under one roof

46

The night seemed to be much longer than usual.

The content of Yu Chen's dream was like fragments, he couldn't see clearly clearly, he just felt extremely depressed, he didn't even know what kind of pain he had experienced in his dream, he was so sad that he couldn't breathe.

"Yu Chen! Wake up!" The familiar voice changed from blurred to clear, Yu Chen's breathing became faster and faster, until Yang Jian's face gradually became clear, he woke up and opened his eyes "swish", but he was still unconscious. Looking at Yang Jian calmly, even though he couldn't see anything clearly in the dark.

"What did you dream about?" Yang Jian's fingers slid across Yu Chen's face, "Why are you crying?" Human tears are hot and humid, and there is still warmth in the fingertips.

"Am I crying?" Yu Chen blinked, touched the back of his hand, it was indeed wet, "I don't know...I don't know..."

Yang Jian said, "You have something on your mind."

"No." Yu Chen subconsciously denied it first, "I told you everything, what secrets can I have?" He wanted to wash his face and avoid Yang Jian by the way, but Yang Jian pulled him away before he finished the action go back.Yang Jian held his waist with one hand, and pinched his chin with the other to lift him up, so that his face had to be directed at Yang Jian.Yu Chen hasn't seen Yang Jian so closely for a long time, that face is no different from the first time, perfect without any blemishes, because he is a god.

"Yang Jian, you are very strange." Yu Chen said, "You are not the same at all from the beginning."

"Because I may not be able to control myself." Yang Jian said with a smile, "My bracelet is broken." What he said was not so clear, but Yu Chen understood the general meaning.When Yang Jian first came with a mission, he was full of vigor and strategizing, as if nothing could stop him.But now that unexpected events happened again and again, the energy-storing bracelet was blown into powder, and he almost woke up.Yang Jian, who had lost his strength, also kept calm as much as possible.

Yu Chen said: "Then what should we do? How do you go back?"

"I don't know." Yang Jian was very honest this time, "Let's take a step and see."

"Can the Great Sage help you?" Yu Chen said, "He is so powerful, there must be... a solution."

"What can he do?" Yang Jian said, "Do you think he is better than me?"

Yu Chen didn't speak, but his expression betrayed him.Yang Jian was not very happy about this, and said, "Do you think so?"

"No, no, you are the most powerful." In order to deepen the credibility of this sentence, Yu Chen deliberately poked forward.Looking at Yang Jian, he paused for a while, and said to Yang Jian involuntarily, "Yang Jian, can you let me whore?"

"Huh?" Yang Jian was a little surprised.

"No whoring for nothing." Yu Chen explained, "I still do work for you. I won't let you do anything else."

Yang Jian asked with a smile: "Then why are you drawing such a picture?"

"Picture... greedy for life and afraid of death." Yu Chen said, "I seem to have no confidence in the future. I used to work hard, but in the end I found out that I was just making wedding dresses for others. I think science It is the power to change the world, but now I can't... Follow you and live a life of uncertain life, I haven't been in love yet, hey... Let's discuss it? If one day I really win the lottery If it’s over, I’ll take it with the dog, if there’s still life after everything is over…”

"how?"

"You guys should have some way to make me not remember the experience that happened." Yu Chen said, "I want to live a normal life, and it's better not to remember anything."

Yang Jian lowered his eyes slightly, then raised his eyes to look at Yu Chen, and asked, "Is it okay to forget about me?"

"Yes." Yu Chen nodded very firmly.

"I promise you." Yang Jian stretched out his palm after simple thinking, "I won't let you die."

Yu Chen raised his hand a little slowly. He looked at Yang Jian's palm, closed his eyes and patted it, and said, "Thank you." He sat upright on the bed, faced Yang Jian, opened his arms to hug him, and hugged him in his ear. Bian said softly again: "Thank you."

Even Yang Jian, who does not eat the fireworks in the world, will feel a different kind of emotion in such a silent night, in such a thin embrace.Taoism follows nature, and nature is the most direct thing to follow the heart. He has practiced for thousands of years, but he rarely realizes what it feels like to respect the heart.He only knows that existence is reasonable. They have all kinds of gods, so there are all kinds of human beings in the mortal world.Skin color, language, and gender differentiate human beings, but after all, aren’t they also a little spark in nature?

He began to feel that this embrace was warm.Then Yu Chen's words of gratitude kept reverberating in his brain, like ripples, swaying into the deepest layer after layer, making him almost addicted...

Yang Jian trembled, and it seemed that active energy began to inject into the meridians.He frowned and tightened his embrace a little, and the feeling of energy returning became clearer.

"Yang Jian, don't..." Yu Chen said sadly, "I'm going to be strangled to death by you."

Yang Jian ignored him, buried his head in Yu Chen's neck, and pressed him firmly on the bed.He felt where this energy came from, so he unconsciously stroked Yu Chen with his hand.How did Yu Chen know what he was doing?Being caressed like this, her cheeks instantly turned red.The last time he was so close to Yang Jian was when they went to the central hub together.

The imaginative images in his mind made Yu Chen unable to suppress his instincts. He was afraid of putting himself in an embarrassing situation, so he could only struggle and push Yang Jian, and whispered, "That... don't do this..."

"Don't move." Yang Jian replied in a low voice.He raised one arm and looked at Yu Chen, the tip of his nose was only a tiny bit away from Yu Chen's face, as if he could kiss him with just a slight bow.Yang Jian's fingers slid down Yu Chen's face, and his eyes were full of scrutiny.

"Okay, although it's a bit too fast..." Yu Chen gave up resistance and said a little shyly, "It's my first time, please take it easy."

"What are you talking about?" Yang Jian's expression changed, his finger slipped onto Yu Chen's neck, and he pulled the jade pendant off with a single hook, "I was able to wake up so quickly last time because of this."

Yu Chen was stunned on the bed for two seconds, seeing that Yang Jian's attention was all focused on the jade pendant, he was immediately extinguished.He slowly got up, trying to relieve his embarrassing complications of terminal cancer with a "haha" dry laugh, and said, "That... If you think it's useful, take it away..."

Yang Jian pressed the jade pendant close to his chest, but the feeling that he was about to regain his ability just now disappeared. He was not reconciled, and tried repeatedly, but the result was the same as before.He sighed, hung the jade pendant back around Yu Chen's neck, and said, "I don't know how to control it."

"Then you give it to me, I don't know either." Yu Chen said.

"You save it first." Yang Jian said, "Let's talk about it later. There are so many thorny problems now, and this little jade is not up to it." He pushed Yu Chen onto the bed: "Go to sleep."

They just lay on the bed like this, Yu Chen's original drowsiness was completely wiped out by this toss.He stared at the ceiling with his eyes open, and asked, "When will Xiaotian come back?"

"Come back naturally when it's time to come back."

"Where are we going tomorrow?"

"Keep going west."

"Yang Jian, you are very boring."

"Sleep, you will be on the road for a long time tomorrow, and you have so much work to do."

"..."

Yu Chen turned around, put his arms around Yang Jian's neck and kissed him quickly, then immediately lay flat and pretended to be dead, and said, "I fell asleep! Good night!"

A thin man walked slowly on a lonely air corridor. Although it was a corridor, it was as wide as a bridge across the river. The end of the connection was a magnificent palace floating in midair.The scenery here is weird, the sky is pure to transparent, but it is white, the palace is surrounded by green plants, and the outer layer is a honeycomb barrier that is looming.If you look at these alone, it is indeed peaceful and peaceful.Looking down again, the color suddenly became hot and bright red. It turned out to be a sea of ​​magma and fire.

The man's steps were very frequent, and it really took him a while to reach the gate of the palace at the end.It's just that he was procrastinating to pass the time.

Several rays swept across him outside the gate, and after confirming his identity, the gate opened.

"Where is he?" the man asked the guard beside him.

The guard knew who he was asking, nodded and said, "Waiting for you."

The man walked forward quickly, but it took a long time to reach the meeting room.He knocked lightly on the door and entered softly after getting permission.Facing the door was a huge glass window, and the heavy curtains that were usually used to block the light were all drawn up, and all the dazzling light shone on the man, causing him to subconsciously stretch out his hand to block it.

Under the white light was a large solid wooden table, and a chair with only the back facing him, and the man knew that his supreme king was sitting behind him.

"Zhifeng is back?" He spoke in a low voice, but as gentle as water.

"Yes." Ye Zhifeng knelt on one knee, full of respect.

After that, the person behind the seat didn't speak again, and Ye Zhifeng just knelt on the ground with his head down.Gorgeous and expensive carpets were laid under the knees, but they still couldn't stop the cold and hard floor tiles from irritating the skin.The man seemed to have forgotten about Ye Zhifeng and let him kneel on the ground.Time was stretched infinitely, and Ye Zhiqiu felt that the soft carpet began to deteriorate, and every fiber turned into silver needles and pierced into his knees.

This was just a physical agreement, and what caused him the most pain was the oppression from the man's powerful aura.Like a blunt knife ruthlessly slicing across his heart, his breathing almost exhausted his strength.

Ye Zhifeng's expression began to permeate, and there were even thin beads of sweat on his forehead. He knew that he couldn't hold back that man, so he said with difficulty: "I know I was wrong."

The man remained silent.

"I..." Ye Zhifeng's other knee also hit the ground unbearably, he bent down stiffly, crawled and knelt down, enduring the pain, and said, "Master... I, I know I was wrong."

"Oh?" The man snorted softly and said, "You haven't called me that in years."

Ye Zhifeng's forehead rested on the ground, unable to figure out what the other party meant.He closed his eyes tightly, listening to the sound of the seat turning, but he didn't dare to look up.He knew that he should be punished.

The man on the seat with long hair like ink hangs obediently behind him. He presses one hand on the armrest, curls his index finger against his temple for support, and rests the other hand casually on his leg. His whole body is against the light, Only the outlines can be seen clearly.

But this outline is also almost perfect, without any redundant lines.

Ye Zhifeng waited for a long time but did not wait for the man to make any further moves. He raised his head tentatively, looked up at the man, his eyes only stayed for a moment, and then lowered his head again in shame.

"I shouldn't have rushed to see Rong Pu," Ye Zhifeng said, "otherwise he wouldn't have died."

The man still didn't speak, he closed his eyes as if he was asleep.

"But you've waited long enough!" Ye Zhifeng raised his voice, "I must bring back the finished NO.4, regardless of any sacrifices, and any... people!"

The man slowly opened his eyes. Unlike his dark body, he has a pair of blood red eyes.It would be too terrifying to put such eyes on others, but on him, they are extremely charming.

"Time is just a word to me." He said, "I just don't want you to run around outside. What if you get hurt?"

Ye Zhifeng was a little touched by the tone of a loving elder, and his previously excited voice weakened again, and he said, "I made you worry, I will never do this again in the future."

The man stood up, walked around the table and walked towards Ye Zhifeng.He was already tall, but Ye Zhifeng knelt on the ground again, unable to raise his head to look up at him.He is already used to looking up like this, and in every cycle of life, he looks up to this man like this.The man is like the bright moon that is out of reach in the sky, Ye Zhifeng can only kneel and submit in the dirt on the ground.

"Recently, I often think about things that happened many years ago." The man's palm gently pressed on the top of Ye Zhifeng's head, "A lot of them are about you."

"I?"

"Yes." The man smiled, "You don't seem to have changed much. Maybe it was because you were bullied too hard at the beginning, so you have always been stubborn when you grow up. Sometimes I regret it, maybe I shouldn't have changed when I found you again. Even get back the memories of your previous life, so you will be more cute? And you will be less obsessed?"

"Then how can I still be me?" Ye Zhifeng whispered, "I want to remember...remember everything about you."

The smile on the corner of the man's mouth deepened, he stroked the top of Ye Zhifeng's head with his hand, and turned his back to him.He was silent for a long time, and then said, "Are they coming?"

Ye Zhifeng knew who he was talking about, and replied: "I will try my best to stop him on the road."

But the man said: "Sooner or later we have to see each other."

"But……"

"Don't think too much." The man waved his hands, his tone relaxed and cheerful, "Between heaven and earth, why should I be afraid?"
