Chapter 68
While buying people's hearts, Ye Xi did not forget to squeeze the pig's feet. This is the most important task of crossing cannon fodder, how could he be left behind?
However, Boss Ye is a kind person, Chi Guoguo's slap in the face will not be done, and the run is also secret.
For example, that time when Wei Yixing wanted to break through the foundation building advanced condensation vein, he needed a magic weapon or an elixir to help him improve his cultivation, but Pig's Foot was still a poor ghost at this time, and he was usually stretched thin, so where to find a magic weapon elixir, it was easy to find one, but there was no spirit stone exchange. At this time, Boss Ye, who was enthusiastic about helping others, appeared.
After kindly asking the reason, Ye Xi generously donated money to buy the magic weapon for Wei Yixing to help him advance. While he was grateful, he was reminded that he had been sorry for Ye Xi, and he kicked his black foot a few times very inauthentically. Wei Yixing was so ashamed that he couldn't wait to come to Ye Xi to plead guilty. Ye Xi immediately said that it was a misunderstanding, and the brothers did not need to care about the previous suspicions. Those words were very sincere and generous, and everyone who listened to them admired his open-mindedness, and Wei Yixing was even more moved to kneel, and he did not hesitate to become a diehard loyalist of Senior Brother Ye.
Turning the protagonist into his own little brother is such a rewarding thing for a former sling reader! Now who wants to say that he is not successful in wearing books, Ye Xi will have to be in a hurry with him!
For the sake of the safety of his master and the cultivation of his younger brother, Ye Xi fooled Wei Yixing into leaving Lumei Mountain and went to a distant shop in the west to practice and work for Ye Xi. Only when he is not in front of him can the possibility of the master being exposed by him be eliminated, and Ye Xi can temporarily put his mind at ease.
After Wei Yixing was gone, Ye Xi still didn't dare to slack off, always paying attention to the movements in the Wuxiang Gate.
Because he believed that there was a traitor in Wuxiangmen, he not only covered the account book to death, but also transported most of the spirit stone magic weapons back to Yunshou Mountain, and asked Bai Jingting to rearrange the two formations inside and outside the place where Yin Mo was imprisoned before, and the Holy Beast Di Ting and the Divine Beast Dapeng acted as his gatekeeper and porter respectively.
Of course, Ye Xi's remuneration for them is also quite generous, and the wine that Xue Peng drinks every day has been upgraded from ordinary Liuxia drunk to all kinds of hard-to-find immortal wine, and he also changes it every day without a duplicate one. As for Bai Jingting, he didn't want the spirit stone to ask for the elixir, all kinds of good elixirs were continuously sent into his son and Yin Mo's mouth, Bai Xue was greedy for fun and didn't practice every day, and his cultivation still broke through the condensation veins steadily, while Yin Mo's hair turned black, his wrinkles became less, his back was not hunched and not bent, and he regained his body in his prime.
On this day, Ye Xi had time to go to Yunshou Mountain in person. I first visited Uncle Smiling Tiger, and was dragged by Yin Mo to discuss his newly written Little Yellow Mosquito, and finally had time to find Bai Xue.
As soon as I entered the backyard of the Valley of Flowers, I saw Bai Xue and Xiao Weitou squatting on the ground to make puppets. Xiao Wei took a silk handkerchief to wipe the sweat for Bai Xue from time to time, and the peach blossom eyes that looked like Gu Tanwei stuck to the owner for a moment, like water tenderness that could flood half of the yard.
Ye Xi stood so far away that he was trembling with numbness. Immediately developing scattered thinking, he began to guess how Gu Tanwei would feel when he saw this situation. If Xiaowei was an ordinary puppet, it would be fine, but he was so rich in emotions that he was close to people, and he was very unfriendly to Gu Tanwei. No matter how open-minded Gu Tanwei is, he will definitely be uncomfortable after a long time......
"Snow dumplings!" Bai Xue saw him and waved his hand happily. He stood up, wiped his hands on Xiaowei's silk handkerchief, ran over in a few steps and gave Ye Xi a big hug, and carried the person off the ground and shook it from side to side like the first time.
The snow ball has grown taller now, and the surface of its feet is dragged around against the ground, raising a small ash of dust, and the snow is still unconscious and only cares about fun. Ye Xi sighed silently, the second senior brother is almost taller than the uncle, but he has not inherited the uncle's black heart and eyes, and he has been like a big child for several years, but he has a bit of mascot style.
"Xue Tuanzi, you've grown taller." Bai Xue put him down, stretched out her hand to compare his height, and said happily: "I heard that your poison has been cured, I was still suspicious, but now I see that you are jumping so fast, and it is really fine." That's great! ”
"The second senior brother has also grown taller. Congratulations on breaking through the condensation. Ye Xi smiled and arched his hand at him.
Bai Xue said with a little shyness: "That's not thanks to the elixir you sent. Stretching out his hand to hug Ye Xi, he turned around and asked Xiao Wei to clean up his things for him, and then pulled Ye Xi to the house, "How is Shizun?" and Senior Brother Gu...... What is he up to? ”
When Gu Tanwei was mentioned, Bai Xue's tone revealed an eagerness that could not be concealed. Although his voice was not loud, Xiao Wei heard it nearby.
Putting down the work in her hand, Xiaowei raised her head and looked at her master. When he heard Ye Xi say, "Senior Brother Gu will come to Yunshou Mountain in the next two days", the master was so excited that he wanted to jump up, his eyes were a little brighter than usual, and his joy overflowed.
He blurted out "master". Bai Xue was busy inquiring about Gu Tanwei's news at this time, and she didn't hear it at all. He suddenly felt anxious, his heart seemed to have lost support, he couldn't reach the world or the ground, and hung dangerously in mid-air.
Lost and lost for an unknown amount of time, he was tapped on the shoulder. The cat demon Hua Wufang stretched out his head with cat ears from behind, and asked with a smile: "What are you doing in a daze?" I don't say yes to you a few times. ”
Xiaowei came back to her senses and replied perfunctorily: "It's nothing." ”
"What about Senior Brother Bai? Did you play with the snow dumplings? ”
"Hmm."
There are only a few people in the Valley of Flowers, although Xiaowei is a puppet, but there is nothing from the inside to the outside that is not human, even more delicate and imaginative than ordinary people, and it is the appetite of the cat demon who likes to read the book and daydream. Pingsuhua has no time to talk to Xiaowei when she has nothing to do, but now she sees that he is unhappy and asks more. Xiao Wei replied coyly that Gu Tanwei was coming. The cat demon couldn't find any words of comfort, and only looked sympathetically at the distressed puppet and secretly made up the stalks of various stand-in texts.
"What's so good about him that deserves such a fascination from his master?" Xiaowei suddenly threw the thing in her hand to the ground, with an incomprehensible look on her face.
Hua Wufang blinked and didn't speak, secretly thinking that Gu Tanwei, as the most popular monk in the Nine Star Realm, shouldn't ask him what's good, but what is bad, there are many people who are infatuated with him in the Three Realms, and it's not surprising that Bai Xue likes him.
"That person is messing with flowers and grass everywhere, and if he can't wait for Yunshou Mountain once, he has no master in his eyes at all!" Xiaowei continued to accuse Gu Tanwei.
"That's it." The cat demon nodded approvingly.
"I'm so loyal, I only have the master in my eyes, and I'll do whatever he asks me to do as long as he's happy, but as soon as that person comes, the master doesn't even look at me, why?! Although his cultivation is high, I am willing to protect my master with my life...... Besides, cultivation can be cultivated, and if I give me time, I can be as powerful as him! But my heart for my master, is he comparable?! ”
"Not comparable, definitely not comparable." Hua Wuxian looked at a puppet who blushed and had a thick neck because of jealousy, and felt deeply amused, so he couldn't help nodding his head to cater to it, and his glass eyes rolled around on Xiaowei's face, and he found that he really couldn't find a flaw in this face, and every line and every fine line could perfectly interpret the rich expression of human beings, even richer than most people.
Xiao Wei said that she was excited, pinched Hua Wufang's shoulder and shook her and asked, "Where do you say I am inferior to him?" Why is there only him in the master's eyes, you say, you say, ......?"
Hua Wufang was dizzy by him, and his shoulder was about to be crushed in unbearable pain, but he couldn't push his hand away, and the puppet was still there hysterically asking.
"Because you're a puppet! It would have been his replacement! Hua Wufang screamed.
After Xiaowei heard this, her hand first tightened and then loosened, and the whole person was stunned as if she had been immobilized.
Hua Wufang took the opportunity to shake off his hand and rubbed his shoulders dissatisfiedly and complained: "I didn't mess with you, why are you crazy?" ”
Xiaowei didn't seem to hear his words, staring at him in a daze, but her eyes were clearly empty, and her vision was almost nothing.
Substitute.
Xiao Wei silently read these three words, and her mouth was bitter.
How can you forget that the master created him for that person, and where did he come from without that person? Those laughs, those loves, all belong to that person, and I just secretly enjoy it on his behalf, and I should thank that person when I say it.
How did I forget, I'm a puppet. Puppets have no life, no emotional expectations, no expectations and demands, just obey.
He exhaled softly, and felt the heartless place skip a beat, and this blow alone made his heart ache.
"Hey, stupid?" Hua Wufang waved his hand in front of him, and the glass eyes swirled curiously on his face.
"The flowers are flawless, I was wrong." He smiled distractedly and whispered to himself, "What should I do?" I always forgot who I was. ”
"......" The cat demon scratched his head, understood this sentence but didn't understand the deep meaning of it, "I've heard of a spell called 'puppet technique', which can turn people into puppets, but I haven't heard of any spells that can turn puppets into ~ people." ”
"If I become ~ human, won't the master use me as a substitute anymore?" Xiao Wei muttered.
Hua Wuxian replied uncertainly: "Well, I can't say. But if it's human, even identical twins will be different, and it's not easy to think of you as someone else, right? ”
Xiao smiled shallowly, like ice flowers flickering in the sun, bright and fragile. The cat demon looked at him with pity.
"Well, don't think about it. Bai Xue is usually good enough for you. Hua Wufang slapped a little, and deliberately said in a joking tone: "Look at it, he wears cloth clothes for you and silk satin, and all the good things are greeted to you." ”
Xiaowei smiled miserably. As the host, Bai Xue is indeed very, very good to herself. People can't be perfect, and a puppet can't be too demanding. In order to seek peace of mind, the world has turned around and sought a way to quit greed and hatred, but if a puppet has a heart of greed and hatred, there is no solution.
At night, Xiaowei lay alone on the couch and looked out the window, with a bent eyebrow hanging in the blue sky, like a sharp and cold eye, quietly staring at the peach source of Yunshou Mountain with a mocking light. He was holding a palm-sized puppet in his hand, which was a chess puppet that the master liked very much, and the master had no time to repair it after it was broken, and the master also complained about this father for asking for too long to cultivate. He quietly repaired it, wanting to surprise the owner.
I heard that although that person is a very powerful sword cultivator, he will not be a puppet that the master likes. Now that he can help his master repair the puppet, will the master pay more attention to himself?
The door was pushed open. He hurriedly closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep. Bai Xue whispered "Xiaowei" at the door. He didn't answer, and held the chess puppet in his hand a little tighter. Thinking of what he was going to do next, and thinking of his master's surprised look when he saw the chess puppet, he became excited, and the place where the spirit stone was placed on his chest seemed to have turned into a pounding heart.
Bai Xue was afraid of waking him up, so she tiptoed in and turned over on the couch. Xiaowei was about to speak, but felt Bai Xue's hand gently tear open the placket of her clothes. The familiar warm fingers slid over the artificial skin, making Xiao Wei feel a shiver of confusion. He raised his hand slightly, ready to turn over and hug his master, but as soon as his palm left the bedding, it froze.
The spirit stones that kept him active were taken.
Bai Xue hung in front of his face and muttered to herself guiltily: "Senior Brother Gu will come tomorrow." He doesn't like to see you, you rest for a while, and when he leaves, I'll install a high-grade spirit stone. ”
After speaking, he folded the quilt for Xiaowei and lay down next to him.
He didn't see the puppet's slightly raised hand, nor did he see the chess puppet that was carefully held in his hand, and he didn't see the puppet's eyes that should not move and spun around as if pleading.
The amorous eyes finally stopped moving, and froze on a certain point in the darkness, gradually dimming until they were dead to ashes. The stiff arm turned into a stubborn gesture, desperately trying to hold on to something that was destined to be lost.
