After dark, Pei Zhao woke up.

There is a small window open in the side hall, and the wind blows in gently, blowing the gauze curtain.

The room is full of pearls swaying.

Su Yang was sitting on a low stool beside the couch, reading a book.

When he heard the movement, Yubai stretched out his fingers, and tucked the corner of the quilt for Pei Zhao, with a gentle tone: "Are you awake?"

Pei Zhao huddled under the blanket and responded muffledly.

Su Yang said: "Want to listen to stories told by the teacher?"

Once upon a time in Yuechen Mountain, every night, Su Yang would sit by the bed like this and tell Pei Zhao a story to lull him to sleep.

Pei Zhao just woke up at this moment, and he didn't understand why the master wanted to tell him a story again, but he nodded obediently: "I think."

Su Yang raised his hand and scratched the tip of his nose.

Like the beginning of every story, he said: "A long time ago, there was a pair of brothers who lived in a shabby house in the countryside. Their parents died early, and the older brother worked outside to help the neighbors, earning a meager income. In order to support myself and my younger brother Xiao Zhao.”

Pei Zhao opened his eyes slightly: "Master, why does this brother have the same name as mine?"

"Just listen to it and you'll know."

Su Yang continued, "Later, by chance, my brother was spotted by a passing fairy, who said that he was a genius who was born in the world, and brought him back to the fairy gate. Before leaving, my brother entrusted Xiao Zhao to Neighbors take care of them, even though they are in Xianmen, they will send silver taels back every month."

"Once, he went down to the mortal world to practice together with his junior brother from the same school. Because he missed Xiao Zhao, he took him to his side. Later..."

Su Yang made a fool of himself: "Guess what?"

Pei Zhao frowned, and began to think hard: "Afterwards, they lived happily together?"

"wrong."

"Later, they all died?"

"Nor."

Su Yang lowered her eyes.

What Pei Zhao said was not entirely correct, but in fact it was not too far off.

Of the three people in the story, one is dead, one is crazy, and the other is thrown into a fairy prison, where he will never stand up again.

The pearly light in the hall swayed, cutting off his dark eyelash silhouette.

Pei Zhao didn't notice Su Yang's expression, and hugged his arm coquettishly: "Master, Ah Zhao can't guess, so just tell me."

"Okay." Su Yang responded, and said slowly, "Later, they practiced together in the mortal world. Xiao Zhao fell in love with his elder brother's fellow apprentice, and happily chased him every day. But, this junior and Just like his brother, he cultivates the way of ruthlessness, not to be emotional. So he rejected Xiao Zhao, and the more Xiao Zhao clings to him, the more indifferent he will be."

"Later, the senior brother's experience was over and he returned to the fairy gate. For some reason, not long after the senior brother returned to the fairy gate, he became mad and was sent to the demon world by the suzerain of the fairy gate. The junior brother inherited the mantle of the original senior brother, cultivated the avenue and soared Become a fairy, become a fairy official in the fairy court of the upper world."

Pei Zhao asked, "What about Xiao Zhao?"

"Xiao Zhao." Su Yang patted his head affectionately, "Xiao Zhao learned that his brother was thrown into the demon world, so he tried every means to find him. The gate of the demon world is guarded by immortal officials, so it is not easy to break in, so he spent I waited for a long time, and when I found someone, I found out that my brother has become the master of the demon world."

Pei Zhao was stunned.

Then he came to his senses and opened his eyes wide: "The Lord of the Demon Realm, isn't it just..."

Su Yang: "Yes, it's the one you said looks fierce."

Pei Zhao: "..."

He is dull, but not stupid.Hearing this, he contacted Master Bai Ri and asked him to call him that brother, and he could already guess that Xiao Zhao in the story was probably himself.

"But..." Pei Zhao frowned, "But Master, I don't have the slightest impression of what you said."

"Of course you won't remember." Su Yang said, "Because you are already dead."

"I am dead?"

"Yes, he died in the scuffle between the immortal and demon worlds thousands of years ago."

"But, since I'm dead, why am I still here?"

Su Yang lowered his eyes, "It's the younger brother who ascended to immortality. He was in charge of the ancient book pavilion in the fairy court. Later, he found a forbidden technique that can reshape the soul and let you be reborn."

Pei Zhao shrank back under the blanket, "But according to what you said, he hates me, so why did he resurrect me?"

"I don't know even if I'm a teacher." Su Yang shrugged, "People's hearts are complicated, who can tell clearly."

"So, that Demon Lord is really my brother?"

Su Yang nodded.

Pei Zhao said embarrassingly: "But he looks really fierce, as if he doesn't want to talk to me."

Su Yang chuckled: "He just looks a little cold, but he actually loves you very much."

"If you don't believe me, look,"

He pointed to the small open window, "There is a separate dormitory over there, he allocated it to you, and you can live there in the future without worrying about anything."

Pei Zhao looked there.

It was dark outside the window, only occasionally a snow-like silvery flower fell.

So he knew that the master was just pointing at him casually.

Pei Zhao asked, "What about Master, where does Master live?"

"I live here as a teacher."

"Then Azhao can still see Master every day?"

"Of course. You can come over at any time, and I will visit you when you are free as a teacher."

Pei Zhao curled the corners of his mouth reassuringly.

Outside the hall, Xiang Yao came in: "Master, the little Highness has already taken care of everything, should we send him there now?"

Su Yang nodded: "Just now."

When Pei Zhao got out of bed, Su Yang gently covered him with a thick fur-collared cloak, wrapping him tightly.

Xiang Yao was holding the lantern in front, and the three of them walked towards the next bedroom together.Pei Zhao held Su Yang's hand, and suddenly asked: "Master, do you like my brother?"

Su Yang looked down at him: "Yes."

"Then you guys now..." Pei Zhao smiled shyly, "Hey, how are you doing now? Where is the progress?"

"What's the progress?" Su Yang smiled and nodded his forehead, "What's in my little head."

"Azhao is just curious."

"I'm not on good terms with him." Su Yang said, "We just talked for a while, and we broke up unhappy."

Pei Zhao said "ah".

Later, along the way, he didn't speak again, his head was lowered, he didn't know what he was thinking.

When he arrived at the sleeping hall, there were already two attendants arranged by the demon king for Pei Zhao. Su Yang checked around, told them a few words, and left.

When he returned, he didn't go directly to the side hall, but walked to the bathroom in the bedroom.

He lives in the side hall of Pei Lin's bedroom, very close to the main hall, and the bathroom is on the other side.When passing by the main hall, Su Yang saw a bright light inside, because Ye Mingzhu asked him to move, and the candles were lit right now.

Presumably Pei Lin has come back and is inside right now.

Su Yang didn't go in.

On the way, I happened to meet a waiter head-on. Hearing that the master was going to take a bath, he said with concern: "You just came today, and you haven't changed your clothes yet? Do you need me to help you get ready?"

Hearing him mention it, Su Yang seemed to think of something, pondered for a moment, then smiled lightly: "No, I have."

The waiter didn't say anything more, he bowed and left.

In the main hall, Pei Lin looked through the suspicious objects collected from the Yanzhu Pavilion one by one.

The follower Ling Shuang walked in, saluted and said: "Report to the lord, the priest has delivered the cakes, do you want to eat now or..."

Pei Lin didn't raise her eyes: "Send it to the side hall."

Ling Shuang was slightly taken aback.

He reacted quickly, answered "Yes", and went to do so.

Not long after, Ling Shuang delivered the things and came to report back.

Pei Lin had finished flipping through the items, and was about to step out of the palace gate, when she saw him asking casually, "That one in the side hall, what are you doing?"

Ling Shuang: "Return to the Lord, he is not in the palace."

"Not in the palace." Pei Lin frowned slightly, "Where did you go?"

"It is said that I went to see the little Highness off before, but I haven't come back yet."

He frowned: "Understood, you step back."

"Yes."

Ling Shuang turned to leave, and another waiter brought a set of neatly folded black robes, and followed behind Pei Lin.

When we arrived at the entrance of the bathroom, we saw that the carved door was tightly closed, and there was a gleam of light and warm water vapor from the crack of the door.Pei Lin stopped and waved the waiter back.

Pushing open the door, the steaming heat blows in, and the mist in the pool curls up.

This bathhouse belongs to the Demon Lord's bedroom, and normally only Pei Lin would bathe here, but at this time, in the hazy white smoke, a thin figure could be seen at the farthest edge of the pool.

Because of the distance, the back is a bit blurred, only a piece of snow white.

Pei Lin withdrew her gaze, and closed the palace door expressionlessly.

He didn't go over there, but just took off his clothes and went into the pool nearby. After bathing in the pool, he got up and put on his clothes properly.

Up to this moment, the figure from the back was still lying there, as if he had fallen asleep.

Pei Lin walked to the door of the hall, put her hand on the doorknob, and did not pull it in for a long time.

half an hour.

He closed his eyes and withdrew his hand.

Pei Lin turned around and walked towards the depths of the bathroom.

As he got closer, that figure also became clear in his sight.Thin, fair and clean, with beautiful butterfly bones.

He had his eyes closed, but he seemed to hear footsteps, his eyelashes fluttered, and when he opened his eyes, the falling mist wet them.

Su Yang's skin was slightly red in the white smoke. He raised his face, his beautiful eyebrows and eyes were hazy, his black hair was wet and stuck to his snow-white shoulders, and water vapor condensed into beads, sliding down along the delicate texture.

Pei Lin's Adam's apple slipped slightly, and she silently looked away: "Haven't you finished washing?"

"finished Wash."

"Why don't you leave?"

Hearing him ask, Su Yang said slowly: "As you can see, I have no clothes to wear."

Pei Lin: "..."

He turned his face away, a helpless smile flashed in his eyes.

Pei Lin turned her back to Su Yang, and handed back the clothes she had just changed.

Su Yang didn't answer.

Pei Lin: "Why, do you want me to help you change your clothes?"

Su Yang's beautiful eyebrows were slightly frowned, and he stepped back, causing ripples in the pool: "Did you wear your clothes for an autopsy?"

Pei Lin snapped her fingers, picked up the clothes and smelled them.

It was indeed a bit of a corpse.

He thought for a while: "Shall I go get a new one?"

But Su Yang said: "It doesn't need to be so troublesome."

Pei Lin raised her eyebrows.When he turned around, he saw Su Yang holding onto the edge of the pool with both hands, looking up at himself with gentle and moist eyes: "Pei Xuechi, you're wearing... two pieces, aren't you?"
