- Although Shi Yi didn't say much else, the change in the two words on the title still made Yi Wen hear a different meaning.

"Thank you." Yi Wen didn't know what kind of beautiful words he could say at this moment, to thank Shi Yi for his trust and understanding, hesitated for a moment, and just said the most original two words.

Yi Wen suddenly became speechless, but fortunately, Xie Lianyi didn't feel so uncomfortable in the face of Shi Yi at this time, and after a little thought, he said softly: "Xiao Yi, you go outside first and wait for a while, let me comb his hair quietly again."

Starting from Shi Yi's thinking concept, these words should have come out of Yi Wen's mouth, but he looked at the two people in the room, and somehow suddenly felt that no matter how many thoughts he had at this time, they had become superfluous.

Shi Yi quickly went out of the house as he was told, and carefully closed the door tightly.

Yi Wen continued to look out the window, his gaze actually kept falling on the new vine that was wrapping around the roots of the old tree outside the window, and an evil gradually climbed in his heart, wanting to say something to the woman behind him who was gently combing his hair.

He was waiting for an opportunity that he felt suitable to speak, but suddenly found that although the movements between the fingers of the woman behind him had not stopped, they had not spoken for a long time.

Gradually, he felt more and more clearly that there seemed to be something strange about the quiet atmosphere in the room, which made him feel uneasy.

When he finally couldn't help but take a look, he happened to see that two large drops of crystal slid down from Xie Lianyi's slightly drooping eyes.

Yi Wen didn't know when his heart opened a hole from the inside out, watching her cry, the opening in his heart cracked, and her salty tears overflowed on it, stabbing his chest with a faint throbbing pain.

Lin Shan has been looking for his junior brother Cen Chi for more than ten years, and he has never been able to find an accurate trace of rebirth. Read the full text of the hypocritical concubine war. This matter lasted for a long time, and Chen Jiu also learned a little, because she had a lot of eyes and ears in Kyoto before, and Lin Shan had also entrusted her to rely on her eyeliner to search for a period of time in Kyoto. Chen Jiu was extremely suspicious of the strange scholar he saw in the inn, suspecting that he was the junior brother Lin Shan was looking for.

Originally, even she herself was a little surprised by this speculation, but the misty falling flowers blurred her vision, but the outline of the scholar's actions and demeanors was clearly reflected, it was a temperament that was very close to some of Lin Shan's manners and habits, and it was very likely that he and Lin Shan's sitting, eating, and learning together for several years were the result of joyful enemies. Read the full text of the two-faced evil monarch's savage wife.

And if you don't look at the positive face of the scholar who is suspected of Cen Chi. Just looking at his back riding a horse, it is even more like when Lin Shan, who was weak at the age of the crown more than ten years ago, first came to Kyoto. This image does not refer to physical features, but to behavioral habits.

It's like a veteran who has been in the army for many years, even if he is ordered to remove his armor and blend into the farmer's ranks. The bow and arrow he carried on his shoulders became a plowshare. The lance in his hand turned into a hoe. But the width of his steps and the posture of his shoulders and back when he walked can still reflect the image of the marching army.

Cen Chi is not from a military background. But he is one of the descendants of the Beili School, the rules of this ancient school are very strict, and if you stay in this school for a few years, both your knowledge and behavior habits will be more obvious and imprinted with the traces of this school.

After listening to Chen Jiu's speculation, Lin Shan's expression suddenly became solemn. It seems that his inference in his mind at this time is close to the same as hers, but it also causes his mind to become a little complicated because of this.

Chen Jiu stared at him for a moment, and couldn't help but whisper, "Is there anything tricky?" ”

Lin Shan didn't say it directly, but said slowly: "Actually, when my injuries were generally improved last year, I received a secret letter from my senior brother from Kyoto, knowing that my senior brother was going to look for me near western Sichuan. ”

As you just said. The young man with the knife should undoubtedly be the head of the ten generals of the Prime Minister's Mansion, with a single surname and a subtext. As for the Taoist man, you don't know him. But I can roughly guess that it should be the descendant of the North Fence School.

As early as three years ago, when Hayashi returned to Kyoto. I thought about the hermit alien in the house that the Prime Minister raised in the name of making friends, and now I have investigated most of it, and the information of the ten generals of the Prime Minister is of course the first to obtain.

According to the law, Beijing officials can raise a certain number of private soldiers to protect the house, which is also because of the rules created by the turbulent situation in the last years of the previous dynasty, and there have been no rectification measures until now. However, of course, the details of these private soldiers had to be kept on file in both Kyoto Prefecture and the Ministry of War.

Through the intervention of the powers on the side of the Commandery. It was easy for Lin Shan to find out who had kept which private soldiers. The Prime Minister's Mansion was the place he paid close attention to, and of course he had repeatedly browsed the information of the ten generals who were not weak in comprehensive ability, including their portraits.

Of course, this is also known to the aged wine. Therefore, she was not surprised to see that Lin Shan could easily identify the name of the young swordsman she had just seen in the courtyard of the inn, but she was surprised by the middle-aged Taoist with eyes like electricity.

Why did you see a descendant of the North Fence School again?

Thinking about it a few days ago, the old pharmacist Liao Shi, who had just left, was also a descendant of the Beili School.

It seems that there are not many descendants of this school, but why is the rule of the inappropriate person only firmly tied to Lin Shan's head?

Chen Jiu hesitated. finally couldn't help but knock on the side: "Actually, there are really a lot of your fellow brothers." ”

"The same door you are talking about, that Taoist you mean?" Lin Shan looked at the old wine, and there was a hint of surprise on his face.

Chen Jiu looked at him, although she didn't speak, her eyes were obviously asking: Isn't it?

Lin Shan shook his head slightly. said: "The heirs of the side door are the side branches of the division, and after the branches are scattered, they will no longer return to the backbone of the North Fence faction." In the future, I may have intersections with these collateral descendants, but there are almost zero places where I can be constrained or interfered with by door rules. ”

He never mentioned it to outsiders about the Shimen School, but today in the face of Chen Jiu, he has something he wants to explain a little. After pondering for a moment, he slowly continued: "My mentorship school only transmits two formal disciples in one generation, and these two disciples will conduct a revised wisdom and art competition within the school after completing their studies, and one of them will be in charge of the ion token. Use all the resources of the school and are no longer restricted by the rules of the school. The other disciple sat in the school and could not go out easily, and the task of staying behind was to teach the next two disciples, and so on, for more than 300 years.

Just now I said that the Taoist is a descendant of the Beili School, because only the disciple who lost in the same competition carries the qualification responsibility of the disciple, and the disciple he has passed down can be regarded as the main lineage of the Beili. As for the one who won the competition in the same year and inherited the ion token, of course, he can also accept apprentices. And the number of his disciples can be unlimited. However, he is no longer the main descendant of the North Fence School, and he is not eligible to participate in the competition to obtain ion tokens, so he belongs to the side lineage. ”

Chen Jiu frowned slightly, this explanation of the internal structure of the Beili School. It was the first time she had heard Lin Shan mention it. For a while, I felt novel. And she was full of confusion. She tried her best to analyze what Lin Shan said word for word in her heart, and then she rubbed her forehead and said slowly: "Only two disciples in a generation? What if misfortune happens to one of them? Such a harsh rule can be passed down for more than 300 years. What a miracle. ”

Lin Shan smiled slightly when he heard this, and said: "People like my generation of Beilianmen have left the division to walk around before they have passed the wisdom and art competition, which is also the only special case since the twenty-second generation inheritance. As for the kind of accident you mentioned, if it hadn't been for the fact that you had left the protection of the Shimen School and encountered an attack by some evil force outside, and you were beheaded to death, you would never have died unprovoked. What's more, the main disciples of the Shimen School must learn a certain amount of martial arts, and ordinary bandits can't help it. ”

Chen Jiu seemed to suddenly remember something, and said with a smile: "Your master should be good at many skills, right?" Although the old pharmacist is a descendant of a partial sect, retrospectively, he is also a disciple of a certain generation of ion token holders, and the origin of the medicine he learned is still from the Beili School. In this way, although there are few main disciples of the Northern Fence School, in addition to practicing martial arts to protect themselves, it is unlikely that they will suddenly contract a disease and die young. ”

Lin Shan nodded with a smile. He didn't say anything more. As for the structure of the Beili School, he was only willing to talk about this step to Chen Jiu for the time being—perhaps he would only speak to her once in his life.

At this time, Chen Jiu had completely understood Lin Shan's explanation just now, and she gradually adjusted her curiosity in her heart. Suddenly, he was puzzled: "No, you said that there are only two main disciples in the generation of the Northern Fence School. But you seem to have a junior brother in addition to a junior brother, and these are three people. ”

As soon as she finished saying this, Chen Jiu saw the smile on Lin Shan's face freeze, she was slightly shocked, and asked softly: "Did I say something that shouldn't be said?" ”

"You're someone who has nothing to do with the North Fence School, so it's normal to say that." Lin Shan's eyes fell to the ground. There was silence for a moment, and then his gaze returned to Chen Jiu's face, his expression had become extremely serious, and he said, "Jiu'er." I want you to promise one thing. ”

Chen Jiu was stunned, because Lin Shan almost never forced her to agree to anything in such a tone, which had no choice but to be unquestionable.

But she didn't hesitate too much, and nodded quickly, although she didn't speak, but her face was already solemn.

"You remember. I only have one junior brother, but I don't have any senior brother. If it is not in the necessary environment, you can't even mention the information of my junior brother. After saying this, Lin Shan suddenly sighed again. He said in a much softer tone: "It's a secret. ”

"I remember." Chen Jiu nodded earnestly in agreement.

It wasn't until today, listening to Lin Shan's initiative to talk about his school, talking about those harsh rules, more carefully than the information revealed by the old pharmacist Liao Shi a few days ago, that Chen Jiu deeply understood why this school was so low-key and almost completely hidden.

If this is not the case, it is easy to break the dynasty by accepting only two disciples in a generation.

But this school of fortune has been able to perpetuate this rule for hundreds of years, and it is silent but in the most convincing way that it proves that it is meritorious, and that it is unlikely to be reversed in the slightest.

Although she still doesn't quite understand why the Beili School doesn't recruit more disciples, the same class of disciples is always limited to two people.

But she only needs to be clear about one thing, which is enough for her to keep her promise to Lin Shan. Regarding this rule, if someone with a heart obtains it, Lin Shan and his junior brother who have not been seen for a long time may be in danger. And if the "secret" that Lin Shan just said is revealed, then even his senior brother will probably be even more difficult to escape.

However, she didn't know that the word "secret" mentioned by Lin Shan, in addition to the ones she had deduced, really contained another secret. However, fortunately, she hadn't thought of so much, otherwise she would have doubts in her heart, but Lin Shan might not be willing to continue to answer, which only added to the trouble.

……

On the way back to Dongfeng Tower, Shi Yi and Yi Wen didn't say anything.

When he just left that courtyard, Yi Wen's mood was still a little complicated and undulating, he was just using reason to control his emotions, making him look calm on the surface, but this did not mean that his reluctance to Xie Lianyi would be shallower than Xie Lianyi's reluctance to him.

At this time, he really didn't have any mood to chat.

Shi Yi originally wanted to say something to tell Yi Wen to go early and return early, but when these words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back. Go early and come back early? Didn't Yi Wen know it himself? Seeing that this guy lost half of his soul as soon as he saw the fifth aunt, it was equivalent to answering this question more than a dozen times.

These words don't need to be reminded by his juniors, although his actual mental age is estimated to be Yi Wen's eldest brother.

When the two of them returned to Dongfeng Building, the music on the first floor had stopped, Yan Yu and several entourages he brought with him stood at the gate of Dongfeng Building, almost standing in a line, Shi Yi who saw this scene was surprised, and Yi Wen also pressed a trace of worry under his eyebrows, thinking that he had delayed a little more in that small courtyard, causing the young master of the Yan family to wait for a long time.

But this kind of thinking of the two of them actually can't stand scrutiny, there is everything in the Dongfeng Building, Yan Yuruo is really in a hurry to leave, sitting in the house and waiting, which is not much different from standing outside.

A group of people who don't sit on a chair and want to stand at the door to blow the wind are naturally for the sake of things.

Knowing that Yan Yu and his party were standing in a row at the door because they had just bid farewell to Ruan Luo, Shi Yi and Yi Wen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but they didn't expect Ruan Luo to walk so fast, Shi Yi was surprised in his heart.

Seeing that Yi Wen was back, Yan Yu and his party did not return to Dongfeng Tower, and said goodbye directly at the door. Removed the delicate golden abacus hanging at the door, counted the number of people in the carry, and retrieved the things they brought back as they were, the style of the Yan family and his party was just like their family nature, and they just left.

Looking at the group portrait of the back of a dozen or so people walking away, I don't know if it is the psychological effect, or if there is a person who is indeed obviously different from others in terms of clothing, Shi Yi feels that no matter how he looks at it from that angle, he can see Yi Wen's location at a glance-

(To be continued......)
