Struggle of House Boss

Chapter 20 Banquet

Back in the house, the inner disciples finally collapsed from their strenuous postures, all of them twisting their blood-stained clothes, their faces pale.

No one feels happy when they think of their lives being buried in their own hands, but recalling the scene of their parents being brutally murdered when they were children, they immediately harden their hearts and give up what little patience and weakness they have left.

"Brother, this is the dagger I dug out from the Tartar, and I give it to you." A disciple knocked on the door of Shui Jingxuan's room, and handed him an extremely precious dagger inlaid with precious stones.

Shui Jingxuan couldn't shirk it, so he had to accept it.As soon as the disciple left, people came to the door one after another, bringing all kinds of things, and someone even made bath water for him, serving him extremely thoughtfully.

Although these children come from different elders, when addressing Shui Jingxuan, they all respectfully say, "Senior brother." From this, it can be seen that Shui Jingxuan's reputation has reached an extremely high level during this experience. , regarded as the only 'leader' by the disciples of the inner sect, whose sharpness has completely overshadowed the wolf girl.

Shui Jingxuan wanted exactly this effect.If he wants to take advantage of the chaos to control the Demon Cult in the future, it is necessary for a new generation to replace the old ones, and this group of senior brothers is his main force. Therefore, whenever someone comes to his door, he treats them with courtesy and talks freely, without any hint of arrogance. Or impatient, and soon became one with the same door.

His friendly attitude won the hearts of all the brothers and sisters, and they will all be devoted to him in the future.

After fighting all night, these children were exhausted, and after getting acquainted with their seniors, they all left and went back to their rooms to rest.Shui Jingxuan sent them to the door with a smile, closed the door, and waved to A Zhuang who was full of enthusiasm and opened his mouth, "If you have anything to say, we can talk when we wake up. Let's go to sleep now."

Ah Zhuang's mouth full of admiration stopped abruptly before he could utter it, but the boss couldn't disobey him, so he could only smack his lips, climb onto the bed and close his eyes to sleep.

The feeling of killing people for the first time is not good. Although the children have tried their best to suppress the fear in their hearts, all kinds of negative emotions buried deep in their hearts will still burst out in their sleep, turning into nightmares and tormenting them in every possible way.

Therefore, when they went to the meeting hall for the banquet at noon, all of these disciples were pale, with dark circles around their eyes, and looked haggard and dying.

The elders are used to this kind of scene, so they naturally know that this negative state is normal. After a period of time, some children will survive on their own, while others will collapse because of this, and they will never be able to take up arms again for the rest of their lives.The experience is far from over, they don't need to intervene at this time, just watch quietly.

Nine inner disciples sat at a table in the meeting hall, waiting for the leader to attend.The ten head disciples were called to accompany the elders, sat around a large round table, and had a meal with the leader.

The cruelty of the last days is unimaginable to these ancients, and killing people has long been a habit, so this experience, in Shui Jingxuan's view, is completely trivial.After strenuous exercise, he slept very soundly. When he woke up, Yubai's face was radiant, without any sign of decadence. He was particularly conspicuous among the haggard disciples who looked like ghosts, and attracted the attention of the elders.

"The leader hasn't come yet, master, please have a cup of tea first." As if not aware of the elders' scrutiny, Shui Jingxuan filled a cup of tea and respectfully handed it to Elder Mu.As for the other nine elders, their respective chief disciples are waiting by their side, there is no need for him to take over as their substitute.

"Hehe, good disciple!" Elder Mu patted his beloved disciple's head, extremely satisfied with his beloved disciple's domineering performance today, and the nine elders shot at him, and he also regarded the eyes of envy and jealousy as his own. Supreme enjoyment.

"This deity is here, boy, can't you treat one more favorably than another, how about pouring a cup of tea for this deity too?" Before the person arrived, the high-pitched voice of female Ji Wushuang had already arrived.

Hearing the sound, everyone hurriedly left their seats and half-kneeled to salute.

"Get up." Ji Wushuang walked into the meeting hall accompanied by the wolf girl, and raised her hand after taking the main seat.

"Teacher, please drink tea." After everyone was seated, Shui Jingxuan walked up to them at the request of female Ji Wushuang, poured a cup of tea for each of them, and handed it to them respectfully.

"Good!" Ji Wushuang patted the top of his hair and said warmly, loving him even more in her heart.Xiaotong's personality is similar to that of his younger brother, so it pleases her no matter what she thinks.

"Little boy, come here and let me take a look." Ji Wushuang took a sip of tea slowly, and waved to Shui Jingxuan with a smile on his face.

Shui Jingxuan walked up to him as he said and stood still, raised his face to look at him, eyes as bright as cold stars looked directly at his face generously, neither dodging nor avoiding.

Ji Wushuang hooked his lips, stretched out his hand to pinch Shui Jingxuan's small and delicate jaw, turned it left and right, carefully examined his complexion, let go after a while, and said in a deep and deep voice full of joy, "Well, it seems that you are resting well! How do you feel now?"

Shui Jingxuan rubbed his reddened chin, narrowed his phoenix eyes, and said calmly, "It feels normal."

"Haha!" The female Ji Wushuang laughed sharply, clapping her hands together, "Well said! It just feels normal!"

Ji Wushuang glanced at her sister who was beaming with joy, and felt even more joyful, and couldn't help laughing in a low voice, and said, "Well, remember how you feel now, what happened last night, don't think about it when you go back, for you Useless."

"Thank you, Hierarch, for teaching, Ah Xi will remember." Shui Jingxuan cupped his hands, and obediently responded, the concern for him was very rewarding.

"Well, go back and sit down." Ji Wushuang raised his hand to let him go back to his seat, then looked around everyone and said, "Everyone has worked hard today, so I won't say much, let's start the table."

The crowd answered in unison.

Taking advantage of the time when the servants were serving the dishes, the ten elders were thinking about the special care that the leader had for the little boy just now. Many thoughts popped up at once, and they all thought at the same time: If the leader really cares about the boy, it is a good thing. It is much better to blindly favor the wolf girl, the wolf girl is really embarrassing!

The dishes are served one by one, and the table is full. There are all kinds of delicacies that cannot be eaten on weekdays.Not to mention the dazzling array of dishes, just smelling the rich aroma is already making people salivate and move their index fingers.

If it was usual, with such a feast set up in front of them, the disciples present would have been scrambling to get started, but today, the white meat, red sauce, and colorful side dishes made them feel hungry. The swelling of the sac, the feeling of nausea in the throat, and the bloody scene that had just been forcibly forgotten reappeared, lingering in front of their eyes non-stop.

"Report to the Hierarch, all the dishes are served, please use." The leading servant brought the last dish and bowed.

"Well," Ji Wushuang nodded, first held up the chopsticks to pick up the vegetables, then looked at the elders, and said, "you can eat too." When his eyes stopped on Shui Jingxuan, he smiled lightly and instructed in a warm voice, "Kids eat more A little, grow fast."

"Thank you, Master, Ah Xi knows. Master, please eat more." Shui Jingxuan replied politely, and smiled at Ji Wushuang obediently.

Ji Wushuang and his siblings were very helpful to his cuteness, and their cold and solemn brows and eyes were tinged with a little softness.

The wolf girl stole glances at the amiable Ji Wushuang, and then at the little boy. She really couldn't figure out what magical power the little boy had that could make the female leader who never pretended to be so kind to her.Compared with Xiao Tong Yi, she has a deep sense of frustration, but she can't feel any jealousy towards him.

Thinking wildly in her mind, the wolf girl poked the rice in the bowl slowly with her chopsticks, but didn't put her hands on the table.She suffered an internal injury, and she was already taking medicine, and the bloody scene last night was etched into her mind, so she really didn't have any appetite at the moment.

On the other hand, Shui Jingxuan is different.There are so many delicacies from mountains and seas, not to mention this life, even the previous life, and it has been a long time since I have eaten them.Although he behaved gracefully, he was not slow in eating, and he ate a bowl of rice in a short time. During the meal, he still took care of his master and frequently brought him vegetables.

Seeing that his disciple's appetite was so strong, Elder Mu's heart fell to the ground.good!Sleep soundly, eat well, experience this test, and the lover will pass it easily.His mood was relieved, and his appetite also came. The two shared food with each other and kept persuading each other to eat more.

Ji Wushuang glanced over coldly, his face tensed unconsciously.If there were no incidents two years ago, I must have been the one who sat and enjoyed the deep love between master and apprentice.Damn it!Xiaotong should have been my apprentice!Ji Wushuang didn't know how many times he cursed this sentence in his heart.

Forget it, there is no fate, and it is useless to worry about it.Unwilling to think to himself, he turned his head and saw the wolf girl's loss of appetite, her face darkened, and she picked up a piece of salt-baked shrimp and prepared to put it into her bowl.

Seeing the master's chopsticks stretched out, the wolf girl moved the bowl away without thinking. She has become more and more difficult to accept Ji Wushuang's closeness in recent years.

Ji Wushuang's hand holding the vegetables froze, his eyes were dark, and countless gloomy emotions surged in his eyes.

The female Ji Wushuang sneered, and said in a low voice, "You're being passionate!"

The coldness emanating from Ji Wushuang's body was even worse. The wolf girl who was closest to him shivered her shoulders, and finally moved back to her job slowly, and whispered, "Thank you, Master."

Ji Wushuang put the salt-baked shrimp into her bowl, and took a deep look at her, the ice in her eyes did not melt at all.He didn't look away expressionlessly until the wolf girl turned pale and lowered her head slightly to avoid his gaze.

The interaction between the two was brief, and no one at the table noticed the awkwardness between them.

The wolf girl held the salt-baked shrimp, and reluctantly put it into her mouth. A fishy smell entered her nostrils, and her stomach swelled violently. She put the bowl away, covered her mouth, and leaned over the table to retch non-stop.

With the wolf girl taking the lead, the brothers who had been holding back for a long time in the meeting hall also retched one after another, and the beautiful atmosphere of the meal was completely destroyed.

Ji Wushuang slammed the bamboo chopsticks on the table with a 'slap', looked at the wolf girl with a livid face, and snapped, "If you don't want to eat, go down!"

The ten elders also stopped their chopsticks, not daring to eat any more.

"Sorry, I was rude." The wolf girl stood up and bowed to apologize to everyone, then turned around and left the meeting hall.

"Who else doesn't want to eat? Get out of here!" Ji Wushuang looked at the remaining disciples.

No one dared to respond, and all the disciples sat upright and didn't move.Disobedience to the leader?Leave in public?Just a joke, they are not wolf girls who don't understand the world at all, and they don't have such a strong backing as her. If they really do this, they will have to be skinned by their master when they go back!

"Very good, since you don't want to leave, let me eat it! Don't think about leaving until you finish eating." Ji Wushuang sneered and vented his anger.

The disciples under the seat were crying inwardly, but they didn't show it on the surface. They all pretended to have a strong appetite, and ate rice in their mouths.Some of them vomited halfway, vomited in the bowl and then quickly put it into their mouths to eat. It was really miserable, and the slight dissatisfaction with the wolf girl turned into resentment in an instant.

"Why are you angry? It's a rare banquet, don't ruin it in the hands of that little hoof!" The female Ji Wushuang squinted at her younger brother, complained, and then waved to Shui Jingxuan, who was still eating happily, "Little boy, come here, wolf girl Let's go, sit next to the deity."

"Of order." Shui Jingxuan smiled and cupped his hands, carrying the bowl, walked to Ji Wushuang and sat down beside Ji Wushuang, with a generous and natural attitude, without any rejection.

After sitting down, he saw Ji Wushuang's gloomy face, and very cleverly put a piece of chicken into his bowl, and said, "Master, try this red stewed chicken nugget, it's delicious, sour and sweet, juicy and delicious, very delicious." tasty."

When the words fell, he took another place for Ji Wushuang, because the two sat sideways, and Ji Wushuang was far away from him, so he had to stand up, stretch out his short arms, pass Ji Wushuang's strong arms, and pass into her bowl.

He stretched out his hand to hold the little boy to his arm, his soft and warm body, to prevent him from falling, Ji Wushuang's gloomy complexion instantly cleared up, and the cold ice all over his body turned into a puddle of soft spring water like the sun. .In this world, there is always such a person who is willing to get close to him, to be close to him, his heart is full of swells, and he is indescribably happy.

He smiled lowly, sat down with his arms around Shui Jingxuan, stretched out his hand to pinch the tender flesh of his cheek lovingly, and said in a warm voice, "It's so delicious from what you described, it would be a pity if I didn't taste it."

After saying that, he picked up the bamboo chopsticks and continued to eat, chewing carefully on the chicken that the boy picked up for himself, and thought with satisfaction: Yes, this red stewed chicken is really well done, and it is even more delicious than the ones I have eaten before.

Tired of others avoiding me and my younger brother, it was the first time in my life that someone took the initiative to pick up food for me. The female Ji Wushuang's long and narrow eyes were slightly red. After staring at the chicken nuggets for a long time, she said with a smile, "Good boy , don’t take care of us, you eat too.”

"Hmm~ I'm eating." Shui Jingxuan replied with his cheeks stuffed with food, his appearance was very funny, causing Ji Wushuang and his brother to look up and laugh.

The banquet, which had been frozen to zero, returned to its original warmth due to Shui Jingxuan's mediation, and the ten elders secretly breathed a sigh of relief.And all the senior brothers who were frantically stuffing food and not daring to stop, finally recovered their strength at this moment, and worshiped the senior brothers in all kinds of hearts.
