Chapter 8: Loneliness
In fact, Ye Ruxue didn't deliberately pretend to be deep from beginning to end, mainly because this time in the face of two six-year-old children who had just been wiped out, he was a little difficult, thinking about what method to use to make the two children not cry and make a fuss when they woke up, but as a result, after thinking about it for a long time, he didn't find a suitable way to deal with it, and finally it was Long Chen, who came to his senses, solved this troublesome problem.
"I can answer this question, but I always think that it is meaningless to tell you now, because you are not able to find your mother now, and even if you find it, you will not be able to reunite with your mother, and you may even lose your life, do you know what I said?"
Ye Ruxue looked at Long Chen and replied without hurrying.
"Yes. ”
Long Chen only replied with one word, and the frowning brows that had been frowning were slightly relaxed, of course he knew that even if he knew where his mother was, it would be useless, he just wanted to confirm from the mouth of this green-robed man whether his mother was still alive.
Long Linyuan is dead, this fact can no longer be changed, the two things that Long Chen can do now, in addition to burying his hatred in his heart and hoping that he can one day avenge his father, is to fulfill his father's instructions before his death to find his mother and the younger brother or sister who has not yet been born.
What kind of retribution is these words, for Long Chen, who witnessed the only relative in this world being forced to pieces, it is simply bullshit, as long as he lives for one day, as long as he has enough ability, he will definitely not let go of that black cavalry, and all the people who participated in the tragedy of Xinling Town! This is not an oath, but one thing that Long Chen has to do!
"This is the Misty Continent, the specific location will be known when you are older, don't ask me who I am, and don't ask why I saved you, these things are very troublesome to explain, in a few years I may tell you some reasons, of course, the premise is that you must have enough ability to return to the Continent from here. ”
Ye Ruxue's eyes were as quiet as an abyss and a deep pool staring at Long Chen and said, after speaking, a trace of a sudden glance crossed his eyes, and he realized that he seemed to talk a little more.
In fact, Ye Ruxue's original plan was to wait for the two children to wake up and observe them for a little before throwing them to Sang Yue, after all, it always takes a lot of time for such two children who have just lost their relatives to adapt to an unfamiliar environment, and he is really not very good at getting along with children.
It's just that Ye Ruxue really didn't expect these two children to calm down so quickly, especially Long Chen, he found that he couldn't see through what this child was thinking, not only did this child not show any panic, but he didn't even have a trace of sadness.
If it is said that this child is withdrawn by nature or stupid, it is obviously not, and he has already learned from Sang Yue in advance that Long Chen witnessed the scene of his relatives parting, so it is impossible to be so calm.
This kind of calmness is difficult for even adults to do, let alone a child who is only six years old? This makes Ye Ruxue inevitably have some interest in Long Chen, and unconsciously says more.
"Can't you even ask your name?"
Long Chen's words brought Ye Ruxue back to her senses, this ordinary question could not be more ordinary, but it made Ye Ruxue show a strange smile very abnormally, and replied lightly: "My surname is Ye, Ye of Green Leaves." ”
Ye Ruxue's seven words were said very lightly, but when they entered Long Chen's ears, they were in turmoil, because just now, he felt an invisible pressure from this green-robed man, so that he couldn't even breathe, let alone ask something again.
This invisible deterrence is like a bloodthirsty beast that has just woken up from sleep and opens its pupils slightly, warning a small animal that is trying to get close in vain and does not know the height of the sky, and Longchen is that little animal.
Ye Ruxue put away the smile on her face, her eyes swept over Long Chen and Qiangzi calmly, and said slowly: "You stay here for a few days, I will let Sang Yue teach you some basic knowledge about the Xuanshi, which is very important to meet your test in a few days, and remind you that this is directly related to whether the two of you can go back." ”
seemed to feel that her words were a bit too complicated for the two young children, Ye Ruxue added: "If you don't understand what I mean, you can ask her later." ”
At this moment, there was a soft squeak, and the small door of the wooden house was pushed open from the outside, and there was a sudden sound of wind like a ghost crying wolf, and a fierce cold wind surged in from outside the house, and the originally warm room suddenly became cold to the bone.
A petite and thin figure walked in from the white expanse of the house that could not be seen clearly, she was only wearing a thin black dress under such a heavy wind and snow outside, and her high ponytail was covered with ice crystals, but she was not stained with snow.
"I'll be back in ten days. ”
Ye Ruxue looked at the girl who had just entered the house, and after dropping a sentence, she turned around and walked out of the wooden house, flying like a green leaf and blending into the world outside the house, Sang Yue closed the small door of the wooden house, the sound of wind and snow disappeared in an instant, and the house became extremely quiet all of a sudden.
Hadron's physique has never been as good as Long Chen's, just now a gust of cold wind made his lips freeze blue, and his cheeks were also frozen into ice tears, trembling vigorously, although he believed what Long Chen said, knowing that his father and grandfather were dead, it didn't mean that he knew what to do next, after all, he was just a child less than seven years old.
Long Chen walked to the edge of the bed in the corner of the room in a few steps, picked up a quilt and draped it on Qiangzi, and then looked at the girl in the room who saved his life twice but was not a few years older than himself, and felt a little uncomfortable for no reason.
Maybe it's a man's self-esteem, or maybe it's the anger that still exists in his heart, angry that since this girl named Sang Yue saved herself and Qiangzi, why didn't she save Long Linyuan.
Long Chen didn't know how strong this girl named Sang Yue really was, but since this girl could prevent a worm king from killing herself, there would be absolutely no problem in dealing with a black cavalry who was just a beast master.
It's just that you really should hate this girl who is only a few years older than herself? Long Chen really wants to avoid this question, he wants to look at all this stubbornly and simply like a real child, at least he won't be trapped in contradictions like now, but this is impossible.
Although the eighteen years of experience in the last life can't make Long Chen think about everything like a real adult, it is enough for him to rationally admit a fact, if it weren't for this girl who rescued herself and died twice, why should he hate and be angry except for shouting at his father before he died?
Ye Ruxue left, and Long Chen no longer deliberately hid the true emotions in his heart, he looked up at this girl Sang Yue, whose name he had just known, and asked, "I only want to know one thing now, how long will it take for me to leave here and return to Nanluo Kingdom?"
"You want revenge?"
Sang Yue replied to the question, and her voice was as pleasant as a wind chime, which did not conform to her cold temperament of rejecting people thousands of miles away.
Hearing this, Long Chen's face suddenly became a little gloomy, and he asked coldly, "Shouldn't I take revenge?"
Sang Yue did not continue to express any opinion on this issue, she raised her hand and put it beside her waist, hesitated slightly, and finally put her hand down again, and said in a tone as if she was reciting: " Mr. Ye instructed me to teach you some basic knowledge about the mysteries, so I will come here to explain to you in the next ten days, if there is anything you don't understand, you can ask me more, but I will only answer three times, this is also the rule that Mr. Ye gave me, Mr. Ye will come here again in ten days, take you to another place, during this period you had better not leave this room, because it is very cold outside, I have seen thirty-two people frozen to death outside. ”
Speaking of this, Sang Yue's eyes revealed a faint warning, and said to Long Chen very seriously: "You won't freeze to death, but you will get lost and then starve to death." ”
Long Chen took a light breath and asked, "It means that in ten days, we will be thrown by that Mr. Ye to a place where we may die at any time, and if we can survive, we will be able to leave here, right?"
Sang Yue hesitated slightly, then nodded.
Long Chen sneered and asked, "Then can you tell me whether I am facing a ferocious beast, or a danger full of traps, or some people who will sneak up on me from time to time?" ”
Sang Yue blinked, looked at Long Chen curiously for nearly ten seconds, and only when he saw that Long Chen's face was about to turn black, he shook his head, then nodded again, and said, "What you said, it seems that there are and there are not, but Mr. Ye once said that those are not difficult trials." ”
Long Chen frowned slightly, "Then what is a difficult trial?"
Sang Yue replied softly: "Lonely." ”
