Chapter 60 Twin Curse
Xiaohuan saw Lin Qian's slightly worried expression, so he avoided the two soldiers and walked to Lin Qian and said, "I'll talk to Wanyi and come back later to tell you what I found."
"You didn't do anything, did you?" Lin Qian pulled Xiaohuan's sleeves and looked nervously at Xiaohuan and asked.
The two soldiers waited here before Xiaohuan came back. Although it was polite without explaining the reason, Lin Qian was still worried about what Xiaohuan had done that made Wan Yi intolerable. The last thing she wanted was for Xiaohuan to cause something else to disturb her hard-won peaceful life.
"Of course, it's okay, otherwise he wouldn't have sent soldiers and would have come here by himself." Xiaohuan raised a light smile and said, "However, what he wants to tell me must be a big deal."
"Why don't you worry at all, just in case..." Lin Qian wanted to say that in case he was ready to capture.
"I won't be back late." Xiaohuan turned around and left. When he walked to the door, he suddenly looked back at Lin Qian and said, "Are you worried about me?"
Lin Qian was stunned and sighed, "Yes, of course I'm worried, so come back early."
"Good." Xiaohuan found the feeling of being waited and worried for the first time. This different experience made him feel very secure and happy, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were stained with a smile.
In the past, he was casual. If he wanted to go, he would go back and return. Because of the trust of the clan, no one had ever worried about him. Even this time Kingman calculated that he was going to suffer, and no one of the clan had never worried about it. He has always been like this, and he has never cared about anyone, nor has anyone cared about him.
But just now, Lin Qian's eyes were full of worry, saying that she was worried about him.
Lin Qian followed outside the door and saw Xiaohuan sitting in a sedan chair. Instead, she leaned against the doorrail in a daze. She was not so much worried about what would happen to Xiaohuan, but more worried about what would happen to her. She has always wanted to go back to her previous life, simple, not to worry about anyone, and not to care about anything other than business.
Although Xiaohuan was in the sedan chair and did not look back, he knew that Lin Qian had been leaning against the doorrail to look at the direction he left until the sedan chair passed the corner. He was sure that Lin Qian could not see him before he calmed down. There was a faint smile on the corners of his lips. Lin Qian may be really worried about himself...
The road to the palace is not long, but the national division ordered the soldiers and the sedan chairmen to treat each other with courtesy and not careless details. If Xiaohuan is unhappy, he will be killed.
This is the first time that the national teacher has talked about the beheading, so several soldiers carefully instructed the sedan chairman, so at this moment, the sedan chair does not feel any shaking at all, and the speed naturally slows down.
"Go faster." Xiaohuan's lazy voice came from the sedan, which was a little impatient. I agreed with Lin Qian to wait for him to go back, so everything should naturally be faster.
"Yes." The soldier answered and quickly ordered the sedan chairman to speed up.
The sedan chair was carried directly into the Taoist temple. Xiaohuan saw Wan Yi standing with his hands behind his back, waiting for him with a sad and happy expression. As soon as the soldiers and the sedan chair man saw Wan Yi, they quickly retreated respectfully, for fearing that they would not be able to get out for another second.
Although he didn't have much debut in the past, everyone who had seen him knew that he was an old man with silver hair and chaotic eyes. But now, Wanyi has already retreated from the appearance of the old man. His white hair has turned into green silk, and his wrinkles have almost disappeared. Even his chaotic eyes have become clear. The change is too obvious and rapid. Some people even rumors that the national master has practiced magic behind his back.
Wanyi turned a deaf ear to the story behind the people and soldiers, because he knew why he had become like this. He didn't need to explain it to anyone. Even in front of the emperor, he had never said a word.
When everything returned to quiet, Wan Yi said lightly, "I invite you to come here. I have something to ask for."
"Your face can't be hidden." Xiaohuan smiled and said, "If you had known this, why didn't you explain your identity earlier? I wouldn't do this hard and hurt your vitality."
"If it hadn't been for the emergency, I wouldn't have said it yet." Wanyi didn't pay attention to what Xiaohuan said, but paused and said, "I invited you to talk about Shuangwu and the prince."
"Do you want to tell me the reason, or do you want me to keep it a secret?" Xiaohuan naturally knew that Wanyi was for this matter, but he asked Wanyi quietly. Some words made the other party say it first and the effect of what he took the initiative to say were completely different.
"I want to ask you to keep it a secret." Wanyi looked at Xiaohuan and said seriously, "You can make conditions, any conditions are fine."
"Conditions?" Xiaohuan smiled and said, "I don't lack anything, and I don't need your help. How can I say anything!"
"How about exchanging my cultivation?" Wan Yi gritted his teeth and opened a seductive chip.
"I don't want to hurt you because of this, and I don't want to get an unhuman name. More importantly, I don't want to do this transaction. If there is nothing else, I will go back first. Although Xiaohuan knew that this matter was of great importance, the conditions made him feel that this matter was more complicated than he thought, so he would not agree easily.
"What do you want? Say it." Wanyi couldn't wait to bet on himself in order to keep this secret, but Xiaohuan, who was seriously injured, refused his cultivation without hesitation, which made Wanyi couldn't help but worry about the conditions that Xiaohuan was about to offer.
"I want you to answer my three questions."
"What do you want to know? What problem is more important than your injury?!" Wanyi frowned unconsciously.
"One, why did you leave Kingman? Second, why did you hide the matter of the prince and the double dance? Third, where does Lin Qian come from? Xiaohuan will look at Wanyi's expression every time he says something, and Wanyi's face is getting paler and paler because of his problems. When he finished speaking, Wan Yi's face was as pale as a piece of paper.
"I can tell you the first and third points, but I can't say the second point." Wan Yi's breathing was obviously unstable, and his voice trembled unconsciously.
"That's all. I won't force you." Xiaohuan did not compromise, but turned around and was about to leave. Wanyi hurriedly dodged in front of Xiaohuan and said, "Please keep the prince's matter confidential."
"This is my business." Xiaohuan paused and said, "What's more, you can't stop me."
"If I say it, you will get my handle. Instead, I'd better keep it a secret for myself." Wan Yi stood in front of Xiaohuan and said without any intention of getting out of the way, "You don't know the reason, that's why you asked me, but are you sure I won't lie?" Why don't you take something practical!"
Xiaohuan smiled evilly after hearing Wan Yi's words: "Lying? You dare not. You also know that although I can promise not to say it now, you can't let me forget, so once I find out that you lied, I will make this matter known to everyone.
"Why did you force me?"
"I'm just curious, and it's you who asked me to make a condition, so you should naturally accept my request." A trace of light flashed in Xiaohuan's eyes, waiting for Wanyi's answer.
In fact, he didn't have to know about the prince and Shuangwu, but he wanted to understand Wan Yi's idea through this matter and know why Wan Yi did this. He didn't expect Wan Yi to care so much about this matter, which made him feel very surprised.
Wan Yi's eyes flashed unconsciously, and he looked at Xiao Huan and said, "Okay. I can tell you. But please keep it a secret."
Xiao Huan smiled silently and said, "Then go in and talk about it, so that I can understand your story."
With that, Xiaohuan took the lead in entering the Taoist temple and sat on the chair, waiting for Wan Yi to come in with heavy steps. He sat on one side and said solemnly, "Jin Man and I were twins. You must have seen that we look exactly the same. As snakes, we twins are against God's will.
Xiaohuan looked at the contemplative late memory, but did not interrupt his words.
"We don't know when we have memories and have been wandering around. Although we complement each other and rely on twin forces to predict, we also hate each other. Until we figure out that your appearance will give the snakes a place to rest, he decided to stay, and I decided to leave. Wan Yi smiled bitterly and said, "This is the twin curse. We can know everything, but we can't separate each other."
"Twin curse... No wonder you can all predict it." Xiaohuan began to recall what had happened before when he heard this. At first, it was because Wan Yi deliberately hid his identity and was the enemy of him everywhere, which made him ignore the similarities between Wan Yi and Jin Man. If it hadn't been for breaking the boundary of late memory that day, I'm afraid I wouldn't have found this matter so far.
"I didn't want to treat myself as a snake when I first decided to leave." Wan Yi muttered, "If I can choose again, I would rather continue to hate each other than deal with these difficult things now."
"You want to live different lives separately, but you are inseparable at all. No matter what happens to any of you, the other can't be better, can't you?"
"We live and die together. If I die, he will also die. He died, and I can't live alone. Wan Yi paused and said, "We have always hoped that we can live independently and unfettered..."
"No wonder when I defeated the moat you laid that day, I felt the breath of Jinman..." Xiaohuan thought about leaving the capital that day and said, "I hurt your vitality. Jinman felt the same way, so she was noticed by me..."
"Yes." Wan Yi paused and said, "Therefore, we all try our best to reduce our injuries, just to prevent the other party from being implicated. Therefore, Your Highness the Snake King, I hope you will take more care of it in the future.
Wanyi's last words made Xiaohuan pause slightly and smiled, "Does he also know that you are in the capital?"
"He doesn't know." Wan Yi smiled bitterly and said, "Although we can know a lot of things, we can't feel each other's position or know our fate. Our strength is the same. Whether he cultivates or I practice, our strength grows together and we can't spy on each other. And our fate is entangled with different people, so... our fate is full of variables, and... we don't know about Lin Qian's fate.
