Ushio

Tossing all night, it seemed to hear a rooster crowing that could not be discerned from a distance, and the foggy sky shone through the cracks in the night, like a hazy veil, covering the surrounding scenery before dawn.

The little girl howled like she was venting for almost a cup of tea, and finally lay down beside the tank with a tired expression, stared straight at them, and choked, "Who are you?"

Chu Yan looked at the little girl's familiar eyebrows and eyes, and the panic on his face was gradually replaced by boredom. It was as if he had knocked over a messy seasoning jar in his heart, and all kinds of indescribable smells flooded his heart instantly.

Speaking of the three most hated people in the previous life, Fu Shiyu is the first, Feng Changxing is the second, and the one behind them is definitely...

The woman who almost married Fu Shiyu back then.

Fu Shiyu, who originally thought he was late, let out a heavy sigh of relief.

——It's good to be alive.

After patiently waiting for her to finish crying, Fu Shiyu approached slowly, and said with a slight smile, "Why are you hiding here?"

"Mother and the others said to play hide-and-seek, and you have to be found before you can come out."

Fu Shiyu asked again, "What's your name?"

"Mianmian." The little girl said in a waxy voice, "My name is Shi Mianmian."

It seems that I found the right one.

The boulder hanging in Fu Shiyu's heart fell to the ground completely, and he stretched out his hand to gently hug her out of the tank, squatted down and looked at her with a warm smile, "Okay, Mianmian, the game is over now."

"Can you answer a few questions for my brother?"

As if seeing his gentle face, not like a bad guy, Shi Mianmian gradually put away her fear and nodded obediently.

Fu Shiyu's eyes softened, and he reached out to touch her head, his voice sounded extraordinarily warm.

"Good boy."

Chu Yan glanced at him coldly.

In his previous life, Fu Shiyu never smiled like this. He often greeted people with a smiling face on the surface, but in reality he was full of bad luck.

Later, someone said that Fu Shiyu was very similar to the third prince, but Chu Yan didn't think so.

The third prince can be regarded as black-bellied and cunning at best, but this person is warm-hearted and cold-hearted, and his heart is more indifferent than anyone else.

Of course, one person must be an exception.

Recalling the unsightly scene before he died, Chu Yan immediately felt his stomach churning, and Chu Yan closed his eyes.

——Disgusting stuff.

After not seeing his parents for so long, Shi Mianmian immediately asked, "Where is my father and mother!"

Fu Shiyu's throat choked.

If he told the truth, it might cause a lot of psychological shadow to this girl, he thought for a moment, thinking of coaxing her to go over.

"them…"

"Dead." Chu Yan interrupted with a cold face, staring at Shi Mianmian calmly, as if taking revenge, and said word by word: "All dead."

"... "

The dumbfounded Fu Shiyu felt depressed for a while, and realized that this person must be deliberately embarrassing himself.

Fortunately, Shi Mianmian didn't quite understand the meaning of death, so she asked anxiously, "What does death mean?"

"To die is to go to a very beautiful place." Fu Shiyu explained before Chu Yan: "There are lakes and mountains, red and green, besides the beautiful scenery on good days, you can also eat all kinds of delicacies."

Chu Yan sneered when he heard his nonsense.

Once the loess is buried, one dies, and there is no such thing as a paradise or a paradise, but it is just a nonsense compiled by the world greedy for life and afraid of death to comfort themselves.

The only thing that is true is one.

That is, if the obsession is too deep after death, it will turn into an evil ghost who comes to the world to seek his life.

And now he is a ghost wandering around the world, specially coming to take the life of Fu Shiyu and the prince.

The little girl who heard this said innocently: "Then can I go too?"

"Yes." Fu Shiyu smiled softly and said, "You can go when you are too old to walk anymore."

"Then what if I miss them?"

Fu Shiyu pointed to the faintly white night, with a few morning stars hanging on it, and lied in an old-fashioned way: "They will become stars after they die."

"Just talk to the stars."

"Really?" Shi Mianmian's eyes lit up, full of hope.

The little girl has always been full of curiosity about this kind of experience that she has never heard of, and she will not have any doubts in her heart.

She looked longingly at the sky, and said, "Will they hear me after I say it?"

"Ah."

Fu Shiyu responded in a very light tone.

This level is over.

He looked into the little girl's eyes again, and finally asked about something serious, "Do you know Gangyuan Saber Saint?"

The little girl shook her head blankly, "I don't know."

Gang Yuan Sword Saint...

Chu Yan's eyes moved when he heard the name.

Gradually began to understand Fu Shiyu's purpose of coming here.

If I remember correctly, ten years ago, shortly after Emperor Sui Qing came to the throne, he spent a lot of time looking for a knight in the Jianghu.

This chivalrous man dominated the martial arts with a Gangyuan knife, but he didn't expect that when he was in the limelight, he would retreat into the world and never disappeared.

But even though he is not in the arena, the knights in the arena still respectfully call him Gangyuan Saber Saint.

Chu Yan was not interested in the past of this sword master. He mentioned it because he remembered a rumor about this sword master.

At that time, there was a knight who was jealous of the prestige of Gangyuan Sword Sage, and spread everywhere that he possessed rare treasures and practiced sorcery. As the rumors spread more and more widely, there were many famous and decent sects who were condemned on the surface, but were actually jealous. .

Seeing that the situation had reached the point where it was impossible to deal with it, the various sects forced Gangyuan Daosheng to Wulong Mountain.

The Gangyuan Saber Sage had no intention of fighting, and had a pleasant face at first, trying to persuade him with good words that he didn't have any rare treasures on him, and that his practice was the right way.

But those members of the sect not only did not believe it, but also took the lead in launching an offensive. Gang Yuan Dao Sheng was forced to have no choice but to meet with his weapons.

Originally, the Gangyuan Sword Saint was merciful and did not kill him, but a famous sect elder took advantage of his unpreparedness and jumped to attack him. Although the Gangyuan Sword Saint easily dodged, the wooden painting tube on his waist was accidentally caught by Jianfeng. Cut it apart, and a scroll with a beautiful woman fell out of it.

In the painting, the woman is magnificent, pure and holy, with a little blush between her eyebrows, she looks like a fairy from heaven at first glance.

But before he saw it clearly, he was taken back into his arms by the Gangyuan Sword Saint.

Gang Yuan Dao Sheng, who was originally friendly, turned his face in an instant, and Gang Yuan Dao felt the vigorous killing intent, and began to tremble.

According to legend, the Gangyuan Sword Master who was furious that day disappeared for no reason after slaughtering half of the decent knights. Later, the rumors about this sword master were both good and evil. As for his disappearance, there are endless and varied theories.

The most widely circulated theory is that the scroll is actually a portrait of Avalokitesvara endowed with immortality. After being discovered, the Gangyuan Saber Saint was afraid of being stolen, so he hid his name and lived outside the world.

Later, after Sui Qing ascended the throne, he heard the rumors and sent people to look for the trace of Gangyuan Sword Saint, but they found nothing.

The purpose of Fu Shiyu's coming here must be for this portrait of Guanyin, but for some reason, this time seems to be a few days earlier than in the previous life.

During the few days when Fu Shiyu disappeared in the previous life, his father had already arrived in the capital, but this time there was no news on the way.

Seeing that Shi Mianmian said he didn't know, Fu Shiyu guessed that she was young and might not be aware of the rumors in the Jianghu. After a moment of deliberation, he hesitated to name another person.

"What about Yan Chu?"

Chu Yan was shocked when he heard the name, and his pupils shrank slightly.

After a long time, there was a sinister smile on the corner of his mouth, his face was gloomy, and his eyes were filled with frost.

That's it!

He remembered that when Yan Chu was a small soldier, his former residence was in a small village under a deep mountain, but because of his age, this incident was gradually forgotten by the world.

OK!

Fu Shiyu!

You really have foresight and foresight, and there are no mistakes!

It turns out that I really started planning so early...

Chu Yan's eyes were gloomy, and the resentment that was about to burst out was accumulated in his chest. Right now, he wished he could cramp this man, skin him, drink his blood and eat his flesh.

"General Yan!" Shi Mianmian's eyes lit up and said happily, "I know!"

"General Yan and Madam Xi are the heroes of our village!"

"Who is Mrs. Xi?" Fu Shiyu's eyes were somewhat puzzled.

Seemingly annoyed that he didn't even know this, Shi Mianmian puffed up and muttered, "Idiot, Mrs. Xi is General Yan's wife."

After being scolded by a girl, Fu Shiyu showed no shame or anger on his face, and smiled with a good-natured smile.

The reason why he left the palace at this time was because the book left by the original owner mentioned the birthday of Emperor Sui Qing, and he was asked to find a statue of Guanyin as the birthday gift of Emperor Sui Qing. Chu's people.

He specially checked the ancient books, and probably knew the life story of General Yan.

Although Fu Shiyu still can't fully understand the content of this book, he gradually understands that every sentence left behind may be a crucial link.

It's just that Shi Mianmian's parents were killed when they came to the village ahead of time according to the book.

If it wasn't for the delay due to the incident on the way, maybe...

Fu Shiyu thought of something, turned his head hastily, and found that Chu Yan was still standing behind him.

His face was indifferent, his eyes were dark, and he didn't see anything unusual.

Fu Shiyu was puzzled, looked at the expressionless face of the man, pondered for a moment, and did not continue talking with Shi Mianmian.

"Brother?" Seeing his sudden silence, Shi Mianmian called out a little timidly.

Fu Shiyu came back to his senses, and he could faintly hear softness in his words, "Shall I take you somewhere?"

"Where are you taking me?" Shi Mianmian blinked her almond eyes and looked at him anxiously.

"Three Rivers Town."

"Hmm..." Shi Mianmian's face showed a trace of embarrassment, Nuonuo said: "Mianmian's home is here, why are you going there?"

Fu Shiyu took her hand and explained patiently, "Because Mianmian's parents are away, Mianmian will live with her aunt in the future."

Chu Yan was startled, and suddenly frowned, "She won't go with you?"

"Why did she go with me?" Fu Shiyu couldn't help asking with a puzzled face.

"... "

Chu Yan remained silent.

When Fu Shiyu came back from his previous life, this girl obviously followed him back home.

Fu Shiyu said that he was the child of his distant relatives, so he didn't ask any further questions, and she grew up in the palace ever since.

"Aunt?" Shi Mianmian's childish voice interrupted Chu Yan's thoughts.

She looked puzzled and said, "I don't know any aunt?"

"We got to know each other when we went."

After Fu Shiyu finished speaking, he stood up and went to the house to carry his bags.

She planned to send Shi Mianmian to Sanhe Town first, and then return to bury her parents' corpses.

Originally about to lead Shi Mianmian and turn around to leave, out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of someone standing aside.

Fu Shiyu thought that if he didn't even say hello, it would not be good to just leave like this.

"Thank you little brother for your help tonight, then let's go first"

"I'll go too." Chu Yan interrupted abruptly.

Fu Shiyu's face stiffened, and he asked suspiciously, "Are you going to Sanhe Town too?"

"Ah."

"Why?"

Chu Yan said: "Visit relatives."

Fu Shiyu hummed, pretending not to understand what he meant, and said with a gentle smile: "We walk slowly, so we won't go with the little brother."

The more he didn't want to go with him, the more Chu Yan suspected that there was a ghost in that place, and said sadly, "I can wait."

"Hehe." Fu Shiyu was speechless for a while, then laughed dryly, "No need."

Chu Yan stared at him coldly, and said sarcastically, "That's how you treat your savior."

"..." Fu Shiyu frowned slightly, and said lightly, "Didn't you mean sword practice?"

"Yeah." Chu Yan didn't change his face, "By the way, save someone."

Seeing that the sky was clear, Fu Shiyu didn't want to delay any longer.

He looked at the person standing opposite, slightly raised the corners of his mouth, although he looked like a smiling face, but the smile didn't reach his eyes, and he said succinctly: "Yes."

After finishing speaking, he led the little girl beside him with a confused face and walked out of the village.

Although nothing unusual could be seen on the surface, Chu Yan could still hear the indifference in Fu Shiyu's words.

He was happy to see the fleeting worries and anguish on that easy-going face when things went beyond expectations, because only in this way could he clearly see into this person's heart.

Chu Yan's irritated mood improved slightly, and he followed with strides.
