Chapter 31: Awkward

I took a deep breath and stood up with my eyes open. www.biquge.info The old woman knelt down for me at once, and made a big salute with a prostrate bow, "Thank you, Immortal Master." ”

I reached out to help her up and said calmly, "The old man doesn't have to be polite. ”

"Dare to ask the immortal master where is this going?" The old woman lowered her eyebrows and asked very respectfully.

"This, I was ordered by the master to travel and practice, and I haven't thought of a specific route yet, so I plan to go home in the city to have a look, and then make plans."

The old woman thought for a moment, took out a jasper wrench from her bosom, and offered it with both hands.

"Immortal Master's great grace, there is no way to repay it, please accept this thing no matter what."

I see that the wrench finger is pure jade, the whole body is green, and it is full of color, not like a vulgar thing. Thinking about such a valuable thing, how can I accept it casually, I want to refuse politely. The old woman said, "This is a sacred relic in the old body, it is said to have magical powers, as long as it is there, it can command the people of my clan." ”

As soon as I heard this, I paid it back, and hurriedly excused myself: "Old donor, I can't accept this even more."

But the old woman said, "Don't be polite, immortal master, just take it, although this thing is good, it is useless to me." Truth be told, we've been involved for countless generations, and we can't understand the mystery, let alone manipulate it. It's a terrible thing in our hands, and it may be of great use in your hands. ”

When the old woman saw that I was about to excuse herself, she said, "Why don't you put it on, and if you don't wear it properly, it's not too late to give it back to me." ”

Since it's hard to resist, I thought, let's try it, anyway, the wrench looks much thicker than my finger, how can it be worn properly?

I took the wrench and put it on my left thumb, not wanting the jade to be alive, so I shrunk it all at once, and it fit tightly on my finger, just right. I was taken aback, could it be that something had happened? Hurriedly looked at the old woman, not wanting her to be surprised, very excited.

"God, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, I only heard that this thing has spirituality and recognizes the Lord, but I didn't expect it to be true! It seems that you are the master of this wrench, please bow down to the old man again. ”

Saying that, I turned over and bowed, and I hurriedly went to help, "Old man, I can't stand this." ”

"Bearable, bearable." The old woman insisted on making a big salute, and I had to let her.

"Today's old body is considered to be a long insight, and he hasn't lived in vain." The old woman got up and chattered contentedly after the salute.

"Old donor, thank you very much, we still have to hurry, don't pass by, we will have a period later."

I gave a shallow salute and pulled the dumbfounded clearman standing aside, "Let's go." ”

The old woman smiled and bowed her head to me, and as soon as I turned around, she fell to the ground and turned into her yellow skin, and slipped into the hole hidden in the grass.

Jingkong wanted to turn back, but I pulled my head and whispered, "Don't look." And he trembled all over, and froze there. I think what happened along the way was enough for him to digest, and I was afraid to scare him.

With a sigh, I stepped forward and took his hand and led him forward. He followed me on all fours, and his neck was straight, as if he could not move. I looked at the side of his face, and my muscles were so tense that I was about to spasm, I was afraid that I was really scared.

I didn't let go until I was on the right path. Feeling relieved, he stroked his chest and let out a sigh of relief, then he looked back, and then fell silent. I was surprised by this reaction, and I thought he would pester me and ask me a lot of questions!

The two men walked silently for a long time, and when they were almost at the bottom of the city, I stopped and turned to look directly at him. The clear space dodged his eyes, not daring to look at me.

"If you regret it now and want to go back, I won't blame you."

After a long time, he lowered his eyes and whispered, "I don't plan to go back." ”

"I don't plan to go back, so who are you doing this for?" I was immediately on fire, and I sat down and sulked on a curb stone.

Jingkong bit his lip, his eyes were slightly red, and he twisted his head to the side, sullen and didn't say a word. I get angry when I see him like this, and I can't wait to give him a kick.

He had always let me, and now he was on the side and on the side, and he didn't come to coax me. The more I thought about it, the more aggrieved I became, and I couldn't hold back my tears and wanted to fall. I blinked hard and held it back, and I couldn't lose the battle.

The two of them were in a stalemate for a long time, and finally he probably sensed that something was wrong with me, and moved over and pulled my sleeve, and I turned sideways to ignore him.

It's okay when no one coaxes, but now that someone takes care of it, I can't hold back my tears anymore, and I can't wipe them like beads with broken threads.

He panicked, crouched down and tilted his head to look at me from the bottom up, and then simply reached out and held my face with both hands, and wiped away my tears with two thumbs.

"Didn't you ignore me? What are you doing with me? I choked up with tears, big tears drenching his hands.

He lowered his hand, hung his head, and fell silent. The air instantly became suffocating. Just when I was about to lose confidence and completely despair, suddenly, he raised his head and looked directly at me, his eyes were extremely complicated, and I couldn't understand it.

"I feel like a clown who has been played like a monkey, thinking that he can protect others, but they don't need it!"

He finally broke out.

I was stunned, never thinking that my kind concealment would make people feel like this. But am I my fault? I just want to try to look like everyone else, not so special, to spend as much time as possible with the people I care about. Am I at fault?

"Remember, no one is playing you like a monkey." Seeing his eyes cracked and hurt, I took a deep breath, "Maybe I don't need your protection, but I do need your company." Sometimes hiding something from a person is not a contempt for him, on the contrary, it can be a kind of protection. If you think this has hurt you, then please forgive me. ”

His expression softened, not as stiff as before, but he still looked at me stubbornly.

I sighed and said, "Maybe you don't believe it, I don't know where my abilities come from, and I want to know the answers to many things, and I can't explain them to you until I find the answers." Also, I don't want people to think of me as a goblin or a monster. It's not because I'm afraid, it's because I don't want to leave. You and Master are both people I care about, and I don't want to be forced to leave you or hurt you because I'm an alien. ”

Clearspace nodded thoughtfully.

"I've said this nonsense, and I don't know if I mean it clearly enough, and I don't know if you can understand and understand?"

Clearance frowned, as if trying to digest everything I said.

"Although I can't fully understand and understand, I know that you are for our good, and that is enough."

Hearing him say this, I instantly burst into tears and laughed, and teased him: "Then you're not angry? ”

He scratched his ears and cheeks and struggled for a while, and then said to me as if he had made up his mind: "Well, put it aside if you are not angry, we have to say it in advance, no matter what happens in the future, you can't hide it from me, you have to share it together, can you agree?" ”

I nodded and smiled.

Clearance is clearance, and he is like an old hen that hatches eggs, always wanting to treat me as his egg under his wings. I really don't know if this is his blessing or his sorrow.
