Looking at Jiu Er who was running away, Qin Lang quietly asked Xiong Zi Chu.

"Senior, did Jiu'er's parents really go to the Outer Realm?"

"I don't know, but I think he died."

Just now, Qin Lang was suspecting that Senior Xiong had clearly awoken less than a year ago while Jiu'er was born fourteen years ago. If there was a spatial tunnel appearing fourteen years ago, then how could Senior Xiong have just awoken?

"Senior, this doesn't make sense. If they had given birth to Jiu'er more than ten years ago, how could they have died so quickly?"

"We'll have to ask the people of the Li Clan about this. Jiu Er's longevity lock isn't ordinary either. It's the Nine Heavens Glass Lock, the sacred artifact of the demons. I bet her father will be inside for the rest of his life." From the day Jiu'er was born, as long as she didn't want to die, no one would be able to kill her on this road of exile. I just remembered, don't tell her for now. "

Xiong Zizai seemed to be deep in thought as he told Qin Lang what he remembered. At the end, he even reminded Qin Lang. Qin Lang understood that this was to prevent Jiu'er from slacking off.

"Mm, I know. Senior, is it really okay for us to just hide it from her like this?"

"There's nothing bad about it. At least let her think about it, right? At the very least, this can be considered as a white lie. "

Qin Lang went silent. He had to admit that what senior Xiong said was right. Perhaps he hadn't told her in the beginning, but now that she knew about his parents' death, was there anything more cruel than this? Thus, hiding it from her for the time being was also good. It wouldn't be too late to tell her when he found a suitable time in the future.

"Senior, Qin Lang, hurry up! Why are you walking so slowly!"

Jiu Er, who was walking in front, could not wait any longer. Seeing the two of them falling behind, she couldn't help but call out. Only then did the two of them quicken their pace and catch up.

Xiong Zizai's living quarters were very simple. A small wooden house connected to a natural cave was his home. Although there weren't many pieces of furniture in the house, it was made very meticulously. One glance was enough to tell that he had made it himself.

"Take a seat, it's simple!"

Xiong Zizai let them sit down and entered the cave, ignoring them. Qin Lang and Jiu'er quietly looked at the furnishings in the room, not saying a word.

After a while, the bear came out of the cave, carrying a jar and several bunches of unknown fruits.

"Why are you all so quiet? Why are you all so restrained? There's no need to be so polite with Uncle Xiong. Try out this fruit." Bear put down the fruit in his hand and raised the jar in his other hand. "See that? "This is the fruit wine that uncle Xiong personally brewed. It's almost noon now, which one of you knows how to cook? If uncle Xiong comes out with a table full of delicacies, I'll let you have a taste?"

Looking at Xiong Zi's proud expression, the two of them looked at each other.

We didn't say we were going to drink your wine, did we? However, since Uncle Xiong had spoken, the two of them naturally had to do as he said.

"Uncle Xiong, we can cook, but we're still young, so we don't need to drink anymore." Qin Lang hesitated as he spoke.

"Sure, then let's hurry up and cook! If you don't drink this wine, don't regret it! "

Xiong Zizai patted the wine jar, looking at the two of them with a smile.

"I'll go out and help too. Uncle Xiong, you should eat the fruit first! "

Jiu'er looked at Qin Lang, who had walked out first, then greeted Uncle Xiong before following him.
