Shining as the sun.
“It’s hard not to think about it because it’s something that’s really happening around me.”
Xie Chongyue looked at the water surface covered with hot mist, his eyes flickering. "Because you saw it, right?"
"Yeah." Xu Shiqing squeezed the water bag tightly. "I see."
We see how people in this complex dynasty have lost their dignity, how they oppress and harm others, and then cover themselves with a layer of morality.
The temperature dropped at night.
"It's okay, I'm here." Xie Chongyue put a coat on him and said, "Let's remember this together."
"...I want to hug you." Xu Shiqing said, "You also remembered these things before, remembering them alone."
He wanted to hug the Xie Chongyue of the past.
Xie Chongyue paused his hand on the young man's shoulder, his eyes fixed on his loose hair—this was actually quite rude, but neither of them paid much attention to it—after a while, he said, "I want to hug you, too, but the time is not right now."
There is a task ahead.
021 had already rolled to their feet, and his entity finally became somewhat practical - he adjusted his body surface temperature to an extremely low level, like a large block of ice, greatly reducing the temperature around the two of them.
He was already sleepy and mumbling in his sleep.
.
The location of the Demon Cult is a secret that is not a secret.
The reason for saying this is that its existence is not a secret to Lingnan, especially in the villages and towns near the demonic forces. You only need to ask around to find out where it is.
This is very different from the mysterious theory of the demon cult that has been promoted in the Central Plains martial arts world.
This was Xu Shiqing's first time here, and he was undoubtedly curious about this mysterious sect in the mountains. This could be seen from his bright eyes and his scanning gaze.
"Master."
The people passing by were of all ages. When they saw them, they were all surprised and saluted Xie Chongyue, then their eyes fell on Xu Shiqing.
These people all looked healthy. The Demon Cult hadn't treated them badly. Xu Shiqing said, "They don't look like vicious people."
In fact, it can be seen from the fact that the people living near the foot of the mountain were not afraid when they mentioned the people from the Demon Sect.
"Do I look like a guy who is full of evil?" Xie Chongyue asked with a smile.
"No." Xu Shiqing said, "It just doesn't quite fit the image of the demon cult leader in everyone's eyes."
"What I am like is what the leader of the Demon Cult is like." Xie Chongyue tilted his head and led people to his own yard. It was a very ordinary yard with a house-guarding beast lying on the eaves, quietly looking at its owner whom it had not seen for a long time.
There's already chaos outside.
"Wait, wait, wait, you said the leader brought his Ziyun back?"
"What does it look like? Is it pretty?"
"White-skinned steamed buns, they look good."
"Sanniang, I think you should stay out of this. The leader loves him dearly."
The woman called Sanniang immediately put her hands on her hips, her eyes wide open with anger: "I'm not blind! Look at what's going on?!"
"Go away, go away!" She waved her hands in annoyance, driving these idle guys back to their own work and not to delay anything.
Everyone dispersed.
Most of the people had left, and Sanniang wanted to go about her own business. She called a servant and asked him to take good care of the leader and his friend. After a while, she said hesitantly, "Tell the leader that I will visit him again tomorrow."
Better to go and see it for yourself.
"Okay." The servant agreed readily.
"..." Ren Sanniang frowned fiercely: "I hope I am overthinking it, that face..."
That face shouldn't appear again.
Inside the room, the refreshed client was drying his hair while saying to Xie Chongyue, who was sitting at the other end, "Don't blow dry your hair with it wet. It can easily cause a stroke and facial paralysis."
Xie Chongyue was quite concerned about his appearance. Upon hearing this, he closed the window and walked over with wet hair, bringing with him a cool feeling and the smell of grass and trees.
The makeup on his face had been removed long ago. As he had just finished showering, his eyebrows and eyes were more blurred by the water, and the evil charm in his appearance became more prominent, even a little demonic.
Xu Shiqing wiped his hair while looking at him and said with emotion: "You don't look like a Central Plains person."
The man casually took a piece of cloth and wrapped it around the ends of his hair. Hearing this, he said lazily, "My mother is definitely not from the Central Plains."
To be precise, his mother was just a dancer sent from the south, who was favored by his father and gave birth to him. After raising him to the age where he could learn to read, the poor foreign woman died of depression.
The only impression Xie Chongyue had of him in his memory was his soft embrace with incense.
"Oh." Xu Shiqing replied but didn't continue. This topic was not very good and he had already begun to regret mentioning the other person's appearance.
021 was still writing his report. 002 was clearly a very demanding person, and this report had been rejected numerous times. The system had been struggling to organize the text the entire time they were drying their hair, before finally giving up and closing the file.
[I've had enough!] 021 wailed [Our system is responsible for this, why are we so strict about it!]
Xu Shiqing said he could not help and he was not good at writing these materials.
Xie Chongyue was even less reliable. He didn't laugh out loud because he restrained himself for Xu Shiqing's sake.
"This world is so troublesome." Xu Shiqing sighed.
Xie Chongyue said, "It's quite normal. In this kind of story that combines martial arts and detective stories, the quest requirements are more than in the normal world."
