Deputy head

Chapter 52 I Hate Lu

[-]

I stood in front of the door of the Celestial Master's room, feeling uneasy.

The inn is so quiet.

I walked all the way, carefully, always on guard against the doors of each room, for fear that someone might be ambushing, but until the moment I stood in front of the door, nothing appeared. I even stomped on the floor on purpose just now, but still no one showed up. .

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon. At this time, I looked at the flickering candlelight in the room of the celestial master and hesitated.

There is no doubt that once the door is pushed open, there must be someone waiting for me in the room.

Does the Celestial Master want me to enter this room...

Because I was too nervous, I swallowed meaninglessly, and my palm was slightly moist.

Should I open the door and go in?

If I don't go in, I will never know what the celestial master is planning, but if I go in rashly, I'm afraid I will fall into the celestial master's way--I can't have any more accidents until I eliminate all potential threats against Wang Xi.

"come in."

Suddenly there was a voice in the room, I was startled, and subconsciously took half a step back. After realizing that it was the voice of the Celestial Master, I stabilized my steps.

"You won't die in this room, don't worry."

I didn't respond to him, but stared at the door of the room.

"Hey..." He sighed a long time, "Don't you want to know who I am? If you come in, I'll tell you everything."

Hearing what he said, I stopped hesitating. I just wanted to find out about him, so there was no reason to hesitate anymore, so I kicked the door open.

The furnishings in the room were as usual, without any abnormalities.

The celestial master sitting in the armchair is holding a teacup and sipping. There is only one white candle lit in the room. The candlelight shines on the celestial master's cheek. The window is not opened, and he is wearing thick clothes. Dewang, this man's face was still a little red, and his expression was very peaceful.

"No one is left, are you afraid that I will kill you?" I said.

"Of course I'm not afraid." He put down the porcelain cup in his hand, smiling, "Wang Yi, I know you better than yourself, you won't do anything to me now."

"Knowing me so well, is it possible that you like me?" These words were full of irony, and I wanted to find out about him.

But he was not moved, instead his smile deepened: "Yes." After that, he raised his eyes to look at me, his eyes... very sticky.

This kind of gaze is definitely not an ordinary liking, and I know how unlikable I am, so I frowned and looked at him for a while.

Tianshi didn't intend to confront me, his eyes fell, he said first: "You are always smart, you have already guessed the relationship between me and Huang Tianshi."

That's right, he should indeed be Huang Xiazi's apprentice, but why can't he know how to tell a fortune teller.I looked at him silently, waiting for his next words.

"Then do you know when I began to observe you?"

If he used to pay homage to the national teacher, he should have known about my existence a long time ago. I am afraid that he is clear about things that even Wang Xi doesn't know. Thinking of this, I didn't answer. How to respond, just continue to say: "The first time I saw you was when the Celestial Master brought me into the palace for the first time."

I'm pretty sure I've never been face to face with him, never met him.

"At that time, I was just picked up by Tianshi from the side of the road. The other disciples of Tianshi were from famous families, and they always bullied me, so Tianshi took me by his side all day long, but at that time I was afraid of being bullied. So I always hide around the celestial master, I just saw you hiding behind the palace pillar."

"Seeing you eating, I was thinking at that time, so there are such pitiful children of princes and nobles in this world. No matter how poor I am, I still have three meals a day, but you can only find food in the swill... you You know? Seeing your pitiful appearance is really relieved."

"I will visit you whenever I have a chance. To be honest, every time I see you, I feel very happy. I am not the worst person. It's great!" He was still smiling, relaxed and happy, It's like talking about a little happy thing, "But after a long time, this joy has gradually diminished. I think, although you are the emperor's child, you are actually no different from me. We are exactly the same, both The child that my parents don't want, if the heavenly master didn't pick me up, I might be even more miserable than you... I suddenly feel that your misfortune has become very unsightly."

"Later, I suddenly couldn't see you. Huang Tianshi was busy, and the emperor also changed his attitude towards you. I wanted to see you, but you only cared about playing with my sister. I was really surprised. You forgot Have you changed your previous situation?"

What he said should be the time when my father appeared.

"In the past, she was so different from you. She was obviously the emperor's child. Why did she live better than you? Why did you like her? I wanted to ask you then, why did you do this? Pretend Show it to the emperor?"

I looked at the person in front of me with disgust and said, "She is my sister."

"Sister...what is sister?" He didn't care about my gaze at all, he just talked to himself, and snorted rather disgustingly, "Well, I like you so much, so whatever you say is what you say. "

This disgusted me, and I couldn't help frowning.

"At that time, I was really too young, small and stupid. I always thought that Master Huang would support me and protect me. Really, I really liked him at that time, and I just thought about how to become his chief disciple..."

Speaking of this, his eyes suddenly burst into tears, and he described it as terrifying, as if he was about to turn into a demon in the next moment.

"But he ran away suddenly! He not only doesn't want those noble disciples, he doesn't even want me! Why? Why! If that's the case, don't pick me back in the first place! Shameless old thing!"

Faced with such an intense emotional display from him, I didn't know how to react, I just watched him go crazy with a cold face.

"Fortunately, I'm not a nobleman, so I escaped. I went all the way to find Master Huang. I wanted to ask him why he abandoned me. It took me five years to find the Bronze Sect. I stopped him at the foot of the mountain and asked him , why didn't he take me with him when he adopted me? Guess what he said?"

"...He adopted you just on a whim." I recalled how his face changed drastically when he heard the word "on a whim" when he suddenly came to inquire about my relationship with Wang Xi.

With a sullen expression on his face, he stood up anxiously, and paced back and forth in the room: "Yes! It's really you, you really know it. That's right! That's why, he said he just picked me up on a whim, Hateful! Really hateful! But there is another thing that is even more hateful," he stopped in his tracks and leaned in front of me, "Guess again, what is the more hateful thing?"

I can probably think of it, but I can't say it.

"Well, it's normal if you don't want to say it. It's really strange that he tried his best to protect you after abandoning me. What do you think he's trying to do? I'm his disciple."

He suddenly became happy again, and smiled terribly: "But it's okay, I figured it out a long time ago, it's actually nothing, anyway, the compass is in my hands, and I'm also the god here now, it doesn't matter if he admits it or not, And the person he protects is you."

"I was still confused at that time, and felt that you were different from me again. You were protected by everyone, you didn't have to worry about food and clothing, and you foolishly chased after Wang Xi. I could only secretly go up the mountain to take a look every few days. , the more you look at it, the more you hate it. You should be like me, eating and drinking, working, and begging. By the way, do you know that I was also favored by rich people? When you wrote lanterns for Wang Xi , I was still making noodles. At that time, life was good and bad, and I thought about you every day, thinking about what you did today, and whether you were being stupid to Wang Xi again..."

"Later, something happened to the Bronze Sect. You fled, and I followed you from a distance. I lost several times. But I was lucky. I saw Huang Tianshi die with my own eyes. At that moment, I really unloaded a thousand catties. He's finally dead, and he can't deny me anymore, I was so happy that I wanted to jump up, and then I saw you."

"Lu Qian, your expression at that time was so to my liking - I suddenly felt that the sufferings I have suffered these years are the same as yours. We are all the same, you and I are exactly the same. You are me Ah, why should I feel pain because of your happiness? Obviously your happiness is my happiness!" He suddenly reached out and wrapped my wrist tightly, "Lu Qian, Lu Qian, I really like you, From then on, I knew that we are two in one, I will live with you in the future, and I am also Lu Qian, what Lu Qian wants is what I want."

He took out the small compass in his arms, and fondled it lovingly: "You are recognized as a great disciple by Huang Tianshi, then I will take the compass, and you are also a great disciple."

"After you escaped, you returned to the Bronze Sect and became the deputy head of the Bronze Sect, good! Great, in fact, being the head is quite enough, we have two bodies! But if Lu Qian doesn't care about this, Then I don't care about it. It's just that I don't understand why we want to get in touch with Rong Cheng. I really didn't guess what we were going to do at first... In order to know our purpose, I went to Huayumen on purpose. Later, I finally discovered the truth, as expected of Lu Qian, who thought of such an idea, even if he is in a desperate situation, he can still survive."

"My ability to hide is very good. When Rong Chengxun wanted to show his feet several times, I helped him. After all, this is what Lu Qian hopes. Since I hope so, I must help him. "He looked at me like offering a treasure, as if he was waiting for me to praise him, "When Lu Qian fell off the cliff, have you ever wondered why Wuxi could arrive in time? I lured Wangxi here !"

But at this moment, I just feel chills in my heart, he is completely crazy, and he is still a sober lunatic.I tried to pull my hand back, but he held it tightly, and my hand was already turning blue.

"We are so smart, we just killed Hua Qizheng without leaving any trace or revealing our identity. Lu Qian is really amazing, it's great to be Lu Qian!"

His face suddenly magnified in front of me, and his expression was extremely distorted: "But what did Lu Qian do in the secret room? After he came out, the Bronze Sect was no longer wanted, and neither was Wang Xi, so he just ran around with his sister in his arms, and first went to Huanghuagu I hid, and then came to Qingzhu Town again, and actually...acted as a waiter! Unforgivable! How could Lu Qian do such a thing?!"

"This is not Lu Qian! How could I be such Lu Qian?"

He shook off my hand and hugged his neck in pain: "You are not Lu Qian...you are a fake! You are the same as Hua Qizheng, a person who should have died a long time ago. I like Lu Qian the most. Why? Can you let Lu Qian be so oblivious to everyone? I should punish you like the real Lu Qian, and you, a fake, should be wiped out!"

"Ah, I also called Wang Xi and the elder. This is the last confirmation. If I am wrong, if you are really Lu Qian, then you should change back to your original appearance, and you will still be a deputy. Lu Qian, who is in charge, I have also become the god of Qingzhu Town, just like Huang Tianshi back then, ruling everything here, Qingzhu Town is absolutely safe, and it is very easy for us to live in this safe area good……"

"But what do you want to investigate? What does Lu Qian have to do with those people's death?" His eyes became dark, "You are too greedy, with Wang Xi by your side, you don't have to be a mistress anymore, and your life is still stable. It’s already like this, isn’t it enough?”

"Sure enough, you are not Lu Qian. Since you walked out of the secret room, you have been a fake."

Hearing this, I completely understood.

Unfortunately, although he is a lunatic, I still understand the weird way of thinking of this lunatic: he envies me so much that it reaches a pathological level, and even regards me as himself.But my actions violated his expectations, so for him, I was no longer a part of him, he was furious, and he did everything to get Lu Qian back in his eyes.

He is always loyal to the "Lu Qian" in his mind. If he is retaliating against me in "Lu Qian's way", then he will imitate the past "Lu Qian" and carry out the last activity—— In the secret room, defeat "Hua Qizheng" in front of Wang Xi.

No wonder he threatened Wang Xi.

No wonder there was no outsider in this room.

No wonder the room was stuffy and hot, but he still didn't open the window.

[-]

That being the case, I am not worried that he will reveal my identity.

Whether it's stealing the compass, or being unable to bear me being the waiter in the shop, it clearly shows one thing-the Celestial Master attaches great importance to identity.His past experience made him fear the loss of his identity from the bottom of his heart. He wanted to be the direct disciple of the Heavenly Master, and also wanted to become Lu Qian.If I stay in the Bronze School and play the most suitable Lu Qian in the heart of Tianshi, maybe he will really quietly hide by my side for the rest of my life, spying on my life, and living in the fantasy called "Lu Qian" for the rest of my life .But now that the dream was broken, he began to frantically correct the reality, trying to reorganize the fantasy.

After all, he regards himself as Lu Qian, and this identity as Lu Qian is his only hope, so he will not tolerate another person doing any harm to "Lu Qian".

Tianshi is a sober lunatic. He clearly cannot see the reality clearly, but he is extremely rational. He will not fail to imagine what will happen to Lu Qian after his identity is exposed.If I die as Lu Qian, the world will think that Lu Qian is dead, and his dreams can no longer be consistent, which means that he can no longer be Lu Qian, so he will never reveal my identity. "Lu Qian" is alive.

But there is at least one more thing that makes me feel relieved. It can be confirmed that for the Celestial Master, Wang Xi is just a prop he uses. If everything is resolved in this closed room, then Wang Xi will not be involved Come in.Heavenly Master has no intention of revealing my identity, and the matter will not affect the Bronze Sect. It will not hinder Lao Zhang and Aunt Wei. Sisi is safe in the medical center, and only I am his target.

Tianshi just wants me to die, Lu Qian wants to stay.Speaking of which, "Lu Qian" is really precious, even if he keeps hiding, he will still be found out.

But this is the last time, really the last time.

The celestial master stood in front of me, his eyes glowing with fanaticism: "Perhaps why the previous death happened, you understand it? That's right, that's right, it was just to wait for today, ah, there was something wrong in the plan Yes, Wang Xi should also be here to hear about your crimes, and then be completely disappointed in you, but forget it, it doesn't matter if he doesn't come, as long as the unrestrained murderer will be arrested here in the end."

"Although there is no way to continue the two-in-one, but I will become a complete Lu Qian, live well, and you will die as Wang Yi."

He suddenly raised his hand, I remembered the experience of being unconscious, so I hurriedly backed away, only to find that the door behind me was closed behind me, seeing the celestial master walking over without haste, I kicked the door frame and rushed out of the room Running to the other side, taking the stairs is too risky, why not just jump out of the window, I turned to the room, and when I opened the door, I found that something was wrong, the window was closed tightly, and no light from the outside could come in. Completely blocked.

The celestial master behind me came slowly, with a smile in his voice.

"You don't think the Chamber of Secrets is just the room I live in?"

His footsteps were getting closer.

"The entire inn is a secret room I specially built for you."

The author has something to say: The exam was so difficult... Before the exam, I felt so worried that my DNA was about to untwist...
