The wind is a little cold, I'm afraid it's almost winter. Li Ling sat by the window, listening to the sound of raindrops falling on the windowsill, ticking, dull and boring, repeating a beat repeatedly, but Li Ling listened attentively.

The wind blew lightly, and there were raindrops on Li Ling's face, she trembled all over, and couldn't help but tighten the big red clothes on her body. She is very afraid of the cold, and in such weather she usually hides in the house and relies on the TV to pass the time, instead of blowing the cold wind by the window.

Since Qian wanted to leave, she likes to sit by the window in a daze, the scenery outside the window is very monotonous, and she is not in the mood to look at it, but she just wants to look out of the window, what to see? Just hope for someone who will never come back.

……

In the rain, Zhang Yue held an umbrella and looked at the old lady by the window, remembering the illusory figure in his mind, and his last thought, "Take care of my family." ”

Zhang Yue found a car at random, combed her hair a little at the window full of water droplets, and walked into the somewhat old building in front of her. After a while, he knocked on Li Ling's door.

"You are?"

Li Ling was awakened, ran to the door in a hurry, squinted one eye in front of the cat's eyes, carefully looked at the situation outside, and was greeted by a gentle smiling face, but the squinting eyes made her a little suspicious.

Zhang Yue bent down slightly and said with a smile: "Hello, I am a friend of Mr. Qian. ”

"Mr. Qian? Lust for money? Li Ling was startled and wanted to unlock the door, but she still hesitated, thought about it and asked.

Zhang Yue nodded, trying to make her voice as gentle as possible: "Yes, Qian Desire, Mr. Qian." I was entrusted by him to find his ex-wife, Ms. Li Ling, is Miss Li at home? ”

Li Ling frowned, held back the tears rolling in her eyes, and said, "I am Li Ling, but I have never seen you, do you have any proof that you are my ex-husband's friend?" ”

Zhang Yue smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry, no, if Miss Li, you don't believe me, I won't go in." I can stand outside the door and talk to you. ”

“…… Come on in. Li Ling hesitated for a while, but finally opened the door, looking at Zhang Yue's eyes, her vigilance was also diluted by tears, and she only had a desire. Zhang Yue still kept smiling, but seeing the crystal tears, he felt that his smile was a little stiff.

Li Ling poured tea and greeted at the same time: "Feel free to sit, the hospitality is not good, please forgive me." ”

Zhang Yue took the teacup with a smile and said, "Thank you, Miss Li, you are polite." ”

"Okay, since you're Lao Qian's friend, don't mind calling me Aunt Li, Miss Li's name, see more outside! How did you and Lao Qian meet? Li Ling smiled, but the choked throat behind the laughter could not be hidden.

Zhang Yue put down the teacup, watched the mist drift away, and muttered: "Aunt Li, you don't want to ask this!" We all know that Mr. Qian disappeared after the night of the Flower of Desire, and now there are many rumors that he is dead......"

"To live to see people, to die to see corpses." Before Zhang Yue finished speaking, Li Ling interrupted. She said in a hurry, wanting to make her tone sound firmer, but the tears that flowed could not deceive others, and Zhang Yue knew that in Li Ling's heart, she was afraid that she also thought that the desire for money had left.

Zhang Yue sighed and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Qian asked me to take care of you before he died. ”

"You...... What did you say? Li Ling looked at Zhang Yue in a daze, her mouth opened and closed, and she wanted to say something, but in the end, there was only a terrible cry.

"You lie, you lie! This is not true, what proof do you have? What about corpses? Death certificate? Who the hell are you? Why lie to me and why? Why? Li Ling cried, she grabbed Zhang Yue's clothes, like a madman.

Zhang Yue did not resist and let Li Ling vent. I don't know how long it took for Li Ling to calm down a little, but the despair in her eyes was worrying. Zhang Yue said in a deep voice: "Please mourn." Also, here is a check for a million and my business card, if you need any more help, please feel free to contact me. I promised Mr. Qian that I would take care of you. ”

Li Ling covered her face, ignoring the checks and postcards, tears falling from between her fingers, crystal clear, like pearls, easily broken. Zhang Yue sighed and wanted to get up and leave, but Li Ling suddenly grabbed Zhang Yue and said coldly: "Money and postcards, please take them, I don't need them." ”

Zhang Yue frowned and said, "Forgive me, this is Mr. Qian's last wish, and I will do what I say." ”

Li Ling raised her head, and her eyes, which were already swollen from crying, had lost their color, and they were as dead and dark as night. Zhang Yue had no choice but to sit down again, but instead of taking away the money and business card, she said, "Mr. Qian said a few words before he died, and I want to tell you." ”

"Huh?"

"Mr. Qian said that he regretted it very much."

"Regrets? What do you regret? ”

"I regret not cherishing every minute and second with you, regretting not watching my children go to school, fall in love, work, and regret not having a family to eat wonton noodles together. He said that he missed the love he wanted most, but he was going crazy in pursuit of wealth, beauty, and fame. He became greedy, he became lustful, and he said he always felt that he was missing something. It wasn't until he was dying that he knew that what he lacked was the you he had discarded. Zhang Yue thought for a long time before she said slowly.

Li Ling snorted and laughed: "What are you kidding?" That old guy, where can you say such touching words? Think for yourself. ”

Zhang Yue was stunned for a moment, and the words that she had prepared were stuck in her mind, and she couldn't help but be a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, I let Aunt Li smile." However, Mr. Qian must have thought so. After all, at the last moment, he was still thinking about you! ”

Li Ling looked at the check and business card, and still shook her head: "Forget it, we can't use this money, let's keep the business card, if you don't dislike it, you are willing to talk to Aunt Li, and it would be good to chat." ”

When Zhang Yue heard this, she took back the check, leaving only the business card, and said, "Okay." Then Aunt Li, I'll accompany you today. ”

"Okay, it's just that my two children are also busy, and I'm the only one at home, but it's deserted." Li Ling said with a smile.

……

Back in Kagamiji, it was late at night. Zhang Yue took a small boat, floating on the lake, rowing for a while, feeling a little tired, he lay directly on the boat, looking at the night sky in a daze, gradually, sleepiness welled up.

Zhang Yue was about to close his eyes and simply spend the night on the boat, when he suddenly felt the hull of the ship swaying, this familiar feeling made him very helpless, but it was not as embarrassed as last time.

"Xiaoxi ......" Zhang Yue looked at the girl in front of him, with a somewhat smug look, he didn't know how many times he had seen it, but he wouldn't get tired of it.

"So late? Still not sleeping? Zhang Yue asked.

Yan Xi waved the green umbrella in his hand, pointed the tip of the umbrella at Zhang Yue's eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Are you embarrassed to talk about me?" I've been fooling around outside so late, and I haven't settled accounts with you yet! Say, which beautiful woman did you have a tryst with again? ”

Zhang Yue spread her hands: "An old lady in her sixties, does it count?" But looking at her appearance, she should have been quite beautiful when she was young. ”

“…… When did your taste become so heavy? Let me be such a young girl, you don't make an appointment, you want to go to a tryst with the old lady? Yan Xi said angrily, raising the umbrella and was about to knock it down, but was grabbed by Zhang Yue.

"Alright, let's stop the joke. I was just asked to visit a friend. What kind of tryst is nonsense? Zhang Yue said.

Yan Xi raised her eyebrows, sat down beside Zhang Yue, and said, "Okay, count you through!" Stay in the moon, get rid of demons, are you still used to it? ”

Zhang Yue thought that he could sleep well with peace of mind, but he didn't expect Yan Xi to suddenly have another question, which made him a little unable to react for a while, but when he thought about this problem carefully, he was a little confused where to start.

After thinking for a long time, Zhang Yue asked rhetorically: "When you killed Jin Toad, did you really feel very happy?" ”

Yan Xi smiled: "Otherwise? Not only survived, but also solved a big demon, the best of both worlds. Isn't this kind of thing worth rejoicing about? ”

"Even if it...... Is it in the rain of blood? ”

"Well, even in the bloody rain, killing youkai is a joyous thing, weren't you happy at that time?"

"Probably...... Have fun. ”

The two of them had nothing to say, so they fell asleep on the boat in the darkness of the night. At dawn the next day, Zhang Yue woke up early, Yan Xi was still asleep, and from time to time she could hear a few whispers "kill...... Kill ......"

Zhang Yue was frightened into a cold sweat, her hazy drowsiness disappeared, she woke up in an instant, looked at Yan Yi, and remembered the words Yan Yi said last night, and couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine. Zhang Yue muttered, "What are you killing demons for?" ”

"Huh?" Yan Yi smacked her lips, her eyelashes fluttered slightly, and her big eyes opened in Zhang Yue's somewhat panicked eyes.

"Awake?" Zhang Yue asked.

Yan Yi nodded, rubbed her eyes, and tried to sober herself up so that she could sit up from the boat, but after some struggle, she still chose to lie down. She leaned sideways, looked at Zhang Yue, and said with a smile: "Were you eavesdropping on me talking in my sleep just now?" ”

Zhang Yue nodded and said, "Hmm." ”

"What did I say?"

"You're shouting rabbit ......"

"Really?"

"Hmm."

……

Since that day, Zhang Yue has locked herself in her room and almost isolated herself from the world, except for training with her wet nurse. You can only talk to him a few words when you are training. Everyone was very strange, but they didn't deliberately poke it, they believed that Zhang Yue had the ability to solve the problem by himself, and if he needed help, Zhang Yue would not carry it alone.

One day, Zhang Yue completed the last training that his nurse had customized for him, and he came out of the dirt, and stood on his body with blood and mud, making him look like a dead corpse that had just crawled out of the ground.

The nurse sat on a piece of bluestone, waved her hand and rolled up a gust of wind, blowing the dirt off Zhang Yue's body and making him look much more pleasing to the eye.

Zhang Yue gasped, spread on the ground, and said, "Nurse, why did you want to be an alien spirit in the first place? ”

The nurse was a little surprised, but she still thought about it carefully and said, "First, this is my job, and second, I am just guarding the person I want to protect." ”

Zhang Yue no longer spoke, but looked up at the sky, and countless bamboo leaves were woven into a large net, blocking Zhang Yue's vision.
