Chapter 34 Xiang Wu shows up to solve the mystery of death
I was so frightened last night that I didn't sleep well all night, and I remember very clearly that Xia Xia added the lamp three times, and she kept curling up on the edge of my bed, sometimes covering me with a quilt, sometimes touching my forehead, quiet as a kitten, for fear of waking me up.
This scene reminds me of when Xia Xia first came a few years ago, except that I took care of her at that time, and now she takes care of me.
I looked at her like this, Xia Xia suddenly opened her eyes and asked me vigilantly, "Sister Fei is awake?" Is there something uncomfortable? β
I shook my head: "No, I can't sleep." β
Xia Xia sat up and said, "Are you thirsty?" I'm going to get some hot water to moisten your throat. β
I grabbed her: "No need, I just slept too much during the day and slept full." Sleep, this night is enough for you. β
Xia Xia said: "It's okay, I don't like to sleep, I can jump around no matter how I toss." β
I combed her loose hair with my fingers, and although she had been on the move and sleeping in the open for a while, this beautiful hair was natural, black and smooth, and now it was as bright as silk, unlike mine, which was very rough and split ends.
I smiled and said: "Do you remember, when you were a child, you always sneaked into my room in the middle of the night, and I was startled by you several times, you know that I am the most timid, and then I saw that your little appearance is really pitiful, so I lit a lamp in the hall, so that you will not be tripped up at night, and I will not be frightened by you all the time in the dark." β
Xia Xia also smiled: "Yes, Sister Fei still remembers." β
I said, "Yes, I didn't know who it was at first, but the door of the room was inexplicably open in the middle of the night, and I was scared for several nights and couldn't sleep." I see now that you are not timid, why did you always dare not sleep alone at that time? β
Xia Xia's smile froze, showing maturity that she shouldn't have at her age: "I'm not afraid of sleeping alone, but I'm afraid of falling asleep." β
"Huh? Afraid of falling asleep? Is the bed uncomfortable? Or are you afraid of nightmares? β
Xia Xia: "I'm afraid that when I wake up, everything here will disappear, Sister Fei, you are just a dream I made up to escape from reality - I'm afraid that you are my sweet dream." β
I was stunned, my eyes were hot, I always thought she was just too timid to sleep, it turned out that she was worried about this.
Xia Xia's eyes were also red, and she said softly: "If you are really my sweet dream, then I plan to live in a dream for the rest of my life and never wake up again." β
I put my arm around her shoulder and patted her gently, "No, how can there be so many of our shortcomings in this world, we have always been there." β
Xia Xia held my hand tightly: "Sister Fei, I know that you are in a bad mood during this time, I don't know what to do to make you happy." But you promise me that you have to take good care of your body, otherwise the third brother will come back and think that I didn't take good care of you, and I will definitely pull my braids - you are my dearest person, you are a sweet dream that I don't want to wake up, you just be selfish to me, if something happens to you, my sweet dream will wake up. β
"Yes."
I never mentioned it to Xia Xia, and the doctor asserted that I would not live more than twenty-two years from my illness. I was careless, and I always thought that my illness had improved.
Xia Xia didn't know the bitterness in my heart, maybe she just wanted to divert my sorrow, and quipped: "Sister Fei, is that Shangguan brother very good-looking during the day, I have been staring at people when I see you, I think he is better looking than Shopkeeper Mo and Shopkeeper He, do you like it?" β
I should try to make the atmosphere a little better with her, and said, "What? If you like it, are you going to grab it for me? β
Xia Xia smiled with tears in her eyes: "Yes, even if your head is broken and bleeding, you have to rob it." β
I burst into tears and laughed.
The next day, guests came to the courtyard early in the morning.
The bell on the courtyard gate suddenly jingled, very crisp, as if welcoming guests.
The people outside the courtyard let out a soft "huh", coughed, cleared their throats, and asked, "Is Boss Yan here?" β
"Brother Xiang, why are you here?" Xia Xia answered the door in the courtyard.
"It's okay, I just want to come and see it. Last time I came back with Lord Shangguan to help Boss Yan back, I haven't even come to see it. What's wrong with Boss Yan? The body is still complete, right? β
Xiang Wu?
My heart trembled, and my mind came to the picture of his death with blue eyes and a bell, wasn't he dead? Can ghosts come out in the blue sky and in the daylight? As soon as I thought about it, I felt the blood and qi in my body surge, and I couldn't help but cough low.
Xia Xia responded: "I woke up for a while yesterday, and I will still fall asleepββ"
I cleared my throat, still wanting to confirm the identity of the person who came, and said, "Xia Xia, who is here?" β
Xia Xia smiled: "Sister Fei is awake?" It's Big Brother Xiang who has come to see you. β
Is it really Xiang Wu?!
Outside, Xiang Wu continued: "Boss Yan, I don't have anything to do, I just want to see how you are!" If it's not convenient, I'll come back another day! β
"It's convenient, Brother Xiang came all the way to visit the patient, no matter how inconvenient it is." I want to meet this martial artist.
Xia Xia said crisply: "Brother Xiang is too polite, and he also brought a big pheasant, Sister Fei has been making up for it for a while!" β
I put on a dress, pulled my hair, and drank a glass of water, but I choked on the gas valve, coughed up the choked water, and the white tablecloth was immediately blood-red.
"Boss Yan is okay, right?" Xiang Wu asked loudly outside.
"It's okay, it's okay, I'll come." I hid the blood spots in a tea tray, patted my face and tried to look refreshed, and walked out of the room quickly.
As soon as I went out, I met Xiang Wu's eyes, and for a moment I felt that his gaze was cold and serious, but in a blink of an eye, he was already smiling, and greeted me: "Hello Boss Yan." β
He is Xiang Wu, yes, with a black face and thick lips, his appearance is not strange, he has been hunting in the mountains for many years, he has a strong body, bright eyes, and always has a naΓ―ve spirit at first glance. I stared at him carefully, and he was generous enough to let me look at him like this.
But the more I stared at him carefully, the more I felt that he didn't look like the Xiang Wu I knew before, and the more scared I was in my heart, I felt that this Xiang Wu standing here was just wearing a human skin dress that was very similar to Xiang Wu!
Item...... Brother Xiang, long time no see. "I have a lot of jealousy.
Xiang Wu laughed, and his laughter was also very loud: "It's been a long time." When did Boss Yan be so afraid of life and be shy when he called people? β
I couldn't laugh, staring at his hands, Song Lingjian also hunted for a living, I knew that they Orion because they often have to pull the bow and arrows, there will be a cocoon between the middle finger and the index finger, Song Lingjian has, so I often get some softening oil for her to rub, although she doesn't mind having calluses on her hands, but a good girl always has to protect her hands.
There are also cocoons between this Xiang Wu's fingers......
Xiang Wu saw that I was staring at his hand, it was a little unnatural, he coughed a few times and said: "Hey, I can't hide anything from Boss Yan, I'm a rough person, how can I think of coming to visit Boss Yan again, I met Lord Shangguan on the road two days ago." Lord Shangguan said that Boss Yan was quite worried about me, and suggested that I come to let Boss Yan rest easy-what's wrong, Boss Yan? Aren't you relieved to see me now? To be honest, I want to know what's going on, but I can't ask you directly. β
"Shangguan - Lord Shangguan asked you to come?" I wondered.
"Yes, it seems to say that the girl dreamed of me and was afraid that the girl would worry, so let me let Boss Yan settle down - what happened to Boss Yan when he dreamed of me?"
I was embarrassed to say that I dreamed that he was dead, so I had to say, "No, it's nothing." Lord Shangguan has a heart. β
Xia Xia said roundly: "It's okay, it's just that Sister Fei wants to thank you for sending her back with Lord Shangguan, but this doesn't make Brother Xiang break the bank."
Xiang Wu, who has always been introverted, laughed: "Oh...... Oh, that's what happened, it's okay, it's okay to help each other! β
I smiled embarrassedly.
Xiang Wudao: "Speaking of this new Shangguan lord, it seems that he is much better than Zhao Fatzi. A few days ago, he asked me if I would like to be registered in the public register and be a yamen. I'm still thinking about whether I'm going to go......"
Xia Xia was quite assertive, and suggested: "That's indeed a good opportunityβlike Brother Xiang, you can't run all day long in the mountains. If you meet a good county official, you can still ask for the people's lives. β
Xiang Wu said: "That's right, one term of the country and one official, our hunting livelihood, anyway, we can catch it when we release it, but it will be difficult to enter when the number is full." β
Xia Xia nodded hurriedly: "I see that he even cleans the yamen alone, if I hadn't been able to spare time, I wouldn't have been able to bear to help him." β
Xiang Wu seemed to have made up his mind, and hurriedly hugged his fist at us: "Seeing that Boss Yan's complexion is much better, I won't bother you." So be it, I'll go first. β
I've always felt that this martial art was a bit weird, but I couldn't say why.
Xiang Wu turned around and was about to leave, but he was suddenly attracted by a painting on the wall, he looked at the painting seriously, and frowned slightly.
"What's wrong?" I saw him staring at the painting.
"Noβnothingβ" Xiang Wu blinked unnaturally, turned his head back, and continued to walk out.
I sent it to the door and Xia Xia stopped me: "There is a strong wind in the alley, Sister Fei is not in good health, I'll send it out of the alley." Go back and eat something to drink the medicine. β
Looking at the back of Xiang Wu leaving, the doubts in my heart not only did not decrease, but also added a layer of weirdness, I can't say why, Xiang Wu is not dead, shouldn't I be happy?
Just now he kept staring at the painting on my wallβ
