Su Family Garden, XiuWu Pavilion.
"Little Miss, be careful of your step, don't trip."
The doorkeeper of XiuWu Pavilion obsequiously escorted Su Qiluo, who was holding a cat, into the hall of XiuWu Pavilion, while also not forgetting to earnestly exhort.
After all, the threshold of this XiuWu Pavilion was as high as a grown man's knee, so it was still a bit difficult for a seven or eight year old child to step over it.
Du ke, nestled in Su Qiluo's arms, squinted his eyes to survey the hall of XiuWu Pavilion.
The most striking thing in the hall was a set of crimson armored trappings.
These trappings were placed right in the center of the hall. The color was crimson, as if there was a layer of flame burning on the surface.
On both shoulders of the trappings were beast mouths holding rings, and the surface was densely covered with scales like snake scales.
On the chest of the armor, various colored metal wires were also woven into a beast head pattern, and there were floating flame patterns on the skirt armor.
The four directional guardian flags in blue, red, green and black were like a peacock's open screen, inserted behind the armor.
A crown with goose feathers inserting to the sky was placed on the neck armor.
"This is the armor of our ancestors, looks good, doesn't it!"
Su Qiluo noticed Du ke staring fixedly at the crimson armor, and immediately explained in a low voice: "My father told me that when our ancestor entered the Tao, he used to be a military general. This was the armor he wore when fighting. Later, after entering the Tao, he didn't discard this armor and kept wearing it until he established our Su family."
"Enter the Tao by martial arts?"
Of Su Qiluo's words, Du ke only took in the words "enter the Tao by martial arts".
Through these words, combined with what he had seen three days ago, this world must have supernatural powers.
Unfortunately, he could not speak human words and could not ask too much. He could only listen passively, accept information, and respond with meows.
"Little sister, you came too!"
A hearty voice came, and Du ke also saw a chubby figure holding a bag of candied fruit walking towards Su Qiluo.
"Oh, sixth brother."
Su Qiluo greeted the little fat guy, and at the same time raised Du ke's paw and shook it at the little fat guy.
"General, this is my sixth brother Su Xinkuan!"
Su Qiluo introduced the little fat guy in front of her to Du ke. Her whole attention was on her cat self, and the little fat guy Su Xinkuan didn't care.
The whole family knew that their little sister had been lovesick for a white cat in her dream, so of course she would cherish this white cat she finally got.
"Sixth brother, this is my general."
"Hmm, he looks quite cute." Su Xinkuan perfunctorily said, then handed the candied fruit in his hand to Su Qiluo, "Want some?"
"I already ate at noon, so I won't have any."
"Okay, then I'll eat it myself."
Su Xinkuan grabbed a large handful of candied fruit and put it in his mouth. At the same time, several other children entered the hall of XiuWu Pavilion.
Apparently, this martial arts class was not a one-on-one class like the morning's culture class, but rather one-to-many, with so many children, they were probably all descendants of the Su family.
"Che, the annoying brat from the Thirteen House is here too."
As soon as these children came in, Su Xinkuan clicked his tongue, and pulled Su Qiluo aside.
"Little sister, let's stay away from them, don't let the annoying brat from the Thirteen House bully you."
"Okay."
Su Qiluo nodded obediently and followed her sixth brother closer to the direction of the armor, away from one of the children who came in later.
Lying in Su Qiluo's arms, Du ke curiously observed the child from the Thirteen House that even Su Qiluo, the little ancestor of the Su family, had to avoid.
Which one was it?
It was easy to identify, the one escorted by the other children.
Of the three children who came in later, one was in the lead. He was only seven or eight years old, but his face radiated an innate sinister aura from the bones.
Thin eyebrows, long eyes, thin lips, he looked very mean.
Just as Du ke was observing this child from the Thirteen House, the other party also surveyed the entire hall of XiuWu Pavilion, eventually settling his eyes on Su Qiluo.
"Little sister, long time no see."
The child from the Thirteen House walked over to Su Qiluo with his hands behind his back, carrying a pretentious posture. He raised his chin and said lightly: "Why don't you greet your thirteenth brother when you see me?"
Su Qiluo was somewhat afraid of this so-called thirteenth brother. She shrank her head and addressed him in a low voice: "Thirteenth brother, hello."
"Hmm."
The sinister-looking kid was about to say something more when there was suddenly a light cough in the hall.
"Cough cough!!"
With just a cough, all the children looked over.
Even the child who had previously troubled Su Qiluo couldn't help but restrain his expression, lowered his head respectfully.
However, Du ke had seen everything this child had just done, and kept it in mind.
Dare to bully my little loli, I'll settle accounts with you later.
"Is everyone here?"
A pale, fur-clad young man holding a warmer walked to the doorway of XiuWu Pavilion.
As soon as he stepped into XiuWu Pavilion, Du ke looked over at this young man.
As soon as the young man entered the hall, he directly turned his head and made eye contact with Du ke. Du ke looked into those pitch-black eyes and subconsciously turned his head away, not daring to keep eye contact with this young man.
Just by looking, this young man gave him a creepy feeling.
Not to mention very uncomfortable, there was also an indescribable sense of crisis.
"Little Luo, did you find your white cat general?"
The young man walked over to Su Qiluo and rubbed Su Qiluo's head. At the same time, Su Qiluo also held Du ke high up as if showing off a treasure.
"I found him, I found him. Third uncle, don't you think my general is very handsome?"
Being held up by Su Qiluo, Du ke had ten thousand sentences in his heart but didn't know whether to say them or not. Such a dangerous person, and you still hand me over. I'm hurt by you!
Su Qiluo's third uncle Su Xiuwu stroked Du ke's head, then gently slid his soft fingers all the way down Du ke's spine.
"Your cat is truly extraordinary."
"Right, right!"
Seeing that her third uncle affirmed Du ke, Su Qiluo immediately narrowed her eyes into two crescent moons, rubbing Du ke on her cheek.
"But you have to take good care of your cat."
Su Xiuwu took out a copper ring from his arms and handed it to Su Qiluo in front of him.
"Third uncle, what is this?"
"This is a beast control ring that can restrain your cat."
"Why give me this?"
"Because your cat is an exotic spirit cat. The ancient books say, there are exotic beasts on earth, and spirit cats are the most mysterious. Your cat's original name is Chi Yu Xiao Fei Lian, and he was born with all kinds of magical abilities."
Su Xiuwu stroked Du ke's ears, but was pushed away by Du ke with his paws.
This young man gave him a bad feeling, like an unarmed man encountering a tiger in the wild, creepy.
"Now your cat is still young, but once he grows up, he will reveal all kinds of abilities."
"The most powerful of these is to conceal his own whereabouts." Su Xiuwu's eyelids lowered as he looked at Du ke in Su Qiluo's arms and said lightly: "By then, even if he is right in front of you, you won't be able to see him."
"Really?!"
Su Qiluo looked at Du ke very excitedly, suddenly realizing: "No wonder after that day, I never dreamed of the general again. Turns out the general became invisible!"
Du ke looked at Su Qiluo speechlessly. If I could become invisible, could I still be held in your arms?
Moreover, is invisibility really true?
I'll have to find a way to check Chi Yu Xiao Fei Lian later.
As for that beast control ring?
I'll find a way to carry it in my mouth and throw it into the toilet!
