Ren Xia of the Wandering Rivers and Lakes

At noon, a carriage entered the city and stopped at the entrance of the inn.

The young man driving the car was dressed in luxurious royal blue satin, put down the reins with a pair of fingers like white onions, jumped from above, and landed lightly on the ground.

The boy was born with a face like a lotus, and his appearance was a little coquettish. When he looked at the inn, the passers-by on the street couldn't help looking at him.

This place is a remote small town in the southwest, with simple folk customs, and the inn is not as luxurious as the big cities in the north and south. The young man curled his lips and said softly: "It's okay." Then he turned around and asked his master to get off the carriage rest.

Suddenly, a little beggar appeared out of nowhere and bumped towards him. He was so smelly from the child that he immediately covered his nose and did evil, but after the child ran a certain distance, the young man suddenly came to his senses and immediately went to the hospital. Touching his waist, he realized that he was not paying attention for a moment, and actually asked the other party to take away his purse.

The young man's face darkened, and he pulled out the silver hairpin from his hair with a jade-like hand, raised his hand and the hairpin shot out with the sound of breaking wind, and the target was the head of the little beggar in the distance.

But when the silver hairpin was about to take the little beggar's life, suddenly another person appeared from the side of the street, the hairpin was quick and fierce, but the other person easily intercepted it, deftly defusing the little beggar's death.

The man didn't know where he came from, the young man saw that he was dressed in coarse cloth, with a strange red mask on his face, his figure was slender, and his age could not be seen.

The young man frowned, and then he was about to launch another hidden weapon. Seeing the situation, the other party immediately grabbed the fleeing little beggar, hurriedly turned out the money bag that the little beggar had stolen, together with the silver hairpin shot by the young man, and threw it at the young man. The direction is lost.

Seeing the situation, the young man turned his palm upwards immediately, and then something that seemed to have some strength fell on his palm, gently and softly, without any force as expected.

The boy let out a "Huh", very surprised.Because there is a certain distance between the opponent and him, it is natural to use internal force to throw the object back to his hand.However, if an ordinary warrior brings internal force, when the object returns to his hand, it will carry some internal force, but the man just tossed it casually, and it fell lightly, the skill of internal force is amazing.

The boy squinted at the man with the red face mask, but the other party noticed that the boy was looking at him, then turned into the alley and disappeared without a trace.

When the young man was thinking about whether this person was a threat to them, a few coughs came from the carriage, and then the person inside spoke hoarsely, "Su Di."

Hearing this, the boy immediately stuffed the hairpin and purse into his arms, then rolled up the curtain, and called out to the people in the car in a low and respectful voice: "My lord!"

The young man who was called Su Di changed his indifferent expression, and helped his master get off the carriage with a respectful and submissive expression.

"Why is your hair disheveled?" asked the person who got out of the car.

Su Di recounted what happened just now, and said in confusion: "My lord, there are experts here in this remote place, has our whereabouts been discovered?"

His master said, "Then go and find out."

Su Di pursed his lips, bowed his head and replied: "Yes." But he didn't act immediately.

Su Di followed his master and slowly stepped into the inn.The master's footsteps were a little sloppy, which was caused by an injury a few months ago.

After the two entered the inn, the dining hall suddenly fell silent, and the guests looked at Su Di and his master one by one.

Su Di frowned, first threw a piece of silver to Xiao Er who came up to meet him, and ordered him to pull the carriage outside and put it away, and asked for an upper room, where he cooked a few good dishes and delivered them to the room.

After doing everything for the master first, Su Di immediately turned around and withdrew, and went to investigate the person wearing the red mask just now.

An hour later, Su Di rushed back, but as soon as he opened the door, he saw Xiao Er lying in the room in a slightly abnormal posture, with a deep wound on his neck, but no blood flowed out at all, just staring at him. It was so big that he didn't seem to understand what happened, so he was detained by Hades... no, he was detained by his master.

Su Di looked at the master who was calmly drinking hot tea with a calm expression, closed the door immediately without saying anything, and knelt down at the threshold.

After a while, his master was playing with the poor-quality cups in the inn, turning around and saying, "Clean it up!" Then he picked up a few small dishes to eat, with a calm expression on his face.

When Su Di was thinking about how to deal with such a big person, the master asked, "Has that person been caught?"

Su Di originally wanted to stand up, but when asked, she knelt down again. "My lord, forgive me, Su Di is ineffective."

His master didn't say anything, he didn't even look at Su Di.

Fortunately, it was late now, Su Di pushed open the window, carried the dead Xiaoer and jumped to the flowerbed on the first floor, then ran to the suburbs with light kung fu, found a mountain and threw him into it, then the solution was resolved.

After returning home, I washed my hands first, and then called another waiter to carry hot water to bathe the master.

When the waiter walked into their room carrying hot water, he was taken aback when he saw Su Di, and then he was also taken aback when he saw Liu Changyue. Su Di saw the master's hand move, and tapped a few times with his fingers The table, that was a sign of impatience, so he called out to the waiter: "Hurry up and get the hot water out quickly, your eyes are wandering around, be careful, I'll dig them out!"

Su Di's words were harsh, not as gentle as his handsome appearance, Xiao Er really felt the killing intent, and staggered after filling the water, scared to death.

When the master was bathing and changing clothes, Su Di asked cautiously: "Master, did the waiter at the inn offend the master just now when Su Di was away?"

The person being served just glanced at him, then raised the corners of his lips with a half-smile, and did not speak.

But with just such a glance, Su Di understood that the Xiao Er who was carried away by him should have killed the person in front of him because he displeased the person in front of him.

When wiping the master's black hair after bathing, Su Di looked at the other side's face, which made him a little stunned.

His master is Liu Changyue, the master of the Qingming Pavilion who once terrified the world.

The lord was born with the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix, with a majestic aura, and wearing a good purple silk on his body made him have eyebrows like swords, eyes like stars, incomparably handsome, and extraordinary bearing.

Even though he was seriously injured due to a disaster and lost all martial arts, changed his name and changed his surname and went back to the rivers and lakes, his demeanor was still intact, and his attitude was still graceful, powerful without anger, a natural kingly attitude.

Such a lord, people can't take their eyes off.Su Di couldn't help thinking, even if he died, no one would be able to erase the arrogance brought out from the blood of the Lord.

Even if you lose your martial arts, if you meet someone who is an eyesore, it is still easy to take his life instantly.

Such is the capacity of those whom he serves.

+ + + + +

After staying in the small town for a few days, Su Di knelt at the end of Liu Changyue's bed for a few days.

He should be punished for not chasing the red-faced man; he should be punished for allowing the dead boy to run into the Lord while he was away.

Liu Changyue didn't let Su Di get up and sleep on the chair until the night before they were going to leave, so as not to miss the next trip.

Su Di drove the carriage all the way to the southwest, but Liu Changyue's order was the most important.For the next few days, I will walk on trails to avoid exposure of my whereabouts.However, the passing place is deserted and smoky, and there is no one there, except for wild animals occasionally.The dirt road is uneven and even bumpy.

After walking out of a dark forest, the eyes suddenly opened up and the sky brightened.After seeing the sunshine, Su Di breathed a sigh of relief.

There is a small village outside the forest, where several farm families live.

Not far away is a withered lotus field, and two young men dressed as farmers are talking beside the lotus field.

Su Di thought that there was finally a good way to go when the carriage suddenly shook violently, almost knocking Su Di from his seat.

"Is your lord alright?" Su Di asked immediately.

"It's okay." Liu Changyue coughed twice and asked, "What's the matter?"

This "again" made Su Di feel his heart tremble.But he immediately made up his mind and said, "Return to the Lord, the wheel must have sunk into the pit!"

Then Su Di hit the horse a few times, and the horse neighed a few times and tried to move forward, but it just couldn't move the carriage.

Su Di jumped out of the carriage, and frowned after seeing the situation.How did this hole form? It almost sunk half of the wheel, and the horse couldn't pull it out, and he didn't have that much strength to pull it out.

Su Di was a little anxious, he looked around, and then looked towards the farmhouse, thinking that maybe he could ask a few countrymen to come out and lift the carriage together to solve this problem.

Just as Su Di thought so, a young man sitting by the lotus field with some lotus roots beside him saw his plight.

When Su Di saw the young man, he was startled at first, because he had a very good life, with a soft and handsome face like white jade, black silk tied with a golden rope, and two bright yellow tassels swaying in the wind, but when he looked down, he saw a beautiful face on the other side's body. But he was wearing ordinary farm clothes. Compared with the young man's good manners, the clothes were completely out of place.

The young man turned his head and called out to the lotus field, Su Di vaguely heard him call: "Xiao Jiu!"

Following Liantian Mizujian, a young man dressed as a villager suddenly appeared.This time, this young man was not as well-born as the first one, he just looked ordinary, with only his nose, eyes, ears and mouth on his face, neither ugly nor good-looking.

The handsome young man bowed his head and said something to the young man in the water. The man in the water nodded, then got up from the water neatly, dropped the lotus root with mud in his hand, and walked towards them.

The facial features of the young man who came were ordinary, and the only thing that made people feel comfortable was a pair of big shiny black eyes, and a simple smile that looked comfortable at the corner of his mouth.

"Brother said he wanted me to take a look. What's the matter with you guys?" The plain-looking young man trotted up to them, his voice clear and hearty, with a rare feeling of gold and jade striking each other.But because his body was dripping with the smell of stagnant water in the lotus fields, as he came, a smell of water immediately made Su Di cover his mouth and nose.

"The wheels are stuck in the mud!" Su Di held his breath and said, "Stay away from me, it stinks!"

The young man smiled and didn't care about what Su Di said behind him.After casually looking at the carriage, he suddenly lifted a short piece of wood protruding from the back of the carriage with one hand, and then with Su Di's expression of astonishment, he easily lifted the carriage from the mud pit and moved it aside to compare flat road.

Su Di was dumbfounded, originally thinking about how this man is so strong, but then suddenly realized that the master was in the carriage, and then said angrily: "You are rude and reckless, my master is still in the car. Lift up the car without saying anything, what if you hurt my lord?"

"Damn, bastard, bad thing!" Su Di was still young, so he only learned these few words to swear.

The young man didn't care that he was scolded for offering to help, he smiled at Su Di, and then ran back to another young man in Liantian.

Su Di saw that ordinary young man tied up the dug up lotus root with a straw rope, and then carried the handsome young man on his back. Then, holding the lotus root, he walked slowly back to the farmhouse step by step.

Su Di frowned, thinking that the man had no temper or had cultivated himself well, and he didn't even respond to being scolded by him like this.

When Su Di turned his head to go back to drive, he saw his master raised the corner of the car curtain and looked at the two people walking by the lotus field.

The ordinary young man seemed to have noticed that someone was looking at him, and when he turned around, he happened to meet Liu Changyue's eyes.

The young man smiled, with crooked eyes, an ordinary and natural smile, a natural and honest breath, and a pair of best-born eyes that are as bright as lacquer, making people look ordinary, but extraordinary.

"Master!" Su Di was startled.

Liu Changyue looked at the man steadily.He suddenly remembered how long he hadn't seen this kind of smile, a smile without any impurities, pure and innocent.

"The child lifted the carriage by himself?" Liu Changyue asked lightly.

"Yes!" Su Di answered with bowed head.

At this time, the handsome young man who was being carried on his back also turned his head to look at them. Liu Changyue's eyes changed again when he saw the young man's appearance, and Su Di's scalp began to tingle when he saw his master's expression.

The master must be interested in those two villagers...

That's a villager, a villager!

+ + + + +

The carriage stopped in front of the simple courtyard of the farmhouse. Su Di was standing at the half-open door before he knocked on the door, when he heard a soft voice inside shouting: "Hurry up and change your clothes! It's cold in the fields in November. Be careful of catching the cold."

Su Di heard the voice and guessed that it should be that handsome young man.

Then another crisp voice said, "I'm not afraid of the cold, the water will dry up as soon as it evaporates."

Steam it, what does that mean?Su Di frowned, and knocked on the gate of the courtyard.

"Here, who is it?" With the sound of footsteps, the door was quickly opened.

The person who came was the ordinary young man.Seeing that it was Su Di, the young man's big eyes were full of doubts, and he immediately said, "Little sister, is there anything else?"

little sister?Su Di almost didn't scold when he heard this word, but because the master in the carriage seemed to have a crush on these two, Su Di held back his anger, twisted his smile and said, "Which eye of yours sees that I look like a little sister? "

The young man tried his best to scan Su Di from top to bottom several times before realizing it: "Ah, so you are the little brother! Then, little brother, do you have anything else to do?"

The corners of Su Di's mouth twitched, and said: "My master and I have been traveling for a few days without taking a break. I don't know if brother can make it easier for us to stay overnight..."

After Su Di finished speaking, he saw the young man with a big smile, opened the door wide and said, "In this case, you must be hungry and tired! My brother and I were the same when we first came here. Come in quickly, This house is not ours, but He Bo's, but He Bo has gone to the town to sell lotus roots, and he will come back in a few days."

Su Di looked at the young man suspiciously, thinking that since it is not his own place, why is he so accommodating to entertain outsiders.But he still thanked him, turned around and lifted the curtain, and waited respectfully for the master to get off the carriage.

Liu Changyue got off her horse, stood firm, and slowly raised her head, the young man who opened the door was stunned.

Although Liu Changyue is in his thirties this year, his never-ending martial arts career makes him look like a man in his thirties.Coupled with the intimidating demeanor in his gestures, the young man felt that this man would take people's souls away, and he couldn't get back to his senses for a moment.

Su Di snorted and thought to himself: "I'm just an idiot, I've never seen such a handsome man like my master!"Look again, look again, if you make my master impatient, you don't have to do anything, I'd be more than happy to slit your throat. 』

Liu Changyue originally kept his expression on his face, but seeing the young man staring straight at him, his black pupils were big and clear, but his expression was stunned and dumbfounded, and the corners of his mouth curled up for a moment.

Liu Changyue was not laughing at the young man's ignorance of the rules, but felt that such innocence made him amusing.

How could such a strange person exist in this filthy world?

"Hey, idiot, what are you doing looking at my lord? Shouldn't you invite us to sit in?" Su Di felt very displeased with this ordinary young man.Especially the Lord smiled at him.Why is this guy!With those big and small pockmarks on his face?

The young man came back to his senses, scratched his head in embarrassment, and said, "You are his master? I heard you coughing, and thought you should be 50 or [-] years old. I didn't expect you to be so young!"

Su Di felt that the young man's words were really rude. After hearing these words, the Lord must be angry at the moment, so when he was about to teach him a lesson, he suddenly heard the Lord ask in a neutral voice:

"Did you hear my cough?"

The young man nodded and said, "Come in quickly, I don't think it's cold, but my brother said it's cold, and you'll catch the cold if you stay outside for too long." Then he turned around and ran into the house, shouting as he ran:

"Brother, do you know where the rest of the stove is?"

Although the behavior of the young people seems to be unruly and a little less measured, it is a genuine and straightforward performance.

The handsome young man in the room whom he called his elder brother glanced at Su Di and Liu Changyue, and said, "There seem to be two more in Uncle He's room, go find them."

"Oh." The young man with an ordinary face responded, and the figure flashed, and he disappeared.

Only then did Su Di realize that the young man seemed to have Wu in his body.Seeing Liu Changyue walk into the room without any hesitation, he bowed his head obediently and followed his master into the room.

Liu Changyue glanced at the hall, and saw that the decorations around were poor, and the table in the hall was so small that it could barely accommodate four people, and the corner of the table was lame, and the bottom was supported by bricks.

It's just strange that in such a messy and simple house, there are two spiritual people living suddenly.

Liu Changyue sat down, and Su Di waited beside him.

As soon as Liu Changyue sat down, an oppressive aura emanated from his body, but the expression of the handsome young man who faced him also turned cold, just like Liu Changyue, exuding an icy aura of not getting close to strangers.

Liu Changyue asked, "Your surname?"

The other party looked up at him, and said lightly: "They are just passers-by who just met by chance, so why ask for their names."

Su Di who was standing beside him couldn't help roaring in his heart at this moment: "Ruthless, rude people!This guy is ten times more rude than that brat just now! 』

At this time, the young man with an ordinary face finally appeared.As soon as he returned to the living room, he put two small red clay stoves on the table, then threw a few pieces of black charcoal and hay into them, and knocked the flints with a crackling sound, and the fire started immediately.

Liu Changyue's face was calm, and she was not angry because of the behavior of the young man opposite.

Later, Liu Changyue saw the young man with an ordinary face light up a small fire, put his hands one by one on the side of the red clay stove, and then stimulated his internal force to instantly turn the small fire into a big fire, which was very interesting.

Su Di was taken aback, and intuitively felt that this ordinary young man turned out to have such deep inner strength.Immediately, I thought, who are the two people in front of me?Is it related to the red-faced people who followed them before?Do you want to take the Lord up immediately and so on.

The handsome young man said while drinking tea, "Your hair is still dripping."

"Ah, oh!" The person who was said just remembered that his body was still wet, so he took the same way as the phrase "steaming" just now, and used the internal force in the body. After a few cycles, the whole body appeared. The dense steam, followed by the whole body is dry.

Su Di was surprised again.How many years does he have to practice this internal strength before he can keep pace with this humble "village man" in front of him! ?

Liu Changyue went on to show that he was more interested in the ordinary-faced youth than the iceberg-beautiful youth. When the ordinary youth put the stove in front of Liu Changyue, the position was neither close nor far away, just enough to let his blood-blocked and cold palm after injury When she got warm, Liu Changyue said:

"What's your name?"

"Ah? Me?" The young man put another clay oven at his brother's feet, raised his head in doubt, but still said:

"My name is Xiao Jiu."

Little Nine! ?

This distant and dusty name came out of the young man's mouth inadvertently, Liu Changyue's face changed slightly, and he clenched the cup in his hand.

Su Di became tense when he noticed the change in his master.

"Why is it called Xiao Jiu?" Liu Changyue's voice was flat and emotionless.The favor towards this young man just now almost completely dissipated when he heard Xiao Jiu's name.

Almost all the people who knew the name back then were dead, and only a few people left who knew what Xiao Jiu, the puppy that he raised with his own hands for two years, meant to him.

Liu Changyue guessed whether these two people came to intercept and kill him, but his whereabouts were secretive, and he released the news of his death more than half a year ago. Unless there was a traitor, no one in the world would know about Liu, the head of the Qingming Pavilion. The thing about Nagatsuki being alive.

Everyone in the room had their own precautions. The handsome young man stared at Liu Changyue coldly with his icy eyes, but the young man named Xiao Jiu turned his head back and forth between the two, knowing that something was wrong. But understand what happened.

There is also Su Di, even the hidden weapon is caught at the fingertips, although it is hidden, Xiao Jiu can see it.

Facing such a scene, Xiao Jiu had no fear, but said suspiciously: "Maybe I wasn't called Xiao Jiu before, but now I am called Xiao Jiu. This name was chosen by my brother, because I have a plaque made of ebony engraved on it. nine characters, so my brother called me Xiao Jiu."

Xiao Jiu's explanation was confusing. Liu Changyue looked at him with a cold gaze, but Xiao Jiu didn't feel scared, and just continued to talk in a chatty tone: "Actually, I don't remember the past. My brother said, I fell into a wild boar trap to save him and hit my head, because I fell too hard and hit too hard, so I broke my head and forgot all about it.”

After finishing speaking, he pushed his hair back, revealing the big swollen bump on his forehead. "Look, it's still swollen!" He said, "Uncle He asked the doctor to look at it for me. He said that if ordinary people fall like this, their brains will be broken. But I'm fine, my head is hard, so I saved my life." return."

Liu Changyue heard a clue. "Aren't you brothers?"

"Hey, how do you know?" Xiao Jiu showed a surprised expression.

Liu Changyue didn't say anything, but the condensed atmosphere around him eased a bit, however, the handsome young man was still staring at him.

"Then uncle, what's your name?" Xiao Jiu asked.His expression was innocent, he didn't beat around the bush, he asked whatever he was thinking about.

Liu Changyue paused and said, "My surname is Yue Mingzang."

Xiao Jiu then said happily: "Hi, Uncle Da Yue, I'm Xiao Jiu, this is my sworn brother, called Mao Xing. The Mao of Ziwu Yinmao, the star of the stars. It sounds nice, right!"

"What about your nine?" Liu Changyue said suddenly.

"Just three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine!" After saying that, Xiao Jiu thought it was funny and laughed.

Liu Changyue looked at him and smiled, the heavy lock in her heart suddenly loosened, causing waves.

Mao Xing, who had been observing Liu Changyue, frowned because of the slight change in Liu Changyue's expression.

Xiao Jiu asked again: "When I said that my name is Xiao Jiu, why were you angry?"

Liu Changyue said, "You can feel my anger?"

Xiaojiu let out an "um" and nodded her head emphatically.

Liu Changyue took a sip of tea, paused for a moment, and then said lightly, "I had a dog before, and it was called Xiao Jiu."

"What now?" Xiao Jiu asked again.

"Dead." Liu Changyue said these two words lightly.

"Then uncle, you must be very sad." Xiao Jiu said.

"How can you tell I'm sad. It's just a dog."

Xiao Jiu stared at Liu Changyue with regretful eyes. "You must like it very much, so you will be angry when you hear someone with the same name as it."

At this time, after hearing the Lord being called uncle twice in a row, Su Di couldn't help but said angrily: "You rude person! Your brother is rude, and you are also rude! You actually called my Lord 'Uncle', The Lord's precious body, how can I be an uncle!"

"What should I call you if I don't call you uncle?" Xiao Jiu looked at Su Di suspiciously and asked for advice.

"Big brother... um..." It's not enough to call big brother... Su Di lowered his head and thought deeply.

Liu Changyue had a strange feeling in her heart. This ordinary young man said he was innocent, but he was not. At least he could understand what he was thinking under his seemingly aggressive personality. No one has ever had.

Liu Changyue looked at Xiao Jiu, looking for another Xiao Jiu's shadow on him.Of course, he doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, and he doesn't think that Xiao Jiu has been reincarnated and returned to him.

Xiao Jiu watched his younger brother who was as beautiful as the girl lose his temper, stood up and patted his head, and said, "Don't lose your temper casually, kid, you won't grow taller if you lose your temper!"

"I heard you talking nonsense!" Su Di held the hidden weapon in his hand and wanted to shoot at Xiao Jiu.

Liu Changyue coughed.

Hearing this, Su Di hurriedly took back the hidden weapon he was about to release, but accidentally cut his palm, and the pain was so painful that he was about to shed tears.

Xiao Jiu heard Liu Changyue coughing, and thought he would still be cold, so he ran into the room and took two thicker padded jackets out.One was handed to Liu Changyue, and the other was placed on Mao Xing's handicapped leg.

Xiao Jiu said to Liu Changyue: "After talking so much, I forgot to ask you if you were hungry. Before He went out, he steamed a basket of steamed buns for us to eat. Although they are a bit hard now, they can still be eaten with hot tea. Food, do you want to eat?"

Su Di thought in his heart how his superior master could eat that kind of pig food, and was about to speak, but met Shang Maoxing's beautiful eyes.Su Di's appearance has always been admirable, although there is a little femininity, but when he raises his eyebrows and draws his lips, his peerless and enchanting appearance can definitely make a group of people look stupid.

It's just that the young man named Mao Xing in front of him is handsome and clear, with soft brows and eyes like clear streams. Looking at his cold eyes, Su Di suddenly felt that he couldn't compare with him at all.

Su Di knew that this person was of the same status as his master.Noble and graceful, unattainable and powerful, just sitting there quietly can make people unable to breathe.

Liu Changyue would not eat the steamed buns made of tea in Xiaojiu's mouth. He was always tricky and would not treat himself badly, so he told Su Di: "Go and bring in the dry food from the carriage."

"Yes." Su Di answered and walked out the door.

After Liu Changyue glanced at Mao Xing, she said to Xiao Jiu: "So, the two of you have only known each other for a few days."

Xiao Jiu nodded.

Liu Changyue still wanted to talk, but Mao Xing rarely spoke. "Even so, it doesn't make any difference. Xiaojiu treats me like my own brother and my savior. I have long regarded him as my own younger brother."

Mao Xing saw that Liu Changyue seemed to be thinking about Xiao Jiu, so he spoke like this.

Xiao Jiu was pouring tea for herself, when she heard what Mao Xing said, she called again with a smile on her face: "Brother."

Mao Xing laughed because of this brother.A smile rippled on his otherworldly and beautiful face, and Liu Changyue's eyes deepened because of his beauty.

But Liu Changyue immediately shifted his gaze to Xiao Jiu again, and asked, "How did your brother fall into the trap? How did you fall into it too?"

Xiao Jiu said: "Oh, I don't know the ins and outs, but my brother has told me about those things." He took a sip of water and said:

"My brother was originally traveling with his family, but because of the fog in the big black forest in front of him for many days, he accidentally got separated from his family. My brother was originally in a wheelchair, but he fell into a boar hunting trap. The wheelchair was broken just like that, and it was still trapped in it for most of the night.

My brother said that when I found him, I jumped down to save him, but it was raining that day, and the muddy ground was so slippery that I didn't step on my head and fell in, and even smashed a big rock in the trap.When I woke up, I forgot everything.

At that time my brother asked me if I could carry him up, so I carried him up.Later, when we went out of the woods and met Uncle He, Uncle He took us in and asked a doctor to treat us. In order to repay his kindness, my brother and I stayed temporarily and went into the water to dig lotus roots for him and help him with some work. So that he can take the lotus root to the town to sell. "

Xiao Jiu confessed all his wealth in one go, but unexpectedly, because of this, the way Liu Changyue looked at him was a little intriguing.

Su Di brought in the dry food, and respectfully unwrapped the high-quality cloth.

As soon as the fabric was untied, the three-layer lacquered wooden box was opened, and Xiao Jiu let out a "wow" and widened her eyes.

Liu Changyue's so-called dry food is some exquisite southern snacks, both salty and sweet, some are made into delicate flowers, which smell amazing, and some are ordinary pastries, which look delicious Makes people drool.

Xiao Jiu looked at Liu Changyue, blinking her eyes.

"Let's eat!" Liu Changyue raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

Maoxing frowned.Looking at this appearance, Xiao Jiu was defenseless against the opponent.What a bad temper.

"Uncle, you like to eat sweets!" Xiao Jiu said.

Liu Changyue said, "Don't call me uncle."

"What do you want to call it?" Xiao Jiu took a light red flower and a purple square snack and stuffed it into her mouth, chewed a few mouthfuls, nodded, and reached out to take two more flowers.

Liu Changyue also took a shortbread box to eat, but did not reply to Xiao Jiu's words.

Xiao Jiu felt that Mao Xing should also be asked to taste these exquisite dim sum, but as soon as Mao Xing met his eyes, he said lightly: "No matter how much sweets you eat, you don't care if you are full. You should soak a few steamed buns later. To save me from being woken up by my stomach gurgling again at night. Also, make one for me along the way, I don’t like sweets.”

Xiao Jiu nodded again, and said to Liu Changyue, "Brother is angry!" Then, regardless of whether the person involved was still present, he picked a few flowers of different colors and chewed them.

The flowers are made of sugar and flour, and they are pinched so that they look like real ones.But it was gone in one bite, and Xiao Jiu felt it was a pity while eating.

+ + + + +

In the evening, Xiao Jiu gave Uncle He's room to Liu Changyue and Su Di. As soon as Su Di entered the master's room, he disliked the smell in the house, so he sprinkled some colorless powder in the room, which smelled like spring All the flowers are so fragrant.

Then Xiao Jiu went back to Uncle He's son's room.

When Xiao Jiu came in, Mao Xing was sitting on the edge of the bed thinking about something.Mao Xing's feet were hanging limply. Mao Xing said that it was a disease brought on by his mother's womb, and no clever doctor could cure him. He was doomed to have to rely on a wheelchair to walk in his life, unable to run or jump.

Xiao Jiu was also sad when he saw it at first, but later he saw that Mao Xing didn't care about his disability. If Mao Xing didn't care, then it was wrong for him to care.So he didn't allow himself to be sad.

Xiao Jiu held a basin of hot water and asked Mao Xing to wash his hands and face. Mao Xing let out a sigh of relief, and his expression was a little more relaxed than when he faced Liu Changyue just now.

"Are you going to sleep?" Xiao Jiu asked after packing up.

Maoxing nodded.

Xiao Jiu put the live clay stove beside the bed, and Mao Xing moved his feet to the bed with his hands, laying back and pulling up the quilt to rest.

There was a place in the back of the bed, which was reserved for Xiao Jiu, but before it was time for Xiao Jiu to sleep, she just extinguished the candle in the room and closed the door for Mao Xing.

With his hands behind his back, he stomped in the narrow room.

He believed in the wrong person and destroyed its foundation once.When he was ten years old that year, he shouldered all these burdens, swore revenge with the remaining dead soldiers, and slowly and meticulously rebuilt another new Qingming Pavilion.

For revenge, for the endless stinking blood and the bones of relatives in the dark corridor and the darkened hall, they tried their best to absorb all forces to strengthen the collapsed Qingming Pavilion.

He met Vanity at the master banquet of Vanity Palace when he was 15 years old.A beautiful girl who is one year older than him, has a huge power behind her and a shield of gold and silver, is extraordinary and beautiful.

He tried his best to deceive her heart and married her. She thought he loved her, but when she was 17 years old, he hollowed out the foundation of the Vanity Palace, took away her subordinates and counted in the underground palace of the Vanity Palace. The endless gold and silver treasures were taken for her own use, and she was abandoned.
