The young man's eyes flickered suddenly, and he looked at Zhao Yuanjing without speaking for a long time.

Zhao Yuanjing also looked at him, but did not speak first, as if he was waiting for the young man to tell a story.

The young man finally spoke, and said calmly: "That child... He was only four years old at the time. Suddenly, one day, he was thrown into a dry well, but he didn't die. I really don't know that he is a lucky man. , or bad luck. He was wounded and dying, lying at the bottom of the well and shouting. He was clearly an ignorant young master before, how could he have suffered such hardships. He felt pain all over his body, and he thought at that time that he might as well be dead Well, that way there is no need to suffer. But he is afraid of death, and his hands and feet feel cold when he thinks about it. So the child still has a glimmer of hope in his heart. He hopes that someone will save him, but it is a pity that no one can hear his voice , no one took care of him."

When the young man said this, he looked at the dry well with his eyes, and seemed to be lost in memory, and he didn't make a sound for a long time.

Zhao Yuanjing said, "And then?"

The young man was awakened by his voice, turned around and looked at him with a smile, and said, "What else? Then, he died in the dry well."

Zhao Yuanjing said, "Dead?"

The young man nodded and said, "Of course he died, maybe he turned into a ghost after death."

Zhao Yuanjing looked at him with a surprised expression.

The young man glanced into the mouth of the well again, then turned to leave.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Zhao Yuanjing followed him a step and said, "Mr. Xie..."

The sound of "crash" was the sound of the flap of the skirt.

Before Zhao Yuanjing finished speaking, he saw that the young man in front suddenly moved suddenly, turned around and grabbed him with one claw.

Zhao Yuanjing seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and immediately dodged sideways without being caught by that claw.

The young man's face changed and became a little ferocious, all the gentle expression disappeared, he stared at him firmly, and said: "Your Majesty, if I kill you here, your idiot guards will never find out of."

Zhao Yuanjing said: "I should have died many years ago."

The young man sneered, and said, "It turns out that Lord Jing is the kind of person who is not afraid of death. But you can rest assured, Lord Jing, I have many ways to make you survive or die."

Zhao Yuanjing laughed and said, "Who saved you?"

The young man's eyes flickered for a moment, he stared at Zhao Yuanjing, and suddenly laughed again, still sneering, and said, "The person you killed."

Zhao Yuanjing's body shook violently, and he immediately stepped forward and grabbed the young man's hand, saying, "Murong Yan saved you back then?"

The young man glanced at Zhao Yuanjing's hand, but he didn't seem to mind, and didn't shake off his hand.

The young man just said lightly: "What does it have to do with you?"

Zhao Yuanjing said, "Is Murong Yan still alive?"

The young man repeated again and said, "What does it have to do with you?"

"Is he still alive?!" Zhao Yuanjing's voice sounded a lot harder, and he repeated it.

The young man shook off Zhao Yuanjing's hand, left suddenly, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Zhao Yuanjing wanted to chase after him, but his martial arts were not as good as before. He really couldn't catch up. He managed to follow out of the desolate mansion, but soon there was no trace of the young man.

Zhao Yuanjing frowned and sighed heavily.

Zhao Yuanjing stood at the gate of the house for a long time, and finally turned around and walked inside the house, returning to the dry well.

The dry well was too deep, and it was dark inside, because it was too dark to see anything.

Zhao Yuanjing couldn't imagine who was so mad that he threw a four-year-old child into the dry well.Just like the young man said, the child was thrown into the dry well and he was still alive. I don't know if he was too lucky or too unlucky...

How much torture a poor child suffered under this well, and how desperate he was in those days and nights, I am afraid that no one knows, and no one can understand.

Zhao Yuanjing squatted down, touched the snake pattern totem on the wall of the dry well, and couldn't help frowning even deeper. What is the relationship between the snake pattern totem and that child?Zhao Yuanjing eagerly wanted to know if Murong Yan was dead, but he didn't have any clues.

Over there, Ni Yexin and Murong Changqing stayed in the big mansion of the Xie family. After all, there were quite a few ledgers, and the ledgers were considered relatively confidential things. It would not be particularly good to bring them all out of the Xie family.

The two simply stayed at Xie's house to check if there was any problem with the ledger.

The maid of Xie's family prepared dinner for them, which was very sumptuous, and Ni Yexin's face was full of red after eating.

The ledger was higher than a person, and it was not just a stack. Ni Yexin felt a little stuffy when he saw the ledger after he was full.

It was late at night now, but they only read a few ledgers, and there was nothing wrong with them, and they couldn't see anything.

Ni Yexin lay down on the table with a ledger, and said, "Hey, Hero Murong, what does this word read?"

Murong Changqing: "..."

Ni Yexin doesn't know some very uncommon traditional characters, after all, they are not commonly used in modern times, and I have never seen them before.

Murong Changqing rolled his eyes, did not go over, and continued to look down at the ledger in his hand.

Speaking of reading books, Murong Daxia is much more proficient than Ni Yexin.After all, although the Devil's Cult is well-known and frightening to hear, they still have to eat to make ends meet. There are many people in the Demon Cult who specialize in business, and the annual account books will fill up Murong Changqing's room, but Murong Changqing will not Read one by one, just read a few random ones and you're done.

Murong Changqing glanced at the ledger piled up next to him, and suddenly felt a headache, not knowing when to see it.

After reading it for a while, Ni Yexin felt that her eyelids were getting heavy, and she couldn't help but want to doze off a little. She just took a book and propped it in front of her, and planned to take a nap behind the book. Anyway, there was the hardworking Hero Murong.

As soon as Ni Yexin put the book in place, he heard a "pop", the book suddenly fell over and hit his face.

Ni Yexin was startled, and immediately sat up straight, and saw Murong Changqing raised an eyebrow at him.

Murong Chang said affectionately, "Don't sleep if you can't finish watching."

Ni Ye said aggrievedly: "But there are so many, you don't need to sleep after reading it."

"What you want to see, you deserve it." Murong Chang said affectionately.

Ni Yexin said: "How do I know, there are so many ledgers in such a small room."

The yard is used for stacking goods, and there are many goods in the room, some of which have been piled up there for many years, and some of which are constantly flowing. , What is the goods and who is the seller is recorded in the ledger, and the records are very clear.

It's just that Ni Ye doesn't know how to do business, and feels that he didn't find anything after reading it.

Seeing Murong Changqing looking down at the account book again, Ni Yexin ignored himself, so he quickly stood up and ran over, stood beside Murong Changqing, and said, "Hero Murong, look, it's pitch black outside, and there's a little There is no sound, it's just dark and windy at night."

"You want to kill and set fire?" Murong Chang said lightly.

Ni Yexin said: "Of course not, that's so vulgar, why don't you give me a kiss while no one is around?"

Murong Changqing: "..."

Murong Chang couldn't hold back his feelings, raised his hand and "slapped" the ledger in Ni Yexin's face.

Ni Yexin quickly caught the ledger thrown over, and said, "Hero Murong, are you shy?"

"You'd better go away." Murong Changqing said expressionlessly, otherwise he would lose control of his fist.

Ni Yexin said: "But shouldn't the young couple who are in love just now be like glue? Why are you so indifferent to me, Mr. Murong?"

Murong Changqing glanced at him, and his eyelids twitched twice. Today, Murong Changqing felt extremely regretful for what he did last night.

Ni Yexin had a smile on her face all day long.

Murong Changqing raised his hand to pick up an account book again, and said, "Work, don't talk nonsense."

Ni Yexin simply moved a chair over, sat down beside Murong Changqing, and looked at Murong Changqing with sad eyes while reading the account book.

Murong Changqing was expressionless, of course he found that Ni Yexin was always looking at him, but Murong Changqing just pretended not to notice.

One day today, Ni Yexin told Murong Changqing to kiss him at least ten times, and Murong Changqing felt his head hurt, but fortunately they were all in places where no one was around.

Murong ignored him for a long time, and Ni Yexin scratched his heart with all kinds of claws, but after a long time, Ni Yexin also fell asleep.After all, they made a fuss all night yesterday and barely slept for a long time. Now that it was late at night again, they were naturally a little sleepy.

Ni Yexin fell asleep, and the hand holding the book loosened, and a thick account book slipped from his hand, almost falling to the ground.

Murong Chang had a quick eye and quick hands, he copied the account book in one go, and then gently placed it on the table.

Murong Changqing stretched out his hand and rubbed his temples, thinking that he should have let Ni Yexin go to sleep long ago, so that Ni Yexin would be quieter and not always yelling in his ear to let him kiss him.

To be honest, Murong Changqing has never been so intimate with others before. When Ni Yexin said something like that, Murong Changqing didn't know how to react except for his expressionless face.

Murong Changqing didn't bother him at all, and continued to read the account book by himself.

After just watching for a while, Murong Changqing had a headache again, and Ni Yexin could cause trouble even if she fell asleep.

Ni Yexin fell asleep sitting up, sitting next to Murong Changqing.After he fell asleep, he started to slip down, little by little, and he was about to slip out of the chair...

Murong Changqing had no choice but to put down the ledger, then stood up and reached out to hug Ni Yexin who had been slipping down, and hugged him gently.

Murong Chang turned around and took a look. There was no bed in this room. Apart from the desk, there was a long desk, a chair and a bookcase. There was no place to rest.

Murong searched around affectionately, and finally carried Ni Yexin to the side of the table, and then put him on the table again.

Ni Yexin didn't know that she slept on the table again, and she slept soundly while lying on the table.

The weather is cold, and it is absolutely impossible to lie on the ground to sleep. It is estimated that my back will be sore tomorrow morning.

Murong Changqing took off his outer shirt and put it on Ni Yexin's body, then pulled a chair over and sat beside him to read the account book, lest Ni Yexin fall off after turning over in the middle of sleep.

The height of this table should be a little higher than last time. Murong Chang felt that if Ni Ye's heart hit the ground first, he might be bleeding.

Ni Yexin fell asleep, and Murong Changqing sat beside him and continued to read the account book.

But it might be because the weather was really cold, Ni Yexin didn't sleep very well, he curled up into a ball, tightly grabbed Murong Changqing's coat, and then wanted to turn over.

When Murong Changqing saw that Ni Ye was about to turn over, he immediately raised his hand to block him, and blocked him back.But Ni Ye was restless and turned to the other side, so Murong Changqing had no choice but to arrest him again.

The veins on Murong Changqing's forehead were about to pop out, and in the end there was nothing he could do. Looking at the sky, it was really too late, even if he stayed up all night, he probably wouldn't be able to finish reading these ledgers.

Only then did Murong Changqing pick up Ni Yexin and lead him out of the room, planning to go back to the inn first.

There was silence in the small town, the streets were dark, and there was no one there.Murong Changqing came out of Xie's house with Ni Yexin in his arms, and went straight to the inn.

It was so late, even the shopkeeper had gone back to his room to rest, after all, there were only a few rooms in the inn, so there was nothing to do at night.

Murong Changqing hugged Ni Yexin and went upstairs, only to meet an acquaintance on the second floor.

Zhao Yuanjing also just came back, he stayed in the Xie family's deserted house for a long time, and came back only seeing it was too late.

The conditions of the yamen were too poor and there were no spare rooms, so Zhao Yuanjing naturally wanted to stay at the inn, which was the only inn in the town.

As soon as Zhao Yuanjing went upstairs, he heard footsteps behind him. Looking back, it turned out to be Murong Changqing.Then take a closer look, there is another person in Murong Changqing's arms, it is Ni Yexin, Ni Yexin fell asleep, and slept soundly.

Murong Chang looked at him affectionately, with a blank expression on his face, and then carried Ni Yexin to the next room.

Zhao Yuanjing seemed to want to talk, but he didn't say anything in the end, watching Murong Changqing take Ni Yexin away.

After Murong Changqing hugged Ni Yexin back, Hero Murong suddenly thought of an important problem, that is, Ni Yexin couldn't get into his bed if he hadn't bathed.

This point is too important, who told Hero Murong to have a cleanliness?

So Murong Chang hugged Ni Yexin in his arms, struggled for a long time, finally put Ni Yexin on the table, went out to boil some hot water, and came back with the bath water.

When he came back, Ni Yexin was still obediently lying on the table and did not fall off. It seemed that Murong Changqing came back in time.

Murong Changqing put the bathtub in the room, then looked at Ni Yexin silently for a long time, walked over and pushed him, and said, "Get up and take a bath."

Ni Yexin is the only one who can let Master Murong serve and bathe.

However, Ni Yexin was completely out of shape, he was sleeping soundly, and suddenly someone pushed him up to take a bath, it was simply a nightmare.

Ni Yexin snorted and said, "Don't wash..."

Murong Chang said affectionately: "Get up, if you don't wash, you will sleep on the table."

Ni Yexin presumably fell asleep again, and didn't hear it at all.

Murong Chang took a look, the veins on the back of his hand were protruding, then picked up Ni Yexin and put it directly in the bathtub.

The water in the tub was very warm, it could be said to be very hot. Ni Yexin was thrown into it with his clothes on, and water splashed all over his face. He was so scared that he woke up immediately, definitely a startled one.

Ni Yexin heard a "hum" in his head, coughed and shouted: "Help, help!"

Such a loud sound at night will definitely wake up the entire inn.Murong Chang reached out his hand to cover his mouth helplessly, and said, "Why are you calling for help in the shower!"

Ni Yexin regained his composure and said, "Wash... take a bath?"

He was already drowsy, looking down at himself who was dripping wet, the clothes on his body were all wet, sticking wet to his skin, making him extremely uncomfortable.

Ni Yexin tugged at her collar and said, "Hero, why don't you take off your clothes in the shower?"

Murong Changqing ignored him, walked away silently, and said: "Hurry up and wash, I will wash after you finish washing."

Ni Yexin lay on the edge of the bathtub and said, "Then why don't we take a bath together."

Murong Chang looked back at him affectionately, and gave a low laugh with unknown meaning.

Ni Yexin: "..."

I always feel that Murong Daxia's laugh is a bit sarcastic, as if he dislikes himself for not being clean enough.

Ni Yexin complained: "Hero, you really are not romantic at all."

"What?" Murong asked affectionately.

Ni Yexin giggled and didn't answer him, but he cooperated very quickly and finished the washing very quickly. He put on his clothes and got under the bed, saying: "Hero, you should wash it quickly."

Murong Changqing naturally needs to wash, otherwise he won't be able to sleep at all.

Murong Changqing personally changed the hot water for himself. When he came back, he saw Ni Yexin closed his eyes and looked like he was about to fall asleep. Murong Changqing felt that he was about to lose his temper.

After Murong Changqing made hot water, he took off his clothes and got into the bathtub.

The water temperature was very suitable and very comfortable, which made the slightly tired Murong Changqing heave a sigh of relief and closed his eyes.

"Squeak" a soft sound.

Murong Changqing immediately opened his eyes, and saw that Ni Yexin on the bed also opened his eyes, and was about to climb out of bed secretly.

Murong Chang frowned affectionately and said, "Why don't you sleep?"

Ni Yexin said: "Sleep, of course I want to sleep, but I want to wait for you to sleep together."

Murong Chang looked sideways at him affectionately, and said, "When you were snoring just now, why didn't you want to wait for me to sleep with you?"

Ni Yexin smiled, and had already climbed off the bed, ran over barefoot, and then lay on the outside of the tub.

Murong Chang frowned affectionately and said, "What are you doing?"

Ni Yexin stared wide-eyed, staring at Murong Changqing who was sitting in the bathtub, almost drooling, wiped his mouth with the sleeve of his clean underwear, then peeked into the water with his head. Said in a sour tone: "There is no one much older than me."
