old grace

Fu Chuan let off steam in the alley, the alcohol dissipated, and he became sober.

Xie Qinghe felt sorry for him, supported and hugged him all the way, and comforted him in a low voice.Coaxing Fu Chuan to feel itchy in his heart, he walked faster and hooked Xie Qinghe's fingers with his fingers, and his eyes were full of hints: "I'm tired. I want to go back to rest earlier. It would be better if the elder brother slept with me."

At this time, Fu Chuan was going to drag him to somersault in the street, Xie Qinghe had to seriously consider whether to cover his face and accompany the little junior brother crazy for a while.

"Well, good. Go to bed early." Xie Qinghe also rushed a step, wanting to take Fu Chuan home.

Fu Chuan's emotions have always come and gone quickly, he dragged Xie Qinghe back to his sojourn home quickly, probably because he felt that the old couple is still so anxious and lustful, and he even dragged the senior brother to run home to be affectionate and tender. A little embarrassed, but couldn't help laughing.

The study room where the two of them lived was originally the old man of a wealthy businessman lived alone, and there was another door opened by the wall, so it was very convenient to enter and exit.

At this time, it was already late to go home, and there was still an old slave waiting for the door.

After Fu Chuan knocked on the door, he first said a word of hard work to the old slave who was waiting for the door, and gave him a tael of silver as a reward, saying: "Old man, go and rest. My brother and I will rest now, and we won't go out tonight." .”

The old servant stretched out his wrinkled face with a smile when he got the reward, and graciously held a lamp to light the way for the two of them.

At this time, although lamps and candles were not as precious as in ancient times, lighting the lamps and cooking oil was also an expense, not to mention that the lamps were easy to leak if left unattended, no matter how big the family business was, the lamps were only lit when there were people.Xie Qinghe and Fu Chuan were not at home, so the living room of the study was pitch black.

The old slave led the way with a lamp, said auspicious words, and asked the distinguished guest if he wanted hot soup and food, and the master told him to serve him well.

Fu Chuan also didn't want to be disturbed: "No need. This is the rest."

Xie Qinghe said suddenly: "I'm bringing the lamp, the old man stays behind."

He speaks like a spring breeze with a hint of gentleness, but there is an unquestionable toughness that makes people dare not be verbose.

The old slave wanted to be polite, but he didn't dare to say anything. Fu Chuan also followed Xie Qinghe's gaze and saw the figure in front of him, and quickly said to the old slave: "Yes, the old man stays. Please go back."

The old slave didn't know what happened, anyway, the two distinguished guests didn't let him go forward, so he politely took his leave.

Xie Qinghe held a lamp in his hand.

The lamp oil has faded, and the light of the fire is weak.

Taking advantage of this weak light, Fu Chuan turned his head to look at the face of the elder brother, and felt that the expression of the elder brother was really unprecedented.

No matter how stupid he was, he knew that there was a conflict between Xie Qinghe and Yun Chao.

Eldest brother took back A Shou from Yun Chao, and he never mentioned Yun Chao's whereabouts. When he got home, he saw Yun Chao's elder brother kneeling at the door...but he didn't know what happened, and Fu Chuan didn't dare to say anything about it. Randomly interrupted.

In Fu Chuan's mind, the eldest brother is not an unreasonable person.It must be because Brother Yun Chao didn't do something to offend Eldest Brother.

——After you figure out what's going on, you can intercede slowly.

"Why is brother kneeling here? You don't even light a lamp."

Fu Chuan tried his best to make the atmosphere more relaxed, stepped forward two steps to check Yun Chao's expression without any trace, and confirmed that Yun Chao was not injured or particularly negative and heavy emotions. After a little relief, he turned around and asked Xie Qinghe: "Weather How embarrassing it is to be seen in such a cold place and living in another place. Big Brother, please let Brother Yunchao come in and talk?"

Yun Chao didn't dare to enter the door, it must be the elder brother who wanted to expel him.As long as Yun Chao can be brought in, everything will be fine.

Xie Qinghe did not answer immediately.

Fu Chuan was secretly worried, and Yun Chao couldn't help but silently pressed the sword ring on his finger, clenched slightly.

After a while, Xie Qinghe walked over slowly, seeing that he seemed to go straight in, Yun Chao didn't dare to speak, and lowered his head sadly.

Unexpectedly, Xie Qinghe only took a step into the door, and the voice came out: "Come in."

Fu Chuan quickly helped Yun Chao, and exchanged eyes with him in concern, only to find that Yun Chao was just lowering his head and pinching the sword ring in his hand, not intending to communicate with him.What happened?Fu Chuan lifted the curtain and entered with Yun Chao.

Xie Qinghe has already put Ah Shou into the nest and is lighting the lamp.

Fu Chuan stepped forward to help light up a few lamps, and placed them everywhere, and the room was instantly lit up.

"It's getting late, what do you have to say, hurry up and say it." Seeing that Yun Chao was about to kneel down again, Xie Qinghe frowned and said, "No need to bow down."

This sentence not only stunned Yun Chao, but also shocked Fu Chuan who was preparing tea.

Ordinary people regard being worshiped as an authority and glory, but for Xie Qinghe, worshiping is a responsibility.After being worshiped by others, one must fulfill the responsibilities of seniors and masters.When he said that he was not allowed to bow down, he probably meant the same thing as "I don't want to care about you".

Fu Chuan thought that if he got Yun Chao in, he would be fine if he had something to say, but he didn't know that what Xie Qinghe wanted was to let people in, make it clear and leave.

This is not a question of right and wrong.Fu Chuan hurriedly came out to help intercede: "Senior brother, calm down. I don't know what wrong thing Yun Chao did to offend senior brother. It's just that we have been together for so many years, not to mention the hard work, and I ask senior brother to see it for the sake of years of love." Forgive me a thing or two."

Xie Qinghe shook his head and said: "If he did something wrong, I will naturally punish him. However, he did nothing wrong."

Fu Chuan was taken aback.

Yun Chao also couldn't help raising his head, looking at him hesitantly.

"In these years, you and I have treated each other as a master and servant, and I did send you as a sword servant. In fact, both of you and I know that it is your wish to recognize the master, and it is also your wish to deny the master. You have always You are free. You follow me because you feel that you have nowhere to go, and you feel at ease when you follow me. Now you have doubts about me, and I am no longer the object of your trust. Instead, you have to be wary of me again and again—why should you Embarrass yourself?" Xie Qinghe asked.

Yun Chao vaguely knew that this was not the case, but he was unable to refute Xie Qinghe's remarks.

When he met the white-haired fox, he just didn't want to bring it to Xie Qinghe.He wanted to hide both Sisi and White Fox.

In the past, when encountering unsolvable things, Yun Chao's first thought was to find the master.He trusted Xie Qinghe extremely.

However, regarding the issue of Sisi and the white fox, Yun Chaoming knew that Xie Qinghe would never hurt the innocent and harmless white fox, and knowing that Xie Qinghe could heal Sisi who was seriously injured, he still chose to secretly take care of Sisi who was possessed by the fox , unwilling to expose their existence.

——What is the concern behind this, Yun Chao didn't think deeply about it.

However, he himself knew very well that he just didn't want Xie Qinghe to know the existence of Sisi and White Fox.

Instead of relying on trust, we are on guard again and again.

So, the master doesn't want me anymore.

Unable to refute, Yun Chao stared stubbornly at Xie Qinghe for a long time, then suddenly turned and went out.

Fu Chuan never thought that Yun Chao would leave in such a way, his astonishment and shock could not match his sadness and reluctance at this time.

He likes Yunchao very much, for him, Yunchao is an extremely reliable and gentle senior friend, in the past Yunchao traveled thousands of miles to deliver letters for him and Xie Qinghe, and occasionally met in the rivers and lakes, Yunchao was also happy to draw his sword and fight for him.Usually also always play with him, caring and loving him everywhere.

In Fu Chuan's mind, this friendship will always last until 200 years later, before life and death.

Who knew it would suddenly collapse today!He couldn't believe what life would be like without Yun Chao by his side!

"Senior brother." Fu Chuan eagerly pulled Xie Qinghe's hand, "Can't you just coax him? If he has any doubts, senior brother can explain him. Why is it like this? I Go ask him to come back, Eldest Senior Brother, talk to him, okay?"

Seeing that Xie Qinghe was not moved at all, Fu Chuan knelt down so anxiously that his eyes were red: "Brother, if you intend to keep him, how can you not keep him?"

"Stupid boy." Xie Qinghe wiped away tears for him helplessly, "I coaxed you and kept you by my side because I wanted you to be my Taoist companion and my heir. Shall I be my servant, toiling and laboring, working lowly servants?"

Fu Chuan was blindsided by what he said, always felt that something was wrong, but couldn't tell what was wrong.

Xie Qinghe is nothing more than arrogant and arrogant, to be his servant has to be determined, love to do things, don't do things.If Yun Chao is suspicious and puzzled, he can take the initiative to confess to him, he will naturally find a way to solve it for Yun Chao.Now that Yun Chao cuts off without saying a word, Xie Qinghe refuses to explain to him now that there is a fact of estrangement and concealment.

"But I think..." Fu Chuan pointed to the door, "Brother Yun Chao may still like to be the servant of the senior brother."

Yun Chao did not leave.

He knew he was in the wrong, and he couldn't say no to Xie Qinghe. After turning around and going out, he knelt down on the side of the porch.

——He was very sensible, he didn't nail it to the door, let out the access passage, and knelt in an inconspicuous corner.

Anyway, both Fu Chuan and Xie Qinghe are monks with excellent ears, even if he finds a hide-and-seek position and kneels, the two of them in the room will never miss his presence.

Playing tricks in front of Xie Qinghe, Xie Qinghe deliberately ignored him.

As far as Yun Chao's cultivation base and physique are concerned, let alone kneeling overnight, even kneeling for ten days and ten nights will not cause any problems.

Taking advantage of the situation, Fu Chuan hugged Xie Qinghe and bit his ear: "Just coax him. Or... how can I sleep?"

Yun Chao is also a monk with sharp eyes and ears.He was kneeling by the porch, sleeping normally would not hinder anything, but when Fu Chuan rolled out of the alley, he pulled Xie Qinghe to imply that he was rushing home in the middle of the night to "sleep" well, how could he sleep like this? ? !

Fu Chuan has always been very serious about keeping Yun Chao.

Xie Qinghe looked at the still faintly red eyes of the little junior brother, and asked: "You can't leave him like that?"

Fu Chuan nodded earnestly, and pleaded: "Brother has no intention of abandoning him, and has always wanted to ask for peace. How can senior brother have the heart to drive him out? If there is any misunderstanding, senior senior brother can give him some advice. With my brother's loyalty to senior senior brother I respect you, and I will be willing to apologize to Senior Brother."

"Then you might as well go out and ask him, is there anything he wants to say to me?" Xie Qinghe smiled.

Fu Chuan immediately got up and went out, hurriedly looking for Yun Chao: "Did you hear me, brother?"

Yun Chao was kneeling on the porch separated by a wall, when Xie Qinghe and Fu Chuan were talking in front of the window in the dead of night, Yun Chao could hear them clearly.

He was questioned.

Have something to say?

Even after thinking about it, he still didn't want to leave his master, so he came back and begged for forgiveness.

However, Xie Qinghe wanted to explain all his thoughts and suspicions to him.If you can't explain clearly, you won't let him stay any longer.

How to say this?

Said that the timing of his change of fate was too coincidental?Is it fair to say that I don't know the origin?He said that he thought that the Yaozu would not end well if it fell into Xie Qinghe's hands, and that he wanted to let the white fox guard Sisi to live freely in Xingcheng, and he didn't want them to fall into the eyes of the Hanjiang Sword Sect?

—Can you tell me?Dare you say it?

——He didn't even figure out why he came up with such obscure and deep thoughts.

Yun Chao firmly suppressed these topics that could not be discussed in detail, knowing that Xie Qinghe could hear him, he did not let Fu Chuan pass on the message, and lowered his head and said as clearly as possible: "The master blocked the servants in the small courtyard today. That bit of consonance left on the sword ring, right?"

Xie Qinghe thought to himself, it really came.

He sneered, and admitted openly: "Yes. When I sacrificed the sword ring for you, I secretly tampered with it. As long as you take the sword ring that I sacrificed for you, even if you go to the ends of the world, I will die. know where you are."

Unexpectedly, Yun Chao did not question and denounce him, but said something else: "The servant was lured away by A Shou that day, and fell into the chaotic realm of yin and yang. The master was always worried. After that, he practiced the sword for the servant, Come to prevent the servant from falling into the devil, and secondly, to guard the whereabouts of the servant. The servant understands the truth."

This is Yun Chao's cleverness.

He resolutely didn't mention all kinds of differences with Xie Qinghe, only talked about Xie Qinghe's benefits to him.

——No matter how many problems and contradictions there are, the master treats me so well, how dare I have two hearts?Please forgive me.

There was a long silence in the house.

After a long time, I heard Xie Qinghe say: "It's getting late, go to the inn to feed the horses. Come back tomorrow morning to serve."
