Chapter 50 The so-called love
If she wants to let down her guard, confess to Chu Yu that she is a cultivator without any scruples, and even say that she will teach him the cultivation exercises she knows to practice, at least so far, she really can't have such a big courage. He couldn't tell whether he was impulsive or a lifelong love affair, and when he thought of this, she was really cowardly.
Chu Yi, who was quietly paying attention to Xing Lu on the side, saw that she was indifferent to what everyone was talking about, and a touch of loss flashed in her eyes.
After dinner, Xing Lu packed up his things and returned to the tent, and saw Chu Xiran sitting there waiting before he started cultivating.
"Sister Lulu, are you angry today?" she asked with a solemn face.
"What, why do you ask?" Xing Lu frowned a little puzzled.
"I'm making fun of you and my brother at the dinner table today, are you upset? I didn't hear a word from you during the whole meal. Chu Xiran looked at Xing Lu and asked seriously, his usually smiling little face suddenly became flat, making familiar people feel a little uncomfortable when they saw it.
"No, you also said it was a joke, how could I be angry with you for a joke. Xiaoxi, you think too much, I just don't know what to say. Seeing that Chu Xiran was rarely serious, Xing Lu hurriedly explained to her, although she didn't feel that she had done anything wrong.
"So if it's not a joke? Sister Lulu, my brother really likes you, what about you? Will you like my brother and be with him?"
"Don't talk nonsense, Xiaoxi, your brother is the pride of the sky, he has always been high, how can he look down on an inconspicuous orphan girl like me! There is a difference between the two of us, I can only look up to a person like him, and I won't think anything wrong, you still don't joke like this in the future." ”
"Sister Lulu, don't be presumptuous, except for being an orphan girl, what else are you not worthy of my brother? There is no distinction between families in my family, and no one will dislike you!"
"Xiaoxi, I hope this matter can end here, and don't mention it again in the future. You're just guessing, have you ever thought that if this is not the case, your brother doesn't like me, and then saying such things will not look good on both sides, and in the end we may not even be able to be friends. ”
"But I think my brother really likes you, he is different from you, why can't you believe my words and give him a chance to pursue you!"
"Hehe, Xiaoxi, you are still young, and you don't understand that the relationship between two people is not how much you can get. Let's not say if it's true that your brother likes me, even if he really likes me, I won't give your brother a chance until I'm sure I can repay him the same like. If I promise you now, give him and me hope, and find out that we don't like each other as much as we imagined, it will be everyone who suffers, including you. ”
"If my brother is good to you and likes you, why do you still dislike him, I don't understand. Chu Xiran made Xing Lu's likes and dislikes dizzy.
"When you grow up, you'll understand when you have someone you like, little girl. She looked puzzled and was about to turn herself cute, so she couldn't help but step forward and scratch her nose. "A momentary liking is not love, what I yearn for is the relationship between two people who can have the same goals and pursuits, and finally come together naturally, rather than the emotional exchange that one must accept and give back to the other. The hazy good feeling is just a momentary confusion, and it can't last long. She persuaded Chu Xiran, and at the same time she was convincing herself.
"No matter, I can't figure it out anyway. It's just Sister Lulu, you won't ignore my brother in the future because of this incident, right?" deliberately didn't ask if the hazy favor in Xing Lu's mouth was aimed at her brother, she didn't want to press Xing Lu step by step.
"No, I will still treat him the same as now, there will be no change. But if you make a joke like this in the future, I don't guarantee that you won't change your attitude. ”
"Don't worry, Sister Lulu, this will be the last time. I also hope that the two of you will come together naturally in the end. Hehe~ Okay, I'm going to start cultivating, I was just thinking about this just now, and I haven't finished my homework yet. After speaking, he sat down cross-legged neatly and concentrated on cultivation.
Xing Lu, who said what was in her heart, also felt relieved. She knew in her heart how much she cherished the sincere friendship of the little girl in front of her, and she didn't want to lose her sincerity because of such a thing.
The next day, Xing Lu got up to make breakfast for everyone as usual, and her calm expression was no different from usual. And seeing that she was still busy with nothing unusual from before, Chu Yu next to her was relieved and a little depressed at the same time.
The reassuring thing is that she didn't turn her face angry because of yesterday's incident, and she can still keep the same way she got along with her. It's frustrating that it doesn't seem like he has set off even the slightest ripple in her heart, and it can't affect her mood.

Yuncheng at the foot of Yunjin Mountain is a famous hilly city in China, the largest economic center city in southwest China and an important transportation hub. Its long history and culture, numerous cultural landscapes and scenic spots, as well as the unique mountain city style, not only enrich the connotation of this famous cultural city, but also add luster to the tourism development of Cloud City.
Here, the natural scenery and cultural landscape blend with each other and complement each other, attracting more and more domestic and foreign guests to travel and explore before the catastrophe. It has also been rated as one of the top ten livable cities in China, and has become a recuperation mecca for everyone in China after retirement.
After the cataclysm, the city gradually became a dead city because its greenery was too good, and there were too many mutated plants and animals that were not suitable for human survival. Such a huge reversal can't help but make people sigh.
Walking on the streets of Cloud City, the high-rise buildings that can be seen everywhere are hollow, and they look more and more depressed and dilapidated.
"I was here a year before the end of the world, and it was a very different place than it is now. Uncle Cang looked at the situation outside the window with great emotion.
"Yes, we've passed a lot along the way, and none of them have been left intact. The more prosperous it was before the cataclysm, the more desolate it is now. Uncle Cang agreed.
"It used to be full of tourists, but now it's just us on the big streets, oh, the power of nature, it's terrible. ”
"Nature cannot be blamed for everything, and human beings are most responsible for what they are doing now. If it weren't for the greed of human beings, all kinds of natural and man-made disasters would not have occurred so frequently, and cataclysms would not have come so suddenly. ”
"I guess many people regret it now, right? It's a pity it's too late! No one has a chance to start all over again!"
"By the way, the news of the poisonous wasp happened on the outskirts of Cloud City, right? At that time, a small wasp easily poisoned a teenage child, and finally a dozen firefighters were fully armed to take down the hive. I suspect there were mutated creatures at that time, but they were so small that most people didn't notice them. ”
"There are also hairy frogs, huge parameciums, two-legged snakes, red rats, mosquitoes with incurable viruses, etc., which may all be animals that mutate in advance, but in small numbers, and people talk about it as a novelty, and then the genetic mutation should have already begun. ”
……
The two of you came and went, talking happily, and the strange and inexplicable atmosphere in the car gradually became warmer.
At noon, the convoy only stayed for more than ten minutes, and after informing everyone to settle lunch in the car, they continued to hurry. Xing Lu used this time to quickly replenish a lot of food for several people in the other car.
"I don't know why they are in such a hurry, as if there is some good waiting for them to pick it up. Chu Xiran pouted and complained. Not being able to stop to eat made her very unaccustomed, and the smell of various foods was stuffy in the car and could not be dispersed for a long time.
"Well, it's good. Chu Yu opened his mouth and said the first sentence of the day.
"What's the benefit?Brother, even you know this?" Chu Xiran's dark eyes widened.
"The Luoxia Peak Forest in front is a typical karst landform, what do you say can be there?"
"Karst?
