"Don't do it, third brother. If you push it off, your father will be angry. Do you dislike partnering with your second brother, or do you not want to listen to your father?"

"Second brother, don't say that, Zhuo Yan has always respected his father and second brother, how dare he disobey his father's words. ”

"That's not it! A manly man can't be afraid to do things!"

"Your second brother is right, Zhuo Yan, just let it go, your father is optimistic about you. ”

"Thank you for your father and second brother's appreciation. "At this point, Zhuo Yan can't shirk it anymore, otherwise it will only attract more attention. For sixteen years, he has been playing the role of an incompetent scrap material, just to avoid the situation like today. But after all, he still couldn't escape Zhuo Jinan's suspicions, no matter what, he wanted to send him down this road.

"It's all a family, and there's nothing to appreciate or not appreciate. "Zhuo Jinan" In a few days, a batch of goods will be taken at the wharf in the western suburbs, and then you can follow your second brother. ”

"Yes, father. ”

"Hmm. "Zhuo Jinan" Steward Zhang, go and bring the things over. ”

"Yes. Master. ”

"Eat, and don't forget that today is the sun. ”

"Yes. ”

Zhuo Zihan and Zhuo Yan were planted with poisonous Gu by Zhuo Jinan sixteen years ago. One is a cold ice Gu, the other is a burning heart Gu, one cold and one hot, ice and fire are incompatible. It is the weighing and containment of the two forces, and it is also an endless open and secret struggle. Those who have been planted with Gu, if they want to survive, there are only two ways to go. First, either find an antidote to Gu poison, or rely on medicine to continue life. If he didn't, what awaited him would be tortured to death by poisonous Gu.

Obviously, Zhuo Jinan wants to contain them and control them. From that day on, the Zhuo family will hold a family feast on the fifteenth day of every month. And the day of the family banquet was also the day when Zhuo Zihan and Zhuo Yan received the life-sustaining medicine. After receiving the medicine, they will be taken to the secret room for blood...

"Sir. Soon Steward Zhang returned, followed by a maid carrying a tray covered with red flannel.

"Go ahead. Zhuo Jinan ordered lightly.

"Yes. Steward Zhang raised his hand to lift the red flannel cloth, and the two small square boxes, one red and one blue, came into view. After he took the blue box to Zhuo Zihan, he took the red box to Zhuo Yan, "Two young masters, this month's Raw Moth Pill is already here." Please also ask the two young masters to take the pill after the meal. ”

"Well, thank you, father. Two voices rang out in unison.

Zhuo Jinan nodded, "I've finished eating for my father, you two eat slowly." Steward Zhang, go back to the room. ”

"Yes. Steward Zhang took the crutches and gave him the post, and walked beside him to support him.

"Father walks slowly. Zhuo Zihan and Zhuo Yan got up and watched Zhuo Jinan leave.

After seeing Zhuo Jinan's figure, Zhuo Zihan looked back at the blue locket on the table. He reached out and picked up the box, and without hesitation, he lifted the lid, took out the blue pill inside, and threw the pill into his mouth as if he were eating jelly beans, and even chewed it directly without mixing it with water!

"Why hasn't the third brother eaten yet?" Seeing that Zhuo Yan hadn't opened the medicine box yet, Zhuo Zihan raised his eyebrows.

Zhuo Yan shook his head, and after taking out the pill, like Zhuo Zihan, he directly chewed it and swallowed it.

"Two young masters, please. Seeing that both of them had taken the pill, the maid stepped forward to guide them.

After coming out of the dining room, there was a long palace-style corridor, and after walking for more than ten minutes, the maid who led the way stopped in a room, "Two young masters, please." ”

The maid opened the door for them, and the two of them entered, a bright laboratory, full of white and white, with all kinds of experimental facilities on the experimental table. Seeing them come in, Steward Zhang greeted them, instructed the maid to step back, and took Zhuo Zihan and Zhuo Yan to the depths of the laboratory. Until he stopped in front of a large shelf, Steward Zhang raised his hand to enter fingerprints on it, only to hear a dinging sound to unlock, and the large shelf began to move towards the side, revealing a secret door.

Behind the secret door is a bottomless handrailless spiral staircase, an ancient masonry structure. It was dark inside, with only a few dim oil lamps permeated by the mossy stone walls.

Steward Zhang was the first to walk in, and the old hand groped on the stone wall by the staircase, only to hear a dripping sound, and the blue brick and stone wall moved to both sides, and it was a hidden elevator door!

"Two young masters, be careful, the light here is dark, and the humidity is great, and the floor is mossy and slippery. ”

"Hmm. ”

"Let's go inside. Steward Zhang walked into the elevator first and blocked the door for them with one hand.

Moments later, the elevator numbers freeze at minus 10 floors, and then the doors open automatically.

After the three of them stepped out of the elevator, the elevator door slowly closed, and it reverted to an old wall covered with moss.

Coming out of the elevator, there is another corridor where you can't see your fingers. Steward Zhang turned on the lamp in his hand to illuminate them. There is no end in sight to the corridor leader, and the flashlight in Steward Zhang's hand alone is not enough to light up the surrounding environment. It is this contrast of light and dark that makes the empty hallway look even more terrifying. It's obviously a closed basement, but you can always feel a seeping cool breeze, and the sound of dripping water, this is completely the rhythm of shooting robbers!

"I remember that the third brother was a coward who was afraid of the dark when he was a child. Zhuo Zihan suddenly spoke.

"I remember the second brother too. ”

"Now, are you afraid?"

"Is the second brother afraid?"

"Jokes, how could I be afraid. As if he had been poked in the heart, Zhuo Zihan hurriedly denied it.

"Yes, we've all grown up. It's not that dark coward for a long time. ”

The temperature in the basement is already lower than the temperature on the surface, and with this sizzling cool breeze, the taste is really sour! Zhuo Zihan pursed his lips, and suddenly spoke again, "I remember that Ran Ran is the most timid coward, she always cries." ”

"Hmm. ”

"And Ling'er, both of them are crybabys. ”

"Hmm. ”

"But Ling'er doesn't like to cry now, Ran Ran must still love to cry. ”

Zhuo Yan shook her head: "She doesn't cry anymore." ”

"Why?" Zhuo Zihan looked sideways at him.

"Two young masters, it's here. At this time, Steward Zhang suddenly stopped. As just now, after groping on the flat wall, the stone wall soon opened to both sides, and a secret room suddenly appeared.

"It's here. Zhuo Yan didn't look at his gaze, nor did he answer his question, but walked into the secret room with his legs raised.

"You haven't..." to answer my question... Zhuo Zihan stretched out his hand and wanted to grab him, but after seeing his resolute back, the words were stuck in his throat, making him unable to speak...

Zhuo Zi's cold eyes flickered, his hand that was frozen in mid-air was slowly put down, looking at his back, there seemed to be an indescribable sourness in his heart...

"Second Young Master, come in. ”

Steward Zhang's voice pulled Zhuo Zihan's thoughts back, he hooked his lips bitterly and shook his head, as if he was laughing at his own thoughts.

Sour?

It's impossible in this life.

They are destined to live only one.

Either Caesar or nothing.
