Gu Xuecheng stood blankly outside the kitchen window, hearing the rustling of the breeze blowing through the treetops, and the mottled light and shadow of the swaying green trees in front of his eyes, but he couldn't feel it at all, only the person in the kitchen was in his eyes.

He stared blankly at the man, watched his every move, every frown and smile, and felt that his mind was blank.

The man scooped up half a bowl of snow-white glutinous rice, soaked it in spring water, fried a small handful of peanuts, and crushed them finely with a garlic mortar...

Gu Xuecheng had seen these ordinary movements countless times in Lingxi Peak's small kitchen, and no one could imitate them to this extent, and no one could fool his eyes.

Looking at the very familiar movements of that person, he felt his throat choked up, his feet felt light, and his whole body seemed to be in a dream. He even held his breath involuntarily, for fear that if he was not careful, the dream would be shattered. up.

I don't know how long it took, but Gu Xuecheng finally came back to his senses. He stared at the person inside, still in disbelief. His fingertips condensed spiritual energy, and he squeezed his palm hard!

There was a sharp burning pain in the palm of my hand. The pain was so real and vivid that it was absolutely impossible to fake it. Everything in front of me was real. This was not a dream, nor some kind of illusion, but... my brother is back .

Gu Xuecheng stared at the extremely familiar figure, his throat choked up involuntarily, and his eyes gradually blurred.

Before the elder brother left, he comforted himself by saying that the pear blossoms were gone, and the little fox should go back. He really didn't lie to himself, he was really a little fox, but even after repaying his favor, even if he went back to the forest, he couldn't bear to let go , but turned into a human body again and returned to his side.

Brother, you are really back, and you treat me like this... Gu Xuecheng almost exhausted all his strength, and finally managed to control his extremely excited emotions. The dreamlike feeling gradually dissipated, and a flood of ecstasy surged.

This kind of ecstasy reached its peak when the person whispered "Xiaocheng, eat glutinous rice cake!"

After the man finished calling, he didn't get any response. He came back to his senses and looked at the empty kitchen with an extremely disappointed expression on his face.

Seeing it, Gu Xuecheng felt that his heart was tightly grasped by an invisible big hand. He immediately wanted to release his invisibility, rushed in and hugged that person tightly, and kissed him so fiercely that he couldn't breathe, never again. Let him leave himself!

At this moment, there was a sound of light footsteps coming from the corridor, and a handsome boy of eighteen or nineteen quickly walked into the kitchen, his eyes widened in surprise: "Brother, did you make glutinous rice cakes for me?"

Gu Xuecheng was taken aback for a moment, then stopped in his tracks.

Zhou Yue turned around in surprise: "Xiao Yu? Didn't you go to the martial arts field? Why did you come back so soon?"

A young man named Xiao Yu leaned over, put his chin on Zhou Yue's shoulder from behind, and complained coquettishly: "Brother, I've been practicing for three hours, I'm really tired."

Zhou Yue didn't take it seriously and said: "This is called suffering? Do you practice three nines in winter and three days in summer, have you heard of it?"

The young man pursed his mouth, rolled his black eyeballs, and changed the subject: "Well, it smells so good. Freshly baked glutinous rice cakes are the best."

"Look at how greedy you are, you don't even wash your hands." Zhou Yue reprimanded him fondly, and hit the back of his hand with chopsticks, "This hand is gone, today you lost another move, tomorrow will be more Practice for half an hour."

"Brother is so cunning that he even sneaked up! No, let's do it all over again!" the boy complained.

Gu Xuecheng stared blankly at the way the two were chatting and joking, and couldn't react for a while. The heart that was so light as if it was about to fly just now fell straight down from the high clouds.

How is this going?Who is that boy?Why did he call Zhou Yue..."Brother"?That is obviously a title that belongs to me alone, and no one in the world dares to overstep it!

Gu Xuecheng stared at the beautiful young man, seeing how he was lying on Zhou Yue's shoulder wanton and acting coquettishly, for a moment, he almost wanted to grab that slender neck severely and wring it off with his bare hands!

Gu Xuecheng took a deep breath, tightly clenched his trembling fists, and barely suppressed the boiling killing intent in his chest, calm down, calm down, and take a closer look.

He suppressed the raging jealousy, narrowed his eyes slightly, and sized up the handsome young man. The young man had fair complexion, black hair, delicate and beautiful appearance, slightly raised eye tails, and very delicate lips... In short, he was not serious.

Gu Xuecheng looked at it, and couldn't help but frowned, vaguely feeling a little familiar.

After a while, his mind suddenly brightened, and he finally remembered, this is... the young lady named Yu'er in Jinrui Building!That's right, it's him!

At the beginning, my brother was very kind to him, which made me very uncomfortable. I didn't expect that after so many years, I would be by my brother's side again and see this pretentious young lady!

After recognizing the boy's identity, Gu Xuecheng was even more puzzled, how could Yu'er be with his brother?Are you still so close to your brother?Immediately, he remembered an even more terrifying thing, why did his brother not want to recognize him, and went out of his way to hide from him?

All of these add up... Could it be that my brother has changed his mind?Fall in love with someone else?

Thinking of this terrible possibility, Gu Xuecheng's chest suddenly sank, as if his heart had fallen into the boundless icy water, and the piercing chill surged over the sky.

Calm down, it's impossible, don't mess yourself up, he took a deep breath, almost exhausted all his strength, finally managed to keep calm, and continued to observe the two of them carefully.

Gradually, Gu Xuecheng noticed some clues. Yu'er has been pestering her brother shamelessly, stealing crushed peanuts for a while, stealing glutinous rice cakes for a while, and playing with her brother's hair for a while. There is no overstepping intimacy between them, just like a steady and gentle elder brother treating a much-loved younger brother.

After discovering this result, Gu Xuecheng secretly heaved a sigh of relief, as if he had floated up from the icy cold water, and finally took a breath of fresh air.

That's right, I am my elder brother's benefactor in the previous life. My elder brother loved me deeply, and even endured the shame. Will change easily?

Gu Xuecheng felt a little more at ease in his heart, but he was still a little sour, so he hid himself and followed the two of them all the way from the kitchen to the bedroom.

As soon as he entered the bedroom, Gu Xuecheng couldn't help but frowned deeply, does his brother live in such a crappy place?

Low eaves, dilapidated tables and chairs, chipped bowls, a rough layer of straw on the hard plank bed, and the quilt was so starched that it was white and hard... Moreover, there was only one bed!

Gu Xuecheng stared at the only broken bed, feeling sore and bitter in his heart, jealous and hated, as if he had overturned a pot of old vinegar, and almost immediately began to doubt the relationship between the two of them.

With a snow-white face, he stood silently by the table, watching Zhou Yue having dinner with the boy named Bai Chenyu. I asked Bai Chenyu a few times, and let him drink the pork ribs herbal soup while it was hot. Other than that, everything was normal, and there was no overly intimate behavior.

Gu Xuecheng felt a little more at ease, and finally woke up from the sour and bitter jealousy. Yes, the living conditions of the outer disciples and the cleaning servants are very simple, and it is common for them to sleep on the same bed.

After dinner, the sky gradually darkened. Zhou Yue stood up, took an old towel from the shelf, and picked up a wooden bucket, as if she wanted to go out.

While making the bed, Bai Chenyu turned her head and asked, "Brother, are you going to take a bath? I'll go with you."

Gu Xuecheng furrowed his eyebrows fiercely.

Zhou Yue flatly refused: "I can go by myself, you can read the sword manual for a while, today's move 'Flying Swallows into the Clouds', you made it a little stiff."

Bai Chenyu reluctantly said, "Oh."

Gu Xuecheng slowly relaxed, and suddenly a secret little pride burst out in his heart. Sure enough, his brother's beautiful body was only willing to be seen by himself.

He pursed his lips, followed Zhou Yue out of the back door of the compound, and came to an ancient well deep in the woods.

It was already late at this time, and there was a golden last quarter moon hanging in the dark blue night sky, and the cool and soft moonlight fell on the ground. It was quiet beside the ancient well, only the sound of the wind blowing through the treetops, and no one was there.

Zhou Yue picked up a bucket of well water, looked around, and then began to undress with a rustle.

Gu Xuecheng faintly felt that it was not good to peep at his brother like this. Perhaps, he should turn his back... He only hesitated for a moment, and immediately denied this absurd idea. Knowing that I am here, even if I feel a little shy, I am definitely willing to let myself see it.

Even though he thought so, Gu Xuecheng's eyes still dodged a little, but he couldn't help but glance over there.

After a while, Zhou Yue finished taking off his clothes, bent down to pick up a gourd ladle, scooped up a ladle of cold water from the bucket, and poured it over his shoulders. While taking a shower, he parted his long hair, revealing his neck A red string.

Gu Xuecheng was stunned. Under the red rope, there was a... Luanfeng jade pendant.

Five years ago, when my elder brother stopped breathing in his arms, the phoenix jade pendant also turned into a spot of light and gradually drifted away.He always thought that the jade pendant had disappeared. It turned out that when his brother left, he took it with him.

It turned out that my brother was so reluctant to part with this relationship and this token from his previous life. He not only took it with him when he left, but even after he reincarnated into a human body, he kept wearing it carefully around his neck, even reluctant to take it off when he took a bath.

Gu Xuecheng stared blankly at the jade pendant, feeling sore and distressed in his heart, and at this moment, he was finally completely relieved, his brother treated him infatuatedly, and he still doubted his brother, it was simply unreasonable up.

He recalled the things that happened recently. His brother took the word "Qing" from his former pseudonym "Zhou Qingcheng" and changed his name to "Zhou Qingyue". , mostly just to see myself.

But I lived in seclusion, my brother couldn't see me all the time, so I had to sneak into Yunxue Tower secretly, maybe out of curiosity, I touched the body of the past, but I was furious, not only attacked my brother with spiritual energy, but even summoned Chi Xiao, I want to hurt my brother.

Thinking of this, Gu Xuecheng was filled with regret. Fortunately, Chi Xiao recognized his brother as the master, and was quite spiritual, so he didn't really hurt his brother, and even helped him lead him away.

Later, in the Baiyu Square of Lingxiao Temple, I suspected that my brother was a thief who sneaked into Yunxue Tower, and treated him so contemptuously, but my brother didn't blame me at all. Ashamed to reveal my true heart...

Gu Xuecheng thought back to the passionate words that Zhou Yue clung to the corner of her clothes in Baiyu Square, her snow-white and handsome face couldn't help getting hot, his brother said that he loves himself, is willing to serve him, and accepts himself rain and dew...

Thinking of those almost naked and bold love words, Gu Xuecheng's throat twitched unbearably, and couldn't help but look back at Zhou Yue. Zhou Yue was pouring water on her body, and streams of clear well water slid down her white and thin shoulders ...

Gu Xuecheng's throat tightened suddenly, and he turned his head almost in embarrassment, not daring to look any further, what was he thinking, that he wanted to be in this kind of place... It's not as good as a beast!

Although my brother didn't care about these things, when I went to ask the sword valley to fetch Chi Xiao, in the dirty and muddy lakeside silt, I deliberately pretended to be unconscious, my brother actually kissed me on my own initiative, and even untied my clothes, wanting to use double cultivation The way to save myself... I pushed my brother away, saying that I couldn't treat him casually like this, but my brother said that he didn't care.

But even if my brother doesn't care, how can I despise him so much?

That's right, you must first recognize your brother, and then tell the world, invite guests from all over the world, bloom a hundred miles of pear blossoms, spread a red carpet, marry your brother as your wife, and then... consummate the house with your brother.

Gu Xuecheng made up his mind and tried his best to control himself not to go to see Zhou Yue taking a bath, let alone to think about it. Then, he thought of an extremely important question, why didn't his brother recognize him?

Could it be that my brother's tribe obstructed him?Although he doesn't know much about Yaoxiu, among the famous families in the cultivation world, the marriage of the children of those families is often beyond his control.

Or, because I saved my elder brother's life in the previous life, and my elder brother saved my own life in this life, so the grievances and grievances are over, and there can be no more involvement, otherwise heaven will punish me?

Gu Xuecheng frowned, thinking of the scriptures written by Zhou Yue to Lin Siyun, there was a book "The Legend of the Spirit Snake Repaying Gratitude", which was about the snake demon repaying kindness, disrupting the laws of nature and human relations, and finally being crushed under a high tower.

Gu Xuecheng pondered for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion that Zhou Yue must have come back at a great risk, so he didn't dare to recognize him, and could only sneak a look at him occasionally.

He thought of Zhou Yue's difficult situation, and his elder brother's lost look while looking at him from afar, but he didn't dare to approach him. He felt as if his heart had been thrown into a frying pan, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.

He is now a Nine-Turn Golden Elixir, Immortal Lingxue, he has enough confidence to protect his brother, even if the Heavenly Dao sends the Nine Heavens Profound Thunder, he is still [-]% sure that his brother will not hurt a single hair.

But he has lost it.So even if he was [-]% sure, he didn't dare to take the slightest risk.

That's right, you must proceed with caution, find out the real reason why your brother doesn't want to recognize you, and then solve it.

After Gu Xuecheng made up his mind, Zhou Yue had already finished taking a bath, and gently dried the jade pendant again, and put it in the skirt of his clothes. The cautious look made Gu Xuecheng's heart feel soft and sweet, and he couldn't bear it. Zhu also touched the jade pendant on his neck.

In order to be safe, Gu Xuecheng followed Zhou Yue back to the bedroom. As expected, although Zhou Yue and Bai Chenyu slept in the same bed, they got into two quilts and did not have any intimate behavior. Yu's few words of sword art are exactly the way the elder brother and the younger brother get along.

Gu Xuecheng was completely relieved.

Gu Xuecheng lowered his eyes, looked at the two pieces of glutinous rice cakes left on the table, and couldn't help but tilt his lips slightly. Ever since he saw that piece of jade pendant, the hot jealousy that made him dizzy has disappeared. .

Until now, he has completely figured it out, his brother couldn't let go of himself, so he reincarnated into a human body, went to Lingxiao City to find himself, probably met this down-and-out young man on the way, and took him with him in a moment of soft-heartedness.

My brother really missed me so much, so I made glutinous rice cakes for Bai Chenyu and asked Bai Chenyu to call him "brother". In fact, he was just looking for the shadow of himself in this young man.

To put it more clearly, Bai Chenyu is just a fake, a cheap fake that doesn't even deserve a superficial kiss.

It’s just that this counterfeit didn’t know the truth, didn’t know that glutinous rice cakes were his favorite, didn’t know that his elder brother was wearing a couple jade pendant with himself, and as a sad counterfeit, he was full of his elder brother acting like a baby, full of love. unrealistic fantasies.

Gu Xuecheng glanced at Bai Chenyu coldly, as if looking at a poor wishful thinking creature, the boiling killing intent in the kitchen in the evening has long since dissipated, although there is still some small discomfort, but that is not important anymore .

He stopped paying attention to Bai Chenyu, and while gently stroking his Panlong jade pendant, he began to seriously ponder how he could find out the real reason why his brother refused to recognize him without anyone noticing.

By the way, my brother is now working as a cleaning servant in the library, so he can take advantage of this.

It's just that since I know the identity of my brother, I have to be extra careful. I searched for the soul in the library that day, and many people saw it. Crazy lowly servants, just blast out of the mountain gate.

……

This morning, Zhou Yue just came to the library, and couldn't help being a little surprised.

Although the library building in Lingxiao City is large in scale, it is more or less dilapidated because of its age, but now it has a brand new look, and even the terrazzo floor seems to be washed and clean.

Not only that, but the stewards, big and small, all looked very serious, coming and going in a hurry, as if they were preparing for something.

Zhou Yue asked Ah Zhong softly: "Why is the library so clean? Is there a distinguished guest here?"

Ah Zhong whispered: "I heard that the master Xianzun is studying a new set of mental methods recently. After noon these days, he will come to the library to look up ancient books, so last night the chief steward arranged manpower to clean the library. "

Zhou Yue asked suspiciously: "The steward didn't notify us, who cleaned it?"

Ah Zhong lowered his voice: "The Immortal Venerable loves cleanliness by nature, and he appointed outer disciples with quick hands and feet to clean it. I heard that fifty outer disciples came last night. They worked all night and cleaned the inside and outside of the library. clean."

"I see." Zhou Yue raised her eyebrows, but she didn't think too much about it, as long as she could be lazy.

Gu Xuecheng has always loved cleanliness, and is also very interested in various mind and sword techniques, but if he has to come to the library every day, he has to be more careful, but Gu Xuecheng, a low-level servant like himself, probably would not take it. look straight.

After a while, the chief steward called all the servants together and announced: "Just now Qingfeng envoy came, and he passed on the oral instructions of the master Xianzun. In recent days, when Xianzun was looking up ancient books in the library, he needed four The young servants who are familiar with the library serve him personally, grinding ink to add fragrance, and copying books."

Everyone was silent, vaguely guessing something, and their expressions were a little excited.

The chief manager really said: "You should have guessed that these four personal servants will be selected from among you."

Everyone opened their eyes wide, and immediately started whispering, the excitement was beyond words.

"Personal service to the head of the sect, Immortal Venerable? Isn't this one step to the sky?"

"Not only that, but the Taoist companion of the master Xianzun is a man, maybe we also have a chance..."

"Shh, don't say that, the steward is staring at you."

"Ahem, I don't know what you want?"

"Maybe you need to be familiar with ancient books, with a handsome appearance and quick hands and feet?"

"What's the fuss about? Be quiet, be quiet!" the chief steward scolded, "The sect master Xianzun is coming soon, and he will personally select his personal servants, so hurry up and organize your clothes and line up in two rows, waiting for the Xianzun to come. "

The servants straightened their clothes immediately and lined up in two rows. Two servants almost fought because they were vying for the front position.

Zhou Yue was really not interested in such things as serving Gu Xuecheng personally. He looked at the two servants who were blushing, and couldn't help but secretly rolled his eyes, and sneaked into a corner in the back row.

Not long after, there was a long announcement from outside the gate of the library: "Sect Master Immortal has arrived—"

Zhou Yue suddenly felt a powerful Nine-Turn Golden Core coercion surging, but this coercion is not the same as in the past. In the past, Gu Xuecheng's coercion was cold and majestic, gloomy and fierce, just like a blizzard is coming. Today's coercion It has softened a lot, and it seems that the owner is in a very good mood.

Reminiscent of Gu Xuecheng's need to search for ancient books and study mental methods, could it be that his realm has broken through again, so he is in a good mood?Zhou Yue secretly pondered, but Gu Xuecheng has already reached the Great Perfection of the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir, how can he break through?Soaring by day?Phoenix Nirvana?

He shook his head with a smile, and drove out the thoughts of ascension in the daytime and phoenix nirvana from his mind. He really stayed in the library for a long time and read too many legends and stories.

Zhou Yue came back to his senses, and heard a sound of steady footsteps. He looked up secretly, and saw Gu Xuecheng, surrounded by the Qingfengmingyue Envoy and many hidden guards, dressed in a snow-white robe with a dark gold coiled dragon pattern. Dressed in regular clothes, with the Chixiao Sword and the Qiankun Sundial hanging from his waist, he slowly walked into the library compound.

The steward led the servants to kneel down, but Gu Xuecheng said flatly, "No need."

Everyone was slightly taken aback, but they didn't dare to disobey, so they stood up awkwardly. Zhou Yue didn't really want to kneel at first, so after hearing what Gu Xuecheng said, he naturally didn't bother to kneel.

"You should also know that I am looking up ancient books recently, and I need four servants to attend to them." Gu Xuecheng's gaze swept over everyone's faces.

Zhou Yue quickly lowered her head and pretended to be a quail.

Gu Xuecheng pointed to a boy in the front row: "You."

A handsome young man stood up in surprise and joy.

Gu Xuecheng pointed again casually: "You."

An honest-looking servant stood up tremblingly.

"you."

"Me, me?" Ah Zhong's eyes widened, he was at a loss for a while, and the steward quickly pushed him out.

She probably won't pick herself anymore, Zhou Yue was about to breathe a sigh of relief when Gu Xuecheng said flatly, "There's still you."

There was silence around, Zhou Yue raised his head slowly, Gu Xuecheng's dark eyes were looking at him for a moment, and the servants around him also looked at him enviously, Zhou Yue involuntarily widened his eyes, huh?Have you been chosen?

"The four of you, follow me." After Gu Xuecheng finished speaking, he stopped talking, turned and walked into the library.
