The sword light on the opponent's neck flashed in the cold night, and the young man behind him remained calm: "Sun family, Lu family, what's the difference?"

Blood oozed from the youth's lips and teeth.

His knuckles trembled slightly.

"Prefect Lu's reputation for benevolence is well-known throughout the world, and his actions are open and aboveboard. He will never join forces with the prefect of Berkshire. Sun Jian is only interested in profit, and has a heart of tigers and wolves. He must have other plans for someone. You might as well speak openly to avoid hypocrisy!"

What kind of brain circuit is this.

Li Yinzhou couldn't help sneering: "I thought that a young hero who roams the rivers and lakes must have clear grievances and grievances. I didn't expect that the king's repayment is also based on the dishes."

The young man didn't expect this skinny kid to dare to talk back.I have traveled all over the rivers and lakes, but I have never heard this joke slang. It only sounds superficial when I listen to it, but it is really interesting when I think about it carefully.

He was coughing and laughing, in the violent ups and downs, his internal organs seemed to be violently stirred, and a mouthful of blood was wrung out.

Li Yinzhou didn't show any sympathy, and continued to make up the knife: "How much is your life worth, does it also depend on the face of the Sun family and Lu family?"

The young man barely suppressed his smile, wiped his lips vigorously, and blushed, "I have been in the world for many years, and I was taught a lesson by a kid. It's ridiculous, ridiculous!"

He didn't care about the cold light on his back, and with the last bit of strength, he rolled over and fell to the ground.The muscular arm fell to the side, throwing a big hole in the curtain of reeds.

Reed catkins fly.

Starlight scattered from the snow-white fluff.

Lazily looking at the young boy with the sword on his back, he let the cool wind blow past his face, he just felt it was funny: "To be held hostage by two children, it would be better to die."

"It's not impossible to die." Li Yinzhou sat up, "It cost me four taels of gold to save you, and it also took 20 days of time and energy. Let's make up the whole ten taels and pay back the money first."

The young man showed surprise: "You two really saved me? No one else?"

Looking at the attire of the sword-wielding boy, he knew that it was not a grass-roots family, but this arrogant little boy beside him, dressed in commoner clothes, who kept saying that he saved him, which is too bizarre.

Li Yinzhou gave him a squinting look, the Sun family and Lu family had saved his life, and they would not be able to offend him, so they would be polite if they could; this little thief's life was in his hands, and he was not grateful, so he had to beat him severely.

But you can't reveal everything to others. What is hidden in the belt is an antidote that surpasses the upper limit of the times, just like Hua Tuo's Mafeisan, who is guilty of carrying a jade, and if it is too exposed, it will bring disaster.

He turned his eyes to the young boy who was standing silently, and coughed lightly.

One voice: "Young master, tell him."

The young boy retracted the sword without saying a word, and put the long and sharp edge into the sheath.

After a while, he said: "I am the young master of the Sun family, and I am of the same mind as the Sun family. If you look down on my father and brother, you can go to your death."

Li Yinzhou choked his saliva into his throat, raised his head in surprise, his pupils dilated slightly, and confirmed that he was not blind.

The other party's eyebrows are graceful, and the eyes are like water. Where is the young master of the Sun family who is so cold-eyed?

Lu Xun's little finger moved slightly on the side of his waist, silently beckoning him not to pierce it.

The small actions between the two children did not catch the eyes of the young man, he restrained his expression, and said calmly: "You don't need to provoke me, no matter you are the young master of the He family, since you saved Gan, you will be rewarded with a thousand gold, and I will ask you clearly." Which one is it, but it’s just easy to settle accounts, thank you with a thousand gold, a penny is a lot for you!"

Ganmou.

Li Yinzhou's heart paused, it couldn't be the Gan he was thinking of, could it?

Lu Xun was unmoved: "Could it be that Gan Xingba's life is only worth a thousand pieces of gold?"

Gan Ning's eyes suddenly focused on his face: "Isn't it too greedy to let someone be a wolf dog with one life?"

After asking, the two remained silent at the same time.

Li Yinzhou was a little dumbfounded.

It was actually Gan Ning Gan Xingba.

Connecting the memories carefully, the bell, the Bashu accent, and the "Jinfan thief" in Lu Xun's mouth all belong to this outrageous young man.

The familiar window paper was pierced, and in the stories passed down from later generations, the general of Soochow was unruly in his early years. Treating money as dung, being vile and heroic, is indeed worthy of the word "thief".

His subsequent life is somewhat vague. As the most independent member of Jiangdong, a huge military group, he is more famous for his rough and violent temper than his outstanding achievements.

Now that I see it, it really makes my teeth itch with hatred.

In the silence with each other's thoughts, Lu Xun said softly: "You don't need to be loyal, as long as you don't become an enemy of the Sun family, the mountains are as high as the water, as wide as you want, and you will still be an elder brother when you meet."

Gan Ning grinned and bared his teeth: "You know how to talk about seniority, I can be your son-in-law."

Cursing, but not objecting: "Next time I see Mrs. Sun, I will spare your life, even if it is repaid. And your ten taels of gold..."

Li Yinzhou looked sideways at him, but there was no trace of money in his eyes.

Lu Xun's favor is too unreasonable.If the Sun family's aggressive method is used to persuade Gan Ning to live

That's all, but it's a bloody loss no matter how you think about it.

After all, Lu Xun joined the Sun family's staff, at least after the defeat of the Lu family. Now that the Jiangdong family still has a place among the heroes of the world, isn't it too early to plan like this?

Or is it selfish?

……

Gan Ning didn't care about Li Yinzhou's changing expression at all, instead he wiped the blood from his hands on his waist, tremblingly untied the red string of the bell with callused fingertips, took out one of the bells, and handed it to him.

"I've been ripped off now. Fortunately, they don't look down on this pair of bells. You will hold this bell in the future. When I come back to find you, I will return you a thousand pieces of gold as a thank you."

His wild eyes fell on the bell, his eyes were like spring water that had broken through the ice, and there was a moment of warmth flowing: "I think you are an unusual child, don't break my bell, or I will kill you. "

The first half could still be heard, but the latter began to be presumptuous again. Li Yinzhou picked up the bell casually and shook it in front of his eyes. Amid the crisp sound, the old red rope was about to break.

Under Gan Ning's stern gaze, which was about to turn his face, he pushed the bell back: "It's not necessary, you just remember what my young master said. Besides, the kindness in my heart lasts much longer than a bell."

Gan Ning looked at him with a complicated expression: "You know how to behave."

Li Yinzhou was so tired that he yawned: "I said earlier, it is useful for me to save you."

These words aroused the curiosity of the other party: "I also want to know, you, a child of seven or eight years old, what means can you save people?"

Oops.

Just asked at this time.

Li Yinzhou glanced at Lu Xun seemingly casually, seeing that his expression was calm as usual, he knew that he had already made up his mind, and it was impossible to deceive him like coaxing Gu Shao.

But it can never tell the truth.

He thought for a while, and took a compromise: "Because I used to live in the mountain temple, and sometimes I could see the gods. He said that you should not die, and you will still be a general in the future. So I used A few common herbs, and you will live."

This kind of weird nonsense is purely to deceive Gan Ning who doesn't like to study. As for Young Master Lu, he can't figure it out anyway, let him figure it out for himself, at most he will think that he is colluding with Zhang Ji.

Gan Ning was really shaken: "I also remember, somewhere, I heard someone asking me something."

That is indeed true.

Li Yinzhou was misunderstood by him, and nodded solemnly: "That is destiny."

"Unexpectedly, I risked my life to win, but I failed to die, but there are still

Such an adventure. "Gan Ning's voice was low, but it seemed a bit empty, and his eyebrows were not wrinkled because of the pain, "Perhaps..."

He cut off the conversation with a sharp knife, his eyes were firm, and the previous hostility disappeared.

The corners of Li Yinzhou's mouth twitched slightly. Did he hit the right button to make a gangster who broke the law and discipline go on the road to good and re-employment?

But in the past history, is there really such a person as Li Yinzhou?

He closed his eyes slightly and didn't look into it further.

I have done it all, and I can never go back on my word.

What's more...

He touched the half of the activated charcoal powder tucked in his belt, and he smiled inwardly. He and Gan Ning originally took what they needed, at least it verified that the product this time could indeed be used as an antidote.

Although the sample size is too small and the subjects' physiques are too aggressive, they are still within the human category, which proves that this idea is feasible.

Li Yinzhou heaved a sigh of relief, in this vaguely boiling era, he finally had the capital to survive independently and live in peace.

Looking up to the sky, the stars are like waterfalls, and I don't know when the brilliant galaxy has quietly approached the zenith.In the vast field of vision, the world is no longer a side of the Lujiang River, which is surprisingly vast.

The wind is like a bath.

"How long does Brother Gan need to cultivate?" Lu Xun seemed oblivious to the deep thinking of the two, and his voice as smooth as water brought the two empty souls back to reality.

Gan Ning turned his head and said, "I'll be fine in fourteen or five days!"

Li Yinzhou corrected decisively: "It can be as little as three months, and as long as a year or so. Although they can't cut your bones, they have suffered a lot of internal injuries. If you don't cultivate, you will die."

After hearing the mixed comments, Gan Ning was not in a hurry to refute, and seemed to have settled down: "There are still brothers in Berkshire who are in the mud, I can't live alone, and I will leave after a month of training."

Knowing that he couldn't hold back his violent temper, Li Yinzhou simply let him go, but Lu Xun thought more: "It hasn't rained on the Lujiang River for a long time, and if there is a heavy rain, the momentum will not be small. You are not safe by the river, why don't I send you to the city to recuperate. After a month, you will definitely have a way to leave by yourself."

Gan Ning remained silent, Quan Dang agreed.

That's a good deal.Although there were some twists and turns, they did not stab anyone. Fortunately, Lu Xun helped him cover it up.

So at noon, he deliberately drove Gu Shao away, and if he followed him secretly, he must have seen through his lies a long time ago.

With such insight into the subtleties, and refusing to let go of the smallest details, it is no wonder that after several years of obscurity, he became famous in one battle.He is Sun Quanzang's successor and Jiang Dong's last bang

Flame unleashed.

Fortunately, it is now a grasshopper on a rope.

Li Yinzhou used his hand as a pillow, and in the midst of a long yawn, said "Thank you" with the shape of his lips imperceptibly.

----------

As if to fulfill Lu Xun's words, Gan Ning was sent into the city with an excuse made up by the young chief of the prefect's mansion. The wind and rain, like a scholar who rushed to the school at the last moment, threw away the last trace of pretension, and rushed all the way to the ground .The rain pillars all over the sky connect the sky with the earth, and the rising rain is like a late guest, rushing into the halls of every household familiarly and eagerly.

This kind of heavy rain poured intermittently for a month before Tiangong seemed to have exhausted his strength and began to show sunshine.In front of the gates of the Lujiang Gate, colorful cloth clothes are twirling in the air like flags, and the crisp sound of wind chimes plays harmony with it.

Probably because I couldn’t stand the wind chimes hanging in every house, one morning, when Li Yinzhou went to visit Gan Ning as usual, the remote hut was completely empty, only a bell was left rolling gently on the table .

There is a bamboo strip pressed underneath.

Gan Ning's handwriting is more scribbled than Zhang Ji's, and full of mistakes and omissions than Li Yinzhou himself. After reading it horizontally and vertically, and supplementing his imagination, he managed to read the words——

"It's better to take my heart with me if I take things outside of me."

It's hard for him, a thief whose main business is robbery and sideline extortion, to come up with such an elegant sentence. Although the words are a bit plain, they have some meaning anyway.

Li Yinzhou gently picked up the small object, and took a picture of it facing the clear sky, the thin light beam passed through like silk strands, and the empty bell had no mystery.

Gan Ning has already taken away the untold story, leaving only a certificate of credit.

----------

An eventful life is like the rain on the Lujiang River, which comes and goes in a hurry. After the dense spring, the torrential summer, the dry and bleak autumn and winter seem to be lacklustre.

Lu Xun and Li Yinzhou exchanged bibliographies every half a month as usual, and Gu Shao often came to join in the fun, along with the sarcastic Sun Quan and the lively Sun Shangxiang, Zhang Ji's small shop was often full of children's voices.

He is very quiet and loves wonders, so he has been wandering around for many years, living in no fixed place, wherever he is, even if he moves his family.If you stay until you get bored and entangle with human feelings, you will be like a dandelion, leaving only an empty shell of a pharmacy, but people will quietly flee away in the direction of the wind.

Lujiang City is peaceful and comfortable. Although the neighbors are sometimes noisy, they seldom disturb them face to face.Among the big families, the Lu family is noble and clean, the Sun family is rebellious, and the Zhou family is downright arrogant.

Treat each other with courtesy, but the elders of the family owner seldom come and go to the pharmacy, after all, the owner of the mansion is not often there.Only Lu Kang is still in charge of the overall situation in Lujiang, but he is old and ill, and has no time to distract himself from personal affairs.

On the contrary, these young young masters often come and go, which is the first time for Zhang Ji.

It is the most troublesome age. Although the little kids are noisy, they are not lacking in cuteness. After a long time, even the silly Gu Shao and the cold Sun Quan seem to be more pleasing to the eye.

This is not a good sign.

People who practice medicine, such as criminal officials, are more ruthless and more compassionate.

Maybe it's time to move again.

He pinched his fingers to count the time. The New Year's Eve had passed, and there was a new round of spring rain. If he wanted to leave, he had to do so before summer, otherwise it would be raining and it would be unsafe to travel.

As for his little apprentice, he must be reluctant to part with his little sister, no matter how Zao Hui is still an eight-year-old child, it is impossible for him to be as ruthless and decisive as he is.

However, he is indeed a very talented child, so it would be a pity to just ignore him.

But that child is very preoccupied, considers a lot, has his own ideas, maybe he doesn't need the teacher to make decisions for him.Zhang Ji simply decided to pick a date to have a clear talk with him, to stay and stay as he pleases, and it would be considered clean.

Before the future could be clarified, an old servant from the Sun family hurried over, his face was ashen, and he couldn't even hold on to the usual polite manners.

"Sir, please go to the mansion!"

Zhang Ji raised his eyebrows and said, "Let's make it clear first, so I can bring the tools."

The old servant looked troubled, and looked around.Fortunately, Li Yinzhou, a little drug boy, was by his side at this meeting, and the two young masters of the Lu Mansion were still studying in Xiaohou's school with the fourth surname, and the storm had not yet reached Lujiang City.

He listened to Zhang Ji, and whispered a few words to explain the patient's situation, of course he only picked things to say.

Seeing the two whispering to each other, Li Yinzhou knew that there was something wrong with the Sun residence.

It is now the second year of Chuping, and the faint thunder has been hidden behind the thick and heavy clouds. In the commotion everywhere, there are occasional large friction outbreaks, such as lightning that breaks through the sky, leading to the collision of huge clouds behind.

He spent more than half a year improving the process of activated carbon, estimating the purity by the time of water purification, the product obtained now is more than twice as purified as that used on Gan Ning at the beginning, and it is almost close to the limit of material conditions. limit.

For the time being, there is no second Gan Ning who dares to take the first sip of the medicine, but it is a blessing from a certain point of view that he does not need the antidote.

He weighed a thick copy of "The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic", but his eyes were spared through the gaps in the bamboo slips.

, quietly observing the face of the old servant of the Sun family.

Just as he was thinking wildly, he saw a pair of black eyes suddenly appear, looking at him through the bamboo slips.

Looking up slightly, he saw a wrinkled forehead.

Li Yinzhou shook his hands, pulled down the hidden bibliography, and blinked innocently: "Sir, do you want to make a doctor's visit? I'll go prepare the medicine box!"

Zhang Jixin picked up the book in his hand and tapped on his forehead: "I don't concentrate on reading, my ears are tricky, come with me to Sun's Mansion."

Of course, the apprentice who was caught by the braid had to work diligently. The old servant faltered and looked nervous, obviously unwilling to reveal the truth.

I didn't want to step into the rich mansion, so a servant took the medicine box, stuffed him with a plate of melons and fruits, and pushed him out of the hall in a coaxing tone: "Look at how fresh this is, use it for fun, my lady In the backyard, you two have a good relationship, so why not play together."

Li Yinzhou was replaced by the medicine box full of seasonal gadgets, he was speechless for a while, and let him follow, probably because he was afraid that passers-by would notice something strange, but he only wanted to see Zhang Ji, which shows that the Sun family may not have a patient, but something must have happened. People's affairs are covered up so tightly.

Zhang Ji looked back and gave him a rare serious look.

Li Yinzhou nodded knowingly, without revealing any displeasure, raised his head and smiled at the servant, "Thank you, brother."

Then he happily took small steps and ran all the way to the backyard.

After waiting for no one around, he removed his innocent smile and looked around, but he didn't see Sun Shangxiang at all.

The Sun Mansion is extremely spacious, and the backyard is comparable to a garden. After detouring a few forked roads, a small jade-like lake came into view. The ripples of the water splashed in circles, as if a few drops of ink had been accidentally dropped into it. smooth.Li Yinzhou raised his eyes and saw sporadic pieces of rain falling, the water knows the weather before the earth.

A half-sized figure squatted by the pond.

Perhaps some servant's child lost his play, and it's not safe to be near the water in rainy days. Li Yinzhou took two steps closer and was about to shout, but seeing the child's familiar figure and extravagant clothes, he took two steps closer to look at him. profile.

With sharp eyebrows and thin nose bridge, it really is Sun Quan.

A nine-year-old boy is like a bamboo shoot after the rain. He grows taller and taller day by day, and gradually loses his childishness and grinds out his joints.Leaving aside the pretentious sophistication of the past, it seems more mature and stable.

He has seen Sun Quan stand with his hands behind his back, or sit with his head held high. Although he is not as energetic as his elder brother, he still has the stubborn backbone of a young boy.

, never humble nor overbearing, unwilling to lose.

It was the first time I saw him squatting with his back bowed, his depression almost overflowing his back.

Sun Quan looked at the circles of scattered water patterns, without turning his head: "Mother invited your master?"

Li Yinzhou didn't want to hide, and walked up to him generously, looking down seemed unfriendly, and it was not easy to squat down with the things in his arms. After thinking about it, he simply sat down and put the things stuffed by the servants on his lap.

The young master of the Sun family is so frustrated, he must know something inside.

The reflections of the two people gathered in the undulating waves, and then disappeared, and the blurred human faces in the dim water light became fragmented.

Li Yinzhou said: "Yes, I came to invite you in the evening. I was afraid there was something important, so I came here without asking."

Sun Quan was silent.

Compared with a year ago, he has also gradually learned to suppress his thoughts, and his eyes have a strong cold look, like clouds before the accumulated rain, temporarily covering up the turmoil in his heart.

Li Yinzhou didn't say a word either.

The rain is getting heavier, and the thin sound of water is densely ringing one after another, like an abacus fiddled with by the sky, endlessly noisy.

He waited for a long time, but Sun Quan still didn't speak, feeling a little uneasy, turned his head to look——

One after another, raindrops slid down the young boy's bright red eyes, blurring the sharp outlines.

After a long time, the other party's suppressed vibrato disappeared into the rain curtain.

"We're leaving."

Li Yinzhou was a little surprised, but he was not defenseless. The Sun family was invited by Zhou Yu to live in Lujiang temporarily, how could Qianlong be trapped in the pool forever.

But it is not clear that it was the turning point of that incident that broke their peaceful life.

But judging from the current state of the opponent, it is not so much a turning point as a surprise change.This passing transition in Sun Quan's life is a painful metamorphosis.

Sun Quan didn't wait for him to ask, and turned his face, his eyes were bloodshot, staring at him with eyes like a trapped animal, his brows frowning slightly trembling.

After a long time, he opened his teeth forcefully, and his voice was like a sieve: "Will you walk with us?"

----------

On the other side of Lujiang City, in the official school known as Xiaohou School, the students filled the inch of land under the eaves.

The rain is so heavy, and the umbrellas covered with silk and silk are like decorations. Although descendants of aristocratic families here are all studying here, it is not uncommon to see down-and-out collaterals who are closely related to each other. Such expensive utensils are not available to every family.

It's too stuffy to stay in the house, and the rain is so loud that the students who are ready to move can only huddle together like ants, looking at the house from a distance through the low water curtain under the eaves, counting on the teacher's help.

The servant brought the coir raincoat in the rain.

After all, when school was over, even the master simply put down his books and went to a quiet place to avoid the hustle and bustle.

Gu Shao and Lu Xun were not among the hustle and bustle.

The noisy boy on weekdays is surprisingly calm when he is making such a fuss, and he happens to be able to throw away his textbook and secretly read two ancient books. Unfortunately, under the gloomy and oppressive sky, the vigorous font also looks a little messy. Gu Shao touched Lu Xun's shoulder : "Ayan, haven't you read this book before, do you know what this word means?"

He gestured with his fingers for a long time, but he didn't get any response. He was complaining in his heart, but he saw his brother who was not related by blood locked his eyebrows and his eyes were frozen.

He thinks he still knows Lu Xun very well. Ah Yan's smile is not really a good thing, but his expression of worry is definitely the bad news of the sky falling.

"I felt strange this morning. My grandfather was always diligent, but today he asked you to ask about his illness. Is he seriously ill?" Gu Shao only had this inference.

It was only then that Lu Xun realized that he existed, and turned his eyes to the outside lightly, keeping his worries in his heart, without showing any trace: "It's nothing serious."

"Impossible!" Gu Shao gritted his teeth, knocked on the left and right seats with a scroll, and sulked at Lu Xun's side face, "The little girl didn't come today, and the little old man Sun Quan didn't see him, even you Everyone is frowning, where is the sky falling, do you need you to mend it?"

Lu Xun ignored him and just stared at the unusually flood-like sky, as if he wanted to see through the stratus clouds and see the vault above the clouds.

When Gu Shao was almost angry, he said softly: "That's right, a piece of the sky has fallen."

Gu Shao could hardly utter a breath, holding the scroll and widening his eyes, carefully pondering the meaning of these words.

But he couldn't think of a specific name, so he could only urge him to say, "Stop playing charades, who the hell is it?"

Just as Lu Xun was about to open his mouth, he heard a knocking sound by the window. He turned his gaze away, and suddenly saw a pair of slender eyes and a pair of cold pupils.

Gu Shao almost didn't jump up: "You, you, Zhou! Why are you still in Lujiang?"

The matter of the Cold Food Festival happened last year. Although there was nothing wrong with the officials this week, Gu Shao never thought that he would have the guts to stay under Lu Kang's nose for another year!

Lu Xun stopped Gu Shao's exclamation with a rare sharp look, and it took only a moment to see that all the students outside had dispersed, and the vast world was empty and deserted.

Zhou Guanren's eyes wandered back and forth between Gu Shao and Lu Xun.

Lu Xun pushed aside the book on the table with his hands
