Chapter 11: Behind the Truth
Speaking of which, the arrangement of this room is not complicated.
The most striking thing is the tiger head hanging on the wall, under which is a banner, and under the banner is a simple bed.
In addition, there is a desk by the window, in front of which is a chair, and next to it is a very simple bookshelf, but there are no books on it, just some bits and pieces, and I don't look closely.
That's the biggest piece in the room.
The rest is nothing more than something hanging on the wall, and the style is very messy, both calligraphy and painting, and some bits and pieces.
But it was not these things that caught my eye, but something that hung randomly on the bed, and I walked over, picked it up, shook it away with my hand, and brought a fresh breeze, and then a black cloak appeared in front of me.
When I saw this cloak, my heart tightened.
It's only because I've really seen it that I have such a familiar feeling In order to confirm my thoughts, I looked at this cloak carefully with some anxiety, and as expected, there were some dark red traces on it, and it was very old, if I hadn't seen it myself, how could I have thought that it was bright red bloodstains?
That's right, it's bloodstains, right? My hand tightened as I held the cloak, and I remembered what I had seen in my dreams.
In the vast snow, the lone figure in a blood-stained black cloak I have no doubt that it is the so-called Nie Yan, because besides him, who else will clearly appear in the picture that I can't tell whether it is a dream or a memory?
I remember the clear marks of blood on the cloak, which overlapped exactly with the marks in the cloak in my hand.
So what is this place? So what is the relationship between Nie Yan and me?
Thinking of this, my temples throbbed suddenly, I felt dizzy, my eyes were dizzy, and the hand holding the cloak kept tightening, and I trembled a little.
"Ye Shao, everything here has a long history, please understand that it is not easy for us to preserve, put it down first?" At this time, Su Ling's words sounded in my ears, and I was immersed in the pain of my own self-knowledge, and I didn't even notice what kind of expression she was.
It's just that the distress in her words can't be concealed?
How? Does she care much about this room and the one in the house? Come to think of it, if it's really the cloak I see in the picture? How many years ago should it be? What era is Nie Yan? With my knowledge of antiques, it is not difficult to deduce that this is a typical style of the Song Dynasty.
What's more, with the banner telling the past, the first sentence has a comment on the number of years.
Therefore, Nie Yan is a person from the Song Dynasty! Speaking of which, keeping these bits and pieces is a huge undertaking when you think about it! But for what? I'm not a fool, I already had a vague answer, but I didn't put down the cloak in my hand as I said, but still held it tightly in my hand, turned my head to look at Su Ling, my voice became extremely low, and said, "What kind of place is this?" β
Looking at my appearance, Su Ling opened his mouth slightly in fright, and subconsciously said, "Ye Shao? Are you alright? Your eyes are so red. β
Is it? My eyes are red? Am I excited to be like this?
But the next moment, Su Ling's expression became a little surprised, her voice trembled a little, and said, "Ye Shao, did you remember something?" Will you ask me this question? β
I put down the cloak in my hand, looked at Su Ling, and said, "Does this count as your temptation of me?" Is it to prove something? Does your role include this kind of thing? β
My voice was a little cold, and even my words became aggressive, and I was brought here on purpose, not for temptation, but for what? If this temptation proves anything, what is the meaning of Su Ling's group?
I hated being led by the nose without knowing it, and even a little girl could test me.
What's more, I don't feel safe at all, who should I trust in this environment? Master and Brother have long had no connection with my life, and my parents, relatives, and friends are all ordinary people, so they can't get involved in these messy things.
The only thing that supported me was the inexplicable trust in Chen Chengyi and Su Chengxin, otherwise I thought I would have stunned this Su Ling immediately, turned around and ran away, in short, I wouldn't stay here.
But obviously, this kind of trust lacks foundation, and I can't stand Su Lingtong guΓ²'s way to test me, and she touched my bottom line.
By the time my voice got cold, I was ready to do it.
But what I didn't expect was that Su Ling grabbed my arm, and the action was incredibly fast, and when I was shocked how Su Ling could have such skills, I looked up and saw Su Ling's red eyes, just glanced at me, and tears rolled out of my eyes.
"Ye Shao, this is indeed not my duty, and even if I decide to bring you here privately, I may be punished. However, I can't care about it, because I've been waiting too long, and I just want to prove it. "When she spoke, she was excited, and the hand that grabbed my arm became unusually hard.
The girl's nails sank into my muscles, making me feel a tingling pain and frown.
Seeing my expression, Su Ling suddenly became extremely sensitive, and even cried uncontrollably, and said to me: "Ye Shao, you can beat me and scold me." But please don't be angry, be sure to wait here, because you must be him, that man's words are not wrong, he is not lying to us. You are hoping that you really are"
Su Ling choked up and couldn't continue, but his eyes were full of sincerity and pleading.
I was a little speechless, putting aside the question in this sentence, who is that person? If you think about it, what age is this? I'm not a real young master, she's not a real servant, I don't have the right to beat her and scold her, how can she realize it as if she has been brainwashed? It's like I'm the savior in her eyes! I hated this slightly crazy behavior, but I couldn't bear Su Ling's hopeful and pleading eyes.
The important thing is that sentence, is there really such a group of people working hard for me behind the scenes? In life, I am most afraid of losing to others, in fact, relatively speaking, it is just a simple truth, giving is more blessed than receiving (giving is more blessed than receiving), at least the heart has no indebtedness, which is a great happiness. Not carrying cause and effect because of getting it is also a state of chic life that cannot be achieved lightly.
Therefore, I gently took Su Ling's hand, and my tone became a little softer, enduring the sharp pain from the beating of my temples, and said to Su Ling, "I don't have to leave." I also know what you want to prove, do you want to prove that I am Nie Yan? β
As soon as this name was spoken, Su Ling's expression became extremely shocked, and even full of panic, she muttered, "Ye Shao, how did you know this name?" Who sued you? β
"No one sues me, it's me who knows." I don't know how to explain this matter, the inexplicable connection with that Nie Yan has already made me very distressed, can I really only explain it in terms of past and present lives?
"What I know, what I know" Su Ling repeated this sentence as if she had lost consciousness, and the next moment, her eyes suddenly became bright, and she grabbed me again regardless of it, and said, "Ye Shao, can you take a look here more?" Stay a little longer? See if you can think of anything, the more you think about it, the better it will be for you, as long as it comes to mind naturally, you know. It won't hurt you, that's what the man said. β
"Who's that guy?" I don't even know how many times I've asked questions.
Su Ling also realized her gaffe, because she was excited to say too much, she subconsciously let go of my arm, wiped away her tears with a hidden and elegant movement, sniffed her nose, and said to me: "Ye Shao, first of all, I can't say more, I don't know if it's beneficial to you to say it." This is the decision of the organization, and I dare not go beyond it. Besides, that person is impossible to see according to my status, and I really don't know who he is. I only know that there is indeed such a person who saves zΓ i. β
I looked at Su Ling, believing that this time she was telling me the truth, and it was useless for me to ask too many questions.
I sighed, put down the cloak in my hand, and walked out of the room with some trepidation, I don't know why, after discovering this cloak, I had the idea that I didn't dare to stay in this room for a moment longer, not afraid, not depressed.
It's just an escape that you don't dare to face, what exactly is it to escape? I can't tell you clearly, Nie Yan's identity? Why do I have an indescribable throbbing pain in my heart?
"Ye Shao, don't you really want to take another look?" Su Ling's words were full of supplication, and once again full of supplication.
With my hands on my chest, it was the first time I had a sincere conversation with Su Ling, and I said, "I just listen to my heart, I don't want to stay here anymore." β
"But why wouldn't you?" Su Ling was a little distracted, obviously unwilling to accept this result, but it is estimated that she also felt that her problem was a little funny, and hurriedly added: "Ye Shao, our organization will only be good for you, and will definitely not harm you." If, do you think we are hiding something from you? As long as you wait a few days and the leader of the organization comes, you will know a lot. You don't want to be because of this."
When Su Ling said this, she couldn't speak anymore because of nervousness, which was very different from her professional image at the beginning, seeing her wring her hands like this, biting her lower lip, lowering her head, and crying, she looked a little bit more truly moving.
I couldn't help but laugh and said, "Don't be angry with this, do you?" I'm not that naΓ―ve, I just don't really want to stay longer. Take me back to my room. β
"Oh." Su Ling agreed a little stunned.
It was such a stunned moment, but it made me suddenly stunned, because this kind of stunned reminded me of a person, a name - Xin Yi! In this case, I actually missed her very much, and I didn't ask myself if I was worried about what would happen when Xin Yi came back and found out that I was suddenly gone.
"What time is it today?" I opened my mouth to ask Su Ling, and inexplicably because of this question, my nervous palms were a little sweaty.
If you miss it and can't find me, will I not dare to think about this girl anymore?
