Chapter 50: Pity the Father's Heart
Li Chu pinched the arrow cluster on his cuff, and it was this arrow cluster that summoned Zishan that day, and finally saved the entire Li Mansion from disaster. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The sharp and crisp sound pierced the sky again, Nangong Fei rushed out as soon as he heard the movement, and then Ding Shi Ding Yue also rushed into the courtyard, and said in a panic: "What's wrong?" ”
The courtyard was very calm, only Li Chu stood alone under the ginkgo tree with his hands behind his back, looking thin but full of tenacity.
"It's all here, do you want to leave?" Li Chu suddenly opened his mouth and said such a sentence.
Nangong Fei glanced at it and saw Zishan standing on the corner of the eaves in a clean old robe, and said in surprise: "Senior brother, how did you find out?" Zishan's light skills are so ingenious that I didn't even notice it. ”
"The smell of wine in this body can be smelled thousands of miles away." Li Chu didn't turn to look at the people on the eaves, but instead took a few steps forward and entered the study.
Ding Mi tucked his nose and said in surprise: "How can it smell of wine?" ”
Zishan knew that there was no way to avoid it, so he had to jump into the courtyard, followed the study with a solemn expression, and closed the door casually.
Zishan saw that Li Chu was feeding the white pigeon with his back to him, and he didn't know how to open his mouth for a while, so he untied the wine jug on his waist, and was about to take a sip, when the person in front of him turned around and said, "Don't drink in my study, second uncle." ”
Zishan shook his hand, and a few drops of the wine in the jug almost leaked out, if in normal times, he would have been so anxious to jump up, but today he just stared at the wine flowing out.
"Second uncle, I don't know what happened to you over the years, your appearance has changed greatly, you have lost most of your weight, and your messy hair has caused me to not recognize you in the past few years. But after you have been in the house for a long time, it is not difficult to recognize. ”
When Li Chu said this, he had already poured a cup of tea, handed it to Zishan and said, "Second uncle, drinking alcohol hurts your body, drink some tea to relieve the bar." ”
Zishan looked past Lichu and landed on the unusual gray pigeon, walked over and grabbed it and said, "This is not the same, the hair is also smoother than the white pigeon." ”
Li Chu turned around and was about to speak, but saw Zishan stretch out his hand to stop him: "You don't have to say it, even if your guess is right, you don't have to treat me as an elder in the future, let alone mention the past." ”
Zishan paused, let go of the gray pigeon in his hand, met Lichu's gaze and said, "I will try my best to help you what you want, but if I want to hide, please don't ask." ”
"Second ......" Li Chu wanted to speak and stopped, but he still couldn't hold back and said, "I only have one question, have you ever had a child?" And this kid is Nangong Fei? ”
Zishan's heart shook suddenly, his eyes were filled with anger, and he asked, "How did you know that I had a child?" ”
"Feng Jiu guessed it." Li Chu said softly.
"Feng Jiu guessed?"
Li Chu met his doubts, nodded slightly, and said, "She said that you chose the name Zishan, and you must hope that your child can be treated well by God." ”
The angry eyes gradually lost their spirit, and suddenly became cowardly, Zishan's whole person seemed to lose his strength, leaning against the wall and muttering: "She is so sensitive, it's a pity that Nangong Fei is not my son, my son is long gone, I have never taken good care of him for a day in my life, I just hope that he can be less painful when he leaves." ”
"He's dead? How did you die? Although Li Chu knew that he was provoking his wound by asking this, he still couldn't bear to ask, and he didn't expect him to answer.
But he spoke, maybe it was too long, so many years he had hidden the secrets in his heart, and he relied on drinking to kill his sorrows, and finally met someone who could say, maybe it was a relief.
"He who was burned by the fire, his mother was burned to death with him." His face was wet, Zishan hurriedly raised his sleeve to wipe it, wiped it twice, and laughed self-deprecatingly, "What's the use of saying that I have this body of martial arts?" can only watch their mother and son die in front of their eyes. ”
Li Chu twisted his eyebrows and thought for a while, and suddenly exclaimed: "Xiao Fei has a big scar on his arm and leg, I asked him how he came, and he said that the house caught fire when he was sleeping. ”
"Really?" Zishan stood up straight suddenly, his eyes were full of anger, but soon his eyes dimmed again, and he shook his head and said, "Nangong Fei does look very similar to my son's mother, but his age is wrong, if he is still alive, he should be twenty-five." ”
Li Chu was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "If you deliberately conceal your age, it is not impossible to have an error of two or three years old." Could there be any other reason? ”
Zishan raised his eyes violently, met Li Chu's gaze but quickly turned away, turned his back to him and said, "He was born with a disease, and it is impossible for him to live past the age of ten, let alone be able to practice martial arts." ”
Li Chu was about to ask something, so he saw him walk to the door with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and slowly opened the door and went out without looking back.
The old things from many years ago flashed in his mind, and Li Chu suddenly understood why, everyone in the clan was ashamed of the second uncle back then, and wanted to remove him from the family tree.
Not only for the interaction between him and the corpse, but also because he practiced strange secret techniques back then, and this secret magic is strange because it is supplemented by poison.
Li Chu still clearly remembers the scene when Song Mingquan came home that day, from head to toe, all the exposed flesh seemed to have been gnawed by insects, and it looked very terrifying, even on his face, which was simply terrifying.
Since that day, Li Chu has never seen his second uncle again, but he heard that he died in the cave outside, and no one took his body.
Li Chu sighed, thinking about it like this, the reason why the second uncle's child gave birth to and would die was only afraid that it would have nothing to do with his cultivation of secret arts, and it was also a secret that he couldn't forgive himself so far.
"What's wrong with Zishan? Lost souls. Jin Yuan walked into the house as he spoke, and at the same time looked back behind him frequently.
"He's always been like this, don't you know?" Li Chu saw a white pigeon jumping towards the door, raised his eyebrows and signaled Jin Yuan to close the door, and said, "Since I was injured, these books have been full of dust, I'm afraid you haven't turned them over for a day." ”
Jin Yuan laughed wryly, and before his feet were raised, his expression changed greatly, and his facial features wrinkled tightly together and shouted, "Bird!" Son! Can you not keep the pigeons in the study in the future! ”
"I can't."
"After that, you drink tea by yourself, be careful, don't drink pigeon poop and think it's a new arrival of tea." Jin Yuan muttered in a low voice with a little dissatisfaction.
Li Chu glanced at him, took a cup of tea from his hand, and handed it to Jin Yuan, but before it was handed to him, he pushed it away violently and said, "I don't drink it!" I have something to tell you. ”
"What's the matter?" Seeing that he didn't drink it, Li Chu handed the teacup to his mouth and drank the tea leisurely.
Jin Yuan kicked the white dove at his feet, and was so shocked that the white dove flew all over the house, and he was shocked by the gaze that Shangli Chu shot over, and hurriedly said: "This morning, the Queen Mother went to Jingxin Temple to visit the Buddha, but guess who she met?" ”
"It's not a big deal for the Queen Mother to visit Buddhism, who can surprise you like this? Could it be that the ghost of the Emperor Taishang has appeared? Li Chu said indifferently.
"It's Feng Jiu!"
The hand holding the teacup shook, and the teacup almost slipped out of his hand, Li Chu stabilized his mind and asked, "And then?" ”
"I don't know what happened exactly, I only know that the Queen Mother was injured in the mountains, and after coming down the mountain, she said that she would take Feng Jiu back to the palace." Jin Yuan frowned and thought about it, and added, "I thought that Feng Jiu had offended the Queen Mother and wanted to be questioned, but it was not, although the Queen Mother was injured, she was in a very good mood, and even let Feng Jiu share a carriage with her!" ”
Are you going to get started? Li Chu slowly put down the teacup in his hand, he suddenly regretted that he didn't tell Feng Jiu the truth earlier, Feng Jiu didn't know what amazing move he was going to make.
