"I..." Jiang Shuo's voice was like ripples, with ups and downs of emotion.

"pat..."

"pat..."

"pat..."

There was already a pool of blood on the ground, but Qin Yiheng's blood still didn't stop, and was still falling drop after drop.Every drop of blood that stays in the air for a short time is rendered by candlelight, like liquid gold beads, glowing with a fascinating color.

Jiang Shuo looked up at Qin Yiheng, his face was even more bleak under the bleak candlelight.But he didn't know that his current face was no better than Qin Yiheng's.

He took a few steps in the direction of Qin Yiheng, and accidentally touched the red thread with copper coins and bells under his feet. The sound of tinkling rang. He ignored the red thread, stepped over, and walked into the formation, only to find that the ringing of the bell was getting louder and louder. Ringing, the sound of bells came from all directions around him.It was only then that Jiang Shuo noticed that the entire room was covered with fine red threads, copper coins and tiny bells, arranged like a net waiting to catch him at all times.

Head hurts……

Jiang Shuo's head began to hurt sharply again.

My head hurts...it hurts like it's about to split...

【02】

【"forget it……"】

Whose voice is this?Is it yourself?

【"Forget everything..."】

Why did I see my own string of red rope copper coins...

【"Forget who you are."】

Barren graves, cemeteries, rain...

This is... the memory before he was picked up by Master Bu Yan a year ago.

On that day a year ago, he accidentally drank too much, and Liuzhi appeared.

……

【03】

【"I don't need you! I don't need your so-called help! Don't come out again!"】

【"You are crossing the river and tearing down the bridge. You don't even think about it. You are today thanks to me! Without me, you are nothing!"】

Jiang Shuo remembered that two years ago, he finally learned how to use a string of copper coins to suppress the six fingers and imprison the other party in his heart.

……

【04】

【"Why do you want to take over the Sakura soup house?"】

【"I can make money and catch other people's pigtails, isn't it good?"】

【"Didn't you already have Liushun Real Estate? We are no longer short of money, so why..."]

【"Because it's fun. How interesting it is to hold other people's fate in your own hands!"】

【"Do you know how many people you have ruined?"】

【"That's their own greed, they deserve it."】

【"But you can't kill someone else just because of this!"】

【"I said, they deserve it, they asked for it."】

Five years ago, Panxia Sakura Soup House.

……

[The pinball stand by the pier. 】

【"This marble is too difficult to play, I have never won it once! I won't play it."】

【"Try a few more times, it will succeed. Boss, the money is on hold."】

【"I have money."】

【"I invite you."】

【"What's your name, I'll pay you back the money."】

【"Little friend, I can tell you your name, but you don't have to pay back the money. My name is Qin Yiheng. Have fun! The boat is about to leave, goodbye!"]

This was ten years ago, by the pier in Changshan Prefecture. It turned out that he had met Qin Yiheng before.

……

【06】

【"Can you do business and make money without showing up?"】

【"Of course, otherwise it's too young, it's not easy to come forward. Don't forget, we have our own skills, and it couldn't be easier to make money."】

【"But mother said, don't use copper coins on strings casually."】

【"It's not used casually, we just want to live and work in this troubled world. Otherwise, you won't even be able to keep this house, and you will sleep on the street sooner or later. These days, there are constant wars, and no one will help a lonely and helpless child for no reason , unless they have other plans.”]

【"Oh well."】

Liuzhi is indeed very smart, even if he doesn't need strings of copper coins, he can confuse people's hearts, just like he started to do business in Changshan Prefecture shortly after he appeared.

……

【07】

【"I don't want to be alone..."】

【"If only someone could accompany me..."】

【"If there is a powerful person, he won't cry, won't be afraid, won't be sad, can accompany me, can help me..."]

【"Just like Lu Zhi and Jiang Shuo..."】

【"Are you looking for me?"】

【"Who are you?"】

【"I am Lu Zhi, you are Jiang Shuo."】

【"it is good."】

It was not long after his parents passed away, and he met Liuzhi for the first time.

……

【08】

【"Father and mother, why didn't they move, why didn't they get up to accompany me?"】

【"They... died..."】

【"die……"】

My heart hurts so much, I have to go through the pain of digging my heart again.

……

【09】

【"Father and mother are behind my back, what delicious food are you eating? It's so delicious!"】

【"Quick... hurry up, people..."】

……

【"what did the doctor say?"】

【"It should be poisoned by eating poisonous mushrooms by mistake, I'm afraid... oh... I'm afraid I can't save it!"】

That night, everything was blurry, and it was such a blur in my memory that I couldn't see anything clearly.

……

【10】

【"Xiaozhi, have you learned it yet?"】

【"Well, mother, I will."】

【"Okay, let's play with it, this string of copper coins will be yours from now on."】

Yes, it is this string of copper coins.

……

【11】

【"Snapped--"】

[The parents were arguing again and broke countless porcelain. 】

【"Why did you become like this? Don't you just dislike me for being older than you? But at the beginning, you insisted on being with me!"】

【"Madam, it's just a joke, why are you being so serious?"】

【"Really? Without me, would you have everything you have today?"】

【"I know, ma'am, don't be angry..."】

Mother is five years older than father, only five years old.

……

【12】

【"Mother, this purse is so pretty, is this my name? Lu—zhi—"】

【"Xiao Zhi, these two characters are Jiang Shuo, Jiang from the surging Jianghan, Shuo from the jade and gold. This is also your name."】

【"Oh! Mom, I got it! I have two names!"】

【"Yes, when people who don't know you ask you, just tell them that you are Jiang Shuo, do you know?"】

【"Madam, Lu Zhi's name is pretty good, why do you want to give him a pseudonym Jiang Shuo?"】

【"He lacks water and fire in the five elements, but if he takes it directly from the name, if he meets someone with ulterior motives, he can immediately calculate his birth date. If he uses a pseudonym, as long as others don't know his identity, this pseudonym It can also help him ward off disasters.”]

【"Madam, you are too careful."】

【"No way, our family is in this business, it's a common practice, in case the enemies find us, we have to be careful."】

That's how the word "Jiang Shuo" in that purse came about.

【13】

【"Xiaozhi, come, give me a hug from daddy."】

【"Xiaozhi, mother loves you the most."】

This is the first memory.

……

【14】

Jiang Shuo lay reclined on the ground, tears streaming down the corners of his eyes and wet his hair.On the ground was Qin Yiheng's blood, tears and blood mixed together, sticking to his hair and cheeks.

The memory that hit him instantly made him have a splitting headache and made his ears ring. He turned his body and lay flat on the ground face up.

"Da!" A drop of blood fell to his lips, and then slid down the curve of his lips, leaving a bloodstain.

"I remembered what to do..." Jiang Shuo muttered to himself, he got up from the ground, glanced at the old man at the door, and said, "I remembered, you also think Liuzhi is more suitable to be the master of this house ,Right?"

The old man did not speak, bowed his head, and gently closed the door from the outside, taking away the light outside the door and leaving the room in darkness.

【16】

"Qin Er, if you persist, I will definitely rescue you."

Jiang Shuo stared intently at Qin Yiheng who was hanging in mid-air, and drew out his dagger from the back of his waist, and slashed his palm, causing blood to flow out.

He sprinkled the blood on the eight-cornered candles, doused the candles with the blood, then walked to the center of the formation, sat down cross-legged, and put the string of copper coins on the cut palm until the blood from the wound on the palm soaked the string of copper coins red rope.

He spread his five fingers facing himself, and the string of copper coins in his hand began to sway and jingle, tiny blood foam flew out from the end of the red rope soaked in blood, and the wound on his palm was still oozing blood, staining the whole body red. A palm and half an arm.

【17】

"Ding Lingling—"

Jiang Shuo saw the familiar snowy land, but Qin Yiheng was not seen in the snow.Jiang Shuo looked around for the colorful cottage that he saw when he came to Qin Yihengxin's house, but the wind and snow were blowing here, and the surroundings were completely white. Where could there be any colorful wooden houses?

Jiang Shuo raised his arm to block the oncoming snowflakes. Looking under his arm, he saw a big protruding rock in the distance, which was very obvious here.

Jiang Shuo guessed that Qin Yiheng was probably there.

【18】

Jiang Shuo guessed right, Qin Yiheng was indeed there.

However, there was a small hot spring under the stone, and Qin Yiheng curled up naked at the bottom of the pool. The dense steam on the hot spring made his figure at the bottom of the pool blurry and unreal.

"Qin Er!" Jiang Shuo jumped into the hot spring, helped Qin Yiheng from the bottom of the pool, and patted his face, "Wake up, I'll take you out."

Qin Yiheng opened his eyes and saw Jiang Shuo with a blank face: "Who... are you?"

Jiang Shuo suddenly felt something was wrong.

Qin Yiheng broke away from Jiang Shuo's arms and walked away, leaning against the hot spring pool in a defensive posture, frowning, lowering his head, looking at Jiang Shuo carefully: "Who are you?"

"I'm Jiang Shuo! Qin Er, have you forgotten?" Jiang Shuo looked at Qin Yiheng's appearance and felt uncomfortable in his heart. He was trapped here for too long with six fingers, and he might have lost his mind—he was so proud and reserved on weekdays The old Qin Yiheng turned out to be like this.

"Jiang Shuo? Who is Jiang Shuo?" Qin Yiheng tilted his head and thought for a while, then asked, "Then who am I?"

"You are Qin Yiheng, a good friend of Jiang Shuo." Jiang Shuo imitated Qin Yiheng's gentle tone before, "I am Jiang Shuo, a good friend of Qin Yiheng."

"good friend?"

"Yes, you said that we have lived and died together, so we are friends."

Qin Yiheng was still in a daze.

Jiang Shuo slowly walked in front of him, stretched out his hand, and said, "Then make friends and introduce yourself formally. My name is Jiang Shuo."

Qin Yiheng didn't respond.

Jiang Shuo continued: "Doctor Qin's name is too unpleasant. You are the second child in your family. I will call you Qin Er in the future. How about it?"

Qin Yiheng still looked at him suspiciously.

Jiang Shuo slowly moved closer to Qin Yiheng, and said, "Why is your heart so cold?" while pulling out the red thread on his wrist.

"Xinzhai?" Qin Yiheng finally had a reaction.

"Go out and explain to you, I'm freezing to death." Jiang Shuo's tears rolled in his eyes, and he said to Qin Yiheng: "Give me your hand."

Qin Yiheng stretched out his left hand in a daze.

Jiang Shuo laughed with tears in his eyes, grabbed Qin Yiheng's right hand, and said, "This hand." Then he connected the two wrists with a red thread.

Seeing the red lines on the wrists of the two, Qin Yiheng suddenly remembered and burst into tears: "Jiang Shuo, you are here."

Jiang Shuo held Qin Yiheng's hand and said, "Close your eyes, don't think about anything, just trust me."

Qin Yiheng nodded and squeezed Jiang Shuo's hand tightly.

"Qin Er, I'll take you out."
