The scumbag brother is finally accepted

Once again empty-handed, Shen Mengzhuang, who has always been calm and calm, can't help but feel a little anxious now.When they wanted to find their next target, they suddenly received a message from Xuanqiu. They thought that the master had something to say, but it turned out that they were telling them to go back to the mountain.The Chinese New Year is almost here, and the big things will be discussed after the Chinese New Year.

As soon as he returned to the mountain, Shen Mengzhuang went to Taixu Pavilion without stopping.

Green smoke curled up inside the Taixu Pavilion, Xuanqiu stood in front of the book pavilion with his back to the gate, still with a stern face of bitter hatred, he hadn't seen him for several months, and his goatee had grown a lot.

"Master." Shen Mengzhuang bowed.

"Mengzhuang is here." Xuanqiu turned his head and glanced at Shen Mengzhuang behind him, "Come here."

Hearing the sound, Shen Mengzhuang walked up to Xuanqiu's side, the bookstore in front of him suddenly moved, and a glazed platform slowly rose up, which contained the Taichu Sword and Xuanhuang Ling that he had seen that day.

"Master..." Shen Mengzhuang looked at Xuanqiu, puzzled.

Xuanqiu stroked his beard, and after a long silence, he opened his mouth and said, "I haven't finished talking about being a teacher that day. The Sword of Absolute Beginning and the Xuanhuang Ling are not only tokens of the sect, but also related to the primitiveness of the four realms."

Hearing about the Four Realms for the first time, Shen Mengzhuang was confused and full of doubts, and looked at Xuanqiu with a serious expression as he waited for him to finish.

"In the place of chaos, the sky and the earth are divided. There are not only dark places in the world, but also places of red origin, the forbidden gods, and the demon world. In ancient times, the four realms were divided and ruled, and the days of non-aggression passed for thousands of years. Until 500 years ago, the demon world was black and separated. Together with other masters of the two realms, they invaded the dark realm. At that time, the sects of the dark realm sacrificed their lives to seal the other three realms in a different dimension, and isolated them from the dark realm. However, the Demon Lord was so powerful that he broke through the barrier a hundred years ago and came again. The other three elders worked together to seal him. 100 years have passed, and he must have already planned how to make a comeback."

"What is Master planning to do?"

Xuanqiu, who stood with his hands behind his back, was silent for a long time, staring at the token in front of him, with a hoarse voice, he said slowly: "Meng Zhuang, you were cultivated by me, and I have high hopes for you as a teacher. Well, as a teacher, I want to find the law of the past and seal it again, and in the future, the Cangxuan Sect and the Dark Realm will be entrusted to you as a teacher to rest assured."

"Master, do you want to risk your life?" Shen Mengzhuang asked him tentatively, "Master, no!"

"As a teacher, I have made up my mind. When the new year is over, my teacher will announce you as the new head."

These words were as important as Mount Tai, and Shen Mengzhuang instantly felt pressure doubled.If it was back then, he would be full of joy and finally got his wish at this moment, but now, he already has the most important person in his heart.The common people and the one they love are destined to be unable to have both.

"Master." Shen Mengzhuang thought for a long time, opened his clothes and knelt on the ground, and said seriously: "Master, please take it back."

Seeing Shen Mengzhuang being so solemn, Xuanqiu thought he was worried about his own safety, and wanted to help him up, and said kindly: "You don't have to worry about me."

Shen Mengzhuang still bowed his head and knelt, clasping his hands in a bow, with a firm attitude, "Master, please take it back."

Aware of Shen Mengzhuang's abnormality, Xuanqiu stood with his hands behind his back, staring at the big disciple he had personally cultivated in front of him, with mixed emotions in his heart that could not be expressed.After a long time, he asked slowly, "Are you shaken?"

The person in front of him bowed his head and remained silent.

The silent response made Xuanqiu, who was always amiable to Shen Mengzhuang, suddenly unhappy, his face darkened suddenly, his brows were furrowed, and he said in a deep voice, "Do you still remember what you said when you went up the mountain?"

The ignorant and immature little Meng Zhuang was rescued by Xuanqiu when he lost his loved one all of a sudden, and has been brought up by his side ever since.In the martial arts competition that year, Xiao Mengzhuang passed five levels and killed six generals, defeated all the heroes in the world, and won the first place in one fell swoop.The young man has emerged, and the crowd admires him.Xuanqiu asked him where he wanted to acquire his skills, and Xiao Mengzhuang replied decisively without hesitation:

"For the well-being of all people in the world, after death."

As time goes by, the aspirations of the young people of the past are still in my ears.Shen Mengzhuang was speechless for a moment, his mind was full of thoughts and he didn't know where to start.

There was silence in the room, Xuanqiu took one last look at him, turned his back to him and said, "Don't forget your original intention, you have never heard of what you said today as a teacher, go back."

Shen Mengzhuang, who was kneeling on the ground, bowed deeply, got up and left.

The pines and cypresses outside the Taixu Pavilion are evergreen, only the ginkgo tree is desolate and withered, with dead leaves rustling away in the wind.Shen Mengzhuang walked forward slowly with heavy steps, a dead leaf slipped from the tip of his nose.Reaching out to catch the dead leaves, I looked up at the thick tree trunk in front of me, and suddenly thought that someone likes to climb into the tree when they have nothing to do, why there is no one today.

In a blink of an eye, I remembered that I heard that I was seriously injured and bedridden.Shen Mengzhuang immediately felt relieved, and his face turned from cloudy to clear.Such a great opportunity, hurry to see it.

Turning around to go to another place, Shen Mengzhuang suddenly pushed open the door, and sighed before entering the door: "Oh! Oh, oh!"

Zhou Bufan, who was drowsy on the bed, trembled when he heard the sound of "Kang Dang".His right leg was badly injured, and now he can only be hanged for recuperation. The left piece of gauze and the right piece of gauze on his face are wrapped into a pig's head. Zhou Bufan hates it terribly.

Shen Mengzhuang, who opened the door and entered, caught a glimpse of Zhou Bufan on the bed at a glance, pretended not to see Zhou Bufan, looked around in a daze, and shouted: "Junior Brother! Second Junior Brother! Where is my Junior Brother? My handsome, elegant, suave, Where is the second junior brother whom everyone loves?"

While yelling, he rummaged through the house, lifted the tablecloth for a while, and shouted under the table: "Is Junior Brother there?" After a while, he picked up the tea lid, looked at the teapot and asked, "Where is Junior Brother hiding?"

Zhou Bufan at the side finally couldn't stand it any longer, grabbed the pillow next to him and slammed it at Shen Mengzhuang, shouting: "Big Brother!!!"

Turning around upon hearing the sound, Shen Mengzhuang firmly caught the throwing pillow, walked to the edge of the bed and sat down with a smile, slapped his right leg suddenly, and said, "Bao is so exaggerated."

Zhou Bufan, who was half leaning on the bed, gasped in pain, his facial features were all wrinkled, and he uttered four words through gritted teeth, "This, yes, true, hurt!"

After taking a breath, Zhou Bufan asked, "Have you met Master?"

Shen Mengzhuang nodded in response.

"Master didn't say anything?"

"It's nothing."

Hearing these words, Zhou Bufan was relieved, and leaned back on the quilt, "I knew that Master would not do anything to you, so don't blame yourself too much. The Cangxuan Sect has never experienced any big storms. The small sects who are not well-known dare to bully us. But this is not the important thing, the old man must be worried about the devil. I guess he must have some bad idea of ​​"fighting with his life" , don’t agree! This old man, the older he gets, the more he gets into the horns.”

Shen Mengzhuang, who bowed his head and said nothing, glanced at him when he heard the sound, Zhou Bufan didn't feel anything wrong, and continued: "But I think his posture, it should be announced that you will be the successor after the new year, congratulations, senior brother, Remember to cover me."

When it came to the head of the sect, Shen Mengzhuang, who had a gentle face just now, suddenly looked serious, stared at the ground with his head down and remained silent.Seeing his appearance, Zhou Bufan guessed something in his heart, pulled him over and asked in surprise: "No way, brother, you refused?"

Shen Mengzhuang was still silent.

"No, what are you doing? Do you know what you're doing?"

After a long silence, Shen Mengzhuang replied calmly: "The Cangxuan faction has produced a large number of talents."

"Talents come out of nowhere! Do you know that Master has high hopes for you? Do you know how much he has spent on you? Do you know how good he is to you? Do you know how many people envy you for everything you have obtained? Now you Just say 'talented people come forth in large numbers' and send it away? You, you, you! Are you obsessed with ghosts? Are you?"

Shen Mengzhuang didn't refute a single word of accusation, just sat quietly by the bed and let Zhou Bufan scold him.

"What the hell are you thinking? Is it related to that kid? In the past, I said that paper can't contain fire, and asked you what your plan was, but it turned out that you had such a plan. Are you out of your mind?"

Shen Mengzhuang, who was sitting by the bed and was being questioned, raised his head and gave him a blank look, but remained silent.

The more he talked, the more angry Zhou Bufan seemed to hate iron and steel, he gave up on the bed, and was as angry as a dead fish, "Crazy, crazy, another crazy one."

As soon as the words fell, Zhou Bufan struggled to get up again, leaned closer and asked, "Then what are your plans for the future?"

This question has been circling in Shen Mengzhuang's mind. From the moment he was really tempted to accept this relationship, he has been asking himself all the time, what will happen next?

That day when the sun and the moon were drinking together, Zhou Bufan asked him what his plan was, and he never shied away from it, even if he could just find a reason to prevaricate, but he didn't want to.The lover just made a firm promise that he would not be wronged, and it is still the same now.

After thinking for a long time, Shen Mengzhuang looked outside the door with deep eyes, as if looking at the unreachable future, and sighed: "The boat will pass away from now on, and Jiang Hai will send the rest of his life."【1】

"What?!" Zhou Bufan was so startled that his jaw almost fell on the bed, "Are you planning to retire?"

Hearing the sound, he turned his head to look at the startled Zhou Bufan, Shen Mengzhuang said with a light smile, "Why not? Have you never thought about living in seclusion with Zhenzhen in the mountains?"

As soon as Ye Zhenzhen was mentioned, Zhou Bufan immediately collapsed on the bed like a discouraged ball, his face full of dissatisfaction, "Stop mentioning it, when will I not think about it? It's useless if I think about it, I have to be willing to do it. "

"You and Zhenzhen are still the same?"

Zhou Bufan sounded particularly harsh when he was originally concerned. He couldn't help suspecting that Shen Mengzhuang did it on purpose.Then he rolled his eyes at him, curled his lips and said: "It's not that Lu Qingyuan, you take care of your junior brother, and don't provoke me, Zhenzhen!"

Different from Zhou Bufan's heartbroken and gritted teeth, when Lu Qingyuan was mentioned, Shen Mengzhuang's face suddenly softened, the corner of his mouth couldn't hide the smile, and his tone was a little smug, and he raised his voice: "My little Jiu doesn't have one, you No, no, no, you can't throw the pot around."

"Who can't! A man can't say no!" Zhou Bufan became anxious instantly, his head was thick, his beard was blowing, his beard was staring, "Cut, cut, cut, cut! Who in An Xufeng doesn't know that you are biased towards him, and you almost use the word 'eccentric' It's written on your face. No, are you here to see me or to be angry with me? Well done, you read it and you're angry, so you can go?"

At this moment, Zhou Bufan, whose seven orifices were smoking, slammed Shen Mengzhuang with a pillow. If it wasn't for his bad right leg, he would have kicked him hard, "I won't see you off if you walk slowly, watch out for the threshold!"

Shen Mengzhuang, who was kicked out of the bed, walked while laughing, turned around to look at him and said with a smile, "Look at your narrow-mindedness."

"Ancestor, hurry up, I want to live a few more years, please!"

Finally, Shen Mengzhuang was driven away. To prevent him from coming again, Zhou Bufan put up a wooden sign at the door with the impressive words on it—"Shen Mengzhuang and dogs are not allowed to enter."

The person involved, Shen Mengzhuang, was not annoyed either, since he was not allowed to go through the gate, he turned over the window.Later Zhou Bufan nailed down the windows too.The road was blocked, so Shen Mengzhuang overturned the roof tiles and got into the house.Rain or shine, until Zhou Bufan recovered from his injury.

Recently, Xuanqiu has been restless, originally intending to pass the headship to Shen Mengzhuang so that he can do follow-up matters with peace of mind.However, Shen Mengzhuang's attitude was also resolute that day, I don't know if he has calmed down in the past few days.Forget it, the Cangxuan Sect still has a few elders who can help out when he is not around.

"Hey, why are you thinking so preoccupied, brother?"

Shi Bai who pushed the door out saw Xuanqiu standing in front of the window with his hands behind his back, his back was extremely heavy and cold.Xuanqiu turned around when he heard the sound, and said as he walked, "You're here."

The two stood in front of the table, and Xuanqiu told Shi Bai about the recent changes in the dark environment and future troubles.If the demon revives, then the dark realm will be devastated, so he plans to recreate the Donghuang Yanghuo and seal the demon again.

"Senior brother, this is not a trivial matter, not to mention the child's blood needed to refine the fire..." Shi Bai stood beside Xuanqiu, twirling the jade wrench in his hand, looking at the yellowed forbidden books on the table, his eyes were full of dark currents.

"Because of this, I plan to destroy my body after the matter is successful, and imprison my soul in the Heavenly Thunder Pool to redeem my sin forever."

"Brother, you must not do it!"

"I've made up my mind on this matter. Cangxuan Sect will have Junior Brother Lao in the future. I hope Junior Brother can give you more advice on that kid from Mengzhuang. He's still young."

Seeing Xuanqiu's determination, Shi Bai didn't stop him anymore, it would look fake if it was too much.Before leaving, he still didn't forget the deep brotherhood, and said regretfully: "Senior brother, what regrets do you have? Do you want me, brother..."

Xuanqiu, who stood with his hands behind his back, stared at the flickering candlelight in front of him, a beautiful image flashed in his mind, time passed like a fleeting moment, and things changed in the blink of an eye.His eyes suddenly darkened, and he murmured softly, "Sorry..."

"Forget it, you start to do it."

Shi Bai bowed his head and saluted, then turned and left, the uncontrollable joy flashed across his eyes.

The cold wind is bleak in winter, and the vegetation on the mountain is withered.Lu Qingyuan took a broom to sweep the fallen leaves in the courtyard. Since he came back, he and his senior brother could only see each other at night, so it's better not to go back to the mountain.It will be New Year's Eve in a few days, and the senior brother will be more and more busy. Sometimes he will wait in his room until late at night before seeing people come back, and he is afraid that he will not sleep well, so he will come back after saying a few words in a hurry.

What's so good about New Year's Eve, so many people surround senior brother, he doesn't like it!Lu Qingyuan puffed up his cheeks and sulked, and stomped the broom on the ground in his hand, and the dead leaves that he swept over just now were immediately bounced off.

Slandering secretly, Lu Qingyuan swept it over and over again, humming hundreds of times in his heart.Suddenly a figure came out from behind, knocked on his head, and said with a smile, "What is that little fool thinking?"

With a sound of "Ouch", Lu Qingyuan rubbed his head and turned to see Shen Mengzhuang. He was instantly overjoyed, and asked pitifully, "Why are you here, brother?"

Taking the broom in Lu Qingyuan's hand and throwing it aside, Shen Mengzhuang stood in front of him, with gentle eyes and firm thoughts, stretched out his hand towards him, and said solemnly, "I'll take you to see Master."

Understanding the meaning of Shen Mengzhuang's words, Lu Qingyuan was both surprised and delighted, but also a little apprehensive in his heart, held Shen Mengzhuang's hand, and gave a timid "hmm".

From the courtyard to Taixu Pavilion, Lu Qingyuan was anxious and uneasy all the way. When he thought of Master's face that could eat people, he was so afraid that he could have nightmares.As if his heart was going to jump out of his throat, Lu Qingyuan held Shen Mengzhuang's hand tightly, not daring to let go.

After knocking on the door, and the people inside agreed, Shen Mengzhuang led Lu Qingyuan in.

The light in Taixu Pavilion was dim, Xuanqiu sat at the table, without raising his head, he knew who was coming, looked down at the paper on the table, and said in a deep voice: "It's Meng Zhuang."

After entering the pavilion, Shen Mengzhuang knelt down on the ground, and Lu Qingyuan hurriedly knelt beside him when he saw this.Xuanqiu who heard the movement looked up and saw the two of them kneeling, guessing in his heart, he asked tentatively: "You..."

Shen Mengzhuang, who had made up his mind, straightened his back, clasped fingers tightly with Lu Qingyuan, and said in a firm tone: "Master, this disciple and Xiaojiu have already connected with each other, and I hope Master will make it happen."

"You!" Xuanqiu was furious, and he slapped the table with his big palm, the inkstone on the table shook off the table and fell to the ground and broke into pieces, "Do you know what you are talking about?"

"This heart is like a rock, disciple... I hope Master will be perfect!"

"Sinister!" Xuanqiu grabbed the brush container at the side and threw it at Shen Mengzhuang, the brush fell to the ground with a splash.

Seemingly unable to dissipate his anger, Xuanqiu walked up to Shen Mengzhuang, his face was livid, and the veins on his forehead bulged, pointing at him and scolding him: "I have worked so hard to cultivate you as a teacher, I hope you will take over the important task of protecting the common people, but you just refuse. As a teacher I thought you had some difficulties, I hope you calm down for a few days, and warn you not to forget your original intention. The result, the result was for him? It was for a man, so you have to betray my sect and even the common people. To be a teacher is to Taught you this way? Did you teach you this way!"

The more he spoke, the angrier he got, Xuanqiu grabbed the ruler on the table and beat Shen Mengzhuang hard.Seeing this, Lu Qingyuan hugged Shen Mengzhuang, stood in front of him and took the hit for him.

Zhenchi hit Lu Qingyuan's face, the pain made him scream loudly, forced out a few tears, looked at Xuanqiu who was condescending, and said in a timid voice: "Don't hit my brother."

"Xiao Jiu!" Shen Mengzhuang hugged him in his arms, seeing his right cheek was suddenly red, swollen and bruised, and immediately felt thousands of fine needles pricking his heart, it was almost killing him.

It doesn't matter how the master punishes him, but it won't work if Xiao Jiu is moved.He has secretly vowed that he will never be wronged again.

The anger in his heart gradually rose, and Shen Mengzhuang's tone was not as if he was just begging for perfection. He actually contradicted him and asked: "Is there no one who loves deeply in Master's heart? One just wants to protect him with his life, cherish him, love him, and never let him go. Is he a person who has been half wronged? Doesn’t Master have any regrets? Doesn’t Master not notice the love that is separated by mountains and seas? Time is so close, is it useful for Master to regret day after day? If love is buried in the bottom of my heart If it is useful, why is Master doing this? Today’s situation, Master, have you never regretted it?"

Sentences punishing the heart, every word weeping blood, like the sharpest blade piercing Xuanqiu's heart.He never had a youthful and impulsive period, but the past cannot be traced back.

Xuanqiu, who had been silent for a long time, bowed his head and focused on Shen Mengzhuang, and the two looked at each other for a long time, only to see him sigh deeply, and said in a hoarse voice: "Forget it, this matter will not be pursued by the teacher, and you must not bring it up again in the future, go to the secluded room to receive the punishment." .”

Shen Mengzhuang, who has always been good-natured, was extremely resolute in this matter today, and he did not give in at all. He lowered his head and asked, "The disciple is not wrong, why should he be punished?"

"You!" Xuanqiu stood with his hands behind his back, and the anger that had subsided in his eyes suddenly rekindled.

Shen Mengzhuang was not afraid, and said in a deep voice: "Because Xiaojiu and I are both men? Because it violates the laws of nature? Because the world doesn't like it?"

His words were full of disdain and contempt for the so-called natural principles in the world. Shen Mengzhuang raised his head and looked at Xuanqiu with firm eyes, "Master, my disciple has been with you since childhood and has always regarded you as a reborn father. Father, from now on, there is someone by my side so don't worry about it, this person..."

With tenderness in his eyes, Shen Mengzhuang looked at Lu Qingyuan beside him, held his hand tightly, and said firmly: "It's the love of my life, I'm lucky to have it."

Xuanqiu, who was speechless to respond, looked at the unwavering Shen Mengzhuang in front of him, and suddenly his emotions were mixed.Suddenly, back to that day, it was also a man leading the love of his life, kneeling in front of his master, begging for fulfillment.

And then, how did he do it?At that time, Xuanqiu just stood aside and looked at the absurd couple with cold eyes, blaming them in his heart for confusing the sect, which really humiliated the sect.

And then, what happened to them?Xuanqiu remembered that one had lost half of his body and was bedridden for three years.A half-dead man with his legs cut off is like a useless person.

In the decades that followed, he never felt that what he had done was wrong, that it was against the law for men to fall in love, and he always believed so.To this day, he never thought that the second encounter would happen to him.

The scene in his eyes gradually merged with the past, Xuanqiu felt a heavy heart.After a long silence, he finally opened his mouth slowly, seeming to respond to the moment, but also to the beginning, "Go, I don't know what happened today, go back."

Xuanqiu, the head of Cangxuan who was always stern and stern, had a bit of condescension in his words just now, his voice was hoarse like a weather-beaten old man.At that moment, Shen Mengzhuang suddenly realized that Master was getting old.

Surprised in his eyes when he heard the sound, Shen Mengzhuang bowed deeply to Xuanqiu, Lu Qingyuan followed suit, and then the two left Taixu Pavilion.

"Brother, did the master agree?" Lu Qingyuan tugged at Shen Mengzhuang's sleeve.

"No." Shen Mengzhuang put his arms around Lu Qingyuan and gently rubbed his swollen cheeks, "But he didn't refuse, does it hurt?"

It can be said that he has experienced a thrilling day, Shen Mengzhuang sighed, he would rather go down the mountain to kill the devil than face the furious master.However, he insisted on this matter, and he had to face all the storms. Fortunately, it finally passed.

It was night, and the two of them huddled under the blanket. Shen Mengzhuang put his hands on Lu Qingyuan's side, lowered his head and focused on the person below him, with gentle eyes.

Pushing aside the broken hair in front of Lu Qingyuan's forehead, Shen Mengzhuang kissed deeply, and it took a long time for the traces of ambiguity to dissipate.While rubbing his ears and temples, Shen Mengzhuang lightly bit Lu Qingyuan's earbone, sucked with his earlobe in his mouth, his voice was deep, like peach blossoms making wine in April, luring Lu Qingyuan into a trance, and said softly: "You are my upright Mrs. Shen."

The word "Mrs. Shen" lingered in Lu Qingyuan's heart, like honey melted in his heart, so sweet that he couldn't help squinting and smiling, he couldn't laugh enough.

Seeing him laughing heartily, Shen Mengzhuang also felt in a good mood, raised Lu Qingyuan's chin, and bewitched: "So it's getting late, madam should get down to business."
