Lantern: Reflection of the Peach Blossoms

Midsummer afternoon, Jin Mao Tower.

The red Ferrari raced across the street at lightning speed, and then made a beautiful drift, and stopped firmly at the gate amidst the squealing sound of the tires.Then a young man in jeans and a baseball cap got out of the car, turned the car key with his fingers boredly, and stepped into the revolving door with long legs under the curious or envious eyes of passers-by.

This commercial building built in the bustling area of ​​the city center is resplendent and magnificent. As soon as you enter the lobby, the air conditioner rushes in like you don't need money.The young man stood in front of the card swiping security door, touched his pocket, touched the goosebumps on his arm, turned his head and asked the front desk lady: "Beauty, I forgot to bring my card, come here and swipe it!"

The lady at the front desk obviously just arrived, she said in a daze, "I'm sorry sir, please register as a visitor first, who are you looking for?"

The young man took off his sunglasses halfway, and glanced at her with a half-smile.

He is quite tall, must have exceeded 1.8 meters, and is very handsome. Although he doesn't show his whole face, his half-raised eyebrows and deep eyes are enough to make people's heart beat.

The lady at the front desk couldn't help but turn a little red, and before she had time to say anything, he turned around and took out his mobile phone: "...Hello, brother? I came to look for you, and I didn't bring my card. I asked the little girl at the front desk to swipe it for me. one time!"

After speaking, he didn't wait for the person on the other side to answer, he hung up the phone and lit a cigarette.

"Yes—sorry sir, no smoking in the lobby—"

The young man said casually: "Just two or three bites, don't worry, beauty."

"But, but..."

At this moment, the elevator dinged and opened slowly, and a man in a black suit came out.

The lady turned her head to look, and her face paled immediately: "Boss, boss!"

Although he was called "Boss", Chu He was actually very young, he looked only in his early thirties.He is lean and thin with a well-trained body, wearing a well-tailored black suit and white shirt. His face is not as sharp and handsome as his younger brother, but paler and plainer. When he is not talking, he looks more low-key. The helm of a well-known group on the wealth list.

He swiped his card, walked out of the glass security door, and stood in front of his brother.

The two brothers looked at each other for a moment, Chuhe reached out to take the cigarette from his younger brother's mouth, and handed it to the front desk lady.

"Smoking is not allowed in the hall." He said calmly, and then told the front desk lady: "His name is Zhang Shun, he is my younger brother. Let him in from now on."

Contrary to his ordinary appearance, his voice is pleasant, deep and hoarse but very steady, with a hint of calmness.The front desk lady was so nervous that she even forgot to blush, quickly took the cigarette and bowed again and again: "Yes, boss! I'm sorry, I remembered!"

Chuhe nodded to her, turned and walked towards the elevator.

Zhang Shun also followed, and waved to the lady before leaving: "I'm sorry, beauty! I'll treat you to tea later!"

The lady at the front desk staggered, hurriedly looked around to see if there was no one around, and immediately ran to the duty room, hurriedly pushing the colleague who was taking a nap in the back: "Sister Wang! The boss of our company has a younger brother? Did you know?"

The colleague looked up with sleepy eyes: "Oh, Mr. Zhang, he is here again? Don't forget to swipe his card..."

The young lady couldn't hold back the excitement in her heart: "But isn't our boss surnamed Chu? How can there be a younger brother surnamed Zhang? And he looks as handsome as a movie star, you know, Sister Wang!"

The colleague immediately signaled her to whisper: "Damn you, little girl! Are you afraid that people won't hear you?!"

After all, he was two years older. The colleague looked up and saw that there was no one at the front desk, and then lowered his voice and said: "Our former chairman's surname is Zhang, and the second son of Zhang is his only son--the current boss is named after his mother. It is said that when the old director Zhang remarried, his wife brought him in from outside..."

The elevator ascended steadily, and the floor-to-ceiling mirrors shone brightly under the brilliant lights.

There were only the two of them in this small space, Zhang Shun took off his sunglasses, and stared provocatively at Chu He's face in the mirror—his brother had no intention of speaking at all, he just stared straight ahead, his face sinking like water , without the slightest expression.

"You didn't ask me why I came here?" Zhang Shun couldn't bear it and opened his mouth first.

"Ask for money."

"Hey - can't I just come to see my brother?"

"How much?"

Zhang Shun's expression froze, and he said for a while, "...500 million."

Chuhe finally turned his head to look at his younger brother, "What are you doing?"

His skin was very pale, even a little transparent under the light.The lips are thin and look cold and ruthless, unlike Zhang Shun's cute and handsome face, it should be difficult for people to feel close to him with such a look.

How did such a person find someone to work for him and take the group from his father to seize power?

Zhang Shun thought about it absent-mindedly, and said casually, "Let's just have fun. The cellist of the Central Orchestra, I gave her a car last time, and I spent all my money for the New Year. This time, I'm going to an auction again. Mayor Huang's nephew and a few others are also there, I guess this time there are several million people who can't come down..."

Chu He said lightly, "Where's Fu Ya?"

"Who?" Zhang Shun was stunned for a moment before he realized: "Oh, you introduced that lady from the professor's family——I'm sure she's going to be sick. She carries a book with her wherever she goes. Can't let go, I can't bear this kind of situation. I think she is the most suitable for you like that, you two can wrap up in a quilt and talk about life and ideals every night, hahahaha..."

Chu He stared at his younger brother motionlessly, his eyes were as transparent as glass beads under the light.

Zhang Shun didn't know how to be afraid, so he put his elbows on his shoulders carelessly, and asked with a smirk, "I didn't say that, brother, you sent her to me directly from your room, didn't you? You can do it, hurry up." Take it back, your brother really doesn't need someone to serve you—oh, by the way, don't say that brother doesn't respect you, I didn't lift a finger on that girl, I'll keep it waiting for you haha!"

Chuhe raised his hand and pushed his brother's arm away.

At this moment, the elevator stopped on the first floor of the Finance Department, the door opened, and the Chu River walked out like water.Just like this, Zhang Shun didn't know when enough was enough, and chased after his brother, teasing: "You two must have a lot to talk about! If it's not interesting to just talk, my brother can lend you two teaching videos in friendship! If not, we can find another The doctor came to take a look, you said that at your young age, you have kidney deficiency all day long..."

When Chuhe came to the financial room, he knocked on the financial manager's door without looking at the brilliant faces of the accountants outside, and said, "Give him 50 yuan and put it in my name."

The manager got up immediately: "Okay boss, check or transfer?"

"Cheque."

It just so happened that Zhang Shun came in carelessly, and asked as soon as he heard it: "Didn't you say five hundred, how did it become fifty?"

Chuhe didn't answer, the manager only felt that the air pressure in the room dropped sharply, and his whole body felt like a light on his back, and his back was soaked with cold sweat layer after layer after writing the check.

A moment later, Chuhe took the check and threw it into his brother's arms.

"Leave four hundred and five for me to find a doctor." He said coldly, "Don't you know that seeing a doctor is very expensive these days?"

Ten minutes later, Zhang Shun came down humming a little tune, and whistled to the lady when he passed the front desk.

"Beauty, I don't have much money this time, so I'll treat you next time!"

The lady at the front desk didn't like such a frivolous young man, but seeing how handsome he was, her tender face couldn't help but blush.When he was about to dodge, Zhang Shun had already sauntered away with his long legs.

When Chuhe went home that night, he heard deafening music coming from the villa from afar.

He took off his suit jacket and handed it to the housekeeper, and asked, "What is the second young master doing?"

The old butler had watched Zhang Shun grow up in this house for so many years, so he was naturally protective, so he said cautiously: "Second young master and friends, have a party with some friends..."

Chuhe shook his head, not knowing whether it was ridicule or funny, he said softly, "...friend."

He was wearing a white shirt, black suit pants, and no tie, and he was walking towards the hall while unbuttoning his collar.The old butler intentionally diverted his attention, and followed him step by step and asked, "By the way, young master, the rumor you told me to investigate in the morning has come out—it was Aunt Liu from the kitchen who got up at night and saw the white shadow. Wandering outside the Second Young Master's door, I screamed out of fear..."

Chu He rolled up his sleeves to his elbows and asked, "What did she see?"

The old butler didn't dare to mention the gods and ghosts, so he said very cleverly: "Aunt Liu's eyes are dim, and there are some mistakes. I'll go to the servant's room to beat and beat, so that everyone will stop talking about it. "

Chu He nodded and said, "I know what it is." As he was walking through the hall, he leaned on the railing and saw a small dance floor downstairs. The neon lights on the dance floor were glamorous, and several young men and women were shaking their heads crazily there.Zhang Shun was lazily sitting on the small sofa, next to him was a delicate boy with snow-like complexion, nestling in his arms like a bird.

Chu He poked his head out and shouted, "Zhang Shun!"

Several people below looked up, and Chuhe asked sharply, "Who did you bring to spend the night at home last night? Don't run around in the corridor naked in the middle of the night!"

After speaking, he lifted his foot and left.

The eyes of a group of cronies turned to Zhang Shun at once——Zhang Shun was splashed with dirty water for streaking in the middle of the night for no reason, and after a while he said inexplicably, "...I don't have one?"

Chu He returned to the study, called the internal number and ordered a bowl of sugar water, and took out a yellowed "Holding the Corpse" from the bookshelf to read.

After watching for a while, the study door was knocked lightly twice.

Chuhe turned a page and said, "Come in."

The door was pushed open with a click, and then footsteps walked in softly, and the door was closed behind the backhand.The person who came seemed to be very cautious, and it took a long time to walk to the large desk, and the voice was full of tenderness: "Young master, your sugar water."

Chuhe raised his head, and the boy who was snuggling up to Zhang Shun downstairs just now was standing in front of him.

It's no wonder that Zhang Shun, who has seen countless people since he was a child, can bring him home. This child is really beautiful.The big eyes are so charming that they seem to be able to drip water at any time, and the figure is like a girl who has not yet begun to develop and is soft and boneless. Just standing there, there is a steady stream of viciousness emanating from every inch of his body. People who smoked are ecstatic.

Chu He looked back to the book, "Put it down."

The boy put down the bowl, hesitated for a while, then knelt gently on the ground, took a few steps to the armchair, raised his face and said softly: "Master."

There was no sign of welcome or disapproval on Chu He's face, and he didn't even give him half a glance from the corner of his eye.

The boy was heartbroken and said: "Eldest Young Master, my name is Xiao Hu, and I have only been with Second Young Master for a few days, so I come to worship you on the top of the mountain."

This is very interesting to say, and at least a few things have been taken care of——First, I am not just here to bother you, I am very polite and tactful to say hello to you; second, it is not too late for me to invite you, because I have only been with the second young master for a few days, and now I am here, which shows that I respect you very much.

Chuhe's mouth curled into a half-smile: "Do you know who I am?"

"do not know."

"Then you will kneel?"

Xiao Hu pursed his lips and smiled, and said: "Although my eyesight is clumsy, I can't recognize your real body, but I can still recognize the devilish energy in your body. You have surpassed our monster clan, and you have almost become a devil through cultivation. What's there?"

Chuhe really felt a little interesting now.He put down the book, leaned slightly to stare at Xiao Hu's captivating big eyes, and asked with great interest: "You fox clan——I know a senior of yours, and it's no better than you. How can you talk like that?"

Xiao Hu said with a smile: "If you can still admire my willow appearance, I will naturally serve you wholeheartedly..." He took another half step forward, and a snow-white catkin gently covered the Chu River He fumbled down his chest again, undoing the shirt buttons on the expensive fabric one by one.

Chu He didn't stop him, and didn't even move. He just leaned on the back of the large armchair and watched the vixen work.After a while he sighed leisurely, not sure whether it was ridicule or emotion: "You fox clan has thousands of people and faces, just like human beings. There are those who are so obedient and sensible like you, and there are also those who are rebellious and naturally sloppy. ..."

Xiao Hu Yanran smiled: "I don't know which senior offended you back then?"

Chuhe said leisurely: "Oh, that's when I haven't degenerated into a devil...Do you know Hu Qing?"

Xiao Hu was taken aback.

In the next second, his face turned pale instantly, as if the blood in his whole body had been drained.

At this moment, a cloud of red and black air rose slowly behind him, quickly condensed in mid-air, and a human figure appeared vaguely; the shape became more and more clear, and finally a foot stepped out from the air mass, and a whole body The man in black came out of nowhere as if tearing apart the space!

Xiao Hu turned back trembling.

The pressure as heavy as the top of a mountain forced him to bow his waist, and it was extremely difficult to even raise his head.The oxygen in the room was sucked out in an instant. In the extreme suffocation, the vixen even forgot the instinctive charm. He only heard his ears humming, and his eyes almost protruded from their sockets——

He saw the mantra-like red lines on the side of the man's face.

"Demon..." He heard the sound of his teeth chattering clearly, "The Demon Lord..."

Chu He rolled up his clothes casually, and said, "I forgot to tell you, if you want to become a demon too, it's useless to find me, it's faster to find him."

Chapter 2 Zhang Ershao cried like a ghost and howled like a wolf: "Brother!!! There are ghosts in the Marle Gobi!!!"

The vixen's entire body was trembling at a frequency visible to the naked eye.He was shaking so badly that even Chuhe felt that if he continued to shake like this, he would be able to spit out his inner alchemy by himself in the next second.

But Xiao Hu didn't feel it himself, his mind went blank, he didn't even know that Mozun raised his hand and pressed it down on his Tianling Gai.

"—Okay," Chuhe said suddenly.

His voice was very special, the moment he opened his mouth, it was like bright light splitting the chaos, the vixen shivered, and the cold air surged up in his internal organs, and he woke up in an instant!

Mozun's hand stopped in the air, Chuhe said: "Go, serve the second young master well."

The vixen didn't even dare to look up to see what the Demon Lord looked like, and almost hit the door when he rushed out, but he couldn't even feel the pain, and ran out staggeringly.

"..." Mozun turned his head and said flatly, "You really don't pick anything."

Chu He laughed and buttoned his shirt buttons one by one.He has a pale and plain face, but when he is smiling and buttoning his buttons, this expression has an indescribable taste that makes it difficult to look away.

"I can do even you," he said with a smile, "Of course I don't pick anything."

The hem of Mozun's gold-embroidered black robe made a strange but slight rubbing sound on the carpet following his footsteps.In fact, he doesn't have three heads and six arms like the ones that have been spread in the underground world for a long time, and he is not even ugly or scary; if he restrains his magic breath and walks on the street disguised as a human being, besides having a different aura than ordinary people, he is not even ugly. would be too noticeable.

"The only thing I don't understand," the Demon Venerable asked with great interest, "is it because you're still holding on to that nine-tailed fox because he's really cheap, or because you still think he and Zhou Hui really have a relationship?" Then a leg?"

Chu He said with a puff: "Fan Luo, do you think that Zhou Hui led the six groups to encircle and suppress the Hell Dao because you were also a cheap person, or because he also suspected that you had an affair with me?"

Mozun Fanluo thought for a while, and smiled slightly: "I can't think of it, maybe it's both—but if it were me, and my wife ran away with the deadly enemy, I guess it would be hard to bear it. "

Chuhe picked up the bowl of sugar water brought by the vixen on the table, went to the bathroom and poured it, and said, "The relationship between us is not the kind of relationship you imagined."

When he walked, his steps were very steady, his back was naturally straight, and his posture was very elegant and graceful.Fan Luo folded his arms and leaned against the door of the bathroom, staring at his back with raised eyebrows, the eyes in the light and shadow were unclear; however, Chu He seemed to have no feeling, and suddenly said: "By the way, call your subordinates." Evil ghosts don’t come into the main house—last night wandering outside Zhang Shun’s room, my cooking aunt saw her, she was almost frightened to death, I got up in the middle of the night and called her ghost for three or four hours..."

As soon as he raised his head, Fan Luo appeared behind him without a sound, pressing his hand on his exposed side neck.

"go on."

"...Today I had to pour a basin of dirty water on my younger brother who ran naked in the middle of the night to wipe this matter away. Tell your evil spirits not to trouble Zhang Shun, I am just such a younger brother."

Fan Luo pressed his lips against his neck, and his laughter sounded a bit dull: "I remember... the first time I saw you."

"Then you should still remember what I said that time."

"Remember." Fan Luo said leisurely, as if he thought it was very interesting: "I was thinking...you said that if Zhou Hui knew your current situation, would he want to kill the demon again, or would he want to destroy the Buddha again? "

There was a strange look on Chuhe's face, but he didn't speak yet, only heard two knocks on the door of the study outside.

"Brother? Brother, are you in there?"

Before Chuhe spoke, Mozun suddenly bit his side neck!

While the blood was gushing out, Chuhe grabbed the edge of the pool and let out a muffled snort that could not be concealed.

"Brother?" Zhang Shun called out from outside the door.

——Van Luo's canines pierced deeply into his veins, because he couldn't suck enough, a stream of blood flowed down the half-naked and thin back, shocking on the pale skin.Chuhe panted slightly, raised his head and wanted to say something, but opened his mouth several times and then closed it tremblingly.

The Mozun bit the soft piece of flesh on his neck and said, "Answer him."

"..." Chuhe took a deep breath intermittently, and raised his voice, "I'm here! What's the matter?"

Zhang Shun's voice outside the door sounded a little puzzled: "Xiao Huyou took a step ahead and said that he accidentally disturbed you just now, please let me apologize to you! What are you doing bro?"

"……I see!"

"What's going on? What are you doing? Open the door!"

Fan Luo's dull laughter could hardly be concealed, Chu He couldn't bear it anymore, turned his head and shouted: "I said I got it!"

"What are you doing? What are you doing, open the door! Brother!"

"Go to sleep!"

Zhang Shun was obviously taken aback, blinked his eyes a few times outside the door, and then asked inexplicably: "So angry... are you masturbating?"

Although these words were murmured to himself, they definitely couldn't be hidden from the ears of the two people in the door.The Mozun almost collapsed on Chuhe with a smile, he smiled and stroked his palms and said, "Your brother, you are really a wonderful person—don't care whether Zhou Hui likes him or not, I really like him, hahaha..."

Panting, Chu He folded up his skirt. The piece of flesh that was sucked blood just now has healed automatically, leaving only a red mark like a hickey, with bright bloodshot around it.

The process of directly opening the inner alchemy to people to absorb spiritual power made him exhausted, and it took a long time before he was unable to grasp the demon's hand, "Let go."

His fingers were terribly cold as ice.

Fan Luo was standing while he leaned over slightly, and the Mozun stared at his forbearing side face in this condescending posture, and after looking at him for a long time, he said in a low voice: "I still miss your real face..."

Chuhe said: "Let go!"

——Although he has fallen to the point where he has nowhere to go, and even his real body cannot be found, but the irreversible aura in his bones can still be clearly revealed from the most subtle places.

Mozun didn't move, and after a while he slowly pulled his hand from his naked side under the hem of his clothes.

"Well," he smiled, "everything is as you wish."

·

When Zhang Shun returned to the bedroom, he couldn't help imagining the scene of his brother masturbating alone in the study, feeling a little horrified.

In his impression, Chuhe is a silent, self-disciplined, calm and almost indifferent person: he is never surprised, excited, neither very happy nor angry, and rarely has emotional fluctuations.He has never had contact with the opposite sex, and he is even insensitive to intimacy from the same sex; his whole person is like an ice cube wrapped in a well-tailored black suit, and even in the hot summer, he exudes a chill that lasts for years.

Such a person would have been an ascetic in ancient times, and a Puritan in the Middle Ages.Zhang Shun once badly suspected that he had some unspeakable hidden dangers, but one year when the two brothers went to the hot spring, he took the opportunity to see it, and it seemed that it was not abnormal.

Zhang Shun was a little apprehensive towards his brother.

He knew that when his father was still there, he was a little inexplicably afraid of this adopted son with a different surname.

Chuhe is said to have been brought in by his second wife from the outside when his father remarried.The reason why it is called "it is said" is because Zhang Shuncong has never met his nominal stepmother - he was five or six years old at that time, and was sent abroad to live with his grandparents for a while, and when he came back, he heard that his stepmother died in an accident .

Chairman Zhang became a widower for the second time, and since then he has completely given up the idea of ​​remarrying, and has lived alone with his two children.At that time, although Zhang Shun was still young, under the subtle influence of the people around him, he already knew that Chuhe was an adopted son, and he was also an adopted son who might threaten his status as the heir. There are still some; at the instigation of the people around him, he did embarrass Chu He, a cheap brother.

Mr. Zhang was furious when he found out, he changed all the people around him, and called him to reprimand him: "Chuhe is your brother! Since you called him brother, you will have to take care of him in this life." Treat him like your own brother!"

Zhang Shun was at the most rebellious moment, and immediately said back: "I don't have such a cheap brother, I don't recognize him! You love to recognize him!"

In a fit of rage, Mr. Zhang, the old chairman, resorted to family law and beat Zhang Shun to the point of crying with a meal of fried shredded pork with a belt. He couldn't get out of bed for half a month.This is not over yet, from then on, the old chairman would nag Zhang Shun whenever he caught Zhang Shun, which made Zhang Shun dislike Chuhe more and more, but he didn't dare to do any more tricks.

Everyone said that Mr. Zhang was partial to his adopted son, and made the parents and children afraid, so he was obsequious to his elder brother.

Only Zhang Shun knew it was not the case.

He still remembered that late at night when he was beaten, he woke up in a daze from pain and thirst, only to hear soft conversations coming from the bedside.He immediately pretended to be still asleep without moving, and secretly opened his eyes a slit, only to see the teenage Chu He sitting in the armchair, and the old chairman Zhang standing on the ground, bowing his body and bending over, with a very expression on his face... Humility.

He never imagined that his father could still be associated with humility, but at that moment, the first thing that popped up in the young Zhang Shun's mind was indeed this word.

"...Ah Shun is still young, and there are limits to pranks. You beat me up so often, it seems that I am very intolerant..."

"Yes, yes, I understand, next time I will never—"

There was a moment of silence in the bedroom, Zhang Shun was afraid that he would be discovered, so he immediately closed his eyes and remained still, breathing slightly and steadily.

"There will be no next time." Chuhe stood up and walked out, "——you can also beat the natural Buddha bones?"

Old Chairman Zhang was behind him, his underwear soaked in cold sweat layer by layer.Seeing that Chu He was walking to the door, he pointed to Zhang Shun on the bed without looking back, and said, "He is thirsty, give him some water."

……

Everything that happened late that night was so vivid in Zhang Shun's young memory that it became so clear later that it was a bit false.Many years later, he couldn't tell whether it was a real conversation or a hallucination caused by pain and high fever; he only knew that his father never touched him with a finger, and Chuhe was right in front of him. His father has always been respectful and respectful, and he never has that condescending and bossy look.

But since then, he has had that feeling vaguely in his heart—his father is afraid of Chuhe.

This feeling is difficult to describe, let alone prove, and it is even ridiculous to say it.However, although Zhang Shun never went to ask his father for confirmation, nor mentioned it to anyone; this vague guess and feeling has always been deeply rooted in his heart, and it has not disappeared over the years.

Maybe it was because Xiao Hu left that night and Zhang Shun slept alone. He dreamed many dreams over and over in a trance.One of the dreams was that when he was a child, he played against Chuhe. He used the excuse that he was lost in the mansion to lure him to the warehouse late at night, turned off the electric switch and locked him up all night. It was not released until the next morning by the servant; however, in the dream, he returned to the dark warehouse in a trance, quietly looking at his brother in the dark.

Chu He faced him sideways, sitting cross-legged in a brilliant lotus flower.His face was serene and peaceful, with a soft halo like white jade; around him were crowded with false and real ghosts, all of whom prostrated themselves on the ground, and in the distance there were countless unjust souls, who were coming out of the vast black night. Dragging a long cry and rushing forward.

Zhang Shun was floating in the air in a daze until Chu He opened his eyes and looked at him, asking softly, "Did you have a dream?"

Zhang Shun didn't know what to say, so he nodded.

"The Zhang family made money from the dead," Chuhe said softly, "I was locked here by you that day, and I saved this piece of dead souls."

Zhang Shun's pupils dilated slightly, his brother brushed his forehead and said, "Go back to sleep."

Zhang Shun once again fell into a messy dream, and immediately before his eyes, it changed into a white hospital ward, and the thin old Chairman Zhang was panting with difficulty on the hospital bed.

"Ah Shun..." He tightly grasped the hand of his only son, "I have left——the family business to you, your brother...From now on, you will, rely on him to take care of you, and you will treat him as—as you My own, my own brother..."

Every word is like rubbing bloody gravel, and the light of life in his father's eyes is getting dimmer.

"You have to listen carefully and listen to his words... be safe and sound, and you have to be... safe and smooth for the rest of your life..."

His father let go of his hand and closed his eyes.

Zhang Shun was trembling all over, he wanted to cry but couldn't, his throat seemed to be blocked by a sour blood clot, even his saliva was glowing with hot blood.

A hand patted him lightly on the shoulder.

"Don't be afraid," Chuhe said in a low voice when he appeared behind him at some point, "he's going to reincarnate."

Zhang Shun choked up and asked: "You——how do you, how do you know? How do you..."

Chuhe sighed softly, "I just know."

Zhang Shun's voice was blocked, his eye sockets were red, and his temples were in severe pain as if being pierced by an awl.He gritted his teeth tightly to hold back the bitter cry, and turned his head to look at his father on the hospital bed, wanting to see him for the last time.

——Then he saw his father's eyes opened at some point, and two lines of blood and tears flowed down slowly.

"Zhang Shun..." He heard his father call faintly, "Zhang Shun, come here, Zhang Shun..."

come over……

Zhang Shun, come here...

Zhang Shun suddenly woke up from the dream: "Dad!"

Then he realized that he had a nightmare. The bedroom was dark and silent, and the hour hand was pointing to two o'clock in the morning.

He took a breath, forced himself to ignore the sadness and loss in his heart, got up and wanted to pour a glass of water on the bedside table.

But then, he froze there——

I saw under the moonlight, at some point beside the bed, there was someone standing silently!

It may not be accurate to say that it is a person, but it is a gray-white figure with long hair covering the face, withered arms hanging by the side, inch-long nails with sharp curls, dripping down Flowing black water.

Zhang Shun's whole body creaked and trembled like an electric shock: "You, you, you, who are you?"

The "man" raised his head, and at that moment Zhang Shun saw that his entire jaw was rotten, and his rotten tongue fell to his chest with a whimper.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah--!!"

Upstairs in the bedroom, Chuhe jumped up from the bed in an instant, strode out the door, grabbed the railing and jumped.

Hearing the movement, the butler just put on his clothes in a hurry, when he saw the young master descending from the sky, landed firmly with a bang, without even a beat, got up in an instant and directly knocked open Zhang Shun's door!

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!" screaming, "Brother! Brother! There are ghosts! There are ghosts!"

Chu He turned on the light with a snap, frowned and said, "Why are you crazy in the middle of the night?"

The moment Chuhe entered the door, the evil spirit disappeared like a snowman under the sun. When the housekeeper and servants rushed in after hearing the movement, they saw the bedroom was neatly arranged, the bed was messy, and the second young master looked like He screamed like crazy, and the young master who was grabbed by him like a life-saving straw didn't even have time to put on his shoes.

The old butler sighed in an instant: Although he is not his own, the young master usually treats people indifferently, but he can still tell the difference at critical moments! ...

The eldest and young master who was seen as different did not have the leisure and ease of brother and friend at all.He directly waved his hand and asked the housekeeper to lead the servants to leave, and when there were only the two of them left in the room, he poured a glass of water and forced Zhang Shun to drink it, pushed him to the bed and said, "It's all right, go to sleep."

"There are ghosts!" Zhang Shun desperately grabbed his brother's hand: "There really are ghosts!"

"..." Chuhe said: "You are really dreaming, go to sleep."

"I'm not kidding you! It's a white ghost with such long nails and such a long tongue..."

Chu He impatiently tried to leave, but Zhang Shun refused to let go. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a black shadow in the corner of the room from the corner of his eye. When he looked closely, he saw a man in a black robe standing there. His cheeks were covered with bloody patterns, and he was looking down at himself.

"..." Zhang Shun's teeth were chattering: "...Brother, why is there someone over there?"

Chuhe turned his head and looked at Mozun for a moment, then said coldly, "No."

Zhang Shun couldn't even utter the last bit of sound, his face was pale and trembling, and if he insisted on not getting dizzy up to this time, it can be regarded as his mental quality, "Really, really, really!!"

Chuhe repeated word by word: "Really not."

Mozun finally shifted his gaze, and the corner of his mouth curled into a curve that could not be called a smile at all.Then just as he appeared, the tall body instantly disappeared into the air, as if it had never been there before.

Chu He turned his head and tapped lightly between Zhang Shun's eyebrows, and said in a low voice, "Go to sleep, and forget about it when you wake up."

His fingertips seemed to have a scorching warmth, and Zhang Shun felt relaxed, and the extreme fear and tension quickly subsided like an ebb tide—this was probably the first time in his life that the second young master of the Zhang family saw the eldest so pleasing to the eye, Even his brother's plain face suddenly had a lot of indescribable charm.

It's rare for Zhang Ershao to look like a younger brother. He pulled his brother and begged: "I...I'm still scared, can I go to sleep in your room tonight?"

Chuhe's expression was a little weird.

"Brother, please," the second young master wanted to cry, "Why don't I go out and get a hotel room now—wait, what if that dirty thing still follows me?!"

"...Come here," Chuhe finally sighed.

Zhang Shun didn't want to stay in his room for a second, so he quickly rolled up the quilt and pillow, followed his brother's ass and went upstairs.Unexpectedly, his brother's bedroom is not as simple and boring as he imagined. Although there are not many things and almost no decorations, the room is very messy. On the ground, the changed shirts and trousers were scattered by the bathroom door.

According to Zhang Shun's usual temper, at this time he must tease and sarcasm a few words, but tonight he was so obedient that he didn't dare to say a single extra word, so he immediately lay down obediently with his tail between his legs, and only begged: "Can you?" Can't you turn off the lights?"

Chuhe then left a warm yellow bedside lamp and lay down beside his younger brother silently.

"Brother," Zhang Shun couldn't help turning his head, "I'll invite a master to take a look at it tomorrow, what do you think—"

His brother had already closed his eyes.

——Zhang Shun's eyes were fixed on the side of his brother's neck, and he didn't move for a while.

His elder brother, who has always been silent, indifferent and inaccessible, has a very obvious one on the side of his neck
