The villain has been playing badly for ten years

The crowd was bustling, and in this brilliantly lit night, thousands of people lifted up the fish dragon, which soared into the sky like a giant shark's tail. The fish dragon lantern was made of bamboo strips and covered with colorful silk, and its scales shimmered all over.

They had not walked a few steps when they saw such a prosperous scene, which seemed like a city that never sleeps.

Fireworks flew into the clouds, exploding the shadows of thousands of blossoms. Musicians in the streets played harps and flutes, and children chased and played.

"Wow, what's going on today? It's so lively!"

Hanamibai exclaimed in admiration when he saw this.

"It's May 12th, the day to pray for fish."

"This is the mermaid festival! Why aren't you excited at all?"

He tilted his head and asked, "Do I need to be excited to visit a festival like this with you?"

After hearing Ning Xiusu's words, Hua Jianbai finally realized that men and women on the street were holding lanterns, and only children could be heard singing nursery rhymes.

"Pray for fish on this day, pray for blessings, the lotus blossoms are born in pairs, and peach blossoms bloom in front of every house."

"..."

He was a little flustered, looked away, and hurriedly moved into the crowd, just wanting to divert attention.

"Tsk tsk tsk, big villain, look over there, the Creator must be amazed again..."

Hua Jianbai saw iron flowers being made not far away. More than a dozen people lifted up the fish dragon, and suddenly it flew into the iron flowers, with flying stars illuminating the sky.

Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a voice different from Ning Xiusu's, saying sinisterly:

"Yes, it's amazing."

Hua Jianbai was shocked. When he turned around, he only saw the bronze ghost mask flash by.

The blood-red sleeve, holding a person hostage, disappeared in the crowd like a ghost in an instant.

Got it!

Where does the flower see defeated go?

I pushed through the crowd but didn't see anyone.

The wild birds cried out in surprise, and the inky sky was completely blocked by the branches of the trees.

On the forest path in the suburbs, the sparse starlight shines through the treetops, making it look extremely cold and lonely.

Ning Xiusu was being held hostage in the pitch-black darkness, and the black cloth covering his head was removed.

This is a desolate woodland, with several strange men in black, all wearing bronze ghost masks, which seem different from those偃人.

"Where's the stuff?"

One of them was wearing a red shirt as bright as blood. After searching his body, he only found a piece of fleshy thing.

He was a little angry and threw Miao Wuqiong away.

Then, a cold blade was pressed against his throat, and the red-shirted man wearing a bronze ghost mask only revealed a pair of extremely terrifying eyes.

"I'm asking you, where are the things?"

"Are you the Orderly Ones of the Three Flower Temple? What do you want?"

Ning Xiusu tried his best to calm himself down and steady his tone.

"Hmph, the Three Flower Temple."

He laughed a few times, seeming to be extremely disdainful.

"There is no such place in this world. As for the lawful people, they are not worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as us."

Ning Xiusu was a little surprised, "If it's not me, and we have no grudges against each other, why did you tie me up..."

The man with the bronze mask tilted his head slightly, his eyes piercing coldly, "That kid gave you the thing. Where is it?"

"I don't quite understand."

Suddenly, a dark light appeared, accompanied by a huge force.

Ning Xiusu fell backwards, feeling as if the air in his chest was stuck and he couldn't exhale it. He coughed a few times, and immediately his vision went dark.

The man in the bronze ghost mask, his clothes blood-red, said viciously, "If you refuse to speak, you will die."

"wait wait wait……"

Ning Xiusu realized that what they were looking for might be the talisman that looked like jade and bone.

He said hurriedly, "That thing is not with me."

Several strange men in black looked at each other, and the one wearing a bronze ghost mask sneered.

"You want to play tricks?"

"Everyone, my life depends on it. There's no need to lie. That thing was really stolen by a thief."

Among the black-clothed people, a man wearing a bronze ghost mask said, "I can hear it, but it's not with him."

What does it mean to be able to hear...?

The man in blood-red clothes said viciously, "Once you've seen that thing, you can't stay."

Ning Xiusu was slightly startled when he saw the blade falling from the air and slashing towards his neck.

With a "clang" sound, Miao Wuqiong flew over and knocked the hilt of the knife away. It rolled back into Ning Xiusu's arms by itself as if it had excellent accuracy.

The people wearing bronze ghost masks were all stunned for a moment. At this time, Hua Jianbai came without anyone noticing.

His figure was as fast as the wind, and he swung out with his sword.

As he shuttled between several people, the strange man in black sensed the approach of danger.

One by one they disappeared into the air. The man in blood-stained clothes was shocked when he saw this, and his bronze ghost mask suddenly shattered.

But before Hua Jianbai could see who was behind the mask, the other person disappeared. It was not a spell, but he simply disappeared out of thin air.

He had no choice but to sheath his sword and turned to look at Ning Xiusu, his mountain spring-like eyes full of concern.

"Can you still get up?"

Ning Xiusu took a deep breath, and his chest still seemed to hurt.

Hua Jianbai reached out to him for support, but as soon as she touched his hand, it was like some kind of electric current was connected.

He was shocked and heard a voice in his mind:

"The target of the detection mission is nearby, please complete the human task."

Baizhu, are you sick?

Is now the time for a mission?

He cursed in his heart, his foot slipped for no reason, and instead of pulling the person up, he fell down himself.

Ning Xiusu just held his fingertips, thinking he was helping out, but the next second, his entire body pressed down on him like a mountain.

The impact caused his body to fall backward, and his back hit the mud hard, and his head was buzzing.

It wasn't a serious matter originally, but now it's really life-threatening.

"Ahem... Hanamibai, you... what are you doing..."

Under the impact of this energy and blood, Ning Xiusu's entire sentence fell apart, and his tone became a series of unclear words.

"Oh, big villain, I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it."

As he spoke, he took a few breaths of the cold fragrance of pine and cypress, and a smell of ink returned to his mouth. He quickly got up and went to help with a guilty look.

The hand that was originally meant to support each other became somewhat uncontrollable and inexplicably reached towards the other's waist.

Ning Xiusu had just sat up when his body suddenly froze, as if the air seemed to stand still for a second. He had seen people taking advantage of others, but he had never seen anyone so straightforward and unconcealed.

"No, what on earth do you want to do?"

"I...hey!"

Hua Jianbai secretly groaned in his heart, knowing that even if he jumped into the Yellow River, he would never be able to wash himself clean.

He stamped his foot in embarrassment, turned and ran.

Damn mission!

It's so embarrassing.

Hua Jianbai didn't want to have any contact with Ning Xiusu anymore. He wanted to stay away from him to avoid the embarrassment of thinking about him.

The night was dark, making the path difficult to walk on.

But the guy who called himself Baizhu kept cycling through the taskbar, his vision flickered and darkened, and he could hardly see the road clearly.

Ning Xiusu saw that the man stopped every three steps and staggered, as if he was drunk.

"Hana Jianbai, why are you acting so weird?"

He turned around and spread his hands: "No."

The two returned to Youzhou City from the wild countryside. As soon as they entered Zuifeng Pavilion, Hua Jianbai lay down on the table.

He has no money and nowhere to go... It looks like he's going to stay here.

"..."

Ning Xiusu sat aside and said, "I'm tired. Go to bed and sleep."

"Oh, no."

He frowned: "What's wrong with you?"

Hanamibai seemed to be at a loss for words for a moment, and after a long moment of anxiety, he managed to utter: "It's just... anyway..."

As the alarm blared, he stammered for a long time.

"Big villain, it was my fault before. I shouldn't have left without saying goodbye, and I shouldn't have lied to you..."

Ning Xiusu raised his eyebrows and looked at him: "What exactly do you want to say?"

Hanamibai didn't know what was going on, but suddenly the corners of his eyes became blurry.

"I have nowhere to go, please don't chase me away."

He was suddenly stunned. Hua Jianbai usually looked like a girl, and it was not at all out of place when he acted coquettishly...

"When did I chase you away?"

"Then are you willing to help me save people?"

Ning Xiusu knew that he had restrained his temper this time because he had something to ask for.

For a moment, there was no answer. Hua Jianbai squeezed out two tears and gently pulled her sleeve, refusing to let go.

Ning Xiusu didn't expect this to happen, and his heart almost skipped a beat.

He was silent for a moment, "Let go and talk nicely."

"Big villain, I don't know anyone in the domain anymore..."

Ning Xiusu smelled the extremely pleasant fragrance of intoxicating flowers at the tip of his nose. It was different from ordinary cosmetics and not at all greasy.

For no apparent reason, his throat slipped, and he didn't know where to put his hands. After a while, he said:

"We are all men, can you please stop crying?"

"You know I'm not!"

His tone is like he's playing tricks.

"Besides, I've been traveling here for so long, and I've never begged anyone like this before."

Ning Xiusu obviously couldn't do anything to him.

Perhaps tears could indeed melt Ling Han's heart. He almost sighed:

"So, you don't plan to break up?"

Hua Jianbai was stunned when he heard him say that. He looked up at him and asked, "What are you breaking up?"

He tsk-tsked, "Why do I remember that? I don't know who said it back then, but if you see me, you should take a detour..."

Hua Jianbai was stunned for a moment and wiped away tears.

"Can you please admit my mistake? Why is the villain so stingy?"

Hanami was trying to make amends when he suddenly thought of something. How did he know about the conversation between me and Ayu...

He suddenly realized and glared at Ning Xiusu, then let go: "No wonder you were able to see through my disguise. How could you be so sneaky and eavesdrop? You're quite sinister..."

Ning Xiusu looked at him coldly. Hua Jianbai changed the subject and quickly said in a compliment: "Excellent talent."

Hua Jianbai rarely flatters with his words, but he is actually calculating in his heart.

Since he has to stay with Ning Xiusu due to the character setting task, there must be a clear reason. Otherwise, given Ning Xiusu's personality, he might suspect that he has improper intentions.
