The villain is my brother

"Our goals are the same, because you are me." Shen Mo followed and persuaded.

Shen Yebai lowered his head and seemed to be in deep frustration.

Shen Mo raised the corners of his mouth slightly, feeling the depression from Shen Yebai, and felt that it was not serious for Shen Yebai to conceal himself. After all, it is normal for his subordinates to have disagreements, but he can always make them realize something is the right choice.

In order to better control Shen Yebai, he decided to give Shen Yebai a reason that he couldn't refuse: "As long as you complete the plan well, you won't need Honglian Yehuo, and Qin Moyu will be safe, otherwise... Fail, and he'll be in trouble."

Shen Yebai knew that Shen Mo was right, so...

"I will complete the plan." Shen Yebai whispered.

Shen Mo nodded in satisfaction, that's right.

"But." Shen Yebai suddenly changed the topic, raised his head, and looked firm.

"I am Shen Yebai, not you Shen Mo."

Shen Mo didn't understand why Shen Yebai was still obsessed with such insignificant things: "I've said it all, there is no such person as Shen Yebai in the world."

He was eloquent and full of confidence.

"But now." Shen Yebai looked at him and suddenly smiled.

"What do you mean?" Shen Mo frowned.

Shen Yebai knew the reason for his existence a long time ago—it was nothing more than to replace the inconvenient Shen Mo to promote the realization of the plan.

Whether it's for those like Zuo Mei who are afraid of him or those who hate him, what they see is Shen Mo, not him, Shen Yebai.

Those days when he followed Shen Mo's orders and carried out the plan, he didn't know what he really was. Humans were neither human nor ghosts, and the world was so big that he couldn't find a place to return to.

——Until he met Qin Moyu.

When he was seriously injured, he thought he was going to die, and he didn't want to die with the same face as Shen Mo, so he activated the formation and changed his face casually.

The days of recuperating by Qin Moyu's side are Shen Yebai's most cherished memories. Only when he is beside Qin Moyu and watched by Qin Moyu, can Shen Yebai feel that he is a person, a real person named Shen Yebai.

Instead of Shen Mo's substitute.

But the days of recuperating passed too quickly, and he had no choice but to continue to complete the plan under the urging of Shen Mo.

But after he separated from Qin Moyu that day, he began to hate his identity.

There is always a voice echoing in his heart: If I am not Shen Mo, but I am Shen Yebai, will I be able to stay by Qin Moyu's side forever?

Ever since he met Qin Moyu again, and after Guanlanzong realized his intentions, this voice was completely out of control.

——I don't want to leave Mo Yu.

This idea grew wildly like weeds, Shen Yebai even tried to hide from Shen Mo that Qin Moyu had the red lotus karma, which was the first time he violated "himself".

Although the matter was brought to light, Shen Yebai did not regret it.

Only the memories with Qin Moyu are unique to Shen Yebai, and only this relationship is unique to Shen Yebai.

"You actually don't know anything." Shen Yebai said firmly.

"No, I..."

Shen Yebai interrupted him: "You don't know my memories with him, nor my feelings for him, but I—"

He took a step forward, and changed from being slumped to mocking like Shen Mo: "I don't know your memory either."

He was aggressive and issued the simplest question:

"How can we be considered a person like this?!"

Shen Mo was stunned.

Separating the soul and becoming another person is a taboo technique he found in ancient books. In order to prevent the above-mentioned "splitting the soul back to bite" situation, he deliberately did not give Shen Yebai all his memories and abilities, but only gave him Part of it, but I didn't expect that it was because of this that Shen Yebai refused to admit his identity.

Shen Yebai remembered chatting with Qin Moyu that day, and he asked, "Moyu, what do you think is a person?"

"Well, human?" Qin Moyu sat on the swing swinging his feet up and down, and said with a smile: "A person who can run, laugh, eat, sleep, and even think about such a mess, isn't he a human?" .”

"I'm serious." Shen Yebai helplessly helped Qin Moyu push the swing under Qin Moyu's bright eyes, and got a bright smile from Qin Moyu.

Qin Moyu held the rope of the swing tightly, felt the softness of the wind blowing over his face, and the feeling of weightlessness in the swing, he laughed and said, "Where is there any standard answer in this world? Beasts in human skin abound. Who can tell the difference?" Clearly true or false? If you have to say..."

"I think therefore I am [Note 2] ah—Yebai—"

Qin Moyu didn't take Shen Yebai's question to heart, but suddenly remembered the famous philosophical quotes from his previous life, and felt that such philosophical questions had to be answered with philosophical quotes, but he didn't think that these words would bring Shen Yebai much harm. Heart shaking.

These words stayed in Shen Yebai's heart like a seed, and when he fell into self-pity and self-pity just now, Shen Yebai suddenly remembered that Shen Yebai realized that he had fallen into Shen Mo's trap from the very beginning.

It is true that Shen Mo said that Shen Yebai was split from him, but Shen Yebai did not exist just for Shen Mo.

From the moment Shen Mo decided to separate Shen Yebai, Shen Yebai was already different from Shen Mo.

He obviously has two memories and emotions that he doesn't have, how could Shen Yebai be Shen Mo?

Shen Yebai, who had calmed down from that kind of self-pity, quickly figured out Shen Mo's purpose, after all, to some extent, he was the person who knew Shen Mo best in the world.

"You keep emphasizing that I am you, because even you don't think I am you." Shen Yebai said calmly, and suddenly felt that Shen Mo was not as unfathomable as he imagined, "You never put me As you, you don't think I am you."

"Shen Mo, are you emphasizing so many times to convince me, or to convince yourself?"

Silence, dead silence.

Shen Yebai raised the corners of his lips, he had never gained the upper hand in a confrontation with Shen Mo, this was the first time, and it was Qin Moyu who was waiting for him to go back to give him this confidence.

There was a fire in Shen Yebai's heart, he desperately wanted to see Qin Moyu.

"I will continue to implement the plan for you - after avenging Qin Moyu."

Shen Yebai turned around and left after leaving these words, leaving Shen Mo alone in silence.

After Shen Yebai left, Zuo Mei re-entered the box, but she didn't speak, and stood quietly by the side.

Shen Mo didn't know when he was lying sideways on a feldspar, propping his chin with his hand, and unconsciously hooking his long hair with the other hand: "Do you also think what he said is right?"

Zuo Mei heard it clearly from outside the door, and she told the truth: "This subordinate doesn't know."

Soul splitting is a secret technique, and few people have used it since ancient times, let alone the situation of splitting souls to question the body like this, Zuo Mei thinks that both of them are reasonable.

On the one hand, Shen Yebai was indeed separated from Shen Mo, on the other hand, the memories of the two were indeed different, and they were not the same person.

Shen Mo sighed quietly: "I had thought that this would happen when the soul was separated, but I didn't expect it to be so serious."

It's just that Shen Yebai doesn't recognize his identity, but he even persuaded Shen Mo, almost getting Shen Mo into it.

As soon as these words came out, Zuo Mei couldn't help worrying: "Will your son's remarks have any impact on the emperor?"

"The divided soul does not return, and the soul is incomplete, how can you break through the Dao?"

When Shen Yebai was separated, Shen Mo would inevitably be affected, and had to retreat for many years to stabilize his cultivation. If Shen Yebai really disagreed with the two from the bottom of his heart, the best result would be that Shen Mo's cultivation would stagnate, and the worst would be that Shen Mo's cultivation would stagnate. The soul is permanently broken, and the cultivation base regresses or even dies.

"This..." Zuo Mei opened her eyes slightly, she didn't expect this matter to be so serious.

"Your Majesty, do you need...?" Zuo Mei gestured with obvious meaning.

If it is really impossible to control Shen Yebai, the best choice is to get rid of Shen Yebai.

Shen Mo shook his head: "If he dies, I will be more affected. But you don't have to worry too much—"

He turned his head to look outside the cave, looked at the blue sky and laughed softly: "It will solve this problem for me."

"After all, He can't wait for me to die."

……

When Shen Yebai found Qin Moyu, he was still looking at the reward order.

"I found the news." Shen Yebai whispered to Qin Moyu, Qin Moyu nodded, and the two left Yunqi Tower quietly.

Qin Moyu noticed that someone had withdrawn Yu Lin's reward order when he was leaving, and after changing back into his attire, he mentioned this matter to Shen Yebai: "Did Yun Qi Tower withdraw Yu Lin's reward offer just now?"

Shen Yebai nodded: "Yes."

As soon as he left the box, he had the reward order withdrawn, and he also ordered that no tasks related to Qin Moyu and Yu Lin be released.

Qin Moyu frowned. The person who can withdraw the task is usually the person who assigned the task. Mo Yuan is so obsessed with the box, why did he suddenly withdraw the reward?Did he know something?

"Mo Yu." Shen Yebai took a deep breath, clenched Qin Moyu's hand, with complicated eyes.

Qin Moyu's thoughts were interrupted by his actions, and he asked in puzzlement, "What's wrong?"

"Thank you." Shen Yebai said softly.

Qin Moyu was confused by his sudden thank you.

"Shh." Shen Yebai put his index finger in front of his lips.

With soft eyebrows, he smiled and said, "This is a secret."

Qin Moyu's brows and eyes were still slightly sad, like a lingering cloud.

Shen Yebai wanted to heal this sorrow for him, and also wanted to protect him from worries for the rest of his life.

"But I swear, one day I will tell you everything." Shen Yebai and Qin Moyu interlocked their fingers.

"I'll protect you," he said.

Even if you want to resist Shen Mo, even if you are an enemy of yourself, even if you are smashed to pieces.

Qin Moyu didn't know why Shen Yebai was so solemn all of a sudden, but he didn't ask too much. Since the death of his master, the only person he can rely on in this world is Shen Yebai.

"After revenge, let's come back and rebuild the sect." Qin Moyu looked in the direction of the sect, with a faint hope in his eyes.

"it is good."

They are like a ship caught in a stormy sea, relying on each other to keep warm on the deck in the storm, waiting for Chuwen after the rain.

——Even if the road ahead is gloomy, as long as I walk with you, I will have nothing to fear.
