Broken and swollen by myself

Yu Yan had noticed from the very beginning that this young man in red seemed to have an indescribable hostility towards him.

And I don't know where I offended him, so I'm afraid I won't get anything good if I go up rashly.

After hesitating, the three merged into the crowd and walked away.Yu Yan shook his head helplessly. If there is fate, we should meet again. Just a few people from the Wulin League came to invite him to meet the leader of the alliance. .

Lu Ziqing and the others returned to the house and found that He Xiangxiang was already awake. She was standing in the yard with her waist-length black hair hanging loose, her slightly sick face was unpainted, and her eyes were always watery, looking very pitiful.

Her gaze never left Shen Changge who was talking to two black-clothed swordsmen in the courtyard.

When she found out that Zhou Yitong had come in, He Xiangxiang's complexion changed, and her bloodless face looked a little paler. She avoided her eyes, clasped her hands tightly in front of her lower abdomen, and walked towards Shen Changge, When the distance was about the same, her feet softened and she leaned towards Shen Changge.

Sensing the movement, Shen Changge turned his head, and saw Zhou Yitong standing beside him with a condensed face, separating him and He Xiangxiang with the hilt of his sword.

And He Xiangxiang was biting his lip and stroking the bend of his elbow with his hand, as if he was enduring the pain.

She was both embarrassed and angry.Originally, she deliberately got close to Brother Shen in front of Zhou Yitong, wanting to alienate their feelings a little bit. After all, there is no real relationship between men and men. At most, Brother Shen was just confused for a while. , the two will always quarrel.

But unexpectedly, she was cut off before she could get close, and he took the opportunity to use the hilt of his sword to spare no effort to give her a severe shock.

Obviously she had calculated the distance accurately, and she didn't know where this man was so fast. His martial arts seemed to be more unpredictable than she imagined.

"Are you okay?" Shen Changge really didn't pay attention to what happened here because he was listening carefully to the two people in front of him.

He Xiangxiang looked at him eagerly, opened his lips and was about to speak, Zhou Yitong said coldly, "Since Miss He is too weak to stand, she should go to bed and lie down."

He Xiangxiang is afraid and hates Zhou Yitong now. Hearing what he said, he glared at him angrily, but then Shen Changge also said softly: "Miss He, go and rest. I left some broken money. Your master will take care of you."

Shen Changge's attitude was not bad, and he even spoke kindly, but He Xiangxiang heard a kind of alienation and indifference that could not be erased in his ears.

She couldn't feel sad at all, so she hurriedly asked: "Brother Shen, what do you mean? You are leaving?"

"Yeah." Shen Changge glanced at Lu Ziqing and Zhou Yuanjin who were squatting in the corner of the yard and playing with catching ants, and couldn't help smiling, and then continued to say to He Xiangxiang: "The leader of the Wulin League invited me to the banquet, I plan to go After a trip, they left with me. Miss He, you can continue to recuperate here, and leave on your own after you recover. "

His words were almost merciless, and He Xiangxiang's heart suddenly felt like it was suffering from oil.

She had already made up her mind, how could she leave like this willingly, her eyes turned red immediately, her voice choked up, and she pulled Shen Changge's sleeve with one hand, "Brother Shen, do you really, really don't want me? You really hate me Is it? You want to leave me like this?"

He Xiangxiang's reputation as the number one beauty in Liyang City was not exaggerated. Her appearance was already beautiful and outstanding, and in addition to being ill at this time, she was crying a little bit, making her even more lovable.

Then connect with what she said, and her begging and mournful expression, how can we prevent people who don't know from thinking wrong?

Seeing the eyes of the two swordsmen who delivered the post for the lord gradually became strange, Shen Changge knew that the two of them might have thought of him as a heartless person.But he is not stupid, how could he not know that He Xiangxiang did it on purpose.

He Xiangxiang was probably sure that he was soft-hearted and would not continue to say that he would leave her behind and make her unable to step down.

Even if the two of them didn't misunderstand what He Xiangxiang had with him, leaving behind a sick and weak woman was not a glorious thing in their eyes, and they probably would secretly cast aside it in their hearts.

Shen Changge is indeed easy to be compassionate, but it doesn't mean he likes to be influenced by such little tricks.

His complexion was gloomy, and just about to speak, He Xiangxiang's body softened, he put his hand on his forehead, closed his eyes and passed out.

Shen Changge subconsciously caught her, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Zhou Yitong sneering. Shen Changge was saddened and helpless by the gloating eyes, "Junior brother, I..."

Zhou Yitong raised his eyebrows, and choked on him unceremoniously, "Did you realize that the hot potato is hot now?"

Well, what's going on... The two swordsmen looked left and right, and it took a lot of effort to suppress their curiosity.

Seeing that Shen Changge was choked and unable to speak, he curled the corner of his mouth bitterly.

Zhou Yitong snorted again, unceremoniously: "If you don't throw it away now, you will burn it in the future."

Shen Changge knew that what he said was reasonable, but now it was really hard to get off.

Zhou Yitong folded his arms suddenly, and said coldly: "So in the future, brother, don't look at people as pitiful and just meddle in your own business to redeem the brothel girl. She will only pretend to be affectionate and think that you have taken a fancy to her, cowhide You can’t get rid of it like sugar, you’re asking for trouble.”

Oh oh oh it turned out to be so!But it's just like this, after all, this Great Xia Shen is really like the breeze and the moon, with an extraordinary bearing, it is inevitable for women to be tempted.The two swordsmen nodded silently. It seems that Shen Daxia got into trouble because of his kindness for a while, but this woman's appearance is not bad for Shen Daxia, but her identity is really...

"What nonsense are you talking about, brothel girls!"

Zhou Yitong's words were a bit poisonous, but how could He Xiangxiang, who was pretending to be dizzy, be startled and dismantle her tricks if he was not poisonous?

Seeing He Xiangxiang who had "passed out" leaning in Shen Changge's arms straightened up violently, changed his weak appearance just now, pointed at Zhou Yitong's nose domineeringly and cursed, "I didn't expect your heart to be so sinister , You actually said that I am a brothel girl!? Don’t you feel bad for making up a girl from a good family in front of others like this?!”

He Xiangxiang's "sit up startled in a dying illness" obviously frightened the two swordsmen, and they looked so pitiful just now, but they were all pretending!

This Shen Daxia is really pitiful, he is entangled even if he saves someone, alas.So what about beauty, look at this duplicity and arrogance, no matter how beautiful you are, you really can't enjoy it.

Not intending to continue watching, the two swordsmen immediately bid farewell to Shen Changge, their eyes were obviously sympathetic before leaving, and Shen Changge's eyelids twitched when he saw that look.

"Hey, don't go away! You haven't said anything clearly yet! Come back to me!!!" He Xiangxiang saw the two retreat quickly, his face flushed with anger, and his head became dizzy.

It's not pretending now, it's really dizzy.

When did she, Miss He, suffer such humiliation and call her a brothel girl? ! ! !

Shen Changge had already pushed her out of his arms while she was standing upright, and then retreated to Zhou Yitong. Zhou Yitong saw He Xiangxiang turn around with red eyes, as if vowing not to give up with him, and straightened his heart. Impatient, Shen Changge apologized first, "Miss He, I'm sorry, it was my junior brother who made a slip of the tongue just now."

"A gaffe? Just a gaffe?" He Xiangxiang saw that he was apologizing for Zhou Yitong, but his attitude was obviously partisan. He was full of grievances and depression and had nowhere to vent his eyes. "He did it on purpose, Brother Shen, can't you see?" ? He is deliberately humiliating me! He is such a vicious person, Brother Shen, how can you..."

Shen Changge frowned and interrupted her, "You still look weak, and you fainted just now, you'd better go to bed and lie down and rest."

Being kicked out again, He Xiangxiang was very angry, and stomped his feet, "I won't, I'll just stand here, and if you pass out, don't worry about me."

Shen Changge looked at her extremely coldly, then turned his face away, and said to Zhou Yitong in a slow tone: "Junior Brother, let's go in and pack our things, and go to the dinner party later."

Shen Changge thought he was very patient, but his patience was obviously exhausted at this moment. He pulled Zhou Yitong into the house without looking back.

Lu Ziqing was not far away, while catching ants under the tree, he pricked up his ears and listened to all the conversations in the book.

He secretly thought, He Xiangxiang had a temper in the original drama, but he didn't do it like this one now, and her relationship with Zhou Yitong was not so bad.

It was really influenced by the actor, maybe it has something to do with him joining this world.

But according to his understanding of Zhou Yitong, if he has no feelings for He Xiangxiang or hates her, but as long as she doesn't touch his bottom line or go too far, Zhou Yitong will definitely not waste any time and energy to deal with her she.

But judging from the situation just now, Zhou Yitong was obviously abnormal.

He seemed to have an indescribable malice towards He Xiangxiang, and his words were much sharper. There must be some reason for this.

What was the reason, he couldn't figure it out for a while.He hasn't recovered yet, and he is so stupid that he naturally doesn't know how to observe and ask.

So we just have to wait, since Lu Ziqing got the new system that time, his premonition of returning to normal has become stronger and stronger, he guessed that it should be almost soon.

On this day, the four of them took a carriage to be invited to a dinner party in a courtyard of Qi Yu, the leader of the Wulin League.Speaking of the leader Qi Yu, he is actually different from the traditional martial arts leader. His martial arts are not top-notch, but because he led people to kill the famous couple Xia Wanning and Feng Di in Wandu more than ten years ago. Gu Li was elected by everyone to be the leader of the alliance until now.

But in fact, there are quite a lot of young talents in Jianghu nowadays. Although the levels of various schools and schools are uneven, they are also full of flowers, each with its own splendor, so everyone does not have much intention of obeying this so-called martial arts alliance.

To use an inappropriate analogy, this Martial Arts League is somewhat similar to the "Jianghu Neighborhood Committee". Usually, it handles trivial matters between sects, holds a martial arts competition to discuss and learn from each other, and after the rise of the Demon Cult, occasionally comes to denounce the Demon Cult. Find a sense of presence in the activity.

But after so many years, Qi Yu has accumulated some reputation. Although he doesn't follow his lead, the famous people in the world will still give him face.

So when Qi Yu came to invite Shen Changge, Shen Changge did not refuse, in short, he just dropped by.

Shen Changge was still driving, and the other three sat in the carriage.

"Is there anyone else, is there anyone else?" After the carriage started to move, Lu Ziqing grabbed Zhou Yitong's wrist and asked very strangely, "Brother, is there anyone else?"

Now he is the only fool who still thinks about He Xiangxiang.

Seeing Zhou Yitong's lazy look, he leaned out and looked back, and he saw He Xiangxiang standing at the door, with resentful eyes and pale face, like a ghostly female ghost.

Before Lu Ziqing could take another look, he was dragged back by Zhou Yitong, and Lu Ziqing fell straight into his arms.

"Is it so good-looking? Gouging out your eyes again!" Zhou Yitong tugged at the base of his ears.

"Ah, she..."

"What about her, do you want to eat glutinous rice cakes?" Zhou Yitong didn't want him to mention that woman again, so he interrupted with food.

Just ask Lu Ziqing if there is anything to eat?So once I ate something, I didn't have time to ask any more questions.

However, with a clear mind, he knew from Zhou Yitong's attitude that He Xiangxiang was indeed disgusted by Zhou Yitong for some reason.Just like he was hated and disgusted by Yuan Jin because of his frivolity.

At the dinner, Qi Yu not only invited Shen Changge, but also other people.As soon as Lu Ziqing and the others entered the front hall, they attracted a lot of attention.

Leaving Lu Ziqing and Zhou Yuanjin aside, some people started talking to Zhou Yitong in low voices.

"Is this the one from the Lingyun sect? It is said that because of his unknown birth, he was forbidden by head Luo to go to the sect's martial arts competition. It's the first time I've seen her mysteriously for so many years."

"It's unexpectedly handsome... It's just that those eyes really look at people, and I don't know if the recent rumors in Jianghu are true."

"What rumor?"

"Oh, it's that evil spirit that is about to go into chaos. It is said that after the tragic death of the husband and wife, they came back and took possession of their bodies to take their lives. It's mysterious. Who knows if it's true or not."

"Hey, those two devils have been dead for ten years. If they want to come back and take their lives, we should wait for now? Isn't Alliance Leader Qi alive..."

"Don't forget that the husband and wife died together with their son... Isn't the ghost of the son coming back for revenge in the past ten years?"

"Hey, don't talk, don't talk, I feel very sinister when I hear you say that. Look at this kid, he does have a sinister and evil spirit."

The more they talked, the more unscrupulous they became, the more outrageous they said, Zhou Yitong had already heard those words in his ears, and ignored them with a look of indifference.

Shen Changge looked over there with a smile on his face, and the few people who had huddled together noticed their gaze, and suddenly their hearts skipped a beat, and they stopped talking in an instant, with a somewhat uncomfortable expression on their faces.

Shen Changge nodded, and asked politely as usual when Qi Yu, the ally leader, would come out. Several people shook their heads and said they didn't know, then shut up and didn't speak any more.

Shen Changge stopped talking too much, and after greeting four people, he took the three of them to find a relatively quiet place to sit down.

Before the dinner began, Qi Yu, who was tall and imposing, came out. He first apologized to everyone for being late due to the delay, and then called everyone to take their seats.Probably they wanted to use this to talk about some serious business. Zhou Yuanjin and Lu Ziqing, the two innocent "little friends" obviously didn't meet the standard for talking about serious business. Partial hall.

Lu Ziqing is heartless now, when he heard that there was food and drink, he happily dragged Zhou Yuanjin away happily.

Zhou Yitong turned his head to watch him walk away, frowning and was about to stand up and follow.

He is used to this person being in front of his eyes, within the control of his line of sight, and suddenly leaving, and leaving today when there are many people, his heart can't help but feel anxious, always thinking about it. Just watch him all the time.

"Yi Tong, sit down." Shen Changge, who was sitting next to him, noticed his movement, and gently but firmly held Zhou Yitong down, smiled at the person who was watching from the other side, and then turned his face slightly Then he said to him: "Don't worry, the side hall is next to it, and there are guards guarding it, the two of them will be fine in the past."

Zhou Yitong saw that Lu Ziqing had jumped far away, and his heart seemed to be on fire. Hearing what Shen Changge said, he suppressed his tone and said in a low voice: "I'd better go over and have a look. Anyway, I'm going to invite you, brother, for the dinner. It doesn't matter if you're there or not."

Zhou Yitong said the truth because he wanted to get away. He really didn't like it, and he was impatient to deal with such an occasion. However, in the ears of caring people, his words were a bit sour, and some people laughed desperately at the moment Standing up, he sarcastically said: "This young man is right. It is said that Alliance Master Qi asked us for something this time. It must be for people with extraordinary martial arts and ability to live here. Everyone speaks based on their strength. Convince me, I see that you have delicate skin and tender flesh..."

The person who spoke was the person sitting opposite Zhou Yitong. He had a long scar on his face and his face was very fierce. Then he grinned disdainfully, "If you're like this, it's better to go to the side hall with your little brothers and sisters to eat and drink. After all, you can eat and drink twice, and you won't make excuses for being so embarrassing." I believe everyone here will understand."

Zhou Yitong's golden pupils flickered slightly, and the body that was about to get up slowly sat down again after listening to the man's words.

He glanced at the man's face indifferently, his eyes paused almost imperceptibly, and without rebuttal, he quietly closed his eyes and drank from the teacup.

The man saw that he was not as cold and tough as he looked on the outside, on the contrary, he was weak and deceitful and didn't even dare to answer a word, so his smile was even more complacent. He was about to say something else, but Qi Yu quickly stood up and spoke, greeting everyone After eating and drinking, he interrupted him.

And Shen Changge caught a glimpse of Zhou Yitong's stable and peaceful appearance, and only felt his forehead start to throb slightly. He felt a little uneasy in his heart, and wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't say anything.

Not long after the banquet started, Qi Yu stood up, showing the purpose of today's banquet with a look of shame on his face, that is... Let the big guy help find his sister Qi Fenghuang!

"..." Everyone fell silent with wonderful expressions.

If the thoughts in their hearts could also turn into subtitles and fly into Qi Yu's head, then Qi Yu might have been overwhelmed by a burst of curses at this moment.

——You are so awesome, why can't you go to heaven!

The purpose of recruiting all these young talents nearby is to help him find his sister? !

Do you really think everyone is free and has nothing to do? ?

Qi Yu looked a little hot and embarrassed, and seemed to know that what he did was indeed a bit too much.

He is 35 years old this year, and there is a half-sister named Qi Fenghuang in his family. She is seventeen years old. She was taken away by her aunt when she was a child and has been wandering outside the house. He has worked hard to find her back nine years ago.Although Fenghuang is a girl, she has a stubborn personality. It has caused him headaches since he was a child. He didn't know what kind of stimulation he received before. He was forced to get married and said that he wanted a sister-in-law to love her. He kept evading and vaguely saying no. Then she got angry and said that if he didn't get married, she would go out and find a random disciple of the sect to marry, and then she really ran away from home like this.

Qi Yu mobilized people to search for her for more than half a month, but there was no trace of her. Although Fenghuang was young, he was smart and cunning. He knew how to cover up his whereabouts. If you have any news, please let us know.

"I'm really worried, and the people from the Devil's Cult recently... well." Qi Yu sighed with a gloomy expression, and then bowed his hands to everyone, "Qi Yu is here to thank everyone, if there is anything in the future that needs help , I will go through fire and water without hesitation."

Everyone was more or less dissatisfied at the beginning, especially the fierce scarred man who said to Zhou Yitong that "capable people live in it", only after listening to Qi Yu's words did he realize that it was just To help find my sister, my face changed a lot.

Due to the situation, and Qi Yu had explained so much, it was difficult to say anything if he understood that he was eager to find a sister, so they all agreed and said they would help to pay attention.

Qi Yu was overjoyed, and hurriedly ordered someone to show Qi Fenghuang's portrait for everyone to see.

The picture scroll unfolds slowly, the girl in light yellow dress is holding flowers and smiling under the peach blossom tree. But, the wide sleeves covered with light gauze slipped to reveal a string of very delicate colorful bead bracelets on her white wrists, she was an unforgettable beautiful girl at first sight.

This painting is full of emotion and scenery, lively and vivid, it doesn't seem like it was painted according to the description temporarily because someone was looking for someone, it is estimated that it was there before.Moreover, the picture scroll was taken out of a very delicate long brocade box, and it can be seen that the owner cherishes it very much.When everyone held it and looked at it, as long as their movements were a little rough, Qi Yu would be nervous for a while, as if he was afraid that someone would break it.

Shen Changge also took it over and looked at it seriously, then raised his eyebrows imperceptibly.

But... I don't know if it's because the artist didn't draw it well or if she is just like this. Shen Changge always feels that although this girl is smiling, there is a biting gloom in the corners of her brows and eyes.That dark and cold feeling seemed to come from her bones, even if she tried to hide it with a bright smile, Shen Changge could still see something was wrong.

But after seeing the painting, there were no abnormalities among the others. Shen Changge took a sip of tea calmly, wondering if he was being overly sensitive.

There is nothing wrong with a girl who is just older than Yuan Jin.

The dinner was over, and Shen Changge, who was joking with the people next to him, grabbed Zhou Yitong who was about to stand up, as if he had eyes behind his back.

"Don't go too far." Shen Changge leaned close to his ear and whispered something, then patted his arm again.

Zhou Yitong responded with a deep voice, then pushed his hand away and walked out, not far behind the scarred man.

Shen Changge's eyes were dark, watching him leave, pursing his lips and sighing silently.Just seeing his overly calm look just now, I knew there would be such an incident.

It happened that Qi Yu came over and invited him to discuss some things together, and Shen Changge followed, but Zhou Yitong was still thinking about him in his heart. His character was too uncontrollable, and Shen Changge was really afraid that he would cause trouble if he did too much.

There are many guest rooms in the other courtyard, Qi Yu has all the guests who come to stay overnight, but some people declined the kindness when they had a place to go, and left after eating.

The man with the scar was one of the people who left. He drank some wine at night, walked through the streets with his big knife staggeringly, humming a little song against the evening wind, and his mind was a little dazed. , but even so, the vigilance of a martial arts practitioner is still there, a gust of wind blows coldly, he suddenly jerks, his body stops, and he raises his somewhat drunken eyes to look forward.

Under the moonlight as bright as silver, a man stood sideways holding a sword in the middle of the road blocking his way. His short black hair was half tied up, and his red clothes, which were particularly dazzling at night, fluttered in the wind. His figure was tall and straight, The breath in his body was like a cold blade, standing there motionless like a sharp and threatening silhouette, he couldn't help but feel a sudden chill in his heart.

"It's you?" The man with the scar was half awake.

For so many years in the rivers and lakes, he has rarely seen a man with picturesque eyebrows and eyes like this man, so he recognized it just by looking at it from the side.

In fact, he was already shocked by the aura of the young man in red, which was completely different from that at the dinner table just now, but he still sneered with the strength of the wine, put down the big knife that was originally on his shoulder and pestered it to the ground, and raised it. The corners of the mouth tilted a little arrogantly, "What are you waiting here for?"

Zhou Yitong turned around, and those beautiful golden eyes gave him a cold look, "You just said that everyone will be convinced if they speak with their strength."

"So what?" The man answered in a rough voice, not understanding why he suddenly mentioned this.

Seeing that Zhou Yitong had already pulled out the Yunshuang sword decisively, the cold light shone on his pupils, which was so cold that he said, "I'm here to convince you."
