Chapter 118: Sleepless
Linlang was very playful when she was young, and she was like a wild child every day, often playing with some boys. As a girl's family, Cai Wei strictly forbids her to go wild, in Cai Wei's words, girls must be gentle and demure, and they will be liked by knowledge. In the future, I can marry a good family and be liked by my in-laws.
At that time, they had not yet arrived in Luoyang City, and lived in a small village surrounded by mountains and rivers. Next door to her house lived a white-bearded grandfather, who was a very learned man. I don't usually talk much, and I look serious. Usually, his biggest hobby is to sit under the peach tree in the yard, holding a thick book, and reading it very fascinated. Whenever this happens, her mother will ask her to move a small bench, sit next to him, and listen to him read the words.
Linlang was young at that time, and she couldn't understand it, so she dozed off with her back and leaned back, her eyelids seemed to be wrapped in paste, and she couldn't break free when she opened her eyes, and saliva only flowed down the corners of her mouth. In the end, I was always woken up by my grandfather's slap, and I would educate her, saying that girls should stand and sit. When the lesson was finished, he told her to go home and sleep. As soon as she heard that she could go to sleep, she picked up her skirt and shoes and went into the house, lying on the bed on all fours and sleeping sweetly. But in the end, I will always be beaten by my mother. After the beating, she stewed a pot of fish soup, saying that she was not smart enough, and she had to make up for her brain.
She didn't settle down when she was a child, and she never took the truth of Cai Wei's teachings to heart, and at the age of seven or eight, she took advantage of her mother's inattention to play around with a few neighbors. Those boys were big, and they ran away in a smoke, leaving her to follow behind with two little short legs, chasing and chasing while shouting indiscriminately, wait for me.
Hearing my shouting, it must be Xiao Lianzi who stops to wait for her. When she catches up, Xiao Lianzi will tug at her pigtails until she squeaks and screams, and then she will laugh and stop. She pulled her sparse braids and yelled at Xiao Lianzi: "If you pull my braids again, I will say to your mother and let her spank you." Although her words are not good, she is young and has a lot of momentum. Xiao Lianzi was stunned, scratching her furry head silently.
Xiao Lianzi's house is not far from her family, and she is a year older than her. Xiaolianzi's mother and Cai Wei get along well, and they used to be female celebrities together to supplement the family. However, Xiao Lianzi's mother is not in good health, and she is sick in bed for most of the year. It is said that his father and Linlang's father both went to the border to fight, and they have not returned for many years, and no one has taken care of them.
Later, Xiao Lianzi's mother died of illness, and the situation in the village was not very good. In order to let them live a good life, Cai Wei took the two of them to Luoyang together. Because she has some savings in her hand, Cai Wei's cooking skills are also good, so she opened an inn in this city. A lonely widow with two children, settling down in this city, the sadness during this period is unimaginable to ordinary people.
Linlang can't change her naughty problem anywhere, but Xiao Lianzi has been much calmer since her mother died. Cai Wei saw that she was not young and that she was still like a girl, so she sent her to the school. She read more books, and she gradually became well-behaved, and her personality was much more restrained. Cai Wei often sighs, reading is really good, and there is poetry and books in her belly, which is true.
The thorny heart is dying, and the mother's family is laborious. The triumphant wind comes from the south, blowing the thorny salary. Mother's holiness, I have nothing to do. Now she didn't have time to repay Cai Wei's nurturing kindness, but she died tragically at the hands of thieves. Yingning only hated herself for being incompetent, and she couldn't even protect her mother, and she said that she wanted to step on the underworld and avenge her father. How ignorant, how ridiculous.
She fell into a nightmare and was reluctant to wake up. In the dream, her mother was still there, and she was still sewing new clothes for her in front of the candlelight. She sat next to her mother and read, and the book wrote: Whoever says an inch is careless, and he will be rewarded with three springs. If her mother can live, then she is willing not to wake up for the rest of her life.
Yun'er stood in front of Yingning's bed undressed, she had slept for three days and three nights since she spurted a mouthful of blood in the inn. Lang Zhong also saw it and took the medicine, but there was still no sign of sobriety. Yun'er was so worried that she was wiping her tears when Yejun came in the door.
Yun'er got up to salute, he waved his hand and asked, "How is Ning Ning today?" ”
Yun'er said in a low voice: "It's still the same, sleep quietly." ”
Yejun sat in front of her bed with a frown, stretched out two fingers and checked the pulse, the pulse was a little weird, and there seemed to be a strong true qi scurrying in her body. It stands to reason that she has been practicing the Phantom Spirit Spell for less than half a month, and she should not be able to practice such a powerful True Qi. For some reason, her spiritual power suddenly increased that day, and the ghost of the god was almost injured by her. As smart as the night king, he can't think of the trick. Could it be that it was stimulated by Cai Wei's death? He can only use his spiritual power to help her shake now, otherwise she can't control it, and her veins will be broken and she will die.
And she fell asleep like this, I don't know if it has something to do with this true qi? Yejun couldn't help but sigh, what should I do? At this time, someone outside the door announced: "Childe, Zhong Wuqi is here again." ”
Yejun's face sank, in the past three days, Zhong Wuqi has come every day. However, he was blocked by Yejun back, and it is said that Cai Wei's death was not caused by Zhong Wuqi, but in his private heart, he just didn't want Zhong Wuqi to see Yingning.
Yejun tucked the quilt for Yingning, got up slowly, and explained to Yun'er: "Haosheng takes care of Ning Ning, and if there is something, come and report it immediately." ”
After saying that, he walked out of the room, and I was standing in the middle of the courtyard. Dressed in a black robe, his face was gloomy and terrifying. He hadn't seen Ying Ning for three days, and he didn't know how she was now. She misunderstood him deeply, and he had to explain it clearly no matter what, otherwise they would not be able to get along well in the future.
Yejun walked up to him and said lightly, "I said that you can't see Yingning here with me." ”
"How is she?" I asked.
"It's fine." Yejun said expressionlessly.
"I want to see her." My tone was firm.
Yejun smiled coldly, very disdainful: "Why? ”
I suppressed the breath in my chest, and the Night Monarch did everything possible to stop him, I don't know what kind of calculation he made? Wu Qi said coldly: "I only see her once, just say a few words to her." ”
"She has fallen asleep after taking the medicine, and it is inconvenient to meet guests, so you better go back." The Night Monarch indifferently ordered the eviction.
I made up my mind to see Yingning today, how could I be sent away by his words. He took a few steps forward, only half a meter away from Yejun, "Then I'll wait here for a while, and I'll see you when she wakes up." ”
Seeing that he was so inadequate, Yejun said bluntly: "I won't let you see her, even if she wakes up, you won't be able to see her." ”
Wu Qi suddenly grabbed Yejun's sleeve, glared at his eyes, and said, "What happened to Yingning?" Why don't you let me see her? ”
Yejun's face was indifferent, and he smiled and said, "I said, she's fine." ”
My face was full of doubts, and I said in a deep voice: "She suddenly conjured up her former spiritual power that day, she is only a mortal now, and her body must not be able to bear it." You say she's fine, but I don't believe her. ”
It turned out that the key was like this, and the qi in her body was Yingning's former spiritual power. It's just that her spiritual power has not been abolished, so how can it be conjured? Yejun was a little puzzled: "Yingning's spiritual power has not been abolished, since it has been abolished, how can it be conjured out of thin air?" ”
Wu Qi hesitated for a moment, and said slowly: "It wasn't abolished, I just sealed her spiritual power." You must have practiced the Phantom Charm on her, and that day she was heartbroken and stimulated, and broke the seal. Her current body is unable to freely control those spiritual powers. ”
Yejun understood the ins and outs and had a plan in his heart. He said, "You don't have to worry about this, I'll help her solve it." ”
"I know what you're capable of, it's just that if you can let me see her today. Don't worry, I won't disturb her recuperation, just a few words and leave. She misunderstood that I had killed her mother, and if I didn't explain it clearly, she would be even more miserable. You know, I didn't kill people. I pleaded.
Yejun paused and said lightly, "I don't know what's important?" She doesn't believe you, it has nothing to do with me, and I won't explain it for you. ”
I gritted my teeth, and I didn't think that it would be better if Yejun was willing to say a word for him. After all, in this matter, apart from Shen Tu and himself, the Night Monarch has the most right to speak. It's just that he didn't expect that before he could speak, Yejun refused so simply.
Reasonable, unexpected. I don't blame him, after all, the two of them have always been incompatible, and they don't look down on each other. He said, "I don't need your help, I will clear up this misunderstanding myself, you just need to let me see her." ”
Yejun suddenly smiled: "Since you have misunderstood, this is something I can't ask for, how can I give you a chance to explain clearly?" I advise you to go back to the underworld and help the Hades well, it's more interesting for us to be enemies. ”
Wu Qi calmly said with a calm face: "Are you really so despicable? Yingning misunderstood that I killed her mother, how painful it was, don't you know? You can't bear to watch her fall into such despair and misery? How can you say you love her? ”
Yejun raised his head and laughed, and mocked and sarcastically said to Wu Qi: "I'm not worthy, are you worthy?" If it weren't for the beginning, you didn't pull her at the critical moment, how could there be Bai Yingning today? Maybe she's already in the underworld, sitting in the position of the king of Hades? ”
"Humph!" Wu Qi snorted coldly and said coldly: "At that time, you were already a prisoner, and Shen Di had all the movements of Yingning. Even if I don't capture your soldiers, someone else will do it. Ying Ning didn't have any chance of winning at that time, if I didn't stop her and rebelled with her, it didn't matter if I died, she would definitely die. I'm alive, and at least I'll be able to save her. It's all because of you, for your own selfish interests, La Yingning went into the water, and caused her how much suffering she suffered. If it weren't for you, she would still be the simple and kind Yingning Fairy now. ”
Yejun's eyes darkened, and his green eyes turned dark green. He had also hesitated to tell Ying Ning everything about Qi Wuxian, if he didn't tell her, she would live a little more comfortably. If you tell her, everything will go in an irreversible direction. It's just that he was vengeful at that time, and he had been planning alone for thousands of years, and he really wished that someone would stand by his side and fight with him. In the end, he couldn't hold back and told all his feelings to Yingning and the plate. Things went in the direction he expected, but he was too anxious, and he didn't want Shen Tu to be scheming, and since Yingning had just entered the underworld, he was ready to calculate her.
At that time, he hated himself for being stupid, he had no revenge, and he almost lost his life. Now, Yingning is not as simple as a chess piece with him, he is more like her becoming his wife. He didn't want her to be in danger, but it wasn't something he could control. The only thing he could do was to do his best to protect her. Cai Wei's death was a miscalculation on his part, and he owed her once. However, he must not promise Zhong Wu to see her, if they misunderstand and get back together, where will there be his place. In the face of love, everyone is selfish, and he is no exception.
