A gentleman is not a group

The place was chosen by Zhou Chi, and it is said that this is the only place that is unique. All the way along the way, I only heard Zhou Chi boasting non-stop, and Xie Jianmian hummed once or twice to signal that he was listening.

"Let me tell you, that place is on the outskirts of the city. In spring, it is full of mountain flowers, and all kinds of butterflies are flying non-stop. It is very beautiful. There is also a small waterfall, which is clear and cool, and there are many wild fruits.

The most important thing is that no one knows about it, keep it quiet, I discovered it myself and never told anyone else, you are the first one, be content. "

"Well, yes, thank you Catcher Zhou." Xie Jianmian didn't bother to talk to him, and nodded perfunctorily.

Then he thought of something, smiled and approached, "But...it's quiet and hard to find, what does Catcher Zhou want to do? Hmm?"

Sure enough, Zhou Chi put away his long speech, gave him a blank look, shook off the hand that was drawn up and walked forward.

Behind him, Xie Jianmian, who was in a good mood, laughed and followed quickly, humming an unknown tune and surpassing Zhou Chi, walking extremely briskly.

But after a few brisk steps, Mr. Xie, who didn't know the way, stopped at the corner and hesitated, and had to wait for the policeman behind to lead the way.

After waiting for a while, Zhou Chi did not follow up. Xie Jianmian turned around in doubt, but saw Zhou Chi standing in front of a dilapidated house, wondering what he was thinking.

Xie Jianmian had no choice but to turn back, Zhou Chi stood in front of the door in a daze as if he hadn't seen him.

It seemed to be a courtyard of some kind of noble family, surrounded by extremely wide walls, bigger than any one he had seen in Jinzhou these days, the dark gate was closed tightly, and a plaque made of nanmu was hung on it, with real gold characters faintly visible The word "Zhou Zhai" on the plaque.

This must be an extremely prominent family back then, but it has been abandoned for many years for some reason, the majestic door is covered with scorched black from the fire, and the green grass beside the stone steps in front of the door is half as high as a person, drowning out the splendor.

For some reason, Xie Jianmian felt that he smelled a bloody smell, which made him a little indescribably depressed.

Feeling the pressure on his shoulders, Zhou Chi trembled subconsciously. He broke free from the deep and endless memories, and turned his head to meet Xie Jianmian's inquiring eyes.

"What are you looking at?"

Xie Jianmian stretched out his hand and waved in front of his eyes to make sure that the man's soul was in place, and asked hesitantly.

"It's nothing..." Zhou Chi pinched the center of his brows hard, but he didn't let go of his frowning brows. He was silent for a moment and then said, "Look at this family, it was the most prominent family in Jinzhou more than ten years ago. Businessmen, starting from scratch, have accumulated for generations. How many people who climbed to power and became rich flocked to them back then, and the fawning people could line up from the door to the end of this street, but so what. I don’t know who offended someone, overnight They're all dead, only ash is left."

When Zhou Chi said this, there was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, but his lips were extremely tight. He didn't even notice it, but it all fell into Xie Jianmian's eyes.

Xie Jianmian tentatively said: "I see that the plaque says "Zhou's House", and your surname is also Zhou..."

In just a moment, the seriousness and exhaustion on Zhou Chi's face were all gone, and the slovenly and irritating Detective Zhou came back soon, the sarcasm in his eyes was replaced by pickiness, he glanced up and down at Xie Jianmian, and said: So, the owner of Liuyun Villa is still surnamed Xie."

Xie Jianmian's expression suddenly became very strange, Zhou Chi's heart trembled, and an incredible guess flashed through, before he dared to think about it, he heard Xie Jianmian speak.

"That's my dad."

Zhou Chi: "..."

He knew early in the morning that Xie Jianmian's background was not simple, and he would definitely not be the son of someone else, but he didn't expect it to be so simple.He turned out to be the son of the owner of Liuyun Villa, the genuine "Master Xie".

This is not some shady identity, what was the little thief hiding earlier, Zhou Chi was puzzled.

But after thinking about it, what is Liuyun Villa, the most powerful force in the world, such a resounding signboard, such a big tree that attracts wind, but the owner's son's martial arts skills are so good, he probably has to hide it.

Yesterday, his subordinates turned into big shots in the Jianghu world, Zhou Chi felt that this psychological gap was a bit big.

He said sourly: "It turns out that it is really Mr. Xie, disrespect, disrespect."

"By the way, I admire your father very much."

"He." Xie Jianmian twitched the corner of his mouth indifferently, "He's just an old-fashioned guy who only knows how to practice martial arts. Zhou Butou, you really have no taste. It's better to admire me than to admire him..."

"What do you admire? Poor kung fu? Sneaking? Or... casually hooking up with people?"

Xie Jianmian gave a "tsk" and sighed, "Didn't you realize that my qinggong is better than yours?"

"I found it, I found it." Zhou Chi held back his smile, and raised his hand to smooth the long black hair of the person next to him, "But since you are the son of Master Xie, why didn't you learn kung fu well?" ?”

"I don't want to learn. When my father asked me to practice martial arts when I was young, I would cry in my mother's arms. With my mother as a backer, my father would not dare to force me."

Xie Jianmian lifted his thin eyelids to face the sun, his profile was shining brightly, "Besides, I've learned the lightness kung fu well, if I can't beat it, I'll just run away, if others can't catch up with me, it's fine."

This tone is very in line with Mr. Xie's behavior style, Zhou Chi was not surprised at all, but was a little worried for Mr. Xie.

Joking and jokes along the way, the fairyland-like valley that Zhou Chi was talking about soon arrived.It's just... Xie Jianmian stared at the scene in front of him, and froze in place as if struck by lightning.

I saw that there was no grass growing in the valley, it was bare and yellow, it was really big, and it was so wide that there was no limit, but I couldn’t find any flowers, not even a single butterfly, which was the wonderful place described by Zhou Chi. It's a thousand miles away, if you insist on saying which one fits, it's probably desolate and quiet.

Xie Jianmian's Adam's apple rolled, and he choked out a sentence after a while: "This is what you said...it really looks good."

The scene in front of him was so psychedelic that even Zhou Chi couldn't help being a little embarrassed. He coughed lightly and said embarrassingly, "It wasn't like this last time I came here."

"When was the last time?"

Zhou Chi: "Two years ago..."

Mr. Xie's words were sharp, and he immediately grasped the lifeblood.He really wanted to slap Zhou Chi back to an hour ago, so that he could listen to his nonsense.But after all, it has come, and although it is not very elegant, it is enough to take a walk.

"Forget it, let's leave it at that." Xie Jianmian decided in a good-tempered manner not to care about it any more, and if it came, he would be at ease, after all, it was Zhou Butou's heart, so it was hard for him.

Zhou Chi touched his nose in embarrassment, trying to save the face he lost two years ago: "Then I will take you away."

As soon as the voice fell, there was a burst of "rumbling" thunder, and the sky that had been clear and thin just now suddenly turned overcast, gray clouds covered the sun, and the surroundings instantly became as dark as the sun was sinking.

Zhou Chi suspected that he should not go out today, and the place where he wanted to offer his treasures would collapse like a living person, but just as he swore that the weather would turn around, there would be thunder and thunder, and he was afraid that God was deliberately embarrassing him.

A few muffled thunder rolled, and the pouring rain fell in an instant. It stands to reason that spring rain is as expensive as oil, and no matter how rainy it is during the Ching Ming season, it can’t be like this.

Not caring about face, Zhou Chi took off his outer shirt, put it on the heads of the two, and ran forward with Xie Jianmian in his arms.

It must be impossible to go back at this time, so I had to look around to see if there were any caves nearby to shelter from the rain.

Xie Jianmian was caged under Zhou Chi's robe like a chicken, with his warm and strong arms pressed against his back.

But after all, the clothes cannot withstand the rain, no matter how carefully you protect them, they will get completely wet in just a moment.

Zhou Butou led people to choose a secluded place when they went to Qingqing, and now he suffered retribution, and he couldn't find someone else's house.

Fortunately, there is a cave not far away, not too wide, but enough for two people to go in and have a rest.

Before the end of spring, the weather was already a bit cool, and after the heavy rain, it became a bit damp and cold.His clothes were soaked through, wrapped around his body like cold stones, it was really cold.

Zhou Chi put down his hand holding his outer shirt, drained the rainwater vigorously, his eyes flicked past Xie Jianmian as he moved——

The rain-soaked clothes covered the body drippingly, the thin waist was submerged under the tight corset, and the slender limbs were faintly visible, carrying the breath of green grass and spring rain, sweeping into the entire narrow cave in all directions.

Zhou Zhi's throat was a little tight, and the heat rushed in instantly, and his body, which was still cold just now, seemed to be about to boil at this moment.

He looked away unnaturally, saw Xie Jianmian shivering from the cold from the corner of his eye, and subconsciously wanted to wrap him tightly with a coat from head to toe. I gave half of the clothes to Mr. Xie.

"Cold?"

"good."

Xie Jianmian was stubborn, shaking and trying to be brave.

Although the cave is small, fortunately there are a few unknown plants growing in the cave, perhaps because the growth space is too narrow, they are all short and weak, very pitiful, but the fire should be enough.

Zhou Chi pulled up the few branches that were about to dry up, gathered them into a ball, and picked up two sharp stones to strike for a while, a few sparks appeared, and the branches were instantly ignited, and the warm light instantly enveloped the dark and cold cave to dispel the intruding cold breath.

"Sit over there for a while." Zhou Chi pointed to the burning fire, and couldn't help but yelled again, "It's like shaking like something, it's not cold yet."

Xie Jianmian didn't intend to make things difficult for him, and obediently moved over to warm the fire contentedly, until the temperature of his hands gradually rose, Zhou Chi was still standing where he was just now, and he didn't have any intention of coming over to sit, Xie Jianmian was still shaking with some wet clothes, asked : "Why don't you come over and bake?"

Zhou Chi, who had been distracted since just now, sat down beside the fire slowly, with a distance of one person between him and Xie Jianmian.

Xie Jianmian gave him a strange look, and was so surprised that Zhou Budou became so engrossed after being drenched in the rain.
