Three days later, He Bei and Xie Juan set off down the mountain before dawn.As soon as he arrived in Songzhou City, Xie Juan led He Bei to West Sixth Street.

He Bei thought, this Shen Xiu is really not a good thing.Otherwise, how could the selected teahouse be on West Sixth Street? Where is West Sixth Street? Nine out of ten stores are in the Fengyue business.

He Bei originally thought that Qiuzhi Lane was the most secluded area in West Sixth Street that he knew, but he didn't expect that the place Xie Juan took him to was even more remote.After twists and turns, I came to the northernmost intersection of West Sixth Street, which is connected to the wilderness on the outskirts of the city, sparsely populated, quiet and cool.

"Brother, it's been three years, do you still remember this place?"

"I have a good memory." As Xie Juan said, he took He Bei's arm and led him into the small teahouse with bamboo curtains and the signboard saying "Red Earth".

This teahouse is very small, there are only two tables that can be seen from the door.The place near the window is covered by the veil, and the sunlight blurs through the veil, and a figure appears faintly.

"It's him." Xie Juan still recognized him through the veil.

He Bei opened the veil first, and looked at Shen Xiucha.

When Shen Xiu saw He Bei, who was quite imposing when he entered the arena, a subtle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Your Excellency, who are you looking for?"

He Bei's expression froze. This Shen Xiu was different from what he thought. He was not at all the same as the Boss Shen he had met in his last life. The appearance in the memory of the whole life.

Handsome in appearance, elegant in temperament, with a gentle smile on his face.In He Bei's view, it was all a trick of disguise.

Shen Xiu's hair is not long, it only reaches the shoulder side, two small braids are woven with gold thread and hang on the right ear side.She was dressed in bright azure blue, with a jade lock as white as mountain snow hanging on her chest.

Xie Juan came in, and when he saw Shen Xiu, he saluted and said, "Boss Shen."

"Xie, come on, sit down."

Shen Xiu narrowed her slender fox-like eyes and asked, "Who is this?"

Xie Juan introduced calmly: "This is my junior brother, he came with me."

He Bei also greeted him, but his tone was obviously stinging: "Boss Shen, I've admired your name for a long time, and I'm going to He Bei."

Shen Xiu rubbed her chin, hesitated for a moment, and said, "He Bei? Could you be the Lord of Kucheng in Southwest Ning, the young master of He An's family?"

He Bei smiled: "Yes."

"Drink tea, drink tea." Shen Xiu stood up and poured a cup of brightly colored rose tea for He Bei and Xie Juan.

He Bei picked up the slightly hot teacup and looked at it. The teacup was as thin and bright as glass, very translucent, and one could see the bright red petals floating and whirling inside.

"Xiao Xie, I contacted you once last month, but you didn't reply back then. I heard that the Demon Cult harassed you at Fengyu Sword Village, are you okay?"

He Bei thought, it's nonsense to ask, if something serious happens, can I sit here and drink tea with you?

Xie Juan responded politely: "No problem."

He Bei leaned on the back of the chair, sizing up Shen Xiu without hesitation, his eyes seemed to be hiding a sword, showing a cold light.

Shen Xiu turned the conversation to He Bei: "Young Master He, how old is this year?"

He Beipi smiled, "Eighteen."

Shen Xiu took a sip of her tea, and said slowly, "Gang and weak...I really envy you young people."

He Bei snorted and said, "Dare to ask Boss Shen, how old is Fang?"

Hearing the word Fangling, Shen Xiugang choked the tea he drank, coughed a few times, and almost lost his manners: "It's two years away and I won't be confused."

Three words jumped out of He Bei's heart: old stuff.

He Bei took a sip of scented tea and smacked his lips: "Yes, I'm quite old."

After Shen Xiu heard the ironic words, she just chuckled twice: "Yes, I can't compare to you young people. By the way, how about this tea? The flowers brewed here are from the Jinsha variety. You young people drink."

He Bei was about to speak, but was interrupted by Xie Juan: "It's delicious, it's the first time I drink tea with such a strong floral fragrance."

Xie Juan noticed that He Bei was too hostile to Shen Xiu.

Shen Xiu smiled with satisfaction, picked up the gold crystal crystal hanging around her neck, and took a closer look at Xie Juan: "Yes, Xiao Xie, you have really grown up a lot in the past three years, you have grown taller, and you have become more elegant. , especially those eyebrows..."

"Xiao Xie, you still remember the things I mentioned in the letter, but I'm afraid I can't say it today." Shen Xiu took a special look at He Bei, showing regret, and continued to look back at Xie Juan: "But It doesn't matter, it's good to see you. I plan to stay in Songzhou City for a few more days this time before returning to Jiangdong."

He Bei straightened up suddenly, put his elbows on the table, and said with his chin resting, "Don't feel sorry, you said in your letter that you wanted to tell my senior brother about his life, now you can say it." He pointed Jian tapped the table twice: During the few days you stayed in Songzhou City, no matter what day, it is impossible to see my senior brother alone. "

Shen Xiu froze for a moment, in the world of crystal chips, the boy's aura was extremely oppressive, there was a gloomy chill between his brows, and his gaze was like a poisoned cold arrow, ready to pierce into his flesh and blood.

Shen Xiu regained her original gentle demeanor, and her expression turned serious: "This is your senior brother's business, you can't make a decision for him. Your senior brother's family background has nothing to do with you. If you don't want to get involved, it won't do you any good. Take it easy." Think clearly, young people, you can join in all the fun."

"Oh? If that's the case, I advise you to go back to your Jiangdong as soon as possible, and don't bother my senior brother. Don't write any letters, I will burn one when I see it." He Bei said while holding Xie Juan's hand : "Brother, let's go."

Xie Juan didn't hesitate, but stood up with He Bei, which surprised Shen Xiu.Shen Xiu didn't understand why Xie Juan listened to a junior brother so much.But when he saw the hands of the two interlocking fingers, he seemed to understand something. Normal brothers holding hands would not habitually interlock their fingers.

Shen Xiu softened her attitude and said, "Xiao Xie, you really don't want to know? Who are your parents, how did they die, and how did your master pick you up in Taiziling? You are not the only one involved in your identity." people......"

Xie Juan hesitated for a moment, and said, "I really want to know. But, as you said, knowing too much is not necessarily good."

"Every day in the future, I will wait for you here. I will return to Jiangdong when you take the initiative to find me. Remember, come to me alone, don't bring anyone with you." Shen Xiu smiled slightly.

He Bei looked back and gave Shen Xiu a cold look: "Then you should prepare to celebrate the New Year in Songzhou as soon as possible." Then his tone softened: "That's right. Senior brother, return that wooden sign to him."

Xie Juan took out the wooden plaque of Shen's money bank from his sleeve, and placed it in front of Shen Xiu.

He Bei took out three silver notes with a face value of [-] gold and threw them on the table: "A few months ago, I borrowed [-] gold from it when something happened, so I will make it up now. I still have to thank Boss Shen for his emergency rescue."

He Bei smiled, and his face suddenly cooled down again.These days, the mine he bought with Yu Jiu made a lot of money. He didn’t want to pay Shen Xiu back, and felt that he didn’t want to take advantage of it. I don't want to owe Shen Xiu anything.

Coming out of West Sixth Street, He Bei suddenly said seriously to Xie Juan: "Brother, don't you really want to know about your life experience? If you really want to know, you can go back and find him, but what he told you You have to tell me everything, it’s not that I want to know your secret, I’m afraid you will be used by someone with a heart.”

He Bei pretended to be magnanimous after saying this, feeling flustered in his heart.He was afraid that Xie Juan would really go back to find Shen Xiu, but he had no reason to prevent Xie Juan from knowing about his life experience.He was just afraid that Xie Juan would be trapped by the so-called responsibilities and the grievances of the family and the country woven by the so-called old generation just like in the previous life... Beifu used Xie Juan's kindness and blood to help They gathered power and regained power, Shen Xiu's goal should not be much different from that of Beifu.

He Bei thought of some persuasive words: "Brother, I can guess a little bit about your life experience." In order to make his own words more reasonable, He Bei made up a credible reason: "Once, I heard My father talked to the master...Brother, your life may be related to the royal family of the Li Kingdom. You were picked up by the master in Taiziling...there is the most unspeakable place in the Southwest and North Prefectures , is Li Guo’s death, do you remember what Master said, she said that you are the hope of rebirth in the sea of ​​corpses and blood, that she snatched you from the hands of Hades, and that you are her precious treasure.”

He Bei felt that what he implied was clear enough.

In the previous life, after He Bei established himself as a demon king, when he went to the southwest to collect his father's belongings, he checked the letters that Jinglian and He An had passed, only to find out that only He An and Jinglian knew Xie Juan's identity long ago.It's just that Jinglian and He An really love Xie Juan and don't want him to get involved in any disputes or shoulder any responsibilities, so they keep hiding it.

Xie Juan fell into a long silence.

He Bei gave him time to think about it.

"Brother, I don't know enough details. If you really want to know more, you might as well ask Master. Master will not harm you. It's just that Shen Xiu, he definitely didn't choose to tell you those things for your own good. , must be profitable, he is the richest person in the inland of Zhongzhou, he is not a businessman..."

He Bei hated Shen Xiu from the bottom of his heart.When Shen Xiu looked at Xie Juan, he looked at it so carefully that if he had a chance, he would definitely break the two chips.

Xie Juan's palms felt a little cold.

"Let's go, let's go buy some roast chicken and dim sum, and then go back to Fengyu Mountain." Xie Juan held He Bei's hand and walked forward.

"Okay." He Bei clenched Xie Juan's hand, and his expression relaxed visibly.

"You seem to be very afraid that I will go back to find him." Xie Juan could see all the ups and downs of He Bei's emotions.

Xie Juan could feel that every expression and action of He Bei revolved around him.

"Senior brother, I will not allow any accident that can cause you to leave me, I will go crazy." He Bei's eyes were flushed with emotion.

After He Bei said this, he also felt that he was hopeless. His love for Xie Juan was morbid and infatuated.He couldn't help it.

He Bei subconsciously pulled Xie Juan into his arms, and his arms pressed on Xie Juan's bones so painfully.

Xie Juan stroked He Bei's back with his palm again and again.In Xie Juan's eyes, He Bei seemed to be getting younger and younger.When he was young, He Bei was like brown candy, he would stick to him when he ate, drank, and let loose, but when he grew up, he didn't like to play with him anymore. He thought he was old-fashioned and boring, and he always liked to control him. The more disobedient.

And at this moment, He Bei who was holding him, he could feel his dependence on him...seemed to be deeper than when he was a child.Xie Juan thought, the bond between them must be tied, he couldn't think of any accident that could separate the two of them.
