The three of them immediately sped away in the direction of the mass grave. When the black mountain peak broke through the clouds, Wei Wuxian's heart became more and more tense.
In the distance, the howling of ferocious corpses could be heard from the black mountain forest, and it was not just one or two, but a group of corpses. Lan Wangji performed a trick, and Bichen instantly gained a few points, but was still extremely stable.
As soon as they landed on the ground, the two saw a black shadow jumping out of the forest, screaming and rushing towards a person, Bichen cut him in half with a sword. The man on the ground looked pale, and when he saw Wei Wuxian, he hurriedly shouted, "Young Master Wei!"
Wei Wuxian waved his hand and a spell flew out, saying, "Fourth uncle, what's going on?!"
The fourth uncle said: "The Demon-Conquering Cave...all the vicious corpses in the Demon-Conquering Cave have escaped!"
Wei Wuxian said, "Didn't I set up a restriction? Who moved it?!"
Fourth Uncle said: "No one moved! Yes...yes..."
At this time, there was a clear shout from the front, and a female voice said: "A Ning!"
In the dark forest, a dozen Wen family monks were confronting a figure. That figure was the extremely ferocious Wen Ning with the whites of his eyes rolled back. Not much of the talismans that had been densely attached to his body were left. There were still two murderous corpses dragged in his hands, which had been torn to pieces by his bare hands, dripping with black blood. , there were almost only two skeletons left, and Wen Ning was still beating them angrily, as if he would not stop until they were broken to bones and ashes. The one holding the sword at the front was Wen Qing. Wei Wuxian said, "Didn't I tell you not to touch the talisman on him?!"
She was so warm that she couldn't even be surprised why Lan Wangji appeared here. She said: "No one touched it! No one entered the Demon-Conquering Cave at all! He tore it off by himself when he was crazy. Not only did he tear it off himself, He also destroyed the restrictions on the blood pool and the Demon-Conquering Cave, and all the vicious corpses crawled out of the blood pool. Wei Wuxian, hurry up and save your mother-in-law and the others, they can't stand it anymore!!!"
Just as he was talking, there was a strange hissing sound from high up. When several people looked up, they saw several vicious corpses climbing up the treetops. They were coiled on the top of the tree like snakes, baring their teeth downwards, and the unknown mucus of evil people was flowing out from between their teeth. . Wen Ning also looked up and saw them. He threw away the broken limbs in his hands and jumped up, directly to the treetops!
This tree is at least five feet high. It can reach such a height in one leap. Its explosive power is astonishing. After Wen Ning climbed up the tree, he tore those murderous corpses with two palms, causing their limbs to fly everywhere, and a rain of blood fell in the air. But he was not satisfied yet and fell to the other side. Wei Wuxian pulled out Chen Qing and said: "Lan...!" He originally wanted to ask Lan Wangji to save the others first, but he came to deal with Wen Ning. When he turned around and saw that the person was gone, he was worried, but he heard that Lang Lang The sound of the piano was so loud that it caused crows to fly wildly in the dark woods. It turns out that Lan Wangji had already gone ahead without him having to ask. Wei Wuxian felt relieved, and when Chen Qing came to his lips, he let out a long cry. Wen Ning's figure froze slightly as he landed on the ground. Wei Wuxian took the opportunity and said, "Wen Ning! Do you recognize me?"
There was no sound from the piano over there after three blasts, indicating that Lan Wangji had immobilized all the out-of-control vicious corpses within three blasts. Wen Ning lowered his body slightly and let out a low neigh from the bottom of his throat, looking like a wild beast that was alert and ready to attack. Wei Wuxian was about to blow again when he suddenly realized that Wen Yuan was still hugging his legs tightly, not daring to let out any anger. She had actually forgotten about him just now!
He quickly picked up Wen Yuan, threw it towards Wen Qing, and said, "Take him away!"
At this moment, Wen Ning suddenly pounced forward.
As if a huge boulder was crushing him, Wei Wuxian was knocked backwards and fell heavily against a tree. His throat felt hot and he cursed. Lan Wangji saw this scene as soon as he turned back, his expression changed drastically, and he was seized in front of him. Wen Qing just pushed Wen Yuan into someone else's arms. She wanted to check Wei Wuxian's injuries, but he was there before him, and she was startled. Lan Wangji almost hugged Wei Wuxian in his arms, holding his hand and directly transferring his spiritual power. Wenqing hurriedly said: "Let him go first, no need! Let me come! I am Wenqing!"
Qishan Wenqing is a first-class doctor. Lan Wangji stopped sending spiritual power and asked Wenqing to check Wei Wuxian's condition, but he still didn't let go of his hand. Wei Wuxian pushed him away and said, "Don't let him pass!"
After Wen Ning wounded him, he walked down the mountain with his arms hanging down. That was where the other Wen family monks hid the murderous corpses. Wen Qing shouted down: "Run! Run quickly! He is going towards you!"
Wei Wuxian broke away from Lan Wangji and chased after him while holding his breath. Lan Wangji caught up again and said, "Where is your sword?"
Wei Wuxian waved out twelve talismans and said, "I don't know where they were thrown!"
Twelve yellow talismans lined up in the air and burned, hitting Wen Ning like a chain of fire, locking him instantly. Lan Wangji played the piano with his backhand, and Wen Ning's steps seemed to be caught by invisible threads. He settled down and continued to move forward with some difficulty. Wei Wuxian brought Chen Qing to his lips. He had just received a blow and blew out some blood foam. He frowned, but he still endured the blood and pain in his chest and blew it down without trembling.
With the combined efforts of the two, Wen Ning knelt down and looked up to the sky, roaring, causing the leaves in the dark forest to tremble. Wei Wuxian finally couldn't bear it anymore and choked out a mouthful of blood.
Wangji's piano suddenly roared loudly, and Wen Ning held his head and roared, curling up on the ground. Wenqing said sadly: "Aning! Aning!" She was about to run forward, but Wei Wuxian said: "Be careful!"
Wen Qing saw that her younger brother was disturbed by the sound of the piano and was in great pain. Although she knew that he might be in danger if he didn't act harshly in this state, she still couldn't help but feel sorry for Wen Ning and said: "Hanguang-Jun, please be merciful!"
Wei Wuxian said: "Lan Zhan! You are too young..."
"…Mr.…son…"
Wei Wuxian was suddenly startled and said, "Wait?"
He said: "Lan Zhan, please stop first?!"
This voice came from Wen Ning.
Lan Wangji pressed his five fingers on the strings to stop the trembling of the lingering sound. Wei Wuxian said, "Wen Ning?!"
Wen Ning raised his head with difficulty.
What was in his eyes was no longer the ferocious whiteness, but...a pair of black pupils!
Wen Ning opened his mouth and continued: "...Young Master Wei...?"
It seemed as if I was squeezing out each word one by one, as if I was about to bite my tongue. However, they were indeed human words, not meaningless rants.
Wenqing was stunned.
After a while, she suddenly yelled, rolled over and jumped on her, shouting: "Aning!"
The two of them fell to the ground together due to this attack. Wen Ning said: "Sister...sister..."
She hugged her brother tenderly, cried and laughed, buried her in his chest, and said, "It's me! It's my sister, it's my sister! Ah Ning!"
She kept calling Wen Ning's name. The other monks seemed to want to rush together, but they didn't dare. They just yelled and laughed at each other and hugged each other. The fourth uncle shouted wildly and ran down the mountain, saying : "It's okay! It's done! It's done! Aning is awake!..."
Wei Wuxian walked over, squatted next to Wen Ning, and asked, "How do you feel now?"
Wen Ning lay on his back, his limbs and neck still a little stiff, and said: "I...I..."
He was stuck for a long time and finally said: "...I really want to cry, but I can't cry. What's going on..."
After a moment of silence, Wei Wuxian patted his shoulder and said, "Remember, you are already dead."
After confirming that Wen Ning was really awake, Wei Wuxian let out a long sigh of relief.
He succeeded.
Back then, because of his impulsive anger, Wen Ning was turned into a low-level vicious corpse. Although Wen Ning was asked to personally identify and tear into pieces the supervisors who tortured and killed him, after Wen Qing regained consciousness, facing this person who did not recognize her at all, she would only growl and bite like a mad dog, wanting to eat flesh and drink blood. The younger brother was in even more pain.
After calming down, Wei Wuxian promised her that he had a way to restore Wen Ning's sanity. But who knows, he just boasted about Haikou and wanted to reassure Wenqing first. In fact, he didn't have any confidence at all, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet.
After several days of racking his brains and forgetting to eat and sleep, he actually fulfilled his promise.
Holding Wen Ning's pale face tenderly, tears fell down heavily. In the end, she couldn't help but burst into tears just like the night she saw Wen Ning's body.
Wen Ning's hands and feet stiffly stroked her back, and more and more Wen family members came up from the mountain. They either rushed over to join in the crying process, or looked at Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji with awe and gratitude. .
Wei Wuxian knew that their siblings must have a lot to say, and Wen Qing would definitely not want outsiders to see her crying, so he said, "Lan Zhan."
Lan Wangji looked at him, and Wei Wuxian said, "You're already here, do you want to come in and sit down?"
The two of them walked to a windy cave entrance on the mountain.
Lan Wangji asked: "Devil-Conquering Cave?"
Wei WuXian said, "That's right. I chose this name. How about it?"
Lan Wangji remained silent.
Wei WuXian said, "I know, you must be saying in your heart, 'Not very good.' After word spread, I also heard some people talking about it, saying that I am a ghost cultivator and a big devil myself. How can I be so embarrassed?" Name your lair the Demon-Conquering Cave?"
Lan Wangji was noncommittal. The two of them had already entered the cave, and Wei Wuxian's laughter echoed in the empty cave: "But in fact, they are all wrong. The name I chose is not what they understood at all."
Lan Wangji said, "What's the explanation?"
Wei WuXian said, "Simple. Just because I often sleep here. There is a cave where the demon lies on the ground and sleeps. Isn't it the Demon Subduing Cave?"
Lan Wangji: "…"
The two entered the main cave, and Lan Wangji said, "Where's the blood pool?"
Wei Wuxian pointed to a pool of quiet water in the cave and said, "This is the blood pool."
The light in the cave was dim, and the pool of water was either black or red. It exuded a smell of blood that was neither light nor heavy.
Originally, a circle of restricted wire was pulled up by the pool, but it was destroyed by Wen Ning. Wei Wuxian pulled it up again and knotted it to strengthen it.
Lan Wangji said: "There is a lot of Yin energy."
Wei WuXian said: "Yes, the Yin energy is very strong and is suitable for raising evil spirits. This is where I use to 'raise' some unfinished ferocious corpses. Guess how calm they are under there?"
He smiled and said: "To be honest, I don't know how many there are. However, the water in the pool smells more and more like blood."
I don't know if it was because of the light, but Wei Wuxian's face was particularly pale, and his smile looked vaguely forbidding. Lan Wangji looked at him quietly and said, "Wei Ying."
Wei Wuxian said, "What?"
Lan Wangji said: "Are you serious? Can you control it?"
Wei Wuxian said: "Control what? You mean Wen Ning? Of course there is no problem. Look, he has already regained his consciousness." Wei Wuxian said proudly: "An unprecedented vicious corpse."
Lan Wangji said: "What should we do if he gets mad again?"
Wei WuXian said, "I already have experience in dealing with his madness. He is under my control. As long as I have no problems, he will not have any problems."
After a moment of silence, Lan Wangji said, "Then what if something goes wrong with you."
Wei Wuxian said, "No."
Lan Wangji said: "How to guarantee it."
Wei Wuxian said firmly: "No. It can't be."
Lan Wangji said, "Do you plan to stay like this from now on?"
Wei WuXian said, "What's wrong with this being like this all the time? Do you look down on my territory? This mountain is bigger than your Yun Shenzhen, and the food is much better than yours."
"Wei Ying." Lan Wangji said, "You understand what I mean."
"..."
Wei Wuxian said helplessly: "Lan Zhan, you are... really amazing. I had already changed the subject, but you pulled me back."
At this time, his throat felt slightly itchy, and there was a sudden surge of blood, and Wei Wuxian coughed twice. Seeing Lan Wangji coming to hold his hand, Wei Wuxian dodged and said, "What are you doing?"
Lan Wangji said: "Your injury."
Wei WuXian said, "No need. What are you wasting your spiritual energy on with this minor injury? Just sit down for a while and it will heal on its own."
Lan Wangji stopped talking nonsense to him and went to grab his hand again. At this moment, two people walked out of the cave. The tender voice said: "Just sit down for a while and get better? Do you think I am dead?"
Behind her was Wen Ning, who was holding a tea tray. Wen Ning's skin was completely white, and unwiped spells could still be seen on his neck. And the one holding Wen Ning's calf was Wen Yuan. As soon as he came in, he rushed to Wei Wuxian's side and hung onto his lap. Seeing Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji looking at him at the same time, Wen Ning moved the corners of his mouth, as if he wanted to smile. However, the muscles on his face were stiff and he couldn't hold them, so he could only greet him: "Young Master Wei... Mr. Lan ."
Wei Wuxian raised one leg, lifted Wen Yuan into the air, shook it, and said, "Why did you come in? Are you done crying so quickly?"
Wenqing said fiercely: "Look at how I will make you cry later!" Although he said this, there was still a thick nasal sound in his voice. Wei Wuxian said: "What a joke, how could you make me...ah!!!"
Wen Qing walked over and slapped him on the back, causing Wei Wuxian to draw a mouthful of blood. She looked in disbelief and said, "You... you are so poisonous..."
As he spoke, he closed his eyes and fainted. Lan Wangji's face turned pale, he caught him and said, "Wei Ying!"
But Wenqing showed three shining silver needles and shouted: "I have something more poisonous that you haven't seen. Get up!"
Wei Wuxian stood up from Lan Wangji's arms as if nothing had happened, wiped the blood from his mouth, and said, "Forget it, I don't want to see the most poisonous woman's heart."
It turns out that the warm palm just now was just a shot of the stagnant blood stuck in his chest. How could the doctor who was famous in hundreds of schools and the best in Qishan really be ignorant of the importance of his actions? Seeing that it was another prank, Lan Wangji waved his sleeves and turned away, as if he no longer wanted to deal with such a boring person. Wen Ning had just woken up and his reaction was slow. He was stunned when he saw Wei Wuxian vomiting blood. Now he remembered that Wei Wuxian was injured when he was unconscious and said guiltily: "Master, I'm sorry..." "
Wei Wuxian waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, with just that punch of yours, do you really think you will do anything to me?"
Looking at Lan Wangji's expression over there with tender black eyes, he said, "Hanguang-Jun, would you please sit down?"
Wei Wuxian suddenly realized, thinking that no wonder he felt as if he had forgotten something. It turned out that Lan Zhan hadn't sat down for so long after he came in. But there were only a few stone beds where people could sit in the cave, and each one was covered with strange things, including flags, knife boxes, blood-stained bandages, and uneaten fruit. It was horrible to look at.
Wei WuXian said, "But there's no place to sit here."
"Of course there is," she said warmly and indifferently. After saying that, she ruthlessly swept everything on the stone bed to the ground and said, "Look, there it is."
Wei Wuxian was shocked: "Hey!"
Wen Ning also said: "Yes, Mr. Lan, sit down and drink tea..." As he said that, he moved the tray in his hand towards Lan Wangji. There were two teacups on the tray, which were washed very clean. However, Wei Wuxian took a look at it and said, "It's so shabby. You can't even give the guests water to drink, and they don't even have tea leaves!"
Wen Ning said: "I just asked if there was any tea left, and my fourth uncle said that there was no tea left..."
Wei Wuxian picked up a glass of water, took a sip, and said, "This is so inappropriate. Next time guests come, you should be prepared." After saying this, he realized that it was funny. Where did the next time come from, and where did the guests come from?
Wenqing said: "You have the nerve to say that you have bought some messy things several times when I asked you to go down the mountain to purchase. Where are the radish seeds I asked you to buy today?"
Wei Wuxian said, "Where did I buy all these messy things! I just bought fun things for A Yuan, right A Yuan."
Wen Yuan, however, was uncooperative and said: "Brother Xian lied. This brother bought it for me."
Wei Wuxian was furious: "This is unreasonable!"
There was a lot of laughter in the Demon-Conquering Cave, but unexpectedly, Lan Wangji suddenly turned around and walked out of the cave without saying a word.
Both Wen Qing and Wen Ning were startled. Wei Wuxian asked, "Lan Zhan?"
Lan Wangji paused, and there was no emotion in his voice as he said, "It's time for me to go back."
He left the Demon-Conquering Cave without looking back. Wen Ning became panicked again, as if he thought it was his fault. Wen Yuan said anxiously: "Brother!"
He dragged his short legs and tried to catch up, but Wei Wuxian grabbed him and put him under his arm, saying, "Wait for me here."
He took three steps and two steps at a time to catch up with Lan Wangji and said, "Are you leaving? I'll see you off."
Lan Wangji remained silent.
Wen Yuan was under Wei Wuxian's arm, looking up at him and saying, "Brother, won't you eat with us?"
Lan Wangji glanced at him, stretched out a hand, and slowly touched his head.
Wen Yuan thought he was going to stay, so her face became happy and she whispered: "A Yuan overheard a secret. They said that there are a lot of delicious food today..."
Wei WuXian said, "This brother has food at home, so I won't keep it."
Wen Yuan said "Oh", her disappointment was palpable, she lowered her head and stopped talking.
The two of them walked quietly with a child between them, and when they reached the foot of the mass grave, they stopped in unison and did not speak.
After a while, Wei Wuxian said, "Lan Zhan, you asked me just now, do you plan to keep doing this? In fact, I also want to ask someone. If not, what else can I do."
He said: "Abandon the ghost path and not practice it? What should the people on this mountain do?
"Give them up? I can't do it. I believe if it were you, you wouldn't be able to do it either."
He said: "Can anyone give me a good Yangguan Road? A road that can protect the people I want to protect even if I don't have to practice the Ghost Road."
Lan Wangji looked at him without answering, but they both knew the answer in their hearts.
There is no such way.
No solution.
Wei Wuxian said slowly: "Thank you for accompanying me today, and thank you for telling me the news about my senior sister's marriage. However, right and wrong are up to you, and others are up to you to blame or to blame, regardless of gains or losses. I know what to do, and I also believe it. I can control myself."
As if he had anticipated his attitude, Lan Wangji tilted his head slightly and closed his eyes.
Say goodbye to this.
On the way back to the mountain, Wei Wuxian realized that he had agreed to treat Lan Wangji to dinner, but in the end the two of them parted ways in a less than relaxing atmosphere. Naturally, he forgot to pay the bill.
Wei Wuxian thought to himself: "Hey, Lan Zhan is so rich anyway, it's okay to ask him to pay the bill again. Speaking of which, he should still have money, so he won't spend it all on buying some children's toys. The worst is possible. Come back to me and invite him again... Where will the next time come from?"
Think about it, almost every time he and Lan Wangji met, they would end up unhappy for one reason or another. Maybe they are really not suitable for being friends.
However, there will be no chance to try it in the future.
Wen Yuan held him with her left hand and a small wooden sword in her right hand. She put the grass-woven butterfly on her head and said, "Brother Xian, will my rich brother come again?"
Wei Wuxian scolded, "What is a rich brother?"
Wen Yuan said seriously: "A rich brother is a rich brother."
Wei Wuxian said, "What about me?"
Sure enough, Wen Yuan said: "You are brother Xian. Brother who has no money."
Wei Wuxian glanced at him, suddenly snatched the butterfly away, and said, "Why, you like him just because he's rich?"
Wen Yuan stood on tiptoe to grab it and said anxiously: "Give it back to me... That was bought for me!"
Wei Wuxian was also a boring person. He was very excited to play tricks with a child. He put the butterfly on his head and said, "I won't return it. You still call him daddy, and what do you call me? You've only called me brother." , he is obviously a generation shorter than him!"
Wen Yuan jumped: "I didn't call him Dad!"
Wei Wuxian said, "I heard you shouting. I don't care, I want to be a higher class than my brother and father. What should you call me?"
Wen Yuan said aggrievedly: "But... But A Yuan... I don't want to call you A Niang... It's so strange..."
Wei Wuxian snarled again: "Who asked you to call me A Niang? You don't even know that the person who is more senior than my brother and father is my father? You really like him so much, you should have told me earlier, I would have told you earlier. Let him take you away. Although his family is rich, they are scary. Take you back and lock you in the house, copying books from morning to night, don't you be afraid!"
Wen Yuan quickly shook her head and whispered: "...I won't leave...I still want grandma."
Wei Wuxian pressed forward step by step: "You want grandma, not me?"
Wen Yuan flattered: "Yes. I also want to envy my brother." He clapped his fingers and counted them one by one: "I also want a rich brother, sister Aqing, brother Ning, fourth uncle, sixth uncle..."
Wei Wuxian threw the butterfly on top of his head again and said, "That's enough, that's enough. I'm drowning in the crowd."
Wen Yuan quickly put the grass-woven butterfly into her pocket, fearing that he would snatch it away again, and asked, "Will the rich brother come again?"
Wei Wuxian kept smiling.
After a while, he said: "I probably won't come again."
Wen Yuan said disappointedly: "Why?"
Wei WuXian said, "No reason. Everyone in this world has their own things to do and their own path to take. You are busy enough at home, how can you always hang around others when you have time?"
After all, we are not fellow travelers.
Wen Yuan said "Oh" in a half-understanding manner, looking disappointed.
Wei Wuxian picked him up, held him under his arm, and hummed: "...No matter how busy Yangguan Road is, I still want to walk to that single-plank bridge to the dark... Go! Go!... Walk to the dark?"
Humming to the word "black", he suddenly realized that it was not black at all.
In the past, he walked to the top of the dark mountain, but tonight, when he came back, it was very different.
The area around those small shacks had been swept clean, and a lot of weeds had been pulled out. There are several red lanterns hanging in the woods nearby. The lanterns are all handmade and hung on the branches. Although they are round and simple, they emit warm light and illuminate the dark mountain forest.
Normally at this time, the fifty or so people had already finished their meal and were sleeping in their own shabby wooden houses with lights off, but today they were all gathered in the widest shed. This shed is a roof supported by eight wooden piles, which can accommodate everyone. The small room next to it is the "kitchen", so it is used as a dining hall.
Wei Wuxian felt strange, so he walked over with Wen Yuan on his side and said, "Why are you here today? Aren't you sleeping? There are so many lights so bright."
Wenqing came out of the kitchen on the side, holding a plate, and said: "I'll hang it for you old man. I'll make a few more to hang on the mountain road tomorrow. I've been rushing around in the dark all day and don't walk well. I might slip and fall one day." Broken bones."
Wei WuXian said, "If I break my bones, I'll still have you."
Wenqing said: "I don't want to work more and I don't have any money. If you break it, don't blame me for breaking your bones when I picked it up."
Wei Wuxian shuddered and hurried away. When he walked into the shed, everyone made room for him. There were three tables, each with seven or eight plates filled with steaming hot dishes. Wei WuXian asked, "Why, you haven't eaten yet?"
"Nothing. I'm waiting for you," she said tenderly.
Wei WuXian said, "What are you waiting for me to do? I ate outside."
As soon as he finished speaking, he discovered something bad. Sure enough, Wenqing placed the plate heavily on the table, and all the red peppers on the dish jumped. She said angrily: "No wonder you didn't buy anything and ate all the food at the restaurant, right? I only had so little money in total, and I gave it all to you. You spent it so freely!"
Wei Wuxian said, "No! I didn't..." At this time, Granny Wen came out of the kitchen tremblingly, holding a cane in one hand and a plate in the other. Wen Yuan twisted a few times, twisted it off from the bottom of his elbow, ran over and said, "Grandma!"
Wenqing turned to help, complaining: "I told you not to take it, just sit down without help. There is a lot of fireworks inside. Your legs are not good and your hands are unstable. If you fall, you won't have a few plates. Take a trip and transport these It's not easy to go up the mountain with porcelain…"
The other Wen family monks set their chopsticks and poured the tea, freeing up the chairman for him. In this way, Wei Wuxian found it difficult to accept it calmly.
In the past, it was not that he could not see that these people in the Wen family were actually a little afraid of him.
These people have all heard of his ferocious reputation during the Sun-Shooting Campaign, heard of his widely circulated brutal and evil means of venting his anger, and have seen with their own eyes the way he killed people by leaving corpses behind. In the first period of time, Mrs. Wen trembled when she saw his legs. Wen Yuan also hid behind her. It took several days before she dared to approach him slowly.
However, at this moment, more than fifty pairs of eyes were looking at him. Although there was still an element of fear in these eyes, it was a fear of awe, a little flattering, and a little cautious. What's more, there is the same gratitude and kindness in the eyes of the Wen siblings.
"Thank you for your hard work these days," she whispered tenderly.
Wei Wuxian said, "You... suddenly spoke to me so nicely, am I a little shocked?"
The tender knuckles of the five fingers seemed to click, and Wei Wuxian immediately shut up.
But the Wen in a low voice.
"...Actually, they have always wanted to have a meal with you and say thank you. But if you are either jumping up and down and running around, or you are locked in the Demon-Conquering Cave for days and nights without being disturbed, they are afraid I delayed your work and made you upset. I thought you didn't like to deal with people and didn't want to pay attention to them, so I was embarrassed to talk to you. Today Aning woke up, and the fourth uncle said that he would share a table with you no matter what...even if You've eaten so much outside today, why don't you sit down. It's okay if you don't eat, just sit and chat and have a drink."
Wei Wuxian was startled and his eyes lit up: "Drink? Is there wine on this mountain?"
Several older Wen family members have been looking here with a little worry. After hearing this, one of them immediately said: "Yes, yes. There is wine, there is wine." He picked up a few sealed bottles on the table. She handed it to him and said, "Fruit wine. Brewed from wild fruits picked from the mountains, it's very fragrant!"
Wen Ning squatted at the table and said, "Fourth uncle also likes to drink. He knows how to brew it himself. He brewed it specially. He tried it for many days."
Because he spoke word by word and spoke very slowly, he no longer stuttered. The fourth uncle smiled sheepishly and stared at Wei Wuxian, a little nervous. Wei WuXian said, "Really? Then you must try it!"
He sat at the table, and his fourth uncle quickly opened the bottle and handed it to him with both hands. Wei Wuxian smelled it and smiled, "It really smells good!"
The others also sat down together with him. After hearing his praise, they all seemed to have received the great praise, beaming with joy and using their chopsticks one after another.
For the first time, Wei Wuxian didn't taste the taste of wine when he drank.
He was thinking: "Does the road end in darkness...?"
It's not very dark either.
Suddenly, my whole body felt refreshed.
Fifty people sat at three tables crowded together, with chopsticks stretching and retracting. Wen Yuan sat on her grandma's lap, showing her her new baby and beating her with a small wooden knife and a small wooden sword. The old man couldn't stop laughing. The tooth's mouth is open. Wei Wuxian and his fourth uncle had a lively exchange of wines they had drank, and finally agreed that Gusu's famous wine, Emperor Xiao, was the undisputed masterpiece. Wenqing went around in circles, pouring cider for several elders and their subordinates, but it was empty after only two rounds. Wei Wuxian said, "Why is it gone? I haven't drunk much yet??"
"There are still a few bottles left, keep them and drink them slowly," she said tenderly. "Don't drink them today."
Wei WuXian said, "How can this be done? As the saying goes, it's better to have a glass of wine than to have a posthumous reputation. Don't say it anymore, thank you very much."
Today was special, so he was filled with warmth and said, "I won't do it next time. I really think you need to stop drinking. You drink too much."
Wei WuXian said: "This is not the Yunshen Ignorant Place, so why don't you quit drinking!"
Speaking of Yun Shen's unknown place, he glanced at Wei Wuxian tenderly and said casually, "I forgot to ask you, you have never brought anyone to a mass grave before. What's going on today?"
Wei WuXian said, "You mean Lan Zhan? I met him on the road."
Wenqing said: "Meet you? How did you meet it? Is it an accidental encounter again?"
Wei Wuxian said, "Yes."
"What a coincidence. I remember you met by chance in Yunmeng before," said tenderly.
Wei WuXian said, "It's not surprising, both Yunmeng and Yiling are often visited by monks from other families."
"I heard you call him by his name just now," she said tenderly. "You were very brave."
Wei WuXian said, "He also called me by my name directly. It's nothing. I was used to calling me by my name when I was young, so we don't care."
"Oh? Isn't the relationship between you two very bad? It sounds like you are incompatible with each other, and you will fight when you meet. "
Wei WuXian said, "You've heard people's lies. Our relationship wasn't that good in the past. We did get angry a few times during the Sun Shooting Campaign, but the rumors weren't that bad afterwards. It's not bad."
Warmth no longer speaks.
The dishes on the plate were quickly swept away. Someone knocked on the bowl and shouted: "Aning, go stir-fry some more vegetables!"
"Fry more and get a basin to put it in!"
"Where are the basins for you to put vegetables in? They are all for washing your face!"
Wen Ning didn't need to eat. He stayed by the shed. Hearing the words, he said dullly: "Oh, okay."
Seeing the opportunity to show off his skills, Wei Wuxian hurriedly said, "Hold on. I'll come! I'll come, I'll come!"
Wenqing didn't believe it: "Can you still cook?"
Wei WuXian raised his eyebrows and said, "That's natural. I can go to the hall or the kitchen. It's up to me. Wait."
Everyone clapped their hands to express their expectation. However, when Wei Wuxian put the two plates on the table with an evil look on his face, he looked at them tenderly and said, "Get as far away from the kitchen as you can from now on."
Wei Wuxian defended, "You should eat it. You can't just look at the appearance. You'll know it tastes good after you eat it. That's the taste."
Warmth said: "Eat it! Didn't you see how Ayuan cried after eating it? It's a waste of ingredients. Don't even stretch out your chopsticks, don't give him this face!"
...
Within three days, almost everyone in the family knew a terrible news: Wei Wuxian, who defected from the Jiang family and established a new mountain in Yiling, had made the highest-level murderous corpse so far, which was fast and powerful. Infinite, fearless, ruthless, and with a sound mind, he is invincible in night hunting!
Everyone was terrified: there was no peace! Wei Wuxian will definitely refine this kind of ferocious corpse on a large scale in an attempt to establish a sect and compete with other sects for supremacy! And these many young blood will definitely be attracted by his opportunistic evil ways and defect to him one after another. The future of the orthodox Taoist schools will be worrying, and the future will be dark!
However, in fact, after the corpse refining was successful, the biggest benefit Wei Wuxian felt was that he now had a hard-working coolie to transport goods up the mountain. In the past, he could only transport one box of goods at most, but now, Wen Ning can haul a cart of goods by himself, plus Wei Wuxian, who is sitting on the cart with his legs crossed and doing nothing.
But no one believed this at all. After a few limelights in the night hunting, many people actually came here because of his reputation, hoping to join the "ancestor" and become his disciples. The deserted mountains and wild ridges that were originally deserted suddenly became crowded with people. None of the vicious corpses that Wei Wuxian set up to patrol at the foot of the mountain would attack. At most, they would just throw people away and roar with their teeth. No one was injured, and more and more people surrounded the mass graves. One time, Wei Wuxian saw a long flag from a distance that said "Supreme Evil Honored the Yiling Patriarch" and sprayed fruit wine all over the ground. He couldn't stand it anymore, so he went down the mountain and unceremoniously put the "Honor His Old Man" flag on the ground. All the offerings were accepted with joy, and from then on they entered and exited through another mountain road.
On this day, he was shopping in a city in Yiling with his coolies. Suddenly, a familiar figure flashed in the alley ahead. Wei Wuxian's eyes narrowed and he followed calmly. Following the figure, the two of them flashed into a small courtyard. As soon as you enter, the courtyard is closed. A cold voice came: "Get out."
Jiang Cheng stood behind them. He closed the door. This sentence was meant for Wen Ning.
Jiang Cheng was a very vengeful person, and his hatred for the Wen family of Qishan spread to all levels. In addition, during the treatment of Wen Qing and Wen Ning, he was in a coma and could not empathize with Wei Wuxian at all, so he was never polite to Wen Ning, and he was even more ruthless last time. When Wen Ning saw him, he immediately lowered his head and retreated.
There was a woman standing in the yard, wearing a gauze hat and a black cloak. Wei Wuxian's throat was lumpy and he said, "...Senior sister."
Hearing the footsteps, the woman turned around and took off the hat on her head, and also took off her cloak. Under the cloak, he was actually wearing a bright red wedding dress.
Jiang Yanli was wearing this dignified wedding dress, with bright pink and pink on her face, adding a bit of color. Wei Wuxian took two steps towards her and said, "Senior sister... what are you doing?"
Jiang Cheng asked, "What is this? Do you think I want to marry you?"
Wei Wuxian said, "Shut up."
Jiang Yanli opened her arms to show him, her face turned red, and she said, "Axian, I...are getting married soon. Come here and show it to you..."
Wei Wuxian's eyes grew hot.
He couldn't be there on the day of Jiang Yanli's ceremony, and he couldn't see his relatives in their wedding clothes. Therefore, Jiang Cheng and Jiang Yanli secretly came to Yiling, led him into the courtyard, and showed him what his sister would look like on the day of their wedding.
After a long while, Wei Wuxian smiled and said, "I know! I heard...
Jiang Cheng asked, "Who did you listen to?"
Wei WuXian said, "You take care of me."
Jiang Yanli said sheepishly, "But... I'm the only one here, so I can't see the groom."
Wei Wuxian made a disdainful gesture: "I don't want to see a groom."
He walked around Jiang Yanli twice and praised, "It looks good!"
Jiang Cheng said: "Sister, let me tell you. It's really beautiful."
Jiang Yanli has always been self-aware and said seriously: "It's useless what you said. What you said cannot be taken seriously."
Jiang Cheng said helplessly: "You don't believe me, and you don't believe him. Do you have to believe it if someone says it looks good?"
Hearing this, Jiang Yanli's face turned even redder, reaching the point where her white earlobes were so red that even the pink color of the rouge couldn't cover it up. She quickly changed the subject and said, "Axian... let's pick up a word."
Wei WuXian asked, "What word should I choose?"
Jiang Cheng said: "The name of my unborn nephew."
Before the ceremony was completed, I was thinking about choosing a name for my future nephew. Wei Wuxian, however, didn't notice the difference and was not polite at all. He thought about it and said, "Okay. The next generation of the Lanling Jin family is from the Ruzi generation. Let's call her Jin Rulan."
Jiang Yanli said: "Okay!"
Jiang Cheng said, "No, it sounds like Jin Rulan, the Lan of the Lan family. Descendants of the Lanling Jin family and the Yunmeng Jiang family, why should they be Rulan?"
Wei Wuxian said, "There's nothing wrong with the Lan family. Lan is a gentleman among flowers, and the Lan family is a gentleman among people. Good word." Jiang Cheng said, "That's not what you said before." Wei Wuxian said, "Yes. Let me take it, not let you take it. Why do you want to pick it?" Jiang Yanli said hurriedly: "Okay, you know that Acheng is like this. He gave me the suggestion to let you pick the word. Stop making trouble, I brought you soup, wait a minute."
She went into the room to get the jar, and Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng looked at each other. After a moment, Jiang Yanli came out and gave each of them a bowl, then went into the house, took out a third small bowl, walked outside the door, and said to Wen Ning, "Sorry, there are only small bowls. This is for you."
Wen Ning was originally standing guarding the door with his head lowered. Seeing this, he was flattered and stuttered again: "Ah... you still have my share?"
Jiang Cheng was dissatisfied: "Why do you still have him?"
Jiang Yanli said: "Anyway, I brought so much, so everyone who sees it will have a share."
Wen Ning said quietly: "Thank you, Miss Jiang... thank you."
He held the small bowl that was full for him and was embarrassed to say, thank you, but he couldn't eat. It would be a waste to give it to him. Dead people don't know how to eat. Jiang Yanli noticed his embarrassment, asked a few questions, and stood outside the door to chat with Wen Ning. Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng stood in the courtyard. Jiang Cheng raised the bowl and said, "Respect the ancestor of Yiling."
Hearing this title, Wei Wuxian thought again of the domineering long flag fluttering in the wind, and his mind was filled with the eight bright golden characters of "Supreme Evil Lord Yiling Ancestor" and said: "Close Mouth!"
After taking a sip, Jiang Cheng said, "How was the injury last time?"
Wei WuXian said, "It's already good."
Jiang Cheng said, "Yeah." After a pause, he added, "How many days will it take for you to feel better?"
Wei WuXian said, "It's been less than seven days. As I told you, there is warmth, so don't worry. But, you really fucking stabbed me."
Jiang Cheng ate a piece of lotus root and said, "You asked him to break my arm first. You hung up my arm for seven days and I hung it for more than a month."
Wei WuXian hesitantly said, "How can I not be cruel? It's my left hand anyway, so it won't prevent you from writing. A hundred days of broken muscles and bones, and three months of hanging is not too much."
Wen Ning's stuttering reply could be heard faintly outside the door. After a moment of silence, Jiang Cheng asked, "Is this what you're going to do from now on? Do you have any plans?"
Wei WuXian said, "Not yet. Those people don't dare to go down the mountain, and no one dares to mess with me when I go down the mountain. As long as I don't take the initiative to cause trouble."
"Not taking the initiative?" Jiang Cheng sneered, "Wei Wuxian, believe it or not, even if you don't cause trouble, trouble will still happen to you. There is often nothing you can do to save someone, but there are more than a thousand ways to harm someone. Method."
Wei Wuxian buried his head and said, "With one force, I will defeat ten groups. No matter how many methods they use, I will kill whoever comes."
Jiang Cheng said calmly: "You never listen to any of my opinions. One day you will know that what I say is right."
He drank the rest of the soup in one breath, stood up, and said, "Mighty. Amazing. As expected of the ancestor of Yiling."
Wei Wuxian spat out a piece of bone and said, "Are you done yet?"
Before leaving, Jiang Cheng said, "Don't send me away. It would be bad if others see you."
Wei Wuxian nodded. He understood that it was not easy for the Jiang siblings. If others see it, then all the drama they put on to show others will be in vain. He said: "Let's go first."
After exiting the alley, Wei Wuxian was still walking in front, and Wen Ning silently followed behind. Suddenly, Wei Wuxian turned around and said, "Why are you still holding that bowl of soup?"
"Ah?" Wen Ning said reluctantly, "Take it back... I can't drink it, but I can give it to others..."
"..." Wei Wuxian said, "It's up to you. Hold it carefully and don't spill it."
He looked back, knowing that he might not be able to see the people he was familiar with before for a long time.
But... isn't he going to meet familiar people now?
