"Hmm?" The Gold Fur Lion King was dazed for a moment. Then, he slapped his thigh and said, "Why didn't I think of that? I've been thinking about how the Xiao family should deal with the situation and how to solve the problem, but it never occurred to me that the Cheng family might be the loser!"
"That's right. Cousin Mengying is so pitiful. She has no right to speak at home. Her grandpa doesn't listen to her, either. She must be in big trouble," Jin Beibei complained.
"Then, do you think the Jin family should help them?" Jin Beibei's words made the Gold Fur Lion King see the light. Therefore, he asked for her opinion.
"We can't help them. They are fighting in the Martial Master level. Grandpa, you are still too weak!" Jin Beibei said.
"Haha. Who said I'm weak?" The Gold Fur Lion King suddenly laughed. His aura spread out. It turned out that … he was in the first level of Martial Lord!
Jin Beibei was dumbfounded. She looked at her grandpa in a daze. She had never known that her grandpa was a Martial Lord. Before … he was not just a Martial Master? How did he skip the Martial Master level?
"I, your grandfather, was originally a genius of the younger generation in the sect. However, because I was injured, I could not cultivate, so my strength stagnated. Now that my injuries have been healed by Xiao Chen, I have accumulated a lot of experience. These years of accumulation were not for nothing, so naturally, I successfully broke through to the first layer of Martial General!" The Golden Fur Lion King laughed heartily: "Bei Bei, are you very surprised?"
"Gosh. Why didn't you help them before?" Jin Beibei complained. "You are so awesome. If you openly supported the Xiao family, the Cheng family would definitely not dare to act recklessly …"
"Grandpa … has his own difficulties, too!" The Gold Fur Lion King's face suddenly turned gloomy. "If the news that I'm a Martial Lord spreads out, the Jin family will have to move back to the sect. The sect does not allow a Martial Lord to wander in the secular world. After all, I'm still a disciple of the sect. It doesn't matter if I was weak before, but now that I'm strong enough, if I don't go back, it will be an excuse for other sects to attack us …"
"Ah … Is that so?" Jin Beibei was a little surprised. She had never mentioned some things about her grandfather when he was young. She only vaguely knew that her grandfather had taken root in Songning many years ago and became one of the aristocratic families.
"Yes, Bei Bei, you'll have to follow me when the time comes." The Golden Fur Lion King said, "Actually, this is something that will happen sooner or later. I am mainly afraid that you will not be able to accept it. Fallen leaves return to their roots. As I grow older, I increasingly miss the time when I was young in the sect …"
"Then, do we have to go back as well?" Jin Beibei asked curiously.
"My descendants will all be the outer sect disciples of the sect, this is the sect's rule, and also the sect's inheritance. Because I was once a core disciple, so the rules are like this, there is no need to be an outer sect disciple, as long as you train in the outer sect for three years and do not have any achievements, you can leave the sect." The Golden Fur Lion King said: "So you can come back after staying for three years."
"What do outer disciples do?" Jin Beibei asked.
"Fetch water, cook, clean, do some chores, and cultivate when you have nothing to do," Golden Fur Lion King said.
"So it's free labor? What kind of rule is this? Geez." Jin Beibei understood immediately. They were afraid that no one would be an outer sect disciple, so they forced the family members of the core disciples to work in the outer sect.
"It's not really free. There are training resources distributed every month," Golden Fur Lion King said.
"Alright, three years is fine, but you will be bored to death for the rest of your life," Jin Beibei said. "If the Cheng family takes action, grandpa, will you do it?"
"Beibei, do you want grandpa to do it?" Golden Fur Lion King asked with a smile.
"If your cousin-in-law is no match for them, you can do it. Then, let your cousin-in-law visit us on the mountain often!" Jin Beibei said.
"On the mountain?" Golden Fur Lion King paused.
"Isn't the sect on the mountain?" Jin Beibei was confused.
"No, why is it on the mountain?" Golden Fur Lion King was confused.
"I saw on TV that all the martial sects are on the mountain." Jin Beibei stuck out her tongue. "It's just that one of the school beauty's bodyguards, Zhang Naipao, went up the mountain to learn martial arts …"
"Some sects are on the mountain, but many aren't," Golden Fur Lion King said. "However, your cousin is a member of the Cheng family. You still call them cousin and cousin-in-law when dealing with your cousin-in-law. That's weird enough."
"Oh, I'm used to it. Plus, cousin Mengying is the good one. The other members of the Cheng family are the bad guys," Jin Beibei said.
"Okay, get your father and the others here. I want to call a family meeting …" Golden Fur Lion King had made his decision. Or rather, Jin Beibei made him make this decision …
In Lan City, in a newly built residential area, there was a high-rise apartment on the 15th floor. Xu Chuxia and Tian Souring, who had just moved there, lived there.
Xiao Chen had left. The two of them lived in the same residential area, and they would always think of Xiao Chen. Although the time they spent together was short, it left an indelible impression in Xu Chuxia and Tian Souring's hearts.
Thinking back on it, the three of them were quite happy. They experienced many things together.
One day, Tian Souring felt nostalgic. He looked at the room opposite him and felt his heart ache. Tears welled up in his eyes. He said subconsciously, "Chuxia, why don't we move somewhere else? The new year is coming soon … "
Xu Chuxia was stunned for a moment. Then, she agreed without hesitation. "My family's new apartment should be ready soon. It's a big, well-renovated apartment. Our rent is about to expire, so let's contact a moving company and move there!"
Tian Souring was just saying it casually. She didn't expect Xu Chuxia to agree so quickly. She was a little surprised, but seeing Xu Chuxia's disappointed expression, Jin Beibei could guess that Xu Chuxia probably wanted to leave this sad place too.
The two of them hit it off. They moved into the new house one weekend. It was already renovated, and they could move in right away.
Originally, the two of them were happily enjoying the joy of moving to a new place. However, this joy only lasted for a few days before they discovered something unusual!
Although the room was well-lit from the north to the south, the room still appeared gloomy and cold even during the day, especially when they walked out of the house and into the corridor or the elevator, a wave of coldness would hit them in the face.
In the beginning, Xu Chuxia and Tian Souring thought that it was a new house with few people living in it. It was normal for it to be quiet. However, that was not the case after that.
They realized that the elevator would sometimes move on its own for no reason. Once, when they came out of their house, they saw the elevator stopped on the 15th floor. When the elevator door opened, there was no one inside!
At first, the two of them thought that it was a prank. When they got out of the elevator, they pressed the button for another floor. However, as time went by, and the number of times it happened, it seemed a little strange.
The two of them in the elevator often didn't press the button for a specific floor, but the elevator would suddenly stop on a certain floor. When they opened the door, there was no one outside! At first, they thought that it was a child who pressed the button for the elevator outside and then left, or that someone took another elevator and left first.
However, as the number of times this happened increased, and the floor that the elevator stopped on was not a specific floor, but random. Some floors were not even occupied yet. The situation became extremely strange.
The two of them were a little scared, so they went to the property management. In the end, the property management carried out maintenance on the elevator. The result of the maintenance was that there was no problem, but the strange things kept happening!
Especially one night, the two of them wanted to go out to buy supper. The two of them had been living on their own for a long time, so they were quite brave. It was not a big deal for them to go out in the middle of the night.
At this time, the other elevator had temporarily stopped being used at night. There was only one left. The two of them called for the elevator, but it did not stop directly on the 15th floor. Instead, it stopped on the 16th floor!
This meant that someone on the 16th floor had also called for the elevator to go downstairs, so the elevator went to the 16th floor first. However, after the elevator stopped on the 16th floor for a while, it returned to the 15th floor. When the elevator door opened, it was empty!
At that time, although Xu Chuxia and Tian Souruan felt strange, they were in a hurry to go downstairs, so they did not think too much about it. However, after they entered the elevator, they felt a cold feeling in the elevator.
"Souruan, don't blow on my neck. It's so itchy …" Xu Chuxia said angrily.
"Chuxia, Sister Souruan has a cold. She's wearing a mask!" Tian Souruan said strangely.
Xu Chuxia was stunned. She suddenly turned around, but there was nothing behind her. However, she felt like someone was there!
"What's wrong? Chuxia? " Tian Souruan also sensed that something was wrong with Xu Chuxia. Seeing the fear on her face, he quickly asked, "Did something happen?"
"This elevator … seems like someone is in it!" Xu Chuxia exclaimed.
As if someone was cooperating with Xu Chuxia, two heavy breathing sounds came from the elevator …
"Chuxia, don't … don't joke around. Can you not scare people in the middle of the night? Sister Souruan is a patient. If she gets scared to death by you, it'll be over …" Although Tian Souruan was brave, he could not help but feel a chill down his spine. "Aren't there only the two of us in this elevator?"
"Creak …"
As the two of them spoke, the elevator stopped. However, it did not stop on the first floor. It stopped on the fourth floor! The elevator door slowly opened. The two of them relaxed. If there was another person coming up, they would feel more at ease.
However, when the elevator door opened, there was no one outside. It was pitch black …
"Ahhhhh!" Xu Chuxia screamed.
"Ahhhhh!" Tian Souruan also screamed.
The elevator door closed. They continued down to the first floor. When the elevator door opened, the two girls scrambled out of the elevator. They were terrified.
