I'm useless, but my apprentices are all gods who protect others.

Duan Yanyao just stretched out his hand, but Sheng Yi eagerly grabbed his hand first and pulled him onto the silver sword.

so close.

If he had arrived any later, Duan Yanyao might have been chewed up to the last bit.

Sheng Yi breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and asked, "Are you injured?"

Duan Yanyao lowered his eyes: "It's okay."

Sheng Yi remembered the way his left leg was limping when he ran, so he didn't ask any questions and found a place with few alien corpses to land.

Sheng Yi: "Why are you here? How did you find yourself here?"

Duan Yanyao was obedient: "I can't explain the reason. I have always felt Master's position since I came out of the formation. This time, seeing that Master failed to come back in time, and sensing that Master was in the Demon Realm, I asked Master's younger brother to send me away. coming."

induction?

Maybe it has something to do with the two of them joining the battle together.

Shengyi didn't think much about it, after all, this phenomenon is not uncommon.

She took Duan Yanyao into the house, but just after taking a step, Duan Yanyao took a breath because of the injury on his foot.

Sheng Yi had already noticed that he was injured and gave him a painkiller: "Why didn't you tell me if you were injured?"

Duan Yanyao lowered his eyes and pretended to be cautious: "Master will definitely be unhappy if I come here rashly. I don't want to cause any more trouble to Master."

She really doesn't want Duan Yanyao to appear here.

Firstly, the secret realm is full of dangers, and a wrong choice will lead to death. Secondly, she is staying here with the people of Qingjian Sect, and Sheng Yi does not want Duan Yanyao to come into contact with them.

The Qingjian Sect and the Changhong Sect were not related to each other, and Sheng Yi had to deal with the two because of the four of them, and he didn't want anyone to know about it.

Duan Yanyao said this, how could she still be unhappy? She sighed: "You came to me because you were worried about me, I won't be unhappy."

"This secret realm is not safe. If you choose wrongly, you will die. No one knows the outcome until the end. If you choose wrongly, you and I will both die."

"Since you already know about the dangers of Mirage from Granny Li, you shouldn't come. I know you want to help me, and this is a good starting point."

"But as your master, I don't want you to take risks with me. If you encounter something like this in the future, don't rush in again. Your own life is the most important, you know?"

Duan Yanyao raised his eyebrows: "Master, what you mean is that if you fall into a dead end, I can choose not to save you?"

Kindly: "Okay."

Duan Yanyao: "Why? This is a desperate act."

Sheng Yi: "Even I will fall into a dead situation, and you, as my disciple, are not able to save me. It's better not to come, and you can still live well."

Duan Yanyao was silent for a moment, then smiled with his eyebrows bent.

Although he is so weak, he always wants to protect others.

Duan Yan looked at Sheng Yi from a distance, and inexplicably remembered the illusory hug that Cen Wanwan gave him through the sunlight when he was Ayan in the fantasy world.

Although she is a virtual shadow, she is like the real sun.

If the person he met when he was young was her, his ending might be different.

I really want to hide her.

Duan Yanyao thought inexplicably.

Sheng Yi didn't know his apprentice's little thoughts, so he just said: "I'll use the transformation spell to turn you into a cat first. Now I sneak into the Green Sword Sect as a new disciple of the Green Sword Sect and stay with the disciples of the Green Sword Sect. , they don’t know my identity yet. But in the final analysis, we are all disciples of the sect. Maybe you will meet one day during the martial arts competition, and it will be difficult to explain then."

Duan Yanyao nodded. The purpose of his trip was to be kind. Now that he had found it, the rest would naturally follow her wishes.

So Duan Yanyao turned into a snow-white cat. Since her foot was still injured, Sheng Yi carried her sword back to the small courtyard.

As soon as they landed, the fake Wang Kun and fake Lan Sheng, who were sleeping under the tree, suddenly woke up. As if they sensed some bad aura, they curled up subconsciously and tried their best to reduce their sense of existence.

Chu Qiongxin and Zhong Yueling were waiting anxiously in the courtyard, and they were relieved to see that Sheng Yi was safe and sound. With a few kind words, the matter of going out was settled. The few of them did not expect that there would be a living cat in this dead city. After the surprise, they went back to the house to sleep not long after.

As soon as Duan Yanyao entered the room, the little snow leopard that had come to greet Shenyi immediately changed its attitude and growled at him. Shenyi scolded it for a few words, and then the little snow leopard went to the corner to shut up in aggrieved manner.

Duan Yanyao looked at Little Snow Leopard and knew at a glance that Meng Mu's soul was not in Little Snow Leopard.

It seems that this is really Meng Mu's calamity.

Duan Yanyao narrowed his eyes. Cen Wanwan had already explained the situation to him - the key to breaking the situation was to choose who would die in the end.

Duan Yanyao looked at Cen Wanwan who was sleeping, thoughtfully.

Cen Wanwan is a lucky person, so he may make the right choice, but if he makes the wrong choice, Meng Mu may die soon.

Meng Mu has long been an adult, but now he always appears in the form of a larvae.

If I remember correctly, Meng Mu often disappeared, and when he came back after disappearing, he would become younger.

He is growing in the opposite direction, getting younger and younger.

If Cen can't break the situation every night, the only thing waiting for Meng Mu is to disappear.

……

The next day when he entered the illusion of five thousand years ago again, Sheng Yi could not find Duan Yanyao's shadow for the time being.

Sheng Yi planned to ask him again when he returned to the living world, so he focused on Meng Mu.

Meng Mu has no intention of surrendering, but he also doesn't want to stay in Mirage City for a long time. After all, whether it is Mirage City or Chicheng, the riots of demons and beasts are raging in this area, which may have attracted Bianzhou's attention.

After everyone discussed it, they unanimously decided on the plan with the least casualties - to move out of Mirage City and build another village next to the previous demon village to stay away from disputes with the human race.

Meng Mu has been busy discussing the migration route with several subordinates in the past few days. He has already formulated a specific plan and plans to start implementation in half a month when the food, grass and other supplies are sufficient.

During this period, Chonglan came a few times, but Meng Mu did not stop him. Each time, he personally greeted him and took Chonglan to eat and drink tea.

Slowly, the brothers in Zhaotiantang began to criticize Meng Mu.

After all, Chonglan's identity is really special. The human race's city lord appears here in a swaggering manner. If he has any intentions, it is really hard to guard against it.

But Meng Mu still hasn't changed his attitude towards Chonglan.

The day of departure was set for three days, and Chonglan invited Meng Mu to his house for tea.

"Brother Meng Mu, this is the best Xuna tea. I brought it to you as soon as it was served. I remember you like drinking tea. Try it quickly!" Chonglan welcomed Meng Mu to his seat.

Xuna tea is a specialty of Bianzhou. Due to the complicated production process and small output, it has always been exclusive to the rich and powerful.

Meng Mu was not interested in this, but fell silent when he saw the faint ripples in the tea soup.

When Chonglan was young, Meng Mu did not have the habit of drinking tea.

I can't even eat enough, and I can drink enough water. How can I bother to ask whether the drink in my mouth is tea or water.

Now Meng Mu does drink tea because Donkey Laosi likes it and always makes a pot on his table.

How did Chonglan know that he often drank tea?

Meng Mu lowered his eyes, raised the tea cup to his mouth, smelled a hint of the aroma in the tea, and paused in his hands.

After Chong Siyan took away Chong Lan, he was worried that Meng Mu would influence Chong Lan and took revenge on Meng Mu in various ways, so he asked City Lord Gu to take action on his behalf.

During the days when he was imprisoned by City Master Gu, in addition to being beaten, he was also given various poisons.

Chong Siyan deliberately tortured him and asked City Master Gu to feed him poison. The amount of poison would not kill him, but within the scope of his self-healing, it would make him miserable.

Meng Mu remembered the taste of every poison.

Including the one in the tea in front of me.
