Yes, the map fragments!
Lu Li’s words evoked another part of Gu Sheng’s memory in the book.
He clenched his fists lightly, remembering that the most important thing in this book besides the protagonist is the “map fragments” mentioned by Lu Li.
According to the setting in the book, whoever gets the map gets the world, and one of these maps is indeed in the Ye Mansion.
Gu Sheng stepped away from the two and wanted to fetch water. When he passed by Jiang Yun, he noticed his expression.
Jiang Yun lowered his eyes slightly, and his eyes were still on Lu Li, which looked a little complicated.
Gu Sheng took a deep breath, and was a little confused about what he felt about this scene.
After all, to some extent, he also “liked” Jiang Yun.
But for now, Jiang Yun only has Lu Li in his heart.
Why did the other party say that before? Could it be that he wanted to keep him by his side first and deal with him slowly in the future?
Gu Sheng couldn’t help but shudder.
Stop thinking.
The focus now should be how to help Jiang Yun get the map fragments of the Ye Mansion.
Gu Sheng himself is not very strong in fighting, and only has some self-protection ability. If he can help Jiang Yun by predicting the plot from now on, he may be able to hide behind him when he encounters danger in the future.
Gu Sheng calmed down and concentrated on recalling the plot.
In the book, Jiang Yun knew about this early on, so he took the initiative to contact when Ye Mansion was looking for a ghost catcher at that time, and took him and Lu Li with him to cover up.
After all, a person acting alone will always inadvertently become the focus of everyone.
As one of the people who “coveted” the map fragments this time, Jiang Yun did not want to be the focus.
In addition to the map fragments, the most critical part of this trip to Ye Mansion was the illusion.
Ha.
Thinking of this, Gu Sheng’s brain got hot and he buried his head in the basin.
The person he liked was about to get married with someone else in the illusion.
…
”Splash!”
Gu Sheng’s neck was held by someone after his head was immersed in the water for only one second, and the other party lifted him up without resistance.
Jiang Yun’s cold voice came from above, and it was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry: “Gu Sheng, don’t you want to live?”
Gu Sheng woke up instantly, looked up and looked at Jiang Yun:
”Boss, I…”
How should he explain that he was distracted for a while because he thought of something?
What could make people distracted so much.
Gu Sheng lowered his eyes: “Sorry, boss, it was an accident just now.”
What an accident, did he really think he didn’t know what Gu Sheng was thinking?
Jiang Yun sneered in his heart, and let go of his hand calmly, stroking the mark he had left on Gu Sheng’s neck just now.
”Remember to pay more attention next time.”
The cold and pleasant voice made Gu Sheng nod frequently, thinking that Jiang Yun at this time was really beautiful and kind.
Little did he know that what the other party really thought was: I got married with someone else in a fantasy, what does it have to do with you.
Idiot.
——The two of them washed up casually and went out. Lu Li walked in front to lead the way, Jiang Yun walked in the middle, and Gu Sheng followed behind and walked very slowly, and from time to time he had to pull up his trouser legs that reached the ground.
There was no way. Jiang Yun’s clothes were too big for him, and it was very inconvenient to walk.
Gu Sheng looked up and saw the carriage that Ye Mansion had ordered to pick up the three of them not far away.
In order to save time, Gu Sheng rolled up his sleeves, pulled up his trousers with his hands hanging at his sides, walked past Jiang Yun and the other man, walked quickly to the side of the carriage, opened the curtain, and bowed slightly in the direction of Jiang Yun:
”Boss, please get in the carriage!”
Jiang Yun walked slowly to the front of the carriage, lowered his eyes to look at Gu Sheng for a second, bowed to get in the carriage, and nodded to the driver:
”Thank you.”
Gu Sheng tilted his head.
What about him? Don’t you want to praise him?
Gu Sheng lifted the curtain a little higher, looked into the carriage, and just met Jiang Yun’s eyes who was leaning over.
Gu Sheng blinked, waiting for praise.
Jiang Yun looked at him silently, grasped Gu Sheng’s forearm with his warm hands, and pulled him into the carriage.
Lu Li, who was following behind and was about to thank the other party for lifting the curtain, said: …He hasn’t entered the carriage yet, why is Jiang Yun so anxious to pull Gu Sheng in?
Lu Li looked at the curtain and lowered his eyes to think for a moment, thinking of the scene in the house just now.
Could it be that Jiang Yun wanted to… pull him into the carriage first to “train” him?
This possibility made Lu Li look up instantly, and he got into the carriage like the wind.
——
Jiang Yun’s action caught Gu Sheng off guard, and he fell on him. In less than a second, he was lifted up by Jiang Yun holding his collar and forced to sit beside him.
”Boss… Boss?”
Gu Sheng retreated silently, watching Jiang Yun leaning over without blinking.
Jiang Yun lowered his eyes, and his warm palm grasped Gu Sheng’s wrist again, and his other hand stretched out to his neck, asking:
”Why didn’t you come in with me just now?”
Jiang Yun’s action made Gu Sheng subconsciously look up, and the hand on his neck slid, and the originally wide collar of his robe was pulled wider.
Before Gu Sheng could reply, the other party’s finger “inadvertently” brushed across Gu Sheng’s collarbone.
Gu Sheng shuddered, and then realized it belatedly.
The right collarbone was where his birthmark was.
Jiang Yun was suspicious of him.
”I…”
Gu Sheng hesitated, not knowing how to explain. Coincidentally, the curtain of the carriage was opened again at this time.
”Stop!”
Lu Li got into the carriage and quickly rushed between the two of them, shouting:
”Jiang Yun, don’t be impulsive!”
”Impulsive?” Jiang Yun turned his head and looked at Lu Li calmly, then loosened his hand holding Gu Sheng and helped him fix his open collar.
”The weather has turned cooler recently, and my clothes are a little too big for you.”
Jiang Yun ignored Lu Li, covered Gu Sheng’s birthmark with his collar again, and continued:
”After we arrive at the Ye Mansion and settle down, we will go to the street to buy you a set of suitable clothes to wear.”
Lu Li was stunned by the scene in front of him: “Aren’t you… fighting?”
Perhaps because of his identity as a “rival in love” and his personality, when he heard what Lu Li said, Gu Sheng immediately said:
”Brother Lu, you are really whimsical.”
Brother Lu responded with silence and sat back in his original place without saying a word.
——
The carriage was moving very fast, and within a quarter of an hour, the three people were brought to the front door of the Ye Mansion.
In Fengcheng, a place without jurisdiction, the reputation of the Ye family has long been spread throughout the streets and alleys due to the various deeds of the Ye family members. In recent days, the fact that the Ye Mansion recruited ghost catchers has also become known to everyone.
Therefore, when the carriage stopped in front of the Ye Mansion, everyone rushed to see the “dignified appearance” of the ghost catchers, but found that the three guys who seemed to have not even grown all their hair came down from the carriage.
The faces of the onlookers were all in disbelief.
The head of the Ye family, who had received the news and rushed out of the mansion to welcome the “distinguished guests”, was also stunned for a moment.
In front of everyone, the head of the Ye family could not directly drive away the three “troublemakers”, so he had to put away the expression on his face and walked in front of the three people.
”You three have been riding for a long time. You must be tired from the journey. Go back to your room and rest for a while.”
”Huh?”
When Lu Li heard this, he first looked at Jiang Yun beside him. When he saw that he had no intention of refuting, he became anxious and explained:
”Master Ye, we came here this time to…”
”I naturally know your intentions. We can talk about this later. “
Master Ye interrupted Lu Li impatiently and waved his hand to call the Ye family servants.
”Come on, take the three friends to the guest room and have a good rest.”
”Master.”
The servant came in response, gestured to the three of them, and walked towards the mansion.
”Three guests, please follow me.”
Jiang Yun and Gu Sheng followed without thinking. Lu Li, who originally planned to stand stalemate with Master Ye for a while, followed unwillingly after thinking for two seconds.
On the way, the servant said as he walked: “The master of the house has long known that all the distinguished guests will arrive today, so he specially cleaned up a few guest rooms to entertain the distinguished guests.”
”You are the last to arrive today, and there are three guest rooms left in the house, one for each person.”
The servant said this, paused for a moment and asked: “Do you have any other requirements for the rooms?”
”Yes.”
Jiang Yun pointed at Gu Sheng as the servant looked over: “Two rooms will be fine, I will stay in one with him, thank you.”
The servant’s eyes moved between the two for a few seconds, and nodded in understanding.
”Okay, the rooms of the three of you are adjacent to each other, and it is very easy to temporarily change and free up one.”
”Please follow me.”
The servant walked in front, his steps were neither hurried nor slow, and Gu Sheng followed Jiang Yun, counting down silently in his heart.
Twenty-two, twenty-one, twenty…
”The guest room is in front.”
The servant stopped twenty meters away from the guest room and bowed to the three people:
”The master has ordered that no one except guests is allowed to approach the guest room.”
”If the guests need anything, you can ring this bell to call me.”
The other party handed a bell to Jiang Yun and nodded: “Please, three of you.”
”No one except guests is allowed to approach the guest room? The rules of the Ye Mansion are really strange.” Lu Li did not move forward at all. He turned his head to look at the servant who was about to leave and grabbed his arm:
”Could it be that there is something strange in the guest room?”
Gu Sheng in front shook his head silently.
There was no strange thing, but there was a ghost thing.
It was also the “thing” they had to face this time to get the map fragments.
Gu Sheng thought, and suddenly turned his head to look at Jiang Yun beside him.
Speaking of which, Jiang Yun should have stood beside Lu Li at this time and questioned the servant with him. Why did he walk over to him without hesitation?
Gu Sheng stood there and shook his head.
No, Lu Li is the protagonist of “Yun Yun’s Voice”, and Jiang Yun is the biggest villain in the book. The plot should not develop like this.
Could it be that because of his close relationship with the two of them, some actions will inadvertently affect their original behavior.
Butterfly effect?
Although this is the case, Gu Sheng does not intend to act according to the established trajectory in the original book.
Since he has become “Gu Sheng”, everything that follows is of course to follow his own ideas.
Helping Jiang Yun successfully get the map fragments and being able to survive is what Gu Sheng thinks.
Gu Sheng retracted his gaze and happened to miss Jiang Yun’s gaze.
Behind him, the conversation continued.
”I’m just a servant…”
The servant’s expression did not change, and he took a half step back without leaving a trace, breaking away from Lu Li’s hand.
”Everything is subject to the orders of the master, please don’t embarrass me, guest.”
”Heh.” Lu Li laughed sarcastically, but he didn’t continue to ask.
After all, this is the territory of the Ye family. If he really pushes the other party too hard, it will not be a good thing for him.
Lu Li no longer cared about the attendant. He turned around and found that Jiang Yun and the other person had already walked away, so he hurried to catch up.
”Jiang Yun!”
He quickly stepped forward and put his hand on Jiang Yun’s shoulder to stop him, and cast a look at Gu Sheng:
”Don’t you think what the attendant said is very strange?”
”No one except guests is allowed to approach the guest room, which means there must be a ghost here!”
”Yeah, Brother Lu is right.”
Gu Sheng nodded perfunctorily, and Lu Li automatically ignored the other party’s reaction and patted Jiang Yun’s shoulder.
”Jiang Yun, what do you think about this?”
Jiang Yun was silent for a long time, and he resisted the disgust to not wave the other party’s hand off his shoulder, and nodded in agreement.
”Yeah, you are right.”
Lu Li: …
Ha, perfunctory.
He wanted to say something else, but he saw the two people in front of him bypassing him on the left and right, and walked straight towards the guest room.
Lu Li couldn’t believe it.
These two people just left him and walked past without hesitation?
He looked at the backs of Jiang Yun and Gu Sheng walking away and became entangled, but finally gritted his teeth and followed.
When they were only a few steps away from the guest room, Lu Li suddenly realized
that the two people who were walking in front of him had disappeared.
——
”Dang——”
”Pah——”
”The ninth day of the ninth month——”
When Gu Sheng woke up from the table, the sound of bells, drums, and voices rang in his ears.
He listened carefully and made out that the sound came from the window.
”The auspicious time has arrived——”
It’s time to get married.
The familiar words made Gu Sheng sure that he had entered a fantasy, but——
He raised his eyes and looked at himself in the dressing mirror.
Wearing wedding clothes and a red veil beside the table, his identity was self-evident.
He became the “bride” in this fantasy.
But it was not right.
Why was the “bride” him?
