Chapter 77 Master and Apprentice 23
Chapter 77 Master and Apprentice 23
Xie Chuan had imagined countless times that the two would meet again, but he never thought that they would meet in this way.
Ji Zixiu didn't realize it yet, but tried his best to restrain his overly presumptuous eyes.
He never knew that his longing would be so long and long, twisted into a ball of thread, wrapped in his heart in a complicated way.
Ji Zixiu looked Xie Chuan up and down. He seemed to have suffered a lot during the three months outside.There was a blue stubble on his chin, and the hem of his clothes was rotten into strips of cloth. When Ji Zixiu got closer, he could even smell a faint smell of blood on his body.
This kind of Xie Chuan has more magical power than before, he is a little thinner, but still looks handsome.
Ji Zixiu pursed his lips: "You are an abandoned disciple of Yunxianzong, why are you here?"
"Abandon...?" Xie Chuan's heart that was still excited just now cooled down, "It was that person who abandoned it. To him, I am just a person who can be abandoned at any time like an old clog."
Ji Zixiu's face turned pale, and as soon as Xie Chuan's words fell, he was even more shaken.
Xie Chuan looked at him: "Do you want to continue talking?"
His expression was very condensed, but those night-like eyes were staring at him firmly.For a moment Ji Zixiu had the thought of being seen through, but in the next second, he laughed at his suspicion.
With his spell, non-Yuanying can't recognize his true face, Xie Chuan... probably doesn't know.
"I just ask you, why are you here?"
"Of course I came in with Senior Sister Su Qing."
Ji Zixiu turned his attention to Su Qing: "Why are you alone? What happened?"
Su Qing glanced at Ji Zixiu in surprise, then at Xie Chuan, and found that Xie Chuan hadn't gone mad like before, and felt puzzled: "We don't know why, but we were suddenly attacked by centipedes. Now in the team... I'm the only one left."
This place is indeed horrible, and the blood almost stains those lands red.
Ji Zixiu frowned: "If Ning Baodi hasn't been born in 1000 years, it's hard to say what kind of mutant monsters there are. I'll go with you."
Su Qing asked suspiciously: "You?"
Ji Zixiu coughed, but his ears turned red.
Why did he subconsciously pull Xie Chuan in, how good it is to drive him away here!snort!
Although Xie Chuan didn't see this scene, he wisely seized the opportunity: "Senior sister, this third-tier monster in Ningbao is so powerful, I think we have a better chance of winning if we go together."
Su Qing almost couldn't recognize Xie Chuan anymore, why was she completely changed from just now.
She was full of doubts, and silently retracted her suspicious eyes.
The three formed a temporary team. Su Qing's Feather Spirit Beast was injured on the back. The little guy has a high fever and looks very weak.Su Qing's heart ached, she had already given it elixir but it didn't work, Ji Zixiu threw a elixir at her: "Try this."
Su Qing got the jade bottle: "This is...?"
"It's specially used to supplement the aura of monsters." This is indeed a problem with Ning Baodi, and even the injured Yuling beasts lose a lot of aura.
On the contrary, the weaker the person, the easier it is to be sucked away.
"Thank you." Su Qing didn't refuse, and quickly ate one for the feather spirit beast.
Ji Zixiu's medicine really worked, and it didn't take long for the feather spirit beast to feel much better.
Xie Chuan lit a fire and sprinkled animal repelling powder nearby.Several people sat around the fire, and the light from the fire shone on Xie Chuan's face, softening his aura a lot.
Su Qing was finally able to separate her mind, so she asked Xie Chuan, "What did you do in Nanying's secret place?"
Ji Zixiu blushed and coughed violently.
Xie Chuan thought that Ji Zixiu still hated him in his heart, so he didn't explain it to Su Qing. Besides, he just wanted to keep this kind of thing in his memory for the rest of his life.
"No matter what I do, I will never regret it in my life." Xie Chuan evoked a smile.
Ji Zixiu also noticed Xie Chuan's smile, and he found that since he came to this world, Xie Chuan's emotions have become more.
Unlike the usual face with a paralyzed face, he became more and more like a person.
Although Xie Chuan said so, Su Qing couldn't figure it out: "Uncle Feng Wei said that you betrayed the master, and you have no repentance for doing such a thing??"
"You said... Uncle Fengwei said it?" Xie Chuan frowned slightly.
Su Qing thought that Xie Chuan knew about this a long time ago, but he didn't expect him to act as if he didn't know anything: "Master came back from the secret place of Nanying and passed out for several days... Could it be that Master is still in a dream? Scolding you? Of course it was Master Feng Wei who said it."
In other words, it's not the master who issued the killing order?
Xie Chuan's heart relaxed slightly, and then overflowed with joy from his heart.
Master didn't want to kill him.
It's just that Su Qing's words caught Xie Chuan's attention after all: "You said that Master has been in a coma for several days after returning from Nanying Secret Land...?"
Su Qing seemed to want to say something, but Ji Zixiu immediately stopped her: "Su Qing, don't say anything."
Several people gathered in front of the fire, giving Su Qing the same illusion as when she was a child, and she realized that she regarded Xie Chuan as her junior again.
Although he is not an enemy, he is definitely not a friend.
Su Qing withdrew her mouth and became silent.
Xie Chuan raised a smile.
Ji Zixiu asked, "What are you laughing at?"
Xie Chuan's eyes were full of affection: "The killing order was not issued by Master, so I am naturally happy."
"What kill order?"
"What kill order?"
Su Qing and Ji Zixiu asked almost at the same time.
From their reactions, Xie Chuan thought through what the old ghost told him smoothly, and gradually developed great doubts.
There was a hint of joy in Xie Chuan's eyes, and he smiled softly: "It seems... I was deceived."
He was still like a demon cultivator when he killed the centipede, but now he laughed again.
Su Qing shook her head, feeling that seeing Xie Chuan again this time was completely beyond her imagination.
As the night slowly deepened, Su Qing over there began to close her eyes and rest her mind. The series of events today did not give people a chance to breathe. She was indeed very tired.
Seeing this, Xie Chuan slowly touched Ji Zixiu.
Ji Zixiu wasn't asleep at all, he was just pretending to be asleep, besides, who can sleep at this hour?
Unexpectedly, Xie Chuan was so frantic that he put his hand into his clothes, and whispered in her ear like a pervert, "I know you're not asleep."
Ji Zixiu opened his eyes, with a look of being humiliated: "You! Presumptuous!"
Xie Chuan narrowed his eyes: "I was expelled from the sect for doing this kind of thing to my master, so why should I be presumptuous or not?"
Ji Zixiu's face turned blue and red: "What does it have to do with me that you do this kind of thing to your master, why are you pestering me!"
"Hush...you don't want Senior Sister Su Qing to know?"
Xie Chuan lowered his hand, causing Ji Zixiu to snort.
He didn't know what was wrong with his mood at the moment, it was like the jar of vinegar was overturned, full of it.
He was extremely upset in his heart, and pushed Xie Chuan away: "If you take another step, I won't be polite."
Xie Chuan licked his finger towards the tip of his tongue, so angry that his blood surged up.
"You are like a person."
"..."
Like a person can't do that either!
Ji Zixiu suddenly found that Xie Chuan was angry with him today, and he finally tasted the bad results, which can be regarded as repayment.
Xie Chuan chuckled, obviously hinting clearly, but the other party still didn't understand.
"Not just the degree of resemblance."
"...What do you want to say?" Ji Zixiu didn't believe that he could break through this spell, it was absolutely impossible!
Since Master wanted to pretend to be him, Xie Chuan had no choice.Excitement flashed in his heart, so... he can't be blamed.
Xie Chuan was quiet all night, and the three of them set off early in the morning.
But Ji Zixiu clearly found that Xie Chuan had changed. If he was still a little respectful before, now his nature was completely exposed.Occasionally touching Ji Zixiu where Su Qing couldn't see, when Ji Zixiu turned his head, he smiled and said, "Your hair is covered with leaves."
Leaves?
What a liar!
Can he touch the leaves seven or eight times along the way?Ji Zixiu felt that Su Qing was there after all, so he couldn't quarrel with Xie Chuan.Unexpectedly, his own reticence would become connivance at Xie Chuan's place.
At this moment, he whispered into Ji Zixiu's ear maliciously, "You're pampering me so much?"
Ji Zixiu subconsciously took out the talisman paper and pointed it at Xie Chuan.It's just that his face was completely stained with a thin red, and his appearance was more or less a little bit annoyed by someone poking his mind.
Ji Zixiu's strong reaction made Su Qing turn around: "What's wrong?"
Ji Zixiu was at a loss for words, he couldn't say that Xie Chuan was flirting with him!
"It's okay." Ji Zixiu ate Coptis chinensis dumbly.
Su Qing blinked suspiciously.
"The center of Runing Treasure is ahead, and it shouldn't be long."
Ji Zixiu focused on the business, looked into the distance, and said to Su Qing, "It looks like I'll be there tomorrow."
Su Qing nodded, feeling a little disappointed: "Finding the secret of Runing Treasure Land earlier can be regarded as a comfort to those disciples of the Yunxian Sect who died."
Among Ji Zixiu's three apprentices, only Su Qing was raised as an apprentice sincerely. Seeing that she thought so, Ji Zixiu was also pleased: "Su Qing, you will definitely be able to shoulder the responsibility of Yunxianzong from now on."
Su Qing smiled at him: "Master often says this, I don't want to disappoint his expectations."
Ji Zixiu's gaze became softer: "Why, you have always been his complacent disciple."
Su Qing was slightly taken aback, and finally felt a sense of disobedience.
And Xie Chuan over there saw this picture of master-student harmony, and instantly snorted coldly: "Yes, Master loves you the most."
These words were so sour that Su Qing became more and more confused: "Since you like Master so much, why did you betray Master?" The liking she said was completely different from Xie Chuan's.
Ji Zixiu's heart jumped in his throat, he was afraid that if they continued to talk like this, his good reputation for many years would be lost!
"It's getting late, let's go early tomorrow morning."
Su Qing put her attention on this. I don't know what's ahead. Although Xie Chuan and the senior brother leading the team are powerful, after all, this Ningbao land has not been born for a thousand years.
Life and death ahead are uncertain, and Su Qing's heart is also a little heavy.
At night the moon hangs brightly in the sky, maybe with Ji Zixiu in the team, those monsters dare not come to offend.During the two days they left, they hardly encountered any monsters again.
It's just that Xie Chuan has been too presumptuous these two days, without any respect at all.
It made him...don't even know how to treat him!
Ruan Tianlang didn't say anything, which means he still has to continue to treat Yan Xi well.Although Yan Xi kept saying that he didn't want anyone except Ruan Tianlang, but he couldn't get these two together!
Ji Zixiu earnestly persuaded: [Didn't you not hear what your junior brother said when you set off?He said he only wanted you, and he didn't want to accept other people's kindness. ]
Ruan Tianlang: […]
Ji Zixiu felt that when he came to this world, he was already worried like Ruan Tianlang's father: [You are talking! ]
Ruan Tianlang's tone was finally forced into impatience: [Why are you so wordy. ]
Ji Zixiu: […]
Ouch, he seems to be swearing, who is it for so hard!
Ji Zixiu curled up listlessly, his face full of depression.
At this time, Xie Chuan shamelessly came over again: "This is Anshenlu, I still have the last bottle with me, give it to you."
"Why don't you drink it yourself?"
"I'm a little worried about you."
Ji Zixiu looked at him like he looked at Grandma Wolf, and felt that Xie Chuan had malicious intentions.It took a long time before he took over the jade bottle he packed.
Unexpectedly, Xie Chuan really had malicious intentions. When he took the bottle, Xie Chuan took the initiative to rub his palm. When Ji Zixiu took the bottle, he blushed and his heart beat.
This must not be his Xie Chuan, this is the perverted old Lu!
Ji Zixiu coughed, and deliberately changed the topic: "Although it is very quiet tonight, there must be a fierce battle to be fought tomorrow. You should go there early and rest."
Xie Chuan's routine has become much more flexible. After the hard one just came once, it's time to change to the soft one this time.
"Do you hate me?"
"...I hate it." There was a little hesitation in those words.
Xie Chuan narrowed his eyes and smiled: "I see."
Wait, what do you understand!
Ji Zixiu widened his eyes, looked at Xie Chuan's leaving figure, and wanted to catch him back and ask him clearly.
Did Xie Chuan really recognize him?
Ji Zixiu covered his chest, feeling very comfortable.
Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night, and the night was getting darker and darker. They didn't meet a few disciples of the Great Immortal Sect along the way, which showed that either no one took this road, or... most of them died.
The closer it was to the middle of Runing Treasure Land, the deeper the strange feeling became.
Even he began to notice that his aura was draining very quickly. Xie Chuan must have noticed it because of his meticulous thoughts.As for Su Qing's solemn expression these days, she probably already knew it.
Several people knew that the quietness tonight was nothing but the calm before the storm.
In the middle of the night, the night is at its darkest.
Ji Zixiu suddenly felt the ice flakes falling into his clothes. He opened his eyes and saw demons dancing in the sky, and those monsters rushed over one after another.And Xie Chuan held the ice sword in his hand, wiped the corner of his bloody mouth with his sleeve, his eyes were full of madness.
"You are too noisy, it will affect Master's rest."
The ice formed in his hand spread silently, and wiped out those things extremely quietly.
What's even more miraculous is that those monsters wrapped in Xie Chuan's ice will ignite a frost-colored flame, and eventually... will dissipate into ashes.
The flames are very beautiful, and these mutated monsters usually have huge bodies.
Ji Zixiu kept raising his head, as if seeing a fireworks in a prosperous age.
After Xie Chuan finished all this, his figure shook and finally fell to the ground.
He coughed twice, covering his mouth and nose as if afraid of waking him up.His palms were covered with blood, and under the cold moonlight, Ji Zixiu saw the blank expression on his face.
He was exuding a dead air all over his body.
Ji Zixiu finally understood why no monsters approached him these two days. It turned out that it was Xie Chuan who killed them all.
If it wasn't for the fine shards of ice falling down today, how long would Xie Chuan have kept it from him?
With his head down, Ji Zixiu walked up to Su Qing and cast a spell on her so that she could not hear the next conversation between him and Xie Chuan.
Ji Zixiu walked up to Xie Chuan, removed the spell on his face, and returned to his original appearance.
The sound of his footsteps successfully aroused Xie Chuan's vigilance. When he saw that it was Ji Zixiu, Xie Chuan put on a smile on his face: "You finally...are willing to see me for real."
Ji Zixiu pursed his lips and remained silent.
Under the moonlight, his figure was even colder, with a sense of alienation.
But in this way, his eyes kept looking at himself.
Xie Chuan felt an incomparable sense of satisfaction in his heart.
Ji Zixiu walked up to him, without saying a word, grabbed Xie Chuan's collar, and kissed him hard.
Xie Chuan still had blood on the corner of his mouth, and his mouth was filled with the smell of blood, but Ji Zixiu's sudden movement made his eyes widen.
This time the initiative was completely under Ji Zixiu's control, and he and him were inseparable, even with a touch of despair.
After finally separating, Ji Zixiu's eyes were foggy, and he said in a hoarse voice, "How long are you going to torment yourself?"
Is he...feeling for him?
This kind of scene made Xie Chuan's mind a little overwhelmed. Didn't Master give all the emotions to Yan Xi?
As a result, Xie Chuan laughed dryly twice: "This must be my dream again."
Ji Zixiu is also human and has limits.
Ji Zixiu felt happier when others praised Xie Chuan than when they praised him.
In the same way, if he hurt Xie Chuan himself, or saw others hurt Xie Chuan, Ji Zixiu would feel distressed.
If Ruan Tianlang doesn't want to enter, he will be stubborn for a while.
Ji Zixiu smiled and said, "If you don't believe me, I can kiss you again."
Xie Chuan: "I don't believe it."
This speed...it's a little too fast to answer.
Ji Zixiu laughed dumbfounded, but the next moment Xie Chuan stood up and kissed him.
Ji Zixiu was taken aback for a moment, then closed his eyes.
Such a Xie Chuan, how could he do that to someone other than him, he remembered that he was jealous, and felt that his IQ was fed to the dog.
The delicate kiss gave him a feeling that he was loved.
When Xie Chuan kissed enough, he whispered in his ear: "Now, I believe it."
Ji Zixiu asked, "What happened to your body?"
Xie Chuan avoided talking about this topic: "Master, did you let me go last time, were you reluctant to kill me?"
Ji Zixiu looked at him helplessly: "You haven't answered my question yet."
Xie Chuan saw that his attitude had softened, so he probed further: "Then Master asks one, and I ask one, okay?"
This was so weird, Ji Zixiu thought it was fraudulent.
Xie Chuan added another sentence: "As long as Master asks, I will tell the truth. But if I ask Master, Master can choose not to tell the truth."
Even if you agree to him: "Okay."
Ji Zixiu asked him, "When did you discover my identity?"
"First look."
No wonder!
Ji Zixiu glared at him because of Xie Chuan's harassment and flirting these days!
"Does Master really want to kill me?"
This question was asked like some lingering love words, Ji Zixiu was momentarily at a loss for words.
Seeing that he was unwilling to answer, Xie Chuan's eyes darkened for a moment: "Since Master is unwilling to answer... then forget it."
... just know how to pretend to be pitiful!
Ji Zixiu said in a muffled voice, "No."
Xie Chuan tried his best to cover up his triumphant smile: "Master, it's your turn to ask."
"What happened to your injury?"
"Ice seed fire."
Ji Zixiu glanced at him in surprise. Ice seed fire is one of the seven strange fires. Xie Chuan is a pure ice spirit root. Although this kind of fire belongs to ice fire, Xie Chuan is risking burning his internal organs. Danger.
What's more... he was burning his own life.
"Nonsense! You are a pure ice spirit root, how can you use ice to plant fire!"
Xie Chuan had a weak face: "I answered you just now, it's time for me to ask."
Ji Zixiu frowned.
Xie Chuan put his hand on his head, and rubbed it lightly: "Before, I had always harbored resentment, but walking with you these two days, I remembered many things."
Ji Zixiu's heart skipped a beat: "What?"
"It's vague, I can't tell. It's just..." Xie Chuan's eyes softened, "I love you, how many years have passed, and I still remember it fresh."
I don't know how many years have passed, how long has passed.
Maybe it contains previous lives, or it contains several worlds.
Even the soul is stained with traces of the other party.
These words not only ironed Ji Zixiu's heart, but also seemed to iron his soul, as if he wanted to burn everything.
At the end, Xie Chuan asked with a smile: "Xie Chuan has a rough life in this life. Greed, anger, ignorance and hatred are the only ones that can't let you go. Master, are you willing to let go of my mortal heart in this life?"
