Chapter 17: The Truth
"How, have you figured it out?" Lu Qing looked at Hua Wuji, who was struggling, and asked.
Hua Wuji, who had fought countless mental battles, said after countless cycles of clenching his fists and letting go, "You can draw." ”
After saying these three short words, he seemed to lose his strength, and the whole person sat down on the stone chair.
Even a day and a night of fighting the most ferocious enemy would not make him so powerless, which shows the determination behind these three words.
"Okay."
After Lu Qing finished speaking, he used his fingers as a pen to engrave the face of the mysterious man that night on the stone table.
After carving, he looked at Hua Wuji, whose face was already bloodless and his eyes were scattered, and the answer was already self-evident.
The truth is often brutal, because not only does it not have any disguise, but it also tears through any disguise and puts the bloody reality in front of the person.
At this moment, Hua Wuji's inner struggle and despair, I'm afraid no one can empathize.
Originally, he was so proud, he was the heir of the Shifting Flower Palace in the Holy Land of Martial Arts, and he was a flawless son who became famous at a young age, but at this moment it has become a joke and a chess piece.
What makes him desperate the most is that everything about him is fake!
His name, his identity, his background, and even the love he only had for his two aunts were all fake!
Hua Wuji's heart was full of excitement, a breath of true qi in his chest was stagnation, the internal force in the eight veins of the Qi Jing was surging like a flood, and the whole body was torn and painful, like the punishment of Ling Chi with a thousand knives.
But he didn't react, not only did he not cry out in pain, but he didn't even frown.
Just because the pain in his body was far less than the pain in his heart, his heart felt as if it was dead.
If the heart is dead, how can a man live?
Hua Wuji, who was already hanging by a thread, couldn't help muttering: "What about me? Who am I? ”
"You are you!" Lu Qing, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "Even if you are nothing, not the heir of the Flower Shifting Palace, not the flawless son who moves the rivers and lakes, or even the flower flawless, you are still you." ”
"It's Yulang Jiang Feng's son, and it's Xiao Yu'er's brother!"
Hua Wuji, who was already dying, seemed to have life again, and he couldn't help but whisper: "Yes! I am who I am! Even if I'm not a flower, I'm still me! I'm also a brother to Little Fish! ”
"Little fish! Little fish! Where are the little fish?! ”
Thinking of Xiao Yu'er, Hua Wuji's heart was full of hope again, and he couldn't help asking, "Can you tell me, where is Xiao Yu'er?" ”
Lu Qing shook his head and replied, "I don't know where he is now, I won't show up until he thinks about it himself." ”
Hua Wujian smiled bitterly when he heard this, he knew why Xiao Yu'er was hiding, and he also knew what kind of struggle Xiao Yu'er had fallen into.
He said guiltily: "It's all my fault! It's all my fault! If it weren't for me......"
"I don't blame you." Lu Qing said: "Xiao Yu'er is too self-righteous and likes to play some clever tricks, and sooner or later he will suffer a big loss." ”
"Even if there is no flower without defects, there will be Li Wujian and Wang Wujian to let him recognize the reality."
Then he persuaded again: "You don't have to worry about Xiao Yu'er, since he can grow up safely in a place like the Valley of the Wicked, then don't try to defeat him with any setbacks." ”
Hearing this, Hua Wuqian asked again, "He must have suffered a lot in the Valley of the Wicked." ”
Lu Qing smiled and said, "Then it depends on what you think." ”
"If you say that there is a lot of physical pain, although he is only fifteen years old, he has ninety, if not a hundred, scars on his body."
"But he at least has someone who is genuine to him."
"With me, there is Wan Chunliu, and even kill their notorious ten wicked people, although they have ulterior motives, they are much more sincere to Xiaoyu'er than your two aunts are to you."
"But what about you?" Lu Qing said again: "Although you don't have to do your best to survive, who really treats you?" ”
"How can there be fewer scars in your heart than the scars on Xiao Yu'er's body?"
Lu Qing sighed and said, "So, the two of you have your own pain, but at least now you haven't reached the point of no return, haven't you?" ”
After listening to Hua Wuji, she was sad and joyful, guilty and happy, and all kinds of emotions were mixed together, with mixed tastes.
He didn't doubt what Lu Qing said, just as Lu Qing believed him, he also believed that Lu Qing would never disdain to lie.
"What's next for you?" Lu Qing asked again.
"I don't know." Hua Wujian replied: "I just want to go to the Flower Shifting Palace with Xiao Yu'er now, to ask them why they are doing this, and to ask them what they think of me." ”
"Then you can stay here first." Lu Qing suggested.
Hua Wujian shook her head and replied, "Iron Maiden is alone now, and I have to take care of her." ”
Even if he knew that saying this might make Lu Qing unhappy, because the relationship between Tie Xinlan and Xiao Yu'er was extraordinary, he still had to say it.
Just because he thinks so in his heart, he can't deceive Lu Qing, whether he is a perfect flower or not, he doesn't disdain to lie.
It's just because this is not a choice he made because of his identity, but his innate cultivation formed his heart.
"Okay." Lu Qing nodded and didn't say much.
"The juniors have taken their leave." Hua Wujian bowed to Lu Qing and turned to leave.
Looking at Hua Wuji, who was only fifteen or sixteen years old, Lu Qing couldn't help but sigh, he should have been an older child, and he should have the innocence of a child, but he endured the pain that even adults could not bear.
Not only him, but also Xiao Yu'er?
Although that little ghost giggles every day, is the pain in his heart really less than the scars on his body?
The pain these two children endured is beyond anyone's comprehension.
Thinking of this, Lu Qing couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"Why are you sighing?"
Murong Jiu, who didn't know when he appeared, suddenly asked.
Lu Qing replied: "I just feel a little emotional. ”
"What do you feel?" Murong Jiu asked again.
Lu Qing smiled and said, "You must not offend a woman, because the way a woman retaliates is too terrible!" ”
"Humph!" Murong Jiujiao snorted and said with a slight warning: "It's good that you know!" ”
When Lu Qing heard her mean words, she couldn't help but laugh and joked: "It's not a good habit to eavesdrop on others. ”
Murong Jiu's face turned red when he heard this, and he denied it in a coquettish voice: "Who ...... Who eavesdropped! ”
"Oh? I don't know who stood outside the hospital for so long, it's weird. Lu Qing pretended to be pensive.
As soon as these words came out, Murong Jiu's cheeks were even redder like delicate begonias, but he still quibbled: "This is my home!" Stand wherever I want! Stand as long as you want! ”
After she finished speaking, she ran away without a trace, as if she did not dare to stay any longer.
Lu Qing looked at Murong Jiu, who had fled in the wilderness, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with a light smile.
