Homecoming through online games

=====================

The two of them stood like this, and even time seemed to be frozen.

Maybe it was a while, maybe it was a long time.Ye Mu raised his hand resting on Jiang Wang's back, and put it on the back of Jiang Wang's neck, and pressed his fingers through the soft hair to the back of his head.

Skin-to-skin contact, the warm palm and the cold skin meet, and after a long time, a delicate balance has been reached and the temperature has become the same.I just don't know who is cold or who is warm.

Ye Mu said, "Jiang Wang, you haven't done this yet, have you?"

Jiang Wang said, "Yes, I haven't done this yet."

"That's enough." Ye Mu said, "Jiang Wang, please don't do this."

Jiang Wang laughed lightly and said, "What if I say no?"

"I don't know... Maybe I will tie you up and not let you go anywhere?" Ye Mu said jokingly, but there was no smile in his voice, and he couldn't tell how serious it was, he said , "Jiang Wang, if it is your wish, I will do my best to help you achieve it. But handing over the formula to the demon is not your final wish, right? There are many ways to achieve a goal, and there is no need to choose The worst one. I remember you said that monsters are a society where the weak prey on the strong, and no matter how many monsters interfere with your status, I will help you kill them. So, please don’t do this.”

"Fighting and killing all the way there?...It's the same as your intelligence gathering method, really rough and direct." Jiang Wang said with a little sarcasm.

"Rough and direct? How should I say it?" Ye Mu cooperated and changed the subject, intending to ease the atmosphere first.

"There are many ways to find out the root cause of the epidemic. I have already said the matter of Dinghunxiang is very obvious. The simplest way is to question Baicaotang based on the reason for the destruction of the Seven Killing Hall. Find out what Gu Xingyan said at the time. What he did in that field can easily expose his true face. Even if he guessed wrong, just say it was a misunderstanding. Baicaotang will not pursue the discovery of demon energy in that field as an excuse. I I think you can't think of this method, but you chose the most troublesome one, why?"

With a little attention, it is still very easy to know what Ye Mu did.

Tell Baicaotang about the field and let them study the solution to the disease.He tested Gu Xingyan to confirm whether the epidemic was his handiwork, and finally diverted his attention with the matter of Dinghunxiang, which not only aroused Gu Xingyan's killing intent, but also made the other party unable to restrain themselves and speed up their actions.Thanks to him for making the two principals of Baicao Hall believe in him.This style of doing things is not at all the routine of the Palace of Seven Kills.If you doubt someone, you should not be afraid to let the other party know that he is suspicious of him. If you want to know something, you can directly ask someone who may know.In the end, they approached Gu Xingyan directly to propose cooperation. If it didn't coincide with what he said perfunctorily to Gu Xingyan earlier, it is still unknown whether the two people would fight and startle others.

Really... It made him want to hold his forehead and sigh, so rude and direct that he could hardly bear to look directly at him.

"Well... as I said, there are many ways to achieve a goal." Ye Mu didn't feel ashamed at all when his way of doing things was despised.He continued to seize the opportunity to brainwash Jiang Wang. In order to enhance his persuasiveness, he even started boasting: "The method you said is simple, but if you make a wrong guess, it will not only increase the difficulty of the subsequent investigation, but also easily startle the snake. Although my method is troublesome Some, but the advantage is that it is safe, comprehensive and detailed, and will not miss any suspicious things. Look," he tightened his arms and said with a smile, "doesn't this let me catch a hidden accomplice?"

"Well, even if your method is effective." Jiang Wang said, "Do you think I will believe that you didn't use that method because you were worried about 'striking the grass to scare the snake'?" He accentuated these four words.

"Well, I was discovered." Ye Mu said, finally stopped messing around, and answered the question seriously, "Jiang Wang, I'm used to considering the worst in everything, but I won't go there without solid evidence. Define a person at will. Gu Xingyan did the matter of fixing the soul incense. It is true that he colluded with the demons. But before confirming that the matter of the epidemic is also from him, I don’t want to use "Gu Xingyan colluded with the demons. Accusing Baicaotang against him for spreading the disease in Xiliang. If I really had no choice, I would do it, but as you said, there are many ways, there is no need to insist on this, is it?” he said Pun intended.

"Your intelligence collection performance is not brilliant...but I seem to be convinced by you." Jiang Wang said lightly, "For the sake of tongue, your ability is considered to be a pass, and you are barely trustworthy. I promise You won't do that."

It took Ye Mu a few seconds to realize what Jiang Wang had agreed to. He was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and said with a smile, "Thank you for your trust, please look forward to it."

Finally, after hugging Jiang tightly for a while, he let go of his arms and pulled a little distance away, becoming a state where he could see each other's expressions clearly, but he didn't let go completely.He leaned closer and said in a low voice: "Speaking of words is such a high evaluation, I really have to work very hard to live up to your expectations."

Jiang Wang obviously understood the meaning of these words, and was about to say something, but Ye Mu didn't give him this chance, a particularly passionate kiss blocked all the unfinished words.

Well, it really takes a lot of effort.

There was a sound of footsteps, and the voice of conversation came here.Two young disciples in poison costumes walked across the backyard towards the path.Talking and laughing while walking.

"Brother Gu really gave us a sigh of relief this time! Haha, look at the expressions of those guys."

"I don't know what to talk about in today's evening meeting. Hey, if you want me to say, you have to laugh at those guys. A dog bites Lu Dongbin, and he doesn't know a good heart. Brother Wen is really, always let us take into account some kind of fellowship, but I didn’t see those guys caring about it! At that time, they still wanted to do something, it’s so funny, even if they did, wouldn’t our poison department be afraid of them.”

"I can't help it. You also know that Senior Brother Wen likes that Jingtong, and the hero is still sad about the beauty pass. Eh? Who is in charge of cleaning today, so lazy. Look at the leaves in this place, even the ones on the table don't know how to sweep them away." .”

"Forget it, don't worry about it. There are so many things recently, and it is inevitable that some omissions are inevitable. Besides, in the current season, it may be newly dropped after cleaning, and we don't have time to come over to find someone to play chess. Let's put it aside. Go back and rest quickly , I will save up enough energy tonight, and get back this worthless bastard with profit."

The two of them talked, pushed open the fence gate of the backyard and walked out, gradually walking farther along the path.

On the dense big tree, the two culprits, who had been disturbed by their good deeds, hid in embarrassment, and knocked off leaves all over the ground, looked at each other after watching them leave.

Leaning back against the tree trunk, Jiang Wang looked at Ye Mu, who still had a yellow leaf slanting down on his shoulder, and laughed silently.It's different from the friendly smile that He Liang always wore when he was He Liang, and it's not the cold smile that Jiang Wang occasionally shows.It was a bright smile that was genuinely funny and undisguised.Fragments of golden sunlight fell on his face through the branches and leaves, and even his facial features softened, warming as if those gloom and madness had never existed.

When Ye Mufu saw Jiang Wang like this, he lost his mind.

He didn't realize that there was also a natural smile on his face.Pleasant and relaxing.

When there was no one around, the two jumped down from the tree and started talking about what they just heard.

"Gu Xingyan and the demons have been in contact for a long time. This time he took advantage of the opportunity of the demons to invade, and he probably has a second trick. I have seen him do things these days, but they are all related to this epidemic. I just don't know what he is studying. The last time you mentioned Dinghunxiang, he was a little frightened, and he sped up his actions, which gave me some clues. I suspect that his plot is not small, and he is plotting against the entire Baicaotang. In addition The time you agreed with him, what is his plan, the answer must be in today's evening meeting. What is your mission description?" Jiang Wang asked.

The evening meeting of Baicao Hall will be held every three days, and all disciples who have not gone out and have no errands to participate in the internal exchange meeting of the sect.They will discuss some difficult problems encountered in medical practice or research, or exchange ideas from each other's exploration and research. When there is nothing to do, they also have some meanings of fellowship with each other to enhance their relationship. If there are any major events or decisions in the school, they are usually in the The occasion is announced.

Ye Mu repeated the mission description.Jiang Wang nodded happily and said, "Okay, I promise you that I will help him keep the secret."

[For the Mountain Nine Ren] Gu Xingyan entrusts you to help him keep his secret.

【Task progress】40/100

[Current Status] You promise not to tell Qishadian about Gu Xingyan, nor tell Baicaotang about his relationship with the epidemic.The insider promised not to reveal the secret. It seems that today's evening meeting should be passed safely?

Ye Mu repeated the mission description again, and said, "For the sake of the mountain, I will fall short...Maybe something will go wrong in today's evening meeting."

"It's really an unlucky task name. It seems that Gu Xingyan's luck is very bad." Jiang Wang smiled thoughtfully, "It's not bad for me to watch the show, but don't even think about asking me to help him. Trouble is the limit. At that time, you will have to worry a lot. How to choose, I think you have your own choice... Don't worry too much about the rewards of the troublesome task. This resurrection technique is secret, but I want to know the whole set There is still a way to get the content.”

"Okay." Ye Mu responded in this way, and Jiang Wang mentioned the matter of the metamorphosis demon and the so-called "Master Demon God" last night, and asked, "I don't know if you have noticed this, that 'Devil God' is another What?"

Jiang Wang pondered for a moment, and then replied: "If the metamorphosis demon you mentioned is really that powerful, I went there more than ten times but never noticed anything unusual, probably because of the strong seal. As for its recent awakening, it may be affected by Under the influence of the increasingly turbulent demonic energy in the surrounding environment, some strength has been recovered to some extent. It is better to deal with it as soon as possible. These walking corpses are probably produced by the effects of epidemic diseases and demonic energy. People who died naturally did not change, so they should be treated with It's irrelevant."

After a pause, he looked at Ye Mu and said, "As for the 'demon god' it refers to, its status among monsters is almost the same as that in the 'game' you mentioned. Basically, it is equivalent to gods, faith and It exists like a ruler. However, I have never seen it in person. I just heard that it has great supernatural powers, such as killing people with a single thought, flying into the sky and escaping from the ground. Specifically, there is no detailed description. Among the demon generals, they can meet the demon god There are very few people, only those demon guards will often serve the demon god. There is also a very favored priest who can be regarded as the demon god's messenger, and convey the demon god's will on his behalf."

Speaking of this, he asked with interest: "Speaking of which, the 'game' in your place is so similar to the world here. Since there are even 'devil gods', I don't know the history of the six sects." Is there any similarity? You said that the time there was many years faster than this world, but the "demon god" still existed at that time. If it is really the same person, it is really enough to be called a god-like existence. What kind of sect is it like, and what stories have been handed down from the Seven Killing Palace? There is nothing left and right now, why don't you find a place where you can tell something?"

So time flies by in one story after another.I heard that in the game, in the history of the Palace of Seven Kills, there was a crisis of extermination when monsters invaded and was forced to relocate. Jiang Wang just lost his mind for a while, and then recovered his mood, and changed the topic to ask about other interesting things Come.

In a blink of an eye, it was time for the evening meeting, and the two went to the meeting hall ahead of time, each found a safe and hidden corner, hid themselves and began to watch the show.

As the time approached, Baicao Hall disciples wearing two-color disciple uniforms entered the conference hall in groups of three or four, and each found a place to sit down with the disciples they were close to. The originally empty hall became overcrowded after a while.If you pay attention, you will find that many of the medicine disciples who are surrounded by them are pale and recovering from a serious illness, but judging by the talking and laughing appearance, they seem to be in good spirits.The disciples of Baicao Hall paid great attention to each other when they talked, and tried to keep their voices within a small range. Even so, hundreds of people sat in it, and the conversation was enough to form a buzzing sound. Come on, the hypnotic effect is excellent.

When he was drowsy, Ye Mu glanced at the familiar figure at the door, but it was the brothers and sisters Jing An and Wen Zhuang who walked in.No matter if they were medicine-type disciples or poison-type disciples, many of them greeted them with smiles. It was obvious that despite the drastic changes, the popularity of these people was still very good on weekdays.

At the moment, less than half of the dozens of chairs placed beside the long table in the conference hall are occupied, but most of the seats are still empty.Ye Mu noticed that this seemed to follow a certain pattern.Most of the people sitting at the table are older, calm, or high-spirited people, who have both medicine and poison, and they don't sit according to personal preference.Most of those disciples who appeared to be newcomers or younger at first glance went directly to the chairs scattered around the hall to sit down. Even if they couldn't find a seat for a while, they didn't go to sit at the long table.It seems that the chairs beside this table also represent some status measurement in Baicaotang in a sense.

After entering the hall, Jing An and Wen Zhuang Jingtong separated, and each went to choose a seat.Looking at the direction of walking, Jing An was walking towards the head seat of the long table, Wen Zhuang and his seat were separated by two or three empty seats, and Jing Tong was further away.

At this time, there was a bigger commotion at the entrance of the meeting hall.

A group of disciples with blue borders on their cuffs rushed in noisily, and one of them was hugging Gu Xingyan.It's only been a day, and he looks like he's getting thinner and thinner. The thick blue-black eyes make Ye Mu worry about him, so don't beat yourself to death before the task is completed.

Those disciples chatted with him affectionately, their voices were a bit loud, making the people sitting nearby frown, but it was hard to say anything.And Gu Xingyan's expression was neither cold nor hot, and he occasionally replied with a simple sentence or two.He didn't find a place to sit, just stood there with his hands folded in his sleeves, as if he was waiting for something.Even the group of poison disciples who came in with him refused to disperse. A group of people stood there densely, looking very eye-catching in the conference hall where most of the people had already taken their seats.There was obviously something wrong with the atmosphere. When the disciples who walked in from behind passed by them, they would glance at them quietly, and then hurriedly searched for their positions.

After a while, there were crisp and melodious chime bells, jingling one after another.Following this sound, the voices in the hall stopped, and an extraordinarily quiet place immediately appeared.But at this time, in the crowded meeting room, the group of people standing alone was not only eye-catching, but also abrupt.

Gu Xingyan moved at this moment.He smiled coldly and walked towards the long table.And the disciples of the poison department behind him scattered like birds and beasts with a bang, with some secret excited expressions on their faces, and hurriedly found a place to sit.

The eyes of hundreds of people in the hall fell on Gu Xingyan.But as if he didn't realize it, he walked past the seats beside the long table, taking those sights with different meanings as if they didn't exist.

Following his footsteps all the way forward, there was some commotion in the hall, but no one said anything.Even Jing An, who was seated at the top, just watched him walking in silence.

As the seats were left behind by Gu Xingyan one by one, he was getting closer and closer to the end of the long table, and finally he came to Wen Zhuang's side, and was about to walk over, but Wen Zhuang grabbed his arm.

Gu Xingyan lowered his head, looked at Wen Zhuang, and asked politely: "Senior Brother Wen, what do you mean?" The voice was not loud, but in the extremely silent hall at the moment, everyone could hear clearly.

There was no smile on Wen Zhuang's face, but his expression was not serious either.He stood up, blocked Gu Xingyan's way intentionally or unintentionally, and said, "Junior Brother Gu, you deserve this chair."

There was a commotion in the hall, but when Wen Zhuang raised his eyes and looked around the hall, it became silent again.Wen Zhuang turned his gaze back to Xing Yan and said, "Junior Brother Gu, you sit on this chair."

It was an invitation, but it also seemed to have a hint of exhortation.

Gu Xingyan and Wen Zhuang looked at each other for a moment, then smiled.To be honest, this smile, on his face that was so thin at the moment, was lined with those two huge black and blue eye bags, which seemed a little scary.He said: "Brother Wen's chair, how can I sit on it. With Brother Wen's ability, sitting on this chair is already a great talent, how dare I fight for it again." He seemed to want to move his hand away Unexpectedly, Wen Zhuang seemed to be holding on quite tightly, but he couldn't break free for a while.If you try to break free, it will be too ugly to pull and pull.

So he stopped and said, "Senior Brother Wen, I know you care about your personal friendship and fellowship. However, rules are rules, but Senior Brother Wen feels that with Gu Xingyan's ability, he can't be the front seat?"

Wen Zhuang glanced at Gu Xingyan silently, then turned his gaze to the chief, and met Jing An's gaze.He was silent for a moment, let go of Gu Xingyan's hand, and sat back heavily in his seat.

Gu Xingyan smiled again, and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Wen, for fulfilling the task." Then he didn't stop, walked straight past the second and third empty chairs, and stood beside the chair at the top of the long table.

It was Jing An who was sitting on that chair. He watched Gu Xingyan walking all the way, and there was no surprised expression on his face at the moment, but asked: "Junior Brother Gu, it seems that he wants to compete for the chief position. gone?"

"There is no priority in learning, and those who have mastered it come first." Gu Xingyan first saluted respectfully, then put his hands in his sleeves, and slowly straightened up.

"Gu Xingyan is not talented, so I want to invite Senior Brother Jing to change positions."

Following this sound, the hall seemed to be unable to hold back any longer, and the sound of buzzing conversation suddenly rose, and in an instant, the hall became full of excitement!

In the noisy hall, Gu Xingyan and Jing An looked at each other silently, with an unmistakable mocking sneer on his skinny face.

Jing An placed his hand on the armrest of the chair.If you look closely, you will find that this seat is slightly different from other seats.The armrests are wider, and on the inconspicuous side, there is a row of hollow copper pipes with different thicknesses and sizes for unknown purposes.

Jing An tapped one of the copper pipes with his fingertips, and there was a trembling sound that ordinary people could not hear. It was the same as before, but the rhythm of the chime bells was more rapid, and the discussion was like a torrential rain. There was a sound in the hall, and the sound in the hall was suddenly quiet.

Ye Mu rubbed his ears and cursed secretly.On the beams, the chimes sounded especially clear.The first burst of bells just now was okay, but this sudden burst of bells came so fast that his heart stopped beating for a moment in shock.

He looked in the direction where Jiang Wang was, but Jiang Wang was so hidden that he couldn't even see half of his clothes from this angle.Naturally, I don't know the other party's situation at the moment.

So Ye Mu had no choice but to look away and continue to look into the hall.

In the living room, Jing An was sitting on a chair, meeting Gu Xingyan's gaze, although it was from an angle that required him to look up, he was not at all impetuous.He shook his head, and said clearly: "Jing An believes that Gu's self-cultivation is not enough to compete for the chief position."

When this sentence was said, Gu Xingyan acted smugly, needless to say, even Wen Zhuang was taken aback.Not to mention the disciples in the hall, the hall that had just quieted down became noisy again, mixed with a lot of shouting and cursing.The poison disciples who walked in with Gu Xingyan stood up abruptly, shouting loudly, "Why?!" "It's not fair!" "Coward!" And needless to mention.

Wen Zhuang frowned fiercely, stood up, and punched the long table hard, making a loud noise, and the whole table trembled.The hall was silent again.Those disciples of the poisonous department who were filled with righteous indignation and yelled and cursed happily also shut their mouths, looked at me and looked at you, and quietly sat back in their seats.

Wen Zhuang then turned to Jing An, frowned and asked in bewilderment, "Jing An, why?"
