Chapter 975 Entrust
In the ancient city, everything remained the same, and the cold wind cut people's faces like knives. Only those places blocked by the dilapidated city walls seemed a little warmer.
There was an indescribable look of hesitation on Jiang Yingrong's face. Although she was a daughter, she acted resolutely and decisively, not inferior to a man. But at this moment, her eyes flickered slightly, obviously she was restless, and she couldn't make a decision about something.
Suddenly, there was the sound of children laughing and playing not far away.
Jiang Qingcheng's childish laughter rang like a bell, bringing pure vitality to this dead world.
Jiang Yingrong turned her head to look sideways, and saw her precious daughter circling around Xiaoman. Although she had a charming smile on her face, Xiaoman was still like a cold stone, unmoved by it.
Unknowingly, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Jiang Yingrong's mouth.
How shrewd she is, I have already seen a clue from Xiaoman's expression.
Although this kid looked impatient, his eyes had already betrayed his wishes. It was a longing, an indescribable joy.
The misery and sorrow condensed between his eyebrows seemed to dissipate in the girl's laughter.
However, his self-esteem allowed him to still maintain that reserve and indifference that were as thin as paper.
The corners of Jiang Yingrong's mouth trembled slightly, and her heart became more and more hesitant. Especially when looking at Qiao Xiaoyingran's daughter, there was a thin layer of mist in her eyes.
Suddenly, Jiang Yingrong's face changed slightly, she turned around abruptly, and looked towards a certain place. At this moment, an extremely dangerous aura exuded from her body, as if she was no longer a woman from a good family, but a powerful warrior who had experienced many battles and killed people like hemp.
However, at the next moment, her tense nerves had already relaxed.
Because it was not a stranger who appeared behind her at this time, but Jiang Yuping, the chief steward of this ancient city.
The old man with the cultivation base of a peak spiritual person stepped forward slowly, came to her side, followed her gaze just now, and said slowly: "You, want to go home?"
Jiang Yingrong was taken aback, and said, "How do you always know?"
This time, she didn't directly express objection or rejection, but used a questioning tone.
Jiang Yuping chuckled, and said: "Qingcheng is growing up slowly. Even if she is here with the care of the city lord and the old man, she can't get the resources equivalent to those in the main city." He sighed and said: "Qingcheng's aptitude is good, but it can't be abandoned any longer. You...you don't want her to live an ordinary life like this, do you?"
Jiang Yingrong was silent for a while, then suddenly said: "If it is really possible to be safe and sound, then it may not be a blessing to be calm."
"Hehe, Ping An An?" Jiang Yuping sneered, and said: "In our Great Ruins, if there is no super strength, how can there be such a word as Ping An? You, don't deceive yourself and others."
Jiang Yingrong gritted her teeth and said, "Why do you always tell me these things?"
Jiang Yuping's eyes flickered, he looked at the two children playing in the distance, and said: "Although the blood power in that kid's body is a bit incomplete, he is extraordinary after all. Hehe, since he was hunted down by the Blood Dragon family, it would be cheaper Let's do it."
Jiang Yingrong's heart moved slightly, and she said, "Do you like him?"
Jiang Yuping pondered for a moment,
Said: "The blood on his body was forcibly stripped. Although he was lucky enough to save his life, no one can guarantee any outstanding achievements in the future." After a pause, he continued: "However, this son is still It is worth cultivating. Perhaps, a miracle has really appeared on him."
Jiang Yingrong's eyes flickered, looking at the figures of the two children in front of her, thinking deeply.
Suddenly, Xiaoman's eyes lit up, and he left Jiang Qingcheng beside him, twisted his body, and ran towards the corner of the street.
Jiang Qingcheng was slightly taken aback, and pouted her small mouth. But soon she smiled, even the corners of her eyes narrowed, because she also saw the two familiar figures at the corner of the street.
With a smile on his face, Ouyang Ming stretched out his hands, and lifted up Xiao Man who was rushing towards him.
After a few days of separation, I really miss this little guy.
"Master Yu, you are back." Jiang Yingrong stepped forward with a smile, took her daughter's little hand calmly, and said, "Going out this time should be rewarding."
"Hehe, if you follow Mr. He, of course you won't return empty-handed." Ouyang Ming smiled and said, "We found some good wood, which is just right for Xiaoman." He stretched out his hand and rubbed Xiaoman's messy hair. With a hint of doting smile.
Xiaoman showed a rare smile. He is a taciturn child, but he understands who is really good to him.
"Hey, Grandpa He, who is this?" Jiang Qingcheng's bell-like voice rang out, staring at Xiaolan with curiosity.
Ouyang Ming sighed softly, and said: "This is a little girl we rescued outside. Her mother died tragically at the hands of a foreign race. Now in Daxu, she has no relatives or reasons."
"Ah..." Jiang Qingcheng gently covered his mouth, and the color of horror flashed in his eyes.
Although she was born in the Great Ruins, Jiang Yingrong protected her meticulously. Coupled with the vague attention of the city lord and Jiang Yuping, it is naturally impossible for anyone to dare to trouble her. Therefore, even though Jiang Qingcheng had heard some news about alien races, he couldn't understand the great harm they caused to the Daxu human race.
But now, when a girl younger than her was standing alone in front of her, she could vaguely feel the danger and cruelty in it.
"Foreign race?" Jiang Yuping stepped forward suddenly, and asked in a deep voice, "When did they appear? What race are they?"
He Jian said slowly: "It's the blood dragon family."
"Hiss..." Jiang Yuping took a deep breath. Even among the many alien races, the blood flood dragon was extremely powerful. His eyes immediately became dignified, and he said, "Where do they appear?"
He Jian shook his head and said: "Don't be nervous, they have already retreated." He sighed and said: "It's just a pity, those villages are gone."
Jiang Yuping was startled, and said in surprise: "How could they be so easy..." His words stopped suddenly, his eyes sized up the two of them for a moment, he nodded slowly, and stopped talking.
He was a bystander in the battle between Ouyang Ming and Ji Qi, so he naturally knew the strength of this little guy. With the addition of He Jian who lives in seclusion, it is not difficult to kill a blood flood dragon.
However, he never imagined that what these two people did was not only to kill the blood dragon team, but also killed the blood dragon prince Dong Ruyu. And in the end, he fought hard against the blood dragon king Dong Chenyu, and escaped. If Jiang Yuping knew all this, it would be absolutely impossible to be as peaceful as he is now.
Jiang Qingcheng rolled her eyes, stepped forward and took Xiaolan's hand, and said with a smile, "little sister, let's play together." After speaking, she looked at Xiaoman expectantly.
Xiaoman looked disdainful, as if he wasn't interested in it.
However, Ouyang Ming nodded slightly towards him, Xiaoman hesitated for a moment, then nodded silently, and followed them away.
He Jian chuckled and said, "It seems that this old man is unnecessary."
He asked Xiaoman to practice sculpting, just to sharpen his temper, make him calm and release his hostility. However, after seeing Jiang Qingcheng's actions, he knew that there were many ways to resolve this kid's hostility, and perhaps it really didn't need to be so troublesome.
When the three children walked away, Jiang Qingcheng put away the smile on his face and said, "You two, I want to say goodbye to you."
"What?" Both Ouyang Ming and He Jian were taken aback, feeling a strange feeling in their hearts.
Jiang Yuping coughed lightly, and said, "Miss, I'm leaving first." He nodded slightly to the other two, turned and left.
Ouyang Ming looked at Jiang Yingrong with piercing eyes, and said with a light smile, "Miss Jiang, you are really a member of the Black Dragon family."
Jiang Yingrong lowered her eyes slightly, and said, "Master Yu, I am the daughter of the chief of the Jiang clan. Because of conflicts with my family, I took my daughter and ran away from home." She sighed and said, "However, after so many years, I I also want to understand that blood is thicker than water, no matter what I choose, I can't hide the fact of this identity. So, I plan to... go home."
Ouyang Ming was in a trance for a while, and he also thought of Lao Jiangtou, Ni Yinghong and others.
The word home seems to have become so alluring.
He Jian suddenly said, "Are you going to take Xiaoman away?"
Ouyang Ming was slightly stunned, and there was a trace of strangeness in his eyes.
However, Jiang Yingrong said without hesitation: "Exactly, although Xiaoman is not from the Heilongjiang family, the blood flowing in him is also the blood of Daxu. Only in Daxu can he have the opportunity to take off again " She looked at Ou Yangming with scorching eyes, and said: "If you are doing his best, you should let him go with me to see if you can seize this opportunity."
Ouyang Ming looked at Xiaoman who was playing not far away and Xiaolan who had just joined and was a little shy and cautious.
As if sensing something, they also turned their heads and showed sunny smiles.
He Jian pondered for a moment, then said slowly: "Master Yu, there are many dangers in the Great Ruins, and the place you are going to is also the same. No matter what, give them a stable environment."
Jiang Yingrong looked solemn, and said: "Don't worry, I will treat these two children as my own, and I will take good care of them for you."
Ou Yangming sighed a long time. In fact, he didn't get along with Xiaoman and Xiaolan for a long time, but maybe it was pity or fate, and there was a concern in his heart that belonged to them.
He wouldn't mind taking them to the spirit world if possible.
But, as Jiang Yingrong said, this is Xiaoman's real home.
Slowly turning around, Ouyang Ming bowed deeply to Jiang Yingrong, and said, "So, I thank you on behalf of the two of them..."
The sun was setting in the west, and the afterglow sprinkled on the earth and his body, forming a sharp shadow contrast.
All of this seems to be a break, leaving this cause and effect forever.
