"Master, here, hurry up, I'll take you out." A purposely lowered voice caught Yin Nanhan's attention. He frowned, and when he looked from behind the cave in the rockery, he saw a familiar maidservant in bright red attire Hurrying by with one person.
The maid, he knew, was Xiaotao, his wife's dowry, but why did she take such a remote road, and act so sneaky, and who was behind her
Even if he knows everything about the sect, he rarely comes this way. If it wasn't for today's whim, how could he come across this scene? It is strange to sneak out through this little-known side door.
Suspicions arose in his heart, so Yin Nanhan did not leave in a hurry, but continued to stare closely at the person behind Xiaotao. Finally, the person behind Xiaotao who had always lowered his head looked up when he turned into a small road. Zhang Mingming had never seen him before, but he caught sight of familiar faces everywhere, and Yin Nanhan was stunned for a moment.
Like, it's so similar... how could there be such a similar person, his wife obviously doesn't have one, since it's not an uncle-nephew relationship, then why does that man look so similar to his eldest son Jin'er. Yin Nanhan looked at the two figures walking away, with a cold light in his eyes, and followed them quietly.
Xiaotao and the person behind her both have some skills, but how can they be compared with him, so Yin Nanhan followed the two of them without any notice, and as the distance got closer, some words between the two also reached Yin Nanhan's ears .
"My lord, please don't come. Do you know how dangerous it is to do this? Madam was almost scared to death today, if it wasn't for the absence of the leader." Xiao Tao's tone was a little annoyed and anxious.
"Hmph, why can't you come? I'll come to see my son. What's wrong?" The man behind Xiaotao snorted and said angrily.
"My son, I know the relationship between you and your wife since childhood, but now my wife is the wife of the leader of the Black Moon Sect, and the young master is also the rightful young master of the Black Moon Sect. If you come to the school secretly like this, how do you treat the lady and the young master?" How about it, if they are found out, are the madam and the young master still alive? My son, please listen to me, don’t you know how madam has feelings for you? You have endured it for so many years, why don’t you bear it for a few more years, the young master is now If you are the young master, you will be the leader in the future. At that time, you will be able to be with your wife in an open and aboveboard manner. The young master has always listened to your wife. After knowing the truth, will you still deny you as your own father?"
None of Xiao Tao's low-key words escaped Yin Nanhan's ears, but each sentence was so ironic that he couldn't believe that he had been deceived by his closest wife and children for so many years. The extremely green hat, the proud son who devoted himself to teaching for so many years, was actually raised by others.
Seeing the small wooden door at the end of the path in the distance, Xiaotao quickened her pace and trotted over, "Young master, let's go, this is the letter my wife asked me to give you, and I must not sneak here again like this time."
Listening to the conversation between the two, Yin Nanhan's eyes turned cold, and he walked out of his hiding place with a gloomy face, "Go, where are you going?"
The faces of Xiao Tao and the man instantly turned pale as if they had seen a ghost.
…
He kicked the woman holding his leg away, and said coldly, "Say, what's your relationship with that man?"
The woman who was kicked away was seriously injured, but still crawled back recklessly, "Husband, it's not like that, I really didn't do those things."
"No." Yin Nan smiled coldly, and raised his hand to grab the letter written by the woman on the table and threw it at his former wife. Seeing the pale face of the woman who picked up the letter, he felt a sense of joy in his heart , no one can deceive him, no one. It's a joke that this woman and that adulterer want to rely on that bastard to take away his teaching position. What others can take away from him must be what he is willing to give. If he doesn't want to give it, no one should think Get your hands on half a point. Naturally, his position in the Black Moon God Sect would not be passed on to a bastard. This woman's sweet dream would probably come to an end here.
After disposing of the woman, he sat quietly in the upper seat. At this moment, someone beside him said, "Master, there is still a young master in the backyard."
He froze for a moment, and said after a long time, "Then... take it."
He had never paid attention to his son in the backyard before. After all, he was just an accidental bastard. He never had any expectations for his arrival, so naturally he didn't pay much attention. He just gave the mother and son a yard, I never saw it again.
Speaking of which, although he seldom thinks of that child, he has never seen that child appear in front of his eyes once. Needless to say, he knows who did the tricks, but it is a pity that at that time all his thoughts were devoted to his son-in-law. In his heart, only Yin Jin was the child that satisfied him. Who would have thought that the son he devoted himself to would not be his offspring, but his own son had suffered so many years under the hands of the vicious woman in the backyard.
He punished all the servants who had bullied Yin Rui over the years, and waited a few days before meeting the child he had never met.
The time he went to see the child was at night. Night is the time when people are most relaxed, but it is also the time that can bring people the most oppressive feeling. Talking to people at this time can always get the best results.
Looking at the child who was brought in, he carefully looked at it without saying a word. Unexpectedly, the child did not have the cowardice of being bullied all the year round as he imagined, but was unusually calm, and he was able to raise his head and look directly at his face. His eyes seemed to be evaluating his father. Yin Nanhan almost wanted to laugh. It had been many years since there was such a bold person. Even when that bastard was the most favored, he didn't dare to look at him like this. However, this is indeed his son.
His Yin Nanhan's son, no matter what, is better than that wild species. However, this child has been neglected by the woman in the backyard for so many years, and he wants to cultivate it. I don't know if it is too late. He wants to see the child's level Immediately said, "Write a few words to see."
"Huh?" The child looked at him blankly.
He frowned. Could it be that this kid can't even write? Fortunately, the child still picked up the pen, um, the posture of holding the pen still looks good, he nodded, but when he saw the child's handwriting clearly, all his good mood disappeared without a trace, he After being silent for a while, he said to the subordinates who were waiting on the side, "Go and invite some teachers to come, and teach the young master tomorrow, starting from the enlightenment teaching."
He touched the child's bones and found that it turned out to be a good seedling. When he said that he wanted to teach the child to practice martial arts, he noticed the excitement flashing in the eyes of the child who had been calm since entering the door. Do you love martial arts? Sure enough, his temperament also followed him, unlike Yin Jin, who prefers to watch those miscellaneous things rather than practicing martial arts. Speaking of which, although the wild species has been washed with various precious medicinal materials by him since he was a child, his actual aptitude is not. It's not as good as the child in front of him. He was blinded by something in the past, and he even recognized that bastard who didn't even half resemble him as his own son for more than ten years.
The more he compares, the more he sees the goodness of the child in front of him. Because eight years of time have been wasted, he has set very high requirements for this child. What is satisfactory is that this child works very hard and hardly uses anyone. With urging, he can accomplish his goals.
That day, he just walked around the church on a whim, but what he saw, he ran into his son saving a cat.
How could he, the heir of the Black Moon God Sect, be so merciful if he wanted to save even a cat. However, the proud face announcing that all the cats in the church are his children is really unexpected... cute.
Although he felt that the innocent child was not lacking in cuteness, he still obeyed his heart and forced the child's hands to be stained with blood, but looking at the child with oppressive darkness in his eyes, he regretted that he used this method to force Is it too hasty for the child to grow up? It seems that the child will never get close to him again in this life.
But unexpectedly, one night, when he saw him, the child smiled at him again, as if nothing had happened. He was surprised and secretly guarded, but he didn't wait for the child to show any abnormality. His behavior seemed to have no grudge against him, but he only saw the hatred in his eyes during the day.
Afterwards, he asked him to do a few similar things, and the child solved them neatly. Looking at that calm little face, he shook his head for his previous miscalculation. Yes, but I don't know why he pretended to be close to him at night, and why he didn't pretend to be more thorough if he wanted to please him.
He became interested in the child's behavior. He thought that the child would be as tolerant as the viciousness engraved in his bones. It might not be long before the child took the initiative to walk up to him and said to him, "From now on... This kind of thing, just let me finish it during the day, don't look for me at night."
He couldn't figure out what the kid meant by saying that he wanted a temporary truce? Although he didn't know the reason for the child's request, he saw the persistence in the child's eyes, as if this request was his bottom line. Everyone has a bottom line that cannot be stepped on. He agreed to this request. Although he was strict with the child, he didn't want the father and son to be like enemies. After all, this is his only child at present, and let the child do those things in order to hone him. However, most of those things are done manually, not by him.
I don't know when, the child only wore black and white clothes, and he must be dressed in black during the day, and spotless white at night. He still remembered the child's flash of resentment, and he didn't believe in that kind of hatred. , will completely dissipate in a short period of time, so he waits patiently for the child's purpose, he wants to see how far his son can achieve.
Whenever the child showed affection to him at night, he watched the child flattering him calmly. Of course, he knew very well that these favors were not for the purpose of getting his father's love from him. Yes, the child understands what he relies on to gain a foothold in the church when he is still young, and also understands what is the most important thing if he wants to be truly strong.
Although he was calculated, he didn't hate these things carefully to please him. He even really wanted to teach this son everything, but every time his cold heart softened a little, the However, the child's attitude took an eighty-degree turn. Although the cold expression was well concealed, it was still not difficult to detect the disgust. He was taken aback by the child who suddenly became a stranger in front of him.
He didn't understand what kind of tricks the child was playing, but his tolerance for this kind of hot and cold attitude was limited. He took some opportunities to punish the child when he turned his back on him, and sure enough, In the evening, the child resumed his soft, ingratiating attitude.
But it didn't make him feel at ease for a long time. After one night, that child turned into that white-eyed wolf again, which made him very angry. Before he had time to feel the frustration, he gradually discovered something was wrong. After being deceived once, he became more sensitive to conspiracy. No matter how well two people pretend to fit together, it is impossible for two people to become one person. As time grows together, he always Can find some violations in that child.
What he always thought of was that someone was pretending to be the child, but under the open and covert investigation of the people he sent, he found nothing, and some small marks he left on the child himself confirmed that it was indeed his. Son, it is the same person during the day and night, but how does this explain some of the child's completely different habits during the day and night, as well as those occasional words that don't match.
He kept these doubts deep in his heart and observed every day. Finally, he discovered an interesting phenomenon, that is, when he talked about the child's affairs at night during the day, the child who never paid much attention to him would hear extra Seriously, no matter what he said, even when he stopped, he could faintly see the longing in the child's eyes, as if he wanted him to say more, even a sentence or a half.
In the same way, when he talks about what happened during the day in front of the kid who fawns over him at night, the kid will also listen very quietly. He continued, instead of hiding the desire in his heart no matter how urgent the desire is during the day.
Look, what an interesting thing he discovered. It seems that his child has two completely different personalities during the day and night. Not only that, these two personalities are completely ignorant of what happened to them, although they don't know how they communicate, and how they cooperate so well But this can't fool him. Without the memory of personal experience, no matter how he pretends to be, his flaws will still be exposed.
The double-faced man, his son really gave him a big surprise. Yin Nanhan has been reading the group since he was a child, and he never refuses to come to those gossip. Naturally, he has read anecdotes about the double-faced man, but he has never After thinking about it, his son is a living double-faced person.
It is rumored that although a double-faced person has two sides, only one of them is the main character, which is the original character of that person, and the other is an incidental character. Yin Nanhan carefully observed his son, trying to distinguish which one is the right one. That main character, but he failed again.
It stands to reason that the main character appears more often, and even double-faced people live with their true colors most of the time. Only when they are stimulated, the other side will be stimulated, but his son is fine. One kind of character is during the day, and the other is at night. The time distribution is extremely even, and it is impossible to distinguish between the primary and secondary. This made Yin Nanhan cancel his original plan to find out the main character and focus on cultivating it. Fortunately, his son has these two sides. , all made him very satisfied. During the day, he is fierce and decisive, and has all the qualities required by the leader of a sect. At night, he is steady and rational, understands balance, and can grasp people's hearts. More importantly, his son, whether it is Whether it is the day side or the night side, they both work hard and are motivated. Although he didn't know why they all wanted to gain more powerful power so urgently, but he was happy to see the result.
Ever since he knew that his son was a double-faced person, his greatest achievement was probably that, at any time, as long as he looked at the sky, he would not confuse them. He also gradually began to distinguish between the two sides of his son. This feeling is very strange, as if there was only one son before, but now there are two. But he didn't feel any disobedience to his cognition of having two sons, because after making the distinction, the previously inconspicuous differences became more distinct in his eyes. Later, even if he didn't look at the sky, With just one glance, he could tell who it was.
Although he had already made clear the biggest secret of his son, he didn't mean to say anything. In fact, watching them try hard to pretend to be one person is quite interesting. Of course, he had to admit that as he got along year after year, he preferred the son who was humble on the surface at night, but actually put him the last In the eyes of his son, who is always trying to coax something out of him, these older, more upright and handsome boys are smiling softly and pleading with people, which really melts people's hearts.
But, are his Yin Nanhan's things so easy to find? He listened to the novel reasons made up by the other party with a smile on his face, and at the same time made a request that made the other party feel bitter in an instant. But he knows that his son's character is actually the most persistent, because no matter how difficult his request is, the other party will always try to achieve it, and then take what he wants from him.
The only thing that puzzled him was that he thought that what the child wanted at night was what he wanted, but no matter whether it was the profound skills or the sharp sword, he could see it in the son during the day. At that moment, he couldn't tell whether he was unhappy or what.
Why are you so undefended? Don't you want to gain a little advantage for yourself? Or is it because we are actually one person, so we don't need to be on guard against anything, and we don't need to fight over anything, just because we are one
What kind of feeling was that, Yin Nanhan couldn't feel it, but he knew at that moment that for the child in the night, another self must be more important than his father.
That child can come to him with a smile to get benefits, but he will never hide anything from the half of his body during the day. What is the faint sense of loss in his heart for
Yin Nanhan stroked his chest, because of the strange emotion he had never experienced before. Although he didn't know why this feeling was, it made him very uncomfortable. He was uncomfortable, and others couldn't be comfortable either. It's his birthday, what gift do you want this year, last year the child gave you a dagger forged by yourself, this year it's better to... Brew, um, think about drinking the wine brewed by that child every day, I feel It's surprisingly good.
…
On his birthday that year, Yin Nanhan drank the wine he asked for as he wished, and was satisfied...
On the birthday of the second year, he received a jade ornament carved by the child himself...
In another year, he ordered the child to go to Qingshan Temple, and asked for a peace talisman in the most sincere way, and Shi Shiran hung it on his body...
And then... and then nothing...
Yin Nanhan raised his head, looked at the dark and damp underground cave, and sighed softly. He was a wise man all his life, and he had never failed. Who knew that he fell on that little wolf cub in the end. Now, he is imprisoned in This place has been around for a year.
This place is cold, damp, and small, and the only sounds are the sound of dripping water and the squeaking of rats scurrying from nowhere. Speaking of which, there shouldn't be rats in such a closed place, but he has no doubt that his unfilial son who pays every penny will deliberately throw a few rats down in order to make his environment worse.
The bone-piercing loneliness will make people crazy. In this dark place, he became increasingly anxious, lost the self-control he was proud of, and began to anger the unfilial son with words, using all kinds of irony, he knew, This is irrational, the furious and unfilial son will not show mercy in this place where no one interferes, if not for the fact that he still has the ability to absorb internal energy, he probably wouldn't have survived this time. But he couldn't control himself, he hated the feeling of being forgotten in the dark, since when did he think of the child at night more and more frequently, did the child know he was here
No, that child must not know, if he knew, he would definitely come to see him...
