Brother, why is he like this?

After tossing for half a night, the sky is bright.Everyone in Gu Jing returned to the sect with the ghost-masked man, and only Shen Lingyuan and Ji Shaoyan were left in an instant.

When Ji Shaoyan came, he brought a food box with him, obviously he came early in the morning to deliver food to Shen Lingyuan.Now that the next fight is over, the food box is still on the ground, unaffected at all.

He carried the food box and followed Shen Lingyuan to the bamboo house. While opening it on the table, he took out the food one by one, while quietly scanning the room for a week.

His gaze rested on the bottom of the bed for a moment, then he retracted it calmly.

"The food is getting cold, I'll bring you some new ones."

"No, I don't have an appetite right now." Shen Lingyuan leaned against the bed and yawned.

Feeling a shadow falling in front of him while drowsy, he looked up in astonishment, and saw Ji Shaoyan looking down at him, and asked in a low voice: "Are you... in a bad mood?"

His expression seemed tense and uneasy.

Shen Lingyuan smiled and shook his head: "No, I'm just a little sleepy."

After being woken up in the middle of the night and going through a series of unimaginable and exhausting things, he is really tired now and can fall asleep anytime.

Ji Shaoyan didn't leave wisely.He stood there silently for a moment, then suddenly bent down.

After what happened last night, Shen Lingyuan was almost overshadowed by the excessive approach, and subconsciously leaned back to distance himself a little.

Ji Shaoyan froze, paused and continued, taking out a ring-shaped willow branch from the bottom of the bed.

He stared at the willow branch without speaking, his face was slightly gray.

"So it fell here." Shen Lingyuan said in surprise.

He took the willow branch, and the delicate branches wrapped around his wrist automatically.

Shen Lingyuan woke up in the bamboo hut and found that Xiao Liu was gone. He thought it was accidentally lost in a coma, but it turned out to have fallen under the bed.

Fortunately not lost.

He looked up at Ji Shaoyan: "Fortunately, you found it, thank you."

Ji Shaoyan looked into those smiling eyes, and said softly, "Is it something important to you?"

Shen Lingyuan smiled and fiddled with the willow leaves twice, "It was given by someone who is very important to me."

Hearing this, Ji Shaoyan's eyes darkened, and his fingers hidden in his sleeves curled up uncontrollably.

He thought... was thrown away by Shen Lingyuan.

Ji Shaoyan pursed his lips, as if he had made up his mind to say something, but when he looked up, he found that Shen Lingyuan had fallen asleep leaning against the bedpost.He didn't know whether it was disappointment or a sigh of relief. He stood there for a while, showing an inconspicuous smile, knelt down and gently took off Shen Lingyuan's shoes and socks, and carefully laid him flat on the bed so that he could sleep comfortably some.

Staring obsessively at Shen Lingyuan's sleeping face, Ji Shaoyan stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to touch his face, but stopped when he was about to touch it.

"Brother..."

He whispered softly, with an imperceptible tremor at the end.

The pain of Ni Lin being gouged out, the pain of waiting in fear, the unparalleled loneliness in the world, and the sincere love that has nowhere to rest.Since the day Shen Lingyuan disappeared, these emotions that have been haunting Ye Tan all the time have been restrained in the word "senior brother" and spit out gently.

Time goes back to last night.

After realizing the requiem incense in the room, Ye Tan couldn't believe it at first, and thought a little self-deprecatingly: Could it be that the delusions in his heart are already so serious that even the breath of requiem incense appeared in the hallucination?Then it feels wrong, the requiem incense is real.

Brother is back?

Once this idea arises, it can no longer be suppressed.Ye Tan's heart, which had been silent for a long time, jumped up uncontrollably. He tried his best to calm himself down, and then went out through the window, anxiously following the familiar breath that made his heart tremble all the way, finally in the faint morning light I saw the person I had been thinking about day and night.

Shen Lingyuan stood at the junction of light and darkness, exactly what he saw every time he was enchanted.

But it is no longer unreal.

Ye Tan almost cried with joy, and before the joy could rise, he was scared away by the belated memory.

What did I just do?Ye Tan thought in panic, what will senior brother think of me?

Before Shen Lingyuan could do anything, Ye Tan had already driven himself into the abyss of eternal doom, and unilaterally sentenced him to death.He was happy and sad for a while, and followed behind Shen Lingyuan in a daze, until Shen Lingyuan stopped in front of the bamboo house, and he also stopped.

Ye Tan didn't dare to show up, but at this moment, a boy in white shirt approached with a food box.With a thought, he separated half of the primordial spirit and attached it to the boy.

When the ghost-masked man made a move on Shen Lingyuan, his feeling of bewilderment immediately turned to anger from which he didn't know why, and he drew his sword and stabbed.

……

The head of the sect came to Ye Tan's room in person, and said loudly: "My lord, we have captured the evil demons, should we execute them?"

It was not about Ye Tan's business at first, he said "yes", and it's enough for everyone to shoot and break up.As a result, the head of the door waited for a while, and with a "squeak", the door was opened by Ye Tan.

He stepped out and said in a deep voice, "Where is the person?"

ah?His Holiness still wants to see it?Just take a look.

The head of Gu Jing brought Ye Tan to the main hall, and then asked his disciples to lift up the ghost-masked man who was tied up and passed out.

With a flick of Ye Tan's hand, the ghost-masked man woke up coughing.

"Bold monster, how did you kill my master?" The disciple of the murdered elder couldn't bear it, and was the first to shout out.

The Mozu opened his eyes and scanned the surroundings. After realizing his situation, he closed his eyes again, as if he didn't intend to speak.

"you--"

The little disciple was so angry that he drew his sword and was about to stab him, but was stopped by the headmaster raising his hand, and then turned to look at Ye Tan.

Ye Tan has been silent since he came to the main hall, but his icy aura cannot be ignored.At this moment, he raised his right hand, raised his index finger slightly, and a universe bag was picked out from the ghost-masked man's arms.

The face of the ghost-masked man suddenly changed.

Ye Tan took the Qiankun bag in his hand, and with a light swipe of his index finger, a hole was broken in the Qiankun bag, revealing a few scattered pieces of talisman paper and a blood orchid inside.

The little disciple exclaimed, he saw this kind of orchid on the night of Master's death!

Ye Tan recalled that when he caught the demon named Chang Cheng in Luzhou, he had such a blood orchid in his universe bag.They seem to have absorbed the spiritual power of the monks with blood orchids and stored them.

If it's for your own use, why bother?

In the end, Chang Cheng blew himself up in his dantian and died, but before he died, he struggled so much that it was obviously not his wish to blew himself up.

Is it Duoshe?Chang Cheng's cold breath before he blew himself up, as well as the look he looked at Shen Lingyuan, were indeed different from before.

These were all speculations that Shen Lingyuan told Ye Tan afterwards.

Ye Tan thought for a moment, put his slender hand on the top of the ghost-masked man's head, and the tyrannical spiritual power could not be refused.

"No one can take away from you now."

The voice was so cold that the ghost-masked man shuddered.

Ye Tan didn't say the second half of the sentence, but the ghost-masked man also heard it:

No one can take you away now, but if I exert a little force, you will die immediately.

So he didn't dare to disobey a little bit, and told the story of killing Elder Jindan.

To put it simply, he was ordered to collect the spiritual power of the monks everywhere, and he had to hand in the blood orchids that stored the spiritual power in full every month, otherwise he would be severely punished.He lurks in the Ancient Mirror Sect, and after seizing the elder's spiritual power, he originally wanted to find another chance to assassinate the head.Unexpectedly, on the night of the elder's death, he was bumped into by someone, startled the snake, and the ancient mirror faction was under martial law, so he hid in Mianshan and waited for the opportunity to strike again, until Shen Lingyuan broke his whereabouts and Ji Shaoyan rushed over when he wanted to kill people.

"Lie." Ye Tan said in a cold voice with force in his hand, "Who sent you here?"

It was clear that he took the initiative to go to Shen Lingyuan's residence to arrest people, but he said that he wanted to kill people because he was hit by Shen Lingyuan.

The ghost-masked man's face was pale from the pain, cold sweat dripped down drop by drop, but he gritted his teeth and didn't say a word.

Ye Tan suddenly let go.He saw that the ghost-faced man was not unwilling to speak, but was restrained and unable to speak out.

He simply knocked the ghost-faced man unconscious again.Ye Tan said to the head of Gu Jing: "Go to the mountain to search and see if he left any traces."

The master responded quickly.

……

Shen Lingyuan opened his eyes, saw the back of the boy in white in the room, almost thought it was Ye Tan in a trance.

When the young man heard the movement and turned his head, Shen Lingyuan saw his dark and clear eyes clearly, and then shook his head with a broken smile.

What was he thinking, why did he recognize the wrong person?

Shen Lingyuan sat up with his forehead supported.This sleep was too long, and my head was groggy.

From time to time, some human voices came from outside the window.

He listened carefully, as if looking for something.

Ji Shaoyan had already walked over, looking like he wanted to help Shen Lingyuan get up, but he frowned and didn't move.

Shen Lingyuan didn't care, and just asked casually: "What's wrong outside?"

Ji Shaoyan said indifferently: "I'm looking for any traces left by the ghost-masked man last night."

Then he opened the food box, "Master... are you hungry? Have something to eat?"

Shen Lingyuan's footsteps were a little vain, "I met this person once before, and I know where he used to hide." As he said that, he was about to walk out the door.

Ji Shaoyan frowned and pushed Shen Lingyuan to sit down at the table, and stuffed the chopsticks into his hands, "Don't worry about them."

Shen Lingyuan: "..."

Aren't these your fellow apprentices?How can you be so indifferent.

Ji Shaoyan, or Ye Tan, was indeed indifferent.

There are only two issues he cares about now. One is where Shen Lingyuan has been in the past five years. He was clearly a Nascent Soul before, why now he has no cultivation base, and even Kunwu is gone; the other is what is his relationship with this Ji Shaoyan? How did you meet him, and why did you live here with him.

Especially the fact that there was only one bed in the room made him very upset.

I can't tell why, but when I think of my brother lying on someone else's bed, I want to kill that person.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Gu Jing's disciples searching in the mountains to find the blood orchid that the ghost-masked man hadn't had time to remove, and reported it to the head.

The leader brought Xuelan to look for Ye Tan.

On the other side, "Ji Shaoyan" hated in his heart, with a cold face on his face, silent.

Shen Lingyuan stared at him for a moment, then said with a smile, "You look a lot like someone I know."

"Ji Shaoyan" moved in his heart, and somehow looked forward to it: "Who is it?"

Shen Lingyuan said softly: "My junior brother."

Then, as soon as the headmaster entered, he saw Ye Tan's icy aura dissipate, his brows and eyes curved into an indistinct smile, and the ice and snow melted for a while.

ah?This……

The head of Gu Jing was flattered.

How can the old man, He De, actually make Venerable Yuanying show his face?
