Qi Luo Man Ting Fang in the old days

Haoyuan and Xiuning became friends.

At that time, his home had not been destroyed, nor had he been taken away by Shen Liuyun, so he was not called Haoyuan, but had a very ordinary name, Li Dabao.

His parents only had him as a child, so they naturally regarded him as a baby, and they literally expressed their deep love for him when they named him, so that he was often teased in front of other children.

Hao Yuan himself was also very distressed, so when he told Xiu Ning his name, he specially emphasized that he should be called "Brother Bao."

Xiu Ning is very obedient, and every time he calls "Brother Bao", it is very nice.Hao Yuan didn't go out much since he met him, because Xiu Ning didn't seem to want to meet strangers, so he stayed at home with Xiu Ning throughout the year.There are no relatives in their family, and they usually walk around the village.So the news that his family had taken in a little beggar spread throughout the village within two days.

The girl named Qinqin was about the same age as Haoyuan, and once she came back to Haoyuan's house to ask him to go out to play, Haoyuan was not happy.After seeing Xiu Ning, she didn't know what to do, so she sweared at Xiu Ning, which made Xiu Ning very unhappy.As a result, Haoyuan didn't allow Xiuning to be seen even more, and the two of them hid in the room all day long.

Xiu Ning seems to have read a lot of books, recognizes more characters than Hao Yuan, and can draw.Haoyuan's mother took a pen and paper and asked him to teach Haoyuan. As a result, after one winter, Haoyuan was not as wild as before. He knew a lot more characters, and he could even draw a picture.

His changes were seen in the eyes of his parents, who were overjoyed and didn't think about sending Xiu Ning away anymore.

The days passed so comfortably.

After the beginning of spring, Haoyuan found that Xiu Ning would always go to the back mountain of the village alone.He followed secretly for a while, only to find that Xiu Ning was sitting under a wild peach tree in a daze.

After chatting with him, Haoyuan realized that he liked peach blossoms very much, so he asked his father to buy back the peach blossom seeds, and took him to plant a peach tree in the yard.

From then on, Xiu Ning stared at the young sapling every day and took good care of it.But I don't know if it's because of missing the point, the little sapling gradually grew up, but there was no sign of flowering.

Every time he sees Xiu Ning's lost appearance, Hao Yuan is also unhappy.

Haoyuan knew that he had something on his mind.Because he often stares at the peach tree in a daze, no matter what Haoyuan asks, he doesn't say anything.Hao Yuan also asked him where his home was and why he begged here, but he still didn't say anything.

The day approaching early summer was Hao Yuan's birthday, his mother made a bowl of birthday noodles early, with meat and eggs in it.Hao Yuan took a bowl and divided it into two parts, and gave the other part to Xiu Ning.

Mother saw that they were so friendly, she didn't say anything, she went to the pot and took another red egg and put it into Xiu Ning's hands, asking him to peel it and eat it.

Xiu Ning stared blankly at all this, his eyes turned red without warning.

That was the first time Haoyuan saw him cry.

Hao Yuan frantically wiped his face with his hands until it looked like a cat, the tears never stopped.

Later Hao Yuan asked him when his birthday was, Xiu Ning said a date, Hao Yuan said that this year has already passed, and he will celebrate it next year.Xiu Ning didn't say anything, just looked at him with a look that Hao Yuan couldn't understand at that time.

That night when they were lying in bed, Hao Yuan heard Xiu Ning call him when he was about to fall asleep.

Hao Yuan was really tired after playing for a whole day, and he was dazed again after just answering.

At that time, he seemed to have heard what Xiu Ning was saying, but he fell asleep completely before he heard it clearly.

When he woke up the next morning, he never saw Xiu Ning again.

Xiu Ning left and left him a letter.

In fact, it was just a piece of paper, placed beside his pillow.

There were childish but neat words of thanks written on it, and Xiu Ning didn't say where he was going, nor did he say anything else.Hao Yuan looked at the title with the first three characters, his heart was empty, and he always felt that something left with Xiu Ning.

He didn't make any noise, but just showed the letter left by Xiu Ning to his parents, who said it was a pity.His mother said that Xiu Ning was too sensible, and his speech and behavior were not like those of ordinary people. She also advised Haoyuan not to be sad, saying that he must be homesick and go back home.

But Haoyuan knew that if Xiu Ning had a family, he wouldn't beg.If Xiu Ning had loved his family, he wouldn't have kept silent for half a year.

But at that time, Haoyuan had just passed his tenth birthday, so he didn't understand how much bitterness and helplessness there was in this world.Xiu Ning was a brilliance in his short life, the blooming was too short, and the passing away was too hasty.

Haoyuan had no time to remember Xiuning's departure, because a group of wild bandits attacked their village a few days later, burning, killing and looting without mercy.His father and mother died protecting him, and he was also arrested and, together with other children in the village, sold to a private mine as a coolie.

Those were the darkest two years in Hao Yuan's life. During those days, there were too few happy memories that could support him. Apart from his parents, Xiu Ning was the only one.

He was thankful countless times that Xiu Ning had left, if he hadn't left, he would have lived this miserable life with him.

Hao Yuan pulled back his thoughts that were drifting further and further away, and looked at the person who was sleeping peacefully in his arms.

This Qi Luozhu originally belonged to Xiu Ning, and it was the only valuable thing on Xiu Ning's body the night he was rescued by his mother.Xiu Ning gave it to Hao Yuan, Hao Yuan liked this fragrance very much, and kept it carefully.

Haoyuan didn't know the relationship between Qiluozhu and Qiluohua, and he didn't even know that the fragrance of Qiluozhu belonged to Qiluohua.

Because only the Qilian Mountains in this world have Qiluo flowers, that flower is too noble, it is the symbol of Nanyue Bai clan.

He accidentally heard Bai Xiuning's praise of him in Shengping Town, and he was very surprised at that time.Since this person recognized him, but didn't think about arresting him, how could he boast?

Hao Yuan has never been treated kindly by people from the righteous family.

So he became very curious about Bai Xiuning and carefully followed him all the way.Bai Xiuning's cultivation level is very high, but Haoyuan is taller than him, so he didn't notice it all the way.

Haoyuan saved him purely because of his compliment.But when Haoyuan saw the peach blossom birthmark on his wrist, he thought of Xiuning when he was a child.

Hao Yuan has no common sense anymore, and he has heard that the assistant prince of the Bai clan is called Bai Xiuning.

But he didn't think much about it before, after all, Bai Xiuning was a high-ranking person, so how could he be related to that little beggar back then?Hao Yuan took it as a coincidence of the same name, but he didn't expect that the person in front of him with the peach blossom birthmark was also named Xiu Ning.

Same birthmark, same name.

Hao Yuan has a lot to ask him.For example, why did you leave without saying goodbye?Where did you go?Is the Bai family his home?If his identity is really so valuable, why did he have to beg again?Still being beaten like that?

But Haoyuan still didn't ask, he knew that Bai Xiuning was too tired, so he used Qi Luozhu's fragrance to make Bai Xiuning fall asleep.

He remembered that when he first arrived at his house, Xiu Ning always couldn't sleep well.Once he put Qi Luo Zhu beside his pillow and smelled it, but before he fell asleep, Xiu Ning fell asleep first.

After Haoyuan asked, he found out that Qiluozhu was a sleeping pill for him. Haoyuan refused to take it, but Xiuning refused to take it back.In the end, Hao Yuan put it between the pillows of the two of them. Since then, Xiu Ning has been sleeping more and more peacefully.

Hao Yuan smiled, with water-like gentleness flowing between his brows.After so many years, Xiu Ning's habit still hasn't changed.

He checked Bai Xiuning's pulse, and he was relieved only after making sure that the evil fire in his body had really dissipated.When he was thinking about following him during the day, he vaguely heard Bai Xiuning and his disciples talking about investigating some living corpses.

At that time, Hao Yuan didn't take it seriously at all, and he didn't listen carefully. After all, Bai Xiuning is not a cheap lamp, and he might be discovered if he doesn't pay attention.

Thinking about it now, he should immediately figure out why Wang Chuanyue wanted to hurt Bai Xiuning.

Haoyuan carried Bai Xiuning back to the Buddhist table, placed the Qiluozhu beside him, and set up a barrier to block the wind for him.Only then did he walk over and fly out with Wang Chuanyue's collar in hand.
