I Am Actually the Old Patriarch of the Xiao Family

What's more, they often have to cross mountains and ridges. In order not to attract attention, they have to walk [-] to [-]% of the way. Even Iron Man will feel tired at this time.

"If you feel tired, we will rest here today,"

Xiao Li drew a cross on the place marked Xiaoyecheng on the map, indicating that he had already been to this place.

"This city seems to be prosperous and stable, and it should be more lively."

Since Xiao Li chose to give in, Liu Jin would naturally not be troublesome. The two of them pretended to be ordinary visitors and entered the city, and found that the order was indeed in order.

"It's really strange. We've never seen any cities along the way. Like this place, the people here don't seem to be wary of others?"

Xiao Li listened to the muttering in his ears, and paid special attention to what Liu Jin said, and he found some abnormalities.

This place is not at all like a city on the Dou Qi Continent, not to mention other places, but the Northwest Continent, Xiao Li can be regarded as someone who has visited half of the Northwest Continent, the cities he has experienced, killing people anywhere is not cared about, But there is such an order in this place.

And listening to what the people around him said, it seems that the city lord here is not weak.

"Don't inquire about it first, let's find an inn to live in first, and then talk about it."

Although he is not very old, Xiao Li can be regarded as an old man who knows where to find the most complete news.

They found one of the largest inns in the city to live in, and after a few gold coins, they found out everything about the situation from the clerk in the inn.

This situation in Xiaoyecheng is mainly because the city owner here is quite special. This person was born in a big family of the Mulan Empire, and he also studied in the Mulan Valley. His identity and background are all good. After he came here, A series of rules have been formulated, and these rules have been implemented one by one with the help of the family power behind them. This is the scene where even the strong dare not make trouble here.

It's just that these stable situations are only limited to the surroundings of Xiaoye City. After all, this is only a small city. There are no strong people, and naturally no one will dare to challenge his authority. In stronger cities, such The approach will not work.

People in big families always like to kill others, especially those dudes, it is impossible to follow the so-called order.

After listening to these situations, Xiao Li stared at the scene outside from the window and fell into deep thought.

After a long time, he turned his head and said something to Liu Jin,

"I seem to understand what grandpa made me think."

belated september summary

October is already halfway through, yet I've just started writing a summary of last month.

The reason is also relatively simple. The manuscript fee was paid just yesterday. As I said before, the subscription and data are very poor, and it is all-round. I did not expect the overall collapse of the book because of the original plot, but I can understand it.

After all, readers vote with their feet, and I took a look at the evaluation of free channels, and it was really horrible.

The evaluation is relatively extreme, but others are extreme with income increase, and I am extreme with income crazy decrease.

The free side dropped by about [-]% to [-]%. If free and paid can still be equally divided, then now one has already entered winter and the other is still struggling in the tail of autumn.

Counting, I am also a person who has written several million words, and it is really my problem that there will be such a level of collapse.

Due to some personal reasons, there are not as many updates as before, and the decline in income is actually the reason why I raised the average subscription. However, the average subscription did not increase, but dropped sharply.

Now order [-] on average, and add [-] in real time...

In order to earn more money to support the family (after all, I can’t say much for this kind of work, and I’m still at the threshold when my peers earn [-] to [-] a month), I should make some efforts. What's more, I don't expect everyone to watch and pay, but no matter which channel, [-] words a day, I still hope that everyone can read it continuously.

Now I have about a few chapters and a dozen chapters for a small plot, which doesn't take up much time and doesn't cost a lot of money.

Don't call me begging, although I don't deny it, but if it's not for living, who wouldn't want to live a decent life?

Who would write it if they had the money?

I hope this book can still be saved, or big data can give me a recommendation or something. I will write it first to see if I can survive this winter.

Sincerely,

salute.

456 The Royal Family in Action ([-])

Hall of Longevity.

A middle-aged man stood tremblingly not far from Xiao Lin's head. It wasn't that he was timid, but that Xiao Lin was too powerful as a fighter. Every time you see him, you will feel an inexplicable pressure.

Among all the people, Xiao He is considered good. Although his strength is weak, he still has brains.

Originally, he thought that if he was an ordinary person in this life, it would be over after he reached the Spirit Fighting Realm, and he might exhaust his whole life's effort, and he would have no chance to reach another level.

For this, he was still unwilling.

But now.

This good opportunity fell in front of him, and he became nervous instead.

"Your plan is really not good. I remember that when the empire was first established, I praised your steward's talent. Why did you go back now?"

"Reporting to the patriarch, it's really my nephew's lack of ability. For the past few days, my nephew has been beating drums in my heart, fearing that I won't be able to do well in supervising the country. It's better for the patriarch to find another person who can be used."

Facing Xiao Lin's accusation, Xiao He couldn't say anything, after all, he did all these things by himself, and it was a fact that he failed to do well with such a big burden on his hands.

At this moment, besides resigning, he really had nothing else to say.

This work is too tiring, compared with the previous leisurely life, it really makes people unhappy.

Xiao Lin pinched his eyebrows.

He originally thought that people like the Xiao family, who focus on cultivation and enjoy life, enjoy life, even those with low talents can enjoy his shade, but now it seems that the theory of only talent is indeed hurtful. Many people arrived.

If it were Xiao Ding here, these words would naturally not be said, because although Xiao Ding's child was not talented, he was also taught self-confidence when he was raised by him since childhood, but Xiao He was different. He is about the same age as Xiao Zhan, even a little younger than Xiao Zhan, but this old-fashioned appearance is even stronger than the elders in the clan who are of the same generation as Xiao Lin.

It was also because what he did was wrong at the beginning, so he should throw all these people out and let them make a living outside, so maybe they can have some ambition.

"I don't want to hear such words from your mouth again, take them back to me."

Xiao Lin's plain words almost pushed Xiao He to his knees on the ground. Fortunately, he remembered Xiao Zhan's warning before he came, and it was not the first time he saw Xiao Lin these two days, and he had already exercised a little courage. Otherwise, with Xiao Lin's power in the family, this sentence alone would be enough to scare an ordinary clansman out of his wits.

"No one is born to do these things. If it's not useful to keep you, this seat can let you go with the flow like the rest of the family, and reprimand you for what?"

Xiao Lin took out a few copies of Xiao Ding's previous plans from the side, put them together with the one Xiao He took over, and threw them back together.

"Go back and take a good look at these things. If there is anything you don't understand, go to Xiao Zhan and ask him. When you go back, tell him not to give you any bad ideas, otherwise he will be here next time."

Even though he said so, Xiao He breathed a sigh of relief, took his things and hurried away.

"Why do you have to speak so harshly? Food always needs to be eaten bite by bite, and people have to be taught bit by bit, right?"

Medusa walked slowly from behind carrying a box, and took out a bowl of porridge and some side dishes from the box.

"I specially ordered people to do it, all of which are bland. Go get rid of your anger."

"It's not that I want to speak harshly to them, it's that their spirits have been worn down all these years, especially Xiao Zhan, who brought these brothers with him without seeking to make progress,

If it wasn't for Xiao Ding's child who really couldn't get away now, and things were rushed to the same place, what else would I use them for? "

"There's nothing you can do about it. It's good to have someone who can be used in the family, but you just need to teach a few words, and you don't need to do anything. Besides, do you really want to be the shopkeeper?"

Xiao Lin talked to Medusa while drinking the porridge to calm down his mind.

"I'm supposed to be the hands-off shopkeeper. These things should be done by them, but Xiao Zhan himself doesn't want to come out. Even if I scold him like this, it's useless. His wife is quite capable, but when it comes to this kind of thing It's not enough, if I can be like you, I can leave this matter to Bai Yao."

Anyway, it's just supervising the country, who is not?

Even if Bai Yao, the queen mother, is allowed to go out to listen to the government behind the curtain, Xiao Lin has no objection, as long as she has the ability.

It's a pity that this talent is the same as a book, it's only when you use it that you don't feel enough. Usually Xiao Ding handles these things properly, and he has already raised these people in the family together with Xiao Lin.

The people of the Xiao family, except for those seedlings who practiced, there were not many left. Most of the capable ones were sent by Xiao Lin to various places to manage government affairs. The exception is Xiao He. Back then, Xiao Lin left him because he liked his talent, but he didn't expect that Xiao Zhan would make him feel a little out of sorts in the past two years.

This bastard son knows how to make trouble for his father, Xiao Lin is angry when he thinks about it.

Fortunately, reprimands are useful after all, Xiao Zhan has behaved a lot in the past two days, and finally he is not as troublesome as before.

"Speaking of which, isn't this also your fault? I've heard Bai Yao say that when you faked your death back then, you obviously trained yourself, but not long after, you took over the family affairs again, and now he's returned to Normal life trajectory, of course I don’t want to come out again.”

What Medusa said was also true, Xiao Lin naturally had no way to refute it.

Who made him soft-hearted and choose the wrong path?

After all, Xiao Zhan at that time, who had been the young master for so many years, was really pitiful once he fell down.

At that time, he was just a spectator mentality, and he still retained sympathy for the characters in his heart, and he was not fully integrated into it like he is now.

Thinking about it now, what a person goes through is actually predetermined. If he hastily changed his life trajectory, he would naturally change his personality and other things.

However, the world is as impermanent as the north wind, who would have thought that there would be such a scene today.

"However, this is also an opportunity. It is also a good thing for these idlers in the royal family to move together."

Xiao Lin put down the chopsticks in his hand, and summoned the shadow guards from the Palace of Eternal Life.

"Pass down the oral order of this seat, and ask all the elders and elders in the clan to come to the Hall of Eternal Life after sunset."

457 The Yaochen of the Past Is Dead

Zhongzhou.

Star Meteor Pavilion.

In fact, it was the first time for Xiao Yan to come here. The last time he was in Zhongzhou, he basically didn't stop, and passed by with just a few clicks. Now that he came to this place, he had the opportunity to take a good look at one of the so-called Sifang Pavilions.

The place is indeed good, but it must be a lot worse than Tianmen Secret Realm, but after all, it is Venerable Wind's territory, and he didn't show it too obviously.

In contrast, Zi Yan was not so polite, although she didn't say anything, but the expression of superiority was very clear.

Xiao Yan could clearly feel that Mu Qingluan's mood had become bad, but theoretically speaking, she didn't dare to do anything.

The blood pressure is too strong...

There is no way to solve this kind of problem, so even if Mu Qingluan is upset, he has no other choice.

And Zi Yan's discomfort is not just aimed at Mu Qingluan, she is mainly aimed at Yao Chen. Of course, she doesn't know Yao Chen. Now the handsome middle-aged man standing in front of her is a Xiao Yan called his grandfather "Xiao Tianhuang".

After all, Yaochen, who was famous in Zhongzhou, is now dead.

And Xiao Tianhuang is a person with an aura that Zi Yan hates, but she still can't explain the source of this aura.

It's just a natural confrontation in the blood.
