223. There is no conflict of gunpowder
I didn't choose a way to go in a hurry, but I just picked a no-man's land, but I didn't want to go to the long river that came out of the mountainside. I don't know if there is still a miasma on the river, and I wanted to go back, but my eyes couldn't help but sweep by, staring somewhere.
I sat down, and felt that something was missing, and then I got up and went around and broke a number of dry branches, and there was no fire on my body, and I couldn't light it, so I piled it up. Then I carefully recalled the scene where I had spent the night with Sheng Shiyao, and I couldn't help but feel funny when I thought about it, the atmosphere at that time could be described as ambiguous, he was sitting in the front, I was in the back, disheveled, but every word and every action reflected his concern and concern for me.
When I nestled in his arms, my body was cold, but my heart was warm, and tenderness was read in his eyes.
Gentleness, what a precious term, now I can only sit here alone and remember his tenderness to me, but Ying Ning is by his side. The corners of his mouth overflowed lightly: Ayao...... This title, which he often cared about, was replaced by Yao.
Lying back and looking at the black clouds overhead, it seems that I have never seen the sun in this valley, and there is always a dark cloud covering the top of the mountain, which must be related to the climate here. Thinking wildly in my head, I vaguely heard someone calling my name, but I didn't want to get up to respond, and it was Zhou Tong and the sixth son who would come out to find me, they should get along with Liu Yue for a while, and the estrangement that was born will be eliminated, so let me be alone here for a while.
I didn't sleep all night, and my heart trembled, my body was so deprived, even my heart felt so tired, the call in my ears gradually disappeared, I closed my eyes, and soon my consciousness was hazy. But Jue shook a god, and his consciousness returned, and he noticed something strange beside him, squinted his eyes, and saw a man sitting there.
The joy that originally poured out disappeared when the man turned around.
It's not Sheng Shiyao, it's Zhuang Yu. Their bodies and backs were already like them, and when I opened my eyes in a daze, I recognized my mistake. The black eyes looked down, it was deep, and I couldn't read the emotions inside. This perspective was too much of a loss, I sat up with my hands on the ground, and he suddenly asked, "Has the Divine Stone become one with you?" I couldn't help laughing, my eyes were full of sarcasm, "Zhuang Yu, you are trying to get the Divine Stone, but there is a saying that people are doing it, the sky is watching, and if you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself, and you will not be able to achieve your wish after all." Yes, the Divine Stone has melted into me, and your plan may be ruined. ”
Zhuang Yu is a dark person, and the brief intersection with him told me that it is better not to mess with him if I can. But at the moment, I was really depressed, and I finally found a clean place to be alone...... It can be regarded as licking the wound, he still has to come to disturb, and he still has a face similar to Sheng Shiyao, and the straight temper is all up, so he cares about three seven twenty-one.
Unexpectedly, Zhuang Yu didn't get angry, and even his expression didn't change, his dark eyes that had been staring at me moved away, fixed somewhere, and muttered a word softly. I couldn't hear it clearly, as if to say: the gears of fate have finally turned.
wanted to ask, but he dropped a sentence: "The fog is serious here, and it's not good for your health to stay here and sleep, so it's better to go back early." After finishing speaking, he got up and left, and I didn't want to raise my voice and call: "Zhuang Yu! He paused, and without looking back, waiting for my next step, I asked, "What do you mean by the gears of fate turning?" ”
After a few seconds of silence, he replied, "You heard me wrong. A black line appeared on his forehead, and the reason for refusing to answer was too far-fetched, so he thought about it, and then changed the question: "What is Jian Ningyi's status to you?" ”
Zhuang Yu turned around, glanced over, fixed, and replied: "You are you, she is her, you don't need to worry about it." ”
Rushing up in one breath and choking in his throat, staring angrily and fiercely at the figure that was walking away quickly, he meant to let me be less nosy, right? What do I do? Jian Ning lives and dies with me, I don't know where I am without her, how can I stand here safely, I will still take care of her affairs. Go back to Jian Ningyi, let her go as far away as this gloomy and hateful man, and don't hurt that man's heart for him.
was angry with Zhuang Yu, and he no longer had the mood to be sad alone, patted the grass clippings on his body and stood up, looked down at the dry firewood he had picked up before, and finally kicked away and left. When I returned to the populated area, I saw people shouting in front of the entrance of the valley village from a distance, and then many people ran from everywhere, including Zhou Tong and his six sons, as well as his grandmother.
I paused and watched in amazement as they all ran towards me, and my grandmother took the lead in asking, "Ah Xiao, where have you been?" ”
"I just rested by the river." Answer truthfully, omitting the conversation with Zhuang Yu. Liu Yue next to him asked sharply: "Many of us called you, didn't you hear it?" Turning his eyes to look at her, Ying Ning's face was slightly dazzling.
I only heard Zhou Tong say: "Everyone can't find you, thinking that the Qingwu people sneaked in from the secret passage and arrested you." Brother Yao and ...... They have all gone down the mountain to find you. His heart was dark, he didn't expect that he was just taking a nap for a while, making such a big commotion here, looking around, he didn't see Sheng Shiyao, and asked worriedly: "Hasn't he come back yet?" I saw Zhou Tong and Liuzi shaking their heads.
The grandmother beside her looked disapproving: "Ah Xiao, do you know how dangerous it is for them to go down the mountain this time?" At present, the grievances between the Yan and the Qingwu tribe have not been settled, and even the conflict has escalated, we don't know how many people in the Qingwu tribe like Ah Brown and Wuba know how much witchcraft, they ventured down the mountain to find you, and they haven't come back yet. ”
"They? Who else went down the mountain with Sheng Shiyao? As soon as I finished asking, I heard Liu Yue sneer and said, "What do you think?" Naturally, Ying Ning accompanied Brother Yao down the mountain. I was stunned, no wonder Zhou Cheng shrank back after saying half a sentence, no wonder my grandmother was so nervous, it turned out that Ying Ning also went. Looking around, everyone looked at me in disapproval, was it really my mistake?
Liuzi suddenly shouted: "Brother Yao is back!" "Follow the line of sight, it's not the direction I just walked back, it's the valley mouth of the altar, two figures are walking towards this place one after the other, the one in front is Ying Ning, and Sheng Shiyao is behind, with a protective posture.
Zhou Tong shouted in his ear: "Brother Yao, the little sister has been found." After shouting, he pushed me and said in a low voice: "Come over." I didn't move, I froze in place, staring at the familiar figure and walking towards this place, and when I got closer, my dark eyes settled on me, no joy, no anger, no uprightness, no harmony, like a slight ancient well and pond water.
"Where?" The exit was a questioning tone, but in the middle of my line of sight, there was a her.
I lowered my eyes, smiled, and said, "I didn't go anywhere, the scenery in the valley was so good, so I walked around." With a tight hand, his wrist was already clamped by his palm, and he said in a deep voice above his head: "Why don't you explain?" There was an instant wetness in his drooping eyes, and his nose was sour, so he forced back the tears, raised his eyes and looked straight at him, and asked obediently: "Explain to whom?" When will I have to report my whereabouts, and I will have no personal freedom? ”
"Little sister, aren't you just ......" As soon as Zhou Tong opened his mouth, he was stopped by Sheng Shiyao: "Zhou Tong, shut up!" ”
The cool black eyes, the eyes were like knives scraping on my face, and I glared at him stubbornly, but I refused to show a trace of timidity. I saw my figure reflected in the heavy pupils like Motuo, but the outline was shallow. Finally, he spoke, but not to me, "Let's all disperse." The confinement on his wrist was loosened, and his hand naturally drooped, and he watched the figure walk away quickly without a trace of hesitation.
The sigh came from the ear, grandma and Zhou Tong seemed to say something, but they didn't listen to it, and the crowd that finally gathered dispersed, and there was only ...... left in the empty space Me and Ying Ning. She approached me, stared at me with an indiscernible deep meaning, and half-loudly she spoke: "Cheng Xiao, after the Phoenix Nirvana is the catastrophe, are you ready?" ”
"What?" I didn't understand what she meant, but I saw her smile lightly and said slowly: "The mayfly dies in the twilight of life, and it is a flash in the pan." A person's life is but a snap of a finger relative to the eternity of all things. Goodbye, I have already left a reincarnation. ”
Is it that the ancients were so literate? I said to her bluntly, "I don't understand what you're talking about. She looked up at the thick black clouds in the sky, and said in a vague voice: "When the time comes, you will understand." ”
Staring at her departing figure, my heart was depressed, is this Zen with me? Or the timing? Walking back slowly, remembering that it was wrong for me just now, I shouldn't have been hiding alone, and I shouldn't have heard the shouting.
After a month in the valley, I became familiar with the girls of the Ji tribe, and when I walked into one of the households, I soon got an empty house to rest. was about to close the door, but found that the door was blocked by the outside, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Sheng Shiyao standing outside the door.
Without consulting me at all, he strode in, frowned at his broad back, and asked, "Is there something wrong?" He responded by slamming the door shut, then pulled me along to the plank bed. With a turn in his mind, he suddenly understood his intentions, and dragged him to stop, "Sheng Shiyao, we shouldn't be like this anymore." ”
"What shouldn't be?" He turned around and raised an eyebrow at me. I glanced at the bed behind him, and I couldn't take my eyes off it, and there was no way to sleep in his arms as if nothing had happened in my heart when I had a problem in my heart. Especially the conflict just now, which was not gunpowder, is still vivid, with cold eyes, questioning tone, and blaming eyes.
But he asked, "Where have you been?" We've searched the valley and we can't find you. ”
We? Is it referring to him and Ying Ning? I couldn't help but sneer: "Looking all over the valley? I'm right by the river in the middle of the mountain, why didn't I see anyone looking for me? ”
His complexion changed slightly, and he immediately put my hand on his pulse, and his expression was grim.
