Under the old tree, Pei Yunyin had enough to eat and drink, and leaned comfortably against the giant tree, watching the two juniors steal a bowl of soup each, and walked quickly towards the back.
The young man narrowed his eyes lazily and nodded in relief.
But not long after, the two of them came back for the second time, both of them looked unhappy.
Xu Wan'er was okay, saying that the other party didn't accept the kindness and didn't understand the style. This awkwardness is not a big deal in Pei Yunyin's mind, but Xie Heng's side is much more serious. When Pei Yunyin approached secretly, the young man was sitting under the tree with his head down and his shoulders shrugged, tearing off the bark next to his hand inch by inch. , crushed into powder.
"Ahem!"
Pei Yunyin covered her mouth and coughed lightly, seeing Xie Heng raised her head, she casually said: "Little brother, what's bothering you, tell me to make senior brother happy... Ah no, let senior brother give you advice?"
Xie Heng just smiled wryly.
The young man's eyelids were heavy, his brows drooped, and a gloomy look appeared in his star pupils. He raised his head slightly, looking at the clear blue sky, and the faint wandering clouds were reflected in his pupils.
"Senior brother," he said softly, "If the person you like... doesn't like you, but someone very similar to you, what would you do?"
Pei Yunyin regained his energy immediately, his eyes lit up and said: "Your little lover uses you as a substitute?"
Xie Heng almost didn't bring it up in one breath.
He shook his head and said helplessly, "It's not that serious, it's just..."
The ending sound disappeared quietly, Xie Heng gradually froze.
What Pei Yunyin said makes sense.
He didn't expect this just now, but now the words awaken the dreamer, Xie Ziyou can even call the wrong name, he is not a substitute, what is it
Xie Heng was tired and annoyed, he really didn't want to admit Pei Yunyin's words.
But after thinking hard for a long time, he couldn't find a more appropriate description, so he could only hang his head sadly, and said in a low voice: "... just count it as a substitute."
"It's easy to talk about," Pei Yunyin said, "Who is the other party? Is it alive or dead?"
Guan Heng
Xie Heng grew up with Xie Ziyou in the Xie Mansion since he was a child, but he had never heard of this name.
Not to mention the name, "Guan" is a rare surname, and it was not included in the famous families of the world. Xie Heng spread out his memory and looked it up line by line, but even a person surnamed Guan Neither could be found.
In the end, Xie Heng could only shake his head in distress, and said in frustration: "I don't know, I don't know."
"check!"
Pei Yunyin slapped his thigh: "Investigate right away, I want to see, which turtle grandson dares to rob someone from our Xuanlingzong's junior brother!"
Xie Heng was taken aback by the sound of his leg slapping, subconsciously said: "What happens after we find out?"
Pei Yunyin chuckled, blinked his eyes, put his five fingers together on the side of his neck, and swiped quickly and hard.
It's a throat-slitting gesture.
Xie Heng: "..."
He was almost terrified, thinking so cruel
Conscience propped up the raft and roared against the wind and waves in his mind. Xie Heng said weakly: "Killing people is never the best way to solve things. Compared with violence, we are better..."
"Let him be ruined!"
Pei Yunyin's voice was sonorous and powerful, and his eyes were shining brightly: "I didn't expect that, little brother, you are quite flexible in your mind. It was my brother who was reckless just now."
"That's right, a dead person is the most difficult person in the world to surpass. Instead of simply killing someone brutally, we should find him out, and break down one by one according to the advantages that your little lover likes most in him."
"Do all this in front of your little lover, let him see the ugly, filthy, selfish true face of the person he likes with his own eyes, and then when he is disappointed and vulnerable, take the opportunity to step in and replace him!"
Xie Heng: "..."
The corner of the young man's mouth twitched, watching his senior brother in front of him beaming and spitting, he silently swallowed the words "communicate well".
Wrong, all wrong.
He shouldn't have discussed this issue with Senior Brother Pei, even Senior Brother Cheng's icy face is more reliable than Pei Yunyin at this moment.
But Xie Heng tried to end the topic, but Pei Yunyin refused to agree.
The young man's five fingers were like claws, firmly holding the young man's shoulder, his eyes were bright, and he looked at him without blinking.
"Where's your little lover?" he repeated. "What are you going to do with your little lover?"
What else can I do
Xie Heng thought helplessly, can he control who Xie Ziyou likes
"Hey, you have to race against time!"
Pei Yunyin had an expression of hating iron for being weak, and earnestly said: "He is willing to use you as a substitute, which shows that you still have advantages and status compared to others. There is only one thing we have to do now, which is to use this The advantage has expanded.”
Xie Heng asked in a daze, "How to expand?"
"Raw rice and cooked rice." Pei Yunyin's eyes were burning, "The first time is very important to everyone, and men are the same. Hey, I said little brother, do you know that there is a saying that is especially suitable for you now?"
"Call—even if I can't get your heart, I have to get your people first."
…
In the end, Xie Heng didn't dare to agree to Pei Yunyin's trick.
Even though at the moment Pei Yunyin mentioned it, his heart trembled violently, and countless memory fragments flashed in front of him, like pieces of fine and sharp glass, each of which reflected a delicate and slender boy.
With stars in her lips and peach blossoms in her eyes, her long hair like a waterfall slides down her shoulders, her beautiful collarbone is half covered, and there are bright and charming carvings from the corners of her eyes to the tip of her hair.
But when he thought of being strong against Xie Ziyou, Xie Heng panicked badly.
In a trance, I heard the roar of ice and snow, all horses were silent, and a voice said faintly: How do you want to die
Facing Pei Yunyin who was eager to try, Xie Heng had no choice but to suppress his heart, and persuaded him for a long time, saying that the secret realm was dangerous, and he would make plans after going out.
Pei Yunyin was very sorry.
Several people packed up their things and set off again, but this time, everyone's brows were stained with worries.
Fortunately, not long after, the lush jungle around him suddenly disappeared, and the spreading vines seemed to be cut by a blade, blocked by an invisible barrier in mid-air, and passing through this barrier, a vast wilderness suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
The green grass is green, the blue sky is like a cover, and dark red shrubs are scattered here and there on the endless grassland, and in the distant sky, a colorful trickle is winding and enchanting, constantly changing its gorgeous colors.
Even though the distance was far away, they could clearly see a willow tree growing beside the river.
The trunk is dry and has a strange shape. The rotten bark has cracked hideous openings, which are mottled and rough like scales. Even the hot sunlight can't smooth the layers of ravines on the surface, and shines into the depths of the trunk full of fungus.
The top of the branches is full of vitality, thousands of willows are raised high, and the green leaves are connected in series to form a graceful curtain. When the breeze blows, the branches and leaves flutter gently, and the tips of the branches flicker like fireflies.
The fireflies floated leisurely, continuously drifting down from the branches, falling into the river, suspended on the calm river for a long time, and slowly extinguished.
Xu Wan'er blinked her eyes and asked curiously, "Is that the legendary Liuhe?"
"That's right," Cheng Chengbai said seriously, "Be careful."
Xie Heng shook his head, got rid of distracting thoughts, mobilized his spirit, and raised his vigilance.
As soon as he stepped into this grassland—the fertile field thousands of miles away, stretching as far as the eye can see, the green grass under the bright sunshine seems to be full of vitality, but he can't see any life in the grassland, Xie Heng felt his heart tremble slightly.
It seems that there are countless pairs of eyes, hidden behind every green leaf and every straw, hidden by the breeze, casting a faint gaze on them and the group.
Salivating, greedy, scalp tingling.
"Shin!"
Cheng Chengbai stepped forward first, the long sword was unsheathed, the snow-bright sword body swayed in the sun, displaying a cold and sharp murderous intent, the sword was sharp, and drew sharp and straight lines in the air.
Where the sword energy passed, green leaves were flying, and slender off-white filaments floated in the air, like catkins, and the grass roots were opened together with the ground, revealing the dark brown soil.
Nothing at all.
Is it wrong
Everyone frowned.
With their level of cultivation, every little bit of a bad premonition in their hearts may be closely related to the truth. Under the blessing of luck, no one will ignore the details—those who ignore the details have already rotted to the bone.
Xie Ziyou followed behind, equally disturbed.
The wind blows the grass and the grass is low, and there are small light white flowers scattered on the grassland. The closer to the river bank, the more beautiful the flowers are, gathered together in groups of three or four, like clusters of snow-white cotton wool.
There is a faint fragrance at the end of the nose.
But there was dead silence.
There are no bees, no butterflies, and they can gradually hear the gurgling sound of the river, but the wind has stagnated, and the whole space seems to freeze, only a few of them are alive and breathing.
… No, not right either.
Xie Ziyou blinked.
Under the bright golden sunlight, he vaguely saw a small bee with a golden thread tattooed on it, piercing through the void, falling into the clouds, and rushing straight towards him.
"Youyou!"
A familiar voice sounded in his mind, Xie Ziyou held the bee in his palm, and said in surprise and joy: "System?"
"Yes, I'm back." The voice said.
As the sound sounded, the surrounding scenery rippled like a river.
Xie Ziyou vaguely caught a glimpse of a rainbow from the corner of his eye, beautiful colorful colors, flying willow branches below, and green leaves swirling, but when he turned his head to look for it, everything disappeared quickly, and there was only an endless grassland around.
Not taking this matter to heart, Xie Ziyou said angrily to the system in his mind: "You still know to come back?"
He paused, and then muttered: "It's just to verify the identity data, and it took so long to verify. Fortunately, I am smart and wise, and can judge for myself, otherwise, when you come back, the day lily will be cold..."
"Sorry, Youyou," the system said softly, "Something happened, I have to investigate carefully."
"...All right." Xie Ziyou nodded.
He raised his chin, pointed slightly at the blurry black figure not far away, raised the corners of his mouth, and said softly: "Come on, I'll give you a chance to make up for your mistakes. See, the one in front is Guan Heng, but he doesn't remember what happened in the last world now." He even suspects that I see others through him."
"Think about it for me, is there any way to help him recover his memory?"
As soon as the voice fell, the surroundings fell silent.
The system's gentle tone suddenly changed, with a hint of coldness, like the coldness of the tip of a knife, falling in Xie Ziyou's ears.
It paused word by word: "Youyou, the results of my search show that this person is not Guan Heng."
