Chapter 2 Drag It Away and Burn It
"Not bad, Xun'er, but you're still a little behind us!"
Xiao Yuan said with a smile.
"You are my elder brothers, so it's normal for you to be better than me!"
Xiao Xun'er smiled slightly and said with a girl's unique coquettish tone.
"Okay, okay, but your two elder brothers are now relying on you for protection, you have to work harder! Strive to become a fighter tomorrow and a master the day after tomorrow!"
Xiao Yuan continued to tease.
Xiao Yan, who was standing by, felt a little embarrassed when he heard this, because he didn't want to rely on a girl to protect him.
"Ah? It's a bit difficult!"
Xiao Xun'er looked embarrassed when she heard this.
"Haha, I won't tease you anymore. You two go back first. I still have to go back to the market to deal with some things. My father said that there will be guests visiting tomorrow, but when I asked him what was going on, he was mysterious and refused to tell me in detail."
Xiao Yuan smiled, explained, patted Xiao Yan's shoulder, blinked at Xun'er, and then turned and left.
Looking at Xiao Yuan's departing back, Xiao Xun'er was thoughtful, but smiled and said, "Let's go, Brother Xiao Yan!"
"Well, Xun'er, was I a little too impulsive just now?"
Xiao Yan took a step forward and asked carefully while walking side by side with the girl.
"Yes, too impulsive!"
Seeing the girl nodded seriously, Xiao Yan's heart sank.
"But it's also attractive! Xun'er believes that Brother Xiao Yan will return to the top. When the time comes, if anyone says bad things about Brother Yuan again, we will tear their mouths apart together!"
Xiao Xun'er raised her pink fist and acted viciously.
"Girl, don't always learn to swear like me and Brother San! But I still want to thank you for always believing in me for the past three years!"
Xiao Yan looked at the girl's innocent appearance, shook his head with a smile, and then restrained his expression and said seriously.
"Hehehe!"
Xiao Xun'er showed a proud look when she heard it, tilted her little head, and felt extremely happy because of this thank you.
On the second floor of a shop with the word "Xiao" hanging on it deep in the Xiao family market, Xiao Yuan, who had just returned here and sat down to deal with things, heard a knock on the door.
"Third Young Master!"
"Come in!"
After Xiao Yuan's voice fell, the door was pushed open, and a strong man in the uniform of the Xiao family pushed open the door and walked in respectfully.
He looked about thirty years old, with a badge on his chest with six gold stars, which meant he was a six-star fighter.
"Uncle Payne, what happened in the market?"
Hearing Xiao Yuan's question, the man smiled and said respectfully: "Third Master, when the brothers were changing shifts, they caught someone and said that he had been disrespectful to the Third Master and the Young Master."
"Ah?"
Xiao Yuan was stunned for a moment, it couldn't be such a coincidence, right?
"Bring the person up!"
Seeing the doubt in Xiao Yuan's eyes, Payne shouted out the door.
The next moment, two guards of the Xiao family came in with a guy with tied hands and feet and swollen nose and eyes, and kicked him in the knee, making him kneel on the ground.
"Third Master, we brothers just changed shifts at this time. We wanted to come to the market together after you finished the test, but when we heard this guy was rude to you, we tied him up!"
One of the guards bowed respectfully and reported.
The other grabbed the kneeling man's hair and pulled it back, revealing his face.
Xiao Yuan looked at him for a long time before he saw a hint of familiarity from his severely deformed face with a smelly sock stuffed in his mouth. It was indeed the man scolded by his own brother!
"Why did you tie him up? Am I that kind of stingy person?"
Xiao Yuan shook his head helplessly and sighed.
"That's because you, the Third Young Master, are broad-minded and don't argue with him, but we have just interrogated him. This kid has stolen things in our market before! If it weren't for the fact that the young master didn't want to cut off their lives and turned a blind eye, how could the golden fingers in this market survive!
This kind of beast who eats and scolds his mother is the most unbearable for the brothers! What's more, you are kind to the brothers. If he dares to scold you, it is a slap in the face of the brothers!"
Payne stepped forward and said indignantly.
Thanks to Xiao Yuan, although this market is only a mid-level market, the monthly salary of their guard team can be comparable to that of a high-level market.
In addition, these people are all confidants appointed by Xiao Yuan's father Xiao Zhan, so even though Xiao Yuan is a waste who can't practice, he is still loved by them.
"Oh, then drag him down."
Xiao Yuan looked at the angry expressions of Payne and the two guards behind him, and waved his hand casually.
"Yes!"
The two guards responded and immediately dragged the idiot kneeling on the ground down like dragging a dead dog.
"Master, how to deal with it?"
Payne asked, but his hand gestured directly on his neck.
"Stealing and scolding me are not punishable by death. I am not afraid that he will hold a grudge against me because I have you guards. However, it is inevitable that he will have some dangerous thoughts about Xiao Yan. Let's burn it."
Xiao Yuan pondered for a moment, and his tone was calm as if he was ordering something very ordinary.
"Yes, Master!"
Payne nodded and was about to leave, but suddenly slapped his head, turned back, leaned over and whispered to Xiao Yuan: "I almost forgot about Master's business. What you ordered is almost done. The things will be delivered tonight!"
"Well, I will give you some more gold coins later, so that everyone will not work in vain."
Xiao Yuan finally showed a hint of joy in his eyes after hearing this, but he still stabilized his emotions and said calmly as always.
"Well, don't worry, Master!"
Payne smiled and nodded after hearing this, and then stopped disturbing Xiao Yuan to handle affairs. He quietly retreated and closed the door.
"Huh!"
Listening to the footsteps fading away, Xiao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, and a look of joy appeared on his face.
Damn it! After fifteen years, I finally solved the problem of not being able to practice!
As Xiao Yan's brother, Xiao Yuan's soul also does not belong to this world.
To be honest, when he was three years old, Xiao Yuan was actually very desperate when he found that he could not practice like others. After all, he did not have Yao Lao to absorb Dou Qi, and he did not have a system, so he was probably really useless.
Fortunately, as a time traveler, he knew that his younger brother had the appearance of a Dou Emperor.
So, Xiao Yuan, as an older brother, began to take care of Xiao Yan. Even if he really could not practice in this life, with Xiao Yan around, his future life would not be too bad.
But at the same time, Xiao Yuan was unwilling to give up the opportunity to practice, but after trying for two and a half years, there was still no result.
Until the age of five, Xiao Yuan saw an ancient box in his father Xiao Zhan's room.
He opened it with curiosity and found two emerald green jade pieces inside. There was a light spot on each jade piece, which moved slowly, as if it had spirituality.
That is!!!
