Chapter 0259: Jingjing's Decision
. Shumilou.CoM.Shumilou.Co
Leaving the place of exile is a wish that these people have never dared to touch in the depths of their hearts, but they don't want to suddenly come close to fulfilling it today, and everyone has become silent.
Silence is to hide the anxiety in your heart. Even Duan Sen was no exception, after being promoted to the Perfect Soul Master, the In-situ Star was his real stage, although it was good to be the king and hegemon in this exiled land, it was far less exciting than the outside world.
Xia Qingyang and Jingjing leaned against the cave wall and sat on the same stone.
Originally, Jingjing did not agree with Xia Qingyang to sit, because the stone was really not very big, but maybe it was because the target was getting closer and closer, or maybe because he had left the hill, Xia Qingyang felt relaxed, and his face became thicker, so he sat down with a dead face.
Jingjing protested a few words but was not very resolute, which was different from her performance on the hill, she was stubborn at that time, Xia Qingyang would never dare to go against her will.
Perhaps since the moment she agreed to follow Xia Qingyang down the mountain, Jingjing has taken a step back in the struggle with Xia Qingyang, or in the struggle with her past self, she has taken a step forward.
This step is to say goodbye to thousands of years of habits, thinking and lifestyle, which should be said to be an extremely important change, but Jingjing's decision seems to be very sudden and imprudent.
The initiator, Xia Qingyang, a person who most wanted her to change and worked hard for this purpose, didn't expect (in this case, Jingjing took this step herself.
Many things seem to be abrupt and difficult to explain, but in fact they happen for a reason.
Some things do not have the premise of happening, but they do happen, and there are actually traces to follow.
In Xia Qingyang's opinion, Jingjing's descent from the mountain seems unreasonable and does not conform to her consistent temperament and style.
But for Jingjing, there may only be one reason for going down the mountain, and that reason may just be a name, a word.
I have to say that Xia Qingyang is indeed a complete rookie in this regard.
Therefore, at this moment when he was most inappropriate to bring up this topic, he opened his mouth: "Jingjing, have you really decided to leave with me?"
Jingjing could only sit on one side because she was squeezed by Xia Qingyang, her body was a little skewed, and she couldn't support her chin with two hands, but she still tilted her head and stared at Xia Qingyang with a smile: "Xia Qingyang, I'm hungry." ”
"Oh, oh. Forget about it. Xia Qingyang hurriedly took out the mustard seed bag to eat, this is the dried meat that he pickled in his spare time, although it is not as good as freshly roasted, it is better than eating some wild fruits.
Because he was in a hurry to be courteous, his movements were inevitably a little bigger, and he almost squeezed Jingjing to the ground.
Xia Qingyang was in a hurry, reached out and grabbed Jingjing's waist, and grabbed Jingjing's arm with the other hand, although he successfully stabilized the two, the action was very ambiguous.
Jingjing's pretty face flushed a little, her hand held the jerky, turned her head, and frowned slightly: "Xia Qingyang, are you taking advantage of me?"
"yes. Xia Qingyang, who left the hills, actually felt less restrained and more religent, which was exactly what he lacked when he got along with girls before.
This abnormal behavior immediately aroused Jingjing's vigilance, and she tilted her head to look at Xia Qingyang suspiciously, as if she had seen him for the first time.
Thanks to Xia Qingyang, Jingjing is no longer the girl who knows nothing about the world, but her eyes have never been stained with the slightest dust of the world, and they are always so pure and clear that people can't bear to look at them at a glance, for fear that their filthy breath will pollute these eyes.
So when Jingjing stared at Xia Qingyang for a long time, Xia Qingyang immediately couldn't stand it, let go of his hand, and said seriously: "Eat, eat." ”
Perhaps because of the presence of many people, Jingjing did not show a normal amount of food, but stopped after eating a few pieces of dried meat, and looked at the underground space of the emperor's tomb with interest.
Seeing this, Xia Qingyang smiled and said, "Jingjing, when you break the formation for a while, can you be sure to deal with it?"
Jingjing didn't hear it, and got up from the rock, put her hands behind her back, and continued to enjoy the scenery by herself.
"Angry?" Xia Qingyang stood up with a smile and said in a low voice: "I'll compensate you anymore, what I'm talking about now is serious, you can't be sloppy, are you sure?"
"What's serious?" Jingjing didn't pretend not to hear this time, tilted her head and blinked a pair of big eyes, and asked quite innocently.
"Huh?" Xia Qingyang was stunned for a moment, then chuckled in his heart, and said secretly: It's bad! No wonder this aunt reacted like this, too, after she heard that she could leave this place, she just focused on this, but didn't ask Jingjing's opinion in advance, which is very inappropriate.
"Jingjing. Xia Qingyang knew that it was difficult to explain this, but he seemed to have suddenly opened his mind at this moment, and there were always many thoughts and ideas in his heart that he would never have been born before, which were both bold and exciting, and might have unexpected effects.
He suddenly stretched out his hand to pull Jingjing's body over, pressed Jingjing's shoulders with both hands, stared at Jingjing's eyes with straight eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Grandpa asked me two things before he died. ”
Although she was dissatisfied with Xia Qingyang's actions, when she heard him mention her grandfather, Jingjing also quieted down, but her eyes flickered, dodging Xia Qingyang's gaze.
"One is to take care of you and be your man. ”
Hearing this, Jingjing looked at Xia Qingyang suspiciously again, obviously quite suspicious of the second half of the sentence.
Xia Qingyang continued quietly: "The second thing is to try our best to maintain the safety of the Emperor's Tomb. ”
"Hmm. Jingjing was noncommittal.
"Getting these people out is the best and most fundamental solution, and the emperor and grandfather, as well as the old people in the emperor's tomb who are buried here, will no longer be disturbed. And the Exiled Lands have become no longer safe, and if you stay here, Grandpa may not be at ease. ”
"Hmm. Jingjing's expression was still faint.
Xia Qingyang saw it in his eyes, suddenly smiled, put aside all the thoughts and thoughts in his heart, and said sincerely: "Jingjing, I didn't ask for your opinion in advance, I did it wrong, I solemnly apologize to you again, if you don't want to work with them, let's discuss it again, I'm just worried about ???"
"I'm just worried about ???"
"You're just worried about ???" Jingjing suddenly continued: "I'm worried that I will suddenly change my mind." ”
"Hmm. Xia Qingyang honestly admitted.
"But I didn't decide to leave with you. ”
Xia Qingyang was stunned when he heard this, and then shook his head and smiled bitterly, his heart was very bitter.
"Xia Qingyang. Jingjing broke away from his hands, turned around and looked up at the tomb of the human emperor, and said slowly: "I understand your intentions, and I am also very grateful, maybe in your opinion, going down the mountain is an easy thing, but for me, it is extremely difficult." ”
"I understand. ”
"No, you don't understand, if you do, I won't go down the mountain with you, or even leave you on the mountain. ”
This is profound, Xia Qingyang didn't understand it for a while.
Jingjing didn't explain, and continued: "Xia Qingyang, I said that day that I don't like you, are you credible?"
Xia Qingyang nodded.
"I'm not someone I don't like you, I just don't like you in my life. ”
Xia Qingyang vaguely understood this, Jingjing was blaming herself for breaking the life she had insisted on for thousands of years, and perhaps, breaking her plan to follow her grandfather.
"I didn't expect to be able to willingly go down the mountain with you in a short period of time, and I'm afraid you didn't expect it either. But I haven't made a decision yet, I was born here, I have spent thousands of years here, my parents, grandfather and all my relatives and friends are buried here, and outside is a completely strange world, but I am not afraid of death, I am not afraid of loneliness. You say, what reason do I have to go out?"
Xia Qingyang originally wanted to say that he still had himself, but after thinking about what he said with Jingjing, he was afraid that he could not be compared with it now, so he was silent again.
After a short silence, Xia Qingyang looked at the woman in front of him who was pretending to be relaxed with her hands behind her back, and suddenly felt infinite pity, and said, "Jingjing, if you don't want to leave, I'll be here with you." ”
Jingjing Huo Ran turned around and stared at Xia Qingyang's eyes: "Xia Qingyang, are you coaxing me to be happy? Or are you playing tricks with me again?"
Xia Qingyang shook his head, he didn't feel unhappy because of Jingjing's questioning, his mood at this time was a little complicated, both regretful and relaxed, and even he couldn't figure out what it was like.
"Jingjing, you have heard all my stories, I have liked several girls, I have made vows, and even have a wife, but I have never loved someone as much as I love you. I'll admit it, I want to leave, but I can't bear to leave you here alone. ”
Jingjing was stunned for a long time, suddenly raised her hands and held Xia Qingyang's cheeks: "Xia Qingyang, even if you lie to me, I will admit it." ”
"I won't lie??? You, Jingjing, did you agree?" Xia Qingyang was ecstatic.
"Brother Xia??? The gas is gone. Boss Jin's voice came out of place.
Xia Qingyang was a little embarrassed, but Jingjing was very generous, took the initiative to take Xia Qingyang's hand and walked towards the pool.
Seeing this, Boss Jin secretly gave Xia Qingyang a thumbs up, after the incident in the Emperor's Tomb, he had a great relationship with Tan Lao, and naturally understood Tan Lao's love for Jingjing, and he was very happy to see her walk down the hill, and now that he has been entrusted, he is naturally even more pleased.
"Brother Jin, do it now?" Xia Qingyang walked to the edge of the waterhole and found that along the waterhole, there were dark lines, which were different from the color of the ground, and it should be the formation of the Nine Palaces Bagua Array.
Duan Sen also walked over at this time and said, "According to what Brother Jin said, once Chen Gong opens the secret door of the soul array, it can support about half an hour's effort, although the time is not short, but there are many people here, it is better to deploy it in advance, so as not to make a mess when you get it, and it will take time to waste time." ”
"That's very good. "Jin Lao naturally will not object, both of them have the ability to command, and such small things will be arranged quickly.
Next is the most critical formation, Xia Qingyang and Jingjing are in the middle palace position, and the others are also in place, Boss Jin briefly explained the responsibilities of each person, Xia Qingyang nodded to Jingjing, and said in a deep voice: "Let's start." ”
