This voice... It was clearly Lu Xiao.
But, why is he here
At this moment, Qiu Yutong only felt that his mind was blank, and his ears were buzzing, and he couldn't think at all. At this moment, he only had one thought—leave here immediately.
However, although his mind thought so, his legs and feet seemed to have taken root on the ground, and they were too stiff to move.
Seemingly aware of something, Lin Zhufeng glanced at Qiu Yutong cautiously, and said softly, "Are you okay?"
His voice was very soft, but in the bamboo forest ahead, the conversation between the two people stopped abruptly.
Then, someone suddenly shouted: "Who?!"
Following the stern shout, there was another loud bang of "Boom!" A burst of extremely violent gale, like overwhelming mountains and seas, came rushing in with gusts of turbulence! Large expanses of green and tall bamboo fell down on both sides! !
But in an instant, the lush bamboo forest in front of Qiu Yutong was completely razed to the ground by this violent wind!
The bamboo leaves scattered, the dust settled, and the cold and bright moonlight cast down. There was no cover on the flat ground, and only four people were left looking at each other.
A handsome young man looked at Lin Zhufeng in surprise, with a puzzled look on his face: "Zhufeng, what are you doing here in the middle of the night?... This one again?"
This handsome young man is naturally Lin Zhufeng's elder brother, Lin Yurong, the owner of Yuqin Palace.
"Uh, I..." Facing his brother's question, Lin Zhufeng looked a little hesitant, and didn't know how to explain it for a while, so he could only turn his head and look at Qiu Yutong.
However, Qiu Yutong didn't hear Lin Yurong's question at all, nor did he see Lin Zhufeng's eyes asking for help. His eyes just stared blankly at the stern man in black beside Lin Yurong. Can't hear anything else, can't see anything else.
That man used to be his most beloved little apprentice, the one he had raised for more than ten years, the one who would make him sweet-scented osmanthus cake... However, he was also the one who lied to him the most and humiliated him the most. The person who made his flesh and blood turn into mud, leaving no bones left...
It was the person he least wanted to see, and the person he was most afraid of seeing.
God seemed to have played a huge joke on him, turning his most beloved little apprentice into the source of his nightmares every night, and brought this person he least wanted to see in front of him.
Qiu Yutong stared at the other party stiffly, only feeling that the blood in her whole body was congealed.
Compared with the past, Lu Xiao now looks more mature and stable, and also more ruthless and restrained.
He was dressed in a black silk gown with dark golden cloud patterns, and between his handsome eyebrows was a gloomy and cold look. He had completely become a cold and powerful Yutian Demon Emperor, and he was never seen again. It looks half way past.
At this moment, his pair of dark and deep phoenix eyes were looking straight at Qiu Yutong, that eagle-like sharp gaze seemed to be able to penetrate all disguises in this world, no matter how complicated or delicate the disguise was.
Under such gaze, Qiu Yutong felt his scalp go numb, and a chill crept up his back, almost holding his breath involuntarily.
Lu Xiao stared at him heavily, without speaking.
After an unknown amount of time, Qiu Yutong's vest was drenched with sweat, and a sharp pain suddenly came from his palm. It turned out that under extreme tension, his nails had torn his palm.
relax, don't be like this...
Under the cover of the white gauze of the bamboo hat, Qiu Yutong took a light breath, forced herself to relax, and managed to stabilize her mind.
That's right, he was wearing a bamboo hat, but Lu Xiao couldn't recognize his own.
Lu Xiao stared at him for a long time, his pitch-black pupils slowly narrowed, and even the color became lighter, almost faintly feeling like they were about to turn into golden vertical pupils. This was a sign that the Demon Dragon Clan was extremely excited. At the same time, a dreamlike look of ecstasy gradually emerged on that originally extremely stern face.
Lu Xiao, he... what happened to him
Under such fanatical gazes, Qiu Yutong felt that the surrounding air was becoming thinner, but at this time, she couldn't turn around and run, so she could only stand still and face her little apprentice.
Lu Xiao couldn't restrain himself anymore, he took a step forward suddenly, his voice was extremely hoarse and trembling: "You, you..."
The extremely tense expression of the Yutian Demon Emperor made Lin Yurong seem to have misunderstood something, and his face turned pale: "Yutian Demon Emperor, this is my younger brother, he didn't mean to eavesdrop on us, really..."
Lin Yurong explained in a panic, but Lu Xiao didn't seem to have heard of it at all. Those pitch-black phoenix eyes were just staring at Qiu Yutong. Except for Qiu Yutong, he seemed to never see him again. Nothing else, nothing else to hear, nothing else to think of.
And his expression was even more dazed to the extreme, as if he had fallen into an extremely precious and absurd secret dream. This dream was what he longed for the most, something he didn't even dare to hope for, and it was something he could exchange with everything... Now this The dream suddenly appeared in front of him.
However, this dream is so fragile and illusory, maybe it will be shattered with a light touch, or with a slightly louder sound.
All of a sudden, the bamboo forest was terribly quiet, and the atmosphere was suffocating.
Lin Yurong was a little at a loss, turned to look at Lin Zhufeng again, and reprimanded sharply: "Zhufeng, it's all right for you to come to this bamboo forest in the middle of the night, why did you bring someone here casually? Who is this person? Why are you still wearing the bamboo forest?" Wearing a bamboo hat?"
"Uh..." Lin Zhufeng looked at Qiu Yutong, who was extremely stiff beside him, and then at Lu Xiao, who was in a daze on the opposite side. He seemed to understand something, and quickly coughed lightly, "Ahem, brother, this is... It’s my friend, he’s not in good health, his voice is bad, he can’t speak, he can’t see the wind, so he wears a bamboo hat.”
… What is Lin Zhufeng talking about
Qiu Yutong was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the young man was helping him to cover up his identity. He felt grateful, and then nodded slightly, admitting Lin Zhufeng's words.
"Zhufeng, don't lie to me." Lin Yurong couldn't help frowning.
And Lu Xiao was slightly startled, finally came back to his senses, and murmured: "Friend? Can't talk?"
"..." Qiu Yutong pursed her lips tightly, imagining herself as a saw-mouthed gourd.
Lu Xiao stared at the silent Qiu Yutong, his expression gradually changed from trance-like shock and ecstasy, to vague bewilderment, then to extreme bewilderment, and finally even a little pitiful... He seemed to be completely confused. I don't understand why this person in front of me refuses to recognize me.
Seeing the little apprentice's gaze, Qiu Yutong felt a slight pain in his heart, and involuntarily lowered his eyes, almost daring not to look at him.
Lu Xiao... Did he recognize him
He looked, seemed to be suffering...but, but...
I don't know how long it took, but Lu Xiao still didn't get any response. The stern and stern demon emperor looked extremely confused at this moment, and there was a kind of unbelievable sadness, like a vicious beast who couldn't find his way home. The beast, terrible and pitiful.
He stared blankly at Qiu Yutong for a long time, then suddenly remembered something, slowly twisted his neck, and looked at Lin Zhufeng beside him.
His gaze made the boy take a step back involuntarily.
Lu Xiao stared at him extremely fiercely, and suddenly shouted in a rage: "What kind of magic did you cast on him?! You are looking for death!!"
Following his low growl, a strong murderous aura full of bloody smell rushed towards his face like a raging tide!
No, Lu Xiao is going to... Qiu Yutong's heart shuddered suddenly, he didn't have time to think about anything, he turned sideways to block Lin Zhufeng!
But his actions were just adding fuel to the flames at this moment, Lu Xiao's eyes turned red, and he jumped over, reaching out to lift Qiu Yutong's bamboo hat!
"What are you doing?!" Lin Zhufeng plucked up his courage, waved Tianshuibi casually, and used the newly learned "Moonset Crow" to block Lu Xiao's hand.
In fact, with Lin Zhufeng's cultivation base, it is impossible to stop Lu Xiao, but for some reason, Lu Xiao did not fight back, but just watched the bright sky and water, and wiped it from his arm obliquely. past.
This sky, water and green, and the flowing "moonset and black crow", made him froze, and he didn't lift Qiu Yutong's hat again.
After a long time, he asked Lin Zhufeng in a trembling voice, "Did he teach you?"
Lin Zhufeng was stunned, and then he realized that the trick "Moonset Cry" he used just now might have leaked something, so he hurriedly prevaricated: "What does it matter to you? He is willing to teach me, you can control it." is it on?"
"I..." Lu Xiao's breathing stopped severely, his thin lips trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it at all.
He froze for a while, then slowly turned his eyes to look at Qiu Yutong, his eyes were sad and helpless, as if he was begging for something, humbly begging for something, even if it was just a simple "Xiaoer ", even if it's just a slight nod.
Seeing him like that, Qiu Yutong only felt tightness in his chest and a lump in his throat. He almost wanted to take a step forward, just like in the past, to gently touch the thick and soft hair of the little apprentice.
Lu Xiao, he... He should have recognized himself.
He looked distressed and in need of some reassurance.
But, but... This person has been lying to himself, maybe now he is lying to himself again by acting like this... Qiu Yutong, have you forgotten the lesson from the beginning? Have you forgotten everything you have suffered? Do you still want to be so stupid, do you want to be so cheap? !
Qiu Yutong gritted her teeth tightly, but finally remained silent.
Lu Xiao stared at him blankly, the blood color on his face gradually faded, turning into a gray and pale.
Seeing the little apprentice like that, Qiu Yutong felt as if a heavy boulder was pressed against her chest, and she could hardly breathe... No, I can't be soft-hearted, think about the matter of Yaowangzhuang, think about Cuiwei Hantan, think about myself How could the torture and humiliation he had suffered just because of a pleading look from the other party, just, just... He couldn't be dizzy anymore.
Lu Xiao tremblingly said: "You, what happened to you?"
"..." Qiu Yutong couldn't bear it any longer, turned around in extreme embarrassment, and hurried out of the bamboo forest.
Lin Zhufeng gave Lu Xiao a hard look, and followed after him.
"What's going on?" Lin Yurong asked softly.
Lu Xiao stared at the direction where the two disappeared, and said in a hoarse voice, "It's nothing."
…
After returning to the guest house in Cuilin, Qiu Yutong was still in a daze.
Why did Lu Xiao suddenly appear on Miaoyin Island? What did he do with Lin Yurong? He just looked like that, did he recognize himself
... probably recognized it.
After all, even though he was wearing a bamboo hat, his current body had been with him day and night for decades... Even when Lu Xiao was a teenager, he pretended to be afraid of thunder, coaxed himself to sleep with him, and even pretended to have nightmares, Hugging herself like that... Thinking of the innumerable lies of the little apprentice, Qiu Yutong only felt a dull pain in his chest again.
Lin Zhufeng looked at Qiu Yutong's face, hesitated for a moment, and poured him a cup of hot fragrant tea: "Master Qiufeng, drink some hot tea."
"Thank you." Qiu Yutong took the Xiangpian tea in a daze, took a sip in a daze, but didn't know what it was like.
"Lord Qiufeng, that person just now... seems to be your former disciple? Is it the Demon Emperor Lu Xiao who was corrupt and finally fell into the devil?" Lin Zhufeng said cautiously.
Qiu Yutong subconsciously wanted to refute: "He's not a trick..."
Speaking of this, he paused slightly, and couldn't help but smiled wryly. At this moment, he actually wanted to defend Lu Xiao.
In fact, now this Lu Xiao doesn't need to defend him at all, because he is already strong enough, deep enough, and cold enough, and will never be bullied or hurt by anyone again.
"He's not... not my disciple." Qiu Yutong was silent for a moment, then changed his words in a low voice.
"Oh..." Lin Zhufeng showed an expression of enlightenment, and then patted himself on the forehead vigorously, "Yes, with his appearance, you naturally kicked him out of the school long ago, right?"
Qiu Yutong looked down at the ground, but did not answer Lin Zhufeng's words.
"This kind of scoundrel should be expelled from the sect! Master Qiufeng, what you did is absolutely right! According to me, just expelling him from the sect will make him cheaper..."
During the time when Lin Zhufeng was learning swords, he admired Qiu Yutong so much that he even hated this villain Lu Xiao. Pain, said: "I'm a little tired, Zhufeng you go back first."
"Oh." Lin Zhufeng blinked, answered honestly, and then carefully hung the Tianshuibi in his hand on the bedroom wall, and then retreated respectfully.
After Lin Zhufeng left, Qiu Yutong sat blankly on the edge of the bed, looking at the lamp on the table like beans, feeling confused.
What should we do now
With Lu Xiao's appearance just now, there are eight out of ten that he recognized himself. Even if he didn't recognize himself, he must be very suspicious. It will be a matter of time before he reveals his secrets.
However, I can't face him at all now... As long as I see him, all those messy memories from the past, like the rising tide of sea water, all rush up.
Yaowangzhuang washed the marrow, Cuiwei Hantan took out the alchemy, and then the flesh and blood turned into mud, and the soul flew away, those rhetorical deceptions, those extremely humiliating feelings/events...
He didn't want revenge, he didn't want to reprimand, but he didn't want any more interaction either.
He is so tired.
Qiu Yutong naturally knew that she was running away. As the master of Feilai Peak in Shuo Xuecheng, this was really worthless and embarrassing. But he really has no choice, he doesn't want to fight with Lu Xiao, and he can't face it calmly... Otherwise, let's go.
That's right, before Lu Xiao can react, leave Miaoyin Island as soon as possible, and then find a hidden small place in the countryside to hide first, this is the best way.
Without further ado, let's go tonight.
In a short while, Qiu Yutong made up his mind, he didn't hesitate anymore, got up and took off the sky and water from the wall, and lightly blew out the oil lamp on the table.
After doing all this, he hesitated for a moment, and instead of opening the door, he turned to the back of the house, gently pushed open the back window of the house, intending to sneak through the window and leave.
Then he froze.
"Master." Lu Xiao stood outside the window, looking at him with deep eyes.
Qiu Yutong's eyes widened in surprise, and she took a step back suddenly, almost tripping: "You, you..."
Lu Xiao looked at his flustered and defensive look, his chest heaved involuntarily, his eyes dimmed a bit, then he softly snorted coldly, put his left hand on the window sill, and the whole person flitted in lightly and landed in the air. In front of Qiu Yutong: "Why, Master is in a hurry to leave?"
At this moment, the bright moonlight came in from the window. Lu Xiao was very tall with broad shoulders. Although Qiu Yutong was slender, he was still shrouded in the shadow of the other party.
This feeling of oppression was too strong, he couldn't help but took two steps back, and opened his mouth with great difficulty, his voice was as dry as if it had been polished by sandpaper: "...you, what are you here for?"
