In three hours, the blood dove flew to the border of Lizhou. At that time, red clouds burned most of the sky, and the streets and alleys were filled with smoke from cooking and the smell of food.

After seeing the familiar bustling scene of this familiar street again after years of separation, Shi Le really breathed a sigh of relief, and the tiredness on his body also faded a lot.

He turned over from the blood dove and had to carry the fainted Xiao Zhi on his back. He didn't know whether Shi Le's cultivation had improved or Xiao Zhi had lost weight. Shi Le obviously felt that carrying this person was effortless.

"I used to have a house in Lizhou, but some accidents happened and it was abandoned. Let's go and have a look. If it doesn't work, we can stay in an inn."

It's just that he didn't bring any silver with him, and Xiao Zhi's status is special, so it's not convenient to stay in an inn.

"Outside you are more familiar with me than I am, I will follow your arrangement."

The three of them turned into a familiar alleyway, and before they had a cup of tea, Lizhou's mansion appeared in front of them.

"This house is not bad, I am willing to live there for a long time." Xiao Songhan commented quite satisfied.

Shi Le was in a daze for a while. When they left, the house was obviously set on fire by the Guili tribe who assassinated Ye Zhixing, but now the house in front of him is the same as before, the eaves and lintels are intact, and the front door has been cleaned It is so clean that even the crooked koi paintings carved on the pillars for fun back then have not changed.

Xiao Songhan gently hooked his fingers, and the curse printed on the door flickered, and it lost its effect in an instant.

Shi Le frowned: "This house was destroyed by a will-o'-the-wisp two years ago, and now someone is taking care of it, and it has returned to its original appearance."

"Judging from the curse on the door, it must be my idle nephew, that's right, he's been here a lot."

While talking, the two of them entered the house, and the bricks, tiles, plants, and trees in the house hadn't changed much. The only thing that surprised Shi Le was that the place in the yard that he had left for Qiu Jue to grow herbs had now become a patch of grass. Looking closer at the pond, there was a sound of water in the pond, hundreds of koi wagging their tails, and following the figures to the shore, the red, gold, and white were very dazzling in the night.

Back then, he just casually told Xiao Zhi that he wanted to dig a pond in the yard, separated by a water pavilion. The east pond would raise some koi and plant some lotus flowers for viewing and entertainment, while the west pond would raise some carp and crucian carp, so he didn’t bother to buy vegetables. Just eat fish at home.

But after these years, Shi Le has long forgotten all the trivial things, and only Xiao Zhi remembers them in his heart.

"My nephew, thanks to you for taking care of me in those years."

Shi Le smiled without answering, and sent Xiao Zhi back to his previous room, but just as he was unloaded from his back and placed on the couch, when Shi Le took a step away, the guy moaned in a daze on the couch, as if in pain extreme.

Shi Le was puzzled, tentatively sat back on the side of the couch again, Xiao Zhi really stopped talking nonsense, and fell asleep peacefully.

Xiao Songhan looked at the two with great interest and asked, "Has he always been so clingy to you?"

Shi Le answered truthfully without paying much attention: "I can't say it's clingy, because I didn't like me very much before, and wanted to find my unhappiness everywhere."

Xiao Songhan clicked his tongue: "I really don't know who he looks like with his aggressive temper and annoying temper, but this face looks exactly like his mother."

Saying so, Xiao Songhan came to check his pulse, put his finger on the wrist vein and frowned more and more tightly: "What kind of life has this child lived? The energy in his body is like a pot of porridge, and all kinds of poisons have accumulated on his body. Fortunately, it is a good thing to collapse now, at least you can recuperate."

Hearing this, Shi Le was a little confused. In my impression, although Xiao Zhi was obsessed with cultivation and was a member of the palace of Tu Sha, he was never eager for success and was very willing to spend his mind and heart. It stands to reason that it shouldn't be so unbearable.

Xiao Songhan seemed to see Shi Le's doubts, and said in a low voice, "It's because he is too obsessed and has a demon in his heart."

"Heart demon?"

"If you don't take care of it, the child will be useless."

The air in the room was a bit dull for a while, Shi Le turned his head to look at Xiao Zhi who was lying on the couch, his white hair made that lonely and beautiful face even paler, his brows were tightly knit, as if he was sinking into a nightmare In great pain.

Shi Le sat by the couch, stretched out his hand to rub his brows not very gently, wanted to complain, Xiao Zhi got to this point, mostly because of his bad temper, but he couldn't say it out of his mouth up.

"Le'er, if you're tired, go and rest, this guy will be fine."

But as soon as Shi Le walked a little farther, the guy lying on the couch started to hum, and Xiao Songhan hurriedly said with disgust when he saw this: "This brat is better at acting like a spoiled child than I am."

Shi Le said lightly: "I was used to it before."

Shi Le left Xiao Zhi alone in a daze, moaning, and placed Xiao Songhan in Qiu Jue's former room before returning to his own room. The clothes are all arranged the same as before, and the surrounding things are spotless, and there are bank notes and silver stuffed in the cabinet...

It was so familiar, so familiar that it made people feel scared, as if the past two years had disappeared out of thin air.

Various possibilities surged in Shi Le's mind. He didn't understand why Xiao Zhi had to do such a thing, and tried every means to keep Lizhou's house as it was...?

Throwing aside the messy and disturbing thoughts, Shi Le went to prepare bath water, simply washed up and fell asleep, and we will talk about things tomorrow.

Lying on the familiar couch, all kinds of strange guesses came to my mind again. Shi Le didn't know when she became such a mother-in-law. The power spread quickly, and after a while he was so tired that his forehead was soaked in sweat.

Dawn was about to break, and he was really tired right now, falling into a deep sleep in the thin morning light.

It was hot in summer, and the couch was covered with straw mats, and Shi Le couldn't sleep well, rolling around, moving from one place to another after sleeping in a warm place, until he touched a cold object, which comfortably moved him Putting hands and feet on it, I fell asleep peacefully.

In the afternoon of the next day, Shi Le woke up in a daze, and subconsciously rubbed against the cold object again. It was really comfortable, not only cool, but also soft.

After thinking about it with such satisfaction, Shi Le's heart skipped a beat, realizing that something was wrong, and suddenly woke up from the daze.

He opened his eyes, and the person in front of him had closed eyebrows and thick eyelashes, casting deep and shallow shadows in the bright afternoon sky.

Who else has such a pretty face besides Xiao Zhi?

So the question is, how did this guy walk out of the house in a coma, across the corridor and open the door to sleep on his bed?

What's even more frightening is that Shi Le herself is still hanging on the other party unconsciously.

He swallowed in embarrassment, and moved his body backward with difficulty. Before he moved far, his hand was grabbed by Xiao Zhiyi.

"...!" Shi Le felt guilty and blushed suddenly: "Miss, are you awake?"

The other party didn't respond, only holding Shi Le's hand tightly.

Shi Le put two fingers on his wrist, confirming that this guy did not wake up from the coma, it was even more inconceivable.

So, Xiao Zhi probably found him in his room by sleepwalking...

At this moment, Xiao Songhan was already humming a little tune in the corridor, and the sound of footsteps gradually approached, he called out the window: "Is Le'er awake? It's an evil door. I just went to see in Zhi'er's room, but he's gone."

Shi Le stared at the peaceful Sleeping Beauty beside her, rubbed her temples and said, "It's okay, he's lying on my couch."

"what?"

"Your nephew is now lying on my couch."

"..."

Xiao Zhi was in a coma for three days, and also stuck with Shi Le in a state of sleepwalking for three days.

Every time Shi Le wakes up, there is always a chilly person beside him, so he gets used to it, he sleeps in his bed, and sleepwalking people will not bother him anyway.

Shi Le slept restlessly, and several times, the unconscious Xiao Zhi was kicked out of bed by him...

Once Xiao Songhan came to see his nephew's injury, and found a big bump on the forehead of this handsome nephew, he asked Shile with a half-smile: "Did you beat him to vent your anger last night?"

"...I didn't." Shi Le was wronged, he was not such a boring person.

After a pause, he said casually: "I'm afraid he rolled out of bed by himself at night."

Xiao Songhan narrowed his eyes with a smile, and said seriously, "It's pretty good."

"Huh?" Shi Le didn't know why, so how can an uncle say it's good to his nephew who knocked out a big bag on the head...

"I mean, you have a pretty good relationship with Zhi'er."

"..." Shi Le still wanted to quibble, but he gave up after moving his lips, worried that he would get darker and darker.

Xiao Songhan rarely showed hesitation: "Le'er, to be honest, do you and Zhi'er..."

He hesitated to speak, and scratched his head in embarrassment.

Shi Le was a little dazed for a moment: "Is there anything?"

"You are his attendant, so..."

"Fuck!" Shi Le finally understood what Xiao Songhan was referring to, and was at a loss for what to do: "It's nothing."

Xiao Songhan suddenly sighed: "He can bear that stubbornness."

"..."

"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore."

"..."

"In case you are scared away by me, won't this kid wake up and make me cramp?"

After a pause, he said, "What are your plans for the future?"

Shi Le thought for a while and said, "Find a quiet place to live, and ignore these nonsense things."

"Then, why don't you wait for Zhi'er to wake up before leaving?"

Shi Le was silent for a moment, then nodded: "OK."

Xiao Songhan smiled but said nothing, he thought to himself, can my nephew wake up and let you go?Such a simple truth, such a clear intention, but clever and happy but can't see it clearly, just like the fans of the authorities.

After five days, this nephew who Xiao Songhan said was very patient finally opened his eyes.

At that time, Shi Le had just left the house, and planned to go to Guiyan Tower to buy some appetizers and have a drink with the second master in the evening.

Xiao Zhi woke up and couldn't see anyone, so he sat up immediately, because he got up too quickly, he felt dizzy for a while, and almost rolled out of bed.

"Happy time!"

Called out and no one answered, Xiao Zhi began to break out in a cold sweat. Over the past year, he woke up countless times from the dreams woven by Yanmengcao, and faced the desolate reality alone.

Was everything before that a dream?

The sound of footsteps on the corridor came from far to near, before Xiao Songhan entered the room, the voice drifted in: "You are awake, you can sleep too well."

Xiao Zhi's graying eyes gradually became bright again, and he looked at Xiao Songhan nervously and anxiously: "Where is Shi Le?"

Seeing his nephew's nervous appearance, Xiao Songhan felt teased and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Are you dreaming again?"

Hearing this, Xiao Zhi's face quickly darkened, his lips were pursed into a line, and his five fingers holding the quilt trembled slightly.

"Okay, okay, Le'er is going out to buy food." Xiao Songhan couldn't stand it anymore, and immediately told the truth without holding back.

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Zhi suddenly jumped up from the couch, and walked towards the door unsteadily. Xiao Songhan was startled, and immediately hugged the lunatic who was trying to go out and carried it on his shoulders. Throwing the heavy one back on the couch again, and chattering about what kind of man is so light...

Xiao Zhi's face sank like water, and he said coldly, "What are you doing?"

In order to prevent his spiritual flow from running wild and becoming obsessed, Xiao Songhan sealed his spiritual vein early on, and now he is no different from an ordinary person.

Xiao Songhan looked at him calmly: "Then what do you want to do?"

"You can manage it?"

"How did you talk to the elders?"

"..."

"Catch up, faint halfway and let Le'er carry you back?"

"..." Xiao Zhi's eyes darkened, and he was speechless.

Xiao Songhan clicked his tongue: "Your wayward temper is really unpleasant, no wonder Le'er doesn't want to mess with you again."

"..." Xiao Zhi pursed his lips tightly, and said in a low voice for a moment: "I can, change it."

Seeing his nephew's nervous appearance, Xiao Songhan suddenly felt playful, and smiled slightly: "Can you change it? Back then, you didn't cherish him so much, ruined his spiritual veins and played a trick on him, don't blame Er Uncle, I took him away to warm the bed."

Xiao Zhi was so angry that his lips turned white, he looked back at his smiling second uncle calmly, and after a moment, he raised his fist and slammed Xiao Songhan on the right cheek, and said softly, "Get out."

This punch is very solid.

On the other side, Shi Le, carrying the heavy purse left by Xiao Zhi, went to Guiyan Tower to pack six or seven dishes, and also brought a few pots of lotus brewing. He was walking back with great interest, when suddenly his face darkened, and he was understated. He hooked his fingers, and a cluster of light blue will-o'-the-wisps rose not far behind him.

Not long after, there was a little more silvery white powder on the ground, which was faintly burning ashes.

Shi Le bent down and dipped his index finger in some powder to investigate with his spiritual sense, but he couldn't find the owner's mark. He frowned slightly. Who has been hiding in the dark and watching his every move?

While thinking about it, Shi Le raised his hand, and the powder on the ground re-condensed into a shadow, which disappeared into the night in a half-brightness.

After finishing the matter, Shi Le continued to return to the house with the wine and vegetables. At that time, the bright moon was rising in the east, and the courtyard was completely white. Xiao Songhan was sitting on the porch, wrapping herbal medicine in cotton cloth and applying it to his face.

These herbs were planted by Qiu Jue that year, and Xiao Zhi has been taking care of them during this period, so they have grown vigorously.

Shi Le entered the courtyard, saw Xiao Songhan fiddle with herbs while applying to his face, and said strangely: "Second Master, you..."

He didn't finish a sentence, and saw Xiao Songhan's swollen right cheek clearly through the shadow of the moonlight, and swallowed the unfinished words in surprise.

Xiao Songhan raised his head bitterly, curled his lips: "That bastard woke up, and hit me as soon as he woke up."

The corners of Shi Le's lips twitched, and he couldn't hold back his laugh: "Why did your uncle and nephew fight at home?"

"...I was just joking with him. Who knew he would be cruel. Fortunately, I sealed the spirit veins in advance, or I might have knocked my head off."

"...You haven't lost your teeth, have you?" Although he knew that laughing at the moment was a bit unkind, Shi Le really couldn't hold it back.

Xiao Songhan snorted: "If his mother's bastard dares to knock out my teeth, I will break his three legs."

three legs?Shi Le shuddered, then their Xiao family would die.

"How is Xiao Zhi?"

Xiao Songhan yawned and said, "That bastard, I'm hanging in the room and shutting myself up."

hanging in the house?It's hard for Shi Le to imagine how this adjective can be applied to the mighty Xiao Zhi...

"Go in and have a look. If he is hanged to death by me, it will be difficult to go to the underworld to file a complaint with my brother."
