That person was flying in the sky …
The crisp and melodious child's voice also carried a kind of surprise and curiosity.
But the moment this sentence sounded, it was no less than throwing a grenade in everyone's ears.
With a 'bang' sound, everyone present was shocked.
Everyone couldn't help but look back.
When they saw the little guy who suddenly made the noise, their eyes showed a bit of a blank look.
Where did this child come from?
This scene was very similar to a middle school class, when the teacher was leading everyone to recite classical Chinese.
The whole class was reading excitedly, but there was an untactful student who rushed into the classroom with a piece of bread in his mouth, directly interrupting everyone's recitation.
When everyone stopped to watch a good show, they shockingly discovered that — —
This student who was late was not in their class at all.
The students were dumbfounded.
What kind of experience would it be to be a teacher?
If Jiang Zhengqing was the teacher, then Chen Xi's family was naturally the late students.
The Jiang Clan attached great importance to the ancestral rules. Not to mention that the Qixia Peak was holding a clan meeting, even in normal times, the Ancestral Square was not a place where just anyone could come.
The man who led the way was still too young. When he saw that the atmosphere in the square was a bit strange, he froze in place and didn't know what to do.
What else could he do?
Interrupting the clan meeting caused all the elders to look back at him. Could it be that he had to brace himself and bring the outsider to the clan leader at this time?
He really didn't have the guts …
Seeing the man standing there in a daze, an old man next to him couldn't help but scold him in a low voice.
"Fengle! What are you doing! Hurry up and take him away! "
Hearing this, the man named Jiang Feng Le suddenly realized what was going on. He hurriedly bowed in the direction of Jiang Yuankui, and then tried to pull Chen Xi away in a fluster.
But how could Chen Xi be so easy to get close to?
Jiang Fengle just stretched out his hand, but it was as if he touched an air wall. No matter how hard he tried, his hand couldn't move forward an inch.
Seeing this, Jiang Fengle couldn't help but be anxious. He couldn't help but roar in a low voice, "Hey, what are you doing? Come with me and get out of here! "
Jiang Fengle was so anxious that he was sweating, but Chen Xi turned a deaf ear to this.
He raised his head and glanced at Jiang Zhengqing who was in mid-air. Then he held the little girl in one hand and Qin Ruoying in the other and slowly walked to the center of the square as if he was taking a stroll.
"I'm really sorry to have disturbed you all …"
"If I had known that you were having a meeting, I would have waited at the foot of the mountain for a while …"
"But since I'm already here, it's not like I can go back now …"
"Why don't you all take a break first and continue the discussion later?"
As they walked, Chen Xi kept nodding to the Jiang Clan members on both sides.
He seemed to be walking very slowly, but in fact, in just a few words, he had passed through the huge square and arrived at the steps outside the ancestral hall.
…
Towards this stranger who had suddenly appeared, Jiang Yuankui was also very puzzled.
He glanced at Jiang Zhengqing's expression from the corner of his eye, only to find that Jiang Zhengqing didn't seem to recognize this person either.
This was strange …
Second Great Uncle had cornered everyone and tried to force him to hand over the Udumbara Flower.
This was the most critical moment, so why would a stranger suddenly appear?
Moreover, this person seemed to have brought his wife and child with him …
What was he trying to do?
Jiang Yuankui frowned and didn't say anything.
The whole place was silent.
Even Jiang Zhengqing, who was in the sky, couldn't help but look down at Chen Xi.
Under such a situation where everyone was watching …
The little girl in Chen Xi's arms suddenly made a sound.
They saw that she was leaning on Chen Xi's shoulder and looking up at Jiang Zhengqing for a while. In the end, she couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Papa, why can he fly?"
Her voice was very soft, but it reached everyone's ears without missing a word.
"That uncle is fixing the electric pole. In fact, he has a rope hanging on his back. Because it's too far away, you can't see the rope, so you think he's flying …"
"Oh! I know! Because it's too far away, the things I see are very, very small! So small that I can't see them! "
Chen Xi smiled and pinched the tip of her nose, and then explained in a low voice.
After understanding the reason, the little girl couldn't help but grin.
However.
She had just laughed a few times when she suddenly saw the woman on the steps give her a fierce glare.
There was undisguised disgust and disgust in the woman's eyes.
The little girl, who had never been glared at like this, was a little scared on the spot.
So, the little girl suddenly shrank back into Chen Xi's arms like a frightened quail and didn't dare to show her head again.
Seeing the father and daughter whispering as if there was no one else around.
The woman on the steps couldn't bear it anymore, so she stepped forward and scolded Chen Xi harshly, "How dare you! This is the forbidden area of the Jiang Clan's ancestral temple. How can an outsider be trespassed? Why aren't you taking him away?! "
With the woman's order, many clansmen of the Jiang Clan belonging to the Commandment Hall immediately rushed out of the ancestral temple, showing that they were going to take down Chen Xi and his family.
But at this time …
Chen Xi suddenly turned his head and looked around. After confirming that Jiang Yuankui was the person with the highest status, he looked at him and asked calmly, "May I ask if you are the current Clan Leader of the Jiang Clan?"
Jiang Yuankui's face was cold and he didn't answer.
Chen Xi reached out and touched the back of the little girl's head. After letting the little girl lean on his shoulder, he said lightly, "I came uninvited today mainly to ask for an explanation from you …"
Ask for an explanation?
As soon as he said this, Jiang Yuankui reached out and stopped the crowd. He frowned and asked, "What explanation?"
"A few days ago, someone came to your island to ask for advice about the Si Ming Xuan Nu. May I ask if Clan Leader Jiang has any impression of this?"
After hearing this, Jiang Yuankui's heart suddenly thumped, and there was a subtle change in the way he looked at Chen Xi.
The person in front of him …
Could it be the legendary Mr. Chen?
So young?!
But why did he choose to come to the island today?
It was too sudden!
Jiang Yuankui was shocked and doubtful. He really couldn't figure out Chen Xi's identity, but he still pretended to be calm and didn't show any abnormalities.
After sneaking a glance at Jiang Zhengqing in the sky, Jiang Yuankui suddenly had some thoughts in his mind.
So, after a light cough, he looked at Chen Xi and said in a low voice, "There is indeed such a thing. I'm very sorry that I can't answer his questions …"
"But you have to understand that the Jiang Clan only accepted outsiders out of friendship, and definitely not out of duty …"
"If you blame me because of this, isn't it a bit unreasonable?"
Jiang Yuankui put on a righteous look. It seemed that he really wanted to reason with Chen Xi.
However, after hearing this, Chen Xi couldn't help but laugh. He then replied coldly, "Whether I help you or not, I naturally won't blame you because of this."
"But do you know …"
"That person is my father-in-law?"
Hearing this, even with Jiang Yuankui's shrewdness, he couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly.
It's really him!
After confirming Chen Xi's identity, Jiang Yuankui was suddenly happy and almost laughed out loud.
There was an old saying, "It's better to come at the right time than to come early."
He didn't think that such a good thing would actually happen to him.
There would be a good show to watch in a while …
Jiang Yuankui resisted the urge to laugh in his heart. He was like an old fox that had become a spirit, standing on the stairs, only his tail was not exposed.
Chen Xi felt that something was wrong with him, but didn't think too much about it. So, he continued to say, "Mr. Father-in-law came here from Shang Jing with a heart full of sincerity, just to ask the Jiang Clan to answer his questions …"
"But not only did you not help, you even hurt him …"
"Then why don't you tell me …"
