Night. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The rain was pouring down, but the night was even quieter.

In front of me, there is a red-lit house. There were two red lanterns next to the black lacquered gate, and the red light looked a little trance in the rain. The lantern was also blown from side to side by the night wind, and it made a clattering sound from time to time.

On the lintel of the gate of the deep house, there is a horizontal plaque. Under the cover of the lantern, the two words on the plaque became clearer and clearer: Su Fu.

The house is deep and lonely.

In the huge mansion, only the back hall still shone a little, and the rest of the place fell into darkness.

In the back hall, there were only a few sticks of red wax burning, and the red wax seemed to have been lit for a long time, and the wax oil had accumulated a lot in the wax tray.

There were two people sitting in the back room.

Two men. Two handsome men.

It's just that neither of them seems to have noticed that there is someone around them, and they are doing their own thing.

The two men, one in blue and the other in white.

The blue-clad man leaned against a brazier, roasting the fire, and throwing a few old sticks of wood into the fire from time to time.

Reflecting the dancing flames, the handsome face that was as white as a piece of paper became more and more moving.

Su Zhi. The Great Protector of the Nine Heavens Emperor Jue Palace. It was the man who showed Lin Yizhi and them the way, and he was also the man who stood on the cliff some time ago.

And on the rattan chair more than a foot away from him, it was the man in white. He leaned back on the wicker chair, his eyes closed, and seemed to be sleeping soundly.

On the small table beside him, a cup of fragrant tea, occasionally wafting a trace of heat.

And this person is even more familiar, if Lin Yizhi is present, he will definitely call out his name - Guan is wide.

The two men went about themselves, neither of them speaking first.

In one room, there seem to be two unrelated worlds.

The handsome woman, Jinxue, had already come in and turned on the wax lamp in the room twice, and then gently retreated.

The two men were still in this position, not even lifting their eyelids, as if they hadn't noticed.

In this way, I could only hear the sound of rain dripping outside the hall, wetting the hall steps.

Finally, the white clothes were wide, slowly opened their eyes, got up and picked up the cup of tea, came to the eaves, looked at the silky drizzle, and said softly: "Tonight's rain is very similar to that night, don't you think?"

Then he lowered his head and gently pecked at the tea in his cup. and he spoke no more.

It seemed to be waiting for Su Zhi to say something.

It was only after a while, that Su Zhi threw all the excess old firewood in his hand into the brazier, and then said slowly: "The water in your cup is already cold, I asked Jinxue to help you change a cup." ”

The look of disappointment in Guan Dekuan's eyes swept by, and then he smiled faintly, and said very casually: "I'm a layman, this good tea and bad tea can't be tasted, no matter what, it's a mouthful, wouldn't it be bad to change it again?"

Su Zhi smiled, and with the shaking of his shoulders, there was another violent cough.

"Senior Brother Ning's mouth, but there is nothing delicious in the world that can escape, but what you say is a bit artificial. Su Zhi said while coughing.

Guan Dekuan laughed: "You still recognize me as your Senior Brother Ning?"

Su Zhi nodded slightly, his eyes were a little deep and trance-like, and he muttered: "The scene of that day is like a nightmare, I have to think about it every day." Senior Brother Ning was righteous at the time, but I still have to write down this kindness. ”

Guan Dekuan nodded, and there was a little more remembrance in his expression, and he sighed and said: "If it weren't for the stubbornness of the real person in charge, if it wasn't for Uncle Qingxuan's dumping, how could you ...... That's it, creation makes people, creation makes people...... Today, I will hear from you. ”

"What ......"

"Would You ......?"

"Reluctance to ......"

Guan Dekuan sighed again: "Your injury will not be like this, but you will ...... when you fall into the demons in your heart, you can't solve it for a long time, and you are tormented by the poison of the netherworld, and the two effects are intertwined, and you will ."

"Senior Brother Ning doesn't have to worry about it, I won't be able to die from my injuries for a while and a half......," Su Zhi intercepted.

Guan Dekuan shook his head: "If you call me Senior Brother, I will call you Senior Brother Chen again, why don't you want to let go of the old things for many years?" Senior Uncle Lu thinks about you going back, and everyone is ...... too."

"Chen Ruoshui is already dead, and there is only Su Zhi, the great protector of the Nine Heavens Emperor Jue Palace, here ......" Su Zhi raised his head suddenly, and his voice was much louder.

His chest heaved and his fists clenched.

Guan Kuan didn't care what he did, and his eyes were even more painful: "Dead?" Chen Ruoshui, did you deceive everyone and yourself with this sentence? Do you still remember what you and I said on Liwu Mountain back then? ”

"I don't remember!" Su Zhi's body trembled, and his voice trembled.

"Don't remember?" Guan Dekuan's expression was as if he had heard a joke, and he nodded vigorously: "Okay, if you don't remember, I'll say it again." ”

"On that day, we planted grass as incense, and in the face of the towering hall of sorrow, we swore that we would be born as a person and die as a ghost...... Have you forgotten?" said Kuan, staring at Su Zhidao.

"I ...... As I said, Chen Ruoshui is dead! Everything he said has nothing to do with Su Zhi today, and it has nothing to do with it!"

"Hula-" With a sound, Su Zhi pushed down the brazier in front of him, and the unburned old firewood mixed with charcoal ash in it suddenly spread.

Su Zhi's eyes were like stagnant water, looking at the charcoal ash floating in front of him and muttering: "I am like this charcoal ash now, and I am just a pile of waste without that fire......

"Why do you ......?"

There was dead silence in the room again.

"Ruijin, Limu, Gangyan, and Luculent are all right?"

Su Zhi suddenly spoke softly.

"Good ......"

"And ...... Shiodoo ...... There are also divisions...... Master respects them. "The word master and master, Su Zhi seemed to use all his strength, so he said it with difficulty.

Guan Dekuan closed his eyes lightly and said slowly: "It's all right...... You still can't help but ask? I don't understand, you can't let them go, why don't you go back? Senior Brother Ruoshui ......"

Perhaps, there is no need to hide it, this Su Zhi is the third disciple of Lu Wujian from the Sorrow Mountain-Chen Ruoshui.

Back then, Lu Wujian once accepted five people as apprentices, and named them after the five elements in the order of worshipping the master.

I don't know why, many years later, Lin Yizhi worshiped the door of Wangwu, gold, wood, water, fire and earth, but only water was missing.

Lin Yizhi also asked Zeng Ruijin, but Zeng Ruijin was hesitant and secretive.

So Lin Yizhi didn't ask again.

But now, in the sphere of influence of the Nine Heavens Emperor Jue Palace, Su Zhi, the great protector of the Nine Heavens Emperor Jue Palace, has another name - Chen Ruoshui.

And his identity is even closer to Lin Yizhi.

The teacher is out of the same door, and the three disciples of Wangwu Peak.

If Lin Yizhi was on the spot, I really don't know how he would feel.

"Go back ?......," Su Zhi smiled sadly. There was more bitterness in the smile.

"Back then, the master would rather cut off his position in the Liwu Sect for me, and dismissed almost all the disciples of Wangwu Peak, and even hid out, in the end, I still ended up in the field where I am now? Senior Brother Ning, now you keep asking me to go back, let me ask you, you also know that the rules of the Liwu Sect are like a mountain, how can you allow me to exist as an alien species? Is it the permission of the real person in charge of the sect, or the permission of the first senior uncle? Or the permission of the more than 10,000 disciples of the Liwu Sect? I go back, is it possible?"

"This ......"

Guan Kuan's words were speechless for a while, he knew that what Su Zhi said was true, if he really returned to the Sect of Sorrow, I was afraid that the first person who would not allow him would be the real person in charge.

Guan Dekuan sighed and said, "Senior Brother Chen, I can't help you because of my worries......"

Su Zhi's expression gradually returned to normal, he squatted down, held the brazier again, and then picked up the old firewood that had not been burned one by one and put it in the brazier.

"After a while, I was cold again. Su Zhi smiled bitterly.

As soon as the words fell, Jinxue walked out gently, gently knelt down beside him, and beat the fire fold, and in an instant, there was a warm ball in the brazier.

Then she glanced at Su Zhi, and then at Guan Kuan, who was still standing under the eaves.

Su Zhi smiled softly at her: "It's okay to ...... it"

Jinxue nodded and retreated into the darkness again.

"Now, in the Nine Heavens Emperor Jue Palace, it's also very ......good," Su Zhi said lightly.

"Hehe, if you can hide it from others, how can you hide it from me?" Guan Dekuan said with a smile.

Then he sat in front of Su Zhi, looking at him with a faint smile without saying a word.

"What does Senior Brother Ning mean?"

"Are you really at ease to be the great protector of this Nine Heavens Emperor Jue Palace?" said Guan Kuan.

Without waiting for Su Zhi to speak, Guan Lean said again: "Let's go, if you don't say it, I won't ask, but do you know that you have calculated everything, but you missed a person......

Su Zhi remained silent: "Who?"

"You remember the two people you met in the rain, and then you showed them the way, in fact, you wanted to use them as pawns to break the ban on the kite, right? "Guan Kuan said with confidence.

Su Zhi didn't deny it, and nodded slightly.

"Do you know who the young man is who asked you for the way?"

"I don't know. ”

Guan Dekuan nodded: "That young man, call Lin Yizhi." He is the little apprentice you have accepted by Master Lu Wujian of Wangwu Peak, the junior disciple you have never met......"

When the words fell, Su Zhi's face changed greatly, and he stood up with a bang.

Then he coughed violently.

Guan Dekuan said again: "I don't care what I plan, now that your junior brother is in danger, how do you end up......?"

Su Zhi was speechless for a long time, only pacing around the fire.

Finally, he regained his composure. He sat down slowly and said lightly: "What about this? I said that if the master is away from the worries for one day, I will protect the worries for one day." I'll keep that Lin Yi safe and sound, it's ......"

Guan Kuanyan didn't seem to be sure: "Really?"

"I ...... have been a child's play"

"Okay!" Guan Dekuan nodded, clapped his hands and stood up and said, "I'm bothering all night, so I'll leave here." You remember, as long as you don't break the sorrow, everything is up to you!"

After that, a streamer of light shot into the rainy night.

Su Zhi didn't get up, just sat by the brazier like that, motionless.

It was only when the red candle burned out that the charcoal in the brazier turned to cold ashes.

His thin figure slowly merged with the darkness that was gradually coming.

In the dark, he whispered, "Jinxue, you call that knife...... Come in!"
