no puppet

In just a short moment, Kang Wen was almost horrified by that strange face, seeing that the long sword in his hand was about to be unsheathed, Yin Chun stretched out his hand first, and blocked Kang Wen abruptly, saying: "Don't go!"

Immediately afterwards, in the depths surrounded by withered grass in the backyard, Xie Hengyan mournfully called out without warning: "Daddy... What's wrong with you, Daddy!!!"

Xie Cong was still on the wooden reclining chair, wearing a blue-gray long gown that had faded slightly by then, his skinny fingers were hanging down on the side of the armrest, and there was no movement at all from the beginning to the end.Especially the haggard frontal face, which is no different from that of a skeleton, if you don't examine it carefully, it is even difficult to distinguish the delicate and handsome outline in the past.

Yin Chun remembered that although Xie Cong was old, his facial features were as beautiful and delicate as a puppet of his senior brother. If it weren't for the stupid look that often appeared on Xie Hengyan's face, ordinary people might not be able to distinguish What is the difference between his father and son.

"Father!!" Xie Hengyan held Xie Cong's icy palm and couldn't help calling out, "Father, what's wrong with you? Talk to me..."

Kang Wen couldn't get used to it, he took a step forward to the side of the reclining chair, put his hand under Xie Cong's ghostly nose, and then taunted him, "I'm out of breath, why don't you talk to your father? I can talk!"

Xie Hengyan turned around suddenly, but it was a pair of blood eyes that were so red and shining, the fierce and fierce aura was clearly visible, and Kang Wen was so frightened that his heart beat wildly. What are you staring at me for? Do you think I will be afraid?"

Yin Chun said coldly: "Kang asked!"

"At this time, you still have the heart to protect him!" Kang Wen gritted his teeth and said angrily, "How did you teach me back then, have you forgotten everything by now?"

With a bang, Xie Hengyan stepped forward, and his sharp fingers and claws just brushed against Kang Wen's long sword. Kang Wen was about to raise his hand to unleash the sword, when Yin Chun stepped forward again, clasping one hand on Xie Hengyan's wrist, The other hand reached Kang Wen's long sword, Ling Ran and Xie Hengyan said: "Yan Yan stop, don't hurt him!"

Naturally, Xie Hengyan had nothing to say, pushed Yin Chung and Kang Wen away, turned around and held Xie Cong's skinny wrist, and continued calling: "Daddy!...Xie Cong, Xie Cong, wake up!"

"I can't wake up." Yin Chun pressed Xie Hengyan's shoulder and said in a low voice, "You haven't noticed yet? The barrier time here is frozen, and everything around is still dead things... No matter how you push him, he won't wake up .”

Xie Hengyan's eyes suddenly turned red, and she asked Yin Chun, "But... why did Xie Cong become like this?"

Kang Wen couldn't help but said: "It's said that it's just a barrier, why are you suddenly crazy?"

"If the enchantment is really a time frame, it means...it means that this room was stationary for a certain period of time..." Xie Hengyan tremblingly said, "Then Xie Cong's current appearance must have existed in real life! He was really injured, or he was sick, or why did he suddenly leave me alone and leave without saying goodbye?!"

"Calm down!" Yin Zhu couldn't help pulling him into his arms, and comforted him in a deep voice, "Maybe it's just an illusion, don't get confused... Let's go and have a look elsewhere, there are always other places in your house, maybe we can What clues did you find?"

"Of course there is." Although Xie Hengyan got up, his eyes never left Xie Cong for a moment, "But my father..."

Yin Chun patted him on the back, and said slowly: "Let's look elsewhere first, and it won't be too late to come back to find your father... He won't get up and leave after all, don't be afraid, I'll accompany you, if there is anything If so, it's all my fault."

Xie Hengyan sighed with deep eyes: "Yin Chun... You know it well, I can't possibly blame you."

When the words fell, Yin Chun had already dragged her to her feet and hurried her away from the backyard.Xie Hengyan was a little reluctant at first, but after turning around and entering the wooden house, he saw all kinds of unchanging decorations all around, and he couldn't help feeling a little bit suspicious in his heart—if this scene was said to be a scene from a certain place on Tongjing Island, It is at a time point, which means that everything in front of us has happened, that is, it has existed. However, in the final analysis, when will this be Tongjing Island?

As for Xie Cong, how did he become like this?

Xie Hengyan couldn't figure it out, and in the end, he could only return to the front hall of the wooden house with Yin Chu.Entering the front hall, there is a wooden corridor more than a foot long to the left. There is the bedroom and study where Xie Cong used to live——Xie Cong's personal preference is very obvious. At the end, there are extremely complicated chains and barriers hidden, which must be impossible for ordinary people to crack.

On weekdays, Xie Hengyan never stepped into Xie Cong's room, or in other words, she had no intention of creating a quarrel with him - so most of the time, Xie Hengyan would try to avoid Xie Cong's personal space as much as possible, unless it was necessary to have contact with him , Xie Hengyan would not take the initiative to disturb Xie Cong when he was alone.

But the current situation is obviously different.

They were in an inexplicable barrier, and the haggard man in the backyard of the wooden house was definitely Xie Cong. On the one hand, because of the existence of still time, Xie Hengyan was vaguely looking forward to finding another place. The passage of the time node, and then successfully found a complete and uninjured Xie Cong, which at least temporarily reassured him.

It was with the courage brought by this anticipation that Xie Hengyan dismantled the traps that formed obstacles along the way, and finally walked to the end of the corridor, slowly pushing Xie Cong's usual bedroom half a slit away.

"Daddy?"

Xie Hengyan called softly.

Unfortunately, there was no Xie Cong in the bedroom.Xie Hengyan had no choice but to be patient, stepped over the threshold again, and stepped into the door carefully from the corridor, Yin Chun followed closely behind him, never leaving.Xie Hengyan was afraid of accidents, so she turned around and reminded: "Be careful where you step, my father's room has no fewer organs than the ones outside, don't get hurt by those little gadgets."

Before he finished speaking, Kang Wen swished a throwing knife across the air from behind the door, leaving a long bloodstain on his arm.Immediately, Yin Chun turned around, grabbed Kang Wen's wrist, and scolded anxiously: "What are you doing? You just said that there is a mechanism, and you don't have ears?"

Kang Wen hissed and screamed in pain: "I thought it was an illusion in the enchantment!"

Yin Zhu lowered his head to check his wound: "Is it poisonous or not?"

"It's probably slightly poisonous, just tap the acupuncture points to stop the bleeding." Xie Hengyan said, "It won't be life-threatening."

Kang asked, "How do you know that your life is not in danger? What if I die here?"

Xie Hengyan said impatiently: "My own family, don't I know?!" After finishing speaking, she turned around and was too lazy to waste time with him.

——The layout of Xie Cong's room was the same as that of the front hall just now, without any change at all.

There are tables and chairs on the right hand side, where many fragmentary wooden joints are piled up, and it is not known what they are used for.On the left is a huge bookshelf nearly one person high, and above the head are some interesting playthings of wooden figures and birds, which can jump around flexibly when touched.

On the bookshelf, there are not many usable books.Looking around, there are probably piles of scrolls, except for the scrolls, there are piles of neatly stacked drawings, in which are drawn various sails and boat shapes, which seems to be one of Xie Cong's personal hobbies.

"Is this your father's room?" Kang Wen stretched out his hand and flicked around the top of the bookshelf, "What are these things? It's a mess, a lot of paper..."

Yin Chun said: "Don't move around. Be careful of hidden weapons."

However, after saying this, it was too late.Kang asked that his hands were missing for a day or two, and with a slight hook inward, the scrolls on the bookshelf fell in piles and scattered all over the floor.

As soon as Xie Hengyan turned around, he saw the snow-white blueprints flying all over the sky, and a few of them were left on the corner of the table not far away——this moment, Xie Hengyan was completely enraged, and he turned around immediately, looking like he was about to Fighting him desperately, Kang Wen is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Seeing Xie Hengyan flying towards him, he hurriedly retreated a few steps, and the half-opened long sword rushed out again, pointing directly at the vital point between Xie Hengyan's eyebrows, every word loudly Said: "Monster, I warn you... Don't think that my senior brother is here, I dare not do anything to you. When you get out of this barrier, you can only be a prisoner, what else is there to be arrogant? "

Yin Chun frowned and shouted, "Kang Wen!"

Kang Wen looked sideways, and Fang wanted to rush to say something, but in the gap of lowering his head, he unintentionally glanced at the scattered scrolls on the ground.

——But between the piles of miscellaneous items and books, there is a yellowed scroll with portraits painted on it. It seems to be quite old, and the corners of the four pieces of paper are obviously broken. volume.

As for why Kang asked why he noticed such a scroll?

In fact, the moment his attention was drawn to the portrait, Yin Chun behind him, including the furious Xie Hengyan in front of him, all cast doubtful gazes towards the ground at the same time.

In the end, Yin Chun took the initiative to take a step forward in order to calm things down, picked up the scroll, unfolded it completely downwards, and shook it lightly.

Xie Hengyan immediately showed a nervous expression, and said, "Be careful...don't tear up my father's painting."

Kang asked: "What time is it, are you still afraid of tearing the painting?"

After saying that, he stretched out his hand and smoothed out the accumulated folds of the scroll.At this time, the facial features of the person in the painting were finally fully displayed in front of everyone—the first thing that caught the eye was a thin shirt close to the color of snow, with delicate and handsome eyebrows and eyes, and the pale complexion blended with the painting paper. But it seems to have a hint of indifference, even the indifference of playing in the world.

When Xie Hengyan saw him for the first time, he felt an indescribably familiar feeling.He turned his head to ask Yin Zhu: "... who is this?"

Unexpectedly, Yin Chun also had an expression of unbelievable horror.After a long period of silence, Kang Wen still couldn't restrain himself, and blurted out first: "The person in this portrait is... Lord Youqing!"

Xie Hengyan froze suddenly: "Who... Who do you think this is?"

"Shenjun Youqing." Yin Zhu pondered for a moment, then Fang said, "I used to take care of the shrine, so I naturally remember clearly what his statue looks like."

After what he said, Xie Hengyan vaguely recalled that when they were repairing the statue in Fuze Mountain, they had some residual impressions of You Qing's appearance - but the statue had a history of nearly a hundred years, which caused You Qing My own face has already been half-flattened by the wind and sand, and now I compare his appearance with the person in the painting, and there are only vaguely similar outlines.

And the most surprising thing right now is...

"Why does Xie Cong collect the portrait of Youqing Shenjun?" There is no inscription on the inside or outside of the scroll, no date and signature, and no specific identity of the person in the painting. It is only their half-certain and half-hesitant guess that it is the portrait of Youqing Shenjun. .

Yin Chun asked: "Your father believes in the Lord Youqing?"

"No..." Xie Hengyan shook his head and said, "I never mentioned it to me before, not to mention that Tongjing Island is far away from Laifeng Town, and there is no chance to contact the living god in the deep mountain and old forest."

Kang asked: "Then why is he hiding this portrait? It can't be stolen from somewhere."

"Trouble to accumulate some morals." Xie Hengyan said, "My father has always been aboveboard, and he doesn't bother to do such trivial things."

Yin Chun said, "Except for your father, has anyone else lived in this house?"

"Yes, when my father was young, he married a wife and left behind a child. It's a pity that both of them left early, and none of them have accompanied him until now." Xie Hengyan replied, "I heard Said, it was the man named Fang Yan who personally sent me to his side... As for whether Fang Yan lived here for a long time, I have no impression."

"Wait... Who are you saying sent you here?" Kang Wen's eyes widened suddenly, and he asked in amazement, "Fang what?"

Xie Hengyan: "Fang Yan."

"You guys are so courageous!" Kang Wen stood up abruptly, held the sword in his hand, and shouted with complete vigilance, "Do you know what crime is in the capital for colluding with that devil now?"

"I don't know what kind of crime I am. I only know that Fang Yan saved my life back then, and he gave me a shelter from the wind and rain." Xie Hengyan looked very calm, facing Kang Wen's threat, He said almost calmly, "If you are determined to stand on the opposite side and try every means to make me unhappy——I have my own way to keep you here, and you will never go out again for eternity."

Kang asked: "You..."

When these words came out, Xie Hengyan stretched out his hand, trying to close the scroll and put it away—but in this inadvertent action, there was a particularly crisp sound in his ears, and suddenly there was a half-rusty metal object , along the innermost end of the scroll and slid all the way to his feet.

"What is it?" Kang asked, his heart beating wildly, and he asked in surprise.

"key?"

Yin Chu bent down, picked up the object, and put it carefully in his hands—it really was a bunch of rusted blue-gray keys, and the fine iron slag was stained on his hand at that time, almost staining Yin Chu's warm palm. dark.

I finally... Chapter 260, click the question

Originally, this article was called "Seeking in the Beauty of Immortals". In the earliest setting, Xie Hengyan was a fairy and not a monster. He has a subtle connection with Youqing Shenjun. Although the main setting has been changed, the main line has not changed. , You Qing + Xie Hengyan + Fang Yan + Xie Cong are a mutual cyclical relationship, and any two of them can be separated out to be the hidden story line.

Then the keyword of Youqing Shenjun... well, it is the game world.

The days they worked hard to see from the perspective of God (You Qing) are actually no different from games~
