black mist

After Wen Yan left Chunxia Town, Jian Tong couldn't contact him anymore.

When trapped in the mirror lake world, Jiantong always felt that Chunxia Town was so big that it was difficult for two people to meet each other.

But in reality, Chunxia Town only covers an area of ​​over 100 square kilometers, making it a very, very small town on this vast land.

Small towns like Chunxia are innumerable on this continent of vast land and people. Apart from small towns, there are also various villages and cities, and together they pile up this bustling world.

Wen Yan deliberately closed all communication channels, leaving Chunxia Town like water drops into the sea, and it is difficult to find traces.

As for Jian Tong, although he is the master of Jinghu Lake, from another perspective, why is he not the earth-bound spirit of Jinghu Lake?

Turning off the mobile phone can easily cut off the connection between them.

Jian Tong clutched the cell phone that hadn't been dialed all the time, and sat on the playground of Chunxia No. [-] Middle School with a dark and pretty face.In his mind, Tongtong was arguing with him loudly.

Tong Tong complained to Jian Tong: "If you hadn't insisted on letting brother go, none of this would have happened. We are still staying at Jinghu's house, waiting for breakfast!"

Jian Tong, who was in the dominant position, unhurriedly threw the pot back: "I think you should review it. If you hadn't turned black and ran away, how could I scare brother away?"

Tongtong was so angry that if one consciousness had one body like before, it is estimated that the two of them are already fighting in full swing.

In the end, Jian Tong gave in first, he sighed, and said quietly: "What's the point of pursuing responsibility now, it's not all stupid things I did by myself."

Tongtong paused, and sneered: "Now you know it's you, can't you accept that I am you?"

Jian Tong didn't say a word.

Tongtong said again: "Why can't you face your heart directly? You are the one who wants to be with him, and you are the one who doesn't believe that you can really be with him. But you never believe that you will succeed. The most ridiculous thing is that you naively think that you can get rid of your inferiority complex by stripping me, but have you ever thought that as long as you love him for a day, and you can't ask for a day, you will be forever I can't get rid of the inferiority complex that comes out of my bones, even if I lose the first time, there will be a second, third time..."

"How long are you going to lie to yourself before you're satisfied?"

Jian Tong was speechless.

Since their separation, they seem to have been at loggerheads.

This kind of dispute even started from the moment Aunt Jane stepped into Chunxia Town.

Although most of the time the person who has the upper hand is the eloquent Jian Tong, but he also admits that he seems to have gone astray on this road.

It was getting farther and farther away from the result he wanted.

Jiantong knew very well that what Tongtong said was not unreasonable, but he hadn't found a way to reconcile with himself.

There is no basis for reconciliation.

Just when Jian Tong was at war between heaven and man, Wen Yan, whom he had been looking for so hard, had already arrived at a place that he never expected - the junction of the world of the dead and the world of the dead.

The realm of the dead, as the name suggests, is the world belonging to the dead, where the dead recuperate, and then enter the next reincarnation.In the rumors of the present world, there is a land full of corpses and a dense forest full of evil spirits, but in fact, the world of the dead is a clean and almost primitive place, with Gesang flowers all over the mountains and plains, quiet and desolate.

The gods in charge of the dead world built a towering temple in the deepest part of the dead world. It takes a thousand and one steps to reach the entrance of the temple.

…………

After Jian Tong was silent, Tong Tong couldn't continue talking on her own, but there was no topic to interrupt, and Shuang Tong couldn't help but think of Wen Yan, whose whereabouts are unknown now, and she felt very upset.

Tongtong paused for a moment, and then started another topic: "You said, is my brother really the wandering warlock who sealed us back then?"

Jian Tong shook her head: "I don't know either."

Tongtong counted with her fingers for a while: "But how old was he then?"

Jian Tong said patiently: "My brother doesn't look like an ordinary person, does he? Can ordinary people seal us? It's not appropriate to apply the age of ordinary people!"

Tongtong said again: "That's right, who is that brother? He can't be an ordinary wandering warlock! I don't believe it..."

Jian Tong suddenly asked: "If he is really the wandering warlock we have always hated, would you dislike him?"

Tongtong sneered: "What nonsense are you talking about, he is Wen Yan!"

——He is Wen Yan, my sweetheart.

Jian Tong also smiled: "That's right, then it doesn't seem to matter who he is, as long as he is Wen Yan."

Wen Yan, who is the center of the topic, did not stay at the junction of the dead world and the present world. He stepped into the dead world with ease, and then his figure flashed, and he passed through the vast continent of the dead world in an instant, and appeared on the side of the temple. In front of the steps, one thousand and one steps seem to have no end in sight.

Wen Yan could have reached the temple in an instant, but he chose to climb up the steps step by step.

The seal wrapped with a red rope on the back mountain not only seals Jinghu's will, but also a memory belonging to Wen Yan.As the seal was broken away by the power of Jinghu's rampage, this memory also returned to Wen Yan.

He is indeed Wen Yan, not just Wen Yan, he is also the only god of death in the world of the dead, in charge of all death and separation in this world.

After getting back his memory, the sealed divine power also recovered. He quickly dealt with everything in Jinghu, and then he even escaped from Chunxia Town in a state of embarrassment. Let Jian Tong calm down for a while.

Forced to calm down, Jian Tong sat cross-legged on the high platform of the playground, propping her chin with one hand, watching the scattered people on the track in the early morning, running around the track tirelessly round and round.

Tongtong asked him: "What are you thinking?"

"I was thinking about my brother," Jian Tong honestly expressed his confusion, "Look, since my brother was the one who sealed us back then, didn't he know everything from the beginning? Don't you think it's funny?"

"I don't think he knew everything from the beginning." Tongtong said.

"Why?" Jian Tong asked.

"Didn't you be taken aback by us before you saw him?" Tongtong said.

"We didn't lie to him!" Jian Tong reiterated.

"Okay, in short, he was taken aback for a while, and was very angry because of this. If he knew from the beginning, he would have no position to be angry with us!" Tongtong analyzed seriously road.

"There's no one in a daze!" Jian Tong reiterated again.

"Okay, okay," Tongtong compromised, "but there's nothing wrong with it, we lied to him, he lied to us, it's not that everyone doesn't come in as a family, it's not bad."

"Indeed," Jian Tong was convinced, "If he knew, he wouldn't run away, and would stay in Chunxia Town and live a good life with us."

"Although it seems that something has been skipped in the middle, there is no problem with this conclusion at all!" Tongtong said affirmatively.

Jian Tong suddenly felt a little flattered: "So my brother, like me, didn't have any memories of the past at the beginning!"

Tongtong, who had never lost his memory, was at a loss for words, and couldn't help stabbing the knife: "I have no memory, so I ran away now. It's better to remember everything from the beginning, and everyone cheated each other to find out what's available."

Jian Tong: "...shut up!"

Wen Yan really had no memory at the beginning, and it was not until his memory recovered that many of the subtle unreasonable things that happened to him were explained.

——Why, as an ordinary person with normal experience, he has entered the world of Jinghu for so long and faced so many unreasonable things, but he has never been afraid?No matter what kind of situation he faces, he can calmly analyze and find a solution.It turned out that this was not because he was an extremely calm human being, but because he was not human at all.

——Why does he always accept everything in the Mirror Lake world so quickly?Thinking about it now, it might be because even though he lost his memory of being the god of death, he is still the god who is familiar with the darkness and belongs to the night in essence.

It is also because of this that he ignores many things that normal people would not ignore. For example, when the two were in distress in the warehouse, Jian Tong clearly showed his extraordinary control over the world of Jinghu and his abnormal The power system, but Wen Yan didn't delve into it.

He asked after the fact, but at that time Jian Tong passed out just right, and the intention of escaping was beyond words, but he really let Jian Tong get away with it.After that, Jian Tong said he didn't remember, and Wen Yan stopped asking. Is this something normal people can do?Obviously not!

But now it seems logical. The reason why Wen Yan didn't ask is because Wen Yan subconsciously knew that all of this was reasonable——Jian Tong, the owner of Jinghu, could naturally be able to do it when he didn't meet Tong Tong. Invoke the power of Mirror Lake.

——When he went to the snack bar in front of the school with Jian Tong, he suddenly recalled that he seemed to be alone all the time when he was a student.It's strange to say that he is a top student, a top student, and a person with many friends, as long as he appears, there will always be countless eyes chasing him.

He obviously has so many friends, but no one seems to be able to stop him after school, arrange his schedule, and have a meal with him outside of home.

Thinking about it now, he has always been out of tune with this place, perhaps because he does not agree with his human identity from the bottom of his heart.

…………

The gods will never get tired, no matter how long the thousand and one steps are, they will reach the end. When Wen Yan stepped into the temple, a black figure rushed up to meet him.

That is Ye Youshen, one of Wen Yan's few good friends, a god who belongs to the night like him.

Ye Youshen smiled and gave him a big hug: "You are finally back! By the way, how is your heir?"

Wen Yan was taken aback for a moment, that's right, the reason why he paid attention to Chunxia Town, and even garrisoned Chunxia Town himself, was because there was his favorite heir in Chunxia Town.

This heir is Jian Tong.

Before a long time ago, Jiantong swallowed the negative energy deposited in the mirror lake, and after a long time, finally formed self-awareness.

As a god of death, Wen Yan was naturally keenly aware of the birth of this innate consciousness. For a dark god like him, Jian Tong was born and nourished by extremely evil energy. Soul and power are both The purest one is perfect as an heir.

The gods will not have their own children, so they will carefully select a suitable child, take it into their knees and teach it carefully, so that it will eventually become their heir.

The Night God has his own heirs, as do the other dark gods in the temple.

And Jian Tong is the one Wen Yan chose.

It's just that Jian Tong was too weak at that time, so Wen Yan didn't bring him back to the Dead Realm immediately, but let him stay in his original place - Jinghu, and continue to grow for a while.

During this period, Wen Yan, as a caregiver, would secretly visit him from time to time.On the one hand, it was because he did not want to intervene in his growth prematurely, and on the other hand, he wanted to observe his character again.

This kind of "voyeurism" lasted for a long, long time, from when Jian Tong just gave birth to his will until he turned into a human form.

The end of "peeping" stems from the fact that when Wen Yan went to Chunxia Town to "visit" his future heir Jian Tong as usual, he happened to see him fighting with Shanjing.

That child who howled fiercely like a small beast and seemed to never be defeated, after beating off the goblins and wild monsters, he huddled in a corner and cried secretly.

Maybe it's because I saw Jian Tong's arrogant and reckless appearance when fighting, watching him curl up in a corner and cry, his body curled up into a small ball... Wen Yan felt a little pitiful for the first time.

But he is in charge of death and parting in the world, so he shouldn't have compassion for all things.

That trace of pity flashed across my heart without leaving any trace, but Wen Yan had a bad feeling—he was moved by God.

The heartbeat at this moment did not contain the slightest bit of sympathy, but the momentary pity planted a cause between Wen Yan and Jian Tong, who had not yet become his heir.

In order to resolve this cause and effect, and to better care for and train his heirs, Wen Yan stayed in Chunxia Town as a human Wen Yan, and stayed by Jian Tong's side.

Originally, he could keep guarding Jian Tong like this until Jian Tong grew up to be his satisfactory heir.

Wen Yan is not a benevolent god, and he doesn't care too much about Jian Tong occasionally pulling a few people into Jinghu Lake to supplement nutrition.Everything in the world is an ant in his eyes, so at that moment, the pity he felt for Jian Tong, who was crying, would shake his mind.

Until later, Jian Tong accidentally released Zhang Hezhong, who publicized his experience in the Jinghu World in the town, causing an uproar in Chunxia Town. In order to calm all this, Wen Yan had to take action to clean up the mess for Jian Tong, He turned into a wandering warlock and sealed Jinghu—seemingly restricting Jiantong, but actually protecting him.

The way of heaven allows all things to fight, and allows the survival of the fittest, but it will not allow evil spirits to create panic in the human world and shake the foundation of the human world.

Therefore, throughout the ages, all monsters whose names are known to humans have been slaughtered.

After sealing Jinghu Lake, Wen Yan had to stay more low-key in Chunxia Town, but at that time, as a god, he was out of tune with the humans around him, so he simply erased his memory so that he could truly Wen Yan, who has truly become a human being, continues to guard Jian Tong silently.

Just in case, he also left another seal on the stone tablet that sealed Jinghu. This seal that sealed his memory and power will only be released at critical times.

Jianwen Yan didn't speak for a long time, Ye Youshen asked again: "What's wrong? Is it not going well?"

"Well," Wen Yan paused, not knowing where to start, so he had to say, "...failed."

"What's going on?" Ye Youshen was very surprised. How could the heir who the God of Death himself went down to guard in person fail to cultivate?

Wen Yan glanced at him: "...because he fell in love with me."

"You mean that the heir you carefully cultivated fell in love with you?" Ye Youshen was stunned for a moment, then revealed a gloating expression, and asked, "What about you? What do you think? Do you like him?"

What did Wen Yan think?

In the beginning, he just had nothing to do with the clingy child, and had no way to reject Jian Tong, who came to him as a stepbrother and was too clingy.

Jian Tong is well-behaved, with a pair of big dark eyes that are always staring at Wen Yan without blinking, which makes Wen Yan a little bit unbearable every time he rejects him.What's more, Jian Tong is extremely good at the two stunts of stalking and stalking, and Wen Yan has never been good at dealing with such types.

It can be seen that Yan Yan's life is too long, and the people and things he has experienced are like dense stars, countless, if it is said that he really can't deal with the stalking and stalking, it is not necessarily the case, could it be that before Jian Tong he was completely Have you ever met this type of person?

No, he has met, but he has never paid attention to people at all.In the final analysis, he just couldn't deal with Jian Tong, whom he had been guarding all the time.

Later, he found that he was needed by Jian Tong. This feeling of being needed was a unique feeling that he had never experienced in his long life.

—Nobody needs Death, does they?

So, he began to respond to Jian Tong's feelings uncontrollably, felt sorry for what happened to Jian Tong, and subtly accepted a future with Jian Tong.

Before that, the obstacle between them was the brotherhood of the two, but now this relationship obviously no longer exists.

Wen Yan asked herself: Do I like Jian Tong?

The answer is yes.

Of course he likes Jian Tong, otherwise why would he tolerate Jian Tong jumping on his bed and crawling up his back with his dirty bare feet when he has a slight obsession with cleanliness? When he meets Jian Tong, his cleanliness always chooses sexual dysfunction.

If he doesn't like it, why does he always naively scare Jian Tong time and time again? He likes Jian Tong to be scared after being frightened, but he doesn't have anyone to rely on except himself.

He likes Jian Tong to rely on him.

At the beginning, when Wen Yan was dragged into the world of Jinghu, the reason why the seal he left did not respond was because he subconsciously wanted to know what step Jian Tong could do.He wanted to train his successor, so he should have stood on the sidelines and let Jian Tong play on his own.

But Jiantong is timid, he can be scared to death by himself, and he won't think when he is by his side.

And he looked at Jian Tong's frightened look, and the test he decided before was thrown behind him in an instant. His heart softened, and he couldn't help but want to protect Jian Tong. In the end, he was the one who had been leading the actions of the two of them. This is far from his original intention.

Isn't that enough to explain the problem?

"I..." Wen Yan looked up at the majestic gate of the temple, and said softly, "I like him too."

Ye Youshen was even more surprised: "Then why did you come back alone?"

Wen Yan didn't speak.

Ye Youshen asked again: "Did you two quarrel?"

Wen Yan was silent.

"Hey." Yeyou smiled and said to him, "Listen to me, the object is different from the heir. Although the heir is hard to find, but you will always find it patiently. There is only one object. Now that you have identified it, you can find it." You have to grasp it carefully, and if you miss it, even if you are a god, there is no way to restore it."

"The only insurmountable thing between two people who love each other is death, and you are the only god of death in this world. Death is not a problem that hinders you, but your heart is, so you must recognize your heart..."

After sending Ye Youshen away, Wen Yan stood in front of the temple and pondered for a long time before finally choosing to return to Chunxia Town.

He has seen his own mind clearly, and now, he wants to fulfill his promise to Jian Tong - "When we leave Jinghu, if there is still a chance, if you still want, I will pick you up."
