At the foot of Huangshan Mountain, Niejia Town.

Near noon, several figures slowly walked into a small town with an ancient charm.

These people are Nie Xiaoli's mother and daughter group, accompanied by not only Xia Tian and Ning Ruirui, but Ning Ruichen also followed them with a stern face, saying that they really wanted to visit the world-famous Huangshan scenic spot.

Ning Ruirui naturally has no objection, and Nie Xiaoli thinks it's okay. In fact, speaking of it, she has the deepest friendship with Ning Ruichen, and she just met Ning Ruirui and Xia Tian.

Xia Tian was a little upset, and glanced at Ning Ruichen: "What are you doing here?"

"Brother-in-law, what you said is a bit hurtful." Ning Ruichen immediately covered his heart when he heard Xia Tian's words, "How can I say that, I am also Xiao Li's friend, and I am more familiar with Xiao Li Bar."

Xia Tian pouted: "She is my stewardess wife, how could she be more familiar with you?"

Ning Ruichen was very speechless: "No way, brother-in-law, you also want to be jealous of this?"

"If you think too much, who will be jealous of you." Xia Tian yawned lazily, then turned to Nie Xiaoli and said, "Stewardess wife, how long is it until your home arrives?"

"It's just around the corner." Nie Xiaoli pointed to the street not far from the corridor, and said with a smile, "In this small town, people with the surname Nie live."

Xia Tian asked again: "Does that idiot who called live there too?"

"Oh, this isn't it." Nie Xiaoli smiled wryly, shook his head and said, "Grandpa is the head of the Nie family, how could he live in the town. He, and those clan elders, all live in the Yunhai villa area halfway up the mountain."

Mother Nie added at this time: "The private school in that clan is also in the mountains."

"Auntie, do you mean the private school of the Nie family?" Ning Ruirui asked curiously.

"Probably." Mama Nie hesitated for a moment, and then explained: "However, it is not very accurate to say that it is a school, it is more like a ancestral hall."

Ning Ruichen was stunned for a moment: "The school and the ancestral hall are two different things, how can they be confused?" "I don't know about other places, but it is true in the Nie family." Nie Xiaoli frowned slightly, and said softly: "Actually, it is the ancestral hall. It's not accurate, it's more like a tomb. Because all the children who were picked out for private acquaintance never appeared again

. "

"No way." Hearing these words, Ning Ruichen felt a little panicked, "Those kids are surnamed Nie after all. Could it be that the elders of the Nie family will attack them?"

Xia Tian said casually: "In the eyes of some idiots, my own interests are more important than anyone or anything."

"It means that there is no humanity anymore." Ning Ruichen couldn't help complaining.

Mother Nie's eyes flickered for a moment, and then she said, "I don't want to talk about these things anymore, I'm almost home, I'll make you a meal first, to cleanse the dust." "Sister-in-law, I don't think you need to cook by yourself. "At this time, a figure suddenly came out from the street, and said with a smile on his face: "I have ordered a table of good food in the restaurant in the town, specially for friends who came from afar.

. "

Xia Tian glanced at this person casually: "Who are you?" "Oh, let me introduce myself." Asking questions, he replied with a smile: "My name is Nie Hongfei, I am Xiao Li's seventh uncle in terms of seniority, and Xiao Li's ninth brother in terms of age.

"

This Nie Hongfei is a well-rounded person, he often has a smiling face, and he is very good at dealing with people and things, so he is in charge of receiving foreigners at Nie's house.

Nie Xiaoli didn't look surprised when he saw Nie Hongfei, but asked, "Did grandpa ask you to come?"

"Yes, it is indeed the order of the Patriarch." Nie Hongfei nodded, and said with a smile: "The Patriarch said that all visitors are guests, no matter what they come, they must be entertained first, lest outsiders say that our Nie family lacks Courtesy."

"Are you polite?" Ning Ruichen was a little upset when he heard this: "This is clearly saying that we are not polite."

Ning Ruirui glared at Ning Ruichen, and then said lightly: "I won't eat the meal, thank Patriarch Nie for his kindness here."

"You guys should eat this meal." Nie Hongfei didn't move, but still had a kind smile on his face: "Otherwise, I will be punished by the head of the house, and when you leave, Xiaoli's family will have a hard time. .”

Nie Xiaoli said coldly: "Then don't eat. My own friends, my family will entertain them, so I don't need to worry about him."

"Little carp, don't be impulsive." Nie Hongfei's face changed slightly, and he reminded softly: "At the foot of Huangshan Mountain, you can't beat the Patriarch, you will only ask for trouble."

"Trouble? What's the trouble?" Xia Tian said with a smile: "The thing I'm most afraid of is trouble. Where is the old man now, I'll beat him right now."

The corner of Nie Hongfei's mouth twitched slightly, and he quickly covered it up again, smiling: "It's really a coincidence, Patriarch Nie went out last night, and said he was going to pick up another distinguished guest, and he might come back tonight or tomorrow morning."

"That old fellow must have run away." Xia Tian asked casually.

Hearing Xia Tian's words, Nie Hongfei was really ear-piercing, and couldn't help reminding: "This guest, no matter what, please respect a little bit, the Patriarch of our Nie family."

Xia Tian pouted: "I don't know him well, why should I respect him?"

"This..." Nie Hongfei had obviously never met such a courageous person in Xia Tian. When he came to Nie Town, he dared to speak so rudely to the head of the Nie family. He didn't know whether he was stunned or not afraid of death.

However, none of this has much to do with him. The task he received was to lure these people to the restaurant and treat them well. Since they don't want to go, there's nothing wrong with him.

"Since you don't plan to go to the banquet, well, I'll take my leave and not bother you." Nie Hongfei cupped his hands, turned around and was about to leave.

Nie Xiaoli suddenly asked: "Uncle Qi, I just want to ask you, where is my sister now?"

"This..." Nie Hongfei was a little hesitant, because he had heard some clues from Patriarch Nie's attitude, and he really didn't want to get involved.

"My stewardess wife is asking you something, if you know, tell me quickly." Xia Tian said impatiently: "If you don't know, get out, don't get in the way here."

Nie Hongfei finally answered: "Xiaozhi is in a villa in the middle of the mountain. I don't know which one."

"Okay, uncle Qi, you can go back." Nie Xiaoli didn't want to entangle any more, and said directly: "Also, if grandpa comes back, please inform us, some things must be settled with him."

"There is something wrong with this person." Ning Ruirui suddenly felt something when she saw the back of Nie Hongfei going away.

Xia Tian giggled: "Little long-legged girl, have you opened your eyes, and you can actually see the problem?"

"What does this have to do with the eyes of the sky." Ning Ruirui gave Xia Tian a white look, "Anyone who knows how to look at his face can tell, he must have something hidden in his heart, but he didn't say anything."

"It doesn't matter." Nie Xiaoli shook his head and sighed, "Seventh Uncle is not easy. If he hadn't been smooth and gentle in his dealings with others, I'm afraid the atmosphere in Nie's Town would be even more gloomy."

Ning Ruichen said with some emotion: "Ancient town or something, you really can't wear a filter."

"What's the problem with the ancient town? People are the problem." Xia Tian said casually.

"Well, brother-in-law, what you said is very philosophical." Ning Ruichen was stunned, and then laughed: "I will definitely continue to study with you, that...can you teach me how to cultivate immortals?"

"You?" Xia Tian glanced at Ning Ruichen contemptuously, "Cultivating immortals is not necessary, but it is still possible for you to cultivate demons."

Ning Ruichen's eyes widened: "Cultivating demons, what do you mean, brother-in-law, you, I have the potential to become a big devil?" "Yes. If you learn from him, you may become a big pervert." Ning Ruirui raised her hand and said Knocked on Ning Ruichen's head, "Let you be an ordinary athlete honestly, and my words are deaf ears, right? I always think about these things, otherwise

Just go back to Xingdao. "

"Okay, stop, don't talk about it." Ning Ruichen stretched out his hand and made a pause gesture, "Sister, I will listen to you and stop thinking about it. After visiting Huangshan, I will report to the imperial capital."

A few people turned around the street and walked for a while. Mother Nie stopped in front of a rather quiet courtyard.

The courtyard is very small, and it is clean at a glance.

The house is not high, it is about two stories high, with a small attic on top.

It can be seen that some years have passed, the wall bricks are peeling off, and the courtyard door is also decayed.

"Here it is." Nie's mother said embarrassingly: "I'm sorry, the house is too simple and neglected the guests. I wanted to book a hotel, but Xiao Li refused to let me."

Ning Ruirui smiled and said: "It's okay, this kind of house has the flavor of an ancient town, and I told Xiaoli not to spend money."

"Guests, please come in." Nie Xiaoli became a little lively, took out the key from his bag, opened the courtyard door, smiled and said to Xia Xia and the others: "The humble house is simple, I hope you don't mind."

Ning Ruichen actually had the urge to turn around and book a hotel, but he said, "I don't mind, I don't mind."

"This building has a...problem." Xia Tian stared at the house for a while, and suddenly frowned.

Ning Ruirui felt Xia Tian's emotional changes, and immediately asked: "What's wrong?"

Xia Tian asked: "Stewardess wife, who let you live here?"

"The house is passed down from the ancestors." Nie Xiaoli was a little puzzled, and asked blankly: "Is there any problem with this house?"

"There is a problem, but it's not a big problem." Xia Tian glanced at it from the corner of his eye, and he had a general idea of ​​the layout of the surrounding houses.

Ning Ruirui gave him a white look: "Speak up if you have any questions, and keep it from us, right?"

"Little long-legged girl, what are you in a hurry for?" Xia Tian said with a smile: "It's actually okay to say it, the layout of all the houses in this ancient town seems to form a formation."

Immediately, he pointed to Nie Xiaoli's house and emphasized: "This house is the eye of the formation."
