Chapter Twenty-Seven: Waiting in Silence
A large group of people gathered around the door of Shirou's house, most of them were not strong, only stellar low-level.
Several people raised the weapons in their hands and shouted: "Shi Yonghao, you old immortal don't get out yet, now the whole world is in chaos, do you think you are still the business tycoon you were at the beginning, in a high position, and you do what you say?"
"Hmph, I used to send you for a meager salary every month, and treat you like a dog, but now I finally don't need it, no matter how much money I have, the world will be destroyed, and if I don't get back all the money I received before, I will die and I will not be reconciled. ”
The people outside the villa kept shouting, but the villa was quiet, the lights were still on, but no one answered, and the door was closed.
Lin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, these people were only stellar low-level, with Shi Yonghao's cultivation, there was no need to be afraid of them at all, he unfolded the Void Technique and disappeared in place in an instant, and then appeared directly in the villa.
The villa is very large, the furnishings are luxurious, Shi Yonghao is sitting on the sofa, his expression is vicissitudes, his temples are already white, which is very different from what Lin Xiao saw back then, it is like he is twenty years old, and the whole thing reveals a dull and gloomy atmosphere, and his expression is gloomy.
Moreover, Shi Yonghao seemed to be in a trance, and he didn't even know that Lin Xiao came in him, until Lin Xiao walked in front of him, he suddenly woke up, and subconsciously waved a palm.
Lin Xiao took a step back, used Tai Chi to resolve Shi Yonghao's palm power, and said, "Uncle." ”
Shi Yonghao was stunned for a moment, then sat back on the sofa, lit a cigar and handed it to Lin Xiao, seeing Lin Xiao waving his hand without smoking, he took a puff and said, "Why are you here?"
"I'm coming to see Shirou. Lin Xiao stood quietly in place and said, "You also know the current situation, I just want to come and see her before going to war with alien mechanical creatures." ”
Shi Yonghao didn't speak, he smoked his cigar silently, the smoke rose up, covering his face, and he didn't sigh until halfway through, and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to see her." He turned and walked into the back room, his steps heavy.
Lin Xiao suddenly had a very ominous premonition in his heart, clenched his fists, and walked behind Shi Yonghao, behind the living room were several side by side rooms, Shi Yonghao pushed open a door, and then walked in.
There are many medical instruments in the room, large and small, almost all over the room, a large bed covered with white sheets is surrounded by various instruments, and Shirou is lying on the bed, her eyes closed, her face pale and a little gloomy.
"How can this be?" Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment, as if he had been hit by a thunderbolt on a sunny day, his mind was blank, and his eyes were only Shirou who was lying quietly on the hospital bed, and his pale and thin cheeks made him feel very distressed and distressed, like a needle prick.
"You stay with her, there's not much time left. Shi Yonghao turned around and stood on the edge of the bed, and from this angle, he could see that his eyes were red.
Mu Ran walked to the edge of the hospital bed, Lin Xiao felt that his heart was dripping blood, unspeakable pain, he stretched out his hand and gently touched Shi Rou's cheek, feeling cold, which startled him, knowing that he was relieved to perceive Shi Rou's weak heartbeat, something suddenly flowed out of his eyes, and it was moist.
"How can this be?" Lin Xiao muttered to himself, and suddenly slapped himself fiercely, "I should have found out when I saw you in Yangzhou City, you were also pale at that time, and the bodyguards at home were so anxious to worry about you, if you want you to go home, there must be something to hide from me, and you won't tell me anything?"
He held Shirou's hand tightly and felt the familiar breath, his whole heart was empty, and he wanted to roar loudly: "It's been ten years, and now I can finally really stand in front of you, and tell you why you have become like this when I love you, protect you, and give you happiness, it's my fault, it's all my fault, I haven't come to see you for so long, I haven't really accompanied you, I have gone shopping with you, watched the stars, and eaten"
Lin Xiao sat on the edge of the hospital bed, his heart was full of remorse, he originally thought that even if the world was destroyed and the world was destroyed, they could still spend this last period of time together, but now, the heaven and the earth were not destroyed, and the Yiren were already haggard.
Suddenly, Shirou's eyelashes fluttered, and she slowly opened her eyes, her pupils were a little dilated, and it took a long time to become clear, looking at Lin Xiao, no excitement, no surprise, and said with a calm and gentle smile: "I knew you would come, you know? I just dreamed of you, dreaming that we walked together on the vast grassland, fished in the blue sea, and watched the stars on the highest rooftop until dawn." ”
Lin Xiao's voice choked, and said: "Well, I'm here, I will never leave you again, I will accompany you for a walk, accompany you to go fishing, accompany you to watch the stars, do anything." ”
"It's a pity I don't have time. Shirou suddenly frowned slightly, and her face turned even paler, as if saying these few words consumed too much strength.
"No, you have a good rest, I'll take you there when you get better, and I'll always be with you. Lin Xiao felt a pain in his heart, held Shi Rou's arm and input the energy of the secret method of forging the body into Shi Rou's body, he is now in Nirvana for eight turns, and the energy of Nirvana is all the qi of death, which is not suitable for conditioning the body, so he can only use the secret method of forging the body.
Although the energy conditioning body cultivated by the body forging secret method is not as good as the power of life, it is also of great benefit after all, making Shirou's face slightly ruddy, she looked at Lin Xiao, and suddenly burst into tears, but smiled softly, and said: "Don't be sad, I like you and don't want anything from you, I know that you love me enough, if there is really an afterlife, I will still watch you silently like this, wait for you, and do everything I can for you." ”
Sometimes, love is complicated, and other times it's very simple, simple and distressing, simple and almost stupid!
Ten years, Lin Xiao and Shirou's time together is very short, he never even thought that there would be such a girl in another corner of the world silently waiting for him, praying, and the only hope is that he is safe and happy, and even when he is about to die, he still does not ask for even a little bit of return.
Perhaps, this is love, no suspicion, no taking, no jealousy, simple, innocent and clean that people can't help but cry.
Lin Xiao cried, tears flowed down like a broken embankment, he had never regretted it for a moment like now, he couldn't wait to turn back time, even if he gave up his life, he wanted to make this girl healthy and happy.
He took Shirou's hand, helped her gently wipe away her tears, and said: "If you can give me another chance, I hope we can swap it, let you fly freely, let me wait silently, maybe then I won't be as heartbroken as I am now, and my heart will be as heartbroken as this." ”
Shirou panicked suddenly, struggled to get up, and cried: "Don't be sad, I want you to be happy, I want you to be happy forever, you must promise me, even if I am gone, you will live happily, for yourself and for me, okay?"
"Well, I promise you, I promise you. Lin Xiao felt like a whole world had collapsed in his heart, full of gloom and hollowness, and his whole heart was shattered, and it was uncomfortable to pull.
After saying a few words, Shirou's face became pale again, she was short of breath, she grabbed Lin Xiao's arm tightly, and it took a long time to exhale, and she said weakly: "I didn't tell you before, my body has been weak since I was a child, so I can't cultivate, and then my body is getting worse and worse, and the more I dare not tell you." ”
Shirou cried as she spoke, "But the more I don't dare to tell you, the more I miss you, I can't sleep when I think about you, I don't know why I think about you, I feel pain in my heart when I think about you, I don't dare to go to you, I'm afraid, I'm afraid that you will see me like this." ”
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became sad, with a deep pain dissipating, the clamor outside the villa seemed to be gone away all of a sudden, and only Shirou's face appeared in front of Lin Xiao's eyes in the whole world, becoming clearer and clearer.
"Lin Xiao" Shirou took Lin Xiao's hand and suddenly begged: "Can you take me to see the grassland and the sea?"
"Hmm. Lin Xiao nodded, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and gently hugged Shirou.
At this moment, a huge explosion suddenly sounded outside the villa, and a strong shock wave penetrated directly into the sky.
Lin Xiao's eyes flashed, he protected Shi Rou with a three-day monument, carried her through the firelight, and walked out of the villa, outside the villa, Shi Yonghao looked embarrassed, and there was a wisp of blood hanging from the corner of his mouth, and a group of people who were originally surrounding the villa all retreated far away, only a tall bald man stood in the courtyard, facing Shi Yonghao.
The bald man was naked, and the tattoo was like a picture engraved on his body, hideous and terrifying, he touched the top of his bare head, and smiled evilly: "Shi Yonghao, I will give you a chance now, marry your daughter to me, and teach your father-in-law respectfully, when the time comes, we will be a family, and I will try my best to help take care of your business and honor you." ”
"Foolish dreams. Shi Yonghao snorted coldly and said, "If it weren't for the imminent invasion of alien creatures, and most of the masters had gone to the moon base, would you think that with your cosmic-level second-order cultivation, the third-rate strength of the Red Demon Mercenary Group would be able to do whatever it wanted?"
The bald man smiled disapprovingly: "Are alien creatures so easy to deal with?" Even if they can drive away alien creatures, I'm afraid that few people will be able to get out of the way, so they have to go to the moon base and join some volunteer team. ”
"But it's good that he's stupid, otherwise it wouldn't be my turn to be free. The bald man swaggered forward, and said with a smile: "Now that all the masters are gone, as far as your stellar peak strength can be useful, it is better to be obedient, why bother to be brave for a while?"
