Chapter 223 Ye Xingzhou Locusts Passing Through
"Ye Xingzhou, I know."
Meng Zhi clenched the square box in her hand, lowered her head, and rested her forehead on Ye Xingzhou's shoulder.
"I'm just a little tired."
Junior brother rarely shows weakness. The last quarrel was the first time, and now the death of a relative is the second time.
I have pain in my heart, but I can't express it out loud.
Ye Xingzhou looked up and saw the sky was shrouded in twilight.
"Junior brother, let's go to the roof and look at the stars, just like we did on the flying boat last time."
Ye Xingzhou held Meng Zhi's sleeve and walked in front, and Meng Zhi followed Ye Xingzhou's footsteps and walked behind.
The moonlight was bright, and the shadows of the two people lengthened from short to long with the light.
The maturity of the mind is the growth of the shadow.
When I was young, I didn’t know how the world works. Only when I grew up did I realize how much I had missed.
Little adults, please don't dwell on the pain, but stride forward and grow towards the sun.
Ye Xingzhou lay on the eaves, which hurt his back a little, but it did not affect his stargazing.
"Ye Xingzhou, I have always been a selfish and stupid person."
Meng Zhi looked at the starry sky and said softly.
Ye Xingzhou gently elbowed him, stopping him from belittling himself. "What nonsense are you talking about? Junior brother, you don't know how good you are."
"Junior brother, you are the person I trust the most."
"Besides, you are my brother's spiritual support."
Ye Xingzhou's voice was beside his ears, completely serious, without a trace of joking.
Meng Zhi was stunned for a moment, then lowered his eyes.
"Ye Xingzhou, why? Why do you think I'm good?"
"Because you're a good kid."
After that, both sides were speechless.
Only the moonlight shines on people and the insects chirp clearly.
Meng Zhi moved half an inch closer to Ye Xingzhou.
The scattered hair touches and interweaves with each other, like an ink-stained scroll, depicting the night.
A hand gently grabbed the corner of Ye Xingzhou's sleeve.
The fingertips accidentally brushed against the back of the hand, leaving a lingering warm touch that seemed to burn the fingertips.
"Ye Xingzhou, I'll show you the fish tail after we return to the sect."
Ye Xingzhou's sleepiness disappeared in an instant, and his eyes lit up instantly, "Junior brother, you said this, don't try to trick me."
Meng Zhi avoided Ye Xingzhou's gaze, feeling a little uncomfortable. "When have I ever coaxed you?"
"That's right." Ye Xingzhou laughed foolishly and asked, "Junior brother, why did you suddenly want to show me the fish tail?"
Meng Zhi raised his hand and covered his face with his arm, blocking most of his features.
Ye Xingzhou only saw his lips opening and closing as he spoke.
"Why are you asking so many questions? Do you still want to watch it?"
Ye Xingzhou immediately shut up, "No more questions, but you have to show me."
Meng Zhi nodded.
The night was too bright, covering the figures of the two people, and it was too light, so close that Ye Xingzhou could not see the red ears of Meng Zhi.
Ye Xingzhou asked, "Junior brother, are you feeling better?"
Meng Zhi: "Much better."
Ye Xingzhou smiled and said, "I'm feeling much better too."
It would be best if Meng Zhi could figure it out.
Ye Xingzhou propped himself up on the tiles and sat up, rubbing his aching back. "Junior brother, go back to sleep and gather your energy for the upcoming fierce battle."
The rooftop view is good, but it hurts my back.
Ye Xingzhou jumped off the roof.
"Junior brother, I haven't seen what your room looks like yet. I'll have a good chance to see it before I go to bed."
If there were many treasures in the house, he would put them all in storage bags and keep them for his junior brother.
My grandfather said that the Meng family is in decline.
It is really not worthwhile to leave it to Meng Qianhan, so Ye Xingzhou prepared for a rainy day and thought about emptying the Meng family's house in the next few days.
Meng Zhi pushed open the door.
Meng Zhi's residence was as big as a row house in Yantian Sect. Any decoration of his could be exchanged for a lot of money, which made him very extravagant.
Living in a house like this and sleeping on a three-meter-wide bed, Ye Xingzhou could lie there forever.
"Junior brother, do you mind if I help you keep some valuables?"
"Whatever." Meng Zhi spread the quilt without raising his head.
Ye Xingzhou was very excited when he got the approval.
The golden nanmu table was taken away, the golden silk curtains were taken away, and everything with gold was taken away.
Ye Xingzhou was busy pretending.
Meng Zhi raised his eyes and was about to call someone over when he saw that there was only a bed and a few empty bookshelves in the room, and even the bed curtains had been pulled away.
Ye Xingzhou: Locusts are passing through.
Ye Xingzhou's eyes were already fixed on the silk quilt in Meng Zhi's hand.
Meng Zhi spread out a fold of the quilt and handed it to Ye Xingzhou.
"Do you want silk sheets?" Meng Zhi asked.
Ye Xingzhou nodded frantically, "Yes! I want them all!"
Meng Zhi reached out and pulled up the bed sheet, folded it in a few seconds, and stuffed it all into Ye Xingzhou's hands.
Ye Xingzhou was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. "Junior brother, you really understand me so well."
"I'll have someone buy new ones tomorrow."
Meng Zhi's expression didn't change at all. He took out a quilt from his storage bag and covered himself with it.
This quilt seems a bit narrow on a three-meter bed.
Just as Ye Xingzhou picked up the pillow and prepared to move closer, a sword emerged from the pillowcase.
There was a clear clang sound.
Meng Zhi raised his eyelids and took a look, without any expression, and took out another pillow.
Ye Xingzhou looked at the sword and said, "Junior Brother, this sword couldn't be the one you used to chase Shui Yujun away."
"No, it's used to suppress evil." Meng Zhi lied calmly.
Ye Xingzhou said "oh", lifted the quilt and lay down next to Meng Zhi, sighing comfortably.
"A big quilt is still more substantial."
As soon as Ye Xingzhou pulled the corner of the quilt, his fingers touched a hole.
"Eh? Why is there a hole here?"
Meng Zhi: "Ren Wangzhu once dreamed of gnawing on a chicken leg, and it was broken."
Its bite force is comparable to that of a hyena.
Ye Xingzhou covered himself comfortably with a large quilt, lay on a mattress of moderate firmness and closed his eyes.
Just as Meng Zhi was about to close her eyes, Ye Xingzhou spoke again.
"Junior Brother——"
"Okay." Meng Zhi anticipated what Ye Xingzhou was going to say, "Use the mattress tonight, and pack it in the storage bag tomorrow."
Ye Xingzhou gave a thumbs up, "Well done, little junior brother."
"Sleep."
Meng Zhi slapped his hand away, pulled the quilt over her head, and fell asleep.
Early the next morning, Meng Zhi called the servant.
As soon as the servant entered the room, he was shocked to see that the room was empty except for a bed, and the mattress was missing.
Is this a burglar?
"Go and buy what's missing in the house."
The golden basin for washing face was also taken away. Meng Zhi squatted by the well, washing his face with a small broken basin in his hand.
The servant was embarrassed and said, "Young Master, I have to report to the head of the family first."
"Go." Meng Zhi was very calm.
The servant felt an inexplicable chill down his spine.
I always feel that the young master is so sad because of the loss of a loved one that he has gone mad quietly.
The servant ran to Meng Qianhan and knelt down respectfully.
Meng Qianhan was drinking tea. "Is Meng Zhi acting strangely today?"
The servant shook his head and nodded again, "Returning to the master, the young master is not angry, it's just, it's just..."
Meng Qianhan: "Speak."
The servant said, "He was so sad that he cleared out the things in the house and asked for more things."
Meng Qianhan raised his hand without caring, "Just give him whatever he wants. There's no need to report such trivial matters to me."
"Yes, Patriarch."
