The next day at noon.

The sky is gradually overcast again, yesterday was still a clear sky, the scorching sun was on the head, today it seems that the wind and snow of the previous days are just a precursor, and at this moment it is a cold wind, and the face hurts.

On the white jade road in front of the house where Yu Shuang and Yu Xueying lived, Yu Xueying was in tears, like pear blossoms with rain, looking at Yu Shuang with the corners of her mouth, pulling Yu Shuang's sleeves with both hands, as if she was coquettish.

Yu Shuang's face was also embarrassed, and he looked at his sister and was silent.

Pan Xincheng was comforting himself, squatted down and said to Xueying: "Ying'er, Shuang'er and I just went out of the city to do some things, and we will come back in a few days, Ying'er doesn't have to worry." ”

Yu Xueying's eyes were red and swollen, and she seemed to have been crying for a long time, and she bent the corners of her mouth, looking very wronged. Although Pan Xincheng persuaded for a long time, she was reluctant to let go of the little hand that was holding Yu Shuang's sleeve.

Yu Shuang couldn't bear it when he looked at it, he held his sister's little hand, and said softly: "Ying'er, my brother is going out to do business this time, and I can't take you with me." I'll be back in ten days at most, don't think about it, where you are, I'll be there. There is only a sister who does not have a brother in the world, and there is no brother who does not have a sister. Be obedient, don't cry, it's so cold, your face will get frostbite if you cry. As he spoke, he helped Yu Xueying wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Yu Xue Yingwu sobbed to herself, hesitated for a moment, looked at Yu Shuang with teary eyes, and said suddenly: "Ying'er listens to her brother, don't cry, but you can't lie to Ying'er, you must come back safely, Ying'er has never been separated from her brother since she was a child, and she will not be used to it." ”

Pan Xincheng smiled faintly, squatted in front of Xue Ying and patted her shoulder, and said with a smile: "Shuang'er is right, I will return in less than ten days, Uncle Pan assures you that Shuang'er will come back safe and sound, if he loses a hair, Uncle Pan will dispose of it with you, how about it?"

Yu Xueying pouted and looked at Pan Xincheng, and said with a bitter face: "If my brother really loses a hair, what's the use of me dealing with Uncle Pan?

Yu Shuang glared at Yu Xueying when she heard this, stroked Yu Xueying's face, and said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, Uncle Pan can give my brother this opportunity to practice, it is very precious to my brother, we don't know what the outside world is like, how about waiting for my brother to come back and tell you about it?"

Yu Xueying suddenly burst into tears, looked at Yu Shuang with big watery eyes full of expectation, and said, "Really?"

Yu Shuang smiled slightly, and said categorically: "Of course it's true, when did my brother lie to you? You are the pearl of your brother's palm, if you have the opportunity in the future, your brother will take you out to wander around, the world in books is very empty, Uncle Pan said, there are mountains outside, there is the sea, and there is a paradise, it is very beautiful!"

Pan Xincheng straightened up, touched Yu Xueying's head, and said resolutely: "Pan promised Ying'er that when I come back this time, I will definitely take you to see the mountains, the sea and the paradise, and there will be many opportunities in the future, I will take you wherever you want to go." ”

Yu Shuang was overjoyed when she heard this, and said to Xue Ying: "Ying'er, did you hear that?" Uncle Pan has always been true to his word, and when we come back, we will let him take us there, okay?"

Yu Xueying nodded overjoyed, suddenly stretched out her little thumb to Pan Xincheng, glanced at the corner of her mouth, and said coquettishly: "Uncle Pan, let's tick the hook, and if we tick the hook, we are not allowed to repay the debt!"

Pan Xincheng looked up and laughed, and only said after a while: "Okay, tick the hook." Saying that, he stretched out his hand and hooked Yu Xueying's little thumb together, and said in unison with Yu Xueying: "Pull the hook and hang yourself, for a hundred years, you are not allowed to change." After saying that, the three of them laughed at the same time.

Yu Shuang looked at her sister, her eyes were full of love, and she said softly: "Ying'er, during this time when my brother is away, you must take care of yourself, wear more clothes when it's cold, don't get cold, remember?"

Yu Xueying smiled and said: "Ying'er remembers, my brother is the same, you must take good care of yourself after you leave, and you must not get sick!"

Yu Shuang smiled when she heard this, stretched out her hand and scraped the bridge of her sister's nose, and said, "In the future, you must listen to Master Zhang and study hard." If you want to get along with Sister Xiaohan, you are young, you have to be more polite, and you can't regenerate incidents, you know?"

Yu Xueying nodded emphatically and said, "Ying'er listens to her brother, brother, you must come back safe and sound, the rock sugar gourd you promised to buy for Ying'er yesterday must be made up after you come back." ”

Yu Shuang smiled bitterly, glanced at Yu Xueying, and said, "Glutton, you know how to eat." ”

Pan Xincheng looked up at the sky, hesitated for a moment, and said to Shuang: "Shuang'er, it's time for us to go, now all the things in Pan's Mansion have been explained, let's leave as soon as possible, and return as soon as possible." ”

Yu Shuang nodded when he heard this, but his eyes were full of his sister's shadow, and he couldn't bear it, he said to Xue Ying with a bitter face: "Ying'er, my brother and Uncle Pan are leaving, these days, you take good care of yourself." ”

Yu Xueying's originally smiling face sank involuntarily when she heard this, she looked at Yu Shuang deeply, tears began to roll in her eyes again, her heart felt empty, and she was about to cry again.

Yu Shuang's heart is not the same as her, but after all, she endured it and said: "Don't cry, it's not life and death, Uncle Pan said, I'll be back in ten days at most." My brother is leaving, remember what my brother said to you. ”

Yu Xueying nodded slowly with tears in her eyes.

Yu Shuang's eyes were unbearable, and the moment he turned around, his eyes were hot, and some tears welled up, but he couldn't bear it and didn't let the tears fall.

A familiar back is reflected in Xue Ying's bright eyes, and the farther she goes, it seems to be a little lonely.

Yu Xueying stared blankly at the back, she sobbed lowly, tears slid down the corners of her mouth, and she had the idea of rushing up to hug him, but this thought quickly sank in her mind.

Pan Xincheng saw it in his eyes, and he felt quite unbearable in his heart, and faintly felt that it seemed a little cruel to do so, but after thinking about it again, after he left Yulin City, he was afraid that the biggest hidden danger was the military Hou Qingyu, although he begged him many times not to publicize the "Qilinzi", but Hou Qingyu is an upright person, and the matter is big, whether it can be trusted or not is really hard to say, after all, it is better to be cautious.

He sighed slowly, touched Yu Xueying's head, and said softly: "Ying'er go back, it's windy here, beware of catching a cold, everything has me, Shuang'er will be fine." ”

Yu Xueying looked at Pan Xincheng with teary eyes, and said astringently: "Uncle Pan, you must protect my brother, he is Ying'er's life, Ying'er can't live without him." ”

Pan Xincheng hesitated when he heard this, squatted down, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes for Yu Xueying, and said softly: "Don't worry, Ying'er, he is both your life and Uncle Pan's, so Uncle Pan won't let him have anything to do." ”

Yu Xueying nodded, rubbed the corners of her eyes with her little hands, and then turned her head to look, but her brother's figure had disappeared around the corner of the bamboo forest.

Pan Xincheng picked her up, got up and walked to the house.

Yu Shuang and Pan Xincheng traveled all the way east since they left Yulin City, Pan Xincheng could have walked with a sword, but Yu Shuang insisted on walking, the purpose was to see the outside world.

To the east of Yulin City is the plain area, in which the barren grass is overgrown, it looks boundless, and the twilight clouds are covered, and the snow accumulated some time ago has not yet melted away, and as far as the eye can see, it is still a white expanse.

They had traveled more than 30 miles to the east at this moment, and the night was gradually darkening, and Yu Shuang's feet were stepping on the thick snow, and the wind was blowing head-on with the sound of "whimpering", which was bitterly chilling. It roared over the wasteland, like a wolf howling and a ghost.

When Yu Shuang went out, he added an extra beige cotton coat, draped behind him, which looked quite heavy, but he still felt that the cold wind was cold, and it seemed to be pervasive, blowing him shivering.

After all, Pan Xincheng is profound, he is still wearing a silver-white robe that he usually wears on weekdays, and his face looks ruddy, and he does not have a bitter face because of this biting cold.

Pan Xincheng seemed to notice that Yu Shuang was a little strange, and frowned: "Shuang'er, what's wrong with you?"

Yu Shuang shrunk his neck, smiled bitterly, and said, "I didn't expect that the wind outside the plug was actually a biting cold. As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Pan Xincheng, only to see Pan Xincheng's face as usual and his form calm, and he couldn't help but wonder: "Uncle Pan, aren't you afraid of the cold?"

Pan Xincheng laughed, walked beside Shuang with his hands, and said lightly: "My cultivation has broken through the Six Realms, and I have long been not afraid of the cold, although I have already prepared an extra cotton coat for you, but I never thought that the temperature in the city has plummeted, and in the final analysis, it can be regarded as my negligence." ”

Yu Shuang smiled faintly, waved her hand, and her voice trembled slightly: "It's not in the way, I haven't been sick since I was a child, and I'm born afraid of cold, but I'm not afraid of heat, or even fire, I don't know why." ”

Pan Xincheng was secretly taken aback when he heard this, he frowned and looked at Yu Shuang, but saw Yu Shuang's face smiling, he didn't seem to care, he looked ahead and walked forward.

Recalling what the military Hou Qingyu said to him that night, it seems that this is the instinctive reaction of the "unicorn", according to what Hou Qingyu said, Yu Shuang was born of a "fire egg", and then thinking of what Yu Shuang just said, it is really a little incredible.

Although he groaned a little in his heart, the expression on his face did not change, and he said slowly: "Shuang'er's ability is much stronger than ordinary cultivators, Pan is a big person in the city, and the world was chaotic a few years ago, Pan was repeatedly exhausted, and there were times when he fell ill. You're in good health, but it's a pity that you're not fit to practice the Dao. ”

Yu Shuang pulled the cotton cloak behind her and wrapped it on her head, and when she got on, she felt a lot warmer, and said with a smile: "Uncle Pan, you see, it's much better now." ”

Pan Xincheng turned his head to look, but saw that he had covered his head tightly, and only a pair of eyes showed through, which looked quite funny.

Pan Xincheng watched for a long time, and said as he walked: "It's really hard for you on the way, I remember that there is an inn not far ahead, we have to hurry up, and it is best to settle down before late at night, otherwise it will be colder at night." ”

Yu Shuang nodded, walked beside Pan Xincheng, and said with a smile: "It's not bitter, it's good to have experience, otherwise you will always live in a comfortable environment, and you will always be unable to withstand the wind and waves." ”

Pan Xincheng looked at him, there was a lot of appreciation in his eyes, and he didn't continue to talk for a while, but quickened his pace and continued to walk forward.
