Collapse: Herrscher at the beginning, pre-rebirth civilization

Seeing Gracie quietly drinking orange juice and eating the rice ball in front of him, Su Shixiu also calmed down and looked at this cute little guy quietly.

However, not long after such a peaceful time, it was suddenly interrupted by a voice.

"It's another beautiful and peaceful high sky...the thriving city is full of vitality that makes this world prosperous. This scene really makes me miss..."

Following the sound, Su Shixiu raised his head, only to find that on the empty seat opposite, the illusory figure of Jiuxiao from Penglai Temple was already sitting there.

At this moment, she was watching everything outside the plane through the window, her eyes full of appreciation and nostalgia.

Noticing that this was a situation that only he could see and hear, Su Shixiu didn't speak directly.

He knew that as long as his brain waves deliberately released his thoughts, he could communicate silently with Jiuxiao of Penglai Temple in the space of the stigmata, which is equivalent to conducting sound transmission.

Even if Jiu Xiao came out to breathe, this method still worked.

"Of course, Honkai hasn't destroyed the social order of this world... At least the current world still looks like civilization."

Su Shixiu yawned, but he didn't seem to care much.

"Yeah, at least the world is good now."

Penglai Temple Jiuxiao nodded, with a rare smile on his face.

"By the way...Master Jiuxiao, don't you consider coming out to get some fresh air? It's not a good thing to be stuck in the stigmata space all the time, is it?"

Jiuxiao of Penglai Temple froze for a moment, then smiled helplessly.

"You are really an unforgivable fool. If possible, I also want to see this brand new world for myself... It's just that we who were once losers have long since lost such opportunities and rights."

Su Shixiu didn't say anything, he knew that Jiuxiao of Penglai Temple didn't want to come out, no matter how much he tried to persuade him, it was useless.

Even though the two had been together for such a long time, Su Shixiu had known for a long time that Jiuxiao of Penglai Temple had the ability to leave the space of the stigmata, but if he didn't come out, there was really nothing Su Shixiu could do.

Maybe, the price of officially leaving the stigmata space should be quite high for Penglai Temple Jiuxiao, right?

In fact, Su Shixiu may not know that Jiuxiao of Penglai Temple is not unwilling to leave that space, but that she has been unable to leave.

"But that doesn't mean we don't have a chance. Lord Jiuxiao, although I am sometimes confused, isn't it because you are here? Coupled with the current ability, I actually have a certain degree of confidence in expelling Honkai. "

Penglai Temple Jiuxiao was silent for a while, then nodded.

It's a good thing to be so optimistic, but this guy Su Shixiu always makes himself optimistic in order to reassure others... Obviously he himself is not that kind of person at all.

"Yes, in the face of our power, sooner or later the whole world will tremble for us!"

After the vaguely heavy atmosphere disappeared at this moment, the master and apprentice began to chat about other things rarely.

Only this time, the main speaker became Penglai Temple Jiuxiao, and Su Shixiu turned into a loyal audience.

It was precisely because of this that, listening to the story quietly, Su Shixiu was even more convinced that Penglai Temple Jiuxiao was definitely the person who was extremely dangerous in the second timeline of the Houkai Academy.

He heard many familiar names, but the person Penglai Temple Jiuxiao mentioned the most was a girl.

Sirin!

It's not Honkai III's blowfish little tsundere Xilin. In Jiuxiao's mouth, Xilin is a very well-behaved little cutie. Her optimism and caring are just like a little angel.

Through the light in Jiu Xiao's eyes, Su Shixiu could see that the relationship between Xi Lin and Jiu Xiao was absolutely very, very good.

It's just that it's a pity that it's gone (sad).

However, Su Shixiu never thought that his lower stigmata came from the power of the previous civilization, that is, the Honkai Erxilin.

In this way, the two chatted for a long time along the way, and even Gracie had fallen asleep, and each of them was still chatting slowly on the plane.

It was almost lunch time when the plane started to land.

After experiencing the necessary tremors, Su Shixiu hugged the awakened Gracie, followed Uncle Li, got off the plane, and came to this airport full of Chinese style.

This is, Shenzhou Kyoto City, International Airport.

"Kyoto City?"

Su Shixiu was stunned for a moment, because the headquarters of the Su Clan in Shenzhou was located in the city of Modu!

"It seems that there is some major event, and the Patriarch decided to gather here!"

After listening to Uncle Li's explanation, Su Shixiu didn't ask any more questions.

After following them out of the airport, the two of them and Gracie got into a red flag car and drove towards the center surrounded by high-rise buildings, the city that still retains its ancient style.

Chapter 52 Returning home, undercurrents surge

Shenzhou, Kyoto City, the only well-preserved ancient city so far, is the site of the Su family in Shenzhou.

"Hey guy, what's going on here?"

After returning to the home here, Su Shixiu was surprised to notice that everyone in the family looked serious.

The point is that the Shenzhou Su family here are basically members of the previous generation, and there are very few people of the younger generation like him in the family in the capital city.

Back to the family until now, Su Shixiu has seen less than one or two young people of the same generation as him, and they are basically distant relatives, familiar but not named.

"Uncle Li, is it really so important to talk about the business at home?"

Although I don't know the situation, at least the old housekeeper who took care of me for a while is still by my side.

"That's right, young master. During this time, the second master has been chatting with the owner in the main house, basically all night. During this period, the Shenzhou officials have also visited several times. Anyway, it should not be a good thing."

"What's wrong with Second Uncle? Didn't do anything wrong?"

Su Shixiu thought for a while, then asked directly.

"Look at what you said, young master, we are also one of the high-level officials in Shenzhou. Maybe we don't know ourselves? The specific reason is unknown, but I guess it has something to do with the current situation in various regions and the current crisis of collapse."

"Okay. Just sounds like it might be tricky."

Su Shixiu shrugged, he was generally unwilling to take care of these miscellaneous things.

Unless it is, it really has to be taken care of.

"Yeah. The second master and the owner have been in the main house for more than ten hours. During this time, I also went to persuade them. They said that they must wait for you to come back, young master."

Hearing what the old housekeeper said, Su Shixiu couldn't help but rolled his eyes, but he was a little curious in his heart, what exactly were the grandfather and second uncle discussing.

"By the way, Uncle Li, there is something I've always wanted to ask you." Su Shixiu said suddenly.

"Young master, if you have something to say, just speak up."

"I remember you told me before that our Shenzhou Su family has a relatively long history. Is that right?"

Hearing Su Shixiu's question, the old butler, Uncle Li, was a little confused. Aren't we just talking about the second master and the Patriarch?

But, noticing that Su Shixiu blinked at him suddenly, Uncle Li understood immediately, and then nodded slightly:

"Master, you are right. Our Shenzhou Su family is indeed a family established thousands of years ago. In Shenzhou, our Su family's inheritance is relatively deep."

Although these are some unnutritive topics, which belong to the things that everyone in the Shenzhou Su family knows, the key point is that the current situation at home is also a little bit wrong.

Even if it is a family with a long history, it is inevitable that it will be involved in the messy things among the high-level officials in various regions.

……

"Young master, you and the little princess rest here for a while, and I will inform the second master and the head of the family."

"Trouble you, Uncle Li!"

Su Shixiu nodded, and didn't hurry to close the door and seal the windows until he watched Uncle Li leave with a smile on his face.

"Hmm... brother, what are you worried about?"

Gracie, who had been quiet for a long time along the way, also opened her mouth to speak after seeing that only familiar people were left in this strange environment.

Su Shixiu was silent for a moment, then suddenly showed a gentle smile.

It is impossible for him to directly say that the current turmoil among the world's high-level officials has already involved this family with a long history, right?

Before crossing over, Su Shixiu still had some understanding of the inconsistency and filth of the high-level parts of the former civilization.

But I never thought that the situation would be so serious. The fifth major collapse has not yet erupted, and the Chinese officials who have already begun to force it have to wait for it.

"It's nothing, it's just some brother's family. Gracie, do you want to draw?"

"Huahua, uh... good!"

After getting the consent, Su Shixiu immediately found the drawing board, brushes and paints that he asked Uncle Li to prepare by the way, and handed them to Gracie.

After comforting the little guy, Su Shixiu couldn't help walking to the window, looking out the window silently, feeling a burst of emotion in his heart.

"I don't know, what is the current state of the construction of Tianzhu City? One of the key bases of human beings has been built ahead of schedule, which is actually very important for the future. Fortunately, the Chinese officials believe me."

Thinking about the things he had forgotten during this period, Su Shixiu couldn't help sighing.

"After all, people from China don't lie to people from China. How could fellow villagers lie to fellow villagers?"

Speaking of fellow villagers, Su Shixiu suddenly remembered that after he left the family, he met one of the few fellow villagers who could be called friends.

One is Ahua, the fire moth, who is an extremely crucial existence in the trajectory of history.

And the other is Su, the future executor of the "Hengsha Project", who is also an indispensable key figure in history.

"Pre-civilized people have no surnames, except for a few families with a long history... Actually, if it weren't for this, I'm afraid I would have discovered where this world is, and I wouldn't have waited until high school to have this guess."

Most of the time, Su Shixiu likes to think about things by himself, and most of the time, Gracie also likes to draw quietly by himself.

In some ways, both of them are people who like to be quiet, and in this respect, their souls will naturally attract each other more.

That's why Gracie likes brother Su Shixiu very much, and Su Shixiu also likes the child Gracie so much.

After all, this doesn't involve any criminal thoughts, it's just pure liking.

Just like Alicia, who has always loved everyone around her with sincerity, there is an indestructible friendship between the grown-up youth and the immature girl.

This is the indestructible bond between "Apocalypse" and "Stars".

……

After waiting for a while, Uncle Li came back, and he told Su Shixiu that his grandfather and second uncle had only called him.

Uncle Li was their trusted confidant, and it was not uncommon for Uncle Li to know that something was wrong as soon as Su Shixiu returned to the family.

After comforting little Greixiu a few words, Su Shixiu asked Uncle Li to take care of Greixiu first, and he would go back by himself.

The situation in the family is quite chaotic, not to mention bringing a helpless little girl with him, and Su Shixiu is not very relieved to hand it over to others.

Although Gracie said that Uncle Li was terrible, it did bring a big blow to them.

But it is undeniable that Uncle Li loves Gracie very much. After all, no one can resist a cute child.

Seeing little Gracie, Uncle Li can always think of the time when he took care of little Su Shixiu.

And Su Shixiu didn't stay too long, and immediately went to the main house of the Su family's Kyoto clan in Shenzhou.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Grandpa! Second Uncle! It's me, Axiu!"

Soon, the door of the main house was opened, Su Shixiu punched the second uncle who opened the door, and hurried into the house, and then Su Shixiu's second uncle closed the door immediately.

"Of course, a gate like this usually has a password. Fortunately, after such a long time, Su Shixiu still remembers what the password is, it is nothing more than nine numbers: [-], It hasn't changed so far."

Chapter 53 Files, Incoming Wind Hazard

"Grandpa, second uncle!"

After formally seeing his two elders, Su Shixiu stretched out his hands, folded his palms together, and bowed respectfully to them.

And Su Shixiu's second uncle was standing behind his grandfather Su Guozhi at the moment, and his face also showed the respect of the younger generation for the elders.

Su Guozhi nodded, "Okay, get up."

A family with a certain history naturally has some family etiquette. Although it has been weakened and simplified with the passage of time, etiquette is more about expressing one's heart.

Su Shixiu withdrew his hands, straightened his body, and then, under the authorization of Su Guozhi, sat down at the table in front of him, facing Su Guozhi who was sitting in the main seat.

"Cang Yuan, sit with me."

After receiving Su Guozhi's instruction, the second uncle nodded and sat on the right side in front of Su Shixiu.

"Let me think about it, Axiu, I remember when you just left the family, you were still in junior high school, and you were only so young. But in the blink of an eye, you are already so big!"

"Don't dare, it's all about honoring the glory of grandpa and ancestors."

Su Shixiu shook his head with a rather respectful attitude.
