Lin Junsheng.

If opening the gate of the small courtyard is like opening the door of time and space to the past, then the name is like coordinates.

When it clearly appeared in Sheng Xun's mind, Sheng Xun let go of the hand holding the courtyard door.

"Hey……"

The receptionist wanted to ask Sheng Xun to go inside, but this person then remembered that it was he himself who said that as long as he didn't touch the arrangement, Sheng Xun could walk around here casually.

Sheng Xun's state at the moment is very delicate, his spirit and body seem to be temporarily divided into two, and a lot of screen information is rushing towards him like a tide.

But on the surface, he was as normal in the eyes of others, and he couldn't see anything unusual.

The receptionist couldn't see through the turbulent waves under Sheng Xun's calm appearance, so he stopped his steps to keep up, and waited by the half-open door of the small courtyard, ready to wait for Sheng Xun to watch a round first, and then go to discuss the situation with him.

Sheng Xun has no one to follow and trouble him for the time being.

He didn't need any guidance, and he walked to the far right side of the long row house in the courtyard, and stopped at the window facing the wall on the side of the house.

The window was still dark in color, and the surface was mottled by the years. Sheng Xun stood outside the window, staring at the dark interior due to the backlight, and suddenly glanced at the courtyard wall behind him.

His pocket was empty, and he handed the jade tablet carrying Xiaoqiu to Zou He before entering the Eight Diagrams Gallery.

But it was strange, his fingertips seemed to be burning with residual heat, and the burning sensation extended from the fingertips along the meridians, penetrated into the blood vessels, and finally gathered in the heart along the blood circulation.

Sheng Xun felt his chest burning.

The feeling of "I am not me" in the hallway is gradually disappearing, and more memories are coming.

The feeling of recalling a lot of memory made Sheng Xun couldn't help stretching out his hand to support the window sill in front of him.

And at this moment, the past and the present him seem to overlap.

Sheng Xun remembered more.

He is Lin Junsheng.

All the pictures that were just sporadic flashes before are still connected together, and they become a complete line, running through his two lives from Lin Junsheng to Sheng Xun.

Sheng Xun was born in a prosperous and stable era.

And Lin Junsheng was born at the end of the glitz and the beginning of the turmoil.

The name "Junsheng" actually has two meanings. Its two characters have to be separated and interpreted, which means "a gentleman is upright and the country is strong and prosperous".

The elders entrusted him with the expectations of his family and country.

It's a pity that Lin Junsheng was still too young when he met Chi Muqing. He was just seven years old, so he couldn't see the future that his elders had foreseen, and he couldn't realize the hidden worries hanging over the hearts of adults.

At the age of seven, he still touches fish and climbs trees to do everything, at the age of a little monkey.

He is the only son of the Lin family. He is an extroverted young master. He lives in a rich and worry-free environment. The biggest difficulty in daily life is just homework and school exams.

The elders are training him in a specific direction, and he has learned everything he has learned, but he still can't see the deep meaning behind all the learning.

In the midsummer of that year, the whole city had just come out of the rainy season, and it was a hot day.

Lin Junsheng went to Chi's house with his elders as a guest. He had heard that Chi's house was a place where talented people and strangers were born. The elders also asked him to do a lot of homework before leaving.

But after actually going to Chi's house, the boy immediately found that although he was being taken by his elders, he was actually just a foil.

Adults like to talk behind closed doors, behind which is a world that children are not allowed to enter.

He was sent to play elsewhere.

The Youchi family really treated Young Master Lin as an ignorant child, and frightened the children with exaggerated words like "there is a man-eating monster deep in the corridor". , to prevent the boy from running around.

That bluster backfired.

On the contrary, Lin Junsheng's curiosity was aroused.

And because he is young and small, he has good mobility.

In the words of his family, he is "like a monkey on a tree, like a rabbit on the ground, and like a silver shuttle in the water".

—Anyway, in short, he slipped without hindrance.

He quietly touched the small courtyard that was said to have a monster in the afternoon when no one knew about it.

There were no man-eating monsters there at all, only a pale young man who was caught by the "hand" condensed by the other party's magical power when he climbed over the wall.

The first impression left on the boy by that first meeting was the warm sun in the afternoon, the swaying tree shadows outside the courtyard wall, the noisy chirping of summer insects... and the coolness of the "hand" that suddenly hit the back collar .

The scorching heat seemed to be unable to get close to that person, and his small courtyard was quite a bit cooler than the outside.

The place he was in was always gloomy, and the window that opened on the side of the room gave off a faint cold air.

A hand that appears out of thin air should be terrifying, and a person who is surrounded by coldness all year round should not be attracted or approached.

But that day, the little boy recklessly broke into someone's yard, and he didn't have any "should" or "should not" in other people's minds.

"Brother, do you have a rag or a handkerchief here?" Lin Junsheng, who had wiped the dust off the window sill, soon realized that he had done a "good thing". He looked down and saw that both of his hands that climbed over the wall were also dirty. , He said to the person in the window, "Lend me if you have something, I'll clean the window sill for you, and let me wipe your hands by the way, okay?"

There were many people who made demands on the man in the window confidently, and there were many people whose faces changed drastically after seeing his strength, and there were also many people who hurriedly retreated.

However, seeing his strength, not only did he not avoid it, but he would talk to him in a discussion tone, and he would put what he wanted to do for him in the first place, and the little guy outside the window was the first one.

The people in the window looked at Lin Junsheng silently for a while.

He said nothing and disappeared behind the window.

Lin Junsheng waited for a while.

Soon, the figure of that person appeared in front of the window again, and brought a clean cloth towel to the boy.

"Thank you brother." Lin Junsheng said after receiving the cloth towel.

He obeyed his words, first helping someone wipe the dusty window sill carefully, and then he wiped his own hands.

During that time, the people in the window didn't speak, didn't leave, they just kept watching.

It seems that the other party has never seen it before in his life, and he must look carefully to see clearly.

It wasn't until dusk fell and the sky was covered with red clouds that the chi family servants who had been looking for the young master of the Lin family for a long time finally realized that the boy was actually in the yard deep in the corridor.

Lin Junsheng was yelled and taken away, and he also received a lot of inquiries and comfort.

Children may not think as complexly as adults, and their thinking is not as deep as their elders.

But Lin Junsheng is very sensitive to the emotions of others, and he can sense the subtleties and precautions when others talk about the person in Xiaoyuan.

"Do you know where you ran to?" The elder who took Lin Junsheng out said so on their way home.

"Exaggerated words to deceive children." Lin Junsheng answered without thinking.

Then the head was immediately flicked by the elders.

"I was taken aback by your running there!" The elder said angrily, "You are also lucky. It is said that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers. I think you are a little bastard who dares to recruit even yin-born children."

Lin Junsheng put down his hand rubbing his forehead, he was attracted by the new words he had never heard before.

"What is a yin child?" the boy asked. "What is that?"

Lin Junsheng even frowned subconsciously.

It was a word he had never heard before.

But just based on the tone and words of the elder when he said it, he already had an intuition that it was not a good word.

In fact it is not.

The so-called "Yin gives birth to a child", it is not enough that the five elements and eight characters are all Yin, and they are born with a Yin body.

"The Chi family, although they have kung fu, their thoughts were really too crooked back then."

The elder sighed in a low voice.

He didn't want to explain too much to the young child, but he couldn't hold back Lin Junsheng, who was so curious that he dared to dig into other people's yards, so in the end, the elder told a story in as simple and understandable a sentence as possible .

He told Lin Junsheng that many years ago, the Chi family, as a family with outstanding mystic skills, had planned a project with the goal of cultivating the most talented people in the family, who were born with no shortcomings and were rooted in all aspects. The child with the best bone quality.

They hoped that this child would become a mysterious genius who is rare in a hundred years and lead the whole family to the top. It would be best if the Chi family could be firmly at the top of the mystery industry.

"But living people are not the little clay figurines you like. You can make them into whatever you like." The elder said, "They have thought of many tricks, and the ancient and secret medicines involved are countless...the result , Things will be reversed at the extreme, and the secret method will be reversed."

The effect of backlash first appeared on the woman who gave birth to a child, and the mother died due to the backlash of the secret method.

But strangely, the mother had been out of breath for three days, yet her distended abdomen was still slightly heaving.

The Chi family observed carefully, and finally had to believe the reality-the fetus was still alive after the mother died.

This is no miracle at all.

In the eyes of anyone who is a little knowledgeable, it is clear that there is something wrong with this fetus.

The Chi family made a decisive decision immediately.

They gave up the child who had pinned their hopes on the family's great fortune, and sealed it into the ground overnight with formations.

"...But isn't this murder?" Lin Junsheng couldn't help but ask.

The elder touched his head, did not comment on the Chi family's actions in this matter, only sighed again, and then continued: "But this person lives in the backyard of the Chi family now, and he has grown to such a big age , you saw him with your own eyes, didn't you?"

"Yes." Lin Junsheng thought of the person he had met, and he answered.

The elder said: "On the night when the coffin was sealed and buried in the ground, they all felt that the fetus was still small. Even if they were born heretics, they were too young to be successful. They should be fine with a pressure formation."

However, in the unguarded and supervised back mountain, the faint sound of digging and digging sounded all night.

In the early morning of the next day, the clansman who was in charge of that day's duty went to open the door of the outer courtyard for morning cleaning. He unplugged the bolt sleepily and pushed open the thick wooden door—then the next second he was so startled that his eyes were tearing apart, and the broom in his hand With a "snap" he dropped his hand.

Outside the gate of the Chi family's outer courtyard, there was a small coffin with wet mud hanging around it.

A little child was lying on top of the coffin.

The child had his eyes closed, and he was different from other children when he was born, not like a wrinkled red-skinned monkey when he was born like other newborns.

He was very white, lying there in a little ball, with black hair on the top of his head.

The first person who spotted him was so frightened that he took a step back and fell on the threshold. He seemed to hear the movement and slowly opened his eyes.

The little baby didn't cry or make noise, just quietly staring at the person at the door with extremely black eyes.

……

"What happened later?" Lin Junsheng asked again, fascinated by the sound.

When the elder said this, he was silent for a while, and seemed to have a lot of emotion.

Then he continued to tell Lin Junsheng: "Later, they gathered the whole family for a calculation, and found that no matter how they calculated, this child was destined to stay and must grow up in Chi's family."

This is the cause that the Chi family planted by themselves, and it is also the fruit they must reap.

All mystics understand the cycle of cause and effect best.

Therefore, the little child was left behind, and his residence was carefully selected in the deepest place away from other people, and the entire backyard was reorganized so that a gossip corridor occupied the entire backyard.

Get rid of the disaster they personally recruited.

To ward off the evil they brewed themselves.

At that time, the group leader of that generation also issued a clan order, requiring the clan members to consciously avoid that small courtyard and minimize unnecessary communication with that child. "Yin begets" something that shouldn't be had.

"But he didn't harm anyone, and he didn't want to become like that." Lin Junsheng felt angry, he had just met that person, and he had already started to defend him subconsciously.

The elders heard the boy's sincerely protective tone, recovered from their own thoughts, looked down at him, and laughed: "It's the first time you saw him, how do you know he never harmed anyone?"

"If he was a person who wanted to harm others, it would have been nice to see me fall off the courtyard wall at that time. There was no need to reach out to grab me." Lin Junsheng said, he had reasons, "If he had evil in his heart, I would Even if he climbed over the wall and soiled his window sill, and then asked him for a cloth to wipe his hands, he shouldn't bother me, let alone lend me a hand towel, he should directly beat me out fiercely."

Saying this, I remembered that I was in a hurry when I was taken away from the small courtyard, and there seemed to be something belonging to that person on my body.

The little boy dug in his pocket twice, and sure enough he found the cloth towel that he forgot to return.

"Look," Lin Junsheng held up this evidence to the elders, "This is something my brother lent me. I will wash it after I get home. You will bring me back when you come next time. I will return it."

The stunned elder: "..."

I didn't expect that the little guy ran to meet Yin Shengzi, but he even took other people's things with him... and even took most of the way!

"You just—"

Leaning back in front of the cloth towel that was about to slap his face, the elder's face turned green because he wanted to scold but couldn't speak.

It was finally determined that it was indeed an ordinary cloth towel, not something evil, and the elders confiscated it on purpose, but the boy was already prepared, using the movements taught by the adults to put the cloth towel into his pocket in the blink of an eye, and put it away again .

"No, no, you can't take it away." Lin Junsheng said sternly, "I'm going to return it to my brother in person. If you take it away, you won't know where to go."

The elder made an empty hand, and was so blocked that he almost wanted to roll his eyes unsteadily.

It was only then that he noticed that the boy kept calling the Chi family's words.

"You call him 'brother'?" the elder wondered.

"Do you know that the growth pattern of Yinshengzi is different from that of ordinary people. When you are three or five years old, does he look like a one-year-old change at most?" The elder said inexplicably, "That person looks ten or twenty years old this year. , you use the math you learned from the foreign teacher, how old is this person at least? I reckon I have to call him uncle."

The last sentence was exaggerated by the elder in order to enhance the effect. After he finished speaking, he looked at Lin Junsheng, hoping to see a shocked or dumbfounded expression on the boy's face.

However, Lin Junsheng only let out a slight "ah", and his surprise at the real age of his "brother" was only fleeting.

"Is that how you react?" The elder himself was confused.

Lin Junsheng replied: "A brother who looks like a brother is a brother. The last time I went out with my third uncle, he also taught me that no matter how old a woman is, as long as she looks like a sister, she must be called a sister. Why is it different for men?"

elder:"……"

Tall men really can't speak harsh words to their children. The "third uncle" in Lin Junsheng's words is simply a punching bag for him.

The man lifted the curtain and shouted to the driver in front: "Speed ​​up, go back early!"

"Yes!" The driver responded immediately, and then asked speculatively, "Did you remember something urgent? I can also take you to the place first, and then take the young master home."

"Urgent, very anxious." The man said, "There is no need to divide the road. I want to go home. I am in a hurry to go home and beat my brother!"

driver:"……"

Lin Junsheng accidentally beat up his uncle, but the little boy's mind is not on his own affairs for the time being.

He was still thinking about that story, about that person's experience.

Then he remembered—he didn't know the man's name yet.

"Does he have a name?" Lin Junsheng asked the elder.

"There must be." The elder said, "It's called—"

"Don't tell me yet." The boy interrupted hastily, and then he was a little sorry for his rashness, and smiled at the elder.

"I want to ask myself next time," he said. "I want to hear my brother tell me his name himself."

Because a name is an endorsement.

If it is a person who hasn't gotten along well with others for a long time, if he can be seriously asked for his name, or more rigorously - there is someone who can let him give his name on his own initiative, he should be happy too.

Lin Junsheng's impression of Chi Muqing started from curiosity. At this time, his mind was still very simple, and he was just fighting for the other party, and he had an intuition that he was not a villain.

There is also a bit of wanting to make the other person feel happy.
