Chapter 6: Lies
"You are Ye Yousheng?"
Shen Yingyao walked up to Ye Yousheng and raised his chin arrogantly.
Ye Yousheng glanced at him blankly, then turned his head to look at Qin Hao, and said aggrievedly: "Senior sister, I don't know him. ”
If it was someone he knew, he would definitely not let others disturb him talking to his senior sister.
Only then did Shen Yingyao notice Qin Zhen beside Ye Yousheng-
The girl looked as old as him, and the cyan Liuxian skirt on her body seemed to be old, and the color was a little dull. The expression on her face is very gentle and friendly, and the smile on the corner of her lips is like the warm sun on a spring day, which makes people look very comfortable, but the little cyan in her eyes adds a little alienation to her.
He heard Ye Yousheng call her senior sister, then she must be more powerful than Ye Yousheng's swordsmanship, as long as she defeats her, it is equivalent to defeating Ye Yousheng at the same time.
Thinking of this, Shen Yingyao drew his sword and pointed at Qin Hao with a cold snort: "Since you are his senior sister, then you dare to fight me for him!" ”
Ye Yousheng took a step forward and stood in front of Qin Zhen, frowning and said, "Senior sister, don't pay attention to this kind of inexplicable person, I'll deal with him." ”
This kind of person who points a sword at someone as soon as he comes up and doesn't say who he is must have a problem with his brain, and he is not worthy of letting his senior sister do it at all.
Qin Hao didn't speak, but showed her right hand hidden on the big sleeve with a lonely expression.
There was a fierce wound on the wrist, about the old wound, the color had darkened, but the missing flesh had not grown back, leaving a gap in the wrist, and the bones below could be faintly seen.
The onlookers gasped, no one thought that such a quiet girl would come to the competition platform with such a wound.
She was so badly wounded that she couldn't hold a sword, and she couldn't hold any other weapon. Maybe since I was a child, I could only watch others cultivate freely with envy, but I could only stand aside.
Now she finally mustered up the courage to come to the competition platform of her peers, just to see more of the regrets that she couldn't touch, but she was provoked on the spot and forced to expose her pain in front of everyone.
What a poor girl.
Qin Zhen never said a word. She looked sad, and when everyone saw her clearly, she lowered her head as if she could not bear the humiliation, and withdrew her right hand into her sleeve with a trembling voice.
"I thought that the young sect master was just not very talented in cultivation, but I didn't expect it to ......"
"That's it, it's such a person! How could the sect master still pass on the position of the young sect master to him. ”
"It's just a pity for his brother, alas......"
The timid whispers of the people around him made the look on Shen Yingyao's face more and more ugly.
He pursed his lips, withdrew his sword, and was about to apologize to Qin Zhen when a calm voice came from behind him.
"This matter is the fault of the younger brother, in Shen Hezheng, I apologized to the Taoist friends on behalf of the younger brother."
The young man who had a six-point resemblance to Shen Yingyao walked up to Shen Yingyao, and as he spoke, he patted Shen Yingyao on the shoulder again: "Yingyao, quickly apologize to this fellow Daoist." ”
From the moment he heard Shen Hezheng's voice, Shen Yingyao couldn't help but become irritable. Especially when he was about to apologize, Shen Hezheng said this before him, it seemed that he was just listening to Shen Hezheng's words if he said anything.
"Why should I listen to you!" Shen Yingyao clenched his fists, "I am the young sect master!" He is the most favored son of father and mother! You are nothing, why should you command me! ”
With that, turn around and leave.
Shen Hezheng looked a little helpless, and hugged his fists to the monks around him: "Let everyone laugh, the game is not over yet, everyone is at your own convenience, Shen will not accompany him much." ”
The crowd heard what he meant and left with amusement.
Without the people around, Shen Hezheng looked at Qin Zhen and Ye Yousheng at this time, "The younger brother is ignorant, and the Taoist friend is wronged, and if you don't know what the friend wants, Shen can compensate the Taoist friend." ”
Qin Zhen waved her hand as if flattered: "No need, it's also my fault, don't blame the young sect master." ”
But Shen Hezheng had already stuffed a bag of spirit stones into her arms without saying anything: "These rights are Shen's intentions, and I ask Daoyou not to refuse." ”
"Shen still has to go to the sect master to report his life, and he is out of company."
Qin Zhen looked at Shen He's back as he was leaving, and the timid look on his face faded.
She thought that Shen Yingyao was instructed by her father to test her, so she exposed her wounds, not only to reassure those people, but also to disgust Shen Yingyao.
But looking at this situation, it seems that Shen Yingyao simply wants to fight?
He is the young sect master, and he will succeed to the position of the sect master of the Qianyuan Sect in the future, didn't his father tell him about the Tianyi Sect?
However, the spirit stone in his arms couldn't be faked, Qin Zhen put the spirit stone into the storage bag without any psychological burden, and rubbed Ye Yousheng's face with a smile: "Why don't you go out to eat tonight." ”
Ye Yousheng's face was serious, and he grabbed Qin Hao's hand with a straight face, and went to look at her wrist-
The hideous wound just now had disappeared, replaced by a black jade bracelet, lying quietly on Qin Hao's wrist.
"Senior sister, don't lie to me, is the wound just now real?"
Ye Yousheng stared at the bracelet for a long time, trying to see if there was a covered wound under it, but he couldn't see anything.
"Of course it's fake, when did Senior Sister lie to you."
Qin Zhen let Ye Yousheng hold his wrist and exaggeratedly wowed: "Ah Chang is bigger, and his strength is greater than that of Senior Sister." ”
Only then did Ye Yousheng realize that he had grabbed Qin Hao's hand so boldly, and the tips of his ears suddenly turned red.
Hurriedly letting go of Qin Hao's wrist, Ye Yousheng turned his head unnaturally: "I, I'm just worried about senior sister ......"
"Senior sister knows, don't worry, senior sister can take care of herself, Ah Sheng doesn't have to worry." Qin Zhen smiled very gently.
Ye Yousheng blushed and avoided her gaze, but he felt a little bitter in his heart.
In her previous life, she also said the same thing to tell him not to worry, saying that as long as she didn't want to die, no one could hurt her that day.
But in the end, she still slept forever on the high seat that symbolized the position of the suzerain.
When Ye Yousheng arrived in a hurry, those people had already begun to discuss how to use her corpse. At that time, he was just a mortal with damaged meridians, but anger and grief made him lose the ability to think, and he rushed forward desperately to avenge Qin Zhen, but naturally ended up with a dead end.
He didn't know if Qin Hao didn't want to live anymore so he volunteered to die, or if those people had the means to deal with her. But no matter which one it is, he will find a solution, so that Qin Hao can always stand on the highest place and look down on all beings.
She is the embodiment of all that is good in this world.
She deserves it.
"You still have a game, go and prepare, senior sister will go over there and wait for you to come back." Qin Zhen pushed Ye Yousheng's shoulders with both hands and sent him to the competition platform.
Ye Yousheng followed her strength and walked over there, turning around and asking, "Senior sister, don't you watch me play?" ”
"I have an acquaintance to meet...... Rest assured, it's not a dangerous thing. ”
Qin Zhen reluctantly reassured Ye Yousheng under Ye Yousheng's vigilant gaze that he finally sent Ye Yousheng away.
After confirming that she couldn't see Ye Yousheng's figure, she walked in the opposite direction of the competition platform, where there was a lotus pond with a round arch bridge on it, and some monks who had no competition were talking there.
Qin Zhen walked over slowly.
Shen Hezheng came to him, and it seemed that he had just finished reporting to the sect master of the Qianyuan Sect and was about to return to the arena.
Maybe there were too many people on the arch bridge, and the two bumped into each other.
Shen Hezheng hurriedly helped Qin Zhen up, and said apologetically: "It was Shen who was careless and collided with Daoyou again." ”
Qin Hao waved her hand indifferently, and seeing that Shen Hezheng was much paler than just now, she asked more: "Is Shen Daoyou injured?" ”
Shen Hezheng smiled weakly: "Let Daoyou see that Shen did not complete the task assigned by the sect, and he should be punished." ”
"I have a bottle of wound medicine here, Shen Daoyou can use it." Qin Hao took out a bottle of elixir from his sleeve and handed it to Shen Hezheng.
"Thank you Daoyou, Shen will accept it." Shen Hezheng showed a grateful look and asked again, "Don't know your friend's name yet?" ”
"Tianyi Sect, Qin Zhen."
"It turned out to be Sect Master Qin, and it was Shen who was negligent." Shen Hezheng hurriedly bowed and saluted.
As if they had just met, the two exchanged a few more polite words to each other, and then said goodbye to each other.
Shen Hezheng held the bottle of elixir tightly in his hand, and the bottle of elixir was engraved with a plum blossom blooming tree, which was lifelike.
He rubbed his fingers over the medicine bottle a few times, as if he had received the information he wanted, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He walked his way to a less crowded place until he came to a gray barrier.
For the other disciples of the Qianyuan Sect, this is a forbidden place that is not allowed to step into. But for Shen Hezheng, this is a hell for him alone.
He smiled self-deprecatingly, but still looked up, and walked quickly through the barrier.
In the middle of the barrier is a deep pool. Four monstrous dragon heads stood in four directions beside the deep pool, each with a black iron chain as thick as an adult's wrist in its mouth.
Shen Hezheng saw the person standing by the pond, and he knelt down respectfully towards the person: "Sect Master." ”
"Can the plan be successful?" Shen Qifeng's tone was flat.
He is the sect master of the Qianyuan Sect and the father of Shen Hezheng and Shen Yingyao.
"Yes, Qin Hao didn't doubt my words, and when he saw that I was injured, he gave me a bottle of elixir." Shen Hezheng said, offering the pill in his hand.
Shen Qifeng only glanced at it, and then withdrew his eyes with little interest: "In the end, it is a woman, she is young and soft-hearted, thinking that she is some kind of savior who can save everything." ”
Shen Hezheng lowered his head and did not speak
"Okay, you continue to keep in touch with her, gain her trust, and find a way to find out the whereabouts of the Tianyi Sect's secret treasure." Shen Qifeng commanded.
He changed his words again: "You have damaged Yingyao's face in front of outsiders, go down and be punished yourself." ”
"Yes."
Shen Hezheng jumped down from the deep pool without hesitation, and the dark iron chain instantly locked his limbs, and the aura around him was like substance, whipping his back like a whip.
"Come out to me in half an hour, I still have something to do for you." Shen Qifeng only left this sentence and left.
After feeling Shen Qifeng's breath disappear, Shen Hezheng clenched his fists tightly, and his nails pinched his palms deeply, carving blood marks.
It's like this every time, saying that it is to exercise his ability, for his good, so that he can be better prepared to inherit the position of the sect master. But with the position of the young sect master, the talent is not as good as his younger brother, but he can grow up under the care of his parents in every way, and he has what he wants.
Only him, as if he was not a blood relative to the three of them, had only his father's abuse, his mother's scolding and his brother's cynicism since he was a child.
How many times did he come back from a mission outside with an injury, wanting to get praise from his parents. But before he stepped into his mother's door, he heard his mother coaxing Shen Yingyao to sleep and telling him bedtime stories.
When he knocked on the door in silence and went in, he only got his mother's disgruntled eyes, as if she was reproaching him for bothering him so late.
In fact, he only wanted a little bit, but no one was willing to give him even this little bit of warmth.
Perhaps, what he wants is to plunder by his own means, instead of waging his tail like a dog and waiting for his master to take mercy.
