Shen Muzhi didn't know what Zhao Zhengguang had done for him, and when his emotions finally stabilized, it was already half an hour later. Zhou Yu had been guarding outside the door, and when he saw him walking out, he hurriedly stopped him: "Where are you going?"

Shen Muzhi pulled the corners of his mouth hard, revealing a smile that was more ugly than crying, and said, "I'll go find Master." ”

Zhou Yu looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Then I'll accompany you over." ”

Shen Muzhi knew that he was worried about himself, so he did not refuse.

The two of them left the Little Plum Garden in silence and walked quickly towards the Little Spirit Sword Pavilion.

Zhao Zhengguang still sat at the stone table, as if he had never left.

"Master, the disciple wants to go to Yuhe Peak. ”

Zhao Zhengguang looked up at him, his body that had lost a circle was now wearing that robe, and it looked a little loose. Standing there, the loose robes hung on his tall and thin body, coupled with his pale cheeks, revealing a feeling of weakness.

After Zhao Zhengguang sighed secretly in his heart, he said: "You don't need to go to Yuhefeng for the time being, your Uncle Yu went out of the mountain to do business this morning, and he shouldn't come back in a short time." ”

Shen Muzhi couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he heard this, he was in a low mood, and he didn't think much about anything wrong with it. After a moment of silence, he said, "Then can I go and worship Miss Yuzhi?"

Zhao Zhengguang pondered for a moment and said, "You just have this heart, and Yuhefeng doesn't need to go." ”

Shen Muzhi raised his eyes and looked at him: "But the disciple wants to say sorry to her in person!"

Zhao Zhengguang saw his gaze, his heart ached slightly, and then replied softly: "There will be a chance in the future." Wait. ”

When Shen Muzhi heard this, he lowered his head again, his thin body stubbornly straightened, and after a while, he hummed softly, and then bowed to say goodbye.

Zhao Zhengguang watched him walk away and glanced at Zhou Yu again.

Zhou Yu suddenly understood and hurriedly followed.

In the next few days, Zhou Yu was like his shadow, wherever he went, he followed, like a shadow, not leaving an inch.

Until that day, Xuan Cheng came over with Shen Mingxi.

Shen Mingxi, who had been tortured for a while, although his injuries had almost recovered now, he had lost a lot of weight, and his eyes had lost the quiet and beautiful light of the past, and he was a little more vigilant and afraid. She was already a little introverted, but now she is even more silent.

Shen Muzhi looked at it, a little distressed. After a moment's thought, the face full of fear suddenly passed through my mind, and my heart suddenly seemed to be choked with chaos, and it was difficult to breathe, and it was extremely depressed.

The corners of his mouth that were about to be hooked just now were like falling a thousand pounds of stones, and he couldn't lift them anymore, even if he had worked hard.

Xuan Cheng saw that he looked strange, so he asked Zhou Yu to take Mingxi around the garden first.

And he pulled Shen Muzhi and walked to the other side.

"What's wrong with you?" asked Xuan Cheng worriedly.

Shen Muzhi lowered his head slightly, looking at the verdant grass under his feet.

They are obviously so fragile and powerless to be trampled on, but they are so tenacious that no matter how many times people trample on them, they will still survive there tenaciously and still exude their vitality.

What about people......

It looks much stronger than these grasses, but it is so fragile, in the blink of an eye, a human life is gone, and you can't pull it back if you want to!

He shook his head and said, "It's nothing, it's just that when I saw Mingxi, I thought of Miss Yuzhi." ”

When Xuan Cheng heard this name, his heart sank, and after sighing secretly, he raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "You can't be blamed for this, you can't blame yourself like this." ”

Shen Muzhi smiled bitterly and did not answer.

Indeed, Yuzhi was not killed by him. He just wounded her badly, tied her there, and turned her into a target for slaughter......

Xuan Cheng knew his mood very well and understood the impact of this matter on him, which could not be eliminated with one or two words of persuasion. All this can only be done by himself, by time.

After patting Shen Muzhi on the shoulder twice, he turned his head to look at Mingxi, who was being led by Zhou Yu to see the little rabbit on the other side, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Your sister, what are you going to arrange?"

When Shen Muzhi heard this, he also turned his head to look at Shen Mingxi, who was squatting down not far away, staring intently at the two little rabbits. The cheek, which had been hidden cautiously, unconsciously relaxed, and there was a less obvious smile.

"Originally, He Xian and I planned to let her stay in the Peach Blossom Forest first. But as you know, the two of us are often absent, and she's still young, so it's not safe to leave her there alone. So I thought, if you don't let her move here, anyway, you can live in this little plum garden, and there is Miss Lin here, they are all girls, maybe they can talk. Xuan Cheng said as he turned his head to look at him.

After hearing this, Shen Muzhi did not hesitate, nodded and said, "Okay, then let her live here." ”

Xuan Cheng saw him respond so quickly, but he felt a little bottomless in his heart, and after his eyes swept around his face, he asked cautiously, "Is it okay to let her stay here?"

Shen Muzhi nodded again: "It's okay." Let's move here. As he spoke, he turned around and walked towards the wooden building.

Seeing this, Xuan Cheng's heart was even more bottomless.

Especially when she remembered that she said just now that she saw Mingxi thinking of Miss Yuzhi, she suddenly felt that this arrangement was not appropriate.

Just as he was about to catch up with Shen Muzhi and discuss the matter again, a soft laugh suddenly came from not far away. Turning her head to look, a bright smile was shining on Shen Mingxi's small cheeks, and Zhou Yu was squatting next to her, not knowing what to say, and the corners of his mouth were also smiling.

Xuan Cheng looked at this scene, hesitated for a moment, and then put away the little thought in his heart.

There are some things that you have to face in order to get over faster.

Shen Mingxi just stayed in Xiaomei Garden.

On Yuhefeng's side, no one has ever expressed their hope that Shen Mingxi will go back, which is normal, after all, Shen Mingxi is only Jinghe's sword servant, not Yuhefeng's disciple.

As for Jinghe, it seems that he is still in confinement.

Shen Muzhi still goes out early and returns late. When I went out, the sky was just dawning, Shen Mingxi hadn't gotten up yet, so I couldn't touch it, and when I came back, it was already the top of the moon, and Shen Mingxi had already rested, and I couldn't touch it. In this way, many days have passed, and the two have never met.

In the blink of an eye, another half moon passed.

Shen Muzhi had already reacted, when the master said that Uncle Yu had gone out of the mountain, it was probably just an excuse, and the purpose was not to want him to go to Yuhe Peak.

This time, he didn't act without authorization, and obediently stayed on Zhengyang Peak, every day Xiaomei Garden, Xiaoling Sword Pavilion, and mountain streams fixed back and forth at three o'clock, in addition to practicing boxing and sword practice, he was sitting on the side of the mountain stream in a daze.

Jinghe came at dusk.

At the foot of the peak, he was bumped into by the senior brother who was on duty that day, and then took him to find Zhou Yu.

As soon as Zhou Yu saw her, he knew that he was here to find Muzhi, and he didn't ask much, and after a few words of greeting, he first sent her to Xiaomei Garden, and then went to the mountain stream, and called Shen Muzhi, who was standing under the waterfall to practice boxing.

"Jinghe is here. Zhou Yu looked at Shen Muzhi, whose upper body was red and his breath was heavy, and frowned slightly. He had seen Shen Muzhi standing in the turbulent water practicing boxing before, but it was the first time he had seen it standing directly at the bottom of the waterfall practicing boxing.

Shen Muzhi likes to practice boxing, and he knows it. But at this level, it doesn't look like it's just for boxing, but more like venting.

Although Zhou Yu's temperament was not as delicate as He Xian and Zhao He, he could still see the depression in Shen Mu's heart, but he didn't know how to persuade him, so he could only sigh secretly.

Shen Muzhi went to the small cabin to change into the prepared clothes, and then followed Zhou Yu and walked towards the small plum garden.

On the way, Zhou Yu wanted to say something several times, but as soon as he turned his head and saw Shen Muzhi's expressionless face, when it came to his mouth, he choked again.

Thinking of what Xuan Cheng had said when he came a few days ago, he finally gave up.

Zhou Yu accompanied Shen Muzhi to the outside of Xiaomei Garden and stopped. Watching Shen Muzhi walk into the forest, he endured all the way, but finally he couldn't hold back and sighed softly.

The breeze swept that sigh and blew into Shen Muzhi's ears.

On that expressionless face, his brows moved slightly, and then quickly returned to calm.

In the Xiaomei Garden, Jing He sat in the lake pavilion, leaning on the railing, looking at the lake dyed reddish by the sunset, a little distracted, not knowing what to think.

Shen Mingxi lowered his head and stood not far behind her, motionless.

And in the distance, beside the clumps of green bamboos, a straight black figure also stood there motionless, looking at the lake pavilion.

Suddenly, her brow moved slightly, and she turned her head to look at Merlin. I saw a slender figure, striding out of the plum forest, it was Shen Muzhi.

In the glow, this young man with a delicate face had a lonely gaze and a cold body.

Lin Changying wanted to turn around and leave, but for some reason, her feet moved, but she only stepped back slightly, and her body disappeared into the shadow cast by the bamboo forest next to her, and then stopped.

In the lake pavilion, Jing He also raised his head and saw Shen Muzhi who was walking towards this side, and after just one glance, he frowned slightly.

When he walked outside the pavilion, Shen Mingxi, who had been standing in the lake pavilion, suddenly noticed that he was coming, raised his head slightly, glanced at him a little timidly, and then quickly lowered his head, and then walked a few steps to the side and stood in the corner.

She seemed to be afraid of him.

It wasn't like that before.

Shen Muzhi only glanced at her, then turned his head to look at Jinghe, who had already turned around.

She hadn't changed much.

"She won't go to Jade and Peak again. Without waiting for Jing He to speak, Shen Muzhi took the lead in speaking. A calm voice, with an undeniable domineering.

Jing He frowned, stared at Shen Muzhi, and after turning his gaze on that expressionless face, he said, "She is my sword servant, where to go, it's up to you to decide!"

"She's my sister, and it's not Jinling. Shen Muzhi took the words, and there was still no room for it.

Jinghe stood up, her height was less than Shen Muzhi's chest, but as she stood up, a compelling momentum awakened on her, which was her innate momentum as a princess.

"What if I have to take it?" the slightly muffled voice was also overbearing with no beak.

If it had been placed in the past, Shen Muzhi might have retreated because of the retaliation entanglement behind her. But now he is no longer what he used to be.

"You can't beat me!" Shen Muzhi replied calmly, so calm that Jing He clenched his fists suddenly, and his teeth itched with hatred.

"Shen Muzhi!" she suddenly raised her voice.

"If you have nothing else to do, please go back, it's not early" As he spoke, Shen Muzhi had already turned around: "I'll send you out." ”

This kind of contempt for not putting her in his eyes made Jinghe extremely angry. She suddenly sneered and said, "Shen Muzhi, don't you know what my imperial brother is for arranging for Mingxi to be my sword attendant and follow me into the mountain?"

Shen Muzhi was about to take a step, but he paused slightly, but he still stepped out.

Regarding Jinghe's question, he didn't mean to answer.

Seeing him like this, Jing He became even more angry, and suddenly turned his head to glare at Shen Mingxi who was standing in the corner: "Are you going with me?"

Shen Mingxi's body trembled slightly, and he was entangled, when he suddenly heard Shen Muzhi's voice coming: "It's okay if you want to go with her, but as long as you step out of here today, I won't interfere in your affairs in the future." ”

Shen Mingxi's body was shocked, there was a trace of panic in his eyes, and his eyes subconsciously fell on the back of Shen Muzhi, who had already walked out of the pavilion.

"Third Brother ......"

The gentle murmur, with fragility, but also with entanglement and helplessness, made the coldness on Shen Muzhi's body suddenly lose a trace.

"I'm sorry ......"

Another murmur, full of guilt.

Shen Muzhi's body stiffened, and his footsteps suddenly stopped.

"Princess, I'll go with you. Shen Mingxi turned his head to look at Jinghe and said in a low voice.

Shen Muzhi, who was facing away from them, frowned tightly, and quickly let go. He didn't say anything, but the coldness on his body was stronger than before.

Shen Mingxi quickly packed up his things, and Shen Muzhi sent the two of them outside the forest, and without saying a word, he turned around and went back to Meilin.

"Bastard!" Outside the forest, Jing He stomped his feet and scolded hatefully after watching Shen Muzhi's back disappear into the dim merlin.

Shen Mingxi was beside him, lowered his head slightly, and said softly: "The third brother has been very uncomfortable recently, princess, don't scold him." ”

When Jing He heard this, his expression froze, and then the anger on his face suddenly dissipated.

Then, she turned her head to look at Mingxi, a flash of struggle flashed in her eyes, and then she said softly: "Mingxi, I'm sorry for bothering you." ”

Mingxi shook his head, trying to squeeze a smile out of the corner of his mouth, and said, "It's none of your business, princess. ”

"Forget it, let's go. After Jinghe sighed, he looked up at the sky, and suddenly his face was a little more sad: "It's getting dark, it's going to take a long time to walk back to Yuhe Peak here! We have to go faster, can you?"

"Okay. Shen Mingxi replied softly, and his feet had already followed.

However, the two didn't go far when they suddenly met Zhou Yu.

Seeing Shen Mingxi following Jinghe with the package on his back, Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, and then understood. After the three of them greeted each other, Zhou Yu smiled and asked, "Can someone come to pick you up?"

Jinghe shook his head: "I know the way." ”

Zhou Yu replied: "Otherwise, I'll send you, it's almost dark this day, and it is not safe for you two little girls to walk the mountain road at night." ”

When Jing He heard this, he didn't twist, and nodded in response.

Then, Zhou Yu left Zhengyang Peak with the two of them, and before it was completely dark, he arrived at Yuhe Peak. After sending the two of them to the peak and handing them over to the junior sister who was in charge of guarding, he returned to Zhengyang Peak.
