Chapter 171: The Destruction of Mental Will
He rubbed his hair vigorously with both hands: What is this? too suddenly, too suddenly. Could it be that there are really ghosts in this world?
Really?
He opened his eyes and asked himself repeatedly, "Are there ghosts in this world?"
As a result, he asked and asked, and he didn't know the bottom of his heart, so he could only give himself a positive answer - yes, because, his eldest brother Xiao Guanxian is.
If he wasn't a ghost, how did he get in? Why did the third watch always stand by the bed in the middle of the night? Why did he pull me up because of his enmity with Duan Kun? Xiao Chuan beat his head twice hard, trying to sober himself up, I can't be taken away by him, yes, I can't let my consciousness follow his thoughts. I have no enmity with Kun Shao, I have no enmity with Kun Shao, he is my big brother, but he is a ghost! Yes, that's right, I want to control myself! No, I must control! Control!
Xiao Chuan has been muttering to himself, he doesn't dare to close his eyes now, just sitting on the edge of the bed like that, just like Xiao Guanxian when he was there, like a puddle of soft mud leaning on the edge, and from time to time he will reach out and grab the bed curtain beside him!
It was like a fear that I would collapse to the ground at any time because of the loss of strength. He kept looking out the window, desperately hoping that it would soon dawn. For he had heard that ghosts do not appear during the day.
In fact, this statement is just an excuse for Xiao Chuan's self-comfort. He once tried to tell himself to convince himself that Xiao Guanxian was a human during the day and a ghost at night. But after thinking about it carefully, I found that Xiao Guanxian's performance and reaction during the day were also extremely abnormal.
Xiao Chuan felt that his brain was about to explode, he was thinking about when Xiao Guanxian's state began, why and so on? Thinking about it, he had a splitting headache, and he even forgot to drink the medicine prescribed by Doctor Liu.
Xiao Chuan said to himself: If you don't drink it, it's useless, no matter how much you drink, it's useless! For Xiao Chuan, Xiao Guanxian's torture of his will has far exceeded the intense pain that his body can bring. Breaking his arms and legs now is more violent and direct than torturing his mind and will and destroying his psyche.
Finally caught the dawn, Xiao Chuan let out a long sigh. He turned his head to look at his hands, and on the curtain of the bed he was clutching, there were already two palm prints soaked with sweat. The joints of his palms have become white and stiff due to extreme exertion. He tried to move, slowly relieving and relaxing.
His throat was extremely dry and he tried to get a drink. After standing up with difficulty, he shook his stiff legs, but as soon as he saw Xiao Guanxian's wine glass, he instantly withdrew his hand. Turning and walking to the door, the servants had already woken up.
"Young Master, won't you sleep a little longer?"
"Can't sleep. Well, give me some water. ”
The servant was stunned: "Isn't there water in your room?"
Xiao Chuan leaned against the door and did not speak. The little servant looked at it and turned around with interest: "I'll pour it for you." With that, the servant hurriedly put down the broom in his hand, trotted into the room to get a pot of water, poured another cup, and handed it to Xiao Chuan.
Xiao Chuan took the cup and drank it all, but he felt that he couldn't quench his thirst, so he took the pot directly from the servant's hand and began to pour it into his mouth.
Such Xiao Chuan made the servant stunned: "Second Young Master, who are you?"
Xiao Chuan didn't care about it, and he didn't care if the water had soaked through his clothes, whether he could drink it everywhere, everything didn't matter anymore.
After drinking some water, Xiao Chuan only felt that his mind was a little clearer.
The servant saw the problem, and took the kettle from his hand tremblingly: "Second young master, that, that, let's go to the city today and find the Taoist priest." ”
Xiao Chuan's expression was blank, his eyes were dull, and he slowly turned his head to look at the servant: "Yes, Taoist priest!
"All, all pasted?"
"Yes, it's all pasted! A few of you need to have it too!"
"We?"
"Yes, yes, yes, there must be one!"
The servant frowned, but still agreed: "That, Second Young Master, your face is very bad." Why don't you sleep a little longer? It's just dawn now. ”
Xiao Chuan looked at the ground and muttered, "Sleep for a while?" He slowly turned his head to look at the room behind him, and suddenly panicked: "Don't sleep! ”
"Don't sleep, Second Young Master, if you don't sleep, I'm afraid your body can't do it!"
"I can't sleep! I can't sleep! When I fall asleep, he'll come! No, then you, go get a chair and put it here! Yes, right here, I'm outside the door, and I'll sleep in this courtyard. ”
Xiao Chuan said as he pointed to the ground in front of him.
"Okay, I'll carry it for you!" said the servant, placing the kettle on the ground, and running into his room. Soon he took out a rattan chair and placed it in the place where Xiao Chuan was pointing.
"Young master, you, you lie down, I'll get you a little blanket. ”
"Good, good. ”
Xiao Chuan lay on the rattan chair, did not enter the room, looked at the sky outside, there were servants beside him, and his heart seemed to be much more stable.
Seeing the sky whitening little by little, Xiao Chuan's mood gradually stabilized. Slowly, he became sleepy and fell asleep.
At this time, several servants came together and muttered in a low voice: "This second young master, shouldn't you really run into evil?"
"Who's to say it's not?
"Didn't he do this on the day he fought with General Duan? Besides, didn't he and General Duan have already reconciled?
"Who's to say it's not? I guess it's not stimulated by this?"
"Stimulated?"
"Don't you think he's stimulated like that?"
"Eh, do you know? The second young master said just now, if you invite a Taoist priest, let the family put all the houses on it, and let us have one!"
The servant on the side grinned: "Since the second young master said to look for it, then we have to find it." ”
"Let's not talk about whether we can find a Taoist priest or not, the key is that you look at him like this, I think, why don't you tell Master Hou?
"Makes sense, makes sense. ”
"I think it's better not to talk to Master Hou yet. ”
"If you don't tell Master Hou about such a big thing, who are you going to tell you?"
"No, we all know that this is training recently, and Hou Ye's foot is still injured, he is already troublesome enough. That's what I think, so let's talk to Miss Xiao Man first. ”
"Who? Miss Xiao Man? You can pull it down! Miss is chattering day by day, besides, she is still so young, what can she know?"
"What do you know? It's because of Miss's personality that she can handle big things!"
",, what's your logic?"
"Then let me ask you, we all know that Twilight Tianxue is the daughter of General Twilight, and it's really okay to ride a horse and shoot arrows to the battlefield, but the second young master and Kun Shao fought, how is she? Is she scared and crying?" Several servants on the side did not speak: "What about Miss Xiao Man? Isn't it quite calm? Let me tell you, this person's personality is different from internal and external, and it can't be generalized." ”
"Okay, don't talk about it here, let's talk about the present. After all, he is the eldest son of the Linghou Mansion and the second young master's own brother. ”
Several people surprisingly did not refute.
"You're actually right. Common sense speaking, the second young master is like this, if he doesn't alarm the Hou Ye, he should indeed tell the eldest young master first. However, the eldest young master he"
"I think the eldest young master is very good. Besides, the second young master is like this, a few of us hid it from the eldest young master, and actually ran to tell the young lady, it doesn't seem to be like that. ”
The servant was in trouble: "Then, then tell the eldest young master?"
Several people thought about it for a long time: "That's it." I'll go to the city today to find the best Taoist priest to come and write a talisman, and you go and tell the eldest young master. As for whether the eldest young master wants to tell Hou Ye that he is the eldest young master, he has the final say. You two stay in the house. How?"
"Okay, okay, that's it. ”
"Okay, I'll go after breakfast in a moment. ”
"Yes, the sooner the better. However, I don't need to notify Doctor Liu first if the second young master uses it like this?"
"Are you stupid?!What did you tell Doctor Liu to do? Now that you let Doctor Liu know, won't that alarm Hou Ye?"
"Yes, yes, yes. ”
Several people in the house were all messed up because of Xiao Chuan. Not long after he got busy, outside the door, Xiao Song saw Xiao Chuan lying in the courtyard through the crack in the door.
It happened that a servant was sweeping the floor inside the door. Xiao Song's eyes widened: "Hey, open the door!"
When the servant heard that it was Xiao Song, he gently opened the door.
"Xiao Jiang!"
As soon as the door opened, there was a squeak! Xiao Chuan jumped up from his chair and stretched out his hand to point at the door: "Close the door, close the door! Close the door quickly! What kind of door is open?"
Xiao Song was still carrying some food in his hand, and when he saw Xiao Chuan's reaction, he stood in place and didn't dare to move. He looked at it, "What are you doing? Early in the morning, scare me!"
The servant blinked, Xiao Song looked, but he didn't know what the servant meant.
Xiao Chuan saw Xiao Song's arrival, but he still focused all his attention on the open door.
The servant pulled Xiao Song over, closed the door with his hand, and re-locked the lock inside, before Xiao Chuan put down the hand pointing at the door.
Xiao Song walked forward suspiciously: "Are you mentally ill? You still lock up two roads in broad daylight? What, you have gold and silver treasures in your house? You still hide it from me, afraid that I will steal it?!".
Xiao Chuan glanced at Xiao Song and asked lightly, "Are you here?"
"Isn't this nonsense?!I'm standing in front of you, am I leaving?"
