Chapter 303, Xiaocan's brother
The man in the black mask faced the picture of Xiao Ling Xiaocan smiling at Xiao Yang Yunle just now, although the picture was still on the glass curtain wall, Ling Xiaocan's side face was still so charming, so that the man with the black mask suddenly found a trace of affection in his heart.
He remotely controlled the screen, and the screen jumped and continued to move.
----
Yang Yunle fell into the river because he didn't stand firmly, and he struggled desperately, but he didn't notice that the scene around him was changing.
This was no longer the stream he had come from, but the tearing of the stream had allowed him to cross to a river on the island of Flowerless.
But Yang Yunle's consciousness was a little blurry, and the river was up and down, so he choked on the water all the time, and he didn't have time to think at all.
He just felt that he might die in the next second.
There was a little boy on the bank of the river, who looked to be as big as Yang Yunle, who was washing his little socks by the river, when he was suddenly startled by the people rushing over in the river.
He tugged at his head to make sure that the man was still alive, and then cautiously walked down the river, intending to rescue him.
The little boy looks sturdy and watery, so he is not afraid. He walked into the river and pulled Yang Yunle and dragged him to the shore, but accidentally stumbled and fell back into the river.
The little boy didn't get up again, and Yang Yunle was also dragged into the water again.
After a while came a young couple, who seemed to be the boy's parents. The couple was also holding a little girl.
The girl's appearance was very cute, she first noticed the abnormality in the river, shook off the hands of her parents, and ran desperately to the river.
While running, he shouted desperately: "Brother, brother." ”
Unfortunately, the little boy in the river did not react.
The couple did not panic, but jumped into the river and crawled to the boy's side as hard as they could. The boy's head was facing out, red blood was spilling from the back of his head, and his eyes were wide open, apparently out of breath.
"Brother, what's wrong?" The little girl asked, looking at her parents, who were carrying the boy ashore.
The couple was already slumped on the floor, so sad that they couldn't speak. They looked at the cold corpse in amazement, and kept stroking it with their hands, wanting the child to feel the last bit of warmth in the world.
"My brother went far, far away." The man choked up a little at the little girl, "Xiaocan, you won't have a brother in the future." ”
He hugged the little girl in his arms and sobbed softly.
The little girl pointed to the child who was lying on the lawn on the other side of the river and was pulled ashore by her father, and innocently asked the man: "Dad, who is that little brother?" ”
The man wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said fiercely: "I don't know, I don't know......"
But his tone was clearly convinced that the little boy was the one who killed his son. But the little girl was too young to understand.
----------
"So, Ling Xiaocan's brother was killed by me, right?" Yang Yunle only understood when he saw this, and his emotions suddenly became excited.
"Yes, I tried to turn back time and space to save him, but unfortunately ......" The black-masked man's eyes lowered again, and he sighed heavily.
"What a pity?" Yang Yunle felt that it should be something that some black-masked men were helpless about, so he suddenly lost his soul.
"It's a pity that at the same point in time, it's either you who dies or he dies, and it can't be changed at all."
"So you sacrificed Ling Xiaocan's brother in order to save me?" Yang Yunle pushed back a few steps repeatedly, but he didn't expect that he himself was so greedy for life and afraid of death.
"Yes, so to speak, but if I don't save you, I won't be where I am now." Although the man in the black mask felt a little guilty in his words, he did not regret his decision.
"That means Ling Xiaocan's parents knew from the beginning that I was the boy who killed his son, right?"
Yang Yunle covered his mouth, he couldn't believe what kind of grief Ling's father and Ling's mother had to take him in and raise him.
"Yes, they knew it from the beginning, including Ling Xiaocan." The man in the black mask couldn't help but sigh at the mention of the name.
"They all know it, so how can they pretend that nothing happened?" Yang Yunle was a little incomprehensible, because from beginning to end, he didn't know that Ling Xiaocan had an elder brother, and he couldn't help but never hear them mention it, and he didn't even hear the neighbors around him talk about it.
"So, that's what they're trying to do." The black-masked man touched the ring more and more often, not knowing whether he was nostalgic for the past or constantly warning not to repeat the stupid past.
"Scheming?" Yang Yunle only felt that Ling Xiaocan's parents were really good to him, and even wanted to marry their daughter to him.
"Yes, if there is no purpose, why not generously admit that he once had a son and an elder brother, but still quietly go out to the river to burn paper every Qingming Festival."
The man in the black mask did get to the point, they really didn't need to hide it like this, but they had a feeling that there was no silver three hundred taels here.
"That'...... Why are they doing this? Yang Yunle looked at the man in the black mask with some puzzlement.
"I once heard a conversation between Ling's father and Ling's mother. Father Ling thinks that you are not a local, and it is very likely that you are an outsider who has crossed over, so they have also reported hope that you will be able to rescue their children when you grow up. ”
"As for Mother Ling, I think she is genuinely good to you."
After the man in the black mask finished speaking, he fell into deep thought again, and the floating gloom in his eyes made Yang Yunle afraid for a moment.
"Father Ling is so powerful, does someone already have the concept of crossing so early?"
Yang Yunle was a little skeptical, after all, the transportation was not developed at that time, and it was ridiculous to believe in the theory of crossing.
"That's right, because his father also traveled back from the future world, this is what I found out when I looked through his genealogy, of course, I didn't know about this matter Ling Xiaocan."
The man in the black mask has one thing to say, this is a big matter, Ling Xiaocan can also be regarded as a big girl, if she knows about it, the consequences will definitely be unimaginable.
"I have one more question."
Yang Yunle paused, and suddenly remembered that he had received an email in Shandao before, explaining that the current Wang Ma was not Ling Xiaocan's biological mother, which meant that Ling's father and Ling's mother on Flowerless Island were most likely not Ling Xiaocan's biological parents.
"Are they Ling Xiaocan's biological parents?"
Yang Yunle naturally couldn't verify this kind of thing from the sensitive Ling Xiaocan before, but since there was a ready-made one in front of him, what was the point of asking.
"I don't know, I want to know the answer, I always thought they weren't, but I didn't find out who was her real parent, and her identity was also a mystery."
