XVI. The heart of father and daughter
The sky gradually darkened, the sky was full of clouds, and the ground was like a clear light like mercury, and the occasional wind blew through it, raising up the smoke and dust in the side streets (Chapter 106 of the Legend of the Other World). Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe night was a little cold, and at this moment, Li Qi returned to the Yellow Springs Wine Country.
The wine shop is usually very different, so quiet that people feel terrible, the air is full of alcohol, Li Qi was choked and coughed repeatedly, so he quickly opened the window, the breeze blew, the moonlight sprinkled on the ground of the wine shop, faintly shining a shiny black shadow, sparkling, look closely, the figure is actually the night of the original form, stiff on the ground, the huge mouth is spraying wine, and the mouth is still burping.
"What's wrong? Why are you still drunk? If someone finds out, you'll have to be scared to death! Li Qi shouted complainingly, but Ye didn't react at all, he was still waiting for his reply, maybe he would disappear tomorrow, but he was actually drunk at this juncture, the more Li Qi thought about it, the more angry he became, and kicked Ye resentfully.
Still no reaction, this snake body is almost dead, Li Qi didn't expect that the amount of alcohol in the night was so bad, she sat helplessly by the side of the night, with her arms pillowing the night's body, looking at this body slippery, cold, and there is no difference from the past, just because the room is small, it is not as big as when the Rubik's Cube is located, which makes Li Qi suddenly think that the night has not become a snake for a long, long time.
"Why, he won't be the same as he is?" Li Qi stroked Ye's body, and suddenly found a huge scar under his neck, Li Qi was startled, and hurriedly lit the lamp, but saw that the wound was so shocking, as if he had almost cut off half of Ye's neck. This is the trace of the day's existence, even after many years, it is still burned on his body, but this is not the deepest scar on his body.
"Why, you were never my father!
Why, from the very beginning, I was just a pawn of yours! ”
Li Qi cried, and tears hit the wound of the night one by one.
"Still hate me......" Ye suddenly spoke, as if Li Qi's tears made him very painful, maybe from beginning to end, he could feel Li Qi's sadness, pain, or her joy.
Li Qi wiped away his tears and suddenly looked up, but he saw the empty eyes of the night, and his heart ached, and he didn't know how to answer.
"I made you like this, you...... Hate me, it's right......" Ye said lightly, with deep disappointment in his tone.
Hate? Don't hate! No hatred at all! So what are you angry about? Is it a gamble? Are you playing a tantrum with the people closest to you? Is this a grievance to his father?
Li Qi hesitated and wavered, over the years, he was the one he loved the most, he liked him, he was worshipped, and he cared about him the most, he was the god in his mind, but the more this was the case, the more Li Qi was afraid that he would hurt himself, and the more he was like this, the more he was angry with him and hated him, and suddenly Li Qi felt that he was very hateful, why was he so hateful!
Seeing that Li Qi was silent, Ye Chang sighed, and knew that he was not worthy of forgiveness at all, Li Qi was originally a pawn of his own, but the boring days became rich because of Li Qi, Ye felt whether he used to treat Li Qi as a pet, so even if he scolded him, it was never light or heavy, but he didn't expect that Li Qi's death would make him so regretful and painful, until then, Ye realized that he cared so much about the child in front of him, even, I love her with my life.
"I ...... It's not light or heavy to beat you, even if I killed you, but I never thought of killing you......" Thinking of this, Night finally said the words that had been held in his heart for a long time.
"If that's really the case-" Li Qi breathed a long sigh of relief, a big stone that had been sitting in his heart for a long time finally fell to the ground, now that he thinks about it, what if he kills himself at night? It was he who raised himself, it was he who gave himself life again and again, what did he owe to himself? Is it owed to him to grow old a little, or to the gorgeous hair on his head, and to the young and handsome man who is as young and handsome as a god no longer exists, he is growing up with his life in exchange for himself.
"Old ghost, I didn't hate you at all......
Because, I ...... I can't hate it......"
Li Qi's heart was sour, and the long-lost title finally blurted out today.
"Little Ghost ......" changed back to the appearance of a human body and a snake's tail, groped and put his hand on Li Qi's head, but he couldn't speak for a long time.
At that moment, it was Li Qixian who cried, it turned out that he was still the little ghost of the year, he was still the old ghost of the year, and he had never changed, because he had always been the father in his mind.
"......" I really want to call him, this is also what the night hopes to look forward to, but I don't know why, when the words come to her mouth, the passive Li Qi can't open her mouth, she looks at the night in a daze for a long, long time, and suddenly remembers the young old ghost in her memory, and remembers that she seems to have not fallen into his arms for a long time, but time has changed, and this young father is now gone.
At that moment, Li Qi felt as if she had lost something, or she had a feeling that she was going to lose something, she inexplicably shivered, glanced at the night hesitantly, and an impulse suddenly surged in her heart, which made Li Qi hug the night beside her tightly, she was afraid that she would disappear after the night sacrifice, and she would lose the person in front of her, and she would lose the most precious thing she was now-
"Old ghost, I don't want to go anywhere, I'm afraid, I don't want to care about anything, I don't go to the Night Festival, I just want to stay by your side." Li Qi said coquettishly.
is still such a small figure, but Li Qi, who is hugging himself, is no longer the shell that once seemed to be his own body, at that moment, the night was moved and heartbroken, he put his hand on Li Qi's head, rubbing it up and down, remembering that when she was so small, she always unconsciously caressed the child in front of her, and the night wanted time to stop like this, never pass, never let her leave him again, so that he could love her again for one more moment-
"Fool, you won't be able to go back to your original self without the Night Festival." Night said lovingly.
Seeing that Ye also supported himself, Li Qi finally mustered up the courage and said, "So if I really succeed, I will ask them to change the name of my biological father in the book of life and death to yours." ”
The night was stunned for a moment, thinking in my heart what a ridiculous wish this was, so what if I changed it? In the eyes of the night, Li Qi will always be his favorite daughter, but this stubborn child will always remember this.
"In this way, I will not be a wild child, I have my father, who is the one I hope for the most, and the only one I recognize, because, if I change to someone else, I will not admit it......" Li Qi looked at the night that was moved again, and finally revealed his heart, and after finishing speaking, he secretly thought in his heart:
"When the time comes, I will call you 'Dad' in the hall."
Ye Huixin smiled, I am afraid that I will never hear this "father", I have no afterlife, and I can't let Li Qi reincarnate and be his daughter again, but there are no regrets in my heart at night. Because from now on, Li Qihui will live forever as his daughter, just like the continuation of his own life, endless, endless.
Thinking of this, Ye stretched out his hand and pulled out the scales in front of his life, he clearly saw his invisible lifeline in front of his life, and now it is disappearing as fast as day, it turns out that retribution comes so fast, and the pain of the day is now borne by himself.
Thinking of this, Ye couldn't help but feel relieved, and groped for this scale to press this scale to Li Qi's chest.
"What is this?" Li Qi looked down at the scales that disappeared in his small body, and it arched into the depths of his soul as if he had life, protecting the heart of Li Qi's soul.
"Take it with you, so that I will always be by your side to watch over you..."Ye stroked Li Qi's face and said firmly, as a father, this was the last gift he gave to his daughter.
Li Qi smiled, but how did she know that the night handed her her her own life.
That night, Li Qi fell asleep in the arms of the night, and the night turned into the shape of a snake, and the coiled body encircled Li Qi in the center, just like a long, long time ago, every night......
When he woke up the next day, Li Qi found that he had left home and came to Kong Fang's side, and at some point, he had already sent Li Qi to Kong Fang. Even though it was still the end of summer, the night of Halloween came earlier than usual, the evening sky had already darkened, the sun had a trace of weakness, under the huge sunset, the ghost shadow appeared in the twilight, ghostly floating in the terrifying and surprising air, the whispers of the ghosts around him came from the ears, sometimes cheering, sometimes crying, sometimes excited, sometimes whimpering, at this time, Li Qi felt more and more excited as the sky fell, all the blood flowed rapidly, as if to squirt out a small body, Li Qi had never been so nervous and excited, her eyes in her soul were almost red, and she couldn't wait to run through the Little Night Festival immediately to vent the excitement of her whole body. However, Kong Fang was still smoking unhurriedly at this time, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him, Li Qi walked around the room restlessly and restlessly, time was so slow that it almost stopped, until the sky was completely dark, Kong Fang put down his pipe, let out a long breath of light, and said, "It seems that you are ready." Li Qi nodded cautiously and did not speak. Kong Fang smiled slightly, and took a long breath of cigarette incense, but this time the light smoke actually came out of the round mouth of the pipe, and it was entangled like a cloud, Kong Fang's smoke blew more and more, and after a while, the room was full of clouds and smoke, and Li Qi seemed to be deep in a dream, and his spirit was in a trance.
