Chapter 063: An Orphaned Child's Experience
Qiu Lifeng was wrapped in a dazzling black cloak, covering his head to his feet, the light was not good, and when he dressed up like this, it was even more difficult to be discovered, and the whole person almost disappeared into the darkness.
Bai Luoshang didn't find Qiu Lifeng by eye, so no matter what Qiu Lifeng dressed and how strange she dressed, Bai Luoshang wouldn't know.
Qiu Lifeng's bamboo flute turned flexibly between his slender fingers, and he sat side by side with Bai Luosheng for a while before he spoke again: "I have already been to that City God Temple." ”
"Oh?" Bai Luoshang pulled him in surprise, "Did you find anything?"
Qiu Lifeng twisted his eyebrows, looked straight at Bai Luoshang's eyes, and said with a little confusion: "Your eyes?"
He was a little far away just now, although he heard Bai Luoshang say that he suddenly couldn't see, but he only thought he was joking, and now it has been confirmed that his eyes really can't see.
But how could it be? Could it be that it was broken when it fell?
But no matter how you look at it, Bai Luoshang doesn't look like such a fragile person.
Shaking his head, Bai Luoshang smiled and said, "I'll talk about this later, you can talk about it first, what did you find in that City God Temple?"
Qiu Lifeng replied: "There is nothing in the ruined temple, only a broken stone statue of the city god. ”
"It's impossible, it's clear that there's something in it, and it can't be wrong. Bai Luoshang said with great certainty.
Based on his feelings, it was impossible for there to be nothing in that temple, but Qiu Lifeng could answer like this, which meant that there was indeed nothing there. And why did he feel instinctively afraid of that place in the first place?
Qiu Lifeng obviously had the same doubts, and said solemnly: "Your intuition has always been accurate, but this time it is not. ”
Bai Luoshang shook his head helplessly, and sighed: "If I can, I hope this time it is really not allowed." ”
It was the first time he had felt like this, and for the first time he wished that his instincts were his own delusions.
"Why did you suddenly jump down here just now?" Qiu Lifeng was still shocked when he thought about it now, fortunately he was not far away, otherwise he wouldn't be able to pull Bai Luosheng.
Of course, with Bai Luoshang's ability, it is difficult to fall to death, but now that he can't use his eyes, it's really hard to say the result of falling like this.
"Because I think the way out may be in this pit, but I don't know how deep this pit is. If you want to come down, you can only jump, but if you want not to be killed, you can only hope for the prince Qiu. Bai Luoshang grinned, and the tone of his voice was also improper, and the indifferent look seemed to be just an illusion of Qiu Lifeng alone.
Qiu Lifeng raised his head in displeasure, glanced at the dark deep hole above his head, and sighed: "So, you found out that I was following behind?"
Bai Luoshang lowered his eyebrows and smiled: "It's just intuition." ”
"You can see that your intuition has always been accurate. Qiu Lifeng turned his gaze to look at him, "I didn't miss it." ”
Bai Luoshang raised his eyebrows and said suspiciously: "But in that broken temple, you didn't find anything." ”
Qiu Lifeng said seriously and seriously: "No." ”
How could there not be?
Bai Luoshang was almost certain that there must be something in that temple, he just wasn't sure what it was. If Qiu Lifeng really went in, with his dexterity, it was impossible that he wouldn't find anything, but he said that he didn't find anything. This made Bai Luoshang start to be a little suspicious, did Qiu Lifeng really go in?
"After you jumped down from outside just now, did you see the two of you?" asked Bai Luosheng.
"See. Qiu Lifeng replied slowly, "It's a pity that I didn't die, but I didn't live long." ”
The air was thin in that place, and if no one went back to save them, they would sooner or later suffocate to death.
Qiu Lifeng's words are right, but the tone of his voice is wrong, no matter how he listens, there is a kind of malice in it.
"That place is full of light, could it be that the hole is not deep?" Bai Luoshang said.
"No way. Qiu Lifeng denied, "The thickness of the corpses in that place is higher than the house, how can there be light underneath? Not to mention light, even the air is impermeable." ”
But the boy said, "There was light in the place." Bai Luoshang guessed, "If the sunlight outside can shine through the gaps, I don't think those corpses will be covered with thick ......."
"Don't think about it, it's impossible. The boy looked away, and the light wasn't coming from outside. Qiu Lifeng's expression was a little heavy, but he didn't want to say more, so he ended the topic lightly and seriously, and said, "I think it's important that we hurry up and find an exit." ”
When Bai Luoshang heard this, he laughed, "The eldest prince is in such a hurry to go out, why did he jump off?"
Qiu Lifeng knocked Bai Luoshang on the shoulder hard, and said fiercely: "Nonsense, of course it's to save you." ”
Bai Luoshang said in disbelief: "Didn't you say just now that you were looking for someone who didn't see the light?
Qiu Lifeng bared his teeth and said viciously: "It's just to save you by the way, besides, you are a thousand taels of gold, wouldn't it be a pity to fall like this." ”
"The eldest prince doesn't look like a person who is short of money. Bai Luoshang smiled, "Although I shouldn't ask, I really can't help but be curious, what exactly are you looking for?"
Qiu Lifeng said: "You are so smart, you don't need me to say anything more." ”
Bai Luoshang thought about it, and didn't ask any more.
Both are smart people, and both want to know more of each other's secrets, but both are very good at protecting their own secrets. They don't deliberately hide anything from each other every time they do something, but the motives and purposes of doing it make each other guess.
Qiu Lifeng is like this to Bai Luoshang, and Bai Luoshang is also like this to Qiu Lifeng.
"How deep do you think this corpse cave is that doesn't see the light of day?" Bai Luoshang poked towards the edge of the cave.
Qiu Lifeng hugged his arms and joked, "Are you going to jump down again to have a look?" Do you want me to give you a ride?"
Bai Luodui smiled: "I thought we were friends." ”
Qiu Lifeng said disdainfully: "The cost of being friends with you is too great, I can't afford it." ”
"Oh?"
"To be friends with you, you have to live and die, have no regrets, and be ready to go to Huangquan at any time. ”
"That's ...... Serious?" Bai Luoshang was extremely surprised by this.
He didn't think he was a dangerous person, so how could he be friends with him in danger of life and death?
I couldn't figure it out, so Bai Luoshang had no choice but to say abruptly: "So that's the case, no wonder I have no friends." ”
That's not right. Qiu Lifeng said, "Isn't Ziyun Dao Chang your friend?"
Bai Luoshang pondered.
He and Duan Nanshan are indeed brothers, they have lived and died several times, and Duan Nanshan has never left him. Now that I think about it, it has always been Duan Nanshan who has been in danger for him, but he has never done anything for Duan Nanshan. It can be seen that being friends with him is really earning for yourself and others for losing.
With a long sigh, Bai Luoshang smiled bitterly: "Wouldn't I be very sorry for him if making friends with me would take such a big risk?"
"You don't have to tell me that. Qiu Lifeng stood up, "The road above is blocked, maybe this road can be tried." ”
"Wait. Bai Luoshang grabbed Qiu Lifeng, "I still have to trouble the eldest son." ”
Qiu Lifeng quietly glanced at the direction of the top of the black press, and with the faint light, some outlines could be faintly seen. It's all the bones of dead people, and there is no place to borrow strength, so if you want to climb with your bare hands, if you have a good white coat, you may be able to climb up.
"Are you going to trouble me to go up?" Qiu Lifeng said dissatisfiedly.
"The eldest prince is really a smart man. Bai Luoshang didn't feel the slightest embarrassment.
"What is that thing going on?" Qiu Lifeng didn't want to.
"Since you don't need to take it, why did the eldest prince leave it for me?" Bai Luoshang said puzzled.
"It's just to find you a burial companion. Qiu Lifeng said without any inappropriateness.
"This ...... Prince Qiu is really a matter of preference. Bai Luoshang said helplessly, "And for the sake of my thin face, help me with this little favor, thank you." ”
Qiu Lifeng said with a stinky face: "My light skills are not as good as yours. ”
Bai Luoshang bent his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "The eldest prince's eyes are better than mine, and climbing up from here is a piece of cake for the eldest prince, and it is not a big deal." ”
Qiu Lifeng raised his eyebrows, suddenly thought of something, hooked the corners of his lips and smiled: "It's not impossible to sell you more favors, but you have to think about it, you will have to return this favor one by one in the future." ”
After speaking, he dropped the sentence "wait", and jumped out by himself.
After half a cup of tea, Qiu Lifeng had already jumped down with the little boy, his hands were light, his movements were elegant, and he came and went like the wind.
Bai Luoshang couldn't help but clap his hands and praised: "The eldest prince is good at kung fu!"
The action of the three people, coupled with Qiu Lifeng's ability, acted a lot faster than before.
During this period, Qiu Lifeng asked the little boy some questions, asking him why he came to this mass grave full of corpses and bones alone.
The little boy seemed to be very afraid of Qiu Lifeng, and he was trembling and unwilling to get too close to him, and when he saw Qiu Lifeng glaring at him, he couldn't help but hide behind Bai Luosheng, and replied unwillingly, saying that it was to go to the grave.
Qiu Lifeng continued to ask with a straight face, "Whose grave are you going to?"
The little boy pulled the sleeve of the white shirt uncomfortably, and replied in a low voice, "My father." ”
Bai Luoshang was a little surprised, took the little boy's hand, and asked in a low voice, "In that pile of bones...... Is one of them your father?"
The little boy nodded sullenly, "Hmm." ”
Bai Luoshang paused, and then said, "When did your father die?"
The little boy clenched Bai Luoshang's hand, and replied in a deeper and deeper voice: "My mother told me that my father was killed ten years ago. ”
Bai Luoshang patted him on the shoulder and said softly: "What about your mother, why didn't she come with you to give your father a grave?
"My mother is dead. The little boy's mood became even lower, he looked very sad, and tears gradually filled his eyes, "My mother was sick, and she had no money to go down the mountain to see a doctor, and she passed away soon after." ”
Caught in the memory, the little boy began to talk about his life with his mother, and from his excited and lost tone, it was clear that he loved his mother very much.
Bai Luoshang took the little boy's hand and asked with a smile, "What's your name?"
The little boy lowered his head and replied meekly: "Lu Yusheng." ”
It's a bit of a ...... name
Bai Luoshang touched the little boy's head and asked again, "How old are you?"
The little boy still replied very well-behaved: "Eight years old." ”
Bai Luoshang sighed earnestly to Qiu Lifeng: "It's really pitiful, I lost my father first, and then my mother, what is his name when he has no father and no mother?"
Qiu Lifeng said with a cold face: "Call it an orphan." ”
Bai Luoshang slowly shook his head and sighed: "It's so pitiful, I ...... at a young age."
Qiu Lifeng pointed at Bai Luoshang's nose and said with a sarcastic smile: "You are really hypocritical, I almost want to be amazed at your cheekiness, are you the kind of person who has compassion?"
"......" Bai Luoshang felt that he was slapped on the head by Qiu Lifeng, and it crackled, and even his ears sounded because of this.
