As soon as the topic turned to Dugu Wei, everyone who was still talking happily couldn't help but stop, and each looked at Xiaoli. Xiao Li's face did not change, and he coughed and said: "Back to the door master's words: because there are no specific characteristics or clues, the subordinates have to check the disciples one by one to see if there is any gain." Naturally, the focus of the investigation is on those who never mention or are not clear about their backgrounds, and those whose origins are clear are temporarily put aside. ”

In the absence of clues, it can only be so. Duanmu Youning nodded: "What is the result?"

"As you can see, nothing. Xiaoli smiled bitterly, "Those who don't want to mention their background are better, we always have a way to make them tell the truth." But some people have been orphans since childhood, and they don't know their background at all, so it's difficult to investigate for free. ”

"In this case, the matter is urgent. After all, I couldn't bear to see my disciples so busy, Duanmu Youning was a little unbearable, "Senior brother, I'm anxious to find Dugu Wei just to complete the master's entrustment as soon as possible, but if you are busy day and night because of this, and you can't sleep and eat, how can I want? Therefore, you don't have to work too hard, just let everything go according to fate! If God is destined to be the master of the Killing Gate, he will definitely appear!"

As soon as these words came out, a faint joy appeared in Xiao Li's eyes, and he immediately nodded and said: "Yes, thank you for your understanding, my subordinates are grateful!"

"But there is one thing," Duanmu Youning shook his head to signal him to excuse himself, and then continued, "I just don't want you to be exhausted in order to find Dugu Wei, and I definitely don't want to dominate the position of the master of the door forever......"

"Yes, the door master doesn't need to explain, the subordinates understand!" Xiao Li nodded without hesitation, "The subordinates said that the people who the door master can trust, we will all swear allegiance to the death and never turn our backs!"

That's good. Duanmu Youning nodded: "Also, since we are from the same family, from now on, we don't want the master and subordinates to be like this, just be commensurate with our brothers and sisters." ”

Xiaoli immediately looked embarrassed: "This ......"

"It's an order. Duanmu Youning interrupted him faintly, "Unless you want to tell me that the orders of the acting door master are not as effective as the orders of the door master. ”

Xiaoli smiled bitterly: "My subordinates don't dare to ......"

"Don't you dare to be a subordinate?" Duanmu Youning glanced at him, but his eyes were very warm, "Senior brother, look at you are also a good person, so don't be so hypocritical." ”

Xiaoli pursed her lips, then smiled and nodded: "Okay, then I might as well be respectful." Senior sister, as the master of the Killer Sect, although you don't have to call forward and hug when you appear, since we are disciples of the Killer Sect, we should be guarding by your side. But you don't want us to know who you really are, it's ......"

Duanmu Youning smiled faintly: "You just have to guard the lore gate, wait for the real door master to appear, and don't be distracted to protect me." As for who I am, perhaps you will find out later. ”

Does that mean you still don't want to be honest with me? Xiaoli had no choice but to nod and agree: "Yes." ”

There was nothing to gain from this trip to the General Altar of the Lore Gate, and Duanmu Youning was a little disappointed, and he almost didn't say anything along the way. Yan Xunhuan secretly looked back at her several times, and stopped talking.

"Are you looking at me?" Duanmu Youning suddenly spoke, with a hint of doubt in his tone.

"No!" Yan Xunhuan seemed to be startled, and quickly shook his head, but then realized that such a reaction was tantamount to not admitting himself, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Actually...... It doesn't matter, girl, when you just went in, that Jiang girl said......"

Duanmu Youning frowned, and a sneer overflowed from his mouth: "If I don't go again, Xiaoli will become lovesick?"

"Hmm. Yan Xunhuan nodded, "Girl, I don't think her words are like a joke, will Xiaoli really ...... you?"

Duanmu Youning was silent for a long time before shaking his head lightly: "No-even if it will, his lovesickness is destined to end up with no bones." ”

Very few people, or Yan Xunhuan, have never heard anyone use the words "no bones remain" to describe lovesickness, which makes him can't help but smile bitterly again: "That means the girl has no intention of him?"

"Hmm!" Duanmu Youning nodded without hesitation, "Xiaoli is not the person I want, not to mention that he has only seen me a few times in total, so he dares to call himself lovesick?"

Yan Xunhuan pursed his lips, and a touch of pain flashed in his eyes: Xiaoli is not the person you want, so what about me? I'm afraid it's not, right? So who is? Dongling Guyun, or ......

And...... Girl, people like you who will only make people love you, but you will never love others will not understand, if you want to become lovesick, sometimes it does not take too much foreshadowing and too long to prepare, as long as a moment is enough.

I returned to the Zhenguo Mansion for a short rest, and it was already the next morning. After breakfast, Su Wenliu quietly rushed to report, saying that in the past few days, Nangong Yan and the other three ladies still went to chat with Nangong Yu from time to time, and they always sat all day from sunrise to sunset, which was really weird. However, Duanmu Wenting didn't think there was anything wrong, just that these wives and concubines were getting along more and more harmoniously, and Nangong Yu's lower abdomen had begun to bulge, which made him even more excited, and he was happily waiting for his son's arrival every day.

Duanmu Youning, who knew it in his heart, just sneered and told Su Wenliu to take care of Nangong Yu carefully, as for Nangong Yan...... It's almost time to settle the accounts with them!

A few days later, it was finally time to remove the gauze for Dongling Guyun. Maybe it's because his long-standing wish is about to be fulfilled, even if he is as calm and calm as Dongling Guyun, he actually feels an unprecedented tension, the sky has just darkened, he pulled everyone back, closed the door and paced back and forth in the room alone.

Duanmu Youning was very calm, and he didn't appear until the time was approaching. Seeing that slender figure, Dongling Guyun rushed over with an arrow: "Why did you come? I've been waiting for you for a long time......

The resentment and resentment in his tone are very similar to a husband who has been waiting for his wife for a long time, and even his eyes are full of grievances and innocence, which makes people can't help but want to hold him in his arms and cherish him......

Realizing what he was thinking, Duanmu Youning's heart couldn't help but twitch, and he didn't dare to look at those clear eyes anymore, so he deliberately smiled and looked away: "I usually come at this time, has King Zhan forgotten?"

Dongling Guyun bit the corner of his lip, this rather childish action made his usually cold and hard facial lines suddenly soften, but also more and more soft: "Then do you want to rest first, or ......?"

"No need," Duanmu Youning shook his head, "King Zhan, please take a seat, I'll help you remove the gauze and restore your legs to their original state." ”

Dongling Guyun's breath was suddenly suffocated, but he didn't want to be seen as weak and nervous, so he pretended to be calm and sat down: "It's hard." ”

Duanmu Youning rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward to lift his legs, resting them on his own legs, and then untied the gauze little by little and put it aside. As far as the eye can see, the leg is still pitted, just like it was at the beginning.

"Are you nervous?" Although Duanmu Youning never looked up, he suddenly asked, "The muscles in your calves are so tight, aren't you afraid of cramps?"

As she spoke, she carefully pinched every inch of skin on the calf to check how far the necrotic shell had fallen off. Dongling Guyun rarely blushed because of her words, but the dead duck refused to admit it: "No, you are wrong, I am not nervous." ”

Determining that the degree of detachment of the shell had achieved the desired effect, Duanmu Youning smiled with satisfaction and said perfunctorily: "Okay, you're not nervous, I'm nervous." King Zhan, I have just seen that the necrotic shell outside has basically separated from the new skin, so I will peel off this shell now, you will be a little uncomfortable, and the scene will be a little scary, if you are afraid, you can close your eyes. ”

Dongling Guyun frowned, thought about it, and actually really closed his eyes. Duanmu Youning couldn't help but laugh in surprise: "You closed your eyes?"

"Questions?" Dongling Guyun opened his eyes, his brows furrowed even tighter, "Isn't that what you said?"

"I said it, but ......" Duanmu Youning couldn't help laughing, trying to make him understand what he meant, "but you are the king of Zhan, who is above the top, arrogant and conceited, and has great courage, and you actually have something to be afraid of?"

"No matter how great a person is, there is something to be afraid of, unless it is a dead person. Dongling Guyun smiled faintly, "What's more, others can't see what I'm afraid of, and since I don't hide it, I'm not afraid that you will see it, unless you will laugh at me." ”

That is to say, only in front of me, will you show the most authentic you?" Duanmu Youning looked up at him, his eyes shining: "I won't laugh at you, because you are more like a person like this, rather than a god standing in the clouds and looking down indifferently at all beings." ”

Dongling Guyun was noncommittal: "Let's start, don't you know that waiting is the most boring?"

Duanmu Youning nodded, motioning for him to close his eyes again, and then took the knife that had already been detoxified, and began to peel off the necrotic shell little by little......

The feeling similar to the separation of skin and flesh may be really uncomfortable, not only did Dongling Guyun not open his eyes halfway out of curiosity, but his breath gradually became a little disordered. In the middle of the clouds, I suddenly heard Duanmu Youning's question: "Aren't you nervous? What are you holding me for?"

Scratch...... Catching you?

Dongling Guyun was instinctively stunned, and then opened his eyes! It was only then that he realized that he was clutching Duanmu Youning's arm tightly, and from the green tendons on the back of his hand, he could imagine how much strength he had unconsciously used!

Perhaps it was his grip that hindered Duanmu Youning's movements, but at this time she had temporarily stopped healing and was looking at his handsome face with a smile.
