The fingers of the vigil were trembling wildly, and the sound seemed to be being shocked by electricity, trembling again and again.
“Being questioned, passive value, +1.”
"no."
Xu Xiaoshou held the straw hat on his head and was about to say something.
“Xu Xiaoshou?!”
The voice of the vigil suddenly rose a little higher, his chin stretched, and his neck leaned forward.
“Being questioned, passive value, +1.”
Xu Xiaoshou was silent for a moment.
“No.”
“Xu Xiaoshou!!!”
Shouye shouted loudly, as if his worldview had exploded. At this moment, apart from roaring, he could not do any additional actions.
He was trembling, and he stretched out his fingers unconsciously, shaking them up and down wildly.
The whole person was trembling and staggering because of fear and shock...
Obviously he is a strong man at the Dao-killing level.
But now, even when he was standing vigil, even stepping into the void, his steps felt hollow and his body was completely unstable.
“Are you Xu Xiaoshou?”
“How could you really be Xu Xiaoshou?”
At this moment, Vigil is really going crazy.
In my mind, in the ancient book space, what this "Saint Slave Laoer" did and said was played back, scene by scene, frame by frame, and then replayed again.
But the more the scene is replayed, the stronger the impact becomes.
The words and deeds of the so-called "Saint Slave Er Er", at this moment, once again severely impacted the soul of Vigil.
My mind went blank, my lips parted during the night watch, and I couldn't say even half a sentence.
"You got the wrong person."
Xu Xiaoshou knew in his heart that his subconscious response had already responded to everything.
At this moment, he only hated himself for why he felt lucky to survive the disaster so quickly, and why he couldn't run a few more steps after swallowing the pill.
Why, the night vigil arrived... so quickly!
Obviously you have "hiddenness" and "change", so there is no reason why you can feel your breath by staying vigil at night!
“How did you find me?” Xu Xiaoshou supported the straw hat and straightened his expression.
He is not a person who gives up easily.
You can use your words to avoid things in the past, but you must not do it with your hands.
Because, there is no way to beat him!
“I...”
For the first time, Vigil was impacted by a title.
He twitched the corner of his mouth, as if he wanted to laugh, but suddenly he felt sad for no reason and wanted to cry for no reason.
Absolutely awesome!
This Xu Xiaoshou is really amazing!
How did he dare to pretend to be the second son of a holy slave in a situation with so many thrones and beheadings, and still do it flawlessly?
How did he make the storyteller confide in him without any doubt?
How did he imitate the second son of a saint slave and still pretend to be so vivid and lifelike?
he……
The vigil’s mind froze.
After a pause, he asked in a daze: "So, Saint Slave Wuxiu is Mr. Sang from Tiansang Ling Palace, and he is the vice president of Tiansang City Alchemist Association."
“That is, your Xu Xiaoshou’s master?”
The suspicion that appeared at the beginning but was abandoned by everyone now comes to mind again.
Shou Ye could no longer remember how Hong Yi and others had forgotten this suspicion.
But, if you are in front of Xu Xiaoshou...
“So, it was you and Zhang Taiying who were the monsters in the city lord’s mansion that day. Are you innocent?”
“So, you are not only related to the Holy Slave, but also deeply involved with the Xuyue Gray Palace and the ghost beast itself?”
“This is the reason why you have always rejected me?”
Shouye felt that all his ideas were clear, and suddenly he roared angrily: "Yes or no!"
Xu Xiaoshou was silent for a short moment.
The vigil was surprisingly undisturbed.
After a long time, the straw hat was taken down, and Xu Xiaoshou sighed.
“Yes and no.”
As his face changed, the slightly bald head grew hair, and the deep black eye sockets transformed into the clear eyes of a young man.
Xu Xiaoshou’s eyes were sincere and full of apologies.
“I’m sorry to have deceived you, but the situation forced me to make this move as a last resort. Otherwise, it would be impossible for you and me to escape from the storyteller’s ancient book space.”
“In other words…”
“In other words, you saved my life?” Vigil roared.
“It can’t be said so directly...”
Xu Xiaoshou smiled sarcastically and said, "You can say it more euphemistically, and the meaning is almost the same, that's fine."
“I’ll kill you!”
Watch the night and drink loudly, he will pounce on you.
Xu Xiaoshou was like a frightened bird, his body shuddered and disappeared on the spot.
“Senior, wait a moment, let me explain it to you...”
“What else can you argue with?” Watching the night went crazy, changed direction, and pounced on him again.
"That's right, sophistry. Whatever I say now is just sophistry, but I also have my own reasons!"
Xu Xiaoshou climbed to the sky in one step, and appeared again in the void on the other side. He solemnly said: "If everything didn't happen for a reason, why would I be here? You think so?"
“Shut up the hell!”
“Okay, I shut up.”
Xu Xiaoshou immediately fell silent.
Shouye made several attempts and finally calmed down.
Only then did he realize that Xu Xiaoshou indeed had skills such as spatial transfer.
He immediately stroked his splitting chest and gasped: "Tell me all the stupid things you have done."
"good."
Xu Xiaoshou nodded immediately, couldn't be more obedient, and said: "This matter is a long story, I will start from Tiansang Ling Palace. I still remember that it was a sunny afternoon...
"
“Shut the fuck up!”
Shou Ye’s face turned green with anger.
Who has the time to listen to your talk about Tiansang Ling Palace?
I'm afraid you still think I'm not lame enough for being fooled by you!
“You asked me to say it.”
Xu Xiaoshou pushed forward, "Senior, calm down. We have something to talk about. The gift of the sword will never be forgotten."
He took out the famous sword Yan Python with his backhand.
However, when Vigilante saw this sword, his whole body was about to burst into pieces.
What the hell have I got to do to be so crazy that I would look at such an extremely ridiculous junior as my successor?
Where is he still a human being?
Crazy!
Freak!
Weird and perverted!
None of these are enough to describe this person named Xu!
Is this guy crazy?
How dare he scold the storyteller like that? How dare he deceive more than ten thrones and kill them?
How dare he...
Watching the night was extremely frantic.
Things are just things that you think about, but they really happen in front of you.
It still appears as a fait accompli in the past tense, phantomized by the memory of the successful realization of the result...
Xu Xiaoshou is simply unforgivable!
“Crying to hide the truth, the golden cicada escapes from its shell...”
Wu Ye folded his hands and patted them, murmuring listlessly.
He didn't even know how he should react to this at this moment.
My heart was shocked and inexplicably excited.
Admiration and mixed concerns.
But more of it is incomprehensible and unbelievable...
How did he do it?!
He must be the devil!
“Xu Xiaoshou.”
Shouye suddenly calmed down, and all his emotions converged into one place and were forgotten.
"I don't care what you did or why, but there are two things you can't explain, so..."
“I didn’t kill anyone!”
Xu Xiaoshou understood it completely at once.
Even when he realized that he was exposed, he began to think of countermeasures.
“I didn’t kill any people, I only saved the ghosts and beasts out of friendship.”
“I will not join any force.”
“The Holy Slave has nothing to do with me... My master is a Holy Slave. I didn’t know it until I entered the ancient book space and the storyteller suddenly transmitted the message to me.”
Xu Xiao was bombarded with eloquent words.
Shouye suddenly sighed softly, "Xu Xiaoshou, do you think I still dare to believe you?"
this moment.
Shouye believes that no one will be able to believe what the young man in front of him says is true and which is false.
“You don’t have to believe me.”
Xu Xiao was deeply moved by the suggestion. Suddenly, he paused for a moment and said, "Look at my eyes."
Shou Ye raised his eyes and looked.
Xu Xiaoshou’s eyes were as clear as a pond without fish, with the bottom clearly visible.
It is said that the eyes are the windows to the soul.
But during the vigil, Xu Xiaoshou suddenly felt that his heart was like a vast ocean.
This is just a window that can give you a glimpse.
But what about the other distant seas and the other side of the iceberg?
In the past, Night Watch was confident that it could capture the psychology of any teenager who was not familiar with the world, and it would be absolutely accurate.
But facing the young man in front of him, he suddenly lost all his courage.
"I can't see through you..."
Shouye said weakly: "So, I will never believe a word of your words, no, a word, even any tone!"
"I..." Xu Xiaoshou, a mute man, ate Coptis chinensis and could not express his pain.
"Come with me, if you have any excuses, the prison in red will be opened to you. Everything you said and done before will become the final proof of whatever you say."
Shouye tightened his fists, and the whole world was immediately shrouded in darkness.
At this moment, after he has completely lost the ability to judge the person in front of him, the only way he can choose is to bring Xu Xiaoshou back according to his original intention.
In the Red Prison, there is always a lot of time for heart-to-heart talk.
I want to say...
It’s not too late to tell you after we go there!
“I told you, I won’t go with you.”
Xu Xiaoshou shook his head, "Xin Gugu is my friend, so I saved the ghost beast; Yu Zhiwen is my friend, so I didn't kill her."
“Everything I do is out of my true intention. I don’t want to be associated with any force, nor do I want to be confused by the secular world or anyone’s one-sided words.”
"Use your own eyes and follow your own path, that's all!"
The vigil was very touching.
You kid, do you have a lot of connections with these forces?
He waved his hand: "Xu Xiaoshou, the biggest mistake I have ever made in my life is meeting you at the gate of the city lord's mansion."
Without you, that ghost beast...
Shouye closed her eyes heavily.
“No, that’s not a mistake.”
Xu Xiaoshou resolutely said: "That's luck!"
…”
The scene was quiet for a long time.
Shouye slowly stretched out his hand: "Don't struggle any more."
“I don’t struggle.”
Xu Xiaoshou flipped his hand and took out Lu Ke's human-shaped ice sculpture, "If you want to catch me, I will crush it."
Vigil:???
The corners of his mouth suddenly twitched again, and the veins on his face popped out.
Xu Xiaoshou……
Hello, Xu Xiaoshou!
The old man said, how could there be two people with such similar temperaments in this world?
In the ancient book space, I should have captured you long ago!
“I didn’t kill him.”
Xu Xiaoshou said sincerely: "What I did was just for everyone. Storyteller, if you can't handle it, my friend will die."
"what can I do?"
“I also want to live alone, but I find that I can’t do it!”
“I stood up, but...”
Xu Xiaoshou couldn't help but look up to the sky, "But I'm just a genius, will you listen to me? I have an idea, will you let me implement it? I dare to stop the storyteller, will you let me try it?"
“I just want a result, a good result, that’s all.”
Xu Xiaoshou swallowed his saliva, nodded and said, "Is it okay?"
"Can't."
Shouye shook his head.
He understands, he feels the same, but he is also afraid.
He was afraid that Xu Xiaoshou was still the same Xu Xiaoshou, or that Xu Xiaoshou was no longer the same Xu Xiaoshou.
He is afraid of being cheated.
He was treated by Xu Xiao, and he had different opinions!
“Follow me and wait until everything is explained. If you are not suspicious, I will definitely be able to protect you...”
“You fart!”
Xu Xiaoshou suddenly yelled, paused, and then apologized: "I'm sorry, I didn't choose what I said."
“It doesn’t matter, I don’t care.”
Shouye opened his arms and said: "Come with me, Xu Xiaoshou, don't make any more mistakes, and give me the Lu Ke in your hand first."
“I can’t pay you back...”
Xu Xiaoshou suddenly felt a sore nose.
He understood how Shouye understood him, and he could also feel that the old man in front of him had repeatedly tolerated him.
But……
Following him back is impossible!
Don’t talk about Xingugu, don’t talk about caramel sugar.
In his Yuan Mansion, there is also a Greedy God and a "Ghost and Beast Contract".
Once all of this is revealed, even jumping into the Yellow River will not be able to wash it away!
But……
Can we not save it?
Xu Xiaoshou clenched his fists, feeling that his true self was suddenly powerless in the face of the world.
“Senior…”
“I can’t let you go!”
Vigil interrupted directly, "The holy slaves, the ghost beasts, and you, Xu Xiaoshou, have done all the deceptive things in the face of Hong Yi. Strictly speaking, they will be punished by death."
“Senior!”
Xu Xiaoshou interrupted again loudly: "How many times have I said that I am not only doing this for myself, but also for..."
He couldn't go on.
“Saint slave?” The conversation changed and Xu Xiao said bitterly: “I know you don’t believe it, but the saint slave wants me, how can I resist?”
“In Tiansang Ling Palace, in the outer courtyard, even then I was still struggling for the competition.”
“The roots have been planted!”
“The fruit has already been borne!”
“When I look back, everything is a foregone conclusion...”
“Sang Lao, is already my master!”
Shou Ye’s eyes darkened.
He doesn’t believe it.
Xu Xiaoshou’s eyes suddenly turned red.
“Ghost beast?”
“What can I do about the ghost beast?”
“I, Xu Xiaoshou, have already told you about your Hongyi beliefs, and I don’t agree with them!”
“What I feel and identify with are the living, affectionate people who appear in front of me, not ghosts and beasts!”
“Do you dare to say that when you saw the determined ghost beast, the tauren, and the irrational eight-winged red dragon python, you didn’t feel the slightest fluctuation in your heart?” Xu Xiaoshou shouted angrily.
I have...
Shouye agreed in his heart, but the way was different and they were not conspiring with each other.
Those who deserve to die and be exterminated, no matter how the afterglow blooms, it is just a desperate attempt to survive and a powerless resistance.
Be pitied.
But any dutiful red-coat will not hold back for this.
Xu Xiao was angry.
He saw Vigil's expression and already guessed his inner reaction.
“But what about me?”
He roared and roared: "I'm just like most people who go to Lijian Grassland, I want to try my luck."
“Who would have thought that there is a storyteller there and a space of ancient books that has been dormant for a long time.”
“They died…”
Xu Xiaoshou thought of the large number of young practitioners who died on the spot because of red clothes’ tactics and because of storytellers.
"And me?"
He asked back: "I entered the ancient book space, I'm not dead yet, and I don't want to die yet!"
“What I have done is summed up in a high-sounding way. The sacrifice is small, but the big one is fulfilled. Let’s all come out together.”
“A selfish way of saying it…”
Xu Xiaoshou pondered for a moment and said seriously: "I am doing it for myself! I just want to survive, that's all."
“Is there something wrong?!”
That's right... Vigil closed his eyes heavily, but...
“I just want to survive...”
Xu Xiaoshou thought of the White Grotto, the City Lord's Mansion, and the Tiansang Ling Palace, and suddenly tears filled his eyes.
He thought of Xingugu.
I also thought of that lonely white ward.
The suppressed emotions that were about to roar like wild beasts seemed to have been softened by all these memories. Xu Xiaoshou's voice lowered, as if he was talking to himself.
“I just want to have many friends on the premise of surviving, that’s all.”
