On the day she returned to Jincheng, Xie Yulan was a little timid to be close to her hometown.

Ever since he killed the murderer, he followed Qin Lanzhi back to Wanhe Mountain, and he never went down the mountain again. Afterwards, he was retaliated by Jiang's family. He was in a daze for several months and almost lost his life.When I come back now, there is an illusion like a world away.

The burnt house of Xie's family was still there, Qin Lanzhi sent people to guard it, and no one dared to disturb it.

I haven't seen it for a few years, and the house in my memory no longer looks like it used to. The house number is blackened by smoke, and the eaves are covered with knee-deep weeds. The water in the pond has dried up, and fish bones are scattered in the dry pond. The bottom was mottled and scattered by wild birds and wild cats.

In the side yard by the back door, there used to be corpses lying on the ground, with blood pools everywhere. At this time, the doors and windows of the back kitchen were wide open, and there seemed to be brown blood stains on the ground that could not be washed off, covered by dust, leaving only the footprints of small wild animals that occasionally visited.

Under the beam of the kitchen room, there are actually a few more swallow nests.

Qin Lanzhi accompanied Xie Yulan to look around, and when they arrived at the courtyard where the brothers lived, Xie Yulan wanted to push the door in, but hesitated.

Qin Lanzhi held his hand: "Don't be afraid, I'll be with you."

Xie Yulan pursed her lower lip, her fingers trembled slightly, and she closed her eyes: "I'm not afraid, I'm just..."

"I know." Qin Lanzhi nodded, "You just don't know how to face it."

Xie Yulan turned her head and looked at the man, smiled wryly: "You know?"

"If I still don't understand, I don't deserve to be with you."

"Nonsense." Xie Yulan hooked Qin Lanzhi's finger lightly, and whispered, "I was the one who refused to tell you before, but you are not the roundworm in my stomach. Where did you know? That's not your problem."

"Don't hide anything from me in the future." With a sigh in his eyes, Qin Lanzhi embraced his lover's waist and placed a kiss on the forehead, as if to comfort and pity, "Even if I can't help, I can listen to you, It would be nice to share some sorrow for you."

Xie Yulan nodded and smiled: "Yes."

After talking with Qin Lanzhi for a while, he calmed down a lot.Although he was a coward once and hid behind Qin Lan, the murderer had already been executed, and the Jiang family was also at sunset. After Jiang Leize stepped down from the position of leader, everyone pushed him against the wall, and it was even more difficult to get up again.Now that he has come back to rebuild Xie's house, he has made up for some guilt and self-blame.

The hinge of the door was old and loose, and there was an ear-piercing creaking sound when it was pushed. As the courtyard gate slowly opened, scenes from the past flashed by: Xie Yulan seemed to see her young self running in and out behind her brothers, naughty Being punished by his father, hugged and coaxed by his mother when he was wronged, and the old butler and other senior brothers...

The huge yard was covered by withered and yellow weeds, and the stone road had long since disappeared.

Wildflowers are flourishing, and the morning glory in the corner hovers upwards, covering the walls and beams.Once with my family, the grape trellis fell down, but unknown white flowers grew on the spot, with large and full petals, complex and gorgeous layers, moving in the wind, as if welcoming him home with a light smile.

Inexplicably, a large piece of watermelon grew in the backyard, the mouth of the well was covered by vines, the water tank was covered with moss, and one of the empty water tanks actually had a nest of small animals.

Half of the houses that were burnt down were dilapidated and ruined, and half of them seemed to be left in the past. Only the color of the wall paint was slightly peeled off, and the pillars and window lattices were still the same as before.

It's just that the wind chimes stopped ringing a long time ago, and they were pulled around by the wind, quietly.

Xie Yulan walked through the bedroom and study room, every place seemed to have the shadow of the past but became extremely strange.

The intact calligraphy, paintings and antique porcelain in the house had been moved to Wanhe Palace by Qin Lanzhi a long time ago. It was empty and there was nothing left.

Xie Yulan sat on the edge of the window and leaned back slightly. Qin Lanzhi stood outside the window, holding his wife's shoulders and letting her fall into her arms at will: "Are you okay?"

"Ah."

In fact, it is not as sad as I imagined. Time slowly buried everything and stimulated new vitality. The trees in the courtyard have grown a lot, and no one has pruned them for so many years. There is also a lot of artistic conception.

Whether it's the old house, friends from the past or anything else, even the major chaos in the rivers and lakes have been moving forward.Those strange people and strange things in the rivers and lakes are constantly changing, the stories in the teahouse are no longer the same as before, and the porridge shop of the Liu family is becoming more and more lively. Xiaoyue'er found her father, and Qin Lanzhi knew the secret she was hiding.

Everything is changing, only my own stupidity, always immersed in the past, unable to turn around.

It's time for him to learn to move on, too.

"Let's go." Xie Yulan held Qin Lanzhi's hand and jumped out of the window.

Qin Lanzhi raised her eyebrows: "Don't you want to look elsewhere?"

"Don't look at it."

They went to the ancestral hall of Xie's family, offered incense, and saluted.

Xie Yulan knelt on the futon and introduced Qin Lanzhi to her family. He kept smiling slightly when he spoke, and his eyes were gentle but firm. Qin Lanzhi looked at him intently, knowing in his heart that the other party really came out this time. .

After that, Qin Lanzhi helped Xie Yulan rebuild Xie's house, and tried his best to preserve the appearance of the old house and carried out extensive renovations.The Xie family became lively again, and the people in Jincheng discussed in low voices: I wonder if Xie Yulan will keep in touch with Wanhe Palace after she comes back this time?After all, the other party is a demon sect, and the Xie family is a well-known decent sect. Although it has declined now, its status has risen instead of falling because of the tragedy, and it has become a great legend in the world.

After all, if this hadn't happened, it would be hard to say whether the position of leader would fall to the Jiang family.

There will always be exaggeration in this rumor. Instead, everyone thinks that the Xie family has deep roots, and his ability cannot be underestimated. Even the teahouse storyteller likes the Liu family who is always bound to the Xie family, and even makes knives from it. The technology is amazing, so it naturally made the Xie family a bit mysterious.

Now it's not just people in the Jianghu, even ordinary people who don't know much about Jianghu, there are few who have never heard of the name of Xie's family.

Whether there is any deliberate guidance and instigation by Wanhe Palace, no one can say. Ask Qin Lanzhi, and Qin Lanzhi will definitely not admit it.

But the news about the rebuilding of Xie's house was widely spread. The renovation of the house has not yet been completed. After hearing the news, there are many young people who want to be under the door. Those who are active and enthusiastic will not wait for the new boss Xie Yulan. The door agreed, and followed the craftsmen to help repair the house.

Not long after, the name of the Xie family reappeared on the list of the Golden Pavilion. Because of various rumors from the outside world and the fact that it was backed by Wanhe Palace, Xie Yulan's name jumped into the top [-], overwhelming the Jiang family.

The Jiang family's ranking is getting lower and lower. Even with Jiang Leize's support, the overall ranking is about to fall below the top [-].

The Xie family was being rebuilt like a raging fire, and Wanhe Palace did not lose its reputation.

Hua San became the leader of the alliance, supported many female-dominated sects, gave them more right to speak and participate, even suppressed the old sects dominated by several big families, and supported some good ones. Emerging faction.

The young head of the sect became active, since he had the opportunity to stand out, he would naturally not object to Hua San.

On the other hand, the old sect is too pedantic, and clings to its own martial arts cheats, not only distinguishing internal and external disciples, but also emphasizing "marriage bloodlines between sects and sects", which narrows the horizon and narrows the path. Go narrower.

Xie Yulan changed the previous rules, took out the Xie family's martial arts and shared it with everyone, carried it forward, recruited talented disciples one after another, and used the most precious of the Xie family, the "Yunliu knife technique" that must use the "hidden knife" to achieve the best effect. "Explore and improve, and finally broke through the restriction of the "hidden knife", allowing the Xie family's ranking to move forward again.

All of these, even Xie Yulan's hard work, cannot do without the support behind Wanhe Palace.

Qin Lanzhi personally led people to participate in several martial arts conferences, allowing everyone to deeply understand the strength of Wanhe Palace, and even opened a storehouse to rescue many refugees during a severe drought.

Among them, the news that the genius doctor of Xuanhu Jishi lived in Wanhe Palace also helped Wanhe Palace win a lot of positive voices.

Time flies, time flies, Wanhe Palace is no longer bound to the word "Demon Sect", and gradually, many people, no matter because of profit or conspiracy, have come out to prove Wanhe's In fact, Gong never harmed the sky, but some people in the Wulin League forcibly buckled each other's hats for the purpose of "people in the rivers and lakes must have a consistent hatred target to facilitate management."

Such a statement once again caused an uproar in the martial arts, and the emerging forces took advantage of this opportunity to completely suppress many old sects.

It's summer again.

Xie Yulan looked at the letter from Hua San, holding a bowl of chilled lychees, her lips were gorgeous and moist after eating, and said with emotion: "Sure enough, wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. After all, rivers and lakes are nothing but people's hearts."

Qin Lanzhi was afraid that his daughter-in-law would be hot, so she fanned her lightly with a fan, and asked Xiaoyue to go to the ice cellar to get some more ice, and put it in a special ice box to keep her daughter-in-law cooler.

He answered absently, "No."

Xie Yulan kicked him amusedly: "Master Qin, you are no longer a 'religious leader', you have to change it to a 'Palace Master'."

"You can call it whatever you like." Qin Lanzhi said indifferently, "It's just a title."

Xie Yulan picked up a lychee and fed it to the man, but the other party bit her finger and couldn't pull it out, so she said helplessly, "Let go."

"Hmm." Qin Lanzhi moved the tip of her tongue lightly, making Xie Yulan blush.

"Let's see it later!"

"What are you afraid of?" Qin Lanzhi sipped the lychee, the sweet taste was not as good as the blushing appearance of his wife, "They should have gotten used to it by now."

People in Wanhe Palace are indeed used to it, but now the Xie family still has many disciples.

Just as they were making a fuss, a disciple passed by outside the window, holding a book in his hand and politely said: "Master... ah!"

He hurriedly turned his head, his whole face was flushed red, and he apologized repeatedly: "The disciple didn't do it on purpose..."

Xie Yulan was so ashamed that she got up and broke away from Qin Lanzhi's entanglement, and she didn't forget to carry a lychee and walked out the door: "You stay by yourself! I'm leaving!"

He greeted his disciples, flung his long sleeves, and ran away at a fast speed. Qin Lanzhi covered his face with a smile, and muttered to himself: "All the disciples brought out by my wife are like him, and they blush easily. Tsk."

The hidden guard of Wanhe Palace: "..."

In other words, the thick-skinned people in Wanhe Palace thought that it was you who brought them out?

As the saying goes, the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked.

In the evening, Master Xie and his disciples Lai studied the exercises together. In the summer, he was already sweating, and the clothes behind him were soaked.

But everyone was so excited that they didn't feel anything at all, and some of them took off their shirts carelessly, revealing their wheat-colored strong bodies, and fought with Xie Yulan.Xie's lightness kung fu was perfect, so he saw figures swaying all over the sky, leaves rustling and falling, without stopping for a long time.

Qin Lanzhi's face turned dark when he found him, and when Xie Yulan landed on the ground, he carried him on his shoulders, as if he wanted to "rob the civilian man by force".

Disciples: "..."

Xie Yulan was embarrassed: "You let me down! How decent is it?!"

Qin Lanzhi said displeasedly: "Practicing martial arts is practicing martial arts. What's the matter if you're all naked?"

Xie Yulan: "...I didn't take it off!"

"Not all the same!"

Qin Lanzhi took the people and left without looking back: "Go back and take a bath, isn't Master Xie very clean? It's going to stink!"

Xie Yulan hurriedly propped up her body, sniffed herself: "No way?"

Qin Lanzhi snorted, his air pressure was extremely low, as if several mobile ice boxes were hung around his body, and he was too cold to speak.

After they left, all the disciples breathed a sigh of relief, covering their chests, and putting on their clothes, they seemed a little flustered.

Tsk, practicing martial arts well, I didn't think there was anything wrong at first, but when Master Qin came, why did it feel so wrong?

In short, from now on, no one dared to take off their clothes in an "unseemly" way in front of the head.
