Chapter 32: Guilt

In the house, Pan Xincheng walked in quickly with a small dark brown wooden box in both hands, and said to Shuang: "Ying'er is only afraid that she is frightened, she needs to calm her nerves first, let her relax, sleep well, and it will definitely be better tomorrow." ”

Yu Shuang wiped the tears from her face, stood up, and said to Pan Xincheng: "Uncle Pan, please save her." ”

Pan Xincheng smiled faintly, his face was full of bamboo, and he said quietly: "Don't worry, Ying'er will be fine, and I won't let her be fine." ”

With that, he placed the wooden box at the head of the bed, and then opened it, and inside there were all kinds of large and small bottles and jars, all of different colors, all in the shape of a gourd.

Pan Xincheng looked at these bottles and jars, groaned slightly, picked up a silver-white vial, poured out three pills from it, and took it for Yu Xueying, who was unconscious.

After a while, the nervous look on Yu Xueying's face slowly subsided, and she fell asleep peacefully and peacefully.

Yu Shuang stood behind Pan Xincheng, looking at her sister Yuye's face with an eager face, anxious in her heart, and her hands and feet seemed to be a little chaff. It seems that she can't see her sister wake up calmly, just like a hanging heart - there is nowhere to put it.

After Pan Xincheng took the medicine for her, he turned to Shuang and said, "Let's go out and let him sleep well." ”

Although Yu Shuang was a little reluctant, she also walked out of the door step by step.

Yu Shuang sat down in the hall, in the building of the "Lake Pavilion", the furnishings and displays are basically the same as the houses where Yu Shuang and Yu Xueying live, and the portraits of the two "Daozun" are hung on the front wall, and even the tables and chairs are of the same material, which is very simple.

Yu Shuang sat on the chair with a gloomy expression, her hands and feet were cold, and she looked at one place with a pair of teary eyes, as if she was still not relieved of what happened to her sister.

Pan Xincheng brought a wooden plate from the back of the portrait, on which were placed a teapot and two teacups. He put the teacup on the coffee table next to Shuang, poured him a cup of hot tea, and said, "Shuang'er don't worry too much, take a sip of hot tea first, I have something to tell you." ”

Yu Shuang suddenly came back to his senses, he looked sideways at Pan Xincheng, his expression was suffocated, he took the teacup with both hands and said, "Thank you, Uncle Pan, please speak." ”

Pan Xincheng sat down on the chair next to Yu Shuang, looked at Yu Shuang, and said slowly: "The South Courtyard of Pan Mansion is a forbidden place in the Mansion, and there is a wolf demon who has cultivated to the essence in it. It was more than ten years ago, there was a lot of monsters in Liuzhou City, and the people of the city disappeared repeatedly, and the city lord of Liuzhou City wrote to the city lord Nie for help. ”

"After the city lord Nie discussed with the stewards, Pan finally led people to subdue the demons. First, I don't know the depth of this monster's ways, and second, the letter says that this monster is unknown, so I don't dare to rush to bring people forward, for fear of harming the innocent. Later, I went with Xiaohan's mother, who was also a cultivator, and in this battle, she ...... sacrificed. ”

When Pan Xincheng said this, his voice became a little erratic and bleak, his face was a little more bitter, and a look of vicissitudes surged in his eyes.

When Yu Shuang heard this, a trace of shock flashed in her eyes, and she was stunned: "What?"

Pan Xincheng sighed slightly, and said slowly: "The two of us arrived on the outskirts of Liuzhou City, on a hill called Fenghuoling, according to the city's residents, this is a place where wolf demons haunt. ”

"Xiaohan's mother and I both noticed that there was a demonic aura, and the yin soul was condensed, and I don't know how many creatures died here. She was straight, and she frowned and shouted, but the wolf demon had already discovered our whereabouts, and suddenly pressed down from above. We both ducked away, on guard. ”

Yu Shuang suddenly interjected: "Could it be that this werewolf hurt Ying'er?"

Pan Xincheng nodded slightly, and said unhurriedly: "Ying'er was just frightened, fortunately she was not injured, fortunately I arrived in time." Otherwise, it would be really difficult for me to explain to the master. ”

Yu Shuang listened while picking up the teacup and taking a sip of hot tea, and suddenly felt that the dryness in his mouth was slightly relieved, he smiled lightly and bitterly, and said sadly: "If there is really an accident, don't say Uncle Pan, even if Shuang'er goes to Jiuquan, he has no face to face his father." ”

Pan Xincheng smiled, feeling quite guilty in his heart, he was also careless for a while, and he was very happy for these two brothers and sisters, but he was overjoyed, but he neglected such prohibitions.

He could hear the faint reproach in Yu Shuang's words, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Yu Shuang hesitated for a moment, suddenly lost her words, and there was a hint of apology on her face, and suddenly said: "Uncle Pan, Shuang'er didn't hint at anything, let alone blame Uncle Pan. It's just that Shuang'er was upset in her heart, and she lost her words for a while, so please forgive Uncle Pan. ”

Pan Xincheng waved his hand and said with a smile: "Whatever Shuang'er said, it is to blame, and it is reasonable, there is nothing wrong with it, it was originally my fault, and Ying'er suffered a great disaster for no reason." It's my sin......"

Yu Shuang's expression softened, and he smiled faintly: "Uncle Pan is serious, you treat our brother and sister like a mountain, this friendship, Shuang'er will repay Uncle Pan even if he is a grass ring in the future, how dare you blame it?"

Pan Xincheng heard that he had mixed feelings in his heart, and suddenly sighed a little on his face, and said slowly: "Shuang'er said so, but she still turned Pan away thousands of miles away. If you really want to think like this, have you ever thought, how can I feel at peace? I said that my life was given by my master, and now that the kindness is difficult to continue, isn't it a retribution for me to do this?"

Yu Shuang was dumbfounded for a while, looked at Pan Xincheng, and said after a while: "What Uncle Pan said is that 'I will repay my kindness' is what my father often taught me, Shuang'er never dared to forget, Uncle Pan did not allow me to return this kindness, but I will always remember this kindness." ”

Pan Xincheng's face was indifferent, his eyes suddenly looked away, and he suddenly changed the topic and said: "I just don't know why Ying'er suddenly ran to the South Courtyard? ”

Yu Shuang pondered for a while, and suddenly remembered that when he went to the South Courtyard earlier, he met Pan Xiaohan and two people of the same age as her on the road, who were running from that place out of breath, he was anxious at the time, and only asked lightly if he had seen his sister, Pan Xiaohan had a strange face, and only pointed to the guide.

The three of them turned around and ran, even looking a little embarrassed. He was about to ask why the three of them were in such a hurry, but all three had already run away.

He was flustered at the time, and he didn't have time to look around, so he looked for it all the way along the road, and when he was about to end the runway, he saw Pan Xincheng walking out of a barren courtyard with his sister in his arms.

Pan Xincheng asked, and Yu Shuang suddenly understood what the whole thing had happened.

Pan Xincheng looked at Yu Shuang as if she was thinking about something, and asked directly, "Shuang'er, do you know?"

Yu Shuang suddenly came back to her senses, glanced at Pan Xincheng, and had the heart to say what she thought, but she was afraid that the truth would hurt the relationship between their father and daughter, thus deepening Pan Xiaohan's hatred for the two of them. Now that the matter has happened, why not show generosity and calm things down? Maybe Pan Xiaohan knows that he has a loss in his heart, and since then, his attitude towards Ying'er has improved, isn't it the situation he wants to see?

As soon as he thought of this, he looked at Pan Xincheng and said lightly: "I think it may be that Ying'er is playful, but he didn't know that the South Courtyard was a forbidden place, so he ran to the South Courtyard to play alone, and this happened." ”

"Alone?" Pan Xincheng asked rhetorically, his face suddenly turned cold, he looked away, and said angrily: "Ying'er doesn't know, it's my negligence." Even if Ying'er wanted to go, they should be dissuaded, but they would have ignored the ban so much, and if they caused trouble, who would have been able to afford it? Tomorrow, I will severely punish the three of them as a warning. ”

Yu Shuang didn't want the conflict to increase after all, and said quietly: "Uncle Pan, please calm your anger, I have just met the three of them, and they all have remorse on their faces. I also asked Uncle Pan to look at the thin faces of Shuang'er and Ying'er and forgive their sins. ”

Pan Xincheng pondered for a while, and finally his face leaked a trace of tiredness, waved his hand, looked at Yu Shuang, and said lightly: "I will look at the face of you and Ying'er, and I will not pursue this matter, if you commit it again, the two crimes will be punished together." At that time, Frost was no longer allowed to intercede for her. ”

Yu Shuang smiled slightly, nodded, suddenly thought of something, and asked directly: "Since Uncle Pan has recovered the wolf demon, why did he keep it in captivity in the mansion?"

Pan Xincheng seemed to have expected Yu Shuang to ask this question, a trace of helplessness flashed on his face, and he said with a wry smile: "Shuang'er doesn't know, that wolf demon has already become a spirit after hundreds of years of cultivation, and countless resentful spirits have gathered in his abdomen, and he is already immortal. If I can get rid of them, why should I go to such lengths to imprison them in the palace?"

"I see" Yu Shuang understood, nodded slowly, and said: "This is not a way after all, after all, there are many people in the house, and it is always inconvenient." ”

Pan Xincheng sighed slowly and said, "I also know this." But there is no good way at the moment, I use the Heavenly Silkworm Treasure Mirror to suppress it, use the Nine Shadows Mysterious Thunder to reduce its Taoism, and in a few decades, when it fades into an immortal body, I will get rid of it again, so as to prevent future troubles. ”

Yu Shuang nodded, and a sleepy look suddenly appeared on her face.

Pan Xincheng glanced out the window and said slowly: "If it's late today, Ying'er will sleep here today, you can rest early, and discuss everything tomorrow." ”

Hearing this, Yu Shuang stood up and arched her hand towards Pan Xincheng: "I'm really tired of Uncle Pan today, so Shuang'er will go back to sleep." ”

Pan Xincheng waved his hand slowly and said with a smile: "Don't get in the way, go and rest." ”

Yu Shuang turned around and walked out of the door, walked to the door, suddenly stopped, turned around again, bowed down and bowed deeply to Pan Xincheng, with a lot of gratitude on his face.

Pan Xincheng stood up slowly and smiled slightly: "No need to be polite, go to sleep." ”

Yu Shuang slowly turned around and slowly walked out of the door.

In the room, Pan Xincheng often breathed a sigh of relief, he turned around and walked to the portrait of the hanging beam, took out three sandalwood sticks from the offering table, lit them on the candle flame, held incense in both hands, bent down and bowed to the portrait of the dome three times, and then his eyes welled up with vicissitudes and exhaustion, staring at the portrait for a long time, before inserting the sandalwood in his hand into the incense burner.

He raised his steps and walked towards the room, where there were only three sticks of sandalwood left, still slowly emitting white smoke.
