Chapter 4: Situ's Family (II)

I thought that Brother Ah could see more clearly than those old stubborns, but I didn't expect Brother Ah to think the same way. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”

Situ Bai snorted again in the cold, turned his head to look at the lotus leaves bathed in the scorching afternoon sun, and finally left his eyes on the brilliant lotus flower.

After a while, Situ Bai seemed to have vomited out all the depression in his heart, and his voice was extremely calm: "With the strength that Sikong Gu showed in Yangzhou, it seems to be a stinky move to sneak attack at night, but this is Jiangning, not Yangzhou, he has just entered the city, and his foundation is unstable, so now he doesn't give him a thunderous blow, but chooses to wait for an illusory opportunity to come before fighting a duel to the death with him, will we definitely have a chance of winning?"

Situ Bai sighed softly, put his arm on the trunk, and looked at the group of free swimming fish under the lotus leaf competing with each other, the big fish eating the small fish, the small fish eating the algae, after the small fish slowly grows into a big fish, can the algae still satisfy it? When the time comes, can the big fish still swallow it in one bite? If the big fish waits for the small fish to eat the algae for a while, then the big fish will be able to swallow it when it grows up? At that time, the originally small fish will become an opponent who competes with the big fish......

If the big fish chases the small fish, although the small fish is clever and clever, they can only hide in Tibet, where will they have the opportunity to eat algae? Even if that Sikong Gu is on guard, even if the sneak attack fails, then at least it will have a blow to its forces, right? Those speculators must have hesitated a little, right? Now that the people have entered Jiangning on a high-headed horse, they have swaggered and chosen a small inn that has nothing to do with the two of them, but the Situ family is afraid of a fledgling yellow-haired boy and will not move?

"What about the 'Big Ten'? Can he still block the Smoke Arrow? Even if he can escape for a while, as long as he has not yet established a foothold in Jiangning, we will always have a chance, not ......"

When he turned his head, he saw a piano lying on the stone table, and the frosty brother was long gone.

Situ Bai clenched his fists, raised his head and looked at the green mountain to the east, and after a while, he released his fist again, sighed softly, shook his head and left the small pavilion. The back is straight, the head is high, and it is very vibrant.

On that green mountain, there are buried ancestors of the Situ family, a bluestone path leads directly to the place where the ancestors are worshiped during the New Year's festival, and in the middle of this path to the west, there is a yellow mud path. The climate in the south of the Yangtze River is humid, and the vegetation in the mountains and forests is flourishing and humid, so this yellow mud path is like a swamp, and ordinary people will sink into it with one foot as soon as they step on it. At the end of this yellow mud path is the tomb of the servants of the Situ family, all the servants who are loyal to the Situ family can be buried here, but since the first head of the Situ family, Situ Pei, bought this mountain forest, it has been about a hundred years now, and there are less than half a hundred servants buried on this mountain.

Unlike the surname Situ, most of these servants' mounds are overgrown with weeds, and the inscriptions are mostly blurred. Among them, there are several servants of the Situ family, who have done their best for the Situ family during their lifetimes and made a lot of meritorious contributions, so they were allowed by the successor head of the family to be buried with the master on this green mountain. But their graves have long been covered by barren trees and weeds, and the stone tablets engraved with the identity of the tomb owner have long been buried by the dead branches and loess.

But who would deliberately remember their names? Those heroes and heroes who had heads and faces, families and rooms, naturally would not be buried here. All the barren mounds here are just a dog at the feet of the nobleman who can eat incense at the end of the bluestone road.

The relatively new graves have been maintained within three generations, but not many slaves have been buried here for more than ten years, and the only new grave was erected ten years ago.

In front of the new tomb, Situ Song stood in front of the monument with his hands in his hands, his eyes slightly closed, and a little sadness between his eyebrows was particularly obvious in that extremely handsome face.

"Big ...... Big or small?"

A voice came like a yellow warbler's soft call, the sorrow between the eyebrows disappeared in an instant, Situ Song turned around, and saw a girl about twenty-eight years old, the girl had clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and her body was thin and small, as weak as the most common little yellow flower on the side of the road.

"I'll ...... Look at her. ”

Situ Song's pleasant voice came into the girl's ears, hooking two red clouds on the girl's cheeks, the girl looked around for a while, and finally lowered her head, the voice was weak: "Well......"

Seeing the girl's appearance, Situ Song smiled for a moment, but disappeared instantly when the girl raised her head, under the girl's gaze, Situ Song turned his head and glanced at the spotless tombstone again, and he didn't know who he whispered to: "I'm leaving." ”

After that, he walked in the direction where the girl came, and at the moment of rubbing shoulders with the girl, he turned his head and looked at the tombstone again, and took a deep breath. At the moment of turning his head, he heard a weak voice coming:

"Big ...... Da Shao, you can stay with my sister again, I'll ...... I...... I shouldn't have bothered you ......"

Although there was still a trace of blush on the girl's face at this time, the eyes that looked up to Situ Song were full of determination, and when Situ Song saw the glimmer of light in these two black pearls, there was a strange pain in his heart.

"No need, you can talk, this mountain road is not easy to walk, and it is not convenient to go down the mountain after a while. ”

Staring at these eyes, Situ Song's raised hand froze two inches above the girl's head, but finally slowly fell, in the girl's puzzled gaze, Situ Song shook his head and sighed: "You have grown taller again, in a few days, I am afraid you will be taller than your sister." ”

After that, Situ Song turned around and stepped into the yellow mud ground, he did not choose to use light skills to leave from the trees, as if to feel this feeling of falling step by step, he did not look back at the tombstone again.

The girl slowly walked to the stele, put down the bamboo basket in her hand, lifted the white cloth, and took out the incense burner, the incense pig, the flint, and an extremely delicate food box, in which were a few delicate dishes, in this shady mountain forest, there was still a faint steam.

The girl didn't say a word, just stared at the words on the tombstone that she had just recognized a few days ago, which was engraved by Situ Song himself, a "butterfly" character that had no masculinity and was as soft and weak as the owner of the tomb.

What are the words on the word "butterfly", but the girl can't recognize it, after all, it took her a lot of effort to keep the word "butterfly" in mind.

The girl stretched out her hand to touch the inscription, but the calloused little hands touched the cold stone tablet and immediately shrank back.

"That's ...... Wouldn't it offend my sister? Only a few people can touch this stone tablet......"

The girl was startled by the laughter behind her, and hurriedly turned her head, but she didn't see half a figure, her legs trembled, and she couldn't stand up, so she had to turn her head slowly.

"Hey, Little Seven......"

"Hell!"

The sound was really not terrible, but the girl's mind was already in turmoil, and she grabbed the empty basket next to her with her eyes closed and smashed it to her side, but it was empty. The girl bit her lip and opened her eyelids with all her strength, only to see a handsome man with a hippie smile staring at her with a playful smile on the corner of her mouth, and that nasty face was so familiar......

"It's you!"

Xiao Qi threw the bamboo basket in his hand, but in the eyes of the young man, this bamboo basket was too slow compared to those plum blossom darts, whether it was to dodge or pull out a long sword to split it. It's just that the young man also knows very well that if he doesn't smash this bamboo basket, the girl's anger will not subside in the slightest, and it will be herself who will suffer at that time......

With a "snap", the bamboo basket hit the young man's nose, the young man covered his nose and frowned and stared at Xiao Qi, and Xiao Qi had no anger on his face, only the smug feeling of successfully hitting the other party.

"Hey, hey, I'm your master, right?"

"Which master would scare people like this? You are still the second young master of Situ Mansion, you can't even hide from other people's 'secret weapons', and you still call yourself other people's 'master'?"

Xiao Qi crossed his hands on his hips, and he had long lost his panicked appearance. The "Second Young Master of Situ Mansion" who covered his nose and frowned and stared at Xiao Qi's aura was Situ Bai who went up the mountain to look for his brother after hesitating for a moment, but who knew that he didn't find Situ Song, but he saw a little evil star......

"If it weren't for Brother Tell Me to take care of you, you wouldn't have died a few times. Although he thought so in his mind, Situ Bai also knew very well that after getting along these days, this eccentric girl in front of him had already captured his heart, and if he wanted to beat and scold this playful and lovely Xiao Qi, Situ Bai himself would be reluctant to do so.

Situ Bai still wanted to have a good "theory" with Xiao Qi, but he remembered the uninvited guest who had settled in Jiangning, so he didn't care about any children's personal affairs, and the hand that pretended to have a pain on the bridge of his nose was slowly put down, and his face became serious.

"Where's Brother?"

Xiao Qi saw that his "useless master" suddenly looked serious, and he was no longer smiling at himself on weekdays, so he knew that he had something important to look for Situ Song, so he said: "Da Shao just went down the mountain before a stick of incense, didn't you meet him?"

When Situ Bai heard this, he frowned, stroked his chin, seemed to be talking to himself, and seemed to answer Xiao Qi: "It's strange, I should meet him." ”

"Da Shao Xing probably went to my sister's room. ”

"That's where I came from, my brother is not in the martial arts arena, not in the small pavilion, not in your sister's room, and not even in the mountain?"

The brows tightened more and more, as if they could squeeze the truth out.

Looking at Situ Bai's frowning and sad appearance, Xiao Qi felt a little uncomfortable in his heart for some reason, and said, "Maybe it's because the master is just staggered?"

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Qi saw Situ Bai raise his eyebrows and shouted:

"Yes, he must have thought so, too. ”

Seeing Situ Bai's smiling appearance, although Xiao Qi didn't understand what Situ Bai meant, his heart suddenly became happy, and he asked with a smile: "Hey, what do you mean? What do you think so?"

"Brother must have gone with me, the old stubborns don't dare to strike first, but we are also willing to be left behind! The group of wastes of the Chu family will definitely listen to the words of that fat pig——"

"What old stubbornness, what waste and what fat pig, master, can't your mouth be cleaner?"

Although he called "master" in his mouth, where did Xiao Qi look like Situ Bai as his master again?

Situ Bai didn't care, if Xiao Qi was as honest as other maidservants, quietly guarding the so-called "duty", then Situ Bai would definitely not be tempted by him, not to mention, now that Sikong was alone in the city, Jiangning Wulin was not at peace, and he was not in the mood to pay attention to Xiao Qi's attitude towards him.

"Xiao Qi, I'm going to find my brother. ”

After speaking, without waiting for Xiao Qi to respond, Situ Bai jumped up, performed light skills through the woods and grass, and went straight to the bottom of the mountain.

Xiao Qi looked at the direction in which Situ Bai had completely disappeared, blinked, and then turned his head to look at the burned incense ash in front of the tombstone, and his originally lively eyes suddenly dimmed again.
