The rain is still falling.

The spring rain drenched the entire Chang'an City, a thousand-year-old capital, was covered with a faint layer of water vapor in the drizzle, so that the black mansion on the other side of the street looked a little unreal.

"Sir, this is the money to buy a house, you can count it. The young man with a black cat standing on his shoulder and a white cloth tied to his right arm respectfully handed the old man a money bag.

The old man in sackcloth took the money bag, weighed it slightly in his hand, and suddenly smiled.

"Enough, enough. He nodded again and again, then said goodbye to the young man and slowly retreated.

The boy watched the old man leave until his back disappeared into the hazy drizzle. The boy then turned his head to look at the house in front of him.

It was a courtyard that could not be smaller, the wooden door was dilapidated, and there were even a few gaps in it, which seemed to have been corroded by wind and rain and had not been repaired for a long time.

The boy looked at the gate of Nafumen, but nodded with a smile, as if he was very satisfied with the new residence.

"Xuan'er, we will live here from today onwards. He smiled and looked at the black cat on his shoulder, and reached out to touch the black cat's head.

The black cat blinked its amber eyes and tilted its head to look at the boy, not seeming to understand what he meant, but enjoying the boy's touch, and rubbing it against the boy's neck, purring in its throat with satisfaction.

The boy smiled at this, and he turned to look at the opposite corner of the street. A few snooping glances were taken back at that time, the young man didn't care, he looked at the black mansion opposite, bowed there, and said loudly: "From today on, Xu will be neighbors with the first adult, and ask the first adult to give him more advice." ”

He said this, ignoring the jackals who were peeping in secret, and turned around and walked into the small mansion.

......

"Brother Xu, I bought a house next to Zhu's Mansion and lived there. Liu Xiao arched his hand towards Ye Hongjian, the boy's brows furrowed slightly, obviously quite worried about this matter.

Ye Hongjian, who was sitting in the position of the head of the mansion, looked at Liu Xiao sideways, and I have to say that this young man is quite smart, and in just a few months, he has understood the affairs of Tiance Mansion very thoroughly. Today, nearly half of the new recruits are managed by teenagers.

"What's the matter?, are you worried about him?" Ye Hongjian asked.

"Hmm. Liu Xiao nodded, but he didn't hide what he thought in his heart. "Although Brother Xu is a little reckless, in the final analysis, it is also for the sake of Tiance Mansion, I don't understand why I have to let him leave. ”

"It's his own choice. Ye Hongjian said in a deep voice.

"Shall we watch him die, then?" the boy was unhappy with such a statement. He remembered very clearly that if Xu Han hadn't risked his life and went to Gu Gongzi's mansion, he and his sister would have ended up farming, and he couldn't imagine it.

"What, want to go to him?" asked Ye Hongjian with a raised brow.

When the young man heard this, his face changed slightly, but he finally nodded.

"Does Mo'er know about this?" Ye Hongjian did not entangle with him on this issue, but asked so.

The young man shook his head: "According to what you mean, this news has not yet been said to Mo'er and Sister Keqing, but the paper can't contain the fire, and they will have to know sooner or later." ”

"Hmm. Ye Hongjian nodded, "If you can hide it for a while, it's a while." ”

After saying that, the two fell silent, but Ye Hongjian frowned and his face was gloomy.

Seeing Ye Hongjian like this, the young man gritted his teeth, and always plucked up the courage to say, "Sister Ye, let's go and persuade Brother Xu." He's out alone, it's not a solution after all, if there's something we can solve together, isn't it?"

Hearing this, Ye Hongjian glanced at the young man deeply, and then said: "You first stabilize Mo'er and Keqing, let them go and don't act rashly, leave this matter to me, I will personally go to him to see what he plans to do." ”

When Liu Xiao heard this, his face immediately turned happy. He nodded hurriedly, "Okay! Sister Ye don't worry, I will definitely stop Mo'er and Keqing." ”

The boy said goodbye and retired.

And Ye Hongjian sat alone in the mansion of Nuoda, silent for a long time, then nodded and muttered: "Wrongdoer." ”

So saying, she also stood up, and went out of the house to find the man.

But when she reached the door, a figure suddenly appeared there.

It was a man, dressed in a blue robe, with slightly frosty temples, and was about forty years old.

When he saw the person's appearance clearly, Ye Hongjian couldn't help but exclaim, "Dad?"

When the man heard this, he smiled slightly. "Let's talk." ”

......

As the night deepened, Xu Han sat alone in his room in the dilapidated mansion.

Red candles are lit on the wooden tables in the house, and the candles flicker, illuminating the scene in the house in a flickering light. The spring rain outside the house is still not stopping, but there is a tendency to get bigger and bigger.

Xuan'er curled up on the bed that had just been made up by Xuan, and fell asleep. Xu Han looked at the scarlet long sword in his hand, his eyes were deep, and he didn't know what to think.

Squeak.

At this moment, there was a soft sound in the direction of the courtyard gate, and the wooden door of the courtyard was slowly pushed open.

"Xiao Han, your yard is good!" the visitor did not have the slightest intention of breaking into the mansion without permission, and shouted loudly after entering the house.

Hearing the sound of the urn, Xu Han did not pursue the faux pas and offenses of the comer, he stood up, looked at the man who walked into the house with two jars of wine, smiled slightly, and said, "How can Brother Chu have time to come here?"

Chu Qiuli stepped into the house, leaving a dirty footprint on the floor that was cleaned by Xu Han, but he strode to Xu Han as if he didn't realize it, and put the two jars of fine wine in his hand in front of Xu Han with a bang.

"Come, drink. The middle-aged man said loudly.

After saying that, he skillfully ripped off the seal on the wine jar and handed one of the jars to Xu Han.

Xu Han took the half-person-high wine jar, still looked at the man with a smile, and asked, "It's okay to drink, but Brother Chu has to tell me first, what is the so-called matter here?"

Chu Qiuli, who was about to drink happily when he picked up the wine jar, suddenly showed displeasure on his face, and he muttered: "Xiao Han, how can you learn those sour Confucianism, you have to ask everything about it, I Chu someone wants to drink if he wants to drink, and it is a matter of course who to drink, and the king of heaven and Lao Tzu can't care about it." ”

It's just that these words obviously can't dispel Xu Han's doubts, and the young man still holds the wine jar and looks at him with a smile.

Knowing that he couldn't get through the tricks, the middle-aged man's face turned red, and then he whispered again: "Tiance Mansion is not comfortable, I see that there is a partial house next to your courtyard, I will clean up and live here, this wine is the house money!"

Xu Han naturally heard the meaning of Chu Qiuli's words, he squinted his eyes at this seemingly harmless man, and asked in a deep voice: "There is a way that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, Xu is now a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and it is difficult to protect himself, Brother Chu doesn't want to stay away from me, but instead leans towards me, isn't it too strange?"

"What gentleman doesn't stand under the dangerous wall, these rotten rules, Lao Tzu doesn't understand. ”

"Lao Tzu only knows the rules of stealing the Holy Gate. ”

"Buy and leave, no regrets. ”

"Chu made a bet, and he had to move forward one by one. ”

"I hit the south wall and didn't look back. ”
