CHAPTER XVII

In the Valley of the Immortals, Zhang Jinlei was in the bedroom, sitting on the edge of the bed, still holding the decoction in his hand, and said to the lady lying on the bed: "Madam, drink the medicine." He sat her up.

The person who was called Mrs. was none other than his wife, Yi Hua.

She has had headaches since she was a child and faints from time to time.

It's not curable, but it doesn't cost life, it's just that it recurs often.

Excessive fatigue, sadness, or any irritation can cause the disease to recur.

Every time you relapse, as long as you drink some medicine and rest more, you will be fine.

Yi Hua had just woken up from a coma, her body was very weak, she picked up the decoction in her husband's hand and drank it slowly.

After drinking, he handed the bowl to his husband, then gently wiped his lips with his cuffs and lay down again.

"Mother, do you feel better now?" Zhang Feimo, who was standing beside him, asked Yi Hua who was lying on the bed worriedly.

"My mother is fine, my mother is much better." After Yi Hua finished speaking, he then said to her husband: "Husband, I'm worried about you." ”

"As long as Madame is okay." Zhang Jinlei said.

At this moment, Xuanyuan Yuxiao walked in with his younger brother on his back.

Seeing that the two apprentices were back, Zhang Jinlei hurriedly got up, walked in front of the two apprentices, and said, "Xiao'er, why did you come back so soon?" I thought you were going to stay at home a few more days! Saying that, when he saw Han'er on Xiao'er's back, he hurriedly asked, "Why did Han'er fall asleep?" As he spoke, he looked out the door, and then asked, "Where is your father-in-law?" Didn't he come with you? What about the wine for the teacher? Why didn't you bring wine to the teacher? Zhang Jinlei asked a lot of questions in one breath.

Xuanyuan Yuxiao has been crying since he came home and saw the tragic scene of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, he has been crying in front of his younger brother, he is pretending to be strong, even if he tears, he will not cry loudly, but now he is standing in front of his master, he can no longer be strong, after all, he is still a ten-year-old child.

At this time, he burst into tears, crying with a handful of snot and tears.

Seeing that Xiao'er kept crying and didn't speak, Zhang Jinlei was so anxious that he was sweating, and asked, "Xiao'er, what's wrong?" Don't cry all the time! ”

"Master, your father-in-law and mother-in-law are dead, and you will never drink any more wine in the future." Xuanyuan Yuxiao said this crying, and his voice trembled slightly.

Zhang Jinlei was still holding the bowl in his hand, and when he heard Xiao'er's words, his hand trembled, and the bowl fell to the ground in an instant, shattering.

He thought he had heard it wrong, or he thought that Xiao'er had said it wrong.

These words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, and he was so shocked that he couldn't speak clearly: "Xiao'er, you...... You...... What did you say? Your stepfather...... He...... What happened to him? ”

"My father and my mother are dead." Xuanyuan Yuxiao repeated.

At this time, Zhang Jinlei suddenly sat down on the ground and said, "How can this be? How so? It's good, why did the virtuous brother and younger brother and sister die...... ”

＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿

A few days later, Luo Yihan sat on the bed, not eating, drinking or talking, although his eyes were open, but his eyes did not turn, as if his soul was attached to a corpse, motionless, similar to a living dead.

Zhang Feimo sat beside him, holding a bowl and a spoon, and said, "Second senior brother, you can eat something!" You haven't eaten for days, and if you don't eat you will starve to death. As he spoke, he took a spoonful of rice from the bowl with a spoon, and said while coaxing Luo Yihan's mouth: "Second senior brother, is it okay to take a bite, as long as you take a bite, I will take you out to play, this meal is made by my mother, it is very delicious, if you don't believe you taste it, just take a bite...... ”

Zhang Jinlei, who was standing beside him, saw Han'er become like this, his heart tingled, and there were a lot of questions: Brother Xian and his younger brother and sister are ordinary people, how can they attract killers? What did the killers kill them for? If it's for robbery, but they're penniless, then for what?

He thought about it, looked at Xiao'er who was standing beside him, and then thought: Where did Xiao'er come from? Brother Xian didn't say where he came from. Thinking of this, he said to Xiao'er: "Xiao'er, I have something I want to ask you for the teacher." ”

At this time, Xuanyuan Yuxiao's eyes were looking at his younger brother, and he saw that his younger brother was sitting motionless on the bed without eating or drinking, which made him sad and distressed.

Suddenly, he heard the master calling him, and hurriedly looked at the master and asked, "Master, what do you want to ask the apprentice?" ”

When did you and Han'er meet? Where are you from? What's the last name? Who are your parents? Are there any enemies? Zhang Jinlei asked a lot of questions about Xiao'er's life experience.

In vain...... The apprentice's father and mother...... It's just ordinary people, they are sick, their families are poor, they have no money for medical treatment, they have died, and after they die, they are in vain...... and the disciples became beggars. Xuanyuan Yuxiao's nervous hands clenched his shirt tightly, answering Master's questions intermittently.

After he finished speaking, he thought to himself, "Why did Master suddenly ask me this?" Do you doubt me? If Master knew my true identity, would he not want me? If my brother finds out, will my brother hate me? Will it kill me? Thinking of this, he became even more nervous and scared, and asked, "Why did Master suddenly ask this?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just a casual question." Zhang Jinlei just said so lightly, and when he saw Xiao'er so nervous, he had already guessed seven or eight points.

He could feel in his heart that the murderer of his virtuous brother might be related to Xiao'er, but he couldn't guess Xiao'er's true identity, he only knew that Xiao'er must have something to hide from him.

During this time, he and Xiao'er got along day and night, and felt that Xiao'er was a child with good conduct, whether it was in terms of personality or in terms of dealing with the world, it could reflect that he was a good child, so Zhang Jinlei did not continue to ask.

After a while, the master didn't continue to ask anything, and at this time, Xuanyuan Yuxiao let go of the small hands that were clenching his underwear, recovered his calm from the tension, and then looked at his younger brother.

Zhang Feimo still held the bowl, sat on the edge of the bed, and continued to coax Luo Yihan to eat: "Second senior brother, you can eat a little!" You are obedient and well-behaved on weekdays, why are you disobedient now, just take a bite. Zhang Feimo coaxed until now, Luo Yihan still didn't eat a mouthful of food, she was so anxious that she was about to cry.

At this time, Xuanyuan Yuxiao stretched out his hand and said to his junior sister, "Senior sister, give me the bowl!" I'll feed him. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Feimo got up from the side of the bed, put the bowl in the hands of the senior brother, and then stood beside him.

Xuanyuan Yuxiao took the bowl, sat on the edge of the bed, and said, "Brother, you can eat a mouthful of food!" Don't be like this, you don't eat, drink or talk, you look like this, we are all worried about you. ”

Luo Yihan was like the walking dead, still motionless, and didn't hear his brother calling him at all.

At this time, Xuanyuan Yuxiao was a little angry and raised his voice: "Luo Yihan, are you listening to me, I'll let you eat a bite of food." As he spoke, he took a spoonful of rice from the bowl and put it to Luo Yihan's mouth.

Luo Yihan pushed Xuanyuan Yuxiao's hand aside, then lay down and turned his back to them.

Xuanyuan Yuxiao was so angry that he got up from the edge of the bed and threw the bowl to the ground.

The bowl was shattered, and the rice in the bowl was splashed everywhere.

"What are you doing, big brother? Why are you losing your temper with the second senior brother? Zhang Feimo complained to the senior brother.

Xuanyuan Yuxiao didn't pay attention to his sister's complaints about him, just pulled Luo Yihan off the bed and said angrily: "Luo Yihan, do you think that you are the only one sad about your father's death?" Aren't we sad? If you don't eat or drink, don't you just want to die! It's easy to want to die, but have you ever thought that you don't even know who the murderer of your father and mother is, and what face do you have to face them. ”

Xuanyuan Yuxiao's words stimulated Luo Yihan, and at this time, Luo Yihan blinked, and then shed tears.

Seeing that his younger brother had a reaction, Xuanyuan Yuxiao said calmly: "Brother, the only thing we have to do now is to eat well, live well, and learn martial arts from our master, as long as we live, as long as we learn martial arts, we can avenge our father and mother." ”

Hearing the word "revenge", Luo Yihan came to his senses completely, and then said: "I want to eat, I want to live, and I want revenge." Then he squatted down, grabbed the food on the ground with his hands, and ate it, and as he ate, he said with tears in his eyes: "I want to live, I want revenge, I want revenge...... ”
