Linzhou.

There is a pungent rancid smell in the air, the weather is humid, the road is tortuous, and there are puddles everywhere, probably because of the hazy weather and frequent rain these days.

Outside Linzhou City, there were more than a dozen officers and soldiers with white cloths tied to their faces and holding big knives. The knife will be across your neck. For them, their task is to guard Linzhou City and prevent anyone from entering or exiting, lest someone break into this "dead city" and get infected with red fire, or Infected with the terrible virus of red fire, if they did not do it, even if they were not tortured to death because of the infection of red fire, they would be beheaded and die as headless corpses.

The drizzle was drizzling and the fog was thick. The clothes of the officers and soldiers guarding the city were stained with rain and dew, and their temples were dripping with water. A gust of cool wind passed by, and the chill was severe. They shivered and tightened their clothes. Suddenly, three figures came out of the mist. , They were holding umbrellas, the fog covered their faces, and the sound of footsteps made the officers and soldiers vigilant, holding the handle of the knife.

"Stop, who are you?" An officer shouted at them. The three of them did not respond to the officer's question for a long time, and walked on their own way. The officer was naturally unhappy, but he did not dare to relax his vigilance. People, signal to stop them, if they don't obey, they have to draw their swords.

You Yunfeng stopped in his tracks, obviously aware of the tense atmosphere, moved his umbrella back a little, his black eyes were indifferent, and his thin lips were pursed, staring at the officers and soldiers who seemed to regard them as prisoners, but he didn't intend to speak, so let alone It was hoped that the always silent and gloomy white ghost would speak up, so Qingshuang was the only one left.

Qingshuang sighed, bowed slightly to the officers and soldiers, and smiled slightly: "Gentlemen, Xiaosheng is the second young master of the Ren family, please open the city gate and let us in."

A bearded officer and soldier glanced at Qingshuang, with a humble expression and a respectful tone: "It turned out to be the second son of the Ren family, so I was rude just now. Although I don't know why the second son returned to Linzhou, but the second son The request is too embarrassing for me, we will not open this city gate, and we cannot open it, please forgive me for making it difficult."

The Ren family, the richest man in Linzhou City, is headed by a woman, Ren Ling, everyone in Linzhou City knows everyone, but no one has seen Ren Ling, but her three sons are all talented and beautiful. Shuangquan, the eldest son is Ren Qingli, the official worships the second grade; the second son is Ren Qingyu, with high martial arts skills, and is one of the best masters in the world; A "sick scholar" who is weak and will fall ill at any time.That's why the officers and soldiers are so polite to Qingshuang. After all, he is the son of Ren Ling, the richest man in Linzhou, the second brother of Master Ren, and the second brother of martial arts master Ren Daxia. How dare he offend Qingshuang? As long as those people move their fingers, he His life was lost with a whimper, so of course he would not offend Qingshuang if possible, but he had to follow the order from above and let Qingshuang in.

Qingshuang shook her head in her heart: It really is easy to go out of the city, but difficult to enter the city.His mother helped him when he left the city, but now he can only rely on himself, but if he said that he, a "sick scholar", could cure Chihuo, I don't think anyone would believe him, so he had to wait for his mother to pick him up. up.

Just as he was thinking this way, an officer suddenly whispered a few words to the bearded officer. The officer's eyes flickered, and he immediately shouted: "Open the city gate! Please come in, second son." And the officer The reason why the attitude changed so quickly was because another officer and soldier told him just now that Ren Qingli had told them that if Ren Qingshuang wanted to enter the city, they just had to open it, but he forgot about it. Fortunately, someone reminded him, Otherwise, ten lives would not be enough for him.

"Thank you, sir." Qingshuang nodded happily, then turned to You Yunfeng and said, "Master You, let's go into the city now." Quietly followed behind You Yunfeng.

The streets were completely empty, and there was not even a trace of Linzhou City, which was usually bustling, at this moment. The whimpering wind sounded like weeping.

The floor tiles on the feet are full of dust, I am afraid it has not been swept for a long time, the inns and restaurants next to the street are silent, and the doors are tightly closed, but there is not even a passerby in the bustling street in the past, only groans in the ears The sound of the wind and the howling sound of the wind, Linzhou in memory no longer exists, and now it is just a cold and deserted dead city.

You Yunfeng looked at everything here, from the slanted stalls to the restaurants, mansions, and tea sheds with closed doors, and then he was sure that what Qingshuang said was not exaggerated, and all the people here were there went?Qingshuang had already told him that those who were infected with Chihuo had already moved him to the temple, while those who were not infected with Chihuo stayed at home.

Half an hour later, they came to a mansion no less than Youying Bieyuan, with the word Renfu written on the horizontal plaque.

Qingshuang grabbed the door knocker and knocked lightly two or three times. At this moment, a young man opened the door, looked at Qingshuang, and said joyfully, "Second Young Master!"

Qingshuang's eyebrows and eyes were filled with joy, and her mouth was full of smiles: "Housekeeper, I'm back." I saw the young man, dressed in a dark blue robe, with a strong figure, well-behaved and polite, obviously is a well trained butler.

The young man said: "Second young master, it's good if you come back. These days, my wife is looking forward to the stars and the moon and hopes that the second young master can come back soon. Second young master, hurry up and find your wife, she will be very happy to know." After the second young master left Linzhou After that, Madam would ask about the Second Young Master every day, even the Eldest Young Master and the Third Young Master did not see how Madam asked about it.

mother?He never thought that Mother would care about her so much. Mother has always been very strict with the three brothers and rarely asked about their health. In addition to checking their poems and songs every day, she also ordered the housekeeper to train their physique. She felt that the three brothers were too grown up. They are delicate, not like a man, so she has to train them to be a real man, no matter in appearance, behavior, or temperament, they must not be a bit feminine, and they have suffered a lot for this.I remember that the third brother once wore women's clothing to tease a person, but his mother found out. The mother asked the third brother to wear women's clothing for three months, and also asked the maid to do makeup for the third brother. At that time, the mother said something to the third brother "Since you want to be a woman, then let you be enough." During these three months, the active third brother hid at home and did not dare to go out. When he was able to wear men's clothes again, the third brother practiced martial arts desperately. , so the martial arts of the three brothers is the highest of the third brother. Since that time, the third brother would avoid women whenever he saw a woman. He often went out and rarely went home.

In fact, they all know that their mother did this because they look too much like their father, and their father is very beautiful, more beautiful than any other woman, and he is the most beautiful woman in the world. And divorced his mother.He thought that mother would hate father, but according to the housekeeper, mother did not hate father, because she never loved him, and she would marry him at that time, but when she reached the marriageable age, she happened to meet many people trying to avoid him. The suitor's father, so they hit it off and got married. After they got married, the mother always thought that the father was too beautiful, and provoked some flies all day long. She didn't even have time to rest every day, just to solve his perseverance. Suitor; but father thought that mother was jealous of his beauty, so he said so.Later, father fell in love with someone, and mother felt that this "trouble" could finally be put aside, so mother asked father to divorce her, but father refused to say anything, saying that mother was the mother of three children, and if she divorced How should mother live in the future, and how could he do the thing of abandoning his wife?But Niang wrote a letter of divorce and a letter the next day, and brought the three brothers to Linzhou, where they lived for 20 years.

"Housekeeper, these two are my friends, Mr. You and Mr. Bai." Qingshuang pointed at You Yunfeng and Bai Gui.

"So it's the second young master's friend." Looking at You Yunfeng and the white ghost, the young man felt that the two were handsome, one was dressed in black and was indifferent and cold; the other was dressed in white and was cold and taciturn. Thought they were brothers. "Second young master, do you want to see your wife now, or change your clothes first?"

"No need, I'll go see my mother directly. Butler, you can take Mr. You and Mr. Bai to the guest room to rest first." Qingshuang's clothes were stained with raindrops in several places, and the weather was slightly cold. The butler was afraid of him. He caught a cold, but he didn't care, after all, his body was not so weak that he would catch a cold after a few drops of drizzle.

"Yes, Second Young Master." The young man responded in a well-mannered manner, and then said to You Yunfeng and the white ghost: "Young Masters, please follow me to the guest room to rest."

"En." You Yunfeng nodded. They rushed to Linzhou day and night these days. He was indeed a little tired. He slept in a small carriage, and he was squeezed with Qingshuang. As for the white ghost, he slept in the On the tree trunk, it would be great to have a place to rest now.
