black pupil

Chapter 14

An Songyue's first reaction was not joy, but fear.

He was terribly scared, he was afraid that Gu Qingquan would see himself like a coward.

He buried his head deeper, and murmured: "No, I'm not, you've got the wrong person."

Hearing that the voice was clearly An Songyue, Gu Qingquan was immediately overjoyed, and rushed to his side, and seeing how embarrassed he was, he didn't know how much he had suffered, so he couldn't help but shed tears.

She knew that An Songyue was very strong since she was a child, and she definitely didn't want others to see him like this, so she untied her cloak and wrapped him up, without letting him say anything, picked him up and left.

She found an inn with no acquaintances, and put him on the inn bed, An Songyue looked up at her.

It was only half a month since I saw her last time.

Half a month ago, he had both parents, and all his clan members were present. He was also the proud son of heaven, and he was a perfect match for his fiancée, a golden boy and a jade girl.But now, both of my parents are dead, my family members are all bereaved, I am blind, I have lost my sword skills, and I have become a waste, how can I be worthy of her.He couldn't even take another look at his lover's face.

He wanted to cry, but the tears had already been shed in the past half a month.

Seeing him look up, Gu Qingquan saw the cloth strips on his eyes, and asked with a trembling voice, "What's wrong with your eyes?"

An Songyue's tone was flat: "I'm blind."

Gu Qingquan was heartbroken, tried to calm down, and said: "It's okay, I'll go to the doctor to show you, I'm sure you'll be fine." After saying that, he was about to go out.

She had just taken two steps, as if she remembered something, she stopped again and said, "I'll ask the guy to bring hot water for you to take a bath first, and then I'll see the doctor after the bath."

She asked the clerk for bathtubs, and poured hot water into them one by one, and went to help An Songyue undress after filling the water.

An Songyue refused: "I will do it myself."

Gu Qingquan froze for a moment, and said, "Okay, then I'll go buy you new clothes."

She started crying when she got out of the inn. After crying for a while, she wiped away her tears and said to herself: It's nothing, he still has me, and I can be his eyes.

She bought An Songyue a complete set of new clothes, new shoes, and even a walking stick.

She returned to the inn with her new purchases, and as soon as she walked to the door, she heard the sound of heavy objects falling inside.

She hurriedly opened the door and went in, only to find that An Songyue had knocked over the table and fell to the ground.She quickly helped him up and moved everything in the middle of the room to the wall.

An Songyue drove her out, but she didn't leave, saying, "I'm going to give you a bath. If you marry me in the future, I'll be your daughter-in-law. What's the matter with taking a bath for you? If you don't marry me, I'll be your buddy Well, it's normal for brothers to help each other."

An Songyue didn't expect her to say that, and was momentarily stunned.

While he was in a daze, Gu Qingquan took off his clothes and put him in the barrel.

An Songyue nestled in the barrel and gave up resistance.

Gu Qingquan began to bathe him, and saw that his body was full of scars, such as knife wounds, bruises, bruises, whips and club wounds, old wounds were not healed and new wounds were added, and there was no half of good skin on his body, so he shed tears again .

She didn't dare to speak out, so she could only shed tears silently, feeling that she had shed all the tears she had accumulated in the past 20 years.

While bathing him, she said softly: "You know, everyone is looking for you, Shen Zui, Song Yan, and A Li, everyone misses you very much, and I must be very happy to know that you are alive. By the way , I have to pass a blue bird talisman to them and tell them not to look for it, or I am lucky, no one else can find you, only I can find you."

She chattered, regardless of whether An Songyue said or not: "You go back to Changhen Mountain with me, okay? My father is also very worried about you. I will go to Xiqi to find the best doctor to see you. When you recover, Let's get married. No, we don't need to wait for you to take care of me, we will follow the original plan and get married this summer, okay?"

An Songyue's voice was flat: "Let's forget about our marriage."

Gu Qingquan's voice changed: "Why?"

An Songyue smiled miserably, and said, "Look at me now, don't you feel disgusted by marrying such a person?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt two soft lips sticking to his own. He was stunned and forgot to react.

I heard Gu Qingquan say: "Remember, I only like you, I can only marry you, and you can only marry me."

***

Gu Qingquan hid a car and took An Songyue back to Xiqi.

Gu Yin saw that An Songyue was blind, lame, and skinny. He was a different person from the noble family in the past. He sighed again and again and found the best doctor in Xiqi to see him.

The doctor said to Gu Qingquan: "Mr. An's body is covered with skin wounds. It looks terrible. You can apply golden sore medicine and take care of it for a while. The leg injury didn't hurt the bones. You don't need to move around on weekdays, and take care of yourself more. It’s not a big problem. It’s the eyes, alas, that were blinded by Feng’s poisonous miasma. If I had used the medicine when I couldn’t see it, there was still a possibility of recovery, but now that it’s been so long, the poisonous gas has already entered If the inside of the eyeball is damaged, no matter what medicine is used, it will not be cured.”

An Songyue's hearing is very good, and he could hear the doctor's speech from a long distance away.

He smiled self-deprecatingly, and thought to himself: What is the use of cure, what's the use, I can't use the sword myself, so I'm a useless person anyway.

He had been strong for a short period of time after An's family was wiped out, but the practice and blows for more than ten consecutive days quickly extinguished this small flame of strength.He began to think that it would have been better if he had died in Lingyin Mountain, so that he wouldn't be living like a waste and waiting to die.

Now he stays at home every day, eats and sleeps, and doesn't pay attention to anyone who talks to him.When he was awake, he would either sit in a daze or lie down in a daze. Anyway, he was blind, and his eyes were covered with cloth strips. No one knew whether he was in a daze or fell asleep.

Gu Qingquan found a lot of fresh gadgets for him to play with every day, and came to tease him every day. At the beginning, he said "um" a few times as a response, but later he didn't even bother to perfunctory, lying on the bed pretend to sleep.

He was so dazed for a few days, and Gu Qingquan suddenly wanted to take him out.

He didn't want to go anywhere at first, but he couldn't hold back Gu Qingquan since he was a child, she always had various ways to make himself compromise, and now that he was sick every day, he couldn't hold back her even more.

They walked on the road for two days, Gu Qingquan helped him get off the carriage, and asked him, "Do you know where this is?"

Of course An Songyue didn't know.

Gu Qingquan said unhurriedly: "This is Lingyin Mountain."

An Songyue seemed to have encountered some venomous beast, the muscles on his face twitched, and he stepped back.

Where would Gu Qingquan allow him to escape? She tightened his hand, dragged him up the mountain, and asked him as she walked, "Do you know what Lingyin Mountain looks like now?"

An Songyue didn't know, and he didn't want to know, he was afraid.He is afraid of everything beyond recognition now, and even more afraid that everything beyond recognition will remind him of the day that made him feel so painful.

Just listen to Gu Qingquan asking and answering: "Those cherry blossom trees that have grown for decades are all burned to death, and now they are all scorched branches without a single flower. Feel it." He took his hand to touch the tree trunk.

An Songyue's hands trembled violently.

Gu Qingquan had no intention of letting him go today.They walked up the mountain, and every time they went to a place, Gu Qingquan would give an explanation: "This is the pond where we used to catch fish when we were young. Now the water in it is dry, and all the fish and shrimp are dead."

"We used to come to this forest often, and met rabbits, pheasants, and moose deer here. I even raised a rabbit, but now there are no living things, and they were all poisoned to death by the poisonous miasma released by Feng. gone."

An Songyue's face turned pale when he heard it, and he wanted to block his ears with his hands, but his hand was held by Gu Qingquan, so he could only listen to the heart-pounding words and send them into his ears one by one.

"This is the tree you climbed up to dig out the eggs, do you remember? There is nothing on the tree now. Let alone this tree, there is not a single bird, not even a worm, to be found in the whole mountain It's all gone. There are no birds or insects, listen, isn't it very quiet?"

An Songyue felt something was wrong ever since she entered the mountain. Hearing what she said, she realized that Lingyin Mountain was too quiet, so quiet that there was no vitality.He thought of the time when cicadas and birds sang and people were noisy in Lingyin Mountain, and his heart was very sad. He felt that the cloth strips on his eyes were wet. He touched the cloth strips with his hands and found that he was crying.

He was already blind, and he was still crying.

At last they came somewhere on the top of the hill.Gu Qingquan said: "Do you know where this is?"

An Songyue was afraid of her words.

Gu Qingquan continued: "This is the tomb of Uncle An and Aunt An."

An Songyue always thought that the bodies of his father and mother were in Xingyuan Mountain, but when he heard this, he staggered and almost fell down.

"Uncle An died of poisoning, and Aunt An drew her sword to commit suicide. There is no one alive in the An family except you." Gu Qingquan choked up, "And you, what are you doing?"

"You're holding your head back like a quail. Could it be that Uncle An and Aunt An are alive? Could Feng Rulie be killed by this?"

"Uncle An named you 'Songyue'. He said that pine trees have a tall and straight posture, and mountains have an unshakable ambition. I hope you can be as pine as a mountain, and the wind and snow will not fall down, and the years will not move. Do you deserve the name?"

"Isn't it that the eyes can't see? You still have ears, you still have a mouth, you still have hands and feet. Isn't it just that you can't use 'Mei Shi'? You can use other weapons. You lie like this every day and pretend to be dead. , are you worthy of Uncle An and Aunt An? Are you worthy of the lives of more than 100 people in the An family? Are you worthy of yourself?"

Gu Qingquan's words smashed into his ears like thunder, causing his eardrums to hurt.He thought of his parents' earnest teachings to him, and eagerly looked forward to them, thinking of their deaths at the hands of others, but he gave up on himself and ignored the blood and deep hatred.Even if he died now, what face would he have to face his parents in the underworld, and what face would he have to face the more than 130 members of the An clan who died tragically under Feng Rulie's hands?

He was wrong, he was really wrong.

He fell down in front of his parents' grave, weeping bitterly.

Gu Qingquan leaned down and hugged him, choked up and said: "You still have me, I will be with you, I will be your eyes, and I will always be with you."

Qingquan: Big brother! (clasping fists)

Songyue: ...Big, big girl?
