Chapter 3244

"No need!" Xiao Hua smiled faintly, "This old man has no disciple!

The evil in this world must be dealt with by the righteous people. This old man killed these bandits because of this old man's actions. There's no reason for me to ask you for a reward! "

"Yes, yes …" Seeing that Xiao Hua didn't accept it, Qi Jin was a bit embarrassed. He knew that Xiao Hua didn't want to interfere with their matters with Xiao Jian, so he answered while walking to Xiao Jian's side. As for how Xiao Jian would respond, Xiao Hua didn't care. Because at this time, the so-called ranger You Zhongquan seemed to have reached some agreement with the You family's seventh uncle. Under the seventh uncle's lead, he came to Xiao Hua.

Seventh uncle cupped his hands and said, "This old man is Yi Feng Country's You family's servant, You Qi. Greetings to Daoist Xiao!

From what my family's young master said, it was you who saved him. This old man was a bit slow in treating you. May I know where your Daoist temple is?

This old man will report this matter to my family's head and ask him to send people to your Daoist temple to rebuild the Daoist temple and reconstruct the Daoist's golden body. "

Seeing seventh uncle flaunting his seniority and hearing seventh uncle call himself old man, Xiao Hua smiled and returned the greeting, "Old man is too polite. This Xiao doesn't deserve such a great reward.

Moreover, this Xiao is also a wild crane with no place to stay. This Xiao appreciates old man's kindness. "

"How can that be?"

Seventh uncle didn't give up. He shook his head and said, "My You family is a great scholarly family. My ancestors have passed down poems and books. Everyone in Yi Feng Country knows that my You family rules with etiquette. If you don't repay such a great favor, how can my You family face the world?"

"Damn it …" Xiao Hua saw that every word of seventh uncle's was a great scholarly family. Even if he didn't ask for repayment, he would tarnish the You family's reputation. He couldn't help but mutter in his heart. However, he waved his hand and said, "Old man's words are wrong!"

"Oh?" Seventh uncle was surprised and asked curiously, "What advice does Daoist have?"

"Although this Xiao isn't a scholarly cultivator, I admire the righteous spirit of scholarly cultivators!

Just a few moments ago, the young master of the noble clan was facing hundreds of bandits and the leader of the bandits whom he could not resist at all. The young master said, "Read books, practice etiquette, cultivate righteousness, and hold a three-foot sword. Then, we should move forward courageously and sweep away all evil in the world!"

Such words are like divine thunder from the nine heavens that awakened this Xiao. He is only a scholar in his teens, but he can rely on the righteous spirit to reach the realm of 'Even if there are tens of thousands of people, I will still go forward'. Isn't that the ranger in this Xiao's heart?

Wasn't he one of the rare and magnificent men in the world?

This Xiao is only fighting the enemy together with him, so what help is there?

Old Sir is worried about the face of the scholarly cultivator clans, but I still have to worry about the face of my Dao Sect!

In the future, Old Sir must not mention this matter again! "

Xiao Hua's words made seventh uncle's face glow. He naturally didn't know about You Zhongquan's performance. Although he looked down on the declining Dao Sect and looked down on Xiao Hua, Xiao Hua did save You Zhongquan after all. At this time, he even praised You Zhongquan in such a lofty manner. His heart was already blooming with joy. He couldn't even close his mouth as he said with a smile, "Daoist Xiao is really exaggerating. Little Gongzi is still young and hasn't learned the true meaning of our Confucian cultivation. This is merely what I heard Eldest Gongzi and my master often talk about.

"Words can be imitated, but righteous spirit is irreplaceable!"

Xiao Hua disagreed, "Facing the leader of the bandits who could easily kill him, your noble young master stepped forward bravely. This is definitely not some simple matter of hearing and seeing!

It's all because your sect has taught your son well! "

"Alas …" Seventh uncle didn't expect Xiao Hua to actually hold Confucian cultivators and his You Family in such high esteem. It seemed that Xiao Hua didn't have any barrier between Dao Sect and Confucian cultivators. He was very happy in his heart and looked at Xiao Hua a lot more pleasing to the eye. When he heard Xiao Hua's last words, he couldn't help but sigh, "Daoist Xiao may not know, but this old man has watched Little Gongzi grow up. Think of the little baby who peed on this old man's neck when he was young …"

"Seventh Uncle …" You Zhongquan's face was as red as a red cloth. He threatened, "If you keep talking, I'll leave!"

"Okay, okay, I won't say, I won't say!"

Seventh uncle was full of smiles, as if he had forgotten his previous vigilance. He asked Xiao Hua, "Where is Daoist Xiao going?

If you have time, how about we go together? "

"Hehe …" Xiao Hua laughed and replied, "This Xiao wants to go to Bronze Pillar State, but I don't know if I'm going the same way as you?"

Before Seventh uncle could speak, Yuanya walked back and handed over the cleaned magic wand to Xiao Hua. He said respectfully, "Thank you for the weapon, Daoist Xiao!"

"En ~" Xiao Hua took it and put it into his space. He looked at You Zhongquan and smiled, "Yuanya, this is You Zhongquan, the descendant of Yifeng State's Great Confucian. You didn't see him when you were fighting just now. He actually dared to fight a bandit leader by himself. His courage is definitely out of the ordinary.

"I'm You Zhongquan. Greetings, Fellow Daoist ~" You Zhongquan had already seen Yuanya who fought the fat monk. Yuanya's bravery made him admire him. Now that he had the chance, how could he not know how to befriend him?

He hurriedly bowed and said.

"I'm You Zhongquan …" Although Yuanya wasn't good with words, hearing You Zhongquan's courage, he also looked at him in a new light and hurriedly returned the greeting. However, after the two greeted each other, they didn't know what to say after a few words. The scene was quite awkward. Xiao Hua waved his hand again, "Liu Yi, Yuanya isn't good with words. Come over here. You're both young people. You should get to know each other!"

"Yes, Daoist priest!"

Liu Yi didn't dare to move around in the carriage for fear of causing trouble. Now that he heard the call, he hurriedly slipped down from the carriage …

"Mighty …" In front of the carriages, there were already shouts from the escort agency. Obviously, they were about to set off again. Xiao Hua smiled and said, "Old Sir, please. Young people have their own topics. We have our own matters. How about we chat as we go?"

Xiao Hua was very concerned about the matter between You Zhongquan and Huang Yi. Naturally, he also looked at the people of the You Clan in a new light. He really wanted to get to know You Zhongquan better.

Of the two You Clan guards who didn't announce their names, one accompanied You Zhongquan, while the other led Zhui Feng, which You Zhongquan was riding before, over and asked Seventh Uncle to get on the horse. Seventh Uncle lifted his leg and got on the saddle horse. He said to Xiao Hua with a smile, "Hehe, this old man is already old. I'm 37 years old. Daoist priest Xiao has the ability to retain one's youthful appearance. This old man can't see how old Daoist priest is compared to this old man!"

"This …" Xiao Hua was a bit hesitant. After thinking for a bit, he smiled and said, "Old Sir's age is really not young. However, Old Sir's skills are vigorous and not inferior to ordinary people. Even if you say you're 15 years old, this Xiao would still believe it!"

"Hahaha ~" Seventh Uncle laughed heartily, "This old man only received the Clan Head's generous gift to practice the Clan's secret arts. Although I can't achieve great success and can't sweep away the demons in the region like the Little Gongzi and the others, but when it comes to condensing Qi and blood, there's no harm in moving nimbly!

Otherwise, how could the heavy responsibility of following the Little Gongzi fall on this old man's shoulders?

Besides, this old man is nothing. My Clan's previous Clan Head was over a hundred years old, but he was still able to wield a three foot long sword and kill the Xunyang Water Bandits' leader. That's what you call amazing! "

At this point, Seventh Uncle came to a realization and said with a smile, "That's right. At this point, this old man still hasn't asked for Daoist priest Xiao's name. Daoist priest Xiao also doesn't seem to have mentioned my age!"

Xiao Hua sighed. Looking at Seventh Uncle's somewhat arrogant smile, he didn't know how to answer. It seemed that the so-called desire to win or lose wasn't only commonly seen in battles and gambling, it was also commonly seen in ordinary speech!

It wouldn't wear out because of a person's age.

Or perhaps Seventh Uncle felt that he didn't have Xiao Hua's divine abilities and wanted to find a balance in these minor details?

Xiao Hua just couldn't answer this question. Even he himself didn't know his true age!

If he counted from the Dawn Rain Continent's Shang Hua Ming, perhaps he was close to two hundred years old, right?

However, even if Xiao Hua said the most reliable and also the shortest age at this time, would Seventh Uncle believe him?

My surname is Xiao and my given name is Hua. This year … "At this point, Xiao Hua faintly smiled," I already don't know how old I am this year. I only know that the last time I went into seclusion was a hundred years ago! "

At this point, Xiao Hua suddenly remembered that he didn't know how long it had been since he entered the Eye of the Sea and woke up in front of the River and Tide Temple several dozen days ago!

"Ah?" Seventh Uncle stared blankly, then immediately smiled and cupped his hands, saying, "Daoist priest Xiao is truly a deity!

This old man admires you! "

"Hahaha …" Xiao Hua also laughed heartily and casually cupped his hands. He knew in his heart that Seventh Uncle's "deity" didn't mean that he was a deity in cultivation, but rather a deity who bragged. He didn't mind. Wasn't his true situation what Xiao Jian, this so-called Daoist priest, often bragged about?

He also didn't need to explain anything to Seventh Uncle.

The carriages continued to move forward. Liu Yi, Yuan Ya, and You Zhongquan were chatting at the front. From time to time, some laughter could be heard. Seventh Uncle looked at You Zhongquan's beaming face and felt happy in his heart. He unconsciously told Xiao Hua everything that You Zhongquan didn't want to say.

The You Family was a scholarly family of Yifeng Country. It could be said that the entire Yifeng Country was supported by the You Family. Even the king of Yifeng Country had to bow his head and greet the You Family.

The You Family had many heirs and many side branches. You Zhongquan was the youngest among the main branches.

You Zhongquan was exceptionally intelligent since childhood. He was familiar with poetry and books at a very young age. When he was a little older, he had thoroughly read the classics of the scholarly families. He would often put forward his own unique views and was doted on by the family head. Furthermore, he was also expected to produce another great grandmaster in the You Family, or even a literary sage!

Unfortunately, You Zhongquan's cultivation path was out of everyone's expectations. When he first stepped on the path of refining essence into qi, it was very easy, but when he started cultivating, it was abnormally difficult. Others used a day's effort, but he could only use ten days to achieve it. The true qi in his chest couldn't be refined and purified. Now, he was already fourteen or fifteen years old, but he was still in the realm of a scholar.

This was still nothing. After all, the You Family had many scholarly disciples. What kind of situation hadn't they seen before?

They also had corresponding secret techniques to deal with it.

But what puzzled others the most was You Zhongquan's ambition!

You Zhongquan wanted to be a ranger!

Not the great grandmaster that the You Family had in mind!

What was a ranger?

The ranger that Seventh Uncle spoke of was … very different from what Xiao Hua thought!
