Ding's house is on the north street of Huacheng, which belongs to the sphere of influence of the Qingfeng Gang, Xi'an County is very large, Ding Chusheng is of course more than this residence, but Huacheng is also very important to the Qingfeng Gang, not to mention that his nephew is in the Baiyu Restaurant in Huacheng, Ding Chusheng will of course have a house in Huacheng.

The area of this house is not large, because Ding Chusheng does not come to Huacheng often, this is just a place for him to live temporarily, as long as he can rest.

Although it is not large, the courtyard is still well maintained, with rockeries, a small flower garden, and a small pond.

There were not many servants, about three or four, mainly to help Ding Chusheng take care of the fish raised in the pond and fertilize the flower beds when he was away.

This night was as usual, he had had dinner, and was reading by candlelight, when there was a sudden movement outside the study, and then the door opened, and a man staggered in.

Ding Chusheng frowned, looked at the people who came in, and reprimanded: "Mu Xuan, uncle has taught you so much, why are you still so unstable." ”

Ding Muxuan trembled, lowering his head and not daring to look at Ding Chusheng at all.

"Senior Ding, don't be surprised if you take the liberty to visit. ”

Li Mengzhou walked into the study, staring at the person sitting in front of him with a pair of starry eyes.

He glanced around the furnishings in the study, and in addition to all kinds of scrolls, they were potted plants, but there was not a single blade that should have appeared.

He looked at Ding Chusheng with a little surprise and said: "I didn't expect Senior Ding to be an elegant person, I thought that the house of the crazy knife should be full of weapons, but the kid judged people by his appearance." ”

Ding Chusheng silently looked at the young man in front of him, and seemed not surprised by Li Mengzhou's arrival at all, or maybe his steadiness and super high psychological quality would not show surprise on his face.

He used to go to the study to read a book before going to bed, and when he was young, he didn't have much talent, and naturally he couldn't read much, and the only thing he was good at was fighting and killing.

As he grew older, he began to pay attention to the connotation, and specially invited Mr.

He no longer danced with a knife, but raised flowers, fish, read books, and studied the art of war by the way, but he also lived very comfortably.

Stretching out his hand to signal Li Mengzhou to take a seat, Ding Chusheng said lightly: "When I get older, my preferences will naturally change, do you think that the little brother is just a reckless man." ”

Li Mengzhou said: "This is just a natural emotion that is different from what I have seen, don't misunderstand Senior Ding." ”

Ding Chusheng said with a smile: "Self-righteous things have always been unobjective, especially for unfamiliar people, it is impossible to see through them at a glance, but they are used to superficial suspicions, so getting along with people is never so simple." What is revealed on the surface is not necessarily false, but it is not the whole story, and sometimes it is a very bad thing to think that it is really true. ”

Li Mengzhou was deeply touched.

On the surface, it is indeed easy to misunderstand people's self-perception.

And what he wants to know more now is whether he misunderstood Ding Chusheng.

......

Huacheng North Street is a very quiet place, which is also the main reason why Ding Chusheng chose to live here, Li Mengzhou couldn't understand it at first, but he gradually understood that after experiencing many things, a person is indeed prone to great changes.

Li Mengzhou couldn't help but laugh at himself when he thought of himself.

Ding Muxuan came to the study and looked at Li Mengzhou's departing back, with a complicated expression.

He didn't listen to the conversation between Li Mengzhou and Ding Chusheng, so he didn't know what the two of them said.

He just saw that Ding Chusheng's face didn't seem to look good, which made him feel very nervous.

But the strange thing is that Ding Chusheng didn't say anything to him, but seemed to be thinking about some questions, and he was stunned.

Subsequently, Ding Muxuan was grounded.

Li Mengzhou returned to the inn and found that Ye Sangyu was not in the room, I don't know why, he actually felt a trace of loss in his heart.

I thought that even if Ye Sangyu was leaving, he should say hello to himself, right? Although the two of them have nothing to do with each other, this is the least politeness.

Throwing the Pu knife aside, Li Mengzhou was about to lie on the bed when he suddenly heard some movement, and his brows furrowed slightly.

This inn is three stories high, the top floor is paved with green tiles, and the night has completely fallen, and a bright moon seems to be on the roof, reflecting a petite figure.

After Li Mengzhou climbed onto the roof, he saw Ye Sangyu.

Ye Sangyu sat on the roof, with her back to the bright moon, the bright moonlight seemed to wrap her, shining with silver light, and she really looked like a fairy who had fallen into the dust.

She propped her elbows on her legs, supported her cheeks with both hands, and silently looked in one direction, not knowing what she was thinking, and her expression was a little lonely.

Li Mengzhou looked at her in such a daze, Ye Sangyu at this moment is undoubtedly the most beautiful, under the fantastic moonlight, it is difficult for people to find flaws.

Ye Sangyu did not apply rouge gouache on her face, her lips were a little pale, and the fine pores on her cheeks were clearly visible under the silver glow of the moonlight, like a porcelain doll.

Natural beauty is nothing more than that.

He felt that Ye Sangyu should be the kind of person who had never been frustrated, had a kind heart, and was also very good at entertaining himself, most of the smiles appeared on his face, and he rarely looked so sad.

But Li Mengzhou quietly looked at Ye Sangyu for a while, and found that she seemed to have something on her mind, and felt that her previous smile had an element of forced laughter.

He didn't understand what Ye Sangyu was hiding in his heart, but he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, this feeling came very suddenly, and it also made Li Mengzhou very puzzled.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Mengzhou came to Ye Sangyu's side and sat down.

This is not the highest place in the flower city, but there are no tall buildings on all sides, and you can see the bright moon and the night view of the flower city as if you are within reach.

Ye Sangyu noticed Li Mengzhou, didn't look at him, and said as if talking to himself: "Life should be the most uncontrollable thing, although it is beautiful, but sometimes it can be painful, what is the meaning of life?"

Li Mengzhou frowned slightly, and said: "Fate is destined by Dao Tian, for ordinary people, it is the most ethereal existence, and some people want to control their own destiny, so there are cultivators.

But even a cultivator should not be able to change his fate, because he cannot inherit the will of Dao Tian, and he is just chasing the shadow cast by Dao Tian in the world. But at least compared to ordinary people, cultivators are more aware of their fate, and even touch it.

There is no such thing as fate to explain, and this is true for us. Life and even all things in the world are endowed by the Dao Heavens, and the cultivators who chase the shadow of the Dao Heavens should one day be able to solve the difficult problems of fate.

I don't know if the peak of the current practice has already been enlightened, but it is said that after becoming a practitioner, a person's longevity will also increase, which may also be a way to change fate. ”

Ye Sangyu tilted his head to look at Li Mengzhou and said, "What you are talking about should be the things recorded in the collection, many of the three thousand Dao Collections of cultivation have been left in the world, but most of them are fragments, which are the analysis of cultivation.

It is true that cultivators can get closer to their fate, but they can live longer by becoming a cultivator, this is just a process, and most practitioners have no way to change their destiny at all, and perhaps the legend of 'immortality' is just a luxury or fantasy in people's hearts, something that does not exist at all. ”

Li Mengzhou looked at Ye Sangyu with some surprise and said, "It turns out that you also know so much about cultivation, in fact, I have always been curious, you seem to have extraordinary skills, but you don't seem to have cultivated martial arts, are you also a member of the cultivators?"

He did have this suspicion, Ye Sangyu's physique was very bad, too weak, not at all like a person who had practiced martial arts, and she did not have the strength that a martial artist should have, but she did show strength that should not appear in her.

Ye Sangyu's mood seemed to be even more lonely, and he muttered, "If only I were a cultivator, at least it wouldn't be like now." ”

Li Mengzhou didn't speak, he seemed to be able to sense Ye Sangyu's longing for cultivators, just as he thought about cultivators.

But if Ye Sangyu was not a cultivator and had never practiced martial arts, then how could she have the ability to defeat more than a dozen beggars in an instant with her weak body, and even wander around the rivers and lakes without incident?

This is one thing that Li Mengzhou can't figure out.

He suddenly felt that Ye Sangyu was very mysterious, and she seemed to be hiding a lot of secrets.

Judging from her generosity and helping beggars, her family background should be very wealthy, how can a young lady like this wander the rivers and lakes alone?

Li Mengzhou suddenly had the idea of wanting to know Ye Sangyu urgently.

This idea came suddenly and made no sense.

Ye Sangyu's soft voice came again: "Actually, I miss home, but I don't want to go back." ”

Li Mengzhou wondered: "Why, did you run away from home? Or do you feel unhappy at home, or are you not treated well at home and are being bullied?"

Ye Sangyu shook his head and said, "No, I just want to come out for a walk, my family loves me very much, I ran out secretly, and when they find out, they will definitely send someone to find me." But I finally came out, and I really didn't want to go back, because there were still many things I wanted to do that I hadn't done, I hadn't eaten all the food in the world, and I hadn't found the snow goose. ”

Li Mengzhou thought for a while and said: "Family is always the most important, I don't know why you want to sneak out, but at least you shouldn't let your family worry." And now that you've run out of money, you can't go anywhere, you're so good-looking, and it's easy to encounter danger, how can you stay at home comfortably. ”

Ye Sangyu seemed a little stunned, and she looked at Li Mengzhou strangely.

Her attention is on the word 'good-looking', although she has been praised by countless people for being beautiful since she was a child, but most of them are elders, and this is the first time that a boy has praised her for being good-looking in person.

It's not because other boys don't think she's good-looking, but because she hasn't been exposed to other boys at all since she was a child, except for her brother.

Li Mengzhou, who was being watched by Ye Sangyu, was a little nervous, he subconsciously shifted his gaze and said, "What's wrong?"

Ye Sangyu didn't speak, just kept staring at Li Mengzhou.

This picture seems to be very beautiful, under the moon before the flowers, a couple of men and women sit on a tall building, staring at each other.

Inexplicably, Li Mengzhou had a feeling of palpitations.
