It was already three o'clock in the afternoon when they came to the destination, and the moment they walked into the inner hall, the Guigu group was the main door by this solemn atmosphere. The first thing that catches your eye is Xiaoyaozi, the head of the Taoist sect, sitting on the left hand side of Xiaoyaozi is Mr. Zhang San, a Confucian scholar, and on the right hand is Duanmu Rong, a doctor of the medical family. The faces of the three of them were extremely solemn.

Guigu and his party first gave a salute, and Xiaoyaozi said without a tone: "Brother Guigu, sit down." ”

Guiguzi sat in the lower seat, facing the direction of Guiguzi.

Zhang Liang bowed slightly to Guiguzi, and then said, "I've seen Guiguzi." ”

Duanmu Rong also nodded at Guiguzi, didn't say anything, and Guiguzi also returned the salute.

Xiao Zhuang glanced at it and saw Zhang Liang, although he was very happy, but because of the atmosphere at the moment, Xiao Zhuang just looked at Zhang Liang and said, "You are here too." ”

"Yes. Xiao Zhuang has not seen him for a long time. Zhang Liang got up and walked straight to the two brothers, out of politeness, Zhang Liang knelt down in front of Gai Nie, so that Gai Nie could look at himself as much as possible, after all, looking at the Sword Saint condescendingly was too disrespectful to him. Zhang Liang gave Gai Nie a shallow smile and said in an extremely respectful tone: "I have heard of the great name of the Sword Saint for a long time, and I am honored to meet you today. ”

Gai Nie smiled modestly: "I have heard of Mr. Zhang San of Confucianism for a long time, and when I saw it today, it was really extraordinary. Gagnie said this, and then the two of them sat down hand in hand.

"Eh!" Xiao Zhuang looked at his former friend and his senior brother sitting hand in hand, feeling a little unhappy, but it was not easy to say anything, so he only showed a depressed expression, and after a while, he returned to normal, walked to Gai Nie and sat down.

Diagonally opposite Gai Nie is Duanmu Rong, Gai Nie nodded slightly at Duanmu Rong, which was regarded as a greeting, and Duanmu Rong just glanced at Gai Nie in response, and then moved his gaze in other directions with a roll of his eyes. The embarrassing atmosphere hit again, Guiguzi coughed lightly twice to break the deadlock, and he said, "Brother Xiaoyao, how are you doing lately?" Although Guiguzi likes to speak more straightforwardly, but he is good-looking, he knows that Xiaoyaozi called him about Gai Nie, but he is embarrassed to say it, so he can only greet him.

"En, I'm still here," Xiaoyaozi frowned and replied slowly.

Xiao Zhuang suddenly interjected: "It's good?"

Xiaoyaozi still frowned, and slowly continued: "Not bad. ”

"If you have something to say, you might as well say it. Xiao Zhuang didn't seem to be able to stand this kind of greeting, and he urged.

"Xiao Zhuang, don't be presumptuous!" Guiguzi heard Xiao Zhuang's words, and immediately glared at him, signaling him not to talk too much.

"What are you afraid of? Xiao Zhuang said nonchalantly, probably because Xiaoyaozi supported him.

"It's all the old man's fault, Xiaozhuang is spoiled by me. Xiaoyaozi twisted his beard and looked at Xiaozhuang with a doting face, with a little self-reproach in his words, but more of a pampering.

When Xiaozhuang provoked the fire ghost valley, he would come to Xiaoyaozi to seek refuge, Xiaoyaozi felt that Xiaozhuang was cute and well-behaved, so he liked this ghost valley disciple more and more, although he couldn't teach him Taoism, but he still took him as his own child as a pamper. As time went on, Xiao Zhuang became more and more lawless in Xiaoyaozi's house, no big or small, it was simply inflated!

"That Guigu brother. Xiaoyaozi said with an embarrassed face: "Although we have found a method for making the Immortal Pill, but" Xiaoyaozi spoke in a hurry, and he should have encountered a particularly difficult thing.

"I heard Miss Duanmu mention it last time. Gai Nie frowned and said, "What's wrong?"

"Well, it's a little bit of a problem. Xiaoyaozi nodded, his face became even more ugly, he handed Mr. Zhang San and Duanmu Rong a look of help in turn, Zhang Liang nodded slightly towards Guiguzi after understanding, and then said, "It's up to me to say." ”

Zhang Liang's complexion was better than Xiaoyaozi's at the moment, but he was still iron-blue, and he slowly spoke: "The formula for the Immortal Pill was indeed found by Miss Duanmu, but that is only part of it. ”

Hearing this, Guiguzi, Gai Nie, and Xiaozhuang all showed surprised and unintelligible expressions, and they all looked at Zhang Liang with burning eyes, and their eyes showed doubts.

Zhang Liang had already said it in the most euphemistic words, he wanted to minimize the blow received by the Guigu group, he paused, as if he was sorting out the sentences, and then said slowly: "That is to say, we only found the upper part of the Immortal Pill, but the lower volume is missing. ”

"What are you talking about?" Xiao Zhuang exclaimed unexpectedly, his expression a little exaggerated because of extreme surprise.

Gai Nie couldn't believe it, so his tone of voice dropped by three points, and he said, "How can this be?"

Guiguzi was speechless in shock.

"That's about how it happened. Mr. Zhang San showed an apologetic look, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth seemed to be innate, indelible: "I'm sorry, I've disappointed you." We will continue to look for ways to dissolve the medicinal properties in you. Zhang Liang said apologetically.

Gai Nie was still a little incredulous, he moved his gaze to Duanmu Rong, it seemed that in his eyes, Duanmu Rong's words were the most credible, he looked nervous and looked a little pitiful.

Duanmu Rong nodded in response.

It was like a thunderbolt from the blue, and the help of the three families was like a ray of brightness that appeared in the black hole, as if there was an exit, and now Gai Nie was like he was blind before he reached the exit, and he could no longer see the bright road to the other side.

Guiguzi looked at Gai Nie silently, he didn't know what he should say at the moment, the words of comfort were too pale, and it was in vain to give encouragement.

After pondering for a long time, Gai Nie squeezed out a trace of embarrassment, and pretended to be relaxed and said: "This time is really hard for everyone, and there is nothing to repay if you don't do it next" Speaking of this, Gai Nie suddenly couldn't go on, if before, he could still say that he could help everyone to repay everyone, and now, Gai Nie can't even take care of himself, let alone others.

When he got home, he locked himself in the same room where he had lived, and the furnishings in the room were still the same as before, with large clothes on the back of the chair, a hat and backpack hanging on a hook on the door, and a pair of socks to be washed, half-draped in a cardboard box.

Looking at everything in the room, it was so big, so familiar and yet I was out of place with everything in the room, the mobile phones on the bedside table seemed huge, and I couldn't hold it with both hands. Gai Nie looked out the window, a round of silver moon light sprinkled in the room without lights, it looked so bright, under the moonlight, Gai Nie's face was clearly reflected, but this gentle moonlight could not smooth Gai Nie's forehead tightly locked eyebrows.

On the huge bed, he was the only one, and the bed that used to feel a little narrow was now able to roll on it, he sighed lightly, stared at the bright moon, and whispered: "This moonlight, will also be sprinkled on Rong'er at this moment, right?" He stretched out his hand and let the moonlight shine on his palm, and the lines of his palm were clearly illuminated, a little cool. He gently grasped the moonlight, but he couldn't grasp it, the moonlight seemed to be conscious, as long as Gai Nie grabbed it, the moonlight would immediately run to Gai Nie's fingers and the back of his hand. I can't catch it.

The moonlight seems to be Rong'er, no matter how hard Gai Nie tries, it won't have anything to do with Duanmu Rong anymore. has become like this, it can't give Rong'er happiness, instead of breaking the thread, it is better to directly cover Nie Nie He doesn't want to think about it anymore, he doesn't have the courage to continue to think about it, he reclines on the back cushion, and the soft cushion gently lifts him up, maybe it can be regarded as a comfort. Gagnie had never felt so lonely and lonely.

The quiet air seemed to drive Gai Nie crazy, he gasped, and the figures of three people kept flashing in his mind, Duanmu Rong, Xiao Zhuang, and Ying Zheng.

Xiao Zhuang's hand is holding Duanmu Rong's appearance, and Xiao Zhuang and Duanmu Rong are getting married. Xiao Zhuang and Duanmu Rong hugged Xiao Xiaozhuang, like a slide, flashing constantly, no matter how they waved and drove away, it was useless.

Gradually, the picture turned to Ying Zheng's appearance, in his mind, Ying Zheng's hand holding Gai Nie, Ying Zheng and Gai Nie getting married, Ying Zheng and Gai Nie gave birth to Ying Xiao Nie. One by one, they appeared in Gai Nie's mind, and they still couldn't be dispersed no matter how they were dispersed.

In his mind, Ying Zheng's face was like a demon, stretching out his claws towards Gai Nie little by little. And the main cause of this incident is still Ying Zheng! It was all controlled by him! From the beginning of ordering Gai Nie to take the elixir of life, maybe all this is a trap, all of which are traps designed by Ying Zheng, and Ying Zheng pushed the innocent Gai Nie step by step into his own trap, so as to trap him and imprison him in the palace.

Gai Nie thought so, and suddenly woke up from his dream, and the thoughts in his heart became clear little by little, maybe all this was really Yingzheng's trap. Thinking so, Gayne's anger grew to froze, and he gasped again, perhaps from anger, perhaps from waking up from a nightmare.

Thoughts are flying, and you can't stop.
