Volume 2, Chapter 41: Desire of Illusion

Ye Tingmu shook his head, feeling something was wrong.

But I can’t tell.

She entered the room.

The little face is bright and the eyes are watery.

The long eyelashes hide the gleam in the eyes.

He curled his lips, and his porcelain doll-like face was full of grievance.

"Wuwu.....Brother!"

He was stunned at first, wondering why there were tears in Jinghong's eyes.

Then he came back to his senses, his lips slightly raised, his face full of doting.

He walked over and prepared to change her clothes, not forgetting to tease Xiao Jinghong.

"You, you, tell me, how many times has this happened this month?"

When Jinghong heard this, her tears and crying stopped.

He looked up at Ye Tingmu with surprise in his eyes.

"Brother, this is my first time peeing. I drank too much water last night, so..." She lowered her head as she spoke.

The look in Ye Tingmu's eyes flickered again.

He asked suspiciously, "Really? Could it be that Big Brother remembered it wrongly?"

Jinghong pursed her lips.

“I didn’t pee in the first place…”

I changed Jinghong's clothes and hung the bedding out to dry.

Ye Tingmu paced to the peach tree at the gate of the courtyard.

In the vegetable garden in early spring, green vegetables sprouted new buds.

Ye Tingmu touched his chin and thought.

His eyes were fixed on the magpie's nest on the top of the tree.

Everything is familiar, the familiar feeling, but why does it always make him uneasy?

And something is so wrong.

He always felt that everything today was weird, but he couldn't put his finger on it.

Suddenly at this moment.

On the other side of the trail, an ox cart returned loaded with food.

It is topped with meat, vegetables and rice.

Feng He held Da Hei in one hand and Guan Qi in the other.

Guanqi jumped and skipped, and with every step he took, the ponytail behind him would dance.

Lively and cute, always smiling.

Ye Tingmu turned around and looked at the car full of things in surprise.

He hurriedly went up to him and said to Feng He, "Second Brother, where did you get the money to buy so many things?"

There was a whole cart full of stuff, and in it was half a pig.

There is also exquisite pastry beef...and so on!

In his memory, it would cost at least dozens of taels of silver.

But he remembered that he clearly didn't have much money left.

Where did Fenghe get the money to buy it?

Feng He looked at Ye Tingmu in surprise.

"Brother, are you okay? Didn't you just give me three hundred taels yesterday? Did you forget?"

Ye Tingmu took a breath and asked in confusion, "Do I have so much money? Where did it come from?"

Feng He shrugged.

"I earned it by slaying demons."

Upon hearing this, Ye Tingmu's face became solemn.

He muttered to himself, is this how you can make money by slaying demons?

But he didn't say much.

"Come in, or Qingfeng will be hungry."

"good!"

Feng He led the cow into the yard.

Guanqi jumped past him.

Shouted.

"Brother, I'll go cook first!"

With a loud "boom..."

Ye Tingmu only felt his head buzzing.

He stood there in a daze.

His eyes widened.

The world seems to be quiet at this moment.

The space around him seemed to be imprisoned.

Guanqi spoke, she spoke.

He tried desperately to recall.

In my memory, watching chess really does speak.

But why was the shock and joy in her heart so obvious when she heard her speak just now?

It was like something that I had been looking forward to for a long time suddenly came true at that moment.

It made him feel so unreal.

He turned his head to look at the back of the person watching the chess game.

Murmuring in the mouth.

"Watching chess in silence, watching chess in silence, this is wrong, absolutely wrong."

Suddenly he felt a splitting headache.

He grasped his hair with both hands.

Veins bulged on his forehead.

"This is not right, this is not right."

Countless images flashed through my mind.

Where is Qingfeng's snot?

Why doesn’t Jinghong wet the bed anymore?

Why are you so rich?

Also, why are there six people on the handkerchief?

Who is the other person?

And watching chess.

Watching chess in silence.

So her name is Ye Guanqi because she can't speak.

His head hurt more and more.

Until he made a sound.

He roared to the sky.

"ah......."

His face became more and more distorted.

He looked at the Qingfeng sword at his waist.

Then hold it in your hand.

It must not be like this, it must not be like this.

He drew out the Qingfeng sword in a daze.

"This is an illusion. I need to find a fairy grave for Qingfeng. I shouldn't be here."

As the long sword's tip pierced into his chest.

Ye Tingmu didn't feel any pain at all.

At the same time, the surrounding scenes were slowly dissipating.

Ye Tingmu's memories also flooded out.

He looked down at the Qingfeng sword on his chest.

I don't know why.

The sword has disappeared at this time.

Turned into nothingness.

Ye Tingmu’s headache was gone.

He stood up slowly.

Looking at his hands, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It turned out to be just as I guessed.

This is an illusion.

Why does it appear here? There must be something fishy in the fog.

He watched the scene wither around him.

Just at this moment a voice rang out.

"Hehehe... I didn't expect you to wake up so soon."

Upon hearing this, Ye Tingmu's brows furrowed even tighter.

His eyes darted around.

But no trace was found.

"Who, who is talking there?"

"Hehehe....It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I can give you whatever you want."

Soon, a lightning bolt appeared on Ye Tingmu's waist.

His palm also rested on the hilt of the sword in his hand.

"You can give me everything I want? You are so arrogant, sir."

"Well... didn't I just give you what you wanted? You just refused."

Is it what you want?

The breeze doesn't wash your nose, the beautiful woman doesn't wet your bed, and you can talk while watching chess.

He built a thatched hut on a small plot of land outdoors and lived with his younger brothers and sisters.

And one thing is that there is endless money to spend.

That's what he wanted.

A cow and four children are safe and sound, with money, food and a home. When busy, they mend fences and plant flowers, and when free, they enjoy wine and tea.

Recalling everything I just saw.

Ye Tingmu's brows drooped again.

Desire, this is his desire.

The fog explored his thoughts and presented him with a new world.

If he becomes greedy, he will be trapped in the eternal dream of time forever.

But it was precisely because of this that he woke up.

His understanding of his younger brothers and sisters is ingrained in his bones.

It was even more deeply imprinted in the sea of consciousness.

Only he knows the little flaws of each of them.

Perfect or imperfect, he likes it all.

This illusion wanted to realize Ye Tingmu's dream too much, so it magnified Ye Tingmu's expectations infinitely and presented the scene just now.

Now he was certain that the place he was in was just an illusion.

He wasn't wasting time talking to the other party.

The most urgent thing is to wake up.

My younger brothers and sisters are still waiting for me at home.

"A mere illusion, you think you can trap me? If so, I will break it with one sword."

As he spoke, lightning struck him.

Thunder roamed for a moment.

"Hahaha... Since desire can't keep you, then let's try fear."

When that voice fell.

The surrounding scenery changed again.

Being in it, Ye Tingmu felt as if the stars had passed and time had changed.

Before his sword move landed, his entire body began to slowly dissipate.

His heart became even more solemn.

Shouting loudly.

"Who are you?"
