86. Chapter 86
Mo Chaoyun heard Chiba say this, and only then did he realize that he remembered the banquet. She remembered that Ding Hao once said that if she was lucky, there would be palace banquets. Suddenly, she felt terrible. What kind of place is this magic cave? An intelligence network with only one hand to the sky and a palace banquet that ordinary people can hope for in their lifetime...... And that night, the iron tower that Chiba took her to, she looked at the top of the tower, and there was no end in sight, that kind of invisible oppression and might, I always felt that it was definitely not included in a small Jianghu organization, and it could even be said that if I thought about it, the power was terrifying!
Mo Chaoyun said nervously: "Chiba, what did you want to tell me about the Demon Cave at night when you took me to the Iron Tower and let me see the whole picture of the Demon Cave at night?" ”
Chiba looked at her, but didn't speak, just glanced at her after being distracted, and said, "They're leaving, let's follow." ”
"......"
"Talk as you go." Through the mask, she couldn't see Chiba's distracting face, and she was finally able to calm down and take a look at the current mess.
If, as Chiba said, the prince of the county intends to curry favor with Mrs. Yuhua, then it means that his current form is very unfavorable. When he was in the county king's mansion, he had never heard of any daily contact between him and Mrs. Yuhua, so did the change that began in the Beizhao royal family a few months ago really endanger the county king? It shouldn't be, if Cao Jinlun is dead, the king of the county should be more smooth, why is the sporadic news in his ears now so incomprehensible?
"I know you want to see him now, but you're afraid to see him, that's why you're so entangled."
Hearing Chiba say this, Mo Chaoyun also felt very frustrated, "Am I useless?" ”
Chiba said: "You just care about him, you want him to be the same as before, you are afraid just because you are not sure if you are right, in fact, you have no confidence in him in your heart, but you are a girl who misses the old, but sometimes, excessive kindness is not an advantage." ”
"Are you disappointed in me?"
Chiba didn't speak, just took her hand, and said after a while: "You're just the person who cherishes that childhood memory and gave you that memory." ”
Mo Chaoyun held his hand back, "What about you?" Who do you remember from your childhood? ”
Childhood Memories ...... It's like a world away.
The first time Chiba mentioned it to someone, he thought he would be very excited, but his tone was very flat, "There is my adoptive father, I was very young at that time, but for some reason, the memory of him is like engraved in my mind, and I will never forget it for many years. ”
Chiba's adoptive father? Mo Chaoyun's eyes widened, "You, you too...... Like me, an orphan? ”
Chiba sneered, "Otherwise, do you think I jumped out of the cracks in the stones of the Demon Cave?" ”
"Do you know who your biological parents are?"
Chiba shook his head, "My adoptive father probably knows, but he doesn't want to tell me, and I never asked." ”
"Why? Don't you have a desire to know who they are at all? ”
"A child's world is very small, and if you fill a person, you won't want anyone to replace him, just like Huo Xiyun is to you, and so am I. I was very happy with my adoptive father, so I didn't really want to know who the two people who left me at the beginning were, in short, it had nothing to do with me. ”
Mo Chaoyun sighed: "Actually, I envy you for being so free, I can't do it...... And what about your adoptive father? Could it be that he is a man from the devil's cave? ”
Chiba said coldly: "How could he be?" He was killed by the people of the Demon Cave, and then I was left in the Demon Cave until now. ”
Mo Chaoyun was stunned, "What?" Killed? ”
Chiba smiled coldly, "At that time, I was still very young, I forgot how old I was, it shouldn't be more than five years old." My adoptive father is omnipotent in my heart, so his death in the devil's cave has a great impact on me, and for a long time I was trapped in that haze, unable to get out, and full of resistance and fear for the place where I would live alone in the future. ”
Mo Chaoyun involuntarily clenched Chiba's hand, as if he wanted to comfort him, but he heard him: "But it's over, the darkest and most difficult days are far away from me, so you don't need to comfort you." ”
"Then you used to ...... Before you became a Demon Venerable, what was it like? "I suddenly wondered what the description of this perfect boy in front of me, no, man, when he was not omnipotent before? Will it be much more humane and warm than it is now? The cruel rules of survival in the Demon Cave turned him into the alienated appearance he is now, and it is very uncomfortable to think about it.
Chiba seemed to think about it, "It's nothing special, just like you, starting from the selection of the Inhuman Pavilion, injuries were commonplace at that time, and being calculated and bullied was as common as everyday, and the days were very dull, so I didn't bother to remember, and over time it became a blur." ”
Mo Chaoyun suddenly stopped, then hugged Chiba's waist and leaned into his arms. He was slightly stunned, and finally a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Is it true that once a man sells his suffering, a woman will be so sympathetic and comforting?" I don't think I had much experience before, but if I had said that, I guess I would have liked me more now. ”
"You hate it." Mo Chaoyun was sullen when she said this, although through the clothes on his chest, he could guess that she was crying. It's really a girl who is as soft as a bunny, silly, stupid, but innocent and cute. If it weren't for the current encounter, as she said, they were just ordinary encounters on the road, maybe he would want to try it with her, but unfortunately, there is never a if in this world.
Chiba raised his head and watched the four-cornered whirlwind halberd that had been following them turn into an inn not far away. The corners of his lips curled slightly, if it was a normal day, he was followed by two sneaky figures wearing masks behind him, these people who were obviously practicing the family, it was impossible not to notice. However, it coincidentally is that today is a temple fair, and the streets are full of people, and there are even more tourists wearing various masks like carp crossing the river, which lowers their vigilance. People's hearts have blind spots, and the blind spots of several of them are conceited, they feel that they are not easy to mess with, and no one will dare to target them at all, which is a taboo for walking the rivers and lakes. But thanks to these stupid melons, his actions are a lot less laborious.
"Alright, get up, everyone around you is watching you, you daring girl." Although the men and women who traveled tonight had some thoughts about you and me, there were only a few people like Mo Chaoyun who leaned directly into Chiba's arms. Of course, Chiba wouldn't tell her that most of the people who looked at them were women, and they were all staring at him, after all, although he was wearing a mask, he was long and jade, and at a glance, he knew that he was a beautiful son.
Mo Chaoyun was a little shy when he heard this, and said stiffly: "Our girls in Beizhao are not like you Nanyue, if I like you, I must let you know that I am the only one who is uncomfortable." ”
Chiba sneered: "It's better to be uncomfortable alone than two people to be uncomfortable together, well, you've been doing a good job of that." ”
"Hey!" Mo Chaoyun raised his head from Qianye's arms, and sighed, "What about them?" ”
"You just rubbed the oil on me all the way, which really made you stare at people, and you lost it in an instant."
"How can I rub oil? I'm comforting you...... Also, who said I couldn't do it with people, I used to be very good! ”
Chiba glanced at her, "So you're embarrassed now, do you blame me?" ”
"No, where did they go?"
Chiba pouted, "The inn." He pondered for a moment and said, "But since it is related to Mrs. Yuhua's birthday, they must still have carriages and horses, so let's visit them in the evening." ”
"You're going at night?" Mo Chaoyun was a little worried, "But he ......"
Chiba said coolly: "If you dare to say that he is a master of the outside world, I will kill him tonight." ”
"Hey, don't." Mo Chaoyun lowered his face, "Okay, then you must not alarm them." ”
Chiba patted her on the head, "Don't worry, I won't startle the snake at the moment, after all, I don't plan to return you to Huo Xiyun right now." ”
Mo Chaoyun cut off, "What to send back?" Who are you? Dare to give me away? ”
Chiba coughed, "Xianggong, you forgot, we're still pretending to be husband and wife now." ”
Mo Chaoyun was a little twisted when he heard this: "But didn't you say that I shouldn't pretend to be a husband and wife in the future?" ”
"Dress up, at least don't give up halfway this time." After speaking, he pulled Mo Chaoyun's hand, "Go back." ”
"Hey, if you said you wanted something to buy me tonight, does it count?"
Chiba raised her eyebrows, "Count, what do you want?" ”
"Rock sugar gourd, and that skewer cake."
"Lady, eat these at night, your waist will get thicker and thicker."
Mo Chaoyun snorted, "I get angry at the mention of this, you and Aunt Yun complained that I ate a lot, didn't you?" ”
"Isn't it?"
"I'm eating vegetarian with you now, and I'm practicing at high intensity every day, why don't you say it!"
Chiba didn't squeak, just pulled her to the rock sugar gourd stall and bought her five sugar gourds.
Mo Chaoyun was pleasantly surprised: "So many? ”
Chiba snorted, "I have a toothache from eating, so I guess I won't have time to mess with me." ”
"You hate ......"
"Lady, you love to talk back."
“……”
Seeing that Mo Chaoyun and Chiba were talking and laughing when they entered, Lian Zhen gave Chiba a thumbs up when he turned his back to Mo Chaoyun, and squeezed his eyes at the same time, saying that he couldn't see that an ascetic like him was very experienced in coaxing women, and admired and admired.
Chiba glanced at Lian Zhen in disgust, ignored it, and led Mo Chaoyun back to the room.
