Chapter 59: It can only be taken as a joke
That night, Mu Ci tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, and his mind was full of what he had said to him during the day. Is it really the only way to give up? Think about it, Xie Qingxi didn't know Mu Ci's thoughts about her at all, if Mu Ci confessed to Xie Qingxi first, would the ending still be like this?
Mu Ci sat alone by the fire, looking at the burning flames, and gradually fell into deep thought, what should he do to give himself a satisfactory answer. Xie Qingxi turned over and saw Mu Ci sitting alone in front of the fire in a daze, then walked to Mu Ci's side and sat beside Mu Ci.
"Qingxi? Why haven't you slept yet? Mu Ci couldn't help but be a little happy when he saw Xie Qingxi sitting beside him.
"Brother Mu, you seem to be preoccupied and have a long night, if you don't mind, I am willing to be your listener." Ever since he left the house, Mu Ci has been sullen and worried, which really worries Xie Qingxi.
"Qingxi, something told him, maybe the ending will be very happy and happy, but maybe the ending will be unsatisfactory, if it were you, what would you choose?" Mu Ci looked at Xie Qingxi, his face full of anticipation, hoping that Xie Qingxi could give him an answer.
"If telling her will make her happier than not telling her, you tell her, and if it won't make her happier, then don't tell her." In fact, although Xie Qingxi didn't understand the affairs of men and women, how could she not feel Mu Ci's special concern for her, but she didn't want to lose Mu Ci's friend, so she had to pretend not to understand.
"Qingxi, what would you do if I said I liked you?" Mu Ci asked Xie Qingxi tentatively, but he didn't expect Xie Qingxi's reaction to be quite calm.
"Brother Mu, you also know me and Yanzhi...... Moreover, I have always regarded you as my big brother, and I have no other thoughts. Xie Qingxi knows that this is not if, she can feel the difference between the curtain words and her, and she also knows that she likes it.
"I know you've never had me in your heart." The curtain lowered his head, trying not to let Xie Qingxi see the sadness in his eyes, and not let Xie Qingxi see his red eyes.
Just when Xie Qingxi didn't know how to answer Mu Ci, Mu Ci turned his head around again and squeezed out a big smile on his face. "Okay, it's funny, I didn't expect you to take it seriously. Do you know what she said to me today? ”
"What?" Xie Qingxi asked curiously.
"It said, don't make me like you, because ah, you're a fool!" Mu Ci looked indifferent, and made fun of Xie Qingxi.
"Brother Mu, when did you become so naughty, really." Xie Qingxi saw that Mu Ci could still joke with herself, so she thought that Mu Ci was really just joking with her. In fact, whether it's a joke or not, the two people at this moment can only take it as a joke.
"Alright, go to bed, I've left the vigil." Mu Ci looked at Xie Qingxi and pretended that he had nothing to do, but who knew that now Mu Ci's heart felt like he had been pierced by a sword.
"Brother Namu, I'm going to rest, call us if there's anything." Xie Qingxi looked at Mu Ci uneasily, always feeling that Mu Ci was weird, but it was not good to say anything.
"Hmm." Mu Ci looked at Xie Qingxi's back when he turned around, and the five flavors and miscellaneous things in his eyes were all revealed at that moment. "Qingxi!" Mu Ci couldn't help but stop Xie Qingxi, he wanted to tell Xie Qingxi all the feelings buried deep in his heart at this moment, but he didn't.
"Good night." A thousand words were not spoken, just a soft good night.
"Well, good night." Xie Qingxi turned around and said goodnight to this Mu Ci, and then turned around to rest, but she didn't notice that the person behind her at the moment she turned around said softly, "I wish you happiness." ”
It turned out that after hearing the secret of Mu Ci, he thought of himself. Many, many years ago, a very beautiful girl came to the Blackwater Swamp, and her smile and every move made her unforgettable.
That beautiful girl had been with her for a long, long time in this black water swamp, when she was still a young man, and he would come to the ground in human form and meet this beautiful girl.
The girl came every day, from the cold winter to the blossoming of the earth, year after year. But suddenly one day the girl did not come, and she waited there for a long time, from dawn to dark, and from dark to dawn, but she still did not see the girl.
She misses that girl day and night, and she doesn't want to eat. Later, one day, the girl came back, but this time she was completely dead and injured.
The girl told her that she had been here for a few years in search of a man who had been her husband and had an accident during an outing. Her companions told her that her husband was drowning in the black swamp, and that if she could find him, she might be able to save her.
So she came, and for three years, at first she had been looking for an opportunity to ask if she had seen her husband. However, she has never been able to speak, and later she and Yan Yang got along day and night, and she also forgot the grief of her husband's death.
I wanted to stay in the Blackwater Swamp like this, and I was with him. Unexpectedly, she got the news that her husband was back. The girl rushed back without stopping, and it turned out that her husband was rescued after being drowned in the swamp, but because the swamp had no head over his head at that time, after being rescued, her husband was in a coma for three years.
After the girl's husband came back, the girl had been by her husband's side, but she found that the three years of day and night with her had already made her fall in love with her, but she couldn't leave her husband, so she decided to come and explain all this to her.
When she came, she also wanted to explain everything, and asked her why she couldn't be together in love, but she shook her head and turned away.
The girl didn't know that the person who had brought her husband out of the swamp that year was Wo Yu, and she didn't know that she had broken the rules in order to save her husband, and that she could no longer change into human form when she was punished, and could only stay in this swamp forever.
That day, he leaned in Mu Ci's ear, and what he said to Mu Ci turned out to be "Put it down, maybe this is the best choice for you." This girl is very much like her, and the man next to her is her husband. ”
After a while, it was dawn. After a few people packed their bags, they immediately set off again. It turned out that the clothes they carried were stuck in the quagmire when they were used to save Chubby in the Blackwater Swamp and could not be used, so several people discussed it and decided to go to a neighboring town to buy two sets of clothes before making them.
A few people came to a town that was relatively close to the Blackwater Marsh, and after buying a few clothes from the town's clothing store, they found a restaurant to prepare for a big meal.
As soon as a few people sat down, they heard the people next to them talking about what was happening in Bluestone Town.
"Hey, have you heard? There is a small town not far from here called Bluestone Town, I heard that almost everyone in this bluestone town has special abilities, but it seems that some time ago, a group of people came to this bluestone town and captured all the people in this town. ”
"Really? And such a thing? ”
"Not really! Well, two days ago, that group of people came to our town, and it scared the hell out of us. ”
"What do you say? Have they been here? Xie Qingxi heard the person at the next table say that the mysterious organization seemed to have been here, so he immediately rushed over to ask these two people.
"Who are you?" The guests who were still discussing gossip with relish were frightened by Xie Qingxi, who suddenly rushed over, and immediately raised their vigilance.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. We're from Bluestone, and we want to know the whereabouts of the people who took our other townspeople. Seeing this, Bai Lixuan hurriedly pulled Xie Qingxi over to block him, and then inquired about the situation with these two people.
"Oh~ Didn't you say that everyone in Bluestone Town was arrested? Why are you still left? Those two people were still suspicious of the identities of Xie Qingxi and the others, and looked a few people up and down with their eyes.
"Oh, that's right, when the townsfolk were taken away, a few of us happened to be outside, and we only heard about it when we got back, so we chased them here without stopping, but as soon as we caught them, we were gone. I also think that the two eldest brothers can help, so that we can rescue the innocent townspeople sooner. ”
I have to say that Bai Lixuan still has a pitiful attitude, this pitiful little expression, even Xie Qingxi and the others are about to believe that what Bai Lixuan said is true.
"Seeing that you are in such a hurry, I will tell you. Actually, we didn't see any of the townspeople in Bluestone, so if so many people walked through here, it wouldn't arouse suspicion. Two days ago, two people dressed differently came to our town to buy something, and I happened to run into them, and when I saw that they were a little strange and bought a lot of food, I followed them all the way to the back of the town, and who knew that I saw a bunch of people locked in a big cage, and I was so frightened that I hurried back. ”
"This man is describing what he describes, and it doesn't look like he's lying." Gu Yanzhi whispered to Bai Lixuan, motioning for him to continue asking.
"Big brother, are they still like that?" Bai Lixuan received Gu Yanzhi's hint and continued to ask.
"I went to take a look this morning, and I think the person is gone, but I didn't see it anyway."
"Can you tell us where you met them, big brother?"
Seeing that Bai Lixuan kept asking, the two of them looked a little impatient, so they stopped talking.
