Lying Gun Cannon Fodder Deduction Record
Chapter 66
At the same time, Xu Zhaoran stayed at the hotel.
Xu Zhaoran was sitting in front of the vanity mirror and combing her hair slowly with a mahogany comb. Her long hair was black and fluffy, slightly damp, obviously just washed and not completely dry.After combing a few times, Xu Zhaoran turned her bracelet, and the virtual interface in front of her that no one else could see suddenly changed into a huge vortex.After a while, Xu Zhaoran closed his eyes, opened them again, and spoke to the mirror: "Today Zhao Tuanzhi sent someone to meet me. I'm a little nervous."
It's like talking to the person in the mirror, and it's like talking to yourself.At night, if this scene is seen by others, they will surely make them run away after shouting hell.The expression on Xu Zhaoran's face changed, as if he had transformed into another person's soul.The fact is the same, Zhaoqu shook his hand, and then raised his hand again to make a gesture to comb his hair at any time, "Why do you come to me when you comb your hair? It's too inconvenient to switch."
Xu Zhaoran smiled slightly, and continued to brush his hair: "Saving time, I just go to bed after talking."
Zhaoqu flicked the wooden comb helplessly, combed his hair in front of the mirror, and said, "Didn't you just come to me for Zhao Tuanzhi's matter?" As a martial arts man, if he was nervous, he would have to find a busy person Kaijiao has no time to be the foreign aid of her confidant sister, then... definitely not a character she created.
"Well, that's it. I met Mrs. Wei yesterday. She felt like seeing a ghost when she saw me. She was weird. Does she know me?"
"Well..." Zhaoqu suddenly put down his hand with some guilt, touched the bracelet, and mentioned something that seemed irrelevant, "You don't know your origin yet, do you?"
"My background?" Xu Zhaoran stopped halfway holding the wooden comb.In the mirror, most of her side face was reflected, her brows were slightly frowned, her expression was puzzled and bewildered.From this point of view alone, there is even a little similarity in appearance and charm with Zhao Tuanzhi.
It's just that she couldn't see this angle, this profile, and neither could Zhaoqu.No outsider can see it.
Zhaoqu made her expression become flat again, as if there were no ups and downs of emotion, she continued: "Yes, your background is more complicated. In fact, you are Zhao Tuanzhi's half-sister. Your father You are very ambitious, and you are still at every step, you were placed in the mass grave by him, waiting for Shitai Jingfeng to pass by and pick you up."
Xu Zhaoran opened her eyes wide and looked at her unbelievable self in the mirror in disbelief. She thought about it for a long time, and the two past lives quickly flashed through her mind. You haven't told me all this time?" There was already a hint of anger in the voice.
Zhaoqu showed a guilty conscience: "Because this is also a setting that I didn't have time to write. The readers only know that you are Gu Shengjin's friend, and they don't know anything about the secret relationship between you and Zhao Tuanzhi. Every time before the time when Wei Liangshu came out, he collapsed, so...in order not to waste my energy, I didn't work hard on it, so I forgot to mention it to you." Zhaoqu quietly looked at the picture in the mirror. Looking at her face, she only saw her guilty face, she was relieved, but also lowered her eyelids a little apprehensively.
"I really don't want to know that Wei Liangshu and I still have this relationship." Xu Zhaoran felt that the whole person was not good. She had contact with Wei Liangshu in the first life, but that time she was not the head of Emei. She was cheated miserably by Shen Yu, her master and senior sister were already dead, and Emei was already under Shen Yu's control... Wei Liangshu didn't recognize her at all!Meeting her is like meeting an irrelevant stranger, even worse than a stranger!Looking at her is like looking at a piece of rotten wood by the side of the road... Xu Zhaoran snapped the wooden comb on the dressing table, "Why did you do this kind of plot? I don't understand, so let me be happy Isn't my master's closed disciple not good, I don't want to have anything to do with Wei Liangshu or their Wei family!"
Zhaoqu frowned slightly, "I spent time and effort portraying you, of course your identity will not be simple. Have you ever seen in the martial arts scripts in your world, there are orphan protagonists and orphan supporting characters with simple identities? If so Simple, how can it be called one step at a time, a martial arts world full of intrigues and tricks everywhere? If you have nothing to do with Zhao Tuanzhi, how do you say you are an important female supporting role? Even if you are friends with Gu Shengjin, you have no way With the group, what about the deep connection between you and the protagonist, the value of your existence can't be just to show off your cuteness, right?"
Although everything Zhaoqu said was true, those words sounded a bit cold, and Xu Zhaoran's faint anger turned into real anger: "Then what is the value of my existence? Tell me? For the sake of the so-called not wasting effort, you forced me to be that kind of father?"
Zhaoqu may also realize that what she said was too cruel. As a creator, when she faces a creature with thoughts and personalities, it may be difficult for her to grasp the strength of reason and emotion, especially when the creature begins to question the fact that she was created. when the reason.Zhaoqu looked at Xu Zhaoran with delicate features in the mirror, even though she was the real creator, she didn't know what she looked like before meeting Xu Zhaoran herself.Although the plot of the novel is also described by her, sometimes she also feels that what she does is just a tacit retelling.
Zhaoqu was silent for a while, and said: "You shouldn't ask this question. I have portrayed you, and what I have given you is your identity and character, but it is you who have formed your character, not me, who make every choice. I can't control your actions. Whether it's your value or your meaning to the world, it's not my settings that play the decisive role, but your own choices that play the most important role. Although Wei Liangshu is your father , but do you admit it or not, your attitude towards him is entirely up to you to choose, I can't interfere, do you understand? If I knew that this situation would happen after I die, I would definitely not make such a complicated setting, just Let you be your Emei disciple happily."
"I understand, I understand too well! You asked me to help you with those scriptures, and I did it. Even if I knew that your willpower spreading out would affect Brother Liang's impression of me, I have never regretted it... But you hid such an important matter from me! Did you plan to let me play the family card with Zhao Tuanzhi from the beginning, so as to cover up the fact that I am not Zhaoqu himself at all? You can’t even forget this excuse Take it out, don’t you remember that you once told me that you can do three simulated plot lines at the same time without recording to determine the optimal option? Even if you can clearly remember the choice and deliberation of every detail of each line, you will forget Did you tell me about my life experience? I just ask you, is it the best choice you made after the simulation that you kept it from me?" If Xu Zhaoran could not suppress her voice, even she herself thought she was going to lose Sensible.She should have thought that Zhaoqu wouldn't tell herself everything!
Zhaoqu didn't answer, she lowered her head slightly, picked up the wooden comb on the dressing table, slowly inserted it into her hair, and combed Xu Zhaoran from head to tail one by one. "I said, I don't know what you will do and what choices you will make. The simulation in your brain is just to infer your mental state based on your respective personalities and identities, and then deduce what you will do. It is very easy to make mistakes in the logical chain. What's more, the control of this world is not entirely in my hands. If the control is in my hands, and my derivation of the plot line is considered to be perfect and there are no mistakes, I will also It won't fail again and again. My arrangement for Zhao Tuanzhi to investigate you is to hope that you will push it to his dead uncle. So now... are you going to play the family card?"
"Do you think if I do it deliberately, I can hide it from Zhao Tuanzhi?" Xu Zhaoran's anger subsided, but there was still lingering anger, and his tone was a little aggressive.
"I can't hide it." Zhao Qu smiled slightly.
Her hand paused, Xu Zhaoran took over the body again, she put down the wooden comb, and rubbed the hair with a dry towel, there was no moisture left, but the hair was still soft.After a long time, Xu Zhaoran said: "Although I have never had an older brother, I know how to be a good younger sister."
Zhaoqu smiled again, looking at himself with curvy brows in the mirror, "He will be a good brother."
After a while, Xu Zhaoran asked again: "...I was a move my father deliberately placed in Emei, waiting to recognize me at the right time in the future?"
"Yes."
"Then what happened to my mother?"
"Your mother...was also a Jianghu woman. When she was pregnant with you, she died to save your father. You were rescued from the corpse. Your father found out that you have good bones, and thought it would be more useful for you to stay in the martial arts world." , I left you to Emei."
Xu Zhaoran didn't speak, Zhaoqu waited for a while, and said to her: "Think of it this way, at least your father is not reborn, so you can discover his true face. If your father is also reborn, he will correct himself The biggest mistake he made in this life, once he corrects it, I really can't save this world that is about to collapse."
"What is wrong?"
"It's just that he didn't expect Mrs. Wei, Qi Xinlan, to have only two sons, and she was killed by other women in his backyard. If he had known this earlier, he would have thrown Zhao Tuanzhi to Wudang and left you alone." Let you, Li Daitao, become Wei Xiu, the daughter of Mrs. Wei disguised as a man. Ten years ago, he could make you a saint. I think you will be more satisfied than holding your breath in the back house every day. I like being a saint."
Xu Zhaoran imagined that scene, and thought that if he didn't know anything, he might just hate Mrs. Wei who let him disguise himself as a man, and being tricked by Wei Liangshu, he might help him wholeheartedly if he became a saint , and suddenly my heart became more congested.After a while, she said to Zhaoqu: "Let's not talk about these unreasonable things, do you think there is hope for Gu Shengjin and... Zhao Tuanzhi this time?" A person who has always been like a demon in her heart needs to be kept at arm's length suddenly Xu Zhaoran still couldn't adapt to being his half-brother.
"Before last night, I thought there was a chance of winning, but after last night, Gu Shengjin's favorability has changed. I don't know what happened there. I will pay attention again. You'd better not Look for me, I still have a lot of work to do."
"...It's the first time I heard that ghosts can be very busy."
"That's because you are ignorant, and I'm planning the final retreat." Zhaoqu raised his eyebrows, looking a little mischievous, "This is the last amulet I prepared for you, if this can't save you, then really It's just by chance."
"What is it?"
"A supernatural event that can shock the entire Chinese Internet literary circle." A mysterious smile appeared on Zhaoqu's face, and she shook her arms and stood up after speaking, "Okay, I'm leaving. What you have to remember is , The setting is made by me, there is nothing wrong with it, but all I make is the setting, life, you have to come out on your own." Without waiting for Xu Zhaoran's reaction, she turned the bracelet.The projection screen in front of Xu Zhaoran changed back to its original appearance.It was quiet and there was no disturbance.
Xu Zhaoran left the dressing table in frustration, sat on the bed, and lay down with his clothes on.She lay on the bed for a long time, thinking about it, without any sleepiness, finally sat up suddenly, took out the jade pendant hanging around her neck and looked at it.This is a jade pendant soaked in blood. The master said that she had hung this jade pendant on her body when she picked it up.It's her confidant...
Since it is a token of recognition, if you don't want to recognize your relatives, do you have to destroy it in advance?
Qi Xinlan who just arrived on the roof also saw the jade pendant.She may never forget this jade pendant for the rest of her life.It was Xu Qin's most cherished treasure back then.She lay still for a moment, several times wanted to rush into the house to ask Xu Zhaoran for clarification, but after hesitating for a long time, she decided to get up and leave quietly.
But just as she got up, Xu Zhaoran in the room had already pulled the jade pendant and shouted: "Who?"
The next day, Xu Zhaoran got up early and spent an entire hour dressing up.She is petite and exquisite, and she looks small and cute. Today she is wearing a light yellow white butterfly dress with a floral veil, and she has braided her hair with two strands of black silk next to her cheeks, and tied two small red bells at the end of her hair. , Standing in front of the mirror, the bright and lovely in the past reveals a bit of hazy and graceful beauty.As a Jianghu girl who has to get up early every morning to practice martial arts, Xu Zhaoran, like other Jianghu girls, rarely spends an hour messing with herself when she was in Emei. The habit of more than ten years has continued, going down the mountain, and going outside , Of course, I will not suddenly become thinking about how to dress myself every day.
But love to buy clothes is eternal.In fact, I didn’t have a chance to wear this suit when I was on Mount Emei. I had to prepare to fight with others every day when I went down the mountain, but I didn’t find a chance to wear it... I didn’t expect to wear it on this day.
Xu Zhaoran took a few steps back and forth in front of the mirror, seeing that he had a beautiful posture, which was about as good as a demon saint, and he felt a little satisfied.She smiled at herself in the mirror.If she hadn't known that Zhao Tuanzhi was her elder brother, she wouldn't have put so much thought into taking care of herself.
The last time I cleaned myself up like this was when I went to see Senior Brother Liang...
Xu Zhaoran closed his eyes.
At that time, Senior Brother Liang had only one arm left, and he could no longer use the flying cactus that he had practiced so hard since childhood. Although he was never expelled from Wudang, it was no different from being marginalized.She said she wanted to take him to Emei, but he refused, saying that he would stay in Wudang to take care of Daoist Danyang.
She said that it would be better to bring Daoist Danyang to Emei, so Brother Liang smiled shyly: "Sister Xu's kindness, I appreciate it. But we Wudang disciples will not be cowards who run away when we are in danger. I will not leave Wudang."
The wind was a bit strong that day, and it seemed that sand had entered Xu Zhaoran's eyes.She felt her eyes hurt badly, as if she was about to cry.
After a long time, she said: "But many people have left, even your good friend Xu Tianfeng and Junior Brother Xu have left, why can't you leave too. Although Emei... everyone is not satisfied with Senior Sister Mo, they are always better than Wudang Better."
Brother Liang showed his usual innocent smile again: "It's because they have all left that I can't leave. Junior sister, you... take care of yourself, and be careful in Emei." After he finished speaking, he lifted the only remaining Gently patted Xu Zhaoran's head with his hand, and finally smiled at her shyly, then turned and left.His empty sleeve was rustling in the strong wind.
That was the last time Xu Zhaoran saw Liang Shenqi in his first life.
Zhaoqu said that she was the only one who could retain her memory, which was very special.
In fact, she didn't want it.
She always hoped that she would still be the innocent self in the past, when she met that simple and honest senior brother Liang who couldn't say anything nice and just smirked every day in the most innocent and beautiful years.He doesn't remember every bit of reincarnation in the past, and she doesn't remember those bad pasts, but they can still meet in the dark and become each other's lifelong ties.
is it possible?
Xu Zhaoran asked himself.She stroked the folds of her neckline and smoothed them out, then walked out step by step, locked her own door, and knocked on the door of her senior sister.Xu Zhaoran got straight to the point and asked, "Senior Sister, how am I today?" She smiled and held up the skirt and turned it around in front of Li Youxi, causing the gauze skirt to fly up, like a still innocent, happy, carefree girl .
"Beauty, we are obviously very beautiful. Isn't it just to meet the owner of Jiyue Villa, who is not a man, why are you so interested?" Li Youxi looked at her with a smile.
Xu Zhaoran took Li Youxi's arm affectionately, and whispered to her cheerfully, "I'm going to compare my beauty with Master Zhao Dazhuang! If I can't come back, senior sister, you have to save me~"
"You are so beautiful, you still can't come back." Li Youxi nodded her forehead.
"Why, senior sister thinks I'm not as beautiful as Master Zhao Dazhuang?" Xu Zhaoran feigned anger and pouted.
"In the eyes of Senior Sister, you are naturally much more beautiful than Miss Zhao, but others may not think so." Li Youxi forced a smile.
How could Xu Zhaoran fail to hear that she was flattering him, he stayed in her arms for a long time, laughed enough, and finally left Li Youxi to go to Zhao Tuanzhi's appointment.
Zhao Tuanzhi asked her to meet at a water pavilion.The waterside pavilion is open on all sides, surrounded by lake water, and people feel cool and refreshing when they are in it.Zhao Tuanzhi was already waiting there, a mat was spread out on the floor, a low table was placed on the mat, a set of white porcelain and red glazed tea set was placed on the corner of the table, a branch of ivy was placed on the tea tray and beside the white porcelain, watching others With vitality.
Zhao Tuanzhi sat at the low table leisurely and elegantly, watching the waves of the lake, waiting for her to come.Xu Zhaoran took a deep breath, walked in, and sat on the opposite side of Zhao Tuan with bent legs.Her goose-yellow gauze dress was laid out on the bamboo mat, like a half-closed delicate flower.The breeze is coming, and the gauze skirt is shaking and swinging lightly, which makes people more beautiful than flowers.
Zhao Tuanzhi reached out to take the teapot, and slowly poured tea into a teacup. The inside of the pure white cup was gradually dyed with a clear tung red color, and the tea rippled.Zhao Tuanzhi gently put the teacup in front of Xu Zhaoran, made a gesture of invitation, and said, "This is a unique tea in a valley in central Hubei. It is rumored that the local people believe that drinking this tea often can cure all diseases. A lot of tea is prepared every day, and people there usually drink tea instead of water for life. If you want me to say, all kinds of diseases can’t be cured, but the taste is very mellow. It’s not unreasonable for everyone to love to drink.”
Xu Zhaoran took the teacup and held it in his hand, took a sip, and then smiled at Zhao Tuanzhi, her delicate eyebrows and eyes curved into a crescent moon: "It must be that Master Zhao didn't invite me here for tea. Bar?"
Zhao Tuanzhi poured himself a cup of tea indifferently, "Then I'll make it clear that people don't speak secretly. Miss Xu is really the author of the story, Zhaoqu? I think Zhaoqu's artistic conception is like two people with the girl. "
"Then do you think there is anyone else besides me? I think you should have investigated before you invited me here."
Zhao Tuanzhi's face remained unchanged, and he was not surprised by this, he just said: "Then, I have a few questions for Miss Xu. How did you know about Princess Wanyu?"
"Ask someone to find out."
"Suoxing Pavilion?" Zhao Tuanzhi showed a trace of curiosity.His dark eyes looked over, as if he was looking at Zhaoqu, but also as if he was spying on another hard-to-see soul through her.
"No. The Suoxinge family is not the only one in this world, don't you think so?" Xu Zhaoran let him observe and doubt, took another sip of tea calmly, drank all the tea, and held up the teacup to Zhao Tuan. She smiled lightly, not at all afraid that Zhao Tuanzhi would lay material in it, "I also found out about Wei Xiu, the son of the Marquis of Zhenbei, and wrote Gumeng based on him and his childhood friends."
"Wei Xiu." Zhao Tuanzhi twitched his brows slightly, held back his breath, and said, "I've only read his information, and it seems that he is not as legendary as Gumeng wrote."
Xu Zhaoran tilted his head, and smiled at Zhao Tuanzhi across the low table: "Oh, let's not use bureaucratic accents, how tiring it is to say this. I know you are the real Wei Xiu, and I know that you are the real Wei Xiu. Ten years have passed since the saint of the Demon Sect. As for why Suo Xingge didn't classify these materials into Wei Xiu's personal file, that's Suo Xingge's business, and I don't intend to criticize."
Zhao Tuanzhi frowned, and looked at Xu Zhaoran seriously, and Xu Zhaoran also slowly put away his smile, with a serious face.The wind on the river was still blowing slowly, and it was soft and cool on their faces, but it couldn't get into each other's tense hearts.Xu Zhaoran knew that at this moment, Zhao Tuanzhi might attack him.Although he is a calculating person, sometimes he is self-willed and plays cards completely against common sense.
Zhao Tuanzhi put down the teacup, scraped the table with his fingertips and retracted it inch by inch, and finally landed on the hilt of the sword beside his waist: "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you here?"
"You won't." Xu Zhaoran smiled slightly, and seemed to drop a bombshell lightly, "We are half-brothers and sisters. You and I are the same way."
Zhao Tuanzhi frowned, his eyes widened slightly, and he looked at Xu Zhaoran in disbelief.He looked at Xu Zhaoran carefully, and found that Xu Zhaoran was born completely different from him, and they didn't have the same style. In fact, it was hard to tell from her appearance that she had any blood relationship with him.But it cannot be denied that the stories she described revolved around the characters in the Zhenbeihou Mansion. If it wasn't for her family, it would be hard to imagine anyone who would focus on the investigation to this extent... After a while, his eyes turned cold, and he sneered: "Impossible. Regardless of whether we are siblings or not, I just want to ask you, if we are fellow travelers, how do you explain your position in your novel? You praised Princess Wanyu and him as true love in the incident of Princess Wanyu , You wrote in the old dream that my whole family loves me? It’s a nonsense, I find it hard to believe that you and I are on the same side.”
"The one who fell in love with Princess Wanyu was another secret guard of hers, and had no direct relationship with Zhenbeihou. But Zhenbeihou took advantage of this relationship. I promised others that I would not reveal the specific situation, so don't ask me again. "
Zhao Tuanzhi continued to ask: "I made a special trip to check on you. How could it be someone else who has something to do with Princess Wanyu?"
"It's someone else, but you don't know it. That person is dead, so let's not discuss it, shall we?"
"Okay, so what about my business? Can I still get my own memory wrong?" Zhao Tuanzhi had a cruel smile on his lips, which was an invisible coercion, as if he might strike at any time Killed Xu Zhaoran.
Xu Zhaoran also thought about this all night.Zhaoqu definitely had a purpose in writing that way.She couldn't say that she didn't believe Zhaoqu's words at all, but she couldn't say that she believed them completely either.In a novel world where the world may collapse at any time and everyone is desperate, trust can sometimes become particularly strong, and sometimes it can be particularly fragile.On this matter, Xu Zhaoran couldn't particularly trust Zhaoqu.She has limited time, so it would be a waste of time for her to put in effort to write a storybook and spread it in this world.
That's why Xu Zhaoran thinks that Zhaoqu deliberately concealed her life experience.If Zhaoqu had said earlier, she would not have done this for her.As an abandoned daughter of Wei Liangshu, to write about another abandoned brother who is doted on by that father?If she could agree to replace Zhaoqu before the story book came out, she wouldn't be Xu Zhaoran!
Xu Zhaoran opened his mouth after deliberation: "There are two reasons. The first one is because I can't let others see that I'm writing what happened in the Zhenbeihou Mansion at a glance. If it attracts attention, especially if it attracts... Zhenbeihou's attention, I will definitely suffer. Are you right? The second is because I found you when I checked Zhenbeihou, and I also got some from your uncle's mouth from others. Reliable news. I have no relatives. I don’t know what it’s like to have relatives, but I don’t want that kind of father. Contacting you when others are noticing, I want to attract your attention, I hope that one day you will come to me when you see the words that the person involved can only understand. So I... made it up."
Xu Zhaoran spoke word by word, and finally lowered his head, exposing the top of his head to Zhao Tuanzhi.If he wanted to, one palm could shatter her sky cap and kill her.Xu Zhaoran, who had practiced martial arts in Emei since he was a child, could not be clear about this.
After all, she brought all these unreasonable things into her own life experience, and smoothed out these unreasonable things that were so abrupt.This may be a manifestation of Zhaoqu's willpower, or it may be a choice she made herself, as Zhaoqu said. In any case, the development of the plot line is still within the reasonable range that Zhaoqu speculates.
Zhao Tuanzhi tightened his fingers holding the teacup slightly, listening and thinking quietly.
The term half-brother and sister has always been labeled as antagonism and estrangement in his childhood memory, and the occasional collaborator is just an ally. It is very likely that he is on your team in this incident, and will be in the next incident. Standing on someone else's team for some reason.He used to think that his biological mother and his half-brother would always be on his side, that they could love each other and naturally isolate others with malicious intentions.
But it was later discovered that this was just his naive childhood vision. In a mother's heart, there is a difference between what is more important than what is more important, and there is also the difference between abandoning a pawn and saving a car.
He's given up on it all.
Now someone suddenly jumped out and told him that I am your half-sister.I'm on the same team as you.
Zhao Tuanzhi felt a little dazed for a moment.I don't know what to do with this "sister".
But that was only for a moment.His expression was always indifferent, and he didn't change easily, but now he was stunned for a moment, and Xu Zhaoran couldn't see why.
A moment later, Zhao Tuanzhi asked in a cold tone: "Then how do you prove that you and I are all the same? I have already severed ties with the Zhenbei Hou Mansion."
Xu Zhaoran and him looked at each other for a moment, then took out his own jade pendant from his neck, and shook it in front of him: "This jade pendant is the love pendant between Zhenbei Hou and my mother. He will recognize me back in the future." , will definitely make a fuss about it, and now I will throw it away."
Xu Zhaoran walked to the edge of the waterside pavilion, and threw his internal strength into the lake!With a crash, the jade pendant fell far into the lake.Zhao Tuanzhi looked at her calmly, without much shock.Xu Zhaoran also knew that although this physical evidence was important, it was just her side of the story, and Zhao Tuanzhi would not believe it too much.
She didn't expect Zhao Tuanzhi to believe in herself on the spot.
The Zhao Tuanzhi that Zhaoqu knows may be the current Zhao Tuanzhi, but she has seen another Zhao Tuanzhi before. It is impossible for him to believe one thing easily. He has many ways to check you, and he will never Will show mercy.But blood relationship is really a wonderful thing, Xu Zhaoran is not afraid of him anymore.She walked in front of Zhao Tuanzhi, bent over with her hands behind her back and smiled at him with crooked eyebrows and eyes: "Anyway, we already know each other now, right?"
Zhao Tuanzhi didn't smile or have other expressions, his dark eyes looked at her quietly.Xu Zhaoran looked at him carefully for a moment, carefully pulled out an index finger from behind, waved it in front of Zhao Tuanzhi, tapped it lightly on the center of his brow, and smiled.The Emei faction didn't have finger and claw skills, and Zhao Tuanzhi didn't avoid it, wanting to see what she was going to do.Then he felt Xu Zhaoran's soft fingertips sticking to the center of his eyebrows.
She did nothing.It seems to have done something.
"I've been meaning to say this for a long time, you're so pretty as a girl." Xu Zhaoran withdrew his fingers contentedly, and straightened up with a smile.
If someone else who knew his gender said that, Zhao Tuanzhi might be angry, but maybe Xu Zhaoran's tone was a little too sincere, and he couldn't be angry.Zhao Tuanzhi turned his gaze to the shore in the distance, perhaps because his eyesight was too good, he actually saw Gu Shengjin.Gu Shengjin seemed to be looking this way, but he should have turned his head away when he saw him turn his head.Since the night before yesterday, Gu Shengjin has been in a state of evasion.He went back with him last night, and went back to his room without stopping, without saying a word to him.
Also disappeared early this morning.
Zhao Tuanzhi was not without loss in his heart.
Xu Zhaoran also followed his gaze, probably recognized Gu Shengjin, smiled again, and asked Zhao Tuanzhi, "Do you know what the biggest role of having a younger sister is?"
Zhao Tuanzhi glanced at her without asking.Xu Zhaoran shook his head, and looked at Zhao Tuanzhi jokingly: "You can also serve as an emotional consultant for free. If you have something on your mind, no one will tell you, I will be happy to solve your worries."
Zhao Tuanzhi: "..."
He stopped looking at Gu Shengjin on the shore, turned around again, and poured himself a cup of tea slowly.Of course, he would not really ask Xu Zhaoran about his relationship.
Xu Zhaoran was not in a hurry, picked up the empty teacup in front of him and handed it to Zhao Tuanzhi: "Brother, have another cup."
Zhao Tuanzhi glanced at her, and he made tea for her.After brewing, he said: "Don't shout in front of others. Including Gu Shengjin."
"Okay!" Xu Zhaoran happily agreed, and then cheerfully drank the cup of tea that had become warm.
In fact, the water pavilion is a bit far from the shore, and it is impossible for ordinary people to see the clear water pavilion from the shore, but for martial arts practitioners, this distance is not very difficult.Gu Shengjin saw that Zhao Tuanzhi and Xu Zhaoran had a happy conversation?Can we even talk about intimacy?When did this happen? Didn't they have no intersection at all two days ago?The sword appreciating meeting sat together and never spoke to each other, and Zhao Tuanzhi's mother didn't see him and Xu Zhaoran having friendship on the day he came.And didn't he say that Xu Zhaoran is Zhaoqu, and he disagrees with Zhaoqu's position?Gu Shengjin couldn't figure it out, he lowered his head and thought for a while, then shook his head, thinking that there is nothing wrong with this, maybe in the future Zhao Tuanzhi found out that he was different from what he thought after getting in touch with Xu Zhaoran himself, so he didn't intend to Find her to settle accounts, but plan to be friends with her?Maybe he will fall in love with Xu Zhaoran in the future, and come to a "marriage story created by a real person and a fan story"?
Thinking of this, he was a little dazed for some reason.
"Brother Gu, are you looking deep?" Huan Hao came out from the side, touched Gu Shengjin's arm, and asked inarticulately.While asking, he was seriously eating his mutton barbecue skewers.
Gu Shengjin came back to his senses and smiled at Huan Hao: "It's nothing."
Huan Hao had already looked over, and said, "Isn't that Sheng... Zhuangzhu Zhao? Brother Gu, why do you like her so much? I think she is so scary."
"What...?!" Gu Shengjin was taken aback by him, "Don't talk nonsense, since when did I like Zhao Tuanzhi?" After talking about it, he was still afraid that others would hear it, so he grabbed Huan Hao He lowered his voice.
Huan Hao looked at Gu Shengjin strangely, and after biting off the last bite of mutton skewers, he licked his thumb that was stained with oil star and cumin, and said, "No way, Brother Gu, don't you like it? I think you like it very much." oh."
"How did you know that I like it?" Gu Shengjin couldn't laugh or cry, and there was still a feeling that there was no reason for it, and there was no place to redress the grievance.
Huan Hao found a place to throw the skewers, and replied as a matter of course: "You can see it everywhere."
Gu Shengjin: "..." He decided to change the subject, coughed and asked, "By the way, why are you so afraid of him?"
"The owner kills people without blinking an eye. He almost buried me..." Huan Hao shrugged his shoulders, looked in the direction of the water pavilion, and suddenly stopped talking about it, and said instead, "Brother Gu, I still want to eat ten Skewers."
Gu Shengjin wanted to find out what was going on, but seeing that Huan Hao's mind was all on eating, he had no choice but to hold back temporarily, took out his purse, looked at Huan Hao, and was no longer interested in taking him around to eat, so he put The money bag was handed to him, "Buy it yourself." Huan Hao pouted, took the money bag and bought it on the street when he came.Gu Shengjin walked back and forth on the bank for a few steps, but before he could figure out what was going on, he suddenly felt a figure flicker in front of him, and he subconsciously raised his hand to make a defensive gesture, and when he looked up, it turned out to be Zhao Tuanzhi.
There was a faint smile in Zhao Tuanzhi's eyes: "You came to see me?"
"I went out shopping with Huan Hao, and I just came here." Gu Shengjin rubbed his nose guiltily, took half a step back without any trace, and distanced himself from Zhao Tuanzhi.Zhao Tuanzhi looked around and asked, "Where's Huanhao?"
"Go shopping."
"Oh."
Obviously there was no ups and downs in the tone, but Gu Shengjin heard the meaning of "I don't believe it".He was eager to prove to Zhao Tuanzhi that he had really brought Huan Hao to this place for shopping. He waited and looked around, but he still couldn't see Huan Hao, so he said to Zhao Tuanzhi, "I'll go. Find him."
Zhao Tuanzhi grabbed his arm, "Don't worry about him, why don't you talk about our business first?"
"...What's the matter with us?"
"Why are you avoiding me?"
"Yes, yes?" Gu Shengjin looked around with a stiff face, wanting to leave
Xu Zhaoran was sitting in front of the vanity mirror and combing her hair slowly with a mahogany comb. Her long hair was black and fluffy, slightly damp, obviously just washed and not completely dry.After combing a few times, Xu Zhaoran turned her bracelet, and the virtual interface in front of her that no one else could see suddenly changed into a huge vortex.After a while, Xu Zhaoran closed his eyes, opened them again, and spoke to the mirror: "Today Zhao Tuanzhi sent someone to meet me. I'm a little nervous."
It's like talking to the person in the mirror, and it's like talking to yourself.At night, if this scene is seen by others, they will surely make them run away after shouting hell.The expression on Xu Zhaoran's face changed, as if he had transformed into another person's soul.The fact is the same, Zhaoqu shook his hand, and then raised his hand again to make a gesture to comb his hair at any time, "Why do you come to me when you comb your hair? It's too inconvenient to switch."
Xu Zhaoran smiled slightly, and continued to brush his hair: "Saving time, I just go to bed after talking."
Zhaoqu flicked the wooden comb helplessly, combed his hair in front of the mirror, and said, "Didn't you just come to me for Zhao Tuanzhi's matter?" As a martial arts man, if he was nervous, he would have to find a busy person Kaijiao has no time to be the foreign aid of her confidant sister, then... definitely not a character she created.
"Well, that's it. I met Mrs. Wei yesterday. She felt like seeing a ghost when she saw me. She was weird. Does she know me?"
"Well..." Zhaoqu suddenly put down his hand with some guilt, touched the bracelet, and mentioned something that seemed irrelevant, "You don't know your origin yet, do you?"
"My background?" Xu Zhaoran stopped halfway holding the wooden comb.In the mirror, most of her side face was reflected, her brows were slightly frowned, her expression was puzzled and bewildered.From this point of view alone, there is even a little similarity in appearance and charm with Zhao Tuanzhi.
It's just that she couldn't see this angle, this profile, and neither could Zhaoqu.No outsider can see it.
Zhaoqu made her expression become flat again, as if there were no ups and downs of emotion, she continued: "Yes, your background is more complicated. In fact, you are Zhao Tuanzhi's half-sister. Your father You are very ambitious, and you are still at every step, you were placed in the mass grave by him, waiting for Shitai Jingfeng to pass by and pick you up."
Xu Zhaoran opened her eyes wide and looked at her unbelievable self in the mirror in disbelief. She thought about it for a long time, and the two past lives quickly flashed through her mind. You haven't told me all this time?" There was already a hint of anger in the voice.
Zhaoqu showed a guilty conscience: "Because this is also a setting that I didn't have time to write. The readers only know that you are Gu Shengjin's friend, and they don't know anything about the secret relationship between you and Zhao Tuanzhi. Every time before the time when Wei Liangshu came out, he collapsed, so...in order not to waste my energy, I didn't work hard on it, so I forgot to mention it to you." Zhaoqu quietly looked at the picture in the mirror. Looking at her face, she only saw her guilty face, she was relieved, but also lowered her eyelids a little apprehensively.
"I really don't want to know that Wei Liangshu and I still have this relationship." Xu Zhaoran felt that the whole person was not good. She had contact with Wei Liangshu in the first life, but that time she was not the head of Emei. She was cheated miserably by Shen Yu, her master and senior sister were already dead, and Emei was already under Shen Yu's control... Wei Liangshu didn't recognize her at all!Meeting her is like meeting an irrelevant stranger, even worse than a stranger!Looking at her is like looking at a piece of rotten wood by the side of the road... Xu Zhaoran snapped the wooden comb on the dressing table, "Why did you do this kind of plot? I don't understand, so let me be happy Isn't my master's closed disciple not good, I don't want to have anything to do with Wei Liangshu or their Wei family!"
Zhaoqu frowned slightly, "I spent time and effort portraying you, of course your identity will not be simple. Have you ever seen in the martial arts scripts in your world, there are orphan protagonists and orphan supporting characters with simple identities? If so Simple, how can it be called one step at a time, a martial arts world full of intrigues and tricks everywhere? If you have nothing to do with Zhao Tuanzhi, how do you say you are an important female supporting role? Even if you are friends with Gu Shengjin, you have no way With the group, what about the deep connection between you and the protagonist, the value of your existence can't be just to show off your cuteness, right?"
Although everything Zhaoqu said was true, those words sounded a bit cold, and Xu Zhaoran's faint anger turned into real anger: "Then what is the value of my existence? Tell me? For the sake of the so-called not wasting effort, you forced me to be that kind of father?"
Zhaoqu may also realize that what she said was too cruel. As a creator, when she faces a creature with thoughts and personalities, it may be difficult for her to grasp the strength of reason and emotion, especially when the creature begins to question the fact that she was created. when the reason.Zhaoqu looked at Xu Zhaoran with delicate features in the mirror, even though she was the real creator, she didn't know what she looked like before meeting Xu Zhaoran herself.Although the plot of the novel is also described by her, sometimes she also feels that what she does is just a tacit retelling.
Zhaoqu was silent for a while, and said: "You shouldn't ask this question. I have portrayed you, and what I have given you is your identity and character, but it is you who have formed your character, not me, who make every choice. I can't control your actions. Whether it's your value or your meaning to the world, it's not my settings that play the decisive role, but your own choices that play the most important role. Although Wei Liangshu is your father , but do you admit it or not, your attitude towards him is entirely up to you to choose, I can't interfere, do you understand? If I knew that this situation would happen after I die, I would definitely not make such a complicated setting, just Let you be your Emei disciple happily."
"I understand, I understand too well! You asked me to help you with those scriptures, and I did it. Even if I knew that your willpower spreading out would affect Brother Liang's impression of me, I have never regretted it... But you hid such an important matter from me! Did you plan to let me play the family card with Zhao Tuanzhi from the beginning, so as to cover up the fact that I am not Zhaoqu himself at all? You can’t even forget this excuse Take it out, don’t you remember that you once told me that you can do three simulated plot lines at the same time without recording to determine the optimal option? Even if you can clearly remember the choice and deliberation of every detail of each line, you will forget Did you tell me about my life experience? I just ask you, is it the best choice you made after the simulation that you kept it from me?" If Xu Zhaoran could not suppress her voice, even she herself thought she was going to lose Sensible.She should have thought that Zhaoqu wouldn't tell herself everything!
Zhaoqu didn't answer, she lowered her head slightly, picked up the wooden comb on the dressing table, slowly inserted it into her hair, and combed Xu Zhaoran from head to tail one by one. "I said, I don't know what you will do and what choices you will make. The simulation in your brain is just to infer your mental state based on your respective personalities and identities, and then deduce what you will do. It is very easy to make mistakes in the logical chain. What's more, the control of this world is not entirely in my hands. If the control is in my hands, and my derivation of the plot line is considered to be perfect and there are no mistakes, I will also It won't fail again and again. My arrangement for Zhao Tuanzhi to investigate you is to hope that you will push it to his dead uncle. So now... are you going to play the family card?"
"Do you think if I do it deliberately, I can hide it from Zhao Tuanzhi?" Xu Zhaoran's anger subsided, but there was still lingering anger, and his tone was a little aggressive.
"I can't hide it." Zhao Qu smiled slightly.
Her hand paused, Xu Zhaoran took over the body again, she put down the wooden comb, and rubbed the hair with a dry towel, there was no moisture left, but the hair was still soft.After a long time, Xu Zhaoran said: "Although I have never had an older brother, I know how to be a good younger sister."
Zhaoqu smiled again, looking at himself with curvy brows in the mirror, "He will be a good brother."
After a while, Xu Zhaoran asked again: "...I was a move my father deliberately placed in Emei, waiting to recognize me at the right time in the future?"
"Yes."
"Then what happened to my mother?"
"Your mother...was also a Jianghu woman. When she was pregnant with you, she died to save your father. You were rescued from the corpse. Your father found out that you have good bones, and thought it would be more useful for you to stay in the martial arts world." , I left you to Emei."
Xu Zhaoran didn't speak, Zhaoqu waited for a while, and said to her: "Think of it this way, at least your father is not reborn, so you can discover his true face. If your father is also reborn, he will correct himself The biggest mistake he made in this life, once he corrects it, I really can't save this world that is about to collapse."
"What is wrong?"
"It's just that he didn't expect Mrs. Wei, Qi Xinlan, to have only two sons, and she was killed by other women in his backyard. If he had known this earlier, he would have thrown Zhao Tuanzhi to Wudang and left you alone." Let you, Li Daitao, become Wei Xiu, the daughter of Mrs. Wei disguised as a man. Ten years ago, he could make you a saint. I think you will be more satisfied than holding your breath in the back house every day. I like being a saint."
Xu Zhaoran imagined that scene, and thought that if he didn't know anything, he might just hate Mrs. Wei who let him disguise himself as a man, and being tricked by Wei Liangshu, he might help him wholeheartedly if he became a saint , and suddenly my heart became more congested.After a while, she said to Zhaoqu: "Let's not talk about these unreasonable things, do you think there is hope for Gu Shengjin and... Zhao Tuanzhi this time?" A person who has always been like a demon in her heart needs to be kept at arm's length suddenly Xu Zhaoran still couldn't adapt to being his half-brother.
"Before last night, I thought there was a chance of winning, but after last night, Gu Shengjin's favorability has changed. I don't know what happened there. I will pay attention again. You'd better not Look for me, I still have a lot of work to do."
"...It's the first time I heard that ghosts can be very busy."
"That's because you are ignorant, and I'm planning the final retreat." Zhaoqu raised his eyebrows, looking a little mischievous, "This is the last amulet I prepared for you, if this can't save you, then really It's just by chance."
"What is it?"
"A supernatural event that can shock the entire Chinese Internet literary circle." A mysterious smile appeared on Zhaoqu's face, and she shook her arms and stood up after speaking, "Okay, I'm leaving. What you have to remember is , The setting is made by me, there is nothing wrong with it, but all I make is the setting, life, you have to come out on your own." Without waiting for Xu Zhaoran's reaction, she turned the bracelet.The projection screen in front of Xu Zhaoran changed back to its original appearance.It was quiet and there was no disturbance.
Xu Zhaoran left the dressing table in frustration, sat on the bed, and lay down with his clothes on.She lay on the bed for a long time, thinking about it, without any sleepiness, finally sat up suddenly, took out the jade pendant hanging around her neck and looked at it.This is a jade pendant soaked in blood. The master said that she had hung this jade pendant on her body when she picked it up.It's her confidant...
Since it is a token of recognition, if you don't want to recognize your relatives, do you have to destroy it in advance?
Qi Xinlan who just arrived on the roof also saw the jade pendant.She may never forget this jade pendant for the rest of her life.It was Xu Qin's most cherished treasure back then.She lay still for a moment, several times wanted to rush into the house to ask Xu Zhaoran for clarification, but after hesitating for a long time, she decided to get up and leave quietly.
But just as she got up, Xu Zhaoran in the room had already pulled the jade pendant and shouted: "Who?"
The next day, Xu Zhaoran got up early and spent an entire hour dressing up.She is petite and exquisite, and she looks small and cute. Today she is wearing a light yellow white butterfly dress with a floral veil, and she has braided her hair with two strands of black silk next to her cheeks, and tied two small red bells at the end of her hair. , Standing in front of the mirror, the bright and lovely in the past reveals a bit of hazy and graceful beauty.As a Jianghu girl who has to get up early every morning to practice martial arts, Xu Zhaoran, like other Jianghu girls, rarely spends an hour messing with herself when she was in Emei. The habit of more than ten years has continued, going down the mountain, and going outside , Of course, I will not suddenly become thinking about how to dress myself every day.
But love to buy clothes is eternal.In fact, I didn’t have a chance to wear this suit when I was on Mount Emei. I had to prepare to fight with others every day when I went down the mountain, but I didn’t find a chance to wear it... I didn’t expect to wear it on this day.
Xu Zhaoran took a few steps back and forth in front of the mirror, seeing that he had a beautiful posture, which was about as good as a demon saint, and he felt a little satisfied.She smiled at herself in the mirror.If she hadn't known that Zhao Tuanzhi was her elder brother, she wouldn't have put so much thought into taking care of herself.
The last time I cleaned myself up like this was when I went to see Senior Brother Liang...
Xu Zhaoran closed his eyes.
At that time, Senior Brother Liang had only one arm left, and he could no longer use the flying cactus that he had practiced so hard since childhood. Although he was never expelled from Wudang, it was no different from being marginalized.She said she wanted to take him to Emei, but he refused, saying that he would stay in Wudang to take care of Daoist Danyang.
She said that it would be better to bring Daoist Danyang to Emei, so Brother Liang smiled shyly: "Sister Xu's kindness, I appreciate it. But we Wudang disciples will not be cowards who run away when we are in danger. I will not leave Wudang."
The wind was a bit strong that day, and it seemed that sand had entered Xu Zhaoran's eyes.She felt her eyes hurt badly, as if she was about to cry.
After a long time, she said: "But many people have left, even your good friend Xu Tianfeng and Junior Brother Xu have left, why can't you leave too. Although Emei... everyone is not satisfied with Senior Sister Mo, they are always better than Wudang Better."
Brother Liang showed his usual innocent smile again: "It's because they have all left that I can't leave. Junior sister, you... take care of yourself, and be careful in Emei." After he finished speaking, he lifted the only remaining Gently patted Xu Zhaoran's head with his hand, and finally smiled at her shyly, then turned and left.His empty sleeve was rustling in the strong wind.
That was the last time Xu Zhaoran saw Liang Shenqi in his first life.
Zhaoqu said that she was the only one who could retain her memory, which was very special.
In fact, she didn't want it.
She always hoped that she would still be the innocent self in the past, when she met that simple and honest senior brother Liang who couldn't say anything nice and just smirked every day in the most innocent and beautiful years.He doesn't remember every bit of reincarnation in the past, and she doesn't remember those bad pasts, but they can still meet in the dark and become each other's lifelong ties.
is it possible?
Xu Zhaoran asked himself.She stroked the folds of her neckline and smoothed them out, then walked out step by step, locked her own door, and knocked on the door of her senior sister.Xu Zhaoran got straight to the point and asked, "Senior Sister, how am I today?" She smiled and held up the skirt and turned it around in front of Li Youxi, causing the gauze skirt to fly up, like a still innocent, happy, carefree girl .
"Beauty, we are obviously very beautiful. Isn't it just to meet the owner of Jiyue Villa, who is not a man, why are you so interested?" Li Youxi looked at her with a smile.
Xu Zhaoran took Li Youxi's arm affectionately, and whispered to her cheerfully, "I'm going to compare my beauty with Master Zhao Dazhuang! If I can't come back, senior sister, you have to save me~"
"You are so beautiful, you still can't come back." Li Youxi nodded her forehead.
"Why, senior sister thinks I'm not as beautiful as Master Zhao Dazhuang?" Xu Zhaoran feigned anger and pouted.
"In the eyes of Senior Sister, you are naturally much more beautiful than Miss Zhao, but others may not think so." Li Youxi forced a smile.
How could Xu Zhaoran fail to hear that she was flattering him, he stayed in her arms for a long time, laughed enough, and finally left Li Youxi to go to Zhao Tuanzhi's appointment.
Zhao Tuanzhi asked her to meet at a water pavilion.The waterside pavilion is open on all sides, surrounded by lake water, and people feel cool and refreshing when they are in it.Zhao Tuanzhi was already waiting there, a mat was spread out on the floor, a low table was placed on the mat, a set of white porcelain and red glazed tea set was placed on the corner of the table, a branch of ivy was placed on the tea tray and beside the white porcelain, watching others With vitality.
Zhao Tuanzhi sat at the low table leisurely and elegantly, watching the waves of the lake, waiting for her to come.Xu Zhaoran took a deep breath, walked in, and sat on the opposite side of Zhao Tuan with bent legs.Her goose-yellow gauze dress was laid out on the bamboo mat, like a half-closed delicate flower.The breeze is coming, and the gauze skirt is shaking and swinging lightly, which makes people more beautiful than flowers.
Zhao Tuanzhi reached out to take the teapot, and slowly poured tea into a teacup. The inside of the pure white cup was gradually dyed with a clear tung red color, and the tea rippled.Zhao Tuanzhi gently put the teacup in front of Xu Zhaoran, made a gesture of invitation, and said, "This is a unique tea in a valley in central Hubei. It is rumored that the local people believe that drinking this tea often can cure all diseases. A lot of tea is prepared every day, and people there usually drink tea instead of water for life. If you want me to say, all kinds of diseases can’t be cured, but the taste is very mellow. It’s not unreasonable for everyone to love to drink.”
Xu Zhaoran took the teacup and held it in his hand, took a sip, and then smiled at Zhao Tuanzhi, her delicate eyebrows and eyes curved into a crescent moon: "It must be that Master Zhao didn't invite me here for tea. Bar?"
Zhao Tuanzhi poured himself a cup of tea indifferently, "Then I'll make it clear that people don't speak secretly. Miss Xu is really the author of the story, Zhaoqu? I think Zhaoqu's artistic conception is like two people with the girl. "
"Then do you think there is anyone else besides me? I think you should have investigated before you invited me here."
Zhao Tuanzhi's face remained unchanged, and he was not surprised by this, he just said: "Then, I have a few questions for Miss Xu. How did you know about Princess Wanyu?"
"Ask someone to find out."
"Suoxing Pavilion?" Zhao Tuanzhi showed a trace of curiosity.His dark eyes looked over, as if he was looking at Zhaoqu, but also as if he was spying on another hard-to-see soul through her.
"No. The Suoxinge family is not the only one in this world, don't you think so?" Xu Zhaoran let him observe and doubt, took another sip of tea calmly, drank all the tea, and held up the teacup to Zhao Tuan. She smiled lightly, not at all afraid that Zhao Tuanzhi would lay material in it, "I also found out about Wei Xiu, the son of the Marquis of Zhenbei, and wrote Gumeng based on him and his childhood friends."
"Wei Xiu." Zhao Tuanzhi twitched his brows slightly, held back his breath, and said, "I've only read his information, and it seems that he is not as legendary as Gumeng wrote."
Xu Zhaoran tilted his head, and smiled at Zhao Tuanzhi across the low table: "Oh, let's not use bureaucratic accents, how tiring it is to say this. I know you are the real Wei Xiu, and I know that you are the real Wei Xiu. Ten years have passed since the saint of the Demon Sect. As for why Suo Xingge didn't classify these materials into Wei Xiu's personal file, that's Suo Xingge's business, and I don't intend to criticize."
Zhao Tuanzhi frowned, and looked at Xu Zhaoran seriously, and Xu Zhaoran also slowly put away his smile, with a serious face.The wind on the river was still blowing slowly, and it was soft and cool on their faces, but it couldn't get into each other's tense hearts.Xu Zhaoran knew that at this moment, Zhao Tuanzhi might attack him.Although he is a calculating person, sometimes he is self-willed and plays cards completely against common sense.
Zhao Tuanzhi put down the teacup, scraped the table with his fingertips and retracted it inch by inch, and finally landed on the hilt of the sword beside his waist: "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you here?"
"You won't." Xu Zhaoran smiled slightly, and seemed to drop a bombshell lightly, "We are half-brothers and sisters. You and I are the same way."
Zhao Tuanzhi frowned, his eyes widened slightly, and he looked at Xu Zhaoran in disbelief.He looked at Xu Zhaoran carefully, and found that Xu Zhaoran was born completely different from him, and they didn't have the same style. In fact, it was hard to tell from her appearance that she had any blood relationship with him.But it cannot be denied that the stories she described revolved around the characters in the Zhenbeihou Mansion. If it wasn't for her family, it would be hard to imagine anyone who would focus on the investigation to this extent... After a while, his eyes turned cold, and he sneered: "Impossible. Regardless of whether we are siblings or not, I just want to ask you, if we are fellow travelers, how do you explain your position in your novel? You praised Princess Wanyu and him as true love in the incident of Princess Wanyu , You wrote in the old dream that my whole family loves me? It’s a nonsense, I find it hard to believe that you and I are on the same side.”
"The one who fell in love with Princess Wanyu was another secret guard of hers, and had no direct relationship with Zhenbeihou. But Zhenbeihou took advantage of this relationship. I promised others that I would not reveal the specific situation, so don't ask me again. "
Zhao Tuanzhi continued to ask: "I made a special trip to check on you. How could it be someone else who has something to do with Princess Wanyu?"
"It's someone else, but you don't know it. That person is dead, so let's not discuss it, shall we?"
"Okay, so what about my business? Can I still get my own memory wrong?" Zhao Tuanzhi had a cruel smile on his lips, which was an invisible coercion, as if he might strike at any time Killed Xu Zhaoran.
Xu Zhaoran also thought about this all night.Zhaoqu definitely had a purpose in writing that way.She couldn't say that she didn't believe Zhaoqu's words at all, but she couldn't say that she believed them completely either.In a novel world where the world may collapse at any time and everyone is desperate, trust can sometimes become particularly strong, and sometimes it can be particularly fragile.On this matter, Xu Zhaoran couldn't particularly trust Zhaoqu.She has limited time, so it would be a waste of time for her to put in effort to write a storybook and spread it in this world.
That's why Xu Zhaoran thinks that Zhaoqu deliberately concealed her life experience.If Zhaoqu had said earlier, she would not have done this for her.As an abandoned daughter of Wei Liangshu, to write about another abandoned brother who is doted on by that father?If she could agree to replace Zhaoqu before the story book came out, she wouldn't be Xu Zhaoran!
Xu Zhaoran opened his mouth after deliberation: "There are two reasons. The first one is because I can't let others see that I'm writing what happened in the Zhenbeihou Mansion at a glance. If it attracts attention, especially if it attracts... Zhenbeihou's attention, I will definitely suffer. Are you right? The second is because I found you when I checked Zhenbeihou, and I also got some from your uncle's mouth from others. Reliable news. I have no relatives. I don’t know what it’s like to have relatives, but I don’t want that kind of father. Contacting you when others are noticing, I want to attract your attention, I hope that one day you will come to me when you see the words that the person involved can only understand. So I... made it up."
Xu Zhaoran spoke word by word, and finally lowered his head, exposing the top of his head to Zhao Tuanzhi.If he wanted to, one palm could shatter her sky cap and kill her.Xu Zhaoran, who had practiced martial arts in Emei since he was a child, could not be clear about this.
After all, she brought all these unreasonable things into her own life experience, and smoothed out these unreasonable things that were so abrupt.This may be a manifestation of Zhaoqu's willpower, or it may be a choice she made herself, as Zhaoqu said. In any case, the development of the plot line is still within the reasonable range that Zhaoqu speculates.
Zhao Tuanzhi tightened his fingers holding the teacup slightly, listening and thinking quietly.
The term half-brother and sister has always been labeled as antagonism and estrangement in his childhood memory, and the occasional collaborator is just an ally. It is very likely that he is on your team in this incident, and will be in the next incident. Standing on someone else's team for some reason.He used to think that his biological mother and his half-brother would always be on his side, that they could love each other and naturally isolate others with malicious intentions.
But it was later discovered that this was just his naive childhood vision. In a mother's heart, there is a difference between what is more important than what is more important, and there is also the difference between abandoning a pawn and saving a car.
He's given up on it all.
Now someone suddenly jumped out and told him that I am your half-sister.I'm on the same team as you.
Zhao Tuanzhi felt a little dazed for a moment.I don't know what to do with this "sister".
But that was only for a moment.His expression was always indifferent, and he didn't change easily, but now he was stunned for a moment, and Xu Zhaoran couldn't see why.
A moment later, Zhao Tuanzhi asked in a cold tone: "Then how do you prove that you and I are all the same? I have already severed ties with the Zhenbei Hou Mansion."
Xu Zhaoran and him looked at each other for a moment, then took out his own jade pendant from his neck, and shook it in front of him: "This jade pendant is the love pendant between Zhenbei Hou and my mother. He will recognize me back in the future." , will definitely make a fuss about it, and now I will throw it away."
Xu Zhaoran walked to the edge of the waterside pavilion, and threw his internal strength into the lake!With a crash, the jade pendant fell far into the lake.Zhao Tuanzhi looked at her calmly, without much shock.Xu Zhaoran also knew that although this physical evidence was important, it was just her side of the story, and Zhao Tuanzhi would not believe it too much.
She didn't expect Zhao Tuanzhi to believe in herself on the spot.
The Zhao Tuanzhi that Zhaoqu knows may be the current Zhao Tuanzhi, but she has seen another Zhao Tuanzhi before. It is impossible for him to believe one thing easily. He has many ways to check you, and he will never Will show mercy.But blood relationship is really a wonderful thing, Xu Zhaoran is not afraid of him anymore.She walked in front of Zhao Tuanzhi, bent over with her hands behind her back and smiled at him with crooked eyebrows and eyes: "Anyway, we already know each other now, right?"
Zhao Tuanzhi didn't smile or have other expressions, his dark eyes looked at her quietly.Xu Zhaoran looked at him carefully for a moment, carefully pulled out an index finger from behind, waved it in front of Zhao Tuanzhi, tapped it lightly on the center of his brow, and smiled.The Emei faction didn't have finger and claw skills, and Zhao Tuanzhi didn't avoid it, wanting to see what she was going to do.Then he felt Xu Zhaoran's soft fingertips sticking to the center of his eyebrows.
She did nothing.It seems to have done something.
"I've been meaning to say this for a long time, you're so pretty as a girl." Xu Zhaoran withdrew his fingers contentedly, and straightened up with a smile.
If someone else who knew his gender said that, Zhao Tuanzhi might be angry, but maybe Xu Zhaoran's tone was a little too sincere, and he couldn't be angry.Zhao Tuanzhi turned his gaze to the shore in the distance, perhaps because his eyesight was too good, he actually saw Gu Shengjin.Gu Shengjin seemed to be looking this way, but he should have turned his head away when he saw him turn his head.Since the night before yesterday, Gu Shengjin has been in a state of evasion.He went back with him last night, and went back to his room without stopping, without saying a word to him.
Also disappeared early this morning.
Zhao Tuanzhi was not without loss in his heart.
Xu Zhaoran also followed his gaze, probably recognized Gu Shengjin, smiled again, and asked Zhao Tuanzhi, "Do you know what the biggest role of having a younger sister is?"
Zhao Tuanzhi glanced at her without asking.Xu Zhaoran shook his head, and looked at Zhao Tuanzhi jokingly: "You can also serve as an emotional consultant for free. If you have something on your mind, no one will tell you, I will be happy to solve your worries."
Zhao Tuanzhi: "..."
He stopped looking at Gu Shengjin on the shore, turned around again, and poured himself a cup of tea slowly.Of course, he would not really ask Xu Zhaoran about his relationship.
Xu Zhaoran was not in a hurry, picked up the empty teacup in front of him and handed it to Zhao Tuanzhi: "Brother, have another cup."
Zhao Tuanzhi glanced at her, and he made tea for her.After brewing, he said: "Don't shout in front of others. Including Gu Shengjin."
"Okay!" Xu Zhaoran happily agreed, and then cheerfully drank the cup of tea that had become warm.
In fact, the water pavilion is a bit far from the shore, and it is impossible for ordinary people to see the clear water pavilion from the shore, but for martial arts practitioners, this distance is not very difficult.Gu Shengjin saw that Zhao Tuanzhi and Xu Zhaoran had a happy conversation?Can we even talk about intimacy?When did this happen? Didn't they have no intersection at all two days ago?The sword appreciating meeting sat together and never spoke to each other, and Zhao Tuanzhi's mother didn't see him and Xu Zhaoran having friendship on the day he came.And didn't he say that Xu Zhaoran is Zhaoqu, and he disagrees with Zhaoqu's position?Gu Shengjin couldn't figure it out, he lowered his head and thought for a while, then shook his head, thinking that there is nothing wrong with this, maybe in the future Zhao Tuanzhi found out that he was different from what he thought after getting in touch with Xu Zhaoran himself, so he didn't intend to Find her to settle accounts, but plan to be friends with her?Maybe he will fall in love with Xu Zhaoran in the future, and come to a "marriage story created by a real person and a fan story"?
Thinking of this, he was a little dazed for some reason.
"Brother Gu, are you looking deep?" Huan Hao came out from the side, touched Gu Shengjin's arm, and asked inarticulately.While asking, he was seriously eating his mutton barbecue skewers.
Gu Shengjin came back to his senses and smiled at Huan Hao: "It's nothing."
Huan Hao had already looked over, and said, "Isn't that Sheng... Zhuangzhu Zhao? Brother Gu, why do you like her so much? I think she is so scary."
"What...?!" Gu Shengjin was taken aback by him, "Don't talk nonsense, since when did I like Zhao Tuanzhi?" After talking about it, he was still afraid that others would hear it, so he grabbed Huan Hao He lowered his voice.
Huan Hao looked at Gu Shengjin strangely, and after biting off the last bite of mutton skewers, he licked his thumb that was stained with oil star and cumin, and said, "No way, Brother Gu, don't you like it? I think you like it very much." oh."
"How did you know that I like it?" Gu Shengjin couldn't laugh or cry, and there was still a feeling that there was no reason for it, and there was no place to redress the grievance.
Huan Hao found a place to throw the skewers, and replied as a matter of course: "You can see it everywhere."
Gu Shengjin: "..." He decided to change the subject, coughed and asked, "By the way, why are you so afraid of him?"
"The owner kills people without blinking an eye. He almost buried me..." Huan Hao shrugged his shoulders, looked in the direction of the water pavilion, and suddenly stopped talking about it, and said instead, "Brother Gu, I still want to eat ten Skewers."
Gu Shengjin wanted to find out what was going on, but seeing that Huan Hao's mind was all on eating, he had no choice but to hold back temporarily, took out his purse, looked at Huan Hao, and was no longer interested in taking him around to eat, so he put The money bag was handed to him, "Buy it yourself." Huan Hao pouted, took the money bag and bought it on the street when he came.Gu Shengjin walked back and forth on the bank for a few steps, but before he could figure out what was going on, he suddenly felt a figure flicker in front of him, and he subconsciously raised his hand to make a defensive gesture, and when he looked up, it turned out to be Zhao Tuanzhi.
There was a faint smile in Zhao Tuanzhi's eyes: "You came to see me?"
"I went out shopping with Huan Hao, and I just came here." Gu Shengjin rubbed his nose guiltily, took half a step back without any trace, and distanced himself from Zhao Tuanzhi.Zhao Tuanzhi looked around and asked, "Where's Huanhao?"
"Go shopping."
"Oh."
Obviously there was no ups and downs in the tone, but Gu Shengjin heard the meaning of "I don't believe it".He was eager to prove to Zhao Tuanzhi that he had really brought Huan Hao to this place for shopping. He waited and looked around, but he still couldn't see Huan Hao, so he said to Zhao Tuanzhi, "I'll go. Find him."
Zhao Tuanzhi grabbed his arm, "Don't worry about him, why don't you talk about our business first?"
"...What's the matter with us?"
"Why are you avoiding me?"
"Yes, yes?" Gu Shengjin looked around with a stiff face, wanting to leave
