Chapter 72: Cool Night Breeze
It was getting dark soon, and the members of the Xia tribe who followed Wen Xinyi came back one by one in a daze. And the battleships also landed one after another because there was no need to threaten them—they chose to stop at the foot of the mountain, and stopped according to the defensive position. The mech fighters lit a bonfire.
The blazing fire was shining brightly. When the Xia clan passed by, the people on both sides looked at each other and saw the jumping red light on each other's faces. They didn't talk or make any sound, they just staggered.
Li Liu hugged his chest and discussed with other partners how to proceed. The Xia Clan has already opened up their territories, they can search as they please, they can look for them as they please, there is no way to back down any further. You can't kill all the Xia people, and then force Teacher Ding to tell where the treasure is hidden, right?
Just grab the treasure, kill all the Xia people... I never dared to think about it. Not to mention that the relationship between the Xia and Hua clans is too deep, even if not, the laws of the Interstellar Federation do not allow mass killings!
The laws left over from the era of the home planet are not suitable for Interstellar, but there is only one "crime against humanity" that still exists. Mass killing of innocent people for personal desires, loss of morality, and inhumanity are absolutely punishable by death.
So after the threat was over, several people started to worry, "Why don't you catch one and ask?"
"Didn't you hear what Teacher Ding said? Common people of the Xia clan don't know the secrets of treasures at all. Comparing your heart, if you know it, you still don't want to do it all." Have you found a way to make yourself a high-ranking person? But look, almost 99% of the Xia people are ordinary people!"
"This group of people is also quite confused. They don't know anything about treasures hidden in their homes! Don't they suspect Is it? Why didn't other people even awaken their supernatural powers, and why did generations of the clan have high-level supernatural powers? If it were me, I would have dug out the secret long ago!"
Li Liu's eyes lit up, "You're right! I I don't believe that the people of the Xia people are all stupid! Especially the young people who are the same age as us, they are not curious at all?"
He led two people and sneaked in secretly, intending to find a young man from the Xia people, as he had promised to Teacher Ding before. , harm no one. It's okay, they don't need to use coercion, can they use temptation instead?
The living conditions in the Xia people's settlements are so bad, I don't believe that these Xia people can bear it after knowing how vast the outside world is and how convenient and comfortable life is!
It's a pity that Li Liu's idea was good, but he chose the most inappropriate timing. Almost all Xia people have suffered a major blow at this moment.
"What kind of manned spacecraft was smashed by Wen Xinyi's fist? My ancestors, it was bought for millions of dollars, a prodigal woman, a prodigal! How could she move her hand!"
"Elder, Senior Wen said that It was bought with her money, and she can drive it if she wants, and smash it if she wants to. If she still wants to, it's okay to buy another one, but she's angry now, and she won't let the Xia clan force her!"
"Prodigal daughter-in-law , stupid guy, not familiar with it..." The elder didn't know what to scold, "Then tell her to go away. She has been with the Chinese people every day for these years, and she has long forgotten the teachings of our ancestors What are you doing here! Tell her to go, I, I will open the ancestral hall and remove her name. She and her descendants will never return to the ancestral hall of the Xia clan to be worshiped by future generations!"
Xia Ding stopped, "Father, is there some misunderstanding? I remember that Aunt Wen spent more than ten years buying this manned spaceship and took a lot of debts before paying it off. How could it suddenly be smashed? What exactly happened, she will never smash the spaceship for no reason."
"Hey, it's all my fault, it was my old man who talked about her life experience for a while..."
"Third Uncle, what life experience?" As the patriarch, Xia Ding asked The elders are unanimously concealing things. After listening to it, I was taken aback,
"What? Aunt Wen's biological mother passed away long ago, and it was recorded under her aunt's name. Later, she was left behind when she was treated and discarded?"
"Hey, it's not a very glorious thing to say. But people also have difficulties. We can't stand and talk without back pain! Wen Xinyi has been sick since she was a child, and she takes medicine every year. She has typhoid fever every month. I took half of the leftover medicine. I had to send it to Xingji, but the cost of treatment alone cost my family money. If it can be cured, it's fine. The doctors there said it couldn't be cured, and said What kind of "genetic disease" should be sent to the Academy of Sciences for research, and later passed on the diagnosis and treatment plan, saying that it is born in the mother and fetus, and it will not be cured in a lifetime. With this oily bottle, life is hard. It is still a disease that cannot be cured. Dragging the whole family to death? So I lost it."
"Her aunt was also in a bad mood, and died of depression because of the dystocia. Her uncle didn't live for two years. Everyone buried the sad past, and no one mentioned it. How could I have imagined that after more than ten years, she came back! She came to the door by herself!"
"No one knows how she came here. Everyone was surprised and happy, and hurriedly helped her pay homage to her parents, eager to stay. Let her down, treat her twice as well, and make up for it. But she has already changed, coldly, saying that she has checked carefully, her parents have not looked for her, and the Xia clan has not sent anyone out to look for her, then Just think she died outside.
Listen to this, full of resentment, who dares to tell her life experience? Pity her aunt and uncle, she will regret it until she dies! If a family dies, they will die together, even if they starve to death and freeze I shouldn't have lost the child. I saw the child crying as soon as I closed my eyes. I have never had a good night's sleep. If I knew that the damn quack doctor made a misjudgment, Wen Xinyi would not only have no symptoms, but also awakened supernatural powers. You're so angry!"
Xia Ding shook his head again and again.
He knows the temperament of the clansmen, and it is absolutely impossible to say that they have bad intentions. But without malice, it does not mean that you will do good things and be able to do things well.
For example, in this matter, if Wen Xinyi came back for the first time after growing up, and told everything clearly, her biological mother died young, and her aunt dragged her to grow up. Later, her illness was too burdensome, beyond the range of tolerance, and she had to throw it away. . I believe Wen Xinyi will hate and get angry, but after getting angry, that's all. After all, her aunt and uncle had raised her for several years, and she was kind enough to take her seriously to seek medical treatment.
Remembering the old love, those injuries can also offset most of them.
But now, fifty or sixty years have passed, why say it? Coercing people to take away the tribe? Don't coerce, Wen Xinyi will definitely do it, she has not forgotten her identity as a member of the Xia clan for so many years. Once threatened, it's over.
All the years of friendship are gone!
Tell people about her background now, Wen Xinyi is almost eighty, should she check it out? If we search, the news of the biological father has passed too long, what should I do if I can't find any clues? Or has the person passed away during these forty or fifty years?
"You are helping our Xia Clan to vengeance!"
"What do you mean, we have been hiding this secret, and we have not let her know that we are an illegitimate daughter! Her own father is a libertine, so irresponsible!"
" Come on!" Xia Ding was helpless, "What are you talking about now? Aunt Wen is a well-known high-level ability user in the entire Interstellar Federation, and I am still her junior, so I dare not stand tall in front of her." You are a senior, so you don't need to think about what she thinks, but look at the juniors, what you teach them has already offended people."
"If you offend, you will offend, no one is afraid of her!" the Great Elder was annoyed, "She smashed the spaceship at a critical moment, and she didn't care about the lives of our Xia people. Who cares about her? No matter what you say today, I must get rid of the black sheep! Don't let anyone stop me!
" What have you said? I plan to let the clansmen leave here and live on other planets in the Federation."
"Just go, she Wen Xinyi can cover the sky with one hand, and won't let us go?"
Communicate with the clansmen, especially the older generation It's getting harder. Xia Ding's mouth was full of bitterness, and he gave up the conversation, but turned his head to look at the juniors with pity, as if he was worried about their future.
And the juniors of the Xia Clan are not stupid, knowing that they did a stupid thing today. Even though they were not afraid of Wen Xinyi, this smiling old lady could be everyone's help.
Now......
Not to mention the awkward relationship between the Xia clan, Yunxi and Suo An, because of this chaos, they got closer. They looked at each other, and simply omitted the process of contact and temptation in the middle.
"How are you? I heard from Mechelle that you want to sue her and terminate the agreement?"
"Yes."
Suoan didn't ask any further questions, and accepted it flatly without being angry. "I made a promise with Mechelle before, you How can you go back on your word." He didn't even care much about what others thought of him after the news of what happened today was spread - in front of the extraordinary Chen Yunxi, those were all secondary and didn't matter.
The night wind in the mountains is cool, and the stars in the night sky are shining brightly. Occasionally, a meteor passed by with its long tail, and the two standing side by side took a breath of the chilly air, and turned their heads to look at each other unconsciously.
Suo An looked at Yunxi, and Yunxi also looked at Suo An.
The eyes of both of them are calm, flat, but also radiant.
One is to experience countless hardships and ups and downs, die and come back to life, with an early heart like the sea, and will not make waves for a little thing; the other is to bear hundreds of millions of expectations since childhood, and bear the pressure of death alone. like a rock.
If fate hadn't been connected early, the rock would be firm and hard, and would not be shaken by the sea; if it hadn't been treated after waking up, the sea would not stir up waves because of the rock.
Maybe the germ has already been planted, maybe it's the goodwill hidden deep in my heart. At this moment, Yunxi thinks that Suo An is very handsome, unprecedentedly handsome!
When threatened by Claudia, she just felt angry. But afterwards, she thought about why Claudia felt that she could threaten Suoan.
like?
These two words are too frivolous, and Suoan obviously doesn't match these two words at all. At least Yunxi couldn't figure it out, how could someone go on a trip with the person they like and ignore them for a month...
She just didn't believe it.
But it didn't prevent her from admiring this young man from the bottom of her heart. Not only was she smart and capable, but the most important thing was that he was so handsome!
As for Suoan, he saw Yunxi whose eyes were still clear under the starry sky, as if she would not change for anything, and finally understood the sentence he saw in An's house - don't be happy with things, don't be sad with yourself.
I still remember my grandfather once said that this is a state called detachment. As long as people are still alive, it is difficult to do it. After all, human beings have seven emotions and six desires, preferences and dislikes. Who can be indifferent to "love" and "evil"?
Now seeing Yunxi at this moment, Suo An understands that the so-called detachment is not indifference, but a real temperament, but it will not be lingering in the heart, has courage and wisdom, can afford it and let it go. This is a state of life.
What the extraordinary Chen Yunxi is doing now is to live in the world she has worked hard to open up as an ordinary interstellar person.
There are good sides and bad sides in this world, and she chooses to experience them all.
How much glory in the past, she can let go of it all, and live a new life with a new look.
Suo An's heart was filled with surging emotions, and the night wind could not cool the heat in his heart. At this moment, he really wanted to know everything about Chen Yunxi, why she made this choice, and what she wanted to do in the future.
Everything, he wants to... participate. The past was too late, the present and the future, he wanted to be by her side.
This time, it wasn't my grandfather's request, nor was it an order from the organization, but what he really wanted to do!
It was also at this moment that Suoan found his heart moved...
he heard Yunxi asking, "Claudia said...your secret...so it is for a certain purpose...to study frozen people Is it?"
How should he answer?
Said that he and his organization have been preparing for your awakening for hundreds of years, passed down through generations?
"Yes."
He took another deep breath without denying it.
There was no point in denying it, and he didn't want to lie to Chen Yunxi either.
A few years later, when Chen Yunxi regained her identity, he could also say in a fair and honest manner, "It's all for you!"
Yunxi didn't know about Suo An's complicated emotions, so she thought for a while, "It's okay, you don't have to explain it to me. Just like me As I said before, everyone has their own secrets. I do too. Except for close friends, there is no need for everyone to tell it, right."
"Yes."
Suo An looked at Yunxi, smiling so hard that the corners of his eyes crooked. Say: Of course I know you have a secret, and your secret is who you are! I already knew it!
Yunxi smiled, "Captain Claudia probably gave up too, but the Xia Clan has lived and worked here for more than a hundred years, and they don't interact with outsiders, and there are also things that come to snatch treasures, which shows that people are always full of doubts." The scariest thing is that it comes out of nowhere."
Suo An's mind became even more ironed, and he had a thousand words to say, but only three simple words came out,
"I understand."
Yunxi glanced at Suo An to make sure he understood, Not much to say. Instead, he sighed at the night, "It's so quiet this night, but it's a pity that it's tomorrow..." The
next day, there was chaos.
The bamboo building that was razed to the ground by the mechs was already full of Xia people. Although the patriarch said that he wanted to leave, it was not a day or two, but there must be a place to stay. Looking at it this way, I am no longer attached to the hatred of destroying the family.
Deal with it for a few days first, and wait for the patriarch to get enough spaceships before the big guys move.
Can you gather everyone early in the morning and open the ancestral hall? Remove Wen Xinyi?
Let's just get rid of it, the ancestral hall has always been managed by the Great Elder, it is really hateful that Wen Xinyi smashed the spaceship with one punch.
Unexpectedly, this Wen Xinyi is so powerful that the patriarch is not her opponent! And she brazenly broke into the ancestral hall to take away her biological mother's ashes?
Li Liu chuckled and decided to stay and watch the excitement.
