46 If there is no hope, will you regret it?
Yin Mountain, Valley of the Immortals
"Alas......"
Under the pergola outside, but the effort to drink tea, this has already heard the third sigh, the nine tails finally raised her eyelids to look at the girl across the dining table on the side, at this time she is holding her cheeks with one hand, holding a pen in the other, her eyes are dull, she looks like a delicate girl, but she has a lot of sadness that does not match her age.
Looking at her appearance, Nine-Tails couldn't help but sneer, and the girl looked at him with confusion in her eyes when she heard the voice.
Looking at each other, the Nine-Tails didn't have the heart to rest, sat up from the recliner, and said, "Want to be white?" Looking at the girl's gradually reddening ears, he smiled, and his face was full of "I know".
The girl was embarrassed by him, but she was kind by nature, and she nodded honestly, and the nine-tails looked even happier, ignoring the blush that the girl gradually climbed to her face, and pretended to be surprised and teased: "Our maiden is still a female doll, but we also know the taste of the first love." ”
Now Wu Yuan can be regarded as understanding, why Bai Ran let her stay with the Nine Tails less on weekdays, thinking that Bai Ran really understands this guy's character of not keeping the door open.
And she has a peaceful personality on weekdays, and she doesn't pay so much attention to everyone, she has never been angry or angry, but no matter how good her temper is, she is still a little girl, and now she will be embarrassed and depressed when she is pierced by this guy like this.
Therefore, as soon as the nine-tailed voice fell here, the Wuyuan over there stood up with a "rubbing" in his hand, and the brush in his hand was thrown out straight.
But with the ability of the Nine-Tails, Wu Yuan's completely weightless "sneak attack" was like a leaf falling, and his body did not move, and the pen and paper could stop at it.
Then he smiled, raised his arm and gently bent his elbow on the armrest of the recliner, revealing his hand as white as the first snow on his chin, winking at Wuyuan, and sighing at Wuyuan as if helplessly, "Eh! The beauty doesn't move her mouth, your angry and corrupt appearance is not what I taught. ”
Yes, since Bai Ran left in the past few days, the heavy responsibility of teaching Wuyuan's homework has been entrusted to the Nine Tails, although he is a little out of tune on weekdays, but his talent is indeed not inferior to Bai Ran among the others.
So Wu Yuan, who had just sprinkled the fire, didn't say anything more, took the pen that came back slowly, and held it in his hand again, but he didn't forget to pout his lips and whisper back to him, "Then don't you also want to think about grenades." ”
But who is the Nine-Taileds, as a nine-tailed fox clan, for this kind of thing, he is frank, he is even afraid of himself, and he sneered without twisting at all, unabashedly happy, "Yes, I think about it, I want to think about it very much." ……”
As he spoke, he gently turned his head away, looked at the house in the distance with silky eyes, and said slowly: "I don't know what happened to the stinky dog and the little finch now, or Bai Ran and Xue'er are reliable, at least I know that there is a letter, those two are really conscienceless things, it's really annoying......"
Wan Yuan looked at his changes, and some could understand that mood, because she didn't tell the Nine-Tails that Bai Ran hadn't sent back the news since yesterday, and she was afraid that she would think too much, so she decided to wait, but it was only a day, but she would still feel uneasy because of it, so the Nine-Tails must be even more worried.
Although they are not mediocre ordinary people, a person who cultivates close to immortals, and the other is a descendant of ancient spirit beasts, looking at this world, there is almost nothing that can hurt them, but sometimes worrying and worrying about a person has little to do with identity, status, and ability, just because this person is placed in the softest place in his heart, and the softer and more fragile he is, the easier it is to be hurt and the easier it is to pain, that's all.
In addition, Bai Ran once told her that the spirit beast that signed the contract could not have affection, nor could it have a partner, otherwise the cultivation would be scattered, and the god would be destroyed.
And the durian had already made a contract with Bai Ran when he chose to stay in the Immortal Valley, and this contract would exist as long as Bai Ran lived in this world for a day, and the two of the nine-tails and the durian were both males, which was even more difficult with the forbidden emotion.
Wan Yuan looked at him with some distress, and the ghost asked a word that surprised her.
"Nine-Tails, in the future, will you regret it?"
"Regrets?" The Nine-Tails still looked into the distance and asked back unconcernedly.
Wan Yuan put his hands on his cheeks, nodded his eyes into the distance, and added softly: "I regret staying in this immortal valley that must be very boring for you for several years, regretting guarding a lover who may not be destined to give a response, regret waiting for you, will you?" ”。
After listening to her question, Nine-Tails was a little stunned, and the originally misty eyes slowly became clear, slowed down for a moment, lowered his head with a sneer, stroked his forehead with his white hand, rubbed his forehead with his thumb and index finger respectively, and chuckled silently.
Until the sky was getting dark, the Nine-Tails still didn't answer, and Wu Yuan tacitly didn't mention it again.
However, it seems that there is a providence in the dark, but many years later, Wu Yuan got the answer from another person, and he also understood the unspeakable smile of the Nine Tails.
The rain for days made the sky over Qinghua County still glow faintly dark red in the evening, with a hint of bloody weirdness.
Twilight went out in the rain today, ignoring the strange eyes of others, and walked blindly on the street for a few hours, from the east of the city to the west of the city without stopping, and finally in front of a pharmacy, he just received the decoction and paper umbrella kindly sent by the store, and was stopped by his companions who came and brought back to the courtyard where he stayed.
The faint candle flame reflected the people in the tub through the curling water vapor, a pair of well-proportioned but calloused hands, gently picked up a handful of water, and then covered the face, the hand slowly lowered, revealing a beautiful face, the water droplets fell on the closed and slightly trembling eyelashes, and then slid down the cheeks to the corners of the lips and chin, dripping and merging into the ocean.
After a while, the water temperature gradually lost its temperature, Twilight opened her eyes, got up and wiped it roughly, stepped out of the bathtub, picked up a shirt and wrapped it in her hand, and didn't care about the wet long hair and instantly wet her back, but her eyes swept to an oil-paper umbrella leaning against the door, pursed her lips, clenched her hands into fists, and her bones turned white.
A gust of palm wind swept by, and the room was instantly pitch black, but as the personal guard of the Southern King, everything Twilight learned was trained by the Moon Emperor's dark guard leader Remnant Wind, and she and Xiqiu were given by the Moon Emperor to Yue Tianyu and Yue Cao as personal guards respectively because of their excellence, so they got rid of the unspeakable loneliness of most of the secret guards.
At this time, with her strong night vision, she came to the door with heavy but precise steps, picked up the oil-paper umbrella, opened it, and smeared the feeling of her fingertips, groping along the skeleton of the umbrella.
Suddenly, her hands paused, her body stiffened, and her fingers trembled slightly and took out the paper scroll hidden in the skeleton.
The room brought a little bit of cool tide after the early autumn rain, sitting on the edge of the bed in the twilight summer, the paper roll just now was long gone, she closed her eyes and a clear tear slipped to the corner of her lips, this day is still coming after all, she really can't turn back on the wrong road.
"Knock knock." There was a slight knock on the door.
She suddenly opened her eyes and saw that there seemed to be a long and hazy shadow outside the door, she had already guessed who it was, and then she stared in silence.
After a while, the person outside the door still stood still, and seemed to wait patiently, and after a cup of tea, as if to remind her to come back to her senses, there was another gentle knock on the door, accompanied by two light coughs.
Twilight came back to her senses, feeling dizzy, she didn't know what she was thinking, so she picked up the coat she had put on and wiped her face, and went to open the door.
Outside the door, Yue Tianyu's tall but somewhat thin body was wearing a moon-white robe and a big coat standing there, and as soon as Twilight opened the door, the whole person was shrouded in the dark shadows cast by his tall body.
She tilted her head slightly, and she could see a faint figure on the ground, as if she was being embraced by him, and her lowered eyes couldn't help but give birth to a little nostalgia.
"Are you feeling better?" Yue Tianyu didn't seem to notice her emotions, and asked softly.
"Well, it's better, His Royal Highness Lao remembered it, it's the fault of his subordinates."
Hearing this, Yue Tianyu looked at her for a moment and said, "Is Twilight going to be separated from me because of today's events?" ”
Twilight lowered her head, forced herself not to look at the eyes that were easy to make people deep, and knelt down on one knee and said: "Your Highness is too worried, Your Highness treats people kindly, but your subordinates dare not trespass, today's matter is the fault of your subordinates, please punish Your Highness." ”
Yue Tianyu glanced at the person who hung his head, and sighed softly as if he was a little helpless, "Come in with me." With that, he bypassed Twilight and entered her house.
Twilight was stunned for a moment, her face a little strange, and she looked sideways to look at the man who had already entered the room by himself and was sitting generously at her table.
"Not yet?"
After hesitating, she got up and walked over with the door, and when she sat down, the candle flame on the table ignited synchronously.
The firelight lit up the surroundings, Yue Tianyu looked around, and her eyes fell on the oil-paper umbrella leaning against the door.
Fortunately, Yue Tianyu didn't stop looking, turned his head to look at her and said: "I still remember that when Twilight came to me, I was only ten years old, and when I first met, you were still mixed in a group of boys, so except for Leng Dong and Father, no one else found out that the thorn next to them was actually a little girl." ”
Speaking of this, Yue Tianyu's expression was warm, and a faint smile appeared on her lips, which made Twilight suddenly feel that the originally cool moisture in the room was gradually being dispelled, but she understood that this warmth was not given to her now, but the little girl with simple faith in the past.
"Your Highness has been smart and thoughtful since childhood, and he was only twelve or thirteen years old at that time."
"Indeed, but even so, you can still tell at a glance from a group of children that you are the one who is different."
Twilight Summer's expression paused slightly, and her eyes lowered even more, "Your Highness knew that Twilight Xia was a daughter, and she never felt inconvenient when she left her subordinates by her side?" ”
