Chapter 103: The Mysterious Wooden Building

  While everyone was inquiring about Ye Liu's news, they returned to Beijing. Wen Baiyu still remembered to return the Jianmu tree branch to Mingdi.

  They took the train because this time no one sponsored it, so they just bought ordinary tickets, not some high-end business class tickets.

  The train was extremely crowded, perhaps because it was the end of the year, and it looked very chaotic. As soon as I got on, I smelled a very unpleasant smell.

  Wen Baiyu was holding back her breath and couldn't help but feel impatient, while Yu Wanting was excitedly watching the egg baby, staring at the gap to try to figure out what species it was.

  Yu Wei Yang said: "Can only see white wings, it seems like he wrapped himself up?"

  Wen Baiyu said with a smirk: "It must be Xiao Hongtuo, my genes are stronger."

  Yu Wenyang said: "That's not necessarily true, maybe it's a dragon with wings?"

  Tang Zǐ laughed and said: "Yu Lǎobǎn, the Candle Dragon is already quite against the heavens, if it grows wings, that would be even more troublesome."

  Yu Wei Yang said: "That's also true, but if there really are wings, wouldn't that be a small phoenix? It doesn't make sense."

  Four people were studying the egg baby when someone suddenly shouted "Jing Ye", Yu Wei Yang quickly wrapped up the egg baby and covered it with his clothes.

  The person who came over was Er Shan. Everyone almost forgot that Er Shan is also from Beijing and needs to return to Beijing.

  Ershan and Wan Jie Jinghou exchanged a few words, but Wan Jie Jinghou's expression was very cold, saying nothing, Ershan could only smile and walk away.

  His seat is not here and he will be gone soon after crossing the carriage.

  Wen Baiyu didn't notice him and said to Yu Yang: "After you return to Beijing, investigate the person named Ye Liu Xiang. It's estimated that we can only start investigating from Tang Laoban."

  Yu Wei Yang smiled and said, "Well, but I'm just a person with connections on the road. If someone knows, they can definitely investigate. You might as well let Master Jing help you investigate. Once he opens his mouth, many people will beg to tell him."

  Wen Baiyu glanced at Wan Jinhong and said, "Really?"

  Wan Xi Jing Hou just smiled and hooked his finger at Wen Bai Yu, who always felt that this animal was something he would only do to the cats and dogs downstairs.

  But Wen Baiyu still walked over honestly and asked, "What's going on?"

  Wan Qi Jing Hou said: "I indeed have some connections on the road..."

  He said with a particularly charming smile at the corner of his mouth, "You kiss me once, and I'll go check, how about it?"

  Wen Baiyu snorted and said, "It's always like this, completely unoriginal."

  Wan Xi Jing Hou's face showed a look of being taught a lesson, and he said: "Then give me two kisses."

  Wen Baiyu: "......"

  The next morning, everyone got off the train and was waiting for a taxi at the station when a very flashy black business car came over. As soon as the car stopped, Mingdi immediately crawled out from inside, with his hands in his pockets, saying: "Wen Baiyu, you really made me wait, hurry up and bring the things."

  Wen Baiyu saw Mingdi wearing a gray suit and big sunglasses, followed by several bodyguards, just like a black society. The train station was crowded with people coming and going, everyone looked over here, then immediately hid far away.

  Wen Baiyu's temples throbbed slightly, and he quickly reached into his backpack to grab a branch of Jianmu tree. Mengdi smiled slyly as Wen Baiyu rummaged through his bag, saying: "Hey, you're pregnant again! I'm telling you, Wan Kuang Jinghou, your actions are too fast, can you afford to raise another one?"

  Ming Emperor was teasing Wan Qi Jing Hou when he heard Wen Bai Yu exclaim, "Ah!", saying: "Oh no, the branch is gone..."

  Mingdi was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said: "Wen Baiyu, don't deceive me, I just teased your man for a sentence, didn't I?"

  Wen Baiyu said: "It really disappeared, I checked again when I got on the train, it was clearly with me, and this bag wasn't even put in the luggage rack, how did it suddenly disappear?" Reading "The Poisonous Concubine of the Demonic King".

  Wan Qi Jing Hou furrowed his brow and searched again, but there was indeed no Jianmu branch in the bag.

  The Emperor of the Underworld furrowed his brow and said, "Really, there isn't?"

  Wen Baiyu said: "Why would I cheat you? I don't even know how to use this thing."

  The Lord of the Underworld immediately became somewhat anxious, saying: "My ancestor, look at what you've done, the wooden tree branch is a divine instrument, and yet you managed to lose it. This time, it won't be easy to find."

  The Emperor Ming said, hastily got on the car, "Bang" sound hung up the car door, ordered the driver to start the car, and rolled down the window, saying: "If you have any news about the tree branch, notify me immediately."

  Wen Baiyu nodded, and then saw Mingdi's sports car disappear in a cloud of smoke.

  Wen Baiyu said strangely: "It was clearly in the backpack, who took it away?"

  The crowd quickly returned to the small restaurant, and Wen Baiyu searched again twice, but still couldn't find any sign of Jian Mu's branch. He then made a phone call to Zou Chengyi.

  However, the phone number was indeed Zhou Chengyi's.

  The smiling servant said: "Young master was a bit tired last night and hasn't gotten up yet, if there's anything, I can pass it on to young master."

  Wen Baiyu suddenly felt a strong animalistic aura emanating from Yi Feng's tone.

  Yi Feng heard that Jianmu's branch was gone and was also surprised, saying: "Jianmu's branch is an ancient divine artifact, many people want it, when the young master wakes up, I will inform the young master and help find it."

  Wen Baiyu quickly hung up the phone and it was almost noon when Yu Wan Yang suddenly ran to the small restaurant, shouting "Wen Baiyu" as soon as he entered.

  Tang Zixiao smiled and looked at Yu Wenyang running in, shouting "Wen Baiyu" and immediately saying: "Yu boss, I can be jealous."

  Yu Wei's face turned red as he waved his hand to shoo away Tang Zi, saying to Wen Baiyu: "Wen Baiyu, I'm telling you, this is too damn weird!"

  "What's wrong?"

  Yu Wei Yang said: "Do you still remember that day when we went to Panjiayuan to stroll through the night market? That stall owner Er Shan."

  Wen Baiyu said: "I remember, it's that person who speaks very smoothly, looks like an old slicker."

  Yu Wei Yang said: "Right, right, it's him. The one who sold the jade cicada wasn't him either? We saw him at the Panjia Garden night market that day, and later went to Xiadou, he was walking with her too, wasn't he?"

  Wen Baiyu nodded and said, "What's going on?"

  Yu Wei Yang said: "So, this matter is quite strange. I asked a friend to inquire about Tang's affairs, and it turned out that he mentioned Er Shan. Good fellow, my friend said it was impossible, Er Shan was in jail, how could he run out and sell antiques again."

  "Wait a minute? Where's Er Shan?"

  Yu Wei nodded and said: "My friend said that Er Shan was sentenced to several years in prison for selling antiques six months ago, it's impossible for him to be out now."

  Wen Baiyu said: "Who else went with us to Shaoyang at the Panjia Garden night market?"

  Yu Wei Yang said: "I don't know about this, but I asked around and it's true that Er Shan is currently in the detention center, this is absolutely certain. The boss also needs to compete for his position."

  Wen Baiyu suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck, and he let out an "ah" as he recalled that when they returned to Beijing, they ran into Er Shan at the train station. Er Shan came over and exchanged a few words with them before leaving.

  However, the time when Ershan and Pantan were talking was exactly during the period from when Wen Baiyu finished checking the branches of Jianmu Tree to when he went missing.

  What's the story behind these two mountains?

  Moreover, Wan Zong Jing Hou is familiar with Er Shan, how could he not recognize him?

  Wan Xi Jing Hou was busy clearing the table, it was the peak hour for the small restaurant and he hadn't heard Wen Bai Yu and Yu Wei Yang's conversation.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou put things away, turned around and saw Wen Bai Yu beckoning to him, smiled helplessly, then walked over in big strides.

  Wen Baiyu told Wan Jijinghou about the things that Yu Wenyang had said, and Wan Jijinghou furrowed his brow, saying: "I only did business with him once, I'm not familiar with him."

  Yu Wei Yang said, "Looks like this fake Er Shan has slipped away. I'll head back first and continue investigating that Ye Liu Xiang person. I've asked several people, but no one's heard of him, not easy to find."

  Yu Wei Yang left soon, and Tang Zi saw him off for a long distance when he was about to leave.

  Two days later, Luo Qifeng made a phone call to Wen Baiyu and asked about the progress of his investigation.

  Wen Baiyu said, "It's not looking good. Some people know that Boss Tang bought a child who is a distant relative, but this distant relative is really too far away and from a small place, it's a bit difficult to investigate. How about your side?"

  Luo Qifeng let out a sigh and said, "Same here, it's all these things."

  Wen Baiyu said: "It doesn't matter, search slowly, and there will definitely be some clues."

  Luo Qifeng smiled and said, "Well, if there's nothing else, I'll hang up first."

  "Hey, wait."

  Luo Qifeng said: "Anything else?"

  Wen Baiyu said: "I'd like to ask, when we went to Shaoyang together before, who got in touch with you, was it Boss Tang?"

  Luo Qifeng didn't understand why Wen Baiyu was asking this, but still replied: "It's not Boss Tang, it's Er Shan who is connected to me. I only met Boss Tang for the first time when I arrived in Shaoyang... what's going on?"

  Wen Baiyu was taken aback as soon as he heard the two words "Er Shan", and he seemed to be in a daze, as if he hadn't heard Luo Qifeng's question.

  Wen Baiyu was holding his phone, lost in thought. Wan Qi Jinghou came over quickly and saw that Wen Baiyu had been on the phone for five minutes already. He was extremely unhappy to see that Wen Baiyu was chatting with someone else. As he walked over, he glanced at the screen out of the corner of his eye and saw the name "Luo Ge" faintly displayed. This made Wan Qi Jinghou even more displeased.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou suddenly walked over, quickly raised the menu in his hand, slightly lowered his head, and covered Wen Bai Yu's lips.

  Wen Baiyu was still in a daze when he suddenly let out a loud "ah" as Wan Jingshou covered his mouth with hers, and she began to nibble and bite, causing a slight stinging pain. Wen Baiyu let out another faint "hiss".

  Luo Qifeng held the phone for half a day without hearing Wen Baiyu speak, then heard Wen Baiyu's exclamation, and immediately after that, the call was cut off, thinking that something had happened to Wen Baiyu.

  Wen Baiyu glared at Wan Jingshou, then looked at the phone that she had accidentally pressed, and said helplessly to Wan Jingshou: "I'm talking about serious business!"

  Wan Qi Jing Hou blinked, his face was already perfect, and with fair skin, one white covers a thousand uglinesses. Wan Qi Jing Hou's eyelashes were also against the sky, long, and when he blinked, Wen Bai Yu felt weak and said "I'd rather be your concubine".

  Wen Baiyu said in a bad mood: "What's with the cute act! It doesn't suit you!"

  Wan Xi Jing Hou smiled and said: "No, I'm also doing the right thing."

  He said, using the menu as cover, quickly stuck it on, kissing Wen Baiyu's lips, entwining his tongue with the other person's, and sucking hard on Wen Baiyu's tongue root. Wen Baiyu widened his eyes, using the menu to block... what was he doing?!

  Someone whispered: "Hey, the boss is being affectionate with Lao Gong again, what's blocking it, but it feels even more...!"

  Wen Baiyu: "......"

  Just then, Luo Qifeng's call came back, and Wan Xijinghou reacted quickly, picking up the phone and saying, "Hello."

  Luo Qifeng obviously didn't expect it was Wan Kuang Jinghou on the phone, and after a two-second pause, he said: "Is that Brother Wan Kuang?"

  Mo Xi Jing Hou coldly said: "Mm, it's me."

  Wen Baiyu immediately reacted and snatched the phone back. Luo Qifeng said, "What's wrong with you? You suddenly shouted loudly, I thought something was wrong."

  Wen Baiyu awkwardly laughed twice and would rather die than tell him what just happened.

  Wen Baiyu told Luo Qifeng about the problematic things with Er Shan, and Luo Qifeng recalled: "At that time, it was indeed Er Shan who contacted me, saying there were investors, and it was a very profitable business."

  Although they didn't find any clues about Ye Liu Xiang, now they can basically confirm that this Er Shan is problematic and is an impersonator, but who it is exactly is still unknown.

  It wasn't until a week later that everyone finally found out where Ye Liu Xiang lived, and it was still the all-knowing Master Jing who figured it out. What Yu Wei Yang said was indeed true - when Master Jing says something, many people rush to tell him.

  Ye Liu Xiang is indeed very difficult to investigate, because the information left behind is too little. He has no online information, and wanting to rely on developed networks to investigate is simply impossible.

  Ye Liu's hometown is in Hebei, a very remote rural area. This place is really too poor, there is no asphalt road, and only one way to enter the village, which is bumpy and muddy. It just so happens that it has been raining for two days, and the road is all muddy.

  Luo Qifeng heard the news and immediately rushed to Beijing. He drove, picked up Wen Baiyu and Wan Kui Jinghou, and headed to a small village in Hebei.

  Ye Liu Xiang is not even called Ye Liu Xiang, so they can't find this person no matter how hard they try. In his hometown, people don't have names, it's an extremely backward place where kids may not even be able to go to school, and there's basically no knowledge or education, so how could someone come up with such a name?

  Ye Liu Xiang had no name, was the seventh in line at home, with five older brothers and one sister. When he was born, the fortune teller said it was a girl, so the family didn't want him and directly wanted to abort him, but unexpectedly failed, and Ye Liu Xiang was born anyway.

  Ye Liu Xiang was born as a deformed child...

  Luo Qifeng looked at the materials brought by Wan Kuang Jinghou and didn't know what to feel. The place they were going was very backward, naturally also closed off.

  Deformed children are heaven's punishment and a very ominous omen. It is said that after Ye Liu Xiang was born, there were three consecutive years of severe drought.

  The car slowly drove along the muddy road, and Ruo Qi Feng couldn't drive fast at all. The wheels splashed mud everywhere, covering Ruo Qi Feng's large Jeep in a layer of brownish-gray mud spots, even the windows were covered in mud.

  A large Jeep drove into the village, and since the village road was narrow, everyone's eyes were fixed on their car. Many people even came out of their homes to see their car, as if they had seen something new and interesting.

  The car kept going in, but finally couldn't move anymore and stopped. The road ahead was too narrow, and there was no way to let the wide Jeep in.

  Luo Qifeng extinguished the fire and said, "Get off the bus, I think we're going in."

  Wen Baiyu opened the car door, took a look at the muddy water on the ground, and felt dizzy. If she stepped into it with one foot deep and one foot shallow, her shoes and pants would be ruined.

  Wan Qi Jing Hou looked at him hesitating, couldn't help but smile, jumped off the jeep, and immediately stretched out his hand to hold him, putting him on his back, saying: "I'll carry you?"

  Wen Baiyu pursed his lips, although it wasn't very nice to be carried on someone's back, but under the current circumstances, he still chose to let Wan Kuang Jinghou carry him.

  Wan Qi Jing Hou wore boots, stuffing his black pants into the boot tube, trudging on the muddy road, making "patter patter" sounds. Fortunately, the boot tube was relatively high, so only the boots were ruined, and the pants didn't get dirty.

  Luo Qifeng is quite big and doesn't care about these things. He pinched a cigarette, put it in his mouth, and because he hadn't shaved for a long time, his chin was full of stubble, making him look somewhat fierce. To be honest, in the eyes of these villagers, Luo Qifeng didn't seem like a good person...

  They walked in, and the villagers were just curious about their cars, but they were afraid of these people and hid far away.

  Wen Baiyu didn't know which house was Ye Liu's home, as there were no house numbers in this area and all the houses looked exactly alike.

  At this time, a young man was squatting by the side of the road, smoking and staring at them.

  That young man was dressed in a rather punk style, and in this village, he was practically an oddity that stood out at a glance. The young man saw their car and seemed very interested, smiling and saying: "Are you guys from the city?"

  Wen Baiyu's eyes rolled around and she patted Wan Jingshou, letting him put her down. Smiling, she said: "Right, we're here to find someone. Can you help us identify them?"

  Wen Baiyu said, handing over Ye Liuxiang's photo to the young man.

  The young punk who was dressed up saw the photo, took two deep drags on his cigarette and said: "Of course I know him, he's from around here, very famous."

  Wen Baiyu said: "Can you talk to us?"

  The young man said: "What do you want to hear?"

  Wen Baiyu said: "I'll listen to anything as long as it's relevant."

  Young people kept looking at their cars, seemingly quite discerning. The village was too small and there were many villagers nearby who frowned upon seeing the photo with particular disgust.

  Wen Baiyu then invited the young man to sit in the car and chat while sitting.

  The young man burst out laughing and immediately followed them onto the bus.

  After the young man got on the bus, he still wanted to smoke. Wan Qi Jing Hou reached out and immediately snuffed out his cigarette, throwing it out the window and landing it right in a trash heap.

  The young man was taken aback and said, "Wow, brother, you're quite skilled!"

  Wan Qi Jing Hou did not speak.

  The young man laughed and said, "I'll tell you, the person you're asking about is surnamed Ye, seventh in his family, we call him Ye Qi. You might not know, but in our village, whenever a new baby is born, especially a boy, everyone will go to take a look. That's how famous Ye Qi became."

  The villagers saw Ye Liu's photos and felt disgusted, it was because of this.

  When Ye Jia was pregnant, a fortune teller had taken a look and said that Ye Qi was originally a girl, but when she was born, she turned out to be a boy. This was indeed a strange thing, and many people in the village went to take a look. After all, the village was very backward, and there were only two things to watch all year round.

  Ye Qisheng was born with a congenital deformity, his back had two protruding pieces of skin-covered bone at the butterfly-shaped vertebrae, in other words, he had a deformed back. This might have something to do with the Ye family's earlier thoughts of aborting the fetus, but they didn't know that.

  They only knew that a monster was born, with terrifying fangs on its back, and the villagers all came to gawk. From then on, the Ye family became a laughing stock.

  The villagers thought that the deformed child was an ominous sign, and God would bring punishment. Coincidentally, after Ye Qi's birth, there was a severe drought, and some people said that Ye Qi was the reincarnation of the drought demon.

  The young man chuckled and said, "I don't know if you've seen Ye Qī's back, but he has two scars on his back."

  Luo Qifeng nodded and said, "How did you manage that?"

  The young man said, "If I didn't say it was superstition, I wouldn't believe it... But this place believes in it fiercely. Those scars were made by Ye Qī's parents. They cut off the two deformed bones on Ye Qī's back!"

  As soon as he finished speaking, everyone shuddered, and just listening to it made their backs ache. Luo Qifeng was even more surprised, saying: "How can there be such parents?"

  The young man said: "It's not just that..."

  Ye Qi is a monster, even after removing the deformed bones from his back, everyone still sees him as a monster. Ye Qi grew up and couldn't speak, his parents later discovered that Ye Qi was not only a monster but also deaf and mute. Ye Qi's body was extremely weak, his parents didn't like him, and he never had good food to eat when he was young, making him even weaker, and his appearance was like a girl's, very beautiful, with a fragile and delicate feeling.

  Everyone felt that Mr. Fortune Teller was right, Ye Qi was originally a girl, but was born into the wrong body, half-man and half-woman, and was also deformed.

  Ye Qī's parents disliked Ye Qī even more, later some people came to the village, most of whom were human traffickers who wanted to buy children from them. At a glance, they set their sights on Ye Qī, who was very pretty and fourteen years old at the time. Due to malnutrition, she hadn't even had her first period yet, and her hair was a bit long and stuck to her face. The human traffickers harbored evil intentions and wanted to buy Ye Qī away.

  The young man clicked his tongue and said: "Alas, it's really inhuman."

  Luo Qifeng's hands clenched into fists, his bones crackling with rage.

  Young people said: "However, later a man with the surname Tang came to our village, saying he was a great philanthropist. Since he had made his fortune here in his early years, he wanted to give us money, especially since he was very rich. It's also said that the Ye family is related to him. As soon as Mr. Tang arrived, he took a liking to Ye Qi and said that Ye Qi's birthdate was auspicious, destined for great wealth and nobility. However, I think it's probably just nonsense. Mr. Tang wanted to adopt Ye Qi as his son and spent more money on him than those human traffickers did."

  The young man laughed and said: "You think Tang is a good person? He saved Ye Qī?"

  "Then isn't he a good person?"

  The young man shook his head and said: "Everyone in our village thinks that the Tang family is a good Samaritan, but I don't think so..."

  Originally, young people saw something that Wen Baiyu and others knew vaguely about. After hearing the young person say so, they immediately pieced it together.

  The young man said that after Tang bought Ye Qi, he didn't leave immediately. He bought an empty house next to it. What they lack the least here is houses. With a piece of land, just pile up bricks and build one.

  Tang Boss let Ye Qi live inside and even gave him a name with high knowledge level, called Ye Liu Xiang.

  Later, a man with the surname Zhang came to the village. He looked sharp and was acquainted with Old Tang. The two of them often went in and out of that house.

  This thing happened not long ago, so the young people remember it particularly clearly. The young people are relatively rebellious, and from Killer Whale's haircut, he thinks that Boss Tang and Mr. Zhang are not good guys, so he secretly goes to that house to read "Dumb Spring".

  The young man said he was good at climbing trees and houses, so he climbed to the top of the house, lifted up the tiles and looked inside. He saw Ye Qī being tied up with ropes on a chair, his body covered in scars. The simple room only had a chair and a table, with various needles on it. Ye Qī's body was swollen all over like an allergic reaction.

  The young man's narrative is the photo they saw, Old Zhang died with a photo in his hand. According to Wen Baiyu's inference, it should be that Tang Laoban and Old Zhang had planned to use Ye Liuxiang as bait early on, so they gave him an injection of some anti-corpse poison beforehand.

  But this kind of thing is not available on the market, and it's all made by ourselves, so I think it's very dangerous.

  The young man said: "I haven't seen the world either, I don't know what that was all about, but Ye Qī cried so miserably, it scared me to death."

  "What then?" said Wen Baiyu.

  Luo Qifeng said: "You just ran away?"

  The young man thought for half a day and wanted to light a cigarette, but after glancing at Wan Qi Jing Hou, he still didn't light one and said, "No."

  The young man paused for a moment, his face slightly pale, and said: "This thing is too terrible, I told you to believe me, I'm not daydreaming."

  Wen Baiyu looked at the young man with a strange gaze, and the young man took a deep breath and said: "You also see that I just can't stand this kind of thing in our village. That Ye Qi is really pitiful, I was especially angry at the time, and felt that Tang's family and that cunning old Zhang are not good people either."

  The young man was very bold and secretly climbed down from the rooftop. Seeing that there was no one outside, he pried open the lock and went in.

  There was no one in the house except Ye Qī. It's likely that Boss Táng and Old Zhāng had both gone out to take care of some business, so the young man thought about releasing Ye Qī.

  The young man's hand trembled as he spoke: "Guess what? When I walked over, Ye Qī was already dead..."

  Luo Qifeng exclaimed in surprise: "Dead?"

  The young man nodded and said, "He's dead, absolutely certain. I felt for a pulse several times, he really had stopped breathing and didn't have a heartbeat. At the time, I was scared to death, but then I thought that since Ye Qī is dead, his parents definitely won't care about it. Since I saw it, I couldn't just leave him there, so I carried him out and found a place to bury him."

  Wen Baiyu's hairs on the back of his neck stood up after hearing that, Ye Liuxiang was dead and had already been buried!

  The young man continued: "Don't be scared, there's more to the story. After I buried him, my heart was pounding a bit, and I couldn't sleep at midnight, so I ran to his grave to take a look, but you guys guess what happened?"

  The young people didn't let them speak, and continued to say: "I saw the soil on the grave being dug up, but there was no one around, the grave moved by itself, and then Ye Qi came out of the soil by himself. He stumbled and walked away... I was so scared that I was stunned, a dead person coming out of the soil, it was too terrifying to see, you guys haven't seen such a scene, it's really too frightening."

  And the next day, he saw with his own eyes that a kind-hearted man surnamed Tang took away Ye Liuxiang, who had crawled out of the grave.

  The young man said, "This is absolutely true, don't think I'm daydreaming. This is all I know, and the grave is still there because it happened not long ago, about half a month, definitely less than a month. If you don't believe me, go take a look at the back mountain."

  The young man pointed the way for them again. The grave was on the back mountain, and the young man casually found a place to bury it, saying that there was a particularly tall big tree next to it.

  Everyone asked about Ye Liu Xiang's situation and fell silent, really didn't know how much suffering Ye Liu Xiang had endured, but listening to it was quite pitiful.

  Wen Baiyu and they prepared to go up the mountain first to take a look and see if there was that grave.

  The village's back mountain is used for burying the dead. Whenever someone dies, they are pulled there to be buried. Those with some money get a coffin, while those without are simply wrapped up and buried. Years go by, today becomes tomorrow.

  As the crowd walked up the mountain along the muddy road, they felt a chill all around. This place was indeed where people were buried, and the yin energy was particularly heavy. Many crows circled above their heads, crying "Ga la - Ga la".

  They walked up the mountain, just a small slope, but the trees were quite dense. Because it was early winter, the trees had withered and looked very desolate. You could vaguely see crows perched on the branches.

  They walked up and soon saw a piece of turned-up earth, the land was very messy, with a big hole, but due to the flushing of mud and water, the big hole had been filled in part, but at a glance, it was the tomb mentioned by the young man.

  Wen Baiyu looked inside the tomb and found it was indeed empty. At this moment, he caught a whiff of blood and couldn't help but cover his mouth and nose with his hand, then lifted his head to look around.

  "Drip..."

  Wen Baiyu just lifted his head and saw a drop of blood falling from the withered tree next to him, which happened to fall on the cheek of Lü Qiufeng beside him.

  Luo Qifeng was taken aback, reached out to wipe his face, and found that there was blood in his palm, which was fresh blood. He couldn't help but be stunned again, and then quickly looked up at the top.

  Next to the tomb there really is a big tree, the big tree has not completely shed its leaves, the tree is very tall, with sparse leaves, as if hiding a person.

  No, to be exact, it's two people.

  One person sat on a tree, with leaves blocking his face, and had a very weak build. Another person was hanging from the tree, looking like someone who had hanged themselves!

  The man hanging from the tree was motionless, hanging very high. They were only looking at the grave and didn't notice that the rope he was hanging from was probably his own belt.

  He was dressed in a very distinctive way, like a Jianghu cheat's Taoist priest, looking as if he had already died, with a bloodless wound on his neck, the blood having been almost completely drained, and some remaining blood trickling down, just dripping onto Rong Qifeng's face.

  "Shasha..."

  Just then a rustling sound came from the leaves, and the person sitting in the tree moved slightly, lifted their face out of the leaves, and smiled at them.

  The person looked very frail, wearing a white down jacket, with a milky white scarf around his neck, and white gloves on his hands, covering them tightly, revealing only a palm-sized face, with long eyelashes, delicate and pretty features, harmless.

  It's Ye Liu Xiang...

  The lips that had been whispering were bright red, with a few drops of blood trickling down from the corner of her mouth.

  The leaves rustled as he stuck out his tongue, lightly licking the corner of his mouth, and with the tip of his tongue, he quickly hooked up the dripping blood and swallowed it. He narrowed his eyes, and his nose let out a sighing sound, as if he had just savored some delicious delicacy.

  Everyone who saw this scene was stunned.

  Wen Bai's throat moved and she felt nauseous, almost vomiting. She bent down halfway, her hands supporting her knees, and let out a "hū" sound as if she was about to throw up.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou immediately supported Wen Bai Yu and gently patted his back.

  The leaves on the tree rustled and "heh" laughed, finally opening its mouth to speak. The voice was clear and crisp, with a hint of youthful tone, somewhat gentle, smiling and saying: "Wen Baiyu, we meet again."

  As soon as he spoke, Wen Baiyu was stunned, and his mind was filled with the dream on Mount Kunlun, where a boy's voice told him...

  Wen Baiyu, have you seen cicadas?

  Warm white feathers, I am a cicada that emerged from the soil...

  Wen Baiyu was shocked and looked up at Ye Liuxiang. Wan Qi Jinghou narrowed his eyes, moved his fingers, and the dragon scale dagger "swished" directly upwards. Ye Liuxiang quickly hooked his hands around a branch and jumped to another branch, sitting down. The continuation is difficult, the CEO is too overbearing.

  The dragon scale dagger suddenly flew out with a "whoosh" and disappeared into the forest, the rustling of leaves just about to subside when Wan Kuang Jing Hou suddenly opened his palm again, and another "whoosh" sound came from behind. This time, the dragon scale dagger seemed to have come to life, flying out once more from the dense forest behind him.

  The leaves rustled quickly and slid along the branch, barely avoiding the returning dagger.

  The dagger fell into the hands of Wan Zhi Jing Hou with a "hiss" and was inserted back into its scabbard.

  Wan Kuang's gaze was cold and he swept a glance at Ye Liu Xiang who was sitting on the branch.

  Luo Qifeng looked at Ye Liuxiang in surprise, Ye Liuxiang's movements were extremely agile, and he didn't look like a frail young man at all.

  Luo Qifeng couldn't help but think of the various things that had happened in Xiadu, and it seemed that Ye Liuxiang was all pretending. He narrowed his eyes, his face looking ugly, and said: "Who are you, after all!"

  Her bright and lively big eyes looked at Luo Qi Feng, then "heh heh" laughed and suddenly said: "You like me?"

  Everyone did not expect Ye Liuxiang to say this, and they were all stunned. Especially Luo Qifeng, who was first stunned and then thought of the strange dream he had in the tomb. Could it be that Ye Liuxiang knew about it? Or perhaps that strange dream was actually a trap set by Ye Liuxiang?

  Luo Qi's eyes narrowed and he didn't say a word, his breathing just became slightly more urgent.

  Ye Liu responded again, saying the same thing but this time in a definite tone. The young man's clear voice laughed and said: "You like me."

  Luo Qifeng's face turned incredibly dark, as if hiding a surge of anger.

  Ye Liu Xiang shifted his gaze away and looked at Wen Bai Yu, saying: "Wen Bai Yu, you know who I am."

  Wen Baiyu was shocked and said: "You are really the cicada in the tomb of Kunlun Mountain?"

  Ye Liu nodded and said, "I am."

  He said, and slowly continued: "I remember I said that I am a cicada who crawled out of the earth. As a cicada, my life is very humble, and can only be prolonged by sucking the sap of trees."

  Wen Baiyu was even more shocked, his eyes involuntarily looking at the hanged corpse, saying: "The liquid you mentioned... is blood? The dead people in the tomb, were they also killed by you?"

  Ye Liu Xiang did not deny it, and still nodded his head. The young man's face had a clear and clean air about him, and he couldn't be linked with those terrifying dead people at all.

  Luo Qifeng clenched his fists with both hands, and his bones crackled in response, as if he was still suppressing his anger.

  "Don't be angry, they all have a reason to die. I never kill good people, they all deserve to die. I'm avenging Ye Liu Xiang and solving my own lifespan problem at the same time."

  Wen Baiyu said inexplicably: "Wait a minute, you say you're avenging Ye Liuxiang? Aren't you Ye Liuxiang?"

  Ye Liu Xiang smiled slyly and said: "It wasn't before, but it is now. I want to use this body, but he's dead again. I'll have to give him some posthumous compensation, of course, which means avenging him."

  Luo Qi's eyes narrowed as he said, "Why use this body?"

  Ye Liu Xiang looked at him with a smile on the corner of his mouth and said softly, "Because... I think his experience is somewhat similar to mine."

  Wan Xi Jing Hou Leng Budi's cold voice said: "What is your purpose in waiting for us here?"

  Ye Liu responded with a laugh and said: "You're right on point."

  Ye Liu Xiang said, his hands pushed off the branch and he jumped down. However, as soon as his feet touched the ground, they slipped and he tumbled sideways to the ground. The Tyrannical CEO's Husband Plan.

  The tree was very tall, and Lu Qi Feng's heart tightened immediately. Without thinking, he rushed over and caught the falling Ye Liu Xiang in one swift motion.

  Ye Liu Xiang's body was very small and extremely weak, Rong Qi Feng picked him up in his arms without any effort at all. However, he happened to meet Ye Liu Xiang's lively eyes, which were full of laughter and a hint of cunning.

  Luo Qifeng immediately regretted it, throwing Ye Liuxiang to the ground. Ye Liuxiang had just shown a few glimpses of his agility, extremely nimble, and it was impossible for him to fall from the tree, he must have done it on purpose.

  Ye Liu Xiang jumped down from Lu Qi Feng's arms and smiled, saying: "Thank you."

  Luo Qifeng ignored him.

  Ye Liu Xiang turned around and said to Wan Qi Jing Hou: "I want to cooperate with you."

  Wan Xi Jing Hou coldly laughed and said: "The reason."

  Ye Liu said: "I'm in trouble with the people who are looking for me, I'd like to ask you all for help."

  Wen Baiyu said: "Looking for you? Who's looking for you?"

  Ye Liu Xiang said: "This matter is a long story, and it starts from the tomb of Kunlun Mountain. Do you really want to hear it?"

  Wan Xi Jing Hou said bluntly: "No."

  Wen Baiyu was a bit curious at the time, but since Wan Jieying said it so absolutely, Wen Baiyu could only shut up.

  Ye Liu Xiang said: "I'm telling you the truth, the tomb of Kunlun Mountain is not mine. I and Wen Bai Yu's released Divine Crow Clan person are the same, we're all burial objects. Now the tomb is empty, the tomb owner has resurrected, this tomb owner is the one looking for me, but I can't deal with him."

  Wen Baiyu said: "Is Professor Fang's master you?"

  Ye Liu nodded and said: "This is indeed the case. He wants to live forever, I want to escape the fate of being a companion/burial, but he's not a good person either."

  "Wen Baiyu said: 'Did you kill him?'"

  Ye Liu nodded slightly, as if he acknowledged it was a trivial matter.

  "What about it? Will you help me?" Ye Liu said with a smile.

  The white-feathered fox looked at him suspiciously and said: "Why should we help you, there are too many questions about you, whether you're friend or foe is still unknown."

  Ye Liu Xiang said: "Wen Bai Yu, you can rest assured, I am not your friend, but I am not an enemy either. I am just a person who wants to survive. And I have something to offer in return for your help, I will pay the price, I won't take it for free."

  Ye Liu Xiang said, suddenly taking off his gloves.

  Yè Liúxiǎng's gloves were always a forbidden zone, no matter what the situation was, he would never take them off, even if the scars on his back were exposed to everyone, Yè Liúxiǎng still wouldn't take off his gloves, and people couldn't help but be curious.

  He only saw him take off his gloves, and the crowd took a deep breath with a "hiss", leaving Ruo Qifeng's mind with only two words: monster.

  On the back of Ye Liu's hands, one on each side, there was an eye, and those eyes looked like they were alive, not tattoos or patterns.

  Ye Liu Xiang raised his hand and pointed with his finger, saying: "Ghost Eye."

  Wen Bai's eyes widened in surprise as he exclaimed: "The Ghost Eye is with you?! You stole it?!"

  Ye Liu nodded and said: "If you must say steal, then I can say it too. But the truth is, I really need to borrow it, or else I won't be able to survive."

  Ye Liu Xiang paused for a moment, swept his gaze across the crowd, and his eyes seemed complex as he said: "I am a cicada of accompaniment/burial. Our kind has another name, called Nine-day Birth; Crossing the Loyal Minister System."

  Wen Baiyu had never heard of this name, while Wan Kuang Jinghou furrowed his brow.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou saw Wen Bai Yu's strange expression and explained: "I know that the Nine-day Birth is a legendary thing, born on the ninth day, died on the ninth day, eternally reborn in endless molting."

  Ye Liu shook his head and said, "It sounds too good to be true. To put it bluntly, being born on the ninth day means I can only live for nine days. After nine days, I'll die. But as a cicada, after molting, I'll come back to life, and so on. My lifespan is only nine days, and during these nine days, I have to absorb a large amount of blood to survive. Professor Fang's cicada molting phenomenon, you've all seen it, it's like that. Cicada molting is extremely painful."

  Ye Liu paused for a moment, seemingly reminiscing. After a long while, he spoke slowly: "During the molting process, if a cicada is disturbed, it will be permanently crippled and lose its ability to produce a long, drawn-out sound. Moreover, it will never be able to unfold its wings. Do you know what the ability to produce a long, drawn-out sound means for a cicada?"

  Luo Qifeng was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that in the tomb passage, whether it was a dream or reality, Ye Liuxiang had no reaction to stimulation at all. At that time, Ye Liuxiang's expression was extremely wronged and humiliated, Luo Qifeng thought Ye Liuxiang was disgusted with himself, but he didn't expect it to be like this...

  The cicadas keep making long calls, which are actually used to find suitable female cicadas for reproduction. Once the cicada shell is disturbed, not only will it be injured, but it will also lose its reproductive ability.

  Ye Liu Xiang let out a bitter laugh and shrugged his shoulders, saying: "As an accompaniment to the dead, I molt nine times, and after molting, I'll be eaten by the tomb owner. Moreover, my wings are plucked during molting. To put it bluntly, I'm a useless person. And as a cicada, we're born without hearing, unless I watch your lip movements, otherwise I have no idea what you're saying. I need ghost eyes to predict and help me, or else I'll accomplish nothing."

  Ye Liu Xiang said, pointing to the ghost eye on his hand: "However, the ghost eye seems not to be very compatible with me, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. But I saw two things, as a reward to exchange with you."

  The ghost eye has predictive abilities, which they have experienced before. At that time, the ghost eye was on Fukuo's body, and Fukuo predicted many things, all of which were very accurate.

  He raised a finger and said: "Firstly, I saw the Dragon Candle Egg."

  Wen Baiyu immediately reached into his pocket and felt the candle dragon egg, which was still warm to the touch, with a large crack in it.

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou narrowed his eyes, his face unkind, as if Ye Liu Xiang would absolutely not live to see the next second if he dared to speak.

  Ye Liu Xiang said: "Zhu Long and Hong Yu are both positive Yang objects, this Zhu Long egg of yours has excessive Yang energy, the little baby will be born with red eyes and a blocked vision."

  Wen Baiyu's mind went "buzz" and his egg baby hadn't even hatched yet, but Ye Liuxiang had already said that the egg baby would be born blind...

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou's face was extremely ugly, the aura around him suddenly burst out, Ye Liu Xiang felt a sense of oppression and involuntarily took a step back.

  Ye Liu Xiang suddenly gasped for breath, her body weak, and under the oppressive gaze of Wan Qi Jing Hou, she felt like she was almost suffocating.

  Ye Liu stepped back two steps, leaning against the tree trunk behind him, and said: "What I said is true, and I didn't talk nonsense. However, this is not unsolvable, my cicada shell can cure him, nine days of cicada shell once, the cicada shell can be taken away for medicine, this is what I call a reward."

  Wen Baiyu's breathing was a bit urgent, and he rubbed his eyes. Wan Qi Jinghou reached out to grasp his shoulder, and Wen Baiyu finally calmed down slightly.

  Wen Baiyu said: "Can it really be cured?"

  Ye Liu Xiang said: "Don't worry about this, the tomb owner caught me in the tomb as a burial object, it's because he wants my cicada shell. Since you all want the cicada shell, why shouldn't I give it to you?"

  "What else did you see?"

  Ye Liu Xiang said: "The winner is not the one who reads books, but the one who wears them."

  "Wen Baiyu said: 'Where is it now?'"

  Ye Liu Xiang said: "In Er Shan's hands."

  Wen Baiyu said in surprise: "Really taken away by Er Shan?"

  Ye Liu Xiang said: "At first, I thought it was a bit strange when I saw him. Later, I realized that he had stolen the Jianmu tree branch and understood that he was probably sent to catch me. However, this time, because of Wan Kui Jing Hou, he didn't make a move rashly, but stole the Jianmu tree branch."

  Wen Baiyu said: "Do you know where Er Shan is now? Where can we find Jianmu tree branches?"

  Ye Liu Xiang said: "Kongtong Mountain."

  Everyone looked at each other, and then Zhong Jun and Er Shan took branches of Jianmu trees to Mount Kongtong.

  Ye Liu Xiang said: "Your goal is to retrieve the Jianmu tree branch and cure the Chi Mu Yan obstacle, while my goal is to survive. Since Er Shan was sent to capture me, our goals are now aligned. How about it? Will you cooperate?"

  Wen Baiyu was silent for a moment, touched the candle dragon egg in his pocket, which felt warm to the touch, and nodded slightly, saying: "How do you want to cooperate?"

  Ye Liu Xiang said: "Two days later, set off to Kui Huan Mountain, you can also find the Jianmu tree branches by the way... right, two days later is just the ninth day, I will molt, just in time for delivery."

  Ye Liu Xiang said with a wave of his hand, "I still have things to prepare, I'll leave first, and then I will go find you guys."

  Luo Qi Feng looked at his back, wanting to speak, but remembered that Ye Liu Xiang said he couldn't hear, and could only see other people's mouth shapes. So if he himself spoke behind Ye Liu Xiang's back, naturally he also wouldn't be able to hear.

  Qiu Feng drove to send Wen Baiyu and Wan Qi Jinghou back, and he himself stayed in Beijing, found a hotel to stay for two days, and went to Kongtong Mountain after two days.

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou's face was extremely bad, with an aura that warned people to stay away. Wen Bai Yu looked at the Candle Dragon Egg and felt a thread of luck in his heart. Perhaps it wasn't Ye Liu Xiang after all... maybe he was just joking...

  The egg baby still didn't react, it just cracked open a slit and then stopped moving.

  There are still many questions about Ye Liu Xiang, and who the owner of the Kunlun Mountain tomb is, Ye Liu Xiang did not say.

  Two days later, Ye Liu Xiang really came to find them, still wearing a white down jacket, with a palm-sized face, half of which was hidden in the scarf, shivering and trembling in the cold wind, looking very cute and harmless.

  Ye Liu Xiang walked into the small restaurant, Wan Qi Jing Hou and Wen Bai Yu's luggage was already packed, Luo Qi Feng was also there.

  Ye Liu Xiang had them prepare the train tickets from Beijing to Yinchuan, Wan Xi Jing Hou considered Wen Bai Yu's physical condition and bought four soft sleeper tickets.

  Four people are just right for a house and can also close the door, which is more convenient for talking.

  Ye Liu Xiang is very obedient/clever all the way, nothing more to say, still with that outfit, wearing a scarf, that scarf belongs to Luo Qi Feng.

  Ye Liu got on the train and climbed directly up to the top bunk, never coming down.

  Wen Baiyu saw him curled up on the upper bunk, sleeping. Ye Liu Xiang slept from noon till evening, and only opened his eyes after dark. He then sat up, with a somewhat dazed expression on his face, as if he hadn't woken up yet.

  Just then, the train suddenly made an emergency stop, and a huge force pushed Ye Liu Xiang down from the upper berth. That person didn't react at all and fell down with a "thud".

  Luo Qifeng was on the lower bunk, watching as Ye Liuxiang was about to fall down again. He didn't want to intervene, but this time Ye Liuxiang looked really stunned, not like he was pretending. Luo Qifeng had no choice but to stretch out his hand and catch him.

  After being caught, Ye Liu Xiang was still stunned, his eyes wide and his body trembling. The arrogant president had arrived with a fierce momentum!

  Luo Qifeng felt a bit strange, shook the person in his arms and called out twice: "Ye Liuxiang?"

  Ye Liu Xiang finally woke up at this time, "hiss" and let out a breath, wiping the sweat from his forehead, and smiled at Luo Qi Feng: "Thanks."

  Luo Qifeng didn't say a word, Ye Liu Xiang got up, his palm opened, and there was an additional white cicada shell.

  The cicada shell was very small, about the same size as a normal cicada shell. The cicada shell in Ye Liu's hand was surprisingly beautiful, like crystal, sparkling and translucent, shining brightly in the dimly lit train carriage.

  Wen Baiyu was shocked and said: "Cicada shell?"

  Ye Liu Xiang gently placed the cicada shell in Wen Bai Yu's palm and said, "Keep it well, you can use it later."

  Wen Baiyu carefully examined the cicada shell and then flipped out a small box from her backpack, placing the shell inside.

  Ye Liu Xiang had woken up and didn't sleep again, but instead climbed onto the upper bunk and sat there in a daze.

  Wen Baiyu looked up at him and said, "The owner of that tomb in Kunlun Mountain, who is it?"

  Ye Liu shook his head and said: "I don't know, but it's said that when Zhou Mu Wang was on his way to conquer Kunlun, he passed through Mount Kongtong. On the mountain, he killed a ferocious beast. Zhou Mu Wang buried the corpse of the beast in Mount Kongtong, but later someone dug up the corpse and brought it to Kunlun Mountain. The tomb in Kunlun Mountain has many yellow talismans stuck on its surface. It's clear that later generations knew that something evil was buried inside, so they were afraid it would escape and stuck the talismans there."

  Wen Baiyu said: "Don't you know either?"

  Ye Liu Xiang said: "Specifically what, I don't know either, but he needs cicada shells, cicada shells are a kind of thing for eternal life, and the nine-day-old cicada shell is even more precious."

  Wen Baiyu said: "Since you've already escaped, why go back to Kuangtu Mountain?"

  Ye Liu Xiang laughed and said: "I want to figure out what the hell is going on, do I have to be a fugitive for the rest of my life? Although my lifetime has always been so short."

  Ye Liu Xiang seemed very weak after shedding his skin, and after speaking, he lay down again, closing his tired eyes.

  Everyone on the train had eaten and soon went to sleep, Wen Baiyu lay in the upper berth holding Egg Baby, looking back and forth, sighing.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou seemed to have heard the noise and said: "Can't sleep?"

  Wen Baiyu held the egg baby in one hand, and with the other hand hanging down from the upper bunk, Wan Qi Jinghou pinched his fingers and said: "Can't sleep? Come down."

  Wen Baiyu thought for a moment, then hugged Egg Baby and jumped down from the upper berth, rolling onto Wan Qi Jinghou's bed.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou smiled and said: "You should buy three tickets."

  Two people leaned their heads together, and when Wan Jie saw Wen Baiyu's face still a bit worried, he comforted him softly, saying: "Don't worry, it'll be fine."

  Wen Baiyu said: "This egg baby is like this, you say the next one won't be like this either?"

  Wan Xi Jing Hou shook his head and said: "Relax, don't be too tense."

  Wen Baiyu said: "I'm traumatized now, don't touch me again in the future."

  Wan Xi Jing Hou lightly laughed and said: "Then why did you come over?"

  He said, his hands wrapped around Wen Baiyu's waist, pulling him forward, and the two people's lips immediately touched together. Wan Qi Jing Hou's nose was very high, Wen Baiyu felt his nose tip pressing against his face, lightly touching, numbness spreading.

  The egg baby was sandwiched between two people, and wasn't afraid of rolling to the ground. Wan Xi Jing Hou hugged Wen Bai Yu tightly, fiercely kissing him, seemingly with some intention of venting his emotions.

  Wen Baiyu's body went limp from his kiss, her hands subconsciously wandering all over the place, wanting to confirm that Egg Baby was still there.

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou found that Wen Bai Yu's hand was constantly touching his chest and abdomen, and smiled: "Focus."

  Wen Baiyu's face changed as if he had seen a ghost, and he immediately pushed away Wan Jingshou, saying: "The egg is gone!"

  Wan Kuang Jing Hou flipped over and got up, looked around everywhere, it was clearly just here a moment ago, but in the blink of an eye, it was gone.

  Just then, a "heh heh" laugh was heard, and something hung down from the upper bunk.

  Wen Baiyu looked up and saw that it was actually Egg Baby!

  A green vine had tied the egg baby up tightly and was hanging down from above, making Wen Baiyu's heart skip a beat. Just as she was about to reach out and grab it, the vine suddenly retracted with a "whoosh".

  Wen Baiyu looked up and saw that Xiao Xuemuohua was sitting on the upper bunk. In these days, Xiao Xuemuohua had grown a lot taller, but compared to normal children, she was still much smaller. Her lovely face became more delicate and beautiful, with a hint of gentleness like Guan's, but more resembling Xuemuohua's. The contours of her small face began to take shape.

  Little Blood Orchid sat on the bed laughing, swinging her little legs and wrapping vines around Egg Baby, swaying back and forth.

  The white feathered heart was shocked and jumped onto the upper bunk, quickly taking down the egg baby and saying: "How did you sneak up here?"

  Xiao Xuemu seemed to understand Wen Baiyu's words, but she couldn't speak herself. She went "ah ah" twice and pointed at Wen Baiyu's luggage.

  Wen Baiyu: "......"

  Indeed, it's an illegal immigrant...

  The little blood vine flower always habitually sneaks up on the egg baby, and then slides its own tendril into the crack of the egg baby, using the tendril to hook onto the egg baby's white wings.

  The white wings were annoyed by him, and moved slightly inside the shell, but only for a moment, and then wrapped up again.

  Xiao Xuemu was like a mischievous devil, using vines to tie up the four beds and playing around, perhaps because Xuemu wasn't there, he had a great time playing, jumping back and forth on the four beds, waking up Luo Qi Feng and Ye Liu Xiang.

  Ye Liu Xiang was surprised to see the Blood Jade Flower for the first time, and couldn't help but reach out to touch its face. The little Blood Jade Flower rubbed its cheek against Ye Liu Xiang's finger.

  "Really cute, so well-behaved..."

  His words were not yet finished, Xiao Xue Mu Hua "ah" twice, clapping his hands, his fingernails sharp, at first glance a bit scary.

  Just then, "whoosh" sound, two vines suddenly came out, immediately tied up Ye Liu's hands and pulled down.

  Ye Liu responded with an "ah" sound, completely unprepared, and had no idea that such a small Blood Jade Flower would have so much power.

  Ye Liu Xiang's body fell from above, and Hong Qifeng was shocked. He immediately stretched out his hand to catch him. Xiao Xuemu Hua laughed happily, clapping her hands and shouting "Haha". Suddenly, the vines made a "whooshing" sound and bound Hong Qifeng again.

  Luo Qifeng didn't even know what a small blood marrow flower was, and the vines had tied the two people tightly together, with their noses facing each other and their mouths facing each other.

  Luo Qifeng leaned his head back as far as possible, slightly pulling away from Ye Liuxiang, and caught the scent of musk on the young man's body, causing his breathing to become somewhat disordered.

  Ye Liu Xiang was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing and said: "Uncle, your face is so red! You're really infatuated with her, aren't you?"

  Luo Qifeng was called like this by him, and he suddenly felt a bit embarrassed, more of his breathing quickened, fearing that the two people would stick too tightly together, and he would have a reaction.

  Xiao Xuemu flower seems to be particularly fond of teasing people, looking at Luo Qifeng's reaction "ah ah" clapping hands, laughing especially vigorously.

  Wen Baiyu rubbed his temples, how did this little ancestor sneak over here? He didn't want to raise a son for Guan Nan and Xue Su!

  Xiao Xuemu flower made a big fuss for half the night, playing very enthusiastically. In the second half of the night, it seemed to be tired from playing and wrapped the egg baby tightly with vines, then fell asleep while holding the egg baby. Perhaps because the aura emitted by the egg baby was very warm, Xiao Xuemu flower slept particularly soundly.

  The next day, Xiao Xue Mu Hua woke up early and started playing energetically, making Wen Bai Yu's head ache.

  Wan Qi Jing Hou held the person in his arms, covering their ears with one hand and glancing at Xiaoxue Hua. Xiaoxue Hua pouted, so he had to pick up Dan Bao Bao and run upstairs to play instead.

  Wen Baiyu murmured and snuggled into Wan Jingshou's arms, wrapping her hands around his waist and resting her head on his chest, continuing to sleep.

  Luo Qifeng was woken up and didn't go back to sleep. He sat up and saw Ye Liuxiang walking in from outside, probably just after washing up.

  Ye Liu Xiang didn't go back upstairs, but instead sat down beside Luo Qi Feng.

  Luó Qī Fēng has a grudge against Yè Liú Xiǎng, and half of it is fear. To put it bluntly, Luó Qī Fēng isn't actually afraid of anything, after all he's carefree, but Yè Liú Xiǎng pretended to be pitiful and harmless along the way, and Luó Qī Fēng was completely deceived without realizing it, now he can't even tell which sentence Yè Liú Xiǎng said is true.

  The other half was furious, and Rong Qi Feng didn't know why he was so furious that Ye Liu Xiang deceived himself.

  Luo Qifeng didn't talk to him, put on his own clothes, went out to wash up, and there were many people in line. When he came back, he saw Ye Liuxiang lying on his bed, hugging his coat, with half of his face buried in Luo Qifeng's coat, seemingly taking deep breaths.

  Luo Qifeng was taken aback for a moment, and Ye Liuxiang didn't feel embarrassed either. She smiled and waved at him, saying: "It smells so good, it's warm and cozy, it's the smell of yang energy."

  Luo Qifeng couldn't understand what he was saying.

  Ye Liu Xiang lay on his bed, not returning to her own place. Lu Qi Feng remained silent, looking somewhat embarrassed, and could only say: "Why did you take away the jade cicada and rhinoceros horn from the tomb?"

  Ye Liuxiang sat up, leaning against Ruo Qifeng's back. Ruo Qifeng moved slightly, and Ye Liuxiang leaned back again, this time as if she was leaning into his arms. Ruo Qifeng didn't dare to move anymore.

  Ye Liu Xiang laughed and said: "Of course it's to survive, nine days born and nine days dead, isn't that too painful? I want to find out everything about cicadas. As for rhino horn... you all know, the body I'm using is a corpse, rhino horn can communicate with spirits and provide my body with yin energy, otherwise it would rot."

  Ye Liu paused for a moment, looking at Kuai Xiong and saying: "You know, I found that only when I absorb a lot of yang energy can I live a little longer, but it won't exceed the ninth day. For this humble life, I've been searching everywhere for things with abundant yang energy. The Wustone Powder in the tomb was something I deliberately ate."

  Luo Qifeng's eyebrows furrowed instantly, and he said, "Are you crazy?"

  "Maybe, because you all can't experience the feeling of having lived for nine days and then dying once. Although I can revive again, the feeling of death is really terrifying, I'm afraid. This body of mine can't withstand the yang energy, but I have to search for it. Fortunately, there's the rhino horn supporting me."

  Ye Liu Xiang finished speaking and suddenly stared at Kuang Qi Feng with both eyes.

  Luó Qī Fēng was stared at by those eyes, his heart skipped a beat, and his throat suddenly became dry. Yè Liú Xiǎng laughed and suddenly leaned in close, wrapping his arms around Luó Qī Fēng's waist.

  Luo Qifeng was startled and moved back, but Ye Liuxiang seemed to be sitting in his arms, then opened his mouth and covered Luo Qifeng's lips. Endless inheritance.

  Luo Qi's eyes widened, and he quickly pushed Ye Liu Xiang away. Ye Liu Xiang hugged his waist and said, "Huh? You don't like kissing me, I thought you liked it."

  Luo Qifeng's face turned red and then black, he was already speechless.

  Ye Liu Xiang sniffed his nose and said: "You have a lot of yang energy on you, your breathing is very fast, I've never tried this method before, do you want to try it?"

  Ye Liuxiang's voice was clear and youthful, but it carried a hint of seduction. Ruo Qifeng's breathing suddenly became heavy, and just as Ye Liuxiang thought they would roll together, Ruo Qifeng suddenly pushed him away with an ugly expression. He stood up, his face cold, and said: "If you want to try, go find someone else. I don't like playing this kind of joke."

  He said, "Bang" and went out with a slam of the door.

  The sound of Wen Baiyu knocking on the door woke him up. He rubbed his eyes and looked at Wan Jingshou, saying: "What's wrong?"

  Wan Qi Jing Hou said: "Nothing's wrong, sleep a bit more, wake up and have lunch."

  Wen Baiyu nodded drowsily and fell asleep again.

  Ye Liu Xiang sat up, supporting her own cheeks, looking at Wan Jie Jing Hou and Wen Bai Yu, sighing: "Why is Wen Bai Yu so obedient to you? Lou Qi Feng obviously likes me, he sees that I will be impulsive, why is he so cold to me."

  Wan Qi Jing Hou heard the four words "Fu Fu Tie Tie" and couldn't help but laugh, Wen Bai Yu from head to toe is not "Fu Fu Tie Tie". No matter if it was a long time ago or now, although Wen Bai Yu looks gentle, he actually has thorns on his body.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou rarely spoke, afraid of waking up Wen Bai Yu, and said in a low voice: "Because he thinks you're joking."

  "What kind of thing is not considered a joke? I've always been locked in the tomb, I didn't do these things before, I just wanted him to kiss me, when he kissed me, my heart was very happy."

  Ye Liu Xiang said with a look of distress on his face, as if studying something.

  Until noon, Wan Xi Jing Hou got out of bed and went to prepare lunch first. Wen Bai Yu slowly got up afterwards.

  Ye Liu Xiang laughed and said: "You've slept for a long time."

  Wen Baiyu didn't want to sleep for so long either, but he was really exhausted and always felt like he hadn't slept enough.

  Just then, Luo Qifeng finally returned from outside and saw Ye Liuxiang still sitting on his bed, but he pretended not to see him and started packing his luggage.

  The train will arrive at the station in the afternoon. It's actually too early to collect luggage now, but Luo Qifeng really has nothing else to do.

  Ye Liu Xiang thought deeply for several hours, then tugged at Rong Qifeng's arm. Rong Qifeng lowered his head to look at him, and the young man revealed a hopeful expression, big eyes pitifully looking at him, with a palm-sized face revealing a weak expression.

  "What's wrong?"

  Ye Liu Xiang expressed the result of his deep thinking, saying: "Do you mind that I'm impotent? Actually, you don't need to mind this point. My body can make you feel comfortable, I..."

  He hadn't finished speaking when Ruo Qifeng's face turned even uglier, reaching a new level of unsightliness. With a loud "bang", he slammed the door and stormed out again.

  Ye Liu blinked her eyes and supported her cheeks with her hands, a delicate face scrunched up together, saying: "What's wrong again, is Uncle going through menopause?"

  Wen Baiyu: "......"

  Wen Baiyu's mind was left with only two words, "what the fuck", he felt that he might have woken up at the wrong time, otherwise why would he hear Ye Liuxiang and Luo Qifeng having such an explosive conversation as soon as he woke up?

  When eating lunch, Ruo Qifeng hadn't returned yet. It's estimated that he was really annoyed by Ye Liuxiang and didn't show up until the afternoon when they were about to get off the train. Ruo Qifeng grabbed his luggage and Ye Liuxiang wanted to talk to him, but Ruo Qifeng didn't even turn his head around, carrying his luggage and walking ahead first.

  Ye Liu Xiang bit her lip and followed behind, using her eyes to glance at Ruo Qi Feng, really couldn't figure out why Ruo Qi Feng was angry.

  Everyone got off the train and was going to drive from Yinchuan to Pingliang, then head to Kongtong Mountain.

  Everyone didn't know what Ershan was doing by bringing the branches of Jianmu tree to Kongtong Mountain, so they prepared for any situation and first found a hotel to stay in. Wan Kuang Jinghou went to prepare some tools and then rent a car, and set off early tomorrow morning.

  Wen Baiyu got off the train a bit tired, so Wan Jingshou let him stay in the hotel. Luo Qifeng was also a Daoist, and he knew what tools to bring, so he went with Wan Jingshou. Ye Liusheng himself wanted to follow, but Luo Qifeng completely ignored him.

  Wan Xi Jing Hou was afraid that something would happen to Wen Bai Yu, so he let Ye Liu Xiang stay with Wen Bai Yu in a room first, and then return to his own room after he came back.

  Ye Liu Xiang is sitting on the sofa watching TV, while Xiao Xue Hua is holding Egg Baby and sitting on the bed playing.

  Wen Baiyu made some hot water to drink, turned her head and saw Ye Liuxiang watching an idol drama. The male lead, who looked like a male god, was hugging the female lead, who looked like an ugly duckling, and they were passionately kissing.

  The leaves rustled with relish, a pair of lively big eyes staring at the kissing couple on TV.

  Because Ye Liu Rong's appearance resembles that of a young boy, and he is watching the kissing scene with such relish, Wen Bai Yu feels quite pressured.

  Wen Baiyu coughed and said, "What are you looking at?"

  "Look at TV, I also want Ruo Qi Feng to kiss me."

  "Hmph... Cough, cough, cough..."

  Wen Baiyu choked on a mouthful of hot water, coughing nonstop. Xiao Xuemu Hua hugged Egg Baby and jumped onto Wen Baiyu's back, stretching out vines to gently pat his back.

  Wen Baiyu almost choked to death, really don't know how to continue the conversation.

  There's more to come from Ye Liu Xiang, and it's going to be even more explosive.

  Ye Liu Xiang looked at him and seriously asked: "When you were with Wan Kuang Jing Hou, did you feel any pleasure?"

  Wen Baiyu: "......"

  Wen Baiyu's face turned bright red, and she almost wanted to find a seam in the ground to crawl into. But the boy's eyes were extremely pure, without any impurities, as if the perverted person was herself.

  "Quickly, what is the feeling of being at the bottom? Is it really comfortable?"

  Wen Baiyu was really at a loss for words this time, Ye Liuxiang asked very seriously, perhaps he really didn't know all along, and didn't even have the chance to communicate with his own right hand.

  Wen Baiyu thought that Ye Liuxiang was actually quite pitiful, he really couldn't imagine what it would be like to only live for nine days, and Ye Liuxiang's wings had been torn off during his nymph stage, leaving him with a disability.

  It wasn't until evening that neither Wang Jiehou nor Luo Qifeng had returned.

  Wan Xi Jinghou called him and said that he might be late coming back, so he should go eat first and come back at night to bring him a midnight snack.

  Wen Baiyu called out to Ye Liuxiang, then tucked Egg Baby into one of the pockets and a small Blood Jade Flower into the other, before heading downstairs to eat.

  They didn't want to go far and had dinner directly in the hotel's restaurant, ordering several characteristic dishes of Yinchuan, and regretted it afterwards.

  Wen Baiyu felt like vomiting when she smelled this smell, but Ye Liuxiang ate with relish and found everything fresh. Rebirth of a Low-key Life.

  Wen Baiyu couldn't hold it in anymore and asked Ye Liu Xiang to watch the egg baby and Xiao Xuemu Hua, then ran to the bathroom to vomit.

  After spitting out the phlegm, I felt a bit more comfortable. I scooped up some clear water to rinse my mouth and then washed my face. Just as I was wiping my face with toilet paper, I heard some noise coming from the cubicle in the bathroom.

  A voice came from a cubicle in the restroom, accompanied by moans/groans.

  "You damn... let go..."

  That voice was very restrained, with a hint of sobbing. Wen Baiyu's mind turned, and this voice seemed a bit like Zou Chengyi?

  It seemed to confirm Wen Baiyu's guess, and Wen Baiyu immediately heard the sound of Yi Feng.

  The wind's voice was very recognizable, with a hint of hoarseness, and laughed as he said: "Young master, shh - keep your voice down, or they'll hear you outside."

  Wen Baiyu: "......"

  Wen Baiyu was speechless for a moment, thinking that he had already heard enough, but then a "bang" sound came from the next room, as if someone was struggling. Zou Chengyi's voice said: "Don't touch me... damn it, I... I'm really in so much pain..."

  The wind's voice was like coaxing a child, softly and patiently saying: "Young master, don't move, I'm just touching, not doing anything, does it still hurt if I touch... right, good boy..."

  Suddenly it was Zou Chengyi's "ah" sound, his voice suddenly rose and said: "You damn thing, you cheated me again! I..."

  Wen Baiyu still wanted to wait for them to come out and say hello, but looking at the situation, they wouldn't be able to come out for a while. Wen Baiyu could only leave first and returned to the dining hall.

  They finished their meal and sat for a long time before seeing Yi Feng come out of the bathroom. He was wearing a black coat, with someone wrapped horizontally in his arms. Zou Cheng shrunk himself into a ball, covered by the coat, as if he wanted to cover his head too.

  Wen Baiyu smiled and waved at them, saying: "Yi Feng."

  Zou Chengyi obviously heard Wen Baiyu's voice, his back tensed up, and he immediately closed his eyes to pretend to be dead.

  Yi Feng calmly walked over with Zou Chengyi in his arms and then placed him on a chair.

  Zou Chengyi touched the chair and immediately let out a cold "hiss", then arched his body.

  Wen Baiyu couldn't help it and burst out laughing, saying: "What are you guys doing here?"

  He looked up and down at Ye Liu Xiang sitting next to Wen Bai Yu and said, "It should be the same as your goal."

  Wen Baiyu was slightly surprised, and Zou Chengyi said: "We've also heard about the disappearance of Jianmu's tree branch. Such a precious thing, only you guys wouldn't treasure it."

  Wen Baiyu touched his nose, feeling a bit embarrassed, and indeed, it was he who had misplaced the wooden branch.

  Wen Baiyu said: "Are you going up Kuangtu Mountain too?"

  Zou Cheng nodded and said, "Anyway, we're idle and have nothing to do. We collected the wooden branches together, and it took a lot of effort. We can't let someone take them away easily."

  Wen Baiyu said: "That's just right, we'll set off for Pingliang tomorrow, you all come together?"

  Zou Cheng nodded slightly and said: "Just give me a call when you set off tomorrow, I'll be here."

  Wen Baiyu said: "Right, you're also going to Kuangtong Mountain. Do you know what evil beast Zhou Muwang killed on Kuangtong Mountain?"

  Zou Chengyi looked somewhat bewildered, as if he didn't know what he was asking about. But Yi Feng nodded and said: "I've only heard that... it's one of the Four Great Fierce Beasts of ancient times, the Taotie."
