A heartbeat that vibrates in the chest cavity.The sound of water sucking blood.And... the panting that he tried to hide.
The quiet room was so quiet that all the sounds could be heard clearly.
There are leaves falling outside the window, dangling and falling, and swinging to the ground.
Shen Xingcong's arms tensed, and he pushed the person in front of him away: "Enough."
Xiao Lin's forehead slightly covered his face.Her lips were red from the blood she had just tasted.
He licked away the blood on the corner of his mouth and smiled: "Thank you, brother."
Shen Xingcong didn't say much, and put his hands on his shoulders.With a light swipe, the cut marks healed.
I cast a purification spell again, and the remaining blood stains disappeared without a trace.
He quickly put on his clothes, tied his belt and said, "That's the deal, don't go back on your word."
Xiao Lin: "The one who repents is clearly the senior brother."
Shen Xingcong was momentarily at a loss for words: "I, I know. So I gave you blood!"
Once he recalled the scene just now, he felt a little embarrassed.
Strange to say, exchanging blood on weekdays doesn't feel like a big deal.Could it be that they got too close this time?
Leaving aside the strangeness in his heart, he said: "This time the situation is special. In the future, we will still exchange palms."
Xiao Lin looked away and sighed slightly.
"It's no use pretending to be pitiful."
As Shen Xingcong said, he turned and opened the door, just in time to bump into the oncoming Senior Brother Murong.
He was caught off guard and forgot to say hello for a moment.
Murong was still reticent and nodded towards him.
Shen Xingcong returned to his senses: "Mu, hello Senior Brother Murong, are you coming to practice?"
Murong nodded again, and suddenly sensed something was wrong, frowning a little.
Shen Xingcong had cast the barrier of silence just now.I knew it was impossible for this person to hear their conversation, but seeing the expression on the other side, I still couldn't help but feel nervous.
"Brother what happened?"
"You here..." Murong tapped his belt, "Loosen it."
Shen Xingcong lowered his eyes, only then realized that his belt was crooked.Xu Shi was just impatient and didn't pay attention for a while.
He hastened to fasten it again: "Thank you, brother, for reminding me. It must have happened by accident when I stayed at the hotel just now."
Afraid of revealing any flaws, he didn't dare to stay longer.He hurriedly left after saying hello.
I was glad that the person I ran into was Senior Brother Murong.If it was Senior Sister Yunxiu or Senior Brother Yu Fei, I am afraid it would not be so easy to fool.
The former will definitely hold him and educate him for half an hour, and blame him for his disheveled clothes.
The latter will laugh at it.After about half a day, the entire Jingxin Peak knew about it.
Murong was about to go in when he noticed Xiao Lin standing in the room.The other party smiled at him, and then left.
Murong:?
He sniffed and frowned.
The smell of blood?
From Shen Xingcong's point of view, this series of incidents was finally resolved for the time being.
Occasionally, Mu Xiaorou could be seen talking to Xiao Lin.The girl laughed through her tears, and finally she no longer showed her face that was about to cry.
"Ah, Brother Xingcong!"
When Shen Xingcong passed by from a distance, he heard Mu Xiaorou calling him.
He stopped and looked, and saw him running towards him with his skirt lifted.The sun fell on the face, and the bun bounced along with it.
But Xiao Lin stood where he was, and didn't follow up with him, but just looked at this side.
"Xiao Rou." Shen Xingcong withdrew his gaze and looked at the girl in front of him, "What's wrong?"
Mu Xiaorou: "I'm here to thank you."
Shen Xingcong: "Thank you?"
Mu Xiaorou took a few steps closer and lowered her volume: "Brother Xingcong helped me, right? Xiao Lin finally talked to me again now."
"I didn't do anything." Shen Xingcong shook his head, "I've said it all, it's his own weird temper."
"No matter what, I still want to thank you." Mu Xiaorou smiled.
Something bad arose in Shen Xingcong's heart: "Then you treat him now..."
"After listening to brother Xingcong's words that day, I really reflected on it."
Mu Xiaoju said, "Perhaps I shouldn't impose my delusion on others. That day when Xiao Lin kindly rescued me, I thought it was fate and forced him to accept my kindness. This is wrong."
Shen Xingcong didn't expect Mu Xiaorou to take all the responsibility on himself, and his heart skipped a beat: "That's not the case..."
"Don't be comforted, I've already thought about it." Mu Xiaoju said, "Xiao Lin didn't mean anything to me, that's why he backed away before. Thinking about it, it's because I want to pay attention to giving up."
Speaking of this, she seemed a little embarrassed, and lowered her head: "But I am not only puzzled, but also go to his side day after day. It is right to bother me."
"However, I have never regretted it."
As soon as the topic changed, Mu Xiaorou's tone became cheerful again.
"If I hadn't met Xiao Lin, I wouldn't have thought of coming to Jingxin Peak. I met Senior Sister Yunxiu, Senior Brother Murong, Senior Brother Yu Fei. And you...Brother Xingcong."
For Mu Xiaorou, perhaps it was the first time since she came to Jingxin Peak that she felt a sense of belonging.
In the past, when I stayed at Wuchang Peak, I always felt that there were many rules and my hands were tied.Although her fellow disciples treated her very well.But calling her "Master Uncle" always feels too respectful in front of her.Made her feel uncomfortable.
Only Shen Ke'er treated her like an ordinary person.But for some reason, she would always make Shen Ke'er angry for no reason.So she didn't dare to be too presumptuous, and could only follow the other party's temper.
Instead, they came to Jingxin Peak, probably due to the small number of people, and the differences between the same sects are not as clear as those in Wuchang Peak.There will be no preferential treatment because of who has a higher cultivation base or who has a higher seniority.
Senior Sister Yunxiu is strict, but quite rational.Treat all juniors equally and teach them patiently.
Second senior brother Murong is very quiet, even though he doesn't have much contact with them.But occasionally take her, still guide carefully.
Senior Brother Yu Fei is the most responsible.When she is a junior junior sister, take care of everything.
And Shen Xingcong, the only one who started later than her and was older than her.
Unlike Wuchang Peak disciples, she is too humble to her; or because her cultivation is progressing too fast, she occasionally speaks with thorns.
Facing Shen Xingcong, she always felt that she was not facing the same family, but more like the brother next door.
Even though she already had a golden core, the other party was still a foundation builder, yet he took good care of her and spoke softly.
Senior Sister Yunxiu called Shen Xingcong naughty, but she thought it was Brother Xingcong who was lively, cheerful and informal.
Shen Xingcong was ashamed: "What are you saying all of a sudden?"
"Because I want to say what's on my mind before I leave." Mu Xiaorou stuck out her tongue, "In order not to let brother Xingcong catch me crying all the time, thinking that I have been wronged."
Just as Shen Xingcong was about to nod, he suddenly reacted: "Wait, you said you wanted to leave?"
Hearing this suddenly was probably more shocking than hearing the other party coming over before.
Mu Xiaorou waved her hands and explained: "Not right away. It's just that I said before I came here that I want to live in each of the Eight Great Peaks for a period of time. After all, each peak is good at different categories, so I want to learn more."
Shen Xingcong was stunned: "Is that so?"
He thought that the other party was definitely coming for Xiao Lin.
Mu Xiaorou couldn't help but blush: "Boss, I need to find a good speech."
Hearing this, Shen Xingcong couldn't help but laugh.
Mu Xiaorou stomped her feet: "I knew they would laugh at me. That's why I didn't want to say it!"
"No no."
Shen Xingcong just thought it was cute.
It seems that both ordinary people and orthodox monks will do some stupid things when they are in love.
But the person involved didn't think it was cute anymore. He just felt that he was being laughed at and wanted to find a hole to get in.She squirmed and stood on the spot, glanced behind her quickly, and finally couldn't stay any longer.
"Brother Xingcong, I'm leaving first."
Mu Xiaorou ran away holding her skirt.
Shen Xingcong watched him go, then looked at Xiao Lin in the distance.The other party happened to look over, and their eyes met.
Shen Xingcong couldn't help but feel a little pity.If it weren't for the plot of the original novel, just looking at the appearance, these two people are really a match made in heaven.
The love affair between childhood sweethearts, golden boys and jade girls has been talked about since ancient times.
Shen Xingcong approached: "What did you just say?"
Xiao Lin: "She said she was leaving."
"Oh," Shen Xingcong said, "She told me just now."
Xiao Lin: "Brother, can you feel at ease now?"
Peace of mind?
Shen Xingcong hadn't thought about this before, and when Mu Xiaorou suddenly said that he wanted to leave, he felt a little bit reluctant.
But from now on, if Xiao Lin and Mu Xiaorou have nothing to do with each other, then it can be regarded as... peace of mind, right?
He hesitated and nodded.
This episode is finally over.In any case, the two no longer "love at first sight" like the original.
Soon it was a few days before Mu Xiaorou left the peak.In the evening, Mu Xiaorou came here specially and handed Shen Xingcong a sachet.
"Brother Xingcong, I made this myself." Mu Xiaoju said, "I heard from Senior Sister Yunxiu that you can't sit still when you meditate. There are medicinal herbs in it to calm your mind and breath."
Grass leaves are embroidered on the outside of the sachet, which exudes a touch of incense, which makes people feel peaceful.
"I embroidered flowers for Senior Sister Yunxiu. You are men, so it's not suitable to bring flowers. So I changed this." Mu Xiaorou asked timidly, "Do you still like it?"
Shen Xingcong did not expect to receive a gift, and was very happy: "I like it, of course I like it."
He accepted the sachet, "I have a heart."
Mu Xiaorou seemed to be relieved, and said with a smile: "I have been taken care of by everyone in the past few months, which is what I should."
After chatting for a while, she took out another sachet from her bosom and handed it to Shen Xingcong.
"And this... is for Xiao Lin. Brother Xingcong, can you give it to him for me. If I deliver it, I'm afraid he won't accept it."
The style of the sachet is somewhat different, and the pattern on it looks like flowers and grass.It is extremely unfeminine, but a little more cold and solemn, obviously much more refined.
This probably reflects the little girl's thoughtfulness.
Besides, when it comes to giving up, Xiao Lin is still different from other people deep down in his heart, so he can't help but put more thought into it.Only time to heal slowly.
Shen Xingcong sighed in his heart, and took it: "I see."
Anyway, Mu Xiaorou is leaving soon, so it's okay to do this last favor.
Mu Xiaorou looked quite happy and thanked her repeatedly.
When returning to his room at night, Shen Xingcong knocked on Xiao Lin's door.As soon as the other party opened it, he handed over the sachet without saying a word.
Xiao Lin paused, and his eyes fell.
Shen Xingcong: "Mu Xiaorou gave it to you."
"...No wonder."
Xiao Lin said, "The pattern is exquisite, but my brother is clumsy. How could it be my brother who embroidered it?"
At this time, I still have to step on him.
Shen Xingcong: "Even if I know how to embroider, I won't give it to you!"
"Brother, please bring it here." Xiao Lin took the sachet, "Is there anything else?"
Shen Xingcong did not expect Xiao Lin to be so straightforward.I thought it would choke him a few words.
Can't help but startled for a moment: "It's okay."
"Good night, brother."
Xiao Lin closed the door.
Seeing the door close before his eyes, Shen Xingcong touched the tip of his nose.
Forget it, things have been delivered anyway.So be it.
Xiao Lin returned to the room and first sniffed the smell of the sachet.It is recognized that it is a mixture of various spiritual herbs, which is helpful for breathing and absorbing spiritual energy.
Not poisonous.
He casually threw it on the table.
Shen Xingcong's reason for letting him avoid Mu Xiaorou is still unclear.I thought it was related to spiritual root restoration, but now it doesn't seem to be the case.
In the early stage, he was treated coldly, but in the end, the woman's benevolence revoked the agreement.Explain that avoiding or not avoiding Mu Xiaorou is not the point.
It was Mu Xiaorou's "favor" towards him.
Shen Xingcong didn't want this kind of "favor" to happen.Seeing that this tendency disappeared later, he let go.Even the sachet was specially sent this time, probably because he felt that Mu Xiaorou's departure was not a big threat.
Xiao Lin always thought that others always have a purpose in doing things.
Moxiu slaughtered his family for his cultivation; Elder Jingxin saved him for merit.Shen Xingcong was by his side many times before, also because of "the Way of Heaven".
With one's own body, resist the way of heaven.
This point seemed ridiculous to Xiao Lin.It was not possible to say whether it was successful or not.Because the other party finally compromised and promised to repair the spirit root.
Only this time he didn't understand.
Neither for the way of heaven, nor for closeness to the suzerain.
So what exactly is it for?
"I like it." Yu Fei sighed.
He was testing his sword in the open space, when he heard this sentence, Xiao Lin couldn't help but raise his eyes.
Yunxiu scolded: "What are you talking about without thinking?"
"No, isn't Xiaorou leaving? She came to me specially yesterday and gave me this."
Yu Fei emphasized the accent of the word "specially" and took out the sachet from his waist.
"It must be that I have taken care of her a lot on weekdays, which made her secretly agree."
"What are you talking about?" Yunxiu asked blackly, "You know that Xiao Rou is here for Xiao Lin."
Yu Fei retorted: "Then she has stayed in Jingxin Peak for nearly half a year, and she is still not allowed to transfer love?"
Thinking about the incorrect word, she changed her words again, "Isn't she allowed to recognize true love?"
After all, during this period of time, Xiao Lin's indifference towards Mu Xiaorou was obvious to all, and even Yun Xiu felt a little inconceivable.
But this doesn't mean she agrees with Yu Fei's wishful thinking, she opened the hem of her clothes: "If you give a sachet, it means you like it. Could it be that she also falls in love with me?"
Yu Fei took a closer look and suddenly found a sachet hanging on the waist of the senior sister.It was embroidered with flowers, more delicate than his blade of grass pattern.
Yu Fei muttered: "You are a woman, this doesn't count."
"Murong." Yunxiu called calmly.
Murong understood, and said to Yu Fei: "I received it too. It smells so good, I hung it on the bedside."
Yu Fei was shocked.
"Not to mention junior brother." Yunxiu said to Xiao Lin, "Right, you must have received it too."
Xiao Lin smiled, but did not speak.
Yu Fei covered his head, collapsed and knelt down.
Yunxiu patted her shoulder: "If you want to be favored by women, you'd better put down your temper."
Murong watched the interaction between the two in front of him, put away his sword, and looked into the distance.
"Speaking of which, Junior Brother Xing Cong and Junior Sister Xiaorou haven't arrived yet?"
It's a sachet.
Shen Xingcong got up late.Today I planned to test the sword, and was rushing to the open space, but on the way, I stepped on a soft object and almost fell.
Looking down, I saw it was a sachet.
The plain orchid pattern became dusty due to being stained with mud.It seems that it has been kneaded severely by someone, and it has been deformed.
He picked it up and looked it over, and recognized that it was Mu Xiaorou who entrusted him to hand it over yesterday.He was clearly handed over to Xiao Lin, how could he end up here?
Could it be... Xiao Lin threw it.
Shen Xingcong was not quite sure.
Although Xiao Lin never cared about others, he wouldn't have traveled so far to throw it away, right?What's more, if you don't want it, why bother to accept it yesterday.
He couldn't figure it out.Put away the sachet and continue to rush to the open space.
"Shen Xingcong, you're late again!"
Before the person arrived, he heard Yunxiu scolding from afar.
Shen Xingcong fell to the ground and saw that everyone except him had come.Mu Xiaorou saw him and called Brother Xingcong.
Xiao Lin remained calm as usual.
Although Shen Xingcong wanted to ask something, but now was not the time, so he had to hold back.
After the sword test was over, the brothers and sisters walked back.Because Mu Xiaorou was about to leave Jingxin Peak, they all stepped forward to chat.
Shen Xingcong did not follow.Seeing Xiao Lin walking in the other direction, he called for someone to stop him.
"Xiao Lin."
When he saw someone stop, he spoke.
"I have something to ask you."
Talking again is back to Xiao Lin's residence.
Shen Xingcong entered the room first, and heard the people behind him ask: "Senior brother, what do you want to ask?"
Without saying a word, Shen Xingcong took out the sachet from his arms and threw it on the table.
When Xiao Lin saw it, his expression remained unchanged: "It's actually at the senior brother's place."
"Don't you know." Shen Xingcong pointed over, "Didn't you throw this yourself?"
Xiao Lin: "No."
Shen Xingcong: "How could it fall outside?"
"Mu Xiaorou came to see me this morning." Xiao Lin said calmly, "She took it away."
Hearing this, Shen Xingcong was taken aback.
Mu Xiaorou took it away?It was obviously entrusted to him to hand it over, how could he take it back by himself?
He asked puzzledly, "what did she come to see you for?"
"I don't know." Xiao Lin said, "I let her in, but when she saw the sachet left in the bucket, she picked it up and left."
inside the barrel?
Shen Xingcong pointed to the corner with trembling hands: "...You don't mean the barrel over there, do you?"
Xiao Lin looked over and nodded: "It seems to be."
That TM is throwing garbage!
Shen Xingcong finally sorted out the cause and effect.
Probably when he handed the sachet to Xiao Lin, Xiao Lin turned around and threw it away.It happened that Mu Xiaorou came to find it the next day and saw the sachet on the ground, thinking that Xiao Lin had thrown it away at random, so she sadly picked it up.
As for why it landed in Kusama, either Mu Xiaorou accidentally dropped it, or she threw it out out of anger.
Shen Xingcong didn't know what to say.
After this incident, Mu Xiaorou probably won't have any delusional thoughts about Xiao Lin anymore, and will completely cut off all kindness and justice.
"You shouldn't be like this." Shen Xingcong said, "After all, it's a parting gift. Even if you don't like it, at least keep it in a box. How can you throw it away at will."
Xiao Lin: "I'm not unhappy."
Shen Xingcong: "Then why do you..."
"Senior brother is strange." Xiao Lin interrupted, "Since I said that I can do things as usual, why do you want to point fingers?"
Point fingers?
Shen Xingcong came back to his senses.
His words just now seemed to be disciplining Xiao Lin.
Knowing that all "education" is meaningless to Xiao Lin, why would he do this?
Was it because of Mu Xiaorou that she felt unwilling?Or, just because she has gotten closer to Xiao Lin recently, she became arrogant and ignored Xiao Lin's real body.
"...I-I forgot."
He seemed to have lost his nerve.
Seeing this, Xiao Lin raised his hand: "Senior brother has nothing else to do, please go back."
After being ordered to evict guests, Shen Xingcong walked out in a daze.He stopped suddenly.
and many more.
Has he been drawn into it?
By the way, why did he think so much?
He just disciplines what's wrong, just points fingers at what's wrong.
Just because he is still Senior Brother Xiao Lin, and his cultivation base is higher than this guy!
Shen Xingcong gained confidence and turned back.Put away the sachet on the table and stuff it to Xiao Lin: "You have to apologize to Mu Xiaorou."
Xiao Lin frowned slightly: "No."
"It's a sachet made by someone else. If you don't like it at the time, just don't take it. At worst, I'll return it. I just took it and threw it away at will. What do you make people think?"
Before Xiao Lin could speak, Shen Xingcong went on.
Because he probably knew that Xiao Lin's response was nothing more than: I don't care what she thinks.
After all, in fact, Xiao Lin really doesn't care much about other people's opinions.
"Now he is leaving. I don't ask you to reconcile, at least don't let people leave a bad impression on Jingxin Peak."
The room was silent for a long time.
"So," Xiao Lin asked after a while, "What will senior brother offer in exchange this time?"
Shen Xingcong: "What?"
Xiao Lin smiled: "Brother can't let me do things for nothing."
Shen Xingcong understood.
This man wants blood.It's like taking advantage of the danger of the lion to open his mouth. It is estimated that he has tasted the sweetness from the previous time.
But this time he will never agree.
Not only was he not at fault this time; more importantly, he couldn't let Xiao Lin develop this habit.Offer a deal whenever he asks for something.
He replied, "No exchange."
Xiao Lin: "Then why should I listen to senior brother?"
Shen Xingcong folded his arms: "Just because I am your senior brother."
As if thinking this was ridiculous, Xiao Lin twitched the corner of his mouth.
Shen Xingcong: "Just say whether you want to go or not."
Xiao Lin: "No."
Shen Xingcong: "Will you go?"
Xiao Lin: "No."
it is good.
Shen Xingcong looked around.
Xiao Lin watched his movements: "What are you looking for, brother?"
Shen Xingcong: "Stick."
When Xiao Lin heard this, his words froze.After a long while, he said: "Senior brother wants to hit me?"
Shen Xingcong glared at him: "Are you afraid?"
"...just a little surprised."
Xiao Lin returned to his usual expression, "I thought my brother didn't have this habit anymore."
He unbuttoned his collar while talking: "Where do you want to fight, brother?"
Seeing his reckless attitude, Shen Xingcong became angry and pointed his finger.
"Go and lie down on the bed."
Xiao Lin's hand, which was about to untie his belt, hovered in the air, looking in the direction of his fingers.
Then hear the next sentence.
"Pants off, butt pouted. Get it?"
The quiet room was so quiet that all the sounds could be heard clearly.
There are leaves falling outside the window, dangling and falling, and swinging to the ground.
Shen Xingcong's arms tensed, and he pushed the person in front of him away: "Enough."
Xiao Lin's forehead slightly covered his face.Her lips were red from the blood she had just tasted.
He licked away the blood on the corner of his mouth and smiled: "Thank you, brother."
Shen Xingcong didn't say much, and put his hands on his shoulders.With a light swipe, the cut marks healed.
I cast a purification spell again, and the remaining blood stains disappeared without a trace.
He quickly put on his clothes, tied his belt and said, "That's the deal, don't go back on your word."
Xiao Lin: "The one who repents is clearly the senior brother."
Shen Xingcong was momentarily at a loss for words: "I, I know. So I gave you blood!"
Once he recalled the scene just now, he felt a little embarrassed.
Strange to say, exchanging blood on weekdays doesn't feel like a big deal.Could it be that they got too close this time?
Leaving aside the strangeness in his heart, he said: "This time the situation is special. In the future, we will still exchange palms."
Xiao Lin looked away and sighed slightly.
"It's no use pretending to be pitiful."
As Shen Xingcong said, he turned and opened the door, just in time to bump into the oncoming Senior Brother Murong.
He was caught off guard and forgot to say hello for a moment.
Murong was still reticent and nodded towards him.
Shen Xingcong returned to his senses: "Mu, hello Senior Brother Murong, are you coming to practice?"
Murong nodded again, and suddenly sensed something was wrong, frowning a little.
Shen Xingcong had cast the barrier of silence just now.I knew it was impossible for this person to hear their conversation, but seeing the expression on the other side, I still couldn't help but feel nervous.
"Brother what happened?"
"You here..." Murong tapped his belt, "Loosen it."
Shen Xingcong lowered his eyes, only then realized that his belt was crooked.Xu Shi was just impatient and didn't pay attention for a while.
He hastened to fasten it again: "Thank you, brother, for reminding me. It must have happened by accident when I stayed at the hotel just now."

I was glad that the person I ran into was Senior Brother Murong.If it was Senior Sister Yunxiu or Senior Brother Yu Fei, I am afraid it would not be so easy to fool.
The former will definitely hold him and educate him for half an hour, and blame him for his disheveled clothes.
The latter will laugh at it.After about half a day, the entire Jingxin Peak knew about it.
Murong was about to go in when he noticed Xiao Lin standing in the room.The other party smiled at him, and then left.
Murong:?
He sniffed and frowned.
The smell of blood?
From Shen Xingcong's point of view, this series of incidents was finally resolved for the time being.
Occasionally, Mu Xiaorou could be seen talking to Xiao Lin.The girl laughed through her tears, and finally she no longer showed her face that was about to cry.
"Ah, Brother Xingcong!"
When Shen Xingcong passed by from a distance, he heard Mu Xiaorou calling him.
He stopped and looked, and saw him running towards him with his skirt lifted.The sun fell on the face, and the bun bounced along with it.
But Xiao Lin stood where he was, and didn't follow up with him, but just looked at this side.
"Xiao Rou." Shen Xingcong withdrew his gaze and looked at the girl in front of him, "What's wrong?"
Mu Xiaorou: "I'm here to thank you."
Shen Xingcong: "Thank you?"
Mu Xiaorou took a few steps closer and lowered her volume: "Brother Xingcong helped me, right? Xiao Lin finally talked to me again now."
"I didn't do anything." Shen Xingcong shook his head, "I've said it all, it's his own weird temper."
"No matter what, I still want to thank you." Mu Xiaorou smiled.
Something bad arose in Shen Xingcong's heart: "Then you treat him now..."
"After listening to brother Xingcong's words that day, I really reflected on it."
Mu Xiaoju said, "Perhaps I shouldn't impose my delusion on others. That day when Xiao Lin kindly rescued me, I thought it was fate and forced him to accept my kindness. This is wrong."
Shen Xingcong didn't expect Mu Xiaorou to take all the responsibility on himself, and his heart skipped a beat: "That's not the case..."
"Don't be comforted, I've already thought about it." Mu Xiaoju said, "Xiao Lin didn't mean anything to me, that's why he backed away before. Thinking about it, it's because I want to pay attention to giving up."
Speaking of this, she seemed a little embarrassed, and lowered her head: "But I am not only puzzled, but also go to his side day after day. It is right to bother me."

Shen Xingcong was stunned: "Is that so?"
He thought that the other party was definitely coming for Xiao Lin.
Mu Xiaorou couldn't help but blush: "Boss, I need to find a good speech."
Hearing this, Shen Xingcong couldn't help but laugh.
Mu Xiaorou stomped her feet: "I knew they would laugh at me. That's why I didn't want to say it!"

Shen Xingcong approached: "What did you just say?"
Xiao Lin: "She said she was leaving."
"Oh," Shen Xingcong said, "She told me just now."
Xiao Lin: "Brother, can you feel at ease now?"
Peace of mind?
Shen Xingcong hadn't thought about this before, and when Mu Xiaorou suddenly said that he wanted to leave, he felt a little bit reluctant.
But from now on, if Xiao Lin and Mu Xiaorou have nothing to do with each other, then it can be regarded as... peace of mind, right?
He hesitated and nodded.
This episode is finally over.In any case, the two no longer "love at first sight" like the original.
Soon it was a few days before Mu Xiaorou left the peak.In the evening, Mu Xiaorou came here specially and handed Shen Xingcong a sachet.
"Brother Xingcong, I made this myself." Mu Xiaoju said, "I heard from Senior Sister Yunxiu that you can't sit still when you meditate. There are medicinal herbs in it to calm your mind and breath."
Grass leaves are embroidered on the outside of the sachet, which exudes a touch of incense, which makes people feel peaceful.
"I embroidered flowers for Senior Sister Yunxiu. You are men, so it's not suitable to bring flowers. So I changed this." Mu Xiaorou asked timidly, "Do you still like it?"
Shen Xingcong did not expect to receive a gift, and was very happy: "I like it, of course I like it."
He accepted the sachet, "I have a heart."
Mu Xiaorou seemed to be relieved, and said with a smile: "I have been taken care of by everyone in the past few months, which is what I should."
After chatting for a while, she took out another sachet from her bosom and handed it to Shen Xingcong.
"And this... is for Xiao Lin. Brother Xingcong, can you give it to him for me. If I deliver it, I'm afraid he won't accept it."
The style of the sachet is somewhat different, and the pattern on it looks like flowers and grass.It is extremely unfeminine, but a little more cold and solemn, obviously much more refined.
This probably reflects the little girl's thoughtfulness.
Besides, when it comes to giving up, Xiao Lin is still different from other people deep down in his heart, so he can't help but put more thought into it.Only time to heal slowly.
Shen Xingcong sighed in his heart, and took it: "I see."
Anyway, Mu Xiaorou is leaving soon, so it's okay to do this last favor.
Mu Xiaorou looked quite happy and thanked her repeatedly.
When returning to his room at night, Shen Xingcong knocked on Xiao Lin's door.As soon as the other party opened it, he handed over the sachet without saying a word.
Xiao Lin paused, and his eyes fell.
Shen Xingcong: "Mu Xiaorou gave it to you."
"...No wonder."
Xiao Lin said, "The pattern is exquisite, but my brother is clumsy. How could it be my brother who embroidered it?"
At this time, I still have to step on him.
Shen Xingcong: "Even if I know how to embroider, I won't give it to you!"
"Brother, please bring it here." Xiao Lin took the sachet, "Is there anything else?"
Shen Xingcong did not expect Xiao Lin to be so straightforward.I thought it would choke him a few words.
Can't help but startled for a moment: "It's okay."
"Good night, brother."
Xiao Lin closed the door.
Seeing the door close before his eyes, Shen Xingcong touched the tip of his nose.
Forget it, things have been delivered anyway.So be it.
Xiao Lin returned to the room and first sniffed the smell of the sachet.It is recognized that it is a mixture of various spiritual herbs, which is helpful for breathing and absorbing spiritual energy.
Not poisonous.
He casually threw it on the table.
Shen Xingcong's reason for letting him avoid Mu Xiaorou is still unclear.I thought it was related to spiritual root restoration, but now it doesn't seem to be the case.
In the early stage, he was treated coldly, but in the end, the woman's benevolence revoked the agreement.Explain that avoiding or not avoiding Mu Xiaorou is not the point.
It was Mu Xiaorou's "favor" towards him.
Shen Xingcong didn't want this kind of "favor" to happen.Seeing that this tendency disappeared later, he let go.Even the sachet was specially sent this time, probably because he felt that Mu Xiaorou's departure was not a big threat.
Xiao Lin always thought that others always have a purpose in doing things.
Moxiu slaughtered his family for his cultivation; Elder Jingxin saved him for merit.Shen Xingcong was by his side many times before, also because of "the Way of Heaven".
With one's own body, resist the way of heaven.
This point seemed ridiculous to Xiao Lin.It was not possible to say whether it was successful or not.Because the other party finally compromised and promised to repair the spirit root.
Only this time he didn't understand.
Neither for the way of heaven, nor for closeness to the suzerain.
So what exactly is it for?
"I like it." Yu Fei sighed.
He was testing his sword in the open space, when he heard this sentence, Xiao Lin couldn't help but raise his eyes.
Yunxiu scolded: "What are you talking about without thinking?"
"No, isn't Xiaorou leaving? She came to me specially yesterday and gave me this."
Yu Fei emphasized the accent of the word "specially" and took out the sachet from his waist.
"It must be that I have taken care of her a lot on weekdays, which made her secretly agree."
"What are you talking about?" Yunxiu asked blackly, "You know that Xiao Rou is here for Xiao Lin."
Yu Fei retorted: "Then she has stayed in Jingxin Peak for nearly half a year, and she is still not allowed to transfer love?"
Thinking about the incorrect word, she changed her words again, "Isn't she allowed to recognize true love?"
After all, during this period of time, Xiao Lin's indifference towards Mu Xiaorou was obvious to all, and even Yun Xiu felt a little inconceivable.
But this doesn't mean she agrees with Yu Fei's wishful thinking, she opened the hem of her clothes: "If you give a sachet, it means you like it. Could it be that she also falls in love with me?"
Yu Fei took a closer look and suddenly found a sachet hanging on the waist of the senior sister.It was embroidered with flowers, more delicate than his blade of grass pattern.
Yu Fei muttered: "You are a woman, this doesn't count."
"Murong." Yunxiu called calmly.
Murong understood, and said to Yu Fei: "I received it too. It smells so good, I hung it on the bedside."
Yu Fei was shocked.
"Not to mention junior brother." Yunxiu said to Xiao Lin, "Right, you must have received it too."
Xiao Lin smiled, but did not speak.
Yu Fei covered his head, collapsed and knelt down.
Yunxiu patted her shoulder: "If you want to be favored by women, you'd better put down your temper."
Murong watched the interaction between the two in front of him, put away his sword, and looked into the distance.
"Speaking of which, Junior Brother Xing Cong and Junior Sister Xiaorou haven't arrived yet?"
It's a sachet.
Shen Xingcong got up late.Today I planned to test the sword, and was rushing to the open space, but on the way, I stepped on a soft object and almost fell.
Looking down, I saw it was a sachet.
The plain orchid pattern became dusty due to being stained with mud.It seems that it has been kneaded severely by someone, and it has been deformed.
He picked it up and looked it over, and recognized that it was Mu Xiaorou who entrusted him to hand it over yesterday.He was clearly handed over to Xiao Lin, how could he end up here?
Could it be... Xiao Lin threw it.
Shen Xingcong was not quite sure.
Although Xiao Lin never cared about others, he wouldn't have traveled so far to throw it away, right?What's more, if you don't want it, why bother to accept it yesterday.
He couldn't figure it out.Put away the sachet and continue to rush to the open space.
"Shen Xingcong, you're late again!"
Before the person arrived, he heard Yunxiu scolding from afar.
Shen Xingcong fell to the ground and saw that everyone except him had come.Mu Xiaorou saw him and called Brother Xingcong.
Xiao Lin remained calm as usual.
Although Shen Xingcong wanted to ask something, but now was not the time, so he had to hold back.
After the sword test was over, the brothers and sisters walked back.Because Mu Xiaorou was about to leave Jingxin Peak, they all stepped forward to chat.
Shen Xingcong did not follow.Seeing Xiao Lin walking in the other direction, he called for someone to stop him.
"Xiao Lin."
When he saw someone stop, he spoke.
"I have something to ask you."
Talking again is back to Xiao Lin's residence.
Shen Xingcong entered the room first, and heard the people behind him ask: "Senior brother, what do you want to ask?"
Without saying a word, Shen Xingcong took out the sachet from his arms and threw it on the table.
When Xiao Lin saw it, his expression remained unchanged: "It's actually at the senior brother's place."
"Don't you know." Shen Xingcong pointed over, "Didn't you throw this yourself?"
Xiao Lin: "No."
Shen Xingcong: "How could it fall outside?"
"Mu Xiaorou came to see me this morning." Xiao Lin said calmly, "She took it away."
Hearing this, Shen Xingcong was taken aback.
Mu Xiaorou took it away?It was obviously entrusted to him to hand it over, how could he take it back by himself?
He asked puzzledly, "what did she come to see you for?"
"I don't know." Xiao Lin said, "I let her in, but when she saw the sachet left in the bucket, she picked it up and left."
inside the barrel?
Shen Xingcong pointed to the corner with trembling hands: "...You don't mean the barrel over there, do you?"
Xiao Lin looked over and nodded: "It seems to be."
That TM is throwing garbage!
Shen Xingcong finally sorted out the cause and effect.
Probably when he handed the sachet to Xiao Lin, Xiao Lin turned around and threw it away.It happened that Mu Xiaorou came to find it the next day and saw the sachet on the ground, thinking that Xiao Lin had thrown it away at random, so she sadly picked it up.
As for why it landed in Kusama, either Mu Xiaorou accidentally dropped it, or she threw it out out of anger.
Shen Xingcong didn't know what to say.
After this incident, Mu Xiaorou probably won't have any delusional thoughts about Xiao Lin anymore, and will completely cut off all kindness and justice.
"You shouldn't be like this." Shen Xingcong said, "After all, it's a parting gift. Even if you don't like it, at least keep it in a box. How can you throw it away at will."
Xiao Lin: "I'm not unhappy."
Shen Xingcong: "Then why do you..."
"Senior brother is strange." Xiao Lin interrupted, "Since I said that I can do things as usual, why do you want to point fingers?"
Point fingers?
Shen Xingcong came back to his senses.
His words just now seemed to be disciplining Xiao Lin.
Knowing that all "education" is meaningless to Xiao Lin, why would he do this?
Was it because of Mu Xiaorou that she felt unwilling?Or, just because she has gotten closer to Xiao Lin recently, she became arrogant and ignored Xiao Lin's real body.
"...I-I forgot."
He seemed to have lost his nerve.
Seeing this, Xiao Lin raised his hand: "Senior brother has nothing else to do, please go back."
After being ordered to evict guests, Shen Xingcong walked out in a daze.He stopped suddenly.
and many more.
Has he been drawn into it?
By the way, why did he think so much?
He just disciplines what's wrong, just points fingers at what's wrong.
Just because he is still Senior Brother Xiao Lin, and his cultivation base is higher than this guy!
Shen Xingcong gained confidence and turned back.Put away the sachet on the table and stuff it to Xiao Lin: "You have to apologize to Mu Xiaorou."
Xiao Lin frowned slightly: "No."
"It's a sachet made by someone else. If you don't like it at the time, just don't take it. At worst, I'll return it. I just took it and threw it away at will. What do you make people think?"
Before Xiao Lin could speak, Shen Xingcong went on.
Because he probably knew that Xiao Lin's response was nothing more than: I don't care what she thinks.
After all, in fact, Xiao Lin really doesn't care much about other people's opinions.
"Now he is leaving. I don't ask you to reconcile, at least don't let people leave a bad impression on Jingxin Peak."
The room was silent for a long time.
"So," Xiao Lin asked after a while, "What will senior brother offer in exchange this time?"
Shen Xingcong: "What?"
Xiao Lin smiled: "Brother can't let me do things for nothing."
Shen Xingcong understood.
This man wants blood.It's like taking advantage of the danger of the lion to open his mouth. It is estimated that he has tasted the sweetness from the previous time.
But this time he will never agree.
Not only was he not at fault this time; more importantly, he couldn't let Xiao Lin develop this habit.Offer a deal whenever he asks for something.
He replied, "No exchange."
Xiao Lin: "Then why should I listen to senior brother?"
Shen Xingcong folded his arms: "Just because I am your senior brother."
As if thinking this was ridiculous, Xiao Lin twitched the corner of his mouth.
Shen Xingcong: "Just say whether you want to go or not."
Xiao Lin: "No."
Shen Xingcong: "Will you go?"
Xiao Lin: "No."
it is good.
Shen Xingcong looked around.
Xiao Lin watched his movements: "What are you looking for, brother?"
Shen Xingcong: "Stick."
When Xiao Lin heard this, his words froze.After a long while, he said: "Senior brother wants to hit me?"
Shen Xingcong glared at him: "Are you afraid?"
"...just a little surprised."
Xiao Lin returned to his usual expression, "I thought my brother didn't have this habit anymore."
He unbuttoned his collar while talking: "Where do you want to fight, brother?"
Seeing his reckless attitude, Shen Xingcong became angry and pointed his finger.
"Go and lie down on the bed."
Xiao Lin's hand, which was about to untie his belt, hovered in the air, looking in the direction of his fingers.
Then hear the next sentence.
"Pants off, butt pouted. Get it?"
