Chapter Eighty-Eight: If I Die
No matter how beautiful a match made in heaven, it can't match the four words of life and death.
Whether it's a person or a thing.
An ornate tent stands in the middle of the tribe.
Whether it is a magnificent curtain or a fine carpet, it shows the high status of the owner here.
There was a small window on one side of the tent that gave you a view of the verdant grassland outside.
Lin Yinping leaned on the soft collapse next to the window, and the sunlight came in through the window and fell on her. The very pale face is reflected by the sun, showing a vague and poignant luster, like a dream.
Akiba sat on the pear wood bench beside him, looking at her quietly, and a faint breath of fresh air continued to pour into her body from his hands.
Lin Yinping's eyelashes blinked slightly, woke up from his slumber, and said softly: "These days, thank you for the real person." ”
Autumn leaves said calmly: "It's okay, it's a matter of internal affairs." ”
Lin Yinping gasped weakly for a while, and it seemed that saying a word also made her pay a lot of strength. Then, I don't know what I remembered, and I looked out the small window, and a continuous green sky emerged, bringing a bit of relief to the dreary tent.
She is not a person with a high realm, she can't see through life and death, and she doesn't even have the determination to work as desperately as Xiao Yu, regardless of the princess's luxurious appearance, she is just an ordinary girl.
She looked out the window and remembered a lot, a lot of good things that she hadn't noticed before.
People always wait until they are about to lose it, and then they are in a hurry to cherish it?
She thought that she used to not like horseback riding, nor herding, and was not at all like a girl on the steppe. But her greatest wish now is to go to the grassland, ride a horse along the stream, and walk slowly.
When I was a child in the royal court, my mother always liked to see the big lake in autumn, there was a lush forest by the lake, and the fallen leaves fell on the ground and fell on the lake, while my mother was always silent, her brows furrowed, as if she was missing something.
But my father didn't like it, and he always said that when the leaves fell, autumn came, and the pastures were gone, and the cattle and sheep were going to starve to death, and the people were to take up scimitars, take bows and arrows on their backs, and ride their horses to the south.
Her mother died when a leaf fell, and she lay in bed like this, looking out the window, falling asleep and never waking up.
Just like her now, Lin Yinping thought, maybe the next time she sleeps, she will never wake up again.
The sun fell on her body, warm, the kind of warmth that made people want to sleep unconsciously.
Spring, the beginning of the year, but in this spring she lost her father, lost everything, and now even she is going to die.
The gloom of life is concentrated in this bright spring.
"Don't think about it, Xiao Yu will go get you medicine. Will be back soon. ”
Akiba said calmly. Whether it was out of utilitarianism or unbearable, in short, he still comforted Lin Yinping.
Lin Yinping looked out the window in a daze, not knowing what to say. She knew that Xiao Yu was not by her side these days, but she didn't know where she went, and suddenly listening to Qiu Ye's words, she couldn't help but feel a little sweet. Mixed with the sweetness of worry.
In this spring that made her feel desperate, there was still someone standing by her side, which was really good, like a spring breeze that blew away the residual cold of winter.
Her face grew paler, but her dark eyes were brighter than ever.
In a trance, she seemed to see the first time she saw him in the eastern capital of Meitai, and then the second encounter in Qiutai.
Then the grassland walked along the embankment of the Qinghe River, bit by bit on the shore of the unknown small lake in the West River Plain.
Later, when he encountered a horse thief, he rushed out with her on his back, and the two wandered on the grassland. When he came to Daxue Mountain, when he faced Zhang Xueyao at the top of the mountain, he stood in front of her.
These were recalled by her at the moment when she was hit by Huang Kui, but they were not as real as this time.
There is a small sapling not far from the window, and there are generally no trees on the grassland except for a few places.
I don't know who transplanted it here, maybe the harsh environment made it look wilted.
Lin Yinping looked at the young sapling and said, "It's really like." ”
Autumn is the season for falling leaves, but I don't know if it's because the sapling is too weak or because the spring wind is too strong, a leaf is blown up by the wind, leaves the branches in the spring, and then falls flutteringly.
Lin Yinping stared at this leaf that should not have fallen now, and a touch of sadness appeared.
The leaves are not yet yellow, and they are about to fall, so what about her?
She didn't expect that when everything seemed to be going to be fine, God played such a big joke on her.
She gets punched by a pervert, and then she's going to die.
What a drama, she kind of wanted to cry.
"You don't want me to die, do you, you need a princess to oppose the princess. ”
"I don't want to die. I used to be angry and unwilling, but in the end, there was only peace. If you have parents, a husband, and a child, that kind of world must be better than the Buddha's Blissful World. ”
"I regret knowing him, and if we had known him earlier, maybe it would have been different. Maybe I'm not a princess, just a mediocre woman, and that's the really good days. ”
Akiba was silent, he was not good at comforting others, and the sentence just now was already the extreme.
Lin Yinping still looked out the window, immersed in his world of good memories, and said to himself: "It's very unrealistic, isn't it, if I dare to let go of all this and let go of the big tree of Dao Sect, it will definitely fall into the hands of that woman, and life will be more painful than death." ”
Autumn leaves are still silent.
Lin Yinping was gasping for breath very quickly.
After a long time, Lin Yinping slowly calmed down, her face was a little rosy, and she continued: "I don't know why, I fell in love with him in a daze, and if I told him anything, he would always stand in front of me." But the time is really too short, only three months...... I'm so reluctant. ”
"Akiba Zhenren, after I die, you can find a stand-in or something, can you let him worship the Taoist Sect? His family can't tolerate him, and there are so many enemies outside......
These words are really like last words, Akiba is used to seeing life and death, and doesn't care much, just silently acting as a listener.
Seeing that Qiu Ye ignored him, Lin Yinping smiled bitterly at himself, and then took out the jade pendant from his chest with difficulty, and said seriously: "If I die, give it to him, and tell him that I am afraid we can't go together in the future." ”
"Of course, if I don't die, remember to give it back to me. ”
She gently put the jade pendant on the pillow, and this simple action seemed to exhaust the strength of her whole body. She closed her eyes weakly, and the greenery outside the window and the beauty in her mind all faded, leaving only this dreary tent.
Akiba slowly spoke, "I can hold on for fifty days." ”
Lin Yinping's fingertips trembled slightly, and a little crystal slipped from the corner of his eye.
PS: Originally, there was no such chapter in the original plan, it should be mainly Xiao Yu's Dongduxing, just because I saw that XP was officially retired in fifty days after it was launched today, and I only used this chapter to mourn XP that was about to leave us.
