Xie Ling finally raised his head and smiled at her, although he looked a little reluctant.

"This is what I specially asked Zhu to do for you, and it will make a lot of noises." As she spoke, she lifted the lid of the box and flicked the piece of wood on the far right, and sure enough, there was a pleasant birdsong in it, and then she dialed the one on the side, and the birdsong turned into the sound of a gurgling spring.

Ye Yan really liked it, and his eyes lit up.

She couldn't put it down while holding the box, and cold-blooded simply put her down and let her sit on a chair next to her to play with this.

Chu Liuxiang came to her senses and realized that she had misunderstood, and when she looked at Xie Ling again, her mood was even more complicated.

Xie Ling was actually no better than him, sensing his gaze, he felt that he had nowhere to hide, so he had to face him, "You...... Why did you come here all of a sudden? ”

"Something to do." To her, he still explained two more words, "It's all here, I'll come and take a look." ”

I haven't seen him for more than two years, and Xie Ling doesn't seem to have changed much, but it is still far from the appearance of being so thin in coarse cloth clothes that the wind can blow it down at the beginning.

Strange to say, he had clearly seen many times the beautiful appearance of her after she was well-off, but the most common thing he remembered was the scene when Xie Ling was sixteen years old and cried extremely sadly on his back.

After Shangyuan left Yangzhou that year, he once had a dream.

In the dream, Xie Ling lay on his stomach and cried sadly like in his memory, tears rolled down his neck all the way, but the words he said were the few words when he said goodbye.

She said, you've been here for too long, and I'm a person who gets carried away easily.

After waking up, Chu Liuxiang couldn't help but think, I may also be willing to let you get carried away for the rest of your life.

But he didn't have a position to say this sentence at the time, and he didn't have a chance to say it later.

Now that I've been saying goodbye for years, I don't know where to start.

Probably because the atmosphere between the two of them was too delicate, and after a while, cold-blooded took the initiative to pick up Ye Yan and walked out, leaving the flower hall to the two of them.

It's okay if he doesn't go out, but as soon as he goes out, Xie Ling is even more at a loss, and he doesn't stand or sit.

After a while, she finally held back a sentence and asked him, "Is that going to be gone soon?" ”

In fact, she regretted it a little the moment she finished speaking, and the meaning of this expulsion seemed to be too obvious.

Fortunately, Chu Liuxiang didn't care, but she didn't answer her question directly, but pointed in the direction of the door and asked her, "Who is that little girl just now?" ”

"Ah, Ah Yan is the daughter of Brother Ye, and the couple has something to do to go out of the city in the past two days, so they put her here with me."

Among the people she knows, there shouldn't be many people with the surname Ye, and they can still be called eldest brother, Chu Liuxiang has only one candidate after thinking about it, "Ye Kai?" ”

"Hmm." Xie Ling nodded.

"I just saw that she seemed to like Lord Leng's appearance very much, and I almost thought she was Lord Leng's daughter."

Xie Ling almost didn't hold back his expression to laugh, "...... Lord Leng has not yet married a wife. ”

"That's good."

"What?" She didn't quite understand his reaction.

"Nothing." He smiled, couldn't bear her to continue to be so entangled and embarrassed, and simply stood up and prepared to leave.

Xie Ling saw his movements, and subconsciously took a step away, but after standing still, she couldn't help but look up at his expression, and when her eyes staggered, she noticed that Chu Liuxiang seemed to sigh, but it didn't.

"To ...... Gone? She asked.

He nodded, "I happened to be passing by, there's something else." ”

Although he didn't intend to hear an answer such as what was a special visit to you, hearing him say this, Xie Ling's mood couldn't help but change from low to even lower.

It's just that she knew that she didn't have any position to keep people down, so she had to purse her lips, "I'll send you." ”

Chu Liuxiang was disrespectful.

After living for so many years, Xie Ling found for the first time that the corridor from the flower hall to the front was so winding, and he clearly did not deliberately slow down his pace, but it seemed that he had walked for a long time.

During this period, she also thought about whether to say something, but she still couldn't say anything.

What she didn't know was that the other party's mood was actually similar to hers.

All the way to the door, the two of them stopped at the same time, but unfortunately before the words brewing in their chests could spit out even a word, they were interrupted by Xie Xing, who came back from Fuxue.

The twelve-year-old boy was much taller than when he left, his childishness had been shed, his eyebrows and eyes had grown, and he really looked a little manly.

He looked more delicate than Xie Ling, but he could still see similar traces, especially those eyes, which were almost exactly the same clear and transparent.

It's a pity that the owner of the beautiful eyes has a rather bad attitude towards him.

"Why are you here?!"

Chu Liuxiang felt that he couldn't live with this apprentice, and where could he compare his attitude, so he pursed his lips and took out the previous rhetoric again, "I happened to be passing by Yangzhou." ”

"Oh, wouldn't you have come if you hadn't passed by?" Xie Xing snorted, "I thought you had forgotten about your apprenticeship." ”

"How could I forget." When he said this, Chu Liuxiang couldn't help but think of some rumors he had heard in the past two years, "The reputation of Sikong picking stars has spread so widely, I can't forget it even if I want to." ”

This attitude of avoiding the important and taking it lightly made Xie Xing even more angry, but he didn't want to say a lot of things in front of Xie Ling, so he simply dragged Chu Liuxiang and left.

Xie Ling stood at the door of Hefangzhai and wanted to stop it, but he only saw Xie Xing waving his hand with his back to her while dragging someone, "Sister, I'll be back in a while." ”

“…… Good. ”

The direction they walked in happened to be the direction of the inn where Chu Liuxiang and Hu Tiehua lived, so Chu Liuxiang was also happy that he pulled himself like this, even if he was paid attention to by many pedestrians along the way, he didn't care.

Xie Xing took him to a secret base between him and Lu Xiaofeng, sometimes he would sneak over to play when he was bored listening to Fuxue, there were many strange things they had collected, as well as various mechanisms made by Zhu Zhuxin, and people who were not familiar with it would definitely be confused by the trap that was almost half a step inside.

But what kind of person is Chu Liuxiang, ordinary Qimen Dunjia can't make it difficult for him at all, and he only needs a brief glance at the gate of that courtyard to know how to go.

"You laid everything out here?"

Xie Xing was still angry, glared at him fiercely, and then shook his head and denied: "Most of them were arranged by Zhu Zhu." ”

"That's a thing." Chu Liuxiang smiled.

Although it sounded like a compliment, Xie Xing still heard a little disdain from it, and he was a little unconvinced, "Then you go first." ”

Chu Liuxiang didn't say anything polite to him, and walked inside without pausing a step.

All the way to the very back did not trigger any traps.

Xie Xing, who was standing at the entrance of the courtyard, opened his mouth, a little deflated.

He once again felt that Chu Liuxiang in Zhu Zhu and Lu Xiaofeng's mouths was very powerful, what kind of powerful method it was.

"Okay, you don't have to be unhappy, it just so happens that I understand these things, and it's not okay to change someone who doesn't understand." Chu Liuxiang said.

"Speak as if you know everything." He didn't even want to shout Master, he walked inside, found two jars of wine, and threw one over, "Lu Xiaofeng put it here, do you want to drink it?" ”

Chu Liuxiang couldn't cry or laugh, "You still learned to drink?" ”

"What's the big deal about drinking?"

The once intimate apprentice became always heartbroken when he kept blowing his beard and glaring at him, Chu Liuxiang took the jar of wine and sighed, "Your sister doesn't know, right?" ”

Xie Xing couldn't wait to pinch him, "Don't mention my sister!" ”

"I was ...... when I left"

"I don't want to know." He interrupted Chu Liuxiang's words and turned his head, "Anyway, I'm leaving, if you don't pass by, you won't think of coming back." ”

Chu Liuxiang's hand that originally wanted to reach out and touch his head paused in mid-air, and it took a while before putting it down, "...... You blame me, too. ”

"What about my sister?"

Looking at the awkward expression of the young man, Chu Liuxiang also felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and he didn't want to tell Xie Xing that it was actually Xie Ling who wanted him to go, so he could only purse his lips, "Ah Ling, isn't she doing well?" ”

"Where's the good!" Xie Xing was almost angry with him, "When my sister is alone, she always holds the dagger you gave her in a daze!" ”

When he mentioned the dagger, Chu Liuxiang remembered that he had seen it on Xie Ling's waist today, and he was also in a trance for a while.

The opened jar of wine wafted a rather tempting aroma, and he took a sip, the spicy taste went straight to his throat, but he was unexpectedly not uncomfortable.

"Or is it true, like Lu Xiaofeng said, you have a lot of confidantes, so you don't care about your sister at all."

Chu Liuxiang had a short pause, he didn't like to lie, but he also knew that if he admitted that he had indeed had a lot of confidants before, Xie Xing might have to deceive his teacher and destroy his ancestors on the spot.

In fact, his hesitant expression fell in Xie Xing's eyes, which was already tantamount to acquiescence.

"Humph!"

"Me and Ah Ling, the main problem is not this." He paused, "She doesn't want me to stay, and I can only wish her to find someone more suitable for her." ”

said so, but remembered that when he heard Hu Tiehua say that Xie Ling and cold-blooded children were born a few hours ago, he still couldn't feel comfortable in his heart.

And then when I learned that it was just a misunderstanding, I was accompanied by surprise and joy.

"Okay, that's what you said!" Xie Xing gritted his teeth and drank the last sip of wine, "I remember." ”

Chu Liuxiang looked at the young man's hateful expression, a little short of words, and thought that he hadn't even shouted at the master when he met this time, and it was even more unpleasant.

But about Xie Ling's matter, if he could really make a guarantee so easily, he would not even see her before Hu Tiehua said that she would marry and have children.

He knew that she didn't need his enthusiasm for the moment, so he preferred to watch from afar.

"I'm not going to help you with cold blood anymore!" Xie Xing threw away the empty jar in his hand.

The clay jar fell to the ground with a clang. As if he could no longer find anything to say to him, the boy stood up and ran out.

"Hey, why are you here?" A clear young voice sounded at the door again, obviously Lu Xiaofeng.

"I'm leaving!"

"Huh?" Lu Xiaofeng was quite puzzled, "What's wrong with you?" Going to catch a thief? ”

Xie Xing almost chopped his feet in front of him, "I'm afraid that if I don't leave, I can't help but deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors!" ”

When he said this, Lu Xiaofeng, who learned from him who was drunk a year ago that he had really apprenticed to Chu Liuxiang, also immediately reacted, "Senior Chu is inside?" ”

Chu Liuxiang also happened to finish the last sip of his jar of wine, and as soon as he raised his eyes, he saw the young man in the scarlet robe running in.

His attitude was still much better than Xie Xing's, "Why did the senior suddenly come back?" ”

"I happened to be passing by." He stood up and shook his robe, and as if remembering something, he said to him, "Thank you for your wine." ”

Lu Xiaofeng waved his hand very generously, "I should repay the sugar gourd that my predecessor bought for me back then." ”
