Chapter 56: Chen Xi's Past
Ignite.
The old man put the cigarette in his mouth.
Hiss......
Take a hard breath, spit out a cloud of smoke, and feel sad.
He didn't seem to notice anyone approaching.
"Dean Gan?"
"Hey, ah!" Old man Gan shook violently, subconsciously hid the cigarette behind him, coughed twice, and looked back at Xu Zhifeng, "Oh, you've arrived." What about the freshmen?"
His tone was deep and extraordinary, and he instantly regained his masterly demeanor.
Xu Zhifeng pretended not to see him smoking in a melancholy manner, "The freshmen are still behind, I heard that Chen Xi's condition is not very good, so I rushed over alone to take a look." By the way, Dean Gan, where should the orphanage go?"
Gandev held out his left hand, which was not holding a cigarette, and pointed the way, "Over there." ”
"Thank you, Dean Kim. ”
"Wait a minute. I heard that you killed Qin Siyuan and Shen Yicun?"
Xu Zhifeng stopped, "Yes." ”
"Reason. ”
The two men proposed to divide the troops. But on the way back, Tang Xiaoyun and I encountered at least three sets of lime rats. The first two dials, the second dial three, the third dial two, and the second dial appear almost at the same time. I also found an agile mystic hiding in the shadows, and I threw out the gun-shaped element you gave me, and stabbed him in the leg. Qin Siyuan had an injury on his thigh. Is this a good reason?"
"Adequately. Well done you. Go and see Chen Xi. ”
Xu Zhifeng is really gone.
The two did not say anything about Hu Dingxing, because there was no need for this for the time being.
When Xu Zhifeng's figure appeared outside the collapsed courtyard wall of the orphanage, Chen Xi was squatting there staring at a large pile of relics on the ground.
There were no bodies, not a single one.
She hung her head and wiped her face with her hands from time to time, her shoulders swaying.
Xu Zhifeng gradually approached her back, but did not speak, and at the same time, he also signaled Han Xiaoya, who was trying to get close to her, not to disturb him.
The big-breasted sister had no choice but to retreat.
After waiting for a long time, Chen Xi's shoulders finally stopped twitching, and he stood up and turned around to see Xu Zhifeng who was close at hand.
Maybe it was because she had been squatting for too long, her feet were numb, or maybe she didn't have the strength in her body, so she was so weak that she almost sat on the ground.
Xu Zhifeng helped her up.
"You're not in the right state. ”
Xu Zhifeng is a player who is not very good at comforting people.
For children who grew up in orphanages, these are all their families.
It makes no sense for others to lose all their family members overnight, and to say anything like mourning.
Chen Xi is not the kind of person who likes to cry.
If it was as expected, she got up now, probably estimating that the new students were coming, so she left early, wanting to pretend to appear in front of everyone as if nothing had happened.
A woman who opens her mouth and closes her brother's mouth will never easily expose her vulnerability to others.
This kind of person will always habitually want to carry everything by himself.
Surrounded by him with one arm, Chen Xi was stunned for a moment, and then slowly looked up at him.
She struggled to keep her emotions in check.
She didn't expect to be bumped into by Xu Zhifeng, so she didn't prepare for it.
She pursed her lips tightly, trying her best to suppress her tear ducts.
She opened her mouth slowly, "I have heard Tang Xiaoyun say everything, you have done a good job, and you are worthy of being the man I raised." ”
The lines were perfect, but as she spit out word by word, the corners of her mouth began to deform, her voice gradually trembled, and two lines of tears came out of her eyes again.
Xu Zhifeng pressed the back of her head, asked her to put her head on his shoulder, and patted her head, "If you're sad, cry." I know it all, you don't have to hold on. ”
The sealed emotions have finally found an outlet.
She almost shouted out with a roar, "Xu Zhifeng! I have nothing! Now I really have nothing!"
And then she really started crying.
Han Xiaoya, who was leaning against the pillar outside the courtyard wall, clasped her hands on her chest and looked up at the moon.
The moment she heard the cry, the boulder that was pressing on her heart disappeared.
That's nice.
It feels good to have a man.
I'm dying of envy.
After about five or six minutes, Chen Xi broke free from Xu Zhifeng's shoulders, pressed his hands on his knees, and began to take deep breaths.
Call!
Call!
Call!
Then she raised her head sharply and looked directly at Xu Zhifeng.
Xu Zhifeng also looked at her and said slowly: "Who said you have nothing? Isn't there a man you have been raising for three years standing here?"
Chen Xi suddenly laughed and raised his fist.
Xu Zhifeng thought she was going to hammer herself, but she didn't expect her palm to fall lightly on her face.
"That's right. Alas......"
Xu Zhifeng: "You once said that birth, old age, sickness and death are commonplace, and I thought you were really as free and easy as you said, but now it seems that I don't know you." ”
Chen Xi shook his head.
"I really don't care about other people's lives or deaths. The same is true of all people in this world.
These are troubled times, and it's hard to live well.
But the more such an environment, the more destined everyone must have a 'family' that they can truly trust.
If a person is really completely alone, without his own power, he can't live.
Don't you realize?
The really powerful forces basically exist in the form of families or close-knit sects.
The less we care about other people, the more we care about our own 'family'.
We need comrades who can safely hand over their backs to each other in battle.
You will know that as long as he does not die, you will never have to worry about your back. ”
Xu Zhifeng thought for a while, "That's right." The Hou family, the Ding family, and even the Hu family. ”
Chen Xi replied in a low voice: "Well, there is also my Chen family." ”
Immediately, she shouted loudly outside the courtyard wall: "Han Xiaoya, go outside to help, I'm fine." My man is here!"
Han Xiaoya didn't want to pay attention to her at all, turned her head and left, but didn't answer.
Xu Zhifeng and the two sat down cross-legged in the corner and chatted for a long time.
Only then did Xu Zhifeng know that it was no wonder that Chen Xi announced in public that he would support him, saying that he had been providing him with foundation building liquid for the past few years, but this matter did not arouse anyone's suspicion in the academy.
There's a reason for that.
Over the years, she has really been making money to buy a lot of foundation building liquid!
Of course, she didn't give a drop of the foundation building liquid she bought to Lao Xu, but sent it to Daao Mountain Township and gave it to the children.
As a Xuanshi who walked out of the orphanage in Daao Mountain Township, she wanted to carry the hope of the rest of the lives of these nearly 1,000 orphans on her own shoulders.
This burden is so heavy that she obviously has extremely strong talent, but she can still only graduate at the E-level high-level realm.
In addition to maintaining her own basic expenses, she threw almost all the money into the orphanage.
That's why she's so poor as a genius!
She's trying hard enough.
The children did not disappoint her and made rapid progress.
She plans to take a few children from here next year to participate in the assessment of Wenxing Academy.
It's a pity that all this has become a dream.
Pointing to a metal object on the ground that had broken in half, she said.
"It's the old dean's hairpin, and she's been wearing it for as long as I can remember, and it's been almost twenty years. The old dean's surname is Chen, and all the children in the hospital who don't know their names are surnamed Chen. My surname is Chen. The dean named me Nozomi because he wanted me to bring hope to everyone. Just a little, just a little bit...... I ......"
Xu Zhifeng hugged her, "I won't say anything else that is good and obedient, but I heard that the Rat King ran away." Don't worry, we will be able to take revenge. ”
Hearing this, Chen Xi nodded heavily, "Yes! I must take revenge!"
"But ......," she said and quickly fell lonely, "impossible." You haven't seen the real form of the Rat King, so you don't know the situation. It's a complete variant, a king-level variant. As long as it doesn't die, it will definitely become an A-class alien beast, do you know why it didn't hesitate to leave when it had the advantage of strength?"
"Why?"
"Because it was promoted to a C-rank alien beast on the spot. It is impossible for a normal lime rat to break through the D-level moat, but the rat king did it, so it is indeed a king-level qualification. ”
"Ugh. ”
Xu Zhifeng thought about the current situation of the two of them, and changed his words: "Otherwise, I'll help you take revenge, and it's the same." ”
"No! I have to come myself!"
"Uh......"
Chen Xi suddenly turned Xu Zhifeng's face and stared at him.
"Three folds! Any position! I accept this condition! I just need to reach the C rank before the rat king becomes a B rank, and I can kill it!"
Xu Zhifeng almost agreed, but he thought of the current production capacity that was stretched thin for his own use, so he hesitated for a short time and didn't open it.
"Four folds! All postures! I will try my best to earn money! I will use all means! Brother, I will never treat you a penny! A beautiful female Xuanshi like me ...... in a green building in a big city"
Xu Zhifeng suddenly roared, "Shut up for me!"
He suddenly became very angry, "What are you all thinking? Why is Tang Tiantian like this, Ma Yuebao is like this! You are like this! Han Xiaoya is like this! You women are ......."
Chen Xi suddenly interrupted him, "Yes, this is the advantage of our women." In this world, we are born with an advantage over men. Only by giving full play to all one's advantages at all costs can one live a better life and do everything one wants to do in this world! Do you think that men are not like this? Don't you know what a sea of people was when Empress Feng summoned the world to choose the first face?
Xu Zhifeng was silent.
At this moment, he understood the truth again.
I've been in this world for three years, but I still don't seem out of place here.
It's because some of his key ideas are ingrained and haven't kept up with the world.
In his previous life, he was not a man who guarded himself like jade, and even lived a rather coquettish life.
But he still can't accept the emotional outlook of this world in his bones.
This is a big reason why his sense of isolation lingers.
If this is always the case, I am afraid that I will be trapped in my love life.
In the words of a supreme mystician, that is the instability of the Dao heart and the limited achievements.
He decided to take this step.
"Okay, free, all poses!"
Chen Xi was overjoyed, "What! free! really?"
Xu Zhifeng continued: "But I have an additional condition. ”
"You speak. ”
"I don't know what other men think, and I don't care about these things. You call me selfish, or whatever, you can't do anything that makes me unhappy. So, from now on, you can only be mine. Even if one day you become stronger, you no longer need me to support you. We can separate, but the rule won't change. Otherwise......"
"How else?"
"I'll kill you. ”
Chen Xi took a deep breath, "Deal!"
