Reluctant
"Get out of here, let's go back."
Xiang Nanxing held Nangong Qian's hand and pulled it gently, but the latter did not move. He felt the resistance in his hand, lowered his head in surprise, and unexpectedly met a pair of stubborn eyes.
"That's it?" Nangong Qian said, "Are you willing to go back with your tail between your legs like this?" ”
"What else can I do?" Xiang Nanxing smiled bitterly, "We are in this situation now. ”
His right finger bone had been broken in the fight just now, and the pain was unbearable just by moving his wrist, and the old wound left on his body was re-painful due to excessive and intense activity. Although Nangong Qian's injury was only on his head, the situation was more serious than his. Although he bandaged the wound simply, after all, there was no suture condition, and the hemostatic effect was limited, and at this time he saw that the blood began to slowly seep out from under the cloth, and the white cloth gradually dyed red.
To make matters worse, he could feel Nangong Qian's body starting to get hot, which was a more dangerous condition than bleeding.
"First of all, you and I need professional treatment right now, especially you." Xiang Nanxing said, "Although Xifeng is in a mess now, and I don't know how many hospitals and clinics can still operate normally, I am sure that if you stay here, your body will only get worse and worse, and if the wound is not sutured and vaccinated in time, it will soon be infected." ”
"And then, even if we stay, we can't really do anything. You're so injured that you can barely move around now, and I'm not much better than you, and as for foreign help, I don't have to count on a single one. He continued to analyze, "Liang Jingmo and the others should still be confronting Bai Su at the venue of the 'National Theft War', and there are many bad lucks, and self-protection is a problem." Yukihiko Wenji and the others haven't been able to keep up until now, and I think something happened to them. Looking back now, at that time, Jiang Liang and Yue Ming deliberately accelerated their speed when they walked in front, and ordered Xue Yan to slow down and break behind, just to shorten the distance between the front and rear teams, making it difficult for each other to take care of each other. Yue Ming can imitate an old architect, so it shouldn't be difficult to disguise Jiang Liang's voice, at that time, Jiang Liang, who is familiar with the terrain, may go around to the back to approach the few people in charge of the broken back, and kill them one by one silently, and then return to their original positions. ”
He sighed: "So, before entering the palace, not only did he not wait for a few people in the back team, but he also calmly accepted the situation of the attrition because of this, and did not complain at all, thinking that this situation was caused by himself." ”
"And then?"
Nangong Qian suddenly interrupted him. Her face was slightly red from fever, but her big eyes were still clear and transparent.
"I'm not asking what to do now." She said word for word, "What I want to know is, are you willing?" ”
"Willing to ......"
Xiang Nanxing was slightly stunned, and then smiled bitterly: "What is there to say about this." He is the prince of Xifeng, and the only answer to calm the chaos in this situation, his actions are the embodiment of the spirit of this country, and in the hearts of the people of Xifeng, he will even be the much-anticipated savior. In this case, how can I be a foreigner to intervene? Besides, as I said, it's beyond my capabilities. Xiaoqian, I'm really tired. ”
"So what? That's it? Nangong Qian stared at him firmly, as if she wanted to see through the sincerity under this wry smile.
After waiting for a long time, she didn't hear Xiang Nanxing's answer. The latter just nodded slowly, and then looked at her calmly, not avoiding Nangong Qian's inquiring gaze. This firm attitude is the answer he gave.
"Okay, let's go to the hospital and get treated."
Nangong Qian's words made Xiang Nanxing's heart suddenly happy, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand to pull her up and help her leave from here. However, Nangong Qian's next sentence made him instantly trance, and his hand unconsciously let go.
"But what about the others, what about them?" She said so.
"The people you saved in the hail of bullets are still in the sewers of the palace. Jiang Liang even killed the host who helped him, and he would definitely not let go of these people. We're gone, what are they going to do? ”
Xiang Nanxing pursed his lips: "I'll find a way to take them away too......"
"And the people outside the palace! Can you take them all with you too? ”
Nangong Qian's tone suddenly became high, and at the same time, she tightly grasped Xiang Nanxing's arm. She clenched so hard that her five fingernails sank deep into her flesh, and bursts of constant tingling sensation traveled along her arms to her whole body, and every pain was like the burning anger in Nangong Qian's heart.
She gritted her teeth and said fiercely: "You know in your heart what is right and what is wrong, why use those messy things as an excuse!" Didn't you say you wanted to protect everyone? Doesn't it say to protect those who suffer? If you can save one, I've heard you say that with my own ears! Xiang Nanxing, there is nothing you can do to me, but can you stand the big words you have said! ”
"I want to protect them, I've always wanted to protect them, but I also have to recognize the reality!"
Xiang Nanxing was also excited. He replied aloud, his eyes reddened, and he looked like he was about to cry at any moment.
What Nangong Qian said just hit the mood he had been hiding.
"I've done my best! In that strafing shot just now, I was still trying to find a way to save people, but even if I fought with my life, I could only do it to this extent! He exclaimed, "I know! In order to hide the truth, Jiang Liang can kill the people who loyally assist him, this kind of person is in power, the country will only go to a more extreme path, and the people here will have to pay for him sooner or later, I know all this! But tell me, what should I do now? Catch up with Jiang Liang, defeat him, force him to change his ways, swear not to attack innocent people again, and be a good emperor who is sympathetic to the people? Do you think it's possible? ”
He shook his head slowly, biting his lip, as if trying to suppress the emotions that erupted.
"You know very well that I'm weak and I can't do anything." He said bitterly, "So you follow me, help me, so that I can do all the great righteousness that I put on my lips, but in the end, I am still me, and I alone cannot do anything!" These guys from Xifeng are right, for thousands of years, only strong people can have the right to choose, I said that I can save one is one, in fact, I have admitted my incompetence, just evading, in order to cover up my powerlessness in the face of a greater goal! ”
A huge sense of remorse surged from the depths of his heart with the words of the confession, as if he had instantly drained the strength of his whole body. Xiang Nanxing knelt down and put his hands on Nangong Qian's shoulders. He couldn't hold back any longer, and let the tears that had been tense can't stop flowing.
At this moment, the man in front of Nangong Qian seemed to be back to the appearance of just coming out of the survival hut. The frustration of powerlessness, the hatred of his ugly self, and the outright grief of crying for some reason, all these emotions once again shattered the illusion created by these days, telling him that nothing had changed, and that he was still the one who would go against his original intention in order to survive.
But Nangong Qian knew that this was not the case.
"Everything you have experienced will not be in vain, they will forge a new life, but sometimes you don't even realize it."
She stretched out her hand and gently stroked Xiang Nanxing's hair, her movements were gentle, and her tone was as soft as her fingertips.
"Xiang Nanxing, I just killed someone, so I used this hand."
When she said this, she was so calm that she seemed to be talking about someone else's affairs, and she only felt her head stiffen suddenly under her palm. Xiang Nanxing seemed to be unable to figure out why she suddenly turned the topic here, and was silent for a long time before responding bluntly: "It's not your fault. If you don't kill him, I'll be the one who dies. You shot for me. ”
"For you, and for me." Nangong Qian smiled, "They are all masters, and I will definitely die if I face the two of them alone, so you rushed forward to pull the other party into your attack range to make up for the disadvantage in numbers." If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have any hope at all, so I shot and killed, not to save you, but for myself. ”
She lowered her head and looked at her hands.
"Even if doing so would break the oath I made in front of you not to kill and stain these hands with blood again, I am willing. Because I want to protect not only you, but also myself, and only then can I protect everyone at the same time, and I am willing to pay any price for this, because it is my choice. ”
She looked up, and there seemed to be stars twinkling in her eyes.
"What about you? What do you have in mind? ”
"I ...... then"
Xiang Nanxing hesitated, and just as he spoke, Nangong Qian raised his hand to cover his mouth.
"I'm asking not just what you're thinking when you rush up, but how many moments have come from the beginning to the present. Why did you choose to come to Xifeng, where there was civil strife, why did you take on the task of assassinating the client, why did you take the risk of knowingly entering the TV tower, and why were you willing to cooperate with Jiang Liang to get yourself involved! ”
"I don't want to listen to you, as long as you want. There must be the same idea behind all these choices, and you must find it, and find this thing that will not only cost you your life, but also everything else! ”
"Then, do it!"
She felt Xiang Nanxing's body tremble for a moment, and then she remained motionless like a stone statue. One minute, two minutes, and I don't know how long it was, Nangong Qian slowly removed her hand and looked at Xiang Nanxing thoughtfully.
Severe use of fierce medicine, this is the method that that person taught her, if it weren't for this, Nangong Qian would not have said all these words that had been held in her heart for a long time. She thought anxiously, waiting, until she saw the haze on Xiang Nanxing's face gradually dissipate, and saw that his eyebrows regained his strength, and a little glimmer of light lit up in his eyes again.
Then, a raging flame ignited.
He stood up, his already exhausted body as if it had been infused with a steady stream of strength.
"I just want to ask, when did you become so sharp-tongued." Xiang Nanxing said.
His expression was as if he had just unloaded a heavy burden, and the corners of Nangong Qian's mouth involuntarily turned up just by looking at him.
"I'm just going to give you back what you said when you defused the bomb in a different form." She laughed and said, "You were telling the truth then. ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, a smile that spoke louder than any words.
"I'm sorry, Xiaoqian, I have to go." He said. This look of guilt is still the same as the big boy on weekdays.
Nangong Qian smiled again, and she nodded.
"Don't worry, I won't die, I'll be here all the time waiting for you. You can do whatever you want, even if you want to fight for your life. She said word for word.
"There's only one thing you have to remember: I want you to come back alive."
