Chapter 64: Night Talk
Before you know it, night falls.
A figure in a loose cloth coat sat against the wall with his right hand on his forehead, looking at the quiet scenery outside.
The evening breeze crept in through the half-hidden window, brushing its long hair that was casually scattered.
The waning moon hangs high in the sky like a light veil.
The misty moonlight falling on the young man by the window is like a thin layer of silver veil, with his shadowy figure and delicate face revealing a lonely color, giving people a sense of unreality like falling into a dream.
It is none other than Zheng Ming. After taking a comfortable hot bath before, she sternly rejected Bai Su during the dinner banquet, which made her dispel the idea of sleeping together. In the end, I finally got this single room under the knocking board of the clouds.
Bai Su didn't have any other intentions, she just regarded Zheng Ming as her younger brother, afraid that he would be lonely. After all, Zheng Ming's figure at this time, which was less than half a person's height, coupled with his delicate gender that was indistinguishable between male and female, really did not pose any threat. However, Zheng Ming, who has an adult soul, doesn't think so.
Bai Ming is fine, and Zheng Ming, who doesn't even have a gender, can't do anything substantial, but sleeping with a beautiful girl, Zheng Ming feels uncomfortable.
Finally, after the unwilling Bai Su left, Zheng Ming was able to stop the tiring performance and finally enjoy the quiet time alone.
Everyone has a deep crux in their hearts, and there will always be people who touch them. Those people tend to touch the softness buried deep in your heart, leaving you at a loss, at a loss, but also flocking to it.
Even those murderers and executioners who are full of evil have their own inner softness, and Zheng Ming is certainly no exception. And I don't know if it's lucky or unlucky, Bai Su's mother and daughter just touched this point. The kind of innocent and scheming love and heart-warming family atmosphere that Zheng Ming lacks the most.
When I was eating before, I looked at Bai Yao, who frequently served vegetables for himself, and Yun Shao, whose eyes were gentle. There was even a moment when Zheng Ming actually felt that it was good to live here. Of course, this thought was quickly covered up by the figure of Lucy in his heart, but this made Zheng Ming feel a sense of trepidation in his heart.
What the hell is wrong with you? Is there a lack of love after being stabbed? Zheng Ming thought self-deprecatingly. If only they weren't humanoid, or like the goblins. Zheng Ming would rather intrigue with those goblins who exude danger with cunning faces than face the situation in front of him that makes him helpless.
"Actually, it's not bad to live an ordinary life here. Wrong! How could I think that? I'm enjoying a peaceful life here, what about Lucy? ”
Just as it struggled with the thoughts that popped up in its mind from time to time, there was a slight noise outside the door. Facing the abnormal noise, Zheng Ming's brain spun quickly for a while, and then he said calmly.
"It's Aunt Yun Shao, right? Let's talk about something. ”
"Squeak-"
The sound of the wooden door being pushed open came, and the graceful figure of Yun Shao walked into the room. Her long, slightly damp black hair glowed in the moonlight.
She walked to the edge of the bed and sat down. It was less than two steps away from Zheng Ming, who was sitting on the ground. A faint moisture from a beautiful woman's bath came. Warm and fragrant.
Moonlight, beauty, facing the beautiful scenery in front of him, Zheng Ming's face showed a serious expression, and it gently adjusted its posture and said softly.
"I didn't expect Aunt Yun Shao to hide it so well. Your strength should be considered the best among the low-ranking races, right? ”
Zheng Ming tried to keep his voice flat, but even he didn't notice it, and there was a hint of loss in his tone.
"I can tell you're not an orc. And the energy fluctuations in your body can't be concealed at all. Of course, I believe that you have no malicious intentions, and I still have some ability to see people after I have grown a little older. ”
"Oh? So you came alone late at night, and you still exuded strong energy fluctuations, thinking that you wanted to talk to me? ”
"Yes. Just to talk. I'm confident that if I restrain my energy fluctuations, you won't be able to see my strength. Is it? ”
"Yes. I did just think of you as a normal person. ”
"If I want to attack you, why expose my strength? Seeing that your energy fluctuations should be around the strong level, wouldn't it be a better choice for me to sneak attack you as a fierce level? ”
Zheng Ming didn't delve into Yun Shao's division of energy levels, in his opinion, Yun Shao should be at level twenty-seven or eight. Of course, Zheng Ming knew what the other party said, so he was even more confused.
If she wants to embarrass herself, she just takes advantage of her not being attacked. If you don't want to embarrass yourself, isn't it good to pretend to be an ordinary person? Anyway, Zheng Ming couldn't see it, so why did he deliberately expose it?
With these doubts, Zheng Ming asked out loud: "I can understand these." So what do you want to do? Are you going to demonstrate with me? ”
"There is part of the reason for this. You've also seen that the dodder likes you very much. Don't look like she's joking, but I can tell she's serious. She really picked you up as a brother. ”
"Huh? Just find a stranger to be your brother? Even if Bai Su is really spoiled by you and doesn't know the cruelty of the world, this kind of thing can't happen, right? ”
"I can only say that you are too similar to him. The alienation of being here but being away from the world and the loneliness of being cut off from the world......"
Yun Shao smiled bitterly and did not elaborate. She just continued the previous topic and said to Zheng Ming, who was confused: "All in all. Although I don't think you are a malicious person, and I know that you did not mean to approach, I still do not want to consider matters concerning the safety of the girl based on my own feelings and judgments alone.
So here I am! One is to show how strong you are, and the other is to talk to you. That way, even if my judgment is wrong, you will have some scruples. ”
"Don't worry, I didn't want to stay here for long. Like I said before, I'm here looking for companions. Since there is no news of her here, it is natural that I will leave for Starlanding City in the near future. And I have a good impression of Bai Su, so there's no reason to hurt her. As for who I am? Where did it come from? What ethnicity is it? I don't think you care that much, do you? After all, I'm just a passerby. ”
"In that case, I'm relieved. There is no need to rush to leave, you can stay here for a few days. If there's a team from Starlanding coming in the near future, or a caravan heading to Starline, I can ask them to piggyback on you. I hope you can spend the next few days with you, and it will be considered compensation. ”
"Good. Deal. ”
Seeing that Yun was about to speak and stopped, Zheng Ming frowned slightly.
"Anything else?"
"That...... She treats you as a younger brother and will give you affection, and you will ...... with her every day."
The meaning revealed in Yun Sha's words, which made Zheng Ming frown frequently, and his heart was unhappy. However, the thought that following the caravan would save a lot of trouble, coupled with confidence in itself, it was categorically assured.
"Rest assured. I understand. These are just deals. I wouldn't really think of her as a sister. ”
After receiving Zheng Ming's assurance, Yun Shao finally breathed a sigh of relief, and a gentle smile returned to his worried face. She glanced at Zheng Ming, who was expressionless and expressing the attitude of "sending off guests", hesitated for a moment and said softly.
"I'm so sorry. Child, with such a mature mind at such a young age, has he suffered a lot, right? I don't want to break your heart like that. It's just that I'm really worried about the safety of Su'er, please forgive me. ”
"You don't have to apologize to me. You're overestimating yourself, I'm not as vulnerable as you think, and I'm not as vulnerable as you think. If nothing else does, I'd like to sleep. ”
"Alas~ Then you have a good rest. Good night. ”
Yun Shao, whose face was full of confusion, said goodnight gently and then turned around and left gently. Leaving Zheng Ming, who had a cold expression, alone.
It looked up at the bright moon hanging in the sky. By this time the thin clouds had dispersed, and the moon was as bright as water.
"Hypocrisy."
It muttered under its breath. It's just that there are some disillusioned and frustrated frustrations, some true feelings, and some hypocrisy, but even it can't say it clearly.
