hold this little monk

The oil lamps in the Ziling Hall were lit all night, and the old man with white hair leaned on a cane and led his servants, looking at the stack of portraits that his students had arranged in the main hall, his expression became more and more serious.

The servant serving him had never seen him so serious before, and said submissively: "Master Shi, it's getting late, you should rest."

Shi Yang shook his head, his eyes were full of worry: "I asked you to go out of the palace to find the young master, what did he say?"

The servant said: "The young master said that he didn't see Mrs. Xiaoxuan at the princess mansion, but today the family soldiers of the eldest princess mansion gathered three times for no reason, and it seems that something unexpected happened."

"What about Zhang Xuchuan? What hook up with the princess?"

"The young master said that Zhang Xuchuan has been very close to the princess party members in recent days, and it seems that he has already taken refuge in the princess."

"I knew it, that old fox finally couldn't hold his breath anymore," Shi Yang sighed, and knocked on the ground with his cane in disbelief, making an unpleasant noise, "You, you should find a way to get out of the palace now, and tell Xu'er 'if If there is any movement in the princess mansion tonight, he must go and guard this person.'”

The servant took the portrait handed over by Shi Yang, and saw that the handsome young man in the portrait was Mr. Xiaoxuan whom he often saw. Before he knew what trouble Xiaoxuan had encountered, he heard Shi Yang say again.

"Although I don't know what the princess is planning, but Xiaoxuan... he is just a court painter, how can he afford the attention of the princess's three-episode family soldiers?" Shi Yang blew his beard and narrowed his eyes. What kind of person do you dare not provoke? Then you pass a message to the young master, 'If Xiaoxuan has someone with him, take that person along with him.'"

Seeing that he was burning with anxiety, the servant quickly responded, and said, "Are you going back, my lord? I'll take you back first, in time."

"Hey, walk around." Shi Yang waved impatiently.

Before it's too late, this day is obviously about to change.When necessary, maybe the portrait that Xiaoxuan worked so hard to organize could save his life in front of the empress. I only hope that the cold-blooded nine-five-year-old will be able to miss his old love.

Shi Yang leaned back in annoyance, he treated Yu Xiaoxuan like his own son, but no son is so noisy, his old bones will be ruined.

"Stinky boy, if you are still alive, why don't you go back to the palace early. Now that you are outside, you will be captured by the bandit leader and become Mrs. Yazhai, and the old man can't save you!" Shi Yang said bitterly.

At the same time, Mrs. Yazhai Yu Xiaoxuan sat on Bi Kong's chair in her free time, and greeted Bi Kong who was already frozen and motionless with a smile: "I just saw that there are a lot of people at the front door of your room, so go around to the back." You come in through the window, don't you mind?"

"Why are you here?" Bi Kong avoided his gaze, walked over and asked in a low voice.

"You were interrupted before you finished speaking in the afternoon. I'm here to listen to you."

Bikong smiled suddenly, looked at him sideways, his eyes flickered, and his voice was soft as if he was trying to seduce something: "Don't you already know what I want to say?"

Xiaoxuan couldn't stand him looking at him like this, lowered his eyes and pretended to look at the copybook and said: "I'm not that smart, otherwise I wouldn't have realized it today."

He intended to divert his attention by looking at the copybook, but he didn't expect that the rice paper was densely covered with his name, and the strokes were thick and colorful, which made people look at it at a glance, as if they saw the painstaking efforts of the writer in every stroke.

This made Xiaoxuan even more restless, and could hardly keep smiling.

Also fidgeting was Bi Kong, why didn't he know what was on his desk.The thing that had been hiding all this time was suddenly brought into the sun by someone. If someone changed randomly, he might not be as calm as him, but his face turned pale again and again.

"Anyway, he already knows, why should I be afraid." Bi Kong almost gave up on himself and thought, relieved.

He got up and packed the rice papers on the table, folded them one by one, opened the cover of the oil lamp, and burned the papers one by one in front of Xiao Xuan.

Xiaoxuan was taken aback, and blurted out: "Actually, you don't have to..."

"I'll burn every one of them," Bi Kong said with a smile on his face, as if he really didn't care, "I didn't pretend to burn them for you to see, but I just piled them up and I have no place to put them."

Xiaoxuan: "..."

This is even more worrying.

The rice paper curled up and burned, until finally each piece was annihilated by the raging fire, the small flames reflected in Xiaoxuan's black eyes, it seemed that something in his heart stirred up his emotions, which made him unable to calm down, and even his soul trembled.

"It's not that I don't like you," Xiaoxuan smiled suddenly, "It's that I have never liked anyone at all. I have never had the feeling of being emotionally affected by someone's every move. Don't feel that you The difference from others is that the monster is a scourge, and the person who is really a monster, might as well be me."

Bi Kong disapproved of him talking about himself like this, and frowned fiercely.

He stared at Bi Kong closely, and said seriously: "I won't dislike you just because you like... like men, but it would be great if you told me earlier. I don't know why you like such a careless person like me Point, at least I think, if there is someone exactly like me, I don't want to live with him for the rest of my life."

Bi Kong quietly listened to him before saying: "Why?"

Xiaoxuan breathed a sigh of relief, and said casually: "Oh, I have a secret, I might as well tell you today. In fact, I... have been trapped by a nightmare every night. In that dream, I went to another In the world, different from here, the people there are very bold and open, women will show their thighs when the weather is hot, and the people there are more treacherous and smart. It is a pity that I have nothing in that world. I have been an orphan since I was a child. I grew up ignorantly, bumped into too many walls, and was maliciously speculated by too many people about things I had never done. There, I would fail in everything I did. This dream is so real, so real Like another life of mine."

He has never said this in front of others. These are secrets that he has kept in his stomach since his previous life. He suddenly said them at this moment, which made him feel as if he had been in a lifetime.Those things that were maliciously speculated and vilified by jealousy in the past suddenly happened, and he closed his eyes. No matter how many years passed by these things, he would deeply feel the undiminished despair again.

It was a bottomless pit, he was at the bottom of the cave, and there was only a small dot of light left. No matter how hard he climbed, he would never reach the end in his life. The light dot seemed to be so far away forever, so unreachable.

"But those were just dreams."

Suddenly, Bi Kong's voice was close to his ears, Xiaoxuan opened his eyes, looked at Bi Kong who was silently approaching because he was worried about him, suppressed the feelings in his heart, forced a smile, and said: "Yes, it's all Dreams, but they are too real, they have really affected me since I was a child, understand? An orphan who has experienced everything in order to survive will not be a good-natured person. First of all, he will not have much love for the world. trust."

Bi Kong looked at him and shook his head: "I don't understand."

Xiaoxuan felt that this person was no longer able to communicate: "How can you be so stubborn...Let me tell you this, I am not a suitable lover, either I am big-hearted or suspicious, and I will torture you to death sooner or later."

Bi Kong thought for a moment and said, "That's pretty good."

Xiaoxuan: "..."

Do you shake M?

Bi Kong maintained a smile on his face, seeing his serious appearance, but his heart was distressed by the words he just said, he didn't dare to think, if everything in the dream was so real, wouldn't his brother live again in the dream? A very different miserable life, and he can't enter his dream to protect him.

Bi Kong: "Is this kind of dream a strange disease? Can it be cured?"

Xiaoxuan didn't want him to focus on this, and said bluntly: "No, but it doesn't matter, I can feel that I in that dream is dying, and everything may be over."

These are all things that really happened in his previous life. If he really wanted to change, wouldn't he have to travel back?He is almost 20 years old now, and he died at the age of 20 before time travelling, so it is true that another life has passed.

Bi Kong raised his eyebrows, as if he felt that it was incomprehensible that this kind of thing could be understood by feeling, and he almost suspected that these words were all made up by his brother to persuade him.

Suddenly, he lowered his head and looked seriously at the eyes that were avoiding his gaze, and said with a half-smile: "Then how about you dream about me? At any rate, you won't be alone in your dreams."

Xiao Xuan raised his forehead and said, "No matter how nasty you are, I will beat you up."

Bi Kong laughed, leaning on the table and said: "I just thought that in the past, when I was alone, there was one you who broke in suddenly and recklessly, giving me hope in my life, and it would be easier."

"..." Xiaoxuan didn't know why the topic changed back, helplessly, "Am I the first one?"

Bi Kong nodded, pretending to be relaxed and said: "Yes."

"sorry."

"I can't blame you, it's my wishful thinking, and I'm also willing." Bi Kong felt that the two of them were probably crazy, and they were able to bring these things to the surface and open up a little bit.After a moment of silence, Bi Kong seemed to have thought of something, hesitantly said, "You can..."

"Ok?"

"...No, forget it." Bi Kong stood up partially and shook his head.

Xiaoxuan: "I didn't see you being ashamed when you said that kind of thing just now, what are you being ashamed of now?"

"I..." Bi Kong's face and ears were covered with a layer of pink, and he hesitated for a long time without holding back a word.Suddenly there was a sound of hurried footsteps, and Bi Kong's expression changed.

The visitor slammed on the door, and the expressions of the two changed. They listened carefully, and vaguely heard some noisy people's footsteps and shoving outside.Bi Kong ignored Xiaoxuan and went to unlock the door.

The person who came was the great monk who was always by Wu Chao's side. There were bean-sized sweat on his forehead, and he almost stomped his feet in a hurry. Bi Kong opened the door a little, walked out and closed the door again, leaving Xiaoxuan behind. in it.

Xiaoxuan's face darkened, and he pushed the window to look out, and saw that the torches gathered outside the Dakai Temple, creating a continuous fire dragon. The fire dragon circled the Dakai Temple, as if to warn the ghosts and monsters outside, and the deep night was lit by the torches Bright, so bright that people panic.He listened with all his heart, and he could still hear the faint sound of chanting Buddha and chanting sutras. Some people thought it was Dakai Temple's large-scale warding off of evil spirits.

Indeed, it can be regarded as avoiding evil.

Outside the vermilion deep wall of Dakai Temple, more than 1000 family soldiers held cold irons and looked solemn, standing still even if the cold wind swayed, as if they were born as killing machines that slaughtered human flesh and blood.The culprit was standing outside the main gate of Dakai Temple. She leaned against the fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy beside her, and she did not forget to sip her rouge and put on her red makeup. The redness in the dark night chilled people's hearts.

As Shi Yang said, the sky has changed.

The author has something to say:

Trade one secret for another.

Bi Kong's secret is his heart, while Xiao Xuan's secret is his past life.So for Xiaoxuan, it's almost like exchanging one secret for another.
