Inside Guishui City during the Ming Dynasty.
Guishui City is surrounded by mountains and rivers. There are beautiful mountains to the west of the city, and a beautiful meandering Li River runs between the mountains and the city.
At this moment, Qin Yu and Li'er were walking on a street in Guishui City. The two were intimate with each other, laughing and talking about the buildings and scenic spots.
"Li'er, have you ever wanted to try candied haws on a stick?" Qin Yu saw a candied haws of apples seller in the distance, and when his heart moved, he said to Li'er with a smile.
Li'er nodded happily.
Qin Yu smiled and went to buy candied haws. At this time, there were just two candied haws left. Qin Yu gave a piece of silver and said: "Give me both candied haws. There is no need to change the money."
The lady selling candied haws suddenly lit up: Silver!
Usually when buying cheap snacks like candied haws on a stick, most of them use copper plates. You can buy them with silver and you don’t have to change them. This lady really made a small fortune this time.
"Hey, here you go, sir." The aunt enthusiastically pulled out two candied haws.
Qin Yu took the candied haws and turned around to leave. But at this moment, he suddenly felt resistance on his feet. Qin Yu turned around and looked - a little boy about four or five years old was holding Qin Yu's calf, looking pitifully at Qin Yu's hand. The candied haws on the table made a thin glistening line of saliva flow from his mouth.
"Uh..." Qin Yu didn't know what this little boy wanted to do at this moment.
"Brother, I want to eat candied haws on a stick. I have money. Can I exchange it with you?" The little boy's watery eyes were full of candied haws, and he was holding two copper plates in his little hands.
"Xiaoyu, stop making trouble." A girl in plain clothes quickly pulled the little boy over, and then apologized to Qin Yu: "Sir, the kid is not sensible, please don't be angry."
The girl had just given the child two coins to buy candied haws on a stick. Naturally, she saw with her own eyes that Qin Yu casually took out a piece of silver to buy candied haws on a stick. Moreover, looking at his imposing manner, the girl was sure that the young man in front of her had a much higher status than the city lord.
"Brother Qin Yu, what's wrong?" Li'er also came over.
Qin Yu turned around and smiled at Li'er: "It's nothing. It's just a kid who wants to eat candied haws. I originally wanted to share a bunch with you, but forget it. You eat one bunch and give the other bunch to the kid."
Qin Yu lowered his head as he spoke, looked at the cute little boy with a smile, and handed a bunch of candied haws to the little boy: "Your name is Xiaoyu, right? Come." The little boy's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Master, no need, the little kid is greedy..." the girl said hurriedly, pulling the little boy who wanted to eat candied haws. The little boy immediately stopped moving when his mother pulled him, he just puffed his mouth and had big eyes. Still staring at the candied haws, tears welled up in his eyes.
Qin Yu smiled: "It's okay, Xiaoyu, come here."
The little boy looked back at his mother, and seeing that her mother didn't stop him, he excitedly took the candied haws of sugarcane and said, "Thank you, big brother, big brother, I'll give you these two copper coins."
"No, the candied haws on a stick is for you." Qin Yu said with a smile.
"No." The little boy looked like an adult. "My mother said you can't just take other people's things. That's wrong. Big brother, take it. Two copper coins can buy a lot of things. You can buy sweets and meat buns."
"No need." To be honest, Qin Yu fell in love with this little boy.
"No." The little boy was very stubborn.
The girl understands the temper of ordinary princes and grandsons, how can she accept two copper coins?
"Xiaoyu, big brother said he would give it to you, but you can just keep the coins yourself." The young woman said quickly.
The little boy who had been stubborn just now couldn't help but look at his mother with wide black eyes after hearing his mother's words. After a moment, he nodded and took back the two coins.
…
At this moment, the young man in white robe had arrived at Guishui City.
"It's really a beautiful scenery surrounded by mountains and rivers." The young man in white robe arrived at the street where Qin Yu and Li'er were in a few steps. Other pedestrians did not notice this sudden appearance of the young man in white robe, as if he was originally there. This is where men should be.
When the young man in white robe saw Qin Yu and Li'er together, a thunderbolt flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled and said, "Cousin!"
Li'er, who was playing with the little boy, heard his body tremble, and immediately turned around, with a look of shock on his face: "Cousin!"
Qin Yu also turned around.
cousin? cousin?
Qin Yu looked at the young man in white robe in front of him. Is the man in front of him Li'er's cousin? He knew that Li'er belonged to a special ethnic group. If the man in white robe was really Li'er's cousin, he should also belong to that ethnic group.
"Cousin, how long has it been since you and Uncle Lan were wandering around? My uncle is almost angry." The man in white robe looked at Li'er lovingly and said.
"Dad is angry?" Li'er was surprised.
"This is my uncle's handwriting. See it for yourself." The young man in white robe waved his hand, and a golden light shot towards Li'er. Li'er stretched out his hand, and a golden scroll-like object appeared in Li'er's hand.
Li'er unfolded it and looked slightly pale.
"Cousin, do you have to go back right away?" Li'er found it difficult to accept.
The young man in the white robe frowned and said: "Cousin, what my uncle gave is a handwriting, not a simple sentence. He has given a handwriting, so you should know that my uncle is really angry. Can anyone disobey my uncle's order? "
Li'er stood uneasy, his brows filled with worry.
"I'm going to find Uncle Lan." Li'er gritted his teeth and said.
The young man in white robe frowned slightly, and then sighed: "Okay, cousin, don't be willful. Uncle Lan doesn't listen to my uncle very much, but do you want Uncle Lan and uncle to confront each other over such a trivial matter? What's more? , my uncle is not only extremely powerful, but he is also the king of your clan. Can anyone disobey the king’s order?”
"Li'er, what's wrong? What happened?" Qin Yu, who was listening to the two men talking, also felt that something was wrong.
The young man in white robe frowned slightly: "Li'er? Who are you? Is that what you called Li'er!"
"Cousin, why are you with a mortal? Could it be that Uncle Lan asked you to do so?" A trace of anger flashed in the eyes of the young man in white robe.
Qin Yu was shocked. If he saw it correctly, a bolt of lightning flashed in the young man's eyes just now.
Lightning in the eyes, is it possible?
"If you let your uncle know that you are with a mortal, you will know the consequences. Then don't blame your cousin for not persuading you." The young man in white robe glanced at Qin Yu coldly.
That look was like the emperor of a country looking down at the beggar on the street.
"No. I just met him and I think he is more interesting." Li'er said with a smile.
interesting?
All of a sudden Qin Yu felt that his heart was completely cold.
"That's not right." Qin Yu was not a fool. He was only affected if he was in the middle of the game. He immediately realized that he and Li'er had known each other for such a long time, how could they call it 'just now'.
"Let me introduce you. This is my cousin Zhou Xian. My cousin is very powerful, at least much better than me." Li'er said with a smile to Qin Yu.
"Cousin, this is my friend Qin Yu who I met here. Although his skills are low, he is still a very good person." Li'er suddenly said angrily: "Cousin, don't bully him, otherwise I will be very angry."
"Okay, of course I won't bully him." Zhou Xian said with a faint smile, his cold eyes just glanced at Qin Yu. Obviously Zhou Xian didn't look down on Qin Yu's strength at all.
"Cousin, don't waste your time. My uncle is already very angry. The moment you open the manuscript, he will know that you have read it. You should go back immediately, otherwise my uncle will be angry and put you in solitary confinement. It will probably be useless for me to plead for mercy then. ." Zhou Xian said with concern.
Li'er bit her lip and then walked towards Qin Yu.
"Qin Yu, I'm going back. Goodbye."
Just a few words.
At this moment, Li'er's voice sounded in Qin Yu's mind.
"Brother Qin Yu, don't be angry. I can't let others know about our relationship now. If you let others know, you will definitely die!" Li'er's tone sounded anxious.
Qin Yu was not a reckless man, and he knew immediately that Li'er had his reasons.
"Brother Qin Yu, my father is the king, the king of the clan. I cannot disobey his orders, and... if some people know that I like you, other than my father, others may kill you. "
Qin Yu was startled.
what happened?
He recalled what Uncle Lan said to him for the first time. He was strictly told not to fall in love with Li'er, otherwise he would die if he did. It was only later that he was allowed to be with Li'er.
Qin Yu never understood why Uncle Lan initially said that falling in love with Li'er was the reason for his death. At this moment, Qin Yu seemed to understand.
"But Brother Qin Yu, I promise, I will find a way to fix everything when I go back. No matter what, I will be with you as soon as possible. No one can stop us. But there are many obstacles now, and I must find a way. You have to Wait for me, listen, don't communicate with my spiritual consciousness, my cousin can easily detect your spiritual consciousness transmission." Li'er said anxiously.
Qin Yu could only endure the inability to communicate with his spiritual sense.
"If Uncle Lan hadn't used his magical power, other tribesmen would have known about you and me. With Uncle Lan's help, there is hope for us to be together. I will work hard, and you must work hard too. The higher your skill, the better , then the greater the possibility of us being together!" Brother Qin Yu, remember, I will never be with anyone else. Even if I can't change everything in the clan, I can still not get married. I will always Wait for you. "
At this moment, Zhou Xian's voice sounded: "Cousin, it's time to go back. My uncle is still waiting for you."
"Okay, I'll leave now." Li'er turned around and said with a smile, then waved his hand towards the sky, and suddenly a black hole appeared in the sky, as if the space was shattered.
"Li'er." Qin Yu suddenly felt the pain in his heart and couldn't help but said.
Li'er flew up and looked at Qin Yu.
Qin Yu also looked at Li'er.
"Brother Qin Yu, I'm leaving. I'm very happy with you for a while, and my heart is free and happy. Before I leave, I want to say the words that I have always buried in my heart, the words that I have never said before - I , I, you." Li'er's voice was very slow and soft, as if she was whispering in her ears.
Qin Yu opened his mouth several times but no words came out.
How much he wanted to say "I love you" to Li'er, but he couldn't. He knew that Zhou Xian in front of him could easily understand other people's spiritual sound transmissions.
He didn't dare to communicate with his spiritual sense, and he didn't dare to speak.
I saw Li'er looking like an angel, with a faint cyan light shining on his body, and he entered the black hole directly. After a moment, the hole disappeared again, and Li'er seemed to have never appeared.
"Big brother, where is the big sister?" The little boy eating candied haws on a stick asked Qin Yu in confusion.
The mortals present didn't know what was going on, and they didn't even see the scene where Li'er flew away just now.
"Sister, she's back home." Qin Yu looked at the little boy and tried his best to smile.
Qin Yu felt pain in his heart at this moment, but there was absolute determination deep in his heart! Because he knew that Li'er loved him, as long as he knew this, it was enough.
"Qin Yu, right? How did you and my cousin meet?" Zhou Xian said with a calm smile.
Just from the moment when Li'er raised his hand and left through the air, Qin Yu knew that this mysterious group was so powerful that they could even easily detect the sound transmission from their spiritual consciousness.
"We just met by chance. Li'er has a very good temper. By the way, brother Zhou Xian, what kind of ethnic group are you talking about?" Qin Yu looked confused.
But at this moment, Qin Yu was howling with anger in his heart. With Li'er gone like this, could he not be in pain, anger or sadness? However, he must endure it! ! ! You also have to pretend to look like you are now.
Who can know the pain and anger in my heart?
"Li'er, Zhou Xian?" A hint of sarcasm appeared on Zhou Xian's face, "Boy, you are a mortal, you cannot call me Li'er, and similarly, you cannot call me my name Zhou Xian. "
Qin Yu's heart skipped a beat.
"I don't know why my cousin is willing to chat with you, but... with my cousin's status, you should be proud of being with you these days. But... from today on, you are not allowed to say 'Li' Son, you are not allowed to call me by my name, you know?" Zhou Xian said with a smile.
Qin Yu felt angry in his heart.
"Angry? Alas, mortals are mortals. That's right. Just like no matter how much you talk to an ant, he can't understand the human world. You... can't understand what I mean either." Zhou Xian's gaze remained the same. It was so cold and the tone was still so gentle.
"Li'er, call your cousin by her first name. To be honest, you make me a little jealous, especially when a mortal calls your cousin by her first name, which makes me even more jealous. However, I shouldn't argue with you, but... with your wisdom You still can’t understand my existence, well, consider it a gift from me to you, a mortal, to let you feel the tip of the iceberg of my power.”
At this moment, a thunderbolt flashed through Zhou Xian's eyes again!
Qin Yu's heart skipped a beat: He showed murderous intent this week.
