Chapter 36: Just Friends 36
Although Ren Yi's tuba was deeply confused by Hong Xuzi's behavior as a riddler, he quickly understood the other party's guess about the relationship between the two vests.The reason is also very simple, Hong Xuzi came to find Jian Zun's trumpet.
Before Ren Yi's tuba returned to Hancang Peak, he felt a strange aura on the peak.Ren Yi doesn't have much spiritual power allocated to Jian Zun's trumpet, and the latter's behavior is more inclined to physical instinct.Before he could tell who this aura was, he pointed at it as a sword and slashed in that direction.
After a miserable howl, a fat doll with two heads and the size of an adult's palm appeared on the spot. The doll's chubby hand was holding a lock of neatly cut hair, which was obviously cut off by the sword energy just now.
This familiar-looking little doll was full of heartache, and said in a rough voice that was completely different from this cute appearance, "I haven't seen you for so many years, and this is how you greet your uncle?!"
Sensing the change on the trumpet side, Ren Yi, who quickly switched to the account, "..."
Ren Yi was silent for a while, and respectfully saluted, "Master Uncle."
Although the other party said "Master Uncle" and swore that Ren Yi could not refute his memory loss at this moment, but he decided to trust his intuition.
In fact, when the tuba was misidentified just now and the other party claimed to be "Master", Ren Yi wanted to correct it, but the situation at that time was obviously not suitable for speaking.
Hearing Ren Yi's name, Hong Xuzi put on the two-headed Nascent Soul and performed a live performance of blowing his beard and staring.
Hongxuzi and Hongmengzi started at almost the same time, and there was a similar age difference, so there was no reason for the dispute between senior brothers and juniors until one of them fell.It's just that Hongmengzi went early, and no one in Taichuzong dared to disobey this remaining ancestor. Hongxuzi, the "senior brother", has a solid reputation and has passed the Ming road in the sect, but Qingran, the little bastard, insisted on being right.Every time he called a "uncle teacher" and didn't change his words, Hong Xuzi was so angry that his teeth itch.
If Hongxuzi himself was blowing his beard and staring at him, he might still be able to scare people, but a bicep-sized doll the size of a palm, making such an expression, is a bit... naive.
Ren Yi "..."
Thanks to the small vest is a facial paralysis.
At that time, what Hong Xuzi said to Yan Shuoyun that he could not go to Hancang Peak was indeed true, but the formation of Hancang Peak could stop Hong Xuzi, but could not stop his Nascent Soul, but Hong Xuzi was stunned.Curious about his nephew "Taoist"'s heart-scratching curiosity, he didn't step half a step into Hancang Peak.After all, Hongxuzi refused from the bottom of his heart to bear such a little Nascent Soul in front of his nephew, which would hurt the face of his elders.
But after meeting Ren Yi, he couldn't take care of face for a while.
It turned out to be a "Soul Deed"!
Even though Hong Xuzi was beaten to death, he never thought that such a thing would happen to this nephew who was born with a heart like a fairy.
Hongxuzi felt that Qingran was too calm and lacked the vigor of a young man from the beginning of his apprenticeship. He had teased him many times in the name of his mentor nephew, but this kid was stunned from the beginning to the end.A calm and unhurried attitude, as if born with no desires or desires.As far as Qing Ran's temperament is not concerned about everything, Hong Xuzi is already very surprised that he can ask for something, not to mention this kind of life-to-life, life-to-death entanglement.
It's just that things are different now.
No matter what kind of intentions Qingran had in forming a bond with someone back then, but with Qingran's current situation, the spirit-soul bond between the two can be maintained... Could it be that he wants to pull the other party together and die?
Hong Xuzi was holding back his stomach to say something, but when he raised his head to look at Qing Ran again, his face darkened abruptly.
The lively jumping emotions when he was shaved and called "Master Uncle" just now completely disappeared from his face, Hong Xuzi stared at Qing Ran for a long time, and said in a deep voice, "You don't remember."
He used a ten out of ten affirmative tone.
Ren Yi "..."
He didn't deliberately conceal the memory loss, but it was beyond his imagination to be exposed so quickly.He originally thought that Trumpet, as a facial paralysis with very little expression and few words, should be difficult to be seen.
Ren Yi's current state of amnesia is caused by his car overturning (according to Yan'er, it seems to be a side effect of the Sanwu elixir) and the loss of the system database.
But when the same thing fell into Hong Xuzi's eyes, it was a completely different explanation.
Many existences in this illusion are a touch of consciousness left by the master when he was still alive, but Qing Ran is different. As the eye of the illusion array and the seal array, he maintains both with his own spirit.There must be wear and tear in this process, and Qingran's spirit is also being reduced day by day... When the spirit is weak to a certain extent, the memory will naturally disappear.
Hongxuzi seemed to be in a trance, he murmured in a low voice, "After that... so long has passed."
The two-headed Nascent Soul floated up from the table, Hongxuzi's gaze passed Qing Ran's body, and landed on "Ningshuang" beside him, suddenly, "That's why you retreated earlier."
Ren Yi had already noticed the cultivation of the person who came, and it was not surprising that the other party saw the change in the formation.
But when it came to Hong Xuzi's attitude, Ren Yi always felt that the other party might have misunderstood something. Did this uncle think that he was going to "die" soon?
Although the small vest of Jian Zun has been abandoned by Ren Yi for a while, it has always been Schrödinger's death state as a sealing eye.For this small world, Qing Ran, whose soul is still there, is considered "alive" to some extent, but for Chuanshuju, the character of Jian Zun has no plot, the position will not change, and the soul has fallen into a deep sleep and does not communicate with others., is completely a prop existence as the eye of the sealing formation.
Although the name of Ren Yi's tool man department is this name, it doesn't really treat its subordinate employees as "tools", especially this kind of background "props" with no technical content.
——This is purely a meaningless waste of valuable human resources of the department!
After Ren Yi finished the plot line that should have been in the past, he directly reported to the bureau, stuffed a ball of energy body instead of the sword master's sleeping soul, and then jumped the timeline and put on a new vest to start the main plot.
Although Ren Yi doesn't remember this series of events at the moment, this is a routine operation in the bookstore. After Ren Yi inquired about the timeline of the two vests from Yan Er, he guessed exactly what he did back then.ten.
Ordinarily, the plot of the sword master was completely over the moment Ren Yi took off this vest, and the rest depends on who can consume the energy body that replaces the soul and the sealed dragon—but it is produced by ChuanshujuThe quality has always been reliable, and Ren Yi is very relieved about it.
It's just that no one thought that after the turbulent flow of time and space, the system fell on the sword master trumpet that existed completely as a prop, and when it was self-repairing in the dormant state, it directly consumed the energy body that was used to replace the soul.The system only has the core program at the moment, and its functions are not complete. Ren Yi can’t get in touch with the bureau now. One person can apply for a second energy body if they are unified. Once they leave, the vest will really be gone, and it will be sealed at that time.With one lift, Ren Yi's hard work of two vests was for nothing.
It is because of this that Ren Yi has to urgently shift his focus now, and is forced to look for the heir to this illusion.
Thinking about it this way, although the reason is not correct, Hongxuzi's guess is not wrong - this vest will not last long.This kind of situation of "the derivation process was all wrong, but the correct answer was hit by a wrong way" made Ren Yi silent for a long time, and could only swallow the words he wanted to explain.
Hong Xuzi, who was caught off guard by the news, didn't speak again for a while.
Silence spread between the two, and after a short while, the little Nascent Soul suddenly sighed heavily, sat down on the short table in front of Ren Yi rather uncharacteristically, and said in a casual manner, "I've alreadyI knew there would be such a day back then, but now it’s finally here.”
Ren Yi never thought that he was really free and easy.
After all, people are born and they will die. "Knowing it a long time ago" and "right in front of you" are completely different things.
Ren Yi glanced at the expression on the face of the still tender little Yuanying, and hesitantly said, "...Uncle."
Hongxuzi waved his hands impatiently, "Okay, it's you who has something to do, not me, and I don't need you to explain it."
After saying this, the two fell silent again.
Hong Xuzi didn't look at Ren Yi anymore, instead he seemed to suddenly become interested in the cut off hair in his hand, knotting it for a while, and circling it for a while, obviously diverting his attention and not wanting to be in this nephew's hair.Some heavy emotions were revealed in front of him, but the results were ineffective.
After a while, Hong Xuzi still couldn't bear the heavy and oppressive atmosphere, so he pulled out a stiff smile, "If you really feel bad, then call me 'uncle' before you leave, and I can be regarded as..."
"Uncle."
Before Hongxuzi could finish speaking, Ren Yi had already opened his mouth in an obedient manner.
Caught off guard, Hong Xuzi showed an expression as if someone had strangled his neck.
It took a long time before he seemed to recover, looked at Ren Yi up and down, back and forth, and after a while he came to the conclusion, "You really don't remember."
Ren Yi "..."
He didn't think that was the reason.
The other party's "last wish" tone, even if he really remembered, he should also call "Master Uncle".
Although there is such an "unexpected joy", in the current situation, it is impossible for Hong Xuzi to be happy no matter what.He didn't come here this time to gossip. After making such a big circle, Hongxuzi finally remembered his original intention of coming to Hancang Peak this time, "What are you going to do with that little..."
Of course Ren Yi knew that what Hong Xuzi said was referring to the tuba he had just met (Ren Yi felt that the other party never wanted to use such a polite way of addressing "junior" at first), and it happened that he also wanted to know how Hong Xuzi guessed the twoThe relationship between the numbers, I couldn't help but calm down, prick up my ears and listen carefully.
Hongxuzi went on, "If the soul contract is not released, do you want to drag him to die together?"
He was not beaten to death for his straight and harsh speech, it can only be said that he was cultivated.
But even though Hongxuzi said so, his tone was not very worried. He didn't know how Qingran was deceived back then, but obviously the latter's soul contract object had not been implicated by the seal before, and he should be reincarnated.Reincarnation and reincarnation, if the other party hadn't accidentally entered the illusion this time, the soul contract would not work again.
Qing Ran was able to cut off the first time back then, and now he can cut off the second time, Hong Xuzi has always been at ease with this nephew.
He didn't come here this time purely to dislike him, and immediately said, "You didn't call 'Uncle Master' for nothing. If there is anything that needs my help, just ask."
Back then, he, an old guy, failed to save his nephew. Now that ten thousand years have passed, Qing Ran finally had such a lover, and he had to keep him.
He paused, and then continued, "If you are really worried, I have recently taken a fancy to a person. I will exchange my inheritance for his spirit and swear to protect your Taoist companion."
Hongxuzi didn't mention the "stealing people" matter he mentioned to Yan Shuoyun earlier.With the soul bond, the two parties in this soul contract are half-body relationship, even the soul breath is similar to each other, it is purely a joke for outsiders to intervene.
What's more, his so-called "stealing people" at that time was just talking about enjoying himself, and he didn't plan to really force people to do anything. He just wanted to find someone to help Qingran take care of his sweetheart.
Hongxuzi didn't think there was anything wrong with treating Yan Shuoyun as a tool man at all. In the final analysis, the world of cultivation still says "the strong are respected". His cultivation base is enough for him to look down on most worldly things.
He also doesn't think it's weird that "the teacher and nephew are still in the spirit, so they are anxious to find a home for the nephew and daughter-in-law".In the final analysis, so many years have passed, and the reincarnation does not know how many rounds have passed.Both Qingran and him are "dead people", just relying on this illusion to barely maintain a sense of sobriety. After all, they are in two worlds with the living, and they have to look away and let go...
Hong Xuzi thought about it, but noticed that Qing Ran on the opposite side hadn't responded since just now.
He suddenly realized something, and suddenly raised his head to look over, "Qing Ran, do you really want to..." Pulling the other party together to make you lose your mind?!
Hong Xuzi noticed Qing Ran's attitude before he finished speaking.
The young Jianxiu was still silent, but he didn't mean to deny it - he acquiesced to this statement.
Hongxuzi suddenly felt that this matter was much trickier than he thought at first.
Even at this moment, the expression on Qing Ran's face was extremely calm.
This man is very clear about what he is doing, he is going crazy with an extremely calm and rational attitude.
——Of course it is "crazy"!!
Hongxuzi felt that his nephew slept for too long, and his spirit was a little abnormal.
Would a normal person do something that drags his sweetheart to die with him?!
He took a deep breath, and just about to say something to wake up this nephew, but when he was about to speak, he realized another thing.
... Did that person, Qing Ran's soul contract object, really "accidentally" enter the illusion?
A certain possibility surfaced in his heart, and Hong Xuzi looked at his nephew opposite with a terrifying expression.
He gritted his teeth, paused word by word, and asked almost the same question when he faced Ren Yi before, but this time the tone was much more intense, "Qing Ran! You really know what you are doing, what, what,?!"
