Master respects him by serving the devil

"Ah Qing, after I die, you will inherit the position of city lord." Shangguan Pei called out the city lord's seal and the inkstone of no return, and stuffed them into Shangguan Qing's hands.

But Shangguanqing shook his head again and again, and refused to say anything, just crying.

Shangguan Pei felt that he was running out of time, so he couldn't help but get angry and said: "Now there are only you and me left in Shangguan's family. From now on... from now on, when my brother is gone, only you will be left. If you don't care about Tianlan City, What should they do?"

Shangguanqing burst into tears, "Brother, I can't do it, I can't do it, don't leave me, I will take you back to the mansion, the elders will find a way to save you, if not, I will go to Zhuoguang Mountain..."

"What a silly boy." Shangguan Pei laughed angrily, and sighed helplessly. He wanted to stroke Shangguanqing's hair, but he didn't even have the strength to raise his hand.

Shangguanqing held his hand tightly with both hands, leaning her head closer.

Shangguan Pei's eyes closed lightly, and then opened again. The obsession for so many years seemed to be yesterday. He failed to revive Fanghua until his death, and he had no hope. .

"...If you don't want to inherit the position of the city lord, you can return the non-return inkstone to Furong, enclose the city lord's seal, and let the two cities merge. You have saved Yu Dan's life, so he shouldn't embarrass you, if... ..."

Shangguan Pei tilted his head and thought for a while, then sighed: "Forget it, after I die, you can go to Zhuoguang Mountain. These hypocrites will not embarrass you because of their face. You should live the life you want."

Shangguanqing didn't know how much he listened to what he said, but kept pressing on the wound on his wrist in an attempt to stop the bleeding.

But the blood continued to flow out, and Shangguanqing tore his robes, layering them on the wound.

Still couldn't stop the bleeding.

He was in a hurry and cried more and more wantonly.

Shangguan Pei felt that his mental power was fading more and more obviously, his head was dizzy, and he could hardly see clearly, but Shangguanqing still had a little touch in his hand, and his soul was about to leave his body.

Not much time left...

"Ah Qing, did you hear me talking?"

Shangguanqing nodded fiercely, his hand movements became weaker and weaker, he was in a hurry for a long time, he didn't do anything well, hated his incompetence, why didn't he cultivate immortality at the beginning?Why is there no spiritual power?Now he can't even stop his brother from leaving.

A voice in his heart asked him: Brother is dying, do you want to save him?

"No! No need for you! No need! I..."

But he felt that his brother's hand was gradually weakening, and it almost slipped from his palm. In his panic, he tightly grasped Shangguan Pei's already warm hand.

Brother, don't leave Ah Qing...

Please save brother...

Shangguanqing closed her eyes as if resigned to her fate, tears flowed down and dripped on the fingers of the two brothers.

The fingertips continuously poured spiritual power into Shangguan Pei's hands from Shangguan Qing's hands, and then traveled to Shangguan Pei's whole body.

Shangguan Pei, who had almost lost his will, woke up suddenly. He stared at the clasped palms in disbelief.

His younger brother has never practiced, so how can he have spiritual power?

Shangguanqing's face was caught in his clear sight. It was his younger brother. In person, there was no doubt that his face was moist and full of milk fat, but under the slowly raised eyelashes, there was a pair of playful eyes.

"Brother."

The voice belonged to his younger brother too, but it was a little more calm.

Shangguan Pei felt in a daze that this was his younger brother, with the same appearance and voice, but it was not. His younger brother was timid, weak, and a crybaby, but this person in front of him...

He wanted to push the person in front of him away, but it was his younger brother after all.

Will it be taken away?

He has so many enemies, countless people died unjustly in this cave, who is it?

He trembled and asked, "Who are you?"

A trace of innocence in a dress flashed in Shangguanqing's eyes, and he said aggrievedly: "Brother, I am your younger brother, Shangguanqing."

Appreciating Shangguan Pei's astonished expression, he suddenly slapped his forehead, grinned and said: "Yes, brother, I haven't seen me very much, and it's all because of that stupid boy who always occupies this body and won't let me out... ..."

"..."

Shangguanqing stared at the overlapping palms, smiled suddenly, and then withdrew her spiritual power.

Without the infusion of spiritual power, Pei almost fell down. His body is now a broken wooden barrel, and his vitality is like the water contained in it, passing away little by little. Continue to drain.

Shangguanqing said: "These spiritual powers are enough for elder brother to last until younger brother finishes telling the story."

"Brother, don't be confused. I have not been taken away. I am indeed a Shangguanqing. It's just that I was born later. I came to this world 13 years ago."

"I was born in the mansion of the lord of the city, under the shrine of the ancestral hall, brother...you should thank me, I saved your stupid brother, otherwise he would have died long ago with his stupid appearance."

After Shangguan Pei heard these words, he suddenly realized that he never took his brother's abnormal behavior to heart.

The child who was always wronged and cried and called him "brother" was his younger brother, and the thoughtful person in front of him was also his younger brother.

That was the case, and he didn't know how to react.

The abnormality in the past has a reasonable explanation at this moment.

Shangguan Pei closed his eyes and didn't want to look at him, his throat was choked, and he asked hoarsely, "13 years ago, the remains of my father and Mrs. Rong have not been found..."

Shangguanqing wrote lightly: "I ate."

Shangguan Pei said helplessly, "Those are your biological parents!"

"Yes." Shangguanqing said gratefully: "For Ah Qing, they are the greatest people. They gave birth to me and raised me. After death, they exchanged their useless bodies for a way to return to the world."

"Brother, you are not in the city, you don't know, the robbers from Furong are too fierce! They burn, kill, rape, and do all kinds of evil. If I hadn't pretended to be crazy and ate the flesh and blood of my parents, they would have killed me!"

"If I die, brother, you will have no relatives. I will be your only relative!"

Shangguan Pei didn't know whether to blame him or sympathize with him. Was what he did right or wrong?

Is it important?

It doesn't matter anymore, he has no right to blame his younger brother. Compared to him, his younger brother just wants to survive, and his younger brother has never had a life on his hands.

But Shangguanqing is different, he is a ghost crawled out of hell, there is no way to lead to the world, he kills resolutely, with the blood of countless innocent people on his hands.

What qualifications does he have to accuse others?

So, whatever!

Although they have two completely different personalities, they are still his younger brother.He just comforted himself that the dying person didn't want to sacrifice too much hatred and nothing he could ask for.

Thinking of seeing Fanghua, no matter whether the husband beats or scolds, he will be happy with it, and this alone is enough.

However, Shangguanqing did not intend to let him go.

He laughed and tore open Shangguan Pei's wound again, and said, "Brother, do you know how Mr. Fanghua drove west and passed away?"

Startled all over, Shangguan Pei suddenly opened his eyes and stared at him.

Shangguanqing seemed very satisfied with his reaction, he deliberately delayed, admiring the expression for a while, and then opened his mouth after a while.

"Brother, why is he looking at me with this expression? Naturally, Fanghua committed suicide. This matter has something to do with me, but it has nothing to do with me."

that day.

Shangguanqing carried the carved food box and searched for it for a while but didn't see his brother. He just bought hot pineapple cakes from the best pastry shop in the city. He carefully protected them and wanted to give them to his brother. Take the freshest first bite.

Originally, the guards in the mansion could not disclose the whereabouts of the city lord, but the person who asked was the young master after all.

Shangguanqing followed the direction guided by the guards and found the entrance of the stone chamber, which was behind the rockery in the garden.

As soon as he approached, he saw his elder brother coming out, with disheveled clothes, some inexplicable scars on his face, and dark clouds hanging under his eyes, he gave orders to the guards fiercely.

"Keep an eye on him! Don't let him die! Except for drinking water, no other food is allowed in."

The angry voice was so loud that Shangguanqing could hear it clearly from such a distance.

I can't help but wonder, what kind of person is so angry with my brother?

Prisoners in the past were never brought into the mansion, and the stone room under the garden was just a secret passage before, and it was never a place to hold prisoners.

Shangguanqing couldn't help being curious, he didn't call to stop Shangguan Pei, but silently waited for the people to leave, and then entered the secret room through the back door of another rockery.

"anyone there?"

Shangguanqing called out tentatively, and immediately heard the rustling sound of iron chains.

He took out the fire folder that he carried with him, and after lighting it up, on the stone bed in front of him, there was a thin man with disheveled clothes.

After lighting the candles on the table, the surroundings lit up, and he leaned forward to take a look again, amazed!

It was a man in a moon-white robe, with a thin body, scantily clad, and a haggard face that seemed to faint at any moment. From his neck to his chest, red marks, blood stains and hideous bruises were densely piled up.

But the man's eyes were covered with a narrow piece of cloth, so he couldn't see the expression clearly.

There is no dangerous aura about this person, and it can even be said to be gentle.I don't know what crime I committed, and I will be locked up here by my brother.

Shangguanqing tried to greet, "Are you okay?"

The man froze, and after reacting for a while, he asked in a hoarse voice, "... who?"

The voice was gentle and messy, but extremely weak.

"I... I passed by here." Noticing that Fanghua's ankle was wrapped with chains, he moved, and the chains made a crisp collision sound, Shangguanqing asked: "Brother... the city lord locked you here, are you What crime did you commit?"

"..."

Seeing that Fanghua didn't speak, Shangguanqing comforted: "You don't look like a bad person, the city lord won't make things difficult for you."

"..."

"What's wrong with your eyes? Can't you see?"

Fanghua nodded, but still did not speak.

Thinking of Shangguan Pei's instructions to the guards, the popularity in front of him was like a silk, probably he hadn't eaten for a long time, Shangguan Qing opened the carved food box, the pastries were still steaming hot, and the sweet and greasy aroma of pineapple cakes soon overflowed. Full of stone chambers.

Shangguanqing: "Do you want something to eat? The best pastry shop in the city makes it fresh. I waited early in the morning and bought the freshest one. Do you want to try it?"

Hearing that it was pineapple cake, the person on the stone bed trembled slightly, enduring the soreness all over his body, and forced himself to sit up.

Shangguanqing took out a piece and handed it to Fanghua.

The hot tentacles and the sweet fragrance stimulated the senses, and Fanghua couldn't help but want to vomit, but his stomach was empty, and he couldn't vomit anything.

Shangguan Pei was a little overwhelmed, he instinctively felt that Fanghua hadn't eaten for a long time, that's why he reacted so strongly.

He couldn't tell what crime this elegant man in front of him had committed, or if he offended his brother and was locked up here.

He didn't want to speculate about his brother.

Shangguanqing was at a loss and said: "Seeing that you haven't eaten for so long, I'll leave the pastries here and you can eat slowly. Don't say that I sent them."

He nodded, and Shangguanqing left in peace.

Fanghua slowly walked down the stone bed, moved to the stone table, and wanted to reach out to touch the food box, but his fingers accidentally touched the unextinguished candle, and he didn't react until the burning pain spread from his fingertips.

Today's Fanghua is tortured to the point where she almost loses her sense of pain.

He sat there in a daze for a long time before slowly putting the pineapple cake in his hand into his mouth to chew.

This pastry is very good, in fact, it is much better than what Fanghua used to make. While eating, memories slowly flooded into my heart.

……

He quickly finished eating the piece in his hand, and when he opened the food box to take it again, he touched something cold in his hand.

Fanghua froze for a moment, her fingertips trembling slightly.

If he guessed right, it should be...

When he went to touch it again, he confirmed his guess that the pastry shop in the city would give a silver knife to customers who bought a set of pastry, so that customers could cut the pastry.

I don't know if it was God's will or a coincidence, Fanghua held the knife and suddenly laughed at herself.

Shangguan Pei's demons were born from him, if he dies...

If he died, would Shangguan Pei get out of the hatred?

Fanghua felt that Shangguan Pei hated him to the core, and he could see how deep the hatred was from what he did to him!

Fanghua, who entered Shangguan Pei's dream, was very clear about what he saw. In Shangguan Pei's eyes, he had already equated him with the enemy.

In his life, he suffered a complete failure, both in heart and body, collapsed to the extreme.

No more hesitation, the silver thin blade pierced into the heart, and the blood trickled out...

He tore off the cloth covering his eyes, revealing two bottomless black holes, and smiled with relief, the picture was gentle and weird.

With a draw of the knife, the plasma burst out; with a wave of the sleeve, it was burned.

The candle fell down and burned from the food box, to his shoes, to the hem of his clothes, to the sweet and fragrant pineapple cakes, to Fanghua's miserable life in a hurry...

Eyes are full of fire.

Shangguan Pei came angrily, fear, fear, sadness, resentment... countless emotions had no place to vent.

There was a fiery red flame in his eyes...

Shangguanqing fiddled with the oil lamps on the altar that were arranged in the shape of the Big Dipper.

The flames flickered.

"Brother, you didn't even find a single corpse in the secret room. Do you think it was burned?"

Shangguanqing smiled brighter and brighter, like an obedient child, "Brother, I went in before entering the stone room. At that time, Mr. Fanghua was not dead yet, but he really wanted to die, and the flames caught him. legs, but he just didn't move.

Shangguanqing suddenly approached him, appreciating his expression, and slowly said word by word: "I stood in front of him and waited for the fire to burn him through. Guess what I saw?"
