seek benevolence

8.

In early October, the first snow fell on Baishou Mountain.

The ground is full of broken Qiong and chaotic jade, occasionally frightened birds and feathers, green pines reflecting snow.This day happened to be Ye Qing's turn to go down the mountain, he was dressed a little thinly, and was covered in snow on the plank road going down the mountain.Back on the mountain at this time, he quickly ran back to the house and put on a cloak.

Passing by Yu Su's residence, he stopped, turned a corner and ran in.

That Yu Su was lazily lying on the bed, covered tightly by the quilt, he nestled inside without saying a word.Hearing the sound of Ye Qing running in, he just lifted the corner of the quilt to take a look, then turned over and wrapped himself tightly again.

Ye Qing sighed inaudibly.

"Okay, don't be angry—" He pushed Yusu, but the man ignored him, and then arched inward, "You can't blame me entirely, who told you to sneak out at night... ..."

Yu Su interrupted him angrily: "Don't talk. I don't want to talk to you."

He gets angry just thinking about it.It has been six or seven days since Xiao Huan passed out with a knife on that day.When Yu Su woke up, he packed his bags, and said goodbye to Xiao Huan, saying that he had disturbed him a lot during the healing period, and now that he was well, he was going down the mountain.Unexpectedly, the fellow frowned and looked at him for a while, then suddenly stretched out his hand to hold one of his wrists, put his two fingers on his pulse, felt for a few times, then retracted calmly, and said: "No hurry, I'm still waiting." It will take a few more days to recuperate.”

Yu Su is not willing to give up, and will go down the mountain in a different way in the next few days.The disciples on shift were coaxed by him all over, but none of them were persuaded. I don't know what Xiao Huan explained to them.Yu Su had no choice but to wait until it was completely dark, and while the disciples on duty at the gate of the palace were changing shifts, he tiptoed over the side wall, trying to slowly move down from the side of the cliff.As a result, the sky failed as people wished, and just as he jumped down from the wall without a sound, a young man yelled sharply not far away: "Which sneaky person is there!"

Yu Su was caught by Ye Qing, almost crying without tears.This time Xiao Huan seemed to be really angry, his face was cold and hard, and he stopped talking to him.Yu Su was a little apprehensive about his attitude, and felt very unwilling to do so, so he simply ignored him and just sat in the room feeling angry.

He didn't look for Xiao Huan, and Xiao Huan seemed to be busy these days, except for rejecting his farewell that day, he never took the initiative to look for him.

This man is very sick, obviously he was the one who teased him first, but now he looks like a normal person, it seems that he is self-indulgent.

...Although he was thinking like this, he couldn't help but think about the temperature he felt when he was held in Xiao Huan's arms that day, and that dim dream.It was scorching hot and made him shiver with cold.

After restlessly moving under the blanket for a while, he sat up again, turned his head and glanced at Ye Qing, hesitated for a moment, then pretended to ask nonchalantly: "Are you guys busy lately?"

Ye Qing was holding a piece of tea cake on the plate and eating it wholeheartedly. Hearing what he said, before he could swallow it, he nodded quickly: "You don't know yet? A patrolman saw the person from Qixingyan on the mountain, but he didn't show his face , the purpose is still unknown, only a little bit of the fox's tail is showing. If it weren't for this, no one would stop you even if you ran all over the mountain."

Yu Su was taken aback, feeling quite uncomfortable for a moment.

Speaking of Qixingyan, there is still a lot of background.Qixingyan is not its original name, because it was originally a sect in the south of the Lingnan area, occupying a site of "five lakes, six hills, seven rocks and eight caves". There are islands in the lake, caves in the islands, and rivers in the caves. , Surrounded by layers, it is so majestic and strange that it got its name just now.And I heard that there is no unique technique in this school, most of the disciples are people with eccentric temperaments, they get together for various reasons, darts, arrows, poison, and methods are different.On weekdays, his whereabouts are uncertain, regardless of good or evil.Their behavior and style are completely different from those of the Central Plains martial arts, in short, they are full of weirdness everywhere.

Even though he had heard the rumors that White Deer Palace and Qixingyan had always been at odds, it still made him a little dazed when it was put on the table.

He hesitated for a moment, and said: "Then your master... can you handle it?"

Ye Qing waved his hand casually: "It would be more troublesome for them not to be discovered, but now we have found some whereabouts due to their poor hands and feet. According to what my master said, just keep quiet. The rest is up to you He arranged it. My master has never lost to anyone so far, and I don’t care about their little tricks. The drunken ball pen originally belonged to our palace, so I forgive them for not daring to take it blatantly. Just relax."

Having said that, it cannot be fully believed.Since the drunken ball pen belonged to the White Deer Palace, Qixingyan should know that they would not be able to get it even if they tried their mouths.If it's just because of this magical brush and Xiao Huan had a quarrel, it would be too worthless.Now that this group of people are staying on the mountain, could it be that they have other plans?

Suspicions abounded in Yu Su's heart, but he couldn't tell Ye Qing all the thoughts in his heart - this young man was heartless, he only regarded him as the most respected master in the world, who would dare to offend him easily.

Ye Qing ate and drank at his place all afternoon, the sky was getting dark when he left.He was in a very good mood, leisurely and leisurely, but when he was about to step out of the courtyard, he bumped into someone head-on, he couldn't stabilize his feet, and staggered a step.

The person he bumped into was Xiao Huan.Ye Qing quickly stood up straight, and respectfully called Master.Xiao Huan frowned after glancing at him, and scolded: "It's not proper to be so lazy."

Ye Qing's hairs stood on end, he was busy trying to make a fool of himself.Fortunately, Xiao Huan didn't intend to entangle him too much, so he reprimanded him a few words and walked inside.

Yu Su was reclining on the couch reading a book, and when he saw Xiao Huan coming in, he unconsciously wrapped the quilt around his body tighter again.Unexpectedly, before he opened his mouth to ask the other party's purpose, Xiao Huan sat down beside his couch, raised his head and looked at him, and said involuntarily: "You will go down the mountain tomorrow."

Yu Su's eyebrows twitched, and an unknown fire suddenly burst into his heart.
