Chapter 18: Tears of Beauty
Ask what is the situation in the world, and the direct religion promises life and death......
Some love is destined to have no ending, while some people are destined to be lonely for a lifetime. But even so, there are still many people who are willing to pay recklessly and stick to it regardless of the reason. That's why when it comes to love, it's always a bit poignant.
The farthest distance in the world is not that I love you but you don't know, but that I know that you love me, but I can only pretend not to see it, because I have embarked on a road that may not even know if there is an end to myself, this road may be long, long, or there may be no end at all......
Ruyi looked at the helpless lying on the bed, his face was pale and unintentional, covering his chest, enduring the pain in his heart, and biting his lip tightly. When she heard the news that Shangguan Yunjie had sent someone to deliver the news of her unintentional injury, she was stupid, what she was most worried about had happened, and this was the last thing she wanted to face. When she came to Fengyun Castle and entered the heartless ward, the whole person couldn't hold on any longer, her mind suddenly went blank, and she almost fell to the ground. The scene was all too familiar, just like the one a few years ago, and she didn't know if the person lying on the opposite bed would be able to come back to life again like the last time.
She slowly walked to the bed step by step, looking at this thin but extremely strong young man, a trace of distress welled up in her heart, trembling and stretched out her hand, gently stroking the pale face as white as snow in front of her, choked and speechless. Perhaps only at this time could she stand in front of him so closely, and soothe this person who haunted her with trembling hands.
"Ruyi girl, I have asked the best doctor in Phantom City to check the injuries of Wuxin Gongzi, and the doctor said that he has suffered very serious internal injuries, coupled with the blood and blood, he may not wake up for a while. Cheng Yuan, the steward of Fengyun Castle behind him, said at this time, with a trace of sadness between his words.
"Did the doctor say when he would wake up?" Ruyi asked tentatively, knowing it wouldn't be so soon. At this time, she faintly smelled a trace of blood, which was unusually pungent. Gently lifted the futon on Wuxin's body, only to see that in his hand, he held a knife tightly, the knife that he had never seen and left since he first came to Phantom City a few years ago, like a life-saving straw, he held it tightly, as if he was afraid of being snatched away by others.
"This, this ......" Cheng Yuan hesitated, not knowing how to answer. In fact, after examining Wuxin's body and prescribing medicine, the doctor said that Wuxin's injury was very serious, and he didn't know when he would wake up, and maybe, he might not wake up at all. But when he saw the sad Ruyi, he didn't know where to start.
"Okay, I got it. Ruyi interrupted Cheng Yuan's words, she already knew how bad the situation was. "Where's his scabbard?" Ruyi asked after a pause, no matter what the doctor's conclusion was, she didn't want to know, because she was convinced that he would wake up, definitely, just like he had been years ago.
"Oh, here, I wanted to take the knife down, but Heartless Childe held it so tightly that I couldn't take it down. Cheng Yuan said, picked up a pair of dark scabbards from the table next to him, and handed them to Ruyi. A heartless sword, how can anyone take it?
The scabbard that Ruyi handed over from afar was gently put on the knife in Wuxin's hand, and then gently covered it with a quilt, and the smell of blood gradually disappeared. He must have had a terrible battle last night, he must have been exhausted, Ruyi thought to himself.
"You go down, I will take care of this place in the future, you go and take care of your master and young master." Ruyi didn't look back, only said lightly. His eyes were still on the cheeks that were already white and could no longer be white, as if he was reluctant to take them off for a moment.
"Yes. Cheng Yuan agreed and left, without further disturbing. He had witnessed the fierce battle last night, and he knew best the brutality of the time. Now that the Lord of Fengyun Castle and the Lord of Young Castle have been injured, he still has a lot to do.
At the moment when Ruyi knew that Wuxin was injured, Ruyi had already ordered her subordinates to immediately track down the Saibei Shuangying, she didn't want the Saibei Shuangying to leave the Phantom City alive, not only because they injured Wuxin, but also because she knew that she couldn't let the tiger return to the mountain. However, there is no news from the people who sent it out, and the Saibei Twin Eagles seem to have disappeared suddenly, leaving no trace.
Soon, the news that Fengyun Castle had been trampled on spread in Phantom City, and people couldn't believe their ears, and they were talking about what was sacred and could make Fengyun Castle suffer such a catastrophe......
"He'll wake up, don't worry. Shangguan Yunjie looked at Ruyi, who was sitting on the edge of the heartless bed in a daze, and said slowly, with a trace of unbearability in his words. His injuries had healed a bit, but he still looked struggling.
Seven days have passed, and Wuxin still hasn't woken up. Wuxin was in a coma for seven days, and Ruyi stayed here for seven days, taking care of Wuxin all the time, and never left for a moment. Ruyi at this moment, it is difficult to hide the fatigue under the beautiful face, as if he has lost a lot of weight, and his eyes are red. In the past few days, Shangguan Yunjie has often come to check, firstly because he is concerned about his unintentional injury, and secondly, he is also worried about Ruyi.
"I know. Ruyi didn't look back, nodded firmly and said. From the beginning, she knew that Wuxin would definitely wake up. In the past few days, she has been by the bedside of Wuxin, silently talking to him, she knows that he will definitely be able to hear.
"I didn't want him to come, but he came anyway. Shangguan Yunjie shook his head and said, he blamed himself very much, blaming himself for being useless, allowing his best friend to be so seriously injured in order to save himself.
"He said he had to come. If he is in danger, you will definitely go. Ruyi smiled and said, but smiled reluctantly and sadly. This is his exact words, although he can't read all the emotions between men, but she can feel that he cares about everyone around him who is good to him.
"Yes, I will definitely go. Shangguan Yunjie said without thinking, that's right, this is their tacit understanding, and there is no need for a reason.
"I've had the Northern Twin Eagles tracked down, but they've disappeared since they left Fengyun Castle, and there's no trace of them. Ruyi frowned and said, to be honest, she couldn't wait to find them now and finish them with her own hands. Especially when I saw the unintentionality at this moment, the hatred in my heart was even stronger.
"It seems that the enemy is not as simple as imagined, and perhaps, things are not so simple at all. Shangguan Yunjie also frowned, he always felt that there was a bigger conspiracy behind this matter. Things are too strange, originally to avenge the apprentice, Saibei Shuangying only said that he wanted to fight alone with his father, and he also secretly assassinated the killer halfway, and then cleverly did not deal with the sneak attacker, and insidiously launched a second sneak attack, even if Saibei Shuangying no longer talks about the morality of the rivers and lakes, how can the two people with such a big name be so despicable, all this seems too abnormal.
Perhaps, this secretly hides a secret that even Shangguan Fengyun, the lord of Fengyun Castle, does not know......
The morning breeze stirred the leaves and grass, making a "rustling" sound, through the open window, broke into the house, blowing the tablecloth of the table in the room danced in the wind, a candlestick on the table was blown from side to side, the candle that had been burned all night had long been blown out, and the wisp of green smoke was also blown away by the breeze and disappeared into the air. Although the faint light of the morning sun had gradually shone in, it still suddenly felt a little cool, and people couldn't help but shiver.
Ruyi, who was lying on the side of the bed and was asleep, suddenly woke up, and she was woken up by the wind and remembered the window she opened last night and carelessly forgot to close it, and hurriedly got up to close the "culprit" who easily let this cool breeze in, but she suddenly stopped, stared at the empty bed at this time, and was stunned.
Then, she turned around like crazy, looking for it in a panic. At this time, he saw the figure standing by the window, the figure that was originally thin and weak, but at this time it looked even more vicissitudes. Then, her whole body began to tremble, her right hand covered her mouth, tears came out of her eyes, and she could not stop any longer, and the despair and sadness of these days were finally released at this moment.
I woke up unintentionally, and finally woke up.
At this time, Wuxin stood quietly by the window, looking at the rising sun, smelling the breeze, breathing hard and slowly, feeling the relief of being reborn again. It's still the black cloak, it's the knife hidden under the black, it's still the figure that's thin but tough and straight.
"You're awake, you're finally awake. Ruyi bit her lip and said in a choked voice, clutching a blanket draped over her body tightly in her hand, which was unintentionally put on for her, the first time. They had all been in such close proximity, but only when the other was unconscious. But it doesn't matter, the important thing is that at this moment, she can finally rest assured.
"Thank you. Wuxin said lightly and didn't look back. But he knows that he can come back to life, thanks to Ruyi, these days he always feels that there is a voice talking to him, telling himself to wake up quickly, and now, he knows that that person is the girl behind him, Ruyi. It's not that he doesn't want to turn around and say thank you, it's that he doesn't dare to look back, he's afraid that after he turns around, he won't be able to leave.
"It's not hard, as long as you can live, it's more important than anything else, and I'm willing to do anything for this. Ruyi said affirmatively, not hiding her extremely excited mood at this time, this morning couldn't be better for her.
Hearing Ruyi's words, Wuxin not only frowned, but a trace of pain appeared on his face, and he sighed and said, "Why do you want to be like this." ”
"Nothing is more important to me than if you live, and if you die, I don't know what will become of me. Ruyi gritted her teeth and said this sentence that had been hidden in her heart for countless nights, and today she finally mustered up the courage.
"I don't deserve you like this. Wuxin shook his head and said, the pain on his face deepened.
"After so many years, don't you know my heart?" Ruyi said with a choked voice, tears couldn't help but burst out of her eyes again, looking forward to looking at the figure in front of her that had appeared in her dreams countless times.
Wuxin didn't speak, frowned, and the hand holding the knife tightened, trying to calm himself down by the coldness from the blade. After a pause, he said lightly: "My heart is dead, and my blood is cold." ”
Ruyi heard the unintentional answer, the glimmer of hope in his eyes disappeared, and tears flowed down his cheeks like a flood that burst the embankment, dripping on the placket and dripping to the ground. Ruyi, who could no longer control herself, ran out of the house crying, rushed out of the front yard, never looked back, and gradually disappeared from the unintentional sight. She was sad, completely sad, just like she had guessed the ending, although she had refused to believe it countless times.
Looking at Ruyi in the distance, he closed his eyes unintentionally, his body trembled slightly, and a faint light flashed in the gap in the corner of his eye, and then disappeared, like tears, although it was short, but it was real.
"Does it have to be like this?" At this time, Shangguan Yunzhuo appeared beside Wuxin, and asked with a helpless sigh. Originally, he came to check on his unintentional injury, but he happened to witness the scene just now.
"I don't want her to be sadder in the future than she is now. Wuxin took a deep breath, looked at the sun gradually rising in the sky, and said lightly, but his voice no longer had the usual coldness and firmness.
Shangguan Yunjie shook his head and didn't say anything more, he knew that there were too many things hidden in the heart of this best friend in front of him, and there must be an unknown past. But since he didn't want to mention it, he didn't want to ask too much.
"I think it's time for me to go. Wuxin said lightly, he was leaving, maybe there was still something to do, and he had to continue on the road, perhaps, he wanted to leave to escape something. Originally, he didn't belong anywhere, and he was always on the road.
"At least wait until the injury heals before leaving. Shangguan Yunjie didn't want to stop him, he knew that he couldn't keep it, but he was worried about his heartless body.
Wuxin did not answer.
The two of them just stood there quietly, looking into the distance, without speaking......
