Sick Beauty [Rebirth]

As Shen Shu opened his mouth, the scarlet red in his eyes faded instantly, turning back to the usual jade-like black.

Through the connection between her own spiritual consciousness and the Remnant Light Sword, Ye Yunlan confirmed that the person in front of her was not an illusion, but his own apprentice who he had found after entering the secret realm.

Their complexion was constantly changing between pale and thin red, and after a while, they finally said in a cold voice: "My teacher thought that you have made a mistake in making you retreat and reflect on the past few years... Shen Shu, are you serious? Remember that I am your master?"

While talking, he pulled the wound on his lip that was bitten by Shen Shu, and frowned in pain.

Wipe it on with your finger? A trace of bright red blood remains on the fingertip.

Seeing the blood on her fingertips, Ye Yunlan's expression became more and more cold.

He restrained himself in the illusion, unwilling to indulge, after all, nothing absurd happened to the person in the illusion, but Shen Shu had a big heart, and when he caught someone, he would act like this... such a Menglang behavior, and his eyes Eyes crimson, clearly almost possessed.

If they are really illusions, does Shen Shu know that he will be caught in the urn, sink deeper and deeper in the illusion, and then it will be difficult to break free?

It's really... really disappointing.

He seemed to want to speak up to reprimand him, but he was really lacking in language, and finally just cursed in a low voice, "I didn't know that the apprentice I accepted turned out to be a dog."

Shen Shu was slapped by him, and scolded again, his face was stunned at first, but he didn't show any effort, instead, he changed into an appearance of admitting his mistake honestly.

"I lost control just now. I encountered too many illusions. I mistook Master for a while. Don't be angry."

He apologized, but his eyes were fixed on Ye Yunlan without blinking.

Blood was smeared on the pale and thin lips of the person in front of him. It was almost the same color as the wedding clothes on his body. Against his black hair and white skin, he had a kind of richness like white paper dyed with ink.

His Adam's apple rolled slightly, and a hint of interest was in the bottom of his eyes.

Ye Yunlan didn't notice the change in him, just snorted coldly, wiped off the blood on her fingertips and lips with the hem of her hi-fu sleeves, walked back holding the sword.

The Nether Secret Realm is dangerous, this is not the time to get angry with Shen Shu, besides, it is meaningless to argue with Shen Shu after everything is over.

"Where is Master going? Where?"

Shen Shu followed quickly, as if what happened just now had never happened, and asked eagerly.

"Go? Find the key to breaking the illusion." Ye Yunlan paused, then asked coldly, "You came from the gray mist, did you find anything?"

It is true that many monsters that should not belong to this place have been found... and they have "eaten" a lot...

In other words, they are actually one of these monsters.

Shen Shu thought about it, and replied: "There is no big discovery. I realized that I was in an illusion in a wooden house. After walking all the way, I didn't see other people, but , I encountered quite a few monsters attacking me in the gray mist. They? Seem to be wraiths, and they seem to be other? However, none of them? My remnant light sword has been wiped out."

Ye Yunlan stopped in her tracks, "... Wraith?"

"Hmm..." Shen Shu replied casually, "Maybe it's not just resentful spirits. They also have a more evil aura on them, dirty, filthy, unclean... disgusting."

As he spoke, he stopped behind Ye Yunlan, leaned over, lowered his head close to Ye Yunlan's shoulder, sniffed his nose, and said with a smile: "The reason why I misunderstood Master as an illusion just now is also because of the presence of Master. ? On, I can feel that breath."

He? Put his hand on Ye Yunlan's shoulder, "It's right here."

It was him that Shen Shu was holding. The place where he was injured in the illusion before was already aching, but when Shen Shu touched it, it hurt even more.

Ye Yunlan frowned slightly, and just said: "What do you want to do..." Then, they saw a burst of black air emerging from their shoulders.

A monster with a distorted shape that could not be seen clearly appeared in front of my eyes. It looked like a black living creature struggling and screaming, with deformed limbs, and then saw a sharp sword light passing by, and the monster let out an extremely sharp and piercing scream. Then it was crushed in the air.

At the same time, Ye Yunlan felt that her body was much more relaxed, and the injury on her shoulder no longer hurt.

Shen Shu said: "I have encountered this kind of monster before. It is good at hiding around people, and turning into the person you want in your heart to confuse people. But it is better than other monsters in the gray fog that will actively attack people. Well, this kind of thing is relatively easy to deal with."

They noticed that Ye Yunlan looked at the place where the monster dissipated and remained silent, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked without hiding his doubts.

"I'm a little curious, who is the person that this monster conjures up in Master's mind?"

Ye Yunlan didn't answer.

The two were silent for a while, and Ye Yunlan suddenly said: "You said? You feel the breath of this kind of thing, evil, dirty, filthy, unclean, don't you?"

Shen Shu looked at their profiles, smiled slowly, and said.

"Yes."

"They? look disgusting too, don't they?"

The monsters in the Demon Abyss are all so disgusting.

Shen Shu thought.

If he himself showed his aura, he might be a million times more disgusting than these monsters. I'm afraid this person should stay away immediately after seeing him.

Ye Yunlan didn't know what he was thinking, so he just gave an absent-minded "hmm" and continued walking.

His ankle was accidentally twisted when he was escaping, and he staggered a little when he walked, but he didn't stop to deal with the injury in the illusion. Shen Shu noticed the situation, walked to his side and said, " Let me help you, Master."

Ye Yunlan shook his head and said: "No need. Pay attention to your surroundings. I am different from you. I am awake when I entered the illusion, so I know that I have not gone far. If this is an illusion formation, the entrance? The exit? It should be the same place, not far from here."

Shen Shu was a little curious, "How did Master enter this illusion before?"

Ye Yunlan said: "A small road. The road leading to these houses."

While talking, they stopped in front of several houses with black tiles and white walls.

The pale moonlight was shining quietly? Ye Yunlan closed her eyes and thought for a while, then pinched her fingers and calculated the direction of the gossip. Go ten steps forward, and retreat immediately if you encounter danger. Tell me what you see.”

Shen Shu did as he said, and came back from the gray fog after a while, right? He shook his head and said, "There is still fog ahead, with no end."

Ye Yunlan frowned slightly.Their memory is unmistakable, this location is where they walked along the path in the sea of ​​flowers on the other shore.

That is a matter of spiritual perception, or perception.

They wandered around the house for a while, but they didn't find a way out of the illusion, Ye Yunlan felt a little puzzled.

Logically speaking, even if some vision and perception are blinded, causing them to misjudge the direction, the exit of the illusion shouldn't be too far away.

Shen Shu suddenly said, "Maybe it's in the room."

Hearing this, Ye Yunlan felt a little stunned for a moment, indeed, they had searched all around, but they didn't find the exit, and now the only place left was the house.

What you see and hear in the illusion cannot be seen with common sense, and all the distortions and true or false may not be what people think. Ye Yunlan thinks of the mirror and paper figurines he saw before, and vaguely has some idea.

The first thing they went to check was the room that Ye Yunlan entered at the beginning. The window was still open, and it was dark inside without any candles. "No one, but the door is open, so I can't see what's going on inside."

"Want to go in? Master?"

Ye Yunlan also walked to the window, the churning darkness inside had disappeared, including the person who only existed in his memory.

The makeup mirror stand was empty, and the copper mirror reflected them outside the window sill and the pale moonlight hanging high behind them.

On the other side, the door was wide open, and the inside was dark and deep. With Shen Shu's eyesight, he couldn't see clearly, and he himself felt even more vague and indescribable.

Ye Yunlan was silent for a while, and said, "Go in? Let's go."

This time, they wanted Shen Shu to turn over to the window sill first, but when the sprained ankle landed, they were not stable. His face twisted slightly in pain, while Shen Shu grabbed the window sill with one hand He flew in and reached out to support them.

Ye Yunlan stabilized her figure and was about to speak, but Shen Shu had already half-forced them to sit on the makeup stool in front of the makeup mirror, took off their shoes for them, and stretched out her hand to cover their slender body Pale ankle, injecting spiritual power into it to heal his wounds.

A faint wind blew from the open door in the darkness. Ye Yunlan, who was facing the mirror with her back, still had the horror of staring at the paper figurine in the mirror. Shen Shu's hands were wide and hot, holding the One of their front feet wrapped around their ankle, which was already swollen and bruised.

Spiritual power surged and poured in, and they felt warm.

Ye Yunlan slowly grasped the edge of the makeup stool with his fingers, and he said in a hoarse voice: "This place is very unsafe..."

Shen Shu kept moving his hands, and smiled casually.

"It's okay. Whoever wants to hurt you, just step on my dead body first."

This sentence……

Ye Yunlan's pupils shrank slightly.

This sentence was also said to them by Demon Venerable back then.

Ye Yunlan turned her head and stared straight at the darkness outside the door, as if monsters and ghosts would emerge from the darkness at any time, and as if she wanted to see a flower from the darkness.

"All right."

Shen Shu said, put on shoes and socks for them, stood up and stood up, but his eyes still fell on the pair of red embroidered shoes on the other party's feet for a moment.I thought to myself, Ye Yunlan's feet are real. They are more delicate than women, and they really match this pair of embroidered shoes.

They have always had no interest in the skin of human beings, but they never thought that one day they would love the feet of human beings so much.

He poked at the snow-white Nascent Soul in the heart mansion, and with a thought, he changed his clothes into Ye Yunlan's.

Ye Yunlan stood up? The ankle pain had subsided? He pursed his lips and walked towards the door without saying anything.

As if thinking of something again, he stopped, turned around, and drew the Queying sword out of its sheath.

Shen Shu didn't move.

The long sword glowing with a cold light brushed across his body. Even if the sword user had no spiritual power, the cold and murderous aura still made people fall into purgatory.

Shen Shu didn't know how Ye Yunlan gathered such a deadly sword intent, and the interest in his eyes grew stronger.

He stood still, as if he didn't think Ye Yunlan would hurt them at all.

Then there was a crackling sound, and beside Shen Shu, the bronze mirror on the makeup mirror stand was divided into two halves by the sword light, fell to the ground, and shattered into countless lenses.

The surrounding environment was still gloomy, Ye Yunlan's wedding dress turned into confetti, and then changed back to the appearance of wearing white clothes at the beginning.

Ye Yunlan looked sideways, looked at the pale moonlight outside the window, thought for a moment, then turned around and walked into the darkness outside the room.

Shen Shu followed them into it.

The cold wind blew past him, and the laments and prayers of the dead seemed to be faintly heard in his ears.

When Shen Shu walked up to Ye Yunlan, he suddenly spoke.

"Master, was that sword just now a warning to me?"
