Bamboo horse is a world-weary male protagonist

At the beginning of winter, Ling Xiufeng had the first heavy snowfall of the year.

The mountain peaks are covered with snow, and the Zhuoyu Tower is covered in white snow and is covered with silver.

It's just that although the snow scene is beautiful, walking is quite inconvenient, especially for some young disciples whose cultivation level is not high and who do not have strong control over spiritual power, they will accidentally fall down from time to time.

When you go out in the morning, you go out with a smile, and when you go back to the bedroom at night, there are many people who come back crying with a bruised nose and a swollen face.

In order to show the peace and friendship of Zhuoyulou, and fully care for the physical and mental health of the newcomers.

According to the usual practice, the brothers and sisters who entered the building in the early years must shoulder the heavy responsibility of sweeping the snow.

This year, the generation responsible for sweeping the first snow in winter is the generation of Guizi Building who entered the building three years ago.

The snow must be swept away before the sun comes out, otherwise the snow will melt and then freeze, even if it is cleaned with magic, it will waste a lot of energy.

Therefore, early in the morning, when the sky was gloomy and the sun had not yet risen, the small courtyard assigned to the bedroom in the Guizi building was noisy and lively.

"The snow-sweeping site that was assigned to everyone yesterday, hasn't everyone forgotten?" The child in charge, who was elected by the young people, summoned the people who were standing in the yard after waking up to form a circle and carried out Final confirmation before snow plowing starts.

"Don't forget!"

"I remember, but I remember, there may be too many places to sweep."

"That's right, I don't know how long it will take to finish scanning."

Everyone sighed and dispersed, but when they reached the top of the peak, they found that some pieces had been swept away.

"Who is in charge of this site?"

"I know this piece, it belongs to Gu Xi."

"The piece next to it belongs to He Chengyuan."

"Whose piece is left?"

"...Li Lie?"

"The three of them have an appointment again?"

"It's definitely not possible to fight. Every time Li Lie is dealt with before he can make a move."

"Is it because Li Lie's brain is not so good, why does he always trouble He Chengyuan?"

"Who knows..."

Amidst the chirping, everyone dispersed, and each went to clear the snow in his own territory.

Ling Xiufeng

Back mountain

The boy in black night clothes was hung upside down from a tree.

He was tied tightly with a rope, like a big rice dumpling, with his own black mask stuffed in his mouth, and he couldn't speak.

A hand reached out to the boy's mouth, and tore off the black veil, and shouts like running water poured down, like a dam that released a flood.

"Gu Xi, if you are capable, let me down and let me challenge you one-on-one!"

"You coward who only knows how to hide people behind your back, let me down and I will kill you with a thunderbolt!"

Bai Jing grabbed a handful of black mud and stuffed it directly into Li Lie's mouth. The disgusted Li Lie retched directly.

"One-on-one? You mean that the twenty or so brothers you brought here are not human?" The young boy's side face looked clean and handsome in the early morning light. It looks like a green grass flower bud that breaks through the frozen ground.

His hair and eyes are black and clear, his round eyes are as innocent and pure as a deer, and his eyes are as bright as stars.

"Bah, bah! Bah!" Li Lie spit out several mouthfuls, and finally spit out all the black mud in his mouth.

He was so asked that he couldn't refute, he gritted his teeth angrily, and his tone was so vicious that he seemed to put Gu Xi's head in the back molars and crush him alive: "Gu Xi, why are you so meddling? I'll beat He Chengyuan and You have a hairy relationship, why on earth do you stand up for him all day long?"

"Those who didn't know thought you two had an affair!"

Li Lie went to trouble with He Chengyuan at first because he wanted to clean up Gu Xi by taking care of He Chengyuan.

He couldn't beat Gu Xi, so he could only find a way to attack He Chengyuan.

As a result, He Chengyuan never knew how to show mercy when fighting.

Although it didn't hurt his life, Li Lie was seriously injured and unconscious almost every time, and he had to lie in bed for at least ten days and a half months without getting out of bed.

Gradually, Li Lie changed from the original trouble of finding Gu Xi through He Chengyuan to an outright personal grievance like "He Chengyuan, I, I have no sympathy with you. If I can't beat you to death, my surname is not Li".

"What kind of nonsense are you asking?" Gu Xi glanced at Li Lie: "He and I are best friends, and his affairs are of course mine."

"Oh, best friend?" Li Lie laughed when he heard this: "Recently, I saw He Chengyuan getting very close to his brother from the Geng Building, staying together every day, and I can't tell at all that you and him are just friends. are best friends."

In order to emphasize the point, Li Lie deliberately turned the word "best" into a different tune.

Seeing Gu Xi's obviously darkened face, Li Lie's inner pride became stronger: "Tsk tsk tsk, look at how pitiful you are. You don't know how to help others get ahead, but you are abandoned in the end."

"Maybe, taking advantage of your hard work in this group of people to deal with me, He Chengyuan just doesn't know where he is enjoying himself with his brother from the Geng Building."

Hearing Li Lie's words, Gu Xi instantly recalled the recent events in his mind.

He remembered that he had seen He Chengyuan talking with a brother from Geng Building in a secret place before, and he wanted to go over to join in the fun, but the two of them separated before they got close, obviously avoiding him on purpose.

Another time when get out of class was over, two people were originally scheduled to go to the back mountain to practice together, but the brother in the Geng building stood under the Gui building and waved at He Chengyuan, and He Chengyuan followed the senior out and gave him to him alone. dropped.

Furthermore, considering that He Chengyuan didn't spend much time with him recently, and those who left early and returned late didn't know what they were busy with, Gu Xi felt that all the anomalies seemed to have come to a conclusion.

He Chengyuan——

Change of heart!

The best friend has a new friend, and it would be a lie to say that she is not sad. Gu Xi's heart is sour, and the jealousy in her tone is wafting around, but she still insists and refuses to give in: "You don't need to talk about this, I will I have known for a long time that the brother from the Geng Building stayed with He Chengyuan recently."

"But he and He Chengyuan are ordinary friends, and He Chengyuan and I are best friends."

When Li Lie heard that Gu Xi's mouth was stiff and his teeth were clenching, Li Lie could not mention the joy in his heart.

He was just about to irritate Gu Xi with a few more words, so he had to talk cheaply, when he heard footsteps coming from his ear, he turned his head and saw that it was He Chengyuan and He Sheng, the senior brother of the Geng Building that he mentioned just now.

The two walked side by side, their lips moved, as if they were talking about something.

The 16-year-old boy is tall and has long legs, and his face is exquisite and cold like a painting carved from ice and snow. Although He Sheng is also a handsome young man, he looks overshadowed by the people around him.

After discovering that there was someone on their side, Li Lie saw He Chengyuan, who was originally indifferent, smiled towards them.

Li Lie had never seen He Chengyuan show such an expression before.

Looking into the distance with the cold and shallow eyes, the light in the eyes is like the melting cold winter spring, and the sparkle is better than the stars and moonlight.

Seeing that Li Lie's eyes widened, he couldn't help rolling his Adam's apple.

"Doudou," He Chengyuan greeted him quickly, with the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and asked softly, "Why are you here? Are you going together?"

It was not early enough, and it was almost time for classes to start in Guizi Building.

Gu Xi didn't reply to He Chengyuan's words, but glanced at He Cheng who was standing not far away, staggered away from He Chengyuan, and smiled at He Cheng: "Good morning, senior brother."

He Sheng didn't expect Gu Xi to greet him, he was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, "Morning."

"The one responsible for sweeping the snow today is Gui Zi Building. What did you do, brother, when you got up so early?" Gu Xi smiled with a lively and natural tone, showing a mouthful of small white teeth.

Realizing that he seemed to be deliberately ignored by Gu Xi, He Chengyuan stood where he was, at a loss.

He didn't know why Gu Xi suddenly ignored him, her thin lips were slowly tightened, and her fingers clenched the corners of her clothes.

"Beanie?"

Gu Xi glanced at him, didn't answer, turned her head and smiled at He Sheng again: "Senior brother, you haven't answered my question yet."

"What did you do this early in the morning?"

He Sheng remembered He Chengyuan's instructions to him, and decided to hide it: "I didn't do anything, I just saw that the weather was good today, so I wanted to come out earlier—"

He didn't expect to be asked such a question suddenly, and he couldn't find a suitable excuse to answer for a while.

It just so happened that the winter sun came up late, looking at the half-exposed sun, He Sheng continued as if he was saved: "Watch the sunrise."

"That's right," he said, satisfied with the excuse he had found: "Wake up early to watch the sunrise."

"Oh~" Gu Xi suddenly realized: "Senior brother is really in a good mood. It's such a cold day to wake up early to watch the sunrise."

He waved his hand with a smile, and took small steps: "Senior brother, take a look, I'm going to class. I won't bother you, brother, let's go."

He Chengyuan, you heartless man!

You didn't watch the sunrise with me!

Gu Xi cursed angrily in her heart, and when she turned around and ran back, her expression was almost distorted with anger.

He had just ran out two steps when someone grabbed his arm, and He Chengyuan's hoarse and cold voice came from his ear: "I'm sorry."

Turning his head, he saw those amber eyes looking straight at him with deep eyes.

what sorry!

So you admitted that you have the best relationship with your senior brother, and you won't recognize me as a friend in the future, right?

Gu Xi was so angry that his teeth were itchy, but he still pretended to be careless on the surface: "You didn't do anything wrong, why do you say sorry?"

"Go watch the sunrise with your good brother, I'm going to class with Li Lie."

"Li Lie, let's go."

After finishing speaking, he shook off He Chengyuan's hand, untied the rope tied to Li Lie's body, helped Li Lie pat the ashes on his body and the mud around his mouth, and said "slap" as if he was hitting Li Lie's mouth with strength. "snap" sound.

Li Lie was dazzled by Gu Xi's sudden enthusiasm, and let Gu Xi vent his anger and play with him like a puppet.

"Gu Xi, you, you, why are you doing this all of a sudden?" Li Lie stuttered in fright: "You, stay away from me, don't touch me!"

"My good friend, what are you talking about?" Gu Xi's smile was gloomy, and his tone was also very gloomy.

He has unilaterally decided to be good friends with Li Lie today.

how.

As long as He Chengyuan has new friends, shouldn't he have one?

Gu Xi stretched out his hand to pull Li Lie's hand, the fingertips were still some distance away from Li Lie's boss, his wrist was tightly grasped, so much that his whole arm hurt.

"Doudou," He Chengyuan frowned slightly, his thin lips almost pursed into a line.

His voice was very low: "When did you become friends with Li Lie, why didn't I know?"

"Why do you need to know everything?" Gu Xi's cheeks puffed up with anger, "Then I don't even know when you and Brother He Cheng became friends!"

The last sentence was almost shouted out, and after he finished speaking, he was so tired that he was out of breath, and his face flushed red.

The rushing momentum made the rest of the people present tremble.

He Sheng, who was named again, felt that he should say something at this time, and just about to open his mouth, he heard a burst of hahahaha laughter.

"Gu Xi, hahahahahaha!"

Li Lie laughed until tears came out: "You boy, are you fucking jealous? You are too funny!"

"Huh?" Gu Xi looked a little dazed.

He had an intuition that what Li Lie said was not good, so he replied with a fierce attitude: "Why are you jealous? I think you owe it to me."

After speaking, he waved his fist at Li Lie as a threat.

Seeing that Li Lie subconsciously shrank his neck in fright from his fist dancing, Gu Xi took his hand back in satisfaction.

He wanted to pull out the hand that was held by He Chengyuan, but he couldn't move it after several times.

Tilting his head, he stared angrily, and found that He Chengyuan was staring at his face, his eyes were shining.

The boy's voice was mixed with the morning mist, low and gentle, with hidden surprises.

"Doudou, you, are you jealous of me and He Sheng?"

He looked very happy and excited.

Gu Xi couldn't understand why He Chengyuan's attitude suddenly changed to this, and frowned and replied, "Why are you jealous? What are you talking about?"

He felt that the way He Chengyuan looked at him was so strange, he subconsciously wanted to hide, and the result of retreating vigorously while being dragged by someone's hand was——

With a "crack", the whole person froze in place and could not move.

He Chengyuan: "Doudou?"

Slowly raising her head, Gu Xi's round almond eyes were filled with tears, her small mouth was tightly shut, and she didn't say a word.

He twisted his back.
