Upon hearing Xu Xingzhi's voice, Jiuzhideng's lips trembled slightly.
He stood up against the wall, not even daring to look at Xu Xingzhi: "... Senior Brother."
"Why don't you go in?" Xu Xingzhi asked.
"I shouldn't have gone in." Jiuzhideng replied, "I'm sorry senior brother."
Xu Xingzhi's shoulders leaned on the corridor, and he raised his eyebrows curiously: "Why are you sorry for me?"
Nine lanterns: "Senior brother's injury..."
Xu Xingzhi waved his hand and said, "I, Xu Xingzhi, have always had only one principle in doing things, that is, I am happy, I am happy. Senior brother is very happy to be able to block that for you. Otherwise, would my senior brother still be decent?"
Jiuzhideng suddenly raised his head: "I don't want this. I'd rather be... "
Halfway through his words, he choked up, biting his lips and frowning, turning his face away.
Xu Xingzhi was often the least able to do anything about the nine-branched lantern in this look, and persuaded: "Little Lantern, don't hold it in your heart if you have something, just say it if you want to."
After forbearing for a while, Jiuzhideng said in a muffled voice: "…Senior brother, I know in my heart that you don't want to tell others about your injury, not because you are afraid of Senior Brother Zhou and the others laughing at you."
Xu Xingzhi scratched his face and turned his eyes slightly: "Xiao Deng, stop talking."
Jiuzhideng's eyes were gloomy: "...It's because of me. Because of my identity."
Xu Xingzhi didn't want him to say any more: "...Little lamp."
Jiuzhideng said stubbornly: "… If the senior brother was injured because he was protecting Meng Chongguang, the senior brother would definitely not hide it like this. Because Meng Chongguang is a mortal person with a clean and innocent life, unlike me, if the master and uncle know that you are injured because of me , will definitely be extremely angry, in comparison, Meng Chongguang is different from me..."
"Nine lanterns!"
Xu Xingzhi sternly interrupted Jiuzhideng's words: "Are you listening to other people's nonsense with these bastards, or do you think so in your own heart?"
Now that he has spoken, Jiuzhideng no longer hides his thoughts. With the feeling of breaking the jar, he gritted his teeth and said, "Aren't these things more obvious? There is no need for others to talk about it..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Xingzhi hurried over and raised his hand to light his head.
Although it hit loudly this time, Jiuzhideng didn't feel any pain at all, and in the next instant, he was pulled into a cold embrace.
Xu Xingzhi hugged him in his arms, and every word he said was biting on the roots of his teeth, and he said loudly: "Jiuzhideng, remember it to me, no matter what your background is, now you are my junior brother Xu Xingzhi. You are not allowed to say such self-deprecating words again, do you hear me?"
After being stunned for a while, Jiuzhideng tightened Xu Xingzhi's circle even harder, and the strength of the binding of his arms was so strong that it almost squeezed Xu Xingzhi's internal organs into position.
"...Senior brother." Jiuzhideng said hoarsely, "Senior brother."
Xu Xingzhi finally laughed, he lowered his head and hugged Jiuzhideng's head, touched the wispy hair tie on his hair, and boasted: "Is it okay to be my junior brother Xu Xingzhi? Others want to beg me to do this. I can't ask for a good senior brother."
Nine Lanterns: "... um."
Xu Xingzhi said again: "Isn't it okay to keep a straight face all day long and laugh like Chongguang?"
Hearing the word "heavy light", the expression of Jiuzhi Lan, who was holding Xu Xingzhi with peace of mind, changed slightly.
He let go of the arm that held Xu Xingzhi tightly, and his voice was full of unhappiness: "Yes. I know."
Xu Xingzhi scratched his nose smoothly: "What is it? It's been so many years, and it's still so tight in front of me."
After venting his emotions, Jiuzhi Lan is still the same Jiuzhi Lan that acts horizontally and vertically.
He picked up the pills on the ground one by one and stuffed them into Xu Xingzhi's arms.
Xu Xingzhi accepted it without any hesitation. He just needs these medicines, and he doesn't want to brush off the kindness of Jiuzhilan.
When the fingers crossed, the coldness of Xu Xingzhi's fingertips made Jiuzhideng's expression congeal.
After handing all the medicines to Xu Xing, Jiuzhideng untied his robe, draped the still warm clothes over Xu Xing's shoulders, and carefully tucked them in for Xu Xingzhi: "Senior brother, you are only injured, you are more exposed, be careful. Body."
Xu Xingzhi's hands were fully occupied, and he couldn't refuse, so he simply put them away, and kicked Jiuzhideng's waist with his foot: "Go, go, go back and rest, I still have something to do."
Jiuzhideng asked casually, "It's so late, where do you want to go?"
Xu Xingzhi said: "Chongguang wants to move in and live with me, I will go and explain to my uncle."
Jiuzhideng's eyes suddenly became more gloomy, and the cold mist churned: "...Really?"
Jiuzhideng has always been this sneering, Xu Xingzhi was used to it, and he didn't think much about it: "Go back, go back."
Xu Xingzhi turned around and took a few steps, and suddenly heard the nine-branched lantern behind him calling out "Senior Brother".
Xu Xingzhi turned his head and saw the nine lanterns on the opposite side of the corridor bathed in the phantom-like soft moonlight, trying to move the corners of his mouth, as if he wanted to make an expression.
Xu Xingzhi raised his eyebrows, slightly suspicious.
The nine lanterns at the other end finally realized the fact that he was not good at regulating his face, he lowered his head and made up his mind for a moment, then pressed his index and middle fingers to the ends of the corners of his mouth, opened the corners of his mouth diagonally upwards, and made a smiling face.
Xu Xingyi burst out in joy and strode back, but he couldn't get his hands to hug him, so he had to bend down a little and kissed the top of his hair.
Jiuzhideng suddenly stiffened, his lips and teeth collided slightly, and his normally cold cheeks and lips showed an abnormal blush, but fortunately, they could not be seen clearly under the night.
After kissing this, Xu Xingzhi actually regretted it.
He used to do similar intimate actions with Meng Chongguang before, but this was the first time with Jiuzhideng.
Seeing that there was no disgust in Jiuzhideng, Xu Xingzhi let go of his heart: "Little Deng, if you don't like to laugh, you don't have to force it. Senior brother only wishes you to do what you want to do and be safe and happy forever."
Jiuzhideng clenched his fists tightly, his whole body trembling with excitement, he managed to suppress the tumultuous mood, and replied in a steady voice: "Yes, thank you, brother."
Xu Xingzhi left from the corridor, put the medicine in the side hall, and then went to the disciple hall.
Nine lanterns were still watching, motionless.
Just when Xu Xingzhi's figure disappeared, the window in the hall was suddenly pushed open from the inside.
Meng Zhongguang was by the edge of the bed, his eyes coldly looking at Jiuzhideng, his brows had long since lost the softness and gentleness with Xu Xingzhi, and he could not wait to wrap his eyes around Jiuzhideng's neck and strangle him on the spot.
Jiuzhideng didn't have a good look on the gorgeous face. He looked back with a cold look on his face.
Meng Chongguang pointed provocatively at the candle-filled hall, and then pointed at himself.
Jiuzhideng turned towards Meng Chongguang, touched the top of the hair that was kissed by Xu Xingzhi just now, and the corner of his lips turned to one side.
Meng Chongguang was so angry that he closed the window with a snap.
And when Meng Chongguang disappeared, Jiuzhideng also restrained his color, and took a deep look at the closed door, the dark fire of jealousy burned in his eyes for a long time and still did not dissipate.
He stood under the corridor for a while, then turned around and walked away, burying the thin figure of Xiao Su into the night.
When Xu Xingzhi came back with the quilt, Meng Chongguang was still not asleep, and rolled around on the bed like a mad puppy.
As soon as he saw Xu Xingzhi, he jumped up and hugged Xu Xingzhi tightly across a quilt: "Why did you go for so long? Chongguang misses Senior Brother so much."
Xu Xingzhi criticized him: "What do you think? In the past, when your senior brother was not by your side, were you so unremarkable in the disciple hall?"
Meng Chongguang said boldly: "At that time, it was all my brothers in my dreams. When I woke up, I thought so much, I would go to the door of the brother's palace and sleep secretly for a night."
Xu Xingzhi naturally didn't believe it: "...you just talk nonsense. Go to bed, it's really cold outside."
Meng Chongguang stopped Xu Xingzhi: "Senior brother came back with cold air, don't you need to take a shower?"
Xu Xingzhi thought about it too. When he put down the quilt and was about to undress, he saw Meng Chongguang also began to untie his belt.
Xu Xingzhi: "...what are you doing?"
Meng Chongguang's eyes were as clear as a small animal, biting his lips and muttering, "I haven't had a bath since I came back from Baimajian."
The two men took a bath, and it didn't matter if they thought about it. Xu Xingzhi didn't think much, he took off his robes and walked towards the hot spring pool.
Meng Chongguang rejoiced, followed behind Xu Xingzhi, jumped into the hot spring pool, buried the lower half of his face in the pool that had returned to the clear, and threw bubbles for a while before swimming to Xu Xingzhi's side. The ring tightened Xu Xingzhi's back.
Xu Xingzhi has always been used to bathing alone. He was closing his eyes and resting, when he was suddenly surrounded by a warm ball, his shoulders stiffened, and then he remembered that there was another person in the pool. He turned around: "You don't have to line up to bathe with other disciples, does it feel okay?"
Meng Chongguang nodded obediently, but his eyes stayed on Xu Xingzhi's lips that had just kissed Jiuzhideng's hair.
The distance between the two was already very small, and it was the first time that they were naked.
Meng Chongguang said, "Senior brother, you have something dirty on your mouth."
As he said that, he raised his hand and wiped Xu Xingzhi's lips, which were fumigated by the heat, over and over again, with extreme force, as if there was the most filthy filth in the world.
Xu Xingzhi sucked in a breath of cold air, stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, and then spread his hand out to see that there was bloodshot from the palm of his hand.
…his lips were gritted by his teeth.
Xu Xingzhi was angry and funny: "Then why do you work so hard? Is it a loofah as a senior brother?"
Meng Chongguang looked at the thin bloodstain on the corner of Xu Xingzhi's mouth that had not been wiped clean, carefully licked his lips, and controlled to look away: "Senior brother, there is blood on the corner of the mouth."
Xu Xingzhi felt quite funny, and while wiping with water, he said, "You are helping senior brother to wipe the blood together."
Meng Chongguang's cheeks were hot and hot: "...I'm afraid to scare my brother."
Xu Xingzhi was inexplicable, but he didn't take it to heart.
After bathing together, the two made a bed together and went to bed.
Xu Xingzhi and his uncle Guangfu Jun said that he would take Meng Chongguang to serve him by his side.
The so-called waiter, of course, is that one sleeps on the bed and the other keeps watch.
The other three factions are the same.
But Xu Xingzhi's background made him not like this kind of rules at all, and he was reluctant to ask Meng Chongguang to sleep on the ground, so he simply let him sleep in the same bed with himself.
… his bed was spacious enough for him.
The pain on his body has not disappeared, but seeing Meng Chongguang, Xu Xingzhi's mood brightened a bit, and he couldn't sleep well, so he simply talked to Meng Chongguang at night.
Xu Xingzhi squeezed Meng Chongguang's nose and shook it: "When I brought you back, your spiritual roots were still good, and the master recognized it and said that your future is limitless. After so many years, how can you stop doing it after conjuring pills? There's no profit, eh?"
Meng Chongguang crawled out of his bed, climbed onto Xu Xingzhi, and coquettishly said, "Without Jinyi, why don't you want to go to bed again?"
When Xu Xingzhi leaned on one hand and looked down at Meng Chongguang slightly, his eyes were the brightest and roundest, and he looked at him like a puppy on his chest.
Xu Xingzhi was so soft-hearted: "Yes, of course it is."
Meng Chongguang curled up and leaned on Xu Xingzhi's chest: "Chongguang is stupid, he has practiced for a long time over the years, and it is useless. If it is not for the care of his senior brother, he often uses the genius treasure that master gave you to cultivate for me, I am afraid it is the connection pill. Can't do it."
Xu Xingzhi pinched Meng Chongguang's soft face: "Isn't this what senior brother should do? If senior brother doesn't protect you, who else can he protect?"
The word "men" was slightly called Meng Chongguang, and his face darkened, but he quickly recovered: "Senior brother, if you want to choose between me and brother Jiuzhideng, who would you rather stay with?"
Xu Xingzhi couldn't help laughing: "What the hell."
Meng Chongguang was unrelenting, grabbed his front and shook it: "Senior brother, hurry up."
With such a warm little stove leaning against his arms, Xu Xingzhi's body was relieved from the cold, and his sleepiness gradually came up: "...you."
Meng Chongguang's eyes were bright and he asked, "Why?"
"Xiao Deng has been stable since childhood, and he can take care of himself even if he is alone. You..." Xu Xingzhi reached out and patted Meng Chongguang's head, "... a silly boy."
"I'm not stupid." After Meng Chongguang protested, he put his lips against Xu Xingzhi's ear and whispered, "...Senior brother, I have a wish."
With the hot wind blowing his ears, Xu Xingzhi became more and more confused: "... huh?"
"...I want to lock you up." Meng Chongguang turned over boldly, one arm on top of Xu Xingzhi's head, and the other on Xu Xingzhi's chest, "...Only I can see you, only me can see To you. Sometimes when I think of my brother laughing at others, talking to others, hugging others, I feel like I'm going crazy. . . I want to build a good chain to lock up my brother.
Xu Xingzhi wasted a lot today, and he was exhausted. The voices that fell into his ears were echoed in circles. He couldn't hear the meaning of Meng Chongguang's words at all, but he didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "... good boy, When your senior brother is a dog. But if one day the Chongguang skill improves greatly, and you can beat senior brother, senior brother will let you shut up."
Meng Chongguang smiled and showed his little white teeth: "Well, senior brother, we're done."
After coaxing the bear child, Xu Xingzhi was about to fall asleep when he suddenly heard a junior brother shout from outside, "Is senior Xu asleep?"
Without waiting for Xu Xingzhi to wake up, Meng Chongguang made his own decision, stood up, and opened the door directly: "Senior brother is asleep!"
When Xu Xingzhi heard the word "Master", his head was clearer. He put on his clothes and walked to the door, pressing Meng Chongguang's head: "I haven't fallen asleep yet. What's the matter?"
The little junior brother was Qing Jingjun's close attendant. He bowed to Xu Xingzhi and said, "Xu Shixiong, Master Shishu is looking for you, and we have an important business to discuss."
Xu Xingzhi: "It's so late, what's the matter?"
The younger brother replied, "It's about the four-door artifact appreciation conference." He lowered his voice, "Jun Qingjing is drunk again, and the lord of Guangfu is throwing a tantrum at him. Senior brother, hurry up and persuade him. "
Xu Xingzhi sighed deeply: "You wait outside, I'll go after I change my clothes."
The so-called "persuade and persuade" is nothing more than asking Guangfu Jun to change the object of his anger.
After Xu Xingzhi returned to the room, Meng Chongguang asked curiously, "What kind of artifact reward meeting? I haven't heard of it for six years."
Xu Xingzhi replied while changing his clothes: "This appreciation meeting is held every seven years, and it was held the year before you came. At the appreciation meeting, the four gates will put out the four artifacts that they have collected, and have some poetry and wine. Camellia's party. To put it bluntly, it is to show force and make those demons and demons dare not move without authorization and endanger the Quartet."
Meng Chongguang asked, "Which four artifacts are they?"
Xu Xingzhi replied: "Our artifact guarding Fengling Mountain is called 'World Book', Yingtianchuan's is called 'Lie Hun Mirror', Qinglianggu's is called 'Taixu Bow', and Danyang Peak's is 'Clearing Sword'. These are not Did you all memorize it when you were doing your homework?"
Meng Chongguang: "..."
Xu Xingzhi understood: "You didn't do your homework well, did you?"
Meng Chongguang was coy for a while with his hands behind his back, and immediately changed the subject: "I've never seen an artifact showing its power before."
Xu Xingzhi didn't want to pursue him further, and fastened his clothes one by one: "...It's like I've seen it before. There is an artifact town here, and the monsters from all sides will not easily come here, and those artifacts are useless. ."
After that, he opened the door, turned to Meng Chongguang and said, "Keep your house safe, I'll go back when I go."
He stepped out of the temple door, but fell down into the boundless abyss.
Xu Xingzhi fell directly from the empty sky and onto the barren bed.
He sat up straight, his heartbeat was as heavy as a drum, and he lowered his head again, his hands and feet were bound by silver chains, and his body made a clattering sound when he moved.
When he saw the chain, he somehow thought of the phrase "Senior brother, you can shut up" in his memory, and he panicked for no reason.
Turning his eyes again, Xu Xingzhi couldn't bear to look directly when he saw Meng Chongguang sitting at the table.
… Compared to the past, the original owner simply raised a purebred wolf cub.
Hearing the sound of the silver chain, Meng Chongguang knew that Xu Xingzhi was awake.
He stood up and sent the water he just poured to Xu Xingzhi's side: "Brother, drink water."
It was probably because everything I saw in the dream just now was somewhat ambiguous, Xu Xingzhi's mouth was dry, and he hesitated for a moment before taking the water.
As soon as the water cup was touching his lips, he heard Meng Chongguang ask, "Senior brother has been feeling a lot lately, why?"
Xu Xingzhi drank the water while holding the water glass, but did not speak.
Meng Chongguang stared into his eyes and asked, "...Who is there in your brother's dream?"
Xu Xingzhi swallowed a mouthful of water and replied, "I have you."
Meng Chongguang was taken aback: "What did senior brother say?"
As soon as the words came out, Xu Xingzhi himself choked on the water.
This was originally a truth, but it really didn't seem like something that should be said between a man and a man. However, it was strange that Xu Xingzhi said this very naturally, as if he should say such a thing to the person in front of him.
... just like the "warm white hair" he blurted out before he fell asleep.
After thinking about it, Xu Xingzhi could only attribute all this to the fact that the original owner's memory was too strong.
Xu Xingzhi waved his hand and tried to look back: "Nothing, nothing."
He sincerely hoped that Meng Chongguang would be deaf at that moment.
But Meng Chongguang didn't make any extra moves after being silent for a while.
He reached out and took the empty cup in Xu Xingzhi's hand and said, "Brother, let's find the key fragments."
