Chapter 34
Jiang Li heard the words and asked, "Do you remember the past?"
Shen Jiyun shook his head: "I don't remember."
Regarding the Tianya Haijiao Tower, his memory is also blank, and he can't remember anything.If the turtle hadn't mentioned it, until now, he didn't know that he had been here.
Jiang Li: "Then how do you know...?"
Shen Jiyun: "Master Li Changshu and I came from the same family and disappeared inexplicably a hundred years ago. Although I don't remember Tianya Haijiaolou, I still remember that we came to South China Sea together at that time."
Jiang Li's eyelashes fluttered, thoughtfully.
In their memory, this piece about Tianya Haijiaolou is missing.
If no one reminds, it will always be forgotten in the corner.
But the same thing is, as long as a small fuse, you can find the violation in the minutiae.
Jiang Li: "Then, Li Changshu might know something."
The two looked at each other, made a decisive decision, and went out to find Li Changshu.
Push open the courtyard door.
A gust of wind blows.
Jiang Li stopped in his footsteps and looked forward.
When I came here, there was a verandah outside, decorated with colorful flowers.
But now as soon as he turned around, the surrounding area was covered by a layer of white mist, and he couldn't see anything clearly.
Jiang Li threw half of the lotus in his arms into it.
The white mist surged, and the lotus pod was submerged in an instant, without even making a sound.
Shen Jiyun put his hand on Jiang Li's shoulder, the cuff of his right hand fluttered, and a gust of wind blew past.
The wind was loud, but the white mist remained motionless.
Jiang Li frowned, and tried to disperse them.
But no matter what method is used, it is like a mud cow entering the sea, and it will not cause any waves.
He pondered for a moment, then simply walked into it, wanting to find out.
But before he could take any action, the palms on his shoulders tightened, stopping his steps.
Looking back, Shen Jiyun's brows and eyes were still stern: "I'll go."
Jiang Li didn't seem to understand the meaning of these words, he tilted his head: "Huh?"
Shen Jiyun softened his tone: "I'll just go find Li Changshu, you wait for me here."
Maybe Jiang Li's weak and deceitful appearance is too deeply rooted in people's hearts, even if the disguise is completely broken now, he still subconsciously put him in the position of the protected person.
Seeing that the figure was about to pass by, Jiang Li grabbed the hem of his clothes with quick eyesight and quick hands: "Wait—" he followed, "Let's go together."
Shen Jiyun paused.
Jiang Li raised a smiling face: "The situation is unclear now, and I don't know what will be encountered in the white mist. Why don't we go together, so we can have someone to take care of us."
Shen Jiyun: "...Okay."
Jiang Li stretched out his hand.
Shen Jiyun looked down.
The young man's palms were already fair, but now under the light of the white mist, they shone like white jade.In particular, the fingers are slender, and the nails are transparent and round, which inexplicably makes people want to hold them in their hands and enjoy them.
His pupils sank.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Jiang Li still softly said: "You hold me, so that I don't get separated."
Shen Jiyun's Adam's apple rolled up and down, but in the end, without saying anything, he stretched out his hand to take Jiang Li's hand into his palm, and walked straight forward.
Hands clasped.
One side is soft and white, and the other side is wide and thick.
It seems to be an incomparably good match.
The two walked shoulder to shoulder into the white mist together.
The white mist surged, causing waves of shock.
When you step into it, there is a vast expanse of whiteness in front of you, and you can't see anything clearly.
After walking a certain distance, a white light flashed in front of him, and it suddenly became clear.
After going around in circles, when he looked up, he returned to the gate of the courtyard.
The gate of the courtyard was opened, and the leaves fell quietly, as if mocking them for wasting their time here.
Jiang Li: "..."
Shen Jiyun said: "It's a formation."
Jiang Li: "I think so too."
The Tianya Haijiao Tower is carried on the back by a turtle. It looks like a small size, but you can feel the vastness after entering.
There must be various formations arranged inside, so that the real ones can be confused with the real ones, confusing cognition.
If they don't break the formation, they can only stay here.
Jiang Li took the lead and said, "I'm not good at formation."
Shen Jiyun looked over: "Me too."
Both fell silent.
The formation is intricate and complicated, and those who are not good at it may find it difficult to find a way to undo it throughout their lives.
But it's not really incomprehensible.
In addition to following the rules and following the fixed method to crack, there is another method, and that is... to break through the formation violently.
Jiang Li's fingers moved, eager to try.
As a sword cultivator, Shen Jiyun naturally thought of this method, but he frowned and disagreed: "It's too much movement."
The person who built the Tianya Haijiao Tower must be an expert in using arrays.
That being the case, it must not be as simple as just one formation. If you want to set up a formation, it must be connected from end to end.
It is simple to just break through the formation in front of you, but if you move your whole body by pulling a hair, it will definitely cause a huge commotion. It is not a small thing to destroy the entire Tianya Haijiao Tower, and it is very likely that you will be involved in the endless formation.
Jiang Li's heart also calmed down. After thinking for a while, he gave up this idea.
If the Tianya Haijiao Building is really destroyed, then you will never be able to climb to the tenth floor.
No one knows what he lost here.
Since he couldn't break through the formation, he couldn't leave the courtyard, so Jiang Li didn't try any more, but went back to the courtyard, waiting to see what kind of medicine was sold behind the Tianya Haijiao Building.
Cross the rockery pond.
Jiang Li suddenly stopped in his tracks, and said angrily, "Why are you still here?"
Originally, he thought that the white mist was weird, and he didn't know what was hidden in it, and it might be useful for Shen Jiyun, so he spoke softly.
There is no need to take risks if you play first, and if you don't need it, he will naturally be unrestrained.
The blatant eviction order was in front of him, but Shen Jiyun pretended not to hear anything, and just returned Jiang Li's words in full.
"The situation is unclear now." His voice was calm and indifferent, without any selfishness, "You and I take care of each other."
Jiang Li: "..."
What he said fell back on his head.
The problem is, there's no way to refute it yet.
He muffled: "Whatever you want."
After speaking, he buried his head and walked to the inside.
The courtyard is elegant, and the room is as luxurious as I have seen before.
As soon as you open the door and enter, you will see a gold-painted enamel screen placed in the center, and after passing by, you will see a Boshan furnace placed on the table.
Cigarettes curl up, making the scenery hazy and unreal.
Jiang Li's eyes were blurred for a while, and he blinked his eyes before he regained his composure.
Shen Jiyun's voice came from the side, it was far away and near, and he couldn't hear it clearly: "What's wrong?"
Jiang Li felt a tingling pain in his temple, and was about to speak, but this strange feeling was fleeting, so fast that people thought it was just an illusion.
"It's nothing..." he said, "This fragrance smells uncomfortable."
Shen Jiyun raised his right hand slightly.
A gust of cold wind swept past, blowing every window open, and a thin layer of frost condensed on the Boshan stove.
With a sound of "呲", the incense ash in the incense burner was extinguished, and the fragrance lingering in the room was gradually blown away by the wind.
Shen Jiyun asked: "Is it better?"
Jiang Li nodded, and was about to say something, when suddenly a force came from his waist, and he rose into the air.
"Hmm—" He subconsciously grabbed something around him, and when he tried hard with his fingers, what he caught was a hard arm.
"What are you doing?" Jiang Li tugged in displeasure, Shen Jiyun didn't move at all, walked straight through the hall, came to the inside, finally stopped in front of the imperial concubine's bed, and then let him down.
Jiang Li didn't know why.
Shen Jiyun lowered his hand, and said in a tone that could not be refuted: "You rest first."
Jiang Li: "I'm not tired..." Before he finished speaking, he yawned, and a little teardrop appeared from the corner of his eye, hanging on his eyelashes.
Shen Jiyun: "Huh?"
Jiang Li: "..."
Jiang Li was speechless.
It’s true to say that, traveling all the way to the South China Sea, and experiencing such a secret place, I didn’t feel it before, but now that I say it like this, I naturally feel tired.
He insisted, "I'm not worried."
Shen Jiyun said "hmm": "I will guard you." He looked determined, "Don't worry."
Jiang Li really felt curled up now, so he took advantage of the situation and leaned against the soft pillow.At first he just wanted to close his eyes and rest for a while, but after a long time, he also fell into a deep sleep.
Between half-dream and half-awake, he saw a straight figure standing on one side, like a bamboo like a pine.
Even though he didn't do anything, it made people feel inexplicably at ease.
So Jiang Li fell asleep in peace.
He had a dream.
The dream is hazy.
Jiang Li walked in a vast and boundless ocean.
The salty sea breeze blows.
The seagull fluttered past, picked up a small fish from under the sea, flapped its wings, turned around and flew to a higher place.
Jiang Li lowered his head, and the waves rolled over his toes, wet the corners of his clothes.
The sea water is clear, sparkling in the sunlight, and pearls are scattered all over the place.
He stretched out his hand, trying to pick up one of them, but the round pearl slipped past his fingertips, and then disappeared without a trace.
A voice rang in my ear: "What do you want?"
Ethereal, ethereal.
Jiang Li wanted to find the place where the sound was, but all he could see was the vast sea.
What does he want?
"I can give you anything."
he wants……
"As long as you say."
want to……
"Go ahead."
Jiang Li's lips moved, about to express the most hidden desire in his heart.
……
at the same time.
Shen Jiyun sat in front of the table, even if there were no outsiders around, his back was still straight and he didn't relax at all.
He poured a cup of tea in front of him and placed it flat on the table, but a ripple appeared out of thin air on the surface of the water.
A voice rang out.
"Stop pretending."
Shen Jiyun's eyebrows twitched, but he didn't look up.His expression was stern, as if he hadn't heard the words at all.
"whee……"
"Stop pretending."
"You're depressed, aren't you?"
Shen Jiyun lowered his eyes, and his appearance was reflected on the water.
The voice next to my ear was still chattering, full of strange magic power: "You clearly want to control everything."
"When you see Jiang Li talking intimately with other people, you wish you could kill them."
"Don't worry, it's normal, everyone has desires. Possessive, greedy, even... love-desires."
"It's better to be blocked than to be sparse."
"The Tianya Haijiao Tower is not in the world. Here, no matter what you do, no one will find out."
"You don't have to be so miserable pretending to be a - normal person."
Shen Jiyun's hands rested on the table, trembling uncontrollably.
He is a swordsman.
The most important thing for a swordsman is to keep his hands steady. Even if he dies, he must die holding the sword.
But now his hands are shaking.
There were circles of ripples on the surface of the water.
Looking down again.
The figure inside had red eyes, as if some kind of desire had been ignited.
And in the corner.
The originally extinguished Boshan furnace was quietly ignited.
