  The story the abbot told was so lengthy that when Xuan Ye walked out of the temple, he only saw the sky full of stars.

  The little hair ball was lying on his shoulder, eyes half closed, wondering what he was thinking.

  Water drops fell on the tip of my nose, giving it a cool touch.

  Wei Chengze raised his head, looked at the sky without many dark clouds, and shook his ears in confusion.

  Xuan Ye remained silent and did not speak, feeling a little more depressed than usual.

  He couldn't judge the right or wrong of what the people in the town did, nor could he condemn the mages who had done their job. He didn't even know why he felt such anger, but if he had experienced the same thing as Tang Nian The same thing happened -

  Xuan Ye's steps suddenly stopped, and when he looked at the young man who appeared in his arms out of thin air, his face turned dark. But the little monster in human form didn't notice Xuan Ye's expression at all, and nuzzled his neck affectionately. He raised his head, his clear eyes reflecting the night filled with stars.

  "Ye," his red lips curved slightly, with a hint of excitement in his tone, "That Tang Nian did not abandon his wife."

  "-Even after knowing that she was a monster."

  Hearing Wei Chengze's words , Xuan Ye was stunned for a moment involuntarily.

  After all, he has been in the world for such a long time. Although Wei Chengze still does not have a deep understanding of many things, he is already clear enough about the world's attitude towards monsters.

  "You..." After looking at each other for a long time with Wei Chengze, Xuan Ye frowned, "Don't just transform outside."

  Fortunately, it was already dark now, there were not many pedestrians on the road, and the two of them were in a relatively close location. Unfortunately, the scene just now was not seen by others.

  Wei Chengze: ...

  At this time, shouldn't we just follow his words? The excitement I had been brewing was gone!

  "Put on your clothes." Xuan Ye said, ignoring Wei Chengze's slightly dissatisfied expression.

  "...Oh." reluctantly responded, Wei Chengze released his hand from Xuan Ye's neck, and stood obediently to let him get dressed.

  The slightly cool fingertips traced Wei Chengze's fair and delicate skin, Xuan Ye's eyes darkened slightly. Noticing the change in Xuan Ye's eyes, Wei Chengze's body suddenly stiffened, and he immediately grabbed the clothes in his hand and took a few steps back: "Didn't he say that he was going to find Tang Nian next?!"

  Although he already knew Where Tang Nian is now, if the two of them delay any longer, maybe the other party will leave, right?

  Seeing Wei Chengze put on his clothes stiffly, Xuan Ye sighed with regret: "Let's go."

  Wei Chengze: QAQ

  always feels that since a certain incident, this person has been opened in some strange way. Like a switch, you can enter a certain state anytime and anywhere.

  But...well, I don't hate it either.

  After jogging a few steps to keep up with Xuan Ye's pace, Wei Chengze turned his head and looked at the man next to him who was much taller than him, curled his eyes and showed a sweet smile.

  After walking side by side with Xuan Ye for a while, Wei Chengze couldn't help but rub against him, and then rub against him again, until their bodies were almost touching, he stretched out his hand and gently held Xuan Ye's hand. hands, fingers intertwined.

  "Hey, Xuan Ye," he didn't look at the people around him, but looked ahead intently, "I won't die." His voice was very soft, but extremely firm, "Absolutely not."

  After a long while, Xuan Ye Yecai responded softly: "Yes." When the wind blew, the last sound disappeared, and only the small insects dormant in the grass were still chirping.

  The address the abbot told Xuan Ye before was a barren mountain not far from the temple. Ever since someone almost died when entering the mountain, few people have gone up there again. There is a lonely tomb at the top of the mountain. There is no writing on the stone tablet standing in front of the tomb. The pale moonlight shines on it, showing a bit of desolation.

  The man in a blue shirt was sitting under the tree in front of the grave. He was holding a wine glass filled with wine in one hand and sipping it happily. Sensing the movement coming from behind, he paused slightly, seemingly without much surprise: "You are here."

  He put down the wine glass in his hand and turned around, his eyes paused slightly on the hands of the two of them intertwined. Then, as if he didn't see anything, he bowed to the two of them: "I'm Tang Nian, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

  His polite appearance was like that of a scholar with a good family background, making it impossible to distinguish him from others. The cruel murderer who performed the murder and autopsy. He tilted his head slightly, his silky black hair falling from his ears, and his voice, like his own, had an inexplicable sense of tranquility: "Would you like to have a drink together?"

  "Monks are not allowed to drink." Xuan Ye's voice was silent. There were so many ups and downs that one couldn't tell what he was thinking.

  "Really?" Tang Nian smiled, not paying too much attention to this, "That's really a pity."

  "Then, skipping those useless steps, I'll get straight to the point. This master..." He looked at Looking at Xuan Ye, the smile on his face was still extremely gentle and decent, "You're here to kill me, right?"

  Tang Nian's tone was exceptionally soft, as if what he was talking about was not a matter of life and death, but the sweet dream he was looking forward to. Similar.

  Xuan Ye couldn't help but frown when he saw this, feeling a little surprised.

  He could see that Tang Nian was not as strong as him - there was nothing surprising about this. If Tang Nian had the ability to compete with him, he would not have used drugs to make Wei Chengze and Zhang Teng lose their minds. Choose to run away. Moreover, if he saw it correctly, Tang Nian still had injuries that had not yet healed.

  "On the way out of that village, I met that mage - I remember his surname was Xu?" Tang Nian's next words confirmed Xuan Ye's view. He sighed, seeming a little regretful, "It's a pity. , I still couldn't kill him, but I was seriously injured."

  He finally escaped, but he could only hide in this disgusting place.

  Tang Nian noticed Xuan Ye and Wei Chengze on the first day they came to town. Originally, he wanted to leave before the other party noticed him, but after becoming aware of the relationship between Wei Chengze and Xuan Ye, he changed his mind.

  Isn't it interesting that a mage who is supposed to eliminate monsters falls in love with monsters?

  "For the sake of someone who has fallen in love with a monster, can you let me go?" Before Xuan Ye could answer, Tang Nian shook his head and said, "Even if I say this, it's impossible to get approval. ..." He looked at Xuan Ye with a gentle smile, "So -"

  "Can you bury me and Xiaoyu together after I die?"

  The wind blew and rolled up the dead leaves that fell on Tang Nian's shoulders. He raised his head and flew away into the distance.

  "Your body," he frowned and stared at Tang Nian for a long time. Xuan Ye suddenly said, but not in answer to his question, "You can't last long, can you?"

  After all, Tang Nian was just an ordinary person at the beginning. After taking the demon pill, it was already a miracle that he didn't explode and die on the spot. Not to mention that after that, he used all kinds of cruel methods. The method is to kill people in order to collect resentment. Although he looked normal on the outside, he was actually a mess on the inside. Even if Xuan Ye doesn't take action, after a while, he himself will collapse and be destroyed.

  The so-called self-destruction is nothing more than that.

  "As expected, I can't hide it." Tang Nian didn't seem to care about it. He smiled, and his tone was as brisk as if he was talking to a friend, "That's why I didn't waste time on escaping." He paused. A look of joy suddenly appeared on his face, "It's a good thing I met you in the end." He didn't want the person who killed Xiaoyu to dig up her grave after he died.

  "If you feel like you can't make the move, you might as well wait a little longer... um..." Tang Nian looked down at the Zen staff passing through his chest. He coughed twice and a wry smile appeared on his face, "It's really nothing. No mercy..."

  "You hurt him." Xuan Ye didn't show any emotion at all because of Tang Nian's performance. His indifferent expression made people wonder whether he had human emotions.

  But what happened to such a seemingly cold-hearted person were words that were completely inconsistent with his appearance.

  Of course Tang Nian knew what Xuan Ye was talking about. In fact, when he saw Wei Chengze next to Xuan Ye in the town, he was really surprised for a while. After all, his initial views were not much different from Zhang Teng's.

  "That's really... cough... I'm sorry..." Tang Nian apologized without much sincerity. He looked at Xuan Ye in front of him and suddenly laughed, "Do you believe it? The ending between you two will not be better than ours. So good..." The next words were swallowed up by the blood rising from his throat.

  Xuan Ye withdrew his Zen staff and looked at Tang Nian who had fallen down due to unsteady standing. There was no expression on his face, as if the scene in front of him was not worthy of his too much attention. On the other hand, Wei Chengze, who was on the side, looked at Tang Nian, who was losing his breath a little bit, and was a little stunned, unable to recover.

  "Are you scared?" Noticing Wei Chengze's appearance, Xuan Ye turned to look at him. Wei Chengze, who was drawn back his attention, shook his head: "No, it's just a bit..." He lowered his head and thought seriously before saying the next half of the sentence, "Sad."

  He spelled it out like that. He sacrificed everything he had, but in the end, he didn't even kill a single enemy.

  The ending that was doomed from the beginning is so despairing that it makes you want to cry.

  "We won't be the same as them, right?" Wei Chengze looked up at Xuan Ye, with a slight worry in his eyes. "Well," reaching out to rub the top of Wei Chengze's hair, Xuan Ye   whispered

  , "No."

  ——————————————————————

After being buried with his wife, Wei Chengze and Xuan Ye left the town without going to Lanshan Temple to say goodbye to the abbot, and headed to Beishan together as they had agreed before.

  Perhaps Tang Nian's story was too sad. After that, Wei Chengze couldn't lift his spirits for many days. The cat ears on his head drooped, looking listless.

  Sighing, he took Wei Chengze into his arms. Xuan Ye gently bit the tip of his ear and said, "Let's not go to Beishan."

  "...Eh?" After hearing Xuan Ye's words, Wei Chengze I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, wondering why he said such words, "Why?"

  "It's too dangerous." Xuan Ye rubbed Wei Chengze's belly, which had recently gained some fat, and replied in a low voice.

  His original intention was to return to his master's door before living in seclusion in the mountains, but after careful consideration, he suddenly realized how inappropriate this approach was.

  Growing up in Beishan Temple, Xuan Ye knew very well the attitude of the people there towards monsters - before meeting Wei Chengze, he himself was one of them.

  Even if Wei Chengze does not follow him into the temple, there is no guarantee that no traveling monk will discover his identity. There are too many people in Beishan Temple who are much higher in cultivation and strength than him. And if Wei Chengze's identity is discovered, there is no need to say more about what will be waiting for them.

  He didn't dare to hope that he alone could change those people's deep-rooted thoughts.

  "Let's go to the mountain where we met." After thinking for a while, Xuan Ye said.

  "Okay!" Still nodding without any hesitation, Wei Chengze narrowed his eyes, "As long as it's Ye's decision!" He paused and added, "And we can still see each other. Brother Zhang!"

  Xuan Ye: ...

  The good mood I felt after hearing the first half of the sentence disappeared in an instant.

  Looking down at the undisguised joy in Wei Chengze's eyes, Xuan Ye felt the dissatisfaction in his heart growing more and more. He squeezed Wei Chengze's palm and said in a voice not much different from ordinary ones: "You like Zhang very much?" " Teng?"

  "Of course!" Not noticing the danger in Xuan Ye's tone, Wei Chengze clapped his fingers enthusiastically and counted Zhang Teng's merits, "Brother Zhang is so majestic, powerful, and knowledgeable. He gives people a very reliable feeling, and he is not at all...well..."

  Lowering his head to seal the lips that uttered the words that displeased him, Xuan Ye untied Wei Chengze's hand with one hand. The belt penetrated into the hem of his clothes. Rough palms rubbed his waist and abdomen, and Wei Chengze's body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

  "Wait... wait, Ye...!" Turning his head to avoid Xuan Ye's kiss, Wei Chengze's breathing became rapid, "This is on the carriage!"

  "Yeah," Wei Chengze's weak voice was easily restrained. After struggling, Xuan Ye pressed the person on the soft pedal and said in a hoarse voice, "So don't shout too loud, or you will be heard."

  "... Wu..." Holding Xuan Ye's arm tightly with both hands, Wei Wei Chengze endured the actions behind him and tried his best to suppress the sobs in his throat. The look of the red eyes at the end of his eyes due to restraint made people want to bully him even harder.

  When Xuan Ye was finally willing to let Wei Chengze go, he could no longer move a finger. The coachman who had been waiting outside for a long time looked at Wei Chengze who was being carried out of the car with a strange expression. He didn't know. What are you thinking about. The little monster, who had fully understood what shame was, wanted to bury his whole body in Xuan Ye's arms. On the contrary, Xuan Ye's serious look made it impossible for people to imagine what he had just done.

  Wei Chengze bit Xuan Ye as if to vent his anger, and deliberately polished his teeth. So when he got to the inn room, he experienced some kind of unspeakable punishment again.

  Wei Chengze: Fall! I can't live this day!

  5438: Haha.

  ...If you have the ability to say such things, don't flirt with me if you have the ability! When he can't see that Wei Chengze did it on purpose? !

  And that Xuan Ye, even if he knew Wei Chengze was a monster, could he still be a little more restrained? No matter what, this guy still looks like a minor, okay? !

  5438, who was completely unable to complain about these two people, maintained a "==" expression, watching Wei Chengze blast Xuan Ye into the next room, and just wanted to get a new pair of titanium alloy dog ​​eyes for himself.

  ...What the hell, the dog's eyes were blinded not long after they were replaced, okay? !

  5438 feels that this world is used by Wei Chengze to show affection.

  After staring at Wei Chengze who was lying on the bed, groaning and rubbing his waist for a while, 5438 suddenly asked: "Host, are you really going to live in seclusion in the mountains with him for the rest of your life?" "

  What," Wei Chengze paused in rubbing his waist and raised his eyebrows slightly, "No?"

  "Of course!" 5438 quickly denied Wei Chengze's words, as if he was afraid that if he spoke slower, Wei Chengze would be offended. It seems like a misunderstanding.

  Of course there is nothing wrong with doing this, he is just... a little curious. After all, before this, Wei Chengze had always chosen to die in various ways to deepen the impression of the protagonists on him. This was the first time that he had decided to spend his life together like this.

  ——Sure enough, only Xuan Ye is different?

  But what's the point?

  In the end, one has to leave alone.

  Even if Wei Chengze finally chooses to stay in this world, the long life of a monster will only make him watch Xuan Ye age and die.

  ——What's the point?

  It would be nice if... Wei Chengze was just an ordinary person. In that case, Xuan Ye, with his cultivation, would definitely live longer than him; in that case, Wei Chengze would not have to watch Xuan Ye die in front of him.

  This is the first time, 5438 hopes Wei Chengze will die soon.

  Even now he is still not sure whether Wei Chengze is sincere towards Xuan Ye.

  5438 felt that his mind was too biased. Obviously, the worst sufferers every time are the protagonists who were deceived by Wei Chengze, but in the end, it was Wei Chengze who played a role that did not exist that he felt sorry for. It was clear that Xuan Ye was the one who was cheated by Wei Chengze. He is a victim in trouble, but he hopes that Wei Chengze will not suffer some pain that may not matter to him at all.

  "Let me tell you," Wei Chengze suddenly spoke, interrupting 5438's thoughts, "System, do you like me?"

  5438:...!

  There was a feeling that something that had been covered up in every possible way was suddenly exposed. 5438's thinking seemed to be short-circuited. There was a moment of blankness, and then it slowly started to operate.

  "Ho..Host, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand you!" As soon as the words came out, 5438 couldn't help but want to slap himself - this is not the case What is the three hundred taels of silver here? ! Even if your excuse is so pale, you still stutter?

  No, no, no, there must be something wrong with the operation of the system! This is not a stuttering caused by being too overwhelmed! Absolutely not!

  "Really?" After saying something with unclear meaning, Wei Chengze stopped worrying about the issue. After yawning lazily, he closed his eyes and went to sleep, without putting the matter aside at all. The look in his heart made 5438 feel extremely hurt.

  5438: I am just blind to fall in love with this guy!

  "Don't talk like you have eyes." Wei Chengze, who originally thought he was asleep, slowly added a stab, and 5438 suddenly fell to the ground.

  According to the general routine, 5438 should run away crying at this time, and then decide whether to chase him based on Wei Chengze's mood. However, the sad reality is - this miserable baby is bound to Wei Chengze of! At this time, I didn't even have a place to hide, I could only look at Wei Chengze who was really asleep, and silently stabbed his villain in my heart.

  So, it was because he had no eyes that he fell in love with such a scumbag, right?

  ...Although he couldn't be sure whether he liked it or not.

  Unable to help but sigh inwardly, 5438 watched Wei Chengze's sleeping face all night as usual.

  Due to the change of their original plan, it was of course impossible for Xuan Ye and Wei Chengze to continue walking in the direction of Beishan. After two days of thinking, Xuan Ye finally decided on the most prosperous route. He wanted Wei Chengze to see more of the world.

  Of course, Wei Chengze would not have any objections to this. The two of them basically played along. Occasionally he encountered a few evil monsters, and Xuan Ye got rid of them easily, but for those monsters that did not hurt anyone, he just pretended not to notice them.

  It is worth mentioning that at a market in a certain city, Wei Chengze found a monster in the form of a carp. He stood in front of the other party's stall and stared at the monster for a long time, almost frightening the other party. Come on, as soon as Wei Chengze left, he quickly packed up his things and ran away, as if he was afraid that if he moved a little slowly, Wei Chengze would pounce on him and devour him. This made Wei Chengze a little depressed. , he also tried hard to suppress his appetite and wanted to make friends with the other party.

  After walking like this for more than six months, the two finally returned to the vicinity of the original village.

  When he left, Wei Chengze couldn't even hide his ears well, but now he can't show it easily. At that time, Wei Chengze was still ignorant about everything in the world, but now he is well versed in the ways of the world. Comparing the two It really makes people feel like they are in a trance.

  But fortunately, this little monster is still by his side.

  Thinking this, Xuan Ye's eyes softened and he reached out to rub Wei Chengze's head.

  Rubbing Xuan Ye's palm affectionately as always, Wei Chengze narrowed his eyes in enjoyment.

  Of course, it would be better if a certain name didn't always come out of his mouth.

  "I wonder what's going on with Brother Zhang recently. I didn't tell him about Tang Nian before. Is it possible that he hasn't come back yet?" Wei Chengze frowned with a distressed expression on his face, which made Xuan Ye couldn't help but think in the dark. On the list, Zhang Teng's name was heavily stroked a few times.

  Well, it would be better to let Wei Chengze go down the mountain less in the future. If it doesn't work, let him have no strength to go down the mountain.

  Turning his head to look at Wei Chengze, Xuan Ye's eyes were dark.

  For some reason, when Xuan Ye looked at him like this, Wei Chengze couldn't help but tremble, and subconsciously quickened his pace.

  Seeing that the original mountain village was right in front of him, Wei Chengze couldn't help but have a look of joy on his face.

  Suddenly, he caught sight of something out of the corner of his eye. The expression on Wei Chengze's face froze and his movements slowed down.

  That's...blood?
