"So Ling'er, when exactly are you going to leave here?"

This question was asked a little suddenly, and I didn't know how to answer it for a while, so I asked without thinking, "Brother, why do you keep asking me to leave?" ”

"What..."Wen Zhao seemed to be a little confused by my question, and he stuttered a little for a while, "This is strange, Lifu is not our home, do you want to live here for the rest of your life?" ”

"Not really... It's just that now I'm like this, and I don't know where to go except here. I said softly, "Brother, didn't you say that our parents died early, in this case, where can I go if I leave the Hou Mansion?" ”

Wen Zhao was stunned again, this time it was not like just now, but it really touched his heart.

My words are true, this is indeed what Wen Zhao just said about the life experience of our brothers and sisters - the common people of the early country, the parents died in the war that year, in order to live he followed the marquis of Li, who was the general of the early eradication, and I went away to the rivers and lakes, and taught kung fu at the end of the second to none in the rivers and lakes.

For many years, we have not been separated from each other, but we are forced by life to rush to each other, but we really don't have much time to spend together. Already homeless, I haven't found a way to get in touch with the Tail Cult yet, and now I'm even more plainly targeted by the Assassins. In this case, in addition to the right to live a stable life under the protection of the Hou Ye, the world is so big, where can I go?

"Then you don't have to rely on Master Hou." Wen Zhao eased his expression and continued, "Although you and my brother and sister have lost their father and mother since childhood, they still have a dear aunt. When the city of Kashu was destroyed at the beginning of the year, she was the one who protected our brothers and sisters to save their lives. Now she runs the largest restaurant in the Imperial City of Karju in Dongshi. According to my brother's, Ling'er, you don't remember anything, so you don't have to go back to that smoky tail. It's better to go to your aunt's place first and settle down, and wait for your memory to slowly recover, and it's not too late for us to make plans! ”

"Aunt..."I couldn't react for a while, so I had to say in a deep and sincere voice, "Brother, maybe I did have inseparable relationships and bonds with many people before, and I naturally didn't dare to turn my back on those feelings." It's just that I hope you can understand that since I lost my memory, it was the Hou Ye who took care of me everywhere and treated me kindly. He is now Wen Ling's only friend, even if I know my identity, it is no longer reasonable to stay in the Hou Mansion. But please let me go for a while, and say goodbye to Master Hou, so that his old man's hard work in the past few days will be in vain......"

Wen Zhao frowned slightly, as if he had something to say, he pondered for a moment, and finally did not say anything against it.

He turned around a little anxiously and glanced at the courtyard through the crack in the door, and then continued to me: "Brother understands, you have always been independent and decisive, and I don't have to worry about many things for you... It's okay to stay for a few more days, I can see that Lord Hou really cherishes you, and if you want to heal your injuries as soon as possible, you can't do without the supplies from the house... In short, you have to take control of this matter yourself, and it will inevitably be suspected, and my brother will not stay for a long time today, so I will tell my aunt about you when I go out, so that she can prepare early. ”

I thought that Wen would have objections, but now I see that not only did he not urge him at all, but he was also so understanding and tolerant.

Outside of the accident, I couldn't help but think - what kind of girl was Wen Ling in the past, I thought that she was at a young age, and she was seriously injured alone and fell at the foot of Lianyue Mountain, I just thought that this girl's life experience was so bumpy and twists and turns. Now that I gradually understand, I not only found that she has peerless martial arts, but also has such a complex and secret identity in the rivers and lakes.

What kind of sect is that?

In a trance, I remembered that when I gossiped about Xunyue before, I seemed to mention that it was the only Jianghu sect in the martial arts today, and its power was huge and complicated, and it even penetrated into the two dynasties. And Wen Ling, listening to what Wen Zhao said, she is still a flag master in the sect, what is the flag master... If it is a very important identity, why don't I see people in the sect come to look for me? And if it doesn't matter, the internal strength and martial arts of a low-end person are so good, and what kind of unfathomable master should the person in power in the sect be......

It's not just the tail religion, but also the surname Wen.

Wen Zhaocai said that at the beginning of that year, the national city was occupied by the Hou Ye, and the ordinary people surnamed Wen had been slaughtered, and how was that aunt so powerful that she actually protected the lives of our two Wen children in such a troubled time...... What did you think afterwards, not only did you send Wen Zhao'an to Lifu, but also sent Wen Ling, a weak woman, to the dangerous tail sect?

Listening to Wen Zhao's meaning, he and Wen Ling may not have seen each other for a long time, so what kind of person was Wen Ling before, who actually let Wen Zhao, who was a brother, habitually obey her like this?

Even, if my feelings are not wrong, there is still a trace of awe ......?

"Ling'er... Ling'er? What happened to you? Wen Zhao's call broke my contemplation, "What is so preoccupied with thinking, you can hear my brother's words, your maidservants and guards will be back soon, and I can't linger any longer." When you're ready to go out, just show this to the gatekeeper of this yard. Wen Zhao stuffed a copper token into my hand and continued, "You have to remember that although Master Hou treats you very well, he is the Marquis of this great heart after all, and there are too many faces that you can't see. Therefore, in addition to being grateful, you must also have some measure in your heart, and you can't put your heart into your heart, and confess everything to him! ”

"I understand, don't worry, you know what happened today, I won't tell Master Hou about our relationship." I breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at Wen Zhao with a very bright smile, "It's just that you also have to remember that now my name in the Hou Mansion is Lian Gui Ying, don't tell outsiders about it!" ”

"Ghost girl, this time I'm going to be cautious," Wen Zhao sneered, "Okay, since it's okay, my brother will go first, you are alone in the inner garden, you must be careful of everything!" ”

Wen Zhao took a few last steps forward, and the moment he hugged me, I felt extremely relieved, as if my heartstrings, which had been tense all these days, had finally relaxed. He didn't wear a sachet, but he had a smell like the sun shining and morning dew steaming. Rough and warm.

His hand brushed my cheek lightly, lingering for a moment, and finally slowly retreated, turning and opening the door that had been closed.

"Brother, wait a minute—"

In the soft and hazy afternoon sun, Wen's face turned into a tough silhouette. There was no doubt in his eyes, only concern and pity that slowly overflowed.

"-How old am I this year?"

"On the fifth day of the lunar month of that year, the army invaded Kazhou, and when we escaped in a hurry, you were only five years old." Wen Zhao smiled deeply, as if recalling the most distant past. "Now, it's more than two months before your seventeenth birthday."

Although he had a premonition, there was still a moment of consternation from Wen Zhao's mouth.

Seventeen years old, it turned out that Wen Ling was only seventeen years old.

Is her most innocent cardamom years all dedicated to the reckless rivers and lakes of the sword shadow cold?

What kind of wind, frost, rain and snow did she go through to break through the cocoon and practice such a profound internal force martial arts ......

And I, should I use her body to find my friends for the rest of my life, or try to integrate into her life, continue to be her brother's sister, and be the banner master of her tail sect?

The sun was shining, and Wen Zhao's figure was no longer visible at the door. I slowly stroked the word "Wen" engraved on the copper token given by Wen Zhao in my hand, and the body temperature of Wen Zhao remaining on the piece of metal spread through my fingers to the cold tide that seemed to be surging.
