Because of Chu Qingjiu's toss, the original plan to rush back to the Xuanyue Sect was postponed again. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
There are many things that need to be decided by Su Xian in the ghost gate and Sanssouci Valley, and Su Xian had to reply to everyone in the form of letters in the inn, so he stayed in Frost City for several days.
These days, Chu Qingjiu is finally not so depressed anymore, when he has nothing to do, he reads books alone in the room, and occasionally when he is bored, he pesters Ning Er to ask Su Xian about it. And because of the last meeting, Su Xian didn't seem to hide from Chu Qingjiu anymore, and occasionally came to take a look when he had time, but there was very little conversation between the two.
Until the evening of this day, Su Xian came to Chu Qingjiu's room again, and Chu Qingjiu squinted at Su Xian and smiled: "Ah Xian came just in time, let's go out for a walk together." ”
Although Chu Qingjiu was not all good, his spirit was much better than before, and he seemed to have forgotten that all the people in this inn were from the Xuanyue Sect, and he could do whatever he wanted, and he was not happy. Ning Er was about to open her mouth to stop it, saying that she shouldn't go out casually at this time, but Su Xian quickly nodded and agreed: "Ning Er, you take him out for a walk and come back early." ”
Chu Qingjiu's current situation, one Ning Er is enough to watch and not let him get out, and Su Xian has nothing to worry about.
However, Chu Qingjiu didn't agree, only stared at Su Xian and said, "I want the goddess to go with me." ”
Su Xian's movements paused slightly.
Chu Qingjiu looked at her with a smile, as if he was sure that she would not refuse. In the past few days, everyone in the Xuanyue Sect has been respectful to him, although Chu Qingjiu doesn't know what happened, but he probably knows that others won't do anything to him, relying on the attitude of the Xuanyue Sect people towards him, Chu Qingjiu can be said to be more comfortable here than anyone else.
Sure enough, after hesitating for a moment, Su Xian agreed: "I'll go with you." ”
Chu Qingjiu finally got out of bed when she heard this, but she was about to go out with Su Xian in a thin dress, Su Xian frowned slightly as if she wanted to say something, but she still didn't say it, she just pushed the door and walked out, but she only took two steps forward, and then she felt that her body was stagnant, and her left hand was held into a cold but soft palm.
Su Xian looked back at the man, but saw Chu Qingjiu shaking the hands of the two of them, and said in a casual tone: "I haven't recovered yet, my body doesn't have much strength, you hold me." When he said this, his eyes were still fixed on Su Xian's body, as if he was afraid of being rejected, and his hand was held tighter than that.
Chu Qingjiu clearly turned red when he said this, but he refused to let go. Su Xian looked at him for a long time, then suddenly turned around, and did not let go of Chu Qingjiu's hand, but only led him out.
Chu Qingjiu followed Su Xian out of the house, and the two went all the way to the outside of the inn.
This inn is located on the outskirts of the city, outside is a verdant bamboo forest, and a secluded path leads into the forest, and I don't know where it leads. Su Xian didn't look back at Chu Qingjiu at all, but her steps seemed to be deliberately slowed down, so that Chu Qingjiu, who was injured, could just follow her. Chu Qingjiu laughed behind Su Xian, and the two walked into the forest together, Su Xian was silent, and Chu Qingjiu said: "The scenery here is not bad, that guy Qiutang always praises the scenery of Sifang City as the first in the world, I think it's actually not much worse than Sifang City." ”
Although Chu Qingjiu said this casually, the scenery of this bamboo forest is indeed extremely beautiful, it is the height of summer, the bamboo forest at night has fallen into the heat, the cool breeze is blowing, the stars are faint and faint from the cracks in the forest, and the falling bamboo leaves are swept under the two people by the night wind, swaying and drifting away, it is really a leisurely picture.
The two walked for a while, and a pavilion appeared in front of them, with square lanterns hanging in the corners of the pavilion, and the dim light illuminated the entire bamboo forest with warm colors. ”
"It's fine
。 Su Xian did not refuse, the two held hands and entered the pavilion, this pavilion seems to be deliberately placed in the bamboo forest by the inn, there are all kinds of tea in the pavilion, and there is even a seven-string guqin next to it, and the bamboo leaves are sprinkled on the side of the qin. Chu Qingjiu stared at Naqin for a while, and he didn't know what he thought, so he suddenly laughed.
Su Xian looked at him sideways, his smile was very shallow, and it looked unusually soft in the warm yellow light.
Chu Qingjiu turned back to Su Xian and said, "Shall I play the piano for you?" ”
Su Xian finally hesitated this time: "You? ”
I don't know what the tone of this voice is, Chu Qingjiu listened to it, the smile on his lips became stronger, and he nodded: "Yes." As he said this, he quickly pulled Su Xian and asked her to sit down opposite him. Chu Qingjiu gently brushed his clothes, sat down in front of the piano, and really looked like he was playing the piano.
In the past, when Chu Qingjiu was trapped in the Xuanyue Sect, he always liked to play the piano, and his piano was borrowed from Su Xian, and the sound of the piano was really unpleasant, causing the entire Xuanyue Sect to feel numb when he heard the sound of the piano for a period of time. Later, when Chu Qingjiu had nothing to do, he would go to Su Xian with the qin and ask Su Xian to teach him to play the piano, but no matter how Su Xian taught, he always couldn't play the tune.
But even so, Su Xian was still happy to teach Chu Qingjiu, and Chu Qingjiu still went to Su Xian every day.
But today, the sound of Chu Qingjiu's piano is different from before.
The clear sound of the piano flowed out of the strings in his hand, and even the wind seemed to be still in the empty bamboo forest.
This song is "Acacia", which is the song that Su Xian taught Chu Qingjiu thousands of times in the small building, and it is also the song that Su Xian played when he was healing Chu Qingjiu the day before yesterday.
Chu Qingjiu played very well, as if he had played it thousands of times.
He raised his eyes to look at Su Xian, the smile in his eyes had already disappeared, and his heavy eyes were filled with indescribable feelings.
But Su Xian didn't look at Chu Qingjiu, she sat in the pavilion and turned her head slightly, Chu Qingjiu could only look at her half of the side of her face, and saw that her long eyelashes seemed to tremble slightly.
Chu Qingjiu then fell silent, he lowered his head and played seriously, only to hear the sound of the piano echoing in the forest, startling the birds and silencing the night.
After a long time, Chu Qingjiu gently twisted the last note, sat in front of the piano, and was silent for a long time.
He looked at Su Xian again, but saw Su Xian leaning against the pillar of the pavilion, his eyes closed, as if he had already fallen asleep due to sleepiness. Chu Qingjiu tugged at the corners of his lips, as if he wanted to smile at the sleeping Su Xian, but he didn't laugh after all. He has always been a person who is at ease with what comes his way, and he feels that life in the world is to live happily and happily, no matter what the point is.
But it was the first time he felt that laughing was such a reluctant thing. These days, he and Su Xian can meet every day and can talk a little, but for him, the distance between the two has never been so far. He didn't know what Su Xian was thinking, and he didn't know what she wanted, someone who was once extremely familiar would become such a strange look, Chu Qingjiu couldn't imagine it no matter what.
"Ah Xian." Chu Qingjiu's voice was very soft, as if he wanted to say something to Su Xian, but he was afraid of waking people up.
He looked at the sleeping Su Xian in a daze, and after Su Xian didn't react for a long time, he smiled bitterly and said, "You actually remember, right?" ”
"That day in the inn, you played the flute to heal me, I was actually awake, I listened, and this was the piece you played that day
。 Chu Qingjiu got up slowly, he had been sitting in the night breeze for a long time, and his body was still a little weak, so he stood up like this, he shook his strength before he stood firmly, and walked towards Su Xian with vague steps.
Su Xian was still asleep, Chu Qingjiu sat down beside Su Xian, lowered his eyes, and said in a low voice: "You remember this song, remember me, you remember all this......"
"But why do you remember it?" Chu Qingjiu's voice was so light that it seemed to be sighing, he looked at Su Xian quietly, and then said after a long time, "Can the memory and heart of the Ten Thousand Spirits Demon Heart really wash away everything in the past?" Don't you even want to talk to me? ”
"What the hell am I going to do?" Chu Qingjiu's eyebrows frowned slightly, raised his hand and gently brushed Su Xian's cheeks, and his voice trembled slightly, "Ah Xian." ”
It is only at this time that he can say all these words.
If it was Su Xian, who was calm and indifferent when he was sober, he didn't even know what kind of expression he should face it.
Chu Qingjiu's fingertips fell along Su Xian's cheeks, and he was about to speak again, but he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the tears flickering in the corners of Su Xian's eyes.
"Turns out you're not asleep." Chu Qingjiu's voice was slightly astringent, and his fingertips were gently raised, wiping away the tears from the corners of Su Xian's eyes.
Su Xian finally opened her eyes slowly, and there was clearly water in her eyes.
The two looked at each other wordlessly, but no one spoke first, and no one dared to speak first.
Chu Qingjiu held his breath, as if he was afraid that any movement would crush the dream in front of him.
Su Xian blinked the last bit of emotion in his eyes, and finally calmed down: "You didn't run away just now, I'm afraid you won't have a chance to leave again in the future." ”
"Why should I go?" Chu Qingjiu finally laughed again, but that smile was really reluctant in the eyes of people: "There is food and drink here, there are beauties in my arms, and no one embarrass me, why do you want to go?" ”
Before Su Xian could say anything, Chu Qingjiu said again: "Are you deliberately pretending to be asleep and letting me go?" ”
Su Xian was noncommittal, and Chu Qingjiu asked, "Why?" ”
Why?
Su Xian said lightly: "Because I don't have to kill you......"
"Ah Xian."
Su Xian didn't finish his sentence, but he was suddenly embraced into a familiar embrace.
Chu Qingjiu's embrace has always been gentle, but at this moment, it strangled her to pain. Su Xian had never seen him lose his temper like that, like a person who was about to drown in the abyss, desperately holding on to the last bit of hope on his side. His voice was hoarse, choked, and he buried his head in Su Xian's neck with all kinds of grievances and said, "Why do you want to do this, why don't you recognize me, what are you hiding, tell me okay...... Tell me all about it, let me help you, I can do anything, don't worry about anything, you don't want to ...... Don't ignore me, okay? ”
Su Xian had already hardened his heart, and he was ready to say what he was going to say, but after hearing Chu Qingjiu's crying voice, the tears finally couldn't be controlled and burst out of his eyes.
Why did it become like this, this question Su Xian thinks about every day, is afraid every day, and lives better than death every day, but she ...... Don't dare to say anything, can't say anything.
