My old enemy always likes to pull my furry ears

It was not surprising to hear Chu Tan's name Xue Huan, he had already prepared for it, after all, he had heard about it from Jun An earlier, but in order to hear the deeper story behind it, he pretended to be curious and asked: "What does it have to do with Chu Tan? "

The uncle looked left and right, seeing Xue Huan's extraordinary clothes, guessed: "The young man is from out of town, right? I happen to be going back to help my mother-in-law look after the stall. Let's go and talk, it's not safe here."

On the way, the uncle chatted with Xue Huan, and when he talked about Chu Dan's behavior, he seemed very sorry.He said that Chu Dan was very popular in Yong'an. He was handsome and learned martial arts. He often helped people in the town, but something happened later, and Chu Dan changed.

There must be a reason for a person's personality to change suddenly, and often the results of the change are not satisfactory.

The uncle arrived at his shop, cleared up a small table, brought a pot of tea, and poured Xue Huan a cup.

He sat down and slowly preached to Xue Huan.

"Young Master Chu is chivalrous and warm-hearted. He didn't have a straight face like he does now. Although he looks cold, he still laughs often. He smiles very gently and is very close to others. But since After the daughter of the Yang family fell into the river, Chu Dan changed, he stopped smiling, and became extremely indifferent."

"Her death is related to Chu Dan."

Uncle: "It's been rumored in the market, I didn't believe it at first, but after Ms. Yang's funeral, I saw Chu Tan standing by the river several times, and it was night, especially late, when every household They are all asleep, and only some shopkeepers stay so late in order to make a living and prepare the goods for the next day."

Xue Huan said softly, "Maybe he is going to mourn."

"At first, I thought so too. Later, I heard someone say that Chu Tan and Ms. Yang had a secret tryst very early on. The relationship between the two is unusual. Ms. Yang's family was already pregnant, but the two families did not deal with each other. The Chu family thinks very highly of themselves, and the Yang family also does not take each other seriously. If they are together, they will definitely be opposed. Chu Dan has a great reputation. If this news gets out, what will everyone think? So..."

"So, you mean that Chu Tan killed Miss Yang in order to protect his reputation." Xue Huan finished what he hadn't finished.

Hearing that his tone was a bit stiff, the uncle immediately explained: "I heard these from others, and I don't know." At the end, he whispered: "But if this is not the case, why does Miss Yang want to seek death?"

"There are many reasons for wanting to die, how do you think it has something to do with Chu Tan?"

Xue Huan paused, and when he heard this voice, he knew that the follower was coming again.

Yan Zhou appeared from behind, stood by the table, and asked, "Can I sit down?"

He looked sideways at Xue Huan, and stood beside him, as if Xue Huan would never make his own decision unless Xue Huan let him sit down.

Xue Huan raised his chin, "Sit down, how did you find this place?"

With a flattering smile on Yan Zhou's face, he said: "I hurt Nan Xiaohui today and made you unhappy. If you ran out, how could I have the nerve to stay with your two apprentices, so I came to curry favor with you. Do you still blame me?"

The words are beautiful, the heart is sincere, and it is impeccable.

Holding the teacup in his hand, Xue Huan said, "I blame you? Come on, just don't cause me any trouble, I said you don't know how much you weigh, what are you running around at night!"

Yan Zhou's eyebrows were curved, and his eyelashes covered his entire eyelids. His eyelashes were thick and long, and they curved into crescent moons when he smiled, as if dotted with little stars, adding a touch of delicacy to his plain face.

Sure enough, people should smile more and look better, Xue Huan cursed in his heart.

"I saw it." When he said that without thinking, Xue Huan's mind froze, "What?"

Yan Zhou said: "I saw the water ghost killing people, and I also saw Chu Rong and Chu Dan."

"What do you want to say?"

"Old man, have you seen that water ghost?"

The uncle replied: "I see, isn't that the Miss Yang Jingmei, Yang Jingmei?"

"Then have you seen Chu Dan?"

The uncle nodded: "I saw it too, he came with Second Young Master Chu."

"The reaction of everyone should be very clear, you have seen it too." Yan Zhou suddenly asked Xue Huan.

Xue Huan didn't answer him, "What's the matter?"

"Everyone's attitude towards Chu Rong is like a savior, but the attitude towards Chu Dan is completely different. You said that Chu Dan wants to prevent Yang Jingmei from ruining his reputation. Is that the result he wants now?"

Chu Dan's reputation was higher than that of Chu Rong's before. Since Yang Jingmei's accident, rumors about the two of them spread in the streets, and he disappeared from everyone's sight.

If he was such a famous person, he would definitely not let himself fall from the altar.

The uncle couldn't think about such a deep question, so he said: "Speaking of which, Chu Dan has rarely taken action these years, it is Chu Rong who is protecting the safety of the town."

The implication is that Chu Tan's decline in reputation was also caused by himself.

Yan Zhou touched Xue Huan's arm and said, "Come with me."

"What?"

"Come or not!"

The two ran to the river where the water ghosts were eating people. At this time, the river was still quiet, because they saw the water ghosts just now. The shops not far from the river were closed early, and the streets nearby were also deserted.

Yan Zhou led Xue Huan along the bank to the bottom of the bridge, and stopped beside a willow tree.

There is a large pool of water on the ground, and there is a very light footprint on these stones.

Yan Zhou pointed here and said, "Chu Tan has been here, I saw him move people away twice."

Xue Huan squatted down, wiped the water from the stones on his body, and said, "You mean that Chu Tan rescued the people who fell into the water before?"

"I don't know whether to save him or not, I just saw him move out." Yan Zhou said, "I don't think he looks like a bad guy."

Xue Huan nodded: "I think you look like a bad guy."

"Ok?"

"This kind of horrible thing happened in the middle of the night. Ordinary people hid far away, but you came up to spy on others."

Yanzhou's eyes and nose were burning, and he said angrily: "I think sometimes what I see may not be true, and a person's personality cannot be determined by others' words." He looked around, "And I always feel that Yong'an is a strange place. of."

"Where is it strange?" Xue Huan walked around him and walked out of the bridge from the side.

"What do you think?" Yan Zhou asked back.

Xue Huan thought for a while: "The two sons of the Chu family."

Characters in the wind and cloud generally hide dark secrets, especially this switch of identities between the two is too strange.

"I know something, do you want to hear it?" Yan Zhou asked.

"Go ahead."

"I have inquired about it. Two years ago, Chu Rong suffered from a strange illness. He felt hot all over for no reason. It was not a cold. Later, the Chu government found an expert to cure him. Then, a few days later, Yang Jingmei fell into the water and died. After that, Chu Dan seldom showed his face in public, and his reputation gradually declined."

Xue Huan hugged his arms, thinking about his words, "Strange disease?" He thought, what strange disease is he feeling hot all over his body, it's not the wind and cold.

"Chu Rong has been bedridden in a coma. After recovering from his illness, he seemed to be fine. He didn't feel anything about his illness. The amazing thing is that since then, he has been in charge of the second branch of the governor, and his spiritual attainments are quite high. In just one year, he surpassed Chu Dan."

Yanzhou gestured with both hands, "At a node, a person rises up suddenly, and a person suddenly falls down, and the position is reversed. What does it look like?"

"Exchange of identities." Xue Huan spit out every word.

The identities of the chivalrous and righteous have been swapped, but the two are still the same.

If you want to know what happened, you have to ask the person closest to you, or ask yourself, but who would accept inquiries from strangers for no reason?

Xue Huan thought of a way and said, "Didn't you say last time that Mrs. Chu's grandson is seeking treatment for dementia?"

"You want to go in?" Yan Zhou saw through him.

"Xiaohui can try it. He has extensive knowledge and knowledge, and he can cure some difficult and miscellaneous diseases." Xue Huan said confidently.

Mentioning Nan Xiaohui, Yan Zhou's pupils dimmed instantly, he restrained his smile, pretended to be casual and said: "Is he very powerful?"

Xue Huan: "He's very smart."

clever?Am I not smart?

"Does he have a high spiritual rank? Chu Mansion may not be a good place." Yan Zhou's mouth was sour, and his tongue was a little numb.

"Of course he didn't let him go alone." Xue Huan said, "The doctor also has followers."

Yan Zhou's teeth also became sore, "You care about him?"

Xue Huan gave him a strange look: "Why are you asking this? Xiaohui is not in good health, so I have to watch him."

I think you are looking at people's appearance is also good.

"Although Xiaohui's spiritual rank is not high, he is well-informed and story-telling is top-notch, especially because he has a gentle temperament." I am familiar with this temperament.Xue Huan didn't say the following words, because he didn't want to understand when he had this familiar feeling, and why he kept remembering it until now.

Yan Zhou walked behind him, peeking at him occasionally to see the corners of his lips curled up, which easily reminded him of the boy who was galloping around Liushuang Lake. The boy's smile was very warm, like the stars reflected in the quiet lake Beautiful, not profane.

It turns out that he likes gentle people, Yan Zhou bowed his head and smiled imperceptibly, how long will it take me to change?

Chu Rong returned to the room. In the darkness, he asked about another person's breath.

"Didn't you say we will meet in Chashan in the future?" Chu Rong calmly walked to the table and poured some water to drink.

The man sat on Chu Rong's bed, ignored his questioning, slowly opened his closed eyes, opened the bed curtain, and said hoarsely, "Are you still waiting?"

Chu Rong's complexion changed, and with some strength in his hand, he threw the cup on the table.

"I think he's about to find out." Chu Rong turned to face him: "I killed a water ghost today, named Yang Jingmei."

The man was silent for a while, then jumped out of the bed, he was five feet long, he wore black clothes at night, and his face was partially hidden by the hat.

"So what, even if you fall out with him now, you won't lose anything. Chu Rong's reputation is much bigger than Chu Dan's now, as you know."

But Chu Rong said harshly: "It's not enough, I want Chu Dan to disappear forever."

"That depends on you. When you absorb enough spiritual power to dig out the spiritual source in Chu Dan's body, you will be the only god in Yong'an. Don't forget your deal with me then."

After the little man finished speaking, there was a sound of chewing meat behind him. A child with big eyes, white skin, and blood-colored fangs jumped out from behind him. He had just finished eating a bone, and the blood from his mouth hadn't been wiped clean.

Chu Rong was not afraid, "Don't worry, I haven't forgotten."

"I would like to advise you, Chu Dan's spiritual power can't fully integrate with you, don't be impatient, and be careful of backlash." The little dwarf disappeared into a wisp of black smoke after speaking, and the child behind him also disappeared.

There was a lingering smell of blood in the room, Chu Rong waved his sleeves.

"dirty."
