Envy

"Is this the case?" Meng Tou looked at Yan Zhaohan.Yan Zhaohan looked back at him silently, playing with the fine porcelain cup in his hand.Looks kind of innocent.

Meng Tou immediately turned his head and said to Xue Ye, "It must be a misunderstanding. It must be a misunderstanding."

Xue Ye was so angry that he turned his head away and ignored him: "In the end, you just don't believe me. Then you're still talking about a big-headed ghost."

Meng Tou decided to save their brotherhood, so he sat next to Xue Ye, looked at the hem of his clothes, and asked with concern, "Are you okay? Have you taken the medicine? Does the wound still hurt?"

"It's none of your business if it hurts to death."

Xue Ye gambled for a while, and before the stalemate lasted too long, he said to Meng Tou: "The old witch is not willing to let me die, so she sends someone to deliver medicine to me every day. Fortunately, I have rough skin and thick flesh, otherwise I would have passed away long ago." I’m gone. I’m really lucky that I didn’t die in Eternal Night City, some people must have been annoyed for a long time.”

Xue Ye stole a glance at Yan Zhaohan at the end.

Yan Zhaohan said nonchalantly, "That's because I missed the shot on purpose."

"what?"

"Su Chuo thinks that your life can be exchanged for Meng Xi's. You are still somewhat useful."

"You..." Xue Ye opened his eyes wide in surprise, "Is Meng Xi not injured?"

Meng Tou interjected: "Young Jun accompanied Meng Xi back to Lizhou. Meng Xi is fine, and she didn't suffer any injuries. She thought you had already returned to Mu Xi, but she didn't expect you to be imprisoned in this ghostly place called Menghua Palace. "

"Then... that's a bit of a conscience on your part." Xue Ye stiffened his mouth and said to Yan Zhaohan, "If you let Meng Xi get hurt, I will definitely not let you go."

Meng Tou approached him and watched Yan Zhaohan slam Xue Ye's head.Meng Tou said, "What do you care about with a junior?"

Xue Ye held his head in disbelief: "Junior? You mean him?"

Meng Tou pressed his head again, and looked down at him: "Zhao Han is two years younger than you, isn't he your junior?"

"Junior?" Xue Ye panicked, "What were you doing when he became Xiqie Gongjunyi at the age of 21? You didn't even get the order to extend the fire, did you? You told me he was a junior?"

Thanks to the timely knock on the door, otherwise Meng Tou really planned to cover his head hard again.

Xue Ye hid and said, "Come in!"

The door was pushed open.There were two young men with red lips and white teeth standing outside the door, one of them said: "Young Master Xue, Young Master Meng, Young Master, my master invites you all to have dinner in the hall."

They didn't notice, it was already dark.

Meng Tou walked out the door and said, "Okay, let's go."

Yan Zhaohan also stood up and walked towards the door.

Xue Ye said firmly, "I won't go!"

The two teenagers outside the door retreated to the porch to lead them the way.Meng Tou stepped out the door without turning his head and said, "Then you can keep it, let's go."

Xue Ye stretched his neck to look out the door, and shouted, "Meng Tou, are you my brother?"

Meng Tou retreated and said to him, "Brothers are like centipede siblings. Let's go, Zhaohan." After saying that, he took Yan Zhaohan's shoulders and left.

Although Xue Ye said nothing, he followed him cursingly, hooked his neck from behind, and leaned half on him.While breaking free, Meng Tou said, "Aren't you childish when you're such an adult, childish to death childish ghost."

"You're not naive, huh? Where did you get the face from?" Xue Ye was about to grab his face as he spoke.

They made a fuss and went all the way to the Hall of Yonghe. No one gave the other any face along the way, they exposed each other's secrets.Meng Touying was thick-skinned, so Xue Ye was about to vomit blood and jumped up in anger.Xue Ye said directly, "Shaojun Yan, do you care about it? Just look at how dead he is!"

Yan Zhaohan turned a deaf ear to him, and silently put some distance away from Meng Tou, and was pulled back by Meng Tou, who grabbed his shoulders.

As soon as he entered the hall and saw Patriarch Menghua who was beaming with joy, the smile on Xue Ye's face froze and then disappeared.He faltered immediately, and moved closer to Meng Tou silently.

They did not enjoy the dinner very much.Yan Zhaohan didn't speak, Xue Ye didn't dare to speak, and Meng Tou couldn't speak until the time came.So the three of them silently listened to Patriarch Menghua's chatter, occasionally answering a few times.

Patriarch Menghua asked: "Meng Tou, what do you think of my Menghua Palace?"

Meng Tou lowered his head and said "OK" a few times.

After those few "yes", Patriarch Menghua fell silent.

He felt that his words were perfunctory, and he was afraid of offending her, so he put down the ivory chopsticks in his hand and continued: "Menghua Palace is located in the universe, with beautiful mountains and rivers. The palace is carved with beams and painted buildings, flying pavilions and flowing alchemy. It is a rare and good place. "

These words finally won the favor of Patriarch Menghua.She covered her lips and said with a smile: "In that case, would you like to live here forever?" When she smiled, wrinkles appeared on her white powdered face.Meng Touzhen felt that her crescent eyebrows were not very good-looking, not her silver face.

As soon as the words came out, Xue Ye choked, hit his chest with his fist, poured himself a cup of tea, and gulped it down.

She didn't want Xue Ye to stay, nor did she want Yan Zhaohan or Meng Tou to stay, she wanted the three of them to stay and serve her together.

Meng Tou pretended not to understand what she said, and said: "Mu Mi is in a hurry to announce, besides, we don't want to bother you in the palace."

Patriarch Menghua said: "Don't worry about it, I see you happy, and I want to stay with you for a few more days. If you are worried about the old men over there, I will send someone to write a letter right now, saying that you will stay in Menghua. Hua Palace."

Apparently Patriarch Menghua refused to let them go.

Meng Tou was speechless, and he wanted to speak out many times during the meeting, but he swallowed them all.Xue Ye also swallowed twice, and the tea twice.Later, his throat and eyes were not blocked, and his heart was blocked.On the way back, he also asked Meng Tou, "Brother Tou, do you think she really doesn't understand, or is she pretending not to understand?"

Not far ahead were two teenagers with lanterns leading the way. Meng Tou said softly, "At this age, everyone in this generation is a genius. People have already cultivated the Tao. You and I, we are still a long way off." .”

They entered the carved building and went up the wooden ladder.

Meng Tou went on to say: "When you meet this kind of person, you are finished. You dragged both of us into the water. It will be very difficult for Shaojun and I to get out now."

Xue Ye lowered his voice: "Then what should we do? Wait for death? If I want to serve that old hag, I would rather die."

"Don't make noise, there will always be a solution. Let's go back to sleep first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow." The forgiving Meng Tou patted him on the shoulder, climbed up to the second floor, and followed a boy around the corner.Meng Tou followed him to the door of the room and watched him take out the key to unlock it.

Meng Tou looked towards the stairs, and both Yan Zhaohan and Xue Ye followed another boy up to the third floor.Xue Ye was going to the third floor, yes.Why did Yan Zhaohan follow up without saying a word?

At this time, the boy opened the door, lit the candle on the table, and invited him in.He glanced inside, ho, glass screen carved soft couch embroidered carpet.He thought to himself that this old hag is really a pile of gold and jade, turning every room into a gentle town.
