Chapter 4 Ask
In the next few days, Chen Xu never saw Xia Fan again in the village.
Even if you ask the villagers, the answers given by the villagers are the same and do not know them.
He tried to leave the village and find the other party's whereabouts, but a strange scene happened.
No matter how he goes, he will eventually return to the starting point.
For this reason, he specifically asked the villagers for advice, but this time the villagers gave different answers.
"This is the immortal chief who used immortal techniques around the village. No one can enter or leave the village without the permission of the immortal chief."
Chen Xu was completely shocked.
On the one hand, he was a "immortal method" that shocked the mysterious young people, and on the other hand, he was shocked by the deep meaning behind the same circle.
Out of caution, he began to keep striking indirectly trying to learn more about Xia Fan.
However, the results were not satisfactory and the results were minimal.
He could even clearly feel that the villagers' answers were concealed.
He didn't ask the truth because he knew that his behavior had caused a rebound in the village. The villagers who had greeted him enthusiastically in the past began to become cold and distant. If it weren't for Xia Fan's order, even the peasant woman who took care of his food and daily life would not have come.
This situation undoubtedly made Chen Xu even more upset.
"Your health is fine, it's time to leave here."
On that day, Chen Xu, who was sitting at the entrance of the village, finally waited for Xia Fan who was late.
"...Senior, can I ask you some questions before leaving?"
Chen Xu stared at the lazy and casual mysterious young man in front of him and said silent for a while.
"Ask, but I don't guarantee that the answer will satisfy you."
Xia Fan yawned lazily.
“…”
Chen Xu had many questions in his mind, but after seeing the other person, he didn't know where to ask.
He looked at the village in front of him, and suddenly he couldn't help but smile with a self-deprecating smile.
"Senior, why did you take these people in there?"
"Hold in? No, you said it wrong. I actually never thought about taking them in at first, but they took the initiative to rely on me. In addition, it looked very pitiful to see them, so I casually drew a piece of land for them."
Xia Fan shook his head carelessly and said.
"But every time they mention you, I find that they seem to be very afraid of you. How could they take the initiative to rely on you?" Chen Xu frowned and puzzled.
"Because I killed a lot of people in front of them!" Xia Fan said lightly.
"Um?"
When Chen Xu heard this, he turned his head to look at the other person in shock.
"Did you forget who they were before?"
Xia Fan's face was still calm.
"I know."
Chen Xu suddenly fell into silence.
"Don't let the illusion in front of you blind your eyes. You will never want to know how many unknown sins are hidden behind these beauty that people yearn for." Xia Fan said in a faint tone.
"So you banned them?" Chen Xu said.
"You are wrong again. In fact, I have never restricted their freedom. As long as they want to leave, I will let it go at any time. Do you think no one has left in these years? However, it won't take long before they will return here." Xia Fan said. "Because compared to the outside world, only here can make them live like a person."
"……I see."
Chen Xu sighed.
"What about you, senior? Why do you want to live in seclusion in the mountains and escape from the world?"
"Do you think I don't like the flower world outside?" Xia Fan shrugged. "But the world outside is more dangerous than you think. The ability to ask such a question means that you have not touched the other side of this world yet."
"The other side of the world?" Chen Xu said in deep confusion.
"For example, how good is the person who chased you before?" Xia Fan said casually.
"They are all the best masters in the world, otherwise my second brother who is overly high-minded would not have recruited them." Chen Xu said in a deep voice.
"However, the master in your eyes is just a third-rate guy who is responsible for running errands on the other side of the world. Do you understand that?" Xia Fan said.
"Is there really a god in this world?"
For some reason, looking at Xia Fan, who was mysteriously showing all kinds of magic, Chen Xu couldn't help but blurt out and debut.
"I don't know if there are gods or not. I only know that there are indeed strong people in the outside world who are as powerful as gods." Xia Fan said with a rare serious look on his face. "Even if I face these people, I will be afraid of them."
"...Senior, aren't you bluffing me?"
Chen Xu widened his eyes as if he was listening to a book of heaven.
"Does it really come to know when you go back and ask your elders? Logically speaking, people like you who come from a powerful family should know more inside information than ordinary people. Why do you know nothing when you get here?"
Xia Fan glanced at the other party with a strange look.
“…”
Chen Xu remained silent.
Because he has never heard his elders talk about these things.
Although he was from a prominent family, he was naughty and willful since childhood, which often caused chaos in the mansion. Because he was the youngest son in the family, his parents and elders were very tolerant and loving, and he did not punish him easily.
Until he almost drowned his childhood playmate during a playful play, his parents and elders were finally furious and sent him, who was only eight years old, back to his ancestral home in Yangchuan. At the same time, he invited several strict teachers to manage him, and Chen Xu's personality gradually changed.
I forgot to say that the childhood playmate who was almost killed by him back then was the Seventh Prince of His Majesty the dynasty.
The other party’s mother is his father’s biological sister. In terms of blood relationship, the two are cousins.
It’s no wonder that parents and elders were furious when they learned about this.
After leaving his home in the capital, Chen Xu lived in his ancestral residence in Yangchuan for six years. His parents had not returned to Yangchuan to visit him once in the past six years. Finally, when he was fifteen years old, he was allowed to return to the capital.
However, the good times did not last long. Half a year later, his father forced him to send him back to Yangchuan, along with his mother and brother, and others due to the court situation.
Perhaps it was because of the lack of parental companionship and teaching for many years, which made him and his two brothers have obvious differences in their behavior. At least in the eyes of outsiders, his two brothers are typical images of young and innocent young men. In contrast, Chen Xu is like a playboy who is not good at doing things.
In fact, Chen Xu was not unaware of this, especially after returning to the capital after six years, the two brothers who were once familiar with each other made him feel a strong sense of strangeness.
His elder brother became serious.
His second brother became a young man.
Outsiders praised them for being a father.
But Chen Xu doesn't like such elder brothers and second brothers, because they are no longer the older brothers who accompany them in their childhood memories, but are the image of a strict elder.
The problem is whether he doesn’t like it or not. From the bottom of his heart, he still respects and loves his two brothers very much.
After hearing the secret of the world that Xia Fan talked about, Chen Xu couldn't help but fall into random thoughts.
Perhaps, during his six years away from the capital, he might have missed many things that he shouldn't have missed.
At this moment, Chen Xu suddenly wanted to return to Yangchuan immediately, and even more wanted to go to the capital to ask his father for confirmation and answering questions.
However, when Chen Xu thought of his elder brother's death and his second brother secretly attacked him, he became upset.
He could not go back to Yangchuan. Since his second brother was determined to kill him, going back to Yangchuan would be like falling into a trap.
The most correct choice now should be to go to the capital to report everything to my father.
"Someone has come, and the people who come are not good."
