Chasing brother for thousands of miles

-----

"Because he can't find out." Qingtong did not show the slightest waver under Ning Xiumao's aggressive attitude and vaguely provocative hints, but when he heard these almost sinister words, he grinned at him. grinned.

Naturally, this ridicule would not be aimed at Qixian, so Ning Xiumao knew that there must be one or even several huge loopholes in his temptation just now, not only failed to hit the point, but was caught by someone.

But it didn't prove that he was unfavorable, at least it made him understand that Qixian didn't intervene in the case of Liu's family, there must be more complicated reasons...or simpler reasons.

He'll know right away.

Qingtong stared at Ning Xiumao fixedly, his voice was hoarse, not at all what he should have at his age, and it made people feel uncomfortable listening to it, he said slowly and firmly, word by word, with an unfamiliar rhythm : "When the young master rescued me, I suffered from aphasia because of the stimulation I received, and I couldn't speak anymore."

A look of surprise flashed across Ning Xiumao's face.

The only survivor of the Liu family back then, no one knew what he had seen.

From the day he narrowly escaped death, he could no longer speak, and he was unwilling to communicate with anyone. He just hid in a dark corner where the sun could not reach him all day long, with his arms around his knees, his eyes glazed over, and he remained motionless. Like a puppet.

Even though there are countless ways of communication between people besides words, for the child at that time, he had already abandoned the behavior of "communication" outside himself, and drew a circle for himself. , Hiding alone in the circle.

If it weren't for the occasional roll of his eyes, he would even be as quiet as dead.

Qixian once said that they are all people walking on the boundary between life and death, one foot is still in the world, the other foot has entered the underworld, neither living nor dead, neither human nor ghost.

It's just that with Wen Nianyuan, Qixian can come out of that endless hell, walk in the sunshine again, and live towards death.

And he will stay in the shadows forever, where it is cold but also safe.

"I'm not the son, how many people are there in the world who are as smart and tough as the son?" Qingtong continued to talk to Ning Xiumao very slowly and jerky.

Even now, speaking is still a burden for him. The vocal cords, which have not spoken for many years, are no longer used to normal speech.

"Young master, he can still be calm after encountering all kinds of inhuman injustices, but I am going crazy." Qingtong blinked, talking too much probably made him uncomfortable, he couldn't help coughing a few times, but Still stubbornly going on.

"If you hadn't been taking me with you and trying to heal me, I would have died in a dark corner, let alone slowly learn to speak again. Ning, I can't stop you from treating me with great malice. Speculate on Young Master, but drag me to deal with Young Master, don’t even think about it—well, what are you doing!”

A cup of tea was brought to his lips, and the water in the cup swayed slightly, splashing his lips, Qingtong frowned and cursed, but couldn't help but want to drink, his throat hurts, and he really wanted to swallow the cup of water on his lips Throat to extinguish the burning sensation.

But Ning Xiumao, who was handing over the cup, made him intuitively vigilant.

"Tsk tsk, kid, I just said a few words, why are you talking so much like a cat with its hair blown out?"

Ning Xiumao shook his head and sighed with a smile, "You also said that you don't want to talk, I think you are just a chatterbox. Which eye of yours saw that I was going to deal with your son, and I was full? - Drink up, throat Still not smoking?"

Qingtong's eyes widened because of his ridicule, what kind of pussy cat!What chatter!This old man... He snatched the glass of water, drank it in one gulp, and breathed a sigh of relief almost imperceptibly.

Ning Xiumao laughed, and suddenly stretched out his hand to pat his head, "There is enough of one freak like your son in the world. Humans are timid in the face of vicious people. You and I are all mortals, so don't blame yourself."

Qingtong glanced at him silently, bit her lip, and suddenly said in a low voice: "Don't touch."

"What?" Ning Xiumao felt that Qingtong's hair was limp, which was quite amusing.

Slapping off the mischievous hand, Qingtong said angrily: "Don't touch it! Others say that if someone touches your head, you won't grow taller!"

"..." Ning Xiumao touched his nose, "It's fun to be small—well, I mean, you're not short anymore."

The young man stared at the two empty bowls of noodles on the table, suddenly a little dazed, they were obviously talking about the past of the Liu family, weren't they?Since when did the topic get shifted to such a strange place?

Startled, Qingtong rebuilt the solid line of defense in his heart.

The man in front of him was unfathomable, he seemed to be doing meaningless things and saying meaningless things all the time, but he could open people's heart unconsciously, he was really a terrifying man.

Maybe... even though he thinks that Mr. Qixian is invincible, he still feels that this person is definitely a dangerous opponent if he becomes their enemy.

"What do you want to do with us?" He said that he didn't want to deal with Mr. Qixian, so why did he say such provocative words, why did he bring up the past of the Liu family, and why did he appear in front of them .

Ning Xiumao withdrew his hand, shook his head and sighed, "Xiao Qingtong, I have already told you what I want to do." He knocked on the table with a smile, "I told you in the city, I am here to bring You go, um, would you like to come with me?"

"Why, Brother Ning, this is taking advantage of my absence to lure Qin Tong, who is under me again? Backing someone's back to seduce, this behavior, I'm afraid that looking at the whole Jianghu, it's a dishonorable act, right?"

Suddenly an elegant voice came, Qixian turned around the corner of the ladder, held on to the railing, and walked down the stairs slowly, followed by Wen Nianyuan with a firm expression.

Seeing Qixian, Qingtong's complexion changed slightly, "Master..." before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Qixian.

"The voice is rusty, why is it serious again?" He turned cold, turned to Ning Xiumao, and said lightly: "Brother Ning, even if he is half-deaf, he should be able to tell that my Qin boy has a bad voice, so why did he say this?" How many words?"

Ning Xiumao was also apologetic, not pretending, he was really embarrassed, he made all kinds of assumptions at the beginning, but he didn't expect this to be the case, let alone a tentative remark that would make Qingtong so excited.

It seems that a cup of tea is not enough.

He bowed his hands to Qi Xianyi generously, "I didn't think carefully." Then he bowed to Qingtong, "Those who don't know are also guilty. Is there any ready-made medicine? If there is a prescription, I will go and get it. "

Qingtong didn't come and dodged that bow, adding to the annoyance, everyone said that if he received a gift from an older person, he would not grow tall, he pursed his lips, didn't speak any more, just shook his head, disappeared.

Ning Xiumao stretched out his hand and said "Hello", but he didn't catch anyone, and with annoyed expression on his face, he said to Qi Xian, "Is this the end of your love story?"

"Love talk?" Qixian raised her eyebrows, and Wen Nianyuan's expression darkened.

Wen Nianyuan never felt that there was anything shameful about their relationship, and he never felt that their relationship should be spread all over the world. He naturally didn't care, and he didn't want to hear half a word about Qi Xian from anyone.

Ning Xiumao came uninvited and walked with Qixian, which already made him unhappy, but he also ate the noodles he made for Qixian and teased Qingtong.

Although from the perspective of a rival in love, Wen Nianyuan would not like Qingtong, but he is an upright man, and will never be so cautious as to hope that something will happen to Qingtong.

What's more, he also felt that during the years when he never left home and Qixian was wandering alone in the rivers and lakes, at least Qingtong stayed by the side of the man he cared about the most, and didn't make him really lonely to the point of being alone. , alone.

If Ning Xiumao has bad intentions——

"Why, don't you deny that you are lovers? I'm not blind with that face." Ning Xiumao waved his hand and said without hesitation, "It's not a bad thing, you two still love each other. It's a good match, I'm not a gossip."

Qixian looked at him with a smile that was not a smile, "Brother Chengning is auspicious."

Obviously, he didn't believe Ning Xiumao's words that he was not a gossip. He was not a gossip. He could spread rumors as long as he wanted.

Of course, he didn't care at all, he was just afraid that his silly brother would be sad.

Sure enough, falling in love is an extremely contradictory thing, which makes people both weak and dependent on each other.

Just like Wen Nianyuan knew that he didn't care about his reputation, and he didn't want people to gossip about him, he also knew that Wen Nianyuan didn't care about those people's gossip, but he just didn't want to hear bad things about his idiot brother, he didn't like it.

If he gets upset, he may turn this world upside down, even though it itself has never been a peaceful and happy paradise.

When the undercurrent was surging among the few people, Wen Nianyuan suddenly looked at Ning Xiumao with deep eyes, and said surprisingly, "What is your relationship with the Liu family back then, or what is your relationship with the murderer?"

A strange look flashed across Ning Xiumao's face, "Why did you say that?"

Wen Nianyuan looked calm, "You are very concerned about this old case."

"Uh, Brother Wen said this, you look at the martial arts world, who doesn't pay attention to the affairs of the Liu family, it's nothing more than curiosity."

"Curiosity enough to ask Qingtong to go with you? You care about him very much." Wen Nianyuan was not affected by Ning Xiumao's interruption at all, and went further.

Qi Xian smiled and glanced at Wen Nianyuan, with a look of approval, after all, after following him for so long, he finally started to have some brains, so it was not a waste of time to teach him.

It would be a pity to waste such a good opportunity, why not give it a go.

Taking a seat, Qixian didn't give Ning Xiumao a chance to speak, "Brother Ning claims to have spent half his life in the rivers and lakes, but from my perspective, Brother Ning is a member of the court, right? From this point of view, the case of the Liu family back then had nothing to do with Is it related to the court? Or rather, it is related to you."

He smiled like a spring breeze, but his words were as sharp as a knife.
