cowards and heroes

After raising her for two months, Xiao Jiu's body finally gained some flesh.

It's autumn now, but Yang Junze's mansion seems to be isolated from the world, the bamboo forest is still extremely green, except for the occasional breeze blowing by, bringing a cool feeling, Xiao Jiu doesn't know how time flies so fast.

Compared with the days when he first arrived, Xiao Jiu now feels that one day is not enough.

Yang Junze taught him to read and write.

Yang Junze also said that after he recognized the basic characters, he would be taught to write.

Xiao Jiu is not stupid, but a bit smart. His needs and interest in knowledge are increasing day by day, but his ability is always limited.

The first word I remember is his name.

I remember that day when Yang Junze wrote his name on the white paper, he was very excited and moved, his eyes even got wet - that was the only gift left by his parents.

The second thing I remembered was Yang Junze's name.

Xiao Jiu didn't remember it on purpose, but Yang Junze always added his own name next to his name after writing down his name. The sense of presence was so strong that people couldn't ignore it.

Moreover, after what happened last time, Xiao Jiu felt that the relationship between the two was different from before.

As Yang Junze has more time to stay in the mansion, and the two have more time to get along, Xiao Jiu feels that he treats her differently. He will pay attention to his mood, value his thoughts, and accompany him in what he wants to do. with him.

Xiao Jiu thinks this kind of change is good, because getting along with Yang Junze like this will make him feel at ease, make him feel at ease, even fascinate him, and make his heart skip a beat.

Because of this, Xiao Jiu also became bolder in the mansion. I remember that not long after he recovered, he pulled Yang Junze and asked, "That man said, I belong to you, why didn't you clarify?" After speaking, he was obviously embarrassed, The tips of her ears were red, and her peach blossom eyes were twinkling.

"What? The voice is too low." Yang Junze laughed.

"That, that!" Xiao Jiu seemed a little annoyed, and spoke in a hurry.

Yang Junze saw that it was really funny, but pretended to be ignorant: "That's what you're talking about?"

Xiao Jiu stomped his feet and stared at him with an unteachable expression, "That's the one."

"Which one is that?"

"That's Master Rabbit!" Xiao Jiu said angrily, "Ah!" He closed his mouth quickly, blushing, making him feel guilty.

Yang Junze is the Jianghu, No. 1 in the martial arts world, no matter how anyone looks at him, he is the one who took advantage of the big ones.

Yang Junze saw that he lowered his head, and saw from his angle that the tip of his nose and ears were red and tender, so he stroked his hair and said, "I don't see you as a rabbit, and I don't know about the rumors." Where did it come from, if you mind, I will solve it."

Speaking of which you don't seem to mind.

Xiao Jiu pursed his lips, and said, "What I care about is the title Master Rabbit." He paused, and then felt that the words were crooked, and added: "I'm a man, why are people calling me like a woman?" .”

"Understood, you should read the characters first." Yang Junze nodded and said.

Although he looked fine on the surface and his tone was flat, Xiao Jiu knew he was angry.

Why are you angry? My father is not angry yet.

Xiao Jiu asked cautiously, "Aren't we together?"

Why did it seem like it was his fault?

Yang Zhaoze smiled, "No, something will happen later."

It seems that there is no anger just now.

Xiao Jiu nodded to show that he understood the bow, then hurriedly turned and left, and went to the study to start learning characters.

Strange, really strange.

It wasn't the first oddity, nor would it be the last.

Every time I stay with Yang Junze, there is always an indescribable feeling in the atmosphere.

At this moment Xiao Jiu was still sitting on Yang Junze's study, muttering in his mouth, but his thoughts had gone away.

The study room is not too big, but several cabinets are full of books, which seem to contain aloes.The study room is connected to Yang Junze's bedroom, and there is a wooden frame next to the bed, on which are placed two swords, one of which is a snow-white long sword that Xiao Jiu often sees.

He remembered that once, Yang Junze wanted to teach him some martial arts, but his background was not good, his body after a long time was not suitable for martial arts, and he had no talent, so he dismissed this idea.

But Yang Junze still taught some self-defense movements, which neither required internal strength nor too much strength, but hoped that Xiao Jiu could delay time and wait for him to appear when encountering similar dangerous situations.

I'm afraid that Xiao Jiu will start to panic and dare not even move.

"Lazy?" Yang Junze saw Xiao Jiu in a daze as soon as he entered the door.

"Ah?" Being found lazy, Xiao Jiu smiled embarrassedly: "Oh, no."

Yang Junze walked to Xiao Jiu's side, saw that he had read a piece of paper, and said with a smile, "Do you still understand?"

"Well, it's okay." Speaking of studying, Xiao Jiu's spirit returned, "I found words that I couldn't understand before, and now I understand them!" He also showed a proud look.

Yang Junze stroked Xiao Jiu's head after hearing this, "Keep working hard."

Xiao Jiu nodded.

The strangest thing about Yang Junze recently is that he always makes physical contact inadvertently, sometimes pinches his arm, sometimes touches his waist, and most often touches his head.

It's not that Xiao Jiu hates these situations, and it shouldn't be said that he likes them, because they always make his heart twitch, and he is so nervous that he wonders if he has made a mistake, and he can't even remember the words.

Does the relationship between men need so much contact?

But the strange way of getting along with Yang Junze made Xiao Jiu feel quite comfortable. Seeing him take a wooden chair and sit beside her, ready to give a lecture, his eyes were smiling but so serious. Yi Yi's face appeared more perfect, and he felt as if he was staring blankly.

Xiao Jiu thought, Yang Junze usually has many Yingyingyanyans who like him when he doesn't smile, but if he smiles, no one in his eighties or twelve can resist his charm.Of course, it's not that Yang Junze didn't smile at other people. Xiao Jiu had seen it a few times, but the smiles he smiled a few times were not as good as his smile now.

Why do you have to smile so nicely at him?Xiao Jiu thought.

But it is undeniable that seeing him like Yang Junze made his heart swell and soft, as if soaked in warm water, making it difficult for him to escape and unable to refuse.

"Do you know why I joined the magic way?"

I don't know whether it was the atmosphere, or Yang Junze's eyes touched Xiao Jiu's heart, and I always felt that I had to say something to relieve the feeling of being overwhelmed.

Xiao Jiu paused, he didn't know why he brought up such a topic, and people didn't necessarily want to know his background, his face was already slightly red when he didn't answer.

Yang Junze did not speak.

But Xiao Jiu found it easy to speak: "The village I was born in was governed by the Hantian Sect." He looked up, as if recalling the past, "To be honest, I don't have a good impression of the Hantian Sect. They don't treat us at all. As a human being, there was a famine in the village at that time, and there was a drought again, the people in the village had no food at all, and the people in the Rescue Church gave relief, but they killed one by one, and no one dared to go after a long time."

I saw Yang Junze still staring at Xiao Jiu.

"My parents said that I have an older brother and older sister, but they all starved to death. I was the only one who lived to be ten years old. They changed my name to Xiao Jiu, hoping that I would live a long time and live to be 90 years old. This is their wish.” Xiao Jiu smiled, “They were beaten to death because I was sick, and they wanted to get medical treatment, but they were rejected. Later, I didn’t expect that I would get better, but found that they were all gone. Sick again, haha."

Xiao Jiu looked at Yang Junze again, and said: "Later, I heard that the factions in the sect were divided. After some rectification, the new leader took office and recruited people from outside. Food and clothing." He pursed his lips, "Do you think I'm very spineless?"

"No." Yang Junze's eyes were as steady as his voice.

Xiao Jiu usually looked away when he met Yang Junze, but now he didn't back down, his eyes lost the brightness they were looking for, "Nothing? Are you spineless?"

"You know what I mean." Yang Junze stretched out his hand to straighten the hair in front of Xiao Jiu's face, and then stroked the back of his neck, "I know you joined the Demon Cult because of your parents, right?" Suddenly, with a force on his hand, Call Xiao Jiuyi on his shoulders.

No need to look at his expression, Yang Junze could tell his tense mood from his stiff body.

"Why do you say that? I don't know martial arts, so I can't avenge myself."

Yang Junze: "Your parents miss you for a long time, you can only save yourself if you join the Devil's Cult."

"Actually, I can't say that. I actually don't know why I joined the Devil's Cult in the end. I just feel that if I stay in the village, I won't survive a few more years." Xiao Jiu shrank into Yang Junze's neck and said sullenly.

Yang Junze: "But it's also good, now you can reassure your parents, because you will not only live to 90 years old, but also live longer, okay?"

"Hey, why? Because of you?" Xiao Jiu moved her head, always feeling that her mind is as sore as her heart.

"En." Yang Junze replied.

Xiao Jiu giggled, "Zi Lian."

After a while, Xiao Jiu: "Do you care about me?"

Yang Junze replied again: "I care about you."

It doesn't matter how long.
