Chapter 7 Travel
"Thank you Xiao Gongzi, if you don't dislike it, please call me Xue'er." Dongfang Xue bent down and solemnly thanked her.
"Oriental Snow Maiden...... No, Miss Cher is polite, but it's better not to spread today's events. Dongfang Xiao admonished. Dongfang Xue is not an unreasonable person, and this matter will never be known to others.
The two didn't say much, although Dongfang Xue had a lot of questions in her heart, but she also knew that this was not the right time, so she didn't ask more, so she said goodbye.
"It seems that I can live a peaceful life again." Dongfang Xiao crossed Erlang's legs and sat leisurely on the recliner in the courtyard, squinting slightly and basking in the sun, like an eighty-year-old man. For this matter, Dongfang Fu also felt very helpless, this son's laziness seems to be innate, since he was able to move freely, it was laziness beyond everyone's expectations. He doesn't seem to have done anything else except cultivation every day, and he has no interest in the games played by his peers, so he doesn't have any friends, and the best relationship with him seems to be only Dongfang Yue, who is slightly younger than him.
Although he was a little uncomfortable at first, Dongfang Xiao gradually adapted to the life of this world, but after all, in this seemingly young body is an adult soul, let him play the game of the house with those little children, it is better to hide and bask in the sun by himself.
"Xiao'er, you're basking in the sun here again." Dongfang Fu said helplessly, every time Dongfang Fu saw such a thing, he couldn't help but say a few words, however, it was useless, Dongfang Xiao didn't even open his eyes, just waved his hand to indicate that he heard it.
"Xiao'er, the clan will organize a hunt in two days."
"Oh."
"It is said that the person who wins the championship will be personally summoned by the patriarchs and elders, and there will be mysterious prizes."
"Huh."
"Xiao'er, are you interested in participating in this hunt?"
"Nope."
"Why don't you want to participate?"
"Need a reason?"
"Uh...... Aren't you interested in the mysterious prize? ”
"Nope."
"But I've already signed you up."
"Then revoke it."
"Can't be undone."
"Then I'll surrender."
……
Every time Dongfang Fu wants Dongfang Xiao not to be bored at home and wants him to participate in any activities, Dongfang Xiao will find all kinds of reasons to shirk it, and later, even the reason Dongfang Xiao is too lazy to look for it, no matter what kind of family activities, Dongfang Xiao's return is only two words: "Don't go".
"Xiao'er, this time the family has a new mission released."
"Oh."
"The task this time is to go and take over the inheritance of Dongfang Xue's family, although his parents did not leave anything, but after all, the fallen leaves return to their roots, and everything they have will eventually return to the family. Because there is no difficulty, the clan has decided to let you younger generations participate. How's that, are you interested? ”
"Yes."
"Xiao'er, you can't always stay in the family and go out for a walk once in a while...... Wait a minute, what did you just say? Do you agree? ”
"yes." Dongfang Xiaobo nodded calmly.
"So positive this time? Isn't it interesting to the girl named Dongfang Xue? Dongfang Fu had a suspicious look on his face, he really didn't understand how Dongfang Xiao, who usually didn't bother to do anything, could be so active this time.
"Huh." Dongfang Xiao rolled his eyes and glanced at Dongfang Fu, but he didn't say anything, and he didn't bother to refute anything.
"Uh...... All right. Dongfang Fu smiled embarrassedly, Dongfang Xiao's willingness to go out to practice was already beyond his expectations, no matter what the motive was, at least this kind of behavior was still commendable.
"Alright then, you get ready, and in three days, you'll set off with the young people of the clan who have chosen to participate."
"Hmm." Dongfang Xiao answered, and continued to lazily continue to bask in the sun. Dongfang Fu sighed and left here helplessly.
In fact, his willingness to travel this time has something to do with Dongfang Xue, although Dongfang Xiao is indifferent to many things, but he still cares very much about his friends. And there are only three people who are friends with him so far: Dongfang Xue, Dongfang Yu, and his sister Dongfang Yue. In addition, there is a more important reason, that is, a series of changes that happened to Dongfang Xiao not long ago. In the family, there are many things that Dongfang Xiao can't expose, such as the ghost hand, and then the autumn leaf knife that Dongfang Xiao just got. While this may not pose any danger, it certainly won't be a nuisance. For Dongfang Xiao, it is naturally better to have more than one thing.
Although he didn't care much about it on the surface, but for this outing, Dongfang Xiao still made enough preparations, all kinds of materials, whether they were used or not, Dongfang Xiao would throw them all into the inventory, anyway, these things didn't feel the weight at all when they were thrown inside, in line with the principle of being prepared, Dongfang Xiao's preparation can also be said to be quite sufficient.
"Father, what is the reward for this mission?" Until the eve of departure. Dongfang Xiaocai remembered that such an important issue had not yet been clarified, and immediately asked his father Dongfang Fu.
"Hey, it's a secret." Dongfang Fu smiled mysteriously, but he didn't want to reveal any news. Dongfang Fu rolled his eyes, and didn't bother to ask anything more, with the family's usual style, he was afraid that he wouldn't come up with anything good.
However, this time Dongfang Xiao guessed wrong, the reward taken out by the family this time was far beyond Dongfang Xiao's imagination, but it was just a small condition, but this small condition reminded Dongfang Xiao of the fear of being dominated...... Of course, that's all for later.
In this way, the time to set off was soon up, and everyone was also ready for their own preparations, and when they arrived at the gathering place before departure, Dongfang Xiao found that most of the partners on this trip were his acquaintances, and they were all in the recent competition, and they played a few better: Dongfang Ye, Dongfang Yu, and Dongfang Chen, who had just recently broken through to the middle level of the Lingshi, and of course, Dongfang Xue, an indispensable figure for this trip.
Except for Dongfang Xue and Dongfang Xiao, the other three were all excited, most of them had never left the family, and this was also the first time they left the family and relied on the strength of their younger generation to complete the task. And under Dongfang Xiao's calm appearance, there is also a trace of excitement hidden, I believe that this trip, he will also be able to gain a lot.
