Fellow!Stop!

Picking the narrow alleys that few people pass by, passing through the small woods in the outskirts of Jincang Town, you will arrive at Qingshan Town.Xuan Yi continued to walk around the outer edge of Qingshan Town, which was still very close to Jincang Town. He was still very careful in his actions for fear of meeting someone from the Xuan family who came to look for him.

Xuan Yi decided to go through the thorn bushes at the foot of Jiaolong Mountain. After leaving Qingshan Town, he took the Jinghe waterway, which was much safer and safer than taking the land road.

He found some leaves on the side of the road, and he wrapped the leaves around his legs with hemp rope to prevent them from being scratched by thorns later.

The terrain of the thornbush is relatively flat, but because it is full of thorns, it often pierces the pants of pedestrians, so there are not many people walking.

Xuan Yi walked slowly here for a while, and the leaves on his legs were scratched and cracked.

Seeing that there were still a few feet left before he could pass through, suddenly, there was a "dong" on his head, and something hit him.

Xuan Yi saw clearly what fell at his feet, it seemed to be a ripe wild fruit, round and red, but he didn't know what kind of fruit it was.

wild fruit?Where did it come from?

Xuan Yi looked around, and saw a small figure on a tall wild banyan tree around him.

A fluffy little wild monkey, covered in gray and white fluff, with round, dark and watery eyes, looks only four or five months old.

a little familiar...

Xuan Yi thought for a while before he remembered that this was the strange-looking little wild monkey that he and Meng Che rescued in the forest at the foot of Jiaolong Mountain that day.

"chirp"

Xuan Yi was surprised and amused to meet an acquaintance here, no, a familiar monkey.Then he teased it and said, "Ha! Are you calling me?"

"Chirp, chirp..." The little wild monkey bared its teeth at him, turned its eyes a few times, scratched its furry, slightly bulging belly, and dropped another round red fruit.It seems to say again: "I don't want to call you."

Xuan Yi bent down to pick up the two wild fruits, rubbed them on his body a few times, opened his mouth "click" and bit down.

The fruit is crisp and juicy, the taste is sweet and refreshing with a slight sourness, and the taste is very good.

Autumn is dry, Xuan Yi has been walking non-stop for two hours, and his mouth is already parched, but this fruit came in time.Xuan Yi gnawed two of them in a row, feeling that his thirst was quenched and his hunger was satisfied, and he slammed his mouth after eating, feeling a little unsatisfied.

The little monkey squatted on the tree, waited quietly for him to finish eating, and threw another one down for him.

Xuan Yi picked up the third fruit thrown from above, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.

This little monkey seems to be quite human, he knows how to repay his kindness, and he also knows that he has not eaten enough?

While nibbling on the third fruit, Xuan Yi looked up into the wet and round eyes of the little wild monkey.

"Thank you! Goodbye." Xuan Yi raised the fruit in his hand, smiled brightly at the little wild monkey, turned and continued on his way.Although there are few people here, it is still not safe.The Xuan clan is entrenched inland, and few people know how to swim, so they seldom extend their power to various types of livelihoods on the water. He needs to go to the Jing River as soon as possible to be a little more at ease.

Who wanted to walk a few steps, the little wild monkey jumped forward and back, and followed closely every step.

Xuan Yi scratched his head in confusion, stopped and turned around to look at the little figure on the tree, then wondered: "Little thing, I'm running for my life, why are you following me?"

The wild monkey screamed "chirp chirp chirp", but Xuan Yi still couldn't understand after talking for a long time.

"Don't follow me anymore, I'm an unlucky person, you'd better find your companion."

Xuan Yi smiled wryly for a while, and hurried forward again, passed through the thorn bushes, and came to a ferry not far from the Jing River.

Xuan Yi thought that the monkey should have run away this time, but when he looked back, the monkey still followed him.

Now he was surprised, could this little monkey really follow him?

Xuan Yi touched his chin, thinking that he would be alone all the way through the wind and rain in the future, and it would be a good thing if there was a little monkey to accompany him to relieve his boredom.So, he asked tentatively, "Are you really planning to follow me?"

The wild monkey nodded as if he understood.Xuan Yi wondered: "Hey! Can you really understand me?"

The wild monkey nodded again, and threw another wild fruit at him by the way, his little eyes slanted, as if he thought he was an idiot.

Xuan Yi was amused by the cute and spiritual appearance of the little monkey, and said: "Alright, then come down and sit on my shoulders. I don't have any good things, but a few fruits can still support you. From now on, I will follow you." I am my monkey. Be obedient and don’t run around, you understand?”

Before it could answer, Xuan Yi stretched out his hand and tapped its petite and furry head, the monkey's head was almost as big as his fist, it was such a cute little thing.

One person and one monkey found a small boat, and Xuan Yi chartered the boat.Except for an old man who was rowing, he was the only one on board.Xuan Yi is out alone, which is a special situation.In his opinion, anyone is suspicious.Simply do not ride with others.

The waterway is long, looking at the wide river in the distance, there is a vast mist and mist.Xuan Yi leaned lazily in the cabin, the little monkey squatted on his stomach and fell asleep soundly.

I can't keep calling you little thing, can I?deserve a name.This is the monkey going the same way through thick and thin in the future, at least we should respect it.

Animals are now more reliable to him than people.

Lovingly touching its small body, Xuan Yi vaguely recalled that in the past, his mother raised a cat and loved it very much. She once called that cat Songzi.

Recalling his loving mother, Xuan Yi couldn't help feeling sad, his eyes wet.He suppressed his tears and suppressed his longing in the bottom of his heart.After looking at the wild monkey sleeping soundly, he decided to call it a pine nut, which would at least make him feel closer to his deceased mother.

Xuan Yi pulled the little monkey's slumped body closer to his stomach, nodded its round head, and smiled softly.

A few inches of warmth, although small, are enough.

*********

At night, the mountains and mist on the Biying Qingwu Peak are filled with mist, and the autumn wind passes by, rolling up the branches and leaves layer by layer, rippling like fine waves, making a bleak and lonely sound.

Xuan Yi climbed the thousand stone steps, raised his eyes to look at the majestic and simple gate of Biying Qingwu Peak, feeling somewhat sad and excited in his heart.

I think back then when I was young and flirtatious, I just entered school, what a beautiful scene.I didn't expect to come this time, but I could only look at the gate furtively.

However, after looking around for a while, Xuan Yi found that the two night lanterns in front of the mansion gate were not lit.

The night lanterns of Biying Qingwu Peak are always bright every night, there is only one case, it is dark.That is: whenever the Meng clan has a serious illness or a funeral, they will extinguish the night lanterns to inform the world that it is inconvenient to receive guests.At the beginning of the Meng family, Chuxiu learned Duan's family rules, Xuan Yi knew this very well.

Recalling this past, Xuan Yi frowned unconsciously.

There was no white gauze hanging outside Biying Qingwu Peak, so no one should have died.Then, the owner's family is seriously ill.

For some reason, thinking about this, Xuan Yi suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, feeling dull and oppressed in his chest, and he even struggled to breathe.

No, definitely not!Meng Che's cultivation base is so high that he almost surpassed his two elder brothers, so he must be fine!

Xuan Yi had no choice but to pull the corner of his mouth into a smile, laughing that he might be making too much of a fuss.The head of the Meng family has dozens of people, how could the first thought be that Meng Che is ill.Xuan Yi shook his head mockingly, placed the pine nuts on a nearby tree, walked around the gate of the mansion, and walked along the black tiles and white walls of Biying Qingwu Peak, until he was close to the back mountain of Biying Qingwu Peak In the place where it was, he jumped lightly and flipped in.

Walking tens of zhang south from Jinglanxuan, you will find Lanfangxuan where Meng Che lives.

Seeing the plaque of Lanfangxuan from a distance, Xuan Yi's heart beat faster.

Thinking that he was about to meet that person, he subconsciously raised the corner of his mouth and stepped a little faster.

However, when I approached Lanfangxuan, I found that the main entrance of Lanfangxuan was wide open at this time, and there were servants who kept coming in and out with basins of water and changed clothes. The door is also wide open left and right.

Xuan Yi's heart skipped a beat, and he didn't care that he might be regarded as a thief who trespassed on Biying Qingwu Peak at this moment, so he ran over like the wind with both feet.

As soon as he ran to the practice room, Xuan Yi glanced in through the door, and was shocked by the scene inside, as motionless as paraffin.

He... saw... what! ! ? ?

Originally there was only one stone platform in the practice room, and there were two stone pillars more than one foot high, and two chains as thick as human forearms were tied to the stone pillars. In the middle of the chains was a man with disheveled hair and struggling endlessly. There were streaks of blood and filth, and the moment Xuan Yi looked over, the man could barely close his blood-red eyes, his head slowly drooped, and he passed out, with gurgles flowing out from the corner of his mouth. blood.

Xuan Yi was so horrified that he couldn't be more horrified, because he saw clearly that the man was the unicorn in the world who would always stand in front of people, handsome and flawless——Meng Che.

how so? !How could this be so! ?Who can hurt him so badly?And why was he bound in chains?Seeing this scene, Xuan Yi froze in place as if his soul had come out of his body, unable to move a single bit.
