Collapse: Chasing Fire Studio

"Little ship, grandma asked you to take care of Nia before, you know how to take care of people."

"Ahem... After all, it's something grandma told me. I must do my best to complete it..." A little cold sweat broke out on my forehead, and I was a little uncertain about grandma's meaning.

"You do this, to be honest, it's a bit difficult for grandma." Yun Xuanxi took a sip of the tea in the cup.

"The identity arranged for Xiaonia before was the ferryman's widow. Now that you are with Xiaonia again, didn't you slap grandma in the face?"

"Grandma... Aren't I the ferryman?" I said with some resentment, "Albania and I were originally husband and wife, so can't we be together justifiably now?"

"Why, you want to marry more wives, the blessing of everyone, and you want your old lady to help you find a way, don't you?"

"Grandma, I, I don't need a title!" Aponia gave me a meaningful look, and said sincerely, "The captain has done many, many things for me, and he has done enough!"

"Little Nia, you don't have to speak for him." Yun Xuanxi raised her hand to stop Aponia, "Our ship family has its own rules. From the moment you returned to China, grandma has already seen you as a ship family."

"Xiaojian treats you well and does things for you. You don't have to feel guilty or indebted. As long as you think of yourself as a member of the Jian family, as long as you regard yourself as a part of the family, the family will support you and help you overcome these obstacles on the road."

"Grandma, that's what I think too." I breathed out lightly, grabbed Alponia's little hand, and wrapped it in my palm.

"Husband and wife are attracted to each other, achieve each other, grow each other, sacrifice each other, and appreciate each other. If grandma needs me to do something, I will go through fire and water for Alponia, and I will do anything."

"Captain..." Aponia's cheeks were reddish, and there was a glimmer of light in her glass-like eyes, filled with tears.She turned slightly, then rested her head lightly on my shoulder.

"I'll be with you too."

"Okay, okay, what are you doing so sad?" Yun Xuanxi waved her hands helplessly, "Who stipulates that widows cannot marry? Xiaojian, you can marry directly."

"Oh? Grandma, didn't you say..."

"What are you talking about? You are lucky to be able to marry Xiaonia. Although grandma is old, she can still speak a few words in the north." Yun Xuanxi took another sip of tea, "Wait for your wedding When the time comes, add a few more tables, and grandma also wants to invite some friends to join in the fun."

"No problem, grandma, if you give me the number of people, I will definitely greet you according to the highest standard." I said quickly, and a stone fell from my heart.

Although grandma has delegated power to the outside world and basically does not interfere in the affairs of the north, with her prestige, as long as she approves of things, everyone else can only shut up obediently.

"By the way, I heard from your aunt that you have gone to the West during this period of time. What did you do?"

"I...Grandma, I paid homage to the Immortal Master as my master, and then went to Li's house." I hesitated for a while, but said honestly.

"You worship the Immortal Master as your master!?"

Chapter 379

"You have worshiped the Immortal Master as your master!?" Grandma stared, this seemed to be the first time I saw her old man show such a surprised expression.

"Yeah... The Immortal Master also passed on the Heavenly Gang Qijue to me." I nodded embarrassingly.

"..." Yun Xuanxi's expression twitched a little, she raised her head to look at me, and took another sip of the water in the glass, as if she was hesitating about something.

"Master...how is the current situation?"

"I seemed to have amnesia before, but then I didn't seem to have amnesia." I shook my head, and to be honest, I couldn't figure out what the situation was.

In other words, grandma is the direct disciple of the master of immortality, so am I also considered grandma's younger brother now? . . . . .

"...Let's put the matter of Master aside for now." Yun Xuanxi pondered for a moment, "You should talk about the Li family's matter first."

I sighed softly, "Grandma, I suspect that there is a certain connection between the Li family and the Jian family. This time, I went to the Li family to find out the depth of the Western Military Region, and then cheated the Li family of the candidate for the immortal master."

"But...the Li family didn't give me this chance."

"I fought with Li Yuanhan first. After defeating him, I gained Li Yuanhan's approval to a certain extent, but I was quickly entangled by Qin Suyi. Qin Suyi is a smart person, she guessed my identity and purpose , I called a group of people to set up a flattering game for me. I broke her game, but she was still not convinced, but directly called out my identity and scolded me."

"Well, I've seen this girl, Qin Suyi." Yun Xuanxi nodded, "She's smart and has a flexible mind, but her heart and structure are too small, and her assessment of her abilities is not accurate enough."

"What about Li Jingqiu, you should have met Li Jingqiu, how do you feel about her?"

"I... I feel that it is somewhat different from what is described in the historical records." I said awkwardly.

In history, Li Jingqiu, as the marshal of the West, was decisive in killing and attacking. With a green front in his hand, he could judge black and white in the world.

But the last time I saw her... I always felt that the mental state of the former Marshal of the West was not particularly stable. Although the sword energy was fierce, it was more extreme and less detached.

"It's normal to have discrepancies." Yun Xuanxi nodded, "After Master Hua died in battle 40 years ago, Li Jingqiu became a little paranoid."

"After the fall of Xinyi, the Northern Military Region accepted Li Jingqiu's remnants, but even though it was a remnant, there were less than a hundred people. At that time, this man was like crazy, clamoring that he would let the Northern Military Region borrow troops for her to go back. Save Master. She even knelt in front of your grandfather, saying that as long as Beibei is willing to borrow troops, she can be your grandfather's cow or horse, whatever she wants." Yun Xuanxi sighed.

"Then... did the north borrow troops later?" I asked tentatively.

"At that time, the north was defending against the main force of the Illuminati faction of the Dengguo, and it was hard to protect itself. Where did so many idle soldiers come from?" Yun Xuanxi shook his head, "You have never experienced that war, it was too bloody and cruel. You watched your relatives and friends leave one by one, let alone Li Jingqiu, who was not crazy among the generals and soldiers in the north at that time?"

"However, after all, Master Hua's strategic significance to the Huang Kingdom is extraordinary. After thinking about it, your grandfather took a group of top boxers from the north and followed Li Jingqiu back to the west."

"Later, I got the news that Hua Xianshi stopped the commandment of the Illuminati and the Rakshasa of Diss by himself, and finally sacrificed his life to kill Rakshasa with a sword, and drove west by himself."

"After receiving the news, Li Jingqiu wanted to find the commandments of the Illuminati sect like a demon, but your grandfather was really capable enough to bring her back. Since this person was really mentally abnormal at the time, your grandfather They chained her up and locked her in a yard."

"Then... what happened next?" I swallowed and asked curiously.

"How did I know later?" Yun Xuanxi looked at me with a half-smile, "Grandma still has to integrate the army, and she's so busy all day long, why would she care about your grandpa's trivial matters?"

"If you're really interested, you can ask your grandpa's buddies. They should know some details about that year."

"Yes." I nodded, "Grandma, I also want to ask you, do you know anything about Master's current situation? You said last time that Dad's trip to the mountain was not fruitless, so you should be able to tell me what's going on now."

"About Master's current situation...Grandma knows a little about the inside story, but not much." Yun Xuanxi pondered for a moment, then said slowly.

"Xiao Jian, since you have worshiped the Immortal Master as your master, you should understand that the purpose of Taixu's cultivation is different from ours."

"God in the body, body outside the body, seek longevity." I repeated what I had learned at the time, "Master said that the reason why they practice is to seek longevity."

"Well, for longevity." Yun Xuanxi took another sip of the tea in the cup, and a deep look appeared in his red pupils, "In other words, Taixu's lineage wants to become an immortal."

"Different from us lay disciples, the few people on Taixu Mountain practiced for the sake of becoming immortals."

"Becoming a fairy? Is there really such a thing as a fairy in the world?" I looked weird, because materialists don't believe in gods and demons.

"Grandma didn't believe it at first, but now that she is old and has seen a lot, she can only say that she doesn't know." Yun Xuanxi shook her head.

"At the beginning, Master was dismissive of Cheng Xian. What she wanted was a free and happy life. But in the war that year, the death of Master Hua Xian brought a lot of shock to Master."

"After helping the Huang Kingdom to pacify the war, the old man shut himself up on the mountain and never cared about the world. Some people said that the master was crazy; some said that the master had realized the way of longevity; From the moment he died, Master's path to immortality was broken, and he was doomed to never become an immortal again in this life."

"About six years ago, there was a news from Taixu." Yun Xuanxi paused, "It is said that a traitor appeared among the six direct disciples of the master on the mountain, and attacked the master in a sneak attack, almost killing the master."

"And after that, Taixu became extremely strict with Qingyun's plan, and no longer allowed anyone to meet the immortal master in person, so later, it was also rumored that the immortal master had passed away."

"And when your father went up the mountain, it was confirmed that the master was still alive, but according to your father, the master's mental state was very strange at that time, crying and laughing at times, moody."

Yun Xuanxi took a deep breath, then let it out slowly, and pointed to the calligraphy she asked me to put away.

"And this poem is what Master asked your father to bring back after beating him half to death."

I was slightly taken aback, and began to ponder the deep meaning of the poem.

No Bodhi tree, nor stand mirror.

There is nothing in the first place, where does the dust come from? …………

Who is Bodhi, and who is the mirror?

Chapter 380

Coming out of grandma's house, I thought about it for a while, and brought Aponia to the square in the outer courtyard of the Kan's mansion.

The area of ​​the Jianjia mansion is huge, it is considered a community in a small area, and it is a town in a large area.The clan members of the main family of the ship family, together with the clan members with other surnames, have a population of tens of thousands.

And this square in the outer courtyard can be said to be everyone's entertainment center, many old people will gather here after dinner, chatting together, or having some entertainment activities.

Aponia held my arm and looked around curiously, while I led her directly to a building that looked like a martial arts gym.

But even though it was a martial arts gym, it was just because the plaque at the door said "Tan Pai Capture", and the decoration on the first floor was dilapidated, with a few tables and chairs randomly placed, and there was no one else except a young girl in a thin sweater sitting lazily at the computer desk at the front desk, holding a bag of popcorn in her hand, and a 1-liter bottle of iced black tea by her hand.

I took Aponia directly and pushed open the half-closed door and walked in. The air conditioner was turned on in the martial arts hall, and it was very cool. I saw that the girl in the front hall didn't respond, so I had no choice but to walk forward and knocked on the table.

"Who fucked! Ah! Why are you here, young master?" The girl was about to curse, but when she saw it was me, she showed a flattering expression.

"Que'er, where's your grandfather?" I shook my head helplessly, seeing this guy's crippled appearance, I was quite speechless.

"The old thing is on the second floor." Que'er poked his head out from behind the computer and looked carefully, "Master, isn't Grandma Xuan here? The old thing is playing blackjack, let me show him on the first floor."

"I didn't come." I shook my head. Blackjack is also a game of poker. Grandma doesn't allow gambling in the north, but some of the older generation who are more addicted to gambling will also play a little secretly in private.

"That's it." Que'er heaved a sigh of relief, and then slumped lazily on the seat, then pointed to the refrigerator next to him, "Master, there are popsicle drinks in the refrigerator, if you want to eat, take it yourself."

"I don't want to eat, do you want it?" I squeezed Alponia's soft little hand.

"I don't eat either." Alponia shook her head, frowning slightly and looking at the girl slumped on the chair.

Aponiya Mama can't understand the useless people on the Internet, but after all, she is a child of someone else's family, so she can't say much about it.

"Que'er, do you still have enough money on you? Would you like me to give you some pocket money?"

"Haha, the eldest young master is too polite, what a shame." Tan Que'er sat up straight in a jerk, and although she said no, she turned on the phone honestly, revealing a payment code.

"You're not too young. Find a class and hang out with these old men and old ladies. Wouldn't it be a waste of your ability?" I transferred 3000 yuan to Tan Que'er as a red envelope.

"It's okay, young master, I feel like this is quite fulfilling every day." Tan Que'er smiled cheerfully, "I'll just stay with the old man, and when he is too old to move, I will go Find a class outside."

"If you need anything, just say it, you're welcome."

"Yeah o(≧v≦)o, young master, you go to work, I will continue to watch the live broadcast."

"Yeah." I nodded and took Aponia up to the second floor.

"your friend?"

"I used to play together when I was young. Don't look at this girl as a useless person. Back then, she was also a top student in the Computer Department of Yunshen University. She even won a national gold medal in a competition." Seeing Aponia's unnatural appearance, I sighed helplessly.

"Really?" Aponia was a little surprised, "Then why did she..."

"Que'er's family is a well-known general in the north. Her grandfather used to be my grandfather's intelligence agent, and her father was also a general of Jianwen Zhuodeli." I sighed, "Que'er's grades are very good. She originally wanted to go to a foreign country to study for graduate school, but then some changes happened in the family."

"Her father died when he was away on the job, and her mother didn't want to be a widow, so she married to the East. When Que'er returned home, her grandfather was the only one left in the family. She quit her studies abroad, She stays here with her grandfather, and usually relies on the pension of the ship's family to make ends meet, and if she really has no money, she will take on some coding work."

"This, that's it..." Aponia glanced back, with pantothenic acid on the tip of her nose.

"My grandma also wanted my second uncle to find an errand for Que'er. She went to work for a few days for my grandma's sake, but she didn't seem to get used to it, so she kept the status quo."

I hugged Aponia gently, "Don't take it too seriously."

"...Well." Alponia nodded, feeling a faint sense of powerlessness in her heart.

Taking Aponia to the innermost room on the second floor, I could already hear the shouts of the crowd through the door panel, and I was not polite, so I directly opened the doorknob...
