Take the sword out of Yanjing

What, shouted excitedly: "You will help me avenge you?"

Zhao Luoyi had nothing to do with him, and was dizzy from being yelled at, so he could only say, "It depends on your performance."

"Forget it, I'll take revenge on my own. You teach me kung fu. When I'm as good as you, I can take revenge!" Li Meng was immersed in the beautiful vision, and he grabbed Zhao Luoyi's ear and pulled it back and forth, feeling that his earlobe was very tight. He was soft, and the pinnae of his ears felt cold to the touch. He didn't jump down to the ground until he caught the pinnae of his ears burning, and continued to finish his breakfast.

In the evening, Zhao Luoyi and the madam of the brothel went to the side hall to talk, while Li Meng sat in the courtyard with nothing to do.

The sun was setting in the sky, and under the red light, it seemed that the god was drunk.

"Walk."

Li Meng followed, Zhao Luoyi weighed the purse, put it away, and patted Li Meng's head.The servant of the brothel brought out Zhao Luoyi's horse, he carried Li Meng on it first, looked around casually, got on the horse, wrapped his arms around Li Meng, ran out of the alley behind the brothel, and set out on the road at night.

Li Meng leaned his head back comfortably on Zhao Luoyi's chest, and drove out of the city, only to remember that Zhao Luoyi's waist and abdomen were injured. Li Meng sat up straight, and Zhao Luoyi's stiff body relaxed.

☆, idler

In the middle of the night, there was a sound of flapping on the window lattice.

Huo Lianyun turned over and sat up, pushed open the window, the mottled gray harrier shook its neck up and down, its sharp beak looked fierce.

After a while, the letter kite flew out, Huo Lianyun stretched out the letter, his eyebrows could not help but wrinkled.He got out of bed and fastened his robe, and in the same inn, he knocked on the door of a room.

The door opened, and the woman's soft eyebrows and eyes were revealed through the crack of the door. Xiao Changchu tilted his head sideways: "Young Lord, we should not know each other outside. I'm afraid it's inappropriate for you to come here so rashly."

"Zhao Luoyi has gone to Nanzhou."

Xiao Chang smiled, "What are you going to do in Nanzhou? He doesn't seem to have any old history in Nanzhou..."

Huo Lianyun also couldn't understand why Zhao Luoyi suddenly abducted to Nanzhou. Xiao Changchu took the letter to read and heaved a sigh of relief, "He still wants to go to Fengyang, but it will be a few days later. I have been waiting for such a long time. Wait for him any longer. How many days does it matter?"

"It's just that I don't know what he's going to do in Nanzhou." Huo Lianyun thought about it, and finally said the truth.

"Just say what you have to say, my aunt is straight-hearted, she can't turn around, and she can't understand the words of your officials." Xiao Changchu looked contemptuously.

"Anyway, Zhao Luoyi is from the Zhao family."

Xiao Changchu's relaxed expression suddenly changed, thinking of something, he murmured: "Is the Poison King Sun Tianyin still living at home?"

"Still."

"Senior brother is for his apprentice!" Xiao Changchu became nervous, "He already knows that Li Meng has Gu on him, and when he arrives at the Idle People's Residence, this line will be broken."

Huo Lianyun smiled lightly: "It is God's will that he accept an apprentice."

"No one can take away my senior brother..." Xiao Changchu's beautiful face twisted a little, and he closed the door suddenly.

Huo Lianyun went downstairs, the bamboo shadows were sparse, he sat in the courtyard with a lot of thoughts, the cold wind hit his whole body and made him a little stiff, so he went back to his room to rest.

……

It is not easy to snow in the south, and it is rainy for days, but it is also terribly cold.

Passing Fengyang, I bought two thick cotton robes for my apprentice, Zhao Luoyi himself is not afraid of the cold.During the day, Li Meng could fall asleep on the horse, snuggling up against Zhao Luoyi's furnace-like body, it was more comfortable than sleeping on the damp bed in the inn at night.

The rainy weather made Li Meng lack energy, and when he dismounted to the top, he was always listless and lost in thought.

"Master, how long will we be there?"

Leaving Fengyang City early in the morning, the sky was very bright, Li Meng was riding on the horse, his body was precarious.

"Hurry up, three days at most." Zhao Luoyi wrapped his strong arms around him to prevent him from falling off the horse.

Li Meng made a vague "hmm".

At noon, the master and apprentice dismounted to eat. Li Meng stared at the four or five bamboo cages hung by the owner of the restaurant under the eaves. Mynah and kingfisher were lively and jumping in the cages.

"What are you doing, shopkeeper, do you want to eat?"

Zhao Luoyi grabbed Li Meng's back collar and dragged him towards him, making him turn around and sit down on the stool.

"Don't pay attention to him." Zhao Luoyi said to the shopkeeper.

There were two big bowls of steaming beef noodles, Zhao Luoyi gave Li Meng the meat, and Li Meng took the radish slices to Zhao Luoyi.

The master and apprentice buried their heads in the meal and were sweating profusely. After drinking the soup, Li Meng felt refreshed and refreshed a little.

"Master, how long before we arrive in Nanzhou?"

Zhao Luoyi: "..."

Seeing that Zhao Luoyi didn't answer, Li Meng got on the horse and was still chattering and questioning, Zhao Luoyi slammed on the back of his head.Li Meng ate a mouthful of horse mane, honestly.

Li Meng's fear of himself had been greatly reduced, but it was also a headache, and he was extremely noisy. He often had to ask the same question several times, which made Zhao Luoyi extremely annoyed.He replied when he was in a good mood, and didn't bother to answer when he was in a bad mood, but Li Meng didn't get angry at all, and disappeared for a while, then caught up with him and continued to ask.

Zhao Luoyi runs outside all year round, never had such a lively day, and will be so noisy in the future, compared to the unspeakable silence of a person, it seems that there is nothing wrong, at least he can beat the boy when he is in a bad mood.

Two days later.

"dismount."

Hearing the voice, Li Meng opened his sleepy eyes. They were at the foot of a mountain with narrow stone steps, and it was difficult for a horse to walk with people on its back.

After being carried off the horse by Zhao Luoyi, a fur hat was put on Li Meng's head. He straightened himself up and followed Zhao Luoyi step by step.

The mountain road was slippery, and Li Meng sprained his foot because he didn't take two steps.

"..." Zhao Luoyi walked up to him and knelt down.

"Master wants to carry me? No way." Li Meng refused, staring at the wide and warm back in front of him with bright eyes.

"Whispering." Zhao Luoyi said displeased.

Li Meng hurriedly got down on the ground, buried his head in Zhao Luoyi's neck, his nose was sticking to Zhao Luoyi's smooth and warm skin, Li Meng sniffed deeply secretly, and felt that Zhao Luoyi had a nice smell, but it wasn't a fragrance, anyway, it made him a little dry and hot , blood flow speed up.

The crystal clear water dripped from the tips of the thick green pine leaves. Li Meng covered his master with one hand and heard Zhao Luoyi's deep voice. When Zhao Luoyi spoke, the vibration in his chest came through his back, which made Li Meng feel An indescribable feeling, as if they were very close, without a single gap.

"Is there anyone living on the mountain? Why did we come here first? Didn't we go to Fengyang to meet the second uncle first?"

Zhao Luoyi's footsteps stopped, and soon continued to go up the mountain, and a muffled voice sounded: "Do you like your second uncle?"

Li Meng was stunned for a moment, his ears turned red: "Second Martial Uncle treats me best when Master is not in the building."

Zhao Luoyi made a "hmm" sound, and white air came out of his nose. He looked up, and there was a pavilion not far in front of him.Thinking about setting Li Meng's bones, Zhao Luoyi walked up to the pavilion as soon as possible, let Li Meng sit down, took off his boots, and felt Li Meng's swollen ankle through the socks.

Li Meng snorted.

Zhao Luoyi looked up at him, Li Meng looked into the distance nonchalantly, and said cheerfully: "Master, do you see that, squirrel!"

"In such a cold day, squirrels hide in tree holes for the winter and won't come out. Your eyes are blurred."

"I really saw it. If you don't believe me, look, it came out to look for food." Li Meng vowed, and said a few more words, the pain came from his ankle, which he was on guard against.

Zhao Luoyi struck quickly and ruthlessly, before Li Meng could scream, the pain had slowly dissipated.

"Walk carefully." Zhao Luoyi said, put on Li Meng's shoes, squatted in front of him, patted his back with his backhand, and signaled Li Meng to come up.

The mountain road is rugged, and the stone stairs are very new, obviously built by people who live in the mountains.

Li Meng was about to doze off, and only then did he see Zhuangzi nestled in the mountainside. The villa was huge, like a crouching dragon dormant in the mountain.

"It's not far from Nanzhou Mansion here. Who purposely lives on the mountain? Is it Master's friend?" Li Meng fell to the ground, his ankle still hurt a little, but he could barely walk by pulling Zhao Luoyi's sleeve.

Zhao Luoyi didn't answer, and walked up the stone steps, a thin rope was hanging from the right side of the door.

Li Meng saw that he didn't knock on the door, but just pulled the string, but there was no reaction.Zhao Luoyi tugged again.

Footsteps came from inside the door, and an impatient face appeared in the Zhumen, with slender eyes and the appearance of a handsome and thin playboy.

"Who are you looking for?" When the man asked the question, he had assumed the posture of closing the door immediately.

"Give this to your master."

Li Meng saw that Zhao Luoyi took out something from his bosom, which looked like a jade pendant, but it was not hung on his waist, but carried in his bosom.

"What is this..." The man met Zhao Luoyi's eyes, impatiently filled with fear, "Understood, you wait here, I'll ask. Don't destroy every plant and tree here casually." That vigilant look seemed a little afraid that Zhao Luoyi would wreak havoc in front of the door if he didn't see anyone.

The ancient characters on the plaque at the gate of the villa read "Idle People's Habitat". Li Meng sat and rested on the big rock beside him, while Zhao Luoyi stood upright, standing in front of the gate, as if he had something on his mind.

During this time, Zhao Luoyi turned to look at him, Li Meng hurriedly lowered his head, and when he looked again after a while, Zhao Luoyi had already stood up straight again.

Without waiting too long, the gate of the villa opened.

One of them was wearing a plain white brocade robe, holding the jade pendant that Zhao Luoyi had just given in his hand, and returning it to Zhao Luoyi with both hands.

"This is not a place to talk, please enter the humble house, have a drink or two, and then talk." The man looked up, Li Meng looked at him defensively, the corner of the man's mouth curled up slightly, "Your apprentice?"

Zhao Luoyi gave an indifferent "En", but the other party didn't take it as an offense, and said to Li Meng: "Brother Zhao and the little brother have been exhausted all the way, so I will spare a little wine, and I hope you master and apprentice will not dislike it." The voice was neither humble nor overbearing. No matter what the relationship with Zhao Luoyi is, but Li Meng felt that the speaker was very polite and reminded him of his father who was an official in the court.He just followed behind Zhao Luoyi without making a sound, and his own servants came up to lead the horse and handed over the reins, and Li Meng followed Zhao Luoyi into the door.

Zhao Luoyi casually turned around, seeing Li Meng falling behind, reached out to wrap his arms around him, and kept his hands on his shoulders.

Idlers live in the middle of each step, and the repair is extremely attentive. Even in the bleak winter, it still has the elegant appearance of plum blossoms and the noble bones of pines and cypresses.

There is running water in the village, with a half-cut bamboo as a bridge, it is introduced from nowhere behind the bushes, and finally flows into a large tank. There are several live fish in the tank. When people's shadows are reflected in the water, the fish will shake their heads and wag their tails to hide in the aquatic plants. middle.

The food table is placed in a flower hall, and the plum blossoms in front of the court are in full bloom, both red and white, each in full bloom, and the refreshing fragrance is refreshing.

Li Meng dragged along behind, there were only three of them at the table, he glanced at Zhao Luoyi, and saw Zhao Luoyi patted his side.

Li Meng understood, so he sat beside Zhao Luoyi at the same table.

"It's been a few years, how are the people in Shifang Building?" The man held up the wine glass and drank with Zhao Luoyi.

From Li Meng's point of view, the man treated Zhao Luoyi kindly, but Zhao Luoyi's reaction was flat, still indifferent.

"It's not good." Zhao Luoyi said lightly, "Recently, the landlord is not in good health. We are all outside and no one is looking after him. I don't know how he is doing. Plus the court..." Zhao Luoyi glanced at Li Meng from the corner of his head. He continued: "I want to buy Shifanglou. In the past year, many brothers have been killed or injured, and I have also caused some trouble."

"After leaving Zhong'an, I no longer asked about court affairs."

The man's words confirmed Li Meng's guess, but he had never met this man before, so he didn't know who he was before.

Zhao Luoyi's willingness to say these things in front of her meant that he regarded him as one of his own. Li Meng felt unspeakable gratitude welling up in his heart. He lowered his head, his nose was a little hot, and he took a glass of wine to drink.

"Just one drink." Zhao Luoyi talked to others, but also noticed Li Meng's every move.

Li Meng said "Yes", he didn't want to get drunk here, after all, he would be afraid if he got drunk.

"I won't interfere with the affairs of the imperial court, but you should, you didn't come to me for Shifanglou, what do you need my help for?"

Zhao Luoyi glanced at Li Meng, and said sternly: "I heard that Sun Tianyin is here with you. If you have something to ask him for help, I want to borrow your face."

The man smiled warmly: "He has some friendship with his wife, and the place is quiet. He returned from traveling with his apprentice in autumn. It's already late today, and his apprentice has a bad temper. I'm afraid he doesn't want you to see his master. Why don't we see you tomorrow morning."

Zhao Luoyi nodded, the matter was settled, he and his master drank a few more cups, and went back to the room to clean up.

After dark, the servants in the Zhuangzi delivered the dinner directly to Zhao Luoyi's room.

Li Meng changed his clothes, walked out swaggeringly, stood at the door stretching, took a deep breath, the cold air pierced through his lungs, and immediately felt refreshed.

After the master and apprentice finished their meal, Zhao Luoyi asked someone to bring hot water, took off Li Meng's shoes and socks, and inspected them carefully.

Li Meng didn't know how to eat. Among his peers, he looked thin and thin. The blue blood veins on the back of his feet were hidden under the flesh, which could be seen.

This foot is whiter than a woman's, Zhao Luoyi thought vaguely, and poured water on the back of his apprentice's foot.After washing his feet, he put Li Meng's feet on his lap, wrapped them in a towel and wiped them off, and stuffed them randomly under the quilt.

Li Meng couldn't laugh or cry and struggled out: "I haven't washed my face yet!"

Li Meng rubbed the wrung handkerchief, and heard Zhao Luoyi say: "When I see the doctor tomorrow, what will he ask and what will you answer? There are too many things to say, especially what happened in the building. By the way, He Ruiting was killed." Absolutely not to mention it.”

Li Meng nodded and wiped his hands again.

Zhao Luoyi threw the handkerchief into the basin, thought of something, and said, "He probably wouldn't ask."

"How many days are we going to stay here?" Along the way, almost every inn can only stay for two nights at most, sometimes it's just a tip, only staying for a little more than two days in Qiyang Prefecture is because of New Year's Eve.

Seeing that Li Meng was sleepy, Zhao Luoyi dragged him out of the quilt, took off his robe, and changed into a clean undershirt.Seeing the young man's good skin again, Zhao Luoyi's eyes darkened, and he pressed him into the quilt, tucked the corners on both sides of the quilt, and wrapped Li Meng like a huge cocoon.

"Tomorrow I saw the doctor, and he said to stay for a few days."

Only then did Li Meng realize that he came here to seek medical treatment to get rid of his Gu, and he was a little touched for a moment.

"Sleep peacefully tonight, it's safe here."

Along the way, Li Meng and Zhao Luoyi were used to sleeping, and it was a bit uncomfortable to sleep alone, and he couldn't bear to beg Zhao Luoyi to accompany him, and watched Zhao Luoyi walk out the door, but he couldn't fall asleep.

After a while, there was the sound of splashing water in the courtyard. Li Meng leaned barefoot and peeked through the crack of the door, and saw Zhao Luoyi washing the clothes they had changed.

Li Meng sneaked back onto the bed again, and soon fell into a deep sleep when he heard the sound of clothes being pounded.

☆, Gu worm

After leaving Zhong'an City, it was the first time for Li Meng to sleep comfortably for such a long time. It was already noon when he woke up, and after having dinner with Zhao Luoyi, someone came to invite them.

Before going out, Zhao Luoyi looked back at Li Meng's messy hair, and called over to tie it up again.

The Zhuangzi where idlers live is very large, entrenched in the middle of the mountain, and the houses are row upon row, occupying a large area of ​​the mountain in an orderly manner. There are often rugged and narrow stone roads between the towering walls.

"In front is the North Courtyard where Mr. Sun lives. My wife told me that Mr. Sun likes to be quiet. He usually doesn't let his servants disturb him. Except for three meals, his disciples serve him before and after." , but Mr. Sun's apprentice is more difficult to serve than Mr. Sun, and his temper is very weird."

"What kind of strange method?" Li Meng asked curiously.

"As long as someone gets too close to Mr. Sun, his apprentice will beat him. There used to be a patient who didn't understand the rules, and he threw him out of the Zhuangzi in the middle of the night."

Zhao Luoyi snorted coldly: "Which hand he dares to throw us out, I'll take his hand and go back to make wine."

"..." Li Meng hurriedly apologized, "My master was joking, he wouldn't do that."

With lingering fears in his heart, the servant looked suspiciously at Zhao Luoyi, and inadvertently saw the tattoo on Zhao Luoyi's tiger's mouth. He took the two of them outside the gate of the North Courtyard, and hurriedly said goodbye and left.

Li Meng stepped into the yard, then backed away, looked at Zhao Luoyi, and said very seriously: "Master, can you promise me one thing?"

Zhao Luoyi raised her eyebrows, motioning for him to say.

"I'll see Mr. Sun later, can you be more polite to him?"

"I have always been polite and respectful to others." Zhao Luoyi said.

Li Meng couldn't help but smile wryly, think about it or forget it, Zhao Luoyi has traveled the rivers and lakes for many years, and has suffered more knives than himself, as if he has never really hurt anyone.He knew very well that a person with absolute force like Zhao Luoyi didn't need to give face to anyone unless necessary.

Jianghu is different from Chaotang, here is a place that pays attention to strength.

"Don't worry, we still have to ask him." Zhao Luoyi rubbed Li Meng's head reassuringly, and looked around while walking into the yard.

There is a faint smell of medicine floating in the air.

Through a path lined with bluegrass, enter the atrium, and a huge alchemy furnace stands in the open space.A young man in a half-worn indigo cotton robe was cleaning the alchemy stove. He must be Sun Tianyin's apprentice. Just as Li Meng was about to make a sound, the young man had already heard the sound. He turned his face and gave them a hostile look, without saying a word. , but pursed his lips in displeasure.

Li Meng recognized at a glance that it was the person who went up the mountain to open the door for them yesterday.

But the clothes he wore were very good yesterday, but today he looks like a boy doing odd jobs.

"Is Xiongtai Mr. Sun's apprentice? Mr. Sun sent someone to call us over. I think we will be free today, so please introduce me to Xiongtai." Li Meng raised his voice.

Zhao Luoyi frowned.

The young man wiped the alchemy furnace with a sullen head, completely ignoring it.

Li Meng couldn't help but blushed, and glanced at Zhao Luoyi, Zhao Luoyi stroked his short sword with two fingers.

Li Meng wanted to ask again, when a door creaked open, and a man with a smile on his brows and an extraordinary temperament walked out of the door, and said to the young man who was cleaning the alchemy furnace, "Didn't it say that there is a distinguished guest coming today, and I asked you to help me?" As a teacher, why have you learned it for almost three years, and you are still so unruly. Do you want to teach you again, I have tried it in the alchemy room and the flower garden, or should I let you learn the rules on the ridge of the roof."

The young man suddenly stood up, his face flushed red, and he slammed the handkerchief at the man, but the man easily caught it and threw it back, covering the young man's face.

"You two don't need to pay attention to it. I have a violent temper, and I hope you will forgive me for being rude."

Zhao Luoyi was noncommittal, pulled Li Meng over, and followed the man into the house.

Dozens of rows of bookshelves in the house are neatly arranged like giants. The man opened all the windows and said with a smile: "The air here is stagnant and stuffy. People who are not used to the smell of ink will find it stinks."

The man had no decorations on his body, no jade pendant, and his hair was simply dressed with a headband. He was dressed in common clothes, with ordinary cloth shoes under his feet. His face was no more than thirty, but his hair was premature.

"Salute to Mr. Sun."

The vest was pressed against by the scabbard, and Li Meng hurriedly pulled up the lapel of his robe to salute Sun Tianyin.

Sun Tianyin waved his hand: "Since you are Qiande's friend, don't be too polite. My place is very messy. Please feel free to both of you. I don't know which one is my patient."

Zhao Luoyi grabbed Li Meng's wrist, making him stretch out his hand and sit opposite Sun Tianyin.

Sun Tianyin took Li Meng's pulse seriously and asked Zhao Luoyi, "Is this your disciple?"

Zhao Luoyi said "um", carefully observing Sun Tianyin's actions.

Sun Tianyin signaled Li Meng to open his mouth and stick out his tongue. After checking, he let out a long breath, with regret in his eyes: "You are a very obedient apprentice, unlike me, who is like a demon king in the world. Nonsense."

Zhao Luoyi's expression calmed down: "He is carrying a Gu worm, Mr. Wan Wang saved the life of this young disciple."

"Life is safe."

Li Meng just breathed a sigh of relief, and then heard Sun Tianyin say: "But I can confirm my guess after I let the insect bite him. I hope I am wrong, otherwise there will be some trouble."

"Mister, please save him." Zhao Luoyi said forcefully.

"How easy it is to save someone's breath."

"It must be all tails." Zhao Luoyi insisted.

Sun Tianyin didn't promise immediately, which made Li Meng a little worried, so much so that he didn't feel scared when Sun Tianyin caught a bug from the black tripod, anyway, it wasn't the first time he was bitten.

It was a small white bug, at first glance, it looked like a grain of rice.

"Let this little thing find the way." Sun Tianyin frowned when he smiled, like a good gentleman.

Li Meng is kind-hearted, but Zhao Luoyi is very concerned about Sun Tianyin's every move. He knows that this is the "poison king" who claims to be able to cure and control the world's strange poisons. It may be faster to kill people than to use a knife.

"There is no master in the world who is not protecting your weaknesses. I understand you, but I have raised this Gu worm for ten years, and I have to listen to its judgment. Don't worry." Sun Tianyin said with a smile. Li Meng drew a cut with his index finger.

The chubby bug was pretending to be dead, but when it smelled blood, it plunged into Li Meng's wound without hesitation.

Someone came in with tea, Li Meng turned his head away, seeing that it was the young man just now, he wanted to politely accept the tea and thank him.

Sun Tianyin grabbed Li Meng's hand, "Don't move, it won't know the way out later."

The teacup was heavily pestered in front of Zhao Luoyi's eyes. The young man raised the teacup aloft, went to Sun Tianyin, gave him a vicious look, and finally put down the teacup lightly.

The young man on the front foot went out, and Li Meng on the back foot couldn't help asking: "Mr. Sun's excellent medical skills are known to everyone in the world. Presumably the little brother just now is also very good, right?"

Sun Tianyin laughed.

"His apprentice is older than you, and you still call him a little brother, and his apprentice is just as powerful. Don't drink tea." Zhao Luoyi said.

Seeing that Li Meng was staring at her, Zhao Luoyi said again: "Seeing that you are depressed, you are just talking casually. Even if it is true that the tea is poisonous, with his master around, the medicine will not be able to cure us."

A bag the size of a grain of rice moved from the tip of Li Meng's index finger towards his arm. It was probably the worm just now. Li Meng tried not to look at it. When he saw Sun Tianyin's eyes brighten, he realized that the worm had arrived. The elbow joint touches the red line, and when touched, it turns around, and when it comes out, it squirms faster, almost running for life.

Li Meng was so amazed that he forgot to be disgusted.

Sun Tianyin caught the bug with a bowl full of clear water, the blood quickly spread in the water, and after it dissipated, Sun Tianyin pinched out the immobile bug.

The white worm turned into a flower worm, with endless gray silk patterns lingering in its black skin.

"This is..." Li Meng was so shocked that he couldn't speak clearly, "What is this?"

Sun Tianyin, who had a smile on his face, didn't look so relaxed at this moment. He glanced at Zhao Luoyi and asked, "Who did you meet?"

"People from the rivers and lakes." Zhao Luoyi obviously didn't intend to tell the truth, his expression revealed his distrust of Sun Tianyin.

"The person who played Gu is surnamed Sun?"

Li Meng didn't care to look at Zhao Luoyi's face, and nodded quickly, "They call him Old Man Sun, he looks very old, seven or eighty years old, below the waist, without legs."

For a moment, Sun Tianyin seemed to be brought back to a distant memory, the bug was put back into the water, Sun Tianyin came back to his senses, took another medicine bottle, poured out a kind of thick green juice, and put the weakly struggling Put the worms in and close the lid.

"Will I die?" Li Meng asked worriedly.

Zhao Luoyi also stared at Sun Tianyin, with his hands on the scabbard.

"As I said just now, life is safe. But to pull it out, you need to do some preparations, and you have to send someone to do the materials. This kind of Gu worm is rarely raised, and it will not be able to attract the Gu worm immediately. Come out. Do you master and apprentice have other things to do?"

"Yes." Zhao Luoyi said lightly, "He can stay."

"I don't want to stay." Li Meng said.

Zhao Luoyi looked at Li Meng for a long time, and seemed to have other considerations in his heart. This kind of gaze made Li Meng feel uncomfortable, as if he was a commodity up for sale. Zhao Luoyi was weighing whether it would be inconvenient to carry him, or, He still doesn't trust himself a little.

"How many days?" Zhao Luoyi turned to Sun Tianyin.

"Quickly, you can do it in three days. After pulling out the Gu worms, you may feel dizzy. It's best to rest for half a day and leave the next day." Sun Tianyin said.

Zhao Luoyi thought for a while in silence, held the sword and stood up: "Then listen to Mr. Sun and do this first."

After watching his master and apprentice go out, Sun Tianyin's apprentice Jiang Shu immediately called Qingshui, stared at him displeasedly, and said coldly: "Roll up your sleeves."

Sun Tianyin was in a heavy heart, but when he saw his apprentice, he couldn't help but twitched his lips.

"Your problem, when will you be able to restrain it." Having said that, Sun Tianyin followed Jiang Shu's wishes and cleaned his hands carefully.

"I don't like you smelling like someone else." Jiang Shu vigorously rubbed Sun Tianyin's hands with grease.

After Li Meng and Zhao Luoyi returned to their room, they saw that Li Meng was trembling a little and didn't speak much. He thought he was sick, so he couldn't be happy.Zhao Luoyi went out and found a brazier, and asked him to sit on it and warm his hands.The bed was a bit high, and Li Meng was considered short among his peers, and was often teased by Shufeng in Shifang Building.

Zhao Luoyi saw his feet dangling in the air, warming himself by the fire with a dazed expression, his tender face was illuminated by the red charcoal fire.

Two sweet potatoes were dug out from a large cloth bag brought from the kitchen and thrown into the charcoal basin.

Li Meng was awakened by Huo Huo Zi, and the tongs were handed to him.

"It's delicious when baked."

In the distant Zhong'an City, in the cold winter months, there are people selling sugar-fried chestnuts and roasted sweet potatoes all over the street, and the air is full of sweetness.Li Meng thought vaguely, he was naturally happy to be able to pull out the Gu, but what should he do next?His current three-legged cat kung fu, not to mention assassinating the emperor, is not even up to the task in the building.Zhao Luoyi has never intended to teach him martial arts, every time he wanted to mention it, he felt that Zhao Luoyi was a deep-minded person, he might have some plans, maybe the time would not come.At some point, Li Meng had established a deep trust with Zhao Luoyi.

But when he thought that Zhao Luoyi would not trust him so much because of the past, he couldn't help feeling a little depressed.

Zhao Luoyi didn't come out from the room, and Li Meng was there to warm up the fire. When the sweet potatoes were ripe, he picked them on a plate and slid off the bed.

Seeing Li Meng approaching, Zhao Luoyi immediately covered what he was writing with another piece of paper.

Li Meng looked sad: "Master, one for each person."

The sweet potato is torn apart by the dry skin, and the sweetness overflows immediately, which makes people feel warm.

Li Meng couldn't help but glance at the stack of papers that were pressed by the paperweight. They were not the long scrolls used for practice, nor were they letterheads, they were similar in size to books.

Zhao Luoyi finished eating the sweet potatoes in two or three bites, threw the skins into the plate, waved Li Meng out, and said: "If you want to rest, you can rest outside. Don't bother me before dinner."

Walking to the door, Li Meng glanced back at Zhao Luoyi again, seeing him scratching his ears and scratching his cheeks with a headache, which was much more interesting than his usual cold appearance.

Zhao Luoyi stared at him, sat upright, and said indifferently: "Go out, and meditate as a teacher."

Zhao Luoyi seemed exhausted that night, and for dinner he ate three big bowls of rice with peas and bacon, half a rabbit wrapped in silk, and a lot of side dishes.A servant brought a jar of wine and said: "My wife made green plum wine last year, buried it under the plum tree, and waited for it to be enjoyed in the winter. .”

The tiny flames licked the bottom of the stove, and Li Meng watched Zhao Luoyi drink after drink.

Zhao Luoyi leaned over, glanced at the bottom of the wine, filled another glass, and handed it out to the disappointed Li Meng.

Li Meng was overjoyed: "For me?"

A faint smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Luoyi's mouth. Li Meng took it carefully with both hands. The cup was so small that he could drink it up in one gulp. lips.

"Stop looking, it's gone."

After drinking and eating, Zhao Luoyi was already too sleepy because of writing and drawing all afternoon, and it was too much trouble for a martial artist to do this.

Li Meng poked his head at the door, seeing his master fell asleep, and didn't go in right away. After waiting for a while, Li Meng guessed that Zhao Luoyi must have fallen asleep, so he tiptoed to the bed and slipped into his bed.

In the darkness, the corners of Zhao Luoyi's mouth curled up, and he coughed solemnly.

Li Meng was so frightened that he rolled half of his body under the bed, grabbed the edge of the bed, and dared to touch Zhao Luoyi's eyes, but he couldn't get it right, which scared him enough. After making sure that Zhao Luoyi hadn't woken up, he looked like a cat again She shrank closer to Zhao Luoyi's side, taking advantage of the heat from Zhao Luoyi's body to sleep a little more comfortably, then closed her eyes nervously.

In the middle of the night, Li Meng felt his body was hot, only to realize that Zhao Luoyi put his arms around him, and the two of them were next to each other, warm and comfortable.Li Meng stretched his hand out of the quilt, feeling more comfortable and wanting to sigh.In the darkness, Li Meng turned his head to peek at Zhao Luoyi's side face, the outline was like a blade, sharp and domineering.

The towering nose is like a distant mountain that is always interesting no matter how you look at it.Zhao Luoyi's lips are not thin, but the lines are as sharp as a knife, very hard.Li Meng unconsciously reached out and touched Zhao Luoyi's nose, it was cool, and touched Zhao Luoyi's chin, too busy recently, Master didn't have time to shave, the beard stubble was scraping in the palm of Li Meng, it was a kind of useless Words describe the intimacy.Li Meng touched Zhao Luoyi's Adam's apple again as if in a daze, and just as he was feeling vigorously, his Adam's apple suddenly moved.

"..." Li Meng's mind went blank, how to explain how to explain how to explain that he was not sleeping in the middle of the night and was groping his master blindly!In a panic, he had to close his eyes tightly and stiffen his body.

After a while, without hearing a single sound, Li Meng fell asleep because he was too nervous.

The next day, they were ordered by the North Court to move them to live in the North Court.

"Mr. Sun said that it is better to ask the young master to go and have a look at it anytime. He still has some uncertainties. It would be best if he can see and hear close by." The servant said respectfully.

Originally, the master and the apprentice didn't have any luggage, and after half a day's work, they were settled properly.Li Meng kept wondering when Sun Tianyin would ask him to ask him questions, so he didn't dare to go out to play and stayed in the house.

But in the afternoon, Zhao Luoyi brought back two books.

"Master also wants to study?" Li Meng had never seen Zhao Luoyi read a book, so he was very curious, but he was even more curious about what he brought back, so he flipped through it casually. One was the Great Qin Fengwuzhi. Because he found it interesting, Li Meng read it twice. Eye, the other didn't notice anything.

Zhao Luoyi walked to the inside, took out a thin booklet with no title from the cover, and stuffed it under the pillow casually.

"I borrowed it from Mr. Sun, so you won't be bored."

Li Meng happily said: "Thank you, Master!" He couldn't wait to read it.

After Zhao Luoyi washed his hands, he wiped his hands by the rack, stood behind Duobaoge, looked at him for a while without attracting Li Meng's attention, his Adam's apple moved up and down, he turned his eyes away, and looked out the window indifferently.

Sun Tianyin's apprentice was in the courtyard outside. On the stone table was a small red clay stove with a jug on it.He turned the pages of the book slowly, and every time he read the gap, he looked up at the room.When I met Zhao Luoyi's gaze, it was as if I had never seen it before, and I lowered my head to read again.

Zhao Luoyi felt that Sun Tianyin's apprentice was indeed as the people in the village said, it was strange, for example, now, he was blatantly monitoring him and Li Meng.

The author has something to say: The master and apprentice of the Sun family came to make soy sauce【

☆, rainy night

Jiang Shu sat in the yard until evening when he went in to have dinner with Sun Tianyin, and he was still sitting in the yard.Even Li Meng found out, while Zhao Luoyi was writing and drawing in the room again.

Li Meng went out, bent down and picked up a stone.

The candle flickered.

The boy's raised eyes were narrow and long, and his single eyelid revealed a thick indifference, as well as a hint of hostility that seemed to be absent.

"Li Meng."

The young man turned a page of the book leisurely, "Jiang Shu."

Li Meng became happy, and sat down opposite Jiang Shu. Jiang Shu was flipping through an old booklet. Li Meng lay down on the table and asked curiously, "What are you reading?"

"Read books you don't understand." Jiang Shu said.

Li Meng chatted with Jiang Shu for a few more words, but got no response, feeling bored, his eyes wandered around the yard, inadvertently fixed on the door of Sun Tianyin's room, he had only been to that room, and the door was closed tightly Yes, but the lights are on.

"Is this also your master's collection?" Li Meng asked with hidden excitement.

"No."

"Then what is this?"

"Book."

"..." Li Meng pursed his lips, "Do you really hate us?"

Jiang Shu finally raised his eyes and looked directly at Li Meng: "Yes."

"Why? We are not strangers..."

"Hate is hate,
