Hearing this, Gu Nan looked up at him.

Seeing him like this, Lou Yichen shrugged his shoulders and smiled, and said: "It's been exactly four years since the destruction of Wushuang Valley, and Yan Wugui, the owner of the Tibetan Sword Villa, is now well known in the world for finding the person who destroyed Wushuang Valley for you."

"..."

"The owner of the Hidden Sword Villa makes a move. Naturally, no one can escape. Now the person behind it may not be able to hide for long."

Speaking, Lou Yichen passed the oil lamp to his left hand, and stretched his right hand in front of Gu Nan: "Some people will come to you today, entrusted by the old man, Mr. Gu, until Yan Wugui solves everything, let me protect you .”

Looking down at Lou Yichen's hand, Gu Nan frowned.

Lou Yichen didn't take back his hand, but just waited with a smile, looking very calm.

After thinking for a long time, Gu Nan raised his head and stretched out his hand silently.

The moment the palms touched, the system prompt sounded reads; wood, come here for me.

[Ding, the main task [Uncover the Mystery of the Destruction of Wushuang Valley] is released, the reward points for completing the task are [-], the host cheers. 】

Hearing the system beep, Gu Nan narrowed his eyes.

Lou Yichen withdrew his hand and said, "Mr. Gu, let's go."

The carriage drove slowly, and soon it was out of the range of Sanqing Valley.

Lou Yichen did not take Gu Nan to Tianlong Villa, but went to an unknown mountain.

There is a different village on the mountain, Lou Yichen settled Gu Nan and left in a hurry.

Gu Nan put his things away, turned his head to look at the husky wagging his tail, and reached out to touch his ears.

This villa is very deserted, except for a dumb servant, Gu Nan is the only one left.

Gu Nan walks around the villa every day when he has nothing to do, occasionally playing with the flowers and plants in the yard, and his life is quite comfortable.

There has been no news from Yan Wugui, and Gu Nan is not in a hurry.

On the third day after arriving in the valley, there was an extra person in the valley, Lin Sheng.

When Gu Nan saw him, he stood in front of the garden expressionless and gestured with the dumb servant. Seeing Gu Nan approaching, Lin Sheng's eyes softened a little, then ignored the dumb servant's gesture, and directly took out a wooden sign from his arms Pass it to the dumb servant.

The dumb servant took the wooden sign and looked at it carefully, then returned the wooden sign to Lin Sheng, turned around and nodded to Gu Nan before leaving.

There were only the two of them left in the garden.

Gu Nan looked at Lin Sheng's expressionless face and smiled, "Long time no see."

Lin Sheng didn't move, his eyes were clear and faint, and the depths were full of elusive mist.

There was silence all around, and it took a long time before Gu Nan saw a cyan corner of his clothes appear in front of him. He raised his head, Lin Sheng stood in front of him, reached out to brush the fallen leaves off his hair, and hummed softly.

[Ding, the target Lin Sheng's favorability is +10, and the current favorability is 55 (cherish). 】

Lin Sheng's room is next to Gu Nan's.

At night, Gu Nan lay on the bed and stared at his warm jade pendant in a daze.

This was last autumn, after Yan Wugui picked it off, he tossed and turned in pain at night, couldn't sleep and vomited blood many times, Yan Wugui personally brought it to him.

Gu Nan didn't quite remember Yan Wugui's expression at that time, the only thing that left a deep impression on him was those red eye sockets.

Because it was the first time for Gu Nan, when he faced Yan Wugui, he suddenly felt distressed.

The daze was finally interrupted by a knock on the door, Gu Nan sat up and brought Nuanyu back, got out of bed and opened the door.

It's Lin Sheng.

He stood at the door, holding a wooden tray in his hand, and said lightly: "It's time to drink the medicine."

Gu Nan hummed and invited him in, closed the door, walked to the table, sat down, picked up the medicine bowl and drank it in one gulp, it tasted very bitter, Gu Nan wrinkled his nose, but still didn't touch the candied fruit next to the medicine bowl.

Lin Sheng's eyes darkened, and he looked down at the flickering candles on the table. After a long time, he said softly, "Do you want to go back with me?"

Gu Nan froze for a moment, then shook his head after realizing it.

"Then... is it because Yan has no return?"

Gu Nan thought for a while, and finally smiled and hummed reads; let's run, little hamster.

Lin Sheng didn't speak any more.

The atmosphere froze for a moment.

The candles on the table dwindled slowly, and candle tears dripped down the candles, condensing into a ball on the table.

Gu Nan took a new candle and continued lighting it up, and when he looked up again, Lin Sheng had already stood up, and the candle light shone on his face, flickering indistinctly.

"It's late, I'll go back first."

Gu Nan blankly agreed.

Lin Sheng turned around and walked towards the door. When he reached the door, he stopped suddenly, glanced at the pendant on Gu Nan's neck, and said softly, "God bless Yu, Gu Nan, take care."

Then he turned around and disappeared by the door.

The wooden door was slowly closed, Gu Nan looked at the closed door, smiled and held Nuanyu.

Afterwards it was business as usual.

Gu Nan walked around the villa every day, and Lin Sheng followed behind him without saying anything, but occasionally looked at Gu Nan's back playing with flowers and plants, his eyes dimmed.

He was silent by nature, Gu Nan didn't think there was anything unusual about him, and continued to live heartlessly.

Another five days passed.

There are only two days left until January.

In the morning, I went to water the flowers and plants in the yard as usual. At noon, I basked in the sun and read a book as usual. In the afternoon, I strolled and continued to water as usual. In the evening, Gu Nan was about to boil the medicine as usual, but when he arrived in the kitchen, he found that the herbs were gone.

Ever since he accepted the setting of vomiting blood and short life, Gu Nan cherished his body very much, and immediately went out to find the dumb servant for medicinal herbs, but he searched the entire villa, but Gu Nan did not find the dumb servant.

Then Gu Nan discovered that he hadn't seen Lin Sheng since this morning.

Gu Shang Gu Nan, who returned to the room, kept paying attention to the figures of the dumb servant and Lin Sheng, but he couldn't see them until he went back to the room to lie down.

The villa is huge and the night is very dark.

Gu Nan hugged the quilt and looked outside, he could vaguely see mottled tree shadows and silk cloth fluttering in the wind.

Some horror.

After staying up until midnight, Gu Nan barely fell asleep.He didn't sleep well, waking up suddenly every once in a while, and then continued to sleep.

After repeating it several times, Gu Nan didn't even want to sleep, so he simply sat up and stared at the window in a daze.

The result of not sleeping well is two bright dark circles under the eye sockets.

Seeing the light outside, Gu Nan got out of bed dejectedly, washed his face with cold water, and felt a little more awake.

After taking care of himself, Gu Nan took the water bottle and went out. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Lin Sheng standing in front of the door with his sword in his arms, his eyes filled with exhaustion.

"...How long have you been standing here?" Gu Nan looked at him, feeling that the other party's mental state was much worse than that of a person who hadn't slept all night.

Lin Sheng didn't speak, but just looked at Gu Nan quietly. His eyes were still as clear as usual, but in the depths of the clearness, many hidden emotions were churning and swirling, gradually turning into a dark color.

"Follow me, Gu Nan."

Come with me, Gu Nan.

Gu Nan has heard these five words reads;

In the past world, many people have said such things to him, everyone expressed different emotions in their words, there are anger, sadness, disappointment, hope... many, many, but never any one Like Lin Sheng, it is very plain, but it can make people feel the complexity in the depths.

Gu Nan was silent for a long time, and finally shook his head as usual countless times.

Lin Sheng's eyes darkened completely, the veins in the hand holding the scabbard bulged, and his whole body burst out of despair in an instant.

In the next second, Gu Nan's arm was tightly held by Lin Sheng, and before he could react, his eyes went dark.

At the end of his line of sight, he saw Lin Sheng's eyes, the former innocence had long since disappeared, and deep black filled them, like clouds and fog, boundless.

The last thing he saw before he passed out was Lin Sheng.

Lou Yichen was the first thing he saw when he woke up.

Seeing Gu Nan wake up, Lou Yichen put down the book in his hand and smiled at Gu Nan: "Mr. Gu."

Gu Nan sat up and looked around: "Where's Lin Sheng?"

Lou Yichen looked at Gu Nan, and the smile in his eyes was unobstructed. After a while, he spoke softly, but what he said avoided Gu Nan's question: "Mr. Gu, let me take you somewhere."

Gu Nan looked at him silently.

The latter smiled calmly, as if he was sure that Gu Nan would follow him.

Seeing him like this, Gu Nan finally nodded: "Let's go."

The place Lou Yichen took Gu Nan to was a high cliff in the back mountain.

It was summer at this time, and there were mountain flowers everywhere, only the top of this high cliff was full of rocks and grass, and it was desolate.

Gu Nan stood up, and Lou Yichen stood next to him and looked down, smiling: "Mr. Gu, I have lived for 30 years, and this place is the one that impresses me the most. Do you know why?"

Gu Nan didn't speak.

Lou Yichen didn't care about his silence, and pointed down: "Because four years ago, I stood here and watched a place that had been passed down for hundreds of years turn into ashes under my instruction. Here, even from such a distance, the sounds of fighting and screams below can be heard."

"This fire burned all night. The flames are very beautiful. You may have never seen such a fire. The colors are bright, the heat is scorching, and it is amazing. The next day, that place disappeared." Lou Yichen turned around with a smile, his voice low With a smile: "I witnessed the fall of a family, Mr. Gu."

The place he pointed at, which Gu Nan knew, was the former Wushuang Valley.

Gu Nan looked up at Lou Yichen, who was still smiling: "Wu Shuanggu retired a hundred years ago, but before retiring, every emperor in the Great Qi Dynasty came from Wushuang Valley. Wouldn't it be too ridiculous to say that it only depends on inheritance?"

"...Do you want to start from Wushuang Valley and intervene in the court?"

"Who doesn't want to?" Lou Yichen smiled: "You will be dressed in white clothes all your life in the ups and downs of the rivers and lakes. How can it compare to the glory and wealth of the imperial court?"

As he said that, he took a step forward, his eyes full of malice: "It's a pity that I destroyed the Wushuang Valley and failed to get the treasures of the Wushuang family. Fortunately, now, I found you again."

"You have no choice, Mr. Gu."

[Ding, the main task [Uncover the Mystery of the Destruction of Wushuang Valley] is completed, and the reward points for completing the task are [-]. 】

[Ding, the ultimate mission of the plot [Revenge] is open, mission content: kill Lou Yichen, reward points for completing the mission is [-], this mission is mandatory irreversible, failure penalty: world obliteration. 】
