It was almost autumn, and Shen Qingwen, who was wrapped in a few clothes, stopped in the peach blossom forest where the flowers had fallen all over the place, and the bare branches were dry, and the hand carrying the wine jug was raised, and the pink peach blossom wine poured into his mouth.

"You kid is secretly drinking again!" The old man who came back from outside scolded angrily when he saw Shen Qingwen, and he stared at him with a flat burden on his shoulder, and Shen Qingwen ignored it and continued to drink.

Skillfully took the old man's burden, and Shen Qingwen, who was carrying the burden on his shoulder, staggered back. Stepping on the fallen flowers a few months ago, his face was already flushed, and he greeted the passers-by along the way.

"Second Brother Li, I heard that your old dog gave birth to cubs, congratulations!"

"Aunt Zhang, your chicken is so tender...... Forehead...... No...... It's so beautiful!"

"Yo, flowers, I haven't seen them more beautiful in a few days. ”

......

......

Shen Qingwen, who had silver hair, walked on the mud pit path, with an indescribable comfort in his heart. When he was about to walk to the old man's house selling wine under the giant peach tree, he suddenly saw a woman in a black and white robe sitting on a chair looking at him with a smile, and to her left was a woman in white with a bored face swinging flower petals. Shen Qingwen, who was already drunk on his face, rubbed his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, the woman in front of him was gone, leaving only a faint residual fragrance.

Pushing open the door and putting down the flat burden, Shen Qingwen sat on the bench and waited for the old man who sold wine. In just a few months, in addition to the punishment of heaven, all the other toxins and injuries have receded, and it has reached the point that Shen Qingwen can control it himself, and Shen Qingwen estimates that the treatment is about to end.

His next step should be to go directly to Chu Tianguo to steal the elixir, and then go to the next destination. However, holding the two envelopes in his arms, Shen Qingwen sighed.

The old man who sold wine also came back, and when he saw Shen Qingwen and the two letters in his hand, he snorted coldly and warned: "You kid should pay attention, the reason why the old man answered to heal you is all on Minmin's face." You owe Minmin a life, do you know it! If you dare to do something sorry for that girl, the old man wants you to look good!"

Shen Qingwen smiled bitterly, put away the two envelopes, and thought to himself that he owed Zhao Minmin more than one life. But Gu Pingguo's eyes when he was leaving appeared in his mind, and Shen Qingwen suddenly felt that his head hurt. couldn't help but take another sip of wine, and Shen Qingwen, whose head hurt even more, sighed heavily.

In the sunset, Shen Qingwen sat alone under the afterglow of the remnant sun, his silver hair was red by the sunset. The old man who sold wine looked at the sky, wanted to cook, raised the lamp and candle on the wooden table, and the old man walked into the kitchen, and soon, smoke rose from the roof, and Shen Qingwen, who was sitting on the wooden chair, got up, pushed open the door, and walked outside.

Walking on the pothole path, he suddenly heard the sound of babbling singing in the distance, Shen Qingwen was curious, looking for the song, he soon found the source of the sound, it was a little boy sitting on the mud pond.

Shen Qingwen knew this boy, who was brought back from outside by the old man who sold wine, and heard that the old man said that his parents were from Chutian Kingdom, died on the battlefield, and were the descendants of heroes.

Unconsciously, Shen Qingwen had approached the boy, the boy seemed to be taken aback, first looked at him vigilantly, and after seeing that it was Shen Qingwen through the afterglow, he let down his vigilance and smiled, he knew this brother.

"Why don't you go back so late?" asked Shen Qingwen, sitting next to the boy.

The boy propped his face on his hands, his little feet in the mud pond and moved restlessly, and after a long time he whispered, "I don't want to go back." ”

The boy realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly raised his face, his immature and innocent face was a little flustered, and he said, "I'm not saying that they treat me badly, it's me...... It's my own problem......"

Shen Qingwen nodded, maybe it was a matter of life experience, Shen Qingwen's first impression of the little boy was very good, and he felt a sense of sympathy. They chatted happily, leaving time behind.

The sunset was cool, and Shen Qingwen returned to the residence of the old man who sold wine. Coincidentally, the old man just made a meal, the standard three dishes and one soup were paired with a little peach blossom wine, and the satisfied smile of the old man who sold wine couldn't hide. Shen Qingwen seemed very quiet tonight, he always had to quarrel with the old man on weekdays, every day for several months. It was so quiet today, and the old man was a little uncomfortable.

"Old man, I heard Sister Min Min say that you are the general of the Chu Heavenly Kingdom. Just when the old man hesitated to ask, Shen Qingwen took the lead in speaking. He stared blankly at the moon hanging in the sky, silver hair and silver glow, confusion and sadness combined.

The old man sighed in confusion.

Shen Qingwen had a shallow smile on his mouth, but his eyes turned red, and he said, "Chu Tianguo...... Yaochi takes care of the Seven Kingdoms more than the so-called Three Kingdoms in the Middle Kingdom......"

"Child......" The old man who sold wine sighed, his old face was full of guilt, and his gaze at Shen Qingwen couldn't help but soften a little, he asked, "Child, what do you want to say......"

Shen Qingwen suddenly laughed, drank a wine glass in his hand, and then threw it casually, fell to the ground with a crisp sound, and said with tears in his words: "Why can the descendants who died on the battlefield be called heroes, and they are loved by ten thousand people, but my Yaochi Shen Mansion has ended up being punished by the will of heaven and spurned by ten thousand people!"

Murderous aura and coldness poured out from Shen Qingwen's body like a tsunami, and everything around him seemed to be shivering. Looking at the extinguished candles on the wooden table, the old man who sold wine sighed again, and took advantage of the dark night to have a drink, he also laughed, and the wine glass was thrown to the ground, and the old man was comfortable.

Yes, Tianchi Shen Mansion is this ending, and he is also this ending, all the people who refused back then ended up with this ending, this world is really terrible!

He patted Shen Qingwen on the shoulder, and said while the moonlight was still bright: "Many years ago, before you were born, I drank with your father once. ”

Shen Qingwen was taken aback when he heard this, the old man nodded, and continued: "At that time, the current Lord of the Chu Heavenly Kingdom had just taken office, and the entire Chu Heavenly Kingdom was at the time when the dark tide was surging the most intensely, and it happened that it encountered a large-scale attack by foreign races, and the entire Seven Heavenly Kingdoms was in chaos. The most coincidental and luckiest thing is that I met your father at that time, the scholar like the Demon King of the Shen Mansion. ”

The old man took a sip of wine, looked at the moon, and continued: "He is so powerful that I have never seen it, he looks like a scholar on weekdays, with a gentle and modest smile on his face, he is wearing silver armor like a god of war on the nine stars. ”

"Did you know...... When your father and mother died, I was there! I was there! Your father and mother were heroes! I was a hero to everyone!"

As he spoke, the old man, who was about to sink into the ground, suddenly burst into tears, choking with tears.

......

......

In the middle of the night, the old man was so drunk that he fell asleep on the bed. Shen Qingwen lit a candle on his stomach alone, walked to the wall where his long sword was hung, and looked at the long sword quietly.

I remembered what the old man had just said and the look in his eyes full of relief.

"Lord Shen was drinking with me at that time, and said with a smile that you must be a boy. ”

"He said that you must be smart and sensible, and you will go into battle together to kill the enemy in the future. ”

He also said that you are the hope of the Shen Mansion, both now and in the future. ”

Shen Qingwen raised his head and sniffed, the seventeen-year-old boy was in a sensitive period. Reaching out and caressing the blade of the sword, his deep eyes becoming clearer and clearer, he remembered the last words of the boy at first.

"My parents died on the battlefield, and everyone said they were heroes, and I felt that they were selfish and left me alone...... Are you right, big brother......"

Shen Qingwen, who was touching the sword and holding the candle, chuckled, Daddy, you are indeed very selfish.

Don't worry, Qingwen will be fine, every year is like this, and the future of the Shen Mansion will be bright.
