Chi Xiaoming pushed the door into the inner room, there was still a medicine jar sitting on the stove, the room was full of sour and bitter taste, and he sat on the footstool next to the couch in a daze, holding Mu Jiangcuo's hand tightly.

Chi Xiaoming covered the door by himself, pulled his sleeves to brush the dust off the round stool, and then sat down, staring at the fascination quietly for a long time before finally speaking.

"Tea?"

"Xianggong, are you thirsty, do you want to drink tea?"

"Taishan Fujun said that his soul did not belong to Taishan. Chi Xiaoming continued.

"Didn't I say it a long time ago, my father-in-law didn't die, didn't he always fall asleep here, that Taishan land, it's not good to bother more. Fanxin finally turned his head to look at him, very impatient, "Don't go to the east anymore for the life you picked up, the vitality has not yet recovered intact, which will damage the longevity." ”

"Crazy girl, it's good for me to accompany you to find him. Chi Xiaoming sighed softly and said again.

"It's just that the injury is a little more serious, and it hasn't eased yet, this guy has always been like this, he likes to make excuses for snooze when he is injured, I want to accompany him, you don't have to worry too much, did Bai Po's medicine bring me?"

"Girl, you," Chi Xiaoming wanted to say again.

"I know!" Interrupting Chi Xiaoming's words with a frown, his tone was suddenly cold, and after a while, he returned to normal, and said, "Don't say more, go back." ”

"You..." Chi Xiaoming paused, still didn't say anything, put the medicine bag he brought in the corner of the wall, pushed open the door, and only looked back and said, "I'm leaving." ”

For Chi Xiaoming's departure, Fan Xin turned a blind eye, and only gazed at Mu Jiangcuo who was lying quietly on the couch. Afraid that the cold wind that poured in at the moment he just pushed the door made him feel cold, he started to hold the brocade quilt tighter for him, and his left hand was always staggered with Mu Jiang, and he never let go of half a minute, even though the thick palm he clenched had become a dry bone.

It has been nearly ten years since the rebellion in the other north, the wings of the other north have fallen, the heart has fallen into grief, and several times the soul of re-entering the Taishan District of the East to find Mu Jiang has failed, and then it began to slump, and he and Mu Jiang are locked in the small courtyard on Southwest Street, and no longer ask about the world, but if an outsider dares to step into the courtyard, he will be shot away mercilessly.

The lord of the city fell into a coma, the governor of the city died, and he resigned from his post in a daze, and the affairs of the whole city suddenly fell on the shoulders of the ceremonial master who was only in charge of civil affairs, which made him cry bitterly.

In the third year after the reshaping of the spirit body, Chi Xiaoming finally woke up, and his spiritual sense was intact and unmissing. At this point, the city of the other north has finally returned to stability.

After returning to Yibei, Chi Xiaoming's temperament was no longer so irritable, but he returned to the original gentle and warm, and in the next ten years, Yibei City returned to its previous calm.

The youthful Tao Yi lost his temper after Mu Jiang left wrongly, he was a lot more stable, he spoke and did things without leakage, and he could be regarded as a soldier, and most of the soldiers in the city lost most of the guards, and Tao Yi took over Mu Jiang and became the city governor.

He has always been reluctant to enter the city governor's mansion, and only lives in the southwest street, living in the same courtyard with several guards and brothers in the southwest street.

When I have time, Tao Yi will always go to the small hall of the city governor's mansion to sit down, the chores in the house are all specially cleaned maids to do, the north of the country has been in turmoil for ten years, and no one has stepped into this place of the city lord's mansion, although it is said that the front of the door is deserted, but every festival, the flowers and incense candles on the door of the house are always too many to put down, so they are placed along the courtyard wall, every year, every year the lights are bright, and the people of the city of Yibei have never forgotten him.

After Tao Yi took office, Chi Xiaoming originally wanted to give him another courtyard, but Tao Yi insisted on asking Chi Xiaoming for the key to the City Governor's Mansion, and politely refused Chi Xiaoming's proposal to send some cleaning maids, took two days off, and cleaned the three-foot mansion by himself. This is where Mu Jiangcuo used to live, and he doesn't want to be messed up by others.

The people of the other north know that they have gone into the east several times to find the soul of Mujiangcuo, but to no avail, they can't think of it, so they close the door.

After Chi Xiaoming woke up, he would personally visit Mount Tai every year, and even if he insisted on it so far, he still didn't find out half of the news about Mu Jiang's mistakes.

Fanxin insisted that Mu Jiang was wrong and did not die, and Tao Yi thought so in his heart.

He can't enter the courtyard on Southwest Street, so he can only guard this mansion, even if Mu Jiangcuo has lived here for a few days, but if Mu Jiangcuo passes by this gate one day, he feels some familiarity to come in and see, find him, or find the real way home, then it will be excellent.

"That's all for today, go back and rest. Chi Xiaoming leaned on his seat, threw the last volume in his hand on the table, and rubbed the corners of his forehead, slightly tired.

"Lord Castle, my subordinates have something to ask for," Momoichi knelt on his knees, "private matter." ”

"Say,"

"My subordinates want to see the former city governor. "A peach.

"No, you can't. Chi Xiaoming did not hesitate at all, and directly refused.

"Yes," this is not the first time Tao Yi has made this request, every time he is rejected by Chi Xiaoming, he has already guessed the result, and he bowed and stepped back in a proper manner, saying, "The subordinates retired,"

When Mu Jiang was a night guard soldier on Southwest Street, Tao Yi was a hairy boy who had just entered Southwest Street, and he caused a lot of trouble when he was young and frivolous, and after being brushed by Mu Jiang many times, he began to follow him all the time, treating him as a big brother to worship.

Tao Yi has no parents, he was raised by his sister-in-law in the temple, and when he was young, he had a great temper and disobeyed discipline, so he was sent to the guard, and he relied on the face of his sister-in-law in the North City, and after Tao Yi and Lu Lan had a few shouts with Lu Lan on North Street, he was still kicked out of North Street and sent to a barren place like Southwest Street, where the old, young, sick and disabled, received a job with no future.

Then Mu Jiang mistakenly became the city governor, and Tao Yi was also recommended by Luo Chan and was promoted to the head of the soldiers on Southwest Street.

When Mu Jiangcuo fell from the Yibei Bell Tower and died in front of him, Tao's mind was blank, and at that time he only knew that the pillar that stood up to the sky and the earth was broken.

The pillar that held the sky was broken, and the sky fell.

After Tao Yi finished patrolling the street, he went to the small hall of the City Governor's Mansion to sit for a while as usual, and then got up and went back to the courtyard of Southwest Street to rest.

Every time he passed by the despicable courtyard that had lost its warmth, Momoichi couldn't help but stop for a moment, even if he would throw him far away because he was so angry.

On that day, Mu Jiangcuo died because he was drained of life, his meridians were broken, his internal organs were injured, and he lacked skills to return to heaven. The fan tried all means to recover Mujiang's mistakes, but unfortunately all failed, and chased Mount Tai several times, but still found nothing. After a few days of silence, the obsessed heart took the body of Mu Jiangcuo to visit Mount Tai again, this time to the east, a few months before returning, the expression is as indifferent as ever.

It was from that day that he and Mu Jiang were mistakenly locked in the courtyard on Southwest Street, sealed the courtyard door, and never took half a step again.

Tao Yi had rushed in countless times, and was thrown out countless times, no matter how hard he tried, for decades, he had never stepped into the courtyard gate for half a step, he begged Chi Xiaoming countless times, but even if Chi Xiaoming had the heart to take him with him, the courtyard door had not yet been pushed open, and he had already had the strength to knock him out with killing intent.

The obsessed heart has gone crazy because of Mu Jiang's wrong death.

After going back and forth around the courtyard a few times, and after feeling the increasingly strong killing intent, Momoichi still retreated.

"Momoichi, I'm back. Luo Chan was sweeping the snow on the ground of the small street, Xu was in a hurry, twisted the wine jug, tilted his neck and poured a big mouthful, and carefully screwed the lid of the pot, carefully put it into his arms, and saw Tao Yi drooping his eyebrows and kicking two handfuls of snow, and opened his mouth to greet him.

"Brother Luo Chan. As soon as the peach came back to his senses, he saluted and called people in a regular manner.

"Don't don't, the city governor's courtesy is really unbearable," Luo Chan also hurriedly bowed down and sighed slightly, "When I first saw you, this little devil, I never thought that one day you would be able to behave like this." ”

"Brother Luo Chan said with a smile,"

"Would you like to drink some?" Luo Chan asked as he took out the flask in his arms again.

Peach nodded a little, took it and poured a big mouthful. The spicy taste entered my throat, I coughed violently, choked tears, and looked hazy at the past, where it was still a lively scene full of lights...

...

The young man's peach was holding a gourd and drinking very happily, which was the sweet juice of the fruit peach that he had come back from the south, and he was sitting on the brocade stool in the small hall with his feet crossed, surrounded by some busy people.

The small courtyard is not big, the banquet table has been placed on the street, the city lord Chi Xiaoming personally made an enchantment, and gathered the entire Yibei City, on this day, he avoided the wind and snow in the Yibei and changed the greenery and flowers throughout the city, just because his beloved sister was going to get married.

Mu Jiang was wearing a big red wedding dress, and the stunned pestle grinned at the gate of the courtyard, the festive color lined him more and more stupidly, Chi Xiaoming sat on the main seat with a pale face, it can be seen that he was forcibly resisting the urge to rush up and kick a few feet, after all, it is his sister-in-law's big day, and he can't see blood!

"Mu Jiang mistakenly came here..."Chi Xiaoming said.

"What do you have to tell the city lord?" Mu Jiang jumped over to curry favor with his eldest brother...

As soon as Tao saw Chi Xiaoming's face squeeze out a fierce smile, and after whispering a few words to Mu Jiangcuo, Mu Jiangcuo drooped his ears and sat down beside Chi Xiaoming in a proper manner, but the smirk on his face did not converge for half a minute.

Momoichi could guess the content of this conversation, it was nothing more than that the lord of the city felt that it was very embarrassing to recruit such a stupid brother-in-law, and besides, as the master's family, why did he have to do these reception work, probably to warn him to sit down in peace, and not to make some unceremonious actions that would make him and his heart embarrassed.

It was very noisy outside the hall, but it was very quiet inside the hall, uh, of course, to get rid of the smirk that Mu Jiang suddenly let out from time to time.

Mu Jiangcuo solemnly warned Tao Yi a few days in advance, asking him to put away that dog temper, and he would definitely not be able to conflict with people on this day, Tao nodded and responded. In fact, Tao Yi felt that Mu Jiang's wrong reminder was superfluous, his stupid eldest brother was finally able to marry a daughter-in-law, and his sister-in-law was a peerless beauty with both ability and political integrity.

After drinking the sweet juice of the fruit and peach in the gourd, Peach shook the gourd at Mu Jiang by mistake, Mu Jiang saw it by mistake, and carefully looked sideways at Chi Xiaoming, who was sitting on the side with a powerful aura, and found that the latter did not pay attention to himself, so he carefully replied to Tao: first shook his head and nodded, signaling him not to move first, and help him get a new one for a while.

And these actions were coherent in Tao Yi's eyes, thinking that what Mu Jiang said was wrong: because Chi Xiaoming was not good at acting by his side, he encouraged himself to go to the back kitchen to find it.

So Tao Yi nodded rigorously, jumped off the chair with the gourd and turned around and left, not seeing Mu Jiangcuo who was desperately waving his hand behind him and shaking his head to tell him to go back and sit down.

As soon as Chi Xiaoming coughed, Mu Jiangcuo hurriedly sat down, as if nothing had happened.
