Chapter 735: Farewell
In early spring, the weather was still a little cold.
He and Gu Xiaoshuang stood side by side on the top of Mount Tai rising from the sea of clouds, looking to the east, waiting for a round of morning sun to break through the sea of clouds, just like every morning in their past days.
Over the years, they have left their footprints in too many places, and in every corner of this world, they may have left their memories.
Gu Xiaoshuang's slightly cold hand clenched his hand, and he trembled inexplicably.
He felt that Gu Xiaoshuang was cold, so he took off his robe and draped it on Gu Xiaoshuang's body.
Gu Xiaoshuang looked at him, smiled slightly, and said softly with a bit of anger: "It's really getting more and more incomprehensible." ”
He looked slightly stunned, and even reached out to hug Gu Xiaoshuang tightly, and Gu Xiaoshuang was like a baby held by his mother, curled up in his arms a little stricken.
"I'm a little tired these days, and today ...... Let's not move around today, let's just stay in the town below the mountain for a day, okay?" Gu Xiaoshuang muttered softly.
He bowed slightly, Gu Xiaoshuang's request, Gu Xiaoshuang's wish, he would never go against it.
After sunrise, they returned to the town below the mountain, and Gu Xiaoshuang bought a private house very generously, which made him a little dazed: "Are we going to settle here?"
It is also a good choice to settle down in such a small town that has no quarrel with the world, and from then on away from the disturbances of the world, the couple only have to live such a free and easy life.
"Silly night. Gu Xiaoshuang smiled lightly, "It's a little cold these days, I want to eat dumplings with mutton filling, what about you, do you have anything you want to eat?"
He laughed and said, "I also want to eat dumplings stuffed with mutton." ”
Gu Xiaoshuang glanced at him with slight disgust, then took his hand and went to the butcher shop in the town to buy two catties of mutton, and bought green onions, garlic and fine white flour in the market.
Gu Xiaoshuang didn't seem to see it, with that warm smile like a spring breeze, she led him home, kneaded the dough, chopped the filling, and wrapped the dumplings.
Gu Xiaoshuang seemed to be a little naughty as if she was suddenly childlike, held the remaining flour in the palm of her hand, and blew it towards him, all of which were like falling snow, making him face with flour, and he had become a white face among the children of Liyuan.
"Don't move, I'll wipe you clean. ”
Gu Xiaoshuang pressed him on the stool, took a towel, wet it with warm water and wrung it out, pinched Ya's jaw with one hand, and wiped his face very carefully with the other, and his movements were very gentle, which reminded him inexplicably of things when he was a child, full of very warm memories.
The taste of the dumplings is very good, Xu is Gu Xiaoshuang's gluten, Xu is the filling he mixes is delicious, maybe Gu Xiaoshuang's dumplings are well wrapped, maybe he is good at burning.
It's just that no matter how delicious the dumplings are, the two of them still can't finish that big pot after all.
"It's a pity. Looking at the remaining dumplings in the pot, Gu Xiaoshuang said with some regret, "What if...... If we had a child, there wouldn't be so much left. ”
He couldn't help but smile and said, "In the future, our children will ...... It would be sad to know about this. ”
Gu Xiaoshuang didn't look shy, but laughed and said, "Yes, probably...... It's going to be sad. ”
After lunch, Gu Xiaoshuang led him to wander around the town a little aimlessly, looking at the jewelry, and then asked him if he looked good wearing it, looking at the rouge gouache, and asked him if he would have more color on his face, and when he saw someone's child, he would be full of joy and teasing it, as if it was his own child.
This long afternoon passed like this.
It was still dark early in early spring, but Gu Xiaoshuang seemed to have calculated the time, and happened to take him to the sunset pavilion on the mountainside at sunset, and looked at the railing to watch the sunset gradually set.
Gu Xiaoshuang held his hand, leaned on him tightly, looked at the sunset and said with a little melancholy: "Night...... Sun...... Will it rise tomorrow morning?"
His eyes couldn't help lowering slightly, and then he reached out and hugged Gu Xiaoshuang, took Gu Xiaoshuang into his arms, and hugged him tightly, as if he wanted to melt Gu Xiaoshuang into his flesh and blood.
Gu Xiaoshuang felt a little uncomfortable because he hugged him too hard, but she didn't struggle, but quietly enjoyed the real feeling.
As the sun sets, there is only a gloom between the heavens and the earth, but the stars also appear above the dark blue night dome.
The lawn of the mountainside cliff was full of unknown wildflowers, and the two sat side by side on the lawn, looking at the starry sky, not speaking, but snuggling up to each other, as if they were relying on each other's body temperature for warmth.
"When I was a child, I heard a story that every star in the sky represented a person...... So, I'll keep an eye on you...... No matter where you go or what time of day you are, I will always be with you. Gu Xiaoshuang finally spoke, breaking this rare tranquility.
He pursed his lips, and then hugged Gu Xiaoshuang tighter.
"Silly night. Gu Xiaoshuang said with a bit of ridicule.
He felt a little sad in his heart, but he couldn't show it, so he could only hug Gu Xiaoshuang tighter.
"It's still the same as when you were a kid. Gu Xiaoshuang's slightly cool fingers slowly rubbed his cheeks, "When I'm afraid of losing something, I will hug it tightly, ......hug it tightly, hug it tightly."
"I'll take you to the kingdom of Witch......"
"You. Gu Xiaoshuang raised her arm slightly and wiped away a little moisture from the corner of his eyes, "My life can't be saved in the first place...... I am already very content to have a few years of tranquility...... The only regret is that we didn't leave our children...... After I'm gone, you'll be the only one left, really...... Sorry ......"
"Frost ......," he began, and finally inevitably became a thick nasal voice.
"Don't blame Saintess Fang, she tried her best...... It's just fate...... But I'm already very content......" Gu Xiaoshuang's eyes drooped, as if she didn't want people to see the real emotion in her eyes, "Don't blame me for hiding it from you, because I know ...... If you knew, you would be desperate to heal me, like that...... We haven't been able to enjoy this tranquility for years. ”
He clenched his fists suddenly, his lips just opened but were sealed by Gu Xiaoshuang's fingers.
"I know you're confused...... Yes, Chen Liyan was really killed by me, and the curse in my body is also unsolvable...... I can't tell you why, because it would damage his reputation...... Don't ask again, let's just enjoy this last time, okay?"
That was Gu Xiaoshuang's last request, he was powerless to refuse, and he couldn't refuse.
All the truth doesn't matter, he just wants to accompany her to grow old, even if he really becomes a murderer, even if he is really disgraced by the world, as long as she is ...... That's enough.
"Don't be sad, I'll be with you, all the time. Gu Xiaoshuang said, paused, and then continued, "Until...... You meet another girl who deserves your love. ”
"I ......"
"Silly night. Gu Xiaoshuang interrupted him with a smile, "If we swap things, I won't be widowed for you for the rest of my life." ”
He laughed, and tears flowed.
"It's such an adult, and it's like a child, and it always worries me. Gu Xiaoshuang sat up straight and stretched out her hands to wipe away the tears from his eyes, but she couldn't hold back her tears.
She couldn't hold back any longer, hugged him tightly, sobbed in his ear, and cried: "I want to ...... I really want to be with you all the time......"
He bit his lower lip, but could only hug her tightly and gently pat her back.
She wept for a long time, and at last she stopped crying, rested her head on his shoulder, held his hand, and sat like this for a long, long time, until there was a glimmer in the east of the sky.
"Look, the sun is coming out. He whispered.
"Well, yes...... Sun...... It's going to rise. Gu Xiaoshuang also whispered softly.
He turned his head slightly, looked at Gu Xiaoshuang who was leaning on his shoulder, and said with a smile: "Let's go see the sunrise again." ”
"Hmm......" Gu Xiaoshuang snorted, then shook her head, "I'm a little sleepy, let me sleep first, okay?"
He looked a little sluggish, then bit his scabbed lower lip, and pretended to be relaxed: "Okay, when you wake up, we'll go buy a big house, and then close the door and have a lot of children." ”
"Silly Ye'er, you and I are ......" Gu Xiaoshuang's voice became more and more slight, as if it was coming from the wind, becoming ethereal and inaudible, "...... While...... What am I...... Yikes......"
Wife, of course.
He held the little hands that had been held all night and finally warmed a little, and he turned his head to look at the pale face on his shoulder that had shown a serene and quiet smile in his sleep, and then showed a happy smile.
The slight long breathing on his shoulder gradually became lighter.
He looked to the east, and watched a glimmer of blush appear at the end of the thick sea of clouds, hazy and mysterious.
"Frost, it's sunrise, and you're ready to get up. He whispered.
Yet she was asleep.
An arc appeared at the end of the sea of clouds with a patch of red, and in an instant, the sky and the sea of clouds burned like flames, not blazing, but extremely warm.
A ray of sunlight shone on his face, illuminating him a little unable to open his eyes, and making his eyes a little unspeakably uncomfortable, but he still looked straight to the east.
"Frost, get up and watch the sunrise. ”
His right hand around her shoulder shook her shoulder slightly, and his left hand involuntarily tightened the grip of that hand, unwilling to let go no matter what.
Then the sunlight became more dazzling.
A liquid called tears flowed from his eyes.
