"Ling'er...go home..." Alanna repeated stubbornly.

Baili Jueming shook his head, "I still have something to do, so I can't go back. I'm going to listen to the voice of heaven, to find a way to change my life, and to treat Pei Zhen's illness. And..." He clenched his fists and said, "I I still have to find a way to save you, don't stop me."

Alanna shook her head desperately, "Xie Xunwei, Pei Zhen...are liars!"

Baili Jueming was taken aback, "What? What liar?"

He was shocked, did Pei Zhen seduce Xun Wei behind his back?

Alana couldn't explain, so he simply took Baili Jueming's hand and placed it on his forehead.

"Enter my heart."

Grandma must have seen something to be so decisive.Baili Jueming is a little scared, if he sees Pei Zhen and Xun Wei giving and receiving each other in secret, he will go crazy!Calm down, he forced himself to be rational, Pei Zhen had no reason to do that.what would that be?He remembered that his mother targeted Pei Zhen every time, and even killed him.If you don't want to, you will know when you see it.He broke his heart, and the black energy gushed out from the seven orifices, and escaped into Alanna's heart.

In the heart domain, the phantom of memory unfolded in front of Baili Jueming.The surrounding area was gray, as if filled with a lot of black mist, and the vision was gloomy and gloomy.The vision of ghosts is different from that of living ghosts, so they often get lost.People light the lamp on the head of the dead at seven, just to show the soul the way home, lest he lose his way.He recognized Mu Furong and Yanzilou as Pei Zhen's other business in Xunzhou.It seems that Grandma sneaked into Xunzhou in the form of a ghost and saw something.

From the perspective of the ghost, the originally pink and white hibiscus presents a withered gray-black color, and the flowers and plants in the garden are all pitch-black.Alana showed him the lights of the Swallow Tower, which was the only bright spot in the dark world.Alana led him into the Swallow Tower, inside the heavy curtains, Xun Wei sat in front of the dressing table to freshen up.The copper crane candlestick held wax, and the light flowed on the mud-gold wing feathers.

Baili Jueming looked around for Pei Zhen to see if he was hiding somewhere.Alanna grabbed him and let him look at the dressing table.

The light illuminated Xun Wei's face, she wiped her cheeks with a wet towel and water soaked in bath beans.The rouge was stained with a plain white veil, and the clean water floated a layer of faint red, and the color on her face faded away little by little.Baili Jueming's hands and feet felt cold inch by inch, and he saw Xun Wei's face in the mirror, gradually turning into Pei Zhen.

After removing her makeup, Xunwei stood up, untied the ribbon on her waist, and the plain white shirt and pleated skirt slid down her body. Baili Jueming saw her white shoulders, delicate butterfly bones, and Thin but firm muscles unique to men.

He will never forget this body. Pei Zhen once stepped on his chest with a plain robe and a slender white leg.

He shook his head in disbelief, he couldn't comprehend what he saw.

Pei Zhen and Xun Wei...are they the same person?

Withdrew from the mind area, Baili Jueming sat on the ground in a daze.My brain is dull, and it hurts when I think about it.As if masochistic, enduring the pain like a needle prick, he sorted out everything he saw bit by bit.Xun Wei is not a girl doll, he is a boy from beginning to end.Why did he disguise himself as a woman? Who taught him?Baili Jueming raised him as a daughter, taking into account the security of men and women, and would never enter his room without Xunwei's consent.Eight years of getting along day and night, Baili Jueming never found out that he was a man.

Not only that, he also pretended to be Pei Zhen and Shi Wunian, and came to Baili Jueming.They kissed, slept together, teeth pressed against teeth, the breath between lips and teeth was hot, Baili Jueming hugged his hot body, except for the last step, they did everything.Baili Jueming was choking for breath, and he suddenly realized that he and his apprentice had a physical relationship.That's right, he is a fool, he painfully remembered how similar the outlines of Pei Zhen and Xun Wei were.Their lewd postures and charming eyes are clearly the same.He actually thought they were brother and sister, Xie Cenguan had no illegitimate children at all!

"Go home..." Alanna persuaded him.

Baili Jueming took a deep breath to calm himself down.Turning his face, he saw Alan's bare feet.He took off his soap boots, squatted down, and put them on for Alanna.

"Mum, you go back to the glazed pagoda. I'll go find you after I'm done."

"Go... home..." Alan grabbed his sleeve.

"I promise you, I will definitely go to you when I'm done." Baili Jueming held her hand, as if to give her confidence.

"Xie Xunwei... Bailidu... people from the Central Plains are all liars," Alanna said.

Baili Jueming gave a dull smile, then shook his head, "I have to see it with my own eyes to believe it."

Could it be that Grandma read it wrong?Will there be another secret?

He made excuses for Xunwei, even though he knew it was impossible.

"My son... don't be sad." Alan stroked the top of his hair sadly, then stood up and walked slowly.

Pei Zhen recuperated his spiritual power, and after running it for two weeks, the pain in his heart eased a little.Baili Xiaoji flapped his wings and half-flyed and half-hopped to find Yu Tingqiu and the others. After a while, he finally brought them here.Xie Cenguan couldn't believe it, it was the first time he saw a talking chicken.Seeing Pei Zhen covered in blood, Xie Cenguan almost lost his soul.Pei Zhen shook his head, indicating that he was fine.After resting for a while, the breath finally came back, and he won't be able to die for a while.

While speaking, a dim carmine-red light lit up in front of her.The water in the underground river was dyed dark red, sparkling like blood.The red light was extremely bright, even redder than what they saw outside.They realized that there might well be the source of the light.

"It's there." Baili Xiaoji said, "Go there, your master will also go to Mingguang."

Baili Xiaoji said that the end of the tunnel he built went straight to the light source, but in fact Baili Cassia was closer there than they were.

Pei Zhen thought for a moment, and decided to carve the words at the place where he was resting. If Master returns there, he will know that they went to the light source.Pei Zhen wanted to bring his burden, took off his blood-stained robe, and put on a clean one.He stood up to walk, but Mu Zhishen disagreed and picked him up.The ox hair needle is too close to the heart, he must try his best to slow down the blood flow, and he can't be tired now.

Yu Tingqiu and Chuyi lit torches, and the five of them trekked towards the light source together.Along the way, I tried to use Lianxinsuo to contact Baili Jueming several times. The closer I got to the light source, the dimmer the light on the Lianxinsuo lock. In the end, I had to give up, hoping that Baili Jueming and the others had a good understanding and went to the light source together.

It looks close, but it's actually far away.The bright light has a strong penetrating power, and the vermilion halo can be seen from far away.After trekking for half an hour, they finally climbed up a narrow cliff and walked out of the underground cave.In front of you is a cliff extending from the mountain, and on the opposite side is the same steep mountain.There is a ray of sky above the head, and the sky light leaks from above.Below is a bottomless black valley, from which the turbulent bright light escapes.

"Below is the depths of West Nanda, your destination." Baili Xiaoji said, "Follow the light, and you can listen to the voice of heaven. But there is a price for strangers to listen to the voice of heaven. Only the deaf can hear those things. You If anyone wants to go down, he must give up one ear."

As long as the ghosts cut off the flow of spiritual power, they will not be able to hear anything.Xie Cenguan said, "How about I go down?"

Pei Zhen shook his head, and sat down under a rock to rest.

"Wait for Master to come."

"Xie Xunwei," Yu Tingqiu knelt down in front of him, "Can you use silver needles to abolish your ears?"

Pei Zhen looked at her, "Cousin, do you want to go down? I can indeed use silver needles to cut off the meridians around your ear, but once you do this, you will lose your hearing forever in this ear."

Yu Tingqiu smiled, "The great way has its own myriad sounds."

Xie Cenguan disapproved, "Farewell, can Dao play eighteen touches? Going home to eat, drink and listen to ditties is better than anything else. Don't be like those idiots who practice Daoism. They are all out of their minds. already." He asked Mu Zhishen, "Aren't you going to persuade your fiancée?"

Mu Zhishen asked calmly, "Have you made up your mind, Second Lady?"

"My ambition has never changed." Yu Tingqiu said.

"Okay," he nodded, "I'll accompany you on the last journey."

He opened the bag, took out two ropes, tied them to the rocks behind Pei Zhen, and tied them firmly.

His knotted hands were held down, he raised his eyes, and saw Yu Tingqiu's eyes.They belonged to the Jiangzuo clan, and they should have met each other when they were young, but Mu Zhishen didn't remember them.I heard the rumors about Yu Tingqiu earlier, most of them said that she was spoiled, aggressive and unreasonable, and bullied the Yu family's poor little cousin Xie Xunwei every day.Later, when I saw the real person, he was indeed fierce and unforgettable.

"Senior Brother Mu, I'm sorry." She said.

He didn't respond, let alone ask why she apologized.

"I used you," Yu Tingqiu untied one of the ropes, "I want to take the path of ruthlessness, the root of love is broken, it is very difficult, so I thought of you. You are my fiance, maybe you can help me experience Love. When I fall in love with you, it is the day I kill you. Like my ancestors, killing my beloved to prove the way, the way can be accomplished. You are a good person, I shouldn’t treat you like this. Fortunately, Xie Xun’s microneedling technique is excellent, my The root of love failed to grow back. Banjali told me another way, listening to the sounds of heaven, you can hear the Dao."

Her tone was calm, such a heinous thing that deceived people's feelings and murdered people's lives, she spoke as if it was a good day or something boring.Xie Cenguan was dumbfounded when he heard this, and being deceived in such a way, wouldn't she be afraid that Mu Zhi would be furious and violently draw his knife and chop her up?

Mu Zhishen's expression did not change from the beginning to the end, and he was still so calm.

He said, "I know."

"You know?" Yu Tingqiu was stunned.

"Tiandu Mountain Grand Competition, Eighth Prison, you are going against Sect Master Xie. Sect Master Xie said, I heard that you have a fiancé. You said, very good, use his blood to prove your empress's love." Mu Zhishen iron gray His eyes were quiet, "You came to see me in Mujiabao that day, and I guessed the reason."

Surprise flashed across Yu Tingqiu's eyes, and he murmured, "Then why are you..."

Why not reject her?

"Probably because I want to take a gamble. It feels good to have someone on the road together." Mu Zhishen tied the knot again, "I'm very unlucky. I lost nine out of ten bets, and I lost this time too. So , Er Niangzi, this is the last journey I will accompany you."

After the last journey, they parted ways.

Yu Tingqiu looked at him concentrating on tying the knot, and felt sore in her heart, as if she had touched something in a daze.There was a slight tingling pain in the back of her head, that was where Xie Xun slightly broke her root of love.

Is it growing back?she thinks.

"Let's go?" Mu Zhishen asked after tying the knot.

"Let's go." Yu Tingqiu got up with his sword in his hands.

Pei Zhen disabled her left ear, and she and Mu Zhishen fell down the cliff together.The person and the rope were submerged into the bright light together, and gradually became unclear.The length of rope connected to the stone was kept taut, and after an incense stick, the rope became loose, and no human voice came from below.Xie Cenguan squatted on the edge of the cliff and kept sighing. When people are old, they like to see people in pairs.These two people don't know what's going on, anyway, he can't understand it.

The sound of climbing came from the cave, and Pei Zhen was startled, standing up while supporting the rock.The sound was getting closer and closer, and everyone's eyes were focused on the entrance of the cave.Pei Zhen kept thinking, how should he speak to Master?How should he tell Master that he is Xie Xunwei?Will Master forgive him?Yes, from childhood to adulthood, as long as he acted coquettishly and cried, the master would definitely compromise.Will it be the same this time?By the way, he was injured and sick.If Shizun was really angry, he would show Shizun the scratches on his arm, and then cough up a few mouthfuls of blood, Shizun would definitely feel distressed.He calmed down a little, and waited for the master to come up wholeheartedly.

A figure turned up, looking through the bright light, his hair was scattered, and the fine curly hair stuck to his cheeks.Those dark eyes were as bright as charcoal fire, and he possessed his unruly and arrogant look.It's him, it's Master.Pei Zhen took a step forward subconsciously, he raised his head and met Pei Zhen's eyes.

Pei Zhen opened his mouth, wanting to call "Master", but afraid of scaring him, he finally called out: "Senior."

Baili Jueming subconsciously avoided his eyes and asked, "Where are Mu Zhishen and Yu Tingqiu?"

Xie Cenguan said: "The two of them are going down. What is Yu girl going to listen to? What do you think about the young people nowadays? By the way, Mr. Baili, do you know that your chicken can talk?"

Pei Zhen kept looking at him, Baili Jueming couldn't avoid Pei Zhen's gaze, and asked, "Do you have something to say?"

Pei Zhen was startled, do you want to confess now?His fingertips were cold, his heart was beating fast, and his chest hurt from the impact.

He smiled softly, and replied, "Where did senior go? Why did it take you so long to come?"

Let him delay for a while, and let him think of a suitable excuse.

But he saw that the master's eyes turned cold inch by inch, as if he was extremely disappointed.

"I went back to the underground river, and I came here only after seeing the message you left. If I took a detour, the time will be delayed." Baili Jueming took a deep breath, "Pei Zhen, I have something to tell you. "

"Sit down and talk about something," Xie Cenguan waved at Baili Jueming, "Come, come, don't stand still."

Baili Jueming ignored him and said, "Eight years ago, a hundred families of the Immortal Sect besieged Baochen Mountain. Before the pioneers of the Yu family attacked the mountain, I cast a blood curse on my apprentice Xie Xunwei's eyebrows. Xunwei was born with pure yin and is a powerful weapon. This blood curse can protect her from being bullied and defiled by others. My blood curse is hidden deep in her meridians. No one can find the curse in her body except me. origin."

Pei Zhen seemed to have expected something, his heart was empty, and his fingertips were as cold as snow.

Baili Jueming slowly raised his hand, and stretched out his index finger between Pei Zhen's eyebrows.Pei Zhen's meridian trembled, and a bright red mark appeared from between his eyebrows.Both Xie Cenguan and Chuyi stared wide-eyed, their hearts hanging in the air.The red marks became more and more obvious, and gradually condensed into a drop of blood, separated from Pei Zhen's brow, and floated to Baili Jueming's fingertips.

The evidence is overwhelming and irrefutable.

Baili Jueming looked at the drop of blood and smiled bleakly.

"Pei Zhen, why do you have Xunwei's blood curse on you? Should I call you Pei Zhen, or Xunwei?"

Xie Xunwei's face was pale, he could hardly breathe, he spoke with difficulty: "Master..."

Xie Cenguan hurriedly stood up, and said: "Senior Baili, I am to blame for this. This child should have made it clear to you a long time ago, but I was afraid that you would be angry, so I stopped you desperately. Blame me, blame me, don't get angry with him .”

The more he talked, the angrier Baili Jueming became.The blood dripped on his fingertips, and his brows were full of shadows, "It's full of nonsense. You knew it a long time ago, did Yu Tingqiu and Mu Zhishen also know it? Yu Tingqiu used to hate Xunwei so much, but recently he suddenly stopped looking for it." It’s trivial. Shi Wunian’s other business was built in Xunzhou, and Mu Zhishen knew the truth a long time ago. Everyone in the house, whether it’s a human or a ghost servant, you all know that Pei Zhen is really Xie Xunwei. I’m the only one kept in the dark , like a fool."

Baili Jueming walked to the edge of the cliff, the mountain wind blew his cheeks cold, he said in a shy voice: "Xunwei, you have deceived me so hard. Jiangzuo Xianmen, everyone is hypocritical. Even my biological father and my uncle , They are all bastards and hypocrites who lie without batting an eye. My mother was deceived and got to such a point. I only believe in you, you are my apprentice, and I never suspected you or doubted you. But I didn't expect that it was you who lied to me the most. "

Xie Xunwei felt great grief in his heart, he lifted the hem of his clothes, knelt down on the ground, bent down, and hit his forehead heavily on the ground.

"Xun Wei bullied Master, dare not quibble. Please punish Master!"

"Punishment..." Baili Jueming looked down at his dark hair, "You and I have been with me for eight years, and I have never punished you. You answer me, is it because Master treated you badly, and you want to retaliate against me like this? ?”

"No...it's not like this...Master's great kindness, there is nothing in return for Xun Wei's hard work in this life." Xie Xunwei closed his eyes, tears dripped down on the mud floor, and there were scattered tears.

Baili Jueming was full of pain, "You and my master and apprentice are rebellious against heaven, Xun Wei, how should Master face you in the future?"

The cold sadness flooded Xie Xunwei's heart like a silent tide, and he had nothing to say.

I couldn't stand it at first glance, I wanted to tell Baili Jueming about the past at the Hanshan Dojo, but I didn't dare.This matter is the biggest scar in Xie Xunwei's heart, and it cannot be easily mentioned on weekdays.He is such an arrogant person, if it is exposed at this time, and let his master and father know how miserable he has been in the past, I am afraid that he himself will not be able to survive.Then he said: "Senior, my lord is seriously ill, even if my senior is angry, please take pity on your lord."

Xie Xunwei hoped, would Master forgive him because of his illness?The master loves him the most, and he knows that the master is the most soft-hearted.

Baili Jueming was silent for a moment, and said, "How do I know if your so-called serious illness is true or not?"

Xie Xunwei's face was as pale as paper, the candles he hoped for were extinguished, and frost and snow slowly covered his heart.The heart is cold, and the body is also cold.The tears finally couldn't stop, and drops fell from the eye sockets.He stood up and reached out to reach Baili Jueming's sleeves, "Master, I'm sorry... I'm sorry... Xun Wei made a mistake, Xun Wei knew it was wrong."

Baili Jueming turned around, looked up at the ray of sky above, and said, "I remember, I have been here before. I died at the age of six, and my soul came here, and I saw the great spirits of the heavens, and Red bright light. I saw many souls jumping into the light, probably to go to the rebirth. At that time, my mother called me to go home. Don't talk about it anymore. But I didn't listen, and ran away with my own will. Thinking about it now, if I followed everyone to the death, wouldn't I have to suffer these sufferings? Why do people have to suffer when they are alive, but also when they die? Suffering? Is there an end to the suffering in this world?"

No one answered Baili Cassia's question. There are too many questions in this world that have no answers.

They say that Tianyin responds to every request and answers every question. Can it tell him where his end is?

Baili Jueming untied the tooth-colored headband from his wrist and put it in the palm of his hand.

"Xie Xunwei, I will ask Tian Yin how to break your fate. If your illness is real, I will also ask it how to heal you. After these two things are done, our fate will be established. "

Baili Cassia ignited the palm flame, and the hair band curled up in the flames, scorched black, and turned into ashes.He was no longer angry, nor sad, and there was no sorrow or joy in his stern eyebrows.

"From now on, you and I, master and apprentice, will be bound by kindness and righteousness."

Ashes fluttered in the wind, Xie Xunwei watched helplessly as the hair tie disappeared without a trace.

He shook his head in tears, "Don't..."

Baili Jueming raised his hand, and the ashes flew away with the wind, like little butterflies fluttering about.He jumped into the unfathomable abyss.Xie Xunwei shouted in panic: "Master——"

Xie Cenguan and Chuyi hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, preventing him from jumping off.He was deeply saddened, fearing that his blood flow would speed up, the needle pierced his heart, and immediately slapped him on the back of the neck.Severe pain struck, and darkness covered Xie Xunwei's vision.

His call was also scattered in the wind along with the ashes, and no one answered.
