[R18] The Patriarch of the Demonic Way (newly revised version) – Chapter 15 of “The Patriarch of the Demonic Way (Newly Revised Edition)” [English]
byChapter 15 Elegant Fourth 5
Wei Wuxian is a person who is very good at finding fun for himself, especially good at enjoying hardships.Since there is nothing else to play with, we have to play Lan Wangji.He said: “Brother Wangji.”
Lan Wangji remained unmoved.
Wei Wuxian said, “Wangji.”
If you haven’t heard it.
Wei Wuxian: “Lan Wangji.”
Wei Wuxian: “Lan Zhan!”
Lan Wangji finally stopped writing and looked up at he with cold eyes.Wei Wuxian stepped back and raised his hands in defense: “Don’t look at me like that. I called you by your name because you didn’t agree to Wangji’s call. If you’re unhappy, you can call me back by my name.”
Lan Wangji said, “Put your legs down.”
Wei Wuxian was sitting in an extremely awkward posture, with his body slanted and his legs propped up.Seeing that Lan Wangji finally got Lan Wangji to speak, he felt a burst of joy as the clouds cleared and the moon shone brightly.He put his legs down according to his words, but his upper body moved closer unknowingly. His arms pressed on the desk, still sitting in an inappropriate posture.he said seriously: “Lan Zhan, let me ask you a question. Do you really hate me?”
Lan Wangji lowered his eyes, his eyelashes casting a faint shadow on his jade cheeks.Wei Wuxian hurriedly said, “Stop. I just said a few words and ignored others. I want to admit my mistake and apologize to you. Look at me.”
After a pause, heSaid: “Don’t look at me? That’s okay, then I said it myself. It was my fault that night. I was wrong. I shouldn’t have climbed over the wall, I shouldn’t have drank, and I shouldn’t have fought with you. But I swear! I didn’t mean to provoke you. I really didn’t read your family rules.” JiangThe family rules are all spoken and not written down at all.”Otherwise, I definitely wouldn’t have finished drinking the jar in front of you. I took it to my room and drank it secretly. I drank it every day and shared it with everyone.”
Wei Wuxian added, “And let’s be reasonable. Who was the one who hit me first? It was you. If you hadn’t struck first, we could still have talked and made it clear. But when someone hits me, I have to fight back. It’s not all my fault. Lan Zhan, are you listening? Look at me. Mr. Lan?” He snapped his fingers, “Second brother Lan, give me a favor and look at me.”
Lan Wangji said without raising his eyes, “Copy it one more time.”
Wei Wuxian’s body suddenly tilted: “Don’t be like this. I was wrong.”
Lan Wangji exposed him mercilessly: “You have no regrets at all.”
Wei Wuxian said without dignity: “I’m sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry. I can say it as many times as you want. You can kneel down and say it.”
Lan Wangji put down his pen. Wei Wuxian thought that he finally couldn’t bear it anymore and wanted to beat himself up. He was about to smile, but suddenly he found that his upper and lower lips seemed to be stuck together and he couldn’t smile anymore.
He’s face changed drastically, and he said with all his strength, “Huh? Uh-huh!”
Lan Wangji closed his eyes, let out a breath, opened his eyes, looked calm again, and started writing again, as if nothing happened.Wei Wuxian had long heard about the abominations of the Lan family’s silence technique, but he didn’t believe in it.But after a while, the corners of his mouth turned red and he couldn’t open his mouth no matter what.So he copied a piece of paper, his pen flew away, and he threw the paper over.Lan Wangji took one look at it and said, “It’s boring.” He crumpled it into a ball and threw it away.
Wei Wuxian was so angry that he rolled on the mat, got up and wrote another picture, took the picture in front of Lan Wangji, and was crumpled into a ball again and thrown away.
This gag was not released until he finished copying it.When I came to the library the next day, all the paper balls that were thrown all over the floor the day before were taken away.
Wei Wuxian had always healed his scar and forgot about the pain. He had just suffered the loss of being banned from speaking the day before, and his mouth was itching unbearably after sitting there for two minutes.Desperately, he just opened his mouth to say a few words, but was silenced again.Unable to speak, he scribbled on the paper, stuffed it over to Lan Wangji, and then crumpled it into a ball and threw it to the ground.It was still the same on the third day.
After being silenced for so many times, until the last day when he faced the wall and thought about his past, Wei Wuxian seemed a little strange to Lan Wangji.
When he came to Suzhou, he threw his sword around every day and never saw him carry it seriously. But today he brought it and pressed it against the desk with a slap.It was a departure from his usual habit of harassing Lan Wangji in every possible way. He didn’t say a word, but just sat down and started writing. He was almost eerily obedient.
Lan Wangji had no reason to cast a silence spell on him, but instead looked at him twice, as if he didn’t believe that he was suddenly honest.Sure enough, not long after sitting down, Wei Wuxian returned to his old illness and sent a piece of paper over for him to read.
Lan Wangji originally thought it was just some random boring words, but by mistake, he glanced at it and found a portrait.Sitting upright, leaning against the window and reading quietly, his facial features and expressions are lifelike, and he is himself.
Seeing that he didn’t look away immediately, Wei Wuxian raised the corners of his mouth, raised his eyebrows at him, and blinked.No words are needed, the meaning is obvious: does it look like?OK?
Lan Wangji said slowly: “If you have this free time, don’t copy books, but instead doodle. I don’t think you will ever be able to get out of the ban.”
Wei Wuxian blew on the wet ink marks and said nonchalantly, “I’ve already finished copying, and I won’t come tomorrow!”
Lan Wangji’s slender fingers seemed to be stuck on the yellowish scroll for a moment, and then he turned to the next page, but there was no forbidden word.Wei Wuxian saw that he couldn’t play anymore, so he threw the painting away and said, “I’ll give it to you.”
The painting was thrown on the mat, and Lan Wangji had no intention of taking it.These days, the papers Wei Wuxian used to scold him, please him, admit mistakes to him, beg him for mercy, and doodle all were treated like this. He was used to it and didn’t care. He suddenly said, “I forgot, I have to add something to you.”
After saying that, he picked up the paper, picked up the pen, added two strokes in three strokes, looked at the painting, then looked at the real person, and fell to the ground laughing.Lan Wangji put down the scroll and glanced at it. It turned out that he had added a flower to his temples.
The corners of his mouth seemed to twitch.Wei Wuxian got up and said, “‘Boring’, right? I knew you meant boring. Can you change the word? Or add two more words?”
Lan Wangji said coldly: “It’s extremely boring.”
Wei Wuxian clapped his hands: “I really did add two words. Thank you!”
Lan Wangji looked away, picked up the book he had just put on the table, and opened it again.After just one glance, he threw it out as if he was being licked by tongues of fire.
Originally he was reading a Buddhist scripture, but when he opened it and scanned it, all he saw were naked and intertwined figures, which was unsightly.The volume he originally read had been turned into a book cover with erotic pictures disguised as Buddhist scriptures.
You don’t have to think hard to figure out who did it. It must have been someone who took advantage of him to look at the painting and divert his attention.What’s more, Wei Wuxian had no intention of hiding it and was still banging the table and laughing wildly: “Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!”
The book was thrown to the ground. Lan Wangji immediately retreated to the corner of the library like a snake and a scorpion, shouting angrily: “Wei Ying——!”
Wei Wuxian laughed so much that he almost rolled under the desk, and finally raised his hand: “Yes! I’m here!”
Lan Wangji quickly pulled out the Bichen Sword.Ever since they met, Wei Wuxian had never seen him look so rude. He quickly grabbed his sword, unsheathed the blade three-quarters of the way, and reminded him: “Deportment! Second Young Master Lan! Pay attention to your manners! I also brought a sword today. Do you still need it in your library if we fight?” He had expected that Lan Wangji would be so angry that he carried the sword to defend himself to avoid being accidentally stabbed to death by Lan Wangji in anger.Lan Wangji aimed his sword at he, his pale eyes almost bursting with fire: “Who are you!”
Wei Wuxian said, “Who else can I be? A man!”
Lan Wangji scolded: “Shameless!”
Wei WuXian said, “Should you be embarrassed about this? Don’t tell me you’ve never seen anything like this. I don’t believe it.”
Fortunately, Lan Wangji didn’t know how to curse. After holding it in for a long time, he raised his sword and pointed it at he, with a frosty look on his face: “Get out. We fought before.”
Wei Wuxian shook his head repeatedly and pretended to be obedient: “No fight, no fight. Don’t you know, Mr. Lan? Private fights are prohibited in Yunshen.” He was going to pick up the book that was thrown out, but Lan Wangji grabbed it in one step and grabbed it in his hand.Wei Wuxian’s mind suddenly changed, and he guessed that he was going to use this evidence to report him, and said deliberately: “What are you robbing? I thought you stopped reading it. Want to see it again? In fact, you don’t need to snatch it if you want to see it. I lent it to you specially. After seeing my erotic pictures, you are my friend. We can continue to communicate, and there is more…”
Lan Wangji’s entire face turned pale, and he said word by word: “I, don’t, look.”
Wei Wuxian continued to distort right and wrong: “If you don’t want to read it, then why are you snatching it? To keep it for yourself? That’s not okay. I borrowed it from someone else. You have to return it after reading it… Hey, hey, don’t come here. I’m so nervous if you come too close. I have something to say. You don’t want to hand it over, right? Who do you want to hand it over to? Give it to the old man… Give it to your uncle? Second Young Master Lan, can this kind of thing be given to the elders of the clan? heI will definitely suspect that you have seen it first. You are so thin-skinned, wouldn’t you be ashamed to death…”
Lan Wangji’s spiritual power poured into his right hand, and the book broke into thousands of pieces, flying and falling from the sky.Wei Wuxian saw that he had successfully provoked himAfter destroying the corpse and removing all traces, he felt relieved and pretended to regret: “What a waste of natural resources!” He picked up a piece of shredded paper that fell on his hair and showed it to Lan Wangji, who turned pale with anger: “Lan Zhan, you are good at everything, but you like throwing things. Tell me, how many paper balls have you thrown on the ground these days? You are not satisfied with throwing paper balls today. You are playing with tearing paper. You tear it up yourself. I don’t care.” Of course, heNever cared about it either.
Lan Wangji endured it again and again, and finally couldn’t bear it anymore and shouted angrily: “Get out!”
Wei Wuxian said, “Well, you Lan Zhan, they say you are a noble gentleman and the pearl of the world. You are the most knowledgeable about etiquette and etiquette, but it turns out you are nothing more than that. Don’t you know that noise is forbidden in Yunshen? And you actually told me to ‘get out’. Is this the first time you have used such a word to someone…” Lan Wangji drew his sword and stabbed at him.Wei Wuxian hurriedly jumped onto the window sill: “Just get out. I know how to get out. No need to send me away!”
He jumped off the library, laughed loudly like a madman, ran rampant, and jumped into the woods. There was already a group of people waiting for him inside.Nie Huaisang said, “How is it? Did he see it? What’s his expression?”
Wei Wuxian said, “What expression? Hey! He roared so loud just now, didn’t you hear it?”
Nie Huaisang looked in reverence: “I heard, he told you to get out! Brother Wei, this is the first time I heard Lan Wangji tell someone to ‘get out’! How did you do it?”
Wei Wuxian’s face was full of pride: “Congratulations, I helped him break this ban today. You see, the cultivation and family education that Second Young Master Lan is so praised by others are all vulnerable to me.”
Jiang Cheng scolded with a dark face: “You are so proud! What is there to be proud of! Is it honorable to be told to get lost? It’s such an embarrassment to our family!”
Wei WuXian said, “I wanted to admit my mistake to him, but he ignored me. He banned me for so many days, so what happened to me teasing him? I kindly gave him a book to read. What a pity, brother Huaisang, your precious erotic book. I haven’t finished it yet, it’s so exciting! Lan Zhan really doesn’t understand the style. He is not happy to show it to him, so his face is blind.”
Nie Huaisang said, “It’s not a pity! You can have as many as you want.”
Jiang Cheng sneered: “I’ve offended both Lan Wangji and Lan Qiren so much, you can wait to die tomorrow! No one will collect your body.”
Wei Wuxian waved his hand and hooked Jiang Cheng’s shoulder: “It doesn’t matter that much. Let’s tease him first and then talk about it. You have collected corpses for me so many times, and this time is no different.”
Jiang Cheng kicked him over: “Go away! Next time you do something like this, don’t let me know! And don’t ask me to come and see you!”
