Luo Mingchuan looked at the man in front of him, and suddenly saw his thin lips slightly opened, and he called out softly, "Senior Brother Luo."
The voice was distant and indifferent.
Luo Mingchuan suddenly came back to his senses.
In the past at Lanyuan Academy... this person also called him that.
He hadn't heard Yin Biyue address him like this for many years. It seemed that since they entered Cangya, many things had changed overnight. The friendship they once had as classmates had become like strangers.
My thoughts raced through my mind in just a moment, and when I looked at the person in front of me, I was speechless for all the questions I had prepared.
Unconsciously, he lowered his voice: "Junior Brother Yin..."
Before he could say anything else, the young man spoke first.
"Brother, are you here to ask me about the Purple Mansion Secret Realm?"
Luo Mingchuan could only nod, "That's right."
He didn't know what was wrong with him, but the facts were clear and indisputable.
Why did he still hold a secret hope in his heart and subconsciously refused to believe that the boy wanted to harm him?
Even hope...the boy is innocent.
I must be crazy.
Luo Mingchuan concentrated his mind and became alert again.
The young man stopped talking and just looked at him straight, his eyes expressing neither sadness nor joy.
No reason. No excuse.
A depressing silence echoed in the empty dungeon.
Yin Bi was so anxious that he wanted to bang his head against the wall! !
How to explain now!!
He had been rehearsing according to this script: the protagonist started off by questioning harshly, accusing and blaming him, and he took the opportunity to act as if he was bearing the humiliation. He was unwilling to explain at first, but later he was forced into a corner and said that he was coerced by an evil cultivator in the secret realm, so he had to set up a formation, just to pretend, and then at the last moment he would perish together with the evil cultivator.
What a great script, taking all the dramatic conflicts and character personalities into consideration!
Although there were too many loopholes to cover up, he had at least a 70% chance of getting away with it, thanks to his years of superb acting skills and the protagonist's integrity. The protagonist's testimony and plea at the trial provided a great turning point.
What about now? ! The protagonist, why don’t you play your cards according to the rules? !
Before he could think clearly, he saw the person opposite him frowning slightly, as if he was dissatisfied with his silence...
Then just follow his routine! Go for it!
Yin Biyue was about to speak, but when he raised his eyes suddenly, he met a pair of eyes as deep as the abyss.
It was as dark as ink, like an endless whirlpool that seemed to suck people's souls in!
Yin Biyue was suddenly shocked! Galan pupil technique!
Luo Mingchuan actually knows pupil skills!
Oh my god! Where is the Holy Mother?! Why did you use your ultimate move first?!
After traveling through time many times, he still had some experience. This method of capturing people's hearts and souls was similar to the magic of soul-stealing. If it was cultivated to the extreme, it could control other people's minds.
The pupil technique used by Luo Mingchuan is a righteous method. It will not cause mental harm to the person being treated, but it requires extremely high talent to practice.
Luo Mingchuan's current ability is only to make people confused and tell the truth.
However, this level of soul intrusion is definitely not something that the original body's cultivation can withstand. Even Liu Qishuang may not be able to block it when she is caught off guard.
In his heart, Yin Biyue was admiring the protagonist for being so incredible that he could even master such a difficult technique, and at the same time he wanted to slap his thigh and laugh wildly!
I have traveled through time and space for so many years. I have no other abilities, but my soul is as condensed as 24K titanium alloy. I have never met an opponent! !
If you don't agree, come and fight!!
...But the play must be performed.
He was stunned for just a moment, and there was a sense of emptiness in the young man's cold eyes, as if a mountain breeze suddenly blew up, bringing with it a dense mist.
Facing such a pair of innocent eyes like a child, Luo Mingchuan was almost speechless, and a sense of guilt surged in his heart...
"Junior brother, why... do you want to kill me?"
Yin Biyue wanted to slap him!
Young man! How come you don't understand the villain's heart? !
He is extremely talented but is often overshadowed, and becomes evil out of extreme jealousy! This is the setting for a villain!
The original owner was the top student in the academy, but he was always beaten by you after he joined the sect. Every day, he would encounter gossipers secretly discussing 20 times, "Although Senior Brother Luo is not as talented as Senior Brother Yin, he is a really good person!" Later, "Why did the surname Yin join Xihuafeng? I think Senior Brother Luo is a hundred times better than him!"
The original owner was just arrogant and didn't like to talk to people, but after two years of learning, his personality had become distorted! He ran towards the gloomy newspaper and never came back!
The boy suddenly smiled softly.
Like rocks falling from a calm lake, the smile spreads out from under his eyes in ripples.
The cold brows are like the melting ice and snow, and the spring breeze wakes up the peach blossoms all over the mountains.
It was as if he was originally a man in heaven, and because of this smile, he returned to the human world.
It makes people addicted to it.
"Brother, you came to see me." The boy's smile showed a hint of immaturity, and he tilted his head like a child, "That's great."
"I'm still able to see you, that's great."
Luo Mingchuan was stunned. Why did Junior Brother... say that?
This kind of Yin Biyue is too unfamiliar.
It was as if he had removed all his disguises and defenses, and melted away the coldness that kept people away. He was real... and fragile.
Yes, fragile.
He didn't understand why a person who was always proud and indifferent would be so fragile. And he felt an indescribable bitterness in his heart...
Yin Biyue only saw Luo Mingchuan's eyes flash, and ripples appeared in the dark ink.
It was like being poured with cold water, and I woke up immediately.
Could it be that Luo Mingchuan became suspicious?
Right! He asked, "Why do you want to kill him?" How could someone who was under the spell give a wrong answer?
Too arrogant! Too careless! If someone could see that there was something wrong with my mind...
I must say something immediately to divert his attention and let this loophole go!!
Yin Biyue still looked confused, his brain working rapidly.
But how to remedy this? ! During this pause, even if Luo Mingchuan was a saint, she should have known what was wrong! !
"Ding - In order to help customers better understand the use of this product, we will give you three free user experiences to help you easily solve life problems. Do you choose to use it now?"
User experience, what the heck?!
Luo Mingchuan has frowned...
Use! Use, use, use!!! Solve life problems!!
"Ding—Halo Assistant is at your service!"
Yin Biyue only felt his mind concentrated, as if there was an invisible rope in his body, pulling him to change his expression and movements.
The boy stopped smiling.
"You think I want to kill you?"
He seemed to be asking himself, or the other person, with an imperceptible tremor at the end of his voice, as if he was suppressing something, "Kill you?... How could I kill you?! Senior Brother Luo... do you know..."
A brilliant light suddenly burst out from his cold eyes, and he stared straight at the person in front of him, his eyes almost tearing up, "Even if I die one day, I won't let anything happen to you!"
Luo Mingchuan was shocked!
Madness, obsession, unwillingness, resentment, and... emotions he didn't understand. All the deep and deep feelings were condensed in those beautiful eyes, and the tail of the eyes was faintly scarlet.
He murmured, "Junior brother, you..."
"I just want to leave Cangya with you, but why did the teleportation array become a killing array of Yinghuo Shouxin?! Why is it not limited to you alone?! Why did it become like that... I can't control it... I clearly did everything that person said..."
The young man staggered forward, the iron chains rattling, his pale fingers clenching the black iron fence.
Luo Mingchuan saw the heavy iron chain tied around his delicate wrists.
Let’s…leave Cangya together?
"Who asked you to do this, and where are you taking me?"
"In the secret realm, I met a cultivator from the Pure Water Lake. He said he had a way to help me get what I wanted..." At this point, the young man suddenly became excited, his thin shoulders trembling slightly, "You asked me where I was going?! We clearly agreed on this! The teacher at the academy said, 'A gentleman should not regret his promise!' Have you really forgotten all this, Senior Brother?"
Jingshui Lake! Yes, Jingshui Lake! Junior Brother must have encountered an evil cultivator in the lake! He was tricked!
Without waiting for him to think about it and ask again, the young man continued to talk.
"Go to Qiongzhou! ... I know you don't want to go with me, so I came up with this idea."
The boy smiled again, his eyes shining, as if to say, 'I'm smart, praise me.'
Before the smile spread, he suddenly became sad, "But brother, why have you changed?"
Qiongzhou?! Luo Mingchuan widened his eyes in disbelief, "How did you know?"
...learned that, Qiongzhou?
Suddenly he realized, no! Such extreme joy and sorrow in pupil technique can easily hurt the mind!
And his intuition told him that he couldn't ask any further, because the boy would reveal a strange secret!
Luo Mingchuan shouted softly, "God comes and gives me soul, break it!"
Unfortunately, his current level of cultivation is not enough to make his words come true.
It's too late.
The young man spoke slowly, "Three years ago, on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival when the moon was full, Lanyuan Academy closed its doors, and we drank pear blossom wine all night long. That's not what you said..."
Luo Mingchuan's head exploded with a bang.
In the distant memory, such a ridiculous night has long been blurred.
God, what has he done!
Lanyuan Academy is famous all over the world. Every year, only 30 students are admitted, and even fewer graduate successfully. There is no limit to the school system. As long as you pass the school exam, you can graduate. Those who can't stay can leave on their own, but they are not allowed to enter the academy again for life and claim to be the students of the academy. Even so, with the name of the academy's abandoned students, you can still enjoy a bright future.
The graduates of the academy are either seeking truth or law, or seeking power and influence, and none of them are mediocre. It can be said that heroes of the world come from this generation.
Luo Mingchuan was four years older than Yin Biyue, but they entered the academy in the same year. After three years of studying together, they passed the exam together.
Yin Biyue even won the first place that year, becoming the youngest winner in the history of the school. All the major royal families and sects competed to win him over, and his reputation became prominent for a time.
On the night of their graduation, more than twenty people gathered at the Lotus Pavilion, drinking and singing.
This group of extremely talented young people have the ambition to conquer the world and travel the world, but they also feel confused about where tomorrow will lead them and what they want to achieve.
This farewell may be due to the mountains and rivers being too high to meet each other again, and we don't know whether we will be together or dead when we meet again; it may be a journey of flowers blooming, a prosperous future with a blazing fire, or it may be a journey of loneliness and hardship at the top of a mountain, surrounded by clouds and mist.
The road ahead is long and uncertain, and things in the world are hard to predict. All I know is that after tonight, life will never be the same.
A mixture of emotions filled my heart and turned into the wine in the glass.
That year, Yin Biyue was just a proud and arrogant boy.
That year, Luo Mingchuan was still a young boy who would act crazy when drunk.
In the lotus terrace and waterside pavilion, cups and plates were scattered everywhere, people were singing while clapping their chopsticks, enjoying fireworks and fine wine, and drinking happily until dawn.
Memory gradually wipes away the dust of light and shadow, revealing its vivid original appearance.
"I don't want to worship at Cangya Mountain. What's the point of practicing? I'd rather go back to my hometown in Qiongzhou, get married and have children..."
"Hey, come with me, let's go home..."
Luo Mingchuan was struck by the fragments that flashed through his mind.
He stood there in astonishment.
He had long forgotten who he was pulling. Could it be that it was the junior sister who slapped him the next day?
But... Junior Brother Yin? !
What happened next? Did he say something more outrageous, did he do anything, or what happened?
How old was Junior Brother at that time? ! Fourteen years old? !
He wished he could fly back to that night, pick up his drunken self and slap him twice to wake him up. You are worse than a beast!
When he wanted to speak again, he saw the mist in the eyes of the person in front of him gradually dissipate.
Her eyes were covered by thick eyelashes, and when she opened them again, they were like cold stars in the sky.
The young man frowned slightly, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, as if he didn't understand what had just happened.
The pupil technique has been solved.
After a moment of silence, the boy asked nothing. He just took two steps back and turned to walk into the darkness.
A cold voice came softly, "Brother Luo, if you have nothing else to do, please go back."
Luo Mingchuan almost fled.
