Chapter 115 (Two in One)
Xie An's sigh was mixed with a little helplessness.
Xie Shuci turned his head to look at him, feeling that he thought too much of him, but he still felt a little awkward in his heart, and tore off Xie An's hand from his body, but he didn't rush to urge Chu Wenfeng to go faster up.
He and Xie An walked side by side, Chu Wenfeng and the two of them consciously or unconsciously took the initiative to distance themselves from them, Si Kongye had no eyesight and wanted to make trouble, so he wanted to talk to Xie Shuci when he got close.
Xie Shuci had something on his mind and ignored him, but he didn't get any response, so he turned his head and went to talk to Chu Guiyi.
The three gradually walked forward, leaving Xie Shuci and the two walking slowly behind.
Xie Shuci turned his head to one side very deliberately, he thought it was too weird, he thought it was funny when he said it, yesterday he paid you back and today he stood together, Xie Shuci didn’t even know that he should be with him say what.
It wasn't that Xie Shuci didn't want to talk, it was that he really didn't know what to say to Xie An.
Yes, he knew that Xie An was Xiao Xun, but he was still reluctant to leave. That didn't mean he could get along with Xie An without barriers. He wasn't Chu Guiyi or Chu Wenfeng. He didn't see much and didn't know much. There's really no way to be as transparent as the others.
"What are you thinking?" Xie An followed beside him, turning his head to look at him.
Xie Shuci raised his eyes and looked at him resentfully, "You."
Xie An pursed his lower lip, and touched Xie Shuci's hand with his hand hanging by his side. The warm palm wrapped around the back of his hand. Xie Shuci subconsciously twitched back, but did not twitch.
"I'm right here, instead of thinking about me, it's better to talk to me." Xie An said.
Xie Shuci sighed sincerely, "What did I tell you? Tell you which method of killing is faster? How does it feel to kill someone for the first time? How many people have you killed in total?"
Hearing this, Xie An fell silent.
He knew that it would not be possible to eradicate Xie Shuci's fear of himself in a short time, and he was not a patient heart. Be patient with everything.
Xie An held his hand in his palm, his eyes darkened, "Xie Shuci, I was indeed what you knew in the past. Life was like an ant to me. But I have changed because you .”
Xie Shuci taught him a lot of truths, it made him try to cherish a weak life for the first time, and he had the idea of regretting and shrinking for the first time.
Xie An's words echoed in his ears, Xie Shuci seemed to have been scalded, his ears were blushing, and he lowered his head.
He knew that Xie An had changed, and he could feel that he really liked him, but Xie An didn't want to leave with him, and he didn't want to live an ordinary life with him.
On the way down the mountain, Xie Shuci remained silent all the time. He was in a mess and didn't know what to say.
Xie An doesn't want to live an ordinary life with him, so why not just stay with Xie An all the time?
However, Xie Shuci was originally an ordinary person, so being by his side and being involved in all kinds of dangerous and magical things with him, and facing Xie An who might be unable to restrain himself at any time and kill him, Xie Shu Ci really felt that he would not live long.
If everything will go back to the original track in the end, even if Xie An doesn't kill him, Xie Shuci will be "killed by the plot" sooner or later, because he is a cannon fodder who should have died long ago.
Perhaps because he noticed that Xie Shuci was absent-minded along the way, Xie An clasped his fingers tightly, and after a long silence, he said, "Xie Shuci, if you want to leave, I can let you go."
Xie Shuci paused, staring blankly at the people around him.
Xie An looked at him with deep eyes, and said in a deep voice, "For now, let you go."
Xie Shuci's eyes were dull, and his heart seemed to be empty all of a sudden.
He would rather let himself go than leave with him?
Xie Shuci felt suffocated again. Compared to staying by his side in fear, it was...his taking the initiative to let him leave made Xie Shuci feel more suffocated?
Xie Shuci's expression gradually dimmed, and he pushed Xie An's hand that was holding him down. This time, Xie An didn't use any more force, and simply let go of him.
"Understood." Xie Shuci nodded without looking at him again.
He strode forward, wanting to catch up with Chu Guiyi and the others, feeling panicked and empty, and at the same time he didn't understand why he was doing this, didn't he just want to leave Xiao Xun? Don't you just want to stay away from him and people like Si Kongye? Xie An satisfied him and didn't force him, shouldn't he be happy?
But in fact, Xie Shuci was not happy at all.
There was even a kind of panic in his heart, exactly the same panic as when he discovered Xie An's true identity.
He ignored Xie An behind him, and went to Chu Wenfeng's side, dejected and numb.
Seeing this, Chu Wenfeng turned his head to look at Xie An, who had not changed his expression, bumped Xie Shuci's shoulder, and said, "What's wrong with you?"
Xie Shuci murmured: "Maybe my menopause is early."
Chu Wenfeng: "..."
"ill."
Xie Shuci sighed, "Yes, I am sick, a serious illness, cancer, and it can't be cured."
Chu Wenfeng frowned and looked at him, then turned to look at Xie An who was following him unhurriedly, moved his lips and wanted to say something, but in the end he hesitated to speak. After all, this was a matter between Xie Shuci and Xie An. As an outsider, he didn't need to intervene. He just felt that Xie Shuci's usual idleness seemed so low-key now, and he was a little uncomfortable.
After a long time, he "tsk", "Ask what love is in this world..."
Xie Shuci glared at him, "Shut up. What kind of love is it? Isn't it good to have a career?"
"You have a shit career?"
"I have. From tomorrow onwards, I will make ten elixirs every day, and I will exhaust myself to death."
Chu Wenfeng curled his lips, "Be careful of going crazy."
"Bah, bah, bah! Can you say something auspicious?"
A few words with Chu Wenfeng, the haze in Xie Shuci's heart was swept away a lot, he snorted coldly, and left as soon as he left, just because he was too lazy to worry about it every day.
It was still early at that time, and there were still two full hours before the start of the auction.
The streets were still full of traffic, probably because the auction was about to start, and the foreign monks in Machine Reading City all put on their own disciple uniforms, and before they left, Chu Guiyi and the other two also changed their clothes.
As for Si Kongye, this guy has been wandering all over Kyushu all year round. I'm afraid he has even forgotten what the uniforms of the Sikong family disciples look like.
Xie Shuci suppressed the emotions in his heart and looked around curiously, wanting to see any familiar faces inside.
There were constant monks coming and going on the street, all of them were immortal, and some monks who were in a hurry were flying over the roofs and walls, and Xie Shuci was envious.
"Have you heard that the disciples of the Yin family were kicked out of Machine Reading City by Mr. Meng!"
"really?"
"It's true. I saw with my own eyes that a large group of people from the Yin family left the machine reading city overnight. They traveled thousands of miles to participate in the auction meeting. As soon as they came, they wanted to let everyone know that Mr. Meng had invited them to the Yin family. What happened? That day At night, I left Machine Reading City in despair."
"It is said that that night, Old Meng held a banquet in the fairy gate for several foreign monks. One of them was the mysterious Master Pill Cultivator. Old Meng drove out of Machine Reading City in a fit of anger."
"Hey! Those people from the Yin family should be dealt with! Is it his Yin family who are still waiting for the opportunity to read the city?"
"It deserves it!"
Hearing the chatter in the teahouse on the street, Xie Shuci couldn't help but glance over there. He didn't expect the news to spread so quickly. It seems that everyone in Machine Reading City already knew about the Yin family being kicked out.
I don't know what happened to the brothers? Have you already left? Speaking of which, Xie Shuci never saw them again after the farewell that day.
"Mr. Du, please write it here."
Among the crowd in front of him, Xie Shuci took a dazzling look, as if he had caught something.
He stopped, and Chu Wenfeng and Chu Wenfeng looked into the crowd curiously.
I saw a group of men and women gathered around the door of an inn, and screams came from inside from time to time.
Xie Shuci saw a woman pull her hair to one side, bent her body slightly, exposing a shoulder, there seemed to be someone sitting behind her, Xie Shuci couldn't see clearly.
Immediately afterwards, he pinched the wolf hair with one hand and dipped it in ink, leaving three words on the woman's shoulder in a smooth manner.
Xie Shuci tilted his head, and vaguely saw that it was the three characters beginning with "Du".
"Du..." The remaining two words of Xie Shuci were unclear.
After the woman got the autograph, she walked to the side with a smile on her face, and the other one stepped forward immediately, "Mr. Du, write here."
"Me! Write to me first!"
"Why should I write to you first? Get lost!"
The crowd suddenly became noisy, and one person shouted: "Don't worry, everyone, don't worry, everyone has a share, everyone has a share!"
Xie Shuci narrowed his eyes, feeling that the voice was slightly familiar.
Chu Wenfeng was about the same height as Xie Shuci, he crossed his arms and glanced inside, and read out word by word: "Du, Ping, Sheng?"
Then, he looked at Xie Shuci expressionlessly, "Isn't this your brother?"
Xie Shuci: "..."
Xie Shuci ground his teeth and squeezed into the crowd like a loach.
"Eh? What's the matter with you?"
"First come, first served, do you know? Why is it crowded?"
Xie Shuci looked over quietly and said, "I have no quality."
Passerby: "..."
Xie Shuci squeezed all the way to the front, and sure enough, he saw a table at the door, and Du Pingsheng was behind the table, with a humble and easy-going face, he signed the names of the people in front of him, and immediately greeted the next person.
Xie Shuci looked at him, his teeth itching with anger, okay! The autograph session is all done? What surprises do you have that I don't know about?
Xie Shuci blocked the passer-by who wanted to go forward with one hand, and took a step forward under the gaze of the other party, and walked in front of Du Pingsheng.
"Young master, where do you want to sign..." The voice of the bookboy standing aside gradually weakened.
Xie Shuci looked at him with a half-smile, his smile froze, he lowered his head guiltyly, and quietly poked Du Pingsheng who was dipping in ink.
"Young master, young master..."
Du Pingsheng glanced at him and ignored him.
"Young master!" The book boy turned red with anxiety, and abducted him severely.
Du Pingsheng slipped his hand, and the wolf flew away, flying to the man at the table, leaving a deep ink stain on the man's clothes immediately.
The book boy's expression became even more ugly, he glanced tremblingly at Xie Shuci, and slowly took two steps back.
Du Pingsheng was shocked, and hurriedly got up to wipe it off, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's..."
Before his hand touched the opponent's clothes, he was grabbed by the wrist.
"This young master..." Du Pingsheng raised his head with a serious face, and was facing a pair of eyes with a smile that didn't reach his eyes.
"Long time no see. Brother Du is really doing well." Xie Shuci narrowed his eyes, and his tone sounded like he was gnashing his teeth.
When Du Pingsheng saw Xie Shuci's face, he was stunned for a long time before taking a few steps back as if he had seen a ghost.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you..." He pointed at Xie Shuci, and his tongue was lost.
Xie Shuci smiled, "You're welcome."
"Brother Du is very famous in Qi Province now, I have long wanted to get together with Brother Du alone, today is just right, please move Brother Du." Xie Shuci laughed.
Du Pingsheng looked at his smiling face and couldn't help shivering, "You, you, you..."
Xie Shuci pinched his finger and pushed it back hard. Du Pingsheng was so painful that he couldn't speak immediately.
Xie Shuci turned around and said to the others: "I'm sorry everyone, Mr. Du still has important matters today. After he finishes handling them, he will compensate everyone for staying up and signing for several days and nights."
The book boy didn't want Du Pingsheng to be seen as a joke, so he immediately echoed: "Let's break up first, Mr. Du will compensate everyone later."
When everyone heard what the book boy said, although they were unwilling, they still left regretfully.
"Thank you, Brother Xie." Du Pingsheng covered his fingers and shouted with a scowling face.
Xie Shuci squeezed his fingers, and walked slowly towards Du Pingsheng, "My good brother, my good brother who is close to each other in the world."
"Be careful!" Du Pingsheng suddenly pointed behind him in horror.
Xie Shuci raised the corners of his lips coldly, "Are you treating me as a three-year-old child? You also want to deceive me with this trick? I wouldn't do such a stupid thing when I was five years old."
"Oh, no!" Du Pingsheng still pointed behind him.
Xie Shuci turned his head to the side, feeling a strong wind flying towards him, he frowned, stepped on the table, his body relayed into the air, and avoided the flying things.
However, the ultimate goal of that thing does not seem to be Xie Shuci, but Du Pingsheng behind him.
"Help!" Du Pingsheng yelled, and there was a commotion in the crowd.
Chu Wenfeng picked up the long knife, lifted the wooden table, and stood in front of Du Pingsheng and the two of them. Hearing a "Zheng", a short knife was inserted into the wooden table, and the tip of the knife was dangerously hanging on the tip of Du Pingsheng's nose. .
Du Pingsheng was so frightened that he was sweating profusely, and he didn't dare to move.
"Young master? Young master? Are you alright?" The book boy reacted and immediately stepped forward to support him.
"who?"
After Xie Shuci fell to the ground, he looked towards the direction where the dagger was flying. Several monks stood in the middle of the road, looking at Du Pingsheng coldly.
Seeing their clothes, Xie Shuci couldn't help being stunned. He had seen this disciple uniform before, and it was a disciple of Free & Unfettered Sect.
Xie Shuci frowned. These Free & Unfettered Sect disciples were different from the ones Xie Shuci had seen before. Their aura was mature and experienced, and they carried some arrogance of those in the upper class. They looked at Du Pingsheng again At that time, it was too cold to be ballasted.
Seemingly realizing that Xie Shuci was looking at them, they slowly shifted their gazes to Xie Shuci, and then slightly narrowed their eyes.
They didn't feel like ordinary Free & Unfettered Sect disciples to Xie Shuci, their eyes made Xie Shuci's back feel a chill.
But at this moment, a red spiritual force urged the dagger stuck on the wooden table, and quickly flew towards the disciples of Free & Unfettered Sect.
Things happened so fast, before Xie Shuci could even see what was going on, the flying dagger had already scratched the arm of a Free & Unfettered Sect disciple.
"Ah—" the Free & Unfettered Sect disciple cried out in pain.
Few of the monks present saw what was going on, but Xie Shuci realized that the spiritual power had been seen before, so he couldn't help turning his gaze to Xie An who was not far away.
The disciples led by Free & Unfettered Sect seemed to be aware of it, and looked in Xie An's direction with a cold face.
Xie Shuci immediately became nervous. He hadn't forgotten that Xie An was hunted down by Free & Unfettered Sect back then, and almost died in their hands.
They wouldn't recognize Xie Anlai, would they?
Now Xie An is still very weak, so he may not be able to beat them, plus he has gone crazy before...
Xie Shuci couldn't help but worry.
Xie An probably didn't care if his identity was exposed, but looked at Xie Shuci who was opposite, and met Xie Shuci's worried expression head-on, a smile could not help but appear on the corner of his mouth.
The disciples headed by Free & Unfettered Sect paused their eyes on Xie An for a moment. After just a moment, he looked away, not intending to make a big fuss and attract attention. Finally, he gave Du Pingsheng a cold look and said, "You can do it yourself."
Afterwards, he left with Free & Unfettered Sect disciples.
It seemed that he did not recognize Xie An, Xie Shuci breathed a sigh of relief.
Also, the person who wants to kill Xie An should be the Free & Unfettered Sect in the Buddha Realm, and there should not be many people who know his true face.
Xie An walked up to Xie Shuci as if no one was there, and opened his lips as if about to say something, but Xie Shuci looked away first.
Seeing this, Xie An's eyes darkened, and he pursed his lips.
Xie Shuci looked at Du Pingsheng, who was pale with fright, turned the table down, stepped forward and asked, "How did you offend Free & Unfettered Sect?"
And probably not an ordinary Free & Unfettered Sect disciple.
Du Pingsheng said with a bitter face: "I don't even know them, how can I offend them?"
Xie Shuci rested his chin in one hand and said doubtfully, "Then why are they targeting you?"
Du Pingsheng pondered for a moment, looked up at Xie Shuci, and asked tentatively, "Could it be...jealous of my talent?"
The book boy turned pale, shook his lips, and said in a low voice: "Young master...Young master..."
"Why?" Du Pingsheng turned his head to look.
The book boy swallowed and said, "Xiao Bao's mother told me something, I forgot to tell you."
"What's up?"
Xie Shuci also looked over curiously.
Xiao Bao his mother? It must be the girl they met in the inn a few days ago, she said she knew Du Pingsheng at the time.
The book boy glanced at him, lowered his head, and said in a voice like a mosquito: "Xiao Bao's mother said, if you are not with her, you will run away immediately when you see the disciple of Free & Unfettered Sect."
"Why?" Xie Shuci and Du Pingsheng said in unison.
The book boy lowered his voice and buried his head even lower, "It is said that your book was spread to the boundary where Xiaoyaomen is located. The owner of the door was furious when he saw it, and ordered to destroy all the records of strange stories in the boundary. Xiaobao said Mother said, they will kill you."
Du Pingsheng gasped after hearing this, stood up and slapped the boy on the back of the head, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?!"
The book boy shrank his neck and said in a low voice, "I, I forgot it accidentally."
Xie Shuci was amazed, these two guys are still the same as before, one is more stupid than the other.
"Brother Xie, I'm sorry, I have to run for my life in an emergency!" Du Pingsheng grabbed the bag and the bookboy on the ground and ran in the opposite direction.
"You!" Xie Shuci was still full of anger, how could he just leave like this?
But these two slipped away very fast like mice, Xie Shuci couldn't catch up at all, he gritted his teeth, and just about to curse, he saw a figure flying out beside him, and landed in front of Du Pingsheng in an instant, Blocking their way, he immediately grabbed the skirts of the two of them and returned to Xie Shuci with one in each hand.
Xie Shuci: "..."
This was the first time he felt Xie An's speed intuitively, and he appeared in front of Xie Shuci in a whoosh. Before he could see clearly, he appeared in front of Xie Shuci again in a whoosh.
He threw Du Pingsheng and the other two in front of Xie Shuci, and then looked at Xie Shuci, as if he was asking for credit, currying favor with Xie Shuci.
Xie Shuci's mood is complicated, it's like the helpless supporting role NPC who has been interacting with you in the game, suddenly transformed into the biggest and most powerful boss here.
Xie Shuci stiffened his neck, and looked away as if he didn't see his eyes.
"You can run away as a monk but not in the temple. If Free & Unfettered Sect really wants to kill you openly, they can find you even if you go to the ends of the earth. Seeing how they look like, they probably don't want to make a big deal out of it. You have a warning." Xie Shuci said.
The book boy nodded and said, "Xiao Bao's mother also said that if you can't escape, you must stay in a crowded place. Free & Unfettered Sect will never kill you in public."
Du Pingsheng: "..."
He hit the bookboy on the head with a chestnut, and the bookboy let out an "ah" and covered the top of his head in aggrieved manner.
Du Pingsheng scolded: "Can you say it earlier? Finish it in one breath?"
The book boy muttered, "I forgot."
Du Pingsheng wanted to continue scolding, but suddenly felt a chill coming from his side. Looking back, he found that it was Xie Shuci and his foster brother standing behind them with a cold face, looking at Xie Shuci with fixed eyes, Xie Shuci Ci Pianfen is like a blind man, just not looking at him.
Du Pingsheng knew at a glance that the master behind him couldn't be offended, so he said with a smile on his face, "Look at you, if you said it earlier, why do you still need Brother Xie to take action?"
Xie Shuci found that most of the people on the street were passers-by who were looking at them, and said in a low voice, "Let's go in and talk, I just happen to settle a deal with you."
Du Pingsheng had a bitter face, but there was nothing he could do, not to mention that he was a serious and ordinary person, he couldn't run even if he wanted to, even if he ran, what would he do if he was caught in the dark by the people from Free & Unfettered Sect? When Xiao Bao's mother was away, he still had to find a backer first, and Xie Shuci, his foster brother, and the two disciples of the Chu family were obviously the best choices.
Du Pingsheng gave the book boy a wink. The latter had been with Du Pingsheng for so many years, and he had a perfect understanding. He bent down and made a gesture of "please" to Xie Shuci, "Please, please."
"Brother Xie, let's go, I haven't seen you for a long time, I wanted to talk to you a long time ago."
Xie Shuci glanced at him with a half-smile, and paused every word: "I've been thinking about you for a long time."
Du Pingsheng: "..."
Obviously, this is the legendary hidden knife in a smile.
Xie Shuci walked into the inn first, followed by Chu Wenfeng and others.
When Chu Guiyi walked towards the inn, he found that Si Kongye on the side did not move.
He wondered, "Brother Sikong?"
Si Kongye looked into the distance calmly, and said to Chu Guiyi, "An old friend has come."
Chu Guiyi nodded knowingly, "Please go ahead."
Si Kongye didn't talk nonsense, his body jumped into the air, leaped towards the eaves, and disappeared from Chu Guiyi's sight.
Chu Guiyi looked back and walked into the inn.
There was a "whoosh" sound in the long street, and a dagger was thrown towards Si Kongye from nowhere.
Si Kongye narrowed his eyes slightly, and easily grasped the flying dagger with both hands. A jade was nailed to the dagger. Unlike ordinary jade, it was filled with spiritual power.
Si Kongye sneered, took off the jade, and urged it with spiritual power, the green snake that was coiled around his wrist excitedly spit out the letter, and got up from his cuff.
At the same time, a ray of purple light poured into the body of the green snake, establishing a connection with Zixi who was far away in the Buddha realm.
"Brother, Elder Siming Pavilion has orders."
The voice of Si Kongxin resounded from the jade vessel.
Si Kongye lowered the corner of his mouth, "Let's listen."
"Assist Free & Unfettered Sect, lure Xiao Xun into a demon, and kill him when he starts killing, and the Xiao family will not be able to pursue him."
