Sheng Shijing frowned and said, "Let's leave it like this for now. I still have some use for them."
Huo Yunze looked at him suspiciously: "What's the use?"
She couldn't help but look at him: "I heard that Miss Mindy from the Caroline family is very interested in the Lord of Black Stone and has tried to inquire about Ten's news from many sources. You wouldn't..."
Before Huo Yunze could finish his words, he met the man's suddenly cold gaze and couldn't help but pause.
Sheng Shijing's expression was calm, but the air pressure around him was visibly low: "It's better not to say such random guesses aloud."
Huo Yunze laughed awkwardly: "Just a joke."
Sheng Shijing raised his eyes: "You can't even joke about it."
Huo Yunze: “…”
Okay, he surrenders.
He straightened his expression and said, "So what's the reason? Is there anything I can help you with?"
You know what, it really does exist.
Sheng Shijing tapped the guardrail with his fingertips and asked after a moment's hesitation, "Your grandfather has been to the Ancient Martial Arts Realm before. If I'm not mistaken, he didn't get in through the formal means, right?"
Huo Yunze's eyes narrowed. "Ancient Martial Arts World? Are you saying that the Caroline family is also connected to the Ancient Martial Arts World?"
Sheng Shijing: "Yeah."
I won't explain any more and just wait for his answer.
Huo Yunze lowered his eyes for a long moment before replying, "You guessed correctly. Grandfather certainly didn't enter the Ancient Martial World through the formal channels."
Sheng Shijing understood and said straight to the point: "Where is the entrance? Can you draw it?"
Huo Yunze later sneaked into the ancient martial arts world several times to find out the news about his younger sister, so he really knew it.
He glanced at Sheng Shijing, hesitated for only two seconds, then went into the house and drew a map of the entrance. He handed it to Sheng Shijing and reminded him, "This gap was created by my grandfather with great effort. It's in a very remote location, so it hasn't been discovered by the ancient martial arts community until now. Be careful when you go in and out, and don't be mistaken for a thief."
Sheng Shijing said nonchalantly, "It's okay if they find out."
Oh, yes.
He is the famous Master Hengzhi in the ancient martial arts world. Even if he is discovered, it will be a bit embarrassing at most, and no one can do anything to him.
Huo Yunze reacted.
But thinking about it this way, it became even more strange: "With your status, you should be able to enter and exit the Ancient Martial Realm freely, right? Why are you bothering to find another entrance?"
This time Sheng Shijing didn't answer.
His eyes fell on Xie Xihe, his brows furrowed.
Huo Yunze: “…”
Okay, he won’t ask anymore.
He doesn't deserve to understand the world of big guys.

The marriage and the exposure of Xie Xihe's identity caused quite a stir in the Sheng, Huo and Xie families. Xie Xihe returned to Dawn Light to resume his cultivation while moving around the three families, which was unusually busy.
People from various branches of the Sheng family sent a large number of gifts.
Whether it was an apology gift or a congratulatory gift, the couple's little home was filled with them.
Xie Xihe didn't care at all and let Sheng Shijing handle it.
Sheng Shijing was also not in the mood, so he took the initiative to walk around the pile of gifts, picked out a few small things, and asked Zhu Ming to send the rest to his private vault and seal them up.
Hearing the word "private vault", Xie Xihe finally raised his head from the book: "You still have a private vault?"
Sheng Shijing raised his eyebrows: "To be precise, it's yours."
Meeting the girl's puzzled gaze, he laughed heartily and reminded her, "Among the things you gave Dad last time, there was a box containing the master keys to my private vaults."
Those ones……
Xie Xihe grasped the key point in his words, and his expression was a little subtle.
So, how much did he give?
Xie Xihe hadn't cared about it since Sheng Shijing gave it to her father, but now she felt that she had to take a good look at it when she had time.
Putting these trivial matters aside, Xie Xihe put down the book in his hand, stood up, and said, "Is everything done?"
Sheng Shijing nodded, walked up to her and held her hand: "Let's go."
Xiao Ming raised his head from the pile of his new toys and glanced at the two of them. Knowing that they were about to go out, he didn't make a fuss. He waved his little hand and lowered his head to continue fiddling with the nine-linked rings in his hand.
His round and white little fingers, like bamboo shoots, flipped a few times quickly. Before anyone could see how he moved, the jade nine-link chain was completely broken apart by him.
Xiao Ming had nothing to do, so he picked up the scattered rings and put them back together one by one.
It only takes a few seconds.
Continue to dismantle, continue to put together, dismantle again, put together again...
Sheng Shijing and Xie Xihe: "..."
Couldn't help but look at each other.
Sheng Shijing: "I remember you have a few small games on your computer, why don't you let him play those."
Xie Xihe thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, the difficulty is too low."
But I started thinking seriously in my heart.
Ever since the little guy was brought back by them, except for the few days when he and Xie Xihe set up a fortune-telling stall, he spent the rest of the time staying upstairs and downstairs, entertaining himself most of the time.
He doesn't ask to go out with them, nor does he like to play with other children of the same age. He just eats, sleeps, watches cartoons, or just sits in a daze. He doesn't need them to worry about him at all.
It is indeed worry-free, but it doesn't look like the behavior of a five or six-year-old child.
Xie Xihe had no experience in interacting with children, but he knew that this probably wouldn't work.
It's time to think about how to place the little guy.
Sheng Shijing thought so too.
Perhaps noticing the scrutiny of the two, Xiao Ming raised his head from the Nine Links again, his heart tensing for no reason: "Hmm?"
Xie Xihe came back to his senses, picked up his little baseball cap from the coffee table and put it on him, then held his little hand: "I forgot to tell you, you have to go out with us today."
Xiao Ming didn't move, his eyes showing a hint of nervousness: "Going to set up a stall?"
Xie Xihe: "...No, go to the police station."
Xiao Ming's expression changed instantly. His fair and tender face wrinkled into a ball. His round black eyes filled with tears at a speed visible to the naked eye. He threw himself on Xie Xihe and said in a muffled voice, "I won't go. I won't go to the police station. I won't go to the welfare home. Xixi, don't want me..."
Xie Xihe: “???”
After a brief moment of confusion, his expression suddenly froze.
Xie Xihe squatted down, grabbed Xiaoming's shoulders, and asked him seriously, "Where did you hear about going to the orphanage?"
Xiaoming pursed her lips, not wanting to answer.
It wasn't until Xie Xihe asked again that he hesitated and said, "Two people told me that when I went to the hospital with Grandpa Xie last time."
Xie Xihe's brows furrowed even tighter: "Go to the hospital? When did it happen? What for?"
This time, Xiao Ming did not answer.
Her little lips were tightly pursed, as if she would never speak.
Xie Xihe stared at him for a few seconds, knowing that he would not be able to get anything out of the little guy, so he simply picked him up and went straight to the 22nd floor.
Ask her dad.
