Except for me, all my enemies have been reborn.

Shang Shixu was playing with them in the outer courtyard, while his aunt went back to the house to make tea.

She knew that her son loved tea, especially the tea she brewed.

Every time I come to Izumo-in, I have to have a couple of drinks.

The breeze blows away the sadness, and the yard is filled with innocence.

After a while, Wushe came back with the toy.

There are all kinds of novelties in the pile of toys.

The most eye-catching are the various weapons made of wood, such as swords and daggers.

Shang Shixu pulled Wushe over and whispered, "I asked you to buy toys, but who told you to buy these wooden weapons for fighting and killing?"

Wu She waved his hands, looking extremely innocent.

"OP, I asked the stall owner, and he said that boys like these."

"is it?"

Shang Shixu looked at the pile of toys in front of him with half belief and half doubt.

Decided to observe the reactions of the two children first.

The elder brother Liu An was the first to show his love for toys.

He picked up the wooden dagger and waved it in the air like a knight.

His younger brother Liu Ning was picking and choosing among the toys and found a mask.

He put it on his face, trying to cover his blind eye.

Shang Shixu then realized that children have self-esteem.

That blind eye will make him feel inferior for the rest of his life.

She walked over quickly and touched the mask on the child's face.

Ask softly: "Can I take off your mask?

The material of this mask is not good, I want you to change it to a better one."

The child had only been with Shang Shixu for less than an hour, but he was still afraid of her from the bottom of his heart.

He retreated behind his brother again and covered his mask tightly.

Liu An dropped the dagger, hugged his brother distressedly, and kept comforting him: "Brother, Lord Shang means well.

He won't hurt us. This mask is too stuffy and will make your face uncomfortable. Can you take it off?"

Liu Ning first looked at his brother who had a worried look on his face, then glanced at Shang Shixu warily.

She mustered up the courage to leave her brother's arms and walked in front of Shang Shixu.

He raised his little face, looking ready to die.

Shang Shixu chuckled and gently took off the inferior mask.

The mask was removed, revealing a thin little face.

His face was covered with tear marks and began to turn red from being covered by the mask.

"Open your eyes, good boy."

Liu Ning nervously opened her eyes and saw a handsome yet beautiful face.

There was a gentle smile on his face, weakening the extremely oppressive atmosphere around him.

A hand with a fresh scent stroked his face and gently wiped away his tears.

Liu Ning suddenly wanted to throw herself into this very safe embrace and cry.

He first tentatively grabbed Shang Shixu's sleeve,

Seeing that Shang Shixu didn't refuse, he boldly jumped in.

The sound of a child crying resounded throughout the yard, and my aunt came out of the house in a hurry.

He still held the tea leaves that had not been put into the teapot.

"What's wrong? Why is Ning'er crying? Xu'er, are you okay?"

Although the aunt was worried about Liu Ning crying,

But she would never blame others without knowing right or wrong, especially when that person was Shang Shixu.

Shang Shixu didn't know what happened, so he could only look at his brother Liu An again,

Liu An shook his head, saying that he didn't know what happened.

So he walked over to Shang Shixu and gently poked his brother's exposed head.

"Brother, what's wrong with you? Can you tell me?"

Liu Ning held back her tears, raised her head and answered with a sob: "I'm fine, brother, I just... I just want to stay in Lord Shang's arms... I just..."

She said halfway through her words when she shyly hid her head in Shang Shixu's arms and refused to come out.

It was a false alarm, it turned out to be just a child acting coquettishly, everyone was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Shang Shixu held Liu Ning in his arms and sat on a stone bench, sipping the tea brewed by his aunt.

Liu An sat obediently beside them, and the personalities of the two children were fully displayed.

After a while, Shang Shixu put Liu Ning down and took his aunt and Wushe back to the room to discuss.

"Aunt, thank you for your hard work during this period. Now that the two children have fully recovered, it's time to take them to the Unknown Building for training."

The aunt looked out the window reluctantly. After the two children left, Izumoyuan would become quiet again.

Shang Shixu saw that his aunt was reluctant to let go, and he felt very sad.

How could she bear to make her aunt sad since she had been raised by her aunt?

correct!

Shang Shixu suddenly thought of a way to have the best of both worlds.

"Aunt, I think Liu An is very suitable for martial arts training.

Why don't you let him stay in Izumo-in and teach him martial arts?

Anyway, you were the one who taught me martial arts when I was a kid."

A smile instantly appeared on the face of the little aunt, and she excitedly held Shang Shixu's hand.

"That's great, Xu'er, let's do it this way. Liu An will be with me.

You don't have to run back and forth so much for me."

Shang Shixu's heart suddenly ached. She had been too busy recently.

The time I spent with my aunt was greatly reduced. When everything was settled,

She will definitely bring the people she loves, and the people who love her, with her.

Let’s live together in seclusion in the mountains and become the freest wind in the mountains.

After discussing it, the three of them walked out of the room and called the two children back.

Shang Shixu said seriously: "I will take you to the unknown building.

That is your destination, and it is also where Liu Ning will receive training.

As for Liu An, you stay and practice martial arts with your aunt."

When Liu Ning heard that she was going to be separated from her brother, she immediately hugged her brother tightly and refused to let go no matter what.

Liu An pushed his brother out of his arms, looked him in the eyes seriously and said:

"Brother, I can't rely on you this time. We need to learn some skills.

Only then can you protect yourself. Go, and remember that your brother is always with you. "

Shang Shixu looked helplessly at the two children who seemed to be experiencing the separation of life and death.

"Liu Ning and Liu An, you are just training separately, not facing life and death. I can't stop you from meeting each other."

The two children realized that they were wrong and lowered their heads in embarrassment.

Everyone just found it funny and couldn't help laughing.

"Okay, okay, it's getting late. Wushe, take Liu Ning to Buzhi Tower to find Huang Zhong.

Let her train him according to the rules for newcomers in the building."

"Yes, OP." Wushe took the order and left.

Shang Shixu said goodbye to his aunt and left.

But Liu An grabbed the corner of her clothes, and the child looked up at her cautiously.

Shang Shixu turned around to look at him, but he turned his head away with a red face.

What's wrong with this child? He's so shy.

Shang Shixu squatted down to look him in the eye and asked with concern: "Xiao Liuan, what's wrong with you? Are you missing your brother?"

Liu An shook his head, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

Finally, she couldn't help herself and stammered with a red face, "Um... um... Lord Shang, can I also throw myself into your arms? Just like a younger brother..."

Shang Shixu smiled, what a shy child.

"Of course you can if you want."

Liu An didn't care about being shy and threw himself into Shang Shixu's arms. His brother was right. He did feel very safe in Lord Shang's arms.
