hermit meets king

Xu Sheng looked carefully, and there was a trace of tears in the corner of the boy's eyes.

He reached out and gently wiped him with the belly of his thumb.If he didn't guess wrong, when he was alone, it should be the three years when he stayed alone in the corner of the deep palace in Si Kou country.

Just like what the spies said, I don't even have a loyal servant by my side, and even if I do, I'm lying, it's better not to have one.

Xu Sheng looked at his soft fingers, surprised that he would reach out to wipe his tears away, probably the favored princes in the deep palace have their own merits, while the unfavored princes are probably the same.

When I was young, I was accompanied by my concubine mother, but since the concubine passed away, I lived alone in the deep palace for three years, enduring my uselessness and being careful everywhere.If you make a slight mistake, you will be lost forever.

How can you not understand that the kind of falling into a desolate place is full of fear of loneliness.I don't know whether to say it to the boy or to myself, "Then you don't want to be a bird, but want to be a dragon."

"Yeah." Si Koulin naturally couldn't understand, and he still babbled to himself, "I can play with crickets, the little eunuchs in the palace fight crickets. Actually, they don't know that I am the most powerful cricket." Step out of your own feet, "I can trample those crickets to death with one foot." Then he laughed, "All the crickets are afraid of me, I let them walk around the wall, and they walk around the wall .”

Si Koulin's heart moved slightly, and he asked tentatively, "Can you make them walk around the wall?"

"Of course." Si Koulin narrowed his eyes slightly, shook his head, and patted his chest, "I'm the king of crickets." "So powerful?" Xu Sheng smiled lightly. "certainly.

"Si Koulin leaned on the railing again, his voice gradually became quieter, and he said slowly..." Actually, I'm not that strong at all.

I was very afraid of "slowly crying as I spoke..." I was afraid that sometimes, there would be something that followed me suddenly, and sometimes I felt so big that I suddenly disappeared.

However, I dare not tell anyone, because no one will listen. "Could this be the legendary natural psychic? It seems that this child is not only weak-minded, but even has that kind of spiritual wisdom. If he suffers from hysteria and is invaded by sneaks, he will lose himself.

And he put himself into another empty place, or he was involuntarily and inexplicably attracted into it, and he still couldn't control himself. 500 years ago, people had three eyes, and 20 years ago there were ghosts, and there are still legends about immortals in Ulqi Mountain.

If what he says now is to be believed.

Xu Sheng stretched out his hand, ran along the child's head, and comforted him, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I saw and heard."

Si Koulin stretched out his hand and grabbed the corner of his clothes, quietly, as if he was afraid that he would run away.

In this way, the previous silence and restraint are not unreasonable.Did Si Kouguo know about those three years?

Or know, that's why the wandering fourth prince suddenly appeared, or don't know?Then why send such a clean and defenseless child here?

It seems that this world is not only contested by the Haoyuan Kingdom, but also the fierce tiger that is temporarily lying on its side.

Xu Sheng took the cloak, put it on Si Koulin, picked up the drunk and stupefied boy, hugged the boy to his chest, and drove the horse back to the mansion in the suburbs of Beijing.Another secret letter was sent to the carpenter Weng.

The next day, when Si Koulin woke up with a headache and brain swelling, the sun was already high.

The headache is severe, but the memory of yesterday is clear.Even down to the detail of what I said, I still remember it.

I thought I was mentally unbalanced to another dimension of emptiness.Unexpectedly, it was because of drinking.

He said so many heart and soul to that person yesterday, told all the secrets, would he think he was a monster?

Then?Then what to do?It is impossible to imagine that I have always been the fish and meat of my ancestors. All I can do is try my best to make myself normal, like an ordinary person.Be silent and minimize your presence.

But the secret that had been hidden for so long was suddenly revealed.

Why do you have to talk so much?Why so much talk?Every time you speak, you will be wrong, and every time you speak, you must be careful.Why did you do that yesterday?

Si Koulin buried himself in the quilt, annoyed and annoyed, angry and scared.

Until Xu Sheng knocked on the door, walked in, and saw the young man with his head buried in the quilt.He is obviously a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old, why does he still look like a child who can't grow up?

Is it because of the lack of memory, the influence of the environment, or the strange physique, so it is more primitive and natural, just like a child. "woke up?"

Si Koulin, who was in annoyance, heard Xu Sheng's voice, his back stiffened, but he didn't answer.

Xu Cheng smiled and came again.Like a small animal, do you naively think that the natural enemies will not notice you and ignore you if you don't hear it?Walked up and patted him on the shoulder, "What, do you have a headache?"

"No." Si Koulin got up to avoid his hand, and quickly glanced at Xu Sheng, as if there was no strange look on his face.

"Then get up and eat." Xu Sheng pulled out the quilt he was holding in his arms, and put it on the side of the bed.

Xu Sheng used to do this often.So it's not surprising that this child is sensitive and weak, and always needs people to think that he has a good starting point to force him to do something.To be pushed away.

Si Koulin lost the quilt in his hand, and followed Xu Sheng to the table.

The servants entered in a file, and immediately set up a table of his favorite dishes.

Xu Sheng took the chopsticks and stuffed them into his hands.

Holding the chopsticks, Si Koulin looked at the food on the table, as well as the person sitting next to him who was eating casually.All this is so common and so unusual.

It turns out that I have been here for more than a month, and I even have the habit of eating together, and I can even know what I like to eat from the fact that I have been resisting silence.

Looking at the people next to him, a pair of golden eyes were lowered, and he was concentrating on eating.

With deep and handsome facial features, he has the temperament of a soldier, and he is obviously a serious person.

I still remember how scared I was when I first met him.But now, she can sit and eat with him as usual.

Naturally, Xu Sheng knew that the young man was secretly looking at him, so he put a pinch of celery in his bowl.

The boy quickly withdrew his sneaky scrutiny, staring at the food in the bowl in a daze.So, will he be like everyone else?Or is it different from them?

"Why are you in a daze, eat quickly." Xu Sheng knocked on the bowl in front of Si Koulin, pulling him out of his thoughts.

Si Koulin buried his head in the bowl to eat, suddenly his eyes felt a little hot, it should be different, didn't he save his own life?

He didn't mention this matter, maybe he just thought he was drunk and didn't care.

In the afternoon, Si Koulin was taken to the backyard by Xu Sheng, with a wooden sword stuffed in his hand, "The body is too weak, so I have to practice martial arts and swords to strengthen my body."

Xu Sheng didn't mention this because people who are drunk can't be trusted completely.Reconfirmation is required.

And there is Si Kou country.But no matter what, this person must be used for himself in the end.And as the carpenter Weng said, the child now needs a strong will to control this ability.

Where is Si Kou Lin who is good at practicing martial arts?The posture of holding the wooden sword is like holding a wooden stick, straight and stiff.

Si Koulin deliberately recruited a martial arts coach from the army to teach him, but found that the child was very resistant, very uncooperative, and always wandering away.

Xu Sheng watched impatiently from the side, so he had to go down and teach him a few times, give him a good head start, and let him accept it quickly.

Si Koulin held the wooden sword with a pair of big hands wrapped around the back, warm and powerful.

"Fingers intertwined, thumb resting against the hilt of the sword." Xu Sheng broke his stiff fingers and taught him the correct posture for holding the sword.

According to the skills he taught, Si Koulin slowly gestured one by one, awkward but still learning it seriously.

After dinner in the evening, Xu Sheng received the news.Qi Wenxiu was actually poisoned and assassinated, but fortunately he only suffered some minor injuries, presumably it was done by the prince's people.

Xu Yanzhuo also got news that Qi Wenxiu was poisoned and assassinated, so he came to the small courtyard on the outskirts of the capital overnight.

Knocking on the door of the small courtyard at night, the servant opened the door and saw that it was Xu Yanzhuo, so he opened the door and let him in.

Xu Yanzhuo entered the courtyard, went straight to Qi Wenxiu's bedroom, and saw Qi Wenxiu lying on the bed with a pale face.

In the past, there was a free and easy arrogance in the scholarly air, but now it feels a little more fragile.He hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern, "Master Qi, where is the injury?"

"It's okay, it's just a small injury." Qi Wenxiu wanted to lift the quilt to salute Prince Rui.

"Why do you and I have to do this nonsense." Xu Yanzhuo hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, "Heal your wounds on the bed."

"How can a grassroots man be able to make the prince come here overnight." Qi Wenxiu lay on the bed and said, wanting to cup his hands.

"Don't move." Xu Yanzhuo also saw that the left shoulder should be injured, and he wished to cut Nasi's arm, which he had finally folded. How could there be an accident, "The prince must have a grudge, it's because the king did not act properly, That's why Mr. Qi is in such a dangerous situation."

"It has nothing to do with the lord, but I have to thank the lord for the Bi Yao Wan, so that the grass people escaped." Qi Wenxiu thanked Xu Yanzhuo.

"Since you have followed me, I will definitely protect you." Xu Yanzhuo knew that the prince would not let it go.

Qi Wenxiu looked at the resolute Prince Rui, but he couldn't understand the domineering Prince Rui with eight dragon balls.

If it was said that he treated himself with courtesy before because he wanted to win him over, then now it seems that he is really worried about his safety.

This time, he suffered some minor injuries intentionally, the purpose was to make the suspicious prince completely believe in himself, he was already on the same boat as him, and gained his trust.

Looking at it now, the effect is unexpectedly good, at least I miscalculated that the majestic prince will come to this remote place in the capital overnight, just to see his injury.

Seeing the tired look on Qi Wenxiu's face, Xu Yanzhuo didn't want to bother him too much, after all it was midnight.After taking his leave and returning to the mansion, he ordered his subordinates to bring Qi Wenxiu Biyao pills and golden soft armor overnight.

Qi Wenxiu looked at the two things on the box, whichever one he took out would be a treasure that was hard to find.
