[Ancient Sword II] Morning Light Shadow

Discovering that Shen Xi raised a pair of white, fat and cute baby silkworms, even though silkworms are also a kind of insects, even if she had to practice the flute with Shen Xi every night, Shen Ye still couldn't help but burst into tears: My sister finally has a hobby like a normal girl's family. congratulations!

But when you think about it carefully, the father doesn't care about the daughter who can't learn spells and inherit the mantle. My brother is too busy studying all day long to take care of his younger sister. It is reasonable to play with bugs with my knowledge... After all, it is still too lonely, right?

It's not that Shen Ye hasn't thought about finding a playmate for his younger sister, but it's not so easy to find a playmate.Shen Xi is now the daughter of the high priest, and will be the sister of the next high priest in the future. Her high status determines that she should not casually associate with the children of common people.Just like when the old city lord chose playmates for Cangming, after considering various factors including background, temperament, etc., he chose Shen Ye and Shen Xi from among the right-age people.

Let Shen Ye find a suitable child like Shen Ji, wash away his memory and transform his appearance, and make him a meat puppet... He still finds it difficult to accept, and he doesn't even want to become the same person as Shen Ji.With such a hesitation, the matter has been delayed until now.

The person who helped Shen Ye solve this problem was Hua Yue.Recently, a few new apprentices have arrived in the temple, and they will be assigned to various palaces to be trained as low-level priest reserve. The rank of high priest.

——Of course, that is in the future, and now they are still brats who are about the same age as Shen Xi.

Huayue's idea was to find someone from this group of brats who was not particularly rambunctious to be Shen Xi's playmate, but Shen Ye thought about it, and made another request, it must be a girl, and Huayue agreed with the corners of her mouth twitching. .After a few days of observation, Huayue felt that the girl named Congyang who was assigned to the Seven Shalls Palace seemed pretty good, and after consulting Tong Tong, she brought the child to Shen Xi.

The reason why Cong Yang is considered suitable is actually because the child can go in and out of the Seven Kill Palace full of Gu worms with a normal face, and he must also be able to adapt to Shen Xi's behavior of playing with and feeding insects every day... Hua Yue thinks so.

It is said to be a playmate, but it does not mean that Congyang will accompany Shen Xi to raise silkworms every day without doing business.Congyang can also be regarded as a reserve priest, and she has classes in spells, divination, martial arts, etiquette, etc. every day, but unlike Shen Ye who was arrested by the high priest after class, she has relatively more free time, which can be spent on average. Some are used to accompany Shen Xi.

Cong Yang is one year older than Shen Xi, but his height is about the same. Although he wears trousers with arrow sleeves and has a teenager's hairstyle, his facial features are full of heroism, but his body that has begun to develop has obvious feminine signs...

Shen Xi silently withdrew her gaze from the opponent's chest, turned her head and continued to tear the Muhe leaves into small pieces, and put them into the Gu jar that kept the ice silkworms.

Having breasts is great, loli is a rare resource, okay?

Huayue keenly sensed the unilateral tension coming from Shen Xi, so she could only smile dryly: "It's not long since Yang Gang came to the temple, and I haven't been to many places... Sister Huayue has a lot of things these days, if Xiaoxi is free, How about taking her around?"

Is there still time to bring someone here...Although she really wanted to complain, Shen Xi still nodded her face, tied the rabbit doll on her back, put the insect flute in her belt, walked to the door, and looked at the Yang glanced at her and motioned for her to follow.

Cong Yang has a good temper, and also heard about Shen Xi's inability to speak, he didn't feel that she was arrogant, turned to look at Hua Yue, saw her nod, and left with Shen Xi.

Shen Xi followed Shen Ye to run in and out of the temple since she was a child, basically there was no corner she didn't know.The high priest adhered to the principle of preferring shortages to abuses, and the selection of high-ranking priests was quite strict, so there are still nearly half of the vacancies, and the palace is also closed and vacant.In this way, the area for the two children to visit is reduced by half, and Congyang himself works in Qisha Palace, and he went to Ziwei Palace just now. After such a subtraction by Shen Xi, it didn't take long. Take a quick look at the flowers.

So it became two little girls standing in a daze under the evil stone statue in front of the temple.

The combined age of the two lifetimes has passed [-] years, but Shen Xi is still very unsociable, and after being unable to speak, she is naturally silent, and she doesn't feel how sad life is.

However, Huayue kindly finds someone to accompany her, even if she doesn't like Congyang because of subtle same-sex repulsion, Shen Xi doesn't want to discredit Huayue.

So he stretched out his hand to pull the rabbit's ears hanging down to his shoulders, and under Congyang's curious eyes, the rabbit doll lying on Shen Xi's back spoke.

"Congyang, don't you hate Gu worms?"

Although it wasn't Shen Xi himself who was speaking, but Cong Yang felt that probably his own voice was the same.

"I can't say whether I like it or hate it...Does Xiaoxi want to ask, why did I take the initiative to ask to study under the priest of the Seven Kills?"

Shen Xi nodded.As far as she knew, every year after the apprenticeship was over, the number of young priests assigned to the Seven Killing Palace was the least, and those who were willing to take the initiative to go there were even rarer.It's not that Hitomi's personal charm is not enough, but that the things he studies are too small, and not everyone can bear it.

Cong Yang smiled: "On the first day when I followed everyone to visit the Priest of Qisha, he was making a puppet..."

Fuck so heavy?

Because of Huayue, Shen Xi knew that the raw materials used by the Qisha priests to make puppets were actually living people... Could it be that this person in front of him is a fan of human figures?

"...I never thought before that the human body is such a complex and precise thing. I suddenly felt that it would be interesting to study it in depth... Master Hitomi also agreed. If you pass his assessment during the study period, you will officially Accept me as an apprentice and let me continue to study with him."

"...So, analyzing the mysteries of the human body is what you are interested in?"

Cong Yang nodded resolutely: "I don't know how to describe it, but when I saw Hitomi-sama cut the skin and blood vessels, I felt a sense of enlightenment..."

"... Is the door to the new world opened before your eyes?" Shen Xi quietly took a step back.

"Yes, that's the feeling." Cong Yang didn't notice Shen Xi's small movements, and continued to nod vigorously.

"..." Shen Xi raised her forehead... I was wrong.

Seeing the two little girls chatting happily in the square in front of the gate, feeling like they hated seeing each other later, Shen Ye, passing by the vestibule of the temple, nodded in relief.

——It seems that it is right to find a playmate for Xiaoxi. With friends, Xiaoxi is much more cheerful.

Two years later, Shen Ye's face was ashen when he saw the priest of Qisha leading his disciples to cut up the human body and observe the internal organs carefully. Only then did he realize that the original self was really too sweet.

Running out of the Palace of Seven Kills, he saw his sister walking in with a jar of Gu worms.

"Xiao Xi, what are you doing here?" Shen Ye felt as if he was facing an enemy, and was afraid that his sister would accidentally break into the scene of the serial murder and cry in fright. "Tong is teaching his disciples, don't go in and disturb..."

Shen Xi secretly rolled her eyes: "Cong Yang mentioned to me some time ago that fresh materials are hard to come by now, so we should cherish and use them."

"...Why did she tell you this?"

"Ice Silkworm Gu has been successfully cultivated, let me give it to her to try." Shen Xi showed him the Gu jar in his hand, "After the wound has healed up for a few days, we can continue to study."

"..."

Living up to Huayue's expectations, Shen Ye, who finally knew the truth, really collapsed.
