?" Zhang Heng asked immediately.
"Of course, he couldn't even recognize him by the fight, otherwise? He really couldn't bear it silently? Hahaha!" Hao Qi laughed again, which once again attracted the glaring eyes of some people in the Su family in front.
At the forefront of the Su family's army, Su Shiyan also heard Hao Qi's hearty laughter, and the corners of her mouth slightly bent. At the same time, a middle-aged and elderly man next to Su Shiyan suddenly said: "Miss Three, you are really reckless. This trip is of great importance. How can you allow outsiders to participate? If you had not told them about the ruins of ancient sects, it would be impossible for them to join in. Now they are not allowed. They must follow them to monitor them...Miss Three, you have done a poor job, and the family will make a decision afterwards, and you must know what to do."
Su Shiyan clasped her fists, but said nothing. The middle-aged and elderly man sighed immediately, but didn't say anything more.
Su Shiyan is an anomaly in the family. As a woman, she is a martial arts genius of the Su family. At the age of fourteen, she used family sword skills, not family sword skills, but family women's highest sword skills. Su's sword dance practiced to the pinnacle level. Afterwards, although her progress was slow and she fell into a bottleneck, it can be clearly seen that her progress did not stop, and her sword skills were still progressing slowly but firmly. The state of returning to nature that transcends to the pinnacle level, which is only possible after training for a lifetime can be seen from afar.
It is precisely because of this that Su Shiyan was a woman who could get a Jade Skin Pill. This is the family’s reward for her talent, and the same... it is also the shackles that the family is worried about her talent...
Although middle-aged and elderly men taught Su Shiyan a lesson in the name of their uncle, in fact, everyone in the family should know all the internal strength realms. Because of the side effects of the Jade Music Pill, the strongest person in the Su family has actually become Su Shiyan in the internal strength realm. If he really put aside his family's seniority, his uncle is not as good as Su Shiyan in the family.
It is precisely because of this that Su Shiyan's behavior was accused of. Although he was only wary of Hao Qi and Zhang Heng, Hao Qi and Zhang Heng did participate in this action, which was also caused by Su Shiyan's invisible status.
The entire team was separated by at least fifty meters in front and behind. Hao Qi and Zhang Heng didn't care, especially Zhang Heng calmed down after hearing what Hao Qi said before. As the Su family team kept moving forward, after leaving the port city of Salan, the army entered the desert. However, because the desert here is close to the seaside, it is estimated that there will be some rainfall, so there are still some desert plants. As the team advances, from morning to dusk in the afternoon, the Su family team found a smooth sandy place, set up a tent there, and prepared a bonfire. When the smoke of the bonfire rose to the sky, especially when the background of the desert was the afterglow of the slow setting sun, Hao Qi finally understood the artistic conception of the poem "Single smoke in the desert and the setting sun in the long river". He was stunned when he looked at the scenery in front of him for a moment.
Zhang Heng built a tent next to him exhaustedly. Seeing Hao Qi in a daze, he was so angry that he didn't hit him, and punched Hao Qi from behind and said, "Stop looking! Your girl Su is still combing her luggage in the tent, why don't you enter her tent to see enough?"
"Don't make trouble." Hao Qi laughed and scratched his head with a little embarrassment, "Miss Su and I are innocent... Don't look at me with this kind of eyes. In short, I am still in love with her now, and she is still polite. Moreover, her family's bond is too deep, and it is almost impossible for me and her to be together, so don't talk nonsense."
Zhang Heng raised his eyes and looked at the Su family camp, which was clearly distinguished from them a hundred meters away, and sighed: "Indeed, she was too bound by the family. Today, she didn't say a word to us, which is obvious."
"Are you blaming her? I didn't say a word to us today." Hao Qi looked at Zhang Heng and asked.
"There is one thing, but when you think of the faces of the people in the Su family, it is probably difficult for her to do it." Zhang Heng said frankly.
Hao Qi immediately laughed, sat on the sand, and smiled silently, and after a long time, he said, "No, it probably has nothing to do with the face of the Su family. Although I knew her in the days after college, I know her a little about her character. She is a lady with a chivalrous spirit, and a daughter with a heroic spirit... I guess the reason why she didn't say a word to us is because she trusted us, just as we trusted her and would not look down on us like the Su family. This is probably..."
"Silent trust."
