Above The Sky (Yin Tianshen Yin) Chapter 48: Glory
"Yes, yes, Elder Mingjian!"
Brin seemed to be still having some lingering fears. He half-kneeled in front of Elder Purdue's desk, and reported: "I just walked around the outside of Oceana's house a few times, and I was still thinking about how to enter the house to observe the situation. Unexpectedly, Ian opened the window and told me to stay away."
Speaking of which, recalling the scene of being watched by the crowd, Brin still felt his face and ears getting hot.
He has a face-saving personality, and he naturally feels ashamed to be called a spy, but who told him that he was really greedy before and wanted to **** the sleeping powder from Ian's hand? And then he was approached by Elder Purdue to investigate information about Ian?
This is punishment, and it is also a crime and meritorious deed.
"Yeah."
After listening to Brin's report, Elder Purdue pondered instead, thinking: "Across the house and the street, can you be found? Out of the window, so I can find out at the first time."
"No no no!"
This time, it was Brin who argued hard: "I paid special attention to the window - you know my eyesight, I can even find the Endal moss in the bushes, Ian was never by the window before, He just found me out of thin air, and then walked straight over, reprimanded me to leave!"
"Oh?"
Elder Purdue looked at Brin with a smile that was not a smile, and after the other party lowered his head again in fear, he said slowly: "You should have guessed why I asked you to do such a thing. I thought I had offended you. Ian, you don't want to admit that Ian is a psyker."
"Elder, I'm just greedy for a while, not really stupid!" Brin half-kneeled in front of the elder's desk, and he pleaded: "If Ian is really a psyker, then what's the point if I deny it or not?" Useful? Can you deceive yourself or others? I just hope that you can help me with a few good words in the future, and I hope that Ian will not hold grudges and not revenge on me in the future."
"I also hope that you can forgive me, Elder. I am really stupid. I never thought that if I knew that Ian might be a psychic, I would never dare to have such thoughts!"
"Yeah."
The old man responded softly, but Brin, who was panting heavily, looked relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.
Elder Purdue never promises easily, but since he has already promised, he will definitely help him ease the relationship in the future.
He already thought of some herbal treasures in his home, although expensive, but compared to the possible revenge of a psyker in the future, it is considered cheap.
Speaking of it, he is really stupid. As a neighbor, how can he not know who Oxenna is? Even in a sudden outbreak, killing one or two native hunters is the limit. How could it be possible to kill four? He definitely has someone to help, and that person can definitely see through the stealth skills of the natives hidden in the dark!
Brin is an experienced herb picker. He often deals with and even fights with the natives. He is well aware of the ability of the redwood natives in the forest, so others may think nothing of it, but he can easily detect Ian. Oddities in the mouth.
And all these weirdnesses can be explained by 'Ian has awakened spiritual power'!
An eight-year-old psyker, even among the white people, this age is ridiculously young!
"You continue to observe Ian."
But when Brin was full of annoyance and fear, Elder Pud's voice sounded again: "Don't reveal it. Don't forget that everyone now knows that you tried to take Ian's sleeping powder, and even Wandering around his house, with bad intentions."
"If other people know that Ian is a psyker, how will they deal with you to please each other?"
"Cooperate with my guards to continue to observe. Since Ian has not told me now, then wait until he is willing to talk. I think that this period of time is not long given the child's intelligence. Before that, I I need someone to report Ian's actions to me to ensure his safety."
Squinting his eyes, Elder Pude stared at Brin who was already bent over, and he said lightly: "Now, step back. Brin, I hope you can remember the lesson this time, we are all family members of the same blood, If you spy on your family, there will naturally be retribution and punishment."
"When Ian is willing to disclose his identity as a psyker, I will explain all this to him. I believe that child will be willing to forgive you."
"Back off."
"Yes, elder."
Brin couldn't help trembling when he thought of what he might encounter after Ian's identity as a psyker was exposed, and he didn't dare to say anything.
He saluted deeply, wiped the sweat off his brow and left.
But after Brin staggered out of the elders' hall, Elder Purdue didn't pick up the documents and continued to process the documents.
He turned his head and looked out the window.
The night was getting dark and the rain was pouring, but the central part of Harrison Harbor was still brightly lit.
There are two sources of the Bai Zhimin in Port Harrison. One is a large Bai Zhimin family that was relegated from the imperial capital to this place in the past, and the other is the scattered collection of Bai Zhimin who wandered throughout the southern border.
There is no need to say too much about the scattered ones. Now they have been integrated and included. Now the whole of Harrison Port is a family of white people.
He Pude was just an accidental heir of a high-ranking member of that big family and a dwarf in the past. Although the main body inherited the side of the White People, it still has the characteristics of a dwarf and part of the inheritance from his father.
When that family was still brilliant, he was just an ordinary and not very popular junior.
However, in an important plan, the entire family was relegated to this remote place in southern Xinjiang by the former emperor who is now called the "black tyrant" due to a mistake, depriving the history, surname and all inheritance.
All the ascendants were executed or imprisoned in another frontier, completely losing all their heritage.
On the contrary, it was me, because the dwarf father's inheritance did not belong to the people of the white people, and instead escaped the catastrophe and was not stripped back.
By virtue of his status as a sublimator, he actually became the only authority and the only elder in southern Xinjiang after the family moved to Port Harrison.
"It's been so many years"
Withdrawing his thoughts, the old man tiredly raised his hand and massaged the bone between his eyes. He couldn't help recalling the scenes many years ago.
——Pud, promise me, promise me, don't resent Your Majesty, this is indeed our big mistake, and the retribution we deserve
However, the child is innocent! Please, don't leave, you are the only sublimator among us, lead the children to take root in southern Xinjiang
Only you, this is something only you can do
The woman, who was so old that she could only lie in bed, made a request that might be the only one she had ever made in her life in a vulnerable tone that she had never shown to him before.
He couldn't refuse, and he didn't want to refuse.
He couldn't wait to show her his ability - the possibility of proving that he was not inferior to anyone, and even better than other white people.
"Decades, mother"
Opening his eyes, staring at the high-end shower in the dark night, the short but strong and majestic old man sighed softly, showing a rare fragility: "Finally, I have waited for an opportunity and a hope."
"Several generations have passed, and all clansmen have begun to forget our past. Although it is a bit unfair to that child, we really need it."
"Need a hope of regaining glory."
At the same time, outside the window of the Elder Hall, west of Harrison Port.
A steep cliff extending to the south, where countless thunderstorms gather, is called by all the locals the location of the Tantan Cliff.
A tall, gray-haired man who looked like an iron tower stood on the edge of the cliff.
He stepped on a huge solid rock, staring solemnly at the depths of the sea far away.
