The pinnacle of magic

"Great Wall, here I come!"

Shi Rui glanced at the magician who sat up from the bed alive and well, it seems that the "compensation" after yesterday's performance did not consume much of his energy.

"Well honey, I know the Great Wall isn't here. I mean, we can finally relax! Kate helped me plan the next five days, and you help me see if she missed anything Is the place good?" The magician exhaled, "It's been a long time since we had such a long vacation! You said that if we take a plane to see the Great Wall, it shouldn't take much time, right?"

"It's not us, it's you." Shi Rui paused, playing with the magician's fingers and said, "Clifford, I'm sorry, I have to take some time to deal with my private affairs."

"It's that private matter that you can go home with me after you finish it?" The magician was in a low mood, obviously not very satisfied with Shi Rui's arrangement.

"That's a private matter that I feel the need to tell you before I finish it." Shi Rui smiled frankly.

The magician was immediately ignited by this sentence.He has been waiting for an opportunity to go further into Shi Rui's heart, and this sentence almost means that Shi Rui acquiesced in his approach. "Wait!" He stood up from the bed, "I'll brush my teeth first, let's go to the living room to discuss in detail after breakfast." He felt that the current disheveled state was not suitable for talking about "serious business".

Shi Rui looked at the back of the anxiously running out of the bedroom and shook his head.He stood up, dressed neatly, washed up absently, and then finished breakfast with the magician as quickly as possible.Until the moment he sat down on the sofa in the living room, he still had some doubts about whether it was right to tell the magician about this past.

As if aware of his hesitation, the magician straightened his back, looked at him seriously and said, "I'm ready. Honey, you can say it now. Even if you are really a descendant of aliens, I can take it too! I love you and will love you more every day!"

The ice blue eyes revealed incomparable sincerity.Shi Rui's mind moved.He approached the magician, pressed his hand on his thigh, stuck out his tongue, and licked from the side of the neck to the back of the magician's ear.

"What about the murderer? If I were a murderer, would you still plan to stay with me?" He breathed into the magician's ear.

The magician's back stiffened, and then his body suddenly relaxed.He leaned his body on Shi Rui's shoulder, turned his head and said with a smile: "I don't believe that you will take the life of an innocent person for no reason. Rui, I have to say that you are the most upright person I have ever met. I Will always 'pay' for you."

Shi Rui lowered his gaze.

"That's my sister, twin sister." He said after a long time.

As if feeling the deep sadness in Shi Rui, the magician kissed his chin. "Go on. I promise to be the best listener I can be."

Shi Rui smiled.

"I said that I was born with the toughest training. My sister was the same as me. For the first ten years or so of life, we had to master the various skills and training goals that our mother taught us at each stage. Because one of us will inherit the position of mother and become the leader of a special religious group when we grow up. Our sect has a history of more than 1000 and [-] years. Although the sect is complicated and often suppressed by those in power, it has always been It exists tenaciously to this day. The leaders of the sect, men are called Ming Wang, and women are called Wu Sheng Lao Mu. The leaders of each generation have incredible abilities. The only problem is that Ming Wang and Wu Sheng Lao Mu cannot exist at the same time. That is Said, between me and my sister, there can only be one person who can inherit the position of leader."

"Then what about the remaining one?" The magician vaguely felt that this was the crux of the matter.

"There will be a duel at the end, and only the one who wins will survive." Shi Rui's voice was terribly indifferent.

The magician couldn't help frowning. "So, you were coerced and killed by your mother when you were a minor? I don't think it's your fault." He turned his palm over and held Shi Rui's hand firmly.

"No. I'm the one who lost." Shi Rui sighed, and smiled at the surprised magician, "Although he's only a few minutes younger than me, Ah Xuan's personality is quite different from mine. I was born indifferent, and I couldn’t get close to anyone except my mother and sister. And my mother is not only my master, but also the leader of a religion. I admire her more than my children. The attitude of people thousands of miles away is still chattering in my ears from time to time. At that time, I felt that being able to feel a family affection from my sister was the only proof that I was still alive. So since I was a child, I let her, Protect her, even if I am afraid of the majesty of my mother, I still try my best to help her be lazy in training. When I knew that the two of us might only survive one, I planned to leave this opportunity to her without much thought. If I live If I come down, no one will walk into my heart in the future, and I will not be close to anyone. Ah Xuan is different, if she survives, she will definitely live a more wonderful life than me, and she will definitely remember me for the rest of her life."

Shi Rui's tone was calm, but the magician was terrified.Although he knew that Shi Rui was the last survivor, he could hardly bear Shi Rui's thought of giving up his life.Only by firmly holding this person's hand and feeling the heat from the palm of his hand can he feel a little calm.

"Fortunately, the duel took place in a big room, only the two of us could enter, and no one was watching the battle. Not long after the duel started, I injured myself. Because I knew that if I was injured by Ah Xuan's hand, She must be very uncomfortable. Before losing consciousness, I saw her rushing up to hug me and burst into tears. When I woke up, the wound was bandaged. My mother told me that the reason for the separation of life and death was for the sake of Let's do our best. Now that Ah Xuan has won, she will pass the position of head teacher to Ah Xuan in a month. I was lying on the bed, a little dazed. Then Ah Xuan came in."

A trace of doubt flashed across Shi Rui's face.He pursed his lips: "She said a lot of things to me, crying and laughing at the same time. I gradually feel that this result is the best. When Ah Xuan succeeds, I can go out for a walk, and then You don’t need to be confined to one place. But Ah Xuan suddenly lost his temper. She said that she wanted me to be under one person and above ten thousand people. I didn’t understand what she meant at first, until more than a month later, her authority It gradually increased, and my injury healed a lot. She spoke to me again, and I realized..." Shi Rui paused, looked at the magician's hands that were tightly held with him, and said, "So she She wants me to be her husband."

"What?!" the magician exclaimed.

"Ah Xuan told me that she has convinced my mother that I have left. She will find someone to change my appearance and voice, and I will be able to live with a new identity in a few years. Not only does she want me to be her husband , but also let me become the person who is second only to her in the church. I was taken aback by her appearance, and then I had a dispute with her. I want to leave that place. I have never seen Ah Xuan like that, and I feel that I have never known this sister in the past 20 years. When I came back to my senses, I found that Ah Xuan was lying on the ground without a sound. I was wrong Kill her!"

Shi Rui closed his eyes and opened them after a long time. "We are twins, and we seem to have a special connection with each other. Usually, as long as she doesn't talk in my ear for a day, I don't feel used to it. But I just killed my other in the world like this." Halfway. I was terrified, fled in a daze, and then fled to the other side of the ocean. I just want to stay as far away from that place as possible, as far away as possible, so far away that I can’t remember it at all. When I get off the boat, I will Even the smuggler dared not ask me for the rest of the money. He said that I was a complete lunatic, and anyone who got close to me would be beaten to death or injured by me. I came to a completely different country, I wandered the streets for several months. Until one day, when I saw my own shadow on the glass window, I suddenly felt that I couldn’t go on like this. Ah Xuan is dead, and I must live on her behalf. My appearance, as long as A little change and you can't tell the difference between male and female. I was determined to pay half my life for this sin. Then I met Johnny and became his temporary helper. I made a fortune and started in this country Studies. During the five years, I recalled over and over again how Ah Xuan would react to these things, playing two different people during the day and night. You will know what happened afterwards. Clifford, I have to tell you, before you I never thought that someone could be as close to me as you are."

The magician looked at Shi Rui's face, and suddenly found that this mysterious and powerful lover in his eyes had once been at a loss.He couldn't help smiling: "It's my honor." He paused and asked: "Then what are you going to do now? Will we be discovered by your former religious group here now?"

"So what if we find out?" Shi Rui raised the corners of his lips, "I originally planned to come back and end this matter completely. According to the religious rules, I had to go back to be punished first when I fled back then. As for the matter of A Xuan, I believe my mother will have a judgment , At most two crimes are punished together. I must leave that place openly and go home with you."

"Hey! That can only be regarded as manslaughter at best! Let's fly back now, shall we?" The magician glanced at Shi Rui's performance, and realized that he probably couldn't convince this person, so he pouted, "At least, you have to Take me with you."

"No. Clifford, have fun for a few days. I need to adjust myself to the peak state in the hotel first, and then go. I will be back soon, I promise." Shi Rui touched his chin, "Now , show me the itinerary Kate arranged for you! By the way, the crabs here are very famous, you can try them.”

After saying everything, the mood suddenly became unprecedentedly relaxed.Shi Rui smiled, feeling a little more confident of returning to this person alive.
