Chapter Twenty-Five: The Beautiful Home in the Deep Mountains

  "Xiao Chui Shige, don't be like this anymore, okay?! If you continue like this, I'll dislike you more and more!"

  The girl's face also turned icy after finishing speaking, it can be seen that she was really angry.

  "Alright, quiet sister, I won't force you. One day, I'll move your heart with my sincerity. Master is in the living room, go take a look at the old man."

  The little white face saw itself losing interest and could only change to a happy topic.

  "Oh? My dad is in the living room? Hehe, I'd better hurry up and find him! Xiao Shifu, I have something to attend to, I'll leave first."

  The girl walked quickly into the living room with a happy look on her face.

  The young man looked at the girl's back as she turned around, but didn't respond to her words. His eyes were filled with a resentful expression, thinking about how he had been brought from the streets to this deep mountain by his master since he was very young, and no longer had to wander in the market. He never thought that there would be a little junior sister growing up with him in these mountains, until one day she went to the bustling city to study, and their chances of meeting gradually decreased, losing the closeness they had as children. His heart suddenly felt like it had been heavily hammered, having spent countless days and nights alone. Looking at the girl slowly disappearing before his eyes, he became more and more determined to conquer her, because from the moment she appeared, she had already left an impression on his heart that couldn't be shaken off.

  In the palace-like mansion, a middle-aged man with a stern face sat with his eyes closed, cultivating his spirit. It was as if everything outside had nothing to do with him, and he was completely immersed in a state of selflessness. For many years, he had not participated in worldly affairs and did not know what the world had become now. For someone like him who cultivated the truth, external changes were irrelevant, and all that mattered was cultivation.

  "Knock knock knock..."

  The sound of footsteps echoed throughout the grand hall.

  A middle-aged man with closed eyes, extremely sensitive ears. As soon as his ears caught the sound, he instinctively moved. This is the vigilance of a master, and as a cultivator, the most important thing is to improve one's vigilance. If you don't even have high vigilance, before you ascend, you will be attacked by enemies. I'm sure everyone knows that if someone can kill a cultivator who has reached the Yuan Ying stage without letting him self-destruct, then getting the Yuan Ying can help him improve his cultivation path. Therefore, cultivators are always on guard against enemy sneak attacks at all times. Who would be so stupid as to hand over their hard-earned cultivation to others? That's just nonsense.

  "Is Jing'er back?"

  The middle-aged man knew who was coming just by hearing his voice, and the person must be someone he was familiar with, otherwise he wouldn't have spoken so absolutely.

  "Dad, how do you always know it's me without even looking?"

  The girl who had just entered the palace pouted her small mouth and pretended to be angry.

  "Hehe, when you reach my level as an old man, you'll have this skill too."

  A middle-aged man looked at the girl in front of him with doting eyes. She was mischievous, but only knew how to be coquettish in front of him and her grandfather who had been cultivating in seclusion all the time. In front of outsiders, she was a different person. To others, she seemed like a quiet and beautiful fairy, impossible to fathom.

  "Hmph! Go ahead and tempt me then! By the time I reach your level, I'll be an old hag with a face full of wrinkles!"

  The girl looked adorable with her nose scrunched up.

  "Great, great! Our Jinger will always be beautiful! How can she become an old lady? By the way, why aren't you staying in school? Come back and visit your old man when you have time. Is there something you want to ask me?"

  The middle-aged man was always kind and gentle, facing the girl he couldn't get angry at all, with a smile on his face.

  "Haha, it seems nothing can be hidden from you, Dad! You're really wise and powerful! I just have a small favor to ask of you."

  The girl finished boasting with a bright red face.

  "Alas! I guess it's true that a woman is not allowed to stay at her natal home after marriage. It seems I'll be alone from now on!"

  A middle-aged man pretended to sigh and lament as if he had seen through his daughter's mind.

  "What's up! It's not what Dad thought at all! I've only met him once, and now that he's in trouble, I want to help him out!"

  The girl's face turned red all the way to her ears after she finished speaking. She looked really cute!

  "You also said it's nothing, if it's really nothing, why are you blushing like a monkey's butt?"

  A middle-aged man laughed and said.

  "Dad, stop teasing your daughter! I'm telling you, this classmate of mine is no ordinary person!"

  The girl immediately changed the subject and set a trap for his father to jump into, as you can imagine how clever this girl is.

  "Oh? What's this 'not simple' method? Quickly tell me, let your old man hear it."

  The middle-aged man urged impatiently, afraid that this little elf would not tell him in general.

  Seeing her father fall into the trap, the girl was naturally delighted, not only could she turn around from the awkward situation, but also achieve her own purpose. It's really a case of killing two birds with one stone!

  "Dad, you won't believe it! My classmate got into a fight with his classmates this morning. At first, several people were beating him up but he wasn't their match! Then our principal called some security guards to try and subdue him, but they all got taken down one by one. But that's not even the craziest part - in the end, even the police came, and what really shocked everyone was that he took them down too! They didn't stand a chance! Isn't he amazing?"

  "Oh? Is this true? What happened afterwards?"

  The middle-aged man had an astonishing look. Although he hadn't left the deep mountains for many years, he still knew a bit about the changes outside. It was still acceptable to see a worldly person knock down four or five people, but it wasn't a simple matter when one person knocked down so many people time and again.

  "Later on, he was taken away by the police! Actually, when he was fighting with others, I didn't see it at all. It's all hearsay, I just saw him being sent into the police car with my own eyes. Hehe."

  Girls' words are not surprising, and they won't rest until they die. Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning? These words can be spoken out loud. What's the point of listening to people? I don't know how many people in today's society are deceiving others. Look at that street where someone XX has cancer, then write a moving article that makes people cry, and put it there with a donation box in front. People with good hearts can't help but throw a few coins into it. If they encounter someone with more money, several hundred yuan notes will be thrown out like this, without even knowing what heartache is. This is society!

  "Daughter, didn't you say he was very fierce? How could he be caught by the police?"

  A middle-aged man said with a puzzled expression.

  Although he heard his daughter say that she had heard it from someone else, he knew how clever and resourceful she was, and she wouldn't fool herself with some trivial matter. Moreover, she rushed back from school in broad daylight to ask him to take action. This must be a matter of great concern to her.

  "As for why he volunteered to be caught in the end, I don't know either. But I do know that his family sells vegetables, and his mother works tirelessly day and night to support his education. Oh, right! And there's also the fact that the classmate who had a conflict with him comes from a very influential family, maybe he didn't want his own mother to get hurt or worry about something!"

  The girl suddenly looked as if she had thought of something.

  "Oh! So that's how it is! What's his name then?"

  A middle-aged man with an "I know" expression continued to ask.

  "Hehe, his name sounds nice! His name is Chen Pengpeng!"

  The girl giggled and said, "Huh? It seems like this name belongs to someone else? If it's not yours, why are you laughing so happily? The girls of the world are just things that can't be guessed or understood, they can only make people feel headache!"

  "Good friends, good friends, good friends..."

  A middle-aged man muttered to himself. He had something on his mind and couldn't sleep at night.

  "Dad, I've said so much, are you going to help me with this or not?"

  The girl said with an expression that if you don't help me, you'll be in trouble.

  "Hehe, if the boss says no help, you must make me restless. How dare I not help!"

  The middle-aged man was embarrassed, which means he tacitly agreed to the girl's request.

  "When will Dad send someone to propose then? Hehe."

  The girl saw her own affairs and laughed.

  "Honestly, what can I do with you? Dad promised that he would be safely sent out tomorrow, isn't that enough?! Can't we just end it like this?!"

  A middle-aged man shook his head helplessly and guaranteed the way.

  "Thanks, Dad! Hehe."

  The girl finished speaking and then hugged the middle-aged man, kissing him fiercely on his face several times before finally letting go.

  After saying so much, I'm sure everyone knows that the girl is Jia Jingjing. And hidden in these deep mountains is the Jia family of the four major families. The middle-aged man is Jia Jingjing's father, Jia Lei. She also has a grandfather named Jia Daotian, who is currently in seclusion. The mysterious Jia family does not covet wealth and glory, choosing to live a reclusive life. More than a decade ago, Jia Lei encountered a young boy on the cold and frozen streets, took pity on him, and brought him back to the deep mountains, teaching him the true way of cultivation. This adopted boy is Jia Jingjing's senior brother, Xiao Chui. Because Xiao Chui is older than Jia Jingjing, she can only address him as Senior Brother.

  At this time, a police car stopped in front of the gate of the Public Security Bureau of C City, and two people got out. The two were Lin Zidao and his son-in-law, Deputy Director Fan Qi of C City.

  Two people had just gotten off the car when the fat-eared, chubby policeman who had previously interrogated Zhen Pengpeng came running up, smiling and welcoming them with a cigarette in his hand. He wagged his tail like a flattering owner, also because only by doing so could he have today's small head position. In front of other police officers, he could still boast about it.

  "That fat guy, what about the poor kid inside? Has he finished his confession? If so, send him to Prison Number Seven immediately and have him killed!"

  Fan Qi took the cigarette handed over by Baozi, lit it for Lin Zidao, and then lit his own. He savored the smoke and exhaled a ring of smoke.
