C224 The City Lord Took in a Disciple

Murong Ke frowned and looked at Xiao Baobao for a long time. He found that this child was indeed different from the others, but it seemed to be a little too different. This was definitely not a child of this age.

Murong Ke did not know whether he was happy or worried. He touched Xiao Baobao's head and suddenly slapped him. He said angrily, "Don't use your martial arts to do these dirty things. "

Xiao Baobao's eyes turned red, but he did not cry. He gritted his teeth and retorted, "This is just my idea. Could it be. . . Is a martial arts competition purely to compare who is stronger and who is weaker? I think as long as one person defeats the other, he can do whatever he wants. After all, After all, in the real world, no one will compete in practical martial arts. "

Murong Ke widened his eyes. "Who told you all this? Could it be your master? " Xiao Baobao nodded. "My master taught me. He said that anything could happen in the martial world. Therefore, we must use our brains fully. We can't just do it recklessly. "

Murong Ke let out a long breath. "In the future, forget about your past master. " After saying this, he flicked his sleeves and left. Xiao Baobao was stunned. He did not know what this meant. The follower beside him smiled and said, "Congratulations, Young Master Xiao. You have been selected by the City Lord! From now on, you will be City Lord 's direct disciple!"

Xiao Baobao was stunned on the spot, but he didn't know what to say. He kneeled down heavily and kowtowed a few times to Murong Ke.

After returning home, Xiao Baobao told Xiao Nanfeng the good news first. "Master, let me tell you this. I have officially become City Lord 's disciple. From now on, I can officially become a swordsman!"

Xiao Nanfeng was not surprised. "Oh, congratulations. " Xiao Baobao could see the disappointment in his heart. He walked up and asked softly, "What's wrong? Don't you feel happy for me? Or is it because I can't always cook for you in the future? Are you afraid of being hungry? "

Xiao Nanfeng took a bite of the pancake and said angrily," You brat, you haven't cooked yet. Look what I'm eating! " Xiao Baobao stuck out his tongue and said with a smile, "What a big lazy worm. He would rather eat the pancakes than do it himself. " After saying that, he ran to the stove.

What he did not expect was that there were already four dishes prepared in front of the stove. Each dish had meat dishes. This was simply the extravagance of the New Year. Xiao Baobao ran to Xiao Nanfeng excitedly. "This, this, this is made by you?"

Xiao Nanfeng said angrily, "If it wasn't me, could it be you? You little rascal, I knew you would succeed. Eat a good meal. If you eat too much delicacies in the future, I'm afraid you won't be able to get used to my dishes. "

Xiao Baobao ate like a child. No, he was actually just a child, but he was much stronger than ordinary children. At this moment, this strong child had tears streaming down his face. As he ate, he cried.

He seemed to be somewhat unwilling to part with everything here. The oil stained stove, the stool that was missing a leg, the tattered bed. . . There was also the sloppy Xiao Nanfeng. He seemed to be reluctant to part with all of these, but he had to walk forward. Since there was nothing here that he wanted to look for, he could only look for it from somewhere else.

And now he had already found what he wanted to become in the future, so he had to work hard for it. No matter how many things he abandoned in the past, it was worth it. As long as there was a path ahead, as long as the path was at his feet. Then he could only walk forward with no regard for his own safety.

Xiao Nanfeng used tea as wine to send Xiao Baobao off. This might be the last time they met. These days, Xiao Baobao and Xiao Nanfeng had developed a very deep relationship. If Xiao Baobao didn't go to Murong Ke's place, Xiao Nanfeng would definitely treat Xiao Baobao as his own son.

Unfortunately, many things in the world were developing in the opposite direction as he thought. Xiao Nanfeng had to let go. Only by letting go could Xiao Baobao pursue his own happiness.

However, was the path that Xiao Baobao had chosen the right way? Xiao Nanfeng had long questioned this matter, but Xiao Baobao was very stubborn. He would never believe that a person who was like a beggar was once such a great person.

In front of him. . . Murong Ke was the city lord of Gusu City, and he could control everything here. He was also the young master of the Mu Rong family, and he had learned a profound saber technique since he was young. This kind of person was Xiao Baobao's idol, and he was the one Xiao Baobao wanted to become in the future.

On the other hand, Xiao Nanfeng had nothing. Except for the Dark Gold Saber at his waist, he had the most valuable thing on him. He was afraid that it was the clothes that had a dozen holes in them.

The clothes were sewn and mended by Xiao Baobao time and time again, and they were torn again and again. However, Xiao Nanfeng did not seem to have a second set of clothes. After he took a shower, he could only bare his body and wait for the clothes to be roasted dry.

Whether it was from the future or the current situation, such a person could not be promising. Therefore, Xiao Nanfeng definitely could not be Xiao Baobao's idol. No matter how good their relationship was, Xiao Baobao would not hope to become such a person in the future.

He would never imagine what kind of person Xiao Nanfeng was in the past. His past name was probably the most shocking name in the entire Gusu in the past hundreds of years. In the entire Gusu, there was no one who didn't know about Xiao Nanfeng's existence. He was once a god. Even if he fell from the altar, he would never erase the fact that he was once a god.

After Xiao Baobao had his last bite, he ran to Murong Ke without caring about his own safety. He did not want to look back. He did not want to see Xiao Nanfeng crying. Xiao Nanfeng's heart ached for this child, because he saw his own shadow in the past from Xiao Baobao.

However, he absolutely couldn't let Xiao Baobao stay by his side, just like how he was taken in by his grandfather. If that was the case, then Xiao Baobao's life wouldn't be any different from his.

Xiao Nanfeng's life was painful. He didn't want Xiao Baobao to repeat his pain, so he would rather let Murong Ke change Xiao Baobao than let him do it himself.

Xiao Nanfeng drank another big mouthful of water. It had been a long time since he drank wine. He seemed to have forgotten the taste of the wine. At this time, he suddenly thought of Dugu Ming.

Under the moonlight, Dugu Ming was dancing in front of him. Xiao Nanfeng's tears were moist. He did not know where to find Dugu Ming. He also did not know where Little Melon went. He was like a helpless duckweed floating in the wind without any feeling of landing.

Not long after Xiao Baobao left, Xiao Nanfeng decided to make a trip to the Dugu family. There should be someone there by now. Because after the war, Ren Bushi had at least returned.

He had been hiding in the dark ever since he was injured. Now that the Devil Cult had disappeared from this place, Ren Bushi had no reason to hide. However, the Dugu family had become a run-down courtyard with only a few servants. Of course, there was also Ren Bushi. Apart from that, there was nothing else.

After the group of people from the Dugu family that Dugu Ming sent out of the city was slaughtered, none of them dared to return to the Gusu City. Because the one who killed them wasn't the devil religion, nor was it Elder Xiao, but Murong Ke!

Now that Murong Ke had become the city lord of Gusu City, he would never let them go. Therefore, they were determined not to return. However, Ren Bushi had no choice but to return. He felt that it was necessary for him to restore the glory of Dugu family.

Even if he was the only one left in Dugu family, he still wanted to keep this glory. Ren Bushi was practicing breathing exercises in the courtyard. He knew that this kind of skill would have a great impact on his internal injuries. When Xiao Nanfeng arrived, Ren Bushi had just finished his practice.

Xiao Nanfeng sneered and said: "As expected, the old fool isn't dead yet. " Ren Bushi did not even raise his head. He stretched his body and smiled. "The little bastard is not dead yet. How could the old fool dare to die first?"

Xiao Nanfeng laughed loudly and jumped down from the roof. "I really did not expect that after so many days, you are still so full of energy. " Ren Bushi stared at Xiao Nanfeng's face. After a long time, he sighed and said, "You are not as dead as the rumors said. "

Xiao Nanfeng shook his head. "I am dead. The Xiao Nanfeng in the past was indeed dead, but now Xiao Nanfeng is alive again. This is not contradictory. "

Ren Bushi frowned and punched Xiao Nanfeng on the shoulder. "It has not been long since we last saw each other, right? I don't understand a word you're saying. Oh, right. What do you want from me today?"

"It's not about anything else. I just want to ask you, has Ming Er returned yet?" Xiao Nanfeng gritted his teeth and asked. Ren Bushi was slightly stunned. " After so many years, you still haven't forgotten about her?"

Xiao Nanfeng nodded. "It's impossible to forget. If she is alive, I will live. If she dies, I won't be able to live either. " He suddenly felt a little sad. His eyes were full of helplessness.

Ren Bushi shook his head. "She has never come back. Not only did she not come back, but her brother, Dugu Xin also did not come back. I'm the only one left in Dugu family now. "

Xiao Nanfeng seemed a little sad. He felt that Ren Bushi was really pitiful. Now, he could totally leave this place and find another city-state or a market. As long as there were people there. . . A saber user like him would always be the most popular person.

Xiao Nanfeng sighed. "If that's the case, I think I should leave first. " Ren Bushi grabbed his shoulder and said, "If you don't want to drink two glasses, can you save him? This is not your style!"

Xiao Nanfeng smiled. "Stop it. " Ren Bushi's Adam's apple rolled. He immediately understood the bitterness. He did not ask why. As long as the two of them knew each other's difficulties, they would be best friends.

The two of them could be considered good friends. Their knife skills were very similar, and they were both known for their speed in the martial arts world. Their tempers and tastes were similar, and they did not want to be tied down by the formalities. Therefore, there was always an inextricable relationship between the two of them.

Recently, some young men and young girls had been lost in the Gusu City. They looked like they were in their early teens. Ever since the Gusu was taken down by Murong Ke, the situation of the missing people had been eliminated. Now, they had reappeared, and their appearance was rather strange.

Xiao Nanfeng was the first one to think of Xiao Baobao, because Xiao Baobao was also at this age. He seemed to have gone crazy. He wanted to go to Murong Ke's residence to find Xiao Baobao's whereabouts, but he stopped halfway.

He absolutely couldn't go. He absolutely couldn't let Murong Ke know that Xiao Nanfeng was still alive. The Xiao Nanfeng who was on par with Murong Ke was already dead. He absolutely couldn't be resurrected. Therefore, Xiao Nanfeng gave up on his plan to find Xiao Baobao.

When he returned home, he found that there was another person in the house. This person was searching around on the stove. He looked like a thief. Xiao Nanfeng smiled bitterly. To be able to steal from him these days, it meant that this thief was not good at it.

"There's no need to look for him anymore. Other than me, there's nothing else valuable here. " Xiao Nanfeng pretended to be deep in thought. That person suddenly stopped moving and immediately came out from the stove. This man wasn't tall, but he was good at fighting.

Xiao Nanfeng nodded. It was rare to see someone at this age have such skills. This man was Xiao Baobao. Xiao Baobao covered his face and flew towards Xiao Nanfeng. He was holding a blade that had yet to be unsheathed.

Xiao Nanfeng smiled and used two fingers to clamp onto Xiao Baobao's blade. Xiao Baobao frowned. He kicked Xiao Nanfeng's body, but it was empty.

Xiao Nanfeng had grabbed him by the waist and threw him to the ground. Xiao Baobao screamed in pain, but Xiao Nanfeng could not stop smiling. "Child, why didn't you learn kung fu in the city? Why did you come back to cause trouble?"

Xiao Baobao said helplessly, "The child with us. . . One by one, they disappeared. Master told us to go home and hide from the limelight. I thought that after learning there for a period of time, I would come and try out my martial arts. I really didn't expect that. "

Xiao Nanfeng patted the dust off Xiao Baobao's body and said with a smile. "You can learn so much in such a short period of time. It could be seen how powerful your master is. Learn well from him. In the future, you might become someone like him. "

After he said this, his face suddenly changed. It became pale and powerless. Xiao Baobao looked at Xiao Nanfeng's expression and fell into deep thought. "Don't you want me to become someone like him?"

Xiao Nanfeng shook his head in relief. "Then do you know what kind of person he is?" Xiao Baobao patted his chest and said: "Of course I know. He is my master. How can I not know? First of all, he is the Gusu City's City Lord, second of all, he is the young master of the Mu Rong family, and second of all, he is our master, a man who is invincible under the heavens! "

Xiao Nanfeng smiled and nodded. "That's right. Your master is indeed a great figure, but do you really want to be like him? If you have a choice, do you want to live an ordinary life, or do you want to be like him? "

Xiao Baobao patted his head without thinking and said: "Of course I want to be like him. Isn't living alone just to be like him? If he's still alive like you when he's in his twenties or thirties, wouldn't that be a failure?"

Xiao Baobao suddenly stopped talking. He knew he had said the wrong thing, but Xiao Nanfeng didn't care. He nodded. "That's right. As a person, you have to be someone as glorious as him. Your life won't be in vain. "
