Chapter Seventy-One: A Confession

"My things?" Jiang Chengzi muttered to himself and turned around, and saw that Ah Nian didn't mention the lantern, so he ran over so quickly, kicking the flower platform and almost tripping.

He was really holding a small package in his hand, and the outside of the package was a cloth with white flowers on a blue background, which was the same color as the cloth that Jiang Chengzi had wrapped potatoes and sweet potatoes before.

Seeing this, she was suddenly shocked. This thing is related to his own future and fate, as well as Yang Qingrang's brilliant future, and it may also be a weapon that can help King Han in the future.

"Earlier, when you came out of the shield array, you accidentally fell off. At that time, I talked to Yao Ziqiu again, and I forgot to return it to you. He said, handing over the package.

Jiang Chengzi put the lantern aside, took the package, quickly opened the cloth, took a look, and felt that the potatoes and sweet potatoes were fine, so he breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "Thank God, it is still intact." ”

"What is this?" Ah Nian originally thought that it would be money and jewelry, or her daughter's rouge gouache, no matter how bad it was, it would have to be some kind of jewelry. But he didn't expect that this girl would not shy away from opening it in front of him, and it was actually an unknown thing, which looked like the roots of a plant.

"Good stuff. Jiang Chengzi smiled at him, and then said very respectfully, "Thank you, Ah Nian Gongzi." These are two of the three things that Master gave me before she severed her relationship with me. ”

"Ah, that's not a mortal thing. No wonder I haven't seen it. He was taken aback. Originally, he was skeptical about her search for immortals, but he had to believe it, because he had gone through too many strange things.

"This is all things. It's just that it is not owned by the Central Plains, and it grows in an extremely rare place, and ordinary people can't get it. When Master gave it to me, it was actually Master who had a big heart and wanted to give it to the world. Jiang Chengzi talked nonsense, so that he would find Li Shimin to cooperate in the future and carry out large-scale promotion.

She has thought very clearly in the past few days, especially when she was on the line of life and death before. In this life, since there is an adventure, we must not live up to the gift of the heavens, and we must live a prosperous life, have a taste, and be free.

"To the world? He was very puzzled, even though he had been through too much, she was someone he could never understand. In his opinion, how can such a treasure be vulgar in the world?

"That's a long story. Jiang Chengzi didn't think about how to say it well for a while, so he put the package in his arms and prevaricated with such a sentence.

"Oh. Ah Nian is also interested, knowing that people say this, but they don't want to say it anymore, so they don't ask much, just walk forward side by side with her, and go to her aunt and eldest brother together. Side by side under the eaves of the porch, the nine-year-old was still too young and not tall, and could only reach his shoulders.

He thought of the past, when he had never walked side by side with her, nor had he ever looked at her, and to this day, he did not know how tall she was, but he could reach his shoulders.

Thinking of the past years, he only felt layers of pain in his heart, and he was so painful that he wanted to give himself a knife. Because he was so distracted, when he went down the steps, he suddenly stepped into the air and almost fell.

Jiang Chengzi's eyes were very good, and he had noticed from the moment that Ah Nian's soul was not giving up, as if he had something on his mind. Seeing that he didn't even look at the steps, he couldn't help but reach out and tug at his sleeve and shouted, "Be careful." ”

"I, I'm fine. He was a little embarrassed, and he also boasted that he wanted to protect her family, and now she has to fall down the next step, how can she feel safe.

Jiang Chengzi only felt that the young man in front of him was no longer the almost demonic young man of the Weeping Willow Inn, calm and self-controlled. Today's Ah Nian looks like a stupid teenager.

She couldn't help but laugh and said, "I didn't ask you either." ”

"Iβ€”" He was so choked by her words that he didn't know what to say, and he had to hesitate awkwardly for a while, before coughing twice and saying in an extremely lonely tone, "I just remembered her." I don't know how tall she is, I've never walked side by side with her. At that time, I was afraid to see her, so I always avoided herβ€”"

His tone became more and more lonely, but when he said this, he couldn't say any more, so he only bowed his head and stood under the flower tree beside him. The flower tree was full of light purple unknown flowers, which had an indescribable bleakness in the unknown light of the lantern.

She also stopped, not knowing what to say, and in silence with each other, they only felt that the surroundings were even colder. When Jiang Chengzi said the first sentence "I just remembered her", she knew that Ah Nian was talking about his deceased wife. Although she had been questioning the existence of this deceased wife before. But there are all kinds of indications that either the deceased wife still exists.

In addition, Ah Nian is a person who stabs words, and he is a person who has experienced great changes. Then, or Ah Nian's figure has been affected, in fact, this person is much bigger than he looks. Moreover, perhaps this accident is also related to the deceased wife.

Jiang Chengzi was silent, silently thinking about what Ah Nian said about his deceased wife, and after thinking about it a little deeper, she felt an inexplicable tingling in her heart, which made her feel that there seemed to be an bottomless abyss in front of her, which was very terrifying.

She was frightened, and adjusted her breathing slightly to stabilize her mind. But I heard Ah Nian say slowly after a long silence: "Until now, the only thing I can remember is the first time I saw and died. ”

As he spoke, tears flowed down his eyes, and a stifled whimper sounded in his throat, like the neighing of some wounded beast.

Jiang Chengzi stood aside, not knowing what to do, just watching a tree of purple flowers falling in the cold mountain wind, like a grand sorrow.

She thought: At this moment, the only thing she can do is to be a listener. Or, in the years he has experienced in the past, he has kept these regrets, beauty, and guilt in the bottom of his heart, and has never opened the seal. rotted and fermented in the abyss of his heart, becoming a heart-eroding Gu poison, gnawing at his heart from time to time.

Now, he should have reached a tipping point where he needed to confide. Otherwise, you will definitely become crazy.

Therefore, Jiang Chengzi stood in the rain of purple flowers in the sky, quietly looking at the masked boy in front of him, waiting for him to talk. It took him a long time before he looked at a flickering lantern nearby, and spoke of their first meeting in a voice with a slight warmth. He said: "I reluctantly lifted off her hijab, the red candle flickered, and in the drunken haze, I saw only her face, like the most brilliant clouds I have ever seen in my life, and those eyes, shining like the brightest stars in the sky." ”

There was a warm smile on his lips as he said this, and then he continued, a little self-deprecatingly, "At that time, I was like a fool. In an instant, the Chu River Han Realm that she had thought about before fell apart when her idea of never existing. For the first time, I realized that my mind could be out of control. ”
