Chapter 68 Just Call Me Li Chuyi
The words "Mu Xueling" completely broke Ye Zhichen's icy face. His shrunken pupils suddenly turned into needles, and then his eyes became blurred and lost, falling into deep memories.
In his memories, there are happiness, sadness, anger, and grievances. After the long river of time, many of these messy memories have become blurred, or even forgotten, leaving only a few related feelings.
However, in his clear or vague memories, there is always a figure that is extremely clear and unforgettable. This figure accompanies his happiest memories, and he still feels that his heart is full of sunshine and joy when he recalls it. This is the most precious and important memory in his life, more than anything else.
The same figure also appears in his most painful, saddest, and angriest memories. Ye Zhichen doesn't want to remember these memories. He wants to forget them, but the more he wants to forget, the harder it is to forget, so that it becomes clearer and clearer. These memories always appear with happy memories. Whenever he thinks of them, even if he only touches them a little, he still feels like a knife cutting his heart even today.
In the past, every time he thinks of these painful memories, he becomes a little crazy and a little desperate, which makes him, who was originally suave and always had a gentle smile on his face, hysterical and people dare not approach him. At this time, people who know him can't help but show sympathy to him, while people who don't know him look at him coldly with the eyes of a madman. And these eyes make him more painful and more crazy.
Until later, as the butcher knife of time swung, he gradually became less crazy. This is not because he forgot these memories of that figure, but because he learned to be indifferent. He can't forget this figure, and he doesn't want to forget it. Since he can't forget it and doesn't want to forget it, and he is so painful because of it, then he will freeze his heart and treat it indifferently.
At least, he can still see that figure this way.
At least, he can also relieve some pain this way.
The suave and charming Ye Zhichen who always smiled was gone.
In the world, there was a lonely and cold drunkard named Ye Zhichen.
It was difficult for people to see the warm smile in memory on that face that was as cold as ice and full of vicissitudes.
Only when no one was around, occasionally, would a faint and almost invisible smile appear on his face, which was fleeting.
This smile was for that beautiful figure.
That beautiful figure had a beautiful name.
Her name was Mu Xueling.
Many years had passed, and it had been a long time since anyone had mentioned this name. Ye Zhichen even suspected that he was the only one in the world who often remembered the owner of this name, the one who always liked to tease him and fill his heart with love and pampering.
At this time, when he heard Baijie Daoren mention this name again, and told him that the eccentric little fat boy just now was actually her son, Ye Zhichen was shocked.
"Impossible!"
Without hesitation, Ye Zhichen said decisively.
However, seeing the Taoist Baijie looking at him silently with a complicated and painful expression on his face, Ye Zhichen hesitated.
With his heart in a mess, he clenched his fists tightly, and even his nails were embedded in his palms.
"How is it possible?"
After a slight silence, Ye Zhichen said another sentence, and there was even a hint of crying in his trembling voice.
The Taoist Baijie still didn't speak, but just looked at him complicatedly, shook his head slightly, and sighed deeply.
"Alas..."
There was another silence, and Ye Zhichen stared at the Taoist Baijie tightly, struggling to say: "I didn't save her back then, and I couldn't save her child. That child died in front of me, and there was no body left! How is it possible, how could he be Ling'er's child?!"
"Because, he was not destined to die. Because, he met a noble person. Because, the person who saved him was called Li Zai Tian." The Taoist Baijie, who had been silent all the time, finally spoke and said softly.
With a wave of his hand, he threw the jade slip that Li Chuyi gave him to Ye Zhichen, and Baijie Taoist slightly gestured.
"Take a look."
Reaching out to take the jade slip, Ye Zhichen held it tightly with his trembling hands and closed his eyes to sense it. After a while, he opened his eyes again, and his unbelievable eyes were full of joy, surprise, excitement and other emotions.
After a long time, Ye Zhichen finally calmed down and whispered: "Does he know?"
Baijie Taoist shook his head slightly: "That damn Taoist adopted him since he was a child, and didn't even tell him his Taoist name and name. How could he tell him his life experience? Moreover, this child's life experience is complicated and involved. If he knows his life experience, it will not be good for him."
After a pause, Baijie Daoist shook his head again and said with a wry smile: "When I first met this child, I felt that some things about him were strange, as if there was something hidden. Now that I have read the sound transmission jade slip of that bastard, some strange things are naturally clear. Moreover, this child is talented and eccentric. After being raised into a little bastard by his old bastard master, he has learned to disguise himself. He looks stupid and foolish, but in fact he is full of bad water. You say, such a smart but naughty character is not the same as Xueling, that girl?"
Hearing the words of Baijie Daoist, Ye Zhichen couldn't help but recall the beautiful figure who always loved to tease him, and a happy smile appeared unconsciously at the corner of his mouth.
Nodding slightly, Ye Zhichen asked again: "Then, does Xueqing know?"
"Not yet." Baijie Daoist shook his head slightly.
"Should I tell her?"
After a moment's thought, Baijie Daoist nodded: "You can tell her, but you must tell her that it's fine to know, but you must not disclose this matter, let alone let the child know. I believe she also understands how serious this is."
Ye Zhichen nodded slightly. After a moment's silence, he hesitated and said: "Why give him to me? Xueqing is her aunt, wouldn't it be better to let her take care of him? Moreover, Xueqing is a sensible person, knowing the seriousness of this matter, I believe she will not reveal a word to the child."
Baijie Daoist chuckled and said: "I know Xueqing is her aunt, and I also know that Xueqing will not reveal a word to the child. But it is precisely because Xueqing is her aunt that I dare not give him to Xueqing to take care of. You know, women are soft-hearted, and Xueqing is a person who is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. If they get along for a long time, I am afraid that Xueqing will... Not only will the girl not be able to control this little rascal, but he will also be able to see through her. "
After a pause, Baijie Daoist said, "As for you, I believe that with your feelings for Ling, you will definitely treat this child as well as Xueqing, and your control must be stronger than Xueqing, so you won't let this little ghost see anything. Besides, if it really doesn't work, you can just keep showing your cold face. I believe that little ghost will be too late to guess anything when he sees your cold face. "
Hearing Baijie Daoist's teasing, Ye Zhichen couldn't help but blushing slightly, and a hint of awkward smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Looking at Ye Zhichen's appearance, Baijie Taoist smiled happily, and then said: "In addition, I don't know what kind of skills that old bastard taught him. This kid's magic power is a bit strange, and even I can't see through it. And according to my observation, although this kid's cultivation is not weak, he has a lot of magic power but doesn't know how to use it, and can only use brute force. Your cultivation has already reached a great level, and your skills in magic are not weak, and your sword skills are world-famous. So, you can guide him so that this kid can at least have some self-protection power."
Ye Zhichen nodded, secretly thinking about what to teach Li Chu.
"Okay, that's it, you take him back first. After a few days, when I make his elixir, I will notify you to come." Baijie Taoist looked a little tired, indicating that Ye Zhichen could leave.
Ye Zhichen hurriedly agreed, knowing that Baijie Taoist must have been hard on the way to save Li Chuyi before, and after respectfully bidding farewell, he walked out.
Walking to the door, Ye Zhichen paused, turned around and asked: "Grandmaster, there is still something I don't understand."
After seeing Baijie Taoist nod, Ye Zhichen asked again: "You said that this child is called Li Chuyi, obviously he has the surname of his master. Then I wonder, what is the original name of this child?"
"You didn't finish reading the jade slip?" Baijie Taoist asked.
Ye Zhichen shook his head slightly, his face gloomy and said: "I only read half of it just now, and I was shocked and withdrew my mind, so I didn't finish reading it."
Baijie Taoist sighed, shook his head slightly, and said with emotion and sarcasm: "Why bother to give a name to a dying person. This child is called Li Chuyi."
Ye Zhichen's breath was choked, and his eyes couldn't help but burst out with a strong murderous intent.
"Asshole!"
