Chapter 7: The Price of Freedom

The mansion of the Lord of Taoye Island.

I'm back!

Jiang Huai jumped off Zhizhi's back and shouted.

If it were in the past, the island owner's wife Ling Ling would rush out in anger, grab Jiang Huai's ear and scold him fiercely, and then scold Jiang Huai to wash his hands and have dinner.

But today, the old butler was welcomed by Jiang Huai.

Haha, the young master is back, the food is ready, and I’m just waiting for the young master to start dinner, so the young master quickly goes to wash his hands. The old butler is in his fifties and has a mustache.

Since Jiang Huai can remember, the old housekeeper has been in the island owner's mansion, helping the island owner's wife to take care of the trivial matters in the mansion.

Lao Zhou, where is my mother? Jiang Huai asked casually as he walked in.

Young Master, the wife asked me to hand over this letter to you, and asked me to tell you that during the time she left, she must take care of Taoye Island. The old butler smiled and handed a letter to Jiang Huai.

Jiang Huai suddenly stopped and said incredibly: Lao Zhou, didn’t you tease me? My mother left Taoye Island?

As long as he can remember, the island owner's wife Ling Ling followed him almost indifferently, fearing that he would bump into each other. It was only in the past two years that he had given Jiang Huai some freedom.

Now, the island owner’s wife was willing to leave his precious son and leave Taoye Island. Why didn’t Jiang Huai believe it so much?

Even the maid Zhizhi felt a little abrupt. Two hours ago, wasn’t the wife still stewing soup for the young master in the kitchen? Why did she leave just by saying that?

Now that's done, the young master is going to make a big splash!

Zhizhi held his forehead and sighed helplessly.

I am going to work hard again!

You didn't lie to me? Jiang Huai was asking questions.

Master, don’t be sad. The lady said that she will come back at most three months. Mr. Zhou said.

sad?

Jiang Huai didn’t know how happy he was, so why was he sad?

Finally, no one kept muttering in his ears, and no one forced him to get up every morning, and no one forced him to eat more vegetables.

Jiang Huai jumped high and cheered, and even his appetite increased sharply.

After dinner, I am hungry!

The young Jiang Huai was jumping happily like a wild horse that broke free from its reins.

The old housekeeper sighed helplessly. This scene was already as he expected. Zhizhi, why don’t you hurry up and keep up with the young master, so don’t make the young master too excited, so as not to recover from his old illness.

Zhizhi shook his head helplessly, and caught up with Jiang Huai in two steps, grabbed Jiang Huai and asked him to have a meal first.

After dinner.

Jiang Huai wiped his mouth, slapped the table, and shouted loudly: Lao Zhou, prepare the boat, I will go to Xuanyuan City to inspect the store tomorrow, and stay in the city for a few days!

Taoye Island has abundant resources. In addition to the peach blossom wine that is famous in the Galan Empire, Taoye Island has unique geographical conditions and is very suitable for growing some medicinal materials.

So in Xuanyuan City, dozens of miles away from Taohua Lake, there are three stores on Taoye Island, which specialize in selling medicinal materials produced on Taoye Island, as well as several stores selling aquatic products, and a house.

In Xuanyuan City, the Chen family on Taoye Island is also considered a wealthy family.

The old housekeeper Buxu Buji said: Young Master, the wife told me before leaving that the young master should not be allowed to leave Taoye Island. Besides, tomorrow, the people from the Honghuang Alliance will come to Taoye Island to find the reincarnated demon ancestor. All these matters require the young master to be the decision, so the young master cannot leave.

Jiang Huai instantly seemed like a deflated ball. My dear mother, just leave, why do you have to make arrangements?

no!

I finally got free, so I must not waste this opportunity.

Jiang Huai's eyes rolled and said with a smile: Lao Zhou, who doesn't know about the entire Xuanyuan City? I am just a waste who cannot practice. How could I be the reincarnation of a big devil? The people of the Prehistoric Alliance just go through the motions. It doesn't matter whether I am there or not. Now, I order you as the young island master, and you will be the manager of all matters tomorrow.

Young Master, the people from the Honghuang Alliance cannot afford to offend them. If someone does not appear at the test site, it will affect the entire Taoye Island.

Butler Zhou gently stroked his beard with his old eyes and smiled, thinking to himself, Young Master, I have seen you grow up since I was a child, and when you stick out your butt, I know what fart you want to fart, just stay on the island honestly.

Zhizhi, I will sleep in the young master’s room tonight, and you guys will stand outside the door and window of the young master tonight to protect the young master’s safety!

Butler Zhou smiled and felt a little treacherous.

Where is this protection?

This is obviously surveillance!

Jiang Huai imitated my mother and rolled his eyes hard. Only then did he realize that he was not free. This group of people should be more cautious and cautious when they were there.

Master, it’s time to take a medicinal bath.

Butler Zhou raised his mouth gently and reached out to ask Jiang Huai to the practice room.

Jiang Huai stood up with a drooping head, snorted at the old butler, and then walked into the practice room staggeringly.

After watching Jiang Huai enter the room, the old butler sighed and waved to Zhizhi. After Zhizhi jogged over, the old butler said with a serious expression: Zhizhi, did you tell the young master that breathing technique?

Zhizhi was startled, fear appeared on his slightly tender face. After taking a step back, he shook his hands desperately: Dad, it was not what I taught.

I'm still stubborn. The martial arts are passed on to you. Don't I know what they will look like after practicing the martial arts? Butler Zhou stared at his eyes and smiled angrily. Dad, it was the young master who pestered me to teach him. You don't know the young master's temper. If I don't teach him, he will be annoyed to me.

Kneel down! Butler Zhou shouted angrily.

Screaking, he knelt in front of Butler Zhou reluctantly.

The young master was weak and sickly as a child, and his body was even more different from that of ordinary people. All Qifu acupoints were blocked and he could not practice at all. He from Xuanyuan City had long diagnosed that the young master was less than 20 years old, and he could not forcefully impact the Qifu acupoints. You taught the young master's skills privately, not saving the young master, but killing him!

Zhizhi muttered grievance: The young master is already so pitiful, why can't he do whatever he wants in his lifetime?

What are you talking about? Butler Zhou, who rushed to the top of his head in anger, raised his arm, and finally, the slap couldn't bear to fall.

Then, Mr. Zhou sighed: Zhizhi, the island master and his wife have been looking for famous doctors outside for years, hoping that the young master can live a few more years, even for one day. This time, the wife left Taoye Island because she heard that a medical saint came to the Galan Empire and wanted to invite the doctor saint to Taoye Island to show the young master.

If the wife had not saved you, my father and daughter, I was afraid that our father and daughter would have died long ago. The wife was kind to us, how did I teach you in normal times? The kindness of water should be repaid with a spring. Only by taking good care of the young master can we repay the kindness. Do you understand?

Zhizhi tilted his mouth and nodded: Dad, I know everything you said, but sometimes I just can't bear to see the young master so pitiful. You said, the young master is very beautiful, and even the young masters in Xuanyuan City are not as handsome as the young master. In addition, the young master is kind-hearted, why should the young master suffer so much grievance?

Housekeeper Zhou sighed silently, thinking that this is fate!

Get up, remember to follow the young master in the future. He will never allow him to secretly practice the qi practice technique. The most important thing is that he will never allow him to leave the Tetao Ye Island half a step away! Mr. Zhou said.

Zhizhi stood up, feeling a little depressed, looked at Butler Zhou carefully and plucked up the courage: Dad, since the young master can live for at most two years, he should let him do what he likes and let him join the army. If he dies in the battle against the demons, he will still be a hero.

Unexpectedly, Butler Zhou was not furious, but just sighed and said: I feel sorry for my parents in the world, how can I bear it?

I really can't understand. The island owner and his wife are both sensible people. Why didn't they ask the young master what he thought? Zhizhi complained.

Don’t say bad things about the island master and his wife! Butler Zhou glared at Zhizhizhi, and Zhizhi stuck out his tongue playfully, took Butler Zhou’s arm, and said coquettishly: I just feel frustrated for the young master. By the way, Dad, the big demon of the demon clan is really reincarnated, hidden in our human race?

Butler Zhou narrowed his eyes and nodded.

Like everyone in the Great Six of the Great Emperor, Mr. Zhou never doubted the news that Wang Xuance risked his life to bring back.

Wang Xuance was the national teacher of the Dali Dynasty of the Middle Land and China. The Dali Dynasty was able to unify the Dali Dynasty of the Middle Land and China, and the national teacher Wang Xuance made an indelible contribution.

At the same time, Wang Xuance is also a disciple of the famous Huaiyin Villa.

Thirty years ago, on the day the Earth landed in the Great Wilderness 6, Wang Xuance sneaked into the demon clan north of the snow field alone. Ten years later, Wang Xuance, who had become the center of the demon clan's power, was exposed. He was chased by ten demon generals of the demon clan for three months and almost died in the snow field.

Wang Xuance, who returned to the human race, also brought back a shocking news.

He heard the conversation between the demon military advisor and the demon queen with his own ears, saying that the demon ancestor was about to be reincarnated in the human world.

If the reincarnated ancestor of the demon race cannot be found in time, then when the ancestor of the demon race grows up, it will be the end of the human race.

In the same year, the Great Wilderness Alliance began to look for the figure of the demon ancestor in the Great Six, trying to kill the reincarnated demon ancestor before he woke up.

Twenty years have passed, and the Great Demon Alliance has almost turned over 6 or hundreds of countries, but still has not found the reincarnated ancestor of the demon clan.

Every March, the Honghuang Alliance will search for hundreds of countries again.

Tomorrow is the day when the Honghuang Alliance comes to Taoye Island for testing.

Dad, what if, what if, what if, the young master is the reincarnation of the demon ancestor? Zhizhi frowned tightly, and his baby's fat face was full of sadness.

Don't talk nonsense!

Butler Zhou immediately covered Zhizhi's mouth and looked around vigilantly.

Who is the reincarnation of the demon ancestor? It’s not up to you to decide. People from the Great Desert Alliance will take out the test stone!

Dad, I mean, what if, what if the young master, you have to promise me that you can’t hurt the young master. Zhizhi opened the hand of Butler Zhou and looked at Butler Zhou seriously.

Only she knew that her father was once a sergeant in the coalition forces that resisted the southward movement of the demons on the snowy plains in the extreme north.

That year, her mother died at the hands of the demon spy.

Butler Zhou frowned and did not answer zhizhi's words.

The practice room is very huge, it is the largest room in the mansion, connected to Jiang Huai's bedroom.

But there are no practice facilities in the practice room. There are books all over the room, bookshelf on all sides of the walls, filled with tens of thousands of books, and all-inclusive books are everywhere on the ground and on the bed.

Jiang Huai was soaked in the medicine barrel.

The prescription was prepared by Mr. He from Xuanyuan City. Jiang Huai had to take a medicinal bath every three days since he was three years old.
