storyteller

The frowning girl in front of the door didn't care about Xu Bichuan's frown, she walked over to the person on the bed and called "Yeah", "Qiu Lingfu, you are too miserable."

Talking and tsk tsk.

Xu Bichuan accused: "You came in through the window again."

Hanyan waved her hand, blushing: "This Qiu Lingfu is dying and you still say that!"

The word "death" irritated Qiu Xiaoshi severely, and he turned pale with fright: "Girl Hanyan, don't talk nonsense!"

Hanyan smiled, took out a bottle from her bosom, threw it to Qiu Xiaoshi, and pointed her chin towards Qiu Lingfu: "Give him a drink."

Qiu Xiaoshi hurriedly took it, although he believed in Hanyan, he couldn't help asking: "What is this?"

Hanyan put her hips on her hips and grinned, "□□."

Qiu Xiaoshi shook his hand and almost threw the bottle in his hand.

Seeing Hanyan's look of not thinking it was a big deal, Xu Bichuan had no choice but to say, "It's Pingxinlu, it's for relieving pain, let Qiu Lingfu take it."

Qiu Xiaoshi whispered: "Miss Hanyan, you really like to joke." Then he uncorked the bottle and fed it to Qiu Lingfu.

After Qiu Lingfu drank the Pingxin Dew, the frown between his brows gradually eased a little.

Hanyan saw it in her eyes, and said, "This kid is really stupid, it's just a whip, and it's not poisonous, yet it hurts like this."

"This whip is also for nothing. If he hadn't made up his mind, how could he have become what he is now?" Xu Bichuan said.

"What's the matter? Why don't you tell me?" Hanyan sat at the table with great interest, with a look of listening attentively, "I didn't rush to save this kid, I just wanted to listen to the story."

Qiu Xiaoshi gave her a hard look, but Xu Bichuan said, "I think Xiaoshi knows this better than I do, why don't Xiaoshi talk about it."

Qiu Xiaoshi knew that the matter had been revealed, but he still said nervously: "...what is it?"

Xu Bichuan raised his voice: "Of course it's the old man's business."

This doesn't seem like a difficult story to tell.

It turned out that it was true that Qiu Xinsu had disappeared, and it was true that he had lost contact, but it was not an inexplicable disappearance.Although she left suddenly, she did not lose contact with her family.

As long as it is not a sudden disaster, there is no need for people to leave home suddenly and silently.

Even if you want to do something dangerous that is difficult to tell, you will leave a letter to reassure your heart.

What Qiu Xinsu had to do was this unspeakably dangerous thing.

When Qiu Xinsu started to leave, there would be one or two letters every month. Although there were only a few words on the white paper, just like Qiu Xinsu's clear personality, it could allow the two of them to continue to live as usual.

Half a year ago, the letter was cut off.And the man had been away from home for too long.

Even if he was uneasy, Qiu Xiaoshi just comforted himself.

He put the letter away, and with such luck, he lied to Qiu Lingfu, who was always happy and indifferent, and made a bitter smile: "Here comes the letter again, and it's still the same few words. Miss, I really don't know how to write more." .”

Qiu Xiaoshi still treats Qiu Lingfu as a child, but how could he know that he is so smart, what Qiu Xiaoshi wants to hide has never escaped his eyes.

"Xiaoshi, you are still too bad at lying." Qiu Lingfu clicked his lips.

In terms of the relationship between Qiu Xinsu and Qiu Lingfu, it can be said that they are not close.

Qiu Xinsu has always been cold-tempered, and her teaching to Qiu Lingfu is only a few words, and there seems to be no warm interaction between mother and child.

Their relationship is more like a pair of mentors and apprentices. Although they are considerate, they are only on the surface and have not gone deep.

But Qiu Xinsu is concerned about the subtleties, but she also cares about Qiu Lingfu.

When Qiu Lingfu was ill, she also stopped in front of Qiu Lingfu's house like thousands of mothers, or searched Huai'an pharmacies, and squatted in the thick smoke in the kitchen to decoct medicine - she only learned these things in the past few years. Like all martial idiots and chivalrous men, their temperament and life are so indifferent that they seem to be out of the world.

Qiu Xiaoshi could see these things, but he didn't know if the urchin-like Qiu Lingfu could detect it.

But he knew that the child was not cold-blooded and heartless.

After speculating that Qiu Xinsu might be in trouble, Qiu Lingfu's calmness and strangeness made Qiu Xiaoshi nervous and relieved.

At least, he will care about the life and death of the only relative in the world.

If he didn't care, maybe the disappearance of Qiu Xinsu means disappearance, and there will be no such person in the world from now on.Because Qiu Xiaoshi regards himself as nothing more than a commoner, and the rivers and lakes are just another world to him, what waves can he make?

But fortunately, this Qiu Xinsu retired from the Jianghu, but did not completely cut off the relationship between her descendants and the Jianghu.

She built two bridges between Qiu Lingfu and Jiang Hu, one was his extraordinary kung fu of Su Xin swordsmanship, and the other was a strong and trustworthy backer Hua Yuye.

But Qiu Lingfu opened another way for himself.

He used the storytelling for after-dinner entertainment to connect the rivers and lakes with himself.

This became a sharp blade for him to break into the rivers and lakes to defend himself in the future!

After a few days of silence, a strange and bold game of chess formed in Qiu Lingfu's mind.

This chess game is like those farces he arranged in the past, innocent, exaggerated, and ignorant of the heights of the world——

——He actually wanted to elicit the reason why Qiu Xinsu left them, and the culprit who caused Qiu Xinsu to lose contact, and wanted to kill and get rid of them together!

It's like he must take revenge on those who bully him.

Implementing all this requires a hand with the ability to stir up rivers and lakes.

It takes a sharp blade to pierce into the heart of this chaotic and numb giant in the Jianghu, so that the whole Jianghu can at least stir up ripples and notice him as a small stone.

Old man with rice and wine—his other identity, his toys and weapons.

The beginning of this rice and wine old man was just a game he played to tease the world two years ago.

Qiu Lingfu was playing around in Huai'an, and he had also heard that Huaijing, which is not far away, was full of traffic and the world.

At the age of fourteen at that time, he was naturally a playful young man. He said to Qiu Xiaoshi: "Let's go to Huaijing and see what's going on."

The first time I went to Huaijing, I got to know someone——Jiang Huaiye, the piano master of Jianghailou, because of his noisy temperament that was not afraid of anything that day.

Later, on a whim, the young man with great playfulness made a small plan, and with the help of Jiang Huaiye, he became such an old man with food and wine for him to play around the world.

When the name of "Fanjiu Laoer" was known by him all over the world, how could he have imagined that one day, he would use the name of "Fanjiu Laoer" to cast such a net.

Using the word "Qiu Xinsu" as a bait, waiting for someone with a heart to enter the net.

How to lay the net, Qiu Xiaoshi's elm head couldn't figure it out, the most important thing was that Qiu Lingfu didn't bother to talk about it.

Based on his own understanding and malice towards this arena, he tailored a prank for this arena.

The only thing the two could rely on was Qiu Lingfu's martial arts and full of self-confidence. Qiu Xiaoshi had no idea, and made a ridiculous and bold decision at that time - to play with him.

Later he learned that although Qiu Lingfu was carefree since childhood, he also had eyes, ears and heart.

He listened to those storytellers talking about Jianghu, and also heard Qiu Xinsu's intentional or unintentional sighs.

Qiu Xinsu made sure to leave home every year, not to visit mountains and rivers, to visit relatives and friends, but to scout for news and ensure that her whereabouts were kept secret.

She never mentions the past, but pays special attention to the secrets of the world.

She even secretly set up many "Suxin faction" obstacles in the world, as if to make it difficult for those who are looking for her to do so.

He had a sharp mind, and as he grew older, an idea was vaguely formed in his mind.

In the rumors of his and Qiu Xinsu's many actions in the rivers and lakes, he added a lot of evidence to his own thoughts and speculations.

He guessed——Qiu Xinsu's retreat was just to hide better, to conceal an unspeakable secret that was easy to get angry.

This secret was almost exposed when she made up her mind to retire and when the Bai family was wiped out.

But after all, it was concealed—with the tragic death of the Bai family and the disappearance of Qiu Xinsu.

He knew that some people were still not reconciled, peeping at this secret like tigers and wolves in the dark, so that Qiu Xinsu still had to spend a lot of effort to hide himself.

He also knew that this secret would be the only reason to lure Qiu Xinsu into that bloody arena again.

Like a hidden crisis, it wants to tear his carefree life apart, mess up everything he loves, and destroy everything pure in his heart!

However, Qiu Lingfu buried such a secret in his heart and never asked Qiu Xinsu.

He is still obsessed with his life at that time, with little worries, innocent and happy - just like Qiu Xinsu's expectation.

Just like your own natural perception of happiness.

He didn't want to think about things that hadn't happened yet.

Until it does come, have to think.

This naughty, innocent and carefree little vicious dog on the street became reckless and reckless. With his intelligence and audacity, he transformed into an ignorant and intuitive little wolf, and began to fight against fate indomitably.

Qiu Xiaoshi didn't believe in himself, and didn't believe that keeping this secret would bring Qiu Lingfu any benefit.

He told Xu Bichuan and Hanyan everything he knew in detail.

"Then Qiu Lingfu imagined this game, do you understand?" Hanyan asked Xu Bichuan.

Xu Bichuan smiled helplessly: "I don't quite understand."

He could see that Xiao Shi didn't understand either.

"It seems that the only way is to wait for him to wake up from a catastrophe and let him do it for real." Xu Bichuan said, but looked at Han Yan again, "What's wrong with you?"

Han Yan looked strange: "I finally know what you meant that time."

"Oh?"

"You said Qiu Lingfu, if he grew up in Jiang Hu, I'm afraid he wouldn't know how he messed up the Jiang Hu." Han Yan thought for a while.

"Yes, there are many people in this rivers and lakes who can arrange the game of chess in a precise way. Some people are born with acumen and wisdom, and some have acquired experience. Some people set up a game for the world, and some conspire for their own selfish desires."

Hanyan pointed her chin towards Qiu Lingfu: "What about him?" This guy can also arrange chess games with precision?Hanyan is incredible.

"He was born smart, but only for selfish desires." Xu Bichuan said.

In the middle of the night, Hanyan left, Xu Bichuan went back to his room, Chengcai also went to rest, and the two children were still sick.

Only Qiu Xiaoshi was still drowsy beside the bed, humming Qiu Lingfu from time to time.

A few nights ago, I played until midnight every day. At this moment, I was in a daze in the middle of the night. Suddenly, Qiu Xiaoshi was suffocated by peeing. He glanced at Qiu Lingfu who was lying on the bed with most of his back exposed, and thoughtfully pulled the quilt for him , but didn't dare to press the wound, so hastily tucked it.

I went to check the windows and closed them tightly, and then opened the door and went to the latrine to relieve myself.

The window was gently blown open by the wind, and someone walked to Qiu Lingfu's bedside.
