It's Shadow Guard and Bai Yueguang [Rebirth]

Fu Shijiu pulled out his long sword from the tree trunk, and looked back at the village engulfed in flames.

The epidemic more than ten years ago has come back again, and this time the government seems to have found out that it was caused by the plague of rats.The government ordered them to burn down all the villages affected by the disease. As for those who are still lingering in the epidemic, they will be given a happy life.

Of course, the government would not do the murder and arson in person, so they entrusted Yaoyuemen.

Even though more than ten years have passed, Fu Shijiu still thinks of the day when he was a child, seeing the village full of corpses, and the shock and panic of his parents dying in front of him.

"Brother!"

Facing the flames in a daze, Fu Shijiu felt a figure leaping down beside him, and the sound from the wooden limb was very crisp, as if it was about to break.

"What's the matter? Senior brother always kills people and never turns back. He will stare at the scene of the crime in a daze. This is the first time we have seen each other."

"It's nothing." Fu Shijiu withdrew his sword.

What happened when he was a child has always been a psychological haze, and he has never told anyone about it.Except for the master who rescued him, the other fellows don't know where he came from before, not even the twenty juniors who have the closest relationship with him.From his behavior and his love for books, most of his classmates speculate that he is a young man from a declining scholarly family.

"The villages in the east have also been dealt with. There are no living things left. The poultry and livestock are buried in a pit, and the graves where people are buried are marked so that people from the government can come here to erect monuments in the future." After Xiao Shi finished speaking, he adjusted the fireworks. Smoked black prosthetics.

Prosthetic limbs are made of wood, which inevitably causes problems in the field of fire.

"Yeah. Pack up your weapons, we're going to enter the city." Fu Shijiu didn't notice the strangeness of his junior's prosthetic limb, so he looked away.

The two of them washed their bodies and weapons with the boiled soup before going on the road together.

On the way, Fu Shijiu remembered that some time ago, the master seemed to have said that there was a palace errand assigned to Xiaoshi.

What it was specifically, Master refused to say, and they were not allowed to ask.

It happened to be out today, Fu Shijiu thought for a moment, and then said, "By the way, a few days ago, Master said that he would send you to Beijing? It is said that he is going to accept an errand from the royal family?"

"Well," Xiao Yan didn't hide it, "it seems to be His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, what is his name... Yi Lai? According to the master, he entered the palace as a shadow guard to monitor his movements and report to His Majesty from time to time. When necessary... ...Maybe you need to do it yourself." After finishing speaking, the little scorpion seemed to realize something, and immediately explained, "When I first started, the master took me into the palace and met him. Compared with strangers, it is easier to get in touch with. In addition, I Born with a disability, it is easy for people to relax their vigilance, so they gave me this errand. Anyway, there is no lucrative job, otherwise I would not give it to me."

Fu Shijiu: "Then from now on, won't I be able to see you often—"

He hadn't finished speaking when he saw the junior brother who was standing upright just now, his right leg suddenly collapsed, and his center of gravity was out of balance.

"Little Shijiu!" Fu Shijiu didn't bother to speak, and hurriedly grabbed his junior brother by the collar and lifted him up, "Are you feeling unwell?"

"Prosthetic, the prosthetic is broken..." Little Twenty's throat was strangled. Although he could not fall down, the feeling of suffocation was not much better than falling to the ground. "Brother let go and I will be healthy."

Fu Shijiu hurriedly squatted down.

Sure enough, the originally good wood was burnt black and broke in half from the middle.

Looking at the severed limbs so directly, Xiao Eran was somewhat embarrassed, but he had nowhere to hide, so he could only cough softly, "I can barely make it by jumping, and I am looking for a carpenter in the city to repair it. It's dark, our horses have been killed in the plague village..."

"I'll carry you." Fu Shijiu interrupted without waiting for his junior brother to finish speaking.

Hearing this sentence, Xiao Shi was taken aback.

"Come up. Jumping and walking is slow and tiring," Fu Shijiu added, seeing that his junior was not moving, "Hurry up. Didn't you often carry you when you were young? Come up."

"When I was young, I weighed less than I do now—"

Fu Shijiu didn't wait for him to finish, and directly grabbed his left arm and forcibly pulled it up on his back.

The weight on his back is actually very light. After all, he lacks an arm and a leg compared to ordinary people. Even when he grows up, he can't sink anywhere.

Seeing that his senior brother had no dislike on his face, Xiao Yan felt a little relieved, and relaxed his body and lay on his senior brother's back.

He remembered the last time when he lay on his senior brother's back, the two of them were still at the age of children. In a blink of an eye, the senior brother was already close to an adult, but his face was a little immature.

On the other hand, he still looked like he hadn't grown up, and was half as tall as his senior brother.

"Little Shijiu, if you go to the capital like this, will you not see you for a long time?" Fu Shijiu asked after a moment of silence.

"Well," Xiao Yan's voice was muffled, as if he was also very unhappy, "I don't want to leave senior brother. And it is said that the prince is not very young and has a bad temper, although he was very bad-tempered when he was young... But I will try to give it to you as often as possible. The senior brother wrote a letter, trying to complete the task as soon as possible, and come back to reunite with the senior brother."

Fu Shijiu: "Then remember to leave the address to me. I will visit you when I have the opportunity."

He and Xiao Hei grew up together, and walked along with each other, as close as brothers.The emotional fill that Xiao Shi gave him replaced the emptiness of being unaccompanied, and it was also the only consolation after his blood-stained numbness.

Having witnessed the death of his parents in front of his own eyes, and many of his fellow disciples died in the line of duty during the assassination, he couldn't imagine that these things would happen to Xiao Shi.

"If you are being bullied or feel that your life is in danger, don't bear it. Tell me, don't talk about the prince, even the emperor will have his head chopped off. Cut off first and play later. Whether the master agrees or not, even if it is Master, I have to rebel, anyway, you can't do anything."

Hearing this, Xiao Hen smiled, "It will be fine. Ordinary people can't kill me. At most, life is more difficult. Brother, remember to bring me some sugar water and snacks when you come to visit the prison."

"Cheat food and drink." Fu Shijiu glanced at it.

Xiao Shi didn't deny it either, but just laughed a few more times.

Night Breeze was not gentle, and Shazi's face hurt a little.

When entering the city, Fu Shijiu felt that the junior brother behind him had fallen asleep.

He is 19 years old this year, and he still has unlimited expectations for his future life.In fact, Fu Shijiu had envied the intimacy between the senior brother and the master since he was a child. The master has a moody temper, but the senior brother has always been as gentle as water and has never been in a hurry.

After passing the weak crown and being able to freely enter and leave the teacher's school...he also wanted to recognize Xiao Shi as his righteous brother.After the little twenty passed the weak crown and left the teacher's school, they lived together like a master and a big brother.

After dealing with the epidemic, Fu Shijiu sent Xiao Shian to the suburbs of Beijing, and then returned to the teacher's door to report.

As soon as they parted, Fu Shijiu was thinking about how to find an opportunity in the future to secretly visit this hapless little guy who was acting as a shadow guard for the violent prince.

When I went back to the master's gate, I asked the new junior brothers and sisters, and they all said that the master was at the master's gate, but the gate of the courtyard was closed, and they were not allowed to enter or leave.

Fu Shijiu naturally ignored this prohibition.

Reporting tasks is more important than anything else, this is what his master taught him before.

He crossed the gate of the inner courtyard and went straight to the study.

After knocking on the door, no one opened the door.Fu Shijiu approached and noticed the sounds of fighting and growling in the room, and suddenly became alert.

Could it be... Master was plotted against?

Thinking of this, Fu Shijiu hurriedly tried to break open the door.

However, the door was not locked at all, and it opened with a light push.

The sound seemed to come from underground.

Opening the hidden door of the mural on the wall, Fu Shijiu followed the sound track and walked down the ground step by step.

"Kill me, kill me..." Eldest Brother's voice was crying, whimpering from time to time, "Why did you kill me so far?"

"Brother, why am I willing to harm you? I have nothing but you. My relatives and teachers have left me a long time ago. I have no choice but to..."

Before he finished speaking, there was another restless sound of water.

Fu Shijiu vaguely realized that Master was not killed.

Curiosity drove him forward step by step.

Seeing the senior brother on the couch crying and trembling slightly, his legs were limply hanging on the master's shoulders, his body was covered with scars, his fists were limply hanging on the master's heart time and time again, and there were constant curses in his mouth.

"Hey, drink the medicine, and you won't be sad after drinking it."

"Don't drink..." Before the elder brother finished speaking, the thin mouth pot was stuffed into his mouth first.

Even though the mouth of the pot made him retch, some of the soup was still poured in.

Fu Shijiu didn't dare to look any further, and consciously left this place of right and wrong.

After leaving the inner courtyard, Fu Shijiu pretended that he hadn't entered it before, and sat in the corner suspicious of life, staring at the ground dully.

Master and senior brother, don't they love brothers and sisters?

Will it be like this between siblings?

In panic, Fu Shijiu didn't know why, but suddenly remembered Xiao Shi'an's appearance.

Xiao Hei had been holding back even crying since she was a child. If she cried until she was trembling because of being bullied... Fu Shijiu didn't think about it anymore. Suddenly, a woven bamboo ball hit her head.

He picked up the ball with his backhand, and smashed it back on his junior brother's forehead without saying a word, "You don't have eyes if you don't have the ball?"

Seeing the young junior brother being knocked to the ground, Fu Shijiu looked away in relief.

After a while, he saw the door of the inner courtyard open, and the tall figure of the master stood in front of the door.

"Nineteen, the floor is dirty. The clothes I just cut for you," the man saw Fu Nineteen sitting on the ground, reminded him softly, "You went out a few days ago, and Jingzhong gave me some satin. There are a few moon-white horses. I left you the blue and light water ones, and the dumb woman will send them to you later."

"Thank you, Master." Fu Shijiu got up, "The government's errands have been settled, and the rewards they said will be sent to you. I sent my [-]th brother to the suburbs of Beijing and returned."

"Come in and talk."

Fu Shijiu followed Master into the house.

As he grew up, and he didn't know whether it was an illusion or what, Master's attitude towards him became more and more gentle.

Probably because he was influenced by the big brother, Fu Shijiu thought.

When reporting on the task, Fu Shijiu noticed that the master was frowning and drinking tea continuously.

He didn't ask any more questions, and after the report, he sat quietly.

After sitting for a while, Fu Shijiu saw the man put down the teacup from the corner of his eyes, as if he had something to say.

"Nineteen, there is something... I don't know if I should tell you as a teacher." After a long hesitation, the man opened his mouth.

"Master, tell me." Fu Shijiu hurriedly answered.

"In the past few days, you have studied more with Mr. Accountant. Take care of the bookkeeping and the internal affairs of the teacher, and you don't need to go out for the task for the time being." The man spoke in a very dignified tone.

Fu Shijiu realized the abnormality of his master, and quickly asked, "What's wrong?"

When he was picked up, he was told that one day he would kill people for a living.As for reading, it was only for him to read and write. He secretly bought the serious books and medical books behind his master's back and with a small sum of money.

"One day when your senior brother leaves, you may have to take care of Yaoyuemen's affairs."

Eldest brother... let's go?

In Fu Shijiu's impression, the senior brother's legs had been unable to move for a long time in the past few years, and he suddenly realized that maybe the master meant that the senior senior brother would not live long.

"You, what do you mean?" Fu Shijiu panicked, "Let's not say that senior brother will be in good health, even if it is true...the master is still there, why should he inherit the sect to me?"

The man didn't answer, just sighed and rubbed his temples with his hands.

"Master, what's bothering you, you can tell my disciples to listen, don't be impulsive." Seeing the master sighing, Fu Shijiu panicked instantly.

The scene where Master picked him up was still as clear as yesterday.

Back then, that man was full of vigor and was not moved by any human affairs.But there is a trace of tenderness in the ruthless and cold-blooded, and he is his savior.

Now the master who saved him and raised him is trapped by love and even wants to die, how could he not stop him?

"Master?"

"That's right, I forgot that you don't want to inherit the master's sect. After the weak crown, you want to leave the Yaoyue gate and recognize Xiao Shi as a righteous brother and go out to live independently, right?"

Fu Shijiu paused for a moment when his mind was poked.

How did Master see it?

"I guessed right. Sure enough, Zhu'er is the same as when I was a child. I can't hide things in my heart," the man said with a bitter smile. "Over the years, most of the apprentices will eventually fly high, but they didn't expect this The day came so quickly—”

"Master, I never thought of leaving you." Fu Shijiu quickly retorted.

After refuting, he quickly changed into a kneeling position, and devoutly put his head on the man's feet, "Master picked me up and raised me, so I can live to this day. Even though I grew up with my [-]th junior brother, my friendship is not as good as it is." For your gratitude and love, if Master needs me to stay in the sect, I will stay here, I just hope that Master will not have anything to worry about..."

After finishing speaking, Fu Shijiu added another sentence, "I will try my best to heal the leg of senior brother, so as not to make Master sad."
