Atractylodes

Chang'an City.

It has been two days since Chong Baishu came back, these days people from all walks of life gathered in Chang'an, they all came for the alliance between Shen Yi and Chong Luo, the leader of the Golden Yuan League.Of course, there were many people who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to create chaos, so people from all walks of life gathered in the city for a while, which was even more lively than the martial arts conference.

The strange thing is that they haven't heard anything about Lan Junrong at all.

It was said in the streets and alleys that Lan Junrong would definitely seek revenge on Chongluo when he came back. There was a lot of suspicion about this, but there was almost no real hammer with definite evidence.And Bai Shu couldn't find Lan Junrong, which meant that the man seemed to have disappeared since he and Lan Junrong separated.

But no matter how Lan Junrong hides, he will definitely show up on the day Shen Yi and Chong Luo become sworn brothers.That is to say, "Come to die."

The plan Bai Shu told Zuo Yi had, but the success rate of the first step was pitifully small.

So far, Bai Shu has been eating melon seeds for two days in this restaurant that claims to have the best view, Xiaoer only uses the whites of his eyes when he sees him, that is to say, his skin is as thick as a city wall, and other people will definitely not be able to bear such eyes attack.

Suddenly, a very familiar figure in clothing flashed downstairs, and Bai Shu thought that Sijun was too much and his eyes were dazzled.Looking carefully again, it was Shen Qijun who was right, he just wanted to turn over but his body froze suddenly - standing beside Shen Qijun was a little girl in red, twelve or thirteen years old, with a beautiful appearance and a slim appearance, I no longer see the childish appearance of the past.

Bai Shu was stunned there...

Shen Qijun suddenly raised his head vigilantly and looked in Chong Baishu's direction, Baishu turned his head quickly, but fortunately he had already changed his appearance when he came out, so it was hard to be recognized without a close look.

Chongxing also raised his head, looked in the direction Shen Qijun was looking at, and asked strangely, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Shen Qijun turned around, "You don't want to come out alone, a child, Chang'an City is so big, what if you encounter danger?"

Chongxing suddenly laughed as if remembering something, "Dangerous? You don't know, I was kidnapped by my elder brother."

"By your elder brother?"

"I was so scared. At that time, I didn't know what was going on. I only knew that the elder brother used me to deceive my brother. The elder brother and the elder brother Junrong almost fought. I still felt baffled, and I realized it later. Big brother will know in time..."

Shen Qijun felt as if something was stuck in his heart, he also heard the story of those two people three years ago, at that time he only thought it was ridiculous and incomprehensible, but now when he hears it again, he feels various feelings in his heart.It turned out that when he knew him, he had already experienced so many things.

"Heavy Star..."

"Ah?" It was the first time that Chong Xing was called by Shen Qijun so concatenately.

"Do you think your brother killed Lin Jin?"

Chong Xing shook his head, "I don't believe it. Chong Bai Shu can't beat Eldest Senior Brother, and it's absolutely impossible to be him."

"So it's Lan Junrong..."

"It can't be brother Junrong either!" Chong Xing interrupted Shen Qijun, "I know what you all think about them, but Chong Baishu and brother Junrong would never do such a thing!"

"Then do you trust your elder brother?"

Zhongxing was obviously shocked, "My elder brother? Of course I believe him..."

"Since there is only one truth of the matter, one of your eldest brother and your second brother must be lying to you."

"They...they must have misunderstood something!" Chongxing's eyes dodged.

Shen Qijun slightly raised his eyebrows, "I hope so..."

Zhongxing was frightened by the thoughts in his heart.

"Shen Qijun..."

"Ok?"

"Do you know your brother?"

Shen Qijun narrowed his eyes, "What do you want to say?"

"So why didn't he get married?"

Shen Qijun's face turned pale instantly, Chongxing looked at him with a pair of sly eyes.

"You think too much." Such a weak defense could no longer conceal the panic in Shen Qijun's heart. The girl's heart was like a mirror, and she could see through some shocking truths under cover with just one glance.

"Are you hungry? I'm going to buy something." Shen Qijun said in a panic.

Chong Xing stood where he was, with the corners of his mouth slowly raised, but he couldn't be happy at all. Shen Qijun walked for a long time and didn't come back. Chong Xing wanted to go to find Shen Qijun, but found that he was lost again without knowing it.

"Little sister, do you need directions?" A voice suddenly sounded from behind.

Chongxing turned around to look, and then rolled his eyes, "You don't look like a good person, how can you be so kind?"

"Little sister, you can't talk like that. Chang'an City is so big, you should be anxious if your family can't find you." The man took a few steps forward to catch up with Chong Xing, and Chong Xing ignored the man's accusation and continued to move forward .

"Sister, stop!" Chongxing turned around and wanted to shake off the man's hand grabbing his shoulder, but was surprised to find that he couldn't shake it off.

Who is this person?

"You let me go!"

"Little sister can have a quick temper at such a young age..." The man leaned over with an evil smile on his face, and Chong Xing took two steps back in fear.

"Boom!" A person jumped down from behind that person and kicked that person's chest.The person who came was wearing a mask with a monkey face, and took away Xiao Taohong from her hand, and fought with the person who harassed her just now. The strength of the person was very different, and the opponent was wiped out in just three or two moves.

The man walked over slowly, stretching out his hand as if to give Xiao Taohong back to her, but Chongxing's eyes were red, and he didn't reach out to take it.

"Heavy Atractylodes?"

The person on the opposite side didn't respond, he forced Xiao Taohong into her hand, turned around and jumped onto the eaves, Chong Xing's voice was already crying, "Chong Baishu! Chong Baishu, stop! I know it's you!"

"elder brother."

Bai Shu's body froze.

He just felt something rushing over and hugging his waist behind him, Chongxing said in a crying voice, "Brother, I miss you so much, don't go..."

Bai Shu turned around and squatted down, slowly wiping the tears off Chongxing's face, "I'm not leaving, don't cry." Chongxing reached out and took off the mask on his face. Three years have passed, and Baishu has haggarded a lot and disappeared completely. The high-spirited and unscrupulous appearance back then didn't look like her brother anymore.

Bai Shu wiped the tears from Chong Xing's face, pinched her face, "You look so good-looking now?"

"I was not good-looking before?"

"Tsk, I used to be like a monkey."

"I hate it!" Chongxing smiled through his tears, and threw his fist at Baishu.

Bai Shu was silent for a while, "I have something to ask Shen Qijun, you tell him tomorrow at noon..."

"I'm here……"

Shen Qijun didn't know when he appeared behind Baishu, Shen Qijun had recognized Chong Baishu in the restaurant just now, the person who wanted to kidnap Chongxing was just Shen Qijun's trick to force Baishu out, he was waiting for Baishu to see when he would make a move .What he didn't expect was that Bai Shu came looking for him. "Tell me something."

"I want to ask you to help me with one thing." Chong Baishu met Shen Qijun's eyes with guilt, "Actually, I didn't want to come to you, but...but I have no other way..."

"Why should I help you?" Shen Qijun felt a sharp pain in his heart, "Why should I help you?"

Bai Shu exhaled, and said in embarrassment, "I was the one who was abrupt..."

"Heavy Baishu!" Shen Qijun interrupted Baishu.

Shen Qijun gritted his teeth, "Do you know..."

"I know." Bai Shu admitted, "But this time I didn't want to use you. I just wanted to ask you to help me as a friend. As for whether you want to help me, I don't want to force you."

"If you didn't ask me for help, you wouldn't come to me, would you?"

Chong Baishu didn't speak.

Chong Xing was stunned, looking blankly at Shen Qijun who was completely changed.

In the end, Shen Qijun closed his eyes resignedly, "How do you want me to help you?"

Bai Shu was about to speak when Chong Xing called out with a pale face, "Brother..."

Bai Shu turned his head and saw his younger sister looking at him in fear, "Are you guys going to join forces to deal with big brother?"

At that moment, Bai Shu seemed to remember that the girl in front of him was not only his own sister, but also Chong Luo's younger sister.He took it for granted that Chongxing would be on his side, but he seemed to have no reason to let Chongxing be on his side, and he didn't even want to involve Chongxing in this fight.

"Don't be afraid. I just want to save Lan Junrong, don't worry..."

After that day, Bai Shu and Shen Qijun met again in private. He told Shen Qijun his plan, begged Shen Qijun for help, and asked Shen Qi to keep an eye on Chongxing and not let her become a weapon against the other.The two parted ways after a brief conversation, and Shen Qijun never heard from Bai Shu again, which made him feel unreal, like a dream.

Seven days passed in a flash, but Shen Qijun lived like years.Shen Yi attached great importance to the Golden Orchid Ceremony. Shen's house was cleaned inside and out, and the flowers and plants in the courtyard were also carefully pruned.Because the people who will be present at that time are all big names in the world, safety is the top priority, and even the ingredients for the banquet have to be checked by Shen Qijun himself.After a few days, he and Chen Qi looked at each other's dark circles in silence.

That day Shen Qijun was waiting to see his elder brother in Shen Yi's yard, the always serious Chen Qi yawned three times during this period.There is a wisteria in the yard, which seems to be a hundred years old. This wisteria has been here since Shen Qijun remembered. Once the flowers wrap around the branches, it is like a dream scene. The flower branches hang down from the corners of the eaves, forming a purple haze in the sky. .

"The flowers bloomed very early this year."

"What?" Shen Qijun was disturbed by the sudden voice.

Chen Qi hugged her chest and said, "This flower came a little early this year..."

"Yes, it opened quite early."

Shen Qijun said thoughtfully.

……

After a while, a few people came out of Shen Yi's room, Shen Qijun stepped forward to say a few words of greeting, and then went in with Chen Qi.Besides Shen Yi, there was another person sitting in the room.

It was the first time for Shen Qijun to see Chong Luo, and it was also the first time to see someone other than his brother who made him feel awe-inspiring.Chong Luo sat on a chair in dark blue clothes, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a sense of coldness in the warmth.Shen Yi just pointed casually, "This is Chong Luo." Then he pointed to Shen Qijun and said, "This is my second brother Shen Qijun."

Chong Luo had already stood up, and smiled politely at him, "I heard that elder brother has a younger brother who is talented and handsome, and seeing him today is even more strange why elder brother still accepts me as a younger brother."

Shen Qijun couldn't help linking Chongluo and Chongbaishu. People said that Shen Qijun's temperament was very similar to Shen Yi, but Baishu and Chongluo had no similarities at all - Chongbaishu was simply a ruffian.

Shen Yiwen said, "You and I are destined. When you were young, you were defeated by me in martial arts competitions for three consecutive years, but people only knew that I, Shen, did not know that you were heavy. Winning and losing are commonplace, but when you meet friends, you meet opponents. Of course you can't miss it."

Shen Yi's eyes were sincere, and Chong Luo fell silent for a while.Shen Qijun took the words, "Chong Shaoxia and my eldest brother Jin Lan, and he will be my eldest brother from now on."

Shen Yi seemed very happy when he heard the words, "Since that's the case, why don't we all have a meal together."

Chong Luo glanced at the letters on Shen Yi's desk, raised his eyebrows slightly, "I see that you are very busy, so I won't trouble you."

Shen Yi was stunned for a moment, but he didn't force it, "That's right. I've been out for so long today, and my siblings must be waiting impatiently."

Shen Qijun saw the unknown emotion flashing across Chong Luo's eyes, "Yeah, it's time to wait."

……

There are always some people who like everything that is too fancy, and they can only try their best to get close, but they will never be able to touch it.

Shen Qijun's palms were already covered with sweat. Chen Qi had already discovered something was wrong with Shen Qijun. When Shen Yi sent Chong Luo out, he asked, "What's wrong with you? Why is your face so ugly?"

"Nothing. A little tired."

"It's been hard for you these few days." Shen Yi came in from the door, just in time to hear Shen Qijun's words, Shen Qijun stared at his brother's face, but couldn't find any clues.

"What are you looking at?"

He thought he knew Shen Yi very well, but he never knew that his elder brother could hide so deeply.Consuming any kind of emotion in a flat way, in the later years he simply regarded it as a change in peace.

Shen Qijun smiled, "I'm looking to see if my elder brother is also a little tired."

Shen Yi sat down at the desk, "I heard Chen Qi talk about the strange man you met in Yangzhou. It seems that the two of you hit it off very well, and even you are a bit glib."

Shen Qijun didn't speak, Shen Yi seemed to think of something, the hand holding the pen stopped in the air, "Qi Jun, you are already twenty this year."

"Yes."

Shen Yi exhaled, "It should be the age to start a family."

Shen Qijun was not in the mood of surprise, and lowered his eyebrows, "My brother hasn't married yet, how dare I..."

Shen Yi frowned, "I think there must be someone who wants you to learn from me in private. I wanted to tell you a long time ago that you don't have to think about how I would do everything. If you follow my example in this matter, you will naturally be delayed It's gone! I don't see you much on weekdays, so why bother to let other girls suffer like this."

"If the elder brother is sincere, he may not be able to squeeze in time."

"what?"

"I feel that I am a little young, and I am afraid that I will not be able to shoulder the important responsibilities of the family."

Shen Yi's complexion became abnormally ugly. These words were Shen Yi's answer when Shen's father urged Shen Yi to get married.But now, Shen Qijun actually returned it to him intact.

"I said, you are different from me! I..."

"But what if I say the same..." Shen Qijun raised his head, and saw his brother's face was full of surprise, and he didn't even have time to hide it.

But if I say the same...

Chen Qi was confused, "Why can't I understand what you two are talking about?"

Shen Qijun said, "Big brother is busy with business, so I won't bother you." Then he backed out.

He raised his head, the light passed through the petals and was smudged purple, cast on him charmingly and affectionately.It's like a dream...
