There is only a small cave in the tall cliff, backed by a huge stone wall, so that the punished can better "face the wall and think about the past".

People come to deliver food once a day, and there is no place to stay around such a high cliff. If there is no one to respond, the detainees cannot escape from it.

Xie Wuchen sat cross-legged since he came in, facing the wall in meditation, as if facing the wall and thinking about his past.Feng Cuixue was very pleased with this: "..."

However, after all, facing the wall can't be all the time, Xie Wuchen's back injury is still not healed, he needs to take medicine every day, and when taking medicine, he needs to put his hands behind his back, his posture is always a bit awkward.This is just a small cave, no matter what two people do, they can't avoid each other's eyes, so it is inevitable that they will be a little embarrassed.

Seeing Xie Wuchen carrying his back to a corner by himself, taking off his upper body clothes halfway, and applying medicine in an awkward posture, Feng Zuixue endured and endured, and finally couldn't help but walked over, took the medicine bottle in Xie Wuchen's hand, "I help you."

Xie Wuchen paused slightly, pursed his lips and gave an "um".

Although he had seen it before, after Xie Wuchen turned his back, Feng Cuixue frowned because of the injury on his back.

Three bruises with deep visible bones ran obliquely across Xie Wuchen's entire back from top to bottom. Although the blood was no longer bleeding, the raised flesh was still hideous and terrifying.

His eyes sank slightly, Feng Zuixue lowered his head and dug out a spoonful of medicine from the medicine bottle, his movements softened when it touched Xie Wuchen's skin, but the medicine was strong, Xie Wuchen still groaned when it touched the wound With a sound.

The wind made the snow move.

Xie Wuchen said: "Nothing, you continue."

Feng Zuixue lowered his head and took the medicine again, and was silent for a while, but finally couldn't help feeling puzzled in his heart, and asked in a low voice, "Why did you save me?"

This question made Xie Wuchen puzzled, "What?"

"I said, why did you save me?" Don't you... don't you like me?

Because his back was facing Feng Zhuxue, so Feng Zhuxue couldn't see Xie Wuchen's expression, he only heard Xie Wuchen say: "You and I are from the same sect, I have to protect your safety."

At the end, Xie Wuchen said again, as if hearing what Feng Cuixue was saying, "It has nothing to do with my personal opinion of you."

Feng Cuixue let out a muffled laugh, "Personally...you are honest, well, you are really a good brother, if I am not your fellow student, but just an ordinary person, would you still save me?"

Xie Wuchen asked back; "What is the first rule of the Tianyan sect?"

"As a disciple of my generation, as a practitioner, we must bear in mind that it is our responsibility to subdue demons and demons, and eliminate violence and bring peace to the people. We must do our best to protect all living beings in the world." Feng Juxue suddenly understood what Xie Wuchen meant.

"Cultivators absorb the aura of heaven and earth to have the ability to surpass others. This is given to us by the way of heaven, and the ability comes with responsibility. No matter who is in danger, we have the responsibility to save it." Xie Wuchen said.

Feng Cuixue frowned, and laughed lowly, "Then you pleaded for me in front of the elder because—"

"I didn't plead for you." Xie Wuchen said: "We travel together, we are a whole, you have no discipline, even if you explain, you can't chase that monster. If something happens, who will save you."

"You don't need to save me." Feng Zuixue frowned.

"I know that you have outstanding self-confidence, and I am far inferior to you in eliminating demons, but have you ever thought about what to do if something happens and you are alone and helpless?" Xie Wuchen said: "Besides, you violated the discipline first, and the others If someone learns from others and leaves the team without permission to mess around during training, wouldn’t the Nuomen sect become a mess? The imitators... may not have your ability and luck—hiss—"

The hand on the back suddenly became heavy, and a burning pain forced Xie Wuchen to gasp.

Feng Zuixue withdrew his hand as if unconsciously, and suddenly realized, "Oh, I see, I am the chicken that scares the monkey."

Xie Wuchen: "...It's not what you think. Without rules, you should be punished. It's just that even though you left the team without authorization, it's to protect everyone, and you can't overdo it."

Feng Cuixue twitched the corners of her mouth, and said to herself that you are thinking too much, I don't want to protect everyone, I just don't want the monster to call an accomplice to get involved.

"However... how do you know that the Vermilion Ape Beast will take revenge and will attract its companions to take revenge?" Xie Wuchen said again: "I have read the illustrated book about the monsters in the school before, and there is not much mention about the Vermilion Ape Beast."

Feng Cuixue used the same rhetoric again, "I forgot which book I saw it in."

Xie Wuchen nodded, "Think about it carefully, this is a major discovery. If it is true, it will not only complete the demon book, but also prove your innocence in front of the elders."

The corner of Feng Zuixue's mouth twitched again.

His senior brother seems to be too serious.

Some are too serious, but in the seriousness, there are also some good intentions.

What kind of good intentions come from, Feng Cuixue can also see a thing or two from Xie Wuchen's words and deeds, maybe he thinks that he saved his fellow disciples during the training, and his character is not hopeless.

"I seem to understand a little bit..."

"Understand what?" Xie Wuchen asked.

Feng Cuixue was startled to realize that she had actually spoken her heart, shook her head, and put away the medicine bottle, "It's nothing, it's done."

He seemed to understand why Xiao Jiu always said that human beings are complex and simple, and they are the most interesting creatures.

For example, Brother Xie.

After that day, the two of them seem to have put aside the previous conflicts in a tacit understanding, and getting along is no longer as stiff and awkward as it used to be, or the cave is too small, and they can't see each other when they look down, and the two who have not known each other for more than a year are here Get to know each other within a month.

Shen Yupo will also sneak over when people are not paying attention, bring them some delicious meals, and then talk about it, the days of "thinking about the past" will not be so difficult.

One month ended soon. After leaving Siguoya, the group of colleagues who had come to plead for mercy were also locked up. They even held a welcome ceremony for the two of them. Naturally, Xie Wuchen was coldly reprimanded by Xie Wuchen. Meal, of course, these lawless teenagers don't take it to heart.

After thinking about going up and down the cliff, Xie Wuchen seemed to have changed back to the original ruthless senior brother, but it seemed that many things were different.

In the early spring, birds and cranes sang, young disciples came and went in the school field, and the wind drove the snow to practice the newly learned swordsmanship one by one. Xie Wuchen appeared from behind him and grabbed his wrist.

"Your sword moves are clean and neat, but the evil spirit is too strong. Such a sword move is very easy to break, and it is easy to be caught by a real master." After a winter, Xie Wuchen's stature has grown a bit taller , dressed in black clothes like black ink, holding his wrist, the two of them put their arms against each other, and the sword's momentum changed from evil to flat, clean and powerful.

"This trick is called 'Guiyuan'."

During the Mingxia season, the sound of cicadas was incessant. They competed swords in the sunny pine forest.

In the bright autumn night, Xie Wuchen found out that he and Shen Yupo were drinking secretly on the roof, but unexpectedly, Xie Wuchen didn't reprimand him. Feng Cuixue smiled and invited Xie Wuchen to come up and drink together. He didn't expect that Xie Wuchen would agree, but the other party was surprised They climbed onto the roof and watched the moon with them-although they still didn't drink.

On New Year's Eve at the end of winter, the Tianyan sect took a rest, and the whole sect was decorated with lights and festoons, filled with a festive atmosphere, not like the sect of cultivating immortals, but like a large family's house in the mortal world.

Shen Yupo made a fuss about posting couplets, begging for Ye Hong's calligraphy, and Ye Hong always doted on the only female disciple, so naturally he readily agreed.Therefore, Shoujian Peak, which is covered with snow all the year round, is also flourishingly decorated.

When he woke up the next day, there were two red seals under his pillow, one was given by Ye Hong, and the other...

Xie Wuchen's ears turned red, "I'm your senior brother, so I should give it to you logically."

Feng Cuixue let out a long cry, "But you didn't give it last year."

Xie Wuchen choked, "Then I'll make it up for you."

Feng Cuixue laughed, "That's not necessary, since senior brother said so this year, remember to give it to me in the future."

"Okay, give it every year." Xie Wuchen said.

Feng Cuixue gradually began to understand why Xiao Jiu was so attached to the world.

Or the bustling street market, or the quiet and elegant pine forest, or the classroom with the sound of reading books, or the joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys of ordinary people's homes, or the rock-solid Taoism of practitioners who seek knowledge and thirst for knowledge.It is full of vitality, Vientiane on earth.

He also gradually became interested in everything around him, or he was too depressed when he was young, and now he seems a bit fanatical when he rebounds. He loves food and clothing, and all pearly jewels. They are dazzling and beautiful, as if they can make his dark eyes The past and the future are illuminated in general.

But the heart-piercing butterfly fluttering its wings slightly reminds him all the time that he doesn't belong here.

He does not belong to the vibrant human world, nor even the lifeless demon world.

Otherwise, the heart-piercing butterfly that would kill him at any time would not have found a home in his chest.
