The protagonist of the book is blackening

At this time, a small group of people gathered in front of the White Jade Palace. Chu Jinran glanced over and saw that there were about 20 people. Before that small group of people, there were more than a dozen people in white clothes, which were very eye-catching in their colorful clothes. Chu Jinran walked over, and as expected, it was the white-clothed monk who explained the customs clearance requirements and the white-clothed disciple behind him.

This time, the monk in white didn't have a sword, but stood on the flat ground with them, without the feeling of looking down on him, which made him look a lot more friendly.

"Congratulations, everyone, you have become official disciples of my High Heaven Palace." The smile on the corners of the lips of the monk in white became more gentle when he spoke: "However, there is still the last level here, which is called 'Broken Heart Demon'. There are many temptations on the way, but the most important thing in sword cultivation is to stick to your heart and not be disturbed by external objects. Naturally, it is particularly important to break the demons first and then practice. But this level is not mandatory, and the juniors can choose to break through the level Or not to break in. If the heartbreaker succeeds, and the talent is above the three spiritual roots, he can be accepted by the elders of Lingxiao Palace. Even if the talent is below the three spiritual roots, he will receive good treatment."

As we all know, those who are gifted with four or five spiritual roots should be destined to be handymen in a sect like Lingxiao Palace.While speaking, the monk in white slowly glanced at the people present, as if observing their reactions:

"Although the rewards are rich, the risks are also the same." The monk in white said, the smile on his lips deepened: "If you don't succeed in breaking the heart demon, you will be disturbed by the heart demon. On the way of cultivating immortals, there is another big thing. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is dangerous. What I need to remind everyone is that from the establishment of the Lingxiao Palace to the present, there are very few students in each batch of students who can break the demons, and most of the disciples who have not broken the demons afterwards And died because of it." The white-clothed monk finished leisurely: "So, which junior brother wants to try it?"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, but surprisingly, there were quite a few people who stood up. Although the friar in white had clearly explained the dangers, the rewards were too generous, and there were always many people in this world who took chances of.Most people are thinking: What if I succeed in breaking the heart demon?

Chu Jinran pondered for a while, thinking that he had never had a problem with anything in his life, so he also stood up.Seeing him standing up, Yu Xiaorou hesitated and walked to the front.Sucher thought for a while, then took a few steps forward.

In an instant, among the original 20 people, only two or three remained.Looking at the expressions on their faces, Chu Jinran found that they were still shaken.

"If that's the case, juniors and brothers, please enter the palace." The white-clothed monk said, leading into the White Jade Palace, followed by the rest of the dozen or so people.

Entering the White Jade Palace, a gust of warm air rushes towards your face, making you feel warm all over your body. Chu Jinran raised his eyes to look inside the White Jade Palace, and found that the palace was so clean. In the pure and hazy White Jade Palace, there were only dozens of milky white The futon, and a big bell in the center of the hall, the bell is ancient bronze color, as if it is old, there is no moss on it, the mysterious runes carved are clearly visible, the whole body of the bell does not fluctuate, but it is naturally revealed. A simple and elegant temperament.

"Junior brothers, please sit down." The monk in white said, and took the lead to sit down on the front futon.

The dozen or so people who followed in sat down one after another.

Chu Jinran sat on the rightmost side in the third row, and Su Che sat beside him.Although the atmosphere in the White Jade Palace was peaceful, but after all, they were here to break the demons. Many people were still vigilant, including Chu Jinran and Su Che.

After a while, the monk in white was still sitting on the futon with his eyes slightly closed.The people below had already started to commotion, many of them were talking softly, but with the monks in white, they didn't dare to be too presumptuous.

As the number of voices increased, the monk in white said leisurely, "Why don't you sit quietly for a while? The time has not come yet." His voice had a strange soothing power, and the people who were talking saw the monk in white speak. He didn't dare to talk any more, instead he listened to his words and sat up quietly.

After such a long time, someone's vigilance has been slightly relaxed.But Chu Jinran was still as vigilant as before. Seeing the people around him closing their eyes like the monks in white clothes, Chu Jinran also quietly closed their eyes.

I don't know if it's because of his eyes being closed, but Chu Jinran's other facial features are more acute: the cloth bandage on his chest is tied tightly, which makes him feel a little stuffy.The wrapped wound was no longer painful, but itchy. Chu Jinran knew that this meant that the wound had begun to heal.He was a little surprised at the speed at which his wound healed, but after thinking about it, he guessed that it might have something to do with his slightly awakened race.There is a faint fragrance at the tip of the nose, subtle and sweet, surrounding him calmly. Chu Jinran's brain is currently in a very comfortable state. He also likes this fragrance very much. He can't help but smell it a few more times. .There seems to be a bell ringing in the ear, ancient and vigorous, as if far away in the sky, but also close in front of you...

Chu Jinran seemed to be dreaming.

He went back to the time before he was ten years old, and he used his immature hands to draw pictures seriously, such as a big tree, some flowers, or his parents and elder brother.He doesn't like to play, he is too quiet for a child.

The elegant mother nodded his forehead: "You child, why are you so different from your elder brother? When your naughty elder brother was at your age, I don't know how many troubles he caused me. Climbing trees, digging out bird's nests, picking up girls skirt... that brat."

His father lifted him up to make him laugh.The little Chu Jinran also smiled, the smile was very small, very faint.

"Is brother coming back today?" He heard his own voice asking, Nuo Nuo's voice made him feel strange: "Today is my birthday."

Oh, he remembered, today is his birthday.

"Of course he will come back." My father said with a smile, "If he doesn't come back, see if I don't beat him to death."

My brother came back very early that day. The young man was already tall and handsome, with a handsome face and an unruly expression. I don't know how many girls in school could arouse the admiration of him.My brother picked him up to receive congratulations from other people, including grandpas, uncles, aunts, and many, many others.But their family is big enough to accommodate these people.

Even though the little Chu Jinran was naturally quiet and introverted and didn't know them very well, at that time, the smiles on their faces were all kind and full of kindness.

Then... what happened next?

The 12-year-old Chu Jinran looked at the doctor in front of him expressionlessly, and heard him coldly say that the vital signs of his parents had disappeared.

They had a car accident.Man-made or accidental, Chu Jinran doesn't know.

But the strange thing is that Chu Jinran didn't feel any sadness or despair at this time, he just watched some kind of silent black and white movie, watching calmly and rationally.

Grandpa, devastated by the death of his favorite son, falls into a coma.In an instant, the faces of those uncles and uncles became ferocious and ugly, and greed was written on almost everyone's faces.

They want to fight for their father's company and the rich property that their grandfather gave to their father.

My elder brother is under the age, so he can't inherit those things, so he can only let his uncle rob them, but when he gets them back, how much can he get?

"Xiao Ran." My brother was expressionless, but something called indifference flashed in his dark eyes: "One day, I will take back my father's property and make those people's lives worse than death."

"...that day won't be long," he heard himself say.This accident was too big, so big that it made the originally quiet and introverted little boy so indifferent.

But in reality, they had been waiting for years for that day to come.Brother|He is thinking hard day and night, every moment, his sharp eyebrows suppress madness and hatred, and there is always forbearance in his expression.Some kind of cruel, cold forbearance, when he stopped suppressing it and all the hatred burst out suddenly, Chu Jinran believed that he would indeed make their lives worse than death.

Chu Jinran no longer paints, even if he paints, his paintings are always full of gray|emotions such as repression and hatred.

Until one day...a boy took the initiative to cling to him. At first, he felt impatient, but later, he couldn't help but be infected by the boy's cheerfulness and optimism. indifference.The young Chu Jinran smiled for the first time after his parents died in a car accident and his elder brother left home to fight hard.

And then... and then the eldest brother caught the handles of the uncles who managed the company, such as criminal evidence, such as personal privacy.Participated in planning his parents car accident, he put them in jail.No one ever watched the plight of the two of them indifferently, not to mention that they themselves were not clean, and the elder brother also ruined their family and their lives were miserable.

Chu Jinran once begged for love.

"Xiaoran." The eldest brother said with a smile.Inexplicably, Chu Jinran felt that smile was very bloodthirsty: "In this world, the strong prey on the weak. They are weaker than me, and it should be so." The elder brother said, rubbing his head: "You forgot how they were before? Treat us?"

"..." Chu Jinran was silent.He watched him quietly, watching the once rebellious boy grow into the cold and violent man he is today.

Really?He whispered in his heart, but I think you are very unhappy.

Later, under his unwavering request, the eldest brother still agreed to let some people go.

Later, in order to clean up the mess that drove those people away, the eldest brother became more and more busy, working almost all day long.In fact, he did not do this beautifully. He could boil the frogs in warm water and wipe them out one by one. In this way, the company's situation will be better, and the eldest brother will not be as busy as he is now.

But Chu Jinran knew that he couldn't bear it.The eldest brother has endured it for many years, and those things he suppressed must explode, otherwise he will go crazy first.

But even when he broke out, he was still unhappy.

How can I make you happy, brother?

Chu Jinran thought, if you lived with you, would you feel better?After all, their relatives in this world are only each other.He will work hard to learn cooking skills, take care of the three meals of the elder brother, remind the elder brother when to eat, and prevent him from being too busy to forget the time.He can also take a book and read it while his eldest brother is working at night, so that his eldest brother should be happier if he is accompanied by someone.

Chu Jinran thought it was a good idea, so he started to pack his luggage and left his house decorated mainly in black and white.

Along the way, he thought: As long as he quickly completes the task of blackening Su Che, all of his ideas should be fulfilled.

Make Su Che black?

task?

Chu Jinran was startled suddenly.

At the moment before he woke up, he was thinking: If he goes back to live with his elder brother, who would want to get close to the blackened Suche?Willing to make friends with him?Want to make him happy?

He was at a loss.

The bell seemed to ring again, and he was almost dragged into another maze.

When he opened his eyes again, the hazy and gentle light entered his eyes first, Chu Jinran looked to the left, but saw Yu Xiaorou with a worried face.Seeing his clear phoenix eyes looking over, Yu Xiaorou happily whispered: "Brother Chu, are you awake?"

Chu Jinran murmured, and turned to look at Su Che who was sitting beside him, but saw that his forehead was covered with sweat, his long eyelashes trembled violently, and his expression was sometimes struggling, sometimes painful, and sometimes ferocious.

Yu Xiaorou was still talking cheerfully in his ear: "Brother Chu, Brother Chu, I was the first to wake up~ I really didn't expect it, hehe."

"...Well." Chu Jinran turned her head, which is quite understandable. The girl lived in a simple environment since she was a child, and her only father loved her so much. Apart from being separated from her father, she did not encounter any other difficulties.And judging from the girl's performance before, it is clear that she has no difficulty in getting rid of the sadness of being separated from her father.

But other people are different. Except for Yu Xiaorou, everyone here has reached the Qi refining stage, and they must have more experience than girls, and they have more things that can become demons.Most of the young people's personalities have not stabilized, not to mention that most of the people here are in adolescence, and they will inevitably be more sensitive and vulnerable to some things that the world is used to.

Chu Jinran looked around the hall, and found that in addition to the original dozen people, there were more than a dozen people added.He noticed that Wei Qinglang and Xie Xiangnan also appeared.Looking at the expressions on the faces of the two of them, Wei Qinglang's is relatively peaceful, he is everyone's beloved son of a family, apart from daily worries, how can he play more, others are protecting him, so what is there to worry about?But Xie Xiangnan is different.Chu Jinran saw the resentful and distorted expression on his face, and knew that his childhood must not have been so wonderful.

Other than that, no one woke up in the hall.

"Brother Chu." Yu Xiaorou tugged at his sleeve and asked curiously: "What did you say Su Che dreamed about? Why does he look like this, so...painful?"

Chu Jinran turned around, but saw that Su Che was struggling, and he was indeed in pain.

And his dream is full of Chu Jinran.
