Chapter Twenty-Three: Night Talk

"Senior brother, the beggar in the firewood room is dead, we are investigating this matter, you and I can go and have a look." Zi Xuan looked at Lin Fan with a complicated expression and said.

"I know, I killed it."

Zi Xuan nodded clearly, and didn't say much, when the two entered the firewood room, Ling Sha ran to Lin Fan's side, rubbed the blood on the soles of her shoes on the ground in disgust, and said to Lin Fan: "Why did you come down, you slept so deeply, did you see, the beggar died, even his heart was dug out and eaten, I didn't think there was such an ogre here." ”

"Where's Cheng Pu?" Zi Xuan saw that Cheng Pu was not in the firewood room, so he asked.

"Cheng Pu's waste dim sum and I drank too much at night, and now I'm still sleeping, I can't wake up no matter how I call it, don't talk about him, let's find out who did it, it's ruthless enough, this small Daoxiang Village is actually a place where the dragon and the tiger are hidden, and there are really all kinds of ghosts." Jiang Yun replied while thinking about it.

"That's... Don't check, I killed the person. Lin Fan said with a gloomy face and some embarrassment.

As soon as these words came out, except for Zixuan, everyone in the room looked at Lin Fan with a shocked face, and Ling Sha subconsciously distanced herself from Lin Fan. The eyes of everyone and the actions of Lingsha made Lin Fan's heart a little tingling.

"Okay, boy, good job! If I'm not mistaken, this is the first time you've killed someone, hahahahaha, congratulations, eliminating harm for the people is the first step of chivalry, go and drink with me to celebrate. Jiang Yun was the first to come back to his senses, walked up to Lin Fan and patted him on the shoulder and said.

Then seeing that Lin Fan was unmoved, he continued: "What are you doing with a straight face? What, the first killing is a little uncomfortable? What's the big deal about killing someone, it's a matter of being born twice and being familiar twice. ”

"Senior brother, although I know that it is the first time you have experienced such a thing, it is inevitable that there will be some gloom in your heart, but people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes, don't think too much, this kind of thing is inevitable." Su Rong also walked over and comforted softly.

Zi Xuan let out a long sigh and said slowly: "He is also innocent, you don't have to blame yourself too much." ”

"The beggar told me, when we arrive in Hangzhou and take him into custody, when the limelight passes, someone in the beggar gang will naturally come over to get money to help him dredge up the relationship, and then he can still get away with it and continue to do whatever he wants, Wang Tianming was because of my hesitation, which led to Zhang Ling's tragic death, and I can't and don't want the tragedy to happen again." Lin Fan explained.

"Alas, you have been tricked, according to the laws of the imperial court, kidnapping, mutilating and selling children. Tong's, all of them were executed by Ling Chi, he knew what his fate was, so he deliberately provoked you, and wanted to die happily, but it doesn't matter, it doesn't make sense to say this now, I know that you have been stimulated by the matter of Guyu Village, but I hope you will not be blinded by hatred and stifle your kindness, you are a little extreme now, this killing method is a little too cruel. Zi Xuan said earnestly.

"Senior brother, do you think I like to kill people very much? I use the most brutal method, precisely because I am afraid, and I want to overcome the fear in my heart, you know the struggle in my heart? Including that time in the jungle, you said that I tortured and killed the robber, it was not that I was playing with him and torturing him, it was that I couldn't kill him, I never explained, because I was afraid that you would laugh at me for being cowardly. Lin Fan was dissatisfied with Zixuan's preaching, and subconsciously became angry at Zixuan, and defended aggrievedly.

"It's... I see. Zi Xuan was stunned when he heard this, and then he remembered that Lin Fan came from outside the territory, and it seemed that he was born in a peaceful and comfortable environment, and he couldn't treat others with himself in many things, so it turned out that he had always blamed Lin Fan.

It would be superfluous for him to worry that Lin Fan would become paranoid and cruel after the incident in Guyu Village. In fact, this time he went out to go out, that is, Zixuan observed for nearly a year, Lin Fan has been practicing martial arts like crazy, lest he have mental problems, so he told the master, and wanted to take Lin Fan out to take him out for a walk, which is why he made this trip to Hangzhou.

He has never really understood his junior brother, all his concern is superficial, thinking of this Zixuan has some self-blame in his heart, and his face shows an unconcealable guilt.

"Okay, okay, why are you still arguing, Senior Brother Lin Fan, Senior Brother is not blaming you, but he is afraid that you have too much psychological pressure, in fact, Senior Brother is already very powerful, when Senior Sister killed someone for the first time, she was scared and cried on the spot, and she couldn't slow down for a long time, and she would have nightmares for half a year."

"It's not so much that you killed the beggar with cruel means, but that you broke through the shackles in your heart with cruel means to yourself, and tortured and killed your worries and fears, so you are really brave. The contradictions in your heart, the struggles in your heart, the regrets left in Guyu Village, the self-blame and guilt you left behind, the sacrifices you made, your difficult choices, senior sister understands, I understand you. Su Rong petted the top of Lin Fan's head and said softly.

"I'm sorry brother, I lost my temper just now, I... My heart is in a mess, you go back and rest first, I'll go out for a walk. Lin Fan said apologetically to Zixuan, and then walked out of the inn alone, and with a frustration in his heart, he took advantage of his light skills and galloped all the way out of the village, running wildly in the wilderness like a vent.

I don't know how long he ran, Lin Fan has been far away from the village, and sat down by a small river, this place is deserted, only the sound of a small river, and the sound of unknown insects, surrounded by the smell of fragrant grass, he took a deep breath, feeling that his chest was not so stuffy, but then he found that he was lost.

Lin Fan sat quietly, the evening breeze brought a chill, he couldn't help but shiver, from the bottom of his heart to the whole body, there is no communication equipment in this era, can he still find it? In this era, sometimes a loss of contact is a lifetime, thinking of this, Lin Fan felt an inexplicable sense of fear and loneliness.

Just as he was thinking wildly, there was a sudden movement behind him, Lin Fan was just about to turn around, a pair of slender hands, he draped a long shirt windbreaker on his body, Lin Fan turned his head and found that it was Lingsha who caught up.

"Coming here alone so late, isn't it frozen?" Lingsha sat beside Lin Fan dexterously and asked with a smile.

"Why are you here?" Lin Fan pretended to be indifferent and said, obviously still resentful of Lingsha's act of guarding himself just now.

"There is a dignified man, who learns to be a little woman in the middle of the night, and runs away from home alone, of course I can't wait to come over to see the excitement, what a new thing." Lingsha teased with a wicked smile.

Lin Fan was a little embarrassed, his face was slightly red, and he whispered: "Fart, where did you come from running away from home, didn't I say it, I'm in a bad mood to go out for a walk." You don't mess with me, you know? As soon as I close my eyes now, I think of the beggar's distorted face, and my heart is very irritated. ”

"That's easy, you don't want to do this, you can think of some other happy things." Lingsha said nonchalantly.

"What do you want to do happily? What is there to think about happily. Lin Fan pursed his lips and said.

"For example, you can think about me, will you be happier when you think of me?" Lingsha put her arm on Lin Fan's shoulder and said teasingly.

"Amitabha, I think I should continue to think about beggars." Lin Fan said disdainfully.

Ling Sha slapped Lin Fan on the back of the head, and said angrily: "You idiot, I came to accompany you in the middle of the night, and all you think about is a stinky beggar?" ”

"Poof" Lin Fan was amused by Lingsha's words, this one broke the defense, he couldn't be serious anymore, and after talking with Lingsha, Lin Fan felt much better, and then blurted out with some emotion: "Wicked girl, can you always accompany me like this?" You are the first and only friend I have ever met here. ”

Ling Sha seemed to be a little happy when she heard Lin Fan's words, and then dragged Lin Fan down, put his head on her thigh, and said softly in his ear: "Of course, who made us friends, let's sleep for a while, and all the troubles will be gone when we wake up." ”

Lingsha was unprecedentedly gentle, but it made Lin Fan uncomfortable, and he lay on Lingsha's lap and said timidly: "I don't dare to sleep." ”

"Hmph, what are you afraid of with me here? You can rest assured and I will protect you. No matter what kind of cunning villain, or demons, or even snakes, insects, mosquitoes, and ants, Miss Ben didn't dare to come over when she sat here. Lingsha said proudly.

"Is that because you're scarier than you say? I'm afraid of you! Lin Fan closed his eyes and muttered.

"What are you afraid of me?" Ryosha narrowed her eyes dangerously and asked pretending to be delicate.

"I'm afraid that you will kill me when I fall asleep, or stab me more than a dozen times in a row, and the knife will avoid the vital point, you medical students have the dirtiest hearts." Lin Fan joked.

"Miss Ben wants to kill you, do you have to wait for you to fall asleep?" Lingsha gritted her teeth and said viciously, grabbed Lin Fan's ear, and twisted it desperately.

"Wrong, wrong! I'm kidding, it hurts! You let go! Lin Fan almost jumped up in pain, and then begged for mercy.

"Do you sleep? If you don't sleep, get up now and go back with me. "Ryosha is really a little annoyed this time.

"Sleep, sleep, sleep." Seeing that Lingsha was really angry, Lin Fan didn't dare to make a mistake, Lin Fan's mood today can be said to be ups and downs, joy, anger, sorrow, sorrow and horror were staged in turn, and now he is indeed a little tired when he relaxes.

After a while, Lin Fan's breathing stabilized and seemed to be asleep, and suddenly he said dreamily: "Is it true that you said that you will always accompany me?" ”

"It's true, I'll be there for you as long as you need it, okay." Lingsha said impatiently.

Lin Fan was miserable in his heart, he knew that this was unrealistic, he came to this world inexplicably, and he didn't know when he would disappear inexplicably, no matter how long the process takes, by the end of the story, he will always have to separate, just like the ending of the movie at the end of the novel, he can't stay here forever.

Lin Fan asked a little sadly, "Lingsha, what if I suddenly disappear one day?" ”

"Then I'll wait for ten years in the place where you disappeared, and if you don't come back for ten years, I'll go to the rivers and lakes to find you for a hundred years."
