After thinking back and forth, I didn't even let go of some details from a hundred years ago, and I did find some clues.
For example, every time Yin Wushu was injured for no reason, it must be when Xie Bai's own essence was not bad, and the reason why Xie Baijing was not bad was often because he was affected by the Hundred Ghosts Raising Corpse Formation a few days before that and was in unbearable pain. Then Yin Wushu couldn't stand it anymore, and used his spiritual power to help him reconcile...
Things that were not clear back then, now reversed, are so clear that they cannot be clearer.
Xie Bai lowered his eyes and remained silent for a while, then suddenly asked tentatively: "...you consciously alienated me for a while at the beginning, was it because you found out that the Hundred Ghosts Raising Corpse Formation was related to that person?"
Yin Wushu responded almost subconsciously, nodded and said, "Almost."
As a result, as soon as he said that, the fish scale in Xie Bai's hand suddenly lit up, and then gradually revealed a thin line of blood.
Xie Bai: "..."
Yin Wushu: "..."
Chapter 48
For a moment, Yin Wushu's face changed very wonderfully. Xie Bai could see from his face such things as "I always have to pay back when I come out to play", "Thirty years in the east of the river and thirty years in the west of the river", "Where do you often walk by the river?" There are a series of psychological activities such as "don't wet shoes", "the child's wings are too hard to control when he grows up".
He had never seen Yin Wushu's expression so straightforward, and he thought it was a little funny for a moment, and even temporarily overwhelmed the subtle tension in his heart.
But it was only for a short moment. In the blink of an eye, this funny atmosphere slipped away, and the room fell into a slightly awkward silence.
if…
If the intentional or unintentional estrangement was not due to the connection between the Hundred Ghosts Raising Corpse Formation and that person, what would it be...
Xie Bai's slender fingers unconsciously scratched the back of the little black cat's neck, his gaze dropped slightly, and landed on the open space between him and Yin Wushu, he didn't intend to change the topic, obviously he was waiting for Yin Wushu to start talking again One more reason.
Yin Wushu changed his sitting position, clasping his hands loosely on his knees. He squinted his eyes for a while, then looked up at Xie Bai, and suddenly said, "Let's change the question."
"..." Xie Bai scratched the cat's fingers for a moment, then raised his eyes, "Why?"
Yin Wushu looked at him indifferently, but didn't speak immediately. His eyes reflected the sunlight coming in from the window, as if wrapped in a layer of clear glass, dark inside and bright outside.
Xie Bai's heart skipped a beat when he saw it.
The atmosphere in the room became even weirder for a while.
However, Yin Wushu was not silent for too long. He raised his chin at the mermaid scales that Xie Bai was holding in his hand, and said, "This has nothing to do with the serious question you asked today. Let's change the question. Don't forget about the mermaid scales." The effect is also limited in time."
Xie Bai was taken aback for a moment, glanced at the merman's scales, and nodded: "Okay, change to another..."
I don't know if Yin Wushu's avoidance and refusal to answer just now gave him an inexplicable urge to press the question in his heart for many years with a stubborn temper, and he was about to make a fuss. He took a light breath and said in a low voice: "I Let me ask you, in those few years you had a volatile temper, and then you kicked me out of the house on the grounds that 'a yin guest is here to set up his own house, and he always lives in Taixuan Dao, after all it doesn't look good'. You know it..."
Because his eyes fell on the little black cat and he didn't move away, he didn't see Yin Wushu closed his eyes lightly, opened them after a while, and replied: "Yes, I know."
For more than 130 years, Xie Bai has actually thought about similar scenes many times in his heart—if one day, Yin Wushu, who had avoided seeing him, happened to appear in front of him again, what kind of mood and tone would he ask this question? question.
It could be resentful, it could be ironic...
But he didn't expect that when he really asked, he would be so calm. It may be that all kinds of things before have been foreshadowed, so that he is almost half sure that there is a misunderstanding or hidden truth in the original thing.
Now that he asked this question, he could almost guess that this matter had something to do with the man under the ice, but he still wanted to hear Yin Wushu say it himself.
Xie Bai raised his head and looked at him: "I stayed for nine days and nine nights, and finally I waited for a piece of yellow paper with a few lines of words, politely asking me to go back... Did you really not want to open the door to see me, or was it impossible to open the door? "
Yin Wushu was silent for a moment, and said: "Since we have said the same thing, there is nothing to hide. The connection between me and that person is deeper than you might imagine. The so-called mutual suppression is not only Existing in face to face force or spirit
