The moment he saw the sword blade, Wen Xun's palms were covered with an imperceptible thin layer of sweat.He didn't move or speak.He just stared blankly at the hand holding the sword, surprised by Deng Xiao's sudden action.

Deng Xiao didn't expect him to be so calm, he smiled and retracted his sword while saying: "If there is such a day, will the master be willing to die with the apprentice?"

He said dead words in a very ordinary way, as if he was talking about a very ordinary thing.

Wen Xun's expression did not change, and he replied slowly, "Death is very simple, but often weak people choose to use it to escape. In comparison, living people are braver."

Deng Xiao walked around the room and pushed open the two windows, "Master is right, those who are alive are braver."

He wiped the dust on the piano case with his hands, and said in a very relaxed tone, "Then what if you have to die?"

Wen Xun was stunned by this sentence, he had already guessed something, and asked, "What is your price?"

Before he could say this, Deng Xiao went out, walked to the balcony of the small bamboo building, put his hands there and looked around.This location is very high, you can see the Xiaoxiang Bamboo Sea tumbling with bamboo waves, and you can also see some things that don't belong to this Bamboo Sea.

or person, or thing.

The pots of colorful flowers last time were almost withered, and the branches and leaves were hanging lifelessly.

Knowing that Wen Xun was slowly approaching him, Deng Xiao suddenly turned around to face him and hugged him tightly, then smiled into the depths of the bamboo sea.

"Master." Deng Xiao whispered in his ear, "You haven't answered me yet, if you have to die, would you like to be with disciple?"

Wen Xun was hugged suddenly, he had been thinking about Deng Xiao's words, but he didn't dare to make him too emotional, so he could only try his best to relax him.

Wen Xun replied: "Do you want me to die with you?"

"Of course I would." Deng Xiao spat out these four words with an indescribable sense of satisfaction on his face.He unhurriedly let go of his embrace, and said with a smile, "Master will wait for me here for a while, and I will return as soon as I go."

Wen Xun's eyebrows twitched, and he watched his back disappear outside the bamboo gate.He never expected Deng Xiao to answer like this, and even suspected that he had heard it wrong.

No, why did Deng Xiao leave suddenly?Could it be that someone appeared nearby and he saw it?

After recovering her original body, Deng Xiao became more unpredictable than before.If he could speak, he would speak clearly and in detail, but if he could not speak, he would not open his mouth no matter what.

Wen Xun stopped thinking about it, and immediately went down the bamboo building, feeling an ominous premonition growing in his heart.As soon as he stepped out of the bamboo gate, Deng Xiao quickly turned back, holding a pheasant in his right hand and a bucket of water in his left.

Deng Xiao asked calmly: "Why did Master come out? Did he come to look for me?"

Wen Xun nodded following the words, "Where have you been?"

Deng Xiao put down the bucket and glanced at the poppies on the porch, "I went to fetch some well water, the flowers upstairs and downstairs were almost withered. I forgot to prepare dry food on the way, Master must be hungry, and I happened to put this poppy in a while." Chicken stew to nourish Master's body."

It took less than half an incense stick before and after, and his movements were too fast.

Wen Xun pretended not to show any suspicion, and wanted to help him but was stopped by Deng Xiao.

"Just leave this kind of rough work to disciples." Deng Xiao thoughtfully said: "Master, go back and sit down. It's windy outside, so don't catch a cold."

Wen Xun said yes, and followed the lantern night to toss around.Deng Xiao was so busy at the moment that he didn't have time to pay attention to him.Taking advantage of this moment, Wen Xun went back to the room.

Since this was the former owner's residence, there must be some places that he didn't notice.It's a pity that I was interrupted by Shuo Xuan last time, so I didn't have time to take a closer look.

The ribbon was dressed in white, and the violin was a gift from Qin Kuang...

Wen Xun glanced at the piano case, and landed on a row of bookshelves behind.He went over to read it carefully several times, and finally locked his eyes on the inscription next to the bookshelf.

"Flowers are not flowers, fog is not fog. Come in the middle of the night, go at dawn..." Wen Xun murmured, his brows tightened as he read.

You must know that this world is made up by the author of the original text, but the inscription on it is Bai Juyi's poem.It stands to reason that the history of the world is completely different from the trajectory of the present world, so there is no reason to see poems from the Tang Dynasty here.

There seems to be a thread hidden in it, constantly stirring Wen Xun's nerves.He couldn't rule out the possibility that there were book walkers like him in this world.Moreover, this person has a close relationship with the original owner, and is most likely one of the original owner's seven ex-boyfriends.

Wen Xun continued to look around the room, trying to find more clues here.His attention was attracted by the messy bed, and he went to the bed to tidy it up.There was nothing strange about the bed, not even the slightest unusual trace.

Wen Xunben decided to give up, turned over the pillow by accident, and found that there were a few pages of yellow paper underneath.It's like someone put it there on purpose, waiting for him to dig it out.

He glanced at the tear marks on the edge of the paper, quickly took out the strategy diary, and determined that it was the torn page from it.In order to avoid being seen by Deng Xiao who broke in suddenly, Wen Xun looked at it all at once.

"...It is said that if you come, you will be safe. Since you are here, you should do the task well. In order to leave a precious memory for yourself, starting today, I decided to develop the habit of writing a diary."

"...Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Wen Xun, Wen Xun of Wen Xun, Xun of Wen Xun. Today is my second day in this world, and my first strategy target is called Lantern Festival."

"...This terrible system actually asked me to attack a child!? But it is said that this Lantern will be seventeen this year, and for some reason he will never be able to grow up."

"...Well, Deng Xiao is still a minor. Others won't regard me as a perverted brother, right? Change it to eighteen, or nineteen. I like the number nine. The first The target should be raised as an apprentice first, if you are too young, you can't do it! This is the basic principle of being a human being!"

system! ?

Wen Xun froze for a moment, then continued to read.To his surprise, the original owner liked the number nine as much as he did.

"...I also have apprentices. It's my first time to be a master, so I feel embarrassed."

"...This little apprentice is really obedient, if you tell him to go east, he will never go west!"

"...Today, my little apprentice was bullied by disciples from other peaks. If I have the chance, I will definitely teach those people a lesson. If you dare to bully my Wen Xun's apprentice, you will eat a bear's heart and a leopard's guts!"

"...Sneaking down the mountain today, I was unlucky and was caught by the master master. Does the master feel that I am wrong? He has been staring at me for a long time. But I bought the candied haws he likes for the little apprentice and went back. , I can have fun secretly for several days."

"...Today is Deng Xiao's birthday, and he will have to go back to Fenglin Villa for a coming-of-age ceremony in two days. As a master, should I prepare some gifts..."

"...What's going on!? I haven't even started yet, yet why does the system prompt that the strategy is successful? The little apprentice has a heartbeat behind my back!??"

Another system...

The following content is mostly trivial daily life, some of which are only fragments, and the few pages belonging to Lantern Festival came to an abrupt end after the success of the strategy.

Wen Xun's hand holding the paper trembled slightly. He felt dizzy for a while, so he quickly supported the bedpost to stand firm.

"Master, are you resting?" Lantern knocked on the door.

Wen Xun hid those pages of the diary in a panic, and accidentally dropped them at his feet.He hastily bent down to pick it up, when the jade bells slid out along the cuff, making a series of crisp bells.

Fortunately, Wen Xun grabbed the jade bell first and returned it to its original position.

Before Deng Xiao was about to push the door open, Wen Xun went to open the door first, pretending to yawn.

"After resting for a while, I didn't sleep too deeply, and woke up again." Wen Xun lied without blushing, "Are you done with your work? You have worked hard."

Deng Xiao showed a smile, "Cooking for the master is hard work, but the master should not dislike the craftsmanship of the apprentice."

Wen Xun said with a smile: "I don't dislike it."

The master and apprentice came downstairs talking and laughing harmoniously, and a few simple side dishes were placed on the stone table.Deng Xiao went into the kitchen and brought the stewed chicken soup to the table.

In such a remote place far away from the busy city, it is not easy to find these ingredients, not to mention the person who cooks himself is Deng Xiao.

"Master, be careful that it's hot, and ask my apprentice to serve you soup." Compared with yesterday, Deng Xiao looked a little abnormal, sometimes innocent like a child, sometimes dark like a devil, completely unpredictable.

Wen Xun nodded, took the soup bowl and stirred it with a spoon.Although his brain was already occupied by those few pages of the diary, when he thought of what Deng Xiao said, he felt a chill again.

Did Deng Xiao realize something?Want to drag him to die with the child in his womb?Then...will he poison this soup?

Deng Xiao raised his eyes and asked with a smile: "What is Master thinking? Is it not to your liking? If it is too hot, let it cool for a while."

"Yeah." Wen Xun remained vigilant all the time, and put down the soup bowl as he said, and his suspended heart also fell.

"Master, don't worry, this disciple won't tamper with the soup." Deng Xiao seemed to see through his thoughts, but he kept smiling, "We have guests, but unfortunately, disciple forgot to make an extra serving, Master, what do you say?" what to do?"

Hearing the words suddenly, Wen Xun looked sideways in the direction of the bamboo gate, only to see Yue Xuan in purple walking slowly towards them.

He thought of the jade bell, and suddenly understood that the reason why Xuanhui appeared here was that he accidentally sent him a letter.

Shuo Xuan stopped a foot away from them, glanced at Deng Xiao with an indistinct expression, and frowned in displeasure.

He should have known earlier that this little white rabbit-like owner of Deng Shao Zhuang was not simple.

Shuo Xuan said in a deep voice, "What did you bring him here for?"

Deng Xiao said with a playful smile: "This is where Master lives, can't I come?"

"You are a murderer." Shuo Xuan said coldly, "Do you think this deity will allow you to take him away?"

"No, but I know you won't do it either." Deng Xiao suddenly pulled out the sword and put it on Wen Xun's neck, "Because I can't guarantee whether the sword of the Lord Wuxin is faster or my sword is faster."

Shuo Xuan's brows became tighter and tighter, but his words were still full of confidence, "You won't kill him."

"You are wrong. Only when Master dies, will I belong to me forever and completely." Deng Xiao smiled, and the smile was extremely pale.

He turned his head to face Wen Xun, and asked the same question as before, "If you have to die, is master willing to go to the underworld with his disciple?"

Wen Xun looked at him without blinking, and replied word by word, "I don't want to."
