The simple question was like a slap in the face of Qin Shiyu. A nameless fire suddenly rose in Qin Shiyu's heart, and he couldn't help but glared at Jian Yi. Wenxuan stood in front of Jian Jian and looked back steadily.
The two sides were at such a stalemate for a while, but after all, Qin Shiyu had something to ask for, so he surrendered first. Then Qin Shiyu took another look at the bloody figure on the ice bed, and suddenly lost his interest in continuing to entangle with Wen Xuan and the others. He only confirmed that Wenxuan had agreed to his request, so he took these people out of this secret room and brought them into that hall again, attracting the waitress.
But Qin Shiyu was still brooding about the simple sentence. When the maid poured him tea, he suddenly said, "What do you know?"
Jian Jian was too lazy to answer, just raised his head and glanced at him with a half-smile.
"Junior Brother Jian." Wen Xuan found the situation here, and quickly stretched out his hand and pressed it on Jian Jian's shoulder.
For a moment, Qin Shiyu looked at Wen Xuan's hand on Jian Jian's shoulder, and suddenly felt that Jian Jian's question didn't actually hit his face, but hit his heart.
Qin Shiyu was suddenly a little angry, a little hesitant, and a little unwilling. He drank the tea in his hand sullenly, said goodbye, and left a room of guests to leave first.
"Senior brother," Jian Jian asked slightly ashamed, "Did I have a new branch again?"
Wen Xuan patted the top of his head lightly, "It's okay. You're right to ask that."
Jian Yi glanced at the direction Qin Shiyu was leaving, and laughed to himself, "What's right or wrong? He can't listen anyway."
"Why?" Wen Xuan turned to his side, "I think he cares a lot."
Simple but always disapproved, and he really despised Qin Shiyu in his words. He is familiar with the original work, and naturally knows how stubborn the first male protagonist in this original work is, and he is always confident in his own judgment...
Before the words of contempt were finished, there was a sudden wave of mana in the direction of the secret room. The simple and unfinished words just paused.
He reluctantly judged that it seemed that the spell that had frozen Xue Bing'er was thawed
It was indeed thawed, and it was thawed for a moment, and soon it was frozen again. But in just a moment of thawing and freezing, there is a more peculiar mana fluctuation. This fluctuation was even more intense, and even many of Wen Xuan's little demons who had just condensed their energy felt it, and all of them were surprised.
Simple's originally disdainful look couldn't help but stay sluggish on his face.
Soon, Qin Shiyu returned to the hall again. This time, he rushed in directly, his eyes were red, and his eyes were staring directly at Jian Yi, with a hatred that wanted to smash him to ashes.
"Fellow Daoist Qin." Wen Xuan didn't stop in front of Yi Jian this time, but stood beside him, "Why take anger?"
These four words made Qin Shiyu calm down a little. It took him a long time to take back the hatred in his eyes, but there was an uncontrollable grief that made his shoulders sink.
After a while, Qin Shiyu beckoned and sent off the guest.
Up to this time, Jian Yi was still in a fog, unbelievable.
"Junior Brother Jian," Wen Xuan suddenly asked curiously on the way back, "In that story, after she woke up, what kind of choices did she make?"
The original novel that Wenxuan saw in Simple Memories was only the part that Simple and Simple had pondered over and over again, and there was no further plot. When Jian Jian heard this question, he shook his head, "At that time, the choices she faced were different."
Yes, in the original work, "she" never got the opportunity to choose "whether to exchange someone else's life for her own". When she could finally make a choice, the choice had become "I've killed several people in exchange for you. It's up to you to decide whether to live or die."
How cruel and ruthless, and how seamless? It is these plots in the original work that make Jian Yi believe that Qin Shiyu cannot be persuaded at all, but...
Wen Xuan sighed, "Now she has a chance."
Simple was speechless for a moment. Yes, there is only one explanation for those strange situations just now.
"Junior Brother Jian, the changes that people can make in different situations are greater than you think." Wen Xuan leaned over and patted Jian Jian's shoulder, "The changes you can bring about with a single sentence are also greater than you think. ."
Jian Jian listened to these words quietly, and recalled the grief-stricken appearance of Qin Shiyu just now, and there was a faint sense of shock in his heart.
Wenxuan returned to the cave with Jian Jian and the group of little demons, and sent a letter to Murong Feng, mentioning the matter of the Heavenly Demon's Horn.
A few days later, Qin Shiyu bought it from Murong Feng.
After dozens of days, Wenxuan was planning to return to Ximing, and Qin Shiyu suddenly came to visit.
This time Qin Shiyu was not alone, with a woman behind him. Because of the cold weather, the woman wrapped herself tightly at first, and it was not until she entered the house and took off her hat that people could see her face clearly.
Xue Binger.
It was easy to see from the arrogance in the corners of his eyes that it was Xue Bing'er, not "she".
"Bing'er," Qin Shiyu pointed at Wenxuan, "this time you can be saved, thanks to fellow Daoist Wen, why don't you thank me soon?"
Xue Bing'er was impatient for two points, and three points of disagreement, but she saluted obediently and thanked her well.
The trouble this woman caused many years ago is still fresh in Wen Xuan and Jian Yi's memory. When they suddenly received such a gift, both of them didn't know how to react.
In the end, after Xue Bing'er said thank you, she twisted it twice, and stumbled again, "When I was young and ignorant, I was arrogant, and I did a lot of wrong things. Please, please..." After all, she was the one who never apologized. People, I stumbled for a long time at the end of the speech, but I couldn't explain the words "please forgive me" clearly.
Wenxuan and Yijian were already stunned, why did they care about this kind of detail? Besides, this woman has had such a miserable experience. Of course, a good person like Wenxuan will not care about the discord in the past. Jian Jian wanted to care about it, but in this situation, he couldn't slap the apology back on Xue Bing'er's face, and in the end he silently accepted it.
Qin Shiyu brought her here, and he specially asked her to thank and reconcile with the two of them. Seeing the current situation, he was very happy immediately. Then Qin Shiyu left a gift on the ground and took her to say goodbye again.
As for the woman Qin Shiyu originally wanted to save? Oh, at that time, Qin Shiyu suddenly couldn't think of it. He untied the freezing spell for a moment, and wanted to say a few words to her. In fact, it was just a fluke, thinking that maybe she could understand her intentions, and it would not be too late to freeze. Who would have known that the woman was so resolute, with such a momentary opportunity, without saying a word, she immediately destroyed her soul and returned her body to Xue Binger.
Leaving only Xue Bing'er, a Heavenly Demon's Horn was enough to save her life.
Qin Shiyu lost his soul for several days, but finally accepted the reality. After all, Xue Bing'er has been with him for so many years, and it's good to be able to save her. As for that woman, he had worked so hard for so long, but he still couldn't match her own choice. After all, it was just a mirror image.
After the two of them left, it was unbelievable that Jian Yi stayed where he was.
Xue Bing'er's twisted apology overlapped with Qin Shiyu's grief-stricken look before, which made Jian Yi give birth to a kind of unwillingness to be compared by the person who originally hated and despised him the most.
With this inexplicable unwillingness, he turned around in circles for a few times, suddenly raised his head, and looked at the sunlight shining in at the door.
Jian Yi squinted at the sunshine for a moment, then stepped forward and walked out.
This world has been chaotic for many years, thanks to Qin Shiyu's long sleeves and good dance, this land is a little more peaceful than other places.
Jian Yi flew into the sky, wandered aimlessly for a while, and suddenly saw a monk lying down in a valley, his body was blue and purple, and he was already breathing in.
It was easy to see at a glance that it was poisoned. He flew all the way, but couldn't think of floating back. Then he descended to the cultivator's side, took out the medicinal pill he had brought with him, and handed it into the other's mouth. The medicinal pill was very effective, and the cultivator woke up groaning after a while.
By the time Wenxuan found him all the way, Jian Yi and the cultivator had already passed the stage of thanking him and not thanking him, and they were chatting happily.
Jian Jian waved goodbye to the cultivator and returned to Wenxuan with a smile.
"That one is... "
"New friend."
The simple answer took it for granted, but he didn't know what kind of stormy waves this sentence set off in Wenxuan's heart. New friend? In the past, Jian Jian only saw Wen Xuan, but he had never made any friends.
When he returned to the cave, Wenxuan saw more differences.
Jian Yi was actually very friendly to those little monsters, and soon became friends with them, and even became brothers with a few of them who were familiar with them. You know, in the past, it would be nice not to be hostile to these people who would surround Wenxuan, how could they be so friendly
When it was getting late, Wen Xuan finally couldn't help but ask.
"There are some changes... I want to try to change it." Jian Yi rubbed his head embarrassedly, "I want to try... go out."
I see. What Wenxuan said that day, Jian Jian still listened. Wenxuan couldn't help but feel relieved.
Simple turned sideways and looked at the sunset slanting in the courtyard.
He probably thought about something, and after a while, he suddenly said, "Senior brother, I want to go to Guiyue Island to have a look."
This surprise is no small matter. Guiyue Island, these three words are often reminded by Wenxuan himself during the nights when Wenxuan silently held his tail. But he never imagined that these three words would be spoken out of his simple mouth, and he would say this sentence.
Wenxuan nodded in relief, "You should go and have a look, you still..."
"I owe them an apology." Jian Yi added the second half of the sentence.
Then Jian Jian remembered what he had done, and couldn't help being silent. He used to be stubborn, thinking that everyone except him would only hurt Wenxuan, but now he suddenly realized that it was actually just his self-deception. He was superstitious in the original book, but it was only because the original book made him believe that Wenxuan had nothing but him.
If it wasn't for him taking the original book out of context and deliberately making Wenxuan misunderstand the cause of those injuries, maybe those people in Guiyue Island wouldn't lose their island owner, right
Jian Yi took two steps forward, as if going into the sunset.
Wen Xuan originally looked at him with relief, but when he saw his back elongated by the setting sun, he felt a sudden flicker in his heart.
His junior brother Jian finally walked out, from the narrow road that was only for him.
Will it go far? Wen Xuan suddenly felt a sense of unease in his heart.
But just when this kind of unease first appeared, Jian Jian turned around, stretched out his hand towards Wenxuan, and said with a smile, "Senior brother, come with me. They will be happy knowing that you are still here."
Wen Xuan put his hand on his, as if his feet were on the ground, and his heart suddenly felt at ease. Yes, his junior brother Jian, no matter how far he goes, will always be by his side.
The setting sun elongated their shadows together. They stood shoulder to shoulder, as they had been in many days.
But it's still a little different. After a while, the two shadows began to be in one place.
Jian Jian put his arms around Wen Xuan's shoulder and nibbled lightly on his neck.
"Senior brother, if I want to travel all over the world in the future, will you accompany me?"
"certainly."
Wen Xuan nodded happily, as if he made a lifetime commitment.
