Chapter 3: Covetousness
"Thank you." Shi Sui withdrew his re-bandaged hand.
Looking out of the window, only half of the sun was exposed above the treetops, and the tired birds were returning home.
More than halfway through. Lou Changyun retracted his gaze, "You should be hungry too, I'll cook, you ......"
"No need," Shi Sui interrupted, "thank you very much for helping me, but it's time for me to go." ”
Shi Sui touched his waist, and paused, remembering that he was no longer in the clan and had no valuables on him. So gloom flashed in his eyes, and he had no choice but to say: "My name is Shi Sui, and four o'clock is Shi Sui, and I will come back to repay your kindness in the future." ”
Shi Sui got up and wanted to leave, but Lou Changyun suddenly approached, and the distance between the two was suddenly narrowed, and Shi Sui leaned back in surprise and lay down on the bed.
Lou Changyun continued to approach, and finally leaned on top of Shi Sui with his hands, "Are you afraid of me?" ”
As he spoke, the beard that fell on Shi Sui's face trembled and was a little itchy, and he wanted to reach out and scratch it.
Shi Sui turned his head away, avoiding Lou Changyun's gaze: "...... No. ”
His eyes dodged, and the demon beasts he chased were also like this, could it really be because of his lush hair? Lou Changyun got a little closer, and sure enough, Shi Sui's eyelashes trembled slightly, and even his breathing was slow and slight.
The beard that fell on his face became more and more, and he could feel the burning gaze of the person above him with his eyes closed.
Lou Changyun's gaze wandered on Shi Sui's face, and finally fell to his chin, where there was still a little blood that had not been wiped off, and he realized that Shi Sui was about to hold his breath and turn his back on his back, so he turned over and lay down next to Shi Sui.
"A person appears in the mountains, although there is only a wound on your hand, but your body is covered with blood, and something bad must have happened before you came."
“…… Yes," Shi Sui closed his eyes, "but what does this have to do with you? ”
"As I said, I like to do things from the beginning to the end, and since I saved you, I will protect you. Besides, aren't you afraid-" Lou Changyun glanced at Shi Sui, "Your defenseless little body, did you encounter the previous incident again?" ”
Shi Sui escaped with a teleportation circle, only his blood can trigger the circle, this place is thousands of miles away from the clan land, the world is so big, how can those people know where he is.
Shi Sui comforted himself and sneered at Lou Changyun's words, "You protect me thoroughly? You're just a little Orion, how can you protect me? ”
"And how can I know that I haven't just come out of the tiger's mouth and into the wolf's den?"
"You!" Lou Changyun was extremely angry, "If I have the intention of harming you, why should I carry you down the mountain and give you medicine?" ”
"Who knows what you're trying to do with me? Do you have to kill if you do harm? ”
Lou Changyun got up angrily and stared at Shi Sui, "As long as you are penniless, what else can people covet?" ”
Shi Sui also got up from the bed with Lou Changyun's gaze, and the two of them sat and stood together, one of them exposed his green tendons and the other gradually calmed down.
In the eye to eye, whoever can't hold their breath first loses. Lou Changyun was so angry that his fists were clenched tightly by Shi Sui's words, and this confrontation was naturally Lou Changyun's defeat.
"Since you want to go, I won't let you go!"
The door was kicked open and slammed shut, and there were two loud bangs, and only Shi Sui was left in the room.
Shi Sui maintained the action of looking at Lou Changyun for a long time, and it was not until Lou Changyun's angry footsteps went away that he breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed his body.
The place covered by his long hair has long been covered with sweat, and when he caresses the back of his neck, there is a symbol of his blood. The tribesmen all have a red mole on the back of their necks, but he is different, only when he is desperate for blood, a green leaf will appear on the back of his neck, perhaps he was born to perceive plants and trees, so he will be different from his clansmen.
He was just gambling, betting on whether Lou Changyun had other means to know his bloodline, but fortunately, Lou Changyun's reaction made him feel a little at ease. But he was still vigilant, after all, he was able to disguise the panic in his heart, and Lou Changyun might not be hiding his true intentions.
This is a strange world for him, he wants to take revenge, and he has to find the palace of Daqian, and the description of the world in the travelogues he has read is far from enough-
None of those mentioned Daqian.
The most important thing is that, as Lou Changyun said, he is penniless. No one would harm a penniless person, and in the same way, he had seen countless times in his travelogues about the importance of money.
Perhaps, Shi Sui looked at the void and clenched his fists, he could stay here for a while, and he couldn't be trapped here anyway.
Shi Sui, who made up his mind, followed the voice to find Lou Changyun.
Lou Changyun, who was chopping meat happily, said angrily when he just walked to the kitchen door: "What are you doing here?" Aren't you afraid that I will covet you? ”
"......" Shi Sui was silent for a moment, "I'm sorry, I'm too excited." ”
Lou Changyun snorted and did not respond.
I can tell that I am very unhappy.
“……”
Shi Sui's brain was running rapidly, and he thought of the words to deal with it when Lou Changyun finished chopping meat.
"I'll admit that I was deceived by appearances. But as you say, if you have the intention of harming me, why do you carry me down the mountain and take medicine for me? "What's more, he is a person who can't cultivate, if Lou Changyun really has other thoughts, he can be suppressed by force.
"Wait," Lou Changyun grasped the point, "'appearance'? Do you think I'm a bad person because I have messy hair and a scruffy beard? ”
When he said this, Lou Changyun turned to look at Shi Sui with a knife.
Shi Sui hurriedly stopped his urge to retreat, and carefully considered: "No, I don't think your house looks good, so I entered the fence and the few stone slabs in the yard with a strong smell of blood. ”
Lou Changyun suffered a critical hit.
"But now that I think about it, your house is so close to the mountain, and I think you came here for safety, such a fence is completely necessary; You're a hunter again, and you're supposed to be handling your prey at the slate a lot. ”
Lou Changyun recovered a little bit of blood.
As a result, I heard Shi Sui hesitate to speak, "But...... You can indeed consider tidying up your head, after all, it's still a bit scary to look at it. ”
Lou Changyun suffered a blow to the heart, and the blood groove was emptied.
The atmosphere was inexplicably a little awkward, seeing Lou Changyun handling all kinds of ingredients in the kitchen, but he didn't speak, and only then did he realize that he seemed to have said the wrong thing.
A person's solitude can always be spontaneous, and the relationship between two people needs to be run-in.
After a series of pots and pans clashing, the Jade Rabbit had reached the sky, and the world beyond the fence had fallen into a deep sleep, except for the occasional bark or two.
The lights of the world within the walls were extinguished.
……
Again, the familiar fog obscured the view.
Lou Changyun knew that this was a dream, since he came to Da'an Village inexplicably two years ago, he would always have such a dream.
Most of the time in the dream, there was only the fog that could not see the edge and himself, and Lou Changyun knew that this dream was related to his past.
He is a person who has lost his past, but only when he first entered this dream, he heard a voice that repeatedly called the word "Lou Changyun".
Later, he kept walking and running in one direction, but it seemed that the fog was filling with his steps, until the sun rose and he woke up from a dream, and he was still alone.
But today's dream has changed.
"Let go of me!" An extremely familiar voice rang out.
"Let you go? Let you go out to do evil, kill people and set fires, or punish the good and promote the evil? ”
"On what basis do you conclude that I will do evil, kill people and set fires, punish the good and promote the evil? It's the first time we've met! ”
"Just your prison uniform."
"Prison uniforms?" The familiar voice laughed a few times, and there was sadness in his voice, "Does wearing a prison uniform mean that he must be a wicked person?" Haha, I think my four sons of a dignified family have ended up like this! ”
Lou Changyun then remembered why this voice sounded familiar, it was clearly his own voice, and the voice of the other person who spoke to him was also very familiar, that is, the voice that called him "Lou Changyun" here for the first time, it sounded like the voice of the old age, but it was a little different.
Then the fog became thicker, and the fog seemed to have the effect of blocking the sound, and the voices of the two gradually dissipated, and Lou Changyun only heard the sound of a fight at the end.
When the fog was so thick that it seemed to be dripping water, Lou Changyun was squeezed out of his dream by the mist that had nowhere to place.
At this time, the sky was already bright, there were early birds in the distance to alarm the woods, and the bamboo poles in the courtyard were hung on the clothes of Lou Changyun and Shi Sui yesterday, and after a night of night breeze, they were almost dry.
The two clothes, one gray and one white, swayed slightly in the breeze, and Lou Changyun looked at the white clothes with deep eyes.
His purpose in bringing Shi Sui back was not simple.
Carrying Shi Sui down into the mountains, it is true that he is worried that he will be eaten by demon beasts in the deep mountains and his bones will be lost, but the most important thing is that this matter is just a gesture for him.
He has never been a person who "has a beginning and an end" in his mouth, and it is more appropriate to describe him with the words "spontaneous". Lou Changyun thought that if it was not Shi Sui who was unconscious in the mountains at that time, he would never take him to his home to settle down under the other party's repeated unappreciation.
At the first glance of Shi Sui, Lou Changyun felt familiar.
But it is true that I have never seen it.
Until Fang Cai's dream, a voice similar to that of the time. Now that I think about it, the voice of the old man is a little more tender, like a teenager who has not grown up, and the voice of the person in the dream is a little more mature.
Lou Changyun could conclude that the person wearing the prison uniform must be him, and the other person may be related to the age, and maybe the two people are extremely similar.
He didn't know if Shi Sui was really frightened by his sentence "Since you want to go, I won't let you go", or if there was another reason. But no matter what the reason for Shi Sui stayed, the current Lou Changyun will not let Shi Sui leave.
As for the Lou family, Lou Changyun only knew that the surname of Emperor Daqian was Lou, and the other Lou families had never heard of it.
But today's dream gave Lou Changyun ideas, listening to the tone in the dream, he should have been framed and imprisoned, he only needs to go to the official mansion to check the file, you can know which Lou Changyun he is.
But there is still a question at the moment, has the grievances on his body been washed away, and in the official files, is he a fugitive or a good citizen?
Thinking of his amnesia, Lou Changyun felt that the possibility of a fugitive was higher, but if he could register in the official mansion, at least his identity in Daqian was clean.
