Forbidden to talk about Fengyue

Chapter 29 Marrying a Junior Brother

Not far from Tangchi, there is a pavilion built on a high place, which is blocked by bamboo curtains on all sides.If it is windy, you can put down the bamboo curtain, and if you want to watch the moonlight, you can also pull up the bamboo curtain.There are several mats and four long tables in the pavilion.When Xie Xi led Pei back to the pavilion to rest, he took two quilts from inside and spread them on the mat: "The spring is cold, and you just came out of the soup pool, be careful of catching a cold."

"People who practice martial arts are not so delicate." That's what it said, but it's not a good thing for the cold to invade the skin.Pei Hui did not refuse Xie Xi's kindness, lay down on the quilt, and casually pulled one over his body.Supporting his chin with one hand, resting his elbows on the table: "Is this halfway up the mountain?"

Xie Xi was going to the front to pull open the bamboo curtain, and said without looking back, "It's on the top of the mountain."

The Lishan Pavilion was already halfway up the mountain, and they walked through many stone steps along the way, and they were already at the top of the mountain.It's just that this pavilion is chosen on the top of a mountain that is not too high or too steep, but the scenery is the best.As soon as Xie Xi finished speaking, the bamboo curtain was pulled open with a 'shua', revealing the beautiful scenery of the mountains and forests beyond the top of the mountain.

In March of Awakening of Insects, all things are born, the most splendid moment of spring.Two days ago, there were still bursts of spring thunder, and there was a hazy drizzle earlier, and now the air is fresh and comfortable.At first, everything is silent, but when you listen carefully, the forest is full of layers of insects and birds singing one after another, which is quite lively.The moonlight is bright and gentle, falling in the forest, standing on the pavilion overlooking the mountains and forests, it seems to be covered with a layer of silvery white brilliance, as beautiful as a fairyland.

The astonishment in Pei Hui's eyes hadn't recovered yet, and he saw Xie Xi with his back to the moonlight, with the fairyland-like forest and night sky behind him.The evening wind blew up his loose clothes, and a few strands of his long hair, which was tied up with a hairpin because of the hot spring, fell down and floated in the night sky with the wind.And Xie Xi's smile was gentler than the night.

"Is it good-looking?" Xie Xi asked.

Pei Hui murmured: "It's beautiful." Suddenly returning to his senses, his eyes fell on the bamboo mat on the ground, and he coughed twice and added: "It's a beautiful day."

Xie Xi folded his hands in his long sleeves like a Confucian scholar, and stepped forward with a gentle smile, "You wait for me for a while." Pei responded to wait for him, and he left the pavilion and did not appear again for a long time.

Pei Hui wrapped up the quilt, rolled himself up, and fell asleep on the bamboo mat.

When I woke up again, I smelled a strong fragrance.Pei Hui closed his eyes and raised his nose, unconsciously arched towards the direction of the fragrance, and opened his eyes suddenly when he was close at hand.In front of him was a bowl of delicious food with rich ingredients, delicious color, fragrance, and when he raised his eyes, he bumped into Xie Xi's eyes as dark as the night sky.Pei Hui: "What is this?" As he asked, he had consciously picked up the spoon.

"Chicken soup." Xie Xi took out a jar of wine and two wine glasses from behind him, filled each glass to [-]% full, and the color of the wine was a magnificent ruby ​​red.The aroma of the wine is very light, but the sweet aroma is relatively strong. "An pomegranate wine, I brewed it myself. This is the first bottle of wine from Kaifeng. I remember that senior brother likes sweets, so I just invited him to a banquet."

Pei Hui picked up a cup and took a small sip.The rich fruity aroma and light bouquet are well blended, and the sweetness spreads from the tip of the tongue to both sides, and finally smoothly into the throat.The lips and teeth are fragrant, refreshing and delicious.He was so addicted that he wanted to drink two more sips, but Xie Xi on the other side refused him to drink more.Xie Xi: "It's not advisable to drink on an empty stomach, fill your stomach first."

The chicken soup looks delicious too, it doesn't hurt to eat it first.After thinking about it, Pei Hui didn't refuse Xie Xi's proposal. He picked up the spoon to drink the soup first and then the meat. The soup was rich and delicious, and the meat was tender.There are many ingredients in the soup, all of which are delicious.

"You did it all?"

Xie Xi played with the wine glass with his left hand, sipped two sips from time to time, leaned on the long desk and looked at the bright moon.Hearing this, he looked back, with his right hand resting on the table, and his index finger knocked on the table one after another. "The live chicken I personally selected cut the throat, bleeds, scalds the water, plucks the hair and removes the bones, and then removes the bones when it is half-cooked. The bones of the whole chicken are completely removed without damaging the meat—"

Pei Hui was surprised: "How?"

The corners of Xie Xi's lips curved slightly: "I've done things like tear apart people's bones, do you think chickens have more bones than people?"

Pei Hui: "Not really." He paused for a moment, took two sips of soup, and then said, "I've broken bones before, but I haven't taken them apart, so I don't know."

Xie Xi smiled, and returned to the original topic: "After peeling and removing the bones, cut the meat into pieces, put it in the chicken broth, and add the prepared spices. Fragrant wine, prepared special sauce, tender bamboo shoots, mushrooms, Pine nuts and white walnuts are put in according to the time and steps and then boiled for another hour or so."

Pei Hui calculated the time: "It's less than an hour."

Xie Xi: "Sometimes you are in a hurry, you can use internal strength and fire to shorten the time required."

Pei Hui was speechless for a long while: "It's the first time I've seen someone use internal energy to cook to save time."

Xie Xi smiled gently: "You can't let senior brother wait."

Pei Hui: "..." silently pushed the chicken soup in front of Xie Xi, and put on a generous gesture: "Brother Xie, you have a taste too."

Xie Xi thought for a while, put down the wine glass, swallowed it with the spoon that was stretched out, tasted it, and it was not out of standard.Pei Hui wanted to get another spoonful, but Xie Xi refused, holding the wine glass in his hand again: "You eat, I'm not hungry."

Pei continued to eat without even thinking about it, but Xie Xi looked at the spoon with two people's saliva on his face, his expression was unclear.Xie Xi played with the wine glass with his left hand, took a sip from time to time, the cold and sweet pomegranate wine slipped from his lips and tongue into his throat, accompanied by the moonlight evening wind, it was quite elegant.Pei Hui had a few mouthfuls of chicken soup before drinking. He didn't hold a lot of alcohol, his face turned red quickly, his eyes sparkled, and he was in high spirits.

"Who harmed you with the poison on your body, do you have any idea?" Pei Hui simply held the wine jar and did not let go, asking a question that he had been curious about for a long time. "I asked Uncle Xue, and he said that the Peach Blossom Gu is a kind of Gu poison that has been lost for a long time, and it can only grow in the medicine people. If ordinary people are infected with the Peach Blossom Gu, they will die unless the Medicine People save them, but the Peach Blossom Gu is actually a medicine. The tonic used by the human race to strengthen the body. After the Yaoren clan was wiped out, the peach blossom Gu was lost. Now that the peach blossom Gu appears, it can only mean that the person who harmed you...raised the medicine people."

Xie Xi: "Uncle Xue... is the king of medicine, Miracle Doctor Xue?"

Pei nodded.

"No wonder." In fact, he had expected it a long time ago, but he was still surprised that the senior brother actually met the mysterious doctor Xue. "Brother, do you know where the last time I was poisoned by Gu poison was?"

Pei Hui shook his head: "I don't know." He never paid attention to Xie Xi's whereabouts, and only paid attention to his whereabouts when he went down the mountain in June to find him.The rest of the time, it's just gossip that even the disciples in the sect know better than him.

Xie Xi: "Jiangnan Songjiazhuang."

Pei Hui: "After Songjiazhuang was wiped out, news of the medicine man came out. If Songjiazhuang really raised a medicine man, it would not be too strange to be able to raise peach blossom Gu. But why did Songjiazhuang put peach blossom Gu on you? Do you have anything to do with them? hatred?"

Xie Xi shook his head: "There is no hatred."

His tone was firm and convincing.Compared with himself who was not familiar with Songjiazhuang, Xie Xi's judgment was obviously stronger, so Pei Hui thought for a while and didn't ask any more questions.Turning to mentioning the annual martial arts competition: "There are still three months until June, I hope these troublesome things can be resolved, so as not to delay the martial arts competition between you and me."

When he mentioned it, Xie Xi thought of this matter, and couldn't help but put down his glass and ask: "I've always wanted to ask, why does senior brother always want to compete with me?"

Pei Hui took a sip of his wine and glanced at Xie Xi: "In order to defeat you," inheriting the position of head of the Kunlun Yuxu Sect.

Xie Xi told the truth: "You can't beat me." Pei Hui has superb swordsmanship and talent, but lacks actual combat experience.When two swords fight each other, it is more ferocious than the one with thousands of horses rushing alone. "But it's not impossible to beat me."

Pei Hui had an expression willing to hear more about it: "How do you say it?"

Xie Xi hooked his fingers, wanting to leave the wine jar in his arms.It's not about taking it to drink, but sealing it up and putting it aside, and then said: "You are going to Jiangnan with me, you just want to get involved in some troubles, and you will inevitably see blood. Brother's sword hasn't been opened yet. blade?"

Last night when Pei went back to rescue him, the smell of blood on his body was almost gone.After Xie Xi came back, he asked privately that the person who faced Pei Hui last night was only injured and lost his action, and was finally silenced by the people in Xiaoyao Mansion.In other words, the senior brother has never killed anyone.A swordsman who has never killed anyone, even with superb swordsmanship, will lose to a third-rate swordsman who is fighting desperately.

Of course, he wouldn't just say this without a little embellishment.

Pei Hui replied honestly: "It has been opened."

Xie Xi: "Have you ever killed someone?"

Pei Hui: "...Never."

Xie Xi pointed his index finger at the table: "If you follow me to the south of the Yangtze River, you will definitely kill someone. Have you ever thought about this, brother?"

Pei Hui suddenly raised his eyes, his eyes were black and white, clear and clear.Xie Xi was slightly taken aback, at this moment he understood that his senior brother might know his flaws.

Sure enough, at the next moment, I heard Pei Hui say: "Master said that swords are used to see blood. Whether it kills people or saves them, they are all sharp weapons for cutting people. Uncle Xue also said that he has saved many people and killed many people." People. Many people died because of his poor medical skills, but after gaining experience, he knew how to avoid mistakes and saved many people. The master master also said that my sword is not bloody, and it can't kill people, let alone win you."

"So, there are two reasons for me to go to the south of the Yangtze River with you this time, and this is one of them." The other is naturally related to the Yaoren tribe. "Of course, it's also a reason to ensure that you are alive." Pei Hui slapped the table, climbed up to Xie Xi and made a strong promise: "Uncle Xue is also in the south of the Yangtze River. I will ask him more clearly when I find him, and he will definitely succeed next time!"

Xie Xi was silent for a moment: "Brother, are you drunk?"

Pei Hui didn't answer, just slipped and fell on the bamboo mat, resting his head on Xie Xi's lap, he was so drunk that he fell asleep and still remembered to grab his sleeve.Xie Xi looked down for a long time, snorted twice, grabbed the quilt and wrapped it around Pei Hui's body and stopped moving.Looking up at the magnificent moonlight in the mountains and forests outside the pavilion, he opened the wine jar and drank slowly, the more he drank, the more sober he became.

Thinking of Songjiazhuang in the south of the Yangtze River, the chill in my eyes is much colder than the cold spring breeze that I expected.

. . .

The sun rises in the east in the early morning, and the warm sunshine shines into the pavilion through the bamboo curtains. The birdsong is ethereal, and the spring breeze from the forest enters the ears, which is joyful and happy.Pei Hui woke up leisurely, in front of him was a soft silk dress, wrapped in a quilt, and as soon as he got up, he touched a tuft of long hair, and suddenly he was shocked.

"woke up?"

A low-pitched inquiry came from above his head, and Pei Hui raised his head and saw Xie Xi who was looking at the mountains and forests, and later realized that he was lying on Xie Xi's lap.He got up and pressed his forehead: "I was drunk last night?"

Xie Xi: "Headache?"

Pei Hui: "It's okay." He stood up and shook his arms and legs, and when he turned around, he saw Xie Xi still sitting where he was. "Aren't you going back?"

Xie Xi pointed to his thigh: "It's numb." I haven't moved all night, can my leg be numb?

Pei Hui squatted down, reached out to touch his thigh, and immediately heard Xie Xi shout: "Don't touch it!" Pei Hui was startled.Xie Xi waved his hand and said, "Just take it easy."

Pei Hui raised his eyebrows, and with a smile on his lips, he suddenly reached out and pressed Xie Xi's paralyzed thigh to touch several acupoints.Hearing Xie Xi gasp, he returned to normal after a while: "Thank you, brother, for your help."

Pei Huihui shot back: "You can solve it yourself...don't you like it? I'd rather wait for the numbness to disappear than tap acupuncture points to soothe my muscles and bones."

Xie Xi also stood up, "It's too exciting."

Seeing that he was fine, Pei Hui thanked him for what happened last night, and then the two went down the mountain and returned to Xiaoyao Mansion together.On the way back to the room, she met Chun Yuzhen with an ugly face, and there was no one around, so she stopped in the middle of the road and stared at Pei Hui and Xie Xi.Pei Hui thought she was looking for Xie Xi, and was about to leave when she heard her question: "Where did you go last night?"

Pei Hui stopped when he turned the corner, and looked at Chunyu Zhen with a natural questioning and betrayed anger.He felt strange in his heart that he never knew Chunyu Zhen—even though she acted as if she knew him.Then I heard that other people in Xiaoyao Mansion and Xie Xi himself didn't seem to recognize Chunyu Zhen, and they couldn't find out her origin, as if they jumped out of thin air.

If it wasn't for Chunyu Zhen who belonged to the Yaoren tribe like him, Pei Hui wouldn't have the patience to stay.On the other hand, Xie Xi's face was completely cold at this moment, "Miss Chunyu is questioning me and senior brother?"

Chun Yuzhen was startled when she touched the fierce evil spirit between Xie Xi's brows, her anxious and angry mood because the two of them hadn't returned all night was suddenly quenched by cold water, and finally she returned to her senses.She had known Xie Xi for more than ten years in her previous life, and she had seen his appearance when he was furious. He actually massacred the evil cult in red in one fell swoop, and forced back the Huns army that was approaching the border at that time. She clearly understood that the real Xie Xi was by no means as gentle as the rumors Elegant, how kind to act.

It was precisely those two major incidents that helped the male protagonist who was trapped in death, and those two major events became the key turning points for the male protagonist to ascend to the throne.But Chun Yuzhen knew that Xie Xi's two outbursts were due to the fact that Pei Hui was involved when the red-clothed cult and the Xiongnu army competed in the Central Plains.

Recalling the past, Chunyu Zhen was so startled that cold sweat broke out on her forehead, she didn't dare to act rashly again.But the jealousy hidden in the depths of my heart is like a cat's paw, and from time to time it sticks out and scratches twice, which makes my heart drip with blood, and I am about to go crazy with jealousy.

She is a modern person, and she will not be frightened by discovering Xie Xi's duplicity at all, let alone frightened by his cruel actions, on the contrary, she is even more fascinated.Killing the world for one person only made Chunyu Zhen's obsession become a crazy obsession.

She really wanted to replace Pei Hui as Xie Xi's sweetheart.

Unwilling and timid, Chunyuzhen plucked up her courage and said, "I... just worry about the safety of the Palace Master. The poison on the Palace Master's body is still lurking, threatening his life at all times. If I am always by the Palace Master's side, once the poison occurs, I can also save him. Got the palace master."

Xie Xi: "I told you, your medicine is useless."

"How can it be useless?" Chunyu Zhen said anxiously: "It must be useful! Didn't the Palace Master see that the toxin can indeed be suppressed? I haven't found a complete cure yet, but as long as I follow along You will definitely find a solution by your side. Maybe... maybe it will take time to slowly drive away the toxin—”

Xie Xi interrupted Chunyu Zhen, and asked coldly, "Miss Chunyu, do you know what kind of poison I have?"

Chunyu Zhen said nonchalantly: "What kind of poison? It should be very poisonous, what kind of poison... I, I need to think about it."

"Miss Chunyu didn't know what kind of poison was in me, so she claimed to be able to cure it, and she just took out a pill that could suppress the poison in me. Could Xie suspect that Miss Chunyu knew some truths that I didn't?" Xie Xi Expressionless, looking at Chunyu Zhen with extremely cold eyes. "Perhaps, I can doubt your purpose."

Chunyu Zhen was very anxious: "No, no, I have absolutely no bad intentions. I'm just... Palace Master Xinyue."

Xie Xi subconsciously glanced at Pei Hui, who folded his arms and retreated behind him, obviously not getting involved with his emotional problems.Xie Xi sighed silently, clapped his hands, and immediately two people appeared behind Chunyu Zhen. "Take it down and interrogate well."

Chunyu Zhen's eyes were shattered, and when she was about to beg for mercy, she was knocked out and taken away.After that, she was imprisoned in Xiaoyao Mansion dungeon until the plot was completely overturned and she came out. However, at that time, she had forgotten her memories of the previous two lives and became an ordinary girl.

Xie Xi: "Brother, let's go."

Pei Hui frowned, his lips moved, but he still didn't reveal the secret that Chunyu Zhen was the medicine man.There seemed to be a lot of secrets about her, and it was not known where she came from at the moment, and it was a little help from his fellow clansman not to mention that she was a medicine man.No matter how much it is, it cannot be done, after all, it is a matter of Xie Xi's residence.

"You have attracted a lot of hatred."

Xie Xi chuckled: "People are in the Jianghu, and it is inevitable that they will attract hatred."

Pei Hui glanced at him and said nothing.When they separated at the fork in the path, Xie Xi went back to his yard, while Pei Hui saw Wang Suibi in the yard.Wang Suibi was originally squatting on the steps of the courtyard, tucking his knees and watching the ants move boredly. When he saw Pei Hui, he immediately went up to him: "Brother, that dead fat ball brought a letter from the master and uncles in the mountain, and strongly urges you to go back." .There are also brothers and sisters in the door who are also asking you to go back. If you don't go back, they will all die."

Kunlun is divided into five factions, and the affairs of the five hills are all in charge of the big brother Pei Hui. Every year when he leaves in June, he will hand over the affairs in advance and make arrangements before leaving.There was an unexpected situation in March this year, and he left in such a hurry that the sect is now in chaos. The uncles in Kunlun thought that Pei Hui would only go out for a few days, but now they heard that he was going to Jiangnan, and they regretted it to death.

"Also, Fat Ball is losing his temper."

As soon as the words fell, a round figure with a big slap quickly rolled out of the room, slapped Wang Suibi's face, and finally climbed to the top of his head, with a round belly proudly staring at Wang Suibi with its black bean eyes. Pei Hui.While flapping his wings, he protested with a quack, and then got into Pei Hui's skirt after protesting, only showing his head.

This fat bird with red hair and black spots is the delicate kestrel raised by Pei Hui. It's name is Hydrangea, and people in the sect often call Fat Ball behind their backs.But no one dares to shout in front of Hydrangea, because it is very fragile psychologically, and it will be so depressed that it will go on a hunger strike when others say it is fat.

Pei Hui touched the hydrangea and walked into the house. "You go back first. I'll go to Jiangnan to see Uncle Xue tomorrow. I won't waste much time before I go back."

Wang Suibi pouted: "Brother, why do you want to take care of Brother Xie's affairs?"

Pei Hui glanced at him in surprise: "Don't you admire Junior Brother Xie very much?" Among the five Kunlun factions, Xie Xi was the only one with the most famous reputation, but many people admired him, and Wang Suibi was one of them.

Wang Suibi: "Distance produces beauty. Because of him, senior brother can't go back as soon as possible, and now many people in the sect complain about senior brother Xie."

Pei Hui shook his head: "I'm saving people, and they can't even handle such trivial matters well. How can I hand things over to them in the future?"

Wang Suibi was puzzled: "Isn't there still a senior brother?"

Pei Hui snorted and smiled, his face was expressionless and indifferent.He is going to be the head of the Kunlun Yuxu Sect in the future, and the heads are all hands-off shopkeepers, who don't do anything and leave it to the disciples to worry about.Otherwise, why would he risk his life to be the head?It's not that I want to be a hands-off shopkeeper.

Wang Suibi saw that her senior brother did not speak, and her decision to go to the south of the Yangtze River would not be changed, so she said dejectedly, "Okay then, I'll go back and talk to Master."

Pei Hui: "Yes."

"That's right!" Wang Suibi boxed right and turned left, looking as excited as the three aunts and six wives in the village at the foot of the mountain. "The surviving lady of Songjiazhuang in the south of the Yangtze River lives in Fengyulou. She claims that she knows where the medicine man is, and that she got a treasure map by chance. If someone can find out the real culprit, she will avenge Songjiazhuang. She, Song Cailan, will bring it with her." Yaoren and Zangbaotu were married, and I heard that Song Cailan is still the most beautiful woman in the south of the Yangtze River. Of course, these are not interesting enough. Song Cailan named Brother Xie and asked him if he was a man and a real gentleman? If so, please ask him to fulfill the marriage contract between the two , marry her as his wife and revive Songjiazhuang."

Pei Hui was a little surprised this time: "Xie Xi has an engagement with Song Cailan?"

Wang Suibi laughed: "Surprisingly, isn't it? None of us knew, but that's what Song Cailan said in Fengyulou. Miss Miao was furious when she found out, and Miss Cheng also said that the two of them had nothing to do with each other. relationship, Song Cailan is talking nonsense."

"Everyone in the world knows what she said in the Wind and Rain Building. It doesn't have to be a lie, otherwise it's an irresistible lie. No one would be so stupid."

The Fengyu Tower is a world-renowned intelligence and news building. Any news and anecdotes can be bought in the Fengyu Tower, and at the same time, the Fengyu Tower can also be used to deliver news.Otherwise, how could the news reach Xiaoyao Mansion within a day after Song Cailan said it?It was she who spent money to let Fengyulou spread her words to the world, forcing Xie Xi to help.

Pei Hui: "While she has the bargaining chips of the medicine man and the treasure map, she also said that she has a marriage contract, probably because she is worried that Junior Brother Xie will not make a move, so it is better to act first. I am afraid that the marriage contract is true, but there are other secrets that are also true. By the way, some people believe that the treasure map is real?"

Even if he stayed on the top of the snow-capped mountains all year round, he also knew that treasure maps appeared every now and then in the rivers and lakes, and there were many stories in the scriptures, so few people now believed in the so-called treasure maps.If there is a treasure map, why don't people dig it out if they already have the map?Do you have to wait until someone finds out that you are guilty of committing a crime, and then you will be killed?

Wang Suibi: "I heard it's true. The treasure map is called Mu Huan Treasure Land, the lost treasures of General Wei Chengzhong of the former dynasty."

During the rebellion of the Wei family in Hexi, a great family with hundreds of years of experience in the previous dynasty, General Wei Chengzhong transferred the wealth accumulated in the family for hundreds of years, but encountered enemies on the way back.The two sides fought, and neither survived, and both died, and the whereabouts of the treasure were unknown.After losing this batch of treasures, the Wei family was quickly defeated and withdrew from the battlefield of world competition, and disappeared within a year.The huge family has collapsed.

But if Chunyuzhen was present, she would know that the Wei family did not lose, but changed their name and surname, and walked in the court with integrity.The male lead is a descendant of the Wei family.

And the place where the lost treasures are stored is called Mu Huan Baodi.

On the other side, Xie Xi reacted coldly after learning what Song Cailan had said in the Wind and Rain Tower.When Yang Mingdao heard the news, he rushed back halfway to see Xie Xi's reaction, and felt bored when he saw it.

Yang Mingdao: "Xie Xi, do you really have an engagement with that Song Cailan?"

Hearing this, Miao Ying watched eagerly, waiting for Xie Xi to deny it.Cheng Bing also raised his head, looking at Xie Xi with a restrained expression.Xie Xi fiddled with the potted flower in front of him, and smiled: "It's true."

Miao Ying and Cheng Bing's eyes dimmed at the same time, and Yang Mingdao showed a playful smile.

Xie Xi turned his back to everyone, staring at the gorgeous flowers, under the warm sun, his eyes were cold and indifferent.
