Ghost gate.

Yue Li stood under the window, sneezed unexpectedly, raised her hand to rub her itchy nose, and reached out to half-close the window in front of her.

She couldn't sleep.

Tomorrow morning, Bai Ying will leave the ghost gate, and she really doesn't want to see him off in front of so many people. After thinking about it, she might as well go to his door to say goodbye now.

Tingfeng Garden.

Yue Li stood in the courtyard, looking at his dark room with no lights. He hesitated for a while and slowly walked forward, standing under the window and softly called: "Bai Ying..."

After a while, there was no movement in the house, so I guessed that he might be sleeping soundly. He opened his mouth and hesitated. Finally, he took two steps back, jumped up to the roof, and sat bored on the ridge, looking at the dark night.

She walked through the ghost door and looked sideways at a side room, which was the house where she once lived.

After ten years in the ghost house, she really has no fondness or nostalgia for this place. If she had to say goodbye, Bai Ying would be the only one.

They met when they were six years old, led her into the ghost gate, and protected her for ten years. If anything happened to her, he would be the first to come forward! The ghost gate is a place where survival depends on strength. In the first few years after arriving, there was no one in the ghost gate.

No one cares about a six-year-old child.

Bai Ying ordered people to prepare a side room for her to stay in Tingfeng Garden.

When she was ten years old, it was her first mission, but because she was unwilling to kill someone, she was bruised and bruised. On the day she crawled back to the ghost gate covered in blood, he was standing in front of the bed with no clothes on.

If you think about it carefully, are you still childhood sweethearts?

Yue Li's eyes were deep, and for some reason he recalled that girl who was 30% or 40% similar to him. Her name seemed to be Wai Lian?

Save tears...

I heard that even the name was given by him.

Yue Li thought that she didn't care much about this person, but it only caused her to be reduced to a talking point, so she didn't want to see her. Furthermore, when she heard that he gave her this name, she felt a little troubled for some reason.

He must like her, right?

At this moment, Bai Ying walked in from the courtyard door under the moonlight. He looked up and saw her sitting on the roof in a white outfit, deep in thought. Her eyes were dark and bright, and there were ripples of light flowing in the darkness. It looked like

, seemed to be specially waiting for him, his feet slowed down and he stood still.

Yue Li shook her head to dispel the boring thoughts in her head. She supported her chin with one hand and looked down. She happened to meet those eyes face to face. She lifted her chin from her hand and looked a little surprised: He was not asleep?

Looking at this outfit, it looks like he went out for a trip and just came back?

Seeing him looking at her, Bai Ying flew towards the roof, stepped lightly on the tiles, walked to her side, pretending to be relaxed and asked: "You come to me to look at the moon again so late? Could it be that it's on my roof?"

Is it different from your courtyard?"

Yue Li was speechless. What used to be an excuse for making nonsense was now shooting herself in the foot. She thought about it for a long time, but she had nothing to say. She guessed that this was just a casual remark he made, and he didn't really mean to answer it.

What was it? Then he cleared his throat and said, "I just have insomnia. I want to say goodbye to you in advance."

Hearing this, the pretended relaxed look on Bai Ying's face suddenly froze. He heard clearly and knew that she would not see her off tomorrow. A fleeting disappointment flashed across her face, and she turned and looked into the distance: "That's right.

I have insomnia, so I might as well stay a little longer. I don’t know when we will see each other again." His thoughts gradually drifted away.

In the past, the two of them would often drink wine together late at night, watch the stars and the moon, and talk about everything. When remembering the past, they couldn't help but reflect on today. When did their relationship become like this?

Yue Li was silent for a moment. When she turned her palm, she held a piece of cyan talisman paper between her fingers and handed it over: "When the Feng Dynasty comes, find an uninhabited corner of your residence, dig a hole and bury it."

Bai Ying retracted his thoughts and looked around. He saw that the talisman paper was stacked in two layers, and there were purple-red runes on the paper. He had never seen it before. Knowing her, he could almost guess what it was without even thinking about it.

Without reaching out to pick it up, he pretended to be puzzled and said in a doubtful voice: "What is this?"

"The teleportation talisman is thousands of miles away from Fengchao. The journey alone will take three months. If something happens, I won't be able to make it in time. Having this teleportation talisman can save a lot of trouble."

"This is the only talisman given to me. What should I do with the mission?"

Yue Li raised her face and endured the pain in her raised arms: "What else is more important than you?"

Bai Ying was stunned, and her eyes suddenly lit up under the moonlight: "Am I important?" He had never thought that he still had the word "important" in her heart. This was unexpected.

Yue Li frowned and couldn't help cursing: "There's so much nonsense! What if you don't want it?"

"Of course!..." He blurted out subconsciously, but felt bad about it. He hesitated and added, "I appreciate the kindness." As far as he knew, the Ji tribe was good at using spiritual power to make paper and draw talismans with blood, and their blood could

Connecting yin and yang, this teleportation array is extremely useful. Even if she is thousands of miles away and will be there in a moment, it is still left to her to defend herself.

Yue Li was stunned on the spot: Does this mean rejection?

When she moved her gaze from the face to the talisman in her hand, she couldn't help but feel angry. She was being looked down upon! Did she think she couldn't accomplish anything without this talisman?

Apparently, Yue Li was just sending a talisman, but in reality it was her reluctance to give up on him and the relationship between the two of them. How could she be so embarrassed to be rejected like this? She couldn't help but feel angry, and she immediately took back her hand and tried to get rid of her.

Er tore the talisman, raised his hand and threw the torn talisman paper in the air.

Bai Ying was stunned, and then wanted to reach out to stop him: "Yue Li!" But he was a step too late. He could only watch the fragments being carried by the wind, turning into residual spiritual power in mid-air, and dissipating. He couldn't help but feel sad:

"What are you doing?"

Yue Li stood up and patted the dust behind her. Yun Danfeng said softly: "If you don't want it, it's useless to keep it." She raised her feet to leave.

Bai Ying smiled sadly and said: "Yueli! Did you know that there is something in this world that you want but can't have?" Just like his feelings for her, even though the love is deep, the relationship is shallow in the end. How dare he... and how can he hope for it?

She is an earthly immortal who lives forever and never dies, while he only spends a few decades in a hurry. Saying no to something he likes is a matter of weighing the pros and cons, but it is also a choice.

The word "willingness" has always been dripping with blood, just like removing bones and cutting flesh, how can it be so easy?

Yue Li suddenly looked back, looking at his eyes that were still trying to talk, but seemed to understand but not understand. What do you want but can't have? She also has it! For example, the artifact of her Ji clan, and the deep friendship between them like family members.

.

"Bai Ying, you and I have known each other for ten years. You should know that I don't like to owe anyone the most. I don't care about much in this life. Most of them have been lost. You are the only one I don't want to lose. You used to protect me.

Now you are tired of me, and your future in Fengchao is uncertain. Unfortunately, there is nothing to give you, only this talisman..."

She only hoped that if something happened to him one day, she would be able to catch up and not be the last one waiting for news.

In the past, the Ji Dynasty was overthrown and the Ji clan was destroyed.

She just couldn't do anything. The feeling of waiting for the bad news was too painful and she really didn't want to experience it again.

Bai Ying's eyes were burning, and he walked slowly towards her: "You don't owe me! Never before, and never will again. From the past to the present, everything I do comes from my heart, and I have never wanted you to do anything for me.

, I just hope you are well."

Yue Li said solemnly: "Of course I also wish you well!"

Bai Ying stood still one step away from her, looking at those phoenix eyes and unable to move away, with those words stuck in his heart. He knew that if he didn't ask, he might never have a chance: "Why don't you understand? You are the only one who is good."

, it’s natural for me! Yue Li, now I just ask you, do you have me in your heart, even for a moment? "

Yue Li didn't know what to do, her heart felt a little tight, she took a step back and looked around: "Of course I have you in my heart, otherwise why bother..."

Bai Ying shook his head and interrupted what she was saying. He saw her taking a step back and taking a step closer. There was sadness in her eyes, but she had a tough attitude on her face: "You know what I'm talking about, but you still want to talk to me."

How long can you keep pretending to be stupid?"

She panicked.

It's not that Yue Li doesn't understand, but she insists that the relationship between them is just like family members, which is great. Just like facing Jiang Feng, she can flirt with him unscrupulously and have the idea of ​​​​sleeping with him, but when she faces Jiang Feng

Bai Ying, however, always felt that something was wrong.

"It's getting late, you should take a rest earlier." After saying that, she turned around and tried to escape.

But Bai Ying refused. He held her wrist in his palm and asked patiently: "Are you afraid of me? Or do you just look down on me? Would you rather tease a stranger than respond to me?"

Yue Li looked back in shock: "Are you following me?"

Bai Ying slowly closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she tried her best to hold back the sadness in her eyes: "I wanted to look for you that night, but I happened to see you going out. Otherwise, I didn't know that you still have such a side. Yue Li, you are sincere.

like him?"

Hearing this, Yue Li struggled to take her wrist back, her face already a little ugly: "Bai Ying, in what capacity are you questioning me? A friend? Or a brother? Or..."

Bai Yingdao: "I like you!"

Those four words were like a thunderbolt striking her ears. Yue Li paused as she looked at him staring at her intently, his eyes firm and hot. The unspoken words stopped at her lips, and her lips trembled and slowly closed.

He lowered his eyes thoughtfully, and his initially flustered mind gradually calmed down.

How could she not understand?

It's just a matter of deceiving myself, thinking that this is not a relationship, or even an illusion. Perhaps Bai Ying has been with her for ten years, and has mistakenly thought that it is a relationship? Otherwise, there would be no such thing as crying.

Thinking of this, Yue Li was silent for a moment, raised her eyes and asked again: "Do you like me? Where are you crying? Bai Ying, do you like this face or me?"

Bai Ying looked pained, and without even thinking about it, she blurted out her defense: "If she hadn't been similar to you, how could I have...Besides, you never asked me about what happened back then, and I didn't have anything to do with it."

she……"

Seeing that he was going too far, Yue Li couldn't help but turn pale, and hurriedly raised her hands to cover her ears: "That's enough!" She took two steps back, raised her eyes to look at him and stopped talking, then slowly put down her hands, her eyes

She said with sadness: "Bai Ying, isn't it good to be like this?"

Bai Ying froze on the spot: It's good? Does she want to ignore the mistakes and regard the tears as hers? So she stepped forward again and stretched out her hand to pull: "No! It's not like that."

Yue Li didn't want to tangle with him anymore, so she flew into the air with a single step, looked at him and said coldly: "Bai Ying, if you still care about our ten-year friendship, this matter ends here!" With that, she turned around and jumped.

Go up to another rooftop and quickly disappear into the night.

Bai Ying's mid-air hand clenched into a fist and slowly retracted it.

In his desperation just now, he was just explaining to Tong Yueli, and what the hell did he say? It was a fact that she was lying on his bed in tears, and it was also a fact that she was naked, but he actually taught her to listen to that?

At first, I just wanted to ask her what was in her heart, but the more she said, the more she said, and the more she said, the more mistakes she made.
