[Sword Three] Chase, Life, Gu II

Hua Zhanyi sat quietly in one of the tents.

Because of Li Jinrui's special confession, he was able to avoid being tied up and punished, and he was locked in a fairly neat separate tent for living.

Guishuai's safe return caused quite a commotion in the northwest valley, and Tyranny who rushed over after hearing the news even expressed that he would serve him wine to celebrate.It's a pity that Li Jinrui didn't have such thoughts at all, his eyes went straight when he saw the warm white fur around Tyranny's waist, and hurriedly dragged people to question him.

Hua Zhanyi also looked at the top-grade fur that was familiar at a glance, and he had an impression after a little recollection, but...how did Ye Liancheng's cloak appear here?And, sure enough, who is wearing what kind of clothes? On Ye Liancheng's body is the young master, but in Tyranny he is at most a butcher who won a lot of money by gambling.

There was a lot of noise outside the tent.There are more villains than expected. It seems that the army of the Valley of the Wicked has gathered here temporarily. In this way, there is no need to ask Li Jinrui to send him to West Kunlun. Hua Zhanyi knows that Luo Ci has always been a villain. He just ran wherever he wanted, whether it was the rear or the front line, he seemed to have never considered the danger of the commander being exposed to the enemy; moreover, in the Haoqi League, if he was not a high-level or senior person, he would basically not recognize this temperament The peaceful Taoist is the strategist they racked their brains to deal with, just like him back then.

Hua Zhanyi let out a breath slowly, raised his weak right hand, and silently looked at the scar at the root of his wrist in a daze.

Or maybe, Luo Ci's existence itself is a kind of deception...

To this day, Hua Zhanyi still can't tell which Luoci is the real him.

Even after passing through the Valley of the Wicked, even though the two have cut off their robes and declared justice, the Luo Ci in Hua Zhanyi's impression is still Luo Qianxing by the Luoxing Lake—reticent, always indifferent, often Facing the emptiness, no one knows what he is thinking, as if he has formed a world by himself, and everything around him cannot be integrated into it.Speaking of which, what attracted him at the beginning was probably this inherent special temperament, right?

Therefore, what Hua Zhanyi was most passionate about every day was to use various words and deeds to break the person's appearance.In his opinion, Daoist Luo's appearance like a little old man is a waste of the good skin of this young talent. As a citizen of the Tang Dynasty, how can he live such a boring and interesting life?When the instigation starts, maybe we can go out to visit Chang'an with him in the future, and with the appearance of the Taoist leader, bringing Tang Wuyuan will definitely become a scene in the imperial city.

Ever since Luo Ci was recovering from a serious illness and was still bedridden, Hua Zhanyi began to instill in him such positive thoughts as "happyness must come in the spring", but the Taoist priest is worthy of being a Taoist priest, even if he is full of fallacies He was unmoved by the hype, but half-closed his eyes and looked drowsy. Later, when he was able to go to the ground, his whereabouts became more erratic. Besides, Daoist Luo himself also had the principle of dodging on different maps, so he was In the first few days, Hua Zhanyi basically didn't even see the corner of this person's clothes, let alone instigation.

Faced with this situation, Hua Zhanyi was very unhappy, thinking that he is an unparalleled master, Wen can play with thousands of flowers and seven arts, martial arts can live and die with human flesh and bones, and the full-fledged celebrity, elegant scholar, big girl, and daughter-in-law are all willing to make friends with him, why? When you come to your Daoist Luo, you still have to post it upside down?

Complaining is nothing but complaints, but the aggrieved feeling of not being able to ask for something like this accidentally ignited Hua Zhanyi's fighting spirit as a man: the three apprentices of the medicine king used to observe the disease every day in the name of observing the disease, and asked Taoist Luo where he was when he caught someone. If someone recalls the scene of the scene so far, they will definitely think——this person is a stalker! ?

The first time Hua Zhanyi successfully caught Luo Ci in the wild was Huahai.

The Taoist priest dressed in pure white was holding a small deer in his arms, and was rushing on the road, his usual indifferent face was obviously worried.

Hua Zhanyi, who originally wanted to say hello, fell silent when he saw this situation, and quietly followed the past with the flowers.

At the end of the line of sight is a doe lying under a tree.

The deer let out a mournful cry, struggled to jump out of Luo Ci's embrace, limped over, spun around beside the doe, and wailed at Luo Ci all the time.

Most of the animals in Wanhua Valley are very humane. On weekdays, Xinglin disciples often rescue the animals in Huahai when collecting herbs. This little guy probably regards Luo Ci as the same kind.

It's a pity... the Taoist chief is also a layman who can't beat anything. Hua Zhanyi saw Luo Ci walk over and knelt beside the doe, as if checking for trauma, and finally bent down with a serious expression. Gently pressed the doe's swollen abdomen with his hand, and then Hua Zhanyi heard Luo Ci say in a low voice: "Little guy, your mother...is it difficult to give birth?"

"Pfft—" Hua Zhanyi couldn't hold back any longer, and laughed unceremoniously.

"Doctor Hua." Hearing the sound, the Taoist turned around in surprise, nodded to him, and said, "The doctor came just in time, this deer seems to be in a difficult labor..."

"The Daoist really likes...to meddle in other people's business, so I said why the gods have been out of touch recently, so...he came here to preach and do good deeds?" Hua Zhanyi raised his eyebrows, but stood still.

"..." Luo Ci frowned, and raised his head slightly as if he had sensed the emotion in the words.

"Does the Taoist priest know that I have been looking for you recently?"

"...The disciple in the valley once told Luo."

"Hehe... what does the Taoist priest mean by this? Could it be that someone's superficiality really stained the Taoist priest's eyes, making the Taoist priest prefer to face these beasts?" Hua Zhanyi smiled casually, with slightly squinted eyes Shimmer ripples.

No matter how dull people are now, they can hear Hua Zhanyi's anger, Luo Ci sighed, and said: "Doctors are benevolent, and they should treat everyone equally."

"But the Taoist priest should know that 'the doctor heals the disease, not the life'. Even if you save this deer now, it will die of food poisoning, disease, or be taken away by wolves in the future." Hua Zhanyi continued to reply casually If you talk about eloquence, Taoist priests who often live in the deep mountains are no match for the suave and suave Hua Dacai, so after a moment of silence, Luo Ci raised his eyes and looked at Hua Zhanyi for the first time in a few days, with a helpless tone in his tone His compromise: "The future will be long, why not save those who can be saved right now."

"The Taoist priest is more like a Xinglin disciple than I am..."

Seeing that the teasing was almost done, no matter how heartfelt the Taoist chief was, he probably wouldn't deliberately avoid it in such a shameless manner.Hua Zhanyi walked up to the doe, squatted down, dug out the bag, fumbled and took out a small bunch of dry yellow fruits, put it in the palm of his hand and handed it to the doe's mouth. The deer sniffed the poop with its wet nose. He opened his mouth obediently and swallowed it.

"Good boy." Hua Zhanyi touched the doe's head with a smile, and took out a pair of gold needles from the front of her clothes. With the palm of her hand, the needles pierced several acupuncture points on the doe's abdomen like electricity. Familiarly massage with palms and abdomen.

"..." Luo Ci stared at him for a moment, and Hua Zhanyi could clearly feel that clear gaze sticking to her body.

"I admit that I was really venting my anger just now. Please don't stare at me like this. Although I am famous in Jianghu, I will be shy."

Luo Ci coughed lightly when he heard the words, and the sound of the cloth rubbing against each other was probably because the man turned his head away, only to hear some murmured words: "Lu Ben is innocent."

"It's just making trouble for a while." Hua Zhanyi smiled noncommittally, took back the fine needles on the doe one by one and clapped his hands, looked up at the sky, and took out a lotus leaf green from the bag to wear, "Drizzle will Well, the Daoist is recovering from illness, it is better to go back to the house as soon as possible."

"That deer..." Luo Ci was just about to ask a question in doubt, when he saw the dying doe stand up from under the tree unsteadily, rubbed the sleeve of Hua Zhanyi affectionately, and then trotted a little opened.

"This is a disease of food accumulation. You only need to eat crotons and then clear the air, and it will be cured after excretion. There are countless medicinal materials and poisons in the sea of ​​​​flowers. The deer will often suffer from this disease if they eat them by mistake." While explaining, Hua Zhanyi winked at Luo Ci teasingly, "It's not a dystocia."

"... I have been taught." Luo Ci tilted his head to the side and slightly cupped his hands at Hua Zhanyi, before walking out first.

Are you blushing?Haha must be blushing!

This is the second time I saw this long blush, right?Hua Zhanyi thought proudly.

Originally, it is good to be like a person, always so wandering, and sooner or later one day it will really turn into a stone statue.

After that, Luo Ci really didn't run away early in the morning.

There are always some times every day, Xinglin disciples who come to visit their seniors will see this mysterious Taoist priest in Luoxing Lake: Xuehua's temperament is born gracefully, and opposite him sits his own casual third senior brother. Drinking tea is like playing chess, and the scene of black and white sitting opposite each other is reflected in the water as a self-contained ink painting.

However, the instigation that Hua Zhanyi had in mind was not implemented smoothly in the end.

Because he found that he began to be interested in Luo Ci himself, with a sudden impulse, he wanted to understand the inner nature of this person.

Apart from the brand-new cognition brought about by that one-sided thrilling discussion, it probably lies in his curiosity about the reason for his persistence in "Tao".In Hua Zhanyi's view, something like "Tao" is an illusory spiritual sustenance. It would be too bad to become paranoid and eccentric because of it. After deliberating for a long time, he replied: "Thousands of flowers pass by, and the powder petals all stick to the clothes, and the clothes don't get into the heart. This is the way between flowers."

Hmm, it's quite catchy. It seems that the level of doggerel has not declined, and I don't know if Luo Ci understands it.Thinking of looking up and seeing the concentrated expression of the Taoist on the other side, thinking and chanting, I can't help but feel deeply sad: I just told you not to dig into the horns and take a look at this colorful world!Why don't you learn well?

While slandering, he unceremoniously smashed the last white piece on the chessboard, and all eyes were empty, "Daoist, you lost."

"Be taught." Always with a plain look, Luo Ci bowed his head and nodded, "Doctor Hua's chess skills are exquisite, and I admire him. It is said that the way of chess pays attention to state of mind. It can be seen that Doctor Hua has a clear mind, and he is worthy of being a young talent." The praise of the reader is gentle and serious, without the slightest hint of perfunctory flattery. It sounds very useful, but... Hua Zhanyi stared at the chessboard speechlessly. Just now they played Rao Ziqi, and he had already worked hard to take care of the patients. Unexpectedly, Luo Ci could lose like this.

The game of Go seems elegant, but in fact, the game is like a battle, and a game of chess is often a bloody battle. Therefore, apart from the literati, there are also many good chess players in the military camp above the court, such as the staff of the Tiance Mansion. Mr. Zhu Jianqiu.Maybe that's why Luo Ci has no fighting spirit?That's okay, after all, there are too many people in this world who are burdened by material desires.

Slightly sighing, Hua Zhanyi shook his head in frustration as if returning to reality.

Not just chess.

These days, in order to change the exaggerated first impression, Hua Zhanyi stopped talking about eating, drinking and having fun, but worked hard to cultivate some elegant things in Luoci.Since he's not interested in pleasure, it's okay to attack from another angle. Hua Zhanyi is eager to fight, but at some point his goal has become "trying to make the Taoist priest a normal person."

It's a pity that this person is too out of touch with the world of flowers and flowers. He can't understand rhythm, is not good at calligraphy and painting, can't recite poems and Fu, and can only drink tea, which makes him sigh. As for the wine...

People of Qingxiu never drink alcohol, so even Baihuaniang will get drunk as soon as they touch it. The bright moonlight spread thinly on his pale side face, with a soft luster like warm jade, a few loose locks of dark hair hanging down from the Taoist crown, half covering the trembling eyelashes and blushing cheeks .With just one glance, Hua Zhanyi's gaze can't be fixed——

Beauty under the moon.

Humanity is short-lived, only for Wei Tuo.

This cold Taoist drunk state is probably the No. 1 one to see, right?

The breeze hangs down the wild and the night is cool, the wine is not intoxicating, everyone is drunk, the posture and beauty of the people are delicious...

...Stop it, what are you thinking about, are you fooling around with Tang Wuyuan?

Except for those small episodes, slowly, Hua Zhanyi was really attracted by this person's personality: frankness, humility, superb martial arts, a born way of life, but a compassionate sympathy for many things: a flower Every blade of grass, every bird, every beast, all of these can make his indifferent face appear illusory haze, as if he is about to sigh in the next second.

Thinking of the anxious looks of the group of Chunyang disciples who sent him here, the Taoist priest must be a very beloved person in the sect, even if he is in the most controversial Jingxu sect in Chunyang. It must be the most distinctive existence... Suddenly, Hua Zhanyi thought of Xue again, this time it was not the cold and emptiness of ice and snow, but the spring snow, the kind that melts into the wild and creates all things; he is different from those who are A hypocrite scholar who is burdened by the world, he does have certain characteristics, the characteristics of self-steadiness in the chaos of the world, so that this person will not be shaken by any external objects.

It's a kind of...a bit cruel, but most people envy and yearn for...pureness.

The same goes for Huazhanyi.

"It's fortunate that the world's Taoism is so long."

After a long time, Hua Zhanyi slowly filled a cup of tea for Luo Ci, raised his cup from a distance, and smiled like a floating flower, "Tea instead of wine, my servant... I want to make friends with the Taoist priest, but I don't know what to do? "

Hearing this, the Taoist holding the fragrant tea seemed a little stunned, then gently raised his hand to clink glasses with Hua Zhanyi.

The crisp sound of "Dingling" echoed in the curling tea mist.

"Not very honored."

It's unbelievable to say that this is the first time that the flamboyant Wushuang master sincerely took the initiative to interact with people, even Hua Zhanyi himself didn't know where his impulse came from; maybe it was because of the pure influence of that person , in the depths of the layered coat that I deliberately forgot, I also have such a pure heart...

"Then I will call Daoist Master... Qianxing without authorization?"

"...Doctor Hua, please go ahead."

"Tsk tsk, Qian Xing really doesn't understand the style, and I'm so sad." Hua Zhanyi tapped the chessboard with his fingers, looking at Luo Ci's somewhat helpless expression with a half-smile.

The breeze lifted a few new leaves from the branches, and the words hidden among them were like gentle sighs:

"Stain clothes."

The dark black eyes opened suddenly, and the scene in front of him quickly atomized, re-condensing into a dark tent.

Just now... He must have fallen asleep while sitting... He moved his stiff neck and right hand. Also, his physique after the serious illness had long been worse than before, and just a few hours of fast riding was already too much for him.

Hua Zhanyi stretched out her hand to pinch the center of her eyebrows, then rubbed her temples, and looked at the slightly darkening sky outside the tent door.

The season of thick autumn is getting shorter and shorter, and now it is probably the time of Shen.

He slept for nearly two hours, during which time no one had been here, at least, he could be sure that Luo Ci must not have been here by his sense of smell.No one knows the patient's body better than the doctor. Luo Ci's body has a faint sandalwood smell just like him. This smell can last for a long time in the place where he stayed, and can make the people in it feel the same. Assimilated to become calm, this smell used to linger around him for a long time, and it didn't dissipate until recently.

Luo Ci...

He heaved a long sigh.

Why would I still rush to see him impulsively?He was so angry and decisive when he made a clean break.

So, what is this emotion overflowing in the chest?The sourness and pain are intertwined, and there is a faint sweetness like illusion.

He must have been fooled by Huafei.

Unconsciously, he sneered empty-handedly, the drowsy exhaustion lingering on the top of his head, Hua Zhanyi simply lay down on the bed with his clothes on, and closed his eyes quietly.

Consciousness once again sank into the dim darkness with flowing light spots. In the half-dream and half-awake state, he heard slight footsteps. Someone opened the curtain. The scent of medicinal herbs.

The light sleep was broken instantly, Hua Zhanyi frowned.

who is it?

When Luo Ci walks, he will subconsciously use luck, so his steps are almost silent, and he will not even step on the flowers and leaves when walking through the sea of ​​flowers.Hua Zhanyi opened his eyes and looked towards the tent door, and saw a black robe with red edges, upwards, a red and black intertwined belt and a meticulous placket, loose black hair, tight lips and narrow phoenix eyes , with black eyebrows twitched into a ball, with an obviously unfriendly expression.

"You still dare to come here, my... good brother?" The man sneered as soon as he opened his mouth, his eyes were full of blatant disgust.

Pei Li, his former fellow apprentice, turned to medical classics because of his mediocre talent in acupuncture. After returning from a certain trip, his reputation suddenly increased. He was once considered by Xinglin's disciples to be the person most likely to obtain the True Inheritance of the King of Medicine, including him. Own.However, three years ago, a middle-aged man was thrown into Samsung Mochizuki by Pei Yuan, who was out for medical consultation. Since then, everything has turned upside down.

The man wept tearfully about what happened to the village. He said that a thousand-flower doctor rescued the villagers from the epidemic a few years ago, but then the elderly and children died for no reason in the village. Recently, even some young and middle-aged laborers have died one after another. However, the panicked villagers paid a lot of money to invite Taoist priests to exorcise the evil spirits.What Pei Yuan showed was a paper prescription, which contained a lot of medicinal materials that slowed down the poison. The medicinal properties were strong, and although the effect was quick, there would be endless troubles.

Sun Simiao was shocked, and hurriedly summoned the disciples to let the man identify him, but the result was unexpected, no one expected that this usually good and obedient

The young man was actually the culprit, and Sun Simiao was even more heartbroken.

On the contrary, Pei Li faced the situation calmly. He said, "I've already had enough of Wanhua Valley's self-styled medical principles. Even a few lives are so tense. How can I improve?"

From then on, Hua Zhanyi knew that this was... a young man who was arrogant and self-willed but indeed capable.

Hua Zhanyi lowered his eyes slightly, and quickly responded with a frivolous smile: "Even people like you... can be tolerated here, so why not?"

"Heh... It seems that senior brother thinks that it's safe to have a handsome ghost this time?" Hearing this, Pei Li's delicate face suddenly showed a grim expression, "Ha, since I can abolish your hand under Luo Ci's eyes , naturally can take your life in front of Guishuai!"

His right hand gripped the bed sheet tightly, his palm trembling slightly.

Pei Li was right.

Back then, after learning that Pei Li led a gang of villains to lynch him, Luo Ci did nothing but carried him back to Neigu when he couldn't move, and ordered Qu Liang to be called for treatment.Hua Zhanyi knew that Luo Ci, as the military adviser of the wicked valley, suppressed the matter flatly and let it go, just as naturally and calmly as he handled the people who sentenced the valley for the punishment hall.

But... even though he understood that being a prisoner has no position to criticize, Hua Zhanyi still felt the coldness and sadness to the bone. He realized that he really didn't understand Luo Ci at all. It must be him who was innocent and pure back then?He presumptuously thought that he could change this stone-like Taoist leader, presumptuously regarded the other party as a close friend, as the most special existence in life, and arbitrarily believed the words of that person when he left the valley.

Should he be thanked for his benevolence in remembering the old love?

This crippled right hand should be the price paid by the heart.

What an irony.

Thinking that he is so talented, he is still complacent about being able to make the Taoist priest blush, but he doesn't know that he is the buffoon... Rao Ziqi... Hehe, Rao Ziqi, if Luo Ci really wanted to play chess, he should have lost back then Are you defeated?Just like the current self, he is just a discarded chess piece in his hand, a useless person who still retains a bit of arrogance and self-esteem... It should be said that he can persist until now because of the resentment and revenge that he can't let go of. obsession?

Happily... not...

That's what makes me more disgusting.

All of Yu Luoci's words were nothing more than hypocrisy, but he... was serious.

He was so serious that after discovering Luo Ci's deceit and different attitude, he was extremely emotionally confused and finally stabbed Luo Ci with a sword.

The sword is Luo Ci's usual Huaying. When he was unprepared, he pulled it out from the man's back, held it with both hands and pointed it at the Taoist who heard the movement and turned back. The tip of the sword was pressed against his chest. The ground pierced in—three inches below the heart.

The snow-white skirt was dyed brilliantly, and the tip of the sword was almost stuck in the gap between the ribs, but the wound was not deep, because the eyes of the sword holder were already full of dazzling blood-red cinnabar dizzy images, and the sound of skin and flesh being ripped apart was eroding in his ears. It rang repeatedly, his hands trembled violently against his will, and the sword could no longer penetrate even half a point.

He still remembered Luo Ci's expression after being hit by the sword at that time: slight astonishment, surprise, and a little helplessness in the corners of his eyes, just like the look he was forced to compromise by himself back then, but soon this expression turned into the calmness he hated the most no waves.Luo Ci calmly held onto the blade of the sword to pull out the bloody sharp metal, tore off his sleeve and pressed the wound tightly, and said in a hoarse voice, "Get out of here."

The expected backhand sword did not appear, Hua Zhanyi was stunned, and the shadow in his hand fell to the ground with a "clang" and fell straight to the tip of his heart.

The person who was stabbed was Luo Ci, but the person whose face was pale and crumbling was his Huazhanyi.

I can't do it... I can't do it myself...

Haha... That's right... How could it be possible... You can do it...

"Zhanyi, I will trouble you here for a long time, and I will come to thank you in the future."

"Thank you? Qianxing, why are you being so polite? When the summer flowers are in full bloom, remember to come to Qingyan Wanhua to find someone to drink tea with."

"...Then respect is worse than obedience."

The swirling pure white clothes reflected the warm light of midsummer, and it was frozen into the most unforgettable picture in my life.

It's a pity that he couldn't wait until the second summer after all, and only waited for the urgent report that Hua Yuqi was captured by the forces of the Valley of the Wicked.

Kneeling down on the ground in exhaustion, one hand tightly clasped the rough sand and gravel on the ground, the other hand supported his forehead in pain, in the shaking vision between his fingers was the figure of that person leaving in a hurry, the reddish corners of his clothes fluttered in the wind.

can't go...

Suddenly, his jaw hurt, Hua Zhanyi recovered his senses and raised his head, facing Pei Li's face with twitching corners of his mouth.

"Are you actually distracted?!...Forget it, I think senior brother is afraid, after all, this is the territory of the Valley of the Wicked."

Frowning in disgust, he stretched out his hand to brush Pei Li's hand away, his black pupils slowly turned upwards: "Afraid...?" Flicking his wrist, the pen in his left hand touched Pei Li's throat in an instant, and his tone was as cold as ice, "If you think I'm going to It’s a big mistake to be the powerless doctor a year ago.”

"I, Hua Zhanyi, are not like you. When I encounter some setbacks, I give up on myself and go to crooked ways."

"Using a certain left-handed flower can also judge death and life."

"I'm afraid of you... Hmph, what are you?"

The sluggishness he saw earlier seemed to be an illusion, Ling Li's murderous aura acted as a mask, Pei Li moved his Adam's apple with difficulty, and a slight chill surged up his back.

Hua Zhanyi... This is his senior brother who became famous early on, the unparalleled master of the Haoqi League...

It really is unparalleled in the world, no wonder...

"No wonder..."

Pei Li took two steps back, his hands hanging down feebly.

"It's no wonder the military advisor treats you differently..."

……no the same?Hua Zhanyi narrowed his eyes slightly in astonishment, and his finger on the ink pen in his hand was still firm.However, Pei Li's eyes had already left the environment in front of him, as if he had drifted to a place he had never touched before.

"Senior brother... do you know how much I have paid to gain the approval of others? You will never know... this is something that talents like you will never understand! Even if I am exiled by the master, I will never give up I never thought of giving up my medical skills..."

"Junshi Luo...he is the first person that I can't heal but I don't want to be ruthless...Senior brother, do you know that he is really gentle..."

A dazed and subtle expression appeared on Pei Li's face, as if he was talking to himself, he said, "Back then, when I first entered the Valley of the Wicked, I was not recognized by Senior Xiao. At that time... I had no power to protect myself. Humans are not even as good as animals... It was almost a desperate situation for me. At that time, the Luo army division appeared beside me, and he said that the Valley of the Wicked needed me..."

"Brother, do you know this feeling... In a situation where there is no way forward and no way out, someone reaches out to you, saying that he is willing to believe in your ability..." As he spoke, Pei Li sneered and shook Shaking his head, "Brother, of course you don't know that a flower in a greenhouse like you is born with something that others can only dream of..."

Hearing these targeted words, Hua Zhanyi understood, so he raised his eyes and said lightly: "So, are you...jealous of me?"

"Yes! I'm just jealous of you!" Pei Li raised his head angrily and roared, his face flushed with anger, "Taisu Nine-needle Medicine Classics and Pharmacopoeia, you are the most playful among the disciples of your generation, why are you appreciated by others? You are the one who leads the coquettish!? What I, Pei Li, hate is God's injustice!"

"Junshi Luo is the first person who agrees with me unconditionally, the person I admire most besides Master, and the only person I want to be cured completely! But... I can't..." Pei Li gasped, The palms clenched into fists were shaking even with the shoulders, "I can't cure him...I can't cure him!! Why is it you! Why is it you who cured him!??"

Pei Li stared at Hua Zhanyi's unmoved face, gasping for breath.

"Military division...he is gentle to everyone, and I know that this kind of gentleness belongs to the Valley of the Wicked, and belongs to the entire camp...but...only you are different."

"From breaking the rules of the faction to voluntarily accepting punishment to bail you out of the valley, except for the fact that you had to take hostages at the beginning, everything the military division did after that was considered from your standpoint, even if you ended up in front of the villains in the valley. It made him lose face... As a military adviser on the cusp of the Valley of the Wicked, he deliberately protects a mouse here... Haha... Brother, you are so capable!!"

"The reason why your right hand was crippled was due to jealousy on the one hand, I admit it, but on the other hand, it was because everyone was worthless for the military division! It is true that you saved the military division Luo, but the military division did not do much for you. ! Ever since he knew that I was the leader of that incident, I have never been able to do anything for him in front of the military division this year. I won't lose my composure for anyone..."

"Brother...I'm really jealous of you...why am I not you!?" At the end, the voice was unknowingly choked with emotion, and the proud disciple Wanhua lowered his head in frustration, looking rather pitiful .

Hua Zhanyi looked coldly at Pei Li's cathartic roar, with a ruthless indifference on his face, after a long while, he quietly said:

"What you said... has nothing to do with me?"

"What does it have to do with you...you actually asked me what to do with you!?" Pei Li raised his head as if he had been shocked by an electric shock, his reddish eye circles were full of disbelief, "Let me tell you, senior brother, you stabbed Army Master Luo I saw that scene. In the end, I was the one who dealt with Army Master Luo's sword wound, because he didn't want anyone to take the opportunity to hurt you, and he knew that only I had the ability to keep my mouth shut."

"That night, because the wound was exposed for too long, the military commander fell into a coma with a high fever... I stayed with him all night, wiping his sweat to cool him down..."

"He woke up once in the middle and was unconscious. As soon as he saw me, he said to me, 'Why are you still here'."

"Then...then he called me..."

"'Zhanyi'..."

Those two words uttered from Pei Li's mouth, but hit his heart hard, as if traveling through time and space, with the warm wind and the slightly drunken fragrance.

"Stain clothes."

Hua Zhanyi couldn't see the resentment and sadness in Pei Li's gaze, and the blood-stained phantom of that person appeared in front of his eyes, and Luo Ci's voice calling him was ringing in his ears.

"Zhanyi." "Zhanyi."

"Zhanyi..."

be terribly upset…………

"Doctor Pei, there is an urgent matter for you to go to the general account office." A rough voice came from a trance, and Pei Li gave him a hard look before throwing his sleeves away.

However, all of this is silent in a trance like spinning around, Hua Zhanyi can't feel anything.

He listened to all Pei Li's words with his heart beating perfectly, and all the impressions about Luo Ci in his mind were entangled:

Frank, awe-inspiring, kind, gentle, indifferent, ruthless, strange...

In an instant, the corners of the eyes of the man lying on the stone table were soft, and in an instant, the expression of the man condescending in front of his eyes was indifferent.

In the dreams of the past, he accompanied the previous Luo Cijing to watch the moon and stars countless times, and he was pierced by the latter Luo Ci's sword countless times.

Hua Zhanyi hugged her head with both hands in pain, and whimpered softly from her throat.

Luo Ci...

You tell me……

Which...is the real you?

Sunset Ridge.

Tang Dapao landed steadily in the Haoqi camp with Shen Ruo in his arms, and unexpectedly found that the camp was busy.

"Who is it?" A group of Tiangang Guards in a hurry stopped in their tracks, raised their swords warily and pointed at the uninvited guest in front of them.

Tang Dapao put away the wings of the mechanism, silently reached into his pocket, took out a token and threw it over. After receiving it, Tiangangwei checked it carefully and then stepped forward and handed it back: "It turns out that it is the secret envoy of the Tianxuan Altar. I don't know who is here now. -"

Tang Dapao clasped his fists politely, and asked, "Brother, do you dare to ask if this punishment hall has captured a disciple of the Five Poisons from the Valley of the Wicked recently?"

"Five poisons...?" Tiangang Wei was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and shook his head after recalling carefully, "I have no impression."

At this time, another fellow Tiangang Guard seemed to remember something, leaned forward and asked: "The commander told us to pay attention to the disciples of the Five Poisons in the stronghold. It seems that he wants to use... a Gu doctor?"

Gu doctor?

Tang Dapao was slightly taken aback.

The isolated state of the Five Poisons Sect was loosened after Qu Yun ascended the throne, so there were not many Five Poisons disciples in the Haoqi League, and doctors who were proficient in Gu arts were even rarer.Ye Liancheng is going to use the Gu doctor at this time... Could it be that he was tricked in the previous battle?

While he was pondering and distracted, Shen Ruo at the side stepped forward with a smile on his face, and imitated the etiquette of the Central Plains, clasped his fists and bowed his head and said:

"This big brother, I am a Gu doctor, can you take me to meet the coach?"

"You..." Tiangangwei sized up Can Ruo with a little astonishment, "This... is quite a face."

Tang Dapao saw that the other party was suspicious, and hurriedly said: "This is the person I brought, and he doesn't usually act on the public face. I hope my brother will understand."

"Ah, I understand." The Tiangang Guard was easy to talk, and immediately pointed out a friendly expression with a very understanding expression, "The commander's tent is right there. I still have military affairs with me, so I can't go with him."

"Brother, you are welcome."

After saying goodbye amicably, Tang Dapao heaved a sigh of relief, but when he turned around, he saw that Shen Ruo had already walked out on his own, so he hurried to catch up.

"Then...well, why did you..."

"Stupid, Ye Liancheng must know what others don't know, and now there is a great opportunity in front of him, so don't ask for nothing."

"But... you are not from the Valley of the Wicked..."

"What do you want?"

"..."

"Don't worry, I'm not interested in Ye. I'm here to help you save Quliang, understand?"

"Oh...then...then don't run around."

"Ah?" Shen Ruo turned his head and raised his eyebrows in dissatisfaction.

"I know this place well, and I'll show you the way." Tang Dapao walked up to Shen Ruo, intentionally or unintentionally, protecting him behind him.

Tsk, the veins on Shen Ruo's forehead twitched.

If it is said that the first thing he hates is being touched by others, then the second thing he hates is when someone underestimates him.

This guy named Tang Dapao... is so stupid that he can't even look at people!

Forget it, anyway...

Shen Ruo looked at Tangmen's generous back in front of him, and slightly narrowed his dark eyes.
