"Lord Wu...... You say this talent...... There will be an awakening tonight, so what am I going to do? Lin Su asked again.

"Rest well...... "I may not be able to sleep again after tomorrow...... Lin Su didn't ask any more questions, just silently closed his eyes and leaned on a pillow behind him.

As night fell, the lantern in front of the carriage was gently extinguished by Aunt Ming. Hiding the carriage in the dark is the best way to avoid being attacked by unknown beasts.

Only the sound of horses' hooves echoed over the mountains and forests. The moon was ruthlessly removed from the black curtain, leaving only the wounded debris of the moon shining slightly.

Lin Su couldn't fall asleep, she felt some itching on her back, like an itch scraped by hair, she knew the itch behind her back, and she didn't pay attention to it anymore.

Lin Su took down the white hosta from his head. Hold it with both hands. Maybe there's the temperature in my mother's arms.

The heart of missing my father and mother came to my heart again, my eyes were sour, and tears were left again. After extinguishing the lantern, Wu Li couldn't see anything clearly.

He knew that Lin Su was still thinking about his parents. Wu Li's mother died in childbirth since he was born, so he couldn't understand this parting at all.

Wu Li was ostracized by his brothers everywhere when he was a child, and he didn't have a mother's child, as if he was born with a curse.

So he is no longer willing to play games with others and lock his heart in a world where only he has himself.

Until he saw the saint - Yu Shu that time. She was dressed in pure white clothes, her hair was combed with only a hairpin, and a jade pendant carved in the shape of a fan hung from her waist.

Yu Shu was surrounded by three maidservants, standing in the middle of the street, comparing with the refugees, as if one was in the sky and one in the ground.

This was the first time Wu Li had seen the Holy Maiden, and she was as gentle as people had described, and she was the flower of interpretation for the people.

Yu Shu knelt lightly beside a mother, holding the mother's hand, and as she spoke, Wu Li couldn't hear it, but she only saw the mother hugging Yu Shu and sobbing non-stop.

Yu Shu's eyes showed infinite pain, and he also hugged the mother tightly. At that time, Wu Li was ten years old, and he was still able to see.

He only felt that this holy woman was very hypocritical, and why did she pretend to be very sad when she couldn't feel what happened to that mother at all.

I don't know why he kept looking at Yu Shu. Yu Shu seemed to sense Wu Li's gaze and also looked at Wu Li.

What kind of eyes are they, Wu Li may never forget them in his life. It was like clear water flowing in her eyes, and just looking at it made me feel relieved and understood.

She gave Wu Li a faint smile back. Wu Li just stood there, completely oblivious to what he was going to do next.

Yu Shu was supported by the maidservant and slowly stood up to avoid falling down because of his sore legs caused by kneeling for too long. Then she slowly walked towards Wuli.

Wu Li also stood there like this, because Yu Shu's eyes made him feel that she really understood her heart.

A white figure came over, hugging the little Wu Li very lightly.

"You're a child of the Wu family." Yu Shu asked.

“…… Be. Wu Li came back to his senses and replied hesitantly. It was a tender hug for the first time he could remember.

Yu Shu knelt on the ground and held Wu Li's arms, so that his eyes were level with Wu Li.

"Holy Maiden, it's time to go back." A servant girl next to her reminded. Yu Shu waved his hand and motioned for the maids to step back.

"What's your name?"

"I ...... My name is Wu Li. Wu Li responded nervously.

"Wu Li, you know what? In fact, you are not alone in this world, you are lonely. Yu Shu's eyes met Wu Li again.

"I ...... I'm not alone! There are a lot of people around me! Wu Li felt as if his heart had been seen through.

Since he was a child, he was said to have killed his biological mother and was alienated from his siblings...... But he doesn't want to admit that he's lonely, which makes him feel like he's seen through.

I don't want to admit loneliness, maybe this is a kind of stubbornness of children, but it seems that many adults like to do it too.

Is it a habit that has been cultivated since childhood, or has the children learned it from adults?

"It's okay, Wu Li. I'm as lonely as you ......" Yu Shu gave Wu Li a very shallow smile.

She looked at Wu Li quietly like this. Wu Li suddenly felt that he had dressed himself

"Armor" seemed to be melted by Yu Shu's words. All his defenses were lifted, and his eyes finally revealed a kind of grievance from a child.

Yu Shu's eyes made him feel that his stubbornness was invisible. A layer of fog in front of the eyes refused to dissipate, and the accumulation of layers and layers finally turned into a tear rolling down.

"......" Yu Shu gently wiped away Wu Li's tears with a handkerchief, and then gave Wu Li a gentle hug again...... Wu Li leaned on the carriage, and recalled in his mind the old stories he had seen Yu Shu...... It was late at night, the lights were turned off, and all the emotions that had been suppressed by the hustle and bustle broke into the door like a robber and filled the brain.

Maybe that's why some people are afraid of the dark.
