His hands were so cold because he was angry.
As soon as he saw Xiao Yuesheng, he couldn't help but get angry. When he thought of Xiao Yuesheng coveting the master, he was going crazy.
After entering the room, the two of them sat in front of the round table, one on the left and the other on the right. Mu Yichang held his hand and covered it with him.
Seeing Mu Yichang treating him like this, Gu Liushang felt helpless.
He obviously heard what she said with his own ears, but as long as she was a little nice to him, he couldn't control his feelings at all.
Mu Yichang asked him, "Has the anger dissipated?"
Although Gu Liushang wanted to say no, in order to go down the mountain with his master and watch his master prevent Xiao Yuesheng from succeeding, he could only nod.
Mu Yichang smiled happily, "That's good, although it was indeed Yihan's fault that day. You were sulking to yourself all the time, and your body couldn't bear it, right?"
Gu Liushang still nodded silently.
Mu Yichang said many words to comfort him, but he didn't listen to any of them.
After all, the reason why he was angry was not Mu Yihan at all, but his master.
But what made Gu Liushang angry was that Mu Yichang didn't even mention taking him down the mountain.
This made Gu Liushang a little anxious, "Where are you going tomorrow?"
If she didn't mention it, he would take the initiative on his own.
Mu Yichang was startled, and the comforting words she had not yet spoken were choked back. She secretly thought in her heart: This change of topic was too abrupt.
She suddenly realized something. Looking at him like this, he didn't seem to have lost his temper at all. It seemed that he came here today because of her going down the mountain.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but smile and said: "We are going to Donglin Mountain, are you going?"
Gu Liushang obviously looked like he wanted to go, but he pretended to be hesitant and thought about it.
Mu Yichang tilted her head and watched his performance quietly, finding him even more adorable.
Finally, as expected, he said: "It's okay to go down the mountain for a walk. I'll be bored to death in the mountain all day."
Mu Yichang asked him with a smile on her face, "Do you know what I want to do when I go down the mountain?"
As expected, the man was startled, a little stunned.
Mu Yichang added: "There is a rat infestation in the mountains to the east, and rat demons are rampant. Aren't you always most afraid of rats? Are you still going to follow?"
The fear of mice was a thorn in Gu Liushang's heart.
Whether in his previous life or in this life, he was afraid of mice.
In his previous life, he was laughed at by his master many times because he was a grown man who was afraid of rats. Now he is still laughed at by his master when he is disguised as a girl.
Mu Yichang came over and stared at him, "If there are mice, do you still want to go?"
Gu Liushang's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he said: "It's not like I went down the mountain to slay the demons, why should I hide far away? Besides, I'm... not that scared..."
He didn't even want to say the words 'afraid of mice', it was so embarrassing.
Unable to hold it back, Mu Yichang burst into laughter.
The man immediately cast a resentful look at her.
She suppressed her laughter and said, "It's up to you. If you want to go, I'll take you with me. But I've already said it before. Don't force it if you're really afraid. After all, this time, I’m not going down the mountain to play. If you want to go out and relax, wait until I come back and I’ll take you out alone.”
But Gu Liushang didn't just want to stick to her, what's more important was that the person who went down the mountain with the master this time... was Xiao Yuesheng.
So, he nodded very firmly.
Mu Yichang didn't know why he insisted, but since that was the case, she wouldn't refuse.
"good."
Gu Liushang let out a dull sigh and stood up to leave.
Mu Yichang held his hand with her backhand and said, "Just leave like this?"
The young man stiffened and turned back to look at her hesitantly, his eyes a little complicated.
But when he met Mu Yichang's smiling eyes, the resentment in his heart was immediately weakened.
His eyes tightened, and he cursed in his heart that he was worthless, but he couldn't resist.
Mu Yichang said: "Sit down and talk to Master."
Gu Liushang hesitated for a moment, then sat down.
"What do you want to say?" He said dullly.
Mu Yichang was a little discouraged and said: "Ah, why did you stay angry for so long this time?"
Gu Liushang pursed his lips and said, "I'm not angry."
When he said this, his eyes were lowered and his mood seemed very low.
Mu Yichang raised her hand and gently touched Gu Liushang's cheek, "What's wrong? Are you still unhappy? When Master comes down the mountain, I'll buy you some candy, okay?"
Gu Liushang, who had not made any move at first, suddenly ducked and looked at her angrily.
Mu Yichang couldn't help but smile, and still reached out to pinch his face, "Don't be angry. It's been so many days. If you continue to be so angry, it will become ugly."
It's rare that the person who always loves beauty said: "It's ugly as long as it's ugly, no one will look at me anyway."
Mu Yichang was a little surprised and tilted her head to look at him, "Who said no? Master is looking at you, isn't he? Is there anything on your mind lately?"
The man pursed his lips and said nothing.
Mu Yichang added: "When Master was as old as you, he had a lot of things on his mind and didn't like to tell others, but it was uncomfortable to hold them in his heart. Master has been through this too."
She always treats Gu Liushang without any sense of distance between master and disciple, and often refers to me directly.
But whenever she lacks the attitude of an elder, she will call herself master.
Although this was her hard work, Gu Liushang didn't want to appreciate it, and even found it annoying.
He hated his master treating him like a child.
As a result, Gu Liushang turned his head and remained silent, refusing to speak.
Mu Yichang sighed, thinking that the child was now older and couldn't fool around like before.
With no other choice, Mu Yichang had no choice but to shake her head and said, "Forget it, if Ah Zang doesn't want to tell Master, just wait until Ah Zang wants to say it."
Gu Liushang bit his lip and suddenly said, "Master is lying."
Before Mu Yichang could recover from her daze and ask what she had lied to him about, the man had already pushed Mu Yichang's hand away, stood up and left.
Mu Yichang looked at the unclosed door and the man's figure gradually moving away, feeling an indescribable feeling in her heart.
She rubbed her heart subconsciously, feeling that something... wasn't quite right.
On the second day, Mu Yichang and Xiao Yuesheng set out together, each bringing a disciple.
Mu Yichang naturally brought Gu Liushang, but Xiao Yuesheng brought Xiao Shuyu instead of Liu Shu.
When seeing Xiao Shuyu, Mu Yichang could not deny that she was happy.
She was worried that she wouldn't have a chance to meet Xiao Shuyu, but now she was given a wonderful opportunity.
What makes Mu Yichang strange is that Xiao Yuesheng's face didn't look good from the beginning to the end, and she didn't know what happened between the master and the disciple.
Vaguely, Mu Yichang seemed to see the shadows of herself and Gu Liushang between Xiao Yuesheng and Xiao Shuyu.
This made her dazed. After a moment, she came back to her senses and felt that she was ridiculously outrageous.
How could she and Ah Zhan be similar to Xiao Yuesheng and Xiao Shuyu?
That woman is simply a lunatic. She clearly likes her master Xiao Yuesheng, but in the end she enjoys Gu Liushang's favor while torturing herself who is trapped by Gu Liushang. She also wants Gu Liushang to pave the way for her and Xiao Yuesheng. It's really outrageous. .
Thinking of this, Mu Yichang subconsciously looked over to Gu Liushang.
When she met the man's gaze, she realized that Gu Liushang was looking at her with a strange look.
Mu Yichang opened her mouth and wanted to ask him what he was thinking, but the man immediately looked away.
For a moment, Mu Yichang was a little panicked. She suddenly realized that maybe having a chance to get along with Xiao Shuyu was not a good thing.
After all, Gu Liushang liked Xiao Shuyu so much in his previous life, and there was no telling when he would fall in love with her again. By then...
Mu Yichang frowned and even pursed her lips.
If even Ah Zhan likes Xiao Shuyu, how should she deal with it?
"Junior sister Mu, what are you thinking about?" Xiao Yuesheng suddenly spoke up, interrupting all Mu Yichang's thoughts.
She came back to her senses, smiled gently at Xiao Yuesheng, and said, "It's nothing, I was just thinking..."
Mu Yichang's eyes followed Xiao Yuesheng's shoulders to Xiao Shuyu behind him.
Soon, Xiao Yuesheng noticed her gaze, and his heart tightened. Just when he was about to explain, he heard Mu Yichang say calmly: "I was just thinking that we should leave early!"
This made Xiao Yuesheng, who was about to speak, swallow the explanation.
Xiao Yuesheng originally prepared a carriage, but Mu Yichang was worried that Gu Liushang and Xiao Shuyu would fall in love over time, so she simply asked someone to prepare another carriage.
The two carriages drove side by side and headed down the mountain.
Gu Liushang hesitated again and again, but couldn't help but ask: "Master, why don't you ride in a carriage with Uncle Xiao?"
Mu Yichang looked away from the scene passing by outside the window and stared at Gu Liushang for a while with an indescribable look, which made the man's back stiffen.
"Why does Master look at me like this?" Gu Liushang asked uncomfortably.
Mu Yichang then softened her gaze and said, "You really want to ride with them?"
This was not an answer, which made Gu Liushang a little unhappy, so he said dullly, "It's more lively when we are together, what don't you want to do?"
Mu Yichang's eyes darkened and she said no more.
Gu Liushang wanted to ask more, but he saw Mu Yichang raised her hand, closed her eyes, and said, "I'm a little tired. I'll close my eyes to rest my mind until you wake me up."
This sentence choked back everything Gu Liuzhang wanted to say.
He also turned away sullenly.
A spell was cast on the carriage, which traveled thousands of miles a day and arrived at Donglin Mountain before sunset.
Gu Liushang didn't call Mu Yichang, she opened her eyes herself.
I don't know if it was because he didn't call her, but Mu Yichang didn't say a word to him when they got out of the car.
This made Gu Liushang's already unhappy mood even worse. When he met Xiao Yuesheng, he couldn't suppress the desire to get rid of him in his eyes.
Xiao Yuesheng faintly felt murderous intent, but when he turned around and looked over, everything was as usual.
Donglin Mountain was originally a paradise. Although the spiritual energy of this place was not lush and it was not a blessed place for cultivation, it allowed mortals to live and work in peace and contentment here.
Therefore, this was the first time that Mu Yichang heard about a disaster in Donglin Mountain.
This place is not a place where evil spirits can be raised, nor is it a place where evil spirits like to live.
Mu Yichang couldn't understand, how could a rat infestation occur in such a place?
Today, this piece of mountain skin has become an empty mountain.
Originally, the residents on the mountainside and at the foot of the mountain had already fled elsewhere.
This is already the most peripheral area within the jurisdiction of Shuanghua Gate. It took a long time for the news to reach Shuanghua Gate, so that by the time Bai Qingzhu took measures, the villagers had already fled far away.
In order to give those suffering people a place to live, Bai Qingzhu had ordered people to go down the mountain in advance and set up temporary shacks for the displaced people in several adjacent villages.
Mu Yichang and Xiao Yuesheng looked around at the foot of the mountain, and then went to the neighboring village first.
It is not appropriate to alert the enemy on this matter, the situation needs to be investigated first.
The four of them arrived at the neighboring village just as the sun was setting, and many farmers were returning from the fields.
Because the four of them were dressed differently, the farmers immediately knew their identities, so they gathered around to inquire.
"Are these immortals from Shuanghua Sect?"
"Are you here to help us deal with the rat problem?"
"The immortals need to take action quickly. If this continues, our village will also suffer."
Everyone was talking to each other, and for a while they were noisy and a little noisy.
In a panic, some rough man accidentally bumped into Xiao Shuyu, and the woman immediately knocked the man away several feet with a palm.
The man's wife immediately shouted and rushed over. When she saw the man's blood, she immediately started wailing.
Xiao Yuesheng's face immediately darkened, and he said angrily: "Evil disciple, kneel down!"
Xiao Shuyu was startled and argued: "He was the one who bumped into me just now. Master, you see, my clothes were stained by him."
These words were like a thunder exploding in Mu Yichang's mind.
She panicked and remembered that the woman in the Demon Palace was the same way in her previous life.
Just because the palace servant sent by Gu Liushang to serve her accidentally touched the hem of Xiao Shuyu's clothes, the woman beat the palace servant to death.
Although Mu Yichang had always regarded the palace man as Gu Liushang's lackey, he was responsible for taking care of her and guarding her.
But when Mu Yichang saw the palace man lying dead on the ground, her heart couldn't help but tighten.
"You! How can you treat human life like a piece of grass?" Mu Yichang scolded her angrily.
But Xiao Shuyu threw her head back and laughed, as if Mu Yichang had said something ridiculous.
Amidst her laughter, Mu Yichang frowned.
Mu Yichang had never been so angry before, but now her entire cultivation had been ruined by Gu Liushang, and there was nothing she could do against the arrogant woman in front of her.
She always remembered what Xiao Shuyu said to her: "So what if I regard human life as nothing? As long as your good apprentice indulges me, even if I want your life, he will not do anything to me."
When her thoughts drifted back, Xiao Shuyu was already kneeling on the ground, reluctantly apologizing to the injured man.
