After the people from the Tianxiao Sect and the Haoshan Sect finished communicating in the Suyou Pavilion, they went out as usual. Just from their calm faces, there was no way to deduce who the candidate for the Tianxiao Sect was this time.

In the distance, he picked up the corner of the wall and watched the crowd come out. Yan Ling thought about it for a while and decided to find someone to probe the wind first.

You must know that she has been thinking about that plan for more than two years, and although it seems seamless, there is still a very key point - the Artemisia Mountain faction must put He Jianshuang among the candidates. According to He Jianshuang's development momentum in the past two years, this is not impossible, so she will make bold assumptions.

However, for the sake of prudence, she thought about it, and still asked Yu Yiqing - she didn't ask Qin Bai because Qin Bai wouldn't know a lot of things. And Yu Yiqing is probably the person who knows the most about □□ news outside of the two major figures in this incident - Mei Yanzhi and He Jianshuang.

It is better to act than to move, and in the afternoon of the same day, Yanling was menacing at the corner of the corridor (...... Stopped Yu Yiqing.

After being stopped, Yu Yiqing was still a hanger, and he was blowing around. However, when Yan Ling asked the question, his expression suddenly became serious: "Why are you asking this?"

Yan Ling naturally couldn't tell the truth, and seeing Yu Yiqing's appearance, she didn't seem to intend to answer, so she suddenly chuckled in her heart, and hurriedly changed her question: "Then you sue me, is the person who went confirmed to be the senior brother?"

Hearing this, Yu Yiqing suddenly understood, glanced at her ambiguously, squinted his eyes and smiled: "I understand!"

Yan Ling: "......" She still hasn't said anything, so what does this god-chattering second senior brother know?(╯‵□′)╯(┻━┻

Yu Yiqing's slender fingers touched his chin, raised his eyebrows and said, "I see, I understand-you are reluctant to give up your senior brother, right?"

Yanling: How long has it been since the stalk of "......" has been revealed, don't take it out again to play, okay!

On second thought, it seems that this can be used to make words. Yan Ling hurriedly covered her face and made a shy expression: "No, I am not reluctant to let my senior brother go! I didn't come to ask you questions because I was reluctant to let him go!"

Yu Yiqing laughed out loud, and looked at Yanling with a mentally retarded expression - little junior sister, I really care about it, but I can't do it by myself. He was overjoyed and said, "In that case, I'll reveal something to you." The person who goes may not be your elder brother, so you still have a chance to see him. ”

Yan Ling: "......" she slandered - Yu Yiqing believed her words so lightly. Hmph, comparing the two, I don't know who is mentally retarded! (=_=)

However, Yu Yiqing's tone confirmed her thoughts. Now in the sect, the most cutting-edge disciples are the two Mei He. If the person who goes may not be Mei Yanzhi, then the one who has the ability to shake his absolute status and compete with one must be the other person in Mei He.

The premise of "whether He Jianshuang is qualified to compete for this position" has been resolved. However, recalling the original work, the person who got this opportunity was Mei Yanzhi. In other words, if there is no external force to change, the person who goes will still be Mei Yanzhi, who is more senior and has higher seniority.

After leaving Yu Yiqing, Yanling returned to her room and slammed herself on the bed.

Although I thought about what to do at each step, I had to tense my nerves to implement it. Alas, she received the salary of the eighteenth-tier supporting role, but she the heart of the protagonist, did she dare to add a braised egg to her box lunch!

There was a sudden knock on the door, and He Jianshuang's voice sounded outside the door: "Yanling, go eat." ”

Yan Ling hurriedly responded.

Along the way, Yanling's appearance was the same as usual, but He Jianshuang, who was as careful as a hair, seemed to feel that she was a little absent-minded. It's better to say that it's been the case for half a month.

Thinking about it like this, I felt a little annoyed in my heart - what was it that stole her attention for half a month?

The two of them walked to the place where they were eating.

Sitting down at the dining table, He Jianshuang swung his hands flexibly, carefully pulled out the bamboo thorns that might sting the skin for the bamboo chopsticks of the two of them, and then handed the chopsticks to Yanling.

Yan Ling took it, and suddenly felt a little over—this position was the one they had been sitting in since they met. The rough wooden surface of the table has a warm luster under years of friction. And the people who sit here have grown up so far.

After eating for a while, Yanling glanced at He Jianshuang and hesitated. He Jianshuang took care of herself and glanced at her: "Say whatever you want." "When he squints at people, he habitually raises his eyebrows slightly. With his handsome side face, there is an indescribable sense of high-spirited beauty.

Yan Ling: "......"

Talking about this kind of topic when eating, I always feel that it will affect my appetite, Yanling thought about it for a while, and then said, "Let's eat first." After eating, let's go for a walk in the back mountain. ”

He saw the frost's head.

After quickly finishing the meal, the two strolled to the back mountain. In summer, the mountains are full of greenery and life. Walking into the woods, the temperature around me dropped. The mountain breeze is cool, and the cicadas are restless.

After walking for a while, there was no one around, Yan Ling cleared her throat and went straight to the point: "He Jianshuang, you know what the people from the Tianxiao Sect are here for, right?"

"Yes. ”

"So what do you think? Do you want to go?"

"It's not like I can go if I want to. He Jianshuang said lightly. Yan Ling was overjoyed in his heart—it seemed that he still had the intention to go! However, he immediately heard the second half of his words: "Besides, I don't plan to leave the Artemisia Mountain Sect either." ”

"Why?" Yan Ling wondered: "If it's because of the first half of the sentence, I can sue you that you are among the candidates this time." Why don't you want to go?"

"With me, so what?" He saw Shuang's eyebrows, a little incomprehensible: "Do you want me to go?"

Yan Ling was stunned, and after a while, she nodded lightly and said solemnly: "Yes, I hope you leave the Artemisia Mountain Sect and go to the Tianxiao Sect." ”

Hearing this, He Jianshuang suddenly stopped, turned to stare at her: "You actually want me to leave? Do you know that once the disciples who have been exchanged leave here, they will often stay for a few years, and some of them may not come back at all." ”

Looking at by those dark eyes, Yanling was somehow a little uneasy. She also stopped, looked directly at him as if she were fighting, and repeated, "Yes, I know." But I still want you to get out of here and go to the Sky Pie. ”

He Jianshuang said in a deep voice: "Whatever you said in the past, if I can do it, I will do it." But this time, no. ”

Yanling shook her head: "You know, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It's only a few years away, does it matter, why don't you want to go?"

"Since you asked me why I didn't go, I also want to ask why you had to kick me away. I want a reason. He Jianshuang looked at her with deep eyes.

Reason?

Her reason is very simple, but there is no way to sue Sù He Jianshuang.

How is she going to open her mouth, saying, "If you stay here, you will let the Artemisia Mountain faction be slaughtered"? "Because this is a book, I know the plot"?", "The world you live in is just an illusory paper world, and the meaning of your existence is just a villain, and the ending is very tragic"?

She couldn't speak, and she couldn't speak.

She did so many things because she didn't want He Jianshuang to have any connection with the "Evil Star" again, so she couldn't tell him the ending of leaving him here, at least not now.

Compare heart to heart, empathy, if someone suddenly tells her that she is now breathing, flesh and blood, she is just a fictional character on paper, she will only think that the other party is stupid. Therefore, how could He Jianshuang believe this kind of thing? Maybe she would think that she deliberately made up a story in order to let him leave, and this story is extremely absurd and not distracting at all.

Of course, she also thought about transforming in front of He Jianshuang and revealing that she was a divine beast in the mountains, telling Sù He Jianshuang that she could break through the heavens. Fooling him with the identity of a divine beast like this is much more acceptable than directly telling him "This is an illusory world, you are a villain".

However, when she disappeared in the Artemisia Mountain Sect for the first time before, she had received a warning from this world that if she divulged her identity as a divine beast, there would be punishment, and Nirvana's failure rate would increase greatly. Moreover, before the end of Nirvana, she could not leave the Yanshan Realm.

It would be nice if she had Nirvana faster than He Jianshuang left, but unfortunately, until the people from the Tianxiao Sect came to Yanshan, she had not yet reached the cut-off point of Nirvana. With this limitation, this path will not work.

"My reason...... I can't sue you. Yan Ling was silent for a long time, and raised her eyes to look directly at him: "You haven't answered me yet—why don't you want to go?"

"Why don't I want to go......" He Jianshuang looked at her directly, and said in a dumb voice: "Yanling, don't you really understand?"

Yan Ling was shocked, thinking that she had misheard.

"I didn't intend to say it so early. But you guessed it? I don't want to go, just because I don't want to be separated from you. "The words have come out, there is no way to regret it, and there is no need to regret it - in fact, after saying this, it is as if a secret that has been pressed in the bottom of my heart has been released, and there is a kind of relaxed pleasure.

He Jianshuang pursed her lips, without flinching, stepped forward and grabbed Yan Ling's wrist, and pulled the person in front of him: "I didn't say this to you because I was hot-headed, I have wanted to say this and do this for a long time." I like you, and there is no reason to be separated from you for a few years for no reason. ”

Yanling's heart was about to pop out of her chest, and not only that, but she felt like her head was about to explode. Whether it is real life or the world in the book, this is the first time that someone has confessed to her so bluntly.

He Jianshuang is much younger than her. But at this moment, his attitude, tone, and actions were all firm and strong. His palms were warm, his chest was hot, and even because it was too close, the warm snort kept falling gently on her forehead. Those clear and deep eyes just looked at her like this, without fear or retreat, full of the fearlessness and longing of the youth.

The complex emotions in the chest are mixed up—sourness, shock, chagrin, and perhaps a touch of joy and shyness, wrapped in sweetness and panic. Yan Ling barely held back her thoughts, her teeth trembling: "Don't, don't be kidding......"

He Jianshuang said in a low voice: "I'm not kidding!"

Yan Ling felt that the wrist he was holding was about to be burned, and this straight ball completely destroyed all the abdominal manuscripts in her stomach. She frantically broke his hand: "It's too sudden, you make me think about it......"

He Jianshuang didn't let go, looked straight at her, and said strongly: "How long do you want to go?"

Yan Ling raised her eyes, her eyelashes trembling like butterfly wings. He Jianshuang stared at her slightly trembling eyelids, and only felt a wave of pity and impulse rise up - what he wanted, he must get it. I don't want to hide this desire anymore, and I don't want to endure it anymore.

So, he said in a dumb voice: "Give me a time, I just don't want you to think about it, so start avoiding me." ”

Yan Ling closed her eyes, indeed, her mind was confused now, and she needed time to regain her composure.

In my heart, I secretly reminded myself not to be interrupted, not to forget the purpose of coming today, and when I opened my eyes again, Yanling's eyes were clear: "Two days, give me two days." ”
