Zhou He watched Mo Xi leave with Gu Mang, and his face became more and more ugly.
"Elder, look... what should we do now?"
"What else can I do? Go and report to your Majesty! Just say that Mo Xi's eyes are empty of the country's laws, trespassing on important places, violating the emperor's edict, and fighting privately in the inner court!"
Jiang Yexue frowned and said, "Elder Zhou, the situation is complicated. Your Majesty is in poor health at the moment. Please think twice."
Zhou He was furious: "The surname is Jiang, don't you have a backache while you are standing and talking?!"
Jiang Yexue: "..."
"Today, a member of the military agency dares to trespass on my surgical platform and rob people from my platform. If I can still hold my breath, where will I put my face in the future?! I know you are his brother, but you better find out. , Your brother has touched the king's law now! What's the matter, you want to cover up his crimes?!"
After speaking, Zhou He waved his sleeves, and Zhou He sternly said to his opponent, "What are you all doing? Why don't you go and report to your Majesty!?"
"Yes!"
Half an hour later, Xihe House.
The damage caused to Gu Mang by the Black Demon Trial was so great that Gu Mang fell into a coma after stepping out of the operating table, and he has not been awake since then.
And in this long absence, Gu Mang had a very deep dream.
In the dream, both he and Mo Xi were only in their early twenties. They walked together on the long embankment on the outskirts of Chonghua City. It was dusk. The rising sun had removed half of the heavy makeup, and the crimson rouge and splendid gold powder rose to the sky, floating like clouds.
He folded a piece of dog's tail grass, and shook it as he walked. ?"
Mo Xi lowered his eyes, didn't say whether he was nervous or not, only said, "I will win."
Gu Mang smiled and said, "That's right, remember, as the leader, the most important thing is not to collapse. No matter what happens, if you don't step over, others will see hope from you. If even the commander of an army does not have the courage, the army will be a mess, and it will be useless for the soldiers to charge. ."
Mo Xi nodded, raised his hand, and looked at Gu Mang's face against the ripe golden sunset.
"I will."
After a pause, he added another sentence.
"You wait for me to come back."
Gu Mang smiled and said, "Why are you so serious all of a sudden, what's the matter?"
This young man is very serious, but also very clumsy, but he has to remain calm: "Your Majesty said, if I succeed in this battle, he will allow me to leave the Mo family's independent portal."
"… so what?"
Mo Xi bit his lower lip, and for a while he didn't dare to look at him. First, he turned his head to look at the sparkling river. The golden light reflected in his eyes and floated on his eyelashes.
I don't know if it was because of the crimson sunset, or for some other reason, Mo Xi's face looked a little red, especially the tips of his ears, which were filled with a thin layer of blood.
"I can have my own house."
Gu Mang: "…"
He was also dull at the time. In fact, both of them are the objects of love for the first time. In fact, no one is much better than the other. Gu Mang looked at Mo Xi in bewilderment. He really didn't understand what Mo Xi wanted to express. He hesitated for a while and said, "Okay... Then... congratulations?"
And almost at the same time, Mo Xi asked softly, "Would you like to live with me?"
Gu Mang: "…"
Mo Xi: "..."
The two looked at each other, Mo Xi's handsome and beautiful face turned even redder, he coughed lightly, as if he wanted to restore his dignity, but also as if he didn't want to push the other party too hastily, so his long eyelashes flickered and fell, and said: "No, it doesn't matter if you don't want to. I can wait. No, that's not what I mean, I mean, I have a good look at my drawings and drawings, I... "
The more he talked, the more embarrassed he felt, the more he wanted to hide it, the more he shook off those soft and green thoughts.
Calm like Mo Xi, in the end, he pushed Gu Mang away. He walked to the edge of the dam and raised his forehead with his hand. He almost murmured in despair, "...I'm sorry, I just asked casually..."
Gu Mang remembered watching this young man clumsily and stubbornly showing his favor, and he suddenly understood.
This little junior brother, he hasn't fought yet, hasn't set off on an expedition, but he believes that he will definitely win, and he even secretly runs to look at the drawings... Thinking of the end, his heart aches.
He knew that Mo Xi had always been sincere to him.
It's just that he doesn't dare to have it.
But maybe it was because Mo Xi was going to the front line soon, or maybe it was because he had some selfishness in his heart, so he didn't reject Mo Xi's proposal at that time, which made the young man happy. .
He and Mo Xi didn't go back to their respective residences that day, but spent a whole night in the inn outside the city. In the end, he was tossed to the point where he had no strength at all. His face was buried in the messy pillows, and the slender eyes were dripping with tears from too much stimulation.
He shivered and trembled.
When he was confused, he heard Mo Xi whispering to him, "There is something I want to give you."
He didn't have the strength to ask any more questions, but Mo Xi grabbed his hand holding the sheet, and his broad palms covered Gu Mang's fingers one by one. He felt a slight tingling pain on the back of his hand, and then a red light array lit up on the palms and backs of the hands that were connected to each other, and floated all the way to the side of the neck along the clenched hands.
Gu Mang was still a little dazed by the lingering aftertaste, so he weakly asked, "What is it?"
"It's a very small sword formation." Mo Xi released his hand, raised the pulp of his fingers with fine calluses, and stroked the side of Gu Mang's neck lightly, "I know there will always be someone who will bully you, they are afraid of making trouble. I don't dare to use magic, I only dare to take advantage of my hands and feet."
His eyelashes fell, and he turned his head and kissed Gu Mang's neck.
"I left a drop of blood and formed this formation. I haven't given it a concentrating shape yet, so you can condense it in whatever way you want, a word or a flower... Anything will do. When I'm not around, it will protect it. You. Of course if you don't want to... you can seal it."
While being kissed softly by him, Gu Mang lay between the mattresses and listened silently.
He had mixed feelings in his heart, some wanted to laugh with joy, and some wanted to cry with sadness - in fact, he would not live in Mo Xi's mansion.
It was a mansion, not a home.
Home is where two people can be together openly and justifiably, without having to hide, love like an affair, and bury it like a wrong thing.
Mo Xi might be able to give him a place to live, but he couldn't give him a real home. They are not all the way, never have been. He knew that he would eventually reject Mo Xi, but looking at the young man's serious and pleading appearance, he couldn't say anything for a while.
His body has been softened by his younger junior brother, and his heart has long been so soft. He was almost driven to turn his face by guilt, and raised his hand to stroke Mo Xi's face.
"Are you the only one who left the sword formation for me?"
"… Um?"
Black eyes smiled tenderly: "What if someone bullies you?"
Mo Xi: "..."
Naturally, no one would dare to take advantage of Young Master Mo's fists. But it seemed that two people who were destined to never reach the end wanted to leave a secret on each other that only they knew each other. Gu Mang bit his finger, turned over, and touched Mo Xi with his fingertips. On the side of his neck, he carefully melted a red lotus.
Then he grabbed Mo Xi's hand, covered it, and said with a smile, "I will also leave a drop of my blood, you will evolve into a guardian sword formation for me, and I will also accompany you. Okay?"
There was a very bright light in Mo Xi's eyes. That brilliance made Gu Mang look so unbearable.
Mo Xi said, "...Okay."
As he spoke, he hugged him from behind, his warm chest pressed against Gu Mang's hunched back, while stroking his hair, he kissed his neck and shrunken earlobes.
"Wait for me to come back."
"When I come back, everything will be fine."
"You believe me… "
You believe me.
The picture at that time and Mo Xi's voice began to fade away, like all the memories pierced by the falcon, fragmented and disintegrated.
wait for me.
it will be okay.
Gu Mang struggled in his deep consciousness, knelt down, and couldn't stop apologizing to the pious Mo - I'm sorry, I also hope I can wait for you all the time.
I also hope that everything will get better.
I have always believed in you.
But... Mo Xi, some things have to be done, and some sacrifices have to be done. When fate finds you, you don't want to be a coward, you are destined to face it.
We all have our own way to go.
That future, that home, you have already described to me, and I have spent such a beautiful and carefree life in your eyes.
enough.
So, when you come back triumphantly, don't see me... don't be sad...
I love you.
In my life, every word I have said about loving you is true.
…
ink extinguished...
In the coma, tears still rolled down Gu Mang's eyes and seeped into his temples.
—
A group of warlocks were busy beside Gu Mang's bed, and the chief elder said solemnly, "Three more blood coagulation formations. Shenting, Fengchi, and Renying are three acupoints to settle the soul needle."
After speaking, there was no movement from the cooperating apprentice, so he raised his eyebrows angrily: "Why are you going? Hurry up!"
The little apprentice hurriedly responded, "Oh... oh." His eyes shifted from Gu Mang's face in a hurry. But he couldn't help but mutter in his heart - it really hurts to think about the Black Demon Trial.
Otherwise, why did this Gu Mang cry even when he was in a coma...
His master urged: "When the needle is dropped from the three points, the gesture must be steady."
"Yes!"
The pharmacists gathered in front of the bed in Xihe Mansion. The light-ink-colored fringe curtain drooped down, and the golden beast was burning with a soothing aroma, but it couldn't calm the tense atmosphere in the room. The medical officers of Shennongtai went in and out, and the blood and water washed from the wounds were changed into pots after pots.
No one dared to speak, and fine beads of sweat dripped on the foreheads of every monk and servant.
There were a total of two patients in the room, one was Gu Mang who was lying on the bed at the moment, and the other was Mo Xi who was sitting at the table.
No one knew what Mo Xi had gone through, why he was injured like this all of a sudden, why he didn't care when he was injured like this, and only cared about the comatose one on the bed...
that traitor.
The monks in Shennongtai who were urgently summoned to heal their sick were actually very puzzled.
A Yao Xiu stepped forward cautiously and said, "Xi He-Jun, I have brought the top-grade muscle regeneration cream. Your injury..."
"give him."
Little monk: "..."
"These high-grade wound medicines are all for him." Mo Xi's eyes were red, but he never took his eyes off the bed for a moment, "I'm fine."
The only one who was in charge of healing Mo Xi's wounds, Yao Xiu, had a sallow face, but he stopped talking: Big Brother! You are in trouble! Your spiritual core is about to burst, how can you be okay
But seeing Mo Xi's stubborn expression, no one dared to say anything, so he continued to rush back and forth in and out of the room in silence.
I was very busy, and suddenly a little servant ran in nervously: "Lord, Lord!"
"What's wrong."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty sent Duke Zhao to announce the decree, saying, "I told you to go outside to receive the edict."
Mo Xi didn't say a word, didn't move, he still rested one hand on the dark and shiny sandalwood table, and was treated by Yao Xiu. After a while, four words fell on his thin lips.
"Let him wait."
The whole room was shocked, and a little cultivator who was entering the house with the soup medicine almost knocked over the bowl, and stared at Mo Xi with wide eyes in horror. Everyone has a feeling: Is Xi Hejun crazy
The little family slave stammered: "This, this... how can this be..."
Mo Xi repeated without blinking, this time there were only two words:
"Wait."
"..." The little family slave had no choice but to stumble out again. Mo Xi still stared at the figure on the bed shrouded in the magic light array.
A silver-bearded Yaoxiu elder had said before that Gu Mang's physique had been transformed so strangely by Liaoguo, and there was a very heavy yin gushing around him, as if he had a body that was cursed by thousands of people.
Chonghua was very unfamiliar with people with this type of physique, and since Gu Mang was seriously injured, all these medicine cultivators tried their best and could only barely stabilize Gu Mang's life.
But he couldn't recover the heavy damage to his mind again.
Elder Yao Xiu wiped the sweat from his face and asked, "How is the consciousness?"
The cultivator, who had been casting spells to stabilize Gu Mang's head, had a very pale face. It was obvious that he had spent a lot of energy, but he still shook his head: "...I can't stand it anymore, he already lost two souls. , now it's even more... cough cough cough!!" In the end, even he was exhausted and choked blood.
There was a buzzing sound in Mo Xi's ears, and the whole person was like falling into an ice cave.
"What's the meaning?"
"..." Medicine cultivators, look at me, I look at you, all with low eyebrows, no one dares to answer first.
"What will he become?"
At this time, only the elders can speak out. The elder Yao Xiu looks very embarrassed, but he can only bite the bullet: "I'm afraid... I don't remember anything... I can't speak... If the collapse is severe, it may even be damaged. and binoculars…”
Mo Xi got up abruptly, his whole body was trembling, and his originally pale lips were even more colorless. Yao Xiu, who had been stabilizing his heart pulse, was violently shaken by his sudden riotous spiritual flow, and said in a loss: "Xihe-Jun, you can't act rashly! You—"
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by a faint sighing female voice: "Brother Mo, you got my spiritual core, are you just spoiling yourself like this?"
Everyone turned their heads and bowed their heads in salute.
"Princess Mengze!"
"See Princess Mengze!"
