"Wait for you for a long time, you finally woke up."
In the silent room, this voice was eccentric and twisted. If Chu nightning can open his eyes and see, he will find that the sister is sitting on the edge of the couch, staring at him with a smile, like a spider looking at the creatures that fall into the web.
"How is it, did you sleep comfortably?"
Chu nightning didn't answer immediately, moved a bit, and found that his spiritual power had only recovered less than 20% at the moment, and he was also bound by the immortal rope, and blindfolded his eyes with a black ribbon.
"… "
At this time, panic is useless. Chu nightning has always been fearless. He knows very well what result he wants, so he also knows how to deal with it calmly. In his two lives, he has only been dazed in front of one person.
Except for that person, no one will let him be in chaos.
So Chu nightning was silent, slowly stroking the broken memory and the situation before the coma. Before his consciousness was ups and downs, he had heard some movements around him intermittently, but now he tried his best to piece together those broken words.
And at this moment, the door of the secret room banged open, and Nangong Liu came back. Holding a bunch of fresh oranges, he shouted as soon as he entered the door: "My dear brother, the oranges have been picked. The ones I picked are those with small circles at the bottom. This kind of taste is extra sweet..." Before he finished speaking, he saw Chu nightning on the bed, "Ah? Is the favored brother awake?"
Hearing this title, Chu nightning's already pale face became more and more gloomy.
Favorite Concubine... Concubine Chu
So the so-called best friend is...
The teacher took the orange handed by Nangong Liu, smiled and touched his head, and said: "You did a good job. But I and this Chu Guifei have something to say, you go out first and play by yourself. a while."
"Can't I stay here and play? I can help you peel the oranges."
"It's not good for you to keep it." The teacher said, "There are some words that adults can listen to, but children can't."
Nangong Liu muttered ignorantly, turned around and went out.
The room was very quiet for a while, only the sound of breathing and the crackling of candles could be heard.
The teacher picked an orange, skillfully peeled it, and peeled off the white silk. When he did this, he chatted with Chu Wanning as usual: "Did you hear who that person was just now?"
"… "
"You should be familiar with his voice."
Peel the oranges and hand them to Chu Wanning's lips: "Try it, the oranges on Jiaoshan were planted by Xu Shuanglin himself. He is very proficient in this way and should be very sweet."
Chu nightning turned his face.
The teacher said slowly: "Look at you, you will lose your temper as soon as you wake up."
Chu nightning was silent for a while, and said coldly: "Where are the others?"
"Who?"
"You know who I'm talking about."
The teacher raised his eyebrows slightly: "Do you want to ask the ink?"
"… "
Seeing him silent, the teacher smiled softly: "You really care about him. The first word to wake up is to find him, and I don't even ask who I am. For a person who has practiced your life, no It's worth it."
The man who was blindfolded pursed his lips, and the line of his chin became more and more haggard.
The teacher stared at it for a while, and felt that the evil fire in the chest was growing. But he prides himself on being calm and doesn't rush into anything.
One should eat gracefully, without showing teeth and without dripping residue. The eating method of swallowing flesh and bones like Ta Xianjun is too hasty, and the delicious food has not been chewed carefully, so there is only one empty bowl left.
It was the reincarnation of a hungry dog, and Shi Mingjing didn't like it.
So there was a fire under him, but he still slowly drizzled his own celery with fresh juice and rubbed the fleshy texture. Just cook until crispy and fragrant, and then take small bites into the belly.
"Ask another gossip. Don't you want to eat the oranges that are delivered to your mouth?" The teacher chuckled, "You are so stubborn, how did you serve the emperor in the past?"
"take away."
"I think it's better for you to eat it. You haven't gotten any water in these days, and your lips are cracked."
Chu nightning only gritted his teeth: "Where is the ink burning?"
The teacher stared at him for a while, slowly, no longer smiling.
"Whether it's this life or the last life, whether you have memory or no memory, you only have ink burning in your eyes. Teacher..." The word was not spoken, and it was known that he was aphasia and stopped immediately.
But it missed the trembling of Chu nightning.
The teacher narrowed his eyes: "Tell me, where is the ink burning?"
He looked down at Chu Wanning and saw that the last bit of blood on his lips was slowly fading.
"That person is impulsive, has no brain, his ideas are naive and ridiculous, and his character is not good. What did you like about him?"
"… "
"Face? Spiritual power? Sweet mouth?"
In the end, it was the animal desire that he had held back for so long. The more he spoke, the more fishy his tone became.
Especially when I saw that Chu nightning began to bite his lips and seemed to try to suppress some emotions, the teacher felt more and more dry.
The words began to run rampant in a more sinister direction.
"Or his ability in bed?"
Chu nightning's pale cheeks were full of anger, and blushed because of anger: "Shut up."
The teacher did not intend to shut up. The man who finally got it, if he doesn't play it thoroughly, why should he stop? He smiled and said: "Chu Fei still doesn't know that after you died in the previous life, Mo Ran gave you the posthumous title of Qingzhen."
He captured the slightest expression on Chu nightning's face with great interest, and the eyebrows became more and more prosperous.
"It sounds a little funny, but it's appropriate. In the end, in this life, you are really clean, and you have only been defiled by him alone. But in this way, there is actually no comparison." Slowly, "You have never tried someone else, and naturally you will only think he is the best."
Fingertips slid down.
Nose, lips, chin, Adam's apple.
Chu nightning was trembling slightly, and the blue veins on his wrist were violent. He wanted to break free from the shackles of the immortal cable, but he couldn't move after all.
"Don't waste your efforts. Whether Chu Guifei wants to untie, or wants to know the whereabouts of the ink, I can satisfy you." The conversation turned, "But, you are my spoils of war, you have to accompany me first. Play a game?"
"… What do you want to do."
The teacher smiled: "I want your mind to come out of that person a little bit. Don't think about him, think about me, how about it?"
"You are the one who was gullible in the previous life. What else can you think about."
If you listen carefully, you can hear the suffocation and pain in Chu Wanning's voice.
Chu nightning seems to be trying his best to suppress some of his emotions, but he can't suppress it, and he is about to burst out.
The teacher smiled and said: "Yes, it's me. But why don't you take a guess, who is my true identity?"
"If you want to say it, say it, or don't say it."
"Oh, when can you not be fierce." Shi Mei sighed and said, "Well, Chu Guifei once said that a big gamble will hurt your body, and a small gamble will hurt your body, but if you come, you will hurt your body. It's not as good as us. Come and gamble."
"… "
"However," Shi Mei paused, "Before I start, I have to offend a little and take a look at how many clothes you are wearing."
Seeing that Chu nightning did not say anything, but the lines of the lower half of his face were involuntarily tightened, and the teacher's expression became softer. He counted them one by one, and finally counted out a total of five clothes and waist seals. .
"Then I will give you five chances. If you answer correctly within five times, I will tell you the whereabouts of the ink burning." After a pause, he continued, "However, every time you answer wrong, I will remove yours. One piece of clothing. If Concubine Chu hasn’t answered the question after all five pieces of clothing have been removed, then…”
He didn't go on, just smiled, and the tip of his pale pink tongue subconsciously licked his lips. Then he sat quietly, waiting for Chu Wanning's guess. Chu nightning did not speak, and he was not in a hurry, so he continued to wait.
He is very free at the moment, he has time.
However, as little by little time passed, Chu nightning still did not respond. The eyebrows of the teacher raised up - he has time, but he may not have patience.
"You're guessing."
Chu nightning finally said: "Go away."
The teacher's face became gloomy: "... Now you are in my hands, what can be done and what can't be done, you should know it yourself."
"… "
"Chu nightning. You don't have the bargaining chip to talk to me about the conditions. The emperor's mind is not good, maybe he can't compare with you, and sometimes it's up to you, but I'm different."
The teacher said coldly: "You are in my hands, it would be better to be good."
He waited for a while, and when he saw that Chu nightning was still silent, his tone became harder: "You don't want to toast, don't eat and drink fine. Don't think that if you don't speak, I will have no way to take you."
Saying that, the slender and cold white fingers have been stroked up and put on the girdle of Chu nightning. Then he slowly stroked the seal, his fingertips slid over it, like a blade cutting fish.
"Listen, I count to three, if you don't speak again, the consequences will be borne by yourself." The teacher said, leaving a thin light in his eyes.
He actually didn't know whether he hoped that Chu nightning would guess, or that he did not want Chu nightning to guess. But guessing it or not, it doesn't matter anymore at this time. There is no turning back, and he only thinks about how to reveal his true face.
It must be exciting enough and bloody enough. After all, the man in front of him has played against him for two lifetimes. Now that he has won, he has to carefully lick the fruits of victory.
"one."
There seemed to be a glimmer of victory in front of him.
"two."
What will happen to Chu nightning? anger? Grief? Fear
He waited and watched, lips parted.
"Three... Well, Concubine Chu is really very virtuous, and it's no wonder that stepping on the fairy will make you addicted." The teacher was half-joking and half-serious, "Since you don't guess, then we will come to some rough. You... "
"Hua Binan."
His voice was cold.
The teacher's fingers were slightly stunned, and the action of wanting to solve Chu nightning's waist seal froze, and then he smiled: "Guess half right. Continue?"
"… "
He reveals a fox-like cunning, which may appear cunning to others, but the teacher is so elegant, no matter when it is like a lotus flower.
He believes that Chu nightning will not guess the last layer of truth, he is smug, he-
"I'd rather you were really dead."
The smile on the teacher's face froze. After a while, he asked, "What did you say?"
The man on the bed's voice was cold, without the slightest heat.
"In the last life, that time the sky split, that heavy snow. I would rather you were really dead."
The teacher stared at him, and he prepared a belly to sing, and suddenly there was nowhere to pour, and he became aphasia.
His half-raised hand was hanging in the air, not knowing where to go, suddenly at a loss.
"Shi Mingjing." A soft sigh, but like a bee sting in a trance, "is it you?"
"… "
Although it is a questioning sentence, there is no rising voice.
The teacher lowered his eyelashes, and no one could see his expression for a while. After a while, he chuckled: "I'm not dead, I let you down."
He didn't want to admit defeat, but there was already a bit of disinterest in his tone.
The teacher said: "I am indeed the teacher Mingjing from the previous life. From your previous life, the world of stepping on Xianjun. It is not the same person as the child who has been with you in this life." Paused, " Talk to me, let you loose."
He said that he untied the immortal rope, and then put his hand on the silk belt of Chu Wanning's eyes, and took it off with a little force.
The peach blossom eye meets the phoenix eye, and the two look at each other, Gu Jing has no waves.
"Ask Master."
Chu nightning was ready in his heart, but at this time it was more and more gloomy, he looked at him: "You still know that I am your master."
Hearing him say this, the teacher smiled tenderly, but only then did he know what a sharp dagger was hidden under his tenderness.
"Well, of course I do. You hold the umbrella for me, and I have never forgotten it."
Chu nightning looks weak, but this can't change the natural stubbornness in his eyebrows. He stared at the teacher for a while, his lips and teeth closed, the words were crushed, and it was extremely cold: "You bastard."
The teacher smiled and said: "Acceptance." After a pause, he asked again, "But when did the master guess my identity? In the previous life?"
Chu nightning didn't answer, just looked at him coldly.
There was resentment in those eyes, but disappointment was the most luxuriant.
The teacher thought about it: "No, it will not be in the previous life. If you already knew that I was Hua Binan in the previous life, you should tell the guilt when you tore the cracks in time and space."
He raised his eyelashes: "It's this life. Or, not long ago?... When you were in Dragon Blood Mountain, did you hear a lot of the conversation between me and Mo Ran."
"… "
"Forget it, it's not important." The teacher smiled, "Anyway, you are in my palm now, and you can't escape."
Chu nightning became more and more silent.
In fact, among the three apprentices, the one he can't see through is the teacher. He was willing to accept this apprentice at that time because the teacher was obedient, gentle, able to be anxious, worried about people's worries, and able to treat others gently and kindly. These are the attitudes that Chu nightning admires very much. He couldn't do it himself, so he appreciated it, so he accepted this apprentice.
But sometimes, he always felt that something was wrong. For example, Xue Zhengyi said that the teacher was an orphan who he picked up in the war, but when the teacher talked about his life experience, he occasionally had some prefaces that didn't fit. That gesture, very much like someone lied and then forgot the details.
There are also times when the attitude of the teacher towards things will suddenly be a little weird - like a domesticated bulldog, it seems to be obedient, but as long as it smells blood, it can't help but look fierce.
However, after observing for a few years, I have never seen any unjust actions by the teacher. Chu nightning felt that it was his dazzling eyes.
He is like a hedgehog, his body is sharp, only his abdomen is soft.
Like his apprentices, he hid all those who treated him well under his soft stomach.
Regarding the teacher, he once wandered between trust and distrust, and he also had reservations and temptations, but later chose to trust. So the knife pierced through the hedgehog's abdomen, and the blood was flowing all over the place.
The teacher asked: "How much do you remember about the past?"
"… "
He asked again, "Isn't it bad for you to stand by and watch? Why stop me?"
"… "
There are too many anger in the past life, and finally I can ask in this life. The teacher is unwilling to stop, endlessly: "Why didn't you kill the Emperor Treading Immortal in the end and help him reincarnate?"
Hearing the last sentence, Chu nightning finally raised his eyes: "He is different from you."
The teacher slightly paused: "What's the difference. If I say that my mind is vicious, why is he not full of blood?"
Chu nightning stared at him: "You know what you have done."
"So what? Even if it's my Gu, isn't it the one he killed?" The teacher said, "You saw it with your own eyes in the past life, half of the lives of the rivers and mountains, Xue Zhengyi, Wang Chuqing, Jiang Xi, Ye Wangxi... these Who did people die at?"
He raised his hand slowly and looked at himself with narrow fingers and rounded nails.
A pair of delicate and clean palms, soft and delicate, and spotless.
The teacher glanced at him and smiled: "Is it me?"
"..." The anger was soaring, and he was speechless for a moment.
"I don't want to kill Confucianism, and I didn't want to kill Xue Zhengyi. So I shouldn't be looking for me to collect debts and ask for my life." The teacher said, "What did I do? It's just a flower for him. I've lived so much, I haven't killed anyone with my own hands."
The teacher continued to smile and said: "So in the end, the knife was taken by him, and the person was stabbed by him. It has nothing to do with me, and the eight bitter and eternal hatred flowers will not bring him any new hatred. All his desires are It belongs to him, and the Gu curse can only magnify it. If this is to be blamed on me, I will be very aggrieved."
Every time he said a word, the nausea in Chu nightning's heart increased by a point. Finally, when he heard that he felt wronged, Chu nightning raised his eyes suddenly, his eyes were like ice: "What can you be wronged?"
"It was he who moved his hand, why should Master blame me?"
"You don't know who he is!"
The teacher said: "Of course I know who he is, and I am afraid that the teacher respects you."
The orange had a strand of white silk stuck in the fingers, and the teacher was too dirty, took out the white handkerchief and wiped it carefully, and then enumerated one by one: "Why did the ink burn to slaughter the Confucian door? Because he has hatred in his heart. Why can Mo Ran kill Xue Zhengyi? Because he is afraid. Why does Mo Ran humiliate you? Because he has desire in his heart."
The teacher said, raised his eyelashes and glanced at Chu Wanning: "When others stab him, he can't forgive. When others give him benefits, he can't refuse. At present, he can't do a few desires - this is the beauty. his nature."
Chu nightning gritted his teeth and said: "Shi Mingjing. You erase his pure and good thoughts, expand the hatred in his heart thousands of times, and then say that what he does is his own desires, don't you think you are ridiculous? Whose hatred won't destroy the world after it's magnified to the extreme, do you?"
"Then who let him have hatred? Who let him have ambition in his bones? Who let him have desires?" The teacher smiled and said, "If he has the ability, his heart is like a child, and he has never had any bad intentions, then Chang Hate Flower can't make any waves. So I should blame him for being unclean. He's just a layman."
Hearing that Chu nightning's face was very ugly, he was about to speak again, and then listened to the teacher's complement.
"Man is responsible for his own desires, there is no debate about that."
"… "
If it was said that Chu nightning still wanted to talk to him before, when he came to this sentence, he suddenly felt that there was no need to say anything, and it was not worth saying. Chu nightning turned his face away.
The teacher saw his expression and shook his head: "Master, you are too partial to him."
"… "
"In your eyes, everything he does has reasons and is understandable."
"Then tell me, who should I understand." Chu nightning was extremely cold, "Are you?"
"..." The teacher was silent for a moment and smiled, "So the teacher still likes him?"
Chu nightning's eyes are like the moon reflected in the ice lake.
"So, in the past life and this life, I have played with Master for two lifetimes. Even if I win, I still can't compare to him."
Chu nightning coldly: "What do you compare with him?"
The teacher narrowed his eyes: "Do you really only have such a few comments on me? There is nothing else?"
Chu nightning did not return to him immediately, looking at his expression, he seemed to think seriously for a moment, and then he raised the eyelashes curtain, very cold and very calm.
"Have."
The teacher smiled: "What is it?"
Chu nightning said expressionlessly: "You don't have to compare with the ink, you can't even compare with Xu Shuanglin. At least he still has affection and dares to recognize it. He is not like you, Hua Binan."
In the end, he didn't even call him Shi Mingjing anymore.
Chu nightning said: "You are a bastard."
