"Got beaten again today?"

In the decaying and dilapidated thatched hut, a yellow-faced and thin-skinned boy lay on a pile of withered yellow weeds, frowning his eyebrows, looking up at the thin boy with a blue nose and swollen face in front of him, his eyes full of resentment.

After a long time, seeing that the other party was still silent, he sighed and said: "I'm just suffering from some wind and cold, why don't you go and pick up some sheep dung for two steamed buns for me?

This is a dilapidated thatched hut that has been in disrepair for a long time and no one cares about, located in the outskirts of Yangshan Town, which is very deserted. The two teenagers are both fatherless and motherless orphans, and the two are not brothers, and they have long forgotten when they met, and it seems that the two have been dependent on each other for as long as they can remember.

Their names were also obtained by themselves, and at first they followed the sheep to pick up sheep dung every day, so the big one called himself the eldest sheep, and the small one naturally became the second sheep.

Later, after the name of the two spread, many children of the same age in the town ridiculed them, making them understand that this kind of name is really not good. According to the boy who studied in the town, he was extremely vulgar and unbearable!

Therefore, the two racked their brains in order to come up with a nice name. Finally, the younger boy looked at the clear and waveless river in front of him, and suddenly remembered an unusual word he had heard to describe the river—river.

Thinking so, I inadvertently looked up and saw the tender green willow above my head dancing lightly in the wind. The leaves on the slender branches after the rain are all verdant and beautiful, and the vitality on them is also very kind and comfortable.

Since then, one is called Da Chuan and the other is called Xiao Chuan, both with Ye as their surname.

The days passed quietly, and the two became fifteen or sixteen-year-old young men in a blink of an eye. According to the custom of the town, he has reached the age of starting a family. But on their terms, no family was willing to marry their daughter to them.

On weekdays, the two of them have nothing to do except help people herd sheep and pick up sheep dung to sell, so they are ragged all day long, hungry, and skinny, with yellow faces and thin muscles.

And their physique is really good, they still drink cold water and wear single clothes in the cold winter, and their body resistance is excellent. But this time, for some reason, Ye Xiaochuan contracted the wind cold, and there was no sign of improvement for many days.

In this regard, Ye Dachuan was naturally anxious. In particular, I have heard others accidentally mention that the wind chill thing can be big or small, it is difficult to measure, and it is normal to lose your life if you don't get it right.

Every time he came back in the past two days, he had the first half of the roast chicken or a little foie gras that the brothers could only eat during the New Year's holidays. Naturally, these things could not have been bought, so he came back again and again covered with scars, and his face was covered with tiredness that could not be concealed.

"You don't have to worry about me, let's get through this first!" Ye Dachuan subconsciously scratched his head with his hand, but unfortunately hit the wound, and the pain made him gasp continuously.

Ye Xiaochuan didn't move the half of the roast chicken in front of him, he supported himself with both hands, slowly erected his body, leaned against the dilapidated mud wall behind him, lowered his head, his long hair covered his eyes with aura, and said in a deep voice: "It's not stealing, right?"

"No, of course not!"

Hearing this, Ye Dachuan hurriedly waved his hands eagerly, and said with a serious expression: "You know that I will never lie." ”

"Is it Letu?" Ye Xiaochuan's face suddenly sank, as if he had thought of something, raised his head and looked at Ye Dachuan sharply, and said coldly: "Are you going to be a sandbag for others again?"

"That's enough! I'm your brother, just listen to me, why do you ask so much?" Ye Dachuan suddenly said in a loud voice, which caught people a little off guard.

The cold wind was raging outside, and the only sound in the room was the crackling of planks against the walls and the sound of whimpering, and the brothers were silent.

Seeing the sunset and the sky dimming, Ye Dachuan couldn't help but take the lead in breaking the silence after all, and said softly: "Xiaochuan, you can eat something......! Not anymore. ”

As soon as these words came out, Ye Xiaochuan, who was hungry and dizzy, swallowed some chicken with his body, drank a large bowl of hot and unboiled water, and fell asleep groggy.

And Ye Dachuan kept squatting in the shadow of the corner and staring silently until Ye Xiaochuan fell asleep, his eyebrows were all twisted together from beginning to end. If this continues, no one knows what will happen.

When he stood up and carefully examined Ye Xiaochuan's haggard and thin face with the help of the faint starlight, he unconsciously gritted his teeth, and there was a faint light flashing in his eyes.

Today, the notorious bullly Second Master Long in the town asked people to post a notice: he is old and unable to do things, and he wants to take in a godson. Everyone knows that he is known for his ferocity, but no one understands why such a powerful villain is not close to women. So much so that there are almost no heirs in the sixtieth century.

Just now, Ye Dachuan was thinking about this.

This is undoubtedly a shortcut to the sky. But there is no need to talk about all the disgraceful drawbacks in the meantime.

He actually didn't care about this, but what should Xiaochuan do? He was most disgusted by this kind of thing, and he recognized the thief as his father, and he was also inferior.

However, if he does not do so, it is not certain that he will be able to survive this hurdle. Besides, we have nothing else to do, and without the help of external forces, we can only live alone and do nothing for the rest of our lives. ”

He stared at Ye Xiaochuan's thin body curled up, and his heart became more and more firm in his thoughts.

In the early morning of the next day, Ye Dachuan left in a hurry after some admonitions. And Ye Xiaochuan only felt weak, and he didn't even have the strength to speak, but Mu Ran nodded in response.

Erlongtang, a place in Yangshan Town that makes people talk about it.

is completely different from what Ye Dachuan thought, not that the atmosphere here is not as eerie and terrifying as the legend, but that there are only three people who come to apply and him.

"Yes, there are three junjie who know the current affairs. Second Master Long's shrill voice sounded extremely harsh.

"Godfather has won the award!" The man on Ye Dachuan's left hand side was very clever, and immediately answered. This made him and the other person feel remorseful that they had lost the opportunity so easily.

Sure enough, Second Master Long was very useful when he heard this, and praised this person with a smile. But then his voice changed, and he said, "Do you know why I have never been close to women?"

The three of them didn't dare to criticize it, and they all shook their heads with blank faces.

"I'm a eunuch!" Second Master Long lowered his head and picked up a strand of his gray hair and rubbed it carefully, and said lightly: "So, according to the tradition of inheriting the father's business, you also have to be like me, right?"

Several people were very surprised by this truth, but what suffocated them was the latter sentence. The faces of the three of them suddenly became extremely ugly, as if they had just swallowed a dead fly.

"I ......" Ye Dachuan and the clever guy before spit out a word at the same time. After the two glanced at each other, they saw that the former's eyes were firm, and he said without hesitation: "I do!"

"Hehe, I've always liked adult beauty, so I won't fight with you......" Before the man finished speaking, he lowered his head in shock, and at some point, there was an ink-colored short sword on his chest.

"Zizi ......"

In a few moments, the man turned into a pool of blood, and even his bones were melted away, so frightened that Ye Dachuan and the other person had a snow-white face, a trembling body, and they didn't dare to let out of the atmosphere.

Second Master Long took out a white silk handkerchief of unknown material, and calmly scooped the short sword out of the bloody water. There were only a few blood beads on the silk handkerchief, which were as round as the water droplets on the lotus leaves, and the white silk was a little scarlet, which had a unique style, but it was finally sprinkled by Long Erye's shaking hands.

Then, he laughed twice and said, "I hate this kind of opportunistic but risky waste the most in my life!"

"I'm willing too!" the other person almost cried out, and after facing the second master of Shanglong's staring eyes, his whole person immediately collapsed to the ground, and a smell of commotion spread into the air.

"Get out!" Second Master Long looked extremely disgusted, covering his mouth and nose with one hand, waving the other hand impatiently, and said angrily: "I'll count to three, if you don't leave, you will stay forever!"

As soon as the words fell, the guy immediately jumped up and ran towards the door like a gust of wind, making Ye Dachuan stunned, he originally thought that this guy could only sit and wait for death, unable to move. This is also the first time in his life that he realizes that the power of survival should not be underestimated.

"Poof!"

But the wicked never speak of trust. The astonishing speed at which he burst out with his thirst for life was nothing compared to the sharp sword that flew out.

Only Ye Dachuan was left in the hall, and he was independent.

"From today on, you will be my godson!" Second Master Long's dark eyes glanced at Ye Dachuan faintly, and there was no sadness or joy on his face.

As he spoke, he took out a large money bag sewn from high-quality silk from his pocket, flipped it in his hand, threw it at Ye Dachuan, and said, "Take it and buy decent clothes...... Buy one for your brother too. You will live in Changchun Building in the future, and helping your godfather take care of the business there can be regarded as a training and examination school. ”

"Dry ...... Godfather, when will I ......" Ye Dachuan wanted to speak and stopped, facing such love, there was still no joy on his face.

Second Master Long was stunned for a moment, and after he understood, he smiled and said, "I just want to know if you can be ruthless with yourself, that, don't count!"

Ye Dachuan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, his face gradually returned to normal, and he said respectfully: "Godfather, don't worry, my son will not let you down!"

After leaving Erlongtang, Ye Dachuan walked home with heavy steps, and he didn't stretch his eyebrows all the way, he really didn't know how to open his mouth to Ye Xiaochuan.

And today, the road seems to have become shorter.

The almost deserted hut soon appeared in front of him, and looking at the broken wooden plank at the door, a wave of anger suddenly rose in his chest, and he thought back to what had happened to the two brothers over the years.

He suddenly felt that maybe this was providence, and it was time for their brother to turn over!

Before this aura dissipated, he quickly removed the wooden plank in front of him and discarded it casually. However, his impassioned statement did not come in the slightest.

In front of him, Ye Xiaochuan's face was pale, his brows were tightly locked, his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and his body was curled up in the weeds and shivering.

Ye Dachuan's brain was blank for a moment at first, and then he rushed forward eagerly, leaned over and touched his hand, his forehead was really hot and scary, and after a little hesitation, he picked up Ye Xiaochuan and rushed to the best medical hall in the town-Miaoshou Rejuvenation Hall.

"Get out of the way!" Ye Dachuan scolded the person in front of him with a cold expression.

"Hmph, what do you kid want to do? Do you know where this is?"

A thin guy wearing a cloth hat and two golden characters embroidered on his cuffs blocked the door of the Rejuvenation Hall, and said with a teasing face: "Your brother seems to be not lightly ill, hurry up and pour some muddy water on him! Why waste time going in, I will bring you out later!"

"You...... Look for death!" Ye Dachuan is completely angry! The bastard in front of him is the same age as him, because he is very respected by the old doctor, and he has not been a poor child like him on weekdays, but he has never really held a grudge.

And this time, he was furious in his heart, and he couldn't wait to immediately dismantle it into eight pieces and break the corpse into thousands of pieces!

"Tsk, you look ...... I'm scared to death! Just rely on your ......" This guy clasped his hands on his shoulders, leaned on the door frame and looked down at Ye Dachuan condescendingly, but before he finished speaking, he was surprised to see a masked black-clothed man coming out of nowhere.

A white light flickered, and the knife fell in his hand, clean and neat. A good head rose to the sky, and the hot blood instantly rushed to the door beam, and the pungent smell of blood diffused.

Ye Dachuan was startled at first, and then glanced thoughtfully at the back of the man in black who was gradually moving away, the corners of his mouth slowly raised a strange arc, and he didn't stop, raised his feet and stepped over the still warm headless corpse, and went straight into the Rejuvenation Hall.
