Envy

Meng Tou and Mu Mi's disciples killed all the wild spirits in the city on the second day.There is still light in the eyes of the younger generation.They have no fear of encountering wild spirits.There really aren't that many wild spirits in the city, it's just a few blue things walking on Changye Street, after all, it's a bit scary.

Eternal Night City had been defeated for a long time, and when he saw the warm orange lights at night, his heart was touched.

No matter what the ruin of this deserted city is, as long as there are still such lights, one day it will break through the cage, revive at night, and howl with the cold wind.

Meng Xi was with him, and they saw a marriage tree on the bank of the river on the way back to the city lord's mansion.For a long time, the embroidered sachets hanging from the branches were washed white and shriveled by the rain.

The little girl took the embroidered bag on her body, made a devout wish, and muttered words.Meng Tou heard her last words clearly: "... I hope that the third brother and Shaojun will get together soon, and they will never leave each other in this life."

Meng Xi wanted to pull Meng Tou to make a wish together, but Meng Tou couldn't be interested, saying that he didn't believe it.Meng Xi said he was boring.

They walked all the way, Meng Xi tiptoed, dancing lightly among the bluestone slabs.Meng Tou said: "It's been a while since you've been out, so parents should worry if you don't come home. There's still something important to do at the door, and Huo Zhi and I need to go back and take over. We'll be back in a few days, and I'll let Xue Ye Take you back to Lizhou."

"Who said, with you here, father and mother can rest assured."

Meng Tou tapped her forehead with his fingers: "You should go back, you are here, I have to take care of you."

Meng Xi was not happy, seeing her brother walking forward regardless of her, she trotted forward, holding his arm: "Brother, why don't you let me play with you for a few more days, I'm so bored when I get home."

She shook Meng Tou's arm.

Meng Tou pretended to be serious: "Come on, I don't like this. You said the same thing when you begged me to come to Eternal Night City. How can you be a girl who always follows us?"

"Okay." Meng Xi said helplessly, "Brother, you are really getting more and more rigid. You used to not say such things. When I was young, you took me to throw mud on the neighbor's children."

Meng Tou stroked his chin and looked at her with a smile: "...is there such a thing?"

"Don't be foolish. The neighbor's kid bullied me. After you heard about it, you dragged me to find the other kid to settle the score... Later, when the mother came to the door, you were beaten up by daddy and locked up for several days. At that time, I thought, my third brother is the most righteous, and my third brother treats me best."

Meng Tou thought about it, and it seemed that there was such a thing.He said: "You don't know, the elder sister of the neighbor's child is very beautiful, her eyes are full of water, and her voice is sweet... Tsk... So I pulled you over at that time, in fact, to show off in front of her .”

Meng Xi opened her almond eyes and put her hands on her hips: "So you didn't want to avenge your sister at that time, did you?"

Meng Tou said innocently: "You can't say that. By the way, I avenged my sister... Let me tell you, I really regretted it later. I didn't expect her to grow up like that. The older she grows, the more... ...Forget it, it’s sad.”

Meng Xi was angry.

Her brother smiled and walked forward with his sword in hand.She chased after her and said, "Hmph, I'm going to tell Shaojun all about your crap."

Her brother didn't look back, his footsteps faltered, and he said indifferently: "Let's talk about it when you can see him."

Meng Xi thought she had said something wrong, sweated a little, and then heard Meng Tou say leisurely: "I have the final say on this matter, you should go back to Lizhou immediately."

"Hmph, big brother, big devil!"

……

It was late at night when Meng Tou returned to the City Lord's Mansion, he was extremely sleepy, and fell asleep next to the bed after washing.It was cold at night and the quilt was thin, his hands were still cold after lying down for a long time, and he fell asleep dazedly later.

The thin window paper in the bedroom was pierced, and a thin bamboo tube stretched into the room, causing the white fog to disperse.The people outside the door waited for a long time without any movement, then pushed the door open, turned around and closed the door again.

Fei Yu walked to the side of the bed, rummaged through Meng Tou's neatly arranged clothes, and saw the jade Yanxia Ling.

Meng Tou got Mu Su's Yanhuo Order at the age of 20, but he didn't get the Yanxia Order until he was 28 years old.Mu Su handed over the Yanxia Order to Meng Tou, which means that he has given power to him.Mu Su has an unwritten rule that Yanhuo and Yanxia Shuangling can order Mu Su's disciples and all sects in Huaibei.

Fei Yu didn't expect Yanxia Ling to succeed so easily, so before leaving, he took another look at Meng Tou and traced the outline of his face with his fingers.

This is the gentlest and coldest person he's ever met, he thought.

He was about to leave, but when he got up, his arms were grabbed, his eyes were spinning, and he was crushed on the bed the next moment.He met Meng Tou's eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

"Tell me, who is next to you." Meng Tou's eyes were cold.

He hadn't spoken for a long time, and his voice was a little hoarse when he opened his mouth: "Meng Tou." He regretted it as soon as he finished shouting, and he was strangled by Meng Tou.

"You can talk?"

Fei Yu lowered her eyes, not looking at him: "Since when did you start to doubt me?"

"From the first time I saw you, I knew that you were not an ordinary person. You are neither from the Yi tribe, but you are six points similar to Yan Zhaohan. There is no such coincidence in the world. I have to doubt it." Meng Tou Said, "At the dinner party last night, the city lord said something, which I have always remembered. He said that your eyes are most similar to Yan Shaojun's."

"You know. The most dissimilarity between you and him is your eyes." Meng Tou rested his fingers lightly on his browbones, looking carefully at his eyebrows.It was originally an ambiguous behavior, but Meng Tou's behavior made people tremble with fear.

"Rumors have been circulating over the years. Daoyan Shaojun is romantic and hangs around among various sects. I have never taken it to heart, but after seeing your face, I became suspicious. Yan Zhaohan lived in seclusion. A few years ago There are not many people who know his appearance. If he wants to win over various sects, why bother to sacrifice himself. Unless someone uses his name to gather rumors for them."

"I guess, you are the 'Shaojun Yan' that City Master Yongye said, and you are also the 'Shaojun Yan' that those sect masters call."

he knows.He knows everything.

Fei Yu's face paled slightly: "Since you already know, why did you keep me by your side for so long? You brought me back from Mucheng to Muyu, and allowed me to come with you to Yongye..."

"I kept you by my side because I was worried that you would send a letter to the Xiaoyang people."

Fei Yu's pupils shrank slightly, and she said in a daze, "You... how do you know?"

Meng Tou pursed his lips, pulled his forehead hair behind his ears, looked at his bewildered expression, and said, "Xiaoyang will make a decision. Except Jiang Yi from Xiaoyang, who would do such a thing."

He closed his eyes in despair: "Then you kill me."

Meng Tou took back the Yanxia Order from him: "I won't kill you. Killing innocent people indiscriminately is Jiang Yi's hobby."

Meng Tou tapped Fei Yu's acupuncture points and said, "I've offended you, please go back to Mu Su with me first."
