Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Great Sleep Together
No, as soon as he appeared, he almost startled Xiaoyu.
But said that after Xiaoyu took a bath in the bathing room, he returned to the bedroom, sat on the delicate and comfortable wooden bed, looked at the empty room, and his heart was full of loss.
She felt that although the environment here was beautiful, it was not as happy and fulfilling as the days when she fled to the mountains with her son.
She reached out and touched the cut-out pattern on the edge of the bed, and then touched the soft and comfortable quilt, and felt that it was all so unreal.
I don't know why she thought of her family again, and thought of their grief before death, which made her heart even more uncomfortable.
Although the leader of the bandits died at the hands of Childe, the murderer of her own family is still at large, but there is nothing she can do about it.
And those relatives in the village were still in the hands of the bandits, and she felt deeply uneasy at the thought that they were most likely to be abused, knowing that among those people were her childhood friends and aunts.
Xiaoyu's eyes were red, and she couldn't help crying bitterly.
"If there were no disasters, it would be nice if my parents and brother could live with me in such a beautiful house." Xiaoyu couldn't help but sigh.
She didn't know how long she cried, she suddenly wanted to go to Childe, she didn't want to stay here alone, this desire became stronger and stronger, and finally made her let go of the reserve in her heart, gritted her teeth and walked towards the study where Childe was resting.
The oil lamp in the study was dim, and no one could be seen.
"Could it be that Childe has already fallen asleep?" Xiaoyu couldn't help but secretly think, which made her hesitate a little, but in the end she reached out and knocked on the door.
There was no response, she knocked again, but there was still no response, she couldn't help but shout softly: "Childe, childe!" ”
No, she shouted five or six times in a row, but there was still no response from inside.
This filled her heart with uneasiness, and she didn't know if Childe was asleep or if Childe wasn't inside.
She suddenly remembered that she got up early that morning and went to Childe's bedroom to look for the other party, only to find that the other party was gone, and she suddenly felt a little worried, worried about whether Childe would leave again.
Although it was night, she didn't think that Childe would leave inexplicably, but she was still full of uneasiness.
She tried to gently push the wooden door, but she didn't expect the wooden door to be unlocked, and she pushed it open with a gentle push.
Looking at the empty study, Xiaoyu was a little dumbfounded, she really wanted to come to something, she didn't know why Gongzi wanted to leave her again, which made her suddenly feel a little sad and a little desperate.
She walked to the low floor of the study in a daze, sat upright, and once again couldn't hold back her tears.
"Childe is gone, what should I do?" Xiaoyu has regarded Poplar as her only reliance, and now that Poplar has disappeared, she is a little overwhelmed, she doesn't know what she should do in the future, and now she is homeless.
She took out a black strange object from her bosom, this thing was found by her from Childe that day, because she was curious, she took it for herself, originally she planned to wait for the time to return this thing to Childe, but she didn't think that now this thing has become the only thing that Childe left on her body that can be used to send thoughts.
If she could exchange this item for Childe, she would definitely choose to keep Childe by her side without hesitation, but unfortunately she knew that this would not happen.
When Poplar sorted out his things in the yard, the moment his consciousness returned to the study, he happened to see Xiaoyu sitting in his study in a daze, looking at the mobile phone in his hand.
He thought something was going on, and a thought quickly appeared.
"Ahh Xiaoyu was startled by the sudden appearance of the poplar, and almost threw the mobile phone in her hand.
But when she saw that it was Gongzi, she immediately cried with joy and threw herself into the arms of the dirty poplar.
Bai Yang touched his nose in wonder, just now he saw that Xiaoyu almost threw the phone out, almost scared his little liver out, he thought that the phone had been destroyed by those thieves, but he didn't expect it to be on Xiaoyu.
Feeling the softness coming from Xiaoyu's chest, Bai Yang couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, but he still forcibly suppressed this bad thought, and hurriedly patted Xiaoyu's fragrant shoulder and said, "Xiaoyu, I'm a little dirty, you come down quickly." ”
"Childe, I don't." Xiaoyu pouted and said, Gongzi couldn't wait to appear again, so she didn't want to let go again.
"Xiaoyu, my body stinks now, I can't take a shower like this." Poplar looked helpless, and could only find an excuse to take a bath, hoping to persuade Xiaoyu to come down.
But I didn't want Xiaoyu to blush and said, "Childe, why don't you help Xiaoyu bathe you?" ”
Bai Yang's eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at Xiaoyu hanging on him in disbelief, I don't know what's wrong with Xiaoyu today, how does it feel different from usual?
Although he was a little moved, but after thinking about it, he still couldn't pass the level in his heart, he gritted his teeth and said with a tangled face: "Xiaoyu, don't talk nonsense, why do I want you to help me if I have hands and feet, okay, you come down, you hang on me like this, I feel very uncomfortable." ”
Poplar was honest, he wished that Xiaoyu could hang on him for a while, but he had to persuade the other party to come down quickly, of course, this was also because he couldn't hold it anymore.
Hearing Childe say that he was very uncomfortable, Xiaoyu was startled, and thought that he had crushed Childe, so he hurriedly jumped off Poplar with an exclamation.
"Childe, where are you uncomfortable? It was all bad for Xiaoyu just now, and it hurt Childe. Xiaoyu asked with a nervous and concerned face.
How could Bai Yang feel that what the other party said was very strange, but there seemed to be no problem with the literal meaning, which made him a little surprised.
"Okay, okay, it's okay, don't worry, by the way, why did you cry just now, did something happen?"
Xiaoyu blushed, shook his head, and then nodded, but did not say what the reason was, which made Poplar confused.
What is this for, playing dumb riddles with yourself? Poplar couldn't laugh or cry.
He couldn't guess Xiaoyu's thoughts, so he could only say to Xiaoyu cheekily: "Xiaoyu, I can't guess, can you tell me?" ”
Xiaoyu glanced at Childe with some surprise, as if she couldn't understand why Childe said this, she didn't mean to let Childe guess just now, but she was shy in her heart and didn't know how to explain.
Obviously, she already understood that she had misunderstood Childe before, and thought that Childe had once again said goodbye.
"I, I ······" Xiaoyu blushed, and her tone was a little speechless.
"Huh?" Bai Yang was even more puzzled, and couldn't help but ask with some worry: "Xiaoyu, what's wrong with you, is there something wrong with your body?" ”
If Xiaoyu was really unwell, Bai Yang really didn't know what to do, with the backward civilization level of this world, he couldn't believe the level of doctors in this world.
"No, it's not, I just thought you were leaving again, so I was a little scared." Xiaoyu lowered her head and whispered.
Hearing Xiaoyu's answer, Poplar not only did not breathe a sigh of relief, but felt a little heavy.
He is definitely going to leave this world, but seeing Xiaoyu relying on him so much, how should this be?
Can you really bear to leave each other here alone when the time comes? Poplar felt that he couldn't do such a cruel thing.
But is it really bringing light rain back to Earth? Poplar thinks about it and feels unrealistic.
The civilization of the earth is too developed, Xiaoyu doesn't talk about whether the earth can adapt, and the identity problem is also a big problem, does it make Xiaoyu live in a dark corner all the time, what is the difference between this and leaving her alone on an alien planet.
"It's a headache." Poplar feels a little big-headed.
He gently stroked Xiaoyu's smooth face a few times, and comforted: "Xiaoyu, don't worry, I won't leave you, even if I want to leave here, I won't leave you here alone, don't worry." ”
"It seems that we can only take one step at a time." Although Poplar said this to Xiaoyu, he had no plans to live on this alien planet permanently, and only hoped to wait for Xiaoyu to get used to life here a little before making plans.
Hearing Poplar's assurance, Xiaoyu was completely relieved.
She didn't say anything more about bathing Poplar, and at this time she regained her girlish reserve, and when she heard Poplar half-jokingly ask her if she wanted to bathe him, she immediately ran away with a red face.
Looking at the stolen Xiaoyu, Poplar was very depressed, is this considered a cocoon, is he too hypocritical, no wonder he can't find a girlfriend in college.
There was no one to help him bathe, so he had to boil, release, and pour water by himself.
However, what made him wonder was that after taking a shower, he found that he had not changed his clothes.
In order not to let himself walk back to the study naked, he could only frown and put the dirty mess back on his body again.
"Looks like I'm going to have to buy myself a few clothes tomorrow." Poplar thought to himself as he walked back.
When he returned to the study, he was suddenly startled, only to see Xiaoyu lying on his low floor with the quilt closed.
What's going on? Poplar's eyes widened slightly.
"Xiaoyu, why are you asleep?" Poplar couldn't help but ask.
Xiaoyu seemed to be a little shy and hid in the quilt, turned her back to Bai Yang and said, "Childe, that bedroom is too big, I'm afraid to sleep alone." ”
"Ugh." Poplar was a little speechless.
But this world pays attention to the defense of men and women, and a woman's innocence is even more important than her life, is it really good for Xiaoyu to do this?
Poplar doesn't want to ruin a girl's innocence, but he doesn't know that he has inadvertently ruined Xiaoyu's innocence.
"Forget it today, it seems that tomorrow I will ask Zhao He to find a little girl to be Xiaoyu's companion." Poplar reluctantly made a decision.
Fortunately, this low floor is relatively spacious, so it doesn't look cramped even if two people sleep on it.
The two of them had a quilt each, Xiaoyu slept inside, and Poplar slept outside, and before he knew it, Xiaoyu had made a slight sound of sleeping, but Poplar couldn't fall asleep a little over and over.
He thought it was because of the light rain, but when he calmed down and thought about it, he realized that it was because he had harvested a lot of gold tonight that he couldn't sleep with excitement.
"I don't know what Qi Wenfei and these people are doing now?" Poplar's mind inexplicably flew to another person.
Although it was dark outside the house at night, it was not very late, which was equivalent to about seven o'clock in Earth time.
And from what Poplar has learned, the day in this world is longer than that of the earth, about twenty-five to twenty-six hours, which makes it difficult for him to imagine that people in this world have to sleep for several hours a night.
On Earth, he basically doesn't sleep after ten o'clock, and now he is suddenly put to sleep so early, so that he is really not used to it.
Thinking of Qi Wenfei, he immediately summoned the starry sky map and found the light source located on Qingfeng Mountain.
However, when he came to the sky above the light source, he was a little stunned, because there was a fierce battle going on near this light source.
