"But, Master."

I was still hesitating about how to open my mouth to tell him, Liu Yubin, Luo Junyang, and Baili Dieyi, the matter between the three of them, Zilian's footsteps became more and more hurried, as if she had to leave me behind. In this way, I was in a hurry, and I didn't think much about it, I rushed forward in a few steps, reached out and grabbed his sleeve fiercely, and pulled it desperately in front of me.

"What's wrong?"

He finally stopped, turned around, and looked down at his long sleeves, which I had pulled so white that they were about to burst, with a look of displeasure on his face.

Looking at his frowning brows, as well as the corners of his slightly pursed mouth, I knew that he was afraid that he would be angry and annoyed because I was pulling on his sleeve and refused to let go.

I'm worried that he will be angry with himself, and I'm also worried that I'll let him go, and it will be difficult to find him next time to answer the doubts and puzzles in my heart. At that moment, he opened his mouth and said to him: "Last night, when Master and Liu Gongzi went to the Jade Statue to look for Luo Junyang, Master should have known in his heart that Luo Junyang was actually a true broken sleeve. Also, his cousin Liu Yubin is actually a broken sleeve. As far as Xiao Yu knows, the two of them still seem to like each other. ”

After speaking, I saw that his brows were frowning.

"And what do you want?"

After a while, he threw this question at me.

"How? What about small fish? I buried my head and said in frustration, "Even if Xiao Yu wants to do something, but with Xiao Yu's strength, what can he do?" ”

"If only you had self-knowledge."

He threw down such a sentence, and walked outside the courtyard again, looking at the direction of this road, it seemed that he didn't want to get out of this big courtyard, as if he was going to walk to the shallow smoke pavilion of Baili Dieyi.

"Master, Master, wait for the little fish."

I caught up with him in a few steps, followed him, and walked into the courtyard where Baili Dieyi lived-Shallow Smoke Pavilion.

Step in, a sense of depression and decadence comes into view.

When the autumn festival comes, the dead branches and fallen leaves in the courtyard are sprinkled all over the ground, in the sassy cold wind, the dead branches and leaves on the trees fall down with the cold wind from time to time, circling and turning on the ground, like a butterfly with withered leaves, flying all over the sky in the cold autumn wind, as if wanting to break through the cage in the courtyard and fly farther away.

This courtyard looks very different from other courtyards, other courtyards, looking very lively, although, it is also the autumn festival, however, the hibiscus flowers in the courtyard are still in full swing, fiery red and brilliant. However, there was not a single flower or grass in sight in this courtyard, and the trees on the ground were all dead and silent, giving people a very sad and suffocating feeling.

Curious, I approached the garden, reached out and lifted up the branches that had been broken by the autumn wind, and stroked my fingers over the dead branches of the trees, feeling that the trees in this courtyard seemed to be different from those in other courtyards. Although I have not been in this world for a long time, and I don't know many trees, I am sure that these trees are not Fuso trees.

"It's a peach tree."

Zilian stopped at some point and walked this way.

"Peach tree?"

My fingertips gently stroked the branches, and I felt sorry in my heart: "It's a pity, it's a pity that it's the autumn season, and the little fish doesn't have a chance to see its branches full of peach blossoms." ”

"Hmm."

The consistent answer, the consistent seemingly perfunctory answer, made me feel a little unhappy.

I turned my head to look at him, watching his chin lift slightly and staring into the distance, not knowing what he was looking at. Could it be that the peach blossom tree here reminds him of the old man, so after seeing the peach blossom tree, he will stop and stay for a long time, so after seeing the peach blossom tree, he will lose his mind?

I really don't want to admit that my conjecture is correct, because after thinking about it, the person who knows him well is still an immortal, and the person who can have a little relationship with this peach blossom tree is still an immortal, and there is only the peach blossom fairy who spied on my purple lotus from the beginning - Gu Qingcheng. Fiercely suppressed the slightest displeasure in his heart, and said to him: "Master, the tree planted the most in the Liu family's mansion is the Fusang tree that is blooming in this autumn. Xiao Yu thought at first that all the people of the Liu family, Master Liu, Mrs. Liu, and Mr. Liu, as well as all the maids in the courtyard of this mansion, were all because they liked this hibiscus flower too much, so they would plant hibiscus flowers in this courtyard. Unexpectedly, in Miss Baili's yard, Xiaoyu could actually see the peach tree. ”

The action gently tore off the dead branch that was about to wither to the ground, took it in his hand and twisted it a few times, and found that the branch seemed to have really died, and he couldn't see a trace of new green after twisting it for a long time.

"Master, do you know where you can see peach blossom trees full of peach blossoms at this time of year?" Looking at the dead branches that no longer had half a trace of new green breath in my palm, I asked him with some sadness in my heart.

For a long time, I didn't wait for the answer of the person behind me, and my curiosity and displeasure were even worse, and I turned my head to look, but Zilian was no longer behind me. I thought that he should go to Baili Dieyi's house to see her sick, so he hurriedly threw away the dead branches in his hand and rushed to Baili Dieyi's house.

Before entering the house, a few soft coughing sounds were heard outside the door.

I raised my hand and knocked on the door, and without waiting for a nod of approval, I stepped into the room.

"Master."

With a soft call, everyone standing by the bed looked back at me.

Sitting on the edge of the bed was a middle-aged woman in brocade clothes, who looked no more than thirty years old, and it was really impossible to tell that she would be Liu Yubin's biological mother. The skin is as white as jade, the corners of the eyes have not left any traces due to the passage of time, the chin is slightly pointed, the cheeks are round, the apricot eyes are dotted with tears, one hand is holding a silk handkerchief to wipe the corners of the eyes, and the other hand gently caresses the chest and coughs lightly.

Seeing my appearance, she showed a faint smile on her face, looked up at Zilian, and asked, "Is this person Mr.'s apprentice?" ”

"Yes."

Zilian sat on the stool next to the bed, listened to what Mrs. Liu said, turned her head to look at me, and replied lightly.

"Hmm."

Mrs. Liu wiped her tears with a handkerchief and nodded to me with a smile.

I don't understand what she means, and I don't bother to care what she means. Seeing Zilian inside, her face couldn't help but be full of smiles again, she walked to him with a few steps, leaned down slightly, and called him softly in his ear.

"Master."

Unexpectedly, did not wait for his answer.
