Another private room in Sweet Water Lane, green mountains and green waters, birdsong is light and pleasant, and there is a waterfall, hanging high above the blue sky and bright moon.

Meandering, a strange road hidden from the peaks of the rocks, you can occasionally see the turquoise mountain stream, the spring water is tinkling, and there is a bamboo tea fragrance coming out of it.

"Mr. Zhao, since you have visited me many times, can Qing Ling think that I have such a good skin, which will make you, the high-ranking commander of Beiyu, fall in love with it. ”

The girl stroked the strings on the piano surface, staring at the middle-aged man who was happy with the piano in the mountain stream, her eyes were uneasy, but she said in a very calm whisper, just anyone who listened, and the alienated and cold words were a little cold.

Miss Xu said with a smile, Zhao Mou only wanted to get one thing back when he came here, and in this blue world, I think only Miss Xu has it. ”

Mr. Zhao listened to the awkward words coming out of his mouth, and his heart was a little heavy, which made the middle-aged man look a little strange when he didn't leave the sound of the piano.

"Looking for something from me, will Mr. Zhao look up to me too much, I'm just a dusty woman who is hurt by love, how can anything get into your eyes." ”

Xu Qingling's hand trembled slightly, his eyes were a little self-deprecating, he walked to the side and sat down, put the piano flat, took a deep breath, and his jade fingers began to fluctuate on the guqin, very smooth. Accompanied by the guqin, the gentle and somewhat sad sound of the qin flows slowly

"Since Mr. Zhao spent a lot of money to let Ling'er accompany you, Ling'er

Naturally, I can't soothe your interest, this Sweet Water Alley knows that I Xu Qingling is not selling my body, and there are always gossiping outsiders who say that I am already a Qinglou, why do I think very highly of myself. I don't know what Mr. Zhao thinks of Ling'er. ”

Her jade fingers gently plucked every sigh on the strings, concentrating and calming, as if she was in the world of the sound of the piano, but the woman who had been contaminated with a lot of fireworks in the wind and dust, how could she be alone in this quagmire-like red dust.

Miss Xu is serious, Zhao is really not interested in the things that are spread outside, but I just think that Miss Xu is in love, but since Miss Xu can be alone in this Sweet Water Lane, it can only be said that Miss Xu is not so low, after all, this is the girl's heart, no matter how curious Zhao is, he will not ask more. ”

Mr. Zhao laughed, held the turquoise wine pot again, and drank the sake with a strong tea fragrance in the pot against the mouth of the pot, but it was accompanied by his rough and heroic laughter echoing in the valley, breaking the artistic conception of the geese passing through the phonograph in the body of the piano.

"Let's move things around, I think this Beiyu Commander will come to this small place in Qingshui City, I'm afraid it is for the secret treasure that Tianyuan left for the rest of his life, and pay more attention, a few unfamiliar faces who have frequently traveled to and from Sweetwater Lane these days, I think Qingshui City will not be so calm in a long time." ”

Putting away the piano in her arms, she walked to an inconspicuous stone gate in the mountain stream with a solemn expression, and then pushed aside the wild flowers that grew in front of the stone gate.

Three days later

"Young Master Lin, you must save my son. "In the main hall of Tianbao Pavilion, the shopkeeper Zhao, who is bloated, but has a lot of clothes all over his body, has a somewhat greasy look, and has changed his domineering appearance in the past, in front of a young man who is not known how many generations younger than himself, like a fox who is used to being powerful behind a tiger, he has lost his reliance, and he is a bit like a sheep that has lost its edges and corners.

"Your son made a mistake in the Chamber of Commerce. and indirectly caused us to lose an important guest, we didn't hold you to blame, it is already the head of the head that you have taken care of the Tianbao Pavilion in the past few years, and spared your life many times, otherwise with your useless son, not to mention that your current foundation is not guaranteed, you think that with this guest, your family's head ten are not enough. ”

The servants of the Zhao family knelt there, and they didn't dare to exhale more, they saw their master being scolded by someone pointing at his nose, but they didn't have much heartache, after all, Master Zhao, who has always been superior in recent years, didn't treat them as people, at this time, all they thought about was this extremely handsome young man, and he would not be angry with his lord for his anger.

Shopkeeper Zhao's bloated body trembled again, he lay at the young man's feet, wanting to cry without tears, and the words he wanted to say looked a little pale in his mouth.

"Lin Gongzi, if I give my little girl to you, can I forgive my son for this mistake, after all, although my daughter is still young, she is already slim and slim, giving her to Lin Gongzi is really a blessing that she has cultivated in eight lifetimes, no matter what Lin Gongzi wants to do to her, our Zhao family will not interfere anymore. ”

His eyes flashed, and before he could react in front of him, his body that fell to the ground stood up in embarrassment, patted the dust on his clothes, and then turned his head and glanced at the rest of the Zhao family viciously, and said with a smile on his face.

"Oh?"

Lin Gongzi laughed angrily, his eyes were blazing and aggressive, but he inadvertently looked at the fat body of the shopkeeper Zhao, showed disdain, and said disdainfully: "Your daughter doesn't know what kind of goods she is, but looking at your fat head and big ears, your wife's old pearl yellow appearance knows that it is not a good thing." ”

At the same time, the shopkeeper Zhao suddenly spurted out a ball of blood from his mouth, his face was pale, and his wrinkled face with the word "Chuan" had a touch of disgust across his face, and in his short and slender eyes, he sometimes hid his face and cried bitterly, sometimes he was quite helpless, and there was obviously something unspeakable.

A wave of anger slowly appeared on Lin Gongzi's face, and he slapped his palm on the wooden table beside him, and suddenly the wooden table that looked solid shattered in response, and several cracks like spider webs extended outward inch by inch from the center of his palm.

"What if she's not my biological daughter. ”

In the end, the disheartened shopkeeper Zhao, after trying hard to say these words, finally drooped down like a deflated balloon.

The audience was in an uproar

Different from Lin Gongzi's calm smile, the other people present all showed a sudden look on their faces, in fact, judging from the girl's appearance, it was obvious that she had little blood relationship with this ugly-looking family, but from the shopkeeper Zhao, he spit out these words with difficulty from his mouth almost out of strength, as long as he thought about the attitude of the old man towards the so-called eldest lady on weekdays

This is simply a child bride.

"Zhao Donglin, you brute!" The woman stood alone in the corner of the wall, bleak and beautiful, with a little sadness and disappointment, gritted her teeth, and scolded.

He followed the voice and glanced at it, looking at the cold face in grief, Lin Gongzi's face was full of brilliance, he seemed to be able to feel a tearing pain in his heart, as if the injuries on his body were brought by him, he forced himself to stabilize his mind, and said softly: "What's wrong with you." ”

At this time, she noticed that there was not only the shopkeeper Zhao present, his little face was slightly red, and he raised his eyes to look at the young man's position, where a handsome young man was staring at her, looking at herself as if she was a little distracted.

"Wanluo, you don't look at what Lin Gongzi's identity is, you don't weigh your own weight yourself, you want me to say, since I dedicated you to Lin Gongzi, it is a blessing that you can't cultivate for eight lifetimes, you really didn't realize it, you agreed to make peace with the orphans of the Zhou family, that was when the Zhou family had a bright future, I could still open one eye and close one eye, but now Qingshui City is no longer the world of the Zhou family's young people, do you think I will really push my daughter who has been raised for so many years into the fire pit?" He said indifferently, his eyes were calm and relaxed, and the strong family affection between the lines, and the indecision that he couldn't bear to give up, almost made him cry.

"You fart, you really don't know what you've been doing to me behind my back in the past few years, and in the middle of the night, I asked your son to climb into my bed, if I wasn't still a little useful to you, I'm afraid you would have done it to me a long time ago. ”

At this moment, the anger accumulated for so many years finally exploded in front of so many people, her face was blue and red, and she didn't know whether she was too angry and flushed, or she was shy to break out her own scandal in front of so many people, but her red face was extraordinarily firm.

It's just that when the burden of the body that has been pressed for a lifetime is completely freed, her eyes suddenly drooped down, and she suddenly felt that her body was soft, and she was about to fall down from mid-air, but the figure that had never been moved suddenly moved, and reached out to support the crumbling body, and as soon as the body was forced, the delicate body was like the whole person curled up in the arms of the young man, and the young man hugged him around his waist, and he didn't even have time to look at Zhao Donglin, who looked sluggish beside him, and walked over from his side as if no one was around.

"Plop!" The fat body knelt down to the ground again, but this time his face was cloudy, looking at the figure that was gradually moving away, he finally took a long breath, panting and wiping the cold sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, but he didn't know that his back was already like pins and needles.

"You group of dog minions!" Zhao Donglin, who had walked around from the ghost gate, was in a very bad mood, and when he turned around, he happened to see a group of gloating subordinates, and his mood was even more angry, his face was full of anger, like Zhang Fei, the three generals of the Shu Kingdom in ancient times, was furious, his eyes stood there, and his eyebrows were like inverted figures.

He stood there, looking at his terrified body, and it was inexplicably funny.

He raised his feet and was about to kick towards these subordinates who didn't know the height of the sky, and saw a few subordinates who usually didn't dare to breathe, and suddenly resisted in groups, and they were about to shout and fight with Zhao Donglin.

A candlelight shone from the room, illuminating the hideous and distorted faces very clearly.

It's night

The bright moonlight reveals a bit of lonely coolness, slowly sprinkled in this vast sea of grass, but you can't see the boundless clear water at a glance, but you don't know how many secrets are hidden.

Under the vast starry sky, the endless waves of wheat can be seen from the raised hills.

Zhou Yusheng only felt a twitch in the corners of his eyes, he remembered that he was rescued from that street, and he lay down in his room for three days, after that, he only felt that he couldn't sleep at night, and there was always an inexplicable restlessness in his heart, which disturbed him in recent days.

But what he was certain of was that this uneasiness did not stem from the fear of the boy, but more like an innate fear of something that was imprinted from the depths of his heart.

It's just that this kind of uneasiness is not impossible, but the time has not yet come.

He is only six years old, and insomnia is really difficult for him, but the situation in the past few days has made his heart feel as if he has been punched hard, and he can't calm down for a long time.

Although Zhou Yusheng was young, he knew from a very early age that the people in the red world were indifferent and the world was cold, but at that time he was still young, and he was suspicious of the words in the mouth of this gentleman, but as he gradually matured with age, he also shattered the only innocence and ruthlessness in his heart.

"What is the source of that golden light?" Zhou Yusheng suddenly seemed to remember something, climbed up from the top of the hill, and glanced at the field beyond the hill, his heart throbbed, and as if he had made up his mind, he walked quickly towards the brightest place of stars in the field.

The wind was blowing, hovering wreaking fiercely around his ears, the moonlit night was filled, the waves of wheat under the deep starry sky, the figures of people and a faint light. It seemed to feel the wind and grass on the wheat waves, and the fireflies dragging the light of Hao Lan followed the sudden intruder of the alien and flew towards the depths of Chen Chen.

Under the moon, there was silence.

The shadows that were disturbed under the moon, a cloud of moonlight that followed closely was like the cluster of lights that always followed the protagonist when the protagonist appeared on the stage in the theater, bright but breaking the brightness in the moonlight, as if the sound of insects haunting in the heart suddenly stopped crying, and the wind hovering in the ears suddenly stopped wandering with the calm floating of the wheat waves.

At this moment, the heavens and the earth seem to have that shadow as the protagonist, and everything created by the Creator is like following that shadow, and again

The dazzling brilliance was dimmed at this moment.

There is a mysterious stream leading to the north in Qingshui City, and it is this stream that has created the vein of Qingshui City today.

But this creek, many people from birth to twilight only heard of it, but never seen it. It seems that it is really as mysterious as the rumors, and in the hearts of the people of Clear Water City, this stream has the same strange shape as this ethereal rumor.

Generally, mountain springs float from the sky and fall on the cascade cliff faults, forming a multi-level white waterfall, like a white ribbon under the starlight.

The spring is in front, and the shadow is behind

Zhou Yusheng has never seen such a magnificent scene, those clear and translucent eyes reflect the shining starlight that seems to shoot down from the sky, under the blue starry sky, the majestic and majestic gradually twisted into the galaxy under this starry sky.

At this moment, the wind blows and the clouds disperse, and the clear and bright eyes are like a piece of crystal glass, reflecting the spring water under the starry sky.

"What is this place, I ...... I don't think I've been here. Zhou Yusheng, who suddenly stopped, looked at the strange scene that he had never encountered in front of him, on one side were gorgeous and dazzling stars, and the magnificent spring hanging upside down in the sky, and on the other side of the spring was a dark and bottomless plain where you could not see the five fingers at all.

A few phantoms flashed suddenly, just flashed on the plain and disappeared, a few cold winds blowing in the distance, the cold wind was biting, and the feeling of lingering palpitations in the heart was blown like an incomparably sharp knife on his face, with a kind of stinging meaning.

This kind of weird feeling is naturally not a fear for Zhou Yusheng, who is not afraid of tigers when the newborn calf is not afraid, but when he swept over the gorgeous spring water around him, he couldn't help frowning because of the cold wind blowing in his face.

"The rest of your life! the rest of your life!" Several uneven voices sounded in this wheat field continuously, and I saw many palace maids dressed in splendid embroidery in the distance, shouting Zhou Yusheng's name with anxious faces, and from his bitter gourd appearance that was about to be in trouble, he could vaguely guess a few points of the truth.

And among them, including a middle-aged man with a stubble on his face and not angry, is Mr. Zhao who came back from Sweetwater Lane not long ago.

It's just that unlike these anxious palace maids, he just looked down at the windswept wheat field, fell into a period of contemplation, and suddenly raised his head to look at the sky that was not abnormal, and sighed lightly.

Where did Zhou Yusheng dare to go in the past, seeing that this group of palace maids was about to touch here, he naturally had his little Jiujiu, but for some reason, from the moment he saw that wonder, he instinctively didn't want to share this place with others.

As Mr. often taught, sharing is a virtue that has been passed down since the ancients, and if you do this, you will violate the basic principle of serving the master.

Zhou Yusheng thought so, and everything behind him suddenly disappeared from his fading back, merged into the night sky, and disappeared.

Zhou Yusheng crawled secretly along the back of the wheat field and in the opposite direction of the group of palace maids, on this side, because the palace maids who had not found Zhou Yusheng for a long time, they were anxious and desperate at the same time.

"You said that His Royal Highness is gone, why is the person gone!"

"I obviously saw His Highness going here, why did he disappear all of a sudden!"

It was one of the girls who was in the prime of life who spoke, but the young and beautiful face was a little ugly at this time because she was being questioned by a middle-aged woman who was more than half a hundred years old.

"Don't look for it, your little highness is probably already back. Mr. Zhao, who was incompatible with these beautiful women, pointed to the brightly lit Qingshui City Palace on the hill and said impatiently.

"Go back where you need to go now!"

The women looked at him suspiciously, but the rough and gloomy face only glanced at the palace a few times, and then turned to the other side, ignoring this side, looking a little absent-minded.

About half an hour later, these palace maids gathered in the wheat field were already gone.

"Obviously here!"

When the crowd had gone, the noisy wheat field had fallen silent, and he circled the north again, but there was only the occasional chirping of insects and the cold wind of the ropes.

Only the compass that hums in the hand to transmit sound hovers in this high sky, flashing with the signal of golden and red handover, like a pen walking dragon, flashing with different luster.

It's just this luster, when the night sky is about to reach a tipping point. It dimmed as the last creatures in the wheat wave fell asleep.

Mr. Zhao looked at the golden compass in his hand, the message was getting darker and darker, he put away the golden compass, and looked at the lonely sky in the distance, and a fierce look flashed on his resolute face.
