Chapter 246: Matters of the Heart
I plan to stabilize my strength to the best state, and then go to Leng Yan. So for most of the past two days, I've been in the secret room.
However, I don't know why, after staying here for two days, I found that something was wrong with Xiaoice, when I first came, I was quite happy, and everything here was very novel, but slowly, Xiaoice became a little melancholy.
After lunch that day, I chatted with Lu Chengying, who came to me for a while, and Lu Chengying left, and after coming back, this kid said that he was studying a new rune array, so most of the time, he was also cultivating.
"Xiaoice, what's wrong with you?" Watching Lu Chengying leave the small courtyard, I looked back at Xiaoice, who was a little sullen, and couldn't help but ask.
"No....... Nothing, Brother Tiger. Xiaoice shook his head, hung his head, and said softly.
But I felt that she had something in her heart, so I frowned, came over and hugged her: "Xiaoice, I am your family, what do you have to do, tell me okay?" You are like this, I feel uncomfortable looking at it. ”
Hearing me say this, Xiaoice's body trembled slightly, but he didn't speak, but reached out and hugged me tightly.
I took a deep breath, and after a few seconds, seeing that Xiaoice still didn't speak, I looked down, and between Xiaoice put his face in my arms, his eyes were full of crystal tears, which made people feel very distressed.
"What's wrong?" I immediately panicked and quickly helped her wipe her tears, and at the moment I had a lot of thoughts in my head, and asked in a low voice, "Do you feel uncomfortable living here?" I'll go find Lu Chengying, let's get out of here. ”
Saying that, I was about to turn around, and Xiaoice quickly pulled me: "Don't, Brother Tiger, I'm not because of this." ”
I froze there, looking at her in bewilderment.
And Xiaoice was red-eyed, his eyes were a little evasive, and he didn't dare to look at me: "I...... I just, some want to go home to see, just now Brother Tiger said family, I was very moved, I thought of my father and mother. ”
"Home?" I was stunned again, looking at her with a confused expression.
"Brother Tiger still remembers when he first took me in?" At this moment, Xiaoice sobbed softly, and said slowly in a low voice: "At that time, I said that I was from Yizhou, but in fact, ...... Actually, Xiaoice lied, I was originally from Kyoto. ”
"You're also from Kyoto?" I froze and looked at her in amazement.
"Yes, in fact, I didn't have my parents died when I was a child, my parents died a few years ago, but then in order to bury my parents, I sold myself, and it was a son who bought me at that time, and then he sold me to the Rejuvenation Building, and the Rejuvenation Building is in Yizhou." At this moment, Xiaoice didn't dare to look at me, and said in a low voice and carefully.
"Why didn't you say it then?" I asked with a frown, a little incomprehensible in my heart at the moment.
"Brother Hu, when I first met you, I was frightened by the situation at that time, and I didn't dare to talk more, so I simplified the process, just because I was afraid that you would send me back, I really didn't mean to lie to you." Xiaoice said, crying again, Chu Chu pitiful.
I sighed secretly in my heart, and immediately understood that a woman like Xiaoice, the entire Tianming Continent does not know how many, each of them can't help it, look at the faces of others, let those who are powerful dominate life, live tremblingly, without the slightest freedom.
And Xiaoice, who didn't tell me so much at that time, also regarded me as such a powerful person, and cared about her beauty, her body, and others, and didn't care at all, and wouldn't care.
Thinking of this, my heart was a little sour, so I walked over and gently wiped her tears, and said gently: "Xiaoice, I said, you are my family, my woman, there is something in my heart, you must tell me, don't hold it in your heart, you know?" ”
Xiaoice nodded, seemed to be very moved, and threw herself into my arms at once, and in an instant, wet my chest.
"You just said you want to go home and see? Do you still have anyone else in the house? Where is it? I hugged her and asked softly.
"There was a small village in the western suburbs of Kyoto, but I didn't go back after my parents died, and I heard that the village was deserted, so I ....... I thought about going to worship and visit the grave of my father and mother. At this moment, Xiaoice leaned on me and spoke in a dark tone.
"Well, why didn't you say it earlier?" Hearing this, I immediately felt a little reproachful, and then after thinking about it, I decided: "Tomorrow, let's go together, I'll accompany you." ”
"Ah, you too...... Go? Xiaoice whispered and looked up at me, his eyes full of surprise.
I was stunned, looked at her and said seriously, "What's wrong?" Can't I go? You are my woman now, worship your family, is it appropriate if I don't go? ”
Xiaoice looked at me stunned, his eyes were complicated, and finally nodded suddenly.
At this moment, perceiving Xiaoice's expression, I realized something in a trance, in the ancient customs world of Tianming Continent, when a woman marries out, she completely becomes a person of the family, and goes to her mother's house to worship, and the man's family is not obliged to go with her. So hearing me say this at this moment, Xiaoice was very shocked in his heart, and at the same time extremely moved.
This! Maybe it's the result of respect.
However, the decision was made, Xiaoice was not as excited and excited as I imagined, but a little in a trance, I think, maybe she misses her relatives too much.
Realizing this, I also sighed deeply in my heart, because I thought of Song Baima, Qin Bai, and Yang Yun and Yang Xue, and among these people, a slender and beautiful figure kept appearing in my mind.
Tang Yan!
You okay?
I muttered to myself in my heart, thinking for a moment, I let Xiaoice rest well, tomorrow we will set off, although it is only to sweep the tomb, but it is also a very important thing.
After calming Xiaoice, I went out of the small courtyard and found Lu Chengying in the front courtyard.
"Baicaotang? Where do you go and what do you do? Hearing that I was going out, Lu Chengying frowned and asked curiously.
"I'm looking for a friend, don't ask so much, tell me how to go." I don't want to tell Lu Chengying about Leng Yan, after all, Leng Yan's identity is special, he is an assassin, since he is an assassin, he naturally doesn't want his identity to be known by too many people.
"Okay." Seeing that I didn't want to say more, Lu Chengying smiled and nodded, then changed his clothes and left the Lu Mansion with me.
A few minutes later, we came to a quaint prescription door, the door was written with the word Baicaotang, the pharmacy was quite large, but there were few people inside, an old man sat on a recliner, closed his eyes and recuperated, saw me and Lu Chengying come in, did not get up to say hello, as if asleep.
Seeing this environment, Nima, a genuine pharmacy, I frowned, I couldn't have imagined that Leng Yan, an assassin, would have such a place to live.
"Do you take medicine, or do you see a doctor?" Just as Lu Chengying and I were about to walk to the front, the old man opened his eyes, stood up slowly, and asked in a slow tone.
Lu Chengying looked at me, while I, scratching my head, walked over, and whispered to the old man mysteriously, "I'm looking for Leng Yan." ”
"Leng Yan?" The old man frowned and muttered, and looked at me, "This is not the name of the herb. He seemed to understand as he spoke: "Are you looking for someone?" ”
Then before I could speak, he shook his head: "I don't have any Leng Yan here, please go back." So saying, he sat down again.
Nima, have you found the wrong place? That's right, this is Baicaotang.
Suddenly, I was a little confused, but soon I thought of something, and quickly took out the token of the swallow and handed it to the old man.
"Where did you come from?" Seeing the swallow token, the old man's eyes widened suddenly, and he almost jumped up from the rattan chair, grabbed it, and looked at me vigilantly and asked.
I was overjoyed, and knew that I had found the right place, so I quickly said, "I am here to find the owner of this thing." ”
The old man glanced at me again, his eyes narrowed, as if he wanted to say that I could see through it, at this moment, I also perceived it, and found that this old man was a mage, and his strength was at the level of Zhanzun, but I was not the slightest surprised, and those who could have a relationship with Leng Yan would not be ordinary people.
