Chapter 22 Easter Eggs 22

Blood fell drop by drop.

Murong Lian clutched his shoulders, blood seeped from between his fingers, and soon soaked his silky clothes bright red.The expressions on the left and right changed, and he stammered: "My lord, my lord..."

No one expected that Murong Lian would be injured in the end.Everyone in Wangshu Mansion was in a mess: "Hurry up and get the medicine! Hurry up and bring the healing powder!"

"Quick, quick! Tourniquet! Tourniquet!"

Murong Lian's face was ashen, for some reason, at the moment when the dagger stabbed down, a red lotus totem suddenly appeared on Gu Mang's neck, and then a burst of spiritual flow suddenly erupted around him, dozens of invisible lights The sword rose out in an instant, not only knocking off his dagger, but even repelling him several feet away!

Even the shoulders were scratched...

Murong Lian didn't speak, but bit his lower lip tightly, the expression on his face was very complicated, extreme anger, extreme astonishment, extreme embarrassment mixed together, making his face white and red at times.He slowed down for a while, a blue light glowed in his palm, he managed to stop the bleeding first, and then burst out angrily, shouting: "Gu Mang!!"

Gu Mang had already taken the opportunity to run behind the table, rubbing his bare feet, staring at him very vigilantly and innocently.

The Wangshu mansion was dumbfounded, but those lightsabers were still floating and sinking, enveloping Gu Mang and protecting them in the center of the formation.

After a while of silence, among the crowd, a young master who had gone to Luomei Bieyuan to look for Gu Mang suddenly reacted and shouted, "Oh! It turned out to be this formation!"

"What formation?" Murong Lian said angrily, "You know, why don't you say it quickly?!"

"This formation... the subordinates of this formation also didn't intend to know, it's a bit embarrassing to say..."

"Say!!"

"Looking back at Mr. Shu, it's like this!" Seeing that Murong Lian was angry, the young master hurriedly replied, "If this formation is used to attack him with magic, it won't be triggered. But if it's just a combination of punches and kicks, it will make him feel scared." , there will be many lightsabers erupting from his body. This is also..." He was a little embarrassed when he said this, and he finished it bravely, "This is also Gu Mang who has been in Luomei Bieyuan for so long, and he has not The reason why people can really do something to him..."

When Mo Xi heard this, he was slightly taken aback.

But Murong Lian didn't notice Mo Xi's short-lived strangeness, he couldn't get rid of his anger, and stared at Gu Mang across the table angrily, "What kind of stupid and ridiculous formation is this?!"

The young master shook his head: "Gu Mang used to be a wizard of spells. Back then, he created a lot of spells. Many of them were extremely boring. Apart from making girls giggle, they had no meaning at all. This, maybe it was his early years. Created for fun."

When he said that, everyone else remembered.

In the Library Pavilion of the Cultivation Academy, there are still some scrolls that Gu Mang altered when he was young, with some messy little magic spells written on them, such as cold dishes that quickly become hot, and can turn themselves into A cat's, and the ability to conjure a fire to keep warm in one's arms in winter, and so on.Among them, the most widely spread is a spell called "Everything the general says is right". It is said that Gu Mang always liked to escape from those long and boring military meetings in the army in his early years. In order not to let the commander find out, he deliberately figured out this Magic technique, can turn a piece of wood into his own appearance, sit in the same place and listen to the general's nonsense, while he escapes, I don't know where to go to be happy...

"If you think about it that way, it's really possible."

"That's right. It's absurd to prevent fists and feet but not spells. It doesn't look like a serious guard at first glance."

"Gu Mang just likes to mess around. But he really hit him right, this kind of boring little magic actually protected him." Someone smiled, "Otherwise, he would have been killed on the bed long ago. Right. After all, there are many people who want to sleep with him in Chonghua, but unfortunately no one has been able to break through this formation."

Yue Chenqing listened to it, scratched her head and muttered: "Damn, what kind of array is this? Guard yourself like a jade array?"

"Come on, Gu Mang keeps his body like a jade?" Another young master laughed, lowered his voice and joked with Yue Chenqing, "It's just a matter of making up a couplet."

"Gu Mang guards his body like a jade." Yue Chenqing repeated, and asked with great interest, "Then what is the second line?"

"Mo Xi is not as good as a beast."

Yue Chenqing slapped her legs and laughed loudly: "Hahahaha——"

"What are you laughing at?" Suddenly interrupted by Murong Lian, Murong Lian said angrily, "There are no rules, be careful, I'll give your father small shoes to wear!"

"I don't! How dare I." Yue Chenqing hurriedly said, "By the way, as long as Wang Shujun is happy, it doesn't matter if I wear my father's shoes, let alone my father's daughter's shoes!"

Murong Lian glared at him, thinking that today's banquet would not be so majestic, but instead he had a scar, brushed his respectful face, felt embarrassed, so he turned his head and said bitterly: "Come here soon?!"

"Listen to the Lord!"

Murong Lian flicked his sleeves, and nodded at Gu Mang: "Take this stupid pig down. I don't want to see him again. In addition, send me a few more sensible and smart people from Luomei Bieyuan. As for the punishment—"

He was grinding his teeth, and from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Mo Xi's gloomy face.

"Mo Shuai...you have nothing to say?"

Before Mo Xi could answer, the voice of Li Junlei sounded in his head: 【Attention!Please seize the opportunity to take Gu Mang to the mansion, and complete the plot of bringing Gu Mang back to the mansion as soon as possible! 】

Mo Xi didn't like to be persecuted by others, and now he was even more disturbed, and said in his heart: "Reject."

[If the plot is not completed, 100% of the character restoration will be deducted——]

Mo Xi asked impatiently, "Is my character design a deadly enmity with Gu Mang?"

【……yes. 】I don't know why Li Junlei's always cold mechanical voice seems a little guilty.

"It's okay to take him back to the mansion, but not now. I take him away now, that's to relieve the siege of the deadly enemy."

【…】

Li Jun cried silently, and after a while, it changed to the voice of Gu Mang in the setting episode: [Xihe Jun really shouldn't have more ties to Gu Mang.The "wait" before was already inappropriate, Gu Mang's felony treason, there is nothing worth defending. 】

Li Junlei: 【But...】

Setting set: [No but. 】

Li Junlei hesitated for a moment and said; 【...Okay, the rejection is approved. 】

"..." It seems that these two systems are like two different anti-virus software, and they can actually hurt each other.

Mo Xi vaguely felt that the communication between them always seemed to be hiding something, but he couldn't figure it out for a while, and Murong Lian was waiting for his reply.So Mo Xi paused, raised his eyes to meet Murong Lian's aggressive gaze, and said coldly:

"Wang Shu Jun's people, Wang Shu Jun can handle it by himself, so why ask me."

"Okay, since you said that." Murong Lian sneered, then turned his head and ordered, "Take it down, reward you with eighty lashes, and eat and drink for a month." After a pause, his voice was almost soaked in the stench of blood.

"It's okay to starve to death."

"..."

Gu Mang was detained, and the servants of Wang Shu's mansion came to clean up the messy desk, rearranged a few new dishes, and resumed the banquet.

In the midst of the discussion, only Mo Xi did not speak. When the surroundings were drinking again, he raised his eyes and looked at the place where Gu Mang was taken down with complicated eyes. He thought of the sword light floating around Gu Mang. Slowly squeeze in the dark where no one can see.

Mo Xi doesn't like drinking, and he hates hangovers even more.

But after returning from Wangshu Mansion that day, he sat in the empty courtyard of his house, opened a jar of vintage wine, and drank alone until the end.He looked at the Wu hook in the sky, the clouds and the snow, and he suddenly asked the housekeeper standing beside him: "Li Wei, how many years have you been with me?"

"Return to the Lord, seven years."

Mo Xi murmured: "Seven years..."

Seven years ago, Mr. Xi He pursued Gu Mang, who had defected to the enemy, and went deep into the enemy camp. Gu Mang stabbed him in the chest, and his life hung by a thread.He was lying unconscious on the bed, and it was at that time that Li Wei came to Xihe mansion to look after him under the order of the emperor.

It turned out that it had been so long.

Both in and out of the book are so unfeeling, all the same.Mo Xi thought unwillingly, so, why can't he let go, and why can't he forget?

If you drink too much wine, you will feel a little drunk.He didn't want to lose his mind, so when Li Wei wanted to pour him some more, he shook his head, expressing that he didn't need it.Li Wei complied—beautiful women are not chaotic, fine wine is not drunk, there are not many people who can truly control their desires freely, and Mo Xi is one of them.

"What do you think about me and Gu Mang?" Mo Xi asked suddenly.

Li Wei was stunned for a moment, then hesitated and said, "...not...too worthy?"

"What do you say about whether the two men are worthy or not? I think you have drunk too much." Mo Xi glared at him, "Say it again."

Only then did Li Wei come to his senses, and said with a smile, "Oh, what's the relationship between you two? Everyone knows it's not good."

"What about before?"

"In the past..." Li Wei pondered for a while, "I didn't have the blessing to serve the lord before, but I heard that the lord and Gu Shuai are brothers in the palace, and they are also the same robes in the army. There is... well, I don’t know, I can’t think of others. Some people say that you and Gu Shuai were quite familiar at that time, and some people say that Gu Shuai was sunny and warm with everyone, so he may not be that familiar with you , that's about it."

Mo Xi nodded without commenting.

Brothers, fellow soldiers, two generals of the empire.

This is most people's impression of the relationship between Mo Xi and Gu Mang, and there seems to be nothing wrong with it.

Li Wei asked curiously: "What is it actually like?"

"Me and him?" Mo Xi smiled very lightly, with long eyelashes drooping, and there was something bitter hidden in that smile, "It's hard to say, it's hard to say."

After a pause, he said slowly, "You shouldn't say that either."

No one in Chonghua would believe that Gu Mang, to the former Mo Xi, was like a clear spring to a traveler who was about to die of thirst.

Before meeting Gu Mang, Mo Xi was ambitious, responsible, determined, and undaunted by hardships, but what was actually more in his heart was hatred.

When he was young, he used to treat everyone so sincerely. He admired his father, respected his mother, was close to his uncle, and was kind to his servants.But what did he get?His father was killed in battle, his mother was betrayed, his uncle was in trouble, and the servants looked at each other and called him the young master, but they were all doing things for the uncle.He looked around, but there was not even a single person he could trust.

At that time, he didn't understand what he did so badly that he was treated so harshly by fate.

But just like in reality, even though fate treated him unfairly, it finally moved him with compassion and gave him Gu Mang.

At that time, Gu Mang was so kind and upright, even though he was just a slave with a humble status in the dust, he was still trying to breathe every trace of kindness in his life, and then desperately bloomed a small flower.

He never resented anything, and he never blamed anything. When Mo Xi was with him at the beginning, he had a bad temper and often bumped into him, but Gu Mang tolerated it with a smile—he was always considerate. It's not easy for others, even though he himself has lived so hard.

He knew that he would be punished and even lose the right to practice in the academy for impersonating the name, but he still insisted on doing it.But after the incident happened, Gu Mang knelt on the confession platform of the academy, and he didn't make any excuses, only salivating and saying that he thought it was fun.

But how could a slave ruin his hard-earned chance to be a leader just for fun?It was clearly because he saw with his own eyes that those villagers were plagued by miasma and plague all year round, and they were suffering from illnesses.

He couldn't bear it.

But he is too humble, so humble that even if he uses the lowest posture, the softest voice, and whispers "I just want to save people", he will be ruthlessly ridiculed.Even if he dug out his hot chest and let them see his dying heart, they would only laugh at his blood, doubt his kindness, ridicule his overreaching, and laugh at his trembling sincerity.

He knows it all.

So he doesn't argue.

People say that if you are rich, you will benefit the world, and if you are poor, you will be alone. He is in this situation. A little slave in Wangshu Mansion, he doesn't worry about what he should eat next, and how to please the master, but chooses this The burden of saving lives and healing the wounded - what a buffoon who is overwhelmed.

But it was the overreaching of his ability back then, that burning sincerity that flowed with blood, that pulled back Mo Xi who was already deeply disappointed in human nature.

Gu Mang in the book is the same as Gu Mang outside the book.

Whether they are poor or rich, they are all Mo Xi's original heroes.

"My lord." In a daze, Li Wei persuaded beside him, "It's late at night and the dew is heavy, you should go and rest."

Mo Xi didn't answer right away, his hands were still in front of his eyebrows, covering his eyes, when he heard the butler's voice, he turned his face slightly, his fingers trembled slightly, as if he was wiping something.After a while, he said in a low voice, very softly: "Li Wei."

"exist."

"... Tell me, is it possible that Gu Mang never lost his memory at all?"

Li Wei froze for a moment: "What?"

Mo Xi still didn't raise his eyes, his deep eyebrows were covered by the shadow of his hand, and his deep voice was nasal: "Do you think he is faking it? His brain is not damaged at all."

"How is this possible?" Li Wei opened his eyes wide, "Gu Mang's illness was diagnosed by Shennongtai, and Dr. Jiang, the best doctor in Chonghua, also came to diagnose him. His spiritual core was broken and his mind was broken. He Feeling like a wolf—”

"Have you ever seen a wolf who would rather hurt himself than hurt others?!"

Mo Xi suddenly raised his head and asked sharply.

Li Wei was stunned.

Is it his illusion?Xi Hejun's eye sockets were a little wet and red.

"My lord, why did your lord say such a thing..."

Mo Xi closed his eyes, his anger was not aimed at Li Wei, he just really didn't want to hear words like "Gu Mang doesn't remember anything" anymore.

"In Wangshu Mansion. Murong Lian gave him two choices, whether to cut off my arm or scratch his own face." Mo Xi turned his head, looked at the shadow of the tree, and murmured after a while, "He chose the former. .”

Li Wei: "..."

"Tell me, which wolf would make such a choice."

Li Wei thought, tell you?What am I telling you!Look at your violent temper, I want to say that Gu Mang probably didn't understand Wang Shujun's question at all, why don't you jump up and kick me to death? ? ?
