Chapter 1303: The Path Of Apocalypse (26)

Xi, a rare surname.

If it were before the splitting of Xuan Continent, Xi would have definitely been a big family.

But after the splitting, the Xi family clan disappeared and almost no related information could be found.

After a fruitless search, Yue Ge performed a trigram and finally determined the location: Yong’an Village.

Xiu Huan arrived at the Yong’an Village earlier than Ming Shu and was now waiting outside.

“Lord.”

Ming Shu got out of the carriage. “Is it here?”

Xiu Huan answered, “According to the images of the trigram performed by Advisor Yue Ge, it is right here. But I’ve asked about it just now, and there isn’t any Xi living here.”

Xiu Huan paused. “But... Many of the villagers are surnamed Gu.”

There were nearly 100 families in the village, more than half of whom were surnamed Gu.

Gu, Xi, the former was a part of the latter in the structure of Chinese characters.

Ming Shu looked at the quiet village ahead and said, “You wait outside.”

Xiu Huan bowed without any hesitation. “Yes.”

Ming Shu told Qi Yu to get down and took him to the village.

At this time it was afternoon, the big red characters with auspicious meaning were posted everywhere in the village, and it seemed there was a happy event ongoing.

When the strangers entered the village, the villagers looked on curiously, but no one came forward to inquire, keeping a safe distance.

All the people in the Thousand Mirror World knew about cultivation, but some were talented and some were not.

In villages like this, people focused more on life than practice.

“Ugh...”

From the crossroad, a black child rushed out and bumped into Qi Yu.

The child fell straight to the ground.

Ming Shu looked down at the place where Qi Yu was hit. “Are you all right?”

Qi Yu shook his head. It was just a kid.

“Stop right there!”

A few children, who were not too young, ran out of the alley and quickly rounded up the fallen child.

There was a little fatty among them who arrived last. He leaned on his knees, panting, pointed to the child on the ground, and said, “You dare run away! Why don’t you run now! Keep running!”

The child on the ground seemed frightened and shrank back, not daring to speak.

Noticing Ming Shu and Qi Yu within sight, he crawled behind them with both hands and feet to ask for help. “Help me.”

The little fatty’s line of sight also subsequently fell on Ming Shu.

His eyes, which were only slit open, were shining with strange lights.

He had never seen anyone so good-looking.

Ming Shu didn’t want to meddle in other people’s business, especially the wild kids’.

She pulled Qi Yu aside to make room for their battleground.

“Help... help me.” The thin child in the middle looked desperate.

Ming Shu smiled at him and walked away without stopping.

The little fatty’s attention was completely attracted by Ming Shu. “Who are you?”

Ming Shu: “???”

Weren’t you chasing that boy? Why are you questioning me!?

The little fatty stood erect and was very proud of himself. “I’m the prince of Yong’an Village, you should be my concubine!”

“Pfft!”

Ming Shu laughed directly.

Where was this wild kid from, so funny. Was he a bully of the village? He’s bullying me now!

Qi Yu’s face blackened and he looked at the little fatty with gloomy eyes.

The little fatty held his head high and patted his chest. “What are you laughing at? If you follow me, you’ll have abundant food and be respected by the entire village!”

Before Qi Yu took action, a man rushed out from behind them, grabbed a branch from somewhere, and lashed at the little fatty.

“Gu Baochuan, how many times have I told you, don’t bully others, don’t bully others, why didn’t you just listen?

“Be respected by the entire village? Show me, show me how you are going to do that.”

The little fatty howled and jumped around to avoid the beating with hands on his head.

“Father, am I your real son or not? Ow, I’ll report this to Grandma!”

The little fatty kept howling and the man hit him even harder.

In the end, the little fatty held his father’s leg with a tearful face. “Father, I was wrong. I’ll give the prince title to you, wuwuwu, I don’t want to be the prince anymore...”

Ming Shu saw the man reveal a speechless expression.

Parenting such a wild kid must be exhausting.

The man kicked the little fatty away. “Stand straight!”

The little fatty stood up in tears. Those children behind him, as soon as the man appeared, had long since scattered.

After punishing the little fatty, the man looked at Ming Shu and Qi Yu. He bowed with hands raised before his chest. “I’m really sorry that my son is ignorant and bothered you two. If you are still angry, I’ll leave him to you for punishment.”

The man was quite good-looking. His clothes were almost the same as those of the villagers, but they looked much better on him.

Ming Shu glanced at the little fatty who was wiping his tears. “You’re so smart.”

The man’s expression froze.

Just now, he heard his own troublesome son say something like that to two people who were not ordinary at first sight. If he didn’t rush to beat him up, perhaps it would be impossible for him to get back his son at all.

There hadn’t been strangers in their village for a long time. He wondered why the two came here.

He hoped they were just passing by...

“Please don’t be angry, it was all my son’s fault.” The man bowed even lower.

He reached out one hand and pressed little fatty on the head. “Apologize to them!”

“I didn’t... ow... I’m sorry! I was wrong!”

The little fatty spoke loudly.

Since he had apologized like this, they couldn’t find any other excuse to punish the little fatty.

This was why Ming Shu said the man was smart.

Qi Yu really wanted to teach the little fatty a lesson, but it was clearly not a proper time, so he’d find another chance...

Anyone who coveted his wife must be “killed in the cradle.”

“I’m not that stingy, but your little fatty really needs a lot of education. If the king of Liyang Country knew that he had a bastard for no reason, I’m afraid he wouldn’t be happy.”

The man twitched his mouth and gave a fierce glare at the little fatty.

This little bastard only knew how to learn bad things all day long!

“Yes, yes, yes,” the man responded obediently. “I was wondering what brings you two to our village? If you need any help, I’ll definitely give you a hand.”

Ming Shu retained a smiling face. “Your surname is Gu?”

She heard him call the little fatty Gu Baochuan just now.

“Uh... Yes.” The man became a little alert. “Most of the villagers in this village are surnamed Gu, Lord, why do you ask that?”

He secretly looked at the two people opposite. Although their temperament was extraordinary, their cultivation levels seemed to be general...

Ming Shu said, “I’m looking for someone.”

The man asked cautiously, “Our village is almost isolated from the rest of the world. I wonder who you are looking for? If you’re looking for someone from the Gu family, I can show you the way.”

“No, I’m not looking for someone surnamed Gu.”

“...”

She wasn’t looking for someone surnamed Gu, then why did she ask him if he was surnamed Gu?

“Who are you looking for then, Lord?”

“I’m looking for someone surnamed Xi.”

The girl’s clear and crisp voice rang out in the quiet village.

The man’s expression went from cautious to tight, and finally to indifference. But a moment later, he returned to normal.

He lifted his hands respectfully. “Lord, we don’t have anyone surnamed Xi in the village, I’m afraid you’ve come to the wrong place.”

“Father, why are you talking nonsense. Grandma said I am surnamed Xi, consisting of Gu and Er. See, I know how to write it!”

The little fatty wrote down a childish Xi on the floor quickly.

After finishing, he even turned to his father with confidence. “Father, did I write it correctly?”

The man: “...”
