Winter nights always come very early, when Ye Changsheng and He Jiuzhong came out of Luo Xiaoman's shop, the sun was almost below the horizon.The sky was dyed orange like an oil painting by the afterglow of the sun, and it seemed to have a warm feeling.

He Jiuzhong looked at Ye Changsheng: "Go home?"

Ye Changsheng nodded, looked back at him, and squinted his eyes with a smile: "Well, let's go home."

He Jiuzhong reached out and rubbed the top of his hair, then waved to the other side of the road and stopped a taxi.He opened the door and let Ye Changsheng get into the car first with the cake, and then sat down next to him, and reported an address to the taxi driver with ease.

Ye Changsheng tilted his head and watched He Jiuzhong's flowing movements, and the corners of his lips twitched, as if he had something to say.

He Jiuzhong looked at him sideways: "What?"

Ye Changsheng put his face in one hand and said with a smile: "It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered last year when I passed out in City A." "I'm really curious, what kind of car did you take, how can you spend [-] well? Even if it's a black car, I've never seen such a crazy one."

Tsk tut twice, sighing: "That driver really dares to ask for it."

When He Jiuzhong heard that Ye Changsheng brought this up again, he didn't have any expression of shame on his face.Taking a look at Ye Changsheng, he asked lightly, "You want to know?"

Ye Changsheng looked He Jiuzhong up and down, and felt that with his appearance and aura, he really didn't look like he could be targeted by black cars.After thinking about it for a while, a thought flashed through his mind, his eyes suddenly paused on his face, and he said with some amusement: "Could it be...you forced it on him?"

He Jiuzhong's expression was indifferent, and he didn't even refute.

Ye Changsheng's brows twitched slightly, and he thought about his words for a while, then looked at him: "Then are you sure that the taxi you stopped was really this kind of taxi?"

He Jiuzhong raised his eyebrows, and he didn't seem to have the slightest remorse: "Who knows?"

Ye Changsheng laughed angrily at his appearance.Imagining the scene at that time, he didn't know whether he should feel sorry for the private car owner who was forcibly intercepted by He Jiuzhong, the evil god, or the money that He Jiuzhong took as the fare for no reason.

I sighed in my heart, then raised my face and praised him very sincerely: "However, from this small matter, it can be seen that although it's only been a year and a half, your growth here is still very obvious. Well."

He Jiuzhong didn't feel ashamed to bear such praise, took Ye Changsheng's free hand into his own, and raised his eyelids to look at him: "Because someone taught him well."

Ye Changsheng couldn't help but smile when he heard this wave of business exchange.He didn't make a sound, but just squeezed He Jiuzhong's hand with his backhand slightly.

It was completely dark when the two got out of the taxi.

There was a night wind whizzing past, it was dry and cold, and it hurt like a knife on his face.

Downstairs, a man wearing a black cloak was standing in the shadow of the corridor entrance. The hood on his head almost covered half of his face. At first glance, his whole body almost merged with the entire darkness.

Lu Kan.

He Jiuzhong narrowed his eyes slightly, and was about to walk over there, but Ye Changsheng stopped him with his hand.

"Mr. He, I'm a bit tired from carrying the cake." Ye Changsheng stuffed the cake in his arms into his arms, and said with a smile, "Can you help me carry it up?"

He Jiuzhong paused for a moment when he heard these words, then slowly lowered his head to look at Ye Changsheng.Seeing that although the smile on his face was gentle, but the look in his eyes was very firm, knowing that he had his own plan in mind, after a long while, he finally relaxed his brows and chose to retreat.

He reached out to take the cake, and took out another hand to rub his hair: "I'll wait for you at home."

As he spoke, he gave Lu Kan another warning look, and then walked up the stairs.

On the other side, Ye Changsheng saw He Jiuzhong went upstairs and walked away, so he walked slowly to Lu Kan, raised his eyes to look at him for a while, smiled and said softly: "The situation was too chaotic before. I didn't even have time to say hello to you."

"Long time no see, I almost don't recognize you at first glance." He looked at Lu Kan with an elder-like softness in his eyes, "You have indeed become a formidable person just like your father."

Lu Kan was slightly taken aback.

Ye Changsheng in front of him was obviously a little shorter than him, but at this moment, he seemed to see the young man with gentle eyes from before.

The sunset is all over the sky, and it is the time of magic.He carried the young him and Lu Cheng through the streets full of corpses, and led them out of the city.Standing at the gate of the city, he knelt down and gently stroked his head, promising them very seriously: "Don't worry, the plague will end soon."

"Just pass the 'trial,' and soon, everyone will be fine."

"I promise."

He got a lump in his throat, then stretched out his hand and slowly took off the hood, smiled at Ye Changsheng with downcast eyes, and said in a low voice for a long time: "Uncle Zhou, long time no see."

Ye Changsheng looked at the corners of Lu Kan's lips slightly bent: "I haven't heard anyone call me that in many years, and suddenly I feel a little nostalgic when I hear it." He shook his hand again, "But that's all in the past, the past is the past. It’s over, and there’s nothing to talk about. From now on, I’m just Ye Changsheng, if you have to, just call me ‘Uncle Ye’.”

Lu Kan heard Ye Changsheng's words, a little helplessness flashed across his face, but he still nodded, and called out following his intention: "Uncle Ye."

Ye Changsheng didn't feel embarrassed when he heard that the other end really yelled.He responded with a smile, turned around, walked a few steps casually, and stopped beside the stairs.He stretched out his hand and rubbed it on the handrail of the stairs, the smile on his face faded a little, then he raised his eyes to look at the other end, and his voice was a little heavy: "He asked you to remind me?"

Lu Kan pursed the corners of his lips, looking a little struggling.It was silent for a long time, but still had to remind: "Time is running out."

Ye Changsheng lowered his eyes, tapped his finger on the handrail of the stairs a few times without rhythm, and then nodded in response: "Yes, I know."

Looking at Ye Changsheng's appearance, Lu Kan shook the hands hanging on both sides slightly, as if thinking of something, he made up his mind and said suddenly: "Uncle Ye, maybe we can—"

"Hush." ​​Ye Changsheng seemed to know what the other end was going to say. Before he could finish speaking, he raised his right index finger and made a "shut up" gesture on his lips.

He interrupted his words, then glanced at the sky, smiled and said: "The heart of heaven is smaller than the tip of a needle, you don't know, there are some things that shouldn't be said, it's better to rot in your stomach .”

Lu Kan frowned slightly: "But..."

Ye Changsheng shook his head, put his hands down, and leaned against the railing behind him with an extremely calm expression: "That's a deal I made with Tiandao, everything I agreed to, nothing to make people feel unfair .”

Lu Kan looked at Ye Changsheng, and from his pure black eyes, he saw exactly the same eyes as the one he had for more than 100 years.The kind of firm and fearless eyes that will not waver in the slightest.

After a long time, he sighed: "You just trust He Jiuzhong so much? You should have heard my mother talk about it. Most of the people in the Demon Realm are greedy for sex, power and wealth."

"Nonsense! This must be those shameless monks in Kyushu deliberately smearing his poor opponent for evil political purposes!" Ye Changsheng waved his arm and said very seriously: "Your mother was deceived by those monks with sinister intentions! "

Lu Kan: "..."

Ye Changsheng educated Lu Kan with righteous words on his face: "As a good young man who was born in New China and grew up under the red flag, shouldn't the first thing we have to learn is 'don't believe in rumors, don't spread rumors'?"

Lu Kan: "..."

After being serious for a while, Ye Changsheng leaned against the handrail of the stairs and couldn't help laughing again.

After laughing for a while, he stood up and walked in front of Lu Kan. He looked at him quietly, a pair of dark eyes shining with a faint brilliance: "It's okay. I believe I see people."

"That's my Mr. He."

Lu Kan and Ye Changsheng looked at each other for a few seconds, and asked with some confusion: "Like my father and mother?" Then he smiled slowly, "Hey, actually think about it, a person's life It would be nice to actually meet such a person. It's just a pity that I will probably never meet him."

Just as Ye Changsheng was about to say something, a piece of white suddenly flashed across his line of sight, and he showed a slight expression towards the other end, and said meaningfully: "That's not necessarily the case."

Lu Kan didn't seem to understand. He was about to ask a question, but before he could say it, Yan Zheng behind him had already walked to his side in a few steps.

Yan Zheng stopped at Lu Kan's left, and looked around subconsciously, until he was sure that He Jiuzhong was not here, then he seemed to relax his guard a little.Glancing sideways at Lu Kan again, he asked, "Yan Luo has something to tell you over there. Haven't we finished talking yet?"

Lu Kan tilted his head to look at him, put his hood back on, nodded, and said flatly, "It's over, let's go."

Saying that, he turned around and walked a few steps with the other end, as if thinking of something again, his steps paused again, and he turned to Ye Changsheng and said, "By the way, it's about Lu Cheng."

He looked at Ye Changsheng and reminded him in a low voice: "—he already knows your identity, so be careful."

Ye Changsheng nodded: "Is that so?"

After pondering for a while, he chuckled again and raised his eyes to look at Lu Kan.A little light from the street lamp shone into the corridor, dividing Ye Changsheng's face into half-brightness and half-darkness.Looking at it from Lu Kan's angle, I just feel that those pure black eyes look a little strange for some reason.

"But it's good to know."

"About him, it's time for a conclusion."
