The content and intensity of daily training are extremely demanding, and it has always been life or death.

Later, when he returned from his studies, he was by the old master's side, and he was already qualified to train other people at a young age.After not staying for two years, he was sent into the army by Master Shen to practice and study.

"Little Hou Ye, I heard from my adoptive father that you are looking for me?"

In terms of temperament, Shen Ji is a very silent person, and also very serious.He is not only like a ruthless killer of hidden guards, but also like a steady soldier - if 19-year-old Shen Jieran stood in front of him, I am afraid that he would be a little scared, it is an instinctive fear of such a person .

Fortunately, Shen Jieran was also a person who had commanded the three armies on the battlefield, and he was no longer a young man who was not really a weaker champion.

Because I don't understand, I will be a little curious.

He was very curious why Shen Ji betrayed the Shen family.

Although there are not many intersections, Shen Ji is an orphan in my memory. There was a famine in his hometown. When he was five or six years old, he was picked up by Lord Shen who was sent by the late emperor to relieve the disaster.Later, he cultivated it carefully, and his status in the Shen family was no different from that of a legitimate son.

Logically speaking, he should become a person who is loyal to the old master.

Could it be that his obedience all these years is just pretending, but in fact he has long held grudges against the Shen family?

However, looking at his appearance and acting style, he doesn't look like that kind of person.

Besides, if it is said that there is some resentment in his heart, it cannot be justified.The Shen family treated him well, whether it was status or ability, he had obtained something that he could not obtain through any other means.

What's more, how could he have grown up so big if Old Master Shen Hou hadn't saved his life?

Or is he just being used by others without knowing what he has actually done?

But this person doesn't seem to be that mindless.

Although there were many questions in his mind, Shen Jieran couldn't ask anything.

After all, except for one result, his eyes are dark about other things.

If there was something later on that made him want to betray the Shen family, it's not impossible.

But that's a little more complicated.If this is the case, then perhaps the present Shen Ji is still the adoptive son of Lord Shen who wholeheartedly cares for the Shen family, so there is no clue.

Shen Jieran felt a little headache, only to realize that things were not as simple as he thought.

Especially at this time, he was just a playboy, with no one in his hands and no power, even if he wanted to find someone to monitor Shen Ji closely, he couldn't do it.

"Hey, Brother Ji, although you and I haven't seen each other for many days, there's no need to be so unfamiliar. You should call me Jieran."

Shen Ji was not polite to him, and asked directly without any expression: "Why did you call me here?"

It was only when he asked Shen Jieran that he remembered that it was nothing to call him here, but he just wanted to observe Shen Ji's words and deeds carefully, in order to get to know this person better.

But he couldn't tell this person like this, so he had to talk vaguely about his family's internal affairs first, and then ask Shen Ji what are the main things to do now.

Before coming here, Old Master Hou probably explained something in particular, Shen Ji asked and answered Shen Jieran's questions, without showing any hesitation or puzzlement.

Of course, according to Shen Jieran's observation, most of Shen Ji has a facial paralysis, and the others couldn't tell anything at this moment.

After a brief conversation, Shen Jieran probably understood that although this man had been in the army for a long time, for some reason that is still unknown, his father did not send Shen Ji to the Shen family's barracks. At present, Shen Ji is serving beside the old Hou Ye as an ordinary hidden guard.

Could it be that this person feels that he has not been reused and his talent has been annihilated?This is a very likely reason.Whoever has endured so much suffering since childhood, who has been on the verge of life and death for countless times, and who can only be a small dark guard hiding in the dark in the end, will probably feel unwilling.

People will be grateful to those who nurture and cultivate them.But when that person becomes a shackle that restricts oneself, it is hard to say whether this gratitude still exists.

Of course, this is just his unilateral assumption.

Instead of thinking like this, he might as well ask his father what he thinks of Shen Ji.

Shen Jieran had a good time during this time, and when he had nothing to do, he would read books and practice martial arts with Yuan Lingxiu.The weather suddenly became cold, and Shen Jieran became more and more lazy to go out after staying at home for a long time.

Ji Ze invited Shen Jieran and a few friends out for dinner this day.Shen Jieran originally wanted to take Yuan Lingxiu with him, but Yuan Lingxiu didn't want to go because he didn't want to keep mixing with Shen Jieran and his brothers.

"How could it be an admixture? You know Chang Jize, so don't worry about it." Shen Jieran said unwillingly.

Yuan Lingxiu lowered his head and hurriedly helped him tidy his clothes, saying: "There are already some bad rumors in Beijing, let's play it safe recently."

"Oh? What bad rumor?" Shen Jieran hugged him with a smirk.

"There is something to say. Oh, most of them are saying that you are afraid of guilt." Yuan Lingxiu joked with a chuckle.

In Dacheng, except for the eldest girls who have not left the court, they are not allowed to go out easily, married female relatives are all allowed to go to the streets, and there are no restrictions on male wives.But these days, Shen Jieran has to take him with him wherever he goes, and after a long time, he has attracted a lot of gossip.

Shen Jieran thought about it seriously, then nodded in agreement and said: "They are right."

Yuan Lingxiu was amused by him, and seeing that it was almost time, he pushed him outside.

26. Chapter 25 Impermanence

After Shen Jieran left, Yuan Lingxiu ordered Shen Cong to guard the courtyard door and not allow anyone to come in easily, then went back to the house and closed the door tightly.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed with his shoes off, he began to concentrate.

In terms of time, he has not met that crazy old man in this life, and the secret book of inner strength that he has practiced since he was a child is based on the memory of his previous life.

That inner strength secret book has a total of seven realms, and the further you go, the more mysterious it becomes.In the previous life, Yuan Lingxiu had no foundation and no one to guide him, and he started to practice too late. Fortunately, the most important thing he lacks is time, which can be used to study and study when he has nothing to do.But even so until the day of his death, he only practiced to the third floor.

In this life, he has been practicing since he was reborn, but it is a pity that he can barely reach the fifth level in 15 years.

It's also because he is too lazy at ordinary times, he doesn't put his heart into it and doesn't talk about it. After reaching the fifth floor, he feels that it is enough, so he doesn't practice anymore.

And it has been three years since his internal strength broke through the fifth floor.

But now it's different, he has something to protect again.

He has seen the mental method countless times in his previous life, and it has long been firmly remembered in his mind. Recently, he will practice according to the mental method when he has nothing to do, and he has faint signs of breaking through.The reason why Shen Jieran was sent away was because he was not sure that he could break through the sixth floor, but he just wanted to give it a try and did not want to make Shen Jieran nervous.

Unexpectedly, Shen Cong, who had just sat down and was about to enter the state, came in and said with a bitter face that Madam was looking for him.

Yuan Lingxiu got up helplessly and straightened his clothes.

Shen Jieran has been running to his mother's side for the past few days, and the two of them are tired of being together the rest of the time, so Mrs. Shen has never found him.Now it seems that Mrs. Shen really has all-hands and eyes in this Shen residence, as soon as Shen Jieran left, she came to find her.

Yuan Lingxiu put on his clothes, got up and went out.

Although Mrs. Shen treated him a little harshly in the past, Yuan Lingxiu did not have any prejudice against the mistress of the Shen family.

I still remember the surprise and regret in the old lady's eyes when he rescued her together with Shen Jieran in the previous life.

She even held his hand, telling him to have a good time with Shen Jieran in the future.

I have to say that Yuan Lingxiu was greatly touched at that moment.

Shen Jieran's courtyard is located on the west side of Shen's residence, and it is only through a large garden that he can reach the courtyard where Mrs. Shen is.

The large garden is not only thriving with flowers in summer, but also has many maple pine trees and some hardy shrubs, so the colors are not monotonous in late autumn.

Yuan Lingxiu was thinking about the past and walked slowly, but suddenly felt a strong wind coming from the opposite side, he didn't think much, subconsciously dodged to dodge, barely missed the person who was speeding across the way.

The man was about twenty years old, and his face was also very handsome. He was the third son of the Shen family, Shen Jiexi.

Shen Jiexi was also obviously taken aback, and it took him a long time to react, and he forced a smile and greeted Yuan Lingxiu: "Second sister-in-law."

Yuan Ling usually goes out directly even when she leaves the yard, and rarely stays in Shen's house, so she doesn't see Shen Jieran's brothers and sisters often.But he still knew Shen Jiexi after all, so he greeted him politely.

Shen Jiexi seemed to be in a hurry just now, but now he was not in a hurry to leave, but looked Yuan Lingxiu up and down.

Yuan Xin who went to see Mrs. Shen with Yuan Lingxiu couldn't get used to it. He was young and timid, but he learned a lot from Shen Cong during this time, and his master's status in Shen's residence was much higher than before. , he also gained courage.

Yuan Xin shouted loudly behind Yuan Lingxiu: "Third young master!"

Only then did Shen Jiexi come back to his senses.He seemed to have just realized that he had stared at his second sister-in-law for a long time just now, and now he felt very embarrassed, bid farewell to Yuan Lingxiu, and left in a hurry.

Yuan Lingxiu didn't pay much attention to it. In his impression, although Shen Jiexi came from a bad background, he was an upright gentleman.Remember
