The summer in the south of the Yangtze River is much more lively than that in the north of the Yangtze River, but it is very hot and humid. In addition, the green plants, pink peaches, and flying flowers on the green hills are much more lively than those in the north of the Yangtze River, regardless of the color or climate.

Zheng Tingxue arrived in Luyi, Jiangnan early in the morning.He only wore a snow-white unlined garment, his long hair was tied into a ponytail, and a white plum was hung around his waist, and he walked lightly into the city.Bailong had been waiting in the city for a long time, when he saw him, he didn't say much, he went up to him and explained the situation: "Master and young master are at home."

Zheng Tingxue responded.

"I caught one." Bai Long said in a low voice, "I just asked them to come under the order of Nie Tagu, and the target was the young master. As for how many people came and who they were, he refused to say. Brother They used some methods to prevent him from committing suicide."

"Understood." Zheng Tingxue directly copied the alley, with a calm voice, "Go home first."

Three years ago, the Zheng family split into two halves, the majority moved to Luyi in the south of the Yangtze River with Mr. Zheng, and the small half stayed in Qinggang in the north of the Yangtze River.The Zheng family said to the public that it was for Mr. Zheng to recuperate from his illness, but everyone in the know knew that the Zheng family was forced to do nothing by the Nie family.Since Zhang Xiaofeng's death, Zheng Muzhou was ill in bed, most of the Zheng family's force was cut off, facing the Nie family, which is strong and far superior in numbers, it still suffers a bit after all.

At that time, no one noticed Zheng Tingxue.Zheng Tingxue was not famous when he was young, he kept a low profile, never fought against anyone, let alone killed anyone.

His insignificant image in front of everyone was completely overturned on a deep rainy night three years ago.

It was an ordinary night. A night stall vendor in Qinggang City was cleaning up his stall. It was raining loudly at night. He bent down to clean up his things, when he suddenly heard a "snap" sound, which was the door hanging from the shop door behind the stall. The glazed lamp was blown to the ground by the wind, half of the glazed cover was shattered, the fragments were scattered on the ground, and the wick was barely burning in the rain.

"What the hell weather." The peddler hastily put down the things in his hand, and trotted to pick up the lamp that had rolled into the middle of the road. He carefully held the broken lampshade to protect the wick inside. As soon as he turned around, he suddenly saw two A person came from a distance.

The figure of the man was young, his white clothes were soaked by the rain, the thunder rumbled above his head, and the lightning cut the white light in the night sky, combined with the faint glazed light, his cold outline was illuminated, and his face was hideous and hideous. terrible blood.

The peddler yelled in horror, the man stopped in his tracks and looked sideways.

It was Zheng Tingxue who was 17 years old at the time.

The stains on Zheng Tingxue's face flowed down mixed with the rain, and there were endless bloodstains under his feet.Those dark and clear eyes were as calm and unwavering as ever, flashing a cold light in the dark night.Seeing the peddler sitting on the ground in fright, he put the white plum in his hand into the scabbard and bowed slightly, "Uncle Yu, I scared you."

"Yes, it's Tingxue." The peddler was still in shock, and he was still trembling as he spoke, "This, this, this, why is there blood all over his face..."

Zheng Tingxue answered him lightly: "It's nothing, it's not my blood."

After speaking, he turned his head and disappeared into the boundless night and heavy rain.

Two days later, a hunter found several dead bodies in the mountain, and immediately went down the mountain to report to the official.The government sent people into the mountain to investigate, and found a total of [-] corpses.Fourteen of them were murderers who were offered a huge reward by the government, and they had countless lives in their hands.

They are all from the Nie family.Among them, there are people with surnames who are notorious in the Jianghu. Because of their insidious martial arts and ruthless attacks, the Jianghu people do not want to provoke them, and the government has a headache.

These people all died overnight.

Since then, Zheng Tingxue has become famous all over the world.People still talk about how Zheng Tingxue, who was only 17 years old, killed one hundred and five masters of the Nie family in the deep mountains on a rainy night. will not change.There were rumors that it was suspected that Zheng Tingxue was the one who killed those people, but this kind of doubt gradually disappeared as people continued to find Zheng Tingxue for discussion.

After the Zheng family moved to the south of the Yangtze River, they were separated from the Nie family by a wide river, and also separated by Zheng Tingxue—Zheng Tingxue blocked the road from outside the pass to Jiangnan, stopping all the ghosts and monsters.

From then on, there is no longer Baimei Patriarch in the Jianghu, only the little Baimei who can be worth one hundred.

The Zheng family settled in Luyi in the south of the Yangtze River, near the mountains and rivers.There are luxuriant evergreen trees planted around the yard, and there are many flowers and plants in the yard.Although the yard is small, it is well maintained.

Zheng Tingxue walked into the courtyard gate, he didn't care about the scenery in the south of the Yangtze River, and went straight to his father's room.He stopped suddenly in the middle of the walk, and looked sideways at Bailong: "Where is the song?"

Bai Long was stunned for a moment, showing a rare expression of uncertainty: "Before I left, I was playing with Xuanwu at home."

Zheng Tingxue looked at him, and Bailong immediately said, "Let's go find him."

After finishing talking, I left in a hurry.

Zheng Tingxue walked into her father's room.The lighting in the room is very good, and there are fresh potted plants on the table and on the window sill, but the places where the sun does not shine are dark and oppressive.Zheng Tingxue came to the bed and saw Zheng Muzhou sleeping on the bed.His father was much older, with wrinkles all over his face, and his figure shrank with age.He was sleeping on the bed, covered with a thick quilt in the hot weather, and he looked uneasy in his dreams.

Zheng Tingxue reached out to feel his pulse.Cold and vain, but still stable, with no signs of poisoning or serious illness.With this light touch, Zheng Muzhou woke up.He opened his eyes and saw his son whom he hadn't seen for three years, his expression didn't fluctuate, he just coughed and said, "Why did you come to Jiangnan?"

"Come and see." Zheng Tingxue said.

"It's nothing to look at, it's just a dying old bone." Zheng Muzhou closed his eyes again, "Go and see your brother."

Both father and son are not talkative, even if they haven't seen each other for three years, there are no touching scenes of father and son's deep love.Zheng Tingxue didn't say much, she just tied up the bed curtain a little, then turned and left.

He sat in front of the hall and waited for a quarter of an hour, until there was a loud crackling sound outside the courtyard.

"Brother, brother—" the child's voice roared and rushed all the way in from outside the courtyard wall, and a swift figure rushed up the steps, "Brother!"

Zheng Liaoge, sweating profusely, ran up to Zheng Tingxue, threw himself on his lap and hugged his feet indistinctly, "Brother came to see me!"

Zheng Tingxue looked at his six-year-old brother with a blank expression on his lap like a puppy, and raised his eyes to see Bailong and Xuanwu who were chasing him standing at the door, daring not to come in, Xuanwu was still holding a The roots ate two candied haws.

Seeing Zheng Tingxue looking at the things in his hand, Xuanwu subconsciously hid behind his back, and called out respectfully, "Master."

"Yeah." Zheng Tingxue said softly, "Get punished yourself."

Both of them didn't dare to say a word, they turned around and slipped away quickly.

"Why did you come to see me?" Zheng Liaoge grabbed his brother's clothes and struggled to climb up, "Hold me, hug me."

Zheng Tingxue didn't move, just watched him wrinkle his clothes, "Zheng Liaoge, should I let you stay at home?"

"I'm bored at home, I don't want to stay." Zheng Liaoge looked at him bitterly, "With Xuanwu by my side, what are you afraid of?"

He opened his bright eyes and looked at Zheng Tingxue with joy, "Brother, you said in advance that you were coming, and I'll buy you steamed buns, steamed rice sausage, red bean rice, and duck blood vermicelli soup. Aunt Lu always puts a lot of duck blood for me, but it’s tender, and her fans are also fresh one by one... oh, oh, what are you doing, bro..."

Zheng Tingxue didn't listen to what he was saying, she just grabbed his collar and stood up and walked out.Zheng Liaoge was carried by him with one hand, his arms and legs fluttered in the air, "Shame on you, bro, it's a shame to carry it like this."

Zheng Tingxue carried him all the way back to the bedroom, threw his brother inside, and said by the way: "If you are disobedient, you will be locked up for a day."

Zheng Laoge was stunned.He scrambled to get up, but Zheng Tingxue closed the door and locked it first.Zheng Liaoge beat on the door in the room and howled: "Brother, you are too unfeeling, we haven't seen each other for so many years——You don't miss me, brother, I miss you——"

Zheng Tingxue called two people to stand guard in front of the door, and left on her own.

There is a tea shop run by the Zheng family within a few miles of the Zheng family.When Zheng Tingxue arrived at the tea shop, the people in front of the shop saw Zheng Tingxue and didn't speak, just nodded silently to him. Zheng Tingxue walked into the backyard, found a small door, pushed the door in, and walked into the narrow room. Go down small steps.

When the steps went down to the end, there was only one person standing below with a lantern, who seemed to be waiting for Zheng Tingxue.Zheng Tingxue kept walking, and the man followed him with a lantern, and said in a low voice, "I woke up."

Zheng Tingxue walked to a cage, the man unlocked the door, and the two went in together.

There was a blood man hanging in the prison.The man had disheveled hair, torn clothes, and an unpleasant smell from his body.Zheng Tingxue was dressed in clean white clothes, but she didn't mind leaning over to look at the man's face.However, the man's face was covered with blood, so Zheng Tingxue said, "Clean it up."

He brought a bucket of cold water and splashed it on the man.He only heard a roar of pain, but he still had the strength to struggle.

Zheng Tingxue raised his chin and looked at his face.The man looked at Zheng Tingxue in a drowsy manner, and a hoarse voice rolled out of his throat: "Zheng... Ting... Xue..."

After a while, Zheng Tingxue let go of his hands and said calmly, "People from Patriarch Nie's family."

As soon as these words came out, everyone including the blood man was startled.Zheng Tingxue showed no expression, and continued: "Without human skin, you are in your early twenties, and of the same generation as me. You are Nie Tagu's son, or the son of one of his two brothers."

The bloody man stared at Zheng Tingxue, unable to say a word for a while.No one would have imagined that Zheng Tingxue would be able to directly give such detailed identity information just by looking at her face.You must know that the people of the collateral line of the Nie family fell into their hands, and the direct descendants of the Nie family fell into their hands, which has a very different meaning.

Zheng Tingxue didn't even look at the other person's expression of wanting to eat people, and moved her gaze down, stopping at the bottom of his heart.

"You don't have a scar." Zheng Tingxue stared at the position of his heart, and said in a low voice, "Why you don't have one, but he does."

The author has something to say: One of the mysteries of the Zheng family in the legends of the rivers and lakes: the eldest and the third act coquettishly, cute and playful, and the second child has not changed his iceberg face for thousands of years.Is it the demise of human nature, or a genetic mutation...
