Prequel. Chapter Forty-Six: I Saved Limo
Mu Jing went to the back mountain, and he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to come back for a while, but it seemed that his mood had become a little better, and he wanted to drink some wine.
But when you think about your body, forget it.
"Don't talk to him in the future."
He and I sat under the pear tree, both with their backs to the trunk, quietly watching the moon grow brighter and brighter.
He is Limo's brother, it stands to reason that they should have a good relationship, why don't you let me talk to Limo, but I just met and said hello, what will I have to do with him.
"I know each other anyway, I can't say a word when I bump into him, I think it's good to leave Mo and others."
...
As soon as the words came out, I couldn't wait to shut my mouth.
I've been thinking about leaving the ink and leaving the ink, and he blurted out the name as soon as he said it, I quickly lowered my head, waiting for him to ask me, and glanced at it but saw that he was still looking at the sky, without the slightest surprise.
Again, I looked away and lowered my head, thinking that he was not paying attention.
But I heard him reply to me: "He is so ruthless, he is only good to you, not to others, and you are too close to him..."
Hearing the words "ruthless", I suddenly raised my head and stared blankly ahead.
The person next to him seemed to sense something, and he stopped before he finished speaking, and without making a sound, they both fell silent.
It turns out that he also knows why I talk so fast, probably because of the impression that Limo gave me, and the deepest thing was that I saved him that time, so every time I saw him, thought of him, and talked about him with others, I forgot about Lou Yifeng, the king of clouds, and all I thought of was the name Limo.
"When did you find out who he was?"
I caught a glimpse of him looking at me, as if asking me with a smile.
"Before, when I was here."
"He's coming to kill you?"
I looked at him, shook my head repeatedly, said a few words of no, and explained word for word: "It was he who was wounded, chased and killed, and fled to my house, and I saw him when I went out, so I saved him." β
"You saved him? No wonderβ" he said, looking at the sky again, lost in thought.
Why didn't I lie, what did I say I saved him, that person is Limo, everyone who has seen him has been killed by him, I know that his identity has been safe and sound for so long, it doesn't look like Limo's style at all, isn't it more to misunderstand anything now.
Why is it in front of him, he is so sincere, and he can't say a lie.
"I'll go find Mu Jing, you can rest first."
He left a word, walked forward with brisk steps, and in a moment disappeared without a trace.
No, it's obvious that he has been lying to me, and I haven't been angry with him, so why is he still angry with me, and he left without finishing his words.
Now I think about everything, and I fall asleep early.
Finally, I don't have to be haunted by nightmares, I don't have to sleep night after night, I don't have to worry about it every day.
It turns out that the heavens still favor me.
I slept very well this night, the weather is just right now, lukewarm, I woke up at dawn, but I was wrapped in a quilt and didn't want to come out, and I felt that sleeping was so comfortable for the first time.
My eyes squinted for a while, but I couldn't sleep, and the first rays of sunlight in the morning came in, which made my eyes hurt a little, and I couldn't sleep anymore, but I still didn't want to get up.
"Knock knock" suddenly heard a knock on the door.
I subconsciously tightened the quilt and wrapped myself tightly, knowing that Mu Jing would never call me when I was sleeping, I still asked, "Who?" β
"It's me."
"It's time for you to get up."
Didn't you still get angry with me yesterday and leave me, but now take the initiative to come to me, what do you mean?
"I didn't wake up, I'm sorry!"
His voice sounded again, "Xiao Yan, why do you like to lie in bed when you're so old?" β
"You go, I don't think about it now."
I don't want to think about you, I don't want to see you, and I don't want to talk to you.
Are you angry, am I a bully? I will ignore you.
"That's up to you."
I listened closely, and there was a sound of footsteps, as if I was leaving. With such a big temper, I can't say it, so I came to call me on purpose, so insincere, I just said a few words and left.
I was thinking about being angry, the door was suddenly opened with a "bang", maybe the bolt was broken, the sound was very loud, I saw that the ink clothes were slowly approaching me, and I couldn't help but scold him in my heart, I haven't seen him for a few years, I became so irritable, yesterday I was obviously angry for no reason, and actually smashed my door!
He slowly sat down on the edge of the bed, and I immediately covered myself under the covers, not wanting to look at him.
After only a short while, he felt extremely stuffy inside, but he didn't say a word. I exhaled deeply, uncomfortably tight, and couldn't help but stick my head out.
"Where did I mess with you? Are you mad at me? Although this was like a question, his tone was extremely gentle, and in the morning, my heart couldn't help but warm up.
...
I turned my head, didn't say a word, and asked me? Isn't he himself angry? Now he asks me the other way, are you pretending to think I'm a bully?
"It's early in the morning, it's so angry?"
"Hehehe!" I looked at him and laughed dryly, and sighed, "How could I be angry with you?" You're King Chen, how dare I? β
"My Xiao Yan is still the same as before, with sharp teeth."
Seeing that I was silent, he finally said something that made me hear: "I was wrong, don't be angry." β
As soon as he said this, his heart seemed to be filled with a warm current, and he was about to melt, and he felt happy.
When I was a child, every time he me off, as long as he made a mistake, no matter how angry I was, it would disappear immediately.
"Then you go out first, I'll get up."
"Okay, I'll go and help Senior Mu cook."
As he was leaving, he closed the door.
In the past, I always thought that if one day we meet and he changes his appearance and personality, how can I get to know him better and understand him better in the fastest time, and how can I follow him so that we will be the same as before.
But now I suddenly feel that two people who love each other never have to deliberately cater to each other, love, is to love everything about him, love the most real him, he treats me, and I remember it has always been the same, he also said that he has always had me in his heart.
I finally knew why when I agreed to be with Lou Yihang at that time, why did I feel that I had to think carefully about what I said, why I felt that I didn't live like myself anymore, I never liked him, I never showed him the truest side, and I couldn't feel the so-called happiness.
So I think he's good to me, and I should give him back that good, otherwise I'll feel like I owe him that, and that's just gratitude.
Two people who really love each other, who cares about each other's efforts and returns?
After dinner in the morning, I went to the back mountain with Mu Jing.
The last time I left, I thought that I would never set foot here again in my life, but I didn't expect that in a short time, I would come back again, still with Xie Yun.
In those eight years, how many times have I come here, just like that, under the peach blossom tree, quietly waiting, day after day, year after year.
After going around and around, we are still reunited.
He told me yesterday that the legend of the Lake of Forgetfulness is true, and if you jump down and go through the baptism of the lake, you will forget everything.
If he hadn't appeared in time at that time, would I have really forgotten everything like that, would I have fallen in love with someone again when I woke up, and I wouldn't have remembered him again?
About the Forgetful Lake, I have heard Mu Jing talk about it before, Peach Blossom Village, in fact, is a very ancient place, since human memory has existed, it exists here, because it is in the deep mountains, extraordinarily elegant, beautiful scenery, there are mountains and waters, it is a paradise.
Forget the Lake and Peach Blossom Village appeared a long time ago, it is a naturally formed lake, there is no water source up and down, the water is directly from the ground, but its water has never dried up, and it has been so deep for many years.
No one remembers when the legend that it makes people forget all love, and very few people actually jump in order to forget.
Mu Jing took his wine, lay down on the tree as always, and poured the wine into his mouth in large gulps.
I remember the last time I was here, he saw me and said that I was very similar to the concubine when I was younger. Mu Jing has always pretended to be her in her heart, and she has never declared it.
He even remembered her appearance when she was young, and he never forgot it.
Concubine Huixian, she has no last resort, she has to choose to enter the palace, and Your Majesty, how can she be so fond of a woman who has fallen into the dust.
Perhaps because he was afraid that Mu Jing would feel uncomfortable, Xie Yun pulled me away and went to a lawn that he couldn't see.
Sometimes, I really feel sorry for Mu Jing. But I couldn't help him with anything.
"Yesterday, the thing I told you about the Lake of Forgetfulness is true, no matter what happens in the future, you don't want to be stupid and throw yourself into the lake."
I looked at him silently, wondering, what reason do I have to go to the lake again now, what do I need to forget?
"What I said is true." He reaffirmed his words.
"As long as you say it, I believe it."
Yes, Ling Xueyun, as long as you say it to me, I believe it, I believe you, I will believe whatever you say.
"What if, I'm lying to you."
"Then I'm willing to be deceived by you."
He reached out and gently stroked my face and smiled, "Little fool." Then he asked me, "Why do you believe me when I lied to you like that?" β
I was too tired to stand, so I sat down on the ground casually, put my hands on my legs, supported my chin, and my eyes were still only staring at him, and replied to him without hesitation: "Because, I love you." Why don't I believe it? β
He was suddenly silent like death, and he didn't make a sound for a long time, and I felt that I didn't get a response from the other party for my confession, so I smiled and my face gradually sank.
"Yi'er, I love you too."
