Castle Peak with rain

On the painting that Yinyuanhui received this time, it was a handsome man who could be called stunning.

Judging from the man's clothing and the two swords held in both hands, it is obvious that he is a disciple of Qixiu.

The man's name was written in the blank space next to the portrait——Yao Haixu.

This is the client's second commission.

The subject of the first entrusted investigation was a red-clothed believer named Shan Xuexue.

Regarding the subject of the investigation, the latest information updated in the current meeting is: dead.

The request of the client this time is to find the man in the painting.

Find out his whereabouts.

Regardless of the cost.

No matter how high the price, the client is willing to pay.

Although this kind of thing is not important to Yin Yuanhui who accepted the commission, the ink stains on the portrait have a few obvious smear marks.

Those are the tears dripped on the drawing paper by the painter when he was painting.

Zhang Junran was very worried.

Because Zhu Yiji hardly ate much these days.

It seems that I have never felt hungry.

Even Zhang Junran was not in the mood to eat properly.

Although unlike Zhu Yiji, he still feels hungry.

So at least he'll feed himself.

He also wanted to feed Zhu Yiji.

However, this matter was very difficult, he could only try his best to persuade Zhu Yiji to eat as much as possible, otherwise his body would not be able to bear it.

With Zhang Junran watching over and persuading her every day, Zhu Yiji did not become on a hunger strike at least.

Then they arrived in Yangzhou.

Zhu Yiji refused to go any further.

He said he would wait for news from Yinyuanhui in Yangzhou.

But this time, there was no news from Yinyuanhui.

Zhu Yiji's heart was always hanging and refused to let go.

Yangzhou.

shouxi Lake.

Qixiufang.

Yao Haixu.

Zhu Yiji couldn't move on.

Both body and heart were so heavy that he couldn't move half a step.

It seems that Yangzhou is a hurdle that cannot be passed.

Take a boat at the pier in the east of the city, and a boatman will take you to Qixiufang on the Slender West Lake.

Zhu Yiji couldn't go, didn't dare to go, but couldn't stay away.

So he was bound in Yangzhou.

One day, two days... day after day.

Sometimes weep.

Sometimes I drink.

One day, he suddenly thought that it was his business to stay here, and Zhang Junran's time would not be delayed for nothing.

So he said to Zhang Junran: "Brother Zhang, at the moment, I don't know when there will be news from Yinyuanhui. I just wait here by myself. You don't have to waste time with me. I'm fine... "

"Iji, are you driving me away?"

Zhang Junran has never felt so powerless.

"No, it's not."

Zhu Yiji didn't have the energy to think more, but he knew that things were not as Zhang Junran said.

"Don't you understand?"

"what?"

"To me, not being able to be with you is a waste of time."

"Brother Zhang..."

Zhang Junran has always cared about what Yao Haixu said before.

"Iji likes you so much, he told me himself, I don't think you will let him down?"

Zhu Yiji neither admitted nor denied it at the time.

And Zhang Junran always wanted to know whether what Yao Haixu said was true.

It's just that since then, there has been no chance to ask questions.

Zhang Junran originally thought that Zhu Yiji would not have the same feelings as himself.

Maybe it's because they're both men.

Perhaps it was because Zhu Yiji was innocent and ignorant.

Before Zhu Yiji appeared, Zhang Junran never thought that he would fall in love with a man.

But falling in love is falling in love, so how can we have time to consider whether the other party is a man or a woman.

It's just that for the world, since ancient times, the order of parents and the words of matchmakers emphasize the right marriage and mutual benefit.

Therefore, even if a man and a woman fall in love, they may not end well.

What's more, there are three kinds of unfilial piety, and having no offspring is the greatest.

Passing on the family line and continuing the incense has always been the top priority of a family.

Not to mention a family of officials like Zhu Yiji.

Naturally, he, who is also a man, cannot tolerate such sentiments.

This is why Zhang Junran deliberately alienated Zhu Yiji at first.

He just didn't want to drag the two of them into an unbearable quagmire.

However, the matter of love, only because it is true, can not be restrained.

There is no other person who can suppress himself, and he thinks he is true, but in fact he is not true enough.

In the world, there is a theory of the most emotional and the most sexual, or there are those who are called people of temperament.

It's just how many people can actually do it.

What price will be paid.

For Zhang Junran, no matter what the price is, it is not as important as his true heart.

But for Zhu Yiji, what happened?

All of this has been put on hold because of Yao Haixu's accident.

All that hangs over them is the cloud of sorrow and the dark mist of heartache.

Zihong, today, Huashan has the first snow of this year.

How are you in Wanhua?

I'll see you again when I'm free.

On a whim, Huang Zior wrote a letter to Huang Zihong.

When he woke up that morning, what greeted him was the first snow of Huashan this winter.

He really wanted to tell Huang Zihong about it.

So I wrote that letter.

Huang Zihong was very surprised when he received this letter from his fellow Fangfeng.

When Gao Yun entered the room, Huang Zihong had just finished reading the letter.

"Huang Zi probably sent it." Huang Zihong raised the letter in his hand, "He said it was snowing on Mount Hua."

"Would you like to take a look, Zihong?" Gao Yunli asked.

Huang Zihong was silent for a while.

"Go ahead."

Gao Yunyi probably wanted to go, to see the snow on Mount Hua, Huang Zihong thought.

"If you want to go, go together." Gao Yun said, "I just want to go with you, besides, I don't feel relieved to leave you alone."

That's right.

Huang Zihong chuckled faintly, and said, "It's as if before you came to Huagu, I would not be alone someday."

"It used to be the past, but it's different now that I'm here."

Gao Yunli was absolutely sure.

"Besides, if we don't go together, what if I miss you?"

Huang Zihong didn't understand why Gao Yunyi could say such words so calmly.

Such words, such calmness, only Gao Yunli can say it.

In the past, Huang Zihong would not take it seriously because he was not serious.

His face was expressionless and he didn't take it seriously.

But hearing such words now, Huang Zihong's ears felt a little hot.

The heartbeat also becomes a little faster inexplicably.

There will be some joy in my heart.

But don't know how to react.

If Gao Yunzhi told him that he had kissed him, Huang Zihong would probably, no, definitely become angry.

He can't even believe it, let alone ask him to admit it.

As for embarrassment, it is because you don't believe that you have done it, which does not mean that you will not secretly doubt whether you have really done it.

It's normal for such a thin-skinned person as Huang Zirong to deceive himself and others.

Huang Zihong didn't answer what Gao Yunli said just now, but walked out of the room.

Gao Yunli followed and walked out, not knowing what he was going to do.

However, Huang Zihong walked to the open space, and took off a quaint pen hanging from his waist with his backhand, which was much larger than ordinary writing pens.

Gao Yun asked: "Zi Rong? Do you want this?"

Huang Zihong said: "Competition."

Gao Yunling confirmed: "We? Now?"

Huang Zihong nodded his head and said "hmm".

Seeing Gao Yunlin walking across from him and drawing out the double knives behind his back, Huang Zihong began to use his pen to make moves.

Gao Yunlian accepted the move and said, "Why do you suddenly think of competing with me?"

Huang Zihong said: "Practice. From now on, I will compete with you every day. Don't let me do it on purpose."

Gao Yun replied: "I know."

Huang Zihong was not Gao Yunli's opponent in the first place, and he was distracted by talking, so he lost within a few rounds.

Huang Zihong adjusted his breath for a moment, then raised his pen and said, "Come again."

If he really didn't give in to Huang Zihong at all, Gao Yunyi couldn't do it.

Only after he understood Huang Zihong's purpose, he used words to guide Huang Zihong to make moves from time to time during the moves, and passed on his own experience to Huang Zihong little by little.

Huang Zihong didn't say anything, but he appreciated it in his heart.

In terms of martial arts, Huang Zihong does not lack skills, what he lacks is only actual combat methods, experience and skills.

But these also take a certain amount of time to hone and accumulate.

Fortunately, since Huang Zihong is versatile, his understanding is not bad.

One teaches and the other learns, and the one who teaches has no reservations.

With this kind of competition every day, Huang Zihong's progress can be imagined in time.

Huashan has started to snow, but Qingyan is still full of flowers and leaves.

And Yangzhou City, even in the cold winter, is still bustling with people from all walks of life.

The news from Yinyuanhui finally came.

What can be said is that no information about Yao Haixu has been obtained so far, people are continuing to investigate, and a progress report will be given after a while.

Waiting is tiring.

Especially the pure and undivided waiting.

How long can a person persist with such a tired and bleak result?

This is not the way to go.

Zhang Junran decided that Zhu Yiji would take him away if he refused to leave.

He should be distracted now, to make the effects of what has happened fade away.

Instead of letting grief take control, stagnating in place and unable to move forward.

Naturally, Qixiu couldn't go, but neither could Changgemen.

The original plan was that he would send Zhu Yiji back to Changge Gate, and by the way, he could also stay and travel around.

But if he goes back to Changge Gate now, Zhu Yiji will still be trapped in the past.

It is also unwise to bring him back to Tiance Mansion.

He must be taken elsewhere.

How many places to distract him.

It's time to slowly drag Zhu Yiji out of the shadows.

Zhang Junran thought about doing something, so he went to the fireworks shop.

The shopkeeper took out a bunch of hand-painted renderings of fireworks. Although Zhang Junran had never set off fireworks for others, he had seen some old types of fireworks set off by others.

Too many people are released, and the novelty has long been lost.

Zhang Junran asked if there were any new types of fireworks.

The shopkeeper recommended several kinds with pictures, and explained them in detail for Zhang Junran.

Zhang Junran listened, most of them were flamboyant, but some were fleeting.

If the exaggerated ones are released for women, or the fleeting ones are used to add icing on the cake, they will probably win a smile from the girl.

Unfortunately, that is someone else's business.

It's the way other people set off fireworks.

It is inappropriate or even embarrassing between him and him.

In the end, Zhang Junran chose the one he liked the most, and paid for it.

Yiji, we should go.
