Jiangshan side

Chapter 12

into the night.

【General Mansion·Buyuxuan】

Just as Mu Jingnian thought of going to the other side to see Guan Yixiao, he bumped into the person who came.He saw Guan Yixiao was about to rush over in a hurry, and when he saw him, he immediately burst into a smile, like a flower blooming in the wind, rushing towards him with the fragrance all over his body:

"Xiao Nian! I was looking for you~"

Mu Jingnian supported him, and said, "I just happened to be looking for Xiaoxiao."

Guan Yixiao took his hand, and said softly: "It's cool here, let's go inside and talk." He hurriedly pushed Mu Jingnian into the warm room, and closed the door thoughtfully, just like a brother who takes care of his younger brother .

The two were sitting around the stove in the house, Guan Yixiao thought for a while and pulled him to sit on the warm couch, pulled the stove over, covered Mu Jingnian's legs with the quilt, and said with a smile: "It's been a long time since we met. Xiao Nian spoke, I remember that when we were in Beijing, the two of us still lived in the temple, the wind was strong, and the fire had to be fetched by ourselves, so we had to hug each other to keep warm."

Looking at him, Mu Jingnian couldn't help slightly curling the corners of his mouth, drawing a picture of warmth on this indifferent face.

"Hey Xiaonian, where is your master surnamed Huo now?" Guan Yixiao asked curiously.

"Master has long traveled to immortality and is no longer in this world."

"Ah...then what have you been doing all these years?" Guan Yixiao touched his clothes: "Look at your clothes, they are all made of good materials. Where did you get the money when you were young?"

"Helping people kill to make money." Mu Jingnian replied flatly.

Guan Yixiao was taken aback: "You...are you that kind of hired assassin?"

"Anyway, as long as I kill someone, I can get a lot of money."

"You... who did you kill?"

Mu Jingnian thought for a while, and said: "There are rich merchants, there are Lord Marquis, and many more, I can't remember."

"You killed so many people...they are all human lives!" Guan Yixiao said in surprise.

"Master said that those human lives are worthless, and the damned will always die." Mu Jingnian replied.

"You never take human life seriously, and it's normal if you don't care." Guan Yixiao snorted, and then asked suddenly, "What about mine? If someone asks you to kill me, wouldn't I be worthless too? "

Mu Jingnian's eyes became serious: "You are different."

Guan Yixiao smiled and said, "Why is it different?"

Mu Jingnian paused word by word, "Xiaoxiao's life is very precious."

Guan Yixiao felt joy in his heart when he heard it, and seemed to be floating limply, he put his arms around the other party's arm and said: "You are so young, I know you like me, it is not in vain that I loved you so much before."

Mu Jingnian looked at him leaning on his shoulder, and said softly: "Xiaoxiao's life is more precious than mine."

Guan Yixiao giggled: "That's right, with such an alluring face like mine, my life is of course priceless, comparable to a supreme treasure!" He stroked his catkin-like face as he spoke, softly Asked: "Xiao Nian, do you think I'm beautiful?"

Mu Jingnian thought about it seriously, and said seriously: "Peerless."

"Liar," Guan Yixiao smiled brilliantly, "Then why did you still question 'you are beautiful' when you saw me that time?"

He imitated Mu Jingnian's tone, which made himself laugh.Mu Jingnian thought for a moment, then replied seriously:

"Because I'm blind."

"Where did you learn it, Xiao Nian?!" Guan Yixiao raised his head in surprise and looked at the always indifferent face: "Why are you so glib?!"

Mu Jingnian blinked innocently: "That's what you said."

Guan Yixiao froze for a moment, then remembered that he seemed to have said "Are you blind" to Mu Jingnian, but the other party still remembered it clearly.He smiled a little embarrassedly: "Xiao Nian actually remembered, I almost forgot."

"I remember everything Xiaoxiao said." Mu Jingnian said seriously.

Guan Yixiao was taken aback for a moment, seeing that his expression was not flirting or joking at all, she felt a strange tremor in her heart.He boasted that he had experienced countless love affairs and heard countless love words in the world, but he felt throbbing under Mu Jingnian's words that were not like love words, but better than love words.He thought to himself that this kid seemed indifferent, but he cared a lot about himself. I'm afraid that what he said about traveling around looking for people was also looking for himself—thinking of this, he felt warm in his heart.

He got closer to the other party, held his somewhat cold hand and said: "My dear boy, I never thought I could see you in this troubled time, and the friendship remains unchanged. It is really the most precious thing."

Mu Jingnian also held him tight after hearing this, and said: "After Master died, I traveled around all over the place just to find Xiaoxiao."

Guan Yixiao raised his head and smiled brightly: "Didn't you find it now?"

Mu Jingnian nodded: "Xiao Xiao, why don't we wander the rivers and lakes, in this chaotic Warring States period, staying in Ming City is really dangerous."

Guan Yixiao was stunned, shook her head and said, "I'm afraid it won't work."

"Why?"

Guan Yixiao fiddled with the red string and white beads on his hands, and said slowly: "I have fallen in love with General Baili for a long time, and I want to stay in the General's Mansion with him."

Mu Jingnian was also stunned, he paused for a moment, his eyes had strange waves, and after a while he said: "How long does Xiaoxiao want to stay?"

"Hmm..." Guan Yixiao rolled his eyes, and suddenly smiled, "Wait until the general responds to me."

Mu Jingnian frowned: "What if you don't respond?"

"Then~ just stay until I give up." Guan Yixiao said softly, raising his eyes to look at him: "Xiao Nian, if you don't like this Ming City, you can visit it first, and you can come to see me if you have time. .”

Mu Jingnian shook his head, his brows became tighter and tighter: "I want Xiaoxiao to be with me."

Guan Yixiao looked at him, and suddenly laughed: "It's not when I was a child. Could it be that I still need to take care of you when you are young? Your martial arts are so high, you can take care of me."

"If I can wander alone, why should I look for you."

Seeing his resolute expression, Guan Yixiao couldn't help blinking, and said coquettishly: "But I don't want to leave here these days."

"If you don't leave, I won't either." Mu Jingnian said indifferently.

Guan Yixiao rolled his eyes and smiled, "That's fine, Xiaonian will stay with me here, anyway, the general regards you as a friend, so he can entertain you as much as he wants."

Mu Jingnian looked at his face reflected by the candlelight, seductive like a fox, and the two Wang Qiushui looked at him, and felt that there was a slight ups and downs in his always indifferent mood.He nodded and said, "Then I'll stay here."

Guan Yixiao nodded, looked out of the sky and saw that it was not early, and said: "You are tired, Xiaonian? It is not early, otherwise how about we two sleeping together tonight?"

Mu Jingnian nodded upon hearing this, and then extinguished the candlelight with a wave of his sleeve, and the room was suddenly pitch black.

Guan Yixiao let out a chuckle: "Xiao Nian moves really fast."

The two lay down side by side and fell asleep on their feet, as if they cuddled up to each other when they were wandering in the past.Guan Yixiao helped him tighten the quilt, and said in a low voice: "You climbed mountains, caught fish, and killed people today, so you must be sleepy right now?"

Mu Jingnian looked at him with two pairs of black eyes, which looked like stars under the moonlight.He turned his head, looked at Guan Yixiao, and suddenly asked, "Can I sleep with Xiaoxiao in my arms?"

Guan Yixiao was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay."

As soon as he finished speaking, he hugged him tightly, resting his chin on his forehead, and then closed his eyes silently.

Guan Yixiao's heart fluttered strangely, he felt the other party's strong arms encircling him, but he didn't know what the other party was thinking - saying that he wanted to hug him to sleep, anyone who heard this would think wrong , but what Mu Jingnian said was serious. Could it be that he really only has brotherly affection for him?

From the few days he spent with Mu Jingnian until he found out the other party's identity, Guan Yixiao only felt that this person was indifferent by nature and regarded life as nothing. Sometimes it was very cruel to kill people without blinking an eye, but he didn't know much about the world, and sometimes he fell into disbelief. Like the ignorant child who was protected and cared for by himself in the past, he didn't have any experience of cloud and rain.And he to himself, maybe just a continuation of the attachment in the friendship more than ten years ago.

But Guan Yixiao is such a delicate person, one thought can be split into dozens of petals of random thoughts.At this moment, he changed his mind, would Mu Jingnian hide something from himself?Did he steal the red string and white beads?Could it be that what he really wanted was his own beauty and body?

Thinking of this, he twisted his body to tease Mu Jingnian, but when he looked up, he saw that he was already asleep.Seeing Mu Jingnian's brows stretched out, his breathing steady between his nostrils, he seemed defenseless, who would have thought that this is an assassin who kills without blinking an eye?

Guan Yixiao sighed silently, thinking that he would take him out for a walk tomorrow, and he would have to try more.
