Wen Xuan stared blankly at the wall in front of him, at the picture drawn on it. All of these pictures depict one person, the same person. With every frown and smile, every move and every move, it seems that every angle and every moment is depicted on it, and it is all Wenxuan himself.
At this moment, even the light in Wen Xuan's hand could not help but tremble.
What kind of scene is this? On such a narrow road, as far as the eye can see, it is all himself, from the inexhaustible way to the inexhaustible way. To be honest, Wen Xuan was even a little scared.
He stabilized the fire in his hand, recovered after a long while, and walked back and forth along this path. Sure enough, it was all him. Without exception, incessantly.
Wen Xuan stopped again and looked up at the mural in front of him. In this painting, Wen Xuan is sitting upright at the table, examining the talisman in his hands by the candlelight. Although it is engraved on the stone wall, perhaps because it only exists in the simple heart, it is surprisingly clear and vivid. The candlelight illuminated Hua Wenxuan's low and smooth eyebrows, which made one's heart move, and felt extremely beautiful.
Wenxuan touched his face subconsciously, thinking about whether he really looked as good as in the painting. Undoubtedly, although Wenxuan himself does not look bad, he is obviously a bit more handsome in the painting.
Thinking that this was in Jian Jian's heart, Wen Xuan sighed, but couldn't help but smile.
So far, he has long believed that Jian Yi really values him that much. Now, for the first time, he intuitively knows that his weight in Jian Yi's heart is actually much heavier and much heavier than he originally thought.
This is already a weight that cannot be put into words. This weight made Wen Xuan a little shocked, a little frightened, but more happy.
Wen Xuan just smiled and continued on this road.
But why is there a road here? Why is this road so narrow and so dark
Wenxuan pressed this question in his heart, hoping to get an answer after he had exhausted this path. He felt that this road must have an end. Because he knew that no matter how important he was in his heart, he could not be the only one.
At least, Jian Yi still had the many years before he met him. The world that sounds bizarre, the happy family in the simple mouth.
But no matter how long Wenxuan walked, there was still this narrow road under his feet, and his eyes were still the pictures of Wenxuan that were not repeated on the wall, as if there was really no end.
Wen Xuan finally stopped. There is no way that there is only such an endless road in Yi Jian's mind. There must be something wrong with the situation in front of him.
He settled down and looked around carefully.
What does this road really mean? This is the road in the simple heart, perhaps the road in the simple heart is so narrow and dark. There is only Wenxuan on this road, and there is no second choice, not even light. But, in any case, that can't be all.
There must be something beyond the road.
If there is no end to the road, those things must be on the outside of the road, just behind this wall.
On the wall in front of him, there was a picture of Wen Xuan lying dozing on the bedside. Wen Xuan looked at the painting, and a spell condensed in his hand. He wanted to try and destroy the wall, but hesitated to do so.
Wen Xuan just pinched the spell, staring at the stone wall in front of him and thinking. After a while, he finally dispersed the spell in his hand.
If he really wants to destroy this wall, he is still reluctant. After all, this is the wall in the simple heart, and it is full of pictures of him. If this side is destroyed, he doesn't know what the consequences will be and whether it will have any impact on the simplicity.
But that doesn't mean he has given up on his previous plans. He realized that this was not a real wall, but a barrier erected in Jian Yi's heart.
If it is not a real wall, there is no need to really destroy it.
"Junior Brother Jian," Wen Xuan said in a low voice, "Let me take a look, look at your true heart, look at the things that you have hidden in the depths."
Saying that, he stretched out his hand and touched the wall lightly.
The wall was very hard, but Wenxuan didn't seem to feel the hardness at all, and continued to stretch his hand forward, pressing against the wall, pushing hard against the wall.
If he doesn't move, he doesn't care, he just continues to exert force.
After a while, Wen Xuan almost had blue veins appearing on his hand, but he ignored it. After a while, Wen Xuan's back was soaked with sweat, but he still gritted his teeth and exerted his strength.
In reality, this kind of behavior is simply ridiculous. But this is in the simple heart. Wenxuan knows that this wall will not be really solid as a rock, and there will be soft spots.
Finally, after a long period of persistence, Wen Xuan's palm sank into the wall. Although he only fell into a mere fraction, this was a huge encouragement to Wenxuan.
He had spent almost his entire life trying to squeeze past this wall.
"Junior Brother Jian..." Wen Xuan gritted his teeth, his teeth began to tremble, "Let me... take a look..."
He wanted to know, he wanted to know everything about simplicity.
Finally, his entire arm sank into the wall. He could feel that there was still a huge space behind the wall, his palm had already touched that space, and then his whole person.
When he finally squeezed out that wall, Wen Xuan was almost sweating.
When he opened his eyes from the darkness, all he saw was still darkness.
Is it that dark here too
Wenxuan was stunned for a moment, then he breathed a little, and he did the same, igniting fire in his hands. As a result, the firelight this time only illuminated the small ball in his hand, and the light could not be dispersed at all.
Why is this happening? Wen Xuan was stunned.
He made the flame in his hand split into four sparks, which flew in four directions. However, as soon as the spark left his palm, he only heard a pop, and was completely drowned in the darkness, as if it was extinguished.
Wen Xuan suddenly lost his mind. But since he had already lost so much energy and squeezed in, it was impossible for him to retreat just because of the mere darkness.
He took a deep breath and started walking left and right in the dark. Different from the narrow road before, the dark space in front of you is very wide, and there is no end in any direction.
This is the broadest territory in Jian Jian's heart, but Jian Jian uses those walls to isolate this place from the road.
There should be something here, but Wenxuan couldn't see it.
Wen Xuan knew that he still hadn't been able to see the deepest part of Jian Yi's heart. If he succeeded in reaching the deepest part and really saw through everything in the simple, he would be able to detect the Gu worm lurking in the simple. Now he can't feel it at all, which proves that he is still a long way from his goal.
The first thing to do is to dispel the darkness.
Along the way, Wenxuan has cast countless firelights out, but without exception, they are all buried in this darkness. Gradually, Wen Xuan realized that this darkness might have substance.
Thinking of this, Wen Xuan's right hand ignited another fire, but his left hand attracted a breeze. It may seem like a ridiculous idea to blow the darkness away with the wind. But after Wenxuan tried this, he actually made the fire in his hand shine a little further.
Sure enough, this was actually a black fog, a black fog that filled the entire space.
With a solution, Wenxuan naturally did not hesitate. He moved the breeze in his hand more and more, and it gradually became a gust of wind. The fire in his hand also suddenly brightened, and finally the eyes were bright and clear.
Wenxuan only felt that a touch of white appeared in the darkness, and he was about to make persistent efforts, but another kind of power suddenly surged out of the dark space. This power was suddenly withdrawn in this space, like a giant hand holding it, and all the gusts of wind that Wenxuan had drawn were all calmed down at once. The light that had finally been illuminated was also extinguished at once, and all previous efforts were lost in an instant.
How could another force emerge from here
Wen Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then he understood. This is the simple heart, such a powerful force, naturally can only be the power in the simple heart.
The power in Jian's heart is blocking him, preventing him from dispelling the darkness, preventing him from seeing clearly, and preventing him from reaching the depths.
Wen Xuan clenched his teeth, feeling very wronged in his heart.
At the same time, he was also inspired by a desire to win, saying that he had to fight against this power, and he had to achieve the purpose of this trip.
"Junior Brother Jian," Wen Xuan called Feng again, "Why did you stop me?"
This time, he poured all his power into this wind, and was ready to contend with that power again.
But when the power came again, it did not calm the wind. Wen Xuan only felt as if he had been bounced by the force coming towards him, and then the flames in his hands flickered and extinguished. His eyes darkened and lit up, and a bright light suddenly penetrated.
Wen Xuan was taken aback. When the vision in front of him gradually changed from blurred to clear, he saw a simple pair of eyes very closely.
Jian Yi seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, then stepped back and smiled at him.
Wenxuan was stunned for a while before he realized that he had returned to reality. The power in Jian Jian's heart actually ejected him directly!
Wenxuan was inexplicably sad and angry in an instant.
At the same time, he noticed a slight strangeness. This strangeness is inexplicable, and it seems to come from his own heart. As if there was a thread in his heart that was originally connected to it, but now that thread is disconnected.
"Concentric Gu... You..." Wen Xuan quickly thought of the reason, and his expression changed slightly.
"Yes," Jian Yi told him with great joy, "Senior brother, I succeeded."
Compared with the difficulties and ups and downs that Wenxuan had in Yi Jian's heart, Yi Jian's side can be said to have gone smoothly. On the one hand, Jian Jian had a deep understanding of Wen Xuan, and on the other hand, because Wen Xuan had no defense against Jian Yi. Thoroughly and frankly, he was easily seen thoroughly by him.
With almost no effort, he easily reached the deepest part of Wen Xuan's heart, making the Gu worm fall into hibernation.
"From now on, you will no longer be affected by Concentric Gu." Jian Yi smiled and narrowed his eyes.
Wen Xuan was not happy at all, his face was dripping with water, "But I failed."
"If you fail, you fail, senior brother, don't take it too seriously." Jian Yi smiled, "I didn't say it before, this kind of thing is not so easy to succeed. If you succeed halfway, you can already, this result is very good. "
Wen Xuan looked at him, thinking about his previous strange attitudes.
Yes, as early as the very beginning, Jian Jian repeatedly emphasized to him the possibility of failure and the so-called half-success. At the time, he thought it was an expression of simple lack of self-confidence, which was so wrong. The reason why Yi Jian behaved like that is because he had already expected the result at this time.
He had known for a long time how much defense he had buried in his heart, and he had never thought of letting Wen Xuan really reach the depths of his heart.
"I failed, I failed." Wen Xuan's voice was cold and hard, with a hint of anger, "There is no such thing as half-success."
"Senior brother, why do you say that?" Jian Yi sensed his anger, and persuaded a little helplessly, "Even if it's only half-successful, from now on, you will..."
"From now on, whether you live or die, it will have no effect on me." Wen Xuan cut off the speech and finished the rest.
Jian Yi was so embarrassed that he didn't know how to continue.
"But if I die," Wen Xuan said again, "I will kill you too."
"Yeah, Senior Brother, that's true." Jian Yi looked into his eyes and asked directly, "But so what?"
What is that so what? This time, Wenxuan was speechless.
"Your life doesn't need to be tied to me, isn't that enough?" Jian Yi smiled, "As for my... Senior Brother, even if there is no such thing as a concentric Gu, you wouldn't think that if something happened to you , can I live alone in this world?"
This rhetorical question is more shocking than any confession. Wenxuan thought about the narrow road he saw at first, thinking about the two walls full of himself, and didn't say a word for a long time.
After a long while, when Wen Xuan spoke again, the corners of his eyes turned slightly red, "But, it's not fair."
"There's nothing unfair, it's all my own choice..." Jian Yi was just halfway through when he suddenly saw the redness in the corner of Wen Xuan's eyes, and he was stunned.
Since he met Wenxuan, he has accompanied Wenxuan through many ups and downs, and watched Wenxuan go through a lot of pain. But before that, he had never seen Wen Xuan showing such an expression.
Anger, grievance, and unwillingness are intertwined, so much so that you will cry if you are one minute away.
"Junior Brother Jian," Wen Xuan grabbed Jian Jian's wrist and held it tightly, holding it extremely hard, "It's not fair."
"No, it's not, senior brother, don't think so." Jian Jian was at a loss, and didn't know how to comfort him for a while, "You... I... This kind of thing, it won't happen, won't let you... "
But in the end, Wenxuan did not really show such a fragile side. The redness in the corners of his eyes only panned, and he was quickly put back by him. He just held the simple wrist tightly and said word by word, "Junior Brother Jian, let me try again."
Jian Yi looked at him blankly, and nodded blankly.
The previous process had already laid a bridge in their hearts. In theory, they could try again as many times as they wanted.
Just after Yi Jian nodded, Wen Xuan leaned over and pressed his forehead to his forehead again.
It's still the familiar dark narrow road, it's still passing through the wall as if trying with all of its strength, it's still the black mist that is so thick that it can't be dissolved, and it's still the defense that is so strong that it can't be resisted in the simple heart. force.
Wen Xuan didn't even say a word after being popped into reality again.
Jian Yi didn't say a word, just sighed.
Soon, Wenxuan pressed his forehead to his forehead for the third time.
All the resistance was put in the mind of Jian Yi.
This time Wenxuan held on for a little longer, almost desperately fighting against the resistance in Jian Yi's heart. But how could he be better than easy in easy mind? After holding on for a while, Wen Xuan was once again thrown into reality.
Simple exhaled a breath, but knew that it was far from the end. Once Wenxuan became stubborn, he would not admit defeat so easily.
This time, Jian Jian even took the initiative to stick his forehead on it.
A few moments later, it was the same result again.
For the same thing, they didn't know how many times they tried, and Wenxuan didn't know how many times they failed. Every time it is simple, it will make you look a little more tired, but Wenxuan's fatigue will only get worse. The two, who had not quarreled for a long time, were in a place like this, fighting endlessly for no reason.
Simple and strict guarding, Wenxuan desperately broke through, and no one wanted to take a step back.
Until the moon was in the middle of the sky, after Wen Xuandi was bounced back to reality for an unknown number of times, Jian Jian opened his mouth and asked in a slightly hoarse voice, "Senior brother, is it alright?"
Wen Xuan looked at him, unable to even breathe. The walls on both sides of the narrow road were the first road barriers set up by Jian Jian. Although Wenxuan would break through every time, it would cost him a lot of effort each time, causing his face to be as pale as ever.
"Senior brother," Although Jian Yi was tired now, his worries about Wen Xuan were the reason why he had to speak at this time, "It's alright."
Yeah, it's ok. The original spirit that was unwilling to admit defeat has long since been smoothed out after so many failures. Wen Xuan only felt disheartened.
He looked at Jian Jian quietly, but did not respond for a long time.
"Junior Brother Jian," when he finally spoke, he said, "I can't reach your heart at all, can I?"
Jian Yi replied quickly, "You are already in my heart, and my heart is all about you."
This is the truth, and the frescoes on the walls are iron proof. However, that is only the layer of the simple atrium closest to the outside world. There are more hidden places, but they are covered tightly by him, and Wenxuan will not know about it.
It is really not to die, without any exaggeration. He would rather pursue the so-called half-success, and pursue his own life still tied to Wenxuan, rather than let Wenxuan see everything in his heart.
Wen Xuan really wanted to ask why.
Why are you willing to die because of me, but still keep me out
But the same sentence can also be asked in reverse: He is willing to die because of you, what are you still insisting on
Wenxuan smiled a little, with a bit of self-deprecation, "Okay, I was greedy."
He seemed to have finally looked away, but he was still unhappy in his heart. Jian Yi held his arm, looking worried. He shook his head, looked at Jian Jian for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Junior Brother Jian, you said before that you lived happily in your original world, but you lied to me, right?"
As soon as the voice landed, Jian Jian was obviously stiff.
After a while, Jian Jian pretended to be natural, "Senior brother, why do you suddenly ask such a question?"
"I just thought of it suddenly." Wen Xuan said. Thinking about what he would hide in his heart, what could he hide, and what could make him so repulsive from being known by Wenxuan, he thought, "Although you said that, in fact, You've never thought about home since you and I met."
If you really live a happy life and have a happy family, how can you come to another world so far away and only be happy to meet the characters you know in the book, without feeling homesick at all
Jian Jian opened his mouth, only to feel that his mouth was dry, and he couldn't speak at all.
Some things, he tried his best to cover up. However, it was in such a place that he had never thought of, the biggest clue was revealed.
After a long while, Jian Jian choked out four words, "It's all over."
If it is really over, it will not be impossible to face. Wenxuan knew this truth, but he could only sigh.
So those things that are hidden in the bottom of my heart by simplicity are those things in the previous world that he pretended to be happy even though they were not happy? Maybe it is or maybe it is not, he won't know if he doesn't even let him see it. As long as you guess, there is always the possibility of guessing wrong.
"Senior brother, it doesn't matter what I used to be." Jian Yi said anxiously, as if eager to express his position, "Since I met you, I'm just me as you know me. What does it do? That's none of my business. Ever since you and I met, I just wanted to be with you."
"En." Wen Xuan nodded, and suddenly said, "Me too."
Simple stunned.
"I just want to be with you." Wen Xuan said.
Jian Yi came back to his senses, his face flushed, and he was overjoyed.
Wenxuan rubbed his head and said with a smile, "Junior Brother Jian, today I was too self-willed to drag you and toss for so long. It's so late, are you tired?"
Jian Jian is naturally tired, but he won't answer, "Senior brother, don't say that, you just want to solve the Tongxin Gu problem completely."
"Yeah." Wen Xuan nodded and replied in a low voice.
The two then chatted some more, and Jian Jian couldn't hold it any longer, so he said goodbye to Wen Xuan and hurried back to his cave to rest.
Although Wenxuan also prepared his room here, since he returned to the sect this time, Qi Jibai has become more or less like a master. If he didn't go back all night, he was afraid that he would inevitably be taught a lesson by the master.
After Jian Jian left, Wen Xuan sat alone in the cave, and he couldn't help clenching his hands into fists where there was still a slight smile on his face.
It's a shame, I still can't be reconciled.
Wenxuan gritted his teeth and whispered those four words again, "...It's not fair."
There is such a person who knows everything about you, accepts everything about you, and will always be with you.
You know nothing about him.
