Chapter 16

I stared, and shouted at him with restrained anger: "I'm fine! Sir, you don't have to be so guilty with a human face!"

Shui Xingge paused, looked at me up and down: "You are dressed like this... and you sleep so peacefully in the best room in Tianxian Pavilion? Isn't this Xiao Lian's bedroom?"

I sneered, and couldn't help sneering and sarcastic: "Since the leader is gone, why do you come back? I am dead, and there are thousands of girls who can enter the bathhouse for you to find a benefactor girl."

Seeing that he frowned again, he seemed to want to say something, but stopped.Seeing that I was so angry that I wished I could kill him.But after thinking about it, why am I so angry... It is indeed not a relationship, but a relationship of interest in the beginning.I covered my aching heart, Shen Qiu, Shen Qiu, what is there to be tempted by this kind of man who abandons you and runs away at a critical moment!
Didn't leave, could it be that you have become a ghost and have been following me faintly!
I looked at the unnatural blush on his face, and twitched my mouth: "Don't tell me that your dissatisfied look is the result of wandering around here all night."

Shui Xingge withdrew his gaze, and said lightly: "There are enchanting fragrances everywhere here, you should be glad that I can resist not attacking you."

"……thanks."

No, why should I thank him in turn!
He stood up and blocked most of my sight, his eyes were full of his tall figure: "Come with me, this place is not safe after all."

I hugged my knees and said, "It's very safe, Xiao Lian is my half-brother who has been separated for many years."

Shui Xingge was stunned for a moment, then unexpectedly said: "Brother?"

I was proud: "Yeah, so I'm fine and safe now. If you don't want to be caught, run away." I suddenly remembered what happened that night, stared at him and asked, "Why did your body suddenly look so... Leng, and, you said you didn't leave the brothel, where did you go? Why... didn't you come to save me?"

Although the question was shameless, but my heart was very itchy, I wanted to know what he was thinking, and why he didn't show up.

Shui Xingge said: "I will tell you if I find a suitable opportunity in the future."

"not now?"

"No." He replied without thinking, and said slowly after a long time, "If I tell you now, you will definitely leave from now on and never want to show up again."

Seeing that he seemed to have something to hide, I kept silent: "Just tell me...you really didn't leave me alone and run away..."

"No."

I smiled with relief: "We will still be friends from now on."

He nodded, turned his face away: "I'll go outside to get some air."

...I must have been enduring the scent of obsession...Seeing him coming out of the window, I smiled wryly, got up and washed my face, and looked at half of my face still wrapped in gauze reflected in the water, it was really ugly.Thinking that Shui Xingge didn't intend to leave me behind, my heart gradually warmed up.I hope he really has a hard time and is not lying to me.

But it doesn't seem to be beneficial for him to lie to me, and he really hasn't left the brothel, otherwise, the fragrance all over his body, and how did he know that this room was originally lived in by Brother Seventeen, that is to say, he has been here, waiting for an opportunity move?
At Chenshi, Brother Seventeen sent someone to say that it was inconvenient for a girl to live here, and asked me to move to a nearby inn.I was worried that Shui Xingge could not be found, so I said it was comfortable to live here.

It wasn't until evening that I saw Brother Seventeen again.

The aromatherapy has been removed from the room. Although there is still a little lingering fragrance in the room, it is not pungent.Brother Seventeen is wearing a dark red gown with straight breasts, the cuffs are embroidered with vermilion clouds, the color is both elegant and charming.A white jade belt around his waist, black hair like silk, loose but not messy.Casual and handsome, completely different from the decadent feeling before.

There were Guozhen cakes on the table. I was hungry for two days and took a piece of sponge cake to eat. It was soft and delicious, very sweet, and I couldn't help laughing: "Brother Shiqi, do you have any news about the other brothers and sisters?"

Brother Seventeen shook his head: "The world is so big and there are so many people. There was a sudden change at home at that time, so I didn't have time to take care of it. I took the position of head of the sect two years ago. Someone searched for it, but there was no clue."

I frowned: "It stands to reason that there are a total of 28 children in our Shen family. When we were separated, the eldest brother was already 27 years old, and his appearance would not change. If we took the portrait, how could we not even hear about him?" Can't find out."

Brother Seventeen smiled and said: "So Qi is Qi here. I asked someone to draw portraits of my two brothers and three sisters, but I couldn't find any of them. Let alone you little ones. Adoption, it is easy to change the name and surname together, and you can’t even remember who you are.”

I smiled, that's true, otherwise, how could Long Miaoyin be called Long Miaoyin, I am afraid that the robber saints I met would just treat her as an orphan.When I went up the mountain, my wife washed me up and told me what my original name was, so I would call it whatever.Our Five Poison Mountain is accepting apprentices, not children, as usual.

"Qiu'er, there is one more thing that I have been puzzling over the years."

"Ok?"

"How did my father's big family business collapse overnight? I asked my mother-in-law and the aunts whom my father loved, but I didn't know. Even the housekeeper who stayed with me every step of the way didn't know."

I scratched my head: "I heard from the nanny that my father was framed by a traitor, but I don't know exactly what happened."

Brother Seventeen sighed: "Forget it, it's been so many years, it's meaningless to delve into it. I just don't know if Dad is still alive, and how many other brothers and sisters are still alive."

We sighed with emotion about the past, which only added infinite melancholy.My stomach was half full, and I asked again: "When did Long Miaoyin steal the Nanhai Yuxiao?"

Brother Seventeen smiled wryly: "Two months ago." He looked at my face again, "Although half of it was hurt, but after careful identification, it is still no different from a portrait. I will be hunted down by the thief. You and I will go back to Nanhai Mountain for a while. Avoid it."

"Well... I still have things to do. Brother Seventeen, although you are famous in the South China Sea, the reputation of the Demon Cult seems to be even greater. Is it really okay for you to openly catch water and sing?"

He paused, took a sip of his wine, and then took out a golden token from his pocket: "Li Cang secretly summoned all the sects to prevent the Demon Cult from entering the Central Plains. Once they appear, they will be encircled and suppressed with all their strength."

I was stunned for a moment, the token was an oath order, and only the leader can use it: "Li Cang... what is he afraid of the Demon Cult? He just got tired of staying there and wanted to come to the Central Plains to take in apprentices and visit the Central Plains, Li Cang... But Cang was terrified and felt that things were not easy."

Brother Seventeen smiled, and finally frowned: "How do you know that the Demon Cult just wants to come to the Central Plains?"

I thought about it, and found the most appropriate statement: "I and their leader are friends who share weal and woe."

Brother Seventeen was quite surprised, and said solemnly: "You can't associate with him again, or you will only get angry. Although Li Cang's intentions are unknown, it is imperative to expel the Demon Cult. You have already taken the blame for Long Miaoyin , if another Demon Sect is added, Brother Seventeen will not be able to protect you. No, you will follow me back to the South China Sea later."

Before I could answer, I heard a person say: "Nanhai can't protect her, the Demon Cult can."

Looking back, Shui Xingge appeared in front of the window lightly.I silently complained that he can really use the window as a door if he is good at lightness kung fu...

Brother Seventeen's expression changed, and a dagger appeared in his right hand. Just as he was about to get up, I immediately grabbed him: "Shui Xingge is not a bad person."

Shui Xingge didn't approach, and said in a low voice, "The news that the Nanhai faction has captured Long Miaoyin has already spread, and they will find them soon. You can't protect her. Since you obey Li Cang, then you should You know, no matter how powerful you are, you still have to take into account your influence in the martial arts world, and the Devil's Cult doesn't."

Brother Seventeen was silent, looking at him suspiciously: "You have only been in the Central Plains for two months, how can I entrust my little sister to your care?"

Hey, Brother Seventeen, why do your words make me feel like I have committed my whole life.

He said coldly again: "The person who went to capture you that night didn't need any effort. But today you came in from the outside, but I didn't know that your martial arts are good and bad. Could it be that you have practiced some evil martial arts, let alone I want to put my mind at ease."

When Seventeenth Brother said this, I just remembered that Shui Xingge was particularly concerned about the two days of the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year, and disappeared every two days.Thinking about it carefully, last night happened to be the first day of junior high school.Could it be that he really practiced strange martial arts, and what strange things happened in the past two days that made him unable to see people?
I suddenly trotted up to him, opened the sleeve of his right hand, and the wound that was still festering the day before yesterday was gone.The complexion is as usual, fair and clear without any scars.I looked up at him in astonishment, only to see his eyes move, his eyes slightly avoided, and he didn't look at me.

He hurt his foot last time, and he recovered inexplicably.Now that I hurt my hand, it is inexplicably healed.

I tugged at his hand and felt sad, oh shit, I want to practice this kind of evil martial arts too!I'm also injured and can recover naturally!May the wound on the face heal naturally!
He didn't speak, and it was inconvenient for me to ask him. After a long time, I suddenly heard the voice of Seventeenth Brother who suddenly realized: "So you have this kind of relationship, so I can rest assured. Master Water, please take care of my little one." sister!"

Shui Xingge and I looked at him inexplicably, looking at Brother Seventeen's expression of comfort at the appearance of my younger sister, I said with difficulty: "No...brother, Shui Xingge and I don't have that kind of relationship... "

"If he bullies you in the future, you must tell me, and I will make the decision for you."

"you listen to me……"

"Come on, those bastards will find you soon, and you must tell me if you have a nephew!"

My heart rolled three times, you listen to me, you listen to me to say something!
Brother Seventeen refused to listen, and fell into the fantasy of "I have a brother-in-law and he is also the leader of the Demon Cult, so refreshing."Shui Xingge and I glanced at each other, feeling helpless, and didn't bother to explain.

Brother Seventeen ordered someone to bring me a heavy bag, and I smiled all over my face: "It's all money?"

"It's just a small amount of money. It should be no problem to save some money and go to the Western Regions."

I took a sneak peek, Huang Cancan almost blinded my eyes.

It's just, a little, a little money... dear brother, there is no need to save some money!How extravagant you are!
I hugged the bag happily, completely ignoring Shui Xingge's slanting eyes: "When I find Long Miaoyin, I will grab her and go to Nanhai Mountain to find you together."

Brother Seventeen sighed lightly, like he did when he tricked my sugar man away when he was a child, and said earnestly: "Be careful all the way, and live well."

The tone was low, and I felt dejected when I heard it. I raised my head and smiled: "Brother Seventeen should be fine too."

One farewell for six years, meeting and parting again, I don't know when we will meet in another year...

Early autumn is coming soon.
