Chapter 253: [Mount Longxue] Bastard

"I've been waiting for you for a long time. You're finally awake."

In the silent room, this voice was strange and distorted. If Chu Wanning could open his eyes, he would find that Shi Mei was sitting by the bed, gazing at him with a smile, like a spider looking at a living creature that had fallen into its web.

"How was it? Did you sleep well?"

Chu Wanning did not immediately answer. He moved a bit and found that his spiritual power had only recovered twenty percent. Moreover, his hands were tied by the Immortal-binding Rope and his eyes were covered by a black ribbon.

"… …"

At this time, there was no use panicking. Chu Wanning had always been fearless. He knew very well what kind of result he wanted, so he also knew how to deal with it calmly. In his two lives, he had only been at a loss in front of one person.

Apart from that person, no one would make him panic.

So Chu Wanning was silent, slowly recalling the fragmented memories and the situation before he fell unconscious. Before his consciousness drifted, he had intermittently heard some movements around him. Now he was trying his best to piece together those fragmented words.

But at this time, the door to the secret room opened with a rumble. Nangong Liu had returned. He was holding a pile of fresh and juicy oranges. As soon as he entered, he shouted, "Dear brother, I've picked the oranges. I picked the ones with small circles at the bottom. These are especially sweet … "Before he finished speaking, he saw Chu Wanning on the bed." Ah? Dear brother, you're awake? "

Hearing this name, Chu Wanning's originally very pale face became even more gloomy.

Dear concubine … Concubine Chu?

Then the so-called dear brother is … …

Shi Mei took the oranges from Nangong Liu, smiled and patted his head, saying, "You did well. But I have something to say to this Concubine Chu. You go out first and play by yourself for a while. "

"Can't I stay here and play? I can help you peel the oranges. "

"It's not good for you to stay." Shi Mei said, "There are some words that adults can listen to, but children can't."

Nangong Liu muttered in confusion, turned around and left.

For a moment, the room was very quiet. Only the sound of breathing and the occasional crackling of candlelight could be heard.

Shi Mo picked a tangerine and skillfully peeled it, removing the white strands. While he was doing this, he chatted with Chu Wanning casually. "Did you hear who that person was?"

"…"

"You shouldn't be unfamiliar with his voice."

After peeling the tangerines, he brought them to Chu Wanning's lips. "Try it. These tangerines on Jiao Mountain were personally planted by Xu Shuanglin. He's very proficient in this field, so they should be very sweet."

Chu Wanning turned his face away.

Shi Mei said slowly, "Look at you, throwing a tantrum as soon as you wake up."

After a moment of silence, Chu Wanning asked coldly, "Where is he?"

"Who?"

"You know who I'm talking about."

Shi Mei raised his eyebrows slightly. "You want to ask about Mo Ran?"

"…"

Seeing that he was silent, Shi Mei smiled gently. "You really care about him. The first thing you say when you wake up is to look for him. You don't even ask who I am. It's not worth it for a person who has trampled on you for half of your life. "

The blindfolded and bound man pursed his lips, and the lines of his jawline became more and more haggard.

Shi Mei stared at him for a while, feeling that the evil fire in his chest was gradually growing stronger. But he prided himself on being calm, and would never do anything in a hurry.

People should eat gracefully, without showing their teeth and without leaving any residue. Eating like the Emperor Ta, who swallowed his flesh and bones together was too rushed, leaving only an empty bowl before he could chew the delicious food.

That was the reincarnation of a hungry dog, and Shi Mingjing didn't like it.

So, even though his lower body was burning, he still slowly poured fresh juice on his celestial vegetables and rubbed the texture of the meat. He waited until it was crispy and fragrant, then he put it into his stomach with small bites.

"Also, let me ask you a question. Don't you want to eat the orange that's sent to your mouth? "Shi Mei chuckled." You're so stubborn, how did you serve the Emperor Ta in the past? "

"Take it away."

"I think it's better for you to eat it. You haven't had a drop of water these days, and your lips are cracking."

Chu Wanning only gritted his teeth and said, "Where's Mo Ran?"

Shi Mei stared at him for a while, and slowly stopped laughing.

"Whether it's this life or the previous one, whether you have memories or not, you only have Mo Ran in your eyes. Shi … "He knew he was at a loss for words, so he immediately stopped.

But he missed a trace of Chu Wanning's trembling.

Shi Mei narrowed his eyes. "Tell me, what's so good about Mo Ran?"

He looked down at Chu Wanning, and saw the last bit of blood on his lips slowly fading.

"That person is impulsive, brainless, and his thoughts are naive and ridiculous. His character is also not good. What do you see in him? "

"… …"

"His face? Spiritual power? Sweet mouth? "

After all, he had suppressed his bestial desires for so long. The more he spoke, the more obvious the smell of blood in his voice became.

Especially when he saw Chu Wanning begin to bite his lips, as if trying to suppress some kind of emotion, Shi Mei felt his mouth dry up.

His words began to run wild in a more intimate direction.

"Or his ability in bed?"

Anger appeared on Chu Waning's pale face. Her face turned red from anger. "Shut up."

Shi Mei did not intend to shut up. He had finally gotten this man, and if he did not thoroughly play with him, how could he stop? He said with a smile, "Chu Fei, you still don't know that after you died in the previous life, Mo Ran gave you the posthumous title of Qingzhen."

He was interested in capturing the slightest of expressions on Chu Wanning's face, and his eyebrows curved more and more.

"It sounds a bit funny, but it's also quite appropriate. In the end, in this life and the previous life, you are indeed clean, and he is the only one who has tainted you. But in this way, there is actually no comparison. "Shi Mei said slowly," You have never tried anyone else, so naturally you only think that he is the best. "

His fingertips slid down inch by inch.

The tip of his nose, his lips, his chin, his Adam's apple.

Chu Wanning trembled slightly, and the veins on his wrists bulged. He wanted to break free from the Immortal Binding Rope, but in the end, he could not move.

"Don't waste your energy. Noble Consort Chu wants to be untied, and you want to know Mo Ran's whereabouts, I can satisfy you. " He changed the topic, "However, you are my trophy, so you should play a round with me first, right?"

"… … What do you want to do."

Shi Mei smiled, "I want to take your mind away from that person a little bit. Don't keep thinking about him, think about me, how about it? "

"You are the person who used the Gu in the previous life. What is there to think about? "

If one listened carefully, they would be able to hear the suffocation and pain in Chu Wanning's voice.

Chu Wanning seemed to be trying his best to suppress some kind of emotion, but he could not suppress it and it was about to burst out.

Shi Mei smiled, "That's right, it is me. But Noble Consort Chu, why don't you guess who my real identity is? "

"If you want to say it, then say it. If you don't want to say it, then forget it."

"Sigh, when will you stop being so fierce." Shi Mei sighed and said, "How about this, Noble Consort Chu once said that big gambles are harmful to the body, small gambles are good for the heart, but if you want to do it, it will be harmful to the body. Why don't we make a bet? "

"… …"

"However," Shi Mei paused, "Before we begin, I have to take a slight offense and take a look at how many clothes you are wearing."

Although Chu Wanning did not say anything, the exposed lower half of his face involuntarily tensed up. Shi Mei's expression became even gentler. He counted them one by one, and in the end, he counted a total of five robes.

"Then I'll give you five chances. If you answer correctly within five times, I'll tell you where Mo Ran is." After pausing for a moment, he continued, "However, every time you get a wrong answer, I'll take off one of your clothes. If Noble Consort Chu still does not answer correctly after all five robes are removed, then … … "

He did not continue and only smiled, his light pink tongue subconsciously licking his lips. Then, he sat there quietly, waiting for Chu Wanning's guess. Chu Wanning did not speak, but he was not in a hurry. He continued to wait calmly.

At this moment, he was very free. He had plenty of time.

However, as time passed bit by bit, Chu Wanning still did not give any response. Shi Mei raised his eyebrows — — he had plenty of time, but he might not have the patience.

"Why don't you guess."

Chu Wanning finally said, "Get lost."

Shi Mei's expression became gloomy, "… … Now that you are in my hands, you should know what you can do and what you can't do."

"… …"

"Chu Wanning. You don't have the leverage to negotiate with me. The Emperor Ta's brain is not good, so he might not be able to argue with you and sometimes let you do as you please. But I am different. "

Shi Mei coldly said, "You are in my hands, so it is better for you to be obedient."

He waited for a while, and seeing that Chu Wanning still did not speak, his tone became harsher, "Don't refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit. Don't think that I can't do anything to you if you don't speak. "

As she said this, her slender white fingers moved up and touched Chu Wanning's waist belt. Then she slowly stroked the belt, her fingertips sliding over it like a knife cutting a fish.

"Listen, I will count to three. If you don't speak, you will bear the consequences yourself." Shi Mei said, his eyes shining.

He actually did not know whether he wanted Chu Wanning to guess or not Chu Wanning. But at this time, it did not matter whether he guessed or not. There was no turning back, and he only thought about how to uncover his true face.

It had to be exciting enough, bloody enough. After all, the man in front of him had played with him for two lifetimes. Now that he had won, he had to carefully lick the fruits of his victory.

"One."

There seemed to be a glimmer of victory in front of him.

"Two."

What would Chu Wanning do? Anger? Grief? Fear?

He waited and watched, his lips slightly moving.

"Third … Alright, Consort Chu is indeed very chaste. It's no wonder that the Celestial Treading Monarch is addicted to you." Shi Mu was half-joking and half-serious. "Since you don't want to guess, let's do something more violent. You … … "

"Hua Bi'nan."

His voice was cold.

Shi Mei's fingers slightly paused. He originally wanted to untie Chu Wanning's waist belt, but then he smiled, "You guessed half right. Continue? "

"… …"

He revealed a fox-like craftiness. This kind of craftiness may appear wretched on other people, but Shi Mei was so elegant, like a lotus flower shining on the water at all times.

He firmly believed that Chu Wanning would not guess the last layer of the truth. He was proud, he — —

"I would rather you were really dead."

Shi Mei's smile froze on his face. After a while, he asked, "What did you say?"

The person on the bed had a very cold voice, without a trace of warmth.

"Last life, that crack in the sky, that heavy snow. I would rather you were really dead. "

Shi Mei stared at him, the prepared words suddenly had nowhere to pour out, and unexpectedly became speechless.

He had already raised half of his hand, but it was suspended in the air, not knowing where to go. He was suddenly at a loss.

"Shi Mingjing." A soft sigh, but it was like a bee sting to the absent-minded person, "Is it you?"

"… …"

Although it was a question, there was not the slightest bit of raised tone.

Shi Mei lowered his eyelids, and for a moment, no one could see his expression clearly. After a while, he chuckled, "I'm not dead, I've disappointed you."

He did not want to admit defeat, but there was already some flagging interest in his tone.

Shi Mei said, "I am indeed the Shi Mingjing from your last life. I came from your previous life, the world of the Emperor Ta. I am not the same person as the little friend who has always been by your side in this life. "He paused," You have to keep your word, I'll untie you. "

As he spoke, he untied the Binding Fairy Rope, and then put his hand on Chu Wanning's ribbons, and with a little force, took them off.

The peach blossom eyes met the phoenix eyes, and the two looked at each other without any ripples.

"Greetings to Shizun."

Chu Wanning had already prepared himself, but now he was even more gloomy. He looked at him, "You still know that I'm your Shizun."

Hearing him say this, Shi Mei smiled gently, but only now did he know what kind of sharp dagger was hidden under his gentleness.

"Yes, of course I know. You held the umbrella for me, I've never forgotten. "

Chu Wanning looked very weak, but this did not change the innate stubbornness between his eyebrows. He stared at Shi Mei for a long time, and then his lips opened and closed, and his words were crushed, extremely cold, "You bastard."

Shi Mei smiled, "You let me win." He paused, and then asked again, "But when did Shizun guess my identity? My last life? "

Chu Wanning did not answer, and only looked at him coldly.

There was anger in those eyes, but the most abundant was disappointment.

Shi Mei pondered, "No, it can't be your last life. If you already knew that I was Hua Bi'nan in your last life, you should have told Huaizui when you tore open the space-time rift. "

He raised his eyelashes, "It's this life. Or should I say, not too long ago? … When you were at Dragonblood Mountain, didn't you more or less hear the conversation between Mo Ran and me? "

"… …"

"Forget it, it's not important." Shi Mei smiled, "In any case, you're in my hands now, and you can't escape."

Chu Wanning grew more and more silent.

In fact, among his three disciples, Shi Mei was the one he couldn't see through the most. At that time, he was willing to accept this disciple because Shifu Mi was respectful, gentle, able to worry about people's worries, and could treat people kindly. These were the qualities that Chu Wanning admired greatly. He could not do it himself, so he admired him even more, and so he accepted this disciple.

But sometimes, he always felt that something was wrong. For example, when Xue Zhengyong said that Shi Mei was an orphan he picked up in the chaos of the war, but when Shi Mei talked about his life experience, he would sometimes say something that did not make sense. That kind of attitude was very much like someone who told a lie and then forgot the details.

There were also times when Shi Mei's attitude towards things would suddenly become a little strange — like a well-tamed ferocious dog. It looked obedient, but once it smelled blood, it could not help but show a murderous look.

But after observing for a few years, he had never seen Shi Mei do anything unjust. Chu Wanning felt that his eyes were playing tricks on him, and that he mistook a beautiful person for a green-faced fanged beast.

He was like a hedgehog, his whole body was very sharp, and only his abdomen was soft.

He hid his disciples, and all the people who treated him well, under his soft abdomen.

When it came to Shi Mei, he had wavered between trust and distrust. He also had reservations and tested him, but in the end, he chose to trust him. So the knife stabbed into the hedgehog's abdomen, and blood flowed out.

Shi Mei asked, "How much of the past do you remember?"

"… …"

He asked again, "Why didn't you just stand by and watch? Why did you have to stop me? "

"… …"

There were too many resentments in the previous life, and finally, in this life, he could ask. Shi Mei did not want to stop, and asked endlessly, "Why didn't you kill the Emperor Ta in the end, and even help him reincarnate?"

Hearing the last sentence, Chu Wanning finally raised his eyes, "He is different from you."

Shi Mei paused for a moment, "What's the difference? If you say that I have a vicious mind, isn't his hands full of blood? "

Chu Wanning stared at him, "You are the one who planted the Gu. You know it yourself."

"So what? Even if I planted the Gu, isn't he the one who killed the people? " Shi Mei said, "In the previous life, you saw it with your own eyes. The lives of half of the people, Xue Zhengyong, Wang Chuqing, Jiang Xi, Ye Wangxi … … Who killed these people?"

He slowly raised his hand and looked at his slender fingers with round nails.

What a pair of delicate and clean fingers, soft and delicate, without a speck of dust.

Shi Mei narrowed his eyes and laughed, "Could it be me?"

"… …" Anger surged, and he was speechless for a moment.

"I don't want to kill the Ru Fengmen, nor did I want to kill Xue Zhengyong. So, you shouldn't look for me to collect debts. "Shi Mei said," What did I do? I just planted a Gu Flower on him. I have lived for so long, but I have never killed anyone with my own hands. "

Shi Mei continued to smile, "So, in the end, he was the one who took the knife, and stabbed the people. It doesn't have much to do with me. That Eight Bitter Everlasting Regret Flower won't bring him any new hatred. All of his desires belong to himself, and the Gu Curse can only magnify them. If you want to blame this on me, I will feel wronged. "

With every sentence he spoke, the disgust in Chu Wan-ning's heart increased. In the end, when she heard that he actually felt wronged, Chu Wan-ning suddenly raised her eyes. Her gaze was as cold as ice. "What do you have to feel wronged about?"

"He was the one who did it. Why should Shizun blame me?"

"Don't you know what kind of person he is?"

Shi Mei said, "Of course I know what kind of person he is. The one who doesn't know is you, Shizun."

A strand of white silk from the tangerine got stuck between his fingers. Shi Mei found it dirty, so he took out a clean white handkerchief and wiped it. Then, he raised them one by one, "Why did Mo Ran go to the Ru Fengmen? Because he has hatred in his heart. Why did Mo Ran kill Xue Zhengyong? Because he has fear in his heart. Why did Mo Ran humiliate you? Because he has desires in his heart. "

As Shi Mei said this, he glanced at Chu Wanning, "When someone stabbed him, he couldn't forgive. When someone gave him benefits, he couldn't reject it. In front of a beauty, he couldn't restrain his desires — this is his nature. "

Chu Wanning gritted his teeth and said, "Shi Mingjing. You erased his pure kindness, magnified the hatred in his heart by ten thousand times, and then said that everything he did was because of his own desires. Don't you think you're ridiculous? Who doesn't destroy the world when their hatred is magnified to the extreme? You? "

"Then who made him have hatred? Who made him have ambition in his bones? Who made him have desires in his heart? " Shi Mei laughed, "If he had the ability, his heart would be as pure as a child's, he wouldn't have any bad intentions. That Everlasting Hatred Flower wouldn't have been able to stir up any waves. So you should blame him for having a dirty mind. He's just a normal person. "

Hearing this, Chu Wanning's expression became very ugly. He was about to speak again when Shi Mei added another sentence.

"People have to be responsible for their own desires. There's nothing to argue about this."

"… …"

If Chu Wanning had wanted to talk to him before, at this point, he suddenly felt that there was no need to say anything, and it wasn't worth saying. Chu Wanning turned his face away.

Shi Mei saw his expression and shook his head, "Shizun, you're too biased towards him."

"… …"

"In your eyes, he has a reason for everything he does, and it's understandable."

"Then tell me, who should I understand?" Chu Wanning was extremely cold, "You?"

"… …" Shi Mei was silent for a moment, then smiled, "So Shizun still likes him?"

Chu Wanning's gaze was like the reflection of the moon on an ice lake.

"So, in my previous life and this life, I competed with Shizun for two lives. Even if I won, I still couldn't compare to him."

Chu Wanning said coldly, "What do you have to compare to him?"

Shi Mei narrowed his eyes, "Do you really only have these few words to say about me? Nothing else? "

Chu Wanning didn't immediately reply. Looking at his expression, he seemed to be seriously thinking for a moment. Then he raised the curtain of his eyelashes, extremely cold and calm.

"There is."

Shi Mei smiled, "What is it?"

Chu Wanning said expressionlessly, "You don't have to compare yourself to Mo Ran. You can't even compare to Xu Shuanglin. At least he still has feelings, and dares to admit what he did. He's not like you, Hua Bi'nan. "

In the end, he didn't even call him Shi Mingjing anymore.

Chu Wanning said, "You're a bastard."
