God, he quietly likes this seat

Yan Huaizhou shuffled slowly behind Zhong Ling, staring absently at his straight back, but Zhong Ling never stopped to talk to him.

The two walked a long distance one after the other, and he finally couldn't help but ask, "Hey, where are we going now?"

Zhong Ling said, "Go to where I live."

"what???"

Yan Huaizhou almost bit his tongue, suspecting that there might be something wrong with his ears.Zhong Ling thought he didn't hear clearly, so he stopped for a while and repeated: "Go to where I live."

The tone was flat, as if it was a matter of course.

Yan Huaizhou looked at him suspiciously, always feeling that the person in front of him was not the Zhong Ling he recognized.

"I said Shenjun, it's still broad daylight, why did you take me to where you live? Are you trying to trick me into destroying the corpse?"

Zhong Ling turned his face slightly: "Are you scared?"

Sunlight fell on his cheeks through a gap in the forest.

From Yan Huaizhou's perspective, Zhong Ling's face seemed to be softened into a fine suet jade under the dappled light, and his dark pupils were also shining brightly.

It felt as if—something was scratching gently in my heart.

He had no choice but to control himself not to look at Zhong Ling's face any more, and stiffened his neck with duplicity: "What do I have to be afraid of?"

Zhong Ling suddenly let out a muffled laugh.

Yan Huaizhou was startled by his inexplicable laughter and got goosebumps all over his body. He almost suspected that this person had either been robbed or had hysteria: "What are you laughing at?"

Zhong Ling quickly withdrew his smile again: "It's nothing. I just want to ask you to do me a favor. Let's go."

Yan Huaizhou was confused, and muttered again in a low voice: "You live far away, why don't we use the sword?"

But Zhong Ling ignored him, as if he didn't hear him at all, so he had to follow Zhong Ling around, and finally arrived at an ordinary stone platform before breaking his leg.

Zhong Ling read a password towards the stone platform, and lightly tapped in front of his eyes, a phantom of an enchantment gradually appeared under the originally empty stone platform, revealing a hole as tall as a person.

He signaled to Yan Huaizhou, "Come and see."

In fact, before he could say anything, Yan Huaizhou had already noticed something was wrong.He circled around the entrance of the cave twice, went in and inspected it carefully, and said doubtfully, "It's really weird."

Zhong Ling really looked at him approvingly: "You feel it too?"

Yan Huaizhou stood at the entrance of the cave and pointed to his feet: "When I stood here, I only felt that the aura in the cave was soaring, but after I entered, there was nothing there. It was too ordinary. Could this aura still be able to escape!"

He thought for a moment, "Do you suspect that there is something hidden here?"

Zhong Ling nodded, and said, "Not only here, but I have already found three or four places like this in the mountains, and this place is the one I feel the most strongly about. It's a pity that I spent a long time here, but I still found nothing."

The two went in together to search again, but still did not find anything wrong.

Although the entrance of the cave is not big, the inside is very spacious. There is a flat land next to the mountain wall, and some hay is randomly spread on the ground-it doesn't look like a place where people can live.

Yan Huaizhou saw that Zhong Ling pursed his lips lightly and hesitated to speak, thinking that he was anxious, so he subconsciously comforted him: "Don't be impatient, we will pay attention slowly."

After comforting him, he still felt that he was very caring, and walked towards the pile of hay in satisfaction, and sat on a stone beside the hay.

Unexpectedly, before his buttocks had time to sit still, Zhong Ling cleared his throat and said to him sternly: "I'll talk about other things later. Right now we still have to get along for a while, in order to save some trouble, we need to make an agreement in three chapters first."

……

Yan Huaizhou was shocked.

How did Zhong Ling say such words? ? ?

He said in disbelief: "Master Shenjun, please find out, okay? I am here to help you, not you. You still have a lot of demands on me?!"

Zhong Ling was not in a hurry to refute, but just looked at him calmly.

Through Zhong Ling's gentle appearance, he clearly saw the four characters "If you don't listen, get out" on that face.

Yan Huaizhou really felt that it wasn't Zhong Ling who was sick in his head—it was himself!

He stared dryly for a long time, finally lost, and spread his hands resignedly: "Say it, say it."

"First, don't take the initiative to provoke right and wrong."

Yan Huaizhou raised his face, then lowered it heavily, as a nod.

"Second, don't kill without reason."

Yan Huaizhou repeated the action just now, nodding again.

"third……"

His movements were arranged, but Zhong Ling didn't say anything.Yan Huaizhou had no choice but to ask himself: "What is the third?"

Zhong Ling tensed his face: "I haven't thought about the third one yet, I'll talk about it when I think about it."

"..."

Yan Huaizhou lamented: "How much did I owe you in my previous life?!"

He didn't want to continue this topic, so he looked around again, and finally his eyes fell on the hay on the ground: "Then we will sleep here?"

Zhong Ling hummed, then suddenly remembered something, and said with some hesitation: "I forgot for a moment that you love cleanliness. I'm afraid I won't be used to living in this kind of place."

Yan Huaizhou raised his eyebrows mockingly: "I've been rolling in the mud all these years, I'm used to it. Besides, it's not like I haven't slept with you in this kind of place before."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly sensed another meaning, and couldn't help but feel hot, and secretly raised his eyes to see Zhong Ling's expression.Unexpectedly, Zhong Ling was also looking at him. Their eyes met, and they quickly separated, turning their heads away.

The atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing point, leaving only a strange silence.

Yan Huaizhou suddenly found that after he calmed down, he couldn't find a single extra word to say to Zhong Ling.

When we were together in the past, we were always intimate and lively, and we never thought that there would be such a day.

The rarest thing in this world is to meet again after a long absence.However, if the reunion spans seven years, spanning insurmountable positions, responsibilities, and love and hatred, there will only be unavoidable embarrassment left.

What to say.

Did he want to ask Zhong Ling why you didn't chase him back then?Are you still angry about that?Or, would you... would you like to hear me explain?

After a long time, Zhong Ling was the first to break the silence.

"You knew a long time ago that the Sky Sect colluded with the Demonic Dao and lured your parents to the Xingtai - why didn't you tell me then?"

Yan Huaizhou didn't expect Zhong Ling to mention this first.

He tilted his head and smiled at Zhong Ling: "Tell you what to do. I told you, are you going to accompany me to kill all the people I want to kill, accompany me to cultivate the way of magic, or are you going to stop me and force me to agree with you?" the great truths?"

Zhong Ling's voice was very low: "There are hundreds of lives in the sky, and there are always innocent people. Can't you think about it before you do things..."

When Yan Huaizhou heard the words, his tone couldn't help being a bit cold, and he said mockingly: "I am a villain who must take revenge, so naturally I can't compare to you, a gentleman who always regards himself as the savior of the world. - Please tell me, Lord Shenjun, who is not innocent?! "

His words were unceremonious, and Zhong Ling opened his mouth, as if he wanted to argue, but in the end he just lowered his eyes.

Zhong Ling's eyelashes are very long, hanging down so limply, it looks a bit pitiful.What Yan Huaizhou was most afraid of was his appearance, he was speechless for a while, and resignedly put away his bad attitude.

But since Zhong Ling took the lead, he also has something he has to ask

Yan Huaizhou took a soft breath: "Then you were the one who saved me from the Devil-killing Dao back then?"

He asked this sentence, held his breath in his heart, and stared at Zhong Ling for a moment.

But Zhong Ling still lowered his eyes and said, "No."

Yan Huaizhou continued to ask, but Zhong Ling suddenly raised his head, and said first, "Didn't you keep saying that you broke out by yourself?"

His expression did not seem to be fake at all, Yan Huaizhou was a little disappointed, but the cloud of doubt in his heart never dissipated.

After a while, he shrugged and said irrefutably, "I want to know too."

They tacitly never mentioned what happened in the secret passage of Zhong Ling's room that night.

——He didn't dare to mention it, so what about Zhong Ling?

Yan Huaizhou always felt that Zhong Ling didn't remember this matter at all.

Otherwise, with his temperament, how could he get along with him without any grievances like now, as if nothing had happened.

Yan Huaizhou hesitated again and again: "...Have you ever been sick or injured in these years, I mean, have you broken your brain?"

"..."

Zhong Ling glanced at him coldly: "I don't remember clearly."

Yan Huaizhou shuddered: "Oh."

Zhong Ling fell silent again.

Yan Huaizhou was almost suffocated in such an at-a-glance atmosphere.He racked his brains and finally found a new topic: "Zhong Ling, are you hungry?"

Zhong Ling was stunned by his question, and then shook his head: "I've already done bigu, and I don't need to eat."

Yan Huaizhou knew that if he continued to sit like this, he would be suffocated to death by this awkward way of getting along, so he immediately jumped up from the rock and walked out: "You wait!"

Zhong Ling didn't know what he was waiting for, but he didn't ask any more, just silently watched his figure disappear at the entrance of the cave.

It took Yan Huaizhou a long time to go, until it was getting late and Zhong Ling couldn't help but go out for the third time to look around, and finally saw him come back with a lot of things.

He put all the things in his hand on the open space in front of the cave, and said to Zhong Ling with a playful smile, "Are you in a hurry?"

Zhong Ling watched with a complicated expression as Yan Huaizhou set up the branches he had brought back, and took out a few cleaned fish from the net bag beside him.

He actually still thinks about the things he liked to eat when he was a teenager.

Yan Huaizhou seemed to be in a very happy mood. He raised his index finger and middle finger to point between his eyebrows, then waved lightly and whistled, and the pile of branches started to burn.

While he was busy, he chattered to Zhong Ling: "By the way, I heard that there is a small town a hundred miles to the south, named Gaifeng. Many people have spent a long time here, and now they are all gathered in the Transit Pavilion in the city to inquire about news Shall we go look for clues there too?"

When Zhong Ling heard him talk about something serious, he put away his thoughts and nodded at him: "I also have this plan. If that's the case, why don't we leave tomorrow."

……

The setting sun slowly disappeared into the mountains and forests, and the sky was completely dark.

Zhong Ling crossed his legs and sat down side by side with Yan Huaizhou, watching him play with the grilled fish seriously.

The sound of crackling and burning pine wood was scattered in the air, and the delicious smell of grilled fish gradually dispersed into the wind.The long-lost fireworks in the world are idle, and when the chest is brushed, it makes people's whole heart warm.

Zhong Ling turned his head to the side and saw the flames reflected on Yan Huaizhou's face.There was a smile on his lips, a pair of upturned peach blossom eyes curved, he looked clean and gentle, and he didn't have the heinous appearance that the world said.

——But even so, he will never be able to return to the fairy gate, and he will not be able to walk the right path.

Zhong Ling was in a daze for a long time, until Yan Huaizhou stuffed the first grilled fish into his hand.

"Try it quickly. It's a pity that I only borrowed a little salt from someone else. The taste must not be very good."

Although he said this in his mouth, his eyes were bright, as if he was very proud.Zhong Ling hummed lightly, and slowly put the fish into his mouth.

Xu Shi hasn't eaten for a long time, the taste of grilled fish is familiar and delicious, but he can only taste the slightest bit of bitterness.

……

It was night, and the two slept together in the cave.

Yan Huaizhou was lying on a clump of hay that Zhong Ling found for him, and there was only less than a foot between them.

He quietly listened to Zhong Ling's breathing in the dark, and felt that everything today seemed to be in a dream.

But even in his dream, he didn't dare to imagine that there would be such a day again - Zhong Ling was not far from him, and he could sleep so peacefully, completely defenseless.

This simple stone cave seemed to become cute because of it, Yan Huaizhou sighed contentedly from the bottom of his heart, and finally closed his eyes with peace of mind.
