Doutu Continent

The ability of the fairy in the picture.

"Uncle's acquaintance?" Ye Mofan recalled his whole day's schedule. Anyone who can call his uncle an acquaintance must have lived to be hundreds of years old.But why the indeterminate word "seems"?

Who could actually cause Gu Youzhi to have mood swings?

Ye Mofan pursed his lips tightly, his expression cold.

No way?

Qualified, he only thought of one person.The other party has stayed in the Unreal Valley for hundreds of years and is proficient in the art of painting skins.Her ever-changing face and old voice that doesn't match her appearance left a deep impression on her.

Because he is proficient in spells and has a pair of eyes that can see through the disguise, Ye Mofan was once afraid.But today he forcibly deciphered the technique of painting skin, forcing the other party to show his true face.

Although it was only a quick glance, the rugged face covered with ferocious scars was enough to make people have nightmares.The strong contrast between the beautiful face and dry bones has made Ye Mofan astonished even now in retrospect.

Could it be that uncle actually recognized the terrifying face under that painted skin?Is the indeterminate word "seems" used because it has changed so much?

Nostalgia and sadness appeared on Gu Youzhi's handsome face, and he said quietly, "Qiu Wanchi, the mirage concubine with thousands of faces, may be my old friend—Gong Wan."

"..." The atmosphere was wrong.Gong Wan.strange name.The surname is Gong, is it from the Gong family?

Ye Mofan fell silent when his uncle said the name, and he didn't dare to ask if the other party didn't say it.

Ye Mofan was not able to participate in the conversation between his two masters and his uncle, and knew nothing about the conflict between the two daughters of the Gong family because of Gu Youzhi, but he could also feel the inexplicable emotion emerging in the strange atmosphere.

"I thought she was no longer in this world... suffering." Gu Youzhi regained his voice, trembling slightly.

Thinking of the past that his nephew didn't know about, he explained to Ye Mofan: "Gong Wan is Gong Huanyan's cousin. I mastered the art of painting skin when I discussed it with her. This method leads to the same goal through different routes, and the method of cracking it Similar, I didn't think much about it at first, but... how many people are left in the world with such superb secret skills? Why didn't I think about it earlier?"

Ye Mofan has always known that his uncle's painting skills are high.The tricks he learned from his uncle didn't show any flaws in front of the ancestors of the Gong family.This is the first time I heard of the name Gong Wan.Or from the mouth of my uncle.Curious as hell.

"Uncle also said that he thought she had already passed away, so why would he think so much?" Ye Mofan comforted.Secretly guess the relationship between the two.He has never had any emotional entanglements with any woman, and even the teachers and sisters in the same courtyard have little contact.The words of comfort sounded so weak.

Gu Youzhi still couldn't mind what happened back then, and said with a sad expression: "She was killed by Gong Huanyan a hundred years ago. When she disappeared, her appearance was destroyed and her limbs were also crushed. These were revealed by Gong Huanyan when she killed me."

Ye Mofan was stunned, suppressed his strong curiosity, and analyzed rationally: "But uncle, Thousand Faces Magic Ji walks like a normal person, and can paint on skin. It doesn't look like she has suffered serious injuries. If even the crushed limbs can be cured, With such a powerful doctor around, why hasn’t the scar on her face been healed? Maybe it’s a coincidence?”

"...Gong Wan was born with a birthmark under her left eye. The powder is like a flower petal." Gu Youzhi was slightly shaken by this suspicious point, but he produced another piece of evidence for comparison. "At Thousand Faces Magic Girl, you can vaguely see a red seal. Qiu Wanchi and Gong Wan both have the word Wan in their names, and they are also proficient in the art of painting skins. How can there be so many coincidences in the world, all of which are concentrated on one person? She might be the Gong Wan I knew back then."

So how many times did uncle feel abnormal today?

Ye Mofan spoke softly, and suggested: "Since uncle thinks she is an old friend, why don't you drag her into a dream?"

Just like what they did to Xie Chunfeng back then.

Gu Youzhi's confused eyes, after being reminded by his nephew, gathered his spirit again, and made a decision: "Dream? I want to meet her. There are still some questions about what happened back then. Good nephew, can you Would you like to go with me?"

Ye Mofan shook his head hastily and said, "Uncle, if you catch up with your old friend, I, an outsider, won't get involved."

Gu Youzhi's attitude this time was extremely firm.pondered. "You are not an outsider, you are from the Gu family. I didn't see her entirely because of the past. She is in the Illusion Valley, and she is Yan Hong's woman. If she is really Gong Wan, I must meet her. Maybe you can too." Get something out of her."

After making up his mind, Gu Youzhi spoke more fluently, even when he mentioned the other party's subtle identity as "Yan Hong's woman", his tone did not change.I don't know if it's relieved, or if I really didn't have any ambiguity with the other party back then.More for the sake of my nephew.

"At this time, she should be asleep, right? You follow me, and when you pull her into the world in the painting, uncle will make you invisible, so she won't find out that there is another person besides me."

Ye Mofan no longer refuses, the other party has already made plans, he only has his jaw.

Gu Youzhi smiled, closed his eyes and searched for a moment, and brought his nephew into another space with a wave of his hand.

The surrounding scene completely changed.Ye Mofan looked around, and found that this place was unexpectedly familiar, it turned out to be the Gong family.

However, there are still some differences.This palace family didn't even see the iconic pattern of the phoenix phoenix tree.There is also no Gong family totem that Gong Shuo changed to replace it.This is the palace family that was not destroyed by the battle between him and the ancestor of the palace family, but it lacks some buildings that he had seen when he was a guest.

"This is the palace family from a hundred years ago." Gu Youzhi's leisurely voice came, his expression so calm that he suppressed it: "It really is her!"

This is not Gu Youzhi's memory, but Gong Wan's dream.

Ye Mofan finally saw Qiu Wanchi's appearance back then.His eyes fell on the other person's left eye, and there was no petal birthmark as his uncle said, and his complexion was fair and flawless.Although it is not stunning, it is also beautiful as a flower.

Could it be that she had used the technique of painting skin all day long to change her appearance?

Gu Youzhi saw his nephew's doubts, and answered: "This is Gong Wan. She practiced painting skin to cover up the birthmark on her face. She is in her dream now, and she can't see us. You can make a sound."

Ye Mofan nodded in response, had nothing to say, and quietly watched Mrs. Qianmian's dream.

In the dream, she trotted cheerfully all the way to the door of a room, then stopped, stretched out her hands to press down on the lapel of her clothes, eased her breathing, smoothed the unruly wrinkles on her clothes, and then Pingting pushed the door forward , walked in.

"Youzhi." Her words were full of joy and her eyes were full of affection. Anyone who saw her at this moment could guess that she was going to meet her sweetheart.

Ye Mofan looked at his uncle with a subtle expression.

Gu Youzhi didn't speak, but stood upright, pinching the cuffs and wrinkling the surrounding fabric, obviously not calm on the surface, especially when he saw the people in the room - himself a hundred years ago.

In Mrs. Qianmian's dream, Gu Youzhi was dressed in green and her black hair was like a waterfall. She was no different from the fairy in the painting a hundred years later, but her expression was full of joy and without worry. This reminded Ye Mofan of the first time he saw his uncle, The nature of the other party spit out a sassy remark from time to time.

The incomparably handsome man, who has not experienced misery, lives happily and happily. Even with the same face and the same temperament, it is easy to distinguish the two.

"That's not me." Gu Youzhi argued. "I would never show such a frivolous smile in front of her."

Who can tell what happened a hundred years ago?This is the benevolent see benevolence and the wise see wisdom.Ye Mofan thought to himself.

After that, they were stunned to see Gu Youzhi in the dream, smiled affectionately at the woman, and said gracefully: "My lady."

"&R$...&"

Ye Mofan secretly looked over, his uncle Gu Youzhi's expression...was not so bright.

Because it was the other party's dream, she couldn't see them, and couldn't hear them talking. Ye Mofan, who had kept his mouth shut from the beginning and didn't say a word, couldn't help but said: "If uncle marries her, he should go back home."

Still living in the palace family, could it be a marriage?He was thinking wildly.

"Gong Wan has never been to Gu's house, the palace is the place she is most familiar with." Even if it was the place where her nightmare started.Gu Youzhi said calmly.

"I vaguely know what she wants, but it's impossible to realize." Gu Youzhi knew that the matter had come to an end, and it was useless to talk, but he still forcefully explained.

Can't tell if it's pitiful or sad.Unlike Gong Huanyan, Gong Wan doesn't have such good qualifications.Because of low self-esteem, she stayed in the palace family all her life and was in contact with a small world.

If it weren't for the natural flaws in her appearance, she wouldn't even be involved in the art of painting skins. She is waiting to marry, have children, and have grandchildren in the future. She has been muddled all her life, but now she has become Qiu Wanchi, the fairy girl with thousands of faces in the valley of illusion. , It can be said that it is good fortune to trick people.

Gu Youzhi lost his temper only because he met his old friend from a hundred years ago.After truly confirming that Qiu Wanchi, the Magical Girl with Thousand Faces, is Gong Wan, after sighing for their past.As a painting master, Gu Youzhi's self-cultivation and bearing made him clearly know what to do.

"My good nephew, my uncle is going to bring her into the world of paintings. From now on, you must not make a sound, or she will think it's haunted." Gu Youzhi said with a smile, "It's already a nightmare to have a ghost like me in her dream. I'm afraid she won't be able to bear it."

Ye Mofan remained silent.Uncle has always liked to regard himself as a fairy, and let the fairy in the painting demote himself to a ghost.Although Gu Youzhi didn't show it obviously, he could still sense that his uncle was angry from the smiling eyes of the other party.

The scenery changed again, and the two crooked people in the dream disappeared. In an instant, Gu Youzhi had dragged Gong Wan from the dream to the world in the painting.

It's still the Gong family, but not the Gong family it was a hundred years ago.Ye Mofan's eyes went dark, and when he regained his sight, his body shook, and he realized that what appeared in front of him was a Buddhist hall—the place where the ancestors of the Gong family worshiped Buddha every day.

He looked around and saw Gong Wan.The other party's expression was astonished, and he looked around in panic, but his eyes passed through Ye Mofan, and his eyes fell on a farther place, obviously he couldn't see him.

This Buddhist hall was built by Gong Wan after she left the Gong family, so it was completely unfamiliar to her.

She retreated from the Buddhist hall, and found that the scenery around her was not the same as the palace house she knew. Just as she was about to run away and look for a place she was familiar with, she suddenly heard the sound of wooden fish in the Buddhist hall.

Someone hit the wooden fish with a mallet, making a long and distant sound.

As if bewitched, she unconsciously stepped into the Buddhist hall again.

Amid the lingering incense, an old woman with white hair stood in the Buddhist hall and offered three pillars of incense to the compassionate Guanyin statue.

The Great Compassionate Bodhisattva is sympathetic to heaven and earth, with benevolent eyebrows and kind eyes, which makes the old woman's cold expression and stern temperament, especially the scar on the left side of the old woman's face, which makes her look extraordinarily cruel and ruthless.

"Gong Huanyan!" Mrs. Qianmian exclaimed, and immediately covered her mouth, her eyes filled with horror.Although she has lived in the Unreal Valley for many years, she knows what her rival in love looks like now, and she recognizes him at a glance.

But the old woman didn't look at her, she still stared straight at the portrait of Avalokitesvara in the Buddhist hall, crossing this painting, looking at another treasure hidden by her.

"Gu Youzhi, if I knew today, would you still have betrayed me?" The old woman sneered, "I'm tired, come out and beat my legs."

A ball of ink floated out from the gap between the portrait and the wall, and gathered into a human form. It was Gu Youzhi who became the fairy in the painting after his death.

His expression was numb, his eyes were lifeless, like a lifeless puppet.But he bent down obediently, and beat the opponent's legs evenly with both hands, obviously beating the legs for the patriarch of the Gong family. This kind of humiliation of the painting lord did not seldom be obedient.

Gong Wan's tears fell instantly.

She cried like pear blossoms and rain, but frightened by the prestige of the ancestors of the Gong family, she didn't even dare to say a word.Where dare to step forward to stop?Just so silently weeping, his expression aroused pity.

Ye Mofan looked cold when he saw this scene.Out of the corner of his eye, he caught another figure. He turned his head and found that it was his uncle Gu Youzhi.The other party also watched this scene, but their eyes were all focused on Gong Wan's reflection.

"Enough." The patriarch of the Gong family said, the leg-thumper stopped immediately, and waited for the next order without moving.

The patriarch of the Gong family stretched out his hand to pinch the fairy's chin in the painting, raised his unparalleled handsome face, brushed his fingertips against the skin that did not have the normal temperature of a human, and said coldly: "When will you recover your sanity and know how to resist the deity? Where is it?" Something went wrong?"

The fairy in the painting has a dull expression and doesn't say a word.

Ye Mofan cast a strange look at Gu Youzhi, who had conjured up this scene: so the uncle and the patriarch of the Gong family usually get along like this?

Gu Youzhi gave him an indifferent look.

Ye Mofan made eye contact again and said: Uncle, is it really okay to blackmail yourself like this?

Gu Youzhi was unmoved.

The patriarch of the Gong family seemed to be disgusted with the communication that had never responded, so he got up and waved his sleeves, knocking the fairy in the painting to the ground, and left with a cold face.

Until this moment, Gong Wan put down her hand covering her mouth.Only then did he have the courage to go forward and help his lover whom he had admired for a hundred years.

"Youzhi! Youzhi—how are you doing? How could Gong Huanyan treat you like this?" She asked anxiously.But even though the fairy in the painting was lifted up by her, his eyes were still blank and he didn't say a word.

"How could this be?" Gong Wan said distressedly.She couldn't distinguish between dreams and reality, and in the world of paintings, she couldn't normally think about whether everything that happened in front of her was reasonable.

At this time, Ye Mofan noticed that his uncle had made a move.

Gu Youzhi stepped forward and merged with the fairy in the painting, his absent-minded eyes finally had charm, replacing the phantom he had conjured up.

"Gong Wan, you shouldn't come." Gu Youzhi whispered softly, "I'm already dead. She said that you were buried in the belly of a wolf, and you are already dead. You, like me, were made into a fairy in the painting by Gong Huanyan Yet?"

"The fairy in the painting..." Gong Wan also came from a family of calligraphy and painting, so of course she knew what the fairy in the painting was.She clutched her heart, her heart ached so badly that she couldn't breathe, "Youzhi, I hurt you, I'm sorry for you!"

Gu Youzhi looked down at the woman with a broken expression, and said gently, "What did you do? Speak slowly and tell me everything."

His voice has a strange power, which can make people who have lost their minds want to confide everything they know.This is the ability that Immortal in Painting can display in its own field.
