The reborn beauty Ru Lan

The drizzle swept across the entire city of worry-free.

Xiao Xingyu was a little surprised. When he passed by the Central Plains half a month ago, there was still a drought there, but thinking about the days, Xiao Qian should have personally opened an altar to pray for rain not long ago. The arrival of this rain is exactly his last good timing.

Seek the rain, but also seek the hearts of the people.

Xiao Qian's throne has gradually been firmly established.

This rain will not last long, the dry area in Wuyou City is too far away, depending on the weather, it will stop within half a day at most.

But when Xie Ning went to look for Xiao Xingyu with a lot of worries in the morning, the other party was not in the inn, but Aunt Yu was still there. From what Aunt Yu said, she didn't quite know where Xiao Xingyu went, only that Xiao Xingyu Order down, don't start the journey today, but stay in Wuyou City for one more day.

Xie Ning didn't quite understand what he meant, he was looking for Xiao Xingyu to say goodbye.

For some reason, he failed to say goodbye to Xiao Xingyu, and he didn't leave without saying goodbye. Instead, he went back to his room and waited until noon, when he heard the door of the next room opened. Someone entered for a while, and then went out again soon. up.

Xie Ning grabbed the sword and opened the door to go out, but was stunned by the scene in front of him.

Under the drowsy sky, their guest room was in the backyard of the inn, and there was a wide corridor in front of the door to shelter from the rain. At this time, in front of the next door, Xiao Xingyu was dressed in plain white, squatting in front of a copper plate, Throwing paper money into it, a fire ignited in the copper plate, swallowing the paper money in an instant, while Xiao Xingyu kept putting the paper money, while muttering something in a low voice, with a slightly downcast expression.

Xie Ning went forward, but when he heard the voice, he turned his head, raised his hand holding the paper money and waved to Xie Ning, with a three-point smile on his face, a little forced.

Xie Ning asked him, "What are you doing?"

Xiao Xingyu lowered his head and said while burning paper money: "Today is my brother's memorial day, I will burn some paper money for him... Well, although it is not that no one sweeps his grave, I always feel that I should burn some paper money for him , lest he forget me."

"Your brother?" Xie Ning seemed a little confused.

"Didn't you say that your brothers in your family want to kill you?"

Xiao Xingyu smiled, and simply sat in front of his threshold, holding a branch in one hand and stirring the things burned in the copper plate, and sighed with a smile: "It's not that..."

He looked at the rain curtain under the eaves, feeling a little sentimental.

"My family has many brothers, and the family is big. I rank fourth, and there are three elder brothers in front of me. The elder brother and I have a big age difference, and we hardly have any contact with each other. The second brother, who is about my age, is very high-spirited, but He is smart, and my dad likes him too. There is also a third brother, who was born a few days earlier than me, but before a hundred days, a cold will be gone. Further down, it is me, the seventh oldest who wants to kill me , is now the head of the family, and my father can't control him anymore."

He also thought it was funny when he said that, he patted the side to make Xie Ning sit down, thinking that Xiao Qian is the most powerful Patriarch in the whole world, so it was a bit funny to say that, so he sighed again.

"Speaking of which, I have a younger brother and younger sister. My younger brother is twelve years old. He is only nine years old this year. My eighth sister and him are twins. But now I am not at home. My poor little brother has to take care of his mother alone. It's the responsibility of my younger sister, the brat is only nine years old, I don't know what's going on now..."

Xie Ning sat down and said, "You miss home?"

"It's a bit..." Xiao Xingyu said: "But I will implicate them when I go back, forget it."

A little helpless, even more powerless.

Xiao Xingyu threw a few pieces of paper money into the fire, and continued: "Today is my second brother's memorial day, and I will go to worship him every year. If I can't make it this year, just burn some paper money."

Suddenly I remembered four years ago, this day was also a rainy day, there were almost no people on the street, Xiao Xingyu missed the appointment for some reason, and when he looked back, his second brother had already passed away...

Xie Ning seemed to be stunned, his eyes widened slightly, and he opened his lips and asked in a low voice: "Today is the fourth day of the lunar new year?"

Xiao Xingyu smiled and said, "That's right, it's the fourth day of May."

Xie Ning's face under the mask suddenly paled, and even his lips lost their color in an instant. He didn't speak for a long time, his eyes fixed on the heavy rain, and his fingertips holding the long sword trembled slightly.

Xiao Xingyu didn't notice, and said to himself: "My second brother died unexpectedly, but I know who the murderer is, and I want to avenge him."

When he said this, his expression was rare and serious.

He has never said these words to others, and several people have vaguely guessed the inside story, and they are all confused by his side of indulging in beauty and not doing business in the past.He has been investigating this matter for many years, and it is almost time to find out the truth, but there is no evidence for a long time, and he has no way to talk about it, but he mentioned one or two things in front of Xie Ning.

He still doesn't understand that Xie Ning is no longer just a lifesaver and ordinary friend in his heart, but he can't think of what else they can do other than friends.

In the end, Xie Ning didn't propose to break up. It's not that Xie Ning forgot, but after hearing Xiao Xingyu's words, he became terrified. After a while, he made an excuse and hurried back to the room, locking himself in the room until the next day. Xiao Xingyu only saw him again a few days ago.

But Xiao Xingyu has always believed in him, and on that day yesterday, he actually thought more, not only his second brother Xiao Luo, but also another person.

This happens every year, Xiao Xingyu can imagine that at this very moment, he should be in the Drunken Immortal Building, wearing a gorgeous costume, depicting gorgeous and heavy makeup, wearing a beautiful beaded crown, and throwing himself on the unmanned stage. Roll up your water sleeves, sing a night of opera, and drink a night of wine.

The high-pitched tune, the mellow opera tone, did not stop until his throat became hoarse. Only he would remember Xiao Luo's undead year after year like him, and he could not sleep at night like him.

That too was a poor man.

Every time Xiao Xingyu thought of him, the guilt in his heart almost crushed him to death.

On the third day after entering Wuyou City, the sky cleared and they would finally set off.

The few of them were going out of the city early in the morning, Xie Ning led the way, Xiao Xingyu followed as usual, no one saw them, after they left, in a small corner next to the tall plaque in front of the inn, a A steel needle was firmly nailed there, and the bright red tassels fluttered in the wind. If someone looked up, he would definitely notice it.

noon.

Having reached an unknown hillside, Xie Ning stopped and waited for the two people behind him to catch up, before saying, "This is Qiufengling."

Xiao Xingyu was actually a little tired, took a breath, and said with a smile: "This scenery is not bad."

This Qiufeng Ridge is very high. Looking down from here, you can see the scenery hundreds of miles away, and the mountains and rivers are beautiful.

Xie Ning pointed to another place, "That's Baijiazhai, you must avoid this road in your itinerary."

Xiao Xingyu was curious: "Why?"

Xie Ning said: "There are three people in the Jianghu who must not be messed with, the red-clothed Raksha Yannangui, the soul-hunting envoy Situ Jing, and the other is the poisonous son Lin Chuyun who lives in seclusion in the Baijiazhai."

Xiao Xingyu nodded: "Sounds great, but why did you say 'you' instead of 'us'?"

Xie Ning chuckled, "You guessed right, I'm going to part ways with the two of you."

Xiao Xingyu was stunned for a moment, and said with a dry smile: "Then I forgot, I didn't say anything just now, and I didn't guess anything, let's continue on our way."
