Chapter 18

After the two finished speaking in unison, they looked at each other in sync. The emotions in their eyes flashed and then they quickly moved their eyes away and fell on Jiang Yunmiao.

Jiang Yunmiao was a little speechless for a moment as she watched everything develop in a strange direction.

If it wasn't for the wrong timing, she would have been a little disappointed with him!

"Hehe... Miaomiao is still popular!" Elder Ye touched his long beard and looked at the few people with a smile.

"Who does Miaomiao want to choose?" Originally, Elder Ye wanted Jiang Yunmiao to choose first.

He was just like Zixia Ziyu and the other maids. Because he had watched Jiang Yunmiao grow up since he was a child, in his eyes, Jiang Yunmiao had a layer of filter, and Jiang Yunmiao was cute no matter what he did.

In this selection, Jiang Yunmiao asked Xie Wuyu to choose first. In his eyes, Jiang Yunmiao was considerate and caring for the new little sister.

Now Xiao Chenbei and Wen Mufeng are competing to form a team with Jiang Yunmiao. Naturally, these two people have a keen eye and can see the good in Jiang Yunmiao. Two men are competing for one woman, and the one he got is Jiang Yunmiao, a good kid in his eyes. Of course, he is happy.

After going around in circles, the problem of selecting people is thrown back in front of him again.

Jiang Yunmiao's eyes fell on Xiao Chenbei: "Of course... I am..."

[Are the male protagonist and the villain crazy? Why are they suddenly picking on me? I am such a big white, tender, fragrant and soft little white flower heroine, and no one can see me here? ]

[Save me, save me, save me! How can I look more normal in choosing the villain and pairing the heroine with the male protagonist, a bastard? !】

Xiao Chenbei looked at Jiang Yunmiao's actions and relaxed a little unconsciously.

But Xie Wuyu suddenly spoke up and intervened: "If I can't be with Senior Sister Jiang, can I choose Senior Brother Xiao? I... I'm more familiar with Senior Brother Xiao..."

Xie Wuyu's voice was timid and weak, and he looked at Xiao Chenbei several times while speaking.

When he was sleepy and someone propped up his pillow, Jiang Yunmiao's face was filled with a bit of uncontrollable joy, but he still tried to suppress the corners of his mouth and tried to follow the plot.

"Since Junior Sister Xie has said so, I am not the kind of person who bullies others by taking advantage of my power. Why don't you ask Elder Ye to draw lots again?" Jiang Yunmiao raised his chin and answered in a very arrogant manner.

"That's fine!" Elder Ye nodded, and looked at Jiang Yunmiao with an even more loving gaze!

Look, she is worthy of being the daughter who grew up in their eyes on Xianliu Island. Even though she wanted to enter the trial with the male cultivator she admired, she was still afraid that others would have objections, so she turned to find the most fair way.

Alas, whoever has the daughter of a family will feel sorry for her, so he should think of a way when drawing the lots!

Elder Ye replaced the servant boy on the side, and ordered someone to bring the instrument for drawing lots again, and put the names of Jiang Yunmiao and the other four in again.

[System, am I done with my mission? 】While the preparations before the draw were still going on, Jiang Yunmiao began to call the system.

The current scene was something she had not expected. The plot had finally progressed to this point, and she had to fool the local dog first and pass this mission. If she were to team up with the male lead later, it would be difficult for her to make up stories.

The local dog system slowly condensed into the appearance of a yellow puppy, circling around Jiang Yunmiao.

[The system is evaluating...]

[System evaluation--]

Based on the scene when she completed the task before, the system would automatically determine the completion. When Jiang Yunmiao heard this voice, she knew that the task would not be judged as successful, and immediately interrupted the local dog system: [Look, are we now in the team mission of the Heart Demon Illusion Trial? 】

The Tugou system was forcibly interrupted, and was stunned for a moment, then nodded: [Yes.]

Jiang Yunmiao: [Then you see, when the male protagonist and the villain chose me at the same time, does it count as the Shura scene of the confrontation between the male protagonist and the villain?]

The Tugou system was puzzled: [It counts, but——]

Jiang Yunmiao struck while the iron was hot: [No buts, think about it again, didn’t the female protagonist also choose between the male protagonist and the villain?]

The Tugou system felt that its brain was a little confused: [It seems so...]

Jiang Yunmiao immediately hit the snake with a stick: [Then you see, the protagonist: the four of us, the scene: the team mission of the Heart Demon Illusion Trial, event one: the Shura scene that led to the confrontation between the male protagonist and the villain, event two: the female protagonist chose between the male protagonist and the villain, all of these meet my requirements! Doesn't that mean my mission is complete? ! 】

After the Earth Dog System's sturdy short legs circled around Jiang Yunmiao, it sat on Jiang Yunmiao's shoulders: [It seems like this...]

Then the Earth Dog System raised its front paws and fiddled with its short ears, and issued a notice: [Mainline Mission: In the Heart Demon Realm Trial Team Mission, promote the Shura Field Fame Scene, and let the heroine Xie Wuyu choose between Xiao Chenbei and Wen Mufeng, completed! 】

After hearing the Earth Dog System declare the mission successful, Jiang Yunmiao finally let go of his worries, and his face was much more relaxed.

During the time when Jiang Yunmiao was communicating with the Earth Dog System, the servant had already delivered the magic tool for drawing lots.

Elder Ye threw the sign with the four-person list in front of several people.

[According to the development of the plot, if we re-draw lots, I should be teamed up with the villain Wen Mufeng, right? ] Jiang Yunmiao thought wildly.

Under the halo of the male and female protagonists, even though they had many misunderstandings and the two of them didn't have mouths, they were still pushed together by the plot under various circumstances, so Jiang Yunmiao had no expectations for the result of the re-draw. She was determined to be a team with Wen Mufeng, and Xiao Chenbei and Xie Wuyu.

When Elder Ye threw the list, he deliberately left a trace of spiritual energy on the name tags of Jiang Yunmiao and Xiao Chenbei, so that when the results came out later, Jiang Yunmiao and Xiao Chenbei would be a team.

However, Xiao Chenbei didn't know why, but after listening to Jiang Yunmiao's relaxed state of mind that he would be in the same group with Wen Mufeng, he suddenly felt an unknown anger in his heart.

The magic weapon that Elder Ye used to draw lots was also owned by the Xiao family in Zhongzhou, and Xiao Chenbei was very familiar with it. So before the magic weapon spit out the list, Xiao Chenbei also quietly swapped the names of the men in the two assigned teams. After

the magic weapon spoke, the first team list was spread out in front of several people -

Wen Mufeng, Jiang Yunmiao.

Immediately afterwards, the second team list appeared.

Xiao Chenbei, Xie Wuyu.

Jiang Yunmiao looked at the final result with a clear look on her face. See, she knew that this book was based on the hero and heroine as the protagonists, so no matter what, in the end, the plot that needed to follow the main line must tie the hero and heroine together.

Xiao Chenbei frowned and looked at the list in disbelief.

Elder Ye naturally noticed Xiao Chenbei's actions, but the timing of Xiao Chenbei's action was really unexpected to him, resulting in the final result that could not be changed.

Elder Ye glanced at Xiao Chenbei with a hint of displeasure in his eyes. It seemed that the rumors among these disciples were not completely false. It was said that the Xiao family had never had a good face towards Miaomiao, and now they dared to do such a thing in front of him.

Elder Ye pondered for a moment, and had other ideas in his mind, but his expression did not show it: "Since the assignment has been made, the four of you should follow me and open the secret realm directly." Elder

Ye's eyes stayed on Wen Mufeng for a while, and then moved away without a sound.

The boy surnamed Wen was not inferior to the boy of the Xiao family in other aspects except that he was of a lower birth.

The four people followed Elder Ye on Xianliu Island for a long distance, bypassing several mountains, and finally came to the foot of a mountain. At

the foot of the mountain, there was a row of silver-shining halos lined up side by side. Elder Ye first led Xiao Chenbei and Xie Wuyu to one of the halos, pointed at the halos, and guided the two to input spiritual energy to activate the halos.

After the two people's spiritual energy circulated in the outer circle of the halos, a silver light flashed, and the figures of the two disappeared in front of the halos.

Elder Ye smiled and stroked his white beard, and led Jiang Yunmiao and Xie Wuyu to the entrance of another light circle and said, "Miaomiao, you grew up on Xianliu Island. The current illusion of the heart demon is no different from the mirages you played when you were a child."

Then, just like guiding Xiao Chenbei and Xie Wuyu, he asked Jiang Yunmiao and Wen Mufeng to guide the spiritual energy into the light circle.

At this time, Jiang Yunmiao did not know that in this illusion trial, all those who entered the illusion would lose their memories in this world, and thus follow their hearts and live in the illusion.

The illusion trial can only be escaped after the person who enters the trial can see through the nature of the illusion.

This time, they entered a love test. If the other person could not overcome the love test, they would be trapped in the illusion together.

Xiao Chenbei and Xie Wuyu did not know that due to Xiao Chenbei's little action, not only the plot was automatically restored to the original plot, but also the illusion they entered was secretly arranged by Elder Ye to be the most torturous of all the love and demon illusions. The

illusion that Jiang Yunmiao and Wen Mufeng entered this time was the simplest one among several illusions.

The two were brothers and sisters who had depended on each other since childhood, Jiang Da and Jiang Er from Huaihua Village.

The father of the two was an old scholar in Huaihua Village. After passing the examination, he took several imperial examinations but failed each time. The life of the farmer's family was not rich, so the old scholar returned to Huaihua Village. According to the arrangement of his family, he married and had children, and opened a private school in Huaihua Village to support his family.

Jiang Da was born in the third year after the old scholar got married. The year Jiang Da was born, Huaihua Village suffered a severe drought for three months, and all the crops in the fields died.

The next year, the old scholar's wife was pregnant again, but this time she did not give birth safely.

That day, Jiang Da had just learned to walk, and he crawled out of the yard at some point. The old scholar's wife did not find her son in the house, and was so scared that she hurried out to look for him. Who knew that when she went out, she was tripped by the door sill and fell, and she died directly.

The seven-month-old belly has a baby girl in it.

After the old scholar’s ​​wife died, he did not remarry, but raised Jiang Da with all his heart.

However, the people in the village were ignorant and could not bear to see others live well. After the old scholar’s ​​wife died, rumors began to spread that Jiang Da had a bad fate. When he was born, there was a severe drought in the fields. When he was just over one year old, he killed his mother and sister.

However, the old scholar was a scholar and the only scholar in the area. The children of these families had to go to the old scholar’s ​​private school to learn to read and write. No one dared to spread this rumor to the old scholar and Jiang Da.

Despite this, the old scholar still went to the old immortal in Huaihua Village to take a look.

The old immortal touched Jiang Da's bones, shook his head repeatedly, and asked the old scholar not to name Jiang Da first. Therefore, as the son of the old scholar, Jiang Da grew up three years old and didn't even have a nickname.

When Jiang Da was three years old, the old scholar picked up a baby girl from somewhere and brought her home to raise as a daughter.

At this time, Jiang Da had a name, named Jiang Da.

The baby girl was named Jiang Er.

Jiang Er was the body that Jiang Yunmiao threw into this illusion.

Jiang Er didn't remember everything about her life as Jiang Yunmiao on Xianliu Island, but because the local dog system had been following her, her memory in the illusion only stayed at: she, the clear girl, once traveled through time and became a farmer's girl, and there was a useless system around her.

When she first arrived at Huaihua Village, Jiang Yunmiao was still a newborn baby. Although she was an adult at heart, her body was that of a baby. She could not resist the instincts of her body and ate and slept every day.

Her greatest understanding of the world came from being picked up by Jiang Da and fed with rice porridge at a certain time every day. When Jiang Da fed her rice porridge, she learned a little bit of information about the outside world from the three-year-old Jiang Da.

The old scholar did not remarry, so Jiang Er could be said to have been raised by Jiang Da.

Ordinary days passed like this for three years.

When Jiang Da was six and Jiang Er was three years old, the old scholar suddenly died of illness, and the comfortable days of the two children were broken.
