In the hall, Wu Ruo was talking to Lao Hei about what happened in the store recently.
"Grandpa, someone came to the store recently to inquire about the talisman drawn by the hag."
Wu Ruo raised her eyebrows and asked, "Are you asking about the talisman, or the person who drew the talisman?"
"They just want to know who drew the talisman. They also gave me a big banknote, looking very anxious.
Wu Ruo guessed that the person who inquired about the hag was probably the mayor.
At this time, Jixi walked into the hall in a daze.
Wu Ruo's eyes showed doubts: "Didn't you say to go to sleep?"
Ji Xi didn't speak, and sat next to Wu Ruo and poured himself a cup of tea.
Wu Ruo continued to discuss matters with Lao Hei.
Ji Xi put down the teacup, looked at Lao Hei, then at Wu Ruo, and suddenly raised his hand to touch Wu Ruo's face.
Wu Ruo subconsciously grabbed his hand and touched her face: "Is there something on my face?"
Lao Hei stared at Wu Ruo's face for a moment, then shook his head: "No.
Ji Xi blinked his eyelids, his dull eyes gradually became clear, looked at Wu Ruo and said, "You have gum in the corner of your eyes."
"..." Wu Ruo's eyes twitched, let go of his hand, and rubbed the corners of his eyes.
Ji Xi looked left and right in the hall in confusion, then got up and left.
Wu Ruo looked at Lao Hei inexplicably: "Let's continue."
After a while, Ji Xi walked in again with a blank face, sat back in the seat just now, and took another cup to pour tea for himself.
Wu Ruo glanced at him and said to Lao Hei: "Before the competition is over, you have to collect the books of profound arts from various countries as soon as possible..."
"Well, after I go back, I will do this thing, and I will definitely find books from all countries for you." Old Hei promised with a smile and patted his chest.
Wu Ruo smiled slightly.
Ji Xi put down the teacup, and stretched out his hand to Wu Ruo.
Wu Ruo grabbed his wrist again: "What do you want to do?"
"I..." Ji Xi's expression was a little dull: "I want to go to the latrine."
Old Hei: "..."
Wu Ruo was speechless for a while: "If you want to go to the latrine, go there, do you still want me to take you there?"
Old Hei asked: "Master Jixi doesn't know where the hut is? Do you want me to take you there?"
"No need." Ji Xi rubbed his face, got up quickly and left the hall, and met Ye Ji who came to look for him.
Ye Ji looked at him and saw that he was fine, so he dragged him back to his room to sleep.
Ji Xi unbuttoned his belt, stopped, thought for a while, and put it on again.
Ye Ji, who was already lying down, looked at him strangely: "Why don't you go to bed yet?"
Ji Xi looked at the room he lived in with a confused face: "I'm going to the latrine."
"..." Ye Ji sat up: "Didn't you go there just now?"
"I..." Confusion and daze flashed in Ji Xi's eyes: "I went to find Xiao Ruo just now, you rest first, I'll be back soon."
Seeing Ye Ji getting up and getting dressed again, he stopped him aloud: "You don't have to follow, I'll be back soon."
Ji Xi turned around and flew out. Halfway through the flight, his expression was suddenly in a trance, he turned around involuntarily, and flew to the hall.
Wu Ruo glanced at him, and took out a bottle of pills to Lao Hei: "How is your health recently? Are you going to be promoted soon?"
Old Hei said happily: "As long as you work hard for another two or three months, you should be able to advance. If it were the same as before, I wouldn't even dare to think about such a thing. It's all thanks to the Lord."
Wu Ruo smiled slightly: "You have to practice hard, maybe you can be promoted to the fifth or sixth level, and it will not be a problem to live to about two hundred years old by then."
"I will."
Ji Xi sat down and poured himself another cup of tea with another cup.
Wu Ruo pointed to the two cups in front of him and said, "You drank these two cups before, and the tea is still hot now."
"Oh." Ji Xi lazily replied, put down the teacup, and reached out to touch Wu Ruo again.
Wu Ruo had expected him to do this move, quickly grabbed his wrist, frowned and said, "Jixi?"
Lao Hei frowned, feeling that there was something wrong with Ji Xi today.
"Why are you holding my hand?" Ji Xi withdrew his hand, looked at Lao Hei in confusion, and then looked at the hall.
Wu Ruo: "..."
Old Hei stood up and said, "Master, there are still many things waiting for me to deal with in the store, so I won't disturb your rest here anymore."
Wu Ruo also stood up and stretched: "I'm going to bed too."
He walked out of the hall with Lao Hei and returned to his room, and saw Jixi fly back to the backyard the moment the door was closed.
Wu Ruo closed the door and walked into the inner room. Seeing the man resting on the bed, she couldn't help showing a smile. She immediately put the matter of Jixi behind her, quickly took off her robe and walked forward, kissed him, and lay down next to the man.
Hei Xuanyi opened his eyes slightly, saw that it was his princess, and habitually took her into his arms and continued to sleep.
That night was the competition for the top ten rankings. There were three major arenas, which were the children's competition and the first and second-level competitions. Fighting has turned into a martial arts competition, so everyone is not interested in low-level competitions, but it hinders them from placing bets and gambling. Many people want to take the opportunity to make a lot of money and pay money to bet, and then go to the arena to watch the competition.
Wu Ruo is not interested in gambling, but he still came to the border town at night, and Jixi was with him.
Speaking of Jixi, he always felt strange that other people didn't come up with him because the low-level competition was boring, but Jixi came. In the past, he would never follow such a boring thing. Of course, Ye Ji also wanted to come, but now he had to stay in the palace because he was responsible for training the children.
Wu Ruo regained consciousness and looked at Ji Xi who followed him wherever he went: "Do you have anything to buy?"
When Ji Xi heard this, some emotion appeared on his empty expression, and Wu Ruo shook his head at him.
Wu Ruo ignored him and continued to go to the competition, but what he was looking at was not the competition, but to find the mayor.
Standing with the referee, the head recorder looked very calm when he saw Wu Ruo, as if he guessed that he would come to the door, and when Wu Ruo approached, he said, "Come with me."
Wu Ruo and Ji Xi exchanged glances, and followed the director of recording to a tent not far from the ring.
The head recorder poured a cup of tea for the two of them: "Please drink."
Wu Ruo took a sip of water and asked, "I came to look for the mayor this time. I don't know if the old man is there?"
Although his mother asked him to wait until the next time he meets the mayor, who knows when the next time will be, he might as well come to the door and ask clearly. The mayor wants to answer what he knows and will definitely be willing to see him.
The head recorder sneered: "If he heard you call him an old man, he would definitely be anxious with you, but unfortunately, he is not here.
"Then when will he come back?"
The director of recording paused, and frowned: "He may not come out again."
Wu Ruo stood up abruptly: "What do you mean?"
"He was discovered by the clan last night because he used a secret technique that could not be revealed in front of everyone. This morning, he was brought back to the clan to wait for the clan leader to deal with him.
"Secret technique? What secret technique?" Wu Ruo couldn't help but think of the spells in the cultivation world, could it be...
The director of recording did not answer his words, and continued: "He knew early on that he would be taken back after using the secret technique, and he also knew that you would come to ask some questions sooner or later, so he ordered me to wait for you here. Before that, I need to ask you something."
Wu Ruo sat down: "Excuse me."
"Do you own Grocery Store No. 1?"
Wu Ruo replied without thinking: "Yes."
The recording manager took out a piece of paper: "I saw someone using this kind of talisman a few days ago, and then I bought it from him with a lot of money. The person who sold me said that this talisman came from Shop No. 1. I bought it, and the people in Shop No. 1 also admitted to it, I just want to know, who is the person who drew this talisman?"
Wu Ruo said: "Before I answer you, I want to know that the mayor seems to know the existence of this talisman?"
The head recorder shook his head: "I haven't told him yet, I don't want to make him happy in vain. If he knew about this, he wouldn't go back with his tribe even if he resisted to the end this morning."
Wu Ruo took the talisman and said, "This was drawn by a woman who saved me, and she asked me to sell it."
The director of recording looked anxious: "Who is this woman? What's her last name? What does she look like?"
"Her surname is You, and her name is You Yingran. Her appearance has been destroyed, but I heard from her family that she used to look very similar to me."
"It's her, it's really her, that's great, she's not dead." The record manager narrowed his eyes at Wu Ruo in joy: "Have you already guessed something?"
Wu Ruo said directly: "I guess she might be my grandmother."
The manager of the recording system lowered his face and glared at Wu Ruo: "Since you guessed her identity, why didn't you tell the master? Do you know that the master has been looking for her for more than forty years?"
Wu Ruo looked helpless: "But she doesn't even dare to recognize my mother, so how can I let this matter out without her consent."
"Why? Why doesn't she recognize Miss?" The director of recording was puzzled: "By the way, you just said that she was disfigured?"
"Well, I heard from her family that her face was sunburned in order to find a child, and she still refuses to heal her face.
"Can I see her?"
Wu Ruo shook her head: "I'm worried that you will scare her away, and then it will be difficult to find someone else."
"But master wants to see her very much."
"She should also really want to see the mayor. She has come to the stadium many times to see the mayor, but she has a knot in her heart, which makes her afraid to recognize her daughter and the person she likes.
The director of recording said angrily: "Should we let her hide like this for the rest of her life?"
"Of course not, let her agree to have her face healed first, otherwise, she will always feel inferior and dare not see the mayor.
The director of recording also felt that what he said was reasonable, since the person has been found, there is no rush.
Wu Ruo said: "I have told you what you want to know, can you answer my question now?"
The manager of the record sees the truth.
"He won't talk about it."
The director of recording resumed his calm appearance before: "As long as I know, I will tell you."
As if afraid that he would go back on his word, Wu Ruo quickly asked, "Do you know who the holy son who hunted down me is? Is he the holy son of the Hidden Clan?"
The director of recording replied: "Yes, he is the holy son who was selected after Miss left the Hidden Clan. His name is Qian Chen. He left the Hidden Clan two years ago because he reached the age of experience."
Wu Ruo said again: "My mother said that if the Holy Son is the Holy Son of the clan, she might kill me because of something. , let me ask the Mayor, I don’t know if the Mayor knows why the Son wants to kill me.
"The master doesn't know, but the master guesses that he may be troubled by his pre-dream."
"Dream?" Wu Ruo frowned: "What do you mean? Is there a dream of desire?"
The corner of the director's mouth twitched: "It's a prophecy."
"You mean he can dream about things in the future?"
"Yes." Chief Lu said: "The saint son and saint daughter of the Hermit tribe can dream of their own future, and the same is true for the young lady."
"The young lady you are talking about is my mother?"
"Well, since she was twelve years old, Miss has often dreamed that she gets along with a young man, and can even experience her own feelings in the dream. Therefore, she has had a deep love for the young man in her dream since she was a child, until she went out to experience When I meet a young man, this dream stops."
"The young man in her dream is my father?"
"right."
Wu Ruo was surprised: "There is such a thing."
The recording supervisor gave him a faint look: "If it weren't for your father who was destined in Miss's dream, the master would never agree to Miss being with your father, because your father's ability is too weak for the hidden people. , can't protect Miss's safety at all."
Although Wu Ruo is very angry that others look down on his father, but as a father, he can understand the mood of the mayor. Everyone hopes that their children can live happily and have someone who can protect them.
"Miss once said that there were two endings in her dream, one where the whole family died unexpectedly, and the other where the whole family was happy together."
Wu Ruo looked at the supervisor in shock.
So his mother knew in her last life that their family would be killed
"Miss was once troubled by the dream that the whole family died unexpectedly, and she almost lost herself in cultivation?"
"what happened?"
"She thought about killing all those who killed them before the nightmare happened."
"..." Wu Ruo quickly asked, "Can she dream of who killed her family?"
"At the beginning, I only dreamed of the other party's blurred face, but I couldn't see the other party's appearance clearly. Later, the master stopped this idea. The lady never had nightmares again, and rarely had good dreams. Every day in the dream, she only followed the The future husband cultivates feelings."
Wu Ruo was curious: "How did the mayor stop it?"
Dreaming is beyond his control. Could it be that the mayor still has the ability to enter other people's dreams
"The mayor said that if the nightmare came true, he would do everything possible to turn things around for her so that she could live happily with her family. Since then, the mayor has been looking for a way to change her destiny."
"!!!!!!"
At this time, Wu Ruo was so surprised that he couldn't speak, and couldn't help but think of the fact that the mayor of the previous life sent him to be reborn. He was both excited and admired this grandfather.
The director of recording took a sip of tea and continued: "The master thinks that the son will kill you, it must be because of the pre-dream, and the son has reached the point of falling into a dream, otherwise he wouldn't be able to see clearly in the dream and let him have a nightmare. Who is the culprit?"
