Although Youshu is young, she has seen many big scenes, and quickly got rid of her fears and worked hard to survive. He raised his hand again and slammed into the monk's eyes, and the other party immediately released his hand, covering his eyes and screaming. Taking advantage of this gap, You Shu pulled out her legs and ran wildly. She looked back in a hurry, but saw that the monk didn't care about the broken eyeball at all, and quickly chased after him. Thinking too, this body is not his, even if it hurts, he can endure it for the flesh and blood of people outside the world.
You Shu has short legs, how can the speed be comparable to that of an adult, and he is about to be caught up, so he can't help but secretly complain, knowing that Li Gui is so relentless and pervasive, he should be by his master's side all the time. However, it was too late to regret it now, even if he put on his wings, he would not be able to fly back in an instant.
"Help! Master, help!" You Shu shouted at the top of his voice, but this place was very far from the Buddhist temple, and the path was very remote. Not to mention the young people, even the monks in the temple were nowhere to be seen.
Hearing the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer behind, You Shu faintly felt hopeless, but at the time of the crisis, a sound of breaking the air suddenly came, followed by two screams. Youshu looked back and found that the monk possessed by the ghost had collapsed to the ground, with a blood hole on each of his left and right legs, apparently injured by a hidden weapon. Who can help me? Why do you hide in the dark and refuse to show up? You Shu didn't dare to stop, she ran and thought quickly, seeing the arch of the small courtyard so close at hand, she almost cried with joy.
He knows that although he has a bizarre background, he will never be protected in secret. His father didn't have the heart, and his mother didn't have the strength. After thinking about it, the only object to be protected by these people hiding in the dark is the master. Yes, he carries dragon spirit, and it is reasonable to have a few dark guards.
Do the math, this is the first time the master has saved his life? When You Shu stepped into the courtyard door, she pondered deeply gratefully.
At the same time, the boy also got news from the secret guard that Shu was attacked, and he was pushing open the door and hurried out, colliding with the young boy who was panicking. As soon as she fell into Sandalwood's faint warm embrace, You Shu was completely relieved, her limbs wrapped around the boy's legs so hard that she couldn't tear it off. No longer apart, unless the Specter is destroyed, he will never be separated from the master in this life. Thinking like this, he hugged tighter and pressed his pale little face to the teenager's thigh.
"It's alright, don't be afraid if you have Shu, it's alright now." The boy bent down and hugged the shivering young child into his arms and patted it.
You Shu didn't gnaw, feeling that she was being lifted off the ground, and hurriedly hugged the teenager's neck and buried her face in the other's neck. The safest place in the world is really only here.
The teenager took the frightened young child back into the house and found Jinchuang medicine to bandage his bloody ears. Ah Da and Ah Er were ordered to interrogate the monk, but they learned that the other party had died suddenly and inexplicably.
Who are the monks coming for? Shun or yourself? The young man really wanted to understand this question, but after more than half a month of investigation, nothing suspicious was found, and it was thrown away after a long time.
Youshu was quite frightened this time, and even nibbled at a dozen wowotou before she recovered. Since then, she has been clinging to the boy, following where she goes, like a little tail. The young man didn't get bored either, he took care of him everywhere, and even taught him to read and write by himself. The relationship between the two is getting better and better, and they don't look like master and servant, but like father and son.
Although it's safe to stay by the boy's side, Youshu is not at ease when you put your life in the hands of others. Whenever he was free, he began to think about how to kill Li Gui. At present, he has not discovered Li Gui's weakness, but instead let the other party grab a handle on him. The other party even dared to break into the temple, and even killed a monk, so it can be seen that he is not afraid of those clay statues of gods and Buddhas. There may be many things in this world that can restrain him, but the only one Shu knows about is the young man.
Therefore, the key to killing Li Gui is still the young man. It would be great if he could use his dragon energy for his own use. Thinking of this, You Shu's thoughts opened instantly. He has never studied dragon energy, but the so-called dragon energy is, in the final analysis, a kind of power, no different from supernatural powers. Ability can be captured, so can dragon energy.
To capture the power, you only need to dig out the core of the power user and absorb it. What about the dragon energy? You know, the teenager is just an ordinary person, and he has no crystal nucleus. Do you want to drink his blood and eat his flesh? Like the ghosts deal with themselves? You Shu shook her head frantically, completely dismissing this terrible idea. He may have no morals and lower limits, and his three views are slightly crooked, but he has always pursued the code of conduct of repaying kindness and revenge. The young man did not hurt him, on the contrary, he saved him from fire and water several times. He would never do something like murdering a teenager to save his life.
You Shu thought hard for several days, and finally suppressed the idea of capturing the dragon energy. He asked the boy for a jade pendant that he carried with him, and wanted to know if an utensil was placed by the boy's side for a long time, whether it would be contaminated with dragon energy and have the effect of exorcising evil spirits and self-defense. But the fact is that he was almost attacked by the Specter as soon as he walked out of the courtyard with Yu Pei. Fortunately, he was already prepared, and when he felt a gust of wind blowing over, he immediately opened his throat and called out to the master, frightening the Specter away.
After that, You Shu no longer dared to take her own life to play, and even more dared not take a step away from the young man.
Time flies, time flies, and ten years have passed before you know it. There is a milk doll with short hands and short legs, who has grown into a handsome young man, and the tall and straight young man is now more and more handsome. Expensive.
The incense in Kaiyuan Temple is still so sluggish, and the houses in the temple have been in disrepair for a long time, and they are already dilapidated. The small courtyard where Shu and her master lived was unattended, and even the shingles were covered with wormwood. Birds hid in the wormwood to build their nests and lay eggs. The chirping sound is a bit wild.
On this day, Ji Changye, the boy from the beginning, was standing behind the desk practicing calligraphy. He has an elegant temperament and a gentle face, but a stroke of wild grass has the power to swallow mountains and rivers, and has the potential to shock all directions. Ah Da took a closer look and found the words "turn the tide".
Ji Changye put down the brush and looked at the corner habitually, but saw that You Shu was holding a candied fruit in her mouth, pushing up a small bulge on her cheeks, and her face that had never receded from the baby fat became more and more funny and cute. But what's even more amusing is his actions. He actually held an embroidery needle, and skillfully sewed clothes through the needle and thread. If he was wearing a colorful skirt, he looked like a little girl.
Ji Changye pressed his fist to his lips and smiled lowly before beckoning him to come over, "You Shu, see if you have grown taller."
Shu Shu put down her needle and thread, walked to the bookcase and stood still. He has grown up, but he still needs to look up when he looks at his master. He still has to tiptoe to wear a hair crown for the other party. In this life, he is afraid that there is no hope of catching up. With his back against the bookcase, he stood up straight and asked hopefully, "Have you grown taller?"
Ji Changye made a mark on the bookcase with a dagger, and nodded, "It's an inch taller, not bad."
"Only one inch?" Youshu's bright eyes dimmed, she turned around and gestured for herself, and had to admit this cruel fact.
"One year grows an inch, there are still five years to grow, maybe it can reach my ears." Ji Changye rubbed the young man's soft black hair, his face full of tender affection. Feeding a milk doll carefully into a beautiful and unparalleled teenager, although the satisfaction is not as good as the joy of secretly stirring up the world, but it is also a different taste. If you get all the gratitude and love from each other while feeding, it will be even more difficult to let go.
Ji Changye was a little addicted, so when he learned that his layout had begun to work, he didn't know how to choose. He found an excuse to send Youshu away, frowned and said, "What's wrong with Shangjing?"
"This is a letter that has just arrived. The empress dowager and the emperor are starting a game over the territorial issue of the seventh prince. I think you will be recalled to Beijing in the near future." Ah Da presented a secret letter.
Ji Changye opened the letter and read it carefully, not only did he not stretch his brows, but wrinkled even tighter.
Ah Da didn't know what he was worrying about, but he wanted to poke at his sore spot, "Master, when will we send Youshu back to the Wang family? If you speak up, he will definitely take care of you. Wang Xiangqian is now the prince's confidant, if he is brought down. , it will definitely be able to re-inflict the crown prince's lineage."
To train a spy, and then send the other party to his enemy, this kind of thing is sparse and common to Ji Changye, and there is no need to worry about it. But when it was Shu's turn, he couldn't make up his mind. Youshu is indeed very smart, especially in reading and writing. He can learn from one thing and draw inferences from one case, but he is as simple as a blank sheet of paper when it comes to the world of people. He never knew how to hide his emotions, and he didn't know what it meant to be a sinister human being. He sent him back to the Wang family. Facing the secrecy of the back house and the situation of the court, he became scarred and full of vicissitudes in all kinds of conspiracies and calculations. Reluctant, really reluctant.
He rubbed his temples and sighed, "Wait, let me think about it."
Ah Da didn't dare to persuade him anymore when he saw that the master's expression was wrong.
In the past ten years, the ghosts have come to disturb you from time to time, which has greatly increased Youshu's vigilance. As long as there is a trace of strangeness in the house, he can immediately detect it, so he gradually realizes that there are more than 100 secret guards hidden inside and outside this seemingly desolate temple.
Mother Song and Bai Shao came to see him every few days and brought news from the outside world. He knew that the third son of the emperor was exiled from Liangzhou due to his personal moral loss. Although he did not cut off the jade, he was ordered to stay in the temple forever to cultivate in order to redeem himself. But what the emperor's third son did wrong, and which temple he was assigned to, no one knows.
The third son of the emperor is the only direct son of the Empress Yuan, who should have inherited the great lineage and become the heir. Fifteen years ago, the Yuan Dynasty passed away. Eleven years ago, the third son of the emperor was exiled.
After a little thought, Youshu knew that his master must be the third son of the emperor. Youshu looked a little dumb, but she was actually extremely smart. She learned from daily clues that her master was not as bad as rumored, let alone a useless person. Recently, there have been frequent dark guards coming and going to the small courtyard. From time to time, I see carrier pigeons hanging around outside the window. Shu has a vague feeling that the master may be returning to Beijing.
