Chapter 2700 Father and Son Conversation
In a room, the place where I lived before was full of green mountains and clear water.
After coming here, it was the opposite scene. Waves of sea breeze swept past, and the surging waves beat the coast.
Storms would come from time to time. If it weren't for the old man's order that he could leave the place where he was imprisoned, he would never come to such a ghost place to suffer.
Xiao Huaizhi sat on the chair. The weather changed again today. A rainstorm was about to hit. People who were active outside withdrew and waited until they avoided this storm.
In a month, at least half of the weather was stormy. In order to ensure safety, the rooms here have been specially reinforced.
"This storm has become more and more frequent recently. It appears every two or three days. We can only stay in the room. This ghost place is very stuffy."
Xiao Ze followed Xiao Huaizhi. Because of his mistakes before, Xiao Ze has become much more obedient during this period of time.
Xiao Huaizhi is Xiao Ze's father, but that's just on the surface. Xiao Huaizhi also reminded Xiao Ze not to forget his own identity.
No matter how good he is, he is just an outsider after all. The blood flowing in his bones is not the blood of the Xiao family. This is a fact he cannot change.
"The weather is pretty good. At least you can rest for a while. How are you practicing what I taught you?"
Xiao Huaizhi said. He has no children and cannot pass on his family line for his own reasons. Since he has adopted this son, he must act like a father.
"Father... Ze'er is dull and can only reach an entry level."
"Entry level? You are different from the descendants of the Xiao family. They have unique conditions. You can only practice slowly by yourself."
"Ze'er knows this in his heart and will never let his father down."
Before, Xiao Huaizhi never taught Xiao Ze these things. After returning this time, Xiao Ze felt that his father had changed a little.
Xiao Huaizhi is different from others. Deep in his heart, there is a cluster of flames that have been burning, even after more than 20 years of burial.
The flame had always been in his heart. Finally, he had waited for the opportunity. It was not necessarily his third brother who could be the head of the Xiao family. He could also sit in that position.
"Is there any news about this family? I haven't had time to pay attention to it recently."
Since Xiao Huaizhi had received the order, he had to do the things arranged by the old man carefully.
So he asked Xiao Ze to pay attention to some family matters. Xiao Ze knew something and said to Xiao Huaizhi at this moment.
"Father's family is still the same as usual, but it seems that something happened with the fifth uncle."
"Fifth brother? He must have made some mistakes, right?"
"Father's guess is right. According to the people who came back, the fifth uncle brought back two stunning twin mixed-blood beauties from the last auction. The old man has been very angry about this."
Xiao Huaixin has become the focus of the Xiao family. From time to time, he will trigger some news and refresh people's cognition.
To say that the most useless person in the Xiao family is Xiao Huaixin, even Xiao Huaizhi is convinced of this, he laughed and said.
"That's just his temper. It's strange that the old man is not angry."
"Once, when Uncle Wu was having sex with the two daughters he brought back in the yard, he happened to be caught by the old man. The old man was so angry that he chased Uncle Wu and beat him for a long time."
"Huai Xin is completely useless, but it may not be a bad thing for him to live like this."
Xiao Huaizhi sighed. It would be great if they could completely put aside their identities. There would not be so many intrigues and struggles.
It's just that people are already in it and have to do it. If you are kind, you will only die in the hands of others.
Like Xiao Huaizhi now, he is already a waste. No matter whether it is Xiao Huaili or him, whoever becomes the head of the family will not do anything to him.
"Father... I always feel that it's a bit unusual."
Xiao Ze is not a fool either. He raised questions here.
As a member of the Xiao family, Xiao Ze has seen the changes in Xiao Huaixin, from a normal person to a waste now.
Xiao Huaizhi put the teacup aside. He also knew the meaning of the adopted son's words. He said at this moment.
"You mean, your fifth uncle, the adopted son, has always been pretending?"
"Isn't it? The fifth uncle used to be very intelligent and his ability was not inferior to that of the head of the family. Now he has suddenly become like this."
"He didn't become like this suddenly. He had the best relationship with the second brother before. After the incident, Huaizhi wanted to take revenge."
The brothers had different positions. At that time, Xiao Huaizhi chose to help Xiao Huaili for his own selfishness, but ended up like this.
Xiao Ze's suspicion here is not unreasonable, but Xiao Huaixin knows one more thing, which can explain everything now.
"Your fifth uncle made a major mistake in his cultivation before. Not only was his meridians damaged, but because of this incident, his path of cultivation was cut off."
"What? Could it be..."
"His meridians were destroyed, and his cultivation would not increase, but would only decline. It is estimated that he has become a waste now."
Xiao Huaizhi said that it was precisely because of this that he and Xiao Huaili would not care about this fifth brother, let alone worry about what Xiao Huaixin would do.
What use could a person who was originally a waste have? He could only sink into depravity every day. Now he was living a very easy life. At least in the Xiao family, he didn't have to worry about anything.
"Father is right. Our most difficult opponent now is the head of the family..."
As soon as Xiao Ze finished speaking, Xiao Huaizhi poured a cup of tea on his face. Xiao Ze knew that he had said something wrong and immediately chose to shut up.
"Do you want to die? I have told you many times that you must not say such words casually. I have been keeping a low profile for more than 20 years and will not rush."
"Father, I know I was wrong. I will never say it easily next time. Please punish me."
Xiao Ze immediately knelt in front of Xiao Huaixin. Xiao Huaixin did not punish Xiao Ze. This person has been doing well recently.
He stood up and walked to Xiao Ze's side. Xiao Ze lowered his head and could only see Xiao Huaixin's feet. He was so scared that he dared not say a word.
"Come on, I'm not that strict. You've been doing well recently, but it's a pity that Xiao Huaili has already chosen his son as the next head of the family."
Xiao Huaizhi clenched his fists. Although he was here, there was an extra pair of eyes around him, and he couldn't move freely.
In order to train his son's ability and find an excuse to place his own people, the nephew was always watching his every move beside Xiao Huaizhi.
"If you count it, Xiao Qing's wedding date is approaching. It's really interesting that the Xiao family and the Jiang family are getting married again."
