However, to the surprise of the elders, not only did Yun Feiyang hide the truth about this matter, but even the little disciples who were caught by Li Wanxiao and them to show the way were also silent about it, and some people prevaricated in a few words when asked.

As for the reason, only he knew, after all, what he saw that night was more than just the scene of the two of them walking into the cave. The lightning that followed, the sword roar that resounded through the valley, all subverted his imagination fiercely. So he didn't dare to say anything, no matter who asked him, he didn't dare to say more, for fear of being settled by those two sword thieves with high mana.

Especially the woman whose eyes were full of stars, the true owner of the "Clear Spring" sword, made him feel even more chilled.

These two major events occurred in Lingshan one after another, so that the entire sect fell into chaos that was difficult to calm, and even the Shendan Grand Meeting was also affected.

Sitting at home biting on the osmanthus cake, Li Wanxiao listened to Mengzi chatter about the gossip of Lingshan while fiddling with his sword.

"Hey, leave the girl, are you listening to me?" Mengzi said for a long time, but people ignored him at all, and his eyes kept glued to the sword in his hand.

"Shut up, it's too noisy!" Li Wanxiao sighed helplessly, "What do you say such a small sword can be used for?

Yufeng just walked in, and when he heard Li's complaint, he couldn't help but reply: "Such a good treasure, you want to use it to cut watermelon? ”

"Why are you so idle, Sister Zisheng is fine?" Li Wanxiao pouted, this kid is even more disobedient than Mengzi, and he doesn't plan to leave when he comes to her house, except for helping to heal Zisheng every day, he spends the rest of his time wandering around in the small courtyard, except for Dugu Che, he doesn't listen to anyone, he is clearly a rebellious teenager!

"It's okay for the time being, Jun Wuxian is guarding there. When he saw the sword in his hand, his eyes lit up.

"Doctor, do you want to sell this sword? You won't use it anyway, so you might as well sell it to me at a price." ”

Seeing the kid's appearance of being a fan of wealth, without waiting for Liwan to open his mouth, Mengzi slapped him directly on the head: "What do you kid think? Qingquan is also what you can think?"

"Qingquan?!" Wei Feng has been busy healing Zi Sheng for the past two days, and he is the last one to know the name of this sword. At that moment, he couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise, and looked at Li Wan with a shock: "You are the master of the Qingquan Sword?" Doctor Li, don't lie to me." ”

Li Wanxiao frowned a little uncomfortably, "This sword can only be used by me, and others can't seem to use it, I don't believe you can try it." After saying that, he handed the sword to Mi Feng and motioned for him to pick it up and dance twice. Unexpectedly, the kid froze, his face full of shock and disbelief, and his words became stammering.

"You, did you really let me touch it? are you sure?"

Mengzi on the side was speechless, he was really a guy who had never seen the world! If he saw the birth of the Lord's magic sword, he would be so frightened that he would directly bow his knees and kneel down to worship.

"Ahem, if someone asks you to touch it, you really touch it!" Mengzi reminded with a light cough, "This was given by that person, do you dare to touch it?"

"Huh?" Yu Feng's excited expression collapsed instantly, he was most afraid of Dugu Che, it was a kind of fear emanating from the bottom of his heart. A little devil like him, who has a very low cultivation level and no ability, will naturally retreat from the strong, and this kind of behavior is almost an innate instinct.

Liwanxiao's fingertips swiped the intricate patterns carefully engraved on the sword, and the soft light in Dugu's eyes when she got the sword kept replaying in her mind, and the thick affection fell on her heart unabashedly.

She knew that he was that kind of person, who had done too many things for her, but he was only for her good. He didn't say anything, buried everything in his heart, but she knew all this, so she felt sorry for his dedication, and hoped that she could have the ability to stand side by side with him one day. I believe that at that time, he will not have to plan for her everywhere, but can face the wind and rain hand in hand.

Li Wanxiao sniffed and put the sword on the table, she wanted to go to Dugu Che to learn spells, she felt that she could only make herself more and more powerful. in order to help Dugu Che when he needs help.

Thinking of this, the idea of learning spells became stronger and stronger. Yun Feiyang is right, she can't just stay in Dugu Che's arms and wait for him to protect her, she can also learn something to protect herself, and even take him over to protect him when he is tired.

Of course, Dugu Che didn't know that Li Wanxiao was thinking about these things in his mind when he was rubbing his sword, so when he and Yin Xiaoran were talking about things in the courtyard, the moment Li Wanxiao ran out inexplicably and said that she wanted to learn spells, Dugu Che's heart had a general understanding.

Turning to look at her, Dugu Che waved his hand to let Yin Xiaoran go to do things first, and he nodded without mind, "As long as you are willing to learn, I am willing to teach, but we have to say well, you can't use the spells I taught you to tease others, if someone finds out that you are a mortal girl who will use so many spells, it will inevitably cause trouble." ”

This is a half-truth, Dugu Che naturally knows the chaos inside Lingshan at this time, and they can still stay in the mountain village and live their own comfortable life incognito. A large part of the reason is that they keep a low profile, every time they go to Lingshan to make trouble, they carefully pack up their hands and tails, and they are still ordinary doctors on the surface, which will not make people suspicious.

"I promise!" Li Wanxiao raised three fingers, swore an oath, and said with a serious face: "As long as you teach me spells, I promise not to show it in front of people, after all, we are not people who love to show off like Mengzi, right?"

"You still don't like to show off?" Dugu Che hooked the corners of his mouth helplessly, "I'll teach you the mantra of stealth first, go back and practice it yourself, and check it at night." ”

"No. Li Wanxiao scratched her head embarrassedly and looked at him with squints, her eyes full of stars. Dugu Che also swept away the seriousness of talking to Yin Xiaoran just now, and the whole person became softer, so warm that he would only appear in front of the girl, but it was rare for others to see him.

Fingertips tapped the center of her eyebrows, and she taught a series of mental formulas. Dugu Che naturally knew that Li Wanxiao had no practice, so what she taught her were the simplest and most effective spells, which were not inferior to Mengzi's stealth technique, but they couldn't last too long.

"Remember?"

Li Wanxiao opened her eyes, pondered the voice echoing in her head carefully, and said after a while: "It's a little difficult." ”

"It's okay, practice slowly, you're very talented, don't waste it. Dugu Che reluctantly held her hand, their time was getting less and less, but he still had a lot of words to say to her, there were many ways to protect himself and didn't have time to teach her, I just hoped that the girl would not be affected too much in the future.

"Hey, you're so nice. Li Wanxiao climbed on his arm and obediently snuggled beside him, "And that sword, it's good-looking, but I can't use it, and I'm not a hero who hoes the strong and helps the weak." ”

"Do you know how to use a sword? Can you teach me?"

Dugu Che led her to sit at the tea table in the small courtyard, brought over the preserved fruit that Mengzi brought back from walking down the mountain, picked a small piece of dried fruit and handed it to her mouth, looked at Li Wanxiao and took a bite unceremoniously, and then said: "What's the matter lately, I always want to learn this and that, I haven't seen you so active before." ”

Li Wanxiao picked and picked in the preserved fruit plate while eating, and muttered casually: "It's too idle!"

"You have a mouth. Dugu Che shook his head and chuckled, reached out and nodded her little nose, and said dotingly: "You must have seen something, right?"

Speaking of which, Li Wanxiao's mouth that was trying to eat without stopping also stopped. He knows it all!

"Dugu Che, actually...... I believed some of what Brother Yun said. ”

It's not that she doesn't trust him, it's just that Yun Feiyang's words are not unreasonable. From the very beginning, she understood that Dugu Che was not an ordinary person, otherwise she would not be locked up in that kind of place.

"You're from the Demon Realm, aren't you?"

The two looked at each other, and the warm autumn sun was scattered on them, one was cold and handsome, the other was delicate and lovely, and anyone who saw it would praise a match made in heaven. But these words make them seem to be separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, and it is difficult to come together no matter what.

She can be friends with demons, but it is difficult for her to accept staying with her for the rest of her life. Because, Li Wanxiao will never forget her master, and the people of their village died in whose hands.

People and demons have different paths, and they are different in the end.

Dugu Che looked at her for a long time before he spoke softly: "You know everything." ”

"You admit it?" Li Wanxiao's heart sank slightly, these things she didn't want to say. has always felt that as long as he can stay by her side, she is willing to be a silly girl for the rest of her life, not listening, not asking, and not wanting to live to understand.

Dugu Che sighed slightly, the light in his eyes dimmed a lot, "I know you will understand this one day, but I still hope that day will come later." ”

"Wanxiao, you remember, no matter who I am, what identity I have, and where I will be in the future, I will always be Dugu Che by your side. Looking at her eyes seriously, Dugu Che said word by word, "Only what you see is the real me, and I am sincere to you." ”

Having lived for thousands of years, he had never said such a thing. always feels that this kind of love is too hypocritical, and children's love is dispensable for him. It wasn't until he met her that he saw his true self clearly, it turned out that when he was injured, he also wanted someone to stay by his side, and when he was confused, he also hoped that someone could accompany him, so that he was complete with flesh and blood.

The deep love in his eyes was like a slender silver needle piercing into the softest place in his heart, and he only felt that his eyes were astringent, as if something hot was about to flow out.

Quickly turned his face away and rubbed his eyes, "Dugu Che, I didn't disbelieve you, don't be so sensational, it's okay, it's weird and uncomfortable." ”

picked a piece of sweet preserved fruit and handed it to him, watching him eat it with his meek mouth, and leaving all those miscellaneous thoughts behind him.

Dugu Che, because it is you, I am willing to choose to believe, but I also hope that you will not live up to my trust......
