The room was quiet and silent, the surrounding environment and Xie An's body temperature made Xie Shuci feel extremely at ease.

There was even a moment when Xie Shuci thought leisurely, if one day he really bent over and fell in love with the little blind man, it would not be completely without reason.

After all, who can bear a man who looks beautiful and can bring him a sense of security.

Forget it, what do you think about these things? The little blind man is still young.

Not long after, the waiter knocked on the door and led someone to set up a bathtub and put hot water in the room.

Xie Shuci asked them to boil another bucket of hot water, and both he and Xie An would take a bath.

After the people left, Xie Shuci took off his blood-stained clothes, and when he was about to continue taking off his underwear, he found that Xie An was standing by the screen and did not leave.

Xie Shuci paused, "Xie An?"

Xie An raised his head, showing doubts.

Xie Shuci reminded: "I'm going to take a bath."

Xie An didn't seem to understand what he meant, his expression became more and more puzzled, and his lips moved, "So?"

Xie Shuci: "..."

Yes!

Xie Shuci patted his head, but the little blind man couldn't see, why is he being pretentious here? Even if the little blind man can see, what's wrong with two big men looking at each other? In the modern big bathhouse, a group of people take a bath together.

Probably Xie An's embrace gave Xie Shuci a lot of comfort, Xie Shuci's mood recovered a bit, and he joked: "Then what, why don't we wash together? We can also rub each other's backs or something?"

Xie An returned him with a half-smile expression.

Xie Shuci followed with a sneer, he was only joking, and now let him and the little blind man be naked. Seeing each other naked, he couldn't tell what kind of guilt he would have.

Anyway, Xie An couldn't see, Xie Shuci didn't make too much effort, and took off his inner clothes.

Xie Shuci originally came from a good family background. His parents worked abroad all the year round, and there was a nanny who took care of his daily life. Xie Shuci is a serious man with ten fingers that do not touch Yangchun water. His skin is white and tender, and he looks like an egg. like. The blood accidentally splashed on it is like a few red plums falling in the snow.

With such a fragile and pure body, people can't help but destroy it a little bit, leaving something of their own on him.

Xie An leaned against the screen, in front of him was Xie Shuci's back, a little itchiness spread on the tip of his teeth, he pressed his teeth tightly, lowered his head slightly, his expression was gloomy.

Xie Shuci didn't know what he was thinking, and strode directly into the tub, the scorching water made his movements pause for a moment, and the swaying water droplets splashed on Xie Shuci's body, wet the little flower on his waist. cinnabar nevus.

Fortunately, Xie Shuci quickly adapted and sat in.

The proper temperature of the water relieved Xie Shuci's physical and mental fatigue, and he couldn't help but let out a comfortable sigh, resting his head on the edge of the tub, throwing his arms to his sides, and slowly closed his eyes.

Who is the Exorcist?

Why do you want to make a deal with Shagou and the others?

What are the conditions? Is it their fate?

Why does the silly dog ​​say that warding off evil spirits can help him?

Xie Shuci frowned involuntarily, and after a while, he heard footsteps approaching.

He opened his eyes in a daze, and saw Xie An walking slowly behind him. He seemed to want to determine the location of Xie Shuci, so he stretched out his hand to feel for it.

Xie An's fingertips lightly touched Xie Shuci's left shoulder, and Xie Shuci looked up at him without making a sound to stop him or remind him.

"Thank you letter?"

Xie Shuci saw his lips opening and closing, calling his name, for some reason, Xie Shuci stared at him blankly, but still didn't speak.

Xie An's long eyelashes were drooping, but he didn't hear a response, so he tightened his lips, put his palm on the skin of his left arm, and slowly moved upwards.

While moving, his fingers landed on the scar on Xie Shuci's left arm. Perhaps because he felt that this piece of skin was different from other places, he frowned, as if confirming it, and touched it for a while.

There was a tingling sensation on the scar, and Xie Shuci's arm twitched uncontrollably. Xie An pursed his lips, covered Xie Shuci's face with his big hand, and circled his fingers around his eyes. The faint smell of blood was mixed with the hazy fragrance of sleeves, and it filled his nose without warning.

"What are you doing?" Xie Shuci's voice was not as lively as before, it sounded lazy and tired.

Through the little blind man's fingers, Xie Shuci saw him move his lips and said: "Why did the arm hurt?"

After confirming that Xie Shuci's eyes were open, Xie An wanted to withdraw his hand, but Xie Shuci caught off guard and bit one of his fingers.

The teeth were not strong, like a puppy grinding their teeth, but Xie An paused when he pulled back.

Xie Shuci took a bite and then let go of his teeth. He stared at Xie An twice. The latter didn't say anything, but withdrew his hand calmly.

Xie Shuci smiled silently, glanced at the scar on his left arm, and said, "If I tell you, if you dare to laugh at me, you will die!"

Xie An lowered his eyes and smiled, shaking his head.

Xie Shuci looked far away and recalled: "When I was about seven or eight years old, I always thought that I was actually a great hero in the world, and there were thousands of people in the world waiting for me to save, so I bought it. Bring a very heavy knife back to practice..."

As he spoke, Xie Shuci couldn't help but laugh first.

"In the end, I didn't expect it to be so heavy, and I couldn't hold it steadily. When the knife fell, it hit my arm..."

Xie Shuci narrowed his eyes, saw the corner of the little blind man's mouth could not help laughing, threw a handful of bath water on him, "Don't make fun of me!"

Xie An quickly restrained his smile, and shook his head to signal that he would stop smiling.

Only then did Xie Shuci snort in satisfaction, compared the muscles on his arms which were almost nonexistent, and showed off: "Did you know that the scars on a man's body are medals, look, how masculine it is!"

Xie An nodded yes.

Seeing him so obedient to himself, Xie Shuci felt quite useful.

Xie Shuci turned his head to look at him, and said a little aggressively, "Little blind man, my shoulders are sore, please help me squeeze them."

Xie An raised his eyebrows.

Xie Shuci stretched out his finger with drops of water on it, and poked the bell hanging from his waist. It was a big reminder, I gave you the little bell, why don't you give me a shoulder squeeze?

"Pinch it, or I won't be able to sleep at night." Xie Shuci opened his mouth and came.

Xie An seemed a little helpless, and pushed his restless hand back into the water, then dragged a stool and sat behind him.

The little blind man used the sword all the year round, with rough fingers pinching Xie Shuci's smooth neck, causing some inexplicable itchiness.

The strength of his palm was neither light nor heavy, and he grasped it just right, much more proficient than the first time.

Xie Shuci raised his head comfortably, closed his eyes, and said with a smile, "As expected of my younger brother, you are so good."

The little blind man lost control of one of his fingers, making Xie Shuci cry out in pain.

"Oh! I just finished praising you, can you be more handsome for a few seconds?"

Xie An's lips were stretched and he didn't speak.

Xie Shuci was in a much better mood than when he came back, since Xie An couldn't talk to him, he said to himself: "Oh, little blind man, is it surprising that I used to be so afraid of the dead, but today I saw Helian Jue Their corpses are not scary at all, is it because they have seen a lot and got used to it?"

The light and shadow hit Xie An's face, showing no emotion.

"I just think it's so strange. The laws of heaven are very strange, and people are also very strange. They are selfish and selfless."

He didn't know where he thought again, raised his head, opened his eyes and looked at Xie An, looked at it for a while, and then asked, "Little blind man, do you remember what I look like?"

Xie An paused and didn't reply.

Xie Shuci said to himself: "What if you become blind someday, can you not even recognize me? Then someone pretends to be me, I will go to you, and I will tell you that I am actually the one who is following you these days." By my side, but you don't believe me, you still help that person bully me."

Xie An laughed, "Am I that stupid?"

Xie Shuci also felt that what he said was a bit ridiculous, so he shrank his neck and shook his head.

Xie Shuci recollected it, and felt that he was a little sentimental today. He patted the back of Xie An's hand and said, "Don't pinch, I'm really hungry. Let the waiter get some food."

Xie An didn't say anything, just nodded and walked out of the screen.

Xie An stopped walking all the way to the door.

He raised his right hand, and there was no trace left on his finger where Xie Shuci had bitten, but he still seemed to feel the subtle itch.

He lowered his eyes, the light in his eyes was gloomy and gloomy.

After stopping for a while, he opened the door and walked out.

When he came back, Xie Shuci had already wrapped his clothes, lying on the bed and sleeping unconscious.

Perhaps it was because he had consumed too much energy that he slept deeply and for a long time. It was not until after noon the next day that he felt dizzy and woke up faintly.

"Xie An?" Xie Shuci shouted hoarsely, sat up and found himself alone in the room.

He slept for too long, his head was groggy, and he was in a daze when he got up, almost falling out of bed.

"Where's the person?" Xie Shuci murmured suspiciously, sitting at the table with his shoes on, and poured himself a glass of water.

The water in the pot was still warm, Xie An should have left for a while.

After drinking a glass of water, Xie Shuci's empty stomach groaned twice, feeling a little hungry. He hastily tidied it up a few times before going to find Xie An and go downstairs to look for food.

Manjiangtang was much colder than before. Walking to the lobby and looking outside the door, there were only two or three pedestrians on the road. Compared with the bustling and crowded before, it was somewhat bleak.

"Shuci, are you awake?"

Chu Guiyi and the two were sitting idle in the lobby, and smiled at Xie Shuci after seeing him.

Xie Shuci yawned and walked over, "Did you see Xie An? Why did he disappear?"

Chu Guiyi said: "Young Master Xie was taken away by the disciples of Free & Unfettered Sect."

"What?!" Hearing Xie Shuci, he immediately stood up energetically.

Chu Guiyi couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, you are already a famous alchemist now, and Mr. Xie is your friend to the outside world. Free & Unfettered Sect dare not offend you, so naturally you won't embarrass him."

Chu Wenfeng was quite unconvinced and said: "You are just a blind cat and a dead mouse. You are lucky."

Chu Guiyi said helplessly: "Shuci, don't listen to his nonsense. The story of you using the bronze medicine cauldron to subdue the Fu Long Magical Artifact has spread throughout the city. I am afraid that there will be countless people who will win you over in the future. You and Xie The young master needs to be more careful, so as not to be used by others."

After what happened yesterday, Xie Shuci is no longer a Pill Cultivator of unknown origin, but a disciple of a Pill Cultivator family with a huge background in Futu.

Xie Shuci didn't bother to be complacent, and asked, "Where are they taking Xie An?"

Chu Guiyi signaled him not to worry, and then asked Chu Wenfeng to help Xie Shuci get something to eat.

Chu Wenfeng was depressed, but he didn't dare to refuse, and reluctantly left the lobby.

"What He Lianyong did has been reported to Baimen. An envoy came to Luofang City early this morning. After ascertaining the facts, they decided to gather the disciples of the famous Xianmen in Luofang City together to discuss what to do. How to deal with the Helian family. Free & Unfettered Sect has no leader now, so they brought Mr. Xie, who is close to you, to preside over the overall situation." Chu Guiyi eloquently explained.

After hearing that Xie An was fine, Xie Shuci breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time couldn't help feeling strange, "Let Xie An take charge of the overall situation? Isn't their Free & Unfettered Sect still chasing and killing Xie An? Besides, there is Deng Fengming, What do you want Xie An to do?"

When mentioning Deng Fengming, Chu Guiyi looked a little more serious, and sighed: "Deng Fengming is dead, Xie An is an inner disciple of Free & Unfettered Sect, and has a lot of friendship with you. did you mean."

Xie Shuci was taken aback, and said in disbelief: "Deng Fengming is dead?"

how can that be? Although Deng Fengming will be killed by Xiao Xun in the original book, it will not happen until at least half a year later. How could this happen?

Chu Guiyi nodded and said: "I heard from Elder Ye of Joyous Union Sect that Deng Fengming was unlucky and was affected by He Lianzhu's formation before he died. The formation unintentionally triggered the weapons on the ground and beheaded him with a sword."

Xie Shuci suddenly remembered that when he left Helian's house yesterday, he saw a large spray of blood on the ground, could it be that the pool of blood belonged to Deng Fengming?

"No." Xie Shuci subconsciously did not believe that this matter would be so simple, "There were so many people around at that time, how could it happen that it happened to only affect him?"

Chu Guiyi obviously had the same doubts, but there was no evidence.

"But, other than that, no one was able to kill Deng Fengming quietly at that time." Chu Guiyi said.

"There is one person." Xie Shuci said seriously.

"Who?" Chu Guiyi frowned slightly.

"Xiao Xun."

Chu Guiyi shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be him."

Chu Wenfeng just came back, "What are you talking about?"

Both of them ignored him, Xie Shuci continued: "Why not him?"

Chu Guiyi said: "Xiao Xun never cared about his reputation. In order to avoid trouble, everyone who died in his hands was cut off with a single knife, but Deng Fengming was beheaded. This is not in line with Xiao Xun's killing method. And , Shu Ci, the twelve Joyous Union Sect female disciples did not die at the hands of Xiao Xun, he is probably not in Luofang City at the moment."

Xie Shuci was a little confused by what he said, "But, aren't the disciples of Joyous Union Sect the golden elixir that has been crossed?"

Chu Wenfeng interjected: "I really don't understand, why do you like to blame Xiao Xun for everything? Even if he cultivates the way of killing, he can't kill everyone in the world, right? According to He Lianyong, his people When we arrived, the disciples of Joyous Union Sect were still alive, who is Xiao Xun? If he wants to kill people, do he still want to keep alive?"

Xie Shuci: "..."

Makes sense!

Xie Shuci was probably too nervous and forgot about it, who is Xiao Xun? A person who firmly believes that shoveling weeds does not remove the roots, blowing wind blows and regenerates, with his character, if he wants to kill a person, he will not leave any chance for others to survive!

Since Xiao Xun was not in the city, Deng Fengming's death was probably due to the butterfly effect.

Thinking of this, Xie Shuci immediately relaxed his heart, and even thought cheerfully, maybe Xiao Xun also died because of the butterfly effect.

The waiter brought a bowl of boiled noodles, Xie Shuci took a few mouthfuls, and then he heard the familiar bell ringing outside the door, his eyes lit up, the little blind man came back!

The next moment, Xie An slowly walked in from the door.

Xie An wasn't the only one, he was followed by a follower in Free & Unfettered Sect uniform.

"Senior Brother Xie, there are only four days left before the opening of the Dragon Tooth Secret Realm. Why don't you bring your friends and go in with us in Free & Unfettered Sect? The secret realm is extremely dangerous, and you and us will take care of each other."

Behind Xie An was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old disciple, who looked a little younger than Xie An, but was older by Chu Wenfeng.

Xie An remained expressionless from the beginning to the end, did not make any response, and did not know whether he had listened to his disciple's words.

Xie Shuci saw that he was following Xie An tightly, nodding and bowing his head to show his courteousness, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart for no reason.

He put his chopsticks heavily on the table, and the bells around his waist collided with each other with his movements, making a crisp and pleasant sound.

Xie An paused, then looked in the direction of Xie Shuci, his lips moved slightly: "Xie Shuci?"

"Xie An, come here." Xie Shuci shouted with a straight face.

Xie An didn't know why, so he stepped up and approached him.

The follower behind him also looked at Xie Shuci, who squinted his eyes and looked around the three people at the table. Among these three people, one of them is a Pill Cultivator. Now that Senior Brother Deng is dead, he has to shoulder the responsibility of Free & Unfettered Sect and win over this Pill Cultivator in the Futu territory.

He felt that his eyes were sharp and old-fashioned, and he excluded the angry Xie Shuci at a glance. Looking to the side, on the right is a young Chu Wenfeng with an uneasy expression on his face; on the left is Chu Guiyi who is sitting dignifiedly at the table, gentle and smiling.

No, the result is out!

The kind-hearted young man on the left must be the Pill Cultivator.

Thinking of this, he ignored Xie Shuci's fierce stare, walked straight up to Chu Guiyi, bowed his hands and said, "Deng Changqing, I have seen you."

Chu Guiyi raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, he had never had any contact with Free & Unfettered Sect, but he could probably guess that this Free & Unfettered Sect disciple identified himself as Xie Shuci.

Chu Guiyi didn't speak out, but instead asked, "What's the matter, fellow Taoist?"

Deng Changqing instinctively felt that this was a good talker, so he said with a smile on his face, "That's right, senior brother Xie is a disciple of our Free & Unfettered Sect. In the past few days since the secret realm has been opened, you guys should act together with our Free & Unfettered Sect."

But in fact, Deng Changqing didn't know Xie An at all. The purpose of their coming to Luofang City was to find out the truth about the death of the disciple of Joyous Union Sect. He didn't know about other things at all. The only one who knew the inside story, Deng Fengming, and another senior brother happened to die in Helian's house.

Anyway, now that the truth is out, Xiao Xun's life or death is still uncertain. After Free & Unfettered Sect knew the ins and outs of the matter, they let them stay in Luofang City and enter the Dragon Tooth Secret Realm, and tried to win over this mysterious 'Pill Cultivator.

As for who Xie An is, Deng Changqing doesn't care, as long as he can use him to win over Pill Cultivator.

After hearing what he said, the Pill Cultivator in front of him hadn't spoken yet, and the man over there, who looked good and looked very ordinary, said, "Why are you with me? Oh, you started yelling at Xie An , Now that the truth is revealed, I found out that he is still useful, so I want to bring him back to your Free & Unfettered Sect? Are you too embarrassed? Pooh! Unless he is willing to go with you, there is no way!"

Deng Changqing's face was livid when he scolded him, "When will it be my turn for an outsider to make irresponsible remarks about my Free & Unfettered Sect? He is my Free & Unfettered Sect's disciple, so naturally it belongs to Free & Unfettered Sect."

"You have a good idea!" Xie Shuci knocked on the table indignantly, then turned to ask Xie An: "Tell me, do you listen to them or mine?"

Xie An seemed to enjoy him arguing for himself, and when he heard Xie Shuci's words, he nodded comfortably, "Listen to you."

Seeing this, Xie Shuci said triumphantly: "Did you see it? He said he listened to me. I despise people like you the most. I kick him away when I don't need him, and pick him up when I need him. You treat him like you." Who is it? Is it so cheap?"

After finishing speaking, he told Xie An: "Xie An, you are not allowed to associate with them in Free & Unfettered Sect in the future, do you understand?"

Xie An raised his head noncommittally, firmly expressing his position.

Deng Changqing didn't take it seriously, the purpose of his coming here was not for Xie An, so he sneered: "Brother Xie really can't see, otherwise why would you give up the status of Free & Unfettered Sect disciple because of a vulgar person like you ?”

"Me? Vulgar?" Xie Shuci pointed at himself incredulously, "I am a dignified and exquisite boy, and every meal has such a sense of ceremony. How dare you call me vulgar?"

Chu Wenfeng was full of doubts: "What is Boeh?"

Deng Changqing lowered his lips, "I have nothing to say to people like you..."

Halfway through his words, Chu Guiyi pushed the teacup in front of Xie Shuci with an obvious smile on his lips, "Shu Ci, don't worry, drink some tea."

Deng Changqing's voice became lower and lower, and his face gradually froze.

Shushu Shuci? What the hell?

The one called Xie Shuci, isn't that the Pill Cultivator?

Eh, no, no...

Deng Changqing felt his tongue was a little numb, and finally made his mind a little unclear.

I saw that ordinary-looking man picked up his teacup and drank it down, and then said to the polite man in front of him, "Thank you, I'm sorry."

Homecoming...

Chu Guiyi?

Is it the eldest disciple of the Chu family in Ying Province?

what……

Deng Changqing looked peaceful, it turned out that I made a mistake.

It turned out that this vulgar and ordinary man was Xie Shuci.

"Hey, look at my eyes!"

Xie Shuci was drinking his tea well, when the person opposite suddenly slapped his thigh, the loud voice made Xie Shuci tremble.

Before he could react, Deng Changqing grabbed the teapot on the table, bypassed Chu Wenfeng, and moved closer to Xie Shuci.

"I'm really blind, how can I say you are vulgar? Look at your magnificent face, this coarse cloth... ah no, I mean, such ordinary clothes are worn on Your body looks like it is inlaid with gold, no matter how you look at it..."

"Don't, don't...don't come here, I'll tell you!"

Seeing his menacing approach, Xie Shuci leaned his back on Xie An, who was used to it, stretched out a long arm without changing his expression, wrapped around Xie Shuci's waist, making him more comfortable to lean on.

"Hey, look at you, I was just joking with you just now, didn't I know that senior brother Xie only listens to you?" Deng Changqing smiled brilliantly, seeing his teeth but not seeing his eyes, and adding Xie Shuci to everything he said a cup of tea.

Chu Wenfeng laughed unceremoniously at the side, but Deng Changqing was a shameless person, and eagerly approached Xie Shuci's side without any embarrassment.

"I won't drink, you put it down!"

"Master Xie, why are you meeting me? You regard senior brother Xie as a friend, and senior brother Xie is a disciple of our Free & Unfettered Sect, so aren't you and us in the same family? A person as elegant, outstanding, and excellent as you is Cultivator, we Free & Unfettered Sect have always admired you!"

Xie Shuci was dumbfounded by his series of rainbow farts.

Xie Shuci slowly came to his senses. He saw Chu Wenfeng's face flushed with laughter, and saw Chu Guiyi's uncontrollable smile, and he completely remembered it.

Free & Unfettered Sect This kid, was he trying to curry favor with himself?

"Cough..." Xie Shuci cleared his throat, "A vulgar person like me..."

"Who?!" Deng Changqing put on a straight face, "Who dares to say you are vulgar? Let me tell you, a person like you who lives in the city is the one who is really worthy of admiration."

Xie Shuci could use a chicken feather as an arrow, let alone such a big opportunity, and sighed immediately: "You are right, Xie An is blind, so he gave up the Free & Unfettered Sect disciple for me!"identity……"

"Hey!" Deng Changqing hastily interrupted him, "You can't say that, everyone has his own ambitions. I was also worried that Brother Xie would be deceived. If it was you, then I don't have to worry at all."

Xie Shuci frowned in distress, "Can you talk so much to me? You and a vulgar person like me should have nothing to say."

Chu Wenfeng couldn't hold back anymore, "Xie Shuci, I'm convinced of you, really convinced!"

The smile on Deng Changqing's face couldn't hold back anymore, "Master Xie, don't I have eyes that don't know Mount Tai? Am I going to make an apology to you?"

Xie Shuci felt that his ability to bend and stretch was very similar to himself, so he wanted to tease him, so he sat up from Xie An's arms, squinted his eyes and looked him up and down, "Apologize? Don't you show some sincerity?"

Deng Changqing gritted his teeth: "Then tell me, how can I make amends to be sincere?"

Xie Shuci was waiting for him to say these words, he rested his chin on one hand, wandered around Deng Changqing's chest ambiguously, and said in a low voice:

"Tsk, I see you look pretty good, how about..."

Before he finished speaking, the faces of the four present all changed.
