Chapter 10: Tears in Dreams
"Whew!" a straight fist slammed into Dugu Yi's face.
Dugu Yi bowed down and squatted down before his fist touched him, and then quickly bounced up again, hitting the guy's lower abdomen with his head, Dugu Yi, who had not yet learned any martial arts, completely defused the punch with instinctive movements.
"Ah......h
It was the first time since he could remember that he had confronted an adult head-on, so he was stunned when he saw the guy go limp, and in just a few seconds, another guy punched him in the back.
Although Dugu Yi endured the pain and did not scream, his slender body still fell forward, and at this time, the gold coin that Chang Jun gave him also flew out of his arms, shining with a seductive golden light in the air and in the sun.
"Poof!" Dugu Yi fell to the ground and raised a cloud of dust, but no one looked at him, and everyone's eyes turned with the gold coins in the air.
When the fat man saw the gold coin, his eyes turned and his brain moved, and he opened his mouth and scolded: "Good little brute, you not only injured my brother, but also stole the gold coins I asked him to buy things......"
Hearing the sound, the thin monkey's reaction was not slow, and he pretended to grope around his body, and then saw Dugu Yi lying on the ground who seemed to have no strength to fight back, so he jumped over angrily and scolded: "It turns out that your kid is not a beggar, but a thief...... Ah, no, it's a robber. ”
Dugu Yi got up from the ground slowly, and instead of looking at the fat brother who was scolding, he looked around; in the eyes of these onlookers, Dugu Yi saw suspicion, contempt, and even disgust, and none of the dozens of people believed that this gold coin belonged to him.
Dugu Yi slowly retracted his gaze, shook his head and smiled bitterly, turned to the fat man, and said coldly: "Just for a mere gold coin, you will reverse black and white, and your personality is only worth this gold coin." ”
"Stealing our money and daring to talk nonsense. The fat man rolled up his sleeves and walked towards Dugu Yi. "I must teach you a good lesson today. ”
"I see that you were blinded in your right eye because you did something bad. The skinny monkey also walked out like his eldest brother.
Looking at the four people who came over viciously, Dugu Yi also knew that he had to suffer today, but he still had no intention of escaping. If he escapes now, doesn't it mean that his gold coin was stolen? Dugu Yi no longer wants to be like before, as long as he can live, he doesn't care about anything. You can not have dignity before, but now you can't do without it, and if you want to meet Qin Qin in the future, even if it is for her, you can't have a disgusting reputation.
Although Dugu Yi is now a third-level martial artist, however, he was still an ordinary beggar before last night, and he has not yet learned any martial arts, how can he be the opponent of four adults, what happened next can be imagined, after dodging a few punches, the twelve-year-old boy was pressed to the ground by the four, followed by a ruthless and cruel punch and kick.
A few minutes later, Dugu Yi was beaten to death by four people, and none of the onlookers came up to dissuade them, these people looked at the slender body under the fist with indifferent eyes all the time, and none of them even showed a trace of sympathy, in their minds, Dugu Yi was a thief, such a person died innocently;
"Let's see if you dare to steal in the future. The fat man finally kicked Dugu Yi, who was already unconscious, and then picked up the gold coin that was still shining with gold on the ground, and said to the other three: "Don't kill him, I still have to open a shop to do business, throw him away." ”
Hearing this, the three of them stopped their fists and kicks, and the two guys consciously pulled up Dugu Yi's hands and dragged the unconscious teenager to the uninhabited alley.
At this point, those onlookers slowly dispersed, and today's incident may not even be enough to be a conversation point for them to chat, but it has deeply changed a teenager. Not to mention being slandered as a thief, robbed of gold coins, and being injured, this black-and-white upside-down world has attached a layer of frost to Duguyi's cold heart.
At the beginning of the lanterns, the laughter from the tavern made the city as noisy as it was during the day, and no one would notice Dugu Yi, who was still sleeping in the dark alley, and the cold wind blew on him and turned it into a sharp knife, wantonly cutting the scars left by the day, even if he was unconscious, he could not escape the invasion of this severe pain.
"Hiss......"
Dugu Yi finally had a voice under her purple-black lips, and her tightly closed eyelids jumped a few times before they finally lifted, and from noon to now, Dugu Yi, who had been asleep for ** hours, was finally awakened by the pain.
"Ahem!" A light cough that is very easy for ordinary people to do made Dugu Yi's whole body twitch for nearly a minute, lying on the cold stone road, he wanted to move to the grass next to him, but he couldn't drive his body.
"I thought I was used to the pain, but I didn't expect it to be like this...... It's unbearable. ”
Dugu Yi, who even opened his mouth and felt pain in his heart, could only think so in his heart, and now only his mind and only eyeball could move. Dugu Yi tries to think of some unrealistic things, tries to sink into the fantasy world in order to numb his senses, in order to forget the pain.
"If Qin Qin saw this miserable appearance, I don't know what she would think, and whether she would be disappointed and ......"
The pictures that flashed in his mind included memories of the past and reverie for the future, people, things, and things flashed in his mind, but the most thought was the mysterious Qin Qin who he had only recently met.
Although he couldn't completely forget the pain, as his thoughts flew away, Dugu Yi also fell asleep again. This time he was asleep, and he also had a dream: under the dark sky, a huge palace was being engulfed in raging fire, and in the palace there was a very beautiful woman in white half-kneeling on the ground, her arms hugged him tightly and lay on her arms tightly The handsome man covered in blood was also tightly holding the back of the woman's hand, however, what was different from the action was the expression on the faces of the two, calm and indifferent, and even indifferent and cold.
"Why did you betray me?"
It should have been an angry question, but there was no trace of anger in the man's tone, no trace of blame and doubt, and the flat and empty voice seemed to be asking a question that had nothing to do with him at all.
The woman didn't answer the man's question, but hugged the man whose breath was getting weaker and weaker, and only the crystal droplets of water dripped from her expressionless cheeks into the man's clothes, and finally melted into the man's blood.
"I'm dead, are they really going to give you what you want?" the man spoke again, his voice still hollow.
"Do I want it? You and they don't know what I really want. The woman finally spoke, her soft and pleasant voice carrying infinite loneliness and loneliness, as well as sadness that could not be filled.
The man also knew that his time was running out, but after listening to the woman's words, he was silent for a long time before speaking again: "I can't understand it, and I can't get it by betraying it, so why do I do it?"
"I know you can't understand it, because you didn't have ...... in the first place," the woman shouted out with some excitement, but in the end she suppressed all her emotions and said lightly the words that had not been spoken before. "Although you are the Demon Emperor who rules the Demon Realm, there are too many things you don't understand, even if you are by my side every day, but you don't have me in your heart, no one...... Otherwise, it wouldn't have happened tonight. ”
"I still don't know why. The man's hollow voice rang out again.
The woman took a deep breath to calm her restless mind, and said calmly: "The peace between you and me, this is what they and I got tonight, and I used your death...... In exchange. ”
“...... Turns out you're all tired of it. This was the last voice of the man, and the woman's 'answer' was something he could understand, but it also completely annihilated his desire for 'life', and when the words fell, the last bit of life breath disappeared from his body.
The woman quietly looked at her pale but calm face, and it took a long time before she moved again, lowered her head and kissed the man lightly on the lips, and whispered to herself: "Kill, destroy, terrify, haze...... It should be able to disappear for a while......"
It was clear that she was saying a 'good thing', but there was only sadness and loneliness in the woman's voice, and her voice became weaker and weaker, and when she said the last word, she gently let go of the jade hand that had been holding the man, and stood up softly and slowly as if she was afraid of waking up a sleeping person.
Under the darkness of the night, beside the blazing fire, a man and a woman separated by life and death, this is the last picture Dugu Yi saw, and this picture has also become his memory engraved in his mind.
"It's just a dream, why is it so real?Whose dream is this, is it a memory from the past, or a foreshadowing of the future?" Dugu Yi muttered and woke up from the dream. Even in a dream, even if it was someone he didn't know at all, Dugu Yi's heart was deeply stung by the woman's bitter voice.
A very short dream, a very simple conversation, but there are things that Dugu Yi can't let go: why did this pair of men and women appear in his dream, and the most unacceptable thing for Dugu Yi is the tears left in the corners of his eyes, he doesn't understand who these tears are for?
"It's just a dream, why is it so real?"
