Chapter 424 Secret
Xiao Yuan rolled his eyes and quickly thought of picking on the weak. He moved closer to Guo Shan and asked, "Is it true that you can't say anything at all?"

Guo Shan was very grateful to Wen Shaoyuan for bringing Master Xiao to save him. Seeing that the other party looked so eager to know, he couldn't help but hesitate.

After thinking about it, Guo Shan opened and closed his mouth several times. Looking at Xiao Yuan, he felt very anxious. He clenched his fists and kept shouting in his heart: Speak, speak quickly!
Finally, Guo Shan finally spoke, but he said something that seemed completely unrelated, "Master Xiao is very powerful."

"nonsense."

Xiaoyuan waited for a long time, but heard such a sentence. He couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Of course he knew that Master Xiao was very powerful.

However, he wanted to know how powerful Master Xiao was!

"What did Master Xiao do?"

Xiao Yuan went straight to the point, staring at Guo Shan with burning eyes.

"Master Xiao is very powerful."

Guo Shan looked serious and full of reverence.

Xiaoyuan: ...

There is no way to say this!

……

Xiao Xiao didn't care what the two children were talking about.

Seeing Xiao Yuan approaching Guo Shan with an "unfriendly" smile, Xiao Xiao knew what this kid was up to.

I couldn't help but feel a little funny.

However, Xiaoyuan was destined to return empty-handed.

Although Guo Shan appears to be soft and good-tempered, he is actually more stubborn than anyone else.

No one can force him to say what he doesn't want to say.

Otherwise, this child wouldn't have been able to keep the matter of the monster a secret until now.

Although no one believed him, that was also a very important reason.

However, if an ordinary child encountered such a thing, he would probably have a mental breakdown, right?

How could anyone be like Guo Shan, who maintained superficial calm and lived his life as usual even though he was "isolated and helpless"?

……

Being haunted by a monster is a thorn in Guo Shan's heart.

When he wanted to speak, no one believed him.

Well, now that things have come to this, the parasitic vine monster has been reduced to ashes, and he has even less reason to say anything.

Let this be his own secret.

No, Guo Shan turned his head to look at Master Xiao. This was a secret between him and Master Xiao.

Guo Shan's lips curled slightly. He felt very happy that there was someone who shared such a heavy secret with him.

It seems that this memory, which should have been obscure and dull, also has some bright colors.

……

"Okay, Xiaoyuan, there's not much time left for lunch break, let's go eat first."

"Your classmates should be hungry too."

Wen Shaoyang knew without asking that Guo Shan was definitely called out by his younger brother before he even had lunch.

……

"Oh."

Xiaoyuan is not very happy.

Guo Shan’s stubbornness left him helpless.

No matter what he asked, this kid just had a silly smile on his face, or just said "Master Xiao is amazing."

Xiaoyuan, who was naughty since childhood but well-educated and never swore, couldn't help but swear in his heart.

……

"Okay, don't embarrass Guo Shan, let's go eat."

Xiao Xiao looked at Xiao Yuan, who had a frustrated and depressed look on his face, and raised his eyebrows without surprise. He then soothingly touched the child's drooped head.

A sentence inexplicably flashed through my mind: It's not that we are too weak, but that the enemy is too cunning.

puff~
Xiao Xiao curled the corners of his mouth slightly, but tried not to let himself laugh.

If he laughed at this time, it would be a huge blow to Xiaoyuan.

……

"Ok!"

Xiao Yuan responded subconsciously, his voice loud and energetic.

Then he glanced at Master Xiao with some resentment. It was not him who made things difficult for the boy, but the boy who made things difficult for him!
He really still doesn't like this classmate very much.

Xiaoyuan curled his lips, but soon figured it out.

It doesn't matter if this kid refuses to talk. Anyway, as long as he builds a good relationship with Master Xiao, he will one day be able to see the live version of Master Xiao show his prowess.

Guo Shan followed Xiao Xiao silently.

……

After the two children finished lunch, they just caught up with the first class in the afternoon.

Xiao Xiao and others sent them to the school gate.

"Okay, let's go in and go to class."

Xiao Xiao waved his hand.

"Well, Master Xiao, goodbye."

The two children said in unison.

After that, the two of them looked at each other, and then looked at Xiao Xiao with an obedient face again.

Xiao Xiao laughed a little, "Well, goodbye."

The two children were about to turn around and walk into the school gate, but suddenly they seemed to remember something and turned back in a hurry.

To be precise, it was Guo Shan who turned around hastily, while Xiao Yuan turned around slowly and said quite redundantly and bluntly, "Ah, I forgot to say goodbye to my brother."

Wen Shaoyang's eyebrows twitched. Although the child finally remembered to say goodbye to him, why didn't he get any comfort?
……

"Sorry, I forgot."

"Goodbye big brother."

Guo Shan smiled with a bit of embarrassment and shyness.

He was so busy talking to Master Xiao that he completely forgot about the other two older brothers.

Guo Shan had never felt so rude before.

……

"Brother Xiuchuan, hey, I almost forgot to say goodbye to you."

The child felt very sorry, but he also knew that Brother Xiuchuan would not hold it against him.

Brother Xiuchuan is such a gentle person.

"It's ok."

"Dingling bell~"

A resounding bell rang from the school. Chi Xiuchuan paused and then said, "Go in quickly. The class bell has rung."

"Ah."

Xiao Yuan nodded, ran a few steps inside, then turned around and yelled to Wen Shaoyang: "And brother, goodbye."

After saying that, he quickly ran towards the school.

Wen Shaoyang didn't have time to complain about how he became "more", so he hurriedly shouted: "Don't run."

"understood."

Xiaoyuan's voice came from afar, but the running figure did not stop at all.

Guo Shan, who was following Xiaoyuan, paused for a moment, but after seeing Xiaoyuan's "indifferent" back, he quickly followed.

This class is the math class taught by the head teacher.

……

"This brat."

Wen Shaoyang was both angry and amused.

……

"Master Xiao, come on, I'll take you and Achuan back."

"I'm really sorry to bother you today, Master Xiao."

Wen Shaoyang was very grateful that Xiao Xiao was willing to agree to his brother's request and make this trip.

Moreover, he saw clearly the changes in the child named Guo Shan.

Although I didn't know what Master Xiao had done, I was confused but still felt that he was impressive.

……

"No, I'm glad I came today."

Xiao Xiao's tone was light, but there was not a trace of perfunctoriness.

The spiritual energy in Guo Shan's body is decreasing. This is related to the parasitic vine monster, and also to the natural dissipation of spiritual energy as Guo Shan grows older.

It is obvious what will happen when the day comes when there is no more spiritual energy in Guo Shan's body.

The parasitic vine monster will squeeze out every last bit of Guo Shan's blood, and then look for the next host.

And this child named Guo Shan will die in pain.
