The applause and noises of "papa" could be heard far away in the dead horse market. The quiet and chaotic atmosphere seemed even more depressing, as if the original feeling of terror was infinitely amplified.
Dongfang Shiming even felt creepy. But seeing that it all came from the guy in front of me, I felt a little more at ease.
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, I answered it correctly. It seems that I can continue to follow the clues.
"Is this atmosphere your current state of mind?" He took the opportunity to ask, "Is it... that there is no way out?"
He even trembled a little when he said this.
He believes that there is no way out, which means that there is a possibility of breaking the deadlock with Jiuche Xiaoyingyu. And as long as there is a slight possibility, he will never let go of the opportunity to make it a reality.
However, Xi Zishi did not answer immediately.
Dongfang Shiming waited for a moment, and there was only solid silence in his ears. He slowly raised his head and saw that Xi Zishi's face was already filled with tears.
"Why are you crying?" Dongfang Shiming was shocked by the changes in front of him and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.
Xi Zishi still held the brocade that Dongfang Shiming handed over just now. He suddenly came to his senses, lowered his head to wipe his tears, and slowly stood up from the ground.
Dongfang Shiming held his arm, but there was confusion and confusion in his eyes.
Only by knowing the whole story of his pain can he be pulled out of the quagmire of Jiuche Xiaoying, and even become a boost to the right path.
Taking advantage of the alcohol that has not dissipated, Xi Zishi's heart is on fire. He looked at the completely unfamiliar faces around him, but he felt that the truth from his heart was about to come out, and it could no longer be suppressed.
That is Gui Xiao Changyuan's most common method, and it is also the most helpless story.
At the same time, Fu Yunge also came to the horse market. Seeing the gloomy colors in front of him, his heart couldn't help but "thump".
He didn't expect it to look like this at all, and Fu Yunge suddenly felt bad in his heart. I wonder where Dongfang Shiming is now. Is he safe?
With cold sweat dripping from his brow, Fu Yunge immediately drew out his sword and rushed towards the depths of the horse market.
The faint red light quickly swallowed up his steps.
"Isn't it still, it's quite ironic..."
"You mean," Dongfang Shiming frowned, "Do you think he has regarded you as his pawns from the beginning?"
Xi Zishi raised his head and looked at the night sky as dark as a blood cave: "Originally, who wanted to believe it? But after a brother of mine who was not destined to die was killed, I had to believe it."
Dongfang Shiming also felt a little sad after listening to Xi Zishi's confused narration.
Listening to his confusing stories, at least you can hear some of the past. For example, he and the "A Tian" he called "A Tian" were classmates at Qingya Academy and students of their teacher Tantai Zi.
Dongfang Shiming had never heard of Tantaizi. He was probably just an ordinary master from Qingya Academy. But according to what Xi Zishi said, he taught the two of them many principles and was their lifelong admirable mentor.
Later, Xi Zishi traveled alone and met today's ghost Xiao Changyuan. When he was young at that time, he became a close friend with his friend Qinshu. The two have similar aspirations, and despite the age difference, they have no problem with each other.
After that, it was time for him to reunite with A Tian.
Since then, he has been desperately pursuing Ah Tian, and it was Gui Xiao Changyuan who was "making suggestions" by his side. The three of them got along equally well. Later, with the help of Gui Xiao Changyuan, Xi Zishi got his wish and won the heart of the beautiful woman.
At this point, the story seems to be progressing in a better direction. But as Xi Zishi's tone suddenly dropped, the story took a turn and fell into a trough.
Everything started when they planned to return to Qingya Academy to visit the former school.
From that earlier period, Gui Xiao Changyuan gradually became mysterious, often leaving alone and never returning to menstruation. Regarding the changes in his best friend, Xi Zishi decided to remain silent out of trust.
At the same time, he and A Tian also decided to go back to Qingya Academy for a visit. After all, I have been classmates for such a long time, and I will feel emotional when I return to my hometown.
However, unexpectedly, before arriving at the former school, bad news about the school came first.
——The school tomb forest was burned and looted.
When Xi Zishi told this sentence to Dongfang Shiming again, he gritted his teeth. Dongfang Shiming could even see the anger in his pupils, as if it was still like yesterday after so many years.
At that time, two people who happened to arrive nearby heard that the coffin had been stolen and immediately decided to recover it.
What was even more hateful was that one of the stolen coffins was the coffin of their master Tantaizi.
The two men were so angry that they tracked him in the woods all night. After working hard for several days, they finally found the group of thieves who dared to burn down Qingya Academy.
However, the reality was not what they expected.
After meeting with the thieves, the two people who were investigating alone did not expect that they had many people and were good at ambush. The two people who had just obtained the Xuanhui at that time were unfortunately ambushed, and the situation suddenly took a turn for the worse.
The thieves seemed unwilling to see them die like this. Instead, they first dragged out their master's coffin, and before their eyes, pushed the coffin off the cliff!
At the same time, two butcher knives fell towards their necks.
But at such a critical moment, that person, that ghost Xiao Changyuan. Using his best trick, he fell from the sky again.
Xi Zishi has known for a long time that Gui Xiao Changyuan has superb martial arts. It was like the last sight of him in this world, as he was holding the coffin firmly with one hand and rising into the air like a hero from the bottom of the cliff.
He saved the lives of both men and the fate of their mentor.
After that, Gui Xiao Changyuan had another benefactor's shadow on Xi Zishi. Gradually, Gui Xiao Changyuan helped him and A Tian resolve crises several times, and the burden of this favor became heavier and heavier unknowingly.
Until one day, Gui Xiao Changyuan came to him specifically and told him about the plan called "Jiuche Xiaoying".
At this moment, he could no longer see the face of his first friend. Instead, there is a powerful aura that is both benevolent and powerful and cannot be refused.
It was also after that day that he joined Gui Xiao Changyuan's command after experiencing entanglements and hesitations. His identity is no longer that of Gui Xiao Changyuan's old friend, but as the closest envoy of the "Shadow Master".
Xi Zishi seemed to want to take advantage of the last bit of drunkenness to tell all the words in his chest and abdomen to the person in front of him. Regardless of whether he could listen to it or not, he had endured it for too long, so he should have an outlet to vent.
Full of emotions, like an out-of-control torrent, all poured into Dongfang Shiming's senses.
Dongfang Shiming looked at the silent man in front of him, like a frustrated rubber ball. In addition to sympathy, he also had a lot of thoughts and calculations in his heart.
"Your undestined brother, doesn't mean..." Dongfang Shiming's heart sank. He recalled a name Fu Yunge had said in his mind, and suddenly felt a little bad.
