Onmyoji

Why do I always feel dry mouth today?

Gong Heng picked up the teacup to drink tea again.He still remembered most of what happened yesterday, it was just because he was moved by what Yanyan said...it's no big deal.

but……

When I woke up this morning, because I was blind, I fumbled around with my conditioned reflexes, but I didn't expect to touch a fleshy body.

That kind of angle... seems to be hugging himself.Touching the tea set at the side with one hand, it was only then that they realized that they slept outside the wing all night yesterday.

No, it seemed very awkward for the two of them to sit and drink tea together, and the atmosphere around them was also very strange.

Couldn't bear to pick up the tea and drink it again.In fact, he didn't think these things were embarrassing, but Yanyan must say something.Until now, Yanyan hasn't said a word, and the atmosphere cannot be relieved by Gong Heng alone...

He picked up the teacup again to drink tea, but this time Chen Chen pressed Gong Heng's hand.

"Guanwan should drink less tea, I drank too much this morning, how can I have morning tea later?" Seeing Gong Heng put down the teacup, Chen Chen withdrew his hand.

Looking at Gong Heng with a smile in his eyes, there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.He knew that Gong Heng was a little uneasy now, and of course he also knew that it was because what happened last night must have made him embarrassed, so he didn't say anything, fearing that Gong Heng would lose face.

Seeing what Chen Chen said, Gong Heng withdrew his hand.Yes, Gong Heng did not deny that he was indeed moved last night, but this does not mean that Gong Heng can relax his vigilance towards Chen Chen.After all, one matter is another matter, if Chen Chen does anything to harm him in the future, Gong Heng will deal with Yan Yan directly.

"My lord, the morning tea is ready."

A clerk outside the door said.Chen Chen also got up and helped Gong Heng go out.Stay on the second floor and sit down next to the guardrail.Looking from the second floor, there were not many people on the first floor.Most of them are residents of the Haoyoulai store, and they also wake up in the morning to have morning tea.

"The flower cakes are pretty good, you can try some." Chen Chen pushed the plate containing the flower cakes to Gong Heng.Gong Heng also nodded politely.

"What's the matter, Yu Wan?"

Gong Heng didn't realize what Chen Chen said for a while, and looked at Chen Chen in a daze.Because she didn't wear much veil recently, Chen Chen's whole body became pimples with her clear green pupils.

"what?"

Seeing that Gong Heng was puzzled, he just smiled, peeled the dried fruit on the plate for Gong Heng and replied, "You can't alienate me just because we slept together yesterday..."

Gong Heng was caught off guard by what Chen Chen said, and almost choked.

asleep?No matter how you hear this, it feels strange.And he didn't alienate him?

"Young Master Yan is overthinking, I have no such intention."

Of course, I fell asleep without what he said...

Chen Chen's smile got bigger and bigger, like a child, he felt happy when he made fun of Gong Heng.

"It seems that Yanyan is overthinking..."

"but."

A turning point made Gong Heng think again.Chen Chen raised the corners of his mouth evilly.

"I'm afraid it's because of what happened last night that Hun Wan has a lot of relationship with me. Could it be that Hun Wan likes me?"

"Yanyan!"

Gong Heng was forced to shout in a low voice, he didn't expect Yanyan to be so shy.Just say some embarrassing things, and make a conclusion that he likes him?

Gong Heng drank a cup of tea angrily before suppressing his anger.She wanted not to be angry with people like Yanyan.Not only is it not worth it, it is also a loss of identity.

"Ah, don't be angry, Huan Wan, I'm just talking, after all, you don't really like me, right?" Chen Chen also dealt with Gong Heng perfunctorily in this way.

"Heh! I have never seen such a shameless person." Gong Heng answered Chen Chen coldly, wondering what happened today?To be so angry.

"Yes, I was wrong, and I apologize."

As he spoke, Chenchen lifted the tea to Gong Heng and drank it.Gong Heng ignored Chen Chen and continued to eat Huasu, and Chen Chen no longer provoked Gong Heng.

More and more people came to the store, and the first floor was almost full.Chatting with each other, very comfortable.

"Later there will be a performance by a storyteller. Everyone in Heshi Zhou likes to watch this." Chen Chen said to Gong Heng.

Immediately after that, a middle-aged and elderly person came out on the first floor.Judging by his appearance...he should be quite old.Wearing a light blue robe, he came to the stage in the center of the hall on the first floor.Put the tea cup on the table casually, pick up the fan and beat the palm of your hand.

"Mentors, let's go down to the house."

After waiting for everyone in the audience to applaud and welcome, Shezi continued.

"This is the 97th year of the Wuyu Great Zhou Dynasty. Then let's talk about some important and trivial things that happened in the Wuyu Great Zhou on the current anniversary." After speaking, Shezi picked up the teacup to drink water, and everyone did not criticize Shezi for not paying attention .

"Of course, the earliest thing that happened in the Zhou Dynasty was the matter of the first Onmyoji, Master Gong Heng, who jumped into the river of addicted souls to atone for his sins. It has been 90 years. Of course, before Gong Heng came to power, his behavior was not inferior to others. .Do your best to contribute a lot to Wuyu Dazhou. However, once this person stays in the highest position for a long time, he will always be eager for quick success, arrogant and arrogant, and lead to madness. Gong Heng has merit, but also has deeds. And denying his merit, this is a fact. Of course, Gong Heng has paid the price for his transgression, and he has made atonement. Let him pass when it is over. After all, the next year will be a prosperous year with flowers blooming."

Shezi also said with a little helplessness.The words Gone with the Wind floated into everyone's ears, making people think deeply.Here Gong Heng was slightly surprised when he heard She Zi's words.

"Look, Wan Wan. I'm sure someone will be on your side." Chen Chen also hurriedly said while the iron was hot, hoping that Gong Heng could understand that there are still people in this world who are willing to understand and forgive Gong Heng.

"yes……"

Gong Heng didn't know what to say, she was scolded by thousands of people, but now there is someone willing to understand you.It was like a child who had never eaten candy got the candy he had wanted for a long time, a little surprised, a little overwhelmed...

She Zi took a sip of water and began to say, "After this, Chen Chen, the head of the Chen family!"

Gong Heng was stunned, as expected.Once Gong Heng heard this name, he couldn't calm down.Chenchen also subconsciously looked at Gong Heng.

"This Chenchen used to be the number one attendant under Gong Heng's banner. As a refiner, it can be said that Chenchen is the talent who can best bear the name of refiner. Many famous magic weapons in this world come from Chenchen's hand. For example, his own folding plum umbrella has many uses and is really top-grade. For example, the folding pear fan in Gong Heng's hand is also made by Chen Chen. Heard that the folding pear fan is extremely powerful. The fan is the sudden cold air. In Mengsi bow and so on, these are all high-grade magical weapons. But it is a pity that I have followed Gong Heng for too long, and I can't tell right from wrong, helping the evildoers and harming countless people." When She Zi said this, it seemed Somewhat disappointed.

Chenchen raised her head and gave Shezi a blank look.This old man speaks without understanding anything.How did he know who Chenchen was for?Because of who?Besides, he did no harm.Of course, there is no reason for Gong Heng's instigation...

Gong Heng's complexion is not very good here, he can hear the meaning of She Zi's words.It was nothing more than Chen Chen being an excellent refiner, but just because he followed Gong Heng, he became indifferent to right and wrong, as if he, Gong Heng, had led Chen Chen into trouble.

Of course, the reason why Gong Heng didn't refute was because he actually thought the same way.Chenchen was only 25 years old when he followed him, and he was already 120 years old. Of course, he felt that he didn't teach Chenchen well so that Chenchen followed him regardless.In my heart, I also feel that I owe Chenchen...

"Oh, I don't want to listen anymore. Let's go out for a walk."

Chenchen didn't wait for Gong Heng to agree to pull him away.The old man!Don't pay attention to what you say.Seeing Gong Heng's self-reproach, Chen Chen didn't know what to do.

After walking to the Su River last night and stopping, Gong Heng also sat down by touching the stone.

"That, Wan Wan. Don't pay attention to what the old man said, he just has a big mouth, he can say everything." Chen Chen eagerly wanted to comfort Gong Heng, but it was obvious that Gong Heng didn't feel comfortable in the slightest.

"Yanyan."

"Well, I'm here."

"You, do you think I've led Chen Chen to the ground?" Gong Heng probably felt uncomfortable, with tremors in his words.Chen Chen also sat down and replied, "How could it be, maybe Chen... the Master of Chen Clan did it himself voluntarily."

Gong Heng smiled wryly and shook his head.Why did he look stupid when it came to Chen Chen's question.

"Perhaps it's better not to see."

I shouldn't have seen it before, and I definitely won't see it in the future.

"Gu Wan...you are really ruthless. If you say you don't see it, you will see it. What if the master of Chenmen wants to see you very much? How can this be good?"

Chen Chen's voice trembled a little.Just now Gong Heng said that it is better not to see each other, this sentence is really hurtful, does Gong Heng hope that they will be like strangers from now on?Don't bother?Never mention it again?

Wuyu Dazhou was 25 years old.

After seeing Wen Feng in Luohe, Gong Heng left and came to Heshi Zhou.Today he came to Shishi to find his eldest sister Gong Ying by order of his father.Since his elder sister married Chen Hua, she rarely returned to Daoyi Shushan, and she missed her very much. ?

"Heng!"

The woman who spoke came in from the gate, followed by a man.The woman stepped forward and hugged Gong Heng suddenly, looking very happy, and the man smiled when he saw the woman was happy.

This scene looked so wonderful in Gong Heng's eyes.Gong Heng was also happy, after all his eldest sister lived happily in Shishi...

"Eldest sister, I'm almost out of breath?" Gong Ying hurriedly let go of Gong Heng as she spoke.Gong Heng smiled and nodded to the man behind.

"Brother-in-law."

Chen Hua also nodded consciously.Here Gong Ying is pulling Gong Heng again, saying that she definitely wants Gong Heng to stay and have dinner before leaving.

"Elder Sister, I'm afraid I won't be able to stay this time, and I'll have to rush back to Xing Dian later. By the way, this time my father asked me to give you your jade pendant. My father said it's very important, don't lose it. "

"Okay, I'll pay attention."

Putting away the jade pendant, he began to say sloppily, "Heng, you just stay with me. I haven't seen you for a long time."

Gong Heng felt a little helpless, looking at Chen Hua as if asking for help from her brother-in-law again.Chen Hua laughed and shook her head realizing that he couldn't help it.Seeing that Chen Hua didn't care, Gong Heng couldn't stand Gong Ying's coquetry and coquettishness and agreed.well!It seems that I have to stay in Shishi for a while today...

"Heng, hey! This is the best black chicken stew. You must pay attention to your body and don't be too tired."

Gong Ying knew that Gong Heng was busy with his duties as an Onmyoji, and sometimes he couldn't make time for dinner.

"Understood, elder sister. You eat too, don't always pinch for me."

"There's more..."

Gong Heng really couldn't bear Gong Ying's ability to speak, and her mouth seemed to be talking like she wanted to finish it all at once.Chen Hua saw Gong Heng's helplessness, and lightly tapped Gong Ying's head, realizing that Gong Ying should calm down.Gong Ying was knocked on the head, looking at Chen Hua looking at Gong Heng.Looking a little innocent, he lowered his head and said no more.

"By the way, Ah Heng, do you have a girl you like?" Sure enough, after a while, Gong Ying couldn't help asking.Gong Heng was also frightened.

"This...why did elder sister suddenly ask this?"

Gong Ying stared at Gong Heng with a look of resentment. "It's not that the elder sister insisted on mentioning it, but you also met. You are 120 years old this year, and Wen Feng married Rushan at the age of 35. Should you consider your affairs now?"

Gong Heng was really helpless, but he didn't know what to say.

"Wen Feng got married only when he found true love. Where can I find true love now? Since I don't have it, I don't force it. She is strict and calm, just let nature take its course."

It is obvious that Gong Ying does not agree with Gong Heng's words, but it is helpless that Gong Heng doesn't have anyone he likes, if there is, it will be easy.

"That's because you are asking too much. After all, not everyone is perfect."

Of course Gong Heng agrees with what Gong Ying said, but is her request really high?

"Sister, my highest requirement is to find a woman who I love and she loves me too. Do you think this is high?"

This is not high.There is no threshold, just to find someone who likes each other.Is this high?

Gong Ying stopped her mouth and didn't speak any more.After all, there is no rush.Gong Heng planned to leave after eating, bid farewell to Gong Ying and Chen Hua, and left from Shishi Houshan.

It was still early, and of course Chenchen thought it was still early.He took his elder brother Chen Yan to pick fruit from the fruit tree in the back mountain.Chen Chen looked at Chen Chen on the tree with a dark face, he was also puzzled that Chen Chen would not eat dinner, and insisted on dragging him to pick fruits together, but seeing Chen Chen climbed so high, he still had a dark face. with worry.

"Be careful, I won't catch you if you fall later"

Chenchen listened to Chen Yan's words, and continued to climb up without paying attention.Since the ghost city incident seven years ago, the relationship between him and his elder brother Chen Chen has eased a lot. After all, Chen Chen still can't forget that Chen Chen stood in front of him to defend himself from the attack of the tree demon, and finally dragged the tree demon back. Tell yourself to run fast.

Chenchen is a man, and he doesn't know how to moan and chirp. Hearing Chen Yan telling him to go quickly, he paused for a while and then left.It wasn't until she was rescued by Gong Heng and returned to the inn at the foot of the mountain that Chen Tan was seriously injured.This is also the reason why I decided not to follow Gong Heng to leave, but to stay with Chen Yan to return to Shishi.

"I know, I know."

Chen Yan, he is a man with a knife mouth and a bean curd heart.And very typical.After climbing up, he picked the fruits and threw them down one by one. Chen Yan also quickly picked them up and put them in his pocket.The two of them got busy, so naturally they didn't pay attention to the person coming from behind...

Gong Heng was also a novelty. When he left the mountain, he saw the fruit trees shaking behind the mountain. Curiously, he walked around the rockery and saw a man picking fruit on the tree, and a man picking fruit under the tree.Walk in slowly and take a look, alas!Aren't these the two children I rescued in Ghost Mountain seven years ago?Kui Gongheng still remembers, after all, his memory is generally too bad.

He still still remembers that child Chen Chan shouted that he wanted to bring back his younger brother Chen Chen, and when he happily said that he wanted to leave with him, but when he finally saw Chen Chan who was seriously injured, he regretted not going with Gong Heng. Chenchen left.

It seems that their relationship is not as bad as it is said outside.

Chen Yan bent down to pick up the fruit, and suddenly saw the shadow on the ground behind him, so frightened, he quickly pulled out his sword and turned around to stab.Gong Heng flashed lightly, and stood behind Chen Yan.

Chen Yan froze for an instant when he turned around and stabbed again.This person is Gong Heng.Gong Heng also smiled consciously at Chen Yan.

"Who?"

Chenchen on the tree shouted, he saw the fight just now, but asked because he couldn't see Gong Heng's face.I hurried down the tree but slipped.To be caught while sadly accepting the pain?

"Fairy?"

Chen Chen seemed a little excited. After seven years, he saw Gong Heng again.Gong Heng smiled at Chenchen and let him down.

"Could it be that I will always be a fairy in your eyes?"

Seeing Gong Heng asking jokingly, Chen Chen replied sincerely, "Of course, good people are all immortals."

Same words, different time.Even if the past few years, in Chenchen's heart, it may be but a flick of a finger.

"Forget it, long time no see. Chenchenchenchen."

Chen Yan also put away his sword and nodded his consciousness.

Gong Heng nodded and raised his foot to leave.Chen Chen hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "The Immortal is leaving?"

Gong Heng also nodded.

"Is the immortal going back to Xing Dian?"

Gong Heng also nodded, of course he wanted to go back to Xing Dian.After all, wherever Xingshi Palace is, he always has to go back.Chenchen turned his right hand, and a folding fan appeared under the starlight.

"This is the fan that the immortal once gave me. I have already refined it into a magic weapon. It can be used for decoration and to eliminate evil." Pass it to Gong Heng and wait for Gong Heng's response.

Gong Heng looked at this fan with a little surprise. When he left Ghost City seven years ago, he gave Chen Chen a fan, and it was just a gadget that he carried with him.It is said that if Chenchen refines the fan into a magic weapon, he will be recruited into the killing palace.

...Now, is this letting me recruit him?

"Haha, that's all. I promised you, of course I agree. Even so, Chenchen, do you want to leave now or? Later?"

Chenchen jumped up happily, he knew that immortals are different from others!If you promised, you will naturally agree.

Looking at Chen Yan's uneasy face, he said, "Brother, please help me tell my father that it will take a long time to come back after leaving this time."

"You... Chenchen, Chen..."

Chenchen followed Gong Heng and left without saying any more.Although Chen Yan was very upset, he had no choice but to help Chen Chen tell the matter.After all, he is an adult, and no one else can control what he does.

Gong Heng, who was sitting on the horseback, watched another horse come over, thinking that Shishi actually came to take Chen Chen, the son of Chen Han, by the way.Guess the old fox would inevitably scold him behind his back.

"Immortal, let's go."

"Forget it, from now on, Chen Chen and the world can just call me Master Gong Heng."

"No, then there is no special feeling."

Gong Heng was surprised and puzzled.Do you still want to feel special this morning?He is just like the other onmyojis in the same industry as the Palace Killer, so why should he feel special?

"I'll call you sir from now on."

Gong Heng smiled.gentlemen?All right, whatever he wants.However, I really don't know if I should take him back to Xingshi Palace?

"Chenchen, do you think this is destined or just fate?"

Chenchen watched Gong Heng ride away with him on horseback.

"Sir, this is fate."
