Chapter 494 Since it has been raining, you should hold an umbrella for others
Squeak——
The slightly worn wooden door made a harsh sound.
Qi Ziyou pushed open the door and entered.
The first thing that comes into view is an open space covered with dead leaves.
The surrounding walls have not been repaired for who knows how long, and there are signs of dilapidation everywhere.
All of this looks lifeless.
Seeing this scene in front of him, Qi Ziyou felt a sore nose for the first time.
I think back then, his brother Qi Wuqu was once famous among the younger generation in Baiyang City.
It is the apple of his father's eye.
Food, drink, clothing, and shelter, which one is not the best?
But now, I live in such a desolate and dilapidated house.
Comparing the two looks bleak.
This also made Qi Ziyou once again feel endless anger towards the person he had never met but whom he hated deeply.
"Elder Xu, are you here?"
A weak voice came from the room on the side.
Hearing this voice, Qi Ziyou's eyes moved slightly, and tears almost burst out of his eyes.
Xu Yanlan on the side sighed and said towards the room:
"It's me...but I also brought your brother here. Come out and meet him."
The voices in the room suddenly fell silent.
A long time passed.
The wooden door of the house was slowly opened.
A young man sitting in a wooden wheelchair with a haggard face that looked like he was in his thirties struggled to turn the wheelchair with both hands and push himself out.
Seeing Qi Ziyou, the young man moved his lips, but in the end he didn't say a word.
However, Qi Ziyou could no longer hold back. He completely shed his aloofness in front of others and threw himself into the young man's arms.
"elder brother--!!"
The young man was stunned, and then his eyes became slightly moist, and he hugged his younger brother.
Seeing this scene, Xu Yanlan sighed and took Ye Qingchen to avoid it a little.
At this time, the best way is to leave space for the two brothers to be alone and vent their emotions.
But Qi Ziyou is not the kind of child who is spoiled after all.
After crying for a while, she wiped away her tears and stood behind the young man's wheelchair, looking at him firmly and never leaving for a moment.
"Are you Xiaoyou's friends?"
The young man, Qi Ziyou's brother, Qi Wuqu said with a smile.
"Yes, we are all friends of Brother Ziyou."
Ye Qingchen and Ning Fengjing both nodded and smiled.
"That's great... I thought that with Xiaoyou's character, he would never be able to make friends in his life."
Upon hearing this answer, Qi Wuqu's face showed a smile from the bottom of his heart.
"Brother, please stop saying a few words..."
Qi Ziyou was slightly embarrassed.
"Okay, I won't say anything anymore."
Qi Wuqu nodded warmly, and then said with a slightly apologetic tone:
"I'm really sorry that this is the first time we meet and you see me like this."
"Besides, my place here is small and I really can't come up with anything that can entertain you."
"But since you came from Baiyang City, you must be a little tired physically."
"I'll make something for you to fill your stomachs. If you don't think it tastes good, please forgive me."
"How is that possible?" Ye Qingchen said with a smile: "How could we not find the food made by Brother Wu Qu delicious?"
"On the contrary, we have to thank Brother Wuqu for being able to fill our stomachs immediately."
Hearing this, Qi Wuqu smiled gently, then reached out and patted Qi Ziyou's hand on the handle of the wheelchair: "Xiaoyou, push me into the house."
Qi Ziyou nodded without saying a word, but carefully pushed Qi Wuqu into the house again.
It can be seen that he did not dare to let Qi Wuqu have any surprise at all, for fear that he would bump into him somewhere.
After they entered the room, Ning Fengjing sighed in a low voice: "I have heard before that Qi Ziyou has a very good relationship with his brother."
"Now that I look at it, I feel that it is far more emotional than I imagined."
Ye Qingchen chuckled lightly, and then his brows sank slightly: "But I just noticed that Brother Wu Qu didn't have any aura of true energy on his body... In other words, Brother Wu Qu not only had his legs broken, but his cultivation was also abolished?!
"
He turned to look at Xu Yanlan.
Xu Yanlan was a little surprised by his keen perception. She nodded slightly and said:
"That's true... the person who destroyed his cultivation is also a well-known genius among the inner sect of Tianhe Sect."
"In addition, Tianhe Sect has always stipulated that disputes between disciples should be resolved by the disciples themselves... except for killing each other."
"So, even if his cultivation is abolished, his master in the inner sect cannot stand up for him."
Xu Yanlan said: "This is also the reason why Qi Family Master and others put their hope in you."
Ye Qingchen: "..."
For a moment, he felt a heavy pressure on his shoulders.
But he didn't think it was a problem.
Because what Qi Wuqu experienced was the same pain he had experienced before!
If you have been caught in the rain, you must know how to hold an umbrella for others.
"I see."
Ye Qingchen nodded gently:
"I will practice hard and help Brother Wu Qu avenge his murder as soon as possible."
His tone sounded very calm, but you could vaguely hear the firmness hidden in it.
Xu Yanlan couldn't help but take another look at him.
Soon, Qi Wuqu greeted them in the house and asked them to come in for dinner.
Qi Wuqu's cooking skills are surprisingly good.
Although it was just a few simple meals, Ye Qingchen and Ning Fengjing ate them happily.
"Elder Xu, won't you come to eat?"
Seeing Xu Yanlan standing at the door, quietly looking at the sky outside the door, Ye Qingchen couldn't help but ask.
"I don't need to eat."
Xu Yanlan shook her head and explained: "When you reach the level of ascending to heaven, you can not rely on eating to maintain your life, but instead absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth to maintain your life."
"That's different."
Ye Qingchen shook his head and said: "You can maintain your life without eating, but what you lose is the delicious food that dances on your taste buds."
"What's more, this is a meal cooked by Brother Wu Qu himself. Elder Xu, are you sure you don't want to take a few bites?"
Hearing this, Xu Yanlan glanced at Qi Wuqu.
I found that there was indeed expectation in his eyes.
So she hesitated for a while, then stretched out her white hands and took a piece of sweet potato from the slightly dilapidated wooden table.
"I'll be fine just eating this."
She was about to walk out the door subconsciously and eat the sweet potato.
But Ye Qingchen suddenly said again: "Elder Xu, why don't you just eat here."
"Anyway, when we get to the sect, Elder Xu will still have to take off the magic veil."
"Instead of letting us see Elder Xu's face until then, it's better to let us see it now."
Hearing Ye Qingchen's words, Xu Yanlan frowned slightly and subconsciously wanted to refuse.
But she suddenly felt that what Ye Qingchen said made sense.
So she just hesitated for a moment, then stretched out her left hand and took off the phantom veil on her face.
