Above The Sky

"Yes, yes, Elder Mingjian!"

Brin seemed to have some lingering fears now. He half-kneeled in front of Elder Pude's desk and reported: "I just walked around the Orsenna house a few times, and was still thinking about how to enter the house to observe the situation. I didn't expect Ian He just opened the window and told me to stay away."

Having said that, recalling the scene of being surrounded by people, Brin still felt his face and ears warm.

He is a good-natured character. He is naturally embarrassed when he is called to spy on, but who told him that he was really greedy and wanted to rob Ian of sleep fans? And then was found by Elder Pude, who was responsible for investigating information about Ian?

This is punishment, and it is also meritorious deeds.

"Um."

After listening to Brin's report, Elder Pude groaned and pondered: "Can I find you across the house and the street... Although I want you to be a little bit louder, it's also possible that you were just looking out the window. , so we can find it at the first time.”

"No no no!"

Instead, Brin struggled to argue: "I paid attention to the window - you know my eyesight, I can even find the Endal moss in the bushes, Ian was definitely not by the window before, he just found it out of thin air. scolded me, then walked straight over and scolded me for leaving!"

"Oh?"

Elder Pude looked at Brin with a half-smile, and after the other party lowered his head again in fear, he slowly said: "You should have guessed why I asked you to do this kind of thing... I thought I had offended Ian. You don't want to admit that Ian is a psyker."

"Elder, I'm just being greedy for a while, I'm not really stupid!" Brin was half-kneeling in front of the elder's desk, he begged: "If Ian is really a psionicist, then what's the use of me denying it? I can deceive me. Can you deceive others? I just hope that you can help me with a few good words in the future, and I hope that Ian will not hold grudges and will not take revenge on me in the future..."

"I also hope that you can forgive me, elder. I was really stupid. I didn't think... If I knew that Ian might be a psionicist, I would never dare to have such thoughts!"

"Um."

The old man responded softly, but Brin, who was gasping for breath, looked relieved and heaved a sigh of relief.

Elder Pude never promises easily, but since he has promised, he will definitely help him ease the relationship in the future.

He has already thought of some herbal treasures in his home. Although it is expensive, it is cheap compared to the possible revenge of a psionicist in the future.

That's right, he is really stupid. As a neighbor, he can't know who Osenna is? Even if it is a temporary outbreak, killing one or two indigenous hunters is the limit. How can it be possible to kill four? He definitely has someone to help, and that person can definitely see through the aboriginal's stealth skills hidden in the dark!

Brin is a senior herbalist. He often deals with natives and even fights. He is very aware of the ability of the redwood natives in the forest, so others may think it's nothing, but he can easily detect the strangeness in Ian's mouth. place.

And all this weirdness can be explained by "Ian awakened psionic power"!

An eight-year-old psionicist... Even among the white people, this age is ridiculously young!

"You keep watching Ian."

And just when Brin was annoyed and fearful, Elder Pude's voice sounded again: "Don't reveal it. Don't forget that everyone now knows that you are trying to rob Ian's sleeping fan, and even wandering around his house. , with bad intentions."

"If other people knew Ian was a psyker, what would they do with you to please them?"

"Continue to observe with my guard. Since Ian hasn't told me now, let's wait until he is willing to. I think, with the child's intelligence... this time is not long. Before that, I need a Someone report to me about Ian's actions, keep him safe."

Squinting, Elder Pude looked at Brin, who had already leaned over, and he said lightly: "Now, let's step back. Brin, I hope you can remember the lesson this time, we are all family members of the same blood, you watch the family. , there will naturally be retribution and punishment.”

"When Ian is willing to reveal his identity as a psionicist, I will explain all this to him, and I am sure that child will be willing to forgive you."

"Go back."

"Yes, elder."

Brin couldn't help trembling when he thought of what he might have encountered after Ian's identity as a psionicist was exposed, and he didn't dare to say more.

He bowed deeply, wiped the sweat from his forehead and left.

But after Brin staggered out of the elders' hall, Elder Pude did not pick up the documents and continued to process the documents.

He turned his head and looked out the window.

The night was getting dark and the rain was pouring, but the lights in the center of Port Harrison were still bright.

There are two sources of Bai Zhimin in the entire Harrison Port, one is a big Bai Zhimin family who was relegated from the imperial capital to this place in the past, and the other is a scattered gathering of white people who wandered across the southern border.

There is no need to say much about the scattered ones. Now they have been integrated and accepted, and now the white people of the entire Harrison Port are one family.

He Pude, in the past, was just an accidental heir of a high-ranking and dwarf in that big family. Although the main body inherited the side of the white people, he still had the characteristics of a dwarf and part of the inheritance from his father.

When the family was still brilliant, he was just a mediocre junior who was not very popular.

However, in an important plan, the entire family was relegated to this remote place in the southern border by the late emperor who is now called the 'black tyrant' due to a mistake, deprived of history, surnames and all inheritance.

All the sublimators were executed, or imprisoned in another frontier, completely losing all their heritage.

On the contrary, it was himself, because the inheritance of the dwarf father's side did not belong to the people of the white people. Instead, he escaped and was not stripped away.

With the identity of this sublime, he actually became the only authority and the only elder in the southern border after the family moved to Port Harrison.

"Oh... it's been so many years..."

Thinking back, the old man raised his hand wearily and massaged the beam between his eyes. He couldn't help recalling the scenes from many years ago.

[——Pude, promise me... Promise me, don't resent Your Majesty, this is indeed our big mistake and deserved retribution...]

[However, the child is innocent! I beg you, don't leave, you are the only sublime among us, lead the children to take root in the southern border...]

【Only you, this is something only you can do... 】

The woman who was so old that she could only be sick in bed, with a fragile tone that had never been shown to him, made a request that might be the only time in her life.

He couldn't refuse, and he didn't want to.

He couldn't wait to show her his ability - the possibility of proving that he was not inferior to anyone, and could even be better than other white people.

"It's been decades, mother..."

Opening his eyes, staring at the mid-to-high-end showers in the dark night, this short but sturdy and dignified old man sighed, showing a rare vulnerability: "Finally, I have waited for an opportunity, and there is still a hope."

"A few generations have passed, and all the clansmen have begun to forget our past... Although it's a little unfair to that child, we really need it."

"There needs to be a hope of regaining glory."

At the same time, outside the window of the Elder Hall, west of Harrison Harbor.

A steep cliff derived from the south, where countless thunderstorms converge, is called the place of the Takutan Cliff by all the locals.

A tall, gray-haired man like an iron tower stood on the edge of the cliff.

He stepped on a huge rock, staring solemnly into the depths of the ocean beyond.
