Chapter 1: She and Him
Li Yi's location is in a small garden on the north side of the school's football field, which is rarely passed, and the main entrance of the school can be reached along a winding cobblestone path. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The path is winding, narrow and long, surrounded by many plants that are neatly and beautifully trimmed.
But few people choose to walk here, because this road takes more time than other roads wherever they go.
In the afternoon, the football field is very lively, and even if you go to the depths of the small garden, you can still hear the excitement and cheers on the football field. The sound, sunshine, and fragrance of flowers seemed to overlap at this moment, making Li Yi, who was in it, feel a little trance, although he still felt strange, but there was inexplicable excitement in his heart.
She took a deep breath, slowly closed her eyes, and walked slowly forward.
Yes, the feeling at the moment is so real, and here she stands. Although everything here is still so unfamiliar, although she still feels a little powerless in her heart, she did take this step, and she really did it.
It has been seven days since the beginning of school, and the unfamiliar environment, unfamiliar school, unfamiliar life, and unfamiliar crowd are boundless, but at this time she feels a sense of reality, the reality of being alive. Even if she stretched out her hand, all she could touch was air, she still wanted to reach out, as if she could feel more ......
Wait, what is this? There should be nothing in front of her, but the touch from her hand, she is indeed touching something. Thinking of this, Li Yi immediately opened his eyes.
She was surprised to see that her hand was now on the chest of a stranger, and she was shocked, and immediately withdrew her hand and put it behind her back.
It's just a bend in the road, it's full of vegetation, and the path is narrow to match the scenery. They happened to be walking head-on, and because she stretched out her hand, she touched the man.
"Pick-up? Lustful girl? Erotic attack? He is so short, but he is quite bold. With his eyes closed, he pounced directly, touched it with his hands, and touched it several times. Oh, I see. You want to create an unforgettable meeting scene and then start a love affair. If that's the case, now it's your turn to introduce yourself! How do you put on a lady now? See that you have such a strong fantasy and can implement it so hard. Alright, alright, although your unrealistic fantasies will never come true. But today I will give you a special reward and give you 10 seconds to briefly introduce yourself! Rejoice! Get excited! Bubble up with beauty! A slightly teasing voice said with a smile.
At this time, in front of Li Yike, there were two strange teenagers.
One looked very indifferent, with a thin body, fair skin, handsome facial features, and cold eyes, making it impossible to ignore his presence. The corners of his mouth are slightly upturned, fluffy and slightly curly black hair, his facial features are delicate, and it is this person who speaks, and he has cute tiger teeth when he laughs.
Hearing such ridicule, Li Yi was stunned for a moment, she didn't know what to say. The current situation was obviously misunderstood by these two people, and she felt a little embarrassed and a little overwhelmed.
Li Yi couldn't help but think: This is really a misunderstanding, why did she stretch out these hands at that time? She was to blame, she didn't pay attention to her surroundings at the time, and she didn't expect to meet other people here. Isn't it time to say something? What should I do? Isn't it time to explain something? Would the explanation be useful? What should I say?
Looking at this girl with a tangled and embarrassed expression, biting her lower lip slightly, Yun Jiangye felt very troublesome. It's just inexplicable, it was him who was touched, what did she do with such an expression! What a troublesome creature, boring humans! If he hadn't noticed it for a while, how could he have let her touch him. Qiu Yu too, really have enough leisure, what is there to say, thinking of this, he did not continue to stay, and walked towards the direction of the football field with a cold expression.
Seeing Yun Jiangye's departure, Qiu Yu was a little disappointed, and said to Li Yi: "You, you, you're really stupid!" It's stupid! It's rare that I give you a reward, you won't make good use of it, and all 10 seconds will be spent in silence. Why didn't you play the toughness just now! Really, hey! It seems that someone's patience has run out and is not in the mood to listen to your self-introduction. Look, it's all because of you, so there's no fun! It's boring! It's boring! After speaking, he quickly chased after Yun Jiangye.
Qiu Yu quickly caught up with Yunjiang Ye and couldn't help but say, "Ye, why did you leave like this." That girl looks pretty cute.,And it looks like it's funny.,Just to pass the time.,It's been too boring lately.,There's nothing fun to do.,You can simply cooperate! ”
Yun Jiangye glanced at Qiu Yu coldly, and said in a cold voice: "Shut up!" ”
Qiu Yu immediately closed his mouth obediently, walked beside Yun Jiangye honestly, and did not continue to say anything.
The sudden appearance of these two people and their departure immediately made Li Yi a little dazed for a while, although the embarrassment in her heart was still reminding her of what had just happened, but everything was over.
At this time, the figures of those two people were no longer visible from afar.
Li Yi thought to himself: They shouldn't have crossed paths again! The embarrassment will disappear immediately, and then forget or hide in the memory! I'm going home now, and even though I'm very resistant, this day is still here.
After about 60 minutes of travel, Li Yi returned here, officially named - Jiuju Mountain, which looks very ordinary, and is a small group of nine rolling mountain ranges.
The entire mountain is covered by lush woods and dense shrubs, leaving only a path at the entrance to get in and out.
At the entrance, there is a large wooden warning sign, which looks very quaint. On the wooden plaque is written "Private Mountains, No Entry" in several large characters, and the font is vigorous and vigorous.
After a few minutes of walking along the trail, nine different forks will appear, leading to different mountains. From here, you can faintly see that each mountain range is covered with a patchwork of ancient buildings, surrounded by thin layers of white mist. The more you look at the top of the mountain, the thicker the fog becomes, and the thick fog overlaps on top of the mountain, hiding the entire mountaintop, as if everything in the world is hidden in that thick fog.
Li also entered the fifth fork in the road, and her home was right in the middle of the mountain range.
The Li family's house is located in the middle of the trees, the walls are white, the pines and cypresses are verdant, and the most obvious is the magnificent vermilion lacquer gate, which gives people a solemn and solemn feeling.
Li Yi stood in front of the vermilion lacquer gate, her hands clenched tightly into fists. She took a hard breath and paused for a moment before finally pushing open the heavy door and stepping inside.
The surroundings are still surprisingly quiet, and there is an invisible pressure that binds Li Yi, and here she will clearly perceive her cowardice and powerlessness. She walked slowly, wishing that time could pass more slowly. It would be nice if this road could go on forever and there was no end.
As soon as he walked into the main courtyard, someone immediately stepped forward and said to Li Yi respectfully: "Second Miss, the patriarch is waiting for you in the study, so that you can go to the study to see him as soon as you come back." ”
Li Yike's fingers couldn't help but clench into fists, she nodded to the visitor, and immediately walked towards the study.
When I came to the courtyard of the study, I saw a man standing at the door of the study.
As he got closer, the man's face became clear, he looked like he was in his twenties, with long eyebrows and eyes, a peaceful look in his eyes, a straight nose, thin lips with a faint crimson, and glasses on the bridge of his nose added a bit of bookish atmosphere.
This person's name is Li Buheng, a member of the Li family, with extraordinary ability, he is the assistant minister of the fifth department of the Jiuzhongmen, and his status in the Li family is extraordinary, second only to Li Shenyi, who is also the head of the Li family and the head of the fifth department.
Li Yi quickly walked in front of Li Buheng, she bit her lower lip, paused again, and then said, "Uncle Heng, I'm here." There was a hint of uneasiness and panic in his tone.
Li Buheng looked at Li Yi with soft eyes, and said in a gentle voice: "Ke'er, don't worry too much, I will accompany you in." Tell your father what you really think, what you did this time was indeed too unexpected, but you should have your own reasons, right? Explain it well, okay? After speaking, he gently patted Li Yike's shoulder, and smiled at her gently and encouragingly.
Li Yi really wants to ask Uncle Heng, is it really okay? Just say what you think, is it really okay? Will my father really listen to my explanations? Will you really understand my thoughts? However, she still didn't ask, didn't say anything, just lowered her head and bit her lip.
Her father, Li Shenyi, was a rigorous and arrogant person. For him, the Nine Gates and the Li family are very important existences. She didn't go to the academy of the Kuju Gate, but to the academy of ordinary humans. What will she face? What would her father say to her? How long has it been since her father has spoken to her? How long has it been since I seriously looked at her? How long has it been since I've asked her what she thinks?
At this moment, her heart was very uneasy, she knew that she was cowardly, and as long as she felt uneasy, the memories of the past would come to her. Even if she pretends to forget, the place that will hurt will still hurt......
"Hey, look, look. That's the useless second miss of the Li family! ”
"I heard that her spiritual power is very, very ordinary."
"It's not just ordinary, you really save face for her! She's worse than ordinary, we're all much better than her. She still has a big face to come here to class, and she doesn't feel ashamed. ”
"It's really fake, the Li family would actually give birth to such a child."
"Really, really, I heard from the younger sibling of my second aunt's sister, who works in the Li family. It is said that the second lady of the Li family is also very squeamish, usually the eldest lady is full, her temper is very eccentric, and she is particularly difficult to contact, and many people in the Li family don't like her. ”
"Cut! What's so great about her, isn't her surname Li, she has a good baby, and she is the daughter of the head of the Li family. Our nine-fold gate is looking at spiritual power, her spiritual power is so bad, sooner or later it will be a shameful life. ”
"That's it, that's it, her spiritual power is so bad, what else is there besides that surname."
"Haha! That's all she has that last name! ”
And she thought she was beautiful, so she didn't pay attention to everything. The eldest lady is full of all day, and she is expressionless all day long, pretending to ignore no one. ”
"She looks just beautiful, and the eldest lady of the Li family is beautiful. This second lady is not as delicate as the eldest lady, not as tall as the eldest lady, not as good as the eldest lady, and her spiritual power is even worse, and there is no comparison at all. ”
"Yes, yes, speaking of the eldest lady of the Li family, that is really the pride of our Nine Gates, she is just sixteen years old this year, she has such a high spiritual power, and she has recently skipped a grade, and it is said that she also participated in a special operation!"
"That's, don't you look at who it is, Li Yiming, the eldest lady of the Li family, but a genius who is rare in our Nine Sects for a thousand years. Strong spiritual power, noble birth, outstanding temperament, kindness, exquisite facial features, worthy of being the eldest lady of the Li family. ”
One of them couldn't help but complain loudly: "Hey! The only drawback is that there is such a waste sister, which is really speechless. ”
"Be quiet, the second lady of the Li family will hear it so loudly."
"I will hear her, and I will not be afraid of her! Who would be afraid of that rubbish. ”
Similar conversations, in the academy of the Nine Gates, and even in his own home, Li Yi didn't know how many times he had heard it. From the cautious whispering at the beginning, to the current carelessness and blatantness, she has gone from the pain and sadness at the beginning to the numb habit now.
She still walked past these people with a blank face, and at the age of thirteen, she already understood what the ordinariness of spiritual power represented. She has nothing to refute the words of those people, she is the shame of the Li family! Even her father is already disappointed in her! It has long ceased to accompany him to practice spiritual power, he has long ceased to teach himself personally, and he has long ceased to have hope for himself, but has wholeheartedly cultivated his sister with outstanding spiritual power.
But even if she has understood these truths, even if she has accepted this fact in her heart, even if she takes these things for granted, but in a corner of her heart, she still can't let go.
When she was five years old, she knew for the first time that her spiritual power was very ordinary, even below average. Although her parents smiled at her and said it was okay, she still saw the disappointment in her family's eyes.
Around that time, somewhere in her heart began to have some abrasions, and a little numbness. Looking at everyone's reluctant smiling faces, she knew that even if she said that she was sad and she was very careful, her family would still comfort her and say that it was okay, there was nothing. She was afraid to hear that, so she didn't say it to anyone.
She was obviously very sad, but she just gritted her teeth and clenched her fists, and said to herself: "Hold back, hold back!" But slowly, she realized that this kind of thing would be endless. If someone says to her, "It's okay!" Isn't it okay? She didn't know because no one had ever said it to her.
"Hey! Little Beanding, it's okay! ”
The sudden appearance of the sound made Li Yi stunned for a while.
