Although the small sage village is big and beautiful, I have been shopping for so many days, and the original shock has long become familiar. And today, the little sage village in my eyes seems to be shrouded in a boring atmosphere, the outside world may be bloody and rainy, I can only hide here and wait for the smoke to rise in the world, passively bear the mercy of fate, there is no chance of dominance and choice, and one day this will no longer be my safe haven, all the beautiful scenery will be illusory, how many people will be scattered? I suddenly felt a cold and desolate all around.

In my frustration, I suddenly wanted to go out for a stroll, and the bustling market might make me feel better, or buy some novelty gadgets or play with it when I was bored, so as not to be cranky and make myself feel as if the whole world owed me.

I had just reached the door, and my feet were about to step out of the threshold, when suddenly I was stopped by a man. "Third Master, please stay!"

When I looked sideways, it turned out to be Zicong. He was the most intelligent and decent of his disciples, and he was often praised by the three masters, so I knew him too.

"Hello Third Master!" he saluted me.

"Zicong, what are you looking for me?"

"This... Recently, the world outside has been turbulent, and it is more appropriate for the third master not to go out. ”

I'm puzzled by how Zicong became nosy. "I'll just go out and buy something for a while, it's fine. "I took a step forward, I didn't think he was directly in front of me with his body, I blocked left he blocked, I went right he blocked right.

"What are you doing here?" I was completely confused.

"Third Master, please go back, you really can't go out. ”

I was full of suspicions, what the hell was he doing? I looked up at him, and saw that he was holding an open bamboo slip in his hand, as if he had been reading a book just now.

"Zicong, it's dark here, why can't you read a book and hold a book here!?"

"That ......" Zicong was stumbling, I felt even more weird, and asked him with an accented tone: "You explain it honestly, I won't tell the masters." ”

He was still silent, wasn't Zicong afraid of being blamed by his master for such an abrupt behavior?

"Zicong, if you don't say it, I'll go and tell Uncle Xun that you are sneaky and acting weird!"

Xunzi's name is really powerful, and after my threat, Zicong immediately said truthfully: "Third Master, in fact, the Third Master ordered me to be here." ”

"What are you doing here?"

Zicong, who usually exports chapters, suddenly became sluggish, and finally squeezed out a complete sentence. "That ....... just told me to guard the door ....... not let me...... Don't let the third master go out ......"

"What?!" I was shocked, that Zhang Liang was still really treating me as a prisoner, and he had sent someone to guard me! I was so angry that I couldn't speak, so I turned around and rushed inside, hurriedly looking for Zhang Haohao to question him, but I didn't think that I could see his figure after a big turn. The anger that I had been running for a long time seemed to have consumed more than half, and I was relieved and looked up, wasn't there a library building in front of me?

On weekdays, the door of the library is locked, but today the door is locked. I thought to myself, I haven't seen what it's like inside, and the library building is the tallest building in the Little Sage Village, and I can still climb to the top floor to have a look at the Little Sage Village, I don't know what kind of warm light there will be. So I stepped forward and pushed, the wooden door turned and made a dry creak, as if opening a dusty time and space, silent without a sound, full of old and ancient yellow tones, a fresh fragrance of bamboo slips mixed with a slight damp musty smell and charcoal burning. I couldn't help but walk in, there were piles of bamboo slips piled up on the bookshelves on the four walls, and the floor of the room was also high, at first glance, it was a bit spectacular, as if I was in a fortress made of bamboo slips. I climbed up the narrow staircase, and the more I went up, the narrower the staircase became, until at last I almost had to crawl on it to keep it from falling. Just as I was about to reach the end, I suddenly heard a familiar voice call: "Yun'er." ”

I looked up, and sure enough, it was Zhang Liang, he stretched out a hand and grabbed me, and as soon as my body was light, he pulled me up steadily. I patted the dust on my body, calmed down, brewed and dissipated most of my anger, and looked directly at him with a tortured gaze: "Ovary, what are your nerves?!"

Zhang Liang looked dazed and didn't know why. Only then did I realize that the ancients could not understand the curse word nerves, so I immediately changed the word and asked sharply: "You are sick, why did you send someone to guard the door and prevent me from stepping half a step out of Zhuangzi? Do you really think I am a prisoner?!"

He looked at me, was slightly stunned, and smiled incredibly: "Yun'er, if you want to leave the village, you can ask me to accompany you." But you can't be alone, you're not an ordinary woman, be sure to pay attention to safety, don't let me worry all the time. ”

"Don't say it nicely, tell me the truth, are you worried about me or are you using me! Do you want to spy on me like this, for fear that I will escape!"

Hearing this, the faint smile in his eyes suddenly disappeared, replaced by a piece of solemnity, he was silent for a while, looking at me with deep dark eyes, as if to see through me. "Yun'er, do you really think so?"

I was suddenly frightened by his eyes, and a trace of sadness flashed in my heart, and I instantly lost my momentum. Of course I don't think so, how Zhang Liang treats me, although I have also doubted it, but he has long been my most trusted person these days. I remember that night, his eyes were a little angry but concerned, bright and warm as moonlight, and at this time, the look in his eyes was so gloomy, could it be ...... What did my words sting to the bottom of his heart?

"Ovary, I'm ......." I felt a wave of pity for no reason, and softened my tone to explain, but I didn't know how to speak.

He seemed to sense that my anger had suddenly faded, and slowly withdrew his gaze and looked out the window.

"I'm sorry, I've been the one who has been helping you make decisions, whether it's lying that you're my wife, or not allowing you to leave the village alone. It is indeed my mission to protect you, Canglong is related to the world, not child's play, but these days, I have regarded you as a confidant. ”

"Confidant?"

"You and I are both lonely and helpless, and fate is implicated because of Canglong, which is also fate. You've always made me feel retiring, like an old friend reunited, perhaps because you know everything about me, past and future. ”

I stared at the delicate and lonely edges and corners of his side face, and suddenly my heart was moved, and I said leisurely: "We are both fallen people at the end of the world, why should we have known each other when we meet." ”

He looked at me and said gently: "You are different from me, you still have a home to miss, and I have long been alone, I have no worries, suddenly there is a person who needs to be taken care of by me, I am really a little unaccustomed to it for a while, don't worry about what you do inappropriately." ”

The gloom in his eyes had drifted away, replaced by a warm tenderness, and a light smile on his lips. But his words made my heart tighten slightly, he was so lonely, lonely that it became a luxury, and I also questioned his concern aggressively, which was really a bit unkind. At this time, it was already twilight crimson outside the window, and the little sage village was quiet and serene, glowing with golden soft light, and the beauty was suffocating. The sun is setting, and the heartbroken man is at the end of the world. This kind of desolation may not be something I can understand.

"Ovary, I'm glad you helped my confidant, Hehe. I smiled mischievously at him to liven up the atmosphere, I was really not used to this kind of solemnity, and I teased again: "I, a poor and weak woman who has no power to restrain the chicken, but I have to rely on you, Lord Mousheng! Don't dislike me for trouble!" As I spoke, my stomach suddenly gurgled and my embarrassed face turned red.

"Yun'er, let's go. Zhang Liang smiled, hugged me, I haven't come back to my senses, the person sank, a dizziness like a roller coaster, and suddenly found that the person had arrived downstairs. I stabilized my palpitations, looked at Zhang Liang, and smiled: "This...... Lord Mousheng is really powerful! This is all right! I don't have to go up the stairs...... Illustrious...... It's just a little scary all of a sudden!"

Zhang Liang looked at me, with a hint of amusement in his eyes, and said with a smile: "Next time, I will inform Yun'er in advance." ”

"Ah?...... No, I still prefer to take the stairs by myself, Hehe. ”
