After returning to Yougu, a period of peaceful days passed, and soon it was the fifth day of November, Leng Yujin's birthday.

Since returning to the valley, Tiying has been preparing a birthday present for Leng Yujin.Because she wanted to surprise the other party, every time she prepared, Tiying locked herself in the study and kept Leng Yujin away.Leng Yujin always followed him, even though she was curious, but Tiying said she would not let him see it, so she really stayed away from the study and didn't want to peek.

On the night of her birthday, Ti Ying made glutinous rice balls stuffed with red dates and a bowl of longevity noodles with two eggs buried in them.After the two had dinner together, Tiying took out the gift that had been prepared for many days.It was a scroll, and Leng Yujin took it and slowly unfolded it, and it showed him dancing a sword in the maple forest.

"Master, I haven't painted for a long time, and my skills are unfamiliar, so I don't draw very well." Ti Ying said a little embarrassed.

In order to draw this picture of dancing swords well, he scrapped countless manuscripts before finally passing his level.He knew that Leng Yujin was a generalist, and he had seen him paint medicinal plants before, and he had a good foundation in painting skills, but he was still not as good as him.Today Tiying gave him this painting as a token of his affection, but it's a pity that he didn't have a lot of time to prepare, otherwise he would have to hone it better.

Leng Yujin looked at herself on the screen.The person in the painting has a very elegant and handsome figure dancing swords, and his face is drawn very delicately. He looks at the people outside the picture, and his expression is a gentleness that he has never seen when looking in the mirror.Since it was painted by Tiying, it is his perspective, and the person I see in the painting is Tiying.

"I didn't even know I would have such an expression." Leng Yujin sighed, raised her eyes to Ti Ying who was sitting beside her, and asked him, "Is I so gentle in your eyes?"

Tiying smiled and replied, "Master, to me, is the warm sun in winter and the cool breeze in summer."

After hearing this, Leng Yujin suddenly felt heat welling up her cheeks, and quickly turned her eyes away, only staring at the picture scroll.

Seeing him avoiding her gaze, Tiying looked carefully at his face and found that he was blushing a little, knowing that he was shy.The two had been in an intimate relationship for several months, and not long ago they drank Hebei wine, but this person reacted to his own words in such a way that Tiying's heart almost melted when he saw it.

But he still wanted to ask Leng Yujin with bad intentions: "What's the matter, am I wrong?"

"...I'm very happy." Leng Yujin replied in this way, raised another hand to hold Tiying, and snuggled up to him, and continued, "To me, Tuer is the bright moon at night."

This time it was replaced by Tiying's face flushed because of a word.

After talking for a while, the two of them cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and Tiying accompanied Leng Yujin to get the copper basin and paper money and incense candles, preparing to pay homage to Leng Yujin's parents in the yard.

Thinking that Leng Yujin didn't like the light of fire, Tiying took the initiative to take the fire pocket, lit a few scraps of paper money for ignition, and put them into the copper basin.Then, together with Leng Yujin, he tore paper money around the brazier.

Leng Yujin read the names of her parents first, and asked the little ghost to take the incense, and then said to the parents in the underworld: "Father, mother. I told you last time that I took in an apprentice named Lin Qi. Do you still remember?" ?"

When Tiying heard him mentioning herself to his parents, she slowed down her breathing and her movements, and listened intently.

"Today he paid homage with me, and these incenses also have his intentions." Leng Yujin said this, paused, and then continued, "I have something to tell you, my son. Lin Qi is also my favorite person. I and him Under the witness of heaven and earth, we have married together by drinking and drinking together. He is very good, if you meet him, you will definitely like him too."

After saying this, Leng Yujin looked away from the burning brazier, looked at Ti Ying, and said to him, "Teacher, come, call your parents."

Tiying felt that his nose was a little sore, he nodded, and while continuing to put the torn paper money into the brazier, he said in a low voice: "Father, mother, I will take good care of him." After that, he felt No, I added, "But usually he takes care of me more..."

Leng Yujin patted his head, smiled at him, and then the two continued to put paper money and incense candles into the brazier.

Suddenly someone knocked on the gate outside the courtyard. The two of them stopped and looked at each other, both a little puzzled.When preparing for the sacrifice, they invited the servants outside the courtyard and told them to go to rest first, it would not be the servants.And it was very late now, if it wasn't urgent, neither Hei Ya nor You Gu Zhao would have sent anyone to look for them.

Leng Yujin asked Tiying to stay where she was, and got up to open the gate of the courtyard by herself.Although Tiying didn't move, her gaze followed Leng Yujin. It was a surprise to see that the person outside the door was a black crow.They had a lot of contacts with You Gu Zhao, You Gu Zhao also came to Xun Pavilion a few times, but it was the first time that Hei Ya came to look for him in person.

"It's so late, what's the matter for the deputy sect master?" Leng Yujin didn't move out of the way, but first asked the other party why he came.

Hei Ya raised a jar of wine in his hand and replied, "This is the sweet-scented osmanthus wine that Brother Bai and Sister Ke like to drink. I thought you would pay homage to them today, so I brought it here."

Leng Yujin blinked.It was a surprise that Black Crow would call out his parents' names.He stared carefully at Black Crow's half-covered face and asked, "Do you know my parents?"

"They saved my life." Black Crow replied, raised his head towards the yard, "Go in and talk."

Leng Yujin made way for him, and at the same time recalled in his mind who among the people his parents had saved could match the black crow.He has an excellent memory, but he only acquired it after two years of autism, and only some fragments of his childhood memories remained.In my impression, his parents had rescued several people from the rivers and lakes, and the last one brought disaster to Leng's family, but that one also died tragically in the wild that year.

According to the rumors in the rivers and lakes, there is only a record of Hei Ya after he followed You Gu Zhao into the valley, but before that it was blank.The year before he appeared in the rivers and lakes, the Leng family exterminated his enemies and died, and Leng's mother committed suicide, and the year before that was the Leng family extermination tragedy, the timing is very coincidental.

Leng Yujin closed the courtyard door, turned around and followed the black crow to the brazier.He carefully looked at the figure of the black crow again, and suddenly remembered a person. He hurriedly stepped forward, took the black crow's arm, and asked in a slightly excited tone, "Are you Uncle Abo?"

When Tiying heard Leng Yujin say the name, she quickly stood up and looked at the black crow, shocked in her heart.

Last year, Leng Yujin told about the misfortune that happened to Leng's family when she was young, and mentioned that there was a man from a foreign land who called himself Abo.On the night of the incident, Abo desperately protected Leng Yujin and his mother from fleeing, and later handed them over to the Sword Fairy in White before leaving, and probably killed those enemies for the Leng family.If Black Crow is really Abo, he will be Leng Yujin's benefactor.

The black crow stopped at the same place, turned around to look at Leng Yujin after a while, hooked the corner of his mouth that was not covered by half face, and sighed: "It's been more than 20 years, you were so young at that time, I didn't expect to recognize you now. I'll come." However, his appearance was completely ruined back then, and he met You Gu Zhao again after two years, but the other party did not recognize him.

"It's really Uncle Abo!" Leng Yujin couldn't restrain the joy of the reunion in her heart at this time, as if she had returned to more than 20 years ago, becoming a child who was always playing with warriors from foreign lands, pulling the black crow to watch go.But when his eyes touched the scar on Crow's half-uncovered chin, his eyes dimmed again.

"What's the matter with your face?" Leng Yujin had a guess in his mind, and he asked, "Shortly after you left, the beasts of the Jinhu Gang died overnight. I heard that there was a person late at night Sneaking into the assassination, although he succeeded, he was hunted down by other people, and disappeared after being seriously injured. Is that person you? Was the injury caused by that sunset?"

Black Crow looked at him as if looking at a close junior, and he replied: "It's me. But you don't need to take it to heart. After I left that year, I encountered some things again, and I have a death wish. But I Tiao Ming was rescued by Brother Changbai, so I felt sorry for him to die like this, so I sneaked into the assassination alone, thinking that I would make money by killing one more person. Unexpectedly, I survived again."

The reason why he didn't recognize Leng Yujin all this time, and didn't come until today when Leng's parents died, was that he didn't want to use what he did to repay his kindness, and let Leng Yujin bear a debt of conscience.After all, he has always wanted Leng Yujin to cure You Guzhao's old heart disease, if he had let Leng Yujin know that he was Abo before, it would be a kindness.Now that You Guzhao's heart is healed, he dared to come to recognize each other.

Leng Yujin heard what he said, but he didn't really take it lightly. He frowned and looked at the scar on the other's chin, and said, "You saved me and my mother, and avenged the Leng family. I appreciate your kindness." I always remember it. Can you let me see what's going on under the mask? Although I haven't studied how to heal the scars, it should take some time to improve."

The black crow waved his hand and refused, "No need, this scar is not a bad thing for me. Thanks to my disfigured face, I was able to gain the favor of the master, who poured all his money into teaching me this unique skill."

His master was a strange man with a strange face. Seeing his disfigurement, he insisted on accepting him as an apprentice. He spent a year teaching him carefully, and finally passed on his life's skills to him, but he ran to the mountains by himself. For a while, I went to live in seclusion as a hunter.Moreover, because of the ruined appearance, You Gu Zhao didn't recognize him, and now he doesn't want to cause any trouble.

Seeing that Leng Yujin seemed to want to persuade him again, Hei Ya directly unsealed the wine jar and said, "Okay, first let me send some wine to Brother Changbai and Sister Ke to drink."

When it came to paying homage to his parents, Leng Yujin didn't try to persuade him.He threw some paper money into the brazier, and said to his parents in the underworld, "Mother and Dad, Uncle Abo is here too, and he wants to give you sweet-scented osmanthus wine."

Tiying had already run to the kitchen to get a few bowls, and helped Black Crow to pour the wine. Two of them were placed next to the brazier, and then the three of them each shared a bowl.Because Tiying and Leng Yujin didn't usually drink much, they only poured a small amount.

Hei Ya first raised his bowl, signaled to the sky, and said: "Respect Bai Ge and Sister Ke, the Leng family has practiced medicine for generations, and their benevolence is admirable."

Tiying and Leng Yujin also raised their bowls to signal to the sky, and the three of them drank all the wine in their bowls.Then Leng Yujin poured the wine from the two bowls beside the brazier into the ground and gave it to her parents in the underworld.After that, the three of them put the paper money and joss sticks into the copper basin and burned them little by little.

After the sacrifice, Hei Ya kept the remaining half jar of wine, and said to Leng Yujin: "Now the door master's heart is healed, you and Lin Qi can leave or stay as you like."

Leng Yujin has his own set of principles, and replied: "Three years are three years after the agreement."

The black crow shook his head slightly, and replied: "Okay, you can do whatever you want. If you need anything, just let me know." Then he looked at Tiying again, and said softly, "You too, don't see outsiders. .”

Tiying nodded, watching Leng Yujin send the black crow out the door.

The author has something to say:

This is to meet the parents!After that, I will meet Leng’s master and Tiying’s parents, hehehe XD
