Elder Bai did not rush back to the refining room, but slowly walked on the path between the refining room and the firewood room, and both sides of the road were full of delicate begonia flowers in full bloom, which was Shu Shan's favorite flower.

The climate in the Western Regions was not particularly suitable for growing begonias, and during the rainy season, sometimes there was no sunlight for several days. Patches of begonia flowers are dry, often to the season of flowers, began to rain continuously, after a night of heavy rain, the petals all fell from the branches, which made Shushan very distressed, even if they can be fed, but always do not see them blooming, only a few pale red pieces that fell into the soil.

He once heard Shushan say that the reason why these begonia flowers can bloom so well now is all due to the credit of the owner of Huaihua Valley.

It was a day many years ago, and Shu Shan, who was still a teenager, secretly ran out of the village where he was born and raised him, and came to the Central Plains, by chance, he heard that there was such a place as Huaihua Valley, and it was rumored in the rivers and lakes that Huaihua Valley was rejuvenated, no matter what kind of incurable diseases, all of them could be solved, and the valley master was not only skilled in medicine, but also a bodhisattva.

At that time, Shu Shan didn't know what to think, and he actually felt that since the medical skills of Huaihua Valley were so clever, then there would definitely be a way to grow live begonia flowers in the Western Regions.

He asked questions along the way, and finally found the entrance of Huaihua Valley after walking a few times.

At that time, the old valley master was still alive, so Chu Huai was just an ordinary disciple of Huaihua Valley, and when he first met Shushan, he was still a diligent sweeping disciple at the entrance of Huaihua Valley.

"Are you also here to see the valley master?" The young man Chu Huai noticed the young man who was hesitating in the woods...... Or a girl?

"Ah, are you talking to Xiaosheng?" Shu Shan seemed to be startled by Chu Huai, and looked at the young man in front of him who didn't look as tall as he was.

It's just that his voice sounds a little indistinguishable, which makes Chu Huai even more unable to tell whether this person is male or female, he touched his face, am I so terrifying......

"yes, is there anyone else here besides the two of us?" Chu Huai pointed at him, then at himself, and spread his hands helplessly.

"That, Xiaosheng's name is Shushan, may I ask if this is Huaihua Valley?"

"Yes, this mountain behind me is Huaihua Valley."

"Xiao Sheng wants to see the valley master of Huaihua Valley, is there any way you can let me see him?"

"Seeing that you are not very old, do you have any disease?"

"Ah...... It's not Xiaosheng, it's Xiaosheng's favorite. ”

"Lover?" Chu Huai's eyes flashed with envy, "It's so good." ”

"Poor...... Pretty much. ”

"The valley lord should be reading in the stone house in the back mountain now, you wait for me here for a while, I'll go find my cousin, and then I'll take you to the valley lord again."

"Okay, thank you."

Chu Huai looked at the broom in his hand, then at Shu Shan, and without thinking about it, he stuffed the broom into his hand, and then ran towards one of the houses with medicine on the roof, he turned around and waved at Shu Shan as he ran: "You must wait for me to come back in the same place!" ”

"Ah, okay." Shushan lowered his head and looked at the broom in his hand suspiciously, does this person mean that I want him to sweep the floor......

Before Shu Shan could think clearly, he saw Chu Huai pull a young man who was about the same height as him and run out of the house.

The two quickly ran in front of Shu Shan, Chu Huai took the broom in Shu Shan's hand and put it into the hand of the young man beside him who was full of coldness between his eyebrows and eyes, when the young man didn't speak, Shu Shan even felt that the young man's body exuded a kind of breath that no one should enter.

"Cousin, you stand here for me for a while."

"Huh? Chu Huai, you pulled me here for this? Why don't you stand yourself? ”

The moment Shu Shan opened his mouth, he suddenly felt that this person didn't seem to be as indifferent as he seemed on the surface.

"I'm not going to take the guests to the valley master." Chu Huai said with a smile.

"Why is it that every time a guest comes to you is always standing guard, are these people all on an appointment? You must come when you are standing guard, and every time they come, you ask me to stand guard for you, why don't you just let me stand at all the posts? ”

"Cousin, if you want to, it's not impossible, I'm quite happy."

"Dream your spring and autumn dreams, come back as soon as you're done, I don't want to stand here for you all the time." As he spoke, the young man kicked Chu Huai's ass.

"Got it!" Chu Huai grimaced at the young man, took Shu Shan's hand, and ran up the mountain.

"Come on, this appearance is estimated to not come back for a while." The boy leaned on his broom, resting his chin lightly against the handle, his thoughts drifting into the woods in front of him, how could he be willing to promise him to stand guard for him every time.

……

"The ......"

"Just call me Chu Huai." Chu Huai let go of his hand and walked side by side with Shushan on the mountain road.

"Oh, okay, Chu Huai, who is that person just now? That guy doesn't seem to be very easy to get along with, but you and he seem to know each other very well. ”

"The guy you said was standing guard for me? His name is Hua Wufor, he is my cousin, because he is a cousin, he grew up together in Huaihua Valley since he was a child, so he will naturally be more familiar, and, don't look at his cousin like this, he is actually very easy to get along with, although he does look cold, but he sometimes, to put it bluntly, he is a chatterbox, can you imagine that picture? Just his face, expressionless and non-stop! Chu Huai said, as if he had thought of that picture, and laughed while eating.

"Flowers are unforgiving? But your surnames are also different, how can you be brothers? ”

"You don't understand that, do you? We are cousins, not brothers, and it's normal for us to have different surnames, but my mother and his father seem to be siblings. ”

"I see, Xiaosheng understands."

"Are you the only ones with the same surname who are brothers?"

"Not really." Shu Shan shook his head, "In our place, the inhabitants of an entire village are surnamed Chu. ”

"Then you're really a big family." Chu Huai lowered his head and walked through a row of wisteria trellises, walked in front of Shu Shan, and began to move backwards, obviously very curious about the village that Shu Shan was talking about.

"We are not related by blood, and many of us are even unnamed."

"Huh? People you don't know are all the same surname? It's the first time I've heard of such a thing! It's really fresh. ”

"Chu Huai, won't you trip over it if you walk like this?" Shu Shan saw that Chu Huai's attention was not placed on his feet, even on the steps, he was still as light as walking on the ground.

"Why, I can walk this road with my eyes closed." Although Chu Huai said this, he still turned around honestly, waiting for Shu Shan to come up and stand side by side with him, and then stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the mountainside, "Look, that courtyard is where the stone house is located." ”
