Hush!secret

Shang Zhongli moved his eyelids and broke free from the heavy shackles.

The light in the room was very dim, and a sleeping figure could be vaguely seen beside the pillow.

Shang Zhongli was stunned for a moment.

On the same pillow, the other person is very close to us, so close that our breath blends together.However, the other party's breathing is very shallow, so shallow that you almost suspect that he will disappear at any time, and this blending is just a beautiful dream.

Shang Zhongli stretched out his hand to touch the side of the other's ear, he could feel the warmth in the palm of his hand, he wanted to cry so hot.

"Wake up." Chu Rui opened his eyes for some reason, he seemed very tired, and his voice was only enough for the two of them to hear.

Shang Zhongli felt the dryness of his throat, and unconsciously moved his Adam's apple: "Yes."

"Would you like some water?" Chu Rui wanted to get up and pour water for Shang Zhongli, but just as she moved, she was dragged back by the big hands on her face, getting closer to Shang Zhongli instead .

Chu Rui was a little embarrassed, he was indeed tired and worried that Shang Zhongli would wake up in the middle of the night, so he simply slept next to him.Otherwise, with his personality, he would be absolutely embarrassed to take the initiative to sleep on the same bed with Shang Zhongli.

"I don't want to drink water," Shang Zhongli said, "Don't go..."

Sensing Shang Zhongli's uneasiness, Chu Rui quickly covered his palm: "Don't go, I'm right here."

Except for the fact that Shang Zhongli kept a straight face at the critical moment and when we first met, deliberately alienating others, after that, Shang Zhongli was always flamboyant and unrestrained in front of him, sometimes even a little shameless, which is rare like now , like a fledgling that has not grown up, its eyes are full of anxiety and nostalgia, but it is also sad and mature.

Chu Rui asked him: "Does it still hurt, do you want to sleep a little longer?"

Shang Zhongli shook his head: "It doesn't hurt at all, I just want to look at you."

He spoke very seriously, without any teasing in his words, Chu Rui was stunned, and stretched out his hand to Shang Zhongli's chest: "Why doesn't it hurt?"

"When I was 20 years old, I was forced to fight with a knife. I couldn't remember the number of injuries I suffered at that time..."

Chu Rui turned her head and looked at Shang Zhongli's injured finger. Even after recovering, it was still terrifying. His eyes slowly turned to Shang Zhongli's thin pajamas under the quilt.

When he changed Shang Zhongli's clothes, he actually saw the wounds on the other party's body. The place Shang Zhongli didn't want him to see at the beginning was almost devastated.He didn't know how he helped Shang Zhongli change his clothes. His brain was almost blank when he saw it, and his hands were shaking unbearably.

Chu Rui: "Now it doesn't have to be like before."

Shang Zhongli's lips moved, his voice was hoarse: "But my sword is gone... No, it never belonged to me."

Chu Rui's eyes shivered: "How could it be? We'll go find him and get him back."

He knew that what he said might not come true, and it was even unknown whether he could survive.

The air was silent for a while, and Shang Zhongli said again: "My parents never grew up with me by my side, and no one taught me. I learned Taoism and spells by myself by reading books. The 20-year-old At that time, I suddenly told me that I was going to go. I was not prepared at all. At that time, I took Shuo and slashed around desperately, and ran wherever there were monsters. If someone dies outside, at least someone will collect the body, maybe it will make the heartless parents regret it."

Shang Zhongli said to himself, Chu Rui felt very sad when he heard it.

The long-heard incident became a thorn in Shang Zhongli's heart.

"Now I feel like my life is a joke. My mind is messed up, A Rui, I can't calm down." Shang Zhongli choked up, took Chu Rui's hand and put it on his chest, "This is more painful than a wound .”

"Then let me touch it for you, okay?" Chu Rui covered her palm.

With the movement of crossing his hands, Shang Zhongli hugged Chu Rui into his arms.

Chu Rui heard Shang Zhongli's heartbeat overlapping with his breathing.

"I'm afraid that you will see my appearance, my ugly appearance..."

"how come?"

"Yes," Shang Zhongli took a deep breath, almost gnashing his teeth and said, "Besides the pain, I hate it. I want to know why Su Wen did this? What exactly does he want?"

Chu Rui thought of what he discussed with Xu Yao and Dai Xianhuai when Shang Zhongli was in a coma, so she asked, "I remember you said that you and your long-seen relationship are not close."

Mentioning the old news, Shang Zhongli's heart twitched again. He was afraid of scaring Chu Rui, so he suppressed the anger in his heart, stroked Chu Rui's back, and wanted to soothe his evil spirit through the warmth of his arms: "I really don't want to kiss you." , he hardly cared about me, and he only had frequent contact with me after my parents left. When I was a child, people around me said that I was talented and smart, and I was a material for academic methods. Now that I think about it, his appearance at that time may be contemptuous of me Take care!"

Chu Rui hugged him back and asked, "Then do you have any impression of your parents?"

"Of course, why do you ask that?"

Chu Rui said, "Do you and your parents look alike?" He told the truth without hiding it.

Shang Zhongli thought about it for a while, since he was a child, no one has ever talked about his appearance in front of him, but he has an impression of his parents' appearance: "My face looks like my mother, but it's really not like my father."

That's it... Just as I guessed... Chu Rui thought to herself.

He then told Shang Zhongli everything about those photos last night.

After the words fell, the person in front of him didn't make a sound for a long time, and Chu Rui didn't rush him. After a while, a voice sounded from above his head.

"what do you mean……"

"It means that originally you should look like your father, but you have inherited more of your mother's appearance, which is not at all like your father." Chu Rui told him her guess, "Su Wen is very fond of your father." Should be very concerned, right?"

Shang Zhongli nodded: "Yes, my dad used to go to Xiaoxilou when he came back from missions."

"That's right, your father inherited the appearance of a merchant boy, which is somewhat similar to the Shang general back then, so Suwen should love this son in name, but he doesn't care about you. Because you are almost nothing like General Shang."

Speaking of General Shang, about Su Wen's deformed secret, it was really disgusting, and Shang Zhongli felt uncomfortable all over.

Chu Rui continued: "Your sword should have been handed down by the ancestors of the merchants, but you said before that no one has been able to exert the power of that sword for a long time, even a senior expert a hundred years ago can only exert it Twelve out of ten swords."

Shang Zhongli: "Yes, Su Wen told me."

"Now we know that all the experts a hundred years ago were all lies made up by Su Wen, but you can use that sword. Have you ever wondered why?"

"I have thought about it, I think... because I am too powerful." Shang Zhongli said very seriously, not joking at all, he really thinks he is very powerful.

Chu Rui: "..."

For a while it was sad and melancholy, and for a while it was unabashedly proud and complacent.

……

Are the emotions of young people jumping so fast now?

Not kidding, Chu Rui continued: "When I was looking at the photos, I found a very strange point. It stands to reason that after so many years, you look like your mother again. It should have nothing to do with the appearance of the businessman's ancestors, but You look very similar to Shang Ze from more than 2000 years ago, especially the upper half of your face, which is exactly the same."

Shang Zhongli was stunned: "What do you mean? Why can't I understand?"

"I was thinking, do you have any connection with the ancestor of the businessman more than 2000 years ago? Don't you all have some sayings about past and present lives? Maybe you have some connection with that ancestor, so you can use Shuo. "

Shang Zhongli couldn't react for a while, and suddenly told him inexplicably that he looks like a person more than 2000 years ago, and no one can accept it all at once!

"Your guess is too outrageous..." Chu Rui meant that he was the reincarnation of Shuo Jian's master thousands of years ago?

Chu Rui raised her eyelids: "I have even more outrageous guesses."

Shang Zhongli swallowed: "Say it."

Many times in the past, Chu Rui has speculated wild and bizarre stories based on seemingly unrelated things, but in the end they all fit.His world is already like this, can it be worse?

"Do you still remember that it was mentioned in the diary that Su Wen was ordered by Emperor Wanli to find the legendary Queen Mother of the West to obtain the elixir of life?"

"Um……"

Chu Rui: "I suspect that Suwen did so many things just to revive General Shang. Didn't we see the story of Emperor Mu and Queen Mother Xi in the underground palace? On the mural on the wall at that time, Queen Mother West was surrounded by a group of beasts. Fan, I noticed at the time that one of the animals looked somewhat similar to myself, and now that I was absorbing spiritual energy, it was probably Su Wen's fault."

Shang Zhongli was surprised and said, "Qiji has something to do with the elixir?"

Chu Rui nodded: "Well, but I guess it is still impossible to completely revive General Shang by relying on himself alone. He is just a key to the elixir, and there are other things. After all, he can resurrect human flesh and bones, but he can only revive Shang. The body of the general, but his soul has long since dissipated. When I heard that the monsters in my body entered the illusion again, I must have discovered the secret of rebirth in the illusion."

Shang Zhongli took a deep breath: "It makes sense, Su Wen, where are the people now?"

"I ran away," Chu Rui said regretfully, "Xu Yao and Dai Xianhuai put up defenses outside, Su Wen couldn't break in, so he ran away."

"Damn it!" Shang Zhong said angrily.

Chu Rui comforted him: "Don't worry, we will definitely find him, and even if we can't find him, he will come again by himself."

He knew that the monster that Suwen released was obviously running towards him, and why did Suwen drag him into the illusion?There must be an unknown conspiracy in it.

Hearing Chu Rui's words, Shang Zhongli was shocked: "You don't want to use yourself as bait, do you? I don't allow it!"

Chu Rui smiled angrily: "How is it possible? I'm not that stupid, he will definitely find a way to catch me by himself, but you, you have to protect me!"

Shang Zhongli tightened his arms: "Of course, if I don't want my own life, I will protect you too!"

Chu Rui was taken aback.

Really... as expected, the emotions jumped so fast, why did they suddenly... suddenly feel so affectionate...

Chu Rui pursed her lips, feeling very happy in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face: "Your injury is healed? Yes, it doesn't hurt anyway."

"My injury...is an internal injury," Shang Zhongli frowned and began to pretend to be pitiful.

After such a back and forth, Shang Zhongli's aggressiveness at the beginning was swept away by Chu Rui's several speculations so quietly.

Chu Rui asked him, "So?"

Shang Zhongli coughed: "That's right, if...A Rui, you... take care of me more closely, feel sorry for me, touch me and hug me more..."

"Why," Chu Rui interrupted him, "my greeting is more effective than a thousand pieces of gold?"

Shang Zhongli raised his left eyebrow: "No~ the body and mind are happy, and the illness will be cured soon..." After saying that, Shang Zhongli leaned against Chu Rui again.

Chu Rui's face was leaning against Shang Zhongli's chest, and Shang Zhongli could see that light and stunning look as soon as he lowered his head.

If only... I could kiss...

Shang Zhongli was distracted, and slowly lowered his head...

"Sprout"

Shang Zhongli was stiff all over: "..."

Lifting the quilt, on the other side of the bed, behind Chu Rui, a pair of big round eyes were staring at him curiously.

Chu Rui looked innocent: "As soon as I left, I was so cold that I couldn't wake up, so I had to stay with it all the time." There was a hint of teasing on his face, "What did you want to do just now?"

Shang Zhongli's temples twitched twice, and he covered the quilt again: "It's okay, sleep!"

Unknowingly, the little self, in Shang Zhongli's mind, achieved the mission of the nth light bulb.

(Who can tell me where this tip is, I didn’t see it on the app, is it on the webpage ゛('◇')?)

There are a lot of people in the comment section who say they don’t understand that appearance. For example, Sansi looks like her mother, her mother looks like her grandmother, her grandmother looks like her grandmother, and her mother is a bit like her grandmother, but Sansi’s grandmother is not like her. Because atavistic inheritance has a great influence on a child's appearance genes.

Therefore, Shang Zhongli's father looks like his grandfather, and his grandfather looks like his grandfather, and so on, the more they are separated, the less they look like. The writing here is exaggerated, and they still look alike after hundreds of years and generations.

Generally, they won’t still look alike after hundreds of years. Everyone knows the creative effect. ε(*?ω?)_/? :? ☆
