Chapter Forty-Eight: The Crack in the Seal
Some people have rough skin and thick meat, dozens of whips, and they sleep on their stomachs like they are all right. Except, of course, the scars on the skin and flesh on the body. But it doesn't affect Jingchen to do nothing in bed, and now he is holding a mirror to fix his hair.
Crimson is naturally glad that the master is fine, but the back injury will take a few days to heal. Looking at Jingchen's appearance that he was injured and didn't care about himself, he suddenly felt angry in his heart.
"Childe, can you take a good rest? It's all hurt like this, can't you stop for a while? ”
Crimson complained, for so many years, sometimes he didn't feel like he was Jingchen's subordinate. I feel that I am a nanny, this child is still very naughty and disobedient, but he is willing to suffer this crime.
Jingchen felt that even if he was covered with scars, he couldn't lose his beautiful face.
"Crimson, don't be busy, it's not the first time I've been beaten, and you're not used to it! In a few days, I'll take you out to play. ”
After Jingchen said this, Crimson didn't have time to refute. On Jingchen's scarred back, a book flew out of nowhere. As soon as the book touched Jingchen's skin, someone jumped like crazy.
"Ahh Who am I going to!? My delicate back~"
Bai Gao walked into the room with an impermanent face, picked up the book that was shaken off by Jingchen, and gave it to Jingchen.
"If you're really fine, read more books, and don't make your dad uncomfortable all day long."
Jingchen pushed Bai Gao's hand away with a good face, and in Jingchen's eyes, his father was not used to looking at himself.
"Go away! Your dad isn't much better! You still read the book yourself, my inner book can't be taught, master. I don't want to be like you, I read too many books, only my brain can move, and my face is like ashes. ”
Bai Gao shook his head helplessly, and took out a small bottle and jar from his waist. gave Crimson to the side: "Find time for your master's use, recover faster." And there will be no scars! ”
Crimson was stunned for a moment, but took it politely, Jingchen didn't like Bai Gao's gift without leaving a scar.
"Whoever wants you to send it, the little cutie will worry about it for me. Hey, seriously. Why hasn't the cutie come to see me yet? You're here, you shouldn't be! Am I not miserable enough!? ”
Bai Gao sighed, but he didn't speak, thinking of Lu Xiaoyun's previous appearance, it was really a little worried, and his expression gradually became nervous. Jingchen looked sideways, Bai Gao's expression made people feel worried. I couldn't help but ask:
"You are like this, is it that the little cutie went to the forbidden land, and it is already heavier than Mount Tai?"
"I'm looking fast? I just went to see her. I don't know if it's the cause of Hui Ling's revelation, but after I came back, I became very worried. And say some strange things! ”
Jingchen was suddenly in no mood to mess with Bai Gao, and was still thinking about what happened to his little cutie.
………………
Lu Xiaoyun has been since Bai Gao left. He sat there from day to night. If Elder Shi Lan hadn't come and lit a candle in Lu Xiaoyun's room, he really thought that there was no one in this room.
Elder Shi Lan saw that the room was finally much brighter, so he opened the lunch box he brought with him, which was full of things that Lu Xiaoyun had loved to eat since childhood.
"You haven't eaten all day, where can your body stand it."
Lu Xiaoyun looked at Elder Shi Lan before slowly walking to the dining table. I picked up my chopsticks, but I didn't know where to start.
I thought to myself: How long will it be possible to get along with people close to you on such a quiet day? I feel like I can't do anything but wait now.
In just one or two days, I had too many things to accept. The revelations of the Hui Spirit, the old things, and their own secrets.
But what makes Lu Xiaoyun feel that the most difficult thing to breathe is all expectations. Now I have inexplicably become all expectations, how many responsibilities and burdens I bear on my weak shoulders. Once provoked, it can never be put down.
What's more, I don't seem to have such an ability. It's like picking up chopsticks. Suddenly I felt so heavy and put it down.
Shi Lan looked at Lu Xiaoyun and felt sad in her heart. It's a bit too much to ask a child to take on this, but no one has a choice.
"I know it's hard to accept, you don't even have the right to refuse. Just like the position of the young valley master, the valley master, because you are your mother's daughter, you must take your responsibility. ”
Lu Xiaoyun shook her head, but looked at Elder Shi Lan and smiled bitterly.
"I know I'm not afraid of responsibility, even if it's a bit inexplicable. I didn't know what I was anxious about, I just felt that everything came too suddenly, and I was a little overwhelmed.
I was still very angry before, why am I a greedy host? But then I thought about it, I earned my time for more than ten years. If it weren't for Qingyun Dao Chang, where would I still be now. I just don't know how to do it! ”
Shi Lan put the vegetables in a bowl for Lu Xiaoyun, and said in her mouth:
"Why aren't we? What is the purpose of guarding this secret for so many years? In fact, we have been worried and worried for more than ten years, but we still choose to believe. It's not because we also have a good plan, it's just because we don't want you to leave and are reluctant! ”
Lu Xiaoyun looked at Elder Shi Lan, this person who loved him like a mother since he was a child, was the person who could make Lu Xiaoyun let down his guard the most. Shi Lan reached out and touched Lu Xiaoyun's little face, and said with teary eyes:
"Even if we don't save the world, we can save ourselves. We don't have to be great, I'd rather you be selfish and let yourself live. ”
