Chapter Twenty-Six: My Sorrow Is With You
In the cold night of deep winter, the snow falls silently.
The boy raised his foot and kicked open the door, and walked out slowly, stepping on the snow, the grooves were extremely deep, and there was a series of footprints.
At this moment, the door of the main hall on the side was opened with a "squeak", and the man in black came out with a condensed expression.
The voice ringing in his ears was very low and soft: "Put me down." ”
The moment he landed, his knees weakened, Ye Xiuwen's face was so white that there was no blood, his body was shaking, Percy hurriedly stretched out his hand and hugged it: "What are you doing here?"
As soon as these words fell, I saw Dai Xijiu, who was lying on Fu Zhi's stretcher and came out of the gate.
The wind blew and the snow fell.
The voice of the cold wind to his ears was soft and soft, with a slight dullness: "Jiujiu." ”
Dai Xijiu, who had been watching Fu Zhi closely, stiffened, stopped his steps, and slowly looked up at the person in front of him, and a long line of black-clothed mermaids behind him passed through the long dragon quickly.
Her gaze was serene, with a hint of coldness in her tranquility: "Don't call me that." ”
Ye Xiuwen smiled lightly, his face was especially soft in the snow of such a night, and he replied gently: "Okay." ”
He walked up to her, his gaze falling on the muzzle of the gun on her shoulder, blood sliding down the cuffs to her fingertips and into the snow.
But she stood there like this, her back straight, and her face was not a little painful, not half a wave.
Ye Xiuwen raised his hand gently, his fingers were slender and white, and the water chestnut at the top of the deep blood diamond ring was as sharp as a blade.
Dai Xijiu struggled in an instant, took two steps back, his voice was hoarse and almost broken, and he suddenly burst out after a long time: "Don't touch me!"
Compared to her fierceness, Ye Xiuwen was still calm, and replied gently and accommodatingly: "Okay." ”
But the movements in his hands still didn't stop, leaning over slightly and passing the collapse belt under Dai Xijiu's arm, the movement was very light, and the knuckles flipped to bandage the wound that the bullet had grazed, and his voice was a little shallow sigh: "If you are sad, you should blame the person who hurt you, how can you embarrass yourself." ”
Dai Xijiu lowered his eyes, looked at Ye Xiuwen's lowered and lightly drooping eyelashes, and looked at the movements in his hands, looking focused and careful.
She suddenly wanted to laugh, and tilted her head over her eyes, letting the flakes of snow fall coldly on her eyebrows, as if this was the way she could be a little more sober.
"This wound can be bandaged, but what about the rest?"
She lowered her head suddenly, pushed Ye Xiuwen away, and opened her mouth, only to find that the cold wind had gone through the calendar, cutting straight through her throat like a sharp knife, her knuckles were white and pressed tightly on her chest, and her voice was hoarse: "What about here?"
"Blame you, can it be as if it didn't happen tonight?
With this push, Ye Xiuwen's back hit the wall directly on the side of the door, he lowered his head and coughed lightly, his pupils were dark, bottomless, and his eyes were calm when he looked at Dai Xijiu: "Cruelty is always the truth itself, not tonight, not me." ”
The pain that a person should face does not disappear with the passage of time, and the more time passes, the deeper the decay, and the more painful the scars are revealed.
Dai Xijiu bit his lower lip, his eyes were watery, and he shook his head lightly: "No, it's you, Ye Xiuwen." The saddest thing for me is you. ”
She looked at him tightly, as if this was the last gentle look, and in order to make him listen more carefully, each word was bitten slowly and clearly: "What makes me saddest the most is why it was you who uncovered all this." “
It was her first and only show of weakness, and after the doomed end between them, the only difference between him and hers was to say it.
At this moment, there was a moment of silence between the two people.
Ye Xiuwen lowered his head and looked at her carefully, then raised his fingers lightly, bringing her windswept sideburns behind his ears, and said in a gentle and low voice: "Jiujiu, only the person you hate is me, and you can do everything you want to do." ”
It is better to bear the pain that you can vent than to make you hate someone who can never be blamed than the pain that is buried deep in your heart and has nowhere to vent.
Behind such a dark and profound tenderness, it was all he could protect after trying his best.
But the current Dai Xijiu has no way of understanding at all.
For her, all tenderness is a trap, and every whisper is a bloody drench in the future.
So she just stepped back slightly, slowly separated the hands behind her ears, looked at him through the heavy snow, and said in a sad voice: "If I die tonight, will you still bandage this wound for me?"
Ye Xiuwen's fingers stopped in mid-air, his eyes were empty for a moment, his slender knuckles were gently curled, a piece of falling snow was picked up in his palm, and his voice was calm: "There will be no such if." ”
Dai Xijiu chuckled and sneered: "What if there is?"
When these words fell, Ye Xiuwen's fingers hung down slightly, paused for a moment, lowered his eyes and smiled, and slowly bowed his head: "Miss, it is also my duty to tidy up your body." ”
Obviously he was already in the snow, why did he suddenly fall into the ice cellar.
Dai Xijiu's body was stiff, and he raised his eyes to look at the guards, and suddenly realized: "Yes, Ye Xiuwen, it's a good time to dispose of me with the help of Gillian, and in the future, everyone will still bury their heads in me......"
Speaking of this, he chuckled coldly, and he didn't know whether he was laughing at him or himself until now, and his voice was sinister and sarcastic: "Even I feel sorry for you......"
Ye Xiuwen leaned against the side of the wall, lowered his eyes slightly, and smiled lazily: "Jiujiu, have you ever thought that if I want to kill you, there is more than this." ”
This sentence fell Dai Xijiu's expression was instantly cold, and he suddenly approached, raised his hand to strangle Ye Xiuwen's neck, and pressed it directly against the wall, with a lot of strength, his eyes were cold, and the words were clear: "Ye Xiuwen, you remember, I am the master you personally identified when you knelt down in front of the entire one hundred and eight clans, and there will be no other relationship between you and me, if you dare to have a trace of disrespect to me like today, just wait to go to the dark temple to receive punishment." ”
Ye Xiuwen raised his head slightly at this moment, the arc of his jaw was beautiful and exquisite, his breathing was already a little laborious, with a slightly suppressed cough, looking at Dai Xijiu, at this moment, his eyes were as wet and cool as snow, his thick eyelashes were gently lowered, and his voice was hoarse and almost inaudible: "Yes, Miss." ”
Percy couldn't hold back any longer after all, and suddenly took a few steps forward and grabbed Dai Xijiu's wrist, stopping in front of Ye Xiuwen, his eyes were cold: "Why are you so ruthless, can't you see him injured?"
Ye Xiuwen lightly put his fingers on his waist, he almost didn't have the strength to cough, he only tilted his head slightly against the wall and breathed softly, his voice was low and almost inaudible, so it was especially cold: "Percy......"
There was a hint of patience between the young man's eyebrows, and he snorted coldly and shook Dai Xijiu's wrist away, but his eyes were staring at her coldly, and he didn't move.
Dai Xijiu's eyes were cold, and he looked through the door to the cold stone dark room, which was full of corpses and blood: "Soft-heartedness can only be reserved for those who have compassion......
She glanced at Ye Xiuwen, her back straightened, her voice was ruthless, and her expression was colder than frost and snow: "He is not worthy." ”
This sentence fell, without half a minute of stopping, and had already walked into the hall step by step.
The candle flame flickered, and Gillian knelt on the ground, her eyes completely empty, her expression was serene, and her long skirt was pale and had been stained with blood, like a blood-drenched white rose in the dark night.
Dai Xijiu slowly squatted down in front of her, her fingers gently lifted and pinched the corners of her sleeves, wiped away a drop of blood on her face, and said in a soft and quiet voice: "Sister, when you come to this point, everyone is forced by their own interests, I don't blame you, I only blame us for not being born in an ordinary family." ”
When she said this, she smiled in a low voice, as if she had been childish and smart: "I also have a wish, do you want to listen?"
She sighed lowly, her forehead pressed against Gillian's shoulder, and her voice was hoarse: "I wish to live forever, the stars will change, and there will never be a change between you and me." ”
Gillian's eyes trembled slightly, and she didn't regain a few minutes of focus until this moment, and gently raised her hand to caress Daisy Jiu's trembling shoulders, and said in a bleak voice: "Daisy, my sister has understood it a long time ago. ”
A person who is not capable enough is not worthy of desire. ”
yes, I got it today.
Dai Xijiu raised his head, there was no trace of tears in the corners of his eyes, and he slowly stood up, the cold wind blew, and he smiled lightly: "Sister, in fact, I remember, the death day of the clan mother is in the autumn." ”
After saying this, he turned and walked away.
Step by step, without hesitation, she was already sober and knew what path she was going to take next.
The blood will only be darker than the foot.
The voice from behind was especially low: "I know, you know. ”
Dai Xijiu smiled lowly, his eyes flickering through the candle flames.
She didn't have the last mercy for her.
She had already laid the answer to this choice in front of her early on.
It's just that in order to repay these eight years of kindness, she chose the result she needed.
Outside the door, Ye Xiuwen leaned against the side of the wall, and the exhaled air pushed out a thin layer of frost mist, and in the falling snow, his delicate face was even more illusory and beautiful, and his eyelashes were slightly closed.
It wasn't until the boy was sure that Dai Xijiu was safe that he reminded him: "Come out." ”
"Let's go. ”
