Chapter 44: A Chance Blizzard
It's time to go again.
After packing up, Higashino Que found a carriage.
He carefully opened the door of the carriage and helped him up, "Be careful. ”
"I'm not a kid anymore, so I don't have to be so careful. He winked at him, then shouted to the back of the carriage, "You follow us in a carriage, anyway, I always knew about your existence, and I didn't have to hide on purpose." ”
Qian Yan listened, walked out from behind the hidden door, and looked at Yihe and Dongye Que with some confusion.
She had a long-lost smile on her face, indicating that she was in a good mood, and she hadn't seen such a smile for a long time.
"Why are you still stunned, get in the car. Dong Yeque gestured with his eyes, Qian Yan immediately obediently got into the car and sat next to him, for a moment he felt that his heart was beating very fast, as if it was about to jump out, he skimmed it with his afterglow, and she didn't notice it.
"Gone. ”
The carriage drove steadily forward.
No one knows what will happen to their next destination or who they will meet.
From time to time, a cold wind would come in through the cracks of the car, and he unconsciously wrapped his clothes tightly and sat on the side.
"Aren't you cold. ”
Qian Yan stretched out his hand to touch her, but she ruthlessly knocked her off, "Don't touch me." ”
He said coldly, his eyes did not linger on him for a moment, not even for a moment.
It's like treating him like air.
Qian Yan retracted his hand stupidly, took off his clothes and handed it to her, "You wear mine first, don't catch a cold." ”
There is no response.
Qian Yan got up and draped his clothes on her, his fingers stopped when they touched her body, the biting coldness, he looked down at the neck of Qian He again, and the green tendons burst out, and the whole person was trembling.
As for this symptom, it seems to be ...... Cold.
"You ......"
He put his hand to his mouth and made a shushing gesture to signal him not to continue.
"I know, you don't have to say anything. ”
"You can't go north, you can't afford it. Qian Yan said softly.
"I want to go to the north to see, what the former Beimo Villa was like, to see what the customs of the north are different from our Jiangnan, I heard that the northerners are bold and the southerners are gentle, and I have to see it to know if it's true. He smiled indifferently, and finally glanced at Qian Yan levelly.
"If you want to go to Beimo Villa, I can take you there, let's go again in the summer, the north is really cold now, and there is a famine, how can a body like you hold on. Qian Yan sighed, and suddenly he seemed to realize something, and looked at Qian He in surprise, "You insist on going now, do you want to see someone." ”
He didn't speak.
"Qian Huan, right?"
He still didn't speak.
"You've actually always liked Qian Huan, right?"
She looked at the car window blankly, two lines of tears slipped down, she didn't know, whether this was a liking or not, but it seemed to be a kind of dependence in the dark, she knew that Qian Huan was heartbroken when he tied up Dongye Que and went to the water prison, not because she was worried about Dongye Que, but sad why the bright and upright Qian Huan in her mind became like this.
Later, she trusted him again and again, but she was heartbroken.
Her heart seemed to be dead.
"I see. ”
There was silence in the carriage, Qian Yan frowned, and his right hand firmly grasped the flute pinned to his waist.
After running on the road all day, Higashino Que stopped the car, opened the car door, and reached out to help him down, "Are you cold?"
"I'm fine. He returned the clothes on his body to Qian Yan and thanked him casually, "Thank you, I'm not cold." ”
"I'll draw you a hand warmer, and if you stick it on your clothes, it won't be so cold. Dong Yeque said and stretched out his hand to draw a fire-glowing talisman in the air, and handed it to Yu He, "Your physique is yin and cold, this talisman can help you recuperate." ”
"Good. He took the talisman and pasted it on his underwear, and instantly felt his whole body warm.
"It's already north here, I think the wind is a little wrong, it may snow tonight, let's find a place to settle down and rest. ”
Qi He and Qian Yan nodded, but as far as the eye could see, the once prosperous city had long been lonely, and the radius of a hundred miles was almost deserted, and the few remaining dilapidated houses that had not been affected by the war were also separated by ventilated walls.
"Let's burn some firewood, it's too cold. Qian Yan said as he walked to one of the rooms and knocked politely on the door, "Is there anyone?"
No one answered.
He increased the strength of his hands, but still no one answered.
Higashino Que walked over with the help of Yuhe and pushed the door open, just as he expected, it was empty, and the whole city was empty.
"Come in first, it's already snowing. As he spoke, he looked up at the sky, and a few scattered snowflakes were drifting down, "Youhe, have you ever seen snow?"
He shook his head.
It turns out that the snow in the north is like this.
The snow was falling heavier and heavier, gradually covering the city, making the cold night even more silent and cold.
"We are in the north, it starts to snow before late autumn, our snow is dry, maybe when we sleep, it is as high as our knees, my brother and I often get up in the morning to have snowball fights, the snow is pinched into a ball and hits people It doesn't hurt, and it's even a little numb. Qian Yan said while eating steamed buns, he hadn't seen the snow in the north for many years, and he didn't know how Qian Huan was doing in the villa, and whether he had re-energized the villa.
These days, it was as if he was isolated from the world, and he knew nothing about the outside world.
"You must have had a great time when you were kids. ”
"Hmm. Qian Yan nodded, "If my father was still here, maybe my brother and I would still be hiding under his wings, and Qian Huan wouldn't be able to grow up so quickly." ”
"I'm sorry, but it was my fault at the time. Higashinoque, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly opened his mouth.
"I've always wanted to ask you, why?"
"As I said, because your father killed my best friend and uncle, and captured so many Japanese soldiers, my Higashino family, as the most outstanding Fu Taoist family in Japan, naturally wants to seek justice, but I recently feel that it is indeed what I did wrong. ”
"What did you do wrong?"
"I saw the soldiers who were mutilated under the Japanese ****, one by one, they were inhumane, burning, killing and looting, and all the evil deeds were done, so I began to wonder if my previous choice was correct, maybe if Beimo Villa was still there, the north would never be in such a situation as it is now. ”
"But the villa is gone, and Qian Yan alone can't support the entire villa. Qian Yan snorted, "You say you regret it now, but the person is dead, and it's useless." ”
"I will do my best to make amends, for you and Beimo Villa, to atone for the mistakes I have made. The corners of Higashinoque's eyes drooped, and he could vaguely feel that his eyes were a little moist.
"Then are you willing to use your skills to kill your countrymen?"
"If I don't stop it, Japan will be completely finished. Dong Yeque said, his eyes firm, "Killing some soldiers who maintain **** is also to save more people, and we can't let so many people die anymore." ”
"Dong Ye Que, in fact, there are some moments when I admire you, you are well aware of righteousness and decisive and brave. Qian Yan ate the last bite of steamed buns, leaned on a pillar and sat down, glanced back at Dong Yeque, and laughed softly.
