Song of Less Danger

Later, Zheng Laoge and Taozhu chatted for a long time. When talking about the immortal, Zheng Laoge mentioned that Meng Ran also went to Qingshan to look for the immortal, but he never found it, so he simply stayed there.Master told him about this when he came back, saying that he left the house they used to live in to Meng Ran.

Tao listened to them one by one, and murmured, "No wonder."

"how?"

"Nothing." Tao Zhu thought about it and said, "Maybe as you said, the immortal grows underground and is extremely difficult to find, and there are often wild beasts around, so it is easy to be eaten. Blooms at certain times of the year and are short-lived."

But if he can't find the immortal again for a while, what will happen to Shen Zhan's illness?Zheng Liaoge didn't think too much, and gave Taozhu the medicine in his hand, "You take my fairy first, and give it to Shen Zhan to drink."

"Are you willing to give such a precious medicine to others? And... it's still the Nie family."

"If you can make the first one, you can make the second one." Zheng Liaoge said with a smile, "Besides, Shen Zhan treats my brother..."

He didn't know how to go on.Ever since he learned about Shen Zhan's past, his feelings towards this person have become complicated.Shen Zhan was poisoned by a poisonous father since he was a child. How could he kill people voluntarily?The most important thing is that he has been carrying it since he was a child, and he neither died of Gu poisoning nor hurt his brother.

Zheng Liaoge thought silently, if he wasn't born with a strong body and a firm mind, he probably wouldn't be able to withstand the Gu poison.If Shen Zhan hadn't been poisoned, what would he have looked like?

Will he be like his brother, cold, gentle and strong?

A ray of sunlight fell through the window in the morning, and Zheng Tingxue woke up.

He tried to get up, but was held down by an arm.Turning around, she saw Shen Zhan sleeping next to him, hugging him and enjoying the fragrance.

Zheng Tingxue was speechless, took Shen Zhan's arm away, and sat up.Shen Zhan was woken up by him, and lazily followed him up, "Xiaoxue, why is it so early."

This person climbed onto the bed several times without authorization, and refused to change after repeated admonitions, so Zheng Tingxue let him go and said, "You don't mind being crowded with such a small bed."

"Squeezing with Xiaoxue, that's not called squeezing." Shen Zhan leaned on him with a smile, put his arms around his waist, and whispered softly in his ear, "It's called lingering."

When the breath of the two touched the skin, a warm and familiar touch hit, and the body's instinct surpassed the vague memory fragments, which made Zheng Tingxue slightly stunned.During his momentary stupefaction, Shen Zhan lifted his collar and groped inside.

"..." Zheng Tingxue held Shen Zhan's wrist, "Don't push yourself too far."

Shen Zhan smiled, stroked the position of his heart with his fingertips, and withdrew his hand gracefully.

"No scar." He murmured in a low voice, tightening his arms around Zheng Tingxue, pressing his chest against his back, "Nothing... that's great."

His breath was cold, touching Zheng Tingxue's ears.From the voice to the hand caressing the body, everything made Zheng Tingxue confused and familiar.Shen Zhan's hand slid into his clothes, and his fingertips caused the skin to shudder, like an instinctive reaction.

Zheng Tingxue grabbed Shen Zhan's hand, "What scar?"

Shen Zhan didn't answer, but just tilted his head and whispered in his ear, "Xiaoxue, do you like the feeling of me holding you?"

Zheng Tingxue remained silent.Shen Zhan laughed and lowered his voice, "We have done more in-depth things, Xiaoxue, do you want to try?"

His voice was soft and gentle, but his eyes were fixed on Zheng Tingxue's side face without blinking.The next moment Zheng Tingxue left his arms, lifted the quilt and got out of bed, and the faint fragrance dissipated.

Zheng Tingxue took the clothes, put them on, and tied the belt with her back facing Shen Zhan, the imperceptible blush on the tips of her ears had dissipated.He put on his clothes and said calmly, "I'm going out."

Shen Zhan leaned lazily by the bed, looked at him with disheveled clothes and smiled, "If Xiaoxue doesn't take me with her when she goes out, I'm going to lose my temper."

"Go to Zheng's house." Zheng Tingxue said, "Go and see where I used to live."

Zheng Tingxue and Shen Zhan came to Zheng's house together.The dilapidated courtyard is lonely and full of fallen leaves.

Zheng Tingxue stood under the plum tree with new leaves, looking up at the leaves.Shen Zhan stood by and looked at him.

"You used to practice sword here." Shen Zhan said, "I sat under the tree and waited for you to finish practicing, and then we went to study and eat together."

"Didn't you practice with me?"

Shen Zhan lowered his eyes and looked into Zheng Tingxue's eyes, "I have to hide in front of you to lower your vigilance. And at that time, I was adapting to the Gu worm in my body, and my body was indeed weak."

Zheng Tingxue said, "If the Gu raised by Nie Tagu is really that powerful, and you have been planted with Gu since childhood, it stands to reason that you will either be crazy or dead now."

Shen Zhan turned his head slightly, focused his eyes on Zheng Tingxue, and smiled, "Maybe Xiaoxue should ask Meng Ran about this matter."

"I was supposed to be the one who was going to die." Shen Zhan mentioned Meng Ran, his face gradually turned cold, "But 13 years ago at the foot of Xianbei Mountain, in that medical center..."

He didn't finish his sentence, as if he didn't want to say any more.Zheng Tingxue felt that the following content was very important, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Shen Zhan recovered his smile and asked him instead, "Didn't Xiaoxue live with Mr. Meng for 13 years? How did Mr. Meng tell you?"

Although he was smiling, there was no warmth in his eyes, even colder than when he was not smiling.

"He hid something from me. Now it seems that many things are lying to me." Zheng Tingxue said, "He wanted me to stay in Zhongnan Mountain for the rest of my life. I don't know why. I wanted to ask him to clarify, but now I don't know where he went."

He continued to ask, "What happened to the medical center under Xianbei Mountain 13 years ago?"

Shen Zhan seemed amused by his rare and curious appearance, and said with a smile, "Xiaoxue really wants to know?"

In the past, Shen Zhan always answered his questions, but this time, for some reason, he teased him slowly and refused to speak.Zheng Tingxue looked at him, and Shen Zhan also looked at him, with deep and focused eyes, as if yearning for every inch of his body, always imprinted in his heart.

Shen Zhan took out a folded small square from his arms, and unfolded it. It was a piece of red paper-cut, which looked very old, with traces of clumsy repairs and a line of words that could only be seen clearly upon careful inspection.

[Zheng Tingxue gives Shen Zhan a lotus pond].

Shen Zhan put the paper-cut in Zheng Tingxue's hand, took a jade pendant from his neck, and put it in his palm as well.

Then he approached and whispered to him, "You left me a paper-cut and a jade pendant, and you want me to live. In the next 13 years, you will never see me again."

Zheng Tingxue raised his eyes, and their eyes met in the wind.The past is like a distant flying flower blowing away from the void, flying past Zheng Tingxue's eyes, making him vaguely grasp something.Shen Zhan's eyes are shockingly beautiful, as if he has always looked at him like this since a long time ago.

The courtyard door was pushed open with a creak.The two turned their heads and saw Shaowei walking in with a knife in hand, stepping on a withered leaf.

"Zheng Tingxue."

He read these three words and looked at the man in front of him.That familiar white figure was a huge black shadow engraved in his heart, which made him sleepless day and night.

The boy's voice was restrained, but full of exhaustion and unspeakable struggle, "...Let's make a break today."

Inside the porcelain shop, Zheng Liaoge and Taozhu got together again, with scrolls spread out in front of them.

"Since the master took the medicine formulated according to this prescription, not only his health has improved, but his temperament has also changed." Tao Zhu said to Zheng Liaoge, "When I first arrived at the master's side, the master's spirit was very unstable. Crazy."

Zheng Liaoge quickly looked around and whispered, "Don't speak ill of people so loudly."

"I didn't exaggerate a word." Tao Zhu said helplessly, "He dreamed day and night, chanting 'Xiaoxue', 'Xiaoxue', went crazy and killed his own family, and threw the body into the valley to burn. He didn't drink I advised him to take the medicine, but he wanted to kill me, so I said, 'Xiaoxue wants you to drink it, don't you want it?', and he drank the medicine."

Zheng Laoge was completely speechless, so he could only ask, "What happened next?"

"After drinking the medicine, the madness of the master gradually faded away, and he became almost like an ordinary person. But although the symptoms on the master's body were alleviated, they could not be eradicated. I thought my medicine and treatment methods were still flawed, so I have asked many masters, but they have no way to deal with this rare Gu poison. Or if there is a way, it is a fantasy."

"any solution?"

"The Gu poison is planted in the master's heart." Tao Zhu said, "To eradicate it is to change the heart."

"This...how is this possible?"

"Yes, that's why it's the Arabian Nights."

Zheng Liaoge stood up, frowning, paced back and forth thinking, "No, no matter how poisonous Gu worms are, they are still worms, and every thing born by God will inevitably fall again. How can a worm not be killed?"

"Master's Gu poison has been planted for too long, and the poison has already permeated his whole body. If he drank the medicine earlier, maybe he can still..."

Zheng Laoge's eyes fell on Liuli on the table.The red Gu worms inside had grown a lot, and were devouring the worms he had just fed in this morning.

He looked at the Gu worms in the glass.Seemingly determined, he picked up the glass, "Shen Zhan might have seen that kind of Gu worm in his body, go ask him first."

Tao Zhu asked, "Ask what?"

"I'm going to give it a try." Zheng Laoge said, "Try what this bug is."

He picked up Liuli and was about to run out, and Tao Zhu was also curious to keep up, when he heard his master's loud voice downstairs: "Apprentice——"

Zheng Laoge opened the door and looked downstairs, "Master, what's wrong?"

"Your brother beat up that kid Shaowei!" Qu Hechen said in a tone that he didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement, "Hurry down and show it to others—hey."

Zheng Liaoge ran downstairs in a hurry, only to see Qu Hechen walking in with Shaowei on his shoulders. The boy's mouth was bleeding, his arms and legs were injured, he was supported by Qu Hechen like a lost dog, and he was still unwilling to enter the door. He was dragged in by Qu Hechen.

Zheng Tingxue and Shen Zhan walked in slowly from behind.Zheng Tingxue was expressionless, while Shen Zhan was smiling.

"What's going on?" Zheng Liaoge didn't care about other things for a while, and came to check on Shaowei's injuries.Fortunately, it looked like it was bleeding, but it was actually not serious.

Taozhu brought the medicine bag, Zheng Liaoge naturally took the cotton cloth to help Shaowei wipe it, raised his head to meet Shaowei's gaze, and paused.

"...Taozhu, you come." Zheng Laoge stood up, stuffed something into Taozhu's hand, and motioned for him to get it.Tao Zhu was puzzled, but still sat down and treated Shaowei's wound.

Shaowei took a deep breath, but still held back and didn't make a sound.

"Brother." Zheng Liaoge called Zheng Tingxue in a low voice, and looked at him reproachfully, meaning how could you bully a child.

Zheng Tingxue had no choice but to explain: "He made the first move."

Shen Zhan said with a smile, "A little trash is very courageous."

Shaowei said angrily, "You...!"

"Hey, good good good good good good good good good good good good good." Qu Hechen raised his hand aside, "It's good to have a fight, let it out and feel good."

Zheng Tingxue stood aside with folded arms, looked at Shaowei for a while, and suddenly asked, "Who taught you martial arts?"

Shaowei refused to talk to him, so Zheng Laoge answered for him: "Ale is really his master."

Unexpectedly, Zheng Tingxue's next sentence would be, "You don't need to recognize this person as your master anymore."

Everyone was taken aback, Shaowei said, "Why do you..."

"The martial arts routines he taught you are all against your own internal strength." Zheng Tingxue replied flatly, "If you continue to practice in the same way as before, you will be useless."
