The rain was still falling outside the window, and in the study, Ji Xiaogu was holding the ● volume that Ji Xingxuan brought back, and there was a sallow paper in his hand, comparing the handwriting on it, and rubbing it on the corner of the roll with a little boiled matsutake tea, checking the year of the paper, and after a while, his face began to show joy.

"It's true, the handwriting on this scroll is exactly the same as the transcript left by Yunhua Yizi in the Si Tianjian Sect Treasury, and this paper is indeed twenty years old, so it will be stained with matsutake and green, Star Swirl, you did a good job."

When Ji Xingxuan heard the good news, he was not as happy as Ji Xiaogu, turned his head to look out the window, but showed a wry smile:

"It's just that the disaster stone was lost, and the man didn't catch it."

Ji Xiaogu had heard from Ji Xingxuan's maid about her exchange with the anonymous person in Changchun Fang, and thought that she would be uncomfortable if she lost her beloved thing, so he comforted:

"Don't worry, my grandfather has asked people to go around Changchun Fang to carefully check this person's appearance, once he finds out the whereabouts of the thief, he will definitely ask for something for you."

Ji Xingxuan looked back at Ji Xiaogu and said:

"To catch that person, I'm afraid it's not so easy, grandson came back and thought all the way, today's events are too coincidental, how could there be a shower at noon, those beggars have also inquired, all said that no one instructed them, how could it just be at that time to rob, the guards caught the little beggar who grabbed the money, on the way did not let him out of sight, but only the stone was missing, the thing is abnormal both for the demon, I want to think about it, the anonymous person is these in advance, just a moment, can occupy the right time, place and people, Such a person is not only shrewd, but also very good at easy skills, and it is not easy to track down. ”

Ji Xiaogu frowned: "The person who gave you the umbrella must be the person who wrote to you anonymously, did you really not see the other party's appearance clearly?" ”

Ji Xingxuan's eyes flashed, sighed slightly, lowered his head and said: "At that time, it was raining heavily, and I fell down again, and I only saw a figure, and I didn't even see what clothes that person was wearing, whether it was a man or a woman, I don't know." ”

didn't know that she was hiding something, Ji Xiaogu nodded, knowing that the chance of the disaster stone being found again was very small, seeing that she was entangled in this, he looked serious and said:

"If you can't find it, don't think about it for the time being, and I'll go and get your talisman jade and put it back on later. There are still three days before the Dayan exam, you should prepare for the exam wholeheartedly, now that you have Yunhua Yizi's paper in hand, you should think about how to solve the problem when the time comes, and you can't copy his answer. ”

Hearing this, Ji Xingxuan suppressed the irritability in his heart and held the wrist that was now empty.

"I thought that combined with the three-star omen, this sentence is a metaphor that after this omen, there will be a person in the Spring Festival next year, born in a prosperous and wealthy body, and then there will be a monstrous disaster."

She had an indescribable premonition that sooner or later she would meet the person who gave the umbrella in the rain again.

Braving the heavy rain to return home, Yu Shu was shivering from the cold, scooped half a basin of warm water from the stove and brought it back to the bedroom, Ma Li washed his hands and face, took off all his wet clothes and threw them aside, and slipped into the quilt naked.

Jingchen also got a lot wet, but now that his martial arts have recovered, he is not afraid of the cold, and after changing his wet clothes, he went to the kitchen and added firewood to boil water in one hand.

Yu Shu warmed up for a long time before he came to his senses, pricked up his ears to listen to the movement outside the house, wrapped in the quilt and said loudly:

"Jingchen, beware of your hands don't get wet!"

Jing Chen, who was preparing to make tea in the kitchen, stopped, raised his right hand to look at the semi-wet traces on the gauze, turned his head to see that the fire on the stove was not extinguished, bent down and put his hand up to bake, and waited until the moisture on it was steamed dry before continuing to pour tea.

He took the brewed hot tea into the big room and knocked on Yu Shu's door, "Xiaoyu." ”

"Oh, wait a minute," Yu Shuzhong's long hand reached for the wrap coat and pants at the head of the bed, scooped them into the quilt and put them on, and put on a pair of pants, reluctant to warm up the quilt, so he wrapped the quilt on his body, only his head was exposed, and he stepped on his shoes and got out of bed to open the door.

Jingchen walked in with tea in one hand, and saw her wrapped in a quilt and stamping her feet, looking afraid of the cold, so he said to her, "Go and sit on the bed." ”

Yu Shu said embarrassedly, then trotted back to the bed, kicked off his shoes, retracted his feet into the quilt, watched Jingchen put down the tea on the desk, and poured a cup for her.

Yu Shu stretched out two hands from the heavy quilt, carefully took the slightly hot cup, let her snort comfortably, lowered her head and blew, and couldn't help but take a small sip to drink.

Jingchen stood patiently by the bed, waited for her to finish drinking the water, then took the empty cup and put it back on the table, turned around and pinched the small bead from the cuff and handed it to her.

Yu Shu took it with a smile, took a careful look at the light of the window, and rubbed it in the palm of his hand for a while, and the palm quickly became hot, but the bead was still cold.

"It's true, that's the Yellow Frost Stone you gave me at the time." The joy of the lost ones made her close her mouth with joy, even if the treasure did not belong to hers.

Yu Shu pinched the Yellow Frost Stone and handed it back to Jing Chen, thinking about how to talk to him, so that he could borrow this Bad Luck Stone for her to wear for a while, go to get rid of bad luck, and then return it to him when she studied out his plan for the Star Seizure Cycle.

However, without her opening, Jing Chen spoke first:

"You can take it."

"Huh?" Yu Shu was stunned for a moment, but he didn't know how to answer, hesitated for a while, and then said slowly: "This is the treasure of your master's sect, which was lost by me carelessly, and it was finally recovered, you give it to me again. ”

Jing Chen glanced at the touch of yellow that Yu Shu pinched, there was no reluctance on his face, and moved his gaze to Yu Shu's slightly reddened face that was scented by a cup of hot tea, and said:

"It means that you can't give it to someone with a bad heart, but I know you as a friend, like a brother, so I can trust it to you, why not?"

When Yu Shu heard the phrase "best friend", he could still grin happily, and jumped to the back sentence "close as a brother", so he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and secretly muttered to himself when this nerd would find out that she was a fake woman, snorted twice on his nose, retracted his hand back into the quilt, and said:

"Then I'll keep it for you first, and I'll return it to you when you ask for it.

Jingchen didn't say much, nodded and agreed, his eyes turned and saw her small thin neck exposed from the quilt, his eyes were on a mud spot on her slender collarbone, and after a slight pause, he stretched out his hand, pressed his thumb on it, and rubbed it gently.

Yu Shu didn't pay attention to being scraped by him, itched his shoulders, and when he realized how frivolous his action was, he stretched out his hand from the quilt without thinking, grabbed his wrist with one hand, covered his neck with the other, raised his head and glared:

"What are you doing!"

I didn't want to move like this, the quilt on my body slipped directly off my shoulders, she only wore a small coat wrapped around her breasts, most of her shoulders were exposed to the air, the rounded shoulders were different from the roughness of men, and under the bean blue clothes, the undulating curvature of the chest was not very obvious, but it was indeed flat like other men.

Jingchen stood beside the bed, condescending, clear at a glance.

No one expected this kind of scene, the two of them were stunned at the same time, until Yu Shu was so cold that he sneezed, then he let go of his wrist with a stiff face, pulled the quilt piled up to his waist again, covered it tightly, and didn't look at Jing Chen's expression at the moment, pressed his forehead with one hand, and said in a muffled voice:

"Go out and close the door."

This voice broke the silence, Jing Chen's mind clearly appeared the picture he had just seen, and flashed some details of his daily life, his eyes blinked, he realized something, turned his back suddenly, and walked out of Yu Shu's room with his hands and feet.

As soon as the door was closed, Yu Shu's face couldn't be hung up, he tilted his body towards the head of the bed, held the cold little stone in his hand, pounded the pillow, and squeezed out a groan of chagrin in his throat.

Outside the door, Jing Chengan stood for a while, slowly raised his hand, clenched it into a fist, and pressed it against his eyebrows, behind his damp sideburns, there were reddened ear tips.

Yu Shu and Jingchen stayed in their rooms until dusk, when the rain stopped and Yu Xiaoxiu came back from school.

"Open the door, I'm back!"

Yu Xiaoxiu knocked on the door several times, only to see Jingchen come to open, but he didn't notice that his demeanor was unnatural, smiled at him, closed the door casually, and ran into the house with his schoolbag, shouting excitedly:

"Brother, brother, let me tell you, Brother Xue today—eh?"

He pushed the door of the bedroom and tried to enter, but found that the door was plugged in from the inside.

Yu Shu had already dressed neatly, sat at the desk and memorized the book, didn't read a few words in an afternoon, heard Yu Xiaoxiu's knock on the door, didn't move, didn't move, didn't mean to open the door for him, turned the page, and lazily responded:

"What's wrong with Brother Xue?"

Yu Xiaoxiu thought that she was changing clothes inside, and it was inconvenient to go in, so she stood honestly at the door with her schoolbag and talked to the inside:

"Brother Xue went to the library to find me today, asked me when I didn't have to go to school, and said that he would take me to ride a horse outside the city, but he asked me to come back and ask you, and you had to agree."

Because Yu Xiaoxiu had mentioned this to Yu Shu before, she just let out an "oh" and said absentmindedly: "If you want to go, go there." ”

Yu Xiaoxiu listened to her promise, grabbed his hair, and continued: "Brother Xue also asked me to bring a message to you, saying that he was busy with official business in the Yamen these days, and it was inconvenient for him to come to the south of the city to find you, saying that he was waiting for you to take the exam on the first day of junior high school, and that he would send a carriage to pick you up in the morning, and asked you to prepare for the exam with peace of mind." ”

Hearing this, Yu Shu had another expression on his face, put the book upside down on the table, and held his chin a little helplessly, although he was grateful for Xue Rui's "helpfulness", he couldn't help but feel bitter

"It seems that I have to find an opportunity to make it clear to him, it's not good to go on like this."

After making up his mind, Yu Shu was lazy, twisted his neck, stood up from the table, walked to the window, gently opened half of the window with one hand, found Jingchen who was sweeping the water in the courtyard, quietly glanced at his back a few times, pursed his lips and smiled, closed the window, and walked out of the room.
