In the darkness, Shi Xianyou looked at him fixedly, raised his hand to caress his face, "Whether it's you before or you now, I like you both."
Wen Xun blinked, shyly avoiding the other party's fiery gaze.He guessed it would be such an answer, and an inexplicable feeling slowly spread in his heart.
Shi Xianyou continued: "Sometimes I regret that we met too late, and sometimes I feel that time flies, and three years have passed in the blink of an eye."
Wen Xun tentatively asked, "What about three years ago?"
"You know that I spent most of my time in closed-door training. At that time, I didn't know any disciples in Xuanji Sect except the master of Wufeng Peak and Hanshi." Shi Xianyou hugged him carefully, "I didn't leave on purpose that day .”
Wen Xun hummed vaguely, and asked quietly, "Then why did you leave?"
"Since I can remember, I have practiced a Xuanji technique with my master. It is a pity that when my master passed away, he failed to fully comprehend it, and everyone thought he had already practiced this technique." Having said that, Shi Xianyou sighed silently.
Wen Xun had never heard Shi Xianyou sigh, this was the first time, and he hoped it would be the last.
Shi Xianyou said: "This technique is called Yimeng Vanity, and it is a forbidden technique of Xuanji Sect. Few people know it. Those who practice this technique will fall into the trap every time the seasons change. Deep sleep, as short as two or three months, as long as half a year, this is why I retreat every year."
In other words... the reason why Shi Xianyou didn't find him in time was because he couldn't wake up at all during that time?Wen Xun was stunned when he learned the truth.
"Then what shall we do next?" Wen Xun asked nervously, "How long will it be until your next time?"
"Don't worry, there will be no next time." Shi Xianyou said: "Since our dual cultivation, I have broken through the last level. I also probably understand the reason why Master has not been able to comprehend. No one can escape Love, he was obviously deeply involved in it but refused to admit it until his death, so he was wrong from the very beginning."
Wen Xun listened to him quietly, whenever he heard the word Shuangxiu, he would immediately think of the original owner and the smiling face in the dream.He knew that he was not that person, and the warmth he embraced belonged to others.
"I have something to ask you." After not hearing Wen Xun's voice for a long time, Shi Xianyou suddenly said, "Who brought you back to Wen's house from Xiaoxiang Bamboo Sea?"
Wen Xun said: "It's my master."
Shi Xianyou said: "Then what about Palace Master Wuxin? Did you visit you while you were sleeping?"
"He..." Wen Xun didn't know why Shi Xianyou asked so carefully, thought he was still jealous, and said truthfully: "I heard from Wen Bo that he came when I was asleep, but he failed to enter Wen's house. door."
"En." Shi Xianyou said thoughtfully, "Then I should thank him."
Wen Xun asked puzzled, "Why?"
Shi Xianyou avoided answering his question, instead he said softly: "It's still early before dawn, sleep a little longer."
The next day, the weather cleared up, and Wen Xun woke up in the dazzling morning light.
Within two days of his absence, Xuandu continued to win the championship, and Fenglin Villa also left Ziye Xuandu.There are only three days left before the end of the championship, and the competition is about to reach its final round.
Under Wen Xun's good talk, Shi Xianyou finally agreed to take him down the mountain to win the championship.On the way, I heard Hanshi mentioned that in just two days, Pengying's Biejia, represented by Biejinghua, has won several rounds in a row, and it is very likely that they will become the champion of Xuandu this time.
Seeing his pensive look, Shi Xianyou deliberately asked, "What's wrong? Are you unhappy that he won the championship? Are you still thinking about that little apprentice of yours?"
Wen Xun nodded without denying that he was indeed thinking about his little apprentice.Ever since he witnessed the lantern disappearing in front of his eyes, he felt a strange feeling.
Before Wen Ruan disappeared, Deng Xiao was still working hard to prepare Xuandu to win the championship, trying to change his own destiny by winning the championship.So, in such a short period of time, who on earth said to pay such a 'price' for moving the Lantern Festival?Let him take the so-called 'shortcut'?
"Wait." A thought flashed by, and Wen Xun immediately stopped, "I want to go to Xuanji Bieyuan, you go first, I'll come back later."
Shi Xianyou guessed what he was going to do, and did not stop him because of it, but said to him in a gentle voice: "Let Hanshi go with you."
Wen Xun nodded, and said in response, "Okay."
They said goodbye temporarily at the intersection and walked in different directions.Wen Xun walked in front, and Han Shi followed closely behind.Someone recognized Wen Xunlai and looked at him from time to time.
"I heard that Deng Xiao died, and died under Xuanji's head."
"This time, the Xuanji Gate can be regarded as forming a bond with Fenglin Villa."
"If you want to blame it, you can blame that Lantern, he was the one who killed the first person, and he deserves it when he dies!"
"Hasn't he already entered the Xuanji sect? Why is he still attacking the same sect?"
"What else can it be for? It's not for Xuandu to win the championship."
"Shh, keep your voice down. See, that person is Wen Xun, Deng Xiao's master. It's rare for a man to be pregnant."
"I see, this pair of masters and apprentices are not very good people. I heard that he is still very close to the master. Who knows what plans he is planning."
From that day on, everything about the Lantern Festival quickly spread in Midnight City.People gave him many titles, such as executioner, and white-eyed wolf.As long as the word "Dengxiao" is mentioned, everyone will show disgusted eyes and utter unbearable words.
This made Wen Xun feel for the first time how terrible people's tongues are.
"Mr. Wen, are you okay?" Han Shi was always watching his face, worried that he would be affected by those rumors.
"I'm fine." Wen Xun said without changing his expression, "They're right. Lantern Festival did kill someone, and it's really strange for a man to be pregnant."
"Mr. Wen, there is a sentence that my subordinates don't know if it should be said or not."
"What are you talking about? Just say it, you don't have to stick to it in front of me." Wen Xun said: "The time I spent at Xuanji Gate is not as good as you, so you don't have to call yourself a subordinate to me."
"Don't dare." Han Shi said: "What I want to say is, Mr. Wen, please rest assured, no matter what happens, the head will choose to trust Mr. Wen."
Hearing this, Wen Xun asked back with a smile, "You're not him, why are you so sure?"
Han Shi paused, and replied truthfully: "Because this subordinate has never seen the sect leader care so much about anyone."
Wen Xun nodded after listening, "I see, thank you."
In a blink of an eye, they had already arrived outside the gate of Xuanji Bieyuan. The gatekeeper recognized Wen Xun and let them in without asking a word.
Since that incident happened, the yard has been locked, and no one else is allowed to approach easily.But because of their special status, those people did not stop the two of them.
Wen Xun stepped into the arch, and glanced at the remaining blood in the courtyard.His memory quickly returned to two days ago, and at the same time, the scene of Deng Xiao being surrounded by everyone appeared in his mind.
'Master, do you trust disciple? ' After hearing no answer, Deng Xiao's eyes were so disappointed, like a wounded child.
What he had been longing for, looking forward to, and carefully guarding was suddenly shattered.Many times, once something breaks, it never sticks back together again.
Would it have ended differently if he had said that sentence earlier?
Whenever he thinks this way, Wen Xun will silently tell himself that the past will never come back.All he can do now is to find out the real murderer who killed Wen Ruan and restore Deng Xiao's innocence.
"Mr. Wen?" Han Shi opened the door for him in front, "Do you want to go in?"
"Yeah." Wen Xun came back to his senses and said, "Go in, you can go in and have a look too."
He found the switch of the darkroom based on his memory, and the heavy stone door slowly opened, and there was still a faint smell of blood in the air.
During this period of time, the symptoms of Wen Xun's embarrassment have eased a lot, and there are very few nausea and vomiting.Perhaps because there are no windows and it is closed, the light in the dark room is very dim.
Wen Xun went in and walked around, but didn't find anything strange, so he beckoned Hanshi to bring the candlestick.
Han Shi handed over the candlestick and asked, "Does Mr. Wen need help?"
Wen Xun glanced at him, decided to use human resources rationally, and said to him, "Come in and see if there are other exits from this dark room."
"Yes." Han Shi went in as promised, looked carefully at the four corners, and then squatted on the ground.
Seeing his abnormal behavior, Wen Xun quickly asked, "What did you find?"
Han Shi was still looking down, reaching out his hand to gently touch the stone bricks on the ground for a while, and sniffing at the tip of his nose for a while.
Wen Xun didn't hear the answer, so he hurriedly asked again: "What's the matter?"
Han Shi frowned and said: "Mr. Hui Wen, this residual blood smells of rust, this person should have been poisoned before he died."
"It's poisoning again..." Wen Xun pondered for a while, then asked, "Then can you tell what kind of poison it is?"
Han Shi shook his head, "Forgive me for my incompetence, I'm just making a judgment."
"It's okay, you've done a good job." Wen Xun squatted down, trying to maintain a comfortable posture without oppressing the abdomen, and a person muttered to himself: "That is to say... Wen Ruan was also killed by someone before he died." The person who poisoned him must have deliberately scratched Wen Ruan's face because he wanted to hide the cause of death. Even the dead are not spared, it's really abominable."
"If Deng Shaozhuang really took the initiative, it shouldn't be unnecessary." Han Shi expressed the doubt in his heart, and didn't continue talking.
"You're right, that's why I'll come here again." After Wen Xun finished speaking, he was about to get up, his eyes swept over the blood on the ground.
He was about to go out with the candlestick in his hand, when suddenly the candlelight revealed shadows on the ground, as if someone left them on purpose.
"Wait a minute." Wen Ruan ordered Han Shi while looking at the traces, "Go get another candlestick, I want to see what is written on the ground."
"Yes." Han Shi helped Wen Xun light half of the dark room as ordered, and asked, "Did Mr. Wen find anything?"
"Yeah." Wen Xun nodded, and pointed out a place for him, "Go here and take a closer look, does it look like someone wrote on the ground? Can you recognize it? I think it is very likely that Wen Ruan left it before his death." of."
!
Wen Xun blinked, shyly avoiding the other party's fiery gaze.He guessed it would be such an answer, and an inexplicable feeling slowly spread in his heart.
