Chapter 34 Lack of Heart or Lack of Roots
Xia Ke raised his chin and let the uncle guess. The uncle thought about it, according to Xiao Ye's habits, he would definitely not notice the appearance of the little guest, and as for whether the little guest was frightened, he was not the kind of person who would care. The most likely reaction would be to let the little guest out.
"He wouldn't be in the way of you, would he?"
There was almost no suspicion on the uncle's face, and there was even a bit of ridicule.
Xia Ke slapped the wall hard, biting the back of his teeth, "Isn't it! You say normal people would be like this! Shouldn't you ask me if I'm okay, and then tell me very gently that it's dangerous here, and you should go out first? After Xia Ke finished speaking, he didn't forget to send Ye Ziteng a long sigh, and the uncle laughed when he heard it holding his stomach.
The uncle laughed and covered his stomach with his hands.
"So you don't like Xiao Ye because you didn't satisfy your fantasies about heroes?" The uncle finally finished speaking, and before he could take a breath, he laughed again.
Xia Ke changed from anger at the beginning to indifference now, and she really doubted that the uncle would laugh like this.
"This is just one of the points," Xia Ke did not deny the uncle's words, at the critical moment when she was almost killed, Ye Ziteng's appearance was really no different from a hero. The uncle said that Ye Ziteng did not satisfy her hero's fantasies, and he was indeed not wrong.
As far as Xia Ke is concerned, the real hero should be like the male god Liang Zhousheng. appeared at the most critical moment and took her into his arms...... It's not that Ye Ziteng thinks she's in the way!
The uncle stopped laughing and asked seriously, "Where else is there?" ”
"When I followed Sister Duan here, Yuan Li had already begun to awaken. I was unconscious, but my consciousness was still there. I heard the vice president say that if I failed to awaken, he would kill me. When she said this, Xia Ke herself didn't realize how cold her voice was.
The uncle watched Xia Ke's face suddenly change from the side, and he also restrained the playful look on his face. It seems that the little guest girl's misunderstanding of Xiao Ye is really not a big one or two points, too, with Xiao Ye's temperament, even if he is for your good, you can't feel it.
Opening his mouth, the uncle seemed to want to explain something, but he remained silent. Xia Ke watched his uncle's series of movements, and also turned his head.
Silence is like a drop of ink dripping into a calm lake, first smearing the lake, then disappearing without a trace. But Xia Ke's heart is not the lake that can purify itself, once she decides it, it is no longer an easy thing to change.
She knows what Ye Ziteng is like, he is good enough, but also cold-blooded enough. Just like her analogy, Ye Ziteng is like a person who lives on top of a refrigerator, which is light, he is obviously a person who lives on the top of Mount Everest.
He is a well-behaved person, in other words, in fact, impersonal.
Human warmth and coldness are the most artifact things in the world, and a person without human affection is cold-blooded in his bones.
As soon as he thought of this, Xia Ke couldn't help but think of what Ye Ziteng said-if you fail, I will kill you.
If she fails......
Xia Ke rubbed his arm, and a bleak and aggrieved feeling rose. Bit by bit, it invaded her bones and blood, reminding her every moment and every second. Someone will kill you because you can't make it.
If you can't succeed, you will die, and at this moment, Xia Ke finally understands the cruelty of this world.
In the previous world, the teacher told her that if you can't succeed, you can only do nothing, and you can only live at the bottom of society. Her parents told her that if you don't succeed, you will only be looked down upon, and their hard work will be in vain.
If you can't succeed, you will be looked down upon, you will be excluded from the upper social circle, you will not be able to drive a sports car, you will not be able to marry Bai Fumei, you will not be able to marry Gao Fu and handsome......
But in this world, if you don't succeed, you're going to die.
Is this world cruel or is the education she once received fake?
Xia Ke looked up at the ceiling, blinking his eyes constantly. The pure white ceiling is like her understanding of the world, like a blank sheet of paper.
Suddenly, there was a slight weight on her shoulder, Xia Ke lowered her head, and the uncle's hand was on her shoulder.
"I've seen someone who is even cold-blooded than Xiao Ye." The uncle held Xia Ke's shoulder hard, his expression was solemn like a soldier on the verge of going on an expedition, and his eyes covered by bangs reflected an undoubted light. The light was infinitely magnified, and Xia Ke was stabbed by this invisible light and didn't dare to look directly at the uncle.
"The world you used to live in was peaceful and ordinary, although there would be criminals, there would be *, but there were people in this world who maintained safety. They're cops, they're peacekeeping cops, they're even going to be a security uncle. Because of them, you live safely. ”
The uncle's deep voice became serious at this time, the person with a hippie smile in the past was gone, and his eyes were full of expectation when he looked at Xia Ke.
"What we're doing now is actually what they're doing. It's just that what we live in is this circle with Yuan Li. The Yuan Demon is powerful, but it is also terrifying. You've seen them, too, and they have the power to destroy the world, and all they think about every day is how to destroy the world. They regard human life as a mustard, and they use their Yuan Force to hurt others. ”
"Xiao Ye is very strong, he doesn't even have to go head-to-head with the enemy, within a hundred meters, he is invincible. Why should we restrict him from doing so? The uncle sighed, he looked at Xia Ke, and that look seemed to say: Good boy, you know that, don't you?
Yes, she knows, she knows it!
Xia Ke lowered his head and covered his face with his hands.
"Because he's so powerful, so powerful, he simply can't fully control himself." The pace of speech is very slow, and there is a compassionate greatness in the tone.
Xia Ke still kept her head down, she knew everything, but she couldn't accept it. Her cheeks clearly felt the roughness of her fingers, and she suddenly wondered if one day, she would also have blood on her hands.
"Didn't you ask me why Luo Li and Duan Zhen accompanied Xiao Ye on the mission? Their mission is not to fight against the Yuan Demon, but against Xiao Ye. The uncle's hand holding Xia Ke's shoulder slowly moved away, "You think Xiao Ye is going to kill you, so you hate him." Actually, he hates himself, too. He has great power, but he has to endure the torture of hurting others at any time. ”
"You don't know yet, Xiao Ye is a genius, but he lost his mother when he was very young."
The uncle suddenly mentioned Ye Ziteng's mother, and Xia Ke couldn't help but raise his head.
"His mother died while fighting against the Yuan Demon. Xiao Ye awakened his Yuan Power on that day, and most people will awaken when they become adults, but he is only so young. When I found him, he was kneeling beside his mother, and behind him, were all the primordial demons. They were on their knees, their heads pressed against the ground. ”
Speaking of the past, the uncle's face also showed a look of reminiscence. Xia Ke put away her sadness, she didn't know that Ye Ziteng would have such a sad past......
"I was really frightened, and the commander was ready to fight. But until we were about to attack, the Yuan Demon kneeling on the ground didn't react at all. I had the courage to go over and look, only to find that all the people had closed their eyes. The uncle pretended to sigh relaxedly, even after many years, when he revisited this matter, he still felt a chill down his spine.
The eight-year-old boy knelt beside his mother, who had her hands on her abdomen as if she was halfway asleep, looking calm. But behind the young man, there was a corpse kneeling on the ground.
The corpse in one place, Xia Ke was brought into the former battlefield by the uncle's words, and it seemed that there was really that scene in front of her eyes.
The scene of corpses all over the field, the scene that I have seen countless times in books, just like this, follow the uncle's thoughts in front of Xia Ke.
"I won't hate him," Xia Ke muffled her voice, she was in the original world, and her parents were both. But the summer guest in this world has only one elderly grandmother. She comforted herself and told herself, if this Xia Ke didn't have Luo Li, would he also become Ye Ziteng's cold appearance? As soon as he comforted himself in this way, Xia Ke figured it out.
Ye Ziteng has lacked maternal love since he was a child, so she doesn't care about him.
The uncle seems to understand the character of a little girl like Xia Ke very well, and she is also a beautiful little girl, and she should have a little temper.
"That's right," the uncle pretended to be very kind, and reached out to touch Xia Ke's head, "Okay, in order to celebrate you and Xiao Ye Bing's release of suspicions, let's drive to the city today and shop!" Night! City! ”
"Really!" Xia Ke jumped up at that time, and immediately couldn't care about her tortured head, "Oh, I really want to go." She didn't know if the summer guest had ever visited the night market, but she hadn't.
It's not interesting to go to the night market alone, but Lori is the only one in her circle of friends. A woman like Lori, as soon as night falls, you can only find her in the bar. Don't say it's a night market, it's good that she doesn't get taken to the bar by Lori.
"Can you eat grilled squid? Stinky tofu? Octopus balls? Lemonade? Xia Ke sang a series of things she really wanted to eat, and at the end of the day, she opened her round eyes and sold cuteness to her uncle.
She's been coveting these things for a long time, especially stinky tofu!
Uncle Flower Pants said that he was helpless, he was an elderly uncle, and it was easy to be misunderstood when he followed a little girl on the road. But why didn't this little girl care at all? Lack of heart or lack of roots?
