Chapter 179: The End of Life and Death

Li Yanze didn't refuse, but it made him feel worse than if he had refused. After he finished speaking, he looked around the courtyard as if nothing had happened, tilted his head to look at him, without hiding or avoiding.

"We used to live here?"

Qi You nodded slightly: "But later I went to the Imperial Capital. Actually, I spent more time in the Imperial Capital."

Li Yanze followed him into the courtyard. The place was still the same as before, and most of the things were bought and arranged by Li Yanze, who was always busy.

Occasionally, when they were having their meals in the yard, Li Yanze would tilt his head to see if there was anything else he needed to bring up.

"Then why are we going to the Imperial Capital? Isn't this place good?"

Li Yanze forgot about this place, but instinctively ran to the vegetable patch in the yard to look at the leaves that were growing well.

Qi Youwei followed him and answered every question until he heard Li Yanze ask this. He paused for a second, and then said calmly: "I wanted to trick you into returning to the imperial capital. I'm not sure when you will want to leave here."

"Then I won't leave you when we return to the imperial capital?" Li Yanze chatted casually, leaning on the fence with his hand and looking down at the chicks inside.

"Because there... I am sure that you will continue to be soft-hearted towards me. At worst, I can lock you up in the palace."

Li Yanze uttered a low wow, as if he was listening to a story. Qi Youwei suddenly closed his eyes and couldn't help asking him, "You... don't believe me?"

Li Yanze thought for a moment and said, "Now that it has come to this, it can't be false."

He picked up another chick and placed it in his palm, feeling the fine hairs on its body. "But whether it's real or fake, it's not that important. It's all in the past."

All that love and hate was like a mountain breeze that passed through his fingertips, leaving nothing behind and being able to leave nothing behind.

Qi Youwei finally couldn't help but stepped forward and tightly grasped his wrist, staring into his eyes. Their eyes met, and all the surging emotions were blocked by his clear and calm expression.

Because of memory, they have some subtle dislocation.

Qi Youwei's throat choked with sobs, and he wanted to ask an unreasonable question in grievance, "How could you forget me?"

"How could that be?"

Whether you don't care, hate him, or become soft-hearted and waver towards him, it doesn't matter what happens.

Don't leave him alone in the past like this.

The lonely city is nowhere to be found thousands of miles away, and the person who is nowhere to be found is not Li Yanze.

Li Yanze still let him hold her, because he felt that Qi Youwei looked really painful, and he didn't think it was a big deal to hold her, and he didn't struggle out of concern.

"Actually, I sometimes think of this place and you, but they are just vague fragments." Li Yanze told the truth: "Will you feel better this way?"

Qi Youwei's face turned pale and he loosened his grip on him as if he was exhausted.

"Your golden elixir is still with me. Do you want to take it back?" Qi Youwei asked him softly, even with hope in his tone.

Li Yanze held the chicken in his hands, shook his head, and looked at Qi You's thin face: "If it wasn't my will, no one could take it from me. Even if I forcibly dissected it, you wouldn't be able to survive until now."

"Just think of it as a gift from me. There's no reason to ask for gifts back."

Qi Youwei seemed to be back to that night, with the bloody wound that was forcibly opened, his hands and face full of the smell of rust, which was slippery and quickly cooled and solidified.

It was not a gift, it was just a transaction. He used the golden elixir to exchange for his freedom. He did not ask Qi Youwei whether he had been trying to steal his golden elixir, or whether those feelings were real or fake.

Just tell him, I don't believe you anymore.

I clearly rejected all his explanations. This is what love is like. When you trust someone, he will believe you even if you put a knife to his neck.

That's what they do when they don't trust.

Qi Youwei has become increasingly silent this year, and apart from necessary commands, he can hardly speak or communicate.

Li Yanze was now sitting next to him, stroking the penis calmly and leisurely, poking the round body with his fingers. Qi Youwei had a lot to say, but couldn't squeeze out a word.

Li Yanze glanced at him and said, "Stretch out your hand."

Qi Youwei didn't need to think about it, and immediately stretched out his hand, but his hand was facing upwards. Li Yanze laughed: "The palm of your hand."

Qi Youwei turned his hand over and watched him hold the chicken in his palm. The fluff was soft, but a fresh chicken still had some weight in his palm.

Li Yanze stood up and glanced at the house, obviously not planning to go in.

"We have finished our discussion today. Can you remove the bounty? I am not the only one in Qingluan Mountain. There are also my senior brothers and master. I don't want them to worry as well."

Qi Youwei was silent for a while and suddenly said, "Parting in life and death. Our ending has been determined, right?"

Li Yanze didn't understand. The scene in front of him seemed to be shattered, and the fluffy little chick disappeared.

They were standing in a deserted courtyard with weeds growing everywhere in front of it. After more than a year of wind, frost, rain and snow, no one had bothered to maintain the abandoned thatched hut, so of course only a frame was left.

Before Li Yanze could react, a blue spiritual power flew past him. Qi You raised his hand slightly and blocked it lightly. The blue spiritual power was absorbed into his hand like water waves.

Gu Fengze frowned and walked over, grabbed Li Yanze, and looked at Qi Youwei.

"You want to trap him again?"

Qi Youwei stood in front of the dilapidated thatched hut with a calm expression. He looked at Gu Fengze without saying a word.

But the panel in front of Gu Fengze suddenly popped up: [Darkness value: 100%...corrected to 99%]

Gu Fengze's eyebrows jumped, and he looked at Qi Youwei suddenly. "It's you?"

"It's me."

Gu Fengze had anticipated this situation, but he thought that at most it would be like before, with their thoughts beginning to communicate with each other, but he did not expect that he could do it to this extent.

"If I follow your lead, what will happen?"

Gu Fengze calmed down. The surroundings suddenly became quiet. The leaves were blown by the wind and suddenly froze in mid-air. Li Yanze just closed his eyelashes and stopped without opening his eyes.

Qi Youwei looked around, his face showing understanding, without any surprise at all.

"Didn't you tell me?" Gu Fengze told him: "Life and death. This is the world line planned by the small world."

"Shouldn't you lie to me, at least to achieve your goal?" Qi Youwei walked towards him step by step. The closer he got to Gu Fengze, the more strangely familiar he felt.

"Don't you feel it too? I can't lie to you, and you can't lie to me." Gu Fengze said with a mocking smile: "The only person you can lie to is him."

"What if I keep him like this?" This is not difficult for him. He can slow down the progress. As long as this world is never completed, Li Yanze and Qi Youwei will naturally continue to exist.

"Then he will die." Gu Fengze looked at Qi Youwei: "If he fails in any mission, he will be worthless and he will die."

Qi Youwei is still a person in the small world after all. He has no way of knowing why the so-called world line and the so-called fate have arranged such separations of life and death to complete this so-called mission.

But he knew that Gu Fengze was not lying.

"Mission." Qi Youwei repeated: "Doing what they say will lead to good results?"

Gu Fengze didn't say another word, but just raised Li Yanze's hand: "If you think this way, you should know that I would think the same way."

Qi Youwei suddenly pulled Li Yanze's wrist and pulled him into his arms, looking at Gu Fengze: "Don't touch him."

The moment he knew that Li Yanze was not dead, an idea that was too strong to ignore suddenly appeared in his mind.

You must give him the silver ring, you must give it to him.

Qi Youwei was very familiar with spells and thoughts. If someone had tampered with him, he would not have been unaware. This thought became more profound and clearer, and the more he thought about it, the less he could think of the reason.

The more he couldn't think of the reason, the more he wanted to think about it, just like he had spent countless days and nights thinking about how they ended up like this.

Until one day, he vaguely felt Gu Fengze's thoughts and vaguely saw his display screen.

All this seems like some kind of conspiracy, a trick of fate. But just that one sentence.

"He will die."

Qi Youwei would not think about all the bad possibilities, even if this was a game, a scam. As long as this sentence was true, Qi Youwei would obediently accept this fate.

Qi Youwei took off the silver ring on her wrist, held his hand and was about to put it on. In an instant, a gold ring appeared on Li Yanze's wrist.

Gu Fengze was surprised for a moment. Qi You paused and laughed, "The fate you arranged for us requires suspicion, separation, and deception."

"But now, if he is really completely disappointed in me, I can't give him this silver ring."

The gold ring and the silver ring are mutually reinforcing and counteracting. The silver ring binds, and the gold ring loosens.

The heart moves as it pleases, just like when Qi Youwei is pretending the most, he keeps saying "you are free" but the silver ring on his wrist keeps shining.

These thoughts cannot be hidden even by the holders.

But the silver ring was slowly pushed to Li Yanze's wrist. The gold ring only lit up for a moment, and then hung quietly on his wrist like an ornament from beginning to end.

Qi Youwei suddenly remembered that night. Even though they were completely on opposite sides and even though the silver chain was wrapped around him, the golden ring never lit up and never worked.

The gold ring and the silver ring attracted each other. The gold ring embellished the silver ring like flowing light, responding to Qi Youwei silently and obscurely.

Even if you are a liar, untrustworthy, suspicious, and neurotic, Li Yanze has never really thought of leaving him alone.

The wind from Taoxi Mountain started to blow again, and the sound of rustling leaves could be heard. The pink and white peach petals floated freely and lightly like snowflakes.

Li Yanze raised his eyes and saw flower petals falling on Qi Youwei's half-white hair. He subconsciously reached out to catch them and twisted them off.

[Firewall is enabled]

"07-06, recovered, congratulations."

Qi Guze and Qi Youwei stood together. There were clearly two people in front of Li Yanze, but in an instant their figures blurred and only one person was left.

He was wearing a simple white shirt and black pants. There was a mole in the folds of his eyelids, but when he opened his eyes he saw dark blue eyes, familiar yet strange.
