After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Qiao Rulai and Shangguan Hongxin once again embarked on a journey to tour the Nine Realms. Meng Qiusun also took Xiaokong away because of worrying about the situation in the sea and the situation of wanting to move the stars. Wuxin and Canglang also bid farewell to Shi Yanwen and Su really turned back to Miaojiang.The bustling Zhengqi Villa became deserted again, only Shi Yanwen, Su Huanzhen, Xueshan Yinyan and Zhu Jiuyin remained.

Xueshan Yinyan was not surprised that her father kept her here. After all, her elder brother and second brother both had work to do, and she was the one who had the most free time. It was right to stay with her father for a while.But Zhu Jiuyin who was beside him didn't think so. After all the others had left, Shi Yanwen's vigilant expression didn't let up for a moment, but Su Zhenzhen was smiling as always, watching meaningfully. Own.

"Father, sir, why are you all looking at Zhu Jiuyin?" Xueshan Yinyan felt strange about the current silent atmosphere, she took the lead to break the silent atmosphere, and at the same time followed her father's line of sight to look at Zhu Jiuyin. Jiuyin, there is nothing wrong with it?

Flaming red hair, white skin like snow, and such a handsome face, people can't help but be fascinated.Xueshan Yinyan's eyes were a little blurred, but she quickly returned to normal, except for a slight blush on her cheeks.

At this time, Yinyan's back was facing Su Zhenzhen and Shi Yanwen, so only Zhu Jiuyin saw the change in Yinyan's expression, and a smile flashed in his eyes. As Shi Yanwen's son, there were two How could a brother as shrewd as a fox be so straightforward and simple?

"It's nothing, Yanwen and I are just curious about how you met Zhu Jiuyin?"

Hearing Yin Yan's words of protecting Zhu Jiuyin, Shi Yanwen's body couldn't help being startled, and her heart was full of doubts and puzzles, while Su Zhenzhen was curious about how Yin Yan met Zhu Jiuyin. When he was thrown out of Jiumai Peak, he used a lot of strength to send him away. At that time, Emperor Yuanxie was in the form of a newborn baby, so how could he take the initiative to contact others.

Hearing Su Huan's real question, Xueshan Yinyan was taken aback, and her thoughts couldn't help but go back to the day when she met Zhu Jiuyin.

That day, he was so angry by Jian Wuji's words that he ran out of Huanzhu Tower, running around aimlessly. Then he suddenly remembered that his father and the others were going to Jiumai Peak to deal with Emperor Yuanxie, so he turned his footsteps and turned to him. Walk in the direction of Jiumai Peak.But he didn't expect that halfway there, an unknown object flew towards him from the sky in the direction of Jiumai Peak, and he picked it up and saw a baby with red fetal hair in his arms.

He was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to do with this baby, he must not be able to wear him if he was going to such a dangerous place as Jiumai Peak, but now... there is no trace of people in this barren mountain, if he is hungry , It would be bad to hurt the baby.He then took the baby to the opposite direction of Jiumai Peak.

He originally wanted to give the baby to a family without children to be raised, but as soon as he left, the baby screamed, and the couple in that family had to chase the baby out to return the baby to him.He tried this several times, and then he gave up on giving the child to someone else to raise him.

At that time, the news of Emperor Yuanxie being eliminated also spread in the Central Plains, so he had nothing to worry about. The conflict with Jian Wuji was also left behind because of this child, and he was busy taking care of this child every day. child.And the situation of this child is also very strange, within a few days he grew up a bit, but within a few days he already looked like a five or six year old child.

At that time, he also knew the child's name—Zhu Jiuyin. According to Zhu Jiuyin, it was just an accident that he turned into a baby, and he would recover after a period of time without his care. His kindness It will be repaid in the future.However, at that time, he was worried that the child would leave alone, and asked Zhu Jiuyin to stay by his side as a way of repaying his kindness by letting him accompany him on a tour of the rivers and lakes.

In his view, Zhu Jiuyin's appearance as a baby must be due to a magic spell or a practice of kung fu, and he suffered backlash. At this time, he must have no power to protect himself. However, it is not peaceful, and there is no guarantee that it will not encounter a fatal crisis.What's more, even if Zhu Jiuyin regained his physical strength, walking alone in the martial arts world would inevitably be lonely, it would be better to walk with two people together.

Zhu Jiuyin did not push back his request, but nodded silently after glancing at him with a complicated expression. He was very happy to see that Zhu Jiuyin agreed to his request. After knowing about Zhu Jiuyin , he doesn't treat him as a child, but the child's appearance also prevents him from treating him as a senior, so he just treats Zhu Jiuyin as a peer, just like Jian Wuji It's the same when walking in the martial arts.

Zhu Jiuyin's body grew a little bit every day, and he gradually became numb from the surprise at the beginning, and became accustomed to it. Looking at Zhu Jiuyin's more and more beautiful face and more and more oppressive aura, he I felt that Zhu Jiuyin's original skills might be extremely profound, but why didn't such a powerful person help Zhongyuan when Emperor Yuanxie appeared before?He turned back into a baby for some reason.

Xueshan Yinyan didn't answer Su Zhenzhen's words, and fell into the memories alone.And seeing such a silver swallow in the snow mountain, Zhu Jiuyin couldn't help recalling the memory after being hit hard by Su Zhenzhen and falling into darkness.

He really never thought that he would wake up again, and what he saw in the dark made him wonder whether his actions could really bring a better living environment for the freak-eyed people, and when he When I opened my eyes again, I found that I had turned into a baby, unable to speak, and without physical abilities.

Rescued by Snow Mountain Yinyan, but he would rather stay with the young man who took him away than be adopted by the human race, because he can feel that this body belongs to him and has no other breath. The purest brand-new life form conceived by the power and a drop of life essence, after adapting to its own power, it will change accordingly according to its own situation, and I am afraid that it will return to an adult state in a short time. The world will cause unnecessary trouble.

And after he regained the state of being able to move freely, he also learned the identity of Xueshan Yinyan. When he wanted to leave, he was detained by him. He left as he wanted, but he is not the kind of ungrateful person. Since The other party takes this as a condition for repaying his kindness, so it doesn't matter if he agrees.What surprised him was that this young man's frankness and frankness were nothing like the Shi family he remembered.

In the days that followed, he walked the rivers and lakes with Xueshan Yinyan, and encountered many things, which made him see the warmth and warmth of human beings and the various states of time that were different from the demon world, and he also had a deeper understanding of Xueshan Yinyan. , his past, his thoughts, his aspirations, this Xueshan Yinyan really misses him in the past, for his own aspirations, for his own beliefs, he will go all the way to the end, even if he is an enemy of the whole world, he will not give up, But it is different. He values ​​family affection and understands that his relatives make some choices for the sake of the common people, but he can't forgive him. He can't forgive his incompetence for not giving his relatives other choices. He wants to become stronger and be able to protect himself Relatives who can help him.

When he received a letter from Su Zhenzhen, hoping that Yinyan would return to Zhengqi Villa for the Mid-Autumn Festival, he thought that when he parted ways with Xueshan Yin, he did not expect that Xueshan Yinyan wanted to take him with him. go to festival.

"Zhu Jiuyin, Dad asked me to go back for the holidays, you can go with me." At that time, Xueshan Yinyan held the letter in her hand and said to him happily, her eyes were full of anticipation.

"I am not a historian."

He tactfully rejected Xueshan Yinyan's invitation, but Xueshan Yinyan didn't seem to understand him, thinking that he was embarrassed to go back with him, and said quickly, "It doesn't matter, sir said in the letter, brother and two Brother wants to take someone back, saying that if I want to take someone back, I just need to write him a letter, and he will also prepare a pair of bowls and chopsticks."

He looked at Xueshan Yinyan with a look of "Don't worry, it doesn't matter", and then he couldn't help but feel ashamed when he heard what he said. Qiao Rulai and your second brother brought someone back, and that person must be someone close to them—— It's your sister-in-law, not an outsider who can naturally attend this kind of family banquet, so what if you take me back as an outsider.

"After all, I'm just an outsider. It's inconvenient for you to take me to a family banquet."

He spoke more bluntly this time, but Xueshan Yinyan once again took a letter and said to him, "Zhu Jiuyin, sir, tell me that it's fine for you to go back with me."

He was startled when he heard the words. He didn't know when Xueshan Yinyan had already replied to the letter, and he got the reply from the husband he said. This sentence of dialogue is obviously newly added, and the above content is exactly what Yinyan expressed just now.

Who is the gentleman in Xueshan Yinyan's mouth, and why is this person conveying the letter of such a family banquet? Since he had doubts in his heart, he asked directly. He knew that Xueshan Yinyan would not hide anything from him, "Silver Yan, who is the gentleman you are talking about?"

"He!" Speaking of Su Zhenzhen, Xueshan Yinyan's expression was stunned for a moment, but then she quickly answered Shi Yanwen's question, "He is my father's partner, so to speak... is my other partner. A father. His name is Su Zhenzhen."

'It turned out to be him. Hearing Xueshan Yinyan's answer, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. He didn't expect that the same kind of person he met for the first time in the devil world, the person who destroyed him but brought him back to life, had such a relationship with Shi Yanwen. It's just a little bit of surprise, he is not one of those pedantic people, and such things are normal in the devil world, after all, the environment in the devil world is not as peaceful as the human world, the harsh environment makes the survival rate of women not high, men and women It is also common for men to form a bond as a couple.He just didn't expect that the upright person in front of him would accept the real relationship between Shi Yanwen and Su Huanhuan.

"You don't object?"

Xueshan Yinyan shook her head with a smile, saying that it was impossible to say no, but the existence of Su Huan made her father smile a lot, and the relationship with their sons became more harmonious. Quite a lot, it made him, a person who wants to get more human relations and family affection, very satisfied. Su really made them see more clearly that his father was different from the gentle but alienated appearance in front of others. On top of the gentle appearance, there is a little distance that can be approached.

"It would be nice if Daddy could feel happy."

Looking at the gratified smile on Xueshan Yinyan's face, he couldn't help flashing a trace of envy in his eyes, and he didn't refuse when Xueshan Yinyan wanted him to go back to Zhengqi Villa with him again for the Mid-Autumn Festival.

"...That's how I got acquainted with Zhu Jiuyin."

When Zhu Jiuyin came back to her senses, Xueshan Yinyan had already withdrawn from her memories, and finished talking about the process of his acquaintance with Shi Yanwen and Su Zhenzhen.

After Shi Yanwen listened to Yinyan's story, combined with Su Zhenzhen's explanation about Emperor Yuanxie to him last night, he already understood that Zhu Jiuyin now is just Zhu Jiuyin instead of Emperor Yuanxie, and this person is still He cared about Yinyan very much, and let him put down his worries about the fact that the person beside Yinyan was Emperor Yuanxie.Since the other party has no intention of destroying the Nine Realms, what's the point of saving his life? After all, to restore the Six Forbidden Lands, you still need the help of Emperor Yuanxie. Only the devil can know.

"Yinyan, you and Zhu, Zhu Jiuyin, stay in Zhengqi Villa for a while."

Shi Yanwen said this because he wanted to investigate Zhu Jiuyin further for a period of time, while Xueshan Yinyan thought that after her father knew about Zhu Jiuyin, she was willing to help Zhu Jiuyin recover to its original state, so she happily pulled Zhu Jiuyin's hand said, "Zhu Jiuyin, you should stay together."

Looking at Xueshan Yinyan's sincere eyes, Zhu Jiuyin found that he couldn't calm down to refuse the young man's request, so he could only agree again, "Okay."

In the following days, Xueshan Yinyan unexpectedly met a father who lived at home. Although the gentleman is far away from the kitchen, the three meals a day at Zhengqi Villa are prepared by the father, while the rest of the tea and cakes are prepared by the husband. .

He also asked his father why he was cooking. At that time, his father's expression was a little strange, but the expression flashed too fast. He didn't see it clearly but thought it was an illusion. His father said that the pastries and tea made by Mr. Eat well, and the craftsmanship is good.At that time, Zhu Jiuyin, who passed by him and his father, heard his words, but his expression was distorted, and he reminded him in a deep voice not to mention cooking in front of the husband, although he was puzzled, he didn't ask again. Because what Zhu Jiuyin said was reasonable, he would not harm himself.But later, he was asked by his husband to try some dishes, and the taste was not bad. Why didn't his father and Zhu Jiuyin want his husband to cook?Why did father and Zhu Jiuyin's faces change when he said that the husband's food tasted good? (Shi Yanwen said that he really knows everything, but he lacks a little bit of talent in cooking. Zhu Jiuyin said that even if he eats vegetarian cakes for a month, he doesn’t want to try vegetarian meals anymore , the color and fragrance are complete, but the taste is indescribable... the taste.)

But the husband said to leave them alone, he would lead him to research new dishes, and cook them for other people during the Chinese New Year. He thought it was a good idea, since eating hot pot every year was indeed a bit boring, and he also wanted to change it for everyone. New attempt.

Shi Yanwen and Zhu Jiuyin, who heard Yinyan and Suzhenzhen's thoughts in Xueshan Mountain, looked at each other in unison, and then rushed to the foot of the mountain to prepare stomach medicine for the New Year's Day in the near future, as well as for the people who came back to Zhengqi Villa for the New Year and himself.
