One day ago Xinyuan City Urban-Rural Integration Zone

Far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, this place is people's ideal paradise. Transportation and economy are also developing rapidly. People here live an urban life, but it is not as chaotic and noisy as the city. There are some ancient towering buildings in the places passing by.

The giant tree seems to be very old. One or two lonely old mansions, like the heritage of the old era abandoned by the new world, sit next to the ancient tree, standing lonely in the gloomy night.

My eyes followed this area and looked in. Standing nearly a thousand meters away from the urban-rural area, there was a facility that was incompatible with this place. Its outer layer was made of quartz and it was a wall that was neither high nor short. It looked like

The protective measures are not high-level. But such empty protection is as if it is protected by a barrier, which makes people feel very stressed. The buildings in the facility are arranged in an orderly manner, but it is difficult to see the structure of each building from the appearance.

practical effect.

In the center of the building complex, there is a courtyard-style building. The decorative style is not an ancient atmosphere, but closer to a combination of ancient and modern. However, there are few people in this huge area, and silence invades

The stained area spread slowly. But obviously, judging from the bright lights in the room, it was not empty.

"The guests are coming soon, you really don't have the manners to be a host."

A woman with a knife stood at a table where a group of people gathered, scolding them, holding a silver tablet in her hand. The woman's appearance was not particularly outstanding, but her temperament was not inferior to those of the ladies.

The black and white scabbard hangs on the right end of the woman, making it difficult for people to feel malicious. There are five people in this room at the moment. In addition to the woman who is talking, there are three other men and one woman in the room. Just like that

According to the woman, three of the four people were chatting animatedly, and one was lying on the sofa and fell asleep.

"Oh, Xia Xi is here, this way."

One of the tall, thin men wearing glasses greeted him, and immediately pulled open the seat next to him, gesturing for the woman to sit over.

"What's wrong?"

Xia Xi didn't walk over, just stood at the door and asked.

"Hahahaha! Xia Xi, that idiot Zhao Youping actually told us that he and Shi Wu'an are evenly matched in strength, hahahaha! None of those braggarts in South Africa can brag like you."

Another girl among the three explained to Xia Xi with a smile that was not ladylike at all. Although the girl's appearance was somewhat good, her face was showing off her beauty with a twisted smile at this moment.

, it’s really a bit dumbfounding. Not only is her laughter not sweet, it’s like a rooster crowing, bringing disillusionment to people. It’s hard to match this smile and laughter with her good looks.

"Believe it or not, the last time I went on a mission with him, we had two monsters, one each, and we finally solved them at the same time. What should I say? This is not enough to prove my strength?"

Zhao Youping, who was said to be bragging, sat across from the two of them. He threw the scabbard on the table, slapped the table, and said, "I am so strong, believe it or not."

"Do you think you hit..."

"Stop, stop, stop, what we should be talking about now is not what Zhao Youping is pretending to be, but what we should think about how to welcome guests."

The man with glasses smiled disdainfully and was about to ask a rhetorical question, but was interrupted by Xia Xi at the door.

"Guests? Are those two from the Kingdom of Semule?"

The girl with the impressive laugh turned halfway and said.

"It doesn't matter what they do, let's live our lives. They are not here just to chat with us or eat and drink, right?"

As Zhao Youping spoke, he took the scabbard on the table and played with it. The scabbard was dark green with black lines intertwined in it, like a poisonous scorpion preparing to attack.

"Your speech is like an orphan. Is it because your English is not good and you don't know how to communicate with our international friends, Zhao Youping?"

The man with glasses pushed up his glasses and mocked with a malicious smile.

"You sound like you speak English very well, Feng Xutao. Last time you played Apex with me, didn't you still not understand what the teammate was saying?"

Zhao Youping called the name of the man with glasses in front of him and revealed. He stepped on the chair with one foot and looked arrogant.

"That damn thing is a piece of shit."

Feng Xutao responded immediately, and then looked suspiciously at Zhao Youping who was questioning him.

"Oh I...really?"

Zhao Youping said hesitantly, and the woman sitting there began to look up to the sky and laugh, making people wonder whether she would die laughing.

"Uh...me-huh~"

While several people were making a fuss, the very young boy who had been sleeping on the sofa felt that he was finally woken up. The boy was still lying on the sofa and had not yet gotten up. He rubbed his eyes with a tired voice,

He opened his mouth and said:

"What are you doing...I finally dreamed about my beautiful sister, and you have ruined all my good things."

"You little pervert, are you up? Come on, go talk to sister Xia Xi about how to entertain our distinguished guests. Brother and sister have important matters to discuss here, so go, go."

Zhao Youping walked to the sofa, used his hands to lift up the sleepy boy lying on the bed, and dragged him out of the blanket. Before the latter could react, Zhao Youping put him on the ground. The boy staggered and adjusted his steps.

Holding the two-dimensional pillow in his hand, he stood motionless with a sluggish expression on his face. His little feet were still bare on the floor at this moment. The boy was only about 1.4 meters tall, and his immature face was still sleepy. He should not be older than

Will be over twelve or thirteen years old.

"You are sometimes more childish than Zhou Mi."

Xia Xi walked over helplessly, stretched out her hand and took the hand of the child named Zhou Mi, and said to the group of underage adults.

"Go, go, how naive you are. Besides, we, Ren, are not good at those fancy and hypocritical things. If you want to hold a welcome party, we have no objection."

Zhao Youping waved his hand and explained, but left half of the sentence unfinished. Unexpectedly, the girl with an amazing laugh suddenly picked up the words the next second.

"But we can't do the chores of organizing and planning the welcome party, but we can come and enliven the atmosphere when the time comes."

The girl snapped her fingers, blinked and smiled, as if to say: That's it.

"...have we become an atmosphere group...we..."

Feng Xutao interjected silently. After hearing this low voice, the girl immediately gave Feng Xutao a thumbs up, as if to say: Yes, that's right.

"....Okay, this is your unanimous opinion, don't go back on it."

Xia Xi said, looking at the three of them one after another, making several of them look at each other and feel a little guilty.

"That's natural."

Zhao Youping patted his breasts and replied, very arrogantly.

"Yes, we guarantee Zhao Youping's head. If he goes back on his word, you can just chop it off, no problem."

The girl with the louder voice spoke, and her chin pointed at the knife beside Xia Xi.

"Hey, hey! Don't bet on my head, Xie Yuxian!"

Zhao Youping reacted very quickly. He was still nodding at first, but the next second after hearing this, his face immediately darkened and he shouted to the girl.

"That's right, Zhao Youping's head is not enough, we also use his knife as collateral."

Feng Xutao immediately echoed, while Zhao Youping turned his head back and forth, staring at the two of them blankly.

"Okay, okay, you can continue playing. To discuss this kind of thing, I should go find Sun Yeying."

Xia Xi couldn't stay here any longer. After she asked Zhou Mi to put on her shoes, she immediately took Zhou Mi and planned to leave the room.

"Counselor Sun is at the underground training ground."

Xie Yuxian reminded, and after saying that, he mingled with the other two people again, and laughed like geese from time to time. Xia Xi closed the door, and could still vaguely hear the high-pitched conversations in the room, as if they were discussing the next connection.

What game are you playing?

"Underground training ground?"

Feeling his sleepiness gradually disappearing, Zhou Mi asked. He had just arrived here not long ago and had never been to the training ground here. Moreover, he had never strengthened his basic training skills and didn't even know what was in the training room.

.

"You will know soon. I will take you to exercise in the future. Don't just play all day long. Be careful, your female classmates will dislike you in the future."

Xia Xi said this, she is the closest to Zhou Mi among these people, just like a real sister and brother. The reason why Zhou Mi came here was also planned by Xia Xi, otherwise he might have ended up living on the streets.

, not to mention this kind of free life. Moreover, Xia Xi has always been his guardian and used her own money to support Zhou Mi's education (although most of the expenses were paid by the school). She was able to do this

It is already extremely rare to live in the fields. Of course, Zhou Mi also understands these basic principles, so he also thanks Xia Xi in his heart and treats him as a real family member.

"Ah~? Then I don't want to go."

When Zhou Mi heard that he was going to train in the future, he immediately became unhappy. He broke away from Xia Xi's hand and turned around to run away.

"If you run away, you won't be able to play games with Zhao Youping and the others at night."

When Xia Xi saw Zhou Mi running away, she did not go to catch him back. Instead, she stood there and threatened. The whole process was smooth and smooth. It seemed that she had already experienced dealing with Zhou E several times. Naturally, Zhou Mi then

He returned to Xia Xi angrily, lowering his head without saying a word, looking very pitiful.

"Don't you want to be popular with girls?

"I have no interest in those little brats at all. They can't even compare to Yan Yi's sister Yuxian."

"...This is a bit much..."

The two siblings walked in the corridor at night, their shoes stepping on the gravel path in silence. The moonlight was like water, gently pouring on the ground, and the shadows of bamboo and trees floated on the water, with the gentle night breeze.
