After dinner, Shen Wei came to visit Shen Muping, and Shen Muzhi took the opportunity to mention Wang Qi's matter to him.

Shen Wei agreed without hesitation.

Shen Muzhi said thank you.

When Shen Wei heard these two words, his face changed, his eyes looked at the son in front of him who now made him feel very strange, smiled bitterly, and said, "Between our father and son, there is no need to be so polite. ”

Shen Muzhi did not answer.

Shen Wei looked at him, his heart was extremely complicated. It's guilty, it's gratifying, and it's strange at the same time.

Guilty is that he, as a father, is not able to find out the truth of the matter in time after his eldest son's accident, but still allows others to frame his younger son and is indifferent.

Since that conversation between the camp of Qishi Valley and Mu Ping, many times when he had insomnia in the middle of the night, he would sit on the edge of the bed and start thinking, how he escaped from Jinling at that time, and how he escaped to Qishi Valley, not only escaped those pursuits and survived, but followed the three princes to the camp, concealed his identity, and went to Dayuan without hesitation. In the end, Mu Ping was really rescued from Dayuan......

How did he come over these few months?

As Mu Ping said, he is only twelve years old!

In Jinling City, most of the twelve-year-old boys are still messing around outside the house, even those powerful families, twelve-year-old boys are still under the protection of their parents. But his son, at the age of twelve, has already experienced the framing of others, the betrayal of his relatives, the sea of swords and blood, and the sinister human nature.

Many times, he thought about this, and his eyes turned red when he thought about it.

Mu Ping is right, it is his father who has done too much to disappoint.

It's just that it is gratifying that he, a disappointing father, has such a competitive son.

At the age of twelve, he can be on his own, and he dares to enter the camp of 10,000 people alone.

However, the son who was so competitive finally broke away from him.

He has the heart to make up for it, but what can he do......

Shen Wei thought of this, sighed secretly, and then, the topic changed, and said, "Your eldest brother has already mentioned the matter between you and Qingguo. Where do you want to do it? at home, or at a restaurant outside?"

Shen Muzhi didn't think about it, so he replied, "Let's go to the restaurant outside." ”

"It's fine. Although Shen Muzhi's answer was actually expected, Shen Wei's mood was still a little lost. He looked at Shen Muzhi, and the son wearing the mask couldn't see the expression on his face, so he smiled helplessly and prepared to leave. Suddenly, someone from outside the courtyard came in, saying that there was a Taoist priest from outside the door, looking for Lin Gongzi.

When Shen Muyi heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly walked out.

Shen Wei also reacted to who this Taoist priest was, and immediately followed.

At the door of the house, Xuan Cheng, who was wearing a black robe, was carrying a long sword and a mixed yuan scarf, standing at the foot of the steps with a straight posture, and when Shen Muzhi passed, he was looking up at the lanterns hanging on both sides of the door.

Hearing the footsteps, he withdrew his gaze and looked at Shen Muzhi, and after seeing Shen Muzhi's face, he was stunned for a moment, and then frowned.

At that time, although Shen Muzhi mentioned in the letter that he was now under the pseudonym Lin Xuan, he forgot to explain that he was still wearing a mask.

After a few months, seeing Xuancheng Daoist again, Shen Muzhi had a feeling of being separated from the world. He is still like that, with a little cold arrogance on his face, but in fact, he is chivalrous and kind in his bones.

The joy in my heart, as if the trees and flowers that had been suffering for months in the cold winter suddenly met the warm spring light, all of them sprouted at once, and they couldn't be suppressed.

"Mu ......" was so excited that he almost missed his mouth, but fortunately there was no one else around. Shen Muzhi took a breath, suppressed his excitement, and said in a clear voice: "Lin Xuan has seen the Dao Chief. ”

Xuan Cheng heard that he called himself Lin Xuan, and he was puzzled in his heart, and after frowning at him for a while, he asked, "Are you Lin Xuan?"

After Shen Mu was stunned, he suddenly remembered that his current face was not what it was at the beginning, and he hurriedly lowered his voice and explained: "It's up to someone else, I have to change my face, I can't see the Taoist chief with my true face, and I hope the Taoist chief will forgive me." ”

After hearing this, Xuan Cheng looked at him indifferently, and then said, "Are you going to let me stand outside all the time?"

When Shen Muzhi heard this, he hurriedly welcomed him in.

As soon as the two entered the door, they ran into Shen Wei who was waiting in the door.

"This is ......" Shen Muzhi hesitated for a moment before continuing: "Shen Wei, the general of Zhenxi, is also Shen Muping's father. ”

Shen Wei bowed his hand: "Thank you Dao Chang for being willing to come all the way to help, this kindness Shen Wei must remember in his heart." ”

Xuan Cheng returned the salute and said lightly: "The general doesn't have to be like this, I came here because I was invited by Lin Gongzi, and if I really want to talk about kindness, it is also a matter between me and Lin Gongzi, and General Shen doesn't have to take it to heart." ”

Xuan Cheng's blunt and detached way of dialogue made Shen Wei a little uncomfortable, and after being stunned, he smiled awkwardly and said, "Dao Chief, please." ”

Xuan Cheng said: "General Shen can go and get busy, and Gongzi Lin can accompany me." ”

Shen Wei became more and more embarrassed, looked at Daoist Xuancheng, and then at Shen Muzhi, and had no choice but to say, "Then I won't bother the two." If anything, call me at any time. ”

Shen Muzhi nodded.

Shen Wei left, and Shen Muzhi took Xuan Cheng to Chunxi Garden.

"What's the situation, why don't you even dare to show your face?" When there was no one around, Xuan Cheng glanced at his face and said in disgust.

Shen Muzhi shrugged helplessly and said, "It's a long story. However, now I wear this mask, mainly because I don't want the people who framed me in the first place to know that I am still alive. In this case, it will be slightly more beneficial to my side. ”

"How did your eldest brother come back?" asked Xuan Cheng again.

Shen Muzhi smiled, turned his head to look at him, and his eyes were a little proud: "If I say that I rescued him, do you believe it?"

Xuan Cheng stared at his eyes for a while, groaned, and said, "I believe it." ”

"Really?" Shen Muzhi asked rhetorically.

Xuan Cheng shrugged his shoulders and said, "After all, only a fool like you would be willing to do such a life-or-death thing, isn't it?"

"Do you think I'm stupid?" Shen Muzhi asked him seriously.

Xuan Cheng nodded: "If you are not stupid, there will be no stupid people in this world!" As he spoke, the words suddenly changed again: "However, there is always a need for stupid people like you in this world, otherwise the world will be too boring." ”

Shen Muzhi looked at him, and after the sentence in his mouth lingered for a while, he swallowed it again.

He wanted to say that in fact, he and the Xuandao Commander were just like him, quite stupid. Even, stupider than him.

At the very least, what he is fighting for is his eldest brother.

And what they have to protect regardless of their safety is him, a stranger who is not related by blood.

At the beginning, for the sake of him, a stranger, the head of the Xuan channel was gone.

Now, with a letter from him, Xuan Cheng came.

Shen Muzhi suddenly thought, how can he be virtuous and how can he meet people like Xuandao Commander and Xuancheng?

Not only that, but he also met Miss Lin, Brother He Xian, and Qingguo......

Along the way, if he hadn't met them, he would have lost his eighteen lives. Thinking about it from this point of view, God seems to be very kind to him.

Thinking like this, Shen Muzhi laughed.

Next to him, Xuan Cheng noticed it and asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Shen Muzhi replied: "It's nothing. It's just fun. I'm glad you can come. ”

Xuan Cheng snorted: "I just can't see what my senior brother exchanged for his life ruined in the hands of others!"

Shen Muzhi smiled even more happily.

He was really happy.

In Chunxi Garden, Qingguo, who had already learned the news, pushed Shen Muping to wait under the eaves, and after seeing Shen Muzhi come in with Xuancheng, after some greetings, Shen Muzhi first pushed Shen Muping back to the room to settle down, and then sent Xuancheng to his room, and after cleaning up a little, he sat down with Xuancheng and Qingguo around a small round table.

In front of Shen Muping just now, Xuan Cheng didn't say anything, Shen Muping was not next to him at this moment, Xuan Cheng looked at Qingguo who was sitting next to Shen Muzhi, and his eyes suddenly became cold.

"You're not human!" A sentence came out coldly, which immediately shocked Qingguo and Shen Muzhi.

Qingguo became nervous all of a sudden, and on that lovely face, it was like frost in an instant, and the golden light in his eyes loomed, and the hostility grew stronger.

Seeing that this was wrong, Shen Muzhi immediately reacted, first reaching out and grabbing Qingguo's small hand that had been clenched into a fist in his leg.

Being held by him like this, the tense momentum on Qingguo's body immediately eased a little.

Then, Shen Muzhi hurriedly said to Xuan Cheng: "She will be my wife soon." ”

This sentence was blurted out by Shen Mu in a hurry.

Qingguo blushed instantly.

Xuan Cheng was stunned, looked at Qingguo, and then at Shen Muzhi, frowned for a while, and said angrily: "Do you know what she is?"

Shen Muzhi frowned, Xuan Cheng's tone made him feel slightly uncomfortable. But he also knew that Xuan Cheng was the kind of person with a hard mouth and a soft heart, and his reaction was so fierce, it was just people's natural resistance to demons.

Thinking about it, Shen Muzhi suppressed the discomfort in his heart and explained: "I know! Don't get excited, can you listen to my explanation?"

Xuan Cheng looked at Shen Muzhi, then at Qingguo, hesitated for a moment, and said, "You explain." ”

On Xuancheng's side, Shen Muzhi has nothing to hide. So, he told Xuan Cheng about his experience after he was separated from Xuan Cheng.

Hearing Shen Muzhi say that Qingguo came out of the mountain range at the border of Jinyuan, the expression on Xuan Cheng's face suddenly became a little strange.

It's just that although Shen Muzhi saw it, he didn't care, thinking that it was just that Xuan Cheng was still struggling with Qingguo's identity.

After Shen Muzhi finished speaking, Xuan Cheng didn't speak for a while. After a long time, he suddenly looked up at Qingguo, frowned and was silent for a while, and suddenly asked, "You said before that she almost died to save you, and she was seriously injured at that time?"

Shen Muzhi nodded: "Hmm." ”

"Then how is her injury so serious?" Xuan Cheng asked again.

Shen Muzhi replied: "It was the woman in white I met at the beginning who came to the rescue. ”

When Xuan Cheng heard this, he stared at Qingguo and said in a deep voice: "According to your description, she basically couldn't survive her injuries at that time. As far as I know, no matter how powerful the woman in white is, there is only one way for her to live......" Speaking of this, Xuan Cheng suddenly paused, and then his eyes sharpened, and he shouted towards Qingguo: "Do you say it yourself, or do I say it?"

Qingguo stared at him, his face a little ugly.

Shen Muzhi didn't know why, looked at Qingguo, and then at Xuancheng, the little displeasure in his heart couldn't be suppressed, frowned and said, "Dao Chief, what are you doing here?"

Xuan Cheng didn't hear it, just stared at Qingguo.

Seeing this, Shen Muzhi hesitated for a moment, then said to Qingguo: "Qingguo, you go back and rest first." I'll have a few separate words with the Taoist. ”

Qingguo's gaze moved away from Xuan Cheng, and after looking at Shen Muyi, he nodded.

At this time, Xuan Cheng shouted again: "If you don't confess now, when do you want to wait?"

Qingguo's body trembled slightly, and Shen Muzhi couldn't help but be about to speak, but at this moment, Qingguo suddenly grabbed Shen Muzhi's arm and stopped his words.
