Chapter 10 The Past Matters
Sheng Weiqiao's heart suddenly rose with anger!
Why is this man like this?!
The things that you keep saying you promise to leave behind when you turn your head?!
Or do you simply think of yourself as a child and talk casually?!
Does he take Chun Yu seriously or not?!
Don't take your body seriously?!
She instinctively wanted to get up and scold Sheng Shenghe for not talking - but thinking of the huge gap in force between the two, she still pressed it alive, took a deep breath, pinched her palm, and after brewing emotions for a moment, she said weakly: "Brother?"
"Huh?" The sleeping crane, who had been sitting cross-legged, immediately turned his head to look over. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The purple lightning that constantly pierced the night, illuminated his calm face and his eyes without any hesitation-Sheng Weiqiao's heart was sour and astringent: yes, such a big wind and rain, such a loud thunder, even a person who slept well was woken up, and how could Sheng Sleeping Crane, who didn't even have a quilt and was still sitting at the entrance of the cave to shield her from the wind, sleep?
Holding back the dampness in her eyes, she tried to make her voice look frightened and helpless: "Brother, can you come and accompany me......?" I'm afraid of thunder!"
Sheng Sleeping Crane was obviously stunned, and after a while, the atmosphere in the cave was already a little weird, and Sheng Weiqiao's cheeks in the dark were already red and hot, so he chuckled: "Good girl is usually powerful, but I didn't expect to be afraid of rain and thunder?"
āā¦ā¦ There are many people who are afraid of thunder!" Sheng Weiqiao countered with a complicated mood, feeling panicked in his chest: Isn't it that you are afraid that you will freeze out three long and two short at the door in the wind and rain, in order to coax you to come over and find a reason to cover the quilt? !
"That's right, when my brother was a child, I was also afraid of thunder, and every time there was thunder at that time, my brother would hide in the ......" Sheng Sleeping Crane said this with a smile, suddenly paused, and did not continue, but got up and let the fifth junior high school change his position, go to the corner of the cave to lie down, walked to the stone couch by himself, sat down in his robe, tucked the quilt for Sheng Weiqiao, and said with a smile, "Okay, for my brother is here, don't be afraid, go to sleep!"
Sheng Wei Qiao gave way, lifted the corner of the quilt and covered him - for fear that Sheng Sleeping Crane would not want it, and she also felt embarrassed, she felt that she should quickly find a topic to say a few words, so as to divert her attention, and asked casually: "You were also afraid of thunder before?
"I don't remember when I was old, but I guess I was very young. Sheng Sleeping Crane turned his back to the cave, his face was completely hidden in the dark, he couldn't see his expression clearly, only a pair of eyes were as bright as stars, but there was no temperature, and his tone was gentle that did not match his eyes, "Of course I'm not afraid now." ā
Sheng Weiqiao quietly reached out and pulled his hand, found the cold bones, tentatively dragged it into the quilt, saw that he didn't resist, simply dragged his hands into the quilt to keep warm, and continued to speak to hide his nervousness: "Speaking of which, how did you get to Tortoiseshell Island in the first place......? I always think that you have joined forces to hide a lot of things from me!"
"It's hiding a lot of things from the good girl. Sheng Sleeping Crane seemed to laugh a little, and actually admitted, "And the obedient brother won't tell you if he asks - so don't think about it, go to sleep!"
As he spoke, he moved his fingers, as if he wanted to touch her cheeks, but then he thought that his fingers were cold at the moment, and he was afraid that Sheng Weiqiao would freeze, so he didn't move in the end, so he only smiled, "Brother Wei is already here with you, you don't want to sleep anymore, Brother Wei really wants you to sleep in the cave!"
Sheng Weiqiao was quite depressed, and said: "Then you are not allowed to leave! Even if the thunderstorm stops, you are not allowed to leave! If I wake up tomorrow morning and see that you are not here, I will not be finished with you!"
"Okay, okay, don't go. Sheng Sleeping Crane laughed out loud this time, couldn't help but scratch the tip of her nose with cold fingers, and said with a smile, "I also said that I have grown a lot by my aunt's side in the past two years, but I am still a child in my bones, and my brother looks more childish than the year before last, huh?"
Sheng Weiqiao opened his hand and said indignantly: "You are only a child!!
Her energy is incomparable to that of Sheng Sleeping Crane, and even after sleeping in the middle of the night in the mattress that Sheng Sleeping Crane let out, she still feels sleepy like a tide after saying a few words. Because she was worried that Sheng Sleeping Crane would not be able to speak, she deliberately tugged at the corner of his clothes and fell asleep in a groggy state.
"Leader!" What Sheng Weiqiao didn't know was that not long after she fell asleep, Gongsun Xi's figure appeared at the mouth of the cave - at this moment, Gongsun Xi's black shirt and fast boots, neat and neat, even a black hair was not messed up at all, but the figure half-kneeling there exuded a thick bloody atmosphere, his eyes were even colder without the slightest popularity, and his tone was flat, "Everything is as the leader expected......"
It was only before he could say that he saw Sheng Sleeping Crane, who was facing away from him, stretched out his index finger and made a "silence" gesture with his head sideways.
Then, Sheng Sleeping Crane began to untie the tie of his coat, and after carefully leaving Sheng Weiqiao's clothes that were holding the corners of his clothes, he tiptoed out of the cave, still not at ease, and walked a long way in the rain before he stood still, and said: "Good girl just fell asleep, be careful in this situation in the future, don't wake her up." ā
Gongsun Xi, who came over, silently looked at the lightning and thunder above his head: "......"
Heaven and earth conscience, no matter how loud he spoke just now, is it not as loud as the thunder that will come?
If it weren't for the fact that both of them were masters of internal strength, if they were ordinary people, he would be talking at the entrance of the cave tonight, and the person sitting on the stone couch would not be able to hear anything!
This can also quarrel with Sheng Weiqiao?!
Unless that pampered eldest lady didn't sleep at all!
Looking at the leader who solemnly told him, Gongsun Xi felt sorry for him silently for a while, "Ten out of ten were tossed by the eldest lady again! Otherwise, how could the leader of Fang Cai be in front of the eldest lady's couch instead of being by the side of the fifth day of the junior high school? They are all eccentric old things like the grand master, but he is an outsider who will marry out sooner or later, and he actually looks at him more seriously than the only male heir! I want to see if her husband's family will indulge her like this after this squeamish and willful eldest lady leaves the cabinet!"
Thinking that Sheng Weiqiao was already fifteen years old, and there was a ceremony in March, Sheng Lanci and his wife's focus this year was to find a husband for their daughter - the loyal subordinates felt that they had finally seen the light: this nasty eldest lady would not stay in the Sheng family for long!!
I don't believe that after she leaves the cabinet, she can often go back to her parents' house to toss her own leader!
Thinking that Sheng Weiqiao would get out of the Sheng family soon, and he would no longer be able to compete with his own leader for favor all day long, although there were still dark clouds and thunder overhead, Gongsun Xi felt indescribably refreshed, and looked forward to the day when Sheng Weiqiao got married!
Sheng Sleeping Crane didn't know what he was thinking, and seeing that he was silent, he thought that this loyal subordinate had silently written down his instructions, so he got down to business: "How is the situation now?"
"Chief: Gongsun Sea Lord was really attacked halfway to Taniguchi to check the situation, if there is no leader's arrangement, it will probably be a situation of nine deaths and a lifetime!" Gongsun Xi was busy calming down when he heard this, and returned to his usual lean and calm, and said in a deep voice, "Now the island is in chaos, and it is rumored that the young sea lord is dissatisfied with the sea lord's attention to the leader, and intends to kill his father and usurp the throne...... Don't know what's next?"
Sheng Sleeping Crane said hesitantly: "The dock is guarded by the rebuilt Wuyi battalion, and someone dares to take the boat, they don't know what to do?!"
There is no leader in the current Wuyi Battalion, and the nominal leader is still Sheng Sleeping Crane - of course, there are not many people who know Sheng Sleeping Crane's identity at the moment - and the people who replace Sheng Sleeping Crane to train newcomers are the backbone brought out by Sheng Sleeping Crane. Therefore, although he, the leader, has been studying in the Sheng Mansion for two years, he is still unambiguous in commanding the hole card of the Gongsun clan.
At this moment, Gongsun Xi was suddenly awe-struck when he heard this, and straightened his originally straight spine more and more upright: "Those who stormed the dock have been killed on the spot by the Wuyi battalion!"
After saying this in a deep and quick voice, he added in a hesitant whisper, "But the island is surrounded by the sea on all sides, although there are no big boats in those places, small boats such as sampans can go, and the lights are blind, and we are short of manpower, so there must be some people who will escape......
"Leaning on the sampan?" Sheng Sleeping Crane looked up at the thunderclouds overhead, and sneered, "In this kind of weather, at this hour, the building ships dare not go to sea! If they can escape by relying on the sampan and still toss the movement, such luck will fall to the point where they are now?!" But saying that, Sheng Sleeping Crane still cautiously ordered, "After the wind and waves are a little calmer, send the building boat out to inspect a circle, if there are any fish that slip through the net, they will all be executed on the spot, and no one can be let go!"
Gongsun was happy, hesitated for a while, and then asked, "...... the young sea lord?"
"In the end, it's the blood of the eldest brother, if you can protect it, you can protect it. Sheng Sleeping Crane waved his hand absently, his face was still beautiful in the wind and rain, but he didn't have the gentleness and connivance in front of Sheng Weiqiao in the cave, his eyebrows were full of frost and snow, and there was a hint of anger in his starry eyes, and he said calmly, "But it's still our manpower first, and I really can't keep it." The big brother is still young, and he will never be an heir!"
Gongsun Xi answered again, and seeing that he had nothing else to say, he bowed and left quietly, and disappeared into the night in a moment.
After Sheng Sleeping Crane returned to the cave, he immediately mobilized his internal strength, quickly dried his wet robe, and slowly paced to the stone couch - the girl was sleeping sweetly because she was tired, but even so, the fingers that tugged at the coat he took off were still very tight.
He tried to pull it, but he didn't pull it, but instead let Sheng Weiqiao pull it in alertly, looking like he was about to wake up.
Sheng Sleeping Crane smiled dumbly, stretched out his hand that had just recovered his body temperature because of the internal force he had just operated, and gently rubbed it on her head.
This action did not stimulate Sheng Weiqiao, but rubbed against his palm - the girl's smooth and soft skin rubbed against the calloused touch of the palm, and her instinctive trust under defense, all made Sheng Shenghe feel complicated.
He knew that Sheng Weiqiao's so-called "fear of thunder" was just an excuse, because his career of licking blood with a knife over the years had already made him develop the habit of sleeping lightly and living alone.
Even this cave first appeared, not because he had to accompany the fifth day of the new year, but because his house on the island was not safe enough. In order to avoid dying in his sleep, he made a temporary residence in the scope of the fifth day of the new year - here is not only the fifth day of the new year as a helper, but also can set up all kinds of traps according to local conditions to kill those endless enemies or enemies.
Later, when he grew and no longer needed to hide in the valley, he dismantled most of the traps outside, and used the cave as a foothold in his spare time.
The nature of the country is easy to change, even if it is a weak woman who knows his roots and knows the same room with him, he is actually instinctively guarded.
That's why when Sheng Weiqiao was woken up, the rhythm of his breathing changed, and he noticed it, and he woke up immediately!
Although the girl tried to show her fear when she later asked for help, in the eyes of people who had experienced such a thing as Sheng Sleeping Crane, it was full of flaws - he didn't need to look at the words, just listening to the changes in the girl's breathing, he knew that she had no fear of thunder at all, and such a reason was nothing more than calling himself over to cover the quilt.
Sheng Sleeping Crane has always known that this sister is soft-hearted and coaxing, but the past things are different from tonight's bedding: Frankly speaking, Sheng Weiqiao's kindness in the past was probably based on the fact that she had a pair of parents who loved her and were capable, all she had to do was forgive and plead, to put it mildly, the price of those kindnesses came from Sheng Lanci and his wife, from Mrs. Sheng, from the Sheng family, and Sheng Weiqiao's own efforts were actually minimal;
But tonight's futon is really related to Sheng Weiqiao's own interests.
Whether it was the firmness of the previous intention to completely give up the futon to him, or the determination to find an excuse to share the futon with him at this moment, this girl was really afraid that he would be frozen.
Even if it comes at the cost of her own cold, or if she violates the etiquette and shame she has always recognized, and risks her honor.
Sheng Shenghe unexpectedly remembered the incident a few years ago - that is, the brother and sister he once told Sheng Weiqiao like a joke: the cowardly brother survived by betraying his sister, but after being rescued, he forced his sister to die for him in order to hide his despicability......
The rest of the people on Tortoiseshell Island, including Gongsun Shu, who reminded him that "you will regret it" when he released the brother and sister at his request, have probably forgotten about it long ago.
After all, the most important thing in the bandits' den is all kinds of tragedies.
No one knows what this means to Sheng Sleeping Crane.
