One hundred and eighty-nine chapters
"Want to die? I can give you a ride for free..."Leng Xuan smiled faintly, "If you don't want to die, tell me, even if you get it, you can't control such an artifact, why take the risk of stealing it?" ”。
"I can't say! I was also coerced by others, so I had to do this..."The shadow was shocked by Leng Xuan's extremely high skill, and begged, "I know who you are, for the sake of my service to the master of the illusion, please let me go...".
"Oh? What did you say? Leng Xuan listened and became a little curious, and then asked, "Who is the owner of the dream, and does she have a lot of face?" I don't know you, how can you know about me, and think I'm stupid? Don't make up a story, it's too outrageous...".
The shadow was puzzled by what he said and asked, "You don't remember?" You are the guardian of the dream master's side*** When you return to the world, you also follow her to the mortal world, and she used her own blood to water and nurture you, and let you stay at the edge of the 'Dream Chasing Cliff'...".
"Mouthy, find your own death!" Someone scolded angrily, and a pear blossom with spikes on the edge of the rain curtain flew through the body of the shadow, and the figure that was originally a little illusory was scattered in all directions, and fell into the muddy water on the ground one after another, although the leaf petals had withered a little, they could also be recognized as peony petals with light yellow.
Leng Xuan couldn't help but feel a little dazed when he looked at the scene in front of him, it seemed that he should have seen it somewhere. Flowing springs, waterfalls, clouds and flowers, a huge ivy tree covering half of the cliff, verdant leaves glowing with gorgeous silver light in the morning light, that beautiful dreamlike picture flashed in front of his eyes.
"Dream Catcher? That one... Is it the legendary 'Dream Chaser'? Dreams... Is it her? That tree... Could it be me? Leng Xuan was a little distracted in that picture, were those dusty memories hidden in the deepest part of his heart?
"Sooner or later, I will use the glazed fire to burn your nasty ivy to ashes inch by inch!" Someone scolded hatefully, the sound of wind and rain in the sky, and I couldn't hear where the sound came from and which direction it disappeared, Leng Xuan was hugged by Cheng Nan from behind before he woke up from a trance.
However, he has never had a girlfriend, let alone been hugged by such a boyfriend, Leng Xuan instinctively reacted to the side and wanted to throw Cheng Nan out, Cheng Nan tightened his arms and said in a hurry, "Sword!" Can't let it run away, go back... Go back to your room, hurry! ”。
Only then did Leng Xuan notice that the wooden sword he had just held in his hand shook it slightly, and the sword body began to turn red, as if it was still a little hot.
"It's so hot, what's it?" Leng Xuan just muttered to himself and wanted to tear off his sleeves and put them on the palm of his hand, the red light suddenly swirled out of thin air, and the sharp sword qi cut his fingers, Leng Xuan couldn't help but be startled, and he wanted to throw it out with a flick of his wrist.
Cheng Nan happened to hug him from the right side, and his whole body was pressed against the wooden sword, looking up at the thunder and lightning slashing in the sky, and urged, "Go back to the room, hurry!" It's going to run...".
The half-carved wooden sword will run away with lightning and must be hidden in the room to stop it from escaping? Leng Xuan probably understood what Cheng Nan wanted to express, and took him forward, grabbed Cheng Nan's collar and threw him directly in.
Cheng Nan was hurt a lot, but at this time, he couldn't care about those and hid under the workbench with the wooden sword, and he hid like this last time to prevent it from escaping, this time it should be okay to catch the medicine according to the prescription, right?
Leng Xuan stood at the door and looked at Cheng Nan in surprise, he suddenly felt that this legendary fool was also a little cute, but the wooden sword had not yet been carved and had no blade, so how could it cut his fingers? Leng Xuan lowered his head to check the injury, if he kept bleeding, did he have to find a 'band-aid' to carefully bandage it to prevent excessive blood loss?
"Huh?" Leng Xuan raised his right hand and looked at it several times, there was no wound or blood stains, and the burning pain like fire disappeared, and his entire right hand was still intact. It seems that the scene just now was just a trance-like illusion, and it didn't really happen?
The rune-stamped notes attached to the windows seemed to be unglued, and they were blown by the cold wind outside, making a low 'hum' sound, and they shattered into dots of powder as they drifted down into the air.
Leng Xuan didn't know these strange magic techniques, didn't know the purpose of those runes, and didn't know why the thing suddenly shattered, Cheng Nan had been hiding under the workbench and didn't see this sudden accident.
He just wanted to keep this wooden sword as much as possible, complete the carving as soon as possible and hand it over to Lan Tianxing, as for the rest, he didn't know anything else, and he didn't want to make trouble for himself by studying it deeply.
The heavy rain seemed to stop suddenly, the clouds gradually dispersed, and the warm spring sun shone through the clouds, and soon it was a light and breezy scene again.
When Leng Xuan was still entangled in the confusion of both truth and illusion, Cheng Nan had already drilled out from under the workbench and carefully inspected the wooden sword, wanting to see if it was damaged or repaired in time. This thing is too important to him, and he doesn't dare to have any negligence, otherwise he won't forgive himself even if Yuwen doesn't come back to settle accounts with him.
The originally dull thunder pattern of the sword body seemed to be soaked with a trace of bright red blood, and the color was much brighter and rudder than before, as if it had been injected with new vitality and a little more agile aura.
Cheng Nan stared at the sword body and asked Leng Xuan, "You... Bleeding? It's not going to be... Your blood, right? ”。
"Huh? Oh... What's wrong? Isn't it... What went wrong? Leng Xuan was a little stunned by the question, just now he was indeed cut by the sword qi on his fingers, and it is likely that he accidentally stained the blood stains on the wooden sword, but now there are no wounds or blood stains on his hands, if there are adverse consequences and he wants to deny it, Cheng Nan may not have evidence to push the responsibility on him, right?
Cheng Nan also gave him a more ignorant expression, "I don't know, I don't understand these things at all!" Let's go ask Senior Brother Gu, he said he would help me...".
"You mean Mr. Gu? He just came, you were asleep at the time, and he seemed to have something important to tell you..."Leng Xuan tried to restore the scene of Gu Liang knocking on the window at that time, he always felt that Gu Liang's behavior was a little weird, leaving the normal door and not leaving, and he wanted to knock on the window in a mysterious way.
Cast a mist before somebody's eyes? Leng Xuan couldn't help but think about it, and he suddenly remembered that Gu Liang had burned a yellow silk full of runes in the heavy rain outside the window.
At that time, the rain was so heavy, how he lit the fire and how it burned, even if he brought his own high-tech lighter that could be both windproof and waterproof, he couldn't burn things in such a harsh environment, so he turned around and went out.
The rain had stopped, and he was going to Gu Liang to figure things out. was treated as a fool for no reason, of course he can't bear such a character.
Cheng Nan stood at the door of the room and suddenly said very sadly, "It's too late, Senior Brother Gu... Probably gone...".
"Gone?" Leng Xuan was slightly surprised, "How do you know?" I can't go, I have to let him give an explanation for this, I'll go to him! ”。
"Hey, spin less... There are no more people, where are you going to find it..."Although they haven't been together for a long time, Cheng Nan also has some understanding of Leng Xuan's character, and he can only shake his head when he knows that he can't stop it, and secretly sighs and follows.
Gu Liang sat neatly dressed at the desk in front of the window, holding a wolf pen stained with cinnabar in his hand, and the position where the tip of the pen stayed was blank. Could it be that he hasn't had time to draw what he wants to draw, or maybe he has already finished painting and has another place to go when he finishes it, so his desk will be empty?
"Mr. Gu..."Leng Xuan shouted at him behind Gu Liang, and when he saw that Gu Liang didn't react, he patted him on the shoulder to remind him, Gu Liang still didn't change his posture at all, but the wolf pen in his hand fell on the desk with a 'click', Leng Xuan was slightly startled and instinctively took two steps back.
Cheng Nan didn't have the speed of Leng Xuan, and only then did he catch up and see this situation, and couldn't help but sigh and remind, "Senior Brother Gu... Passed away! ”。
