Without waiting for Hu Dingtang to answer me, I reached out and touched his right elbow, pressed it, and then touched the back of his head.

Hu Dingtang kept looking at me with a forbearant look in his eyes, he especially didn't want to expose his weaknesses to others.

But now, I'm not someone else, am I?

"I seem to finally know why you were kicked out by the fox clan." I withdrew my hand and looked at Hu Dingtang with some pity, "If I'm not mistaken, you weren't born with an illness, it should have been revealed when your cultivation had your first breakthrough, right?" ”

"You do." Hu Dingtang said.

"Born with anti-bones, it refers to the fact that when ordinary people are born, the back of the head is protruding, and the world says that people who are born against bones will be guilty of great evil in the future, so they will be rejected by others." I said, "But this kind of anti-bone of yours is not innate, but has evolved according to the continuous improvement of your cultivation level, first from the kneecap, then to the elbow, and finally to the back of the head, and ordinary people don't understand these things at all." ”

"You only have a disease on your right kneecap now, and your right elbow should occasionally hurt, but you have been driven out by the fox clan for tens of thousands of years, why do they understand this?"

"So, there must have been such people in your family before you, right?"

Hu Dingtang's eyes when he looked at me completely changed, and in that look, there was surprise, pain, and resentment, and he couldn't see the bottom at a glance.

"Because there is a precedent, and that person has indeed done a great evil, it will cause them to be like frightened birds, and show no mercy to you."

"That's enough, don't say it." Hu Dingtang roared, "Meng Jiushang, let me remind you, don't speculate about my affairs." ”

"Your business?" I asked rhetorically, "The third watch climbed into my bed in the middle of the night and did everything he had to do, but he didn't think I was your person from the bottom of my heart, right?" ”

I pointed my hand out, "Then please get out of here for me now." ”

Hu Dingtang probably didn't expect me to react so much, and he couldn't put down his face, paused for a while, suddenly lifted the quilt, and covered me with his head, and the next second I was covered in the quilt and carried to bed.

I struggled to finally reveal a pair of eyes from the quilt, just in front of Hu Dingtang, he patted the quilt and said, "Isn't it cold to wear so little and stand there for so long?" Wrap up and get a good night's sleep. ”

I used my hands and feet together in the quilt, and wanted to turn it out, Hu Dingtang pressed me and said, "The spirit is so good? Why don't we do something more to promote sleep? ”

As he spoke, he lifted the corner of the quilt and got in, so frightened that I hurriedly put my hands around my chest to protect myself: "Sleepy, I'm sleepy, I'll fall asleep immediately." ”

As soon as his eyes were closed, he pressed against the inside of the bed, and he didn't dare to gasp.

After a while, Hu Dingtang laughed: "I thought you were really not afraid of heaven and earth." ”

I grabbed the quilt with both hands and squinted at him, who was half-lying with his head propped up with one hand, looking at me with interest.

I whispered: "Hu Dingtang, I'm serious, now we are grasshoppers tied to a line, what do you have to tell me clearly so that I can help you, don't worry, I have a very strict mouth, and I won't go out and talk nonsense." ”

Hu Dingtang reached out and covered the hair stuck to my cheek behind my ear, touched my earlobe with his fingers, and said, "There are some things you don't need to know too much, I just ask you, my disease, can some cure it?" ”

Hu Dingtang seems to be very taboo for me to ask about the person in the fox clan who has the same disease as him, and the more this is the case, the more it shows that this person is very important to Hu Dingtang.

This is a hurdle that he can't get around in his heart, every time I ask, I just sprinkle salt on this hurdle, fortunately I don't ask, and when he wants to tell me in the future, he will say it.

As for his disease......

"Your disease is very easy to solve, and it can be cured without medicine." I said, "It's just that you need to sacrifice yourself." ”

Hu Dingtang frowned: "You didn't say it in vain? My illness is gradually deteriorating according to my cultivation level, and if I want to be completely unaffected by the disease, I have to have no cultivation skills, so it is better to let me die. ”

This is Hu Dingtang's predicament, mediocrity and inaction are not looked down upon by anyone in the fox clan, but he is advanced in cultivation but endures the torture of illness, and is regarded as the number one traitor of the entire fox clan in the future, and is still not treated by the fox clan.

Therefore, he would rather be independent, endure inhuman torture on the fifteenth day of every month, and keep cultivating, at least, except for the fifteenth day, he is still the respected fox fairy at other times.

It's just that such days won't last long, and when the illness completely erupts, he will probably not be able to bear it and be killed alive, not to mention, even if he is unwilling, he is still involved in the battle of the fox clan.

He didn't want to fight, but someone wanted to pull him into the water, forcing the hatred and dissatisfaction hidden in his heart to jump up.

Sometimes, the so-called rebellion is not something that you have in your bones, but is forced out alive, but as soon as you make a move, the world will think that your rebellion is because you are destined to be rebellious, and you feel that it is useless to be wronged.

"Can you help me." Hu Dingtang turned to say, "Someone told me many years ago that if you want to reverse my fate, you must find an embroidery girl with yin and yang needles, yin and yang needles embroider yin and yang, as long as they are used properly, even those who are dead can become alive under the yin and yang needles, not to mention a few small anti-bones." ”

"I've seen your skills a few times, and I believe in you."

"You're overestimating me." I said, "Yes, I have the only yin-yang needle in the world, and I am also proficient in embroidery, but you also know that I am not capable enough to completely control the yin-yang needle." ”

"It's okay, I'll help you, try to wait until the day you can handle it." Hu Dingtang said.

I smiled bitterly: "Hu Dingtang, maybe when that time comes, you won't think so." ”

"Why?" Hu Dingtang was puzzled, "If you become stronger, you can save me, this is obviously the best of both worlds." ”

I looked at Hu Dingtang sideways and asked, "Why don't you ask me about my background?" Don't ask me how I got the Yin Yang Needle? Don't ask me how did the fox Neidan in my body come about? ”

"I asked before, and you don't want to say." Hu Dingtang said, "And, now all this is not important, the important thing is that now you are finally my woman, we will be one from now on, and I will not let go of it for the rest of my life." ”

I looked at him, looked at it, and laughed: "You stupid, no matter how I came from, but the body that carries me now is just an ordinary human body, it has a life limit, just a few decades of life, where does it come from?" ”

"Maybe I'm not really strong enough to help you reverse your fate and die, even if you can wait until that day, within the three realms and six realms, there are many people who want to stop me from acting recklessly."

The stronger I am, it means that I will be pushed into the eyes of everyone, and those who once couldn't tolerate me will also make a comeback, and it will be good if I can not involve Hu Dingtang at that time.

Hu Dingtang was stunned for a moment and sighed: "It seems that I am too reckless, from the day I met you, I only thought about how to trap you, but I never thought about whether you were competent." ”

He smiled, suddenly relieved, touched my head and said: "It's okay, no matter what, you are mine, I won't leave yours, if I can cure it, it is my fate to treat it, anyway, before I met you, I never had any hope." ”

He said it very calmly, put one hand around me, and reached out to put out the lights, but I said, "You really don't ask me where I really come from?" ”

"Don't ask." He replied simply.

It's too crisp, but it makes me even more uncomfortable, like something is blocked in my throat, I can't go up or down, and it's very uncomfortable.

The lights went out, and a faint light came in through the window, and the sky gradually brightened.

Hu Dingtang closed his eyes, yawned and said, "Don't look at it, go back to sleep, there will be something to do during the day." ”

"Hu Dingtang, I want to go see my grandmother, I haven't seen her for a long time." I flattered, "I miss my grandmother." ”

"Yes, wait for Yunzhi to send someone to pick you up." He agreed.

My mood immediately improved, and I propped up my upper body close to his ear and said, "Well, it's really good for me for the time being, then...... Although I can't cure your illness, I have never said that it will not help you to curb your pain in the slightest. ”

Hu Dingtang opened his eyes suddenly, stared at me in disbelief, and said, "Really? ”

"How else can I lie to you?" I nodded, "But how much I can suppress it depends on what level my internal strength has reached, and I believe I will work hard." ”

Hu Dingtang was overjoyed, and couldn't help but confirm again: "Do you really have a way to make me less painful?" On the fifteenth day, you don't have to lose all your internal strength? ”

"Ah, you're so annoying, I just said you can try, you force me so much, I don't dare to try." When the time comes, if I fail to achieve the desired effect, and he blames me in turn, then I will not lift a stone and shoot myself in the foot.

"I didn't force you, I didn't force you, I was just a little surprised." Hu Dingtang coaxed me and said, "Sleep, I've recuperated my spirits, I'll come back tonight." ”

I nestled in his arms, my eyes closed, but my face was flushed with excitement from his words, and I didn't dare to move, for fear that he would do something out of the ordinary again.

Maybe it was Hu Dingtang's attitude that completely put my heart down, and I slept very soundly this night, and when I woke up, he had already left.

I got up, washed up, and when I was making breakfast, Hu Yunzhi's carriage had already stopped at the door: "Miss Meng, the third brother asked me to pick you up, and go to Mingyang Mountain for breakfast to eat with your grandmother." ”

"Oh, okay, I'm sorry for you." I quickly wiped my hands, locked the door, and got into his carriage.

Hu Yunyi drove the carriage and said, "Miss Meng, congratulations." ”

"Huh?" I was stunned for a moment, and then I reacted, and my face turned red again, "No...... Nothing to congratulate. ”

"I grew up with my third brother since I was a child, and my relationship is very good, since I can remember, he has lived in my house, and with my milk, there will never be no shortage of my third brother." Hu Yunzhi smiled, "But my third brother is hundreds of years older than me, and my mother still spoils him so much." ”

"Aren't you brothers?" After asking this, I suddenly realized that Hu Yunzhi and Hu Yunxi should be brother and sister, Hu Yunxi can be so blatantly in love with Hu Dingtang, then they can't be the same mother.

Hu Yunzhi shook his head: "We are cousins, and the third brother's mother is my aunt." ”

"Then why did he stay at your house? What about his parents? I asked.

A few hundred years old, for a cultivating fox, it's really not too big, but at such an age, he lives with his uncle's family, unless he has to, right?

Hu Yunzhi's smile froze at the corner of his mouth, and he didn't answer my question, and at that moment, I suddenly realized something.

Is Hu Dingtang's anti-bone genetic?

Last night I asked him if the fox clan had already had the same illness as him before him, and at that time his many emotions were obviously mixed with pain.

This kind of pain, in addition to not being understood and being expelled from the clan, is more from some bad memories of loved ones, right?

"I'm sorry, I was abrupt, I shouldn't have asked." I apologized.

"It's okay, it's been many years ago, so don't mention it." Hu Yunzhi changed the topic, "No one knows the third brother better than me, he is the kind of person who is particularly assertive, if he doesn't really like you from the bottom of his heart, he won't be killed...... In short, I still want to congratulate Miss Meng, no, congratulations to the third sister-in-law, the third brother is worthy of your life. ”

This third sister-in-law called me from head to toe like a boiled shrimp, but I didn't dare to agree with Hu Yunzhi's words, Hu Dingtang's motives were not pure, it was a long time, he couldn't like me from the second meeting, right?

I don't believe it either.

The carriage swayed forward for a while, and slowly went up the mountain road, Hu Yunzhi suddenly said again: "It's really unpredictable, for so many years, I have bitterly advised the third brother not to give up the old mansion of the fox clan, let him go back and move around under pressure no matter what, he just didn't listen, but he didn't expect that this time, he had to face up to the relationship with the old mansion." ”

This is also forced to be helpless, rather than being dragged into the water by Hu Dingkun and causing a commotion, it is better to take the initiative and fight for a piece of sky for himself.

"But it's a tough road." I said.

Hu Yunzhi nodded: "It's difficult, it's definitely difficult, but it's different now, these few times I went back to the old house, I obviously felt that my grandfather's attitude had changed." ”

"Changed?" I was puzzled.

"In fact, back then, the patriarch's grandfather didn't have to force the third brother to leave the old mansion, after all, he was the patriarch's grandfather's own grandson, and he was reluctant, not to mention that the third brother was the best cultivation talent among our brothers and sisters." Hu Yunzhi sighed, "But although the patriarch grandfather is the head of the clan, many things are involuntarily, and someone is jumping up and down in secret, forcing the patriarch grandfather to make a decision." ”

"But even then, the patriarch's grandfather just said that he would let the third brother go to the forbidden land, and he wanted to keep him under so much pressure, but how could the third brother be such an arrogant person, how could he endure such humiliation and leave directly from the fox clan."

"After so many years in the blink of an eye, he has never been back once, the patriarch grandfather doesn't say it, he must miss him very much in his heart, especially in recent years, the eldest brother and the second brother have ...... again"

Hu Yunzhi couldn't go on, his face was full of unhappiness: "If the third brother can go back this time, the patriarch and grandfather will still be happy, but the rest of the clan is probably not so tolerant." ”

"Hu Dingtang doesn't need anyone's tolerance, does he?" I said.

Hu Yunzhi even echoed: "Yes, who is my third brother, he doesn't care about the rabble in the old mansion." ”

Saying this, the carriage has already gone up to Mingyang Mountain, I have been to the Hu Mansion, and as soon as I got out of the carriage, I went straight to my grandmother's room.

The last time I said goodbye, my grandmother hid from me and said that the Golden Silk Gu had been solved, but after that, she was tortured for so many days, and I was really worried about her.

Pushing the door in, my grandmother was sitting at the table waiting for me, and breakfast was prepared on the table, which should have been brought over after we entered the Hu Mansion.

Grandma is wearing a dark gray robe, which is new, and her overall appearance looks good, it seems that Hu Dingtang did not treat her badly here.

"Xiao Jiu, come to grandma and let grandma take a good look." My grandmother waved at me, and I hurriedly walked over and sat down beside her.

"Grandma, Xiao Jiu misses you so much."

"Silly boy, grandma is very good here, but you, this time is very difficult, right?"

My grandmother looked at me distressedly: "I'm not fat, but I can't see any flesh on my little face now." ”

"What's the matter, Xiao Jiu is good." I reassured.

My grandmother put a bowl of porridge in front of me and urged: "Drink some porridge to warm your stomach first, it's cold, grandma can't be by your side, take good care of yourself." ”

I held the bowl and nodded, my heart warm.

My grandmother watched me drink a small half bowl of porridge, and her eyes never took off me, and her eyes were so doting that she could wring out water.

Even if I confessed everything to her, in her heart, she never regarded me as an outsider, in her opinion, I was Meng Jiushang, Meng Jiushang who had recovered from dementia, nothing more.

When I put down the dishes and chopsticks, my grandmother opened her mouth again: "I heard that you and Hu Sanye ...... Got better? ”

Grandma asked, I almost choked on my own saliva when I asked, and nodded embarrassedly: "Count...... It's kind of good. ”

"Xiao Jiu," my grandmother held my hand, and her tone suddenly became solemn, "I also told you before that you can be good with Hu Sanye, but you have to grasp the proportions and be ready to retreat at any time. ”

"But Grandma, I'm already in it." I said solemnly, "And from the moment I decided to follow Hu Dingtang, I never thought that one day I would leave him and quit alone." ”

After I said this, I thought that my grandmother would persuade me bitterly, but I didn't expect her to pat her thigh and say, "That's it, it's better to come, what the blind man said back then really came true one by one." ”

"Blind?" My head was full of black lines, "Who is the blind man?" ”
