The villain's junior brother turned out to have a crush on me

Meng Chen was only 13 years old when he joined Emperor Taixuanzong.

Although he is young, he has already experienced too many things that he shouldn't have experienced at this age, and he is used to seeing all kinds of things in the world. Therefore, when Zhong Lijing brought him to Pei Yuze and said that this is your elder brother, Meng Chen I knew that this senior brother was not easy to get along with.

The other party looked about sixteen or seventeen, with a calm and measured demeanor, a friendly smile on his face, and called him "Junior Brother Meng" in a warm voice.

But in those luxurious Danfeng eyes, there is clearly no shadow of him as "Junior Brother Meng".

Meng Chen knew it well, so in the days to come, he never tried to accuse Pei Yuze, but just stayed quietly in his yard alone, reading, meditating, and practicing sword day and night.Until one day a few months later, a secret realm in Taixuanzong was opened, and all disciples who had established a foundation or above were eligible to participate.Before entering the secret realm, the elder Yu Nian told everyone that the disciples who cleared the secret realm can get a marrow washing pill, which can be used to wash the marrow and cut bones, improve the qualifications, and greatly improve the realm.

This is a very precious top-grade elixir. All the disciples were so excited that they rushed into the secret realm impatiently.Although Meng Chen was also very excited, he knew that with his current level, there was a high probability that he would not be able to get along with Xisui Pill.

He started five months ago, and has successfully transitioned from Qi refining to foundation building, to the third level of foundation building.Several elders, including the head of the sect, expressed their amazement at his cultivation speed, but Meng Chen felt that he was still far behind.There are tens of thousands of masters in the world, and the master has already reached the top. He is just at the beginning, and he really doesn't think he has anything to be proud of.

With the mentality of experiencing himself, Meng Chen entered the secret realm.He has always been cautious and observant, so he has avoided many traps, and because of his pure and tenacious Taoist heart, he has successfully passed several questions about the situation, and actually came to the last level of the secret realm by mistake.

This is a place similar to a deep well. The light inside is dim, surrounded by uneven earth walls. Looking up, you can see a round sky, which should be the exit to the outside world.Meng Chen Yujian flew upwards, but the distance between the bottom of the well and the exit seemed to be only a dozen meters, but he couldn't fly out no matter what.He had to fall back to the ground and try to find another exit.

It wasn't until then that he discovered that there was another person in the deep well. Because the light at the bottom of the well was too dark, and the other person was standing in the corner, he didn't see the other person at the first time.

Moreover, this is an acquaintance.

"Eldest brother," he greeted with some hesitation, "are you here too?"

"Yes." Pei Yuze came out from the shadows, smiled at him gently, and said, "I came earlier than you, and tried to go out with the sword, but it didn't work. It seems that this test is not so easy. "

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a slightly old voice in the air: "It's useless. If you want to leave here, there is only one way..."

Meng Chen: "What?"

"Kill the other party." The voice was calm and almost cold, "Kill the other party and you can go out, and you can get the marrow washing pill, as well as countless secret treasures. Otherwise, the two of you will be trapped forever." die here..."

The voice disappeared, and there was a dead silence in the deep well. Meng Chen turned his head slowly and met Pei Yuze's eyes.

The other party's expression was still gentle, but for some reason, Meng Chen instinctively felt a chill when he looked at those phoenix eyes.

"There are often bewitching monsters in secret realms, so don't listen to them." After a moment of silence, Pei Yuze said, "Come and see if there is another way to get out."

Meng Chen calmly breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly checked with Pei Yuze carefully.They checked every nook and cranny of the well, and tried every conceivable spell, but they still couldn't find a way out.What's more frightening is that in this square well, their physical functions seem to have declined greatly. Bi Guogu's body began to feel hungry and thirsty, and his spirit became exhausted.

Twelve hours passed.

Three days have passed.

Five days passed...they couldn't hold on anymore.

The strength in his body had been exhausted, and he couldn't even stand upright. The two teenagers sat on the dirt wall, Pei Yuze looked at him quietly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Meng Chen struggled to raise his hand, untied the sword from his waist, and threw it at the person opposite.

Pei Yuze's expression changed slightly.

"Brother," Meng Chen said softly, his voice was hoarse and weak due to lack of water, "you go out."

In fact, if there is another choice, Meng Chen doesn't want to give up his life easily.

In the short 13 years, he has endured countless hardships and encountered many more desperate situations than he is now, but he has always struggled with his last breath to climb back from the death line.

As long as he could survive, he would not give up even the smallest hope.But the premise is that it does not violate his principles and bottom line.

If he had to kill another human being to have a chance at survival, he'd rather not.

Pei Yuze was not moved by his behavior, but gradually took on a sarcastic expression, and said coldly: "It's beyond stupid. The world of cultivation is a place where the weak prey on the strong. With your temperament, why would Master like you?"

His words and deeds at this moment are completely opposite to what he has always shown, but Meng Chen is not surprised at all.He smiled slightly and closed his eyes.

Brother is right.He is indecisive, not cruel enough, and perhaps really not suitable to survive in the world of comprehension that is more cruel than the mortal world.But let him kill a person who has no grievances or enmities with him, and he is still his senior brother, he really can't do it.

If you can't even have a clear conscience in your life, what's the point?

When he heard Pei Yuze pick up the long sword and walk towards him, he didn't feel fear and fear in his heart, but felt a strange sense of relaxation.

Finally, I don't have to think about how to live every day.It seems that there is nothing in this world worthy of his nostalgia, and no one will miss him. If he leaves here, it may be a good ending...

Just as he was thinking aimlessly, something was lightly thrown from his leg. Meng Chen opened his eyes in a daze, and found that it was his saber.

"Get up." Pei Yuze said, "check the bottom of the well again."

Meng Chen was slightly stunned, wanting to laugh and cry at the same time, quickly got up with all his strength, and followed Pei Yuze to investigate again.The amazing thing is that this time, they actually made a new discovery very quickly - there was a piece of earth wall behind which was empty, and when they smashed it with a sword handle, a small hole collapsed.It's just that the hole is too narrow, Meng Chen can get out with his 13-year-old stature, but Pei Yuze can't.

"Brother, I'm going out to call for help, you wait here for me!" Meng Chen was overjoyed to find the vitality, but he didn't notice that Pei Yuze's hand holding the sword tightened slightly, and only after a while did he softly "hmm".

Meng Chen immediately drilled out along the hole, and then came to another space.This is a treasure house, and anyone who sees the scene in front of them will probably be shocked and unable to take their eyes off - there are countless gold and silver jewels, top-grade magic tools, and top-grade exercises, and the golden light is shimmering and fairy-like, almost blinding people Eye.And in the middle of all the treasures is the marrow washing pill that makes countless people flock to it. It is covered with a faint purple light, bewitching those who come to grab it in their hands.

But Meng Chen had no time to pay attention to him, he was busy shouting for help, and after shouting for a while, he found that no one came, so he had no choice but to dig out a few plates of exquisite dim sum among all the treasures, and wrapped the dim sum in his arms with his outer robe , and then drilled back along the same path.

He and Pei Yuze ate snacks, gathered up some strength, and used a sword to widen the opening of the cave. The two came to the treasure house together, and took off the marrow washing pill at the same time.

The illusion in front of them disappeared, and seeing the smiling face of Sect Master Taixuan and the elders, Meng Chen and Pei Yuze realized that they were one of the few people who had truly cleared the secret realm.

Forty percent of the disciples who entered the secret realm chose to kill each other at the bottom of the well, and although the remaining fifty percent did not raise their butcher knives at their companions, one of them, after arriving at the treasure house, was immediately confused by the treasure pill and chose to abandon his companions. Swallow the marrow washing pill alone.Only less than [-]% of the people, abiding by morality in front of the god of death, sticking to their hearts in front of temptation, truly passed the trial of the secret realm.

The disciples who chose to kill each other were all expelled from Taixuanzong, and the disciples who failed to resist the temptation were ashamed after learning the truth, and went to Siguoya to repent.And the disciples who passed the trial each got a marrow washing pill.

Although he was very happy to improve his cultivation, what made Meng Chen even more happy was the change in Pei Yuze's attitude towards him.

His elder brother seemed to have finally let go of all his worries and guards, and accepted him as his junior.There were still so few people on Tianji Peak, but Meng Chen no longer felt lonely.Every day, he practiced sword practice with his senior brother, discussed homework together, traveled down the mountain together, and even dared to be lazy together, skipping the boring school history class, slipping to the small town down the mountain to visit the temple fair...

He smiled more and more, and his temperament was finally no longer so cautious. He spent the happiest time since he was born.

And these times were given to him by Pei Yuze.

Pei Yuze is a competent senior brother with profound knowledge, superb swordsmanship, astronomy, geography, spells and spell formations. Compared with the master Zhong Lijing, he taught Meng Chen more things.

Besides, he is also a reliable elder brother. Every time he goes down the mountain and encounters danger on a mission, he will always protect Meng Chen with his sword.

Meng Chen often thought that even if it was his biological brother, Pei Yuze would not treat him so well.

until later.

Until Pei Yuze held the sword in his own hand, one sword after another, mercilessly crippled his limbs, tendons, and crippled his hard-working cultivation.

He was in so much pain that he was about to die, cold sweat mixed with fresh blood flowed down, staining the snow-white robe on his body into a mess.The physical pain is second, and the most deadly is the humiliation of dignity and the destruction of spirit.His eyes turned black, and he tried his best not to pass out, with blood surging in his throat, and asked every word, "...why?"

Pei Yuze hugged his trembling body into his arms, and kissed the cold sweat oozing from his forehead pitifully.

"Because of this," he pressed his lips against his ear, whispering softly as usual, "Achen is just my own Achen."
