Liu Wangchun smiled kindly: "Then it will bother the little brother." ”

Duan Jiu got up and asked where the dining room of the Yuhua Pavilion was, Ling'er stood up and said first: "Ling'er knows." ”

Originally, this dining room is next to this staircase, the first half of the Yuhua Pavilion is in the center of the lobby, dedicated to patients to see a doctor, and on the left is a large pharmacy, but most of the drugs in this pharmacy are not sold, and they are reserved for the poor who really can't afford to buy medicinal materials. Some of the herbs he picked himself in the nearby mountains, but most of them were donated by other rescued people. On the right side of the lobby is his living room, because he is old, he is reluctant to climb the stairs, and it is convenient to live on the ground floor to see a doctor and rest when he is tired.

In the back half of Yuhua Pavilion, there is a circular staircase on the left, a dining room on the middle side, and a thatched toilet on the right.

Ling'er has been in Yuhua Pavilion for two days, she is lively and active by nature, so she naturally looked at the entire Yuhua Pavilion where she could touch it.

In the dining room, there is a wooden table with cutting board knives on the side of the door facing the wooden window, which is used to organize the ingredients because it is convenient for natural light. On the right side of the wooden table is a clay stove, with a large iron pot and a small iron pot, and firewood is placed on the side of the stove. On the innermost wall, against the wall, there is a wooden shelf with ingredients, dishes, chopsticks and spoons, and a large water tank next to the wooden shelf.

Duan Jiu entered the dining room and was very satisfied when he saw that the dining room had everything he needed. Then he and Ling'er began to get busy.

"Ling'er, where did this dish come from?" Duan Jiu was cutting the dish, puzzled.

Ling'er explained: "Grandpa Liu planted it in the mountains, and the meat was bought by Brother Xia in the morning from a nearby village. ”

Duan Jiu asked again, "Where did the food in the Ling Senior's cave come from?"

Ling'er drooped her head, looked at Duan Jiu, and said, "Well, Sister Ling planted it at the foot of the mountain." As for the meat, it was caught by Grandpa in the mountains. Why does my brother ask this?"

Duan Jiu smiled and said, "Brother just wants to come out for a few days, will Grandpa Wei be hungry." ”

Ling'er pouted: "Brother really thinks too much. With Sister Ling and Brother Zhao here, how can it be possible to make Grandpa Wei hungry?"

Duan Jiu put down the knife, looked at Ling'er seriously, and said, "What Ling'er said is true." ”

Duan Jiu was about to raise the knife, but a familiar fragrance wafted from outside the door, and Heavenly Maiden Xi slowly walked in the door and said gently: "Duan Gongzi, let me come." ”

Duan Jiu glanced at Heavenly Maiden Xi, her face was gentle, she didn't see the indifference and resistance she had this morning, her heart was both surprised and relaxed, and she chuckled, "It's out of the way." ”

Heavenly Maiden Xi walked over and took the knife in Duan Jiu's hand, only to see her slender jade hands, the fingers were slender and snow-white, very good-looking. She clenched the knife and shredded the dish gently, although the technique was not clumsy, but she could also see that she was a newcomer who had just learned to cook, and she didn't know how to cut it, so she was slow and careful.

When Duan Jiu saw it, he wanted to give some pointers, but he was embarrassed to speak, and stood beside her in a daze, staring straight at the jade hand of the other person in a daze, and found that something was wrong, his face was slightly red, and he raised his head and looked ahead. This series of subtle activities was only noticed by others for a few seconds, but Duan Jiu felt as embarrassed as being stared at by thousands of pairs of eyes.

Heavenly Maiden Xi suddenly spoke: "I saw the man wearing the white mask today. ”

Duan Jiu was taken aback and said, "Well, is it?"

Celestial Maiden Xi continued: "I was outside in the courtyard, and I saw him coming out of it with a blood-stained dagger. He could have gone directly to the back mountain, but the two men in red clothes didn't see him, he deliberately bumped into them. ”

Duan Jiu didn't know whether he was surprised or delighted, Heavenly Maiden Xi's words proved his inference, but at this time, his head felt very hot, and he just stood there dumbfounded.

It's like two people standing in front of the window, one is talking softly, and the other is listening quietly.

Tiannu Xi bit her lower lip and said hesitantly, "Why did he frame you?"

Duan Jiu didn't know why Heavenly Maiden Xi suddenly asked this, and glanced back at Heavenly Maiden Xi in shock, but the two were too close, and when he saw her snow-like face, he immediately turned around shyly, and Mu Ne said, "I...... I do not know. ”

Heavenly Maiden Xi suddenly smiled lightly, leaned into Duan Jiu's ear, and asked coquettishly, "Have you ever killed someone?"

Duan Jiu instinctively turned sideways in embarrassment, nodded and smiled, and walked out of the dining room.

Ling'er was picking up food on the cupboard, thinking about what to eat, but after thinking about it, her little mouth pouted and pouted, and she didn't particularly want to eat, so she turned around and wanted to ask Duan Jiu what she wanted to eat, but when she saw that Duan Jiu was already gone, she chased after him and said, "Brother, where are you going?"

Ling'er pulled Duan Jiu at the door and said, "Brother, how can you let Sister Xiaoxi cook alone?"

Duan Jiu turned around slowly, and thought about it, the eldest husband is not afraid of life and death, and he does not bully women, I have to lead by example. Then he slowly walked into the dining room, and sat silently in front of the stove, which means, "Then I will make a fire." ”

Seeing Duan Jiu sitting back on the stove stupidly, Heavenly Maiden Xi felt that Duan Jiu was a little honest and cute, so she chuckled lightly without covering her mouth.

Ling'er leaned over to Tiannu Xi and said, "Sister Xiaoxi, can Ling'er help you do something?"

Tiannu Xi smiled: "Ling'er go to the cabinet shelf to help my sister bring that fish." ”

In this way, the three of them were busy in the dining room, and it took half an hour to prepare the dishes and put them on the table, it was already dusk, and the sky was dark.

After Xia Xiaozhu finished watching the patient, he closed the door of Yuhua Pavilion and returned to the backyard, where he saw that the five people were already sitting at the round table waiting for him. He smiled innocently and sat down in his seat.

Liu Wangchun pays attention to "food is not spoken", and several people at the dinner table did not say much. After finishing the meal and cleaning up the meal, Liu Wangchun left Duan Jiu and Ling Jianxian to sit and talk with him.

Duan Jiu was still haunted by the murder of the Confucian Elder of the Yanshang Hall today, and personally apologized: "Senior Liu, because of me today, the Confucian Elder will die in the Xuan Pavilion. Yuhua Pavilion is originally a place to save lives and help the wounded, and it should not be contaminated with human blood, I Duan Jiu ......"

Before Duan Jiu finished speaking, Liu Wangchun smiled and stopped, "Little brother doesn't have to be like this. Do you think that there are still few people who have died in Yuhua Pavilion over the years? As long as you live in the world, you will inevitably get involved in the world's disputes, and there is nothing to be sorry for. ”

Liu Wangchun looked at Ling Jianxian again and said with a smile: "What's more, you are Ling You's friend, so you can be regarded as my friend." It really doesn't hurt, it really doesn't hurt. ”

When Duan Jiu heard the word friend, a trace of surprise and hesitation flashed in his heart. Friend, what a strange word to him. What is a friend? The lonely Duan Jiu, who had no friends three years ago, actually had friends three years later?

Duan Jiu suddenly flashed through the experience of more than half a month, and he realized that his life had become so wonderful and strange. Zhao Shisan, Ling Jianxian, Ling Xueqing, Tiannuxi, Xia Xiaozhu, Liu Wangchun...... How could so many people suddenly break into his frozen and isolated life?

Has he changed? Or have these people melted the blood that had flowed in his heart?

Starting from Zhao Thirteen, Duan Jiu found that there was no point in protecting him by being alone. Everything that should come still seems to come, and everything that can be stopped no longer seems to be alone.

It's an amazing feeling.

Duan Jiu's face lightly hooked a trace of arc, and said, "Thank you Senior Liu." ”

Liu Wangchun stroked his beard and chuckled.

After laughing, he suddenly looked at Duan Jiu quite seriously and asked, "I heard that you are the person who is the "owner of the village"?"

Duan Jiu was startled, looked at Liu Wangchun vigilantly, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Liu Wangchun suddenly smiled and said: "Don't be nervous, Act 9, the main section of the ninth act, I have heard some about you, but what I heard before was a person driving a carriage and wearing a white mask." Tonight, I saw a living person. I've also heard a little about the "village master", and I've heard some of the curtain master, which may be the benefit of old age. ”

After speaking, Liu Wangchun couldn't help laughing, like proud, very cute.

Duan Jiu listened, his heart relaxed, he has been quite active in the rivers and lakes in the past three years, and the "village master" has also taken frequent actions, people like Liu Wangchun who have experienced the vicissitudes of the world know and hear a lot. It's normal to know the "owner of the village".

Duan Jiu suddenly burst out with a question that he had been wondering about for a long time, and asked, "Does Senior Liu know who the "village master" is?"

Liu Wangchun squinted at Duan Jiu and said with a smile: "What's the matter, you, the number one thug who was born and died for him, don't even know who he is?"

Duan Jiu shook his head helplessly and embarrassedly, and said, "I really don't know. ”

Liu Wangchun smiled: "Then I really don't know." Haha......"

Duan Jiu felt a little lost, but in fact, he knew in his heart that the answer was like this, the "village master" had never shown his face, and it was extremely mysterious, he didn't know, how could others know?

Liu Wangchun saw Duan Jiu's look of loss, and said with a smile: "But I can see that you are doing the biggest stupid thing in the world." ”

Duan Jiu was puzzled, he avenged his parents, and kept getting stronger, although he often did what he didn't want to do, but he did get the help of the "village master", and when he and Ling'er practiced the spirit of the Qiankun Gong to the tenth layer, then no one in the world could be defeated, and naturally they could take revenge and retreat. In front of the deep hatred in the sea of blood, he is still willing to be calm and ready to go, how can he talk about stupidity?

Duan Jiu asked, "Why did Senior Liu say this?"

Liu Wangchun said with a smile: "Isn't it stupid for a person like you to not throw himself under Ling You, not to my Yuhua Pavilion, but to go to the side of the "village master"?"

Duan Jiu was dumbfounded, how could he not know that the "village master" was not a good person? But three years ago, he didn't have the fate to know Ling Jianxian, nor did he have the fate to know Liu Wangchun, and he didn't know anything about the art of control three years ago. It was the "village master" who brought him endless strength and gave him hope for revenge; although every task was contrary to the morality of his understanding, who was right and who was wrong in this world? Three years ago, he felt that his father was right, but what he could get was a bloody case! What this world needs is strength, what it needs is strength, and only when it is strong can it have the ability to decide right and wrong, right and wrong, good and evil!

No one wants to be involuntarily self-conscious, but no one is self-conscious.

Whether it is Ling Jianxian or Liu Wangchun, no matter how strong they are, can they bring Duan Jiu a Ling'er? Without Ling'er, Duan Jiu is just a waste. Duan Jiu didn't have a choice, never had a choice.

Duan Jiu smiled bitterly: "Thank you seniors for your appreciation." ”

Liu Wangchun looked at the bright moon in the sky, the surrounding dark clouds were illuminated by the moonlight, a gust of evening wind blew, the dark clouds drowned the moon, only the stars in the sky were still shining.

Liu Wangchun looked at Ling Jianxian again, and finally looked at Duan Jiu, and said, "I have a good place to go, are you willing to quit the 'village master' and join them?"

Duan Jiu shook his head decisively and refused: "Thank you seniors for your appreciation, I still have my own things to solve." When the matter is resolved, Duan Jiu is just an ordinary person, and he doesn't want to be entangled in the rivers and lakes anymore. ”
