The villain always thinks I'm stupid

Ye Mingjue almost couldn't hold back his mind, thinking over and over what the pheasant-like monster that Bai Lian said that day was.

But what he saw at that time was only the scorched corpse, without even looking at a feather, so he couldn't easily make a judgment.

Just at this time, the only deacon with a high cultivation level was called out of the door, and only some Dharma guardian disciples at the fourth and fifth ranks of silver lotus were left present. Ye Mingjue immediately seized the time to send a voice transmission to Bai Lian: "Are you sure you will be in the mountains that day?" Roasted chicken?"

"Of course." Bai Lian looked at him inexplicably, "Don't I know what a chicken looks like?"

Ye Mingjue thought about it, and felt that he should be worrying too much, anyway, Bai Lian is not so stupid that he can't even tell the difference between a chicken and a bird.

He turned around calmly, still biting his original point of view: "Sorry, I have no impression."

"Is that so..." The disciples of the guardian team really didn't notice the secret conversation between the two, and seeing Ye Mingjue's uprightness, and his words were firm and unambiguous, he couldn't help but believe it, "Since you said that, Then I will trust you for the time being, don't worry, if you didn't do it, we will investigate and give you justice."

Only then did Ye MingJue feel better: "There are so many disciples in the sect, why do you only suspect us?"

The disciples of the guardian team hesitated for a while, but did not hide it: "Look here."

After finishing speaking, he sent the transparent ball that he had been holding in his hand forward with extreme care, as if the ball in his hand was some kind of precious treasure.

Even Ye Mingjue, who likes to read a lot, can't tell the efficacy of all the treasures in this world, just like this one in front of him, the ordinary-looking ball seems to contain powerful aura.

Ye Mingjue leaned over to look curiously, but he saw a strange layer of mist emerging from the originally transparent sphere, and the mist became thicker and permeated the entire sphere, until finally, the ever-changing changes became invisible. Silhouettes of two little people.

It was exactly what Ye Mingjue and Bai Lian looked like.

Ye Mingjue didn't have time to be surprised, but he saw that this scene was very familiar. He and Bai Lian walked out of the woods side by side, turning their heads to say something from time to time. Bai Lian smiled and threw away a burnt wooden stick, and the wooden stick The stick... seems to be the tool used for the barbecue that day.

"This is the residual memory we found near the Wucai Xuanfeng, and the two of you are among them."

The disciples of the guardian team explained, "This memory mirror can reflect the scenes in reality through some special things. The memory shows that you are indeed the most likely to have seen the five-colored black phoenix, so you will understand."

"So that's how it is." Ye Mingjue was secretly interested in Jade Lotus Gate, who didn't expect such a treasure, and took a few extra glances from the corner of his eye.

"We are simply a disaster for no reason." Bai Lian muttered dissatisfiedly.

Ye MingJue regained his composure a bit, frowned and said, "Only the two of us?"

"The other memories have not been collected yet." The disciples of the guardian team took back the memory mirror. "But don't worry, the situation has already begun. As long as the memory is collected, the criminal will be revealed."

At this point, the interrogation probably came to an end. The deacon, who was not interested in the conversation in the room, finally walked back slowly, asked a few casual questions, and then waved his hand to retreat.

He never believed that Ye Mingjue and the others were criminals, so he didn't make things too difficult for Ye Mingjue and the others.

Before leaving, Ye MingJue could still clearly hear the unabashed conversation between him and his disciple:

"Sure enough, it's useless. The Colorful Xuanfeng itself is a fifth-order monster. With the two of them's cultivation, how can they beat it? It's good if they don't get killed."

"You're right." Facing the law enforcement, the disciples of the guardian team were half respectful and half flattering, "However, the five-colored phoenix is ​​much smaller than birds and monsters, and it is easier to be regarded as a chicken. Make a nest on the ground, if you sneak attack while it is napping, maybe you will succeed with one blow..."

Their voices gradually drifted away, but Ye MingJue's stepping figure suddenly froze in place, without moving for a long time.

Bai Lian yawned lazily as she passed by him, but he grabbed her by the collar.

Turning his head to look, Ye Mingjue's face was so dark that it could almost drip water: "...tell me about that chicken you roasted."

"Why are you still mentioning this?" Bai Lian looked over in confusion, and had no choice but to spread her hands at Ye Mingjue's stern eyebrows, "The body is so big, you have seen it too, as for the others I It's not clear if you die with one sword strike."

"What about the appearance?" Ye MingJue asked, "The color of the feathers?"

Bai Lian squeezed her chin in distress: "It seems to be a little red, a little yellow, with a little green mixed in..."

Ye Mingjue: "...five colors?"

"That's right." Bai Lian's eyes lit up immediately, "You can guess it without seeing it, as expected of you, so smart."

"..." Ye MingJue glanced at him with painful eyes, then suddenly raised his hand to rub the center of his brows, "What is the name of the monster they asked about?"

Bai Lian: "Five-Colored Xuanfeng."

Ye MingJue: "Repeat the first two words twice."

Bai Lian: "Five colors, five... colors... five colors?!"

Seeing a trace of shock finally appear on his face, Ye MingJue couldn't help taking a deep breath: "I never thought that the murderer is really you."

She didn't expect that Bai Lian really couldn't tell the difference between a chicken and a bird!

Just now he asserted so earnestly and loudly that he was not the murderer, and now his face is almost swollen from the slap.

"Brother Ye." Bai Lian grasped his hand, and said four heavy words affectionately: "We share weal and woe."

"We agreed, don't forget."

Thinking of the agreement they made when they entered the sect together, Ye Mingjue: "..."

Ye Mingjue's eyes were gloomy, he kept thinking about a question, how could he have sold himself so easily back then.

Cutting off the thought of pushing Bai Lian to take the blame that just surfaced in his heart, Ye Mingjue tried to calm down for a while, before realizing that no matter whether he admits it or denies it, in short, he and Bai Lian are bound. If one has an accident, the other cannot get rid of the relationship.

Now that the matter has come to this point, rather than blaming and regretting, it is better to find a solution. Ye Mingjue walked up and down a little annoyed, and finally gritted his teeth: "If you want to keep this matter from being exposed, you must find a scapegoat. Or destroy the memory mirror."

"But the memory mirror can reflect the past scenes, so it is very difficult to find a scapegoat."

But what he failed to say was that given the preciousness of a treasure like the Memory Mirror, the possibility of destroying it was even lower than finding a scapegoat.

"I don't know who made the Mirror of Memory." He couldn't help but a cold light appeared in his eyes, "Hmph, it's unnecessary!"

"..."

The curvature of Bai Lian's face became even deeper.

But that doesn't mean he's in a good mood, only the system knows that whenever Bai Lian shows such an expression, it's often when the other party's anger is strong.

"It seems that he is quite dissatisfied with the magic weapon I have trained." Bai Lian also spoke softly at this time.

The system calmly explained: "Anyone who is driven into a desperate situation by this kind of magic weapon will be so angry that he wants to kill the person who has practiced the magic weapon."

"Really." Bai Lian's expression became a little more relaxed, "I really enjoyed watching it."

As long as she can see Ye Mingjue's expression like this, Bai Lian will be satisfied and won't care about those little things anymore.

The system asked curiously, "Did you know it would become like this?"

"How could it be?" Bai Lian's smile remained unchanged, "It's really a coincidence, and I don't know how to predict the future. Who would have thought that just roasting a monster would cause such a big trouble."

System: "Then if you knew in advance...?"

Bai Lian smiled: "Then I will definitely kill more monsters to cheer up Ye Mingjue."

"..."

The system stopped talking because of the stomach ache, but Bai Lian suggested to Ye Mingjue in a refreshed manner: "Since they are going to collect memories, why don't we destroy the memories first, and let them return without success?"

Ye Mingjue's eyes lit up: "Do you know the method of using the mirror?"

Bai Lian nodded: "It can probably be guessed, but we don't need to know everything, just destroying one area is enough."

Ye MingJue couldn't help but stand upright with his body facing him, with great anticipation for his suggestion: "Which area?"

Bai Lian: "Forest area."

Ye Mingjue: "..."

Bai Lian: "Set the fire to burn down the forest, not to mention looking for memories, all evidence of existence will be wiped out."

"..." Ye Mingjue's eyelids twitched. He always thought that he was a villain, and Bai Lian was a typical representative of kindness. Lian's method was shockingly simple and rude.

"Your idea...is very effective." Ye Mingjue opened his mouth with difficulty, "But we are lurking in Yulianmen, so we must keep a low profile in everything."

Bai Lian clearly gave a thumbs up: "I understand, we will gather in the forest at night and keep a low profile!"

Ye Mingjue felt that Bai Lian might have a big misunderstanding of being low-key, but it was also his idea to go to the forest at night.

Of course, instead of setting fire to it, he went to see if the mirror existed. If his guess was correct, it would take a long time for the mirror to reproduce the scene, and it was very likely that the mirror was still in the woods.

Not wanting to talk to Bai Lian for now, Ye Mingjue nodded perfunctorily: "Gather at night."

When night fell, Ye Mingjue sneaked out of the dormitory and rushed to the meeting place.

Along the way, he checked his surroundings many times, but he didn't find anyone staring at him. It seemed that they were really not included as suspects.

But when we got near the forest, we saw some guards standing outside the forest, as if they were monitoring whether anyone entered.

There are not many people in the guardian team, and they can always find opportunities to enter the woods. Ye Mingjue nodded to Bai Lian: "Separate your actions, don't be discovered."

Seeming to be a little worried, he added: "If you are discovered, kill all the witnesses... knock them out, and leave them to me."

The consequences of entrusting him to him can be imagined, Ye Mingjue did not bluntly say to kill, even if he was very tolerant of Bai Lian.

After giving Bai Lian a few more communication talismans, Ye Mingjue and Bai Lian proceeded cautiously towards opposite places.

Ye Mingjue doesn't know what's going on with Bai Lian, but anyway, his side is full of difficulties. Fortunately, with his wisdom and calmness, he finally managed to break through the layers of guards and came to the inside of the forest.

Patting the layer of dust that fell on his outer robe, Ye Mingjue heaved a sigh of relief, wondering whether Bai Lian's side had been exposed for such a difficult time, and at the same time felt that the forest was very quiet and did not seem to have caused a conflict .

He was about to use the messenger talisman to test him out, when suddenly under the moonlight, he vaguely felt a figure shaking. Ye Mingjue was startled, and quickly turned sideways to hide behind the tree trunk, only looking at the person coming from the corner of his eye.

But the more he looked at it, the more he realized that this figure looked familiar, and finally stepped out speechlessly:

"When did you arrive?"

Bai Lian's porcelain-white face appeared in his field of vision with a smile, and he waved his hands without any tension: "I've been waiting for a long time, and you're finally here."

Ye MingJue paused: "You avoided those Dharma Guardian disciples so quickly?"

"Is it difficult?" Bai Lian innocently blinked her eyes, "There are only two or three people here anyway, so I just walked in."

"..."

Ye Mingjue had a heart attack, he found that in terms of luck, he was always the worst one.

Compared with him, Bai Lian's luck is nothing short of a miracle, and he even felt faint envy.

At this time, Ye Mingjue suddenly saw something that seemed to be held in Bai Lian's hand, and he would nibble on it from time to time. Under the shadow of a dim tree, the thing he was holding was black and oval, and he couldn't help wondering: " That is?"

"Eat." Bai Lian answered in line with his personality, took out another one from the storage bag, and handed it to Ye Mingjue, "It tastes good, come and taste it too."

Still eating at such a dangerous moment, Ye Mingjue was very helpless. His heart was big, and he silently complained about being a fool, but he took it naturally and took a sip.

The fresh and tender meat made him feel a little better, and he raised his chin towards Bai Lian: "Go ahead, do you still remember the place where you killed the monster last time?"

"Of course." Bai Lian walked forward with high spirits.

Just as Ye MingJue was relieved to keep up, he heard him say: "—I don't know."

"..."

Bai Lian replied with a righteous face: "It's been so long, and it's still at night, how could I remember. But it doesn't matter, you won't go wrong if you follow me."

Ye MingJue was puzzled: "Where did you get your confidence?"

"Because I'm very lucky, even if I walk casually, I can reach my destination, so I don't have to worry about it."

Thinking about his bad luck, Ye Mingjue gave up the idea of ​​actively finding the way, and decided to ask Bai Lian to find the way for him first.

As a result, the two walked blindly in the forest for a while, and they really found a clue. The dead leaves that were piled together to make a fire that day appeared in front of them with the moonlight.

Ye Mingjue touched the scorched ground, nodded to Bai Lian, Bai Lian smiled complacently, and continued to walk through the jungle.

In a patch of grass that was difficult to walk on, Bai Lian stopped abruptly, and calmly stood there looking around.

Ye MingJue thought he was judging the distance, so he took two steps forward without thinking.

"Be careful going forward." Bai Lian suddenly reminded.

Ye MingJue never let down his vigilance along the way. Hearing this, he just nodded lightly, and with one kick, he suddenly stepped on something soft and slippery, and a terrifying murderous aura hit the back of his neck.

Ye Mingjue decisively summoned the flying sword to cut it down, and at the same time quickly retreated to the rear. When he took a closer look, there were poisonous snakes hovering in the grass, staring straight at him with weird red eyes, and kept spitting out letters.

"I told you to be careful." Bai Lian sighed deeply, "Why did you step on it anyway? This will startle these snakes."

Ye MingJue gave him a hard look, "Next time you can directly tell me what's ahead."

Bai Lian showed a helpless and doting smile, as if saying yes, since you don't have eyes, I'll take the initiative to remind you, Ye Mingjue took a deep breath and turned his head away.

"What's the matter, why are there so many snakes?" The densely packed black snakes below were all black snakes, and those eyes shining brightly in the night even Ye Mingjue felt his scalp go numb, and subconsciously frowned, "Could it be with this snake?" related to the events of the past few days."

"It should be." Bai Lian looked very calm, "Someone deliberately put it here."

Thinking of those disciples whose seven orifices were bleeding after being bitten by snake venom, Ye MingJue reminded: "You can't be bitten, this is a poisonous snake."

Seeing Bai Lian nod his head, Ye MingJue began to murmur to himself puzzledly: "What did this man want to do by putting the snake here?"

"I don't know what I'm doing." Bai Lian suddenly turned his palms up, gathering a raging flame, "But I'm very grateful to him, and I can have a full meal again."

"... full meal." Ye MingJue's heart skipped a beat, looking at the flames he had a bad feeling, "You want to eat them?"

When he thought of that scene, he felt a little queasy, and couldn't help but took two steps back, and grabbed Bai Lian's arm: "Stop it, no matter what you're thinking, absolutely not."

"Why?" Bai Lian blinked her innocent eyes and looked at him, "Don't you think it's delicious too?"

"........."

His movements gradually became stiff, Ye Mingjue's expression suddenly changed when he remembered the food Bai Lian handed him just now.

Is it possible... vomit——

The author has something to say:

Bai Lian: Brother Ye?Could it be... have it?

Ye Mingjue: Get out!

Cough, because the weather is fine, we will stop tomorrow for another day.
