Because in the past, injuries were inevitable, so Shen Wumian knew some simple methods of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. He pressed Chen Yi's calf with moderate force.
But no matter how comfortable it was, Chi Zhao didn't dare to let him press it. After feeling a little better, he quickly pulled his leg out, "Thank you, Uncle, I feel much better."
The weight in his hand lightened, and Shen Wumian didn't raise his head, but continued to look at the empty palm for two seconds before turning his eyes.
Chen Yi pursed his lips and looked at him with distrust and fear. This kind of gaze should not come from the eyes of the Nine-Five Lord.
Shen Wumian didn't say anything, and didn't do anything that didn't fit the plot. He left quickly, Chi Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, and then remembered the system that had been silent since he came back.
When I first came back, it was like a machine gun. It was talking a lot, and when I saw Shen Wumian, its machine gun went out. Don't ask, the system must have misunderstood.
Chi Zhao kindly explained: "It's not what you saw. I pulled the plot back. Don't worry, everything is still under my control now."
After saying this, the system didn't answer for a long time. Just when Chi Zhao thought the system wouldn't answer, he heard a very clear sigh.
Chi Zhao: "… "
"Don't you believe what I said? You can't believe it!"
Finally, the system replied to him.
[why?]
Chi Zhao was silent for a moment, "Because what I said is true! Don't you have a video, you can see it if you watch it?"
The system itself is no longer here, how could there be any video recordings? If it is, the main system is recording it. As a low-level system that just learned to go to work and neglected its duties, it does not have such advanced functions.
Anyway, the system just didn't believe Chi Zhao's words. Chi Zhao was helpless. Seeing that the system's mood was getting lower and lower every second, he had to change the topic, "Didn't you say you couldn't go to the game before, why did you change your mind again? ."
The system had the idea of going to participate in the competition before, but it has not been implemented, because it has thought about it, it is too unprofessional to run to participate in the competition when I am still working, and this competition cycle is very Long, it took several years from the preliminary round to the finals. If something happened in the middle, wouldn't it be a waste of time to participate.
So, the system took the registration form and never submitted it. Until a few days ago, the system faintly saw the picture that the world plot was about to fall apart. In a fit of rage, the system ran to hand in the registration form, which was not bad, and caught up with the last batch of registration Time, if this batch can't catch up, we can only wait another five years.
When human beings are depressed, they will go out for a walk, look at the scenery, and change their mood. The system is the same. On Chi Zhao’s side, the system went out for three days, but in fact the system only went out for less than two hours. After being applauded by several virtual judges, the system has regained confidence and a good mood until it returns.
…
No amount of compliments can match the action of the protagonist.
There was another long silence, and then Chi Zhao heard the system's answer.
[Our system also has to live. Seeing that I will be unemployed, of course I have to find another way out to support my family.]
Chi Zhao: "I said that the plot is still under my control, don't worry, you won't lose your job."
As if the system didn't hear it, it looked at its own version name in a vicissitudes of life, and then continued quietly.
[yes? But I already have the wrong product, and the system with the wrong product is going to be unemployed.]
After finishing speaking, the system also specifically explained what it means to have a wrong product.
[Look, my full name is the scumbag acting system, but you are not scumbag at all, so the word scumbag is removed, and you haven't acted well, and all you think about is falling in love every day, so remove the role. Hmm... Well, please call me by the system in the future.]
Chi Zhao: "..."
Chi Zhao wanted to continue defending, but at this time, Hong Lei came in, she was carrying a bowl of medicine that she was very familiar with, Chi Zhao saw it, and suddenly felt confident, "You don't believe what I said, now the facts are in front of you, you I should believe it, if there is a problem with the plot, Shen Wumian will not send me poison anymore, and he is still sending it now, it means that there is no problem with the plot!"
Suddenly, a sneer came from his mind.
[Do you think I am a new system? Which time the plot collapsed in an instant, isn't it all gradual! I like you today, fall in love with you tomorrow, and die for you the day after tomorrow! Just wait, within a month, this poison will turn into an antidote.]
A grievance and tiny choking passed in an instant, and then, the sound of the system sounded again.
[Forget it, I'm used to it, I'll go ahead and sing, maybe I'll be fired after you untie it. At that time, Tongsheng will be down and down, and singing will be my only comfort and outlet, alas.]
Chi Zhao: "… "
Sir, your plays are really getting more and more.
After the argument with the system came to an end, Chi Zhao drank the medicine and continued to lie on the bed, then thought about why Shen Wumian did these incomprehensible behaviors.
Did he fall in love with him too? That's too ridiculous, he's not King Mary Sue, how could everyone love him so much that the first few would fall in love with him, in fact, if you think about it carefully, there's a reason for that. Only this Shen Wumian, he has no reason to like himself, not to mention, there is a deep hatred between the two that can't even be eliminated by life and death.
Thinking like this, Chi Zhao was firm, so, as the system said before, it is impossible for Shen Wumian to like him, so how can he explain his recent behavior
Is it...
Chi Zhao suddenly widened his eyes, shocked.
He understood, this was the second wave of Shen Wumian's offensive! Be nice to Chen Yi, invisibly tease Chen Yi, let him fall in love with him even more, and then dump him! Make him suffer!
Wow this guy... so bad so bad.
Chi Zhao, who plays the script with Slag Shou and strives to torture the protagonist to the death in every world, has a heart.
…
After I figured it out, there was nothing to worry about. Chi Zhao slept peacefully, and soon fell asleep. Outside the palace, in the Prince Regent's mansion, His Royal Highness, the Prince Regent, who had locked himself in the study since he came back, finally stepped out of the room. Door.
The other secret guards were all sent to the palace. Of the remaining nine, three were working elsewhere, two were sent to monitor the left and right ministers, and one was locked up and remained in the palace to be active. Yes, there are only three left.
The two squatted on the roof to protect Shen Wumian's safety, while the other was hiding in the dark. After Shen Wumian walked out of the door, he waved his hand, and the dark guard who was hidden in the dark came out and knelt down to obey the order.
Shen Wumian didn't have anything to tell him to do, he just asked, "How is Sixteen now."
Among the secret guards of the palace, the ten top ten people grew up together from childhood, experienced the most brutal selection of secret guards, and then trained together to this day. The remaining nine had no such experience. They were all brought back to the palace one after another, and each had their own role. For example, Sixteen, he was the substitute of the prince, and the fourteen who was kneeling on the ground was the palace. A carefully cultivated work, he has a perfect identity outside, and when the time comes, Shen Wumian will send him out and let him seek benefits for himself.
Only he and Shen Wumian know the identity of Fourteen. Until now, Shen Wumian has not thought about where to arrange Fourteen. After all, he has lived a new life, and many things are known earlier than others, so there is no need. It's used where it's finely crafted.
Therefore, Shi Shi still stayed in the palace as an ordinary dark guard.
The Dark Guard is always loyal to the master. If the master wants him to kill his parents, he will do it without hesitation. Therefore, even though Shen Shiliu has been imprisoned for more than two months, Shishi has no confusion or sympathy at all. Pass.
"It's still the same, don't talk, don't make a fuss."
Speaking of this, Fourteen raised his head, "Master, in the eyes of this subordinate, Sixteen is bent on dying."
Desire to die...
I don't know what to think, Shen Wumian laughed, the laughter was too light, it didn't sound like a sneer or a sarcasm, it seemed like he just wanted to laugh and laughed, there was no extra emotion in it at all.
Shen Wumian raised his head and glanced at the sky. Tonight, the dark clouds covered the top, there were no stars and no moon, Shen Wumian put his right hand behind his back, and his wide sleeves followed, "This king, go see him, you guys are guarding outside."
"Yes."
Three replies sounded at the same time, but except for the fourteenth and the remaining two, no one could find out where it came from.
Shen Shiliu was locked in the dungeon by Shen Wumian. This was the most secret cell in the palace. The temperature in summer was several degrees higher than outside. If it was the hottest time, it could kill a person alive inside. Now is the hottest time, but Shen Wumian won't let Shen Shiliu die like this, so he sent people to watch over him, and poured a bucket of biting cold water that was just hit from the bottom of the well on him every once in a while. , to cool him down.
To be honest, in the plot, Shen Shiliu was treated much better than Chen Yi. He was locked up by Shen Wumian from the very beginning, but Shen Wumian never tortured him, just locked him up and delivered three meals a day. Come, in the last period of time, in order to let Chen Yi see how miserable he was, Shen Wumian ordered him to be tortured.
The current Shen Shiliu has never been punished. For ordinary people, the sultry heat and the ice and fire double heaven that come to him from time to time are nothing to Shen Shiliu who was born in the dark guard.
Although Shen Wumian is vindictive, he will only take revenge on those he should take revenge on. What Shen Wumian hates is Chen Yi's betrayal and humiliation. Although Shen Shiliu also betrayed him, Shen Wumian doesn't have that much hatred for him, because Shen Shiliu is a dark guard.
Dark guard, all the feelings have been cultivated into deformities since childhood, and only the master is in his eyes. Even if Chen Yi made Shen Shiliu defect, Shen Wumian didn't think that Shen Shiliu really fell in love with Chen Yi, maybe in Shen Shiliu's eyes, Chen Yi was just a new master.
Thinking of this in the past, Shen Wumian would feel very ironic and happy, but thinking about it again today, Shen Wumian felt a little more unfamiliar in his heart.
For example... lucky.
The dark passage leading to the dungeon is extremely dark, and the air is getting more and more turbid and sultry. I don't know if the physical feeling has also affected my heart. Shen Wumian feels that his heart is getting more and more stuffy and muddy. , has reached the point where it cannot be seen clearly.
At this time, there was only Shen Shiliu in the dungeon. Hearing someone coming, Shen Shiliu, who was sitting against the wall with his head down, raised his head, revealing a face that was nine points similar to Shen Wumian.
Not only the faces are similar, he has been learning Shen Wumian's living habits, the actions and expressions of dealing with people and things all these years, and finally, he doesn't even know what kind of character he was originally. Just like now, what will happen to Shen Shiliu sitting in the dungeon, he doesn't know, but he knows that if Shen Wumian sits in the dungeon, he will definitely be expressionless and ignore everything, so his current appearance is expressionless and indifferent everything.
As for what he was thinking, only he knew.
Seeing that Shen Wumian came over, Shen Shiliu's expression changed. He still remembered his identity. Soon, he knelt in front of Shen Wumian and whispered: "Sixteen has seen the master."
- Uncle Ji Yue Qingfeng, as bright as a jade tree, what I like most is the unforgettable face of Uncle Huang.
The words are still in my ears.
It was this face, just a glance, that caught Chen Yi's eyes, making Chen Yi haunted for many years, who had not yet recovered from the catastrophe of life and death. Even if he has such a face, even if he has been with him for many years, he still can't match the faint glance of that year.
Shen Wumian had already discovered that something was wrong with him. He spurned and hated himself, but no matter what, he couldn't turn his distorted thoughts back again. He knew that he would be betrayed and that the person in the eyes of the other party was not him. He also wanted to paste it like crazy, to replace the person who occupied his heart.
Even Shen Wumian didn't understand how he could be so stupid.
The most ridiculous thing is that looking at Shen Shiliu now, he who didn't have much hatred for Shen Shiliu actually wanted to tear off his face, so that no one would know that there is another person in the world similar to him in the future. Chen Yi could only look at himself again.
Although he thought so in his heart, Shen Wumian wouldn't do it. His nobleness and arrogance would not allow him to do such a thing. The high-ranking regent competes with a lowly servant, and no one will believe what he says.
Shen Wumian looked down at Shen Shiliu who was kneeling in front of him, and after a while, he said a word.
That sentence was the only reason he came here, and he wanted to know that answer.
"Back then, why did you save Chen Yi?"
Shen Wumian suddenly imprisoned Shen Shiliu in the dungeon, and the insider would definitely not understand, even Shen Shiliu himself wanted to get an answer, although he never asked.
And Shen Wumian gave him an answer, what he said at the time was that Shen Shiliu shot to save Chen Yi. The double shot rashly and exposed his whereabouts. This was a taboo, and Shen Shiliu himself knew it. Although he didn't understand where Shen Wumian learned about this, he also understood that he was already an abandoned chess piece, useless.
Fourteen is right, Shen Sixteen is bent on dying. He hopes that Shen Wumian can give him a good time, but more than two months have passed, Shen Wumian has never moved, neither killing him, nor punishing him, let alone will let him go.
Today, when he saw Shen Wumian come in, he thought his death was finally here, but after hearing Shen Wumian's question, he was stunned.
It was obviously a good question to answer, but Shen Shiliu was silent for a long time before answering.
"Subordinate... I don't know either."
I don't know why, when he saw the child struggling in the water in a panic, his heart, which should have no warmth, suddenly trembled. He didn't want to see the child die like this, so he shot.
All of this happened in an instant. When he took the person out of the water, he realized what he had done. He fled, never realizing that the child who should have passed out had opened up for a short time. Eye.
For so many years, Shen Shiliu didn't know who the child he saved was, or when Shen Wumian locked him up, he learned that it was the little prince that he saved at that time.
The dark guard couldn't answer that he didn't know, which would make the master unhappy, but on this question, Shen Shiliu could only answer that he didn't know. After hearing his answer, Shen Wumian's expression gradually changed.
Like moving, like ridicule, like anger.
In the eyes of others, the answer that is nonsensical, in Shen Wumian's place, is very clear. Because he and Shen Shiliu felt the same way.
He is like this, he doesn't know why he wants to get close to Chen Yi, he doesn't know what happened to him to do these unreasonable things, and he doesn't even know what he is like now.
On the one hand, he wanted to kill him, and on the other hand, he wanted to protect him.
"You won't regret it later."
I haven't heard Shen Wumian's words for a long time, and Shen Shiliu was a little distracted. He slowly raised his head, a daze flashed in his eyes, "Why don't you regret it later, please make it clear."
Shen Wumian's voice was extremely low, "This matter of saving Chen Yi."
If Chen Yi hadn't been saved, Shen Shiliu would not have ended up in this field, and if he hadn't saved Chen Yi, he would have been able to live longer. Everyone wants to continue to live, even the emotionally deformed dark guards, they also have the desire to continue to live.
However, after a pause, under Shen Wumian's gaze, Shen Shiliu shook his head, "I don't regret it."
…
Walking out of the dungeon, Shen Wumian couldn't tell what he was like.
He thought that Chen Yi was ridiculous, but in fact, the most ridiculous person was him.
Shen Shiliu may have been trained to be a dark guard with deformed feelings, but his feelings for Chen Yi have never been deformed. He is worthy of Chen Yi's ten-year memory, and Chen Yi's choice for him. betray yourself.
Standing in the empty courtyard, Shen Wumian suddenly wanted to laugh.
He wanted to laugh out loud sadly, but stop joking, he couldn't even lift the corners of his drooping lips.
He can't figure out now, which of himself and Shen Shiliu is the substitute.
…
Shen Wumian's habit is to appear like a convulsion once, then disappear for a long time, and then appear again like a convulsion. Chi Zhao felt that he had mastered the frequency of his appearance, so this time, when Shen Wumian disappeared again, he ignored it.
Before, Chi Zhao still thought about brushing his presence from time to time, but in view of Shen Wumian's signs of collapse, Chi Zhaoan stayed in his palace peacefully, no matter how red tears tricked him, he would not go out again. The little emperor never came out, and the masochistic regent didn't want to see him. This caused the entire palace to be overwhelmed by dark clouds, and neither the palace maids nor the ministers who came on call dared to stay here.
Chi Zhao is very calm because he has lived for too long. If the plot does not require him, he can stay in this acre until he dies, but on Shen Wumian's side, he was angry at first. He was willing to go, and later, in order not to keep thinking of Chen Yi, he began to find something for himself.
He finds work for himself, and many ministers have nothing to do.
…
The undercurrent of the previous dynasty was surging, and Chi Zhao could occasionally hear some news, such as which minister was raided by the regent again, which minister ran into a pillar and threatened the regent. , said it was better to die like this, the angry minister fainted on the spot, foamed at the mouth, and almost returned to the west.
The power of the previous dynasty is gradually being replaced by the regent's troops. No one knows how the regent did it. He could even know about Lord Chang's concubine cheating with the concierge, and then brought it to the court to deal with Lord Chang.
Poor Lord Chang is so old, he just saw that the regent was obsessed with power and wanted to find a way to distract him, so he said in the court that the regent was old and it was time to marry a wife, and he was arrested. To attack with such a humiliating thing.
Chi Zhao listens to Hong Lei saying these things like listening to stories every day. What Hong Lei does is inspired by Shen Wumian, so when he hears Hong Lei saying these things, Chi Zhao thinks deeply and thinks it is Shen Wumian. Wumian still doesn't trust him, thinking that he wants to be in power.
The system, which was as quiet as a chicken, didn't want to speak, and just scanned Chi Zhao's brain structure without saying hello. It always felt that Chi Zhao's brain must be different from other people's, otherwise he couldn't be so stupid.
…
It was another starless and moonless night. Chi Zhao had just fallen asleep when suddenly, the system spoke.
[Host, wake up, the assassin is in!]
Chi Zhao fell into a daze and was woken up suddenly, he got up quickly, "What? What goose came in?!"
system:"… "
