Chapter 271: Inner Demon (9)
"There's no why, it's just a gut feeling, and besides, if you're my father, how could you trap me here?"
Xuan Yu'er was obviously a little confused by Dugu Bo's answer, if he was really his father, how could he make her feel a strong hostility.
"That's why you suspect that you are my daughter, but we are strangers, and if you hadn't found it yourself, I'm afraid I wouldn't have known of your existence.
My life is very different from yours, just as I don't know anything about what you've been through, and you don't know anything about what I've been through.
Our life experiences and temperaments are completely different.
I saw that you were demented in speech, and that you were suffering from amnesia, and I had to take this step to trap you.
In my heart, I don't want to recognize you as a daughter, but when I see you alone and weak, I can't bear to let you out, lest something happen that I regret it. ”
"You mean, I found it myself?"
"Yes, this answer has been given to you a long time ago. ”
"Then why didn't you tell me the truth in the first place! ”
"When you came to me, you were already demented, and when you woke up in the morning, you lost your memory, which irritated you, so I didn't say anything to you.
These days, I am also thinking about the meaning of your existence to me, and whether I should take on this role as a father, although I was only a one-night love for your mother back then, but since you have my blood, and you said that your mother has died of infirmity, I have to take care of you.
But my heart is also very entangled, and I hope you can understand my suffering. ”
After hearing these words, Xuan Yu'er's expression changed, and she didn't know whether to believe the other party's words or not.
He groaned for a while and said, "You say, my mother also died?"
"You told me yourself. ”
Dugu Bo lied.
After saying that, he groaned for a while, and then took out a piece of high-grade blood jade from his arms, on which was engraved the word "jade", which was given to him by a friend back then.
Looking at this piece of blood jade, Dugu Bo threw it to Xuan Yu'er on the opposite side and said: "This piece of jade is something you gave to me, I gave this piece of jade to your mother back then, and she gave it to you before she died, so you took this piece of jade to find me." ”
Xuan Yu'er grabbed this piece of jade in her hand, feeling extremely unfamiliar.
"Well, if you want to go, I won't keep you, and if you think it's dark, I'll take you to the bright place later, and you can decide for yourself. ”
Dugu Bo said this, but in his heart, he was murderous, as long as that Xuan Yuer said that he wanted to leave, then he had to kill him immediately to get rid of future troubles.
Xuan Yu'er was extremely hesitant, looking at the blood jade in her hand, thinking about what Dugu Bo said, not knowing whether she wanted to stay or leave.
She felt as if she was missing something, she should be missing herself, missing her past memories, she might be able to find her past self through this so-called father, maybe she shouldn't believe the words of the stranger in front of her, he made her feel both scared and dependent, very conflicted.
After about a meal, Xuan Yu'er looked up at Dugu Bo, who had been staring at her, and said, "Okay, then I'll stay, but I don't want to live in this cave anymore, it makes me feel very uneasy, I hope you can take me to meet my mother's grave in the future." ”
After taking the piece of jade into her arms, Xuan Yu'er seemed to remember something, and said, "By the way, can you tell me my name? and my mother's name and your name." ”
When Dugu Bo heard this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then said: "Your name is Yu'er, and my surname is Ding, but you follow your mother's surname Xuan, you are called Xuan Yu'er, and you can also follow my surname Ding Yu'er; ”
Dugu Bo didn't know why, when he wanted to name the woman in front of him, a Xuan Yu'er popped up in his brain almost at the same time, so he accidentally put "Xuan Yu'er" on herself, and Xuan Ning made it up.
"Xuan Yu'er!"
Xuan Yu'er muttered her name, as if she remembered something, but she couldn't remember it, but she seemed to have a good impression of it.
"Okay, I'll call you Xuan Yu'er in the future! But I can't fully accept your matter as my father for the time being, so I hope you can understand, I'm afraid I can only call you Mr. Ding in the future." ”
"It doesn't matter what you call me, follow me now!"
"Yes!"
Xuan Yu'er got up from the bed and walked to Dugu Bo's side, but she didn't get completely close to him. Dugu Bo didn't pay much attention to it, turned around, and took Xuan Yu'er out of the cave from another path, and arrived at a place that was completely different from the previous thatched hut on the lotus pond.
But this place is surrounded by high mountains, in the center is a grassland with a radius of more than 1,000 acres, all kinds of wild flowers are everywhere; there is also a waterfall about 1,000 feet high near the cave, under the waterfall is a deep pool of more than 100 zhang size, in which fish can be seen, rainbow neon mist, the scenery is pleasant.
Xuan Yu'er closed her eyes, but she didn't see this scene, she just felt that her eyes were itchy, and she could feel the sun shining and a piece of light.
Because she had been in the dark for a long time, she was afraid that her eyesight would be stimulated by the sudden bright light, so she closed it for a long time before she slowly opened her eyes, and when she saw the scenery in front of her, she was in a good mood.
"Later, I'll build you a log cabin here. You have to remember, I have a lot of enemies, so there are all kinds of traps in the cave in case the enemies come to me.
You don't know much about these mechanisms, so it's best not to be in a cave, there are elk, monkeys, minks, wolves, horses, elephants, leopards, wildebeests, etc. for you to enjoy, I hope you won't find it boring. ”
Xuan Yu'er was temporarily disturbed by the beautiful scenery in front of her, and ran quickly to the deep pool, and saw that her face was shy, and her clothes were a little messy, so she began to tidy up and wash;
Dugu Bo was helpless, and began to jump to the nearby mountain, cut down several mahogany with the Zixia Sword, and began to build a log cabin on a flat place near the cave.
After a few days, Xuan Yu'er would sometimes help, but this simple wooden house was quickly built.
Xuan Yuer also went to the field to catch some hares and ponies, and the little wolf raised them, and life began to be happy.
Every time Dugu Bo finishes his work, this Xuan Yuer can also insert some big fish in the deep pool, wrap them in lotus leaves, pile a simple wild stove with stones, roast them fragrantly, and hand them to Dugu Bo.
After building the hut, Dugu Bo went to bring pots and pans for Xuan Yuer, and Xuan Yuer picked all kinds of coconut fruits and wild vegetables on various hills, or made some simple fishing gear to catch some small animals.
Every time she returned to the cottage, she was busy on the stove, and with such a simple environment, she was a master cook, and she cooked all kinds of delicious food.
Every time Dugu Bo came, he would have a full meal before leaving, and the relationship between the two became closer and closer, but no one had the urge to go further.
In such a hurry, the years passed, and time flickered past three years.
Dugu Bo, who has recovered some of his skills, will spend most of his time practicing Ziwei swordsmanship on the edge of the deep pool hut, as the internal force gradually condenses, the sword qi on the sword is becoming more and more powerful, and the water pillars on the deep pool can sometimes be seen breaking through the air, but it is forced by the sword qi.
Every time the water column fell on the shore, Xuan Yu'er would smile and go to collect fish and shrimp, and place them in a small pond of stones and mud next to the hut.
For some reason, in the past three years, Xuan Yu'er can feel the two-sided character of his so-called father, on the one hand, he has a loving side, and on the other hand, he is very strict, both for himself and for his daughter.
When he is loving, he will stare at himself for a long time, and he will say that he is very much like his mother, and every time he looks at her, he will look at his own mother, and he will cook things and eat with him.
But she had rarely seen this father smile, and even when he did, his father's eyes were very cold and sad, and this sadness seemed to accompany his father's eyes from beginning to end, whether it was laughing or severely reproaching himself.
Every fifth day of the month, this father would have a headache and dance wildly in the moonlight with the Zixia Sword, and at this time, Xuan Yu'er would also hide far away.
At first, she didn't know what was happening, and wanted to get closer, but when she found that her father's eyes were very strange, she wanted to tear everything apart like a beast had seen her prey, and she couldn't help but say something, so she chased after her with a sword, and forced her to jump into the deep pool and swim into the distance.
Each time, the father would look up to the sky and howl, cry and curse, and then disappear, and each time he would come back early the next morning.
Back in the hut, he was with him as if he didn't know anything about what had happened last night.
She gradually guessed that a lot of tragic things happened to her father, which inevitably stimulated him and hurt him, and she would act as if nothing had happened every time, and on the fifth day of the first month of every month, she ran to a place where Dugu Bo couldn't find it to hide.
She felt that her father must be a peerless master of martial arts, with every move and style close to perfection, and his posture was unusually beautiful, but no matter how perfect she thought his father was, his father was never satisfied with herself, and often practiced martial arts for a day and a night until he was exhausted.
The longer she gets along with Dugubo's father, the stronger her dependence on him becomes, and gradually she has forgotten the estrangement between her and him, but she never dares to call him father, I don't know if it's because Mr. Ding is used to calling him and is difficult to change, or because of something else.
