Chapter 63: Knock Knock
bordering the country.
Li Ransheng, the helmsman of the Guangyi Society, returned to his room, collapsed on the bed, put his forearm on his eyes, and was quiet for a long time.
The limbs are slightly numb, and the slightest coolness penetrates into the soles of the feet.
There was darkness in front of me, and slowly, a little bit of dusk widened, revealing the whole dim sky.
Plagues and droughts were enough to crush the people who depended on the heavens for food.
The bark of the elm tree had almost been eaten, and many people with strange diseases were lying on the unsheltered ground, black and white impermanent steps shuttling around them, hesitating which soul they had struggled with all their lives first.
"God......
The pupils relaxed, the black and white eyes were unremarkably exposed to the air, the lips were chapped and pale with a slit open, and a mouthful of yellow teeth were arranged irregularly.
After the stage of competing for food has passed, those who survive natural selection have to cut open the bodies of their own kind with knives, but only slightly extend their lifespan, and after a few days they will start to get sick.
A man dressed in gray roams the devastated villages and towns with a medicine box, occasionally giving a glimmer of life to patients and feeding them a few herbs to prolong their lives.
The utterly different vitality seemed to him to be out of place here.
Suddenly, someone grabbed the ankle of the man in gray, and he looked down and saw that it was a child.
The man in gray squatted down, put one arm around the boy, and asked, "What's wrong?" "I don't have a lot of weight on my hands.
The boy was dirty: "Sister, sick ......"
"Is that the room?" The man in gray directed the boy to look at the hut not far away, and the boy nodded forcefully.
Bypassing the human body lying on the ground, the man in gray entered the hut with him, and a faint stench came.
The man in gray no longer looked inside, the black mole in the corner of his eye added to the bewitchment, and said indifferently: "Child, you are sick." ”
The boy's eyes were hollow.
"She's dead."
In one sentence, the death sentence was imposed.
Yang Ruilin let go of the boy, the boy grew up quickly, and the grown boy quickly walked to the bed.
Chi Ran cried, he stretched out his scarred hands and caressed his sister's withered cheeks.
My sister's thin and pitiful face changed in the shaking, becoming a familiar and unfamiliar appearance.
Wheat-colored skin, straight eyebrows, short eyelashes that no longer tremble, a slightly chubby little nose that doesn't breathe, and a mouth that always makes people feel unhappy......
"Apple?"
Tears dripped down the girl's left eye and turned bright red.
Chi Ran was swept away by great fear: "Don't scare your brother......"
Master...... "Save Apple!"
As if touched by the word "Master", Yang Ruilin stretched out his hand, and the shadow of his hand stretched all over the room, crawling up her cheeks, gradually covering the shriveled body of the little girl.
Chi Ran opened his mouth and wanted to scream, but he couldn't make a sound as if he was stuck in his throat.
The corpses and the beds melted into the darkness, except for a pure bright red stickiness that refused to dissolve into a part of the ink.
Yang Ruilin looked up, as if admiring the night scene with no starlight.
The colorful little fruits fall one by one and gather into the sea.
This rich color stung Chi Ran's eyes, and he was a little flustered, and inadvertently, a few small fruits slid into his throat with a strange fragrance.
"You're dead too."
The gentle man's voice was slowly hypnotic, eroding Chi Ran's consciousness in wisps.
In an instant, it seemed that thousands of words "she is dead" and "you are also dead" surrounded Chi Ran, destroying his eardrums little by little, running into his head and jumping up and down, and then banging into the skull, shattering the Tianling Gai!
The world was dark, and the handsome man was shrouded in a warm light, and his picturesque eyebrows and eyes were always watching the boy being overwhelmed by the chaos, and his eyes were not shocked.
……
Li Ran opened his eyes suddenly, a hot tear slipped down the corner of his eye, and he looked closely, and his sleeves were already wet.
He's too weak.

Following in the footsteps of Yan Danren every day, Chi Apple gradually realized that she was nominally a maid and had to serve tea and pour water, but in fact she only needed to follow Yan Danren and light a fire to keep warm when necessary.
"Tut-tut," Yan Danren often sighed, "It's really a match to ask you to be a maid, how long can you last like this?" ”
Although his second prince is not short of fire things at all.
Chi Apple was holding a fireball in her hand and was about to light the stove, when she heard this, she was stunned for a moment and replied, "I don't know." ”
In the face of Yan Danren, Chi Apple felt embarrassed and had to be respected.
You kill me and I kill you, how can you be in the same room so peacefully?
"Oh, that's good, today's charcoal is also saved, you can try to last like this for as long as you want." Yan Danren tugged at the ears of the snow fox catkins.
Chi Apple was stunned.
Yan Dan people are too lazy to say a word.
After holding on for half an hour, the apple turned off late.
Yan Danren, who was dealing with official business, noticed the frustration that Chi Apple wanted to re-burn but couldn't do anything about it, and instead asked Chi Apple to rest in a comforting tone: "Okay, let's take a break, it's the first time I've seen you as a wasteful Fire Elemental God." ”
Small flames burst out.
Yan Danren was satisfied and picked up a picture album with unsightly contents.
The small flame was bubbling and extinguishing again, and Yan Danren was just about to comfort and comfort him again, when he heard Chi Apple ask, "Have you seen other fire gods?" ”
"Nope." His Royal Highness the Second Prince pretended not to know the national teacher Le Qusen.
"That ......"
"Your Highness."
"Your Highness, ......"
"Alright, quiet." Yan Dan people concentrate on reading.
The words of "......" were stuck in his throat.
Sometimes Li Ransheng, who had been promoted to helmsman, would come to Yan Danren for advice, but no matter how long Chi Apple stared at Li Ransheng's side face, he would not respond.
"Your Highness, the problems that will arise in Guangyi at present are roughly ......" Li Ransheng, the helmsman of the Guangyi Society, looked at him with a look and did business.
Chi Apple was a little sad.
My brother seems to have changed into a different person.
"Wait a minute, Chi Apple will go back first."
Li Ransheng did not move.
Chi Apple left.
The village was mostly filled with soldiers, and it almost became a camp.
Since Chi Apple is now the maid personally ordered by His Royal Highness the Second Prince-the original personal maid seems to have evaporated from the world, so as long as she doesn't eavesdrop on the meeting or escape, she can basically go anywhere.
In addition, the second prince Yan Danren was responsible for reconciling the contradictions of other countries, but he did not move an inch to the border of the border, but only participated in many meetings every day and studied various documents.
A relatively stable life is actually good.
Despite this, Chi Apple is still very tired of today's life, she misses Aunt Qingniang, Aunt Lin, and Peihua...... Cheng III.
I don't know if Aunt Lin found the letter she wrote to her brother when she was cleaning, but don't throw it away as waste paper.
Walking to Mr. Yang's house, Chi Apple knocked three times to stop.
The number of times I saw Mr. Yang became less and less, and even if I did, the distance was far away each time.
At a glance from afar, Mr. Yang's gray clothes always look thin. But even if they were far away, Chi Apple felt that Mr. Yang was smiling at herself.
Isn't he cold?
Chi Apple will always think.
Think a lot, a lot.
Some things, even if five or six years have passed, and suddenly one day I remember, Chi Apple will think about whether what he did was right.
With Mr. Yang taking care of herself, she should take the initiative to visit.
Chi Apple knocked three more times, and this time, the door opened.
Yang Ruilin and Chi Apple looked at each other, Yang Ruilin blinked, and Yang Ruilin closed the door.
Chi Apple: "......"
Chi Apple then knocked on the door, knocking all the time.
Knock knock.
Knock knock.
Yang Ruilin, who couldn't be bothered, opened the door and said with a wink: "Don't knock on the door again." ”
Yang Ruilin Guan ...... She managed to enter the warm room.
With a deep sigh, Yang Ruilin gave Chi Apple a haircut and said, "Why are you disobedient?" ”
