Yu Hongchen

It was night, taking advantage of the charming moonlight, Shang Lixing pulled out Xie Liuchen who was huddled in the study, and said that he would take him out for a walk.Xie Liuchen was full of reluctance, but he couldn't be too self-willed under the fence of others, so he had to be taken away by Shang Lixing obediently, with resentment in his heart, he secretly cursed Shang Lixing several times.

When I came to the back mountain, I saw a bare wasteland in the shade of the trees, and the Sihai Sea lay quietly on the landside in the distance, shimmering slightly.Xie Liuchen looked and looked, and frowned strangely, "Why did you bring me here?"

Shang Lixing smiled and said: "I have a surprise for you." He pointed to a place in front of him, there was a sword-making furnace under the tree, and the lava was tumbling inside, and the fire was burning.Shang Lixing waved: "Come here."

Xie Liuchen felt an inexplicable sense of anticipation and uneasiness in his heart, looking at Shang Lixing with bright eyes, like a child.Follow Shang Lixing to that place and stop in front of the sword casting furnace.

Shang Lixing looked at the bright moon in the sky and said, "The time is coming soon."

Xie Liuchen stared straight at the sword casting furnace, and asked stupidly: "What is this?" Having said that, he found that his voice was trembling.

Shang Lixing blinked and smiled slyly: "Guess what it is."

Xie Liuchen stared blankly at the sword-forging furnace, and stood on the sidelines, careful not to move a step. Shang Lixing kept looking at him with a smile on his face.

At midnight, Shang Lixing said: "The time has come." Immediately after hearing Qingyue's cry, the sword casting furnace exploded, magma flowed all over the place, and instantly disappeared.A long sword slowly emerged from the transpiring white mist in the sky. The brilliance of the sword flowed like a star, and its color was like a white rainbow, reflecting each other with the bright moon in the sky.

Xie Liuchen couldn't help exclaiming: "Ah! This is—"

The long sword slowly landed in Shang Lixing's palm, and the brilliance disappeared immediately, revealing its original appearance.The hilt is engraved with glazed double beads, the whole body of the sword is blue and white, the heart of the sword is condensed into a bead redder than blood, faintly showing blood red veins, like human blood, running through the sword body vertically and horizontally.

Shang Lixing passed the long sword in his hand with both hands: "The natal sword that I promised you earlier has been forged."

Xie Liuchen took the sword with a trembling hand, and when he fully grasped the long sword in his hand, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and instantly felt a surge of spirit and awe-inspiring sword intent.The blade of the sword made a long sound, and the brilliance reappeared, which seemed to resonate with him tacitly.

Shang Lixing nodded and said, "It recognizes you as its master."

Xie Liuchen caressed the sword carefully, the hilt was in a square shape, which was a bit strange, and the handshake was round and fit, but it was very similar to the one hanging in his room.He slid one hand to the blade of the sword and looked through his eyes, only to find that the blunt edge was thicker than the gap between his fingers.He looked suspiciously at Shang Lixing.

Shang Lixing said with a smile: "Don't worry, don't worry, you have to wait for a few days, and you can use the sword after you recognize the master with your heart and blood."

Xie Liuchen said clearly: "So that's the case." He couldn't help asking: "How many days later?"

Shang Lixing replied: "Seven days later, I'm still here."

Xie Liuchen nodded, still stroking the sword fondly, Shang Lixing looked at him with a smile: "Give your natal sword a name."

Xie Liuchen said generously, "This is the sword you forged for me, so you can name it."

Shang Lixing thought for a moment, and said, "How about calling it 'Xiu Ming Sword'?"

"'Xiu Ming Sword'?"

Xie Liuchen repeated silently, nodded heartily and said, "Okay, it's called 'Xiuming Sword'!" He responded, put the sword in his arms again, wrapped his arms tightly around it, and said to the sword: "In the future, you will have name."

The Xiuming sword in his arms moved slightly, as if he was responding to his master's words.

Shang Lixing teased him, "How does it feel to hold the sword in your arms?"

"Very good." Xie Liuchen said dully, hugging Xiu Mingjian even tighter: "No wonder He Suwu held the sword in his arms all day, so this is the feeling of owning the sword of life."

Shang Lixing's full of love was almost beyond words, he gently stroked his smooth cheeks, he felt the night scene in front of him was hazy like a dream, and told him to drown in it, even if he died tonight, he would not regret it.

Xie Liuchen was in a good mood and didn't care about his intimacy.

The more Shang Lixing looked at him, the more intense the love in his heart burned, he couldn't help but blurt out what was in his heart: "Junior Brother Xie, do you know what I envy Wu Nian the most?"

Xie Liuchen lowered his head and played with the Xiuming Sword in his hand, then casually said, "What?"

Shang Lixing said quietly: "I envy him that he has a Taoist companion with the same soul. Back then, he and his lover had different positions and different races. They were strangers with different surnames, but regardless of the obstruction of their teachers, they formed a Taoist relationship connected by destiny. Companion, from now on the road walks together, life and death follow each other."

Xie Liuchen remembered Master Nan Xing's last words before he died, and said sadly, "They must love deeply."

Shang Lixing said again: "Do you know what I am most afraid of?"

Xie Liuchen shook his head.

Shang Lixing said shyly: "Wu Nian and Wu Nian broke through the issue of race and came together, but they also broke up because of the issue of race. They fell in love for decades and finally became a couple. I was thinking, if the years of entanglement are just a dream, and finally ended in embarrassment, then I might as well not."

Xie Liuchen heard his sad voice, his mind was touched, and he said clearly: "This is the reason why you don't have a Taoist companion."

Shang Lihang was very close, and said in a whisper: "I am afraid of losing, I am afraid of being wronged by my heart, I have always restrained myself, and tried to avoid being emotional. But since the first meeting in the secret realm, the conversation under the moon, and then Qian Qian Under the double shadow wall, I jumped out of the Youtong hole with you. I actually fell in love with you unintentionally. It wasn't until I saw you standing in front of me completely that I realized that love is a matter of love. It makes no sense."

Xie Liuchen stared at him blankly.Shang Lixing said again: "Thank you, junior brother, give me a chance, can you?"

Xie Liuchen was ignorant and asked in confusion, "...What are you talking about?"

Shang Lixing pressed a kiss on his cheek, the kiss was very light and soft, his voice was so soft that water dripped out: "Do you understand what this means?"

Xie Liuchen's head exploded with a bang, his eyes widened, and he was tongue-tied: "You, you, what are you talking about? You like me?"

Shang Lixing looked at him almost pleadingly: "Yeah, I know it's very abrupt for me to do this, but I can't take it anymore, I think about you all the time, I want to please you, I want to be with you You do pleasant things and want to be with you all the time."

"This - no, no, no -" Xie Liuchen shook his head violently, pushed him away heavily, and looked at him in disbelief: "Did I hear it wrong? Or are you kidding me?"

Shang Lixing said disappointedly: "I knew you wouldn't accept it easily."

Xie Liuchen frowned and looked at him warily: "What do you mean? What do you want from me?"

Shang Lixing said aggrievedly: "I want to get a lot from you."

Xie Liuchen's mind was completely confused, and he couldn't understand where Shang Lixing's bold and direct expression came from.After thinking about it, I couldn't help but ask, "Do you think I'm easy to deceive?"

Shang Lixing kept stroking his temples and earlobes with one hand, and sighed, "If I wanted to lie to you, why would I go to so much trouble?"

Xie Liuchen was furious: "You really mean that I am easy to deceive!"

The beautiful atmosphere was completely destroyed by this incomprehensible sentence.Shang Lixing laughed dumbfounded, and said helplessly: "Yes, yes, you'd better be lied to, you will believe everything others say."

Xie Liuchen snorted.

Shang Lixing stared at him obsessively, couldn't help getting closer, his voice stuck in his nostrils: "You are so stupid, I'm afraid that you will be abducted."

Xie Liuchen turned his head and snorted again in a very low voice.

Seeing that he never responded positively, although Shang Lixing knew that he could not rush forward, he had had enough of worrying about gains and losses during this period of time, and he could not help urging him in the end, "How? Your answer?"

Xie Liuchen tightly grasped the Xiuming Sword in his hand, the joy he had just now dissipated, and he felt that the sword he had obtained for no reason was extremely heavy.It's not that he is ignorant of the theory of broken sleeves, and he has also heard that some powerful monks from big sects like to raise pets, and their behavior can be called a full-fledged vagabond!He didn't expect Shang Lixing to have this habit, and he couldn't complain that he would jump out of the Youtong hole that day. It turned out that he had thought about it a long time ago, and wanted to be his...

No no no!Xie Liuchen thought again, Qiu Shuimen's first priority was to deal with the demons, and he had some contact with the demons. Could it be that Shang Lixing wanted to start from here?

How to do?

How should I cope?

He suddenly hated himself for relying on others like this, and he gripped the sword even tighter.

The time for half a stick of incense was about to pass, seeing that Xie Liuchen still didn't say a word, Shang Lixing's hanging heart gradually sank, he sighed silently, and slowly let go of Xie Liuchen.When he was about to give up, Xie Liuchen finally replied in a low voice: "...This is too unexpected, I'm not ready yet."

The burning expectation has been burned to the end, but unexpectedly it can be revived.Shang Lixing was overjoyed, and couldn't help pleading: "I will wait for you to grow up, until you are sensible. Let's try to get along for a while, shall we?"

Xie Liuchen was so confused that he couldn't understand it, and finally he could only nod his head indiscriminately: "Okay..."

Shang Lixing finally showed a smile, spread his arms, and gently encircled the person, and said in an almost uncontrollable excited tone: "No rush, no rush, I'm not in a hurry! Let's take it step by step, and take a step closer to the current foundation Get along, okay? I won't make other excessive actions for the time being, and we'll talk about the future, okay? If you don't like the gossip outside, I won't tell others about our relationship for the time being, okay? "

He asked "Is it okay" three times in a row, how else could Xie Liuchen respond?His whole body was stiff, he was hugged by Shang Lixing like a log, and his heart almost jumped into his throat.Listening to Shang Lixing's words, the warm breath sprayed against his ears, he forced himself to hold back the strange feeling, and said in his heart: "Don't panic, don't panic! I must calm down and see what kind of tricks he is playing! "

Shang Lixing didn't dare to use too much force, he just hugged him lightly, let him go after a while, and said in a low voice, "Try to practice first."

Xie Liuchen knew that he was talking about repairing the bright sword in his hand, so he replied doubtfully, "...but it hasn't been sharpened yet."

Shang Lixing said: "It's okay, I want to watch you practice your sword."

Xie Liuchen was also eager to try.Taking a few steps back, the flying sword was out of its sheath, and practiced a few moves of "Canghai Sword Art" against the moonlight. I only felt that the more I practiced the sword in my hand, the smoother it became, and I completely forgot about everything outside.

Shang Lixing watched without blinking, and suddenly gasped: "The devilish energy in your body——"

Xie Liuchen also saw that with the igniting of the sword intent, a burst of black energy suddenly gushed out of his heart and flowed towards the sword.Surprised: "Ah, it's the Demon Blood Book I cultivated!"

That devilish energy seemed to have self-consciousness, and was forced to flow out from Xie Liuchen's body. Although it kept wandering and running, it was firmly locked by the light of the Xiuming sword, unable to move.

Shang Lixing watched intently, and ordered: "Practice a few more tricks."

Xie Liuchen nodded in agreement, and moved frequently, using the sword moves contained in "Canghai Sword Art" one by one, the devilish energy gathered in the air and flowed more powerfully.Xie Liuchen made a decisive decision and slashed at the stagnant demonic energy. The demonic energy had no way to escape, but was wiped out by the sword light.

He put his sword back into its sheath, feeling empty in his heart.Listening to Shang Lixing said: "It turns out that Yuetian Stone not only stabilizes the sword soul, but also has the effect of dispelling demonic energy..." After thinking for a while, he said: "That's right, jade stones have spirits, and they prefer pure and flawless Dao bodies. Eliminate all adverse effects for the master."

Xie Liuchen was confused: "What's going on?"

"You may not know." Shang Lixing breathed a sigh of relief, and said slowly: "At that time, I sent you to Qiushuimen, asked Bai Xuan to treat you, and found that the devil energy in your body was too weak, it was not born with it , but it came from practicing magic skills in the later stage."

Xie Liuchen stared blankly at the place where the wisp of devilish energy disappeared, and was dumbfounded: "You mean..."

Shang Lixing said decisively: "So you are not from the Demon Race at all."

Xie Liuchen was stunned.

Shang Lixing said again: "It will be fine in the future, the demon energy will dissipate, and you will no longer be mistaken for a member of the demon clan." Seeing Xie Liuchen dazed in a daze, he called out: "Junior Brother Xie..."

It was only then that Xie Liuchen came back to his senses: "So, I've been being used all the time." He muttered a few words to himself, and suddenly shouted at Shang Lixing: "Then what have I suffered before?"

Shang Lixing couldn't see his sad look the most, so he hurriedly comforted him softly: "We will go to Yunshan Sword Sect tomorrow, and ask the head to give you justice, okay?"

Xie Liuchen roared: "But that Elder Yun Xiang is indeed dead!"

Shang Lixing hugged him and kept patting his back: "I can prove it for you, you were with me that night."

Xie Liuchen was hugged by him, and his voice came muffled: "How can I prove it? I did go out that night, and I did meet the devil. This is a fact."

Shang Lixing was speechless.

After a while Xie Liuchen recovered his emotions, gently pushed him away, lowered his head and said, "I'm tired."

"Okay, let's go back first." Shang Lixing said helplessly.For fear that he would be cold, she straightened his clothes and held his hands tightly.Seeing that Xie Liuchen was still depressed, he let go of his hand again, stretched out one arm, locked him in his arms, and led him down the mountain.

Xie Liuchen was hugged by him, twisting and twisting, "You, don't hug me so tightly..."

Shang Lixing hugged him even tighter: "Good boy, you will get used to it in the future."

Xie Liuchen was full of sorrow, holding the sword, and walked back to the courtyard with Shangli.

Standing in front of the door, seeing him still holding the Xiuming sword blankly, Shang Lixing joked: "Don't put the sword on the bed, it will make you panic."

Xie Liuchen replied: "I know."

Shang Lixing watched him walk into the room: "Then see you tomorrow?"

"Well, see you tomorrow." Xie Liuchen nodded, and closed the door in a daze, completely ignoring the disappointed expression of Shang Lixing outside the door.

Xie Liuchen slept very restlessly tonight.After lying down for a long time, he still turned over, turned on the oil lamp, sat under the lamp, turned the sword over and over, looked at it carefully, and couldn't put it down.There was also some movement next door, as if wandering around in the room.Can't help shouting: "What are you doing?"

There was a sudden silence over there, and after a while, Shang Lixing's deep voice came: "It's nothing... I can't sleep..." Then there was no more movement.

Xie Liuchen thought: "This man is really incomprehensible!" When he was tired of looking at the sword, he lightly placed it on the table, returned to the bed in a few steps, buried his head in the quilt, his mind was full of thoughts, and he simply meditated Practice up.

This meditation directly meditated until dawn.As soon as the sun was shining, Shang Lixing knocked on the door again.

He opened the door and saw Shang Lixing standing tall and straight outside the door, said: "Last night——"

Xie Liuchen asked back, "Last night?"

Shang Lixing asked: "Do you still remember what happened last night?"

Xie Liuchen was puzzled and asked: "What happened last night?" He thought: "There were a lot of things happened last night, which one do you ask?"

Shang Lixing was at a loss and asked, "So nothing happened last night?"

Xie Liuchen frowned, turned back and walked into the room, and brought out the Xiuming sword: "If you think that nothing happened to the origin of this sword, and it makes me lose a kindness that needs to be repaid, I will be happy to forget it."

Shang Lixing suddenly woke up from his dream: "That's good, so it's not me who was dreaming..."

Xie Liuchen heard that he seemed to mean something, and finally understood, he couldn't believe it: "You, you walked around last night thinking about this?"

Shang Lixing was not at ease: "For the first time in 300 years...Naturally..." I didn't know what to say, and felt that my mentality was ridiculous, so I smiled inexplicably: "I still have something to deal with. Come back to accompany you." After saying that, he lightly touched Xie Liuchen's face, and quickly walked out of the yard.

Xie Liuchen was taken aback by his inexplicable behavior, and murmured: "Didn't you agree to be with him? As for making such a fuss?"
