But Qu Xiuran didn't shy away from it, instead he went up to meet him.

When you get close, you can smell a scent from Qu Xiuran's body. This smell has always been on Qu Xiuran's body since he was a child. Maybe it's body fragrance. If you get closer to him, it will float in the nasal cavity:

"I heard that the second senior brother has been in a lot of limelight recently."

His voice is also a little special when he speaks. He usually puts his voice very softly, and it looks cool with a little smile.

The little book boy was very vigilant, his little face was blushing, and he asked Qu Xiuran: "What's wrong?"

Qu Xiuran didn't give him a look, but still looked at Tantai'an:

"It seems that the second senior brother is no longer the illegitimate child who can be flattened and rounded by others. Now even the servant can blow his beard and stare at me."

With a wave of his hand, he asked his book boy to pull away the little book boy behind Tantai An, and before anyone could react, the little book boy had already been slapped twice, Shi Li struck hard, and the book boy immediately hung up There was no sound, no one dared to speak.

The little boy should have never experienced hardship. He just slapped him twice before tears fell, but he didn't dare to make a sound, and looked at Qu Xiuran in a daze.

"Second senior brother, do you feel distressed?"

Tantai'an was expressionless, as if the person being beaten had nothing to do with him.

Qu Xiuran never hides his dislike for a person. It seems to outsiders that his behavior is to vent his anger on Ji Tang, but anyone who knows him knows that he always finds various ways to dislike a person. provoke each other.

Tantai Anren is very tall. If you get close, you can just lower your head and see Qu Xiuran's head and neck. On the familiar neck, a small silver-white chain is exposed at this time, and it is outlined by the clothes below. Out of the thin waist.

Everyone knows that Qu Xiuran is good-looking, but almost no one knows that when Qu Xiuran raises his head slightly like this, there will be a red mole on his neck.

Different from the current appearance of rejecting people thousands of miles away, in the original book, that is, in the experience of Tantai An's previous life, Qu Xiuran often tied Tantai An to the bed, and then strangled Tantai An's neck, When he was out of breath, he gently stroked the corners of Tantai'an's mouth and neck, and the throbbing and suffocation danger came together from the seemingly invisible touch.

Qu Xiuran always appreciates with a little smile, and plays with people in his hands. Sometimes Tantai'an's eyes will be blurred, and sometimes he will frown and close his eyes to endure.

In the previous life, Tantai An never looked into Qu Xiuran's eyes, the only thing he could see at that time was a small red mole on his neck.

Qu Xiuran is not the same as before, now the most familiar red mole is also covered by a thin chain, as if he has erased all traces of the past.

Tantai An suddenly asked him in a low voice: "Is this given to you by Ji Tangsheng?"

Qu Xiuran originally thought that Tantai'an would want to fight with him, but when he heard the question, he didn't realize what the other party was referring to for a while, and just wanted to sneer at the corner of his mouth, Tantai'an suddenly raised his hand and stretched it out. Facing his neck, Qu Xiuran thought for a moment that this man was going to turn his back on him, so he grabbed Tantai'an's wrist in advance.

The latter put his hand down, his eyes were a little cold: "Master said that he doesn't want the disciples in the sect to get too close to the Ji family, you'd better do it yourself."

At this time, he still came to use Master to suppress him?Qu Xiuran sneered:

"Second senior brother is still the same as when he was a child, with a dignified appearance and a dog's power."

Being grabbed by one wrist like this, Tantai An still reached out to Qu Xiuran's neck with the other hand, but unlike what everyone thought, he did not move Qu Xiuran, but lifted the chain with his fingers. pulled out.

Touching the skin of his neck with his fingertips was more offensive than provocative. Tantai An didn't know what method he used, but he was able to freeze him in place in an instant, unable to move for a moment.

This person is indeed as the system said, and his cultivation base has improved a lot.

Seeing that Qu Xiu couldn't move anymore, Tantai An approached his ear again, and spoke in a voice that could be heard by two people:

"You are impatient and provoke too many people. It is only natural for Master to ask me to discipline you more."

"Ji Tangsheng is just a warning."

He lowered his head all the time, deliberately looming around Qu Xiuran's skin, Tantai An rubbed the necklace with his fingers for a moment before putting it back into Qu Xiuran's clothes, and carefully helped Qu Xiuran adjust the neckline.

It's just that this caring gesture didn't have any warmth, but was full of oppression and warning.

Qu Xiuran also looked up into the man's eyes, and said coolly, "It's not my turn to have an illegitimate son take care of me."

The latter's face was expressionless, and he didn't care about Qu Xiuran's verbal attacks.

At this time, the son of the Fang family also came, saw Qu Xiuran and Tantai An from a distance, and his footsteps obviously stopped.

This man's name is Fang Sizheng. The only memory in the original book is that he was very jealous. He often suppressed Tantai'an in the early days, and Tantai'an's mother died indirectly in his hands.

Fang Si was the villain who died worse than Qu Xiuran. Tantai Ande cut off the man's tongue, cut off his hands and feet, and then executed him Ling Chi.

In the original book, it was Fang Sizheng who framed Tantai An during the experience on the mountain this time, so Tantai An stumbled and fell into the forbidden area.

Qu Xiuran, who knew the plot in advance, did not want Tantai An to have such an opportunity, so as soon as Fang Sizheng showed up, he asked his book boy to take Fang Sizheng away, saying that he had something important to discuss in detail, and stopped him from the root cause. Tan Tai'an found the entrance to the forbidden area.

Fang Si was always respectful when facing Qu Xiuran, and followed without much doubt, and looked in Qu Xiuran's direction before leaving.

This is equivalent to indirectly affecting Tantai An's search for the entrance to the forbidden area.

Things were ready, Qu Xiuran brought three people up the mountain, two of them were guards arranged by his mother, and one was Sheng Yu.

It's not that he wants to share the chance with this little bastard, but Qu Xiuran feels that there must be many traps in such a forbidden place where no one sets foot. He needs a pathfinder, and an immortal pathfinder.

As Sheng Yu is the protagonist, it is naturally impossible for the plot to cause him to die for no reason. No one is more suitable than Sheng Yu.

It's just that it's not so easy to get this person up the mountain.

The illusions they usually experience are basically at the foot of the mountain and on the mountainside. The top of the mountain is a forbidden area, and the disciples of the sect are not allowed to enter casually. Some people say that the top monster nine-tailed white fox is bound there, and some people say that it is the place where the Hong family destroyed the family. Here, there are more than 3000 graves of the Hong family.

Even if everyone was curious about the forbidden area at the beginning, after more than a dozen people were kicked out of the division, no one was willing to step in over time.

It is even more impossible for a person like Sheng Yu to be led by the nose for no reason.

There is a layer of mist in the mountains, and the closer to the top of the mountain, the thicker it is, like a fairyland.

Just half way down the road, Shengyu from the rear sensed something was wrong, he stopped immediately, and suddenly asked Qu Xiuran: "What are you doing here?"

"This place is suitable for seeking personal revenge." Qu Xiuran spoke very casually, turned his head and smiled at Sheng Yu:

"But I'm in a good mood today, so I decided to give you a chance to escape."

His cultivation base is much higher than Sheng Yu's, not to mention he has two late Jindan monks with him, so it is not difficult to kill Sheng Yu.

Qu Xiuran's voice was soft, inexplicably ethereal in this illusion: "I suddenly want to try what it's like to shoot a hunter, and I want you to come and play with me."

"Run up the mountain now. If you don't get caught by me when you run all the way to the entrance of the forbidden area, I'll let you go back to Sheng's house."

"On the contrary, if you are caught by me, I will kill you and bury you in this deep mountain. It is estimated that no one will find you in ten or eight years."

Going back to Sheng's house was considered a temptation for Sheng Yu. If it was an ordinary person, he might have agreed immediately, but Sheng Yu didn't show much interest. Instead, he asked indifferently, "Are you afraid of being known by Master?"

This threat is not groundless.

If there is really one person in the sect who makes Qu Xiuran a little worried, it should be the only master Wei Chiyuan.

Yu Chiyuan had already reached the stage of crossing the catastrophe in the last family dispute, and he was one of the few masters who could compete with Qu Xiuran's mother. He didn't often show up in the sect. In the original book, he was a man who didn't care about world affairs Mysterious characters.

But even if he doesn't show up, he is still very famous in the cultivation world, and even Qu Xiuran's mother has to take him into consideration.

If it weren't for such a person who has been presiding over the peace among the aristocratic families, the Qu family would have already dominated the world of comprehension.

In the original book, after Qu Xiuran was seriously injured by Tan Tai'an, he went back to the sect to seek help from Yu Chiyuan. He originally thought that the other party would save his life through the friendship between master and apprentice, but he didn't expect that his cultivation base would be abolished by this master. Locked in a bird cage.

In the dream, Qu Xiuran couldn't see the man's face clearly, he only remembered that every time the master appeared, he would put his hand into the cage, lift his chin and ask him: "Do you know what's wrong?"

Those hands were cold and strong, and his jaw hurt from pinching.

At that time, Qu Xiuran suffered a serious illness because of his cultivation base being abolished. He was thinner and paler than usual, his neck was forced up, his chin was red, and there were tears in his eyes. "Master, I know my mistake, I really know my mistake, let me go out..."

Recalling his own ending in the original book, Qu Xiuran's expression sank completely. He pulled his horse forward and said, "You can try to inform us and see which of us will live longer."

Sheng Yu looked at him for a while, the menacing Qu Xiuran always raised his chin slightly, his arrogant personality matched his face very well.

Sheng Yu suddenly said: "The hunter may also become the prey."

Sheng Yu is like a wolf waiting for an opportunity, waiting for the opportunity to bite off the opponent's throat at any time.

Qu Xiuran sneered, "You can't do what you can."

Sheng Yu didn't answer his words, and didn't choose to go down the mountain, but walked into the thick fog as Qu Xiuran said.

When Sheng Yu disappeared, Qu Xiuran reined in and followed.

Sheng Yu, who has experienced in the mountains and forests since he was a child, is not as pampered as the children of other aristocratic families. In the deep mountains, he is extremely agile and can quickly figure out the surrounding situation. He knows where there may be traps and where the terrain cannot be set. , and therefore act more quickly.

Qu Xiuran and the other two walked faster and faster. In a blink of an eye, he was almost reaching the top of the mountain. Qu Xiuran still didn't see Sheng Yu's shadow, but the more he walked to the top of the mountain, the surroundings became darker, and there was a wave of flowers in the air. The fragrance is exceptionally strong.

He immediately warned the two people behind him: "Cover your mouth and nose."

As long as there is any abnormality in this kind of place, you need to be more vigilant. Fortunately, the people brought from his mother are by no means inexperienced, so the group can move on.

It's just that as the sky became darker and his vision became less clear, Qu Xiuran rubbed his eyes with his hands, and at the same time felt that most of his internal energy and aura had been lost in an instant.

"My lord, something is wrong here."

Qu Xiuran said impatiently: "Do you need to say it?"

Guard: "We have to leave quickly."

Qu Xiuran was still sitting on the horseback. Compared with these two older men, he seemed to have more ideas:

"What's the use of running away blindly? If you can't find the reason for losing your internal strength, it's just as dangerous no matter where you go."

At first, he just thought there was something wrong with the scent of the flower, and wanted to cover his mouth and nose, hold his breath and leave quickly, but this didn't stop their spiritual energy from dissipating.

It has nothing to do with the fragrance of the flowers, it seems to be more related to the terrain. Their inner strength may have been sealed up little by little since they went up the mountain, and their senses have been paralyzed, so they didn't realize it at all. It can be said that it is a warning to let them realize that their spiritual power is exhausted and retreat in spite of difficulties.

"Young master, since you have already guessed, going forward will only increase the danger, and Sheng Yu is likely to ambush us when we lose our spiritual power. The safest next step is to turn back."

Qu Xiuran snorted coldly: "You're dead-headed."

Even a guard could guess that their subconscious reaction to running back when encountering danger, couldn't Sheng Yu guess it?

It is more likely that this person has already turned a corner down the mountain, planning to ambush them on the way back.

"It can't just go on like this."

One of the two middle-aged men was older and impatient, and asked Qu Xiuran: "What can we do if we don't go down the mountain? We can't stay here forever. Without internal strength, we may encounter danger at any time."

……

As the sky darkened a little bit, Sheng Yu sat on the edge of the tree trunk, and he had been waiting here for an hour.

He grew up in the mountains since he was very familiar with every plant and tree. He discovered the secret of this peak of illusion when he walked halfway. The further up the mountain, the faster the loss of spiritual power.

But he didn't tell Qu Xiuran behind him.

He knew that Qu Xiuran had been following him all the time, and he also speculated that the other party would be anxious to go down the mountain after learning the truth, so he made a detour and arrived behind the three of them, squatting quietly on the only way they had to go back.

After about an hour, the first sound of horseshoes came, Sheng Yu finally opened his eyes and turned around. The horses that appeared in the distance were getting closer and closer, and the people on the horses were also clearly visible.

Qu Xiuran was wearing a black robe and a hat so he couldn't see his face clearly. There was only a guard behind him.

This group of people must have encountered some troubles, so that there were only one horse and two people left, and they fled very hastily.

Presumably because he was seriously injured when he went deep into the illusion, and lost two horses at the same time, Qu Xiuran could only bring one person back.

After confirming that there were only two of them, Sheng Yu twirled the ring on her thumb.

At the same time that Qu Xiuran's horse was crossing the path, Sheng Yu quickly jumped out from the hidden vegetation. At the same time, Qu Xiuran's horse's legs were tripped by the rope that popped out suddenly, and they fell to the ground with the horse behind them. In order to protect Qu Xiuran, the entourage fell out completely, and Sheng Yu made up for it twice.

This is a simple trap. Sheng Yu has known how to catch fast-running prey in the jungle since he was eight years old. He held down Qu Xiuran like a cheetah, squeezed the man's neck, and his fingers were so hard that he could almost immediately kill him. Unscrew it, because I was too eager to make a little laugh:

"caught you."

Feel the beating of the heartbeat.

Suddenly he was very curious about the expression on that face, maybe it was anger or humiliation, the look of his previous arrogance being shattered was really exciting, he seemed to be fascinated by the scent of flowers, and suddenly his heart beat rapidly.

Pulling off Qu Xiuran's hat, the face revealed was not what Sheng Yu imagined.

Inside was a strange middle-aged man, his face was plain and unremarkable, but after careful identification, he could recognize that it was one of the two guards brought by Qu Xiuran.

Qu Xiuran and the guards changed their clothes and got on the horse in order to attract Sheng Yu's attack.

Sheng Yu came back to his senses and realized that he had been deceived, and just about to turn around, the next moment, he suddenly felt a chill behind his back, Qu Xiuran's sword had reached his back chest, he turned around and caught it with a short knife, and the opponent's face was finally pierced. clear up.

Qu Xiuran was indeed different from usual, but he didn't have any emotions of fear and humiliation, but with a playful smile that was almost vile, bright and lively, he continued to press down the sword, the closer the blade was to Sheng Yu's neck, Qu Xiuran got closer to him.

Qu Xiuran and everyone Sheng Yu knew were different, he was beautiful, but also strong, full of vitality.

"What do you think you are, do you really think you can bite me back?"

The arm was close to Sheng Yu's chest. Even without the spiritual power, Qu Xiuran's skill was as fierce. The joy of being able to kill the enemy made him extremely excited. The sword blade left wounds on the neck and around the collarbone. His clothes were wet, but he still didn't stop.

Destroying a person like Sheng Yu and watching a person with a bright future end in his own hands seems to stimulate the darkness in Qu Xiuran's nature.

But Sheng Yu still had no fear, he just looked at Qu Xiuran, touched the man's finger on his neck, and could still laugh: "Are you willing to kill me? Don't you need me to help you guide the way?"

The fingertips were cold, and after touching them, they slid across the back of Qu Xiuran's hand.

Sheng Yu is shrewd and courageous. He has fully guessed his usefulness for Qu Xiuran, and he is not timid in the face of unknown forbidden places or death. It is naturally best to kill Qu Xiuran, but if he kills Qu Xiuran If he doesn't die, the other party will keep him because he is useful.

It is definitely not easy to deal with as a teenager, and it is almost as difficult as you can imagine when you are an adult.

Although there are dangers on the mountain, Qu Xiuran does not intend to give up. If he kills Sheng Yu and goes down the mountain at this time, it is equivalent to giving up the opportunity to Tantai An, and he will not be willing to die.

And the whole group has no internal strength, only a guy with a protagonist aura like Sheng Yu can be safer.

So he grabbed Sheng Yu's neck, lifted him up from the ground, and was caught by him again and again, saying that he was the protagonist.

Facing the wolf-like eyes of the other party in the dark, Qu Xiuran sneered:

"Good dog."

He took a collar from the entourage behind him, which was also given to him by Ji Tangsheng.

Ji Tangsheng usually likes to provoke Qu Xiuran, and sometimes, just like the last time in Ji Tangsheng's study, he took the initiative to tease Qu Xiuran.

Qu Xiuran never suppressed himself, once they were teased, the two would wrestle into a ball in the room, Ji Tangsheng's cultivation level was no better than Qu Xiuran's, even though Qu Xiuran didn't kill him, he was still held down The corner of his mouth was bleeding from the bed.

Afterwards, Ji Tangsheng turned around and asked someone to give Qu Xiuran a collar, and even nicknamed Qu Xiuran a little mad dog.

And this collar can lead the wearer to follow the owner of the collar all the time, unless there is help from outsiders, the wearer can't take things off by himself.

Ji Tangsheng sent someone to bring the things over, but Qu Xiuran casually threw them aside. This time he went up the mountain because he wanted to control Sheng Yu, so he suddenly remembered and brought this thing up.

Sheng Yu stretched out his hand and tugged at the collar twice. It was tied tightly, just stuck at the position of his Adam's apple. His hands and face were covered with blood, which was mixed with wet soil, making him look fragile and wild.

Qu Xiuran wiped his fingers slowly and asked the guards to bring Sheng Yu.

"Young master, do you still want to go up the mountain?"

"of course."

He has always been determined to go his own way, and there is no room for negotiation on what others want to say: "You take him, this is the big bait for us to pass through the forbidden area."

Qu Xiuran was delicate and expensive, and rode in front by himself, while Sheng Yu and the older guard followed behind.

In order to convince Sheng Yu that the group was in danger, Qu Xiuran deliberately asked another guard to stay halfway with two horses, creating the illusion that they were killed, and successfully deceived Sheng Yu.

I don't know if it has something to do with the protagonist's halo, but it went much smoother when I reached the mountain gate again.

He came earlier than Tantai An.

The system is still twittering in his mind: "Go back now, forcing things that don't belong to you will only lead to death, and the protagonist has a halo, once your actions affect the plot, the protagonist's halo will be activated Balance the plot."

"Don't blame me for not warning you, supporting characters who are affected by the protagonist's aura usually don't end well."

The system said a lot of things, and if it was any other villain, I'm afraid it would be apprehensive, but Qu Xiuran just walked towards the guardian's thatched hut while picking his ears and said:

"I have to find a way to get you out of my ears."

A token is required to enter the forbidden area. Qu Xiuran only needs to give the token to the guardian to avoid the layers of grievances surrounding the gate of the forbidden area and walk directly into the forbidden area.

"anyone there?"

He stood at the door and knocked three times, it was very quiet inside, no one answered him, so Qu Xiuran kicked open the door and let Sheng Yu go in first.

The thatched cottage looks very small from the outside, but the interior space is not small, but it is very dark and quiet, with only some light coming in from the dilapidated roof, it is difficult to see everything around, and Qu Xiuran didn't notice the corner until his eyes got used to the darkness. People squatting inside:

"Yu Chiyuan is really a stingy old guy. For such a big sect, the place where the guardians of the forbidden area live is even worse than my kennel."

Qu Xiuran stood at the door with his arms folded. He didn't even want to step into such a dirty place, and the people inside didn't seem to care about his arrogance and disrespect. As a guardian, the other party was just doing business.

There was a scar on the face of the guardian. Maybe it was because no one could speak for too long. Occasionally, when he spoke, the voice of the guardian was dry and unpleasant: "Bring your tokens here."

Before going up the mountain, Ji Tangsheng once said that as long as you give the token to the guardian, you can pass through the forbidden area.

"Here, take it in."

Qu Xiuran threw the token to Sheng Yu, and now he is not afraid of Sheng Yu's tricks, but just opened the door wider to let the light from outside into the thatched cottage.

The guardian asked Sheng Yu to put things on the stone pillar at the back, where there was a hole corresponding to the size of the token.

Qu Xiuran suddenly noticed that the spirit guard was looking at him, a light flashed in his eyes on that distorted face due to scars, and Qu Xiuran, who realized something was wrong, retreated suddenly, but the guy was very fast, and he arrived in a blink of an eye From behind him, the two guards around him were thrown out in just two strokes.

This guy has a lot of knowledge, and he was not affected by the forbidden area, and he didn't lose his spiritual power. In the invisible place in the dark, there was a long chain dragging behind the guardian, and it made a rattling sound when he moved.

Although this man is a mountain guard, he was locked in a thatched house by chains.

Qu Xiuran blocked the opponent's attack with his sword. He struck very hard, and the other hand directly grabbed the opponent's sky cap, leaving a blood mark, but the opponent didn't care, his hand seemed to have a target, and dug into his heart. go.

Only then did Qu Xiuran notice what the man was holding in his hand. There was a huge circular hole in the middle of the weapon, and the blade was around the circle.

This strange weapon might be used to dig out the heart, and it was too late to block it with his hand. At this moment, there was more resentment than fear in his heart.

Why Tantai An can get a chance, why Sheng Yu who goes into the house will not be attacked, he has to match these people.

He will not let the person who wants him to die feel better.

Qu Xiuran didn't even block the opponent's attack anymore, but picked up the dagger he snatched from Sheng Yu's body, and poked at the man's eye socket.

"Go to hell! Go to hell!" The other party was caught off guard by Qu Xiuran's stab, but he didn't realize that blood gushed out, making Qu Xiuran's face.

The pleasure of revenge made Qu Xiuran smile in the blood, like a ghost.

At the same time that the man's eyes were pierced, the weapon that was originally pressed on Qu Xiuran's chest did not penetrate Qu Xiuran's chest. The pendant Ji Tangsheng gave him seemed to form a protective layer around his body, even if his clothes were worn Torn through, the skin under the torn fabric remained unscathed.

During the battle, the physical strength was exhausted too quickly, but fortunately, the man temporarily diverted his attention because of the pain, and Qu Xiuran wanted to get out of the room.

But before he stood up, a figure suddenly appeared behind him, lifted him up and led him outside the door.

Qu Xiuran turned back to pat the man's head with his good hand, but the latter was stronger than him, so he dodged in an instant, twisted his wrist, and at the same time put a short knife on Qu Xiuran's face. On the neck, taking advantage of the gap when he was unable to move, he pushed the person onto the tree with great force, and there was a thud, as long as Qu Xiuran took a step forward, his throat would be cut.

The man who held him was still wearing a collar around his neck.

"You'd better think about the consequences of killing me." Qu Xiuran said calmly, raising his head to avoid the blade while raising his hand, looking into Sheng Yu's eyes in the dark environment.

Those light brown eyes can only be seen clearly from this distance, clear but imposing.

Sheng Yu didn't say a word, and didn't stop his strength because of Qu Xiuran's words. Instead, he intensified and trapped the person between his body and the tree trunk. He lowered his head slowly, and hit Qu Xiuran with his cool breath. With force, he pinched Qu Xiuran's neck tightly with his fingers. The strength of his hand almost broke the human bone.

It seemed to be revenge for the humiliation of Qu Xiuran for so many days.

This dude's skin is very soft, and he can feel his pulse when he is squeezed tightly. Qu Xiuran, who raised his chin, is like a fox that has lost the ability to attack. Peeling cramps.

Sheng Yu's blade moved down slowly, and picked up Qu Xiuran's clothes, exposing his collarbone and skin. It was very cold in the cave, and Qu Xiuran couldn't help but flinch. He warned again:

"Sheng Yu, I will really kill you."
