Chapter 155: It's hard to put into words
Chaolu didn't dare to ask too much about them, no matter how he said it, Phantom was also the killer of the Shadow Pavilion, even if he looked like a pure and harmless child at the moment.
It can be seen that Phantom Yin likes Chenyao very much, although Chaolu is not sure what kind of liking it is, just like treating the other party as the most important person in his life, like family? Like a best friend?
She had also heard Chen Yao talk about Phantom Sound before, and knew that this child had been raised by his mother as a daughter since he was a child, but she never thought that Phantom Sound was not only dressed like a real girl, but also from the words, he knew that he was a girl deep down!
It's just that I still don't understand what happened to make his personality change so much? She felt sorry in her heart, and if she could, she would have hoped that Phantom Sound would always be like this......
Accompanying Huanyin to eat the food that Chen Yao packed and brought back before, Chaolu looked at the other party's girl-like delicate side face with some puzzlement, "You have lived here for a long time, I see that the pots and pans are also very complete, why don't you cook by yourself?" "It's a whole hour to walk from the nearest town, and it's a lot of trouble to go out to buy three meals a day~ Who knew that hearing Chaolu say this, Phantom Yin actually lowered her head a little embarrassed, and her long and curly eyelashes trembled like a small fan, "I don't know how to cook......"
Uh, what kind of trouble is this little daughter-in-law-like expression going to make?
"How about I teach you?" She tentatively said.
"Really?!"
Phantom's eyes flickered, and she shook Chaolu's hands in ecstasy.
"Of course, it's not a difficult thing~" I was a little embarrassed to be looked at by the other party's small animal-like eyes.
With that, the two of them went to the kitchen in the backyard.
Chaolu realized that not only the pots and pans, the stove, but also the rice and noodle seasonings were ready-made, she looked at Phantom Yin in disbelief and asked, "This house looks abandoned for a long time, why are there still these?" β
"I bought it back," Phantom replied hesitantly, rubbing the corners of his clothes with both hands and not daring to look at Chaolu, "I've tried it a few times before, but it didn't taste good, so the things have been left there." β
"Come on, you will help watch me do it today, and you will learn it after watching it a few more times!"
Shaking his head with a smile, he walked to the stove with Phantom Sound.
"That's right!"
She suddenly remembered that she saw a few osmanthus trees on the way, and the osmanthus soup made for Chen Yao in the inn last time tasted good, and the materials here are complete, maybe you can try to make some osmanthus cake! Anyway, Chen Yao also loves sweet~"Phantom Yin, can you go outside and pick some osmanthus flowers for me?" β
"Osmanthus?" Phantom looked up curiously.
Chaolu smiled incomprehensibly: "Okay, you can go quickly~ remember to collect more-"
Although he was very puzzled, Phantom still went out obediently, and came back with a basket full of osmanthus flowers after a short time.
"Then you have a good look!" Pull off the petals and put them in a porcelain bowl, then look back at Phantom Sound.
Phantom nodded earnestly, indicating that he would definitely watch Chaolu's demonstration intently.
In fact, Chaolu is not sure if she can make a fragrant osmanthus cake, she is a foodie, but the skill of cooking is only in the groping stage, and all kinds of cooking facilities in ancient times are relatively backward, so she really sweats!
After a busy afternoon, the fruits of labor were finally put on the table......
β¦β¦
In the evening, Chen Yao returned from the dust, and when he saw the steaming meal, he was stunned for a long time.
"You're back! Come and eatβ"
Phantom ran over happily and grabbed the arm of the black-clothed young man, and waved at him with a smile and a smile.
"That's, you guys?" Tatsuyo walked over to the table in disbelief.
The cool night breeze was mixed with a faint smell of blood, and Chaolu felt sad when he remembered the task he had heard from Phantom Yin before. So he pushed the young man's somewhat thin shoulders, "You go to the shower and change your clothes first, and then come to eat, I have already boiled the hot water......"
Without saying a word, Chen Yao turned his head and glanced deeply at Chaolu, then turned and walked to the backyard.
Sit at the table with Phantom and wait for Chenyao to have dinner together.
For some reason, looking at the scene in front of her, she actually gave birth to a warm feeling as if she was back in her own home, and after thinking too much, her nose began to be faintly sour.
"Sister, are you not feeling well?" Seeing that Chaolu had been silent for a long time and had not spoken, Phantom Yin came over quite worriedly.
"I'm fine."
Don't look away gently, she doesn't want to be seen by Phantom Sound the tears in her eyes, she can't tell anyone what is on her mind, and no one understands her sorrows.
"What's wrong......
As soon as Chen Yao entered the door, he noticed the dull atmosphere in the room, and walked over with a puzzled face.
He had just finished bathing and did not tie his hair, his long black and soft hair was casually tied on his shoulders, and the slightly moist tips of his hair were dripping with crystal droplets, showing a different kind of beauty in the flickering candlelight.
"It's not much," Chaolu quickly squeezed out a smile and stood up to serve the boy dinner, "Come here, try my sister's craftsmanship!" β
Seeing that Chaolu didn't want to say, Chen Yao didn't ask anymore, and sat down at the table with an expressionless face.
The three of them ate around the table relatively speechlessly, and the atmosphere was a little cold.
Phantom Yin looked left and right, not knowing who to talk to, and finally complained in a low voice aggrievedly, "My sister taught me to make osmanthus cake today, and no one praised me for how I did......
"It's delicious!" Chaolu hurriedly came out to play the round, "Look, the bigger ones here are all made of phantom sound~"
Chen Yao didn't speak, his face was still gloomy, and he could see that he was not in a good mood.
"Really? Am I making it delicious? Hearing Chaolu's praise, Phantom immediately raised her head with a smile.
"Of course, the first time I did it, I was nowhere near as good as you!" Asaro also turned back with a smile.
Listening to the laughter and laughter of the two there, Chen Yao hurriedly took a few bites of rice and put down the dishes and chopsticks, then stood up abruptly and grabbed Chaolu's wrist, and said coldly: "Follow me." β
"It hurts so much......"
This kid is always neither light nor heavy, this grasp made Chaolu's wrist hurt, she raised her head in a daze, not understanding what she had done to provoke the other party again.
"Chenyao, don't do this!" Phantom hurriedly came over to persuade her, "My sister is a good person......
Nonsense, of course I'm a good person!
Chao Lu glared at the young man in black angrily, what is this guy smoking?
"You don't care." Tatsuyo coldly pushed away the phantom sound, and then dragged Chaolu straight out of the room.
Phantom Yin stood by the door without saying anything, wanting to follow but not daring, so he could only watch Chaolu being dragged away by Chen Yao all the way with helpless eyes......
On late autumn nights, the chill hits.
Through the knee-deep weeds, the evening breeze of the autumn night was a little cool, and Chaolu couldn't help but sneeze - "Okay, okay~ If you have anything to say, let's say it here!" β
The boy let go of his hand and pushed Chaolu away, and she stumbled into the grass.
"What the hell are you going to do?!"
Being treated so rudely by the other party, Chaolu finally couldn't help but erupt, regardless of the frayed knees that had worn out the skin just now, gritted his teeth and got up from the ground, and walked a few steps to Chenyao.
Chen Yao, on the other hand, was completely unmoved by Chaolu's anger, still with a cold face and deep eyes.
The young man frowned, his thin lips pursed and pressed over, although the height of the thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy did not have much advantage, but he was still full of momentum and couldn't look sideways, "Who the hell are you, give you one last chance, and then don't confess and blame my subordinates for being ruthless!" "It turns out that he is still obsessed with this matter!
It's just that this kind of thing can be said casually to people through time and space? Besides, it was still unknown whether the qiΔ in front of her was real or illusory, so how could she be sure of the consequences of telling the truth to Chen Yao?
Looking at the cold light in the young man's eyes, she could only look away firmly, and after a long silence, she said lightly: "If I don't say it, you are going to kill me?" β
"You can try it......" The young man's eyes were as deep and unfathomable as the night sky, and he looked at him without any emotion.
It turned out that he wasn't joking.
For some reason, a trace of sour and unbearable taste rose inexplicably in her heart, she slowly raised her head and met the young man's cold gaze with great difficulty, "If you kill me, you will definitely regret it." β
Hearing this, Chen Yao was slightly stunned, but quickly came back to his senses, with a cold smile on the corner of his mouth, "Are you joking?" β
Closing her eyes hard, she said loudly in desperation, "Then you killβ"
ββ¦β¦β
Seeing that Chaolu didn't struggle at all, but walked a few steps closer to make himself move, Chen Yao was a little at a loss.
And after waiting for a long time to see the other party move, Chaolu opened his eyes in confusion and looked over, only to see the black-clothed young man standing opposite with an expressionless face and didn't know what he was thinking, and the long hair scattered on his shoulders was blown by the night wind, covering the delicate and alienated face that was so cold that people didn't dare to approach.
"I obviously don't know you," Chen Yao's voice was very soft, and it came with the gentle sound of the wind, "but it always seems like I've seen it somewhere, and it feels familiar......"
This time it was Chaolu's turn to be stunned, what's going on? It stands to reason that Chen Yao at this age can't have any intersection with himself at all, isn't this simply traveling through time and space?
She looked up slightly, and saw the young man's thin shoulders trembling in the wind, and his face, which was slightly pale from injury, looked like ice and snow condensed at this moment, as if it would fall apart when touched.
So he couldn't help but reach out and pat Chen Yao's shoulder......
It didn't seem to be used to contact people like this, and the young man's body that was hugged by Chaolu stiffened suddenly, and his dazed expression made people feel distressed for a while.
It can be seen that because of her appearance, Chen Yao's heart is very confused, although she is very puzzled why Chen Yao has an impression of herself at this time, but at the same time, she can't help but feel a little relieved.
So he patted the young man's back soothingly, and said softly: "I'm sorry, I can't explain YiqiΔ to you now, but one day you will understand...... So, can you trust me? β
ββ¦β¦β
Although there was still silence in her answer, she could see a familiar expression in those cold eyes.
