[Rebirth] is not the savior

"By the way, why don't you live in the house below? Don't you run away from home?" After chatting for a while, Ai Xiao teased Lan Yao'er.

Lan Yao'er lowered her head slightly, she didn't chatter like before, but pursed her lips and shook her head, revealing a little bit of bitterness.

Ai Xiao stuffed a grape into his mouth, scanned the people in front of him, always felt that something was wrong but couldn't find the reason.

Cai Jin put his hand on Lan Yao'er's shoulder lightly, pressed his fingertips on her shoulder, and said, "Fortunately, senior brother Gui is fine, then I will send Yao'er back first, and we will meet again when we have a chance."

Fan Siyuan and the two knew the current situation of the Lan family, so they didn't say much. Ai Xiao wanted to let them sit for a while, but seeing that Lan Yaoer's complexion was really not very good, he didn't say anything more after a few polite words.

It's just that when they got up, when they saw the bracelet exposed by Cai Jin on Lan Yao'er's shoulder, they thought of his glass bead, which is not a rare thing, but since Cai Jin likes to collect marbles, he That one is also unique.

So Ai Xiao asked the two people who were about to go out to wait, took out the bag and tidied it up for a while, and handed the marbles to Cai Jin, "I heard that you collected this thing, so I gave it to you."

Cai Jin looked at the bead in Ai Xiao's palm, and his eyes, which had been as calm as water, became turbulent.

What makes this bead different is the crack in the center of its interior, like the electric light radiating inside the magic ball, which may be caused by the difference in temperature during firing, or other reasons, which make it appear in ordinary glass beads. It's very eye-catching inside.

Cai Jin knows that there are countless glass beads in this world, and naturally there are many with this kind of crack, but this one in front of him must be the only one.

He remembered the number of cracks in it, the number of gaps in its surface.This bead has also appeared in his dreams countless times, accompanied by the bright smiling face when he was young.

Seeing that Cai Jin hadn't moved for a long time, Ai Xiao suddenly felt a little silly.

Send a local tyrant a glass bead?Is it stupid to think about it?

"Ah, actually, I was just thinking that I might lose this bead someday. I just heard that you are collecting this... It's just an ordinary bead. Go downstairs quickly, the driver should be waiting downstairs. It's been a long time..." Ai Xiao intends to withdraw her palm and end this awkward soliloquy.

The palm was grabbed at the moment when it was about to be withdrawn, Ai Xiao was taken aback, Cai Jin's strength was so great that his fingertips turned white from being grabbed.

"Yes...it's me." Cai Jin's eyes were turbulent, and he looked straight at Ai Xiao, "Ah Xiao, it's me."

"I'm Caitou."

When Ai Xiao heard Cai Jin's words, he couldn't help being taken aback, Caitou?

ah!Caitou!

"Hey! Fuck, you have changed too much!" Ai Xiao was not as excited as Cai Jin, but the reunion of childhood friends was indeed a happy thing. He shook Cai Jin's hand and shook it vigorously. After a few strokes, he was pulled into a warm embrace.

Ai Xiao froze for a moment, then smiled and reached out to pat Cai Jin on the back in a friendly manner.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Ai Xiao was quickly pulled out of Cai Jin's arms before a tearful friend meeting.

Yan Su stood beside him with a dark face, his right hand was tightly around his shoulder, Ai Xiao felt like a hostage.

Cai Jin took a step forward, looking at Yan Su with displeasure in his eyes.

Just when Ai Xiao thought the two of them were about to fight, Lan Yaoer's phone rang at the right time.

Lan Yao'er who hung up the phone looked strange, as if she was about to cry in the next second, she called softly, "Brother Jin..."

Cai Jin heard Lan Yaoer's sobs, and immediately turned around, Lan Yaoer looked at him with teary eyes, "Grandpa, he..."

Cai Jin's expression froze, showing shock.

Knowing what Cai Jin was thinking, Lan Yao'er quickly shook her head and explained: "No...it's a coma. Grandpa is in a coma. Mom told me to go back immediately."

Only then did Cai Jin breathe a sigh of relief. He patted Lan Yaoer's shoulder to express his support and comfort, and then looked back at Ai Xiao, "I'll get the beads later."

Yan Su's eyebrows twitched, and he almost couldn't help going up to beat up this man who ignored him.

But after Cai Jin finished speaking, he helped Lan Yaoer to go out immediately, walking in a hurry.

Ai Xiao looked at the other two in doubt, Fan Siyuan and Xi Chen exchanged glances, and gave a brief explanation of what happened to the Lan family.

It turned out that after Ai Xiao healed himself and brought Yan Su away from the Lan family, the elders of the Black Gu family came to him, hoping to get a reasonable judgment on the competition between the two families.

Lan Feng thought that this was an invalid contest. The Golden Toad Black Snake Gu had been lost for a long time. With the ability of the black Gu saint Bai Su, it was impossible for the older generation to cast the Golden Toad Black Snake Gu anyway. The clan is responsible for this non-compliance with the competition rules within the clan, and shall not initiate challenges in the next 50 years.

Elder Hei Gu said that although the person who suffered the poison of the Gu was fine, it was not the Lan family's solution, and it should be judged that the black Gu won.If you don't believe that the Golden Toad Black Snake Gu was refined by Bai Su himself, you can test it yourself, but after Bai Su cast the Gu, he got backlash and is recuperating in the clan, so he needs to send someone from the Lan family to go there in person.

"Old Patriarch Lan went in person, but returned with a serious injury." Xi Chen took up the conversation.

Xi Chen thought for a while, then took out his mobile phone, turned to the SMS column, and pushed it from the table to Ai Xiao's side.

"Xi Chen, what are you doing?" Fan Siyuan looked shocked.

Xi Chen squeezed his palm and made a please gesture to Ai Xiao.

Ai Xiao was so nervous by the two of them that he picked up the phone inexplicably and turned on the screen.

Yan Su frowned and leaned over to watch together.

The text message conversation window opened by Xi Chen is not so much the cause of Lan Feng's injury, but an investigation report on this matter is more appropriate. Ai Xiao looked down from the first message and basically figured out the whole story of the matter.

Lan Feng was indeed injured in the Black Gu Clan, but he escaped with serious injuries because he and the elders of the Black Gu Clan fought against the saint Bai Su.Bai Suben's body was like a child's because of refining the poisonous voodoo since she was a child, and she couldn't develop, but after she suffered the backlash of the voodoo, her body unexpectedly developed again, and within seven days, she had the exquisite figure of a normal girl. Although the Bai family was confused, they didn't find out what's wrong with Bai Su's body, so they just regarded it as the stimulating effect of King Gu.

The change of the matter is that on the day Bai Su left the retreat, Bai Su, who was sitting quietly, woke up from the retreat, and the first to suffer was the mother who had been waiting by her side, the patriarch of the black gu—Bai Jing, and the defenseless mother was instantly killed by Bai Su. Bai Su kills, but the person is dead but not stiff, still controlled by Bai Su like a puppet, and continues to hurt other people in the clan.

The day Lan Feng arrived was when the joint resistance of the elders of Hei Gu was defeated by Bai Su. In the end, with the help of Lan Feng and his party, only three elders escaped.

"Also, there has been a change in the 'Swallowing Plan', so quickly bring the 'Son of Swallowing' back to the headquarters, and do whatever it takes."

Ai Xiao read the last text message again, "What is this stuff?"

Xi Chen saw him pointing to the last text message on the screen.

"It's you. 'Son of Devourer' is your code name."

"Pfft——" Ai Xiao couldn't help laughing out loud, "What are you doing? Are you kidding me? I don't usually see you so humorous, brother Chen..."

Xi Chen and the two still looked serious, and they didn't mean to be joking at all.

"No... No way... Why didn't I know I have such an awesome code name?" Ai Xiao looked at the solemn expressions of the two, and was strongly shaken by the idea that Fan Siyuan and the two of them were playing a prank on him, but he still didn't know why. .

"A joke." Yan Su, who had been silent all this time, suddenly sneered, looking at Fan and Xi with murderous intent in his eyes, "Just the two of you?"

Just as Xi Chen was about to speak, the table in front of him was "boomed" by a ball of fire. Xi Chen immediately blocked Fan Siyuan with his arm, and took a few steps back, only to find that behind him was a huge black dog. Blocking the way, he bared his teeth and barked at them.

When the smoke cleared in front of them, Xi Chen found that standing in front of them was the black-haired boy in the closet earlier. At this moment, he was holding a fireball with his bare hands in his right hand, as if he was about to throw it in the faces of the two of them in the next second.

"Stop, Little Treasure!" Ai Xiao quickly called him to stop, looking at the people around him, including the stupid dog, who were all looking at their swords and swords, and then looked at the scorched wood and broken fruit dregs all over the ground, Ai Xiao felt a little headache .

However, Yan Su encouraged Xiaobao and said behind him: "The speed is not bad."

Ai Xiao glared at Yan Su, Yan Su shrugged indifferently, with an innocent face.

I haven't made a move yet!

Fan Siyuan stood up from behind Xi Chen, with his hands half-raised in front of him, "I'm going, I haven't finished talking yet, don't do anything!"

Ai Xiao stepped forward and patted Xiaobao on the shoulder, watching Xiaobao obediently put the fireball into his body, and pouted his chin at the stupid dog. He didn't shrink in size, but just lay lazily on the side.

"Sit down and talk." Ai Xiao helped up the stool that had fallen to one side, and motioned for everyone to sit down.

Unlike the hostility of Yan Su and the others, Ai Xiao doesn't believe that his friends will hurt him.

If there is a misunderstanding or something, just sit down and clarify.

"Getting close to you is just a task assigned to me by the headquarters." Fan Siyuan said with some difficulty, "At first I thought it was because the talisman secrets you hid were related to the patriarch, so the headquarters sent me to collect information by your side. After all, the patriarch has already I have been traveling for more than 20 years, and things are not peaceful recently. It would be great if I could get news from you, the patriarch. But when I reported that your method of drawing talisman seals was indeed taught by me, the headquarters was delayed. You are not allowed to enter the headquarters to report, but let me still follow you, and inform me that Xi Chen will carry out the mission with me, and officially name it as the 'Swallowing Project'."
