Chapter 091 Chapter 91

"I will work part-time to pay off the accommodation fees for this period of time." At this time, Zhu Changan's eyes were surprisingly bright.

Yuheng wanted to refuse, but when he saw Zhu Changan's eyes, he swallowed his words back.

Zhu Changan is now in a state of self-denial. He needs to do something to prove that he is worthy of continuing to exist. "Working to pay for accommodation" may be the floating wood that can keep Zhu Changan going for a while.

Changan's current state is definitely not just due to his background. This guy has always had a stable mentality and would not easily fall into a self-denial mood. There must be something else behind this.

But now is not the time to ask questions. Yuheng sighed softly and smiled gently: "Okay. If you need any help, you can tell me."

Zhu Changan nodded vigorously. Yuheng couldn't help it, and stretched out his hand to rub his hair under his confused gaze.

It was a novel experience to communicate with his little friend face to face in the manner of an elder, although the little friend's next words almost made his heart stop.

"Senior, there is something I don't know whether I should tell you or not." Zhu Changan was rarely entangled, and it seemed that the matter was not trivial.

"Tell me about it."

"Have you ever heard of the name Mo Xuanji?"

“…”

System: "Oh no! This is bad!"

At this moment, Mo Xuanji's consciousness choked in the depths of his sea of ​​consciousness. Chang'an, my dear friend, at this time, are you still worrying about my family reunion?

Yuheng still maintained a gentle and calm expression, neither answering nor denying.

Seeing that he had no aversion, Zhu Changan relaxed a little and continued, "It's like this, Xuanji is my friend, and you saved him before. He is nineteen years old and is a member of the Feather Clan."

"He was separated from his biological parents when he was young, and only recently learned about his origins. And he looks very similar to you, especially his eyes... and smells similar too. I think he may have some relationship with you."

In fact, Zhu Changan's thoughts were very simple. His friend had never known his origins since he was a child, and had never seen his biological parents. Later, the identity of the Feather Clan was revealed. Although Mo Xuanji had kept it to himself, Zhu Changan was still sensitive to the fact that something was wrong with his friend, and it happened more than once.

Zhu Changan actually knew that his friend had always been confused and bewildered about his life experience, but Mo Xuanji didn't say it on his own initiative, so he didn't dare to ask.

Meeting Yuheng this time was totally unexpected for Zhu Changan. Originally, Zhu Changan was skeptical about the relationship between Yuheng and Mo Xuanji, but after this meeting, his soul almost immediately became agitated, telling him that there must be some connection between Yuheng in front of him and his little friend.

Whether the sixth sense is accurate or not depends on fate, but there is no harm in asking. If the senior doesn't know about Xuanji's existence, he might be able to help a little, which can be regarded as repaying the senior's kindness. If the senior knows but doesn't care, he can also ask why for his friend.

Xuanji, don't worry, I will definitely help you find out the truth today.

At this time, Zhu Changan's eyes were firm, but his friend was not in good condition.

"Smell? Can you smell it?" Mo Xuanji's pupils in the sea of ​​consciousness trembled. Do the vest and the original body smell the same? They have only met once, and it has been a long time since then. It is impossible for them to be contaminated with each other's smell. And Chang'an is not the kind of person who talks nonsense, so...

Under what circumstances would two individuals with no overlap smell very similar?

"Jizai, if you don't answer Chang'an, he might notice something is wrong." The system interrupted his thoughts.

Yuheng nonchalantly poured tea for the two of them. Under Zhu Changan's inquiring gaze, he gently put down the teapot with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

"I have always been concerned about him, but there are many things that I cannot express."

"Besides, our identities will bring him endless troubles and crises. I don't want him to get involved, nor do I want you to be implicated. The only way to protect him now is to keep your distance."

"So that's how it is." Zhu Changan touched his hair subconsciously. Sure enough, he thought too simply. Even a powerful being like the senior would have things he couldn't do anything about.

"I hope that as few people as possible know about this. Don't tell the child either. I will explain everything to him after everything is settled." Yuheng said softly.

Really, if they pass it on, they will never be able to clear themselves. We cannot let a dragon who is thousands of years old lose his integrity in his later years.

Zhu Changan seemed to have been fooled. He nodded repeatedly and patted his chest to promise that he would never leak the secret.

…

The antique shop has plenty of space. In addition to the master bedroom on the second floor, there are several guest rooms on the first floor. The guest rooms are not usually used, and there is nothing inside except basic furnishings. You can move in with your luggage after a simple cleaning.

Liuliu took the initiative to fly around Zhu Changan twice, saying that she would take him to find a room. I don't know if it was an illusion, but Yuheng actually saw some pity in Liuliu's eyes. Of course, the pity was for Zhu Changan.

I almost forgot that although Liuliu usually behaves like a retarded bird, she has actually lived for more than three thousand years and is already an old man or grandmother. Chang'an is a real kid in front of her, and this somehow triggered a certain strange attribute of Liuliu.

But then again, do fire spirits have genders?

"No, Liuliu's true form is just a ball of fire." The system said lazily.

Zhu Changan followed Liuliu to the guest room to pack up their things. They met You Lin carrying a kettle at the corner after walking a few steps. You Lin had a stern face and looked a little scary. Only Yuheng knew that this guy had fallen into a trance.

You Lin nodded expressionlessly at Zhu Changan, and after he left, he walked towards Yuheng hand in hand.

Oh no, why does something seem wrong?

"You forgot to open the soundproof barrier." The system finally realized something.

"Why didn't you remind me?" Yuheng still maintained his outward calmness, but no one knew that the villain in his heart was almost "running wildly".

"I just remembered..."

Yuheng looked away silently. It seemed as if I had become even more miserable without being noticed... I felt a little guilty.

You Lin wanted to speak but stopped, and he opened his mouth several times but couldn't utter a complete sentence. It was obvious that his language had just undergone a reorganization.

"Well... uh, I didn't mean to eavesdrop." You Lin said dryly.

"I know." Sorry, I forgot to mute it. The antique shop is so small that it would be hard not to hear it without setting up a barrier.

Besides, You Lin looked so honest and simple, and he didn't seem like the type of person who would eavesdrop.

You Lin showed a tangled expression again, which made Yu Heng subconsciously alert. He thought You Lin would continue to ask questions, and he had prepared a response. But after the tangled conversation, the guy chose to change the subject: "The child just now had a wrong smell."

As he said this, he wrinkled his nose again, as if to confirm something.

This time Yuheng remembered to turn on the mute, and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

No, how come everyone's nose is so sharp? Can they really smell anything? Yuheng, who couldn't smell anything, was puzzled.

"That child doesn't smell like a human, but he doesn't smell like a demon either. It's like something has confused his aura." You Lin looked a little concerned. Since the two tribes formed an alliance, everyone has always been straightforward in their interactions. Humans are humans, and demons are demons. They have long stopped doing these hypocritical things. If they are hiding something, there must be something wrong.

Yu Heng quickly realized what You Lin was worried about, so he chuckled and shook his head: "Don't worry, Chang An is a good child."

In fact, Yuheng had previously guessed whether Zhu Changan was carrying something that could hide his aura, but his own identity was revealed first, and it was so sudden that he had no time to delve into the matter for a long time.

Now it seems that Changan's life experience is not simple. Come to think of it, after all, he is the protagonist carefully selected by the world, how can the protagonist have an ordinary and uneventful life experience.

You Lin felt relieved when he heard him say this and quietly put away the soundproofing barrier.

Meanwhile, Zhu Changan tidied up his room. He sat on a chair, and couldn't help thinking of the man he had just met.

It really looks like that, especially the aura that kept people away when they first met, which was exactly the same as Xuanji. If nothing unexpected happened, that person should be Xuanji's other parent, right?

Zhu Changan stroked his hair. He recalled the records of "best friends breaking up" and "brothers killing each other" that he had seen in the unofficial history books before, and thought that unofficial history is indeed unreliable and rumors are not necessarily true. They are in a good relationship. It's a pity that he can't tell Xuanji now, otherwise he will definitely be very happy and the pressure will be much less, right?

…

"Your presence will only kill those around you."

…

The old man's words exploded in Zhu Changan's mind like a thunderbolt. The expression on his face froze for a moment, then slowly disappeared. Even though he tried hard not to think about it, the old man's words still echoed in his mind like a spell.

Zhu Changan suddenly thought of the previous missions. Every time his companions were injured, it seemed that he was related to them. The first time, Xuanji saved him, and the second time, it was to buy him time... No matter which time, Xuanji almost couldn't wake up, and Liuxue was always dragged down by him...

Yes, my existence will only kill people around me.

Zhu Changan curled himself up silently, thinking: I should find a new place to live as soon as possible, move out quickly, and stop causing trouble for my seniors.
