Chapter 44 A Ripple
The front is still covered with white fog that makes it difficult to see the road ahead.
Gu Huan looked at the team, Tang Zhi dragged the half-dead fox back to its original form, and Lin Jian carried He Changsheng on his back.He Changsheng's feet were swinging back and forth in the air, and his arms were around Lin Jian's neck.
At this time, the four people here have not encountered any major trials in life, have not changed in any way, and are simply walking on the road.
No matter how dark the sky is, no matter how howling the wind, the clouds gather, portending a storm.
When the thunder sounded, Lin Jian found that the hand that was loosely around his neck suddenly tightened a little. He Changsheng buried his head deeper into Lin Jian's back, as if he wanted to avoid something.
Lin Jian looked back at He Changsheng curiously.
He Changsheng almost kept the same posture, waiting obediently.
The momentary fear that Lin Jian felt seemed to be just an illusion.
Is He Changsheng afraid of thunderstorms?
"We have only been separated for six years." He Changsheng spoke suddenly.
Lin Jian was startled by his sudden voice.
"Why did you become like this?" He Changsheng had many doubts.
When Lin Jian heard his question, he just wanted to laugh.He often felt that He Changsheng knew a lot, and often felt that he didn't understand more, so he told him patiently, just like before: "Six years is a long time."
"How can it be a long time?" He Changsheng retorted him, "It takes six years for a small sapling to grow into a big tree, and the water in the sea is dried by the sun in six years. Unaware, every mountain is still the same. Six years, how can it be a long time?"
"Brother, is the reference you used wrong?" Lin Jian was really powerless to complain. From a certain angle, he really admired He Changsheng. There were so many things in front of him, how could he always choose the best one? The unbelievable batch, "A flower bloomed six times in six years, and died six times. The smoke music pool has been renovated in six years. The roof made of wood has experienced wind and rain, Recently, it has been bitten by termites and there is a possibility that it may collapse. Six years is a long time."
"Is it enough for a child to grow into an adult?" He Changsheng asked.
Lin Jian fell silent for a moment.
Sometimes He Changsheng's words never got to the point, he insisted on citing scriptures and talking nonsense before he calmly threw the bomb.
What he cares about is not whether six years is long or not, nor is it that six years can change anything?
Rather, why did Lin Jian grow into an appearance he had never seen in the six years since he disappeared.
His thoughts were too convoluted, Lin Jian thought for a while before he understood, and he pursed his lips and smiled sullenly.
The corner of He Changsheng's mouth twitched.
He did not say anything wrong.
"Big brother." Tang Zhi ran over with the fox in his arms and said with a smile, "When I was six years old, I didn't have any doubts about these questions."
"Yes, yes, when you were six years old, you could memorize hundreds of ancient poems by heart, and you could read and write articles." Gu Huan, who had heard too much bragging from Tang Zhi, said in a cool tone.
Tang Zhi picked out her hair proudly.
"But after coming to Fuxi Academy, I don't see you as a genius." Gu Huan said.
"Oh, well..." Tang Zhi said, "I have always avoided becoming the protagonist or hero of an era, or a story. I don't want to sacrifice myself, let myself struggle with pain, and I don't want too many joys and sorrows. Just In this way, in this world, I am already very excited to be a little bit of a walk-on. As long as I can step on the face of the senior brother occasionally, the chef in the cafeteria of Fuxiyuan will not shake his hands when serving food, and it will not rain when he goes out without an umbrella. I'm very satisfied."
While chatting, they left the fox's lair.
They first sent the cheated girls home one by one, and then handed over the captured foxes to Dongchangmen wandering in the city. Dongchangmen is a school of imperial monsters, which is most suitable for dealing with these monsters.
With a thought in He Changsheng's mind, he suddenly felt that he should report the progress to Bai Wuxi and Zhaoshuiqing.
Seeing that they had listened to the whole process of his being deflated on the road, Lin also wanted to greet that wonderful couple.But when they came to the Baijia mentioned by He Changsheng, they were surprised to find that there was no one living here.
Tang Zhi hurriedly went to ask the neighbors about the situation, and soon came back with news.
There used to be a family living here, but before the family traveled, they encountered an accident on the road and all died.
This little episode made the already overcast sky even more chilly.
"I'll send a message later to ask the disciples of Fuxi Academy to find out what's going on." Lin Jian told He Changsheng not to worry.
He Changsheng yawned and lay on Lin Jian's back, seemingly not worried at all.
A group of people are going to the inn.
On the eve of the storm, a horse dragged a cart without a roof and walked quickly on the side of the road.
"Hahahaha." Sitting in the carriage, Zhao Shuiqing let out a joyful laugh regardless of the black clouds above her head and the thunder and lightning.He laughed and slapped his thigh, obviously very happy.
Sitting behind him, Bai Wuxi took off the jewelry on her head helplessly, she was indeed a woman.
"Did you see the expression on He Changsheng's face? I'm dying of laughter." He said, "It's different from what Shi Donglin said, He Changsheng is nothing to be afraid of, he's so stupid hahahaha."
"With you lunatic, no amount of life is enough." Bai Wuxi looked at Zhao Shuiqing helplessly.
Zhao Shuiqing laughed enough and sat down with her stomach in her arms.
Lightning streaked across the sky.
Those who do things with a guilty conscience should be afraid of thunder.
Zhao Shuiqing is not afraid, because he knows that he will not be struck to death by lightning.
"You shouldn't startle the snake." Bai Wuxi objected to his approach, "Shi Donglin asked us to hold him back, because of you, both of us have exposed our looks, and He Changsheng and the other three disciples of Fuxi Academy met We can no longer appear aboveboard."
Teru Shuiqing took off the slightly oversized clothes on her body, then closed her eyes, smelling the clothes intoxicatedly.
"Zhaoshuiqing..." Bai Wuxi called him helplessly, and then changed back into a fox.
This is a real vixen, and his practice is far higher than those fairies in the town just now.It's not enough to rely on her practice and it's not enough to hide it from He Changsheng's eyes, all of this is thanks to the Mixiang used by Teroshuiqing.
"What do you want to do next?" Bai Wuxi huddled into a ball, nestling beside Zhao Shuiqing.
"Continue to carry out Shi Donglin's mission." He said, "Delay time."
They all knew why they dragged the people from Fuxiyuan, so they knew it immediately.
"What are you delaying for time?" A cold voice entered Zhao Shuiqing's ear.
This voice, which they were familiar with, came from He Changsheng.
Zhao Shuiqing and Bai Wuxi looked around vigilantly as if they were facing an enemy.
Around them, there are only endless green reeds blown by the wind.
The pond rippled as raindrops fell from the sky.
"Can't you find me?" He Changsheng's voice was mocking, "You're nothing more than that."
He returned Zhao Shuiqing's sarcasm just now.
Zhao Shuiqing stood up on the car, with her hand on the long sword at her waist.
"It's just an unknown person, why are you barking?"
All the fox fur on Bai Wuxi's body stood up, she looked up, and finally understood where the voice came from, she quickly reminded: "On your shoulder!"
Zhao Shuiqing looked over her shoulder.
A paper figurine stood on his shoulder, holding Zhao Shuiqing's hair with one hand to prevent the strong wind from blowing him away.
This is the paper figurine that He Changsheng has been carrying around.
Not only Zhao Shuiqing, Bai Wuxi also got a paper figurine from his orange-red hair.
The two paper figurines have no facial expressions or facial features, only the postures cut into simple shapes.
They stared at Zhao Shuiqing and Bai Wuxi.
When the two looked at the paper figurine, they felt as if they were being watched by He Changsheng.
This is He Changsheng's paper figurine, and it has been following them for some time.
"Aren't you going to tell me?" The paper figurine uttered a calm threat in response to their silence.
"If I don't tell you, what can you do?" Zhao Shuiqing raised her hand, trying to grab the paper figurine standing on her shoulder, "You are not He Changsheng, you are just a lifeless piece of paper."
The fox also quickly swept it with its big tail, trying to get rid of the paper stuck to its body.
The wind howled.
The two paper figurines let go of their hands, and in an instant, they were blown away by the wind, avoiding their hands and tails.
The two sheets were blown away together.
"Really?" He Changsheng's voice became farther and farther away, "Then next time we meet, I will pay you back. Be careful on the road, a storm is coming."
His voice became smaller and smaller, and suddenly, the horses pulling the cart roared into the sky.
"Until then, watch my eyes."
Before Zhaoshuiqing and Bai Wuxi knew what happened, the rope connecting the horse and the cart broke suddenly, and the horse seemed to have seen something frightening, and ran away quickly.The cart and horse were separated, and the carriage fell to the floor in an instant.
Zhao Shuiqing hugged the fox and jumped out of the carriage.
There are still only tall reeds that can block adults around, but no one knows what is hidden in the reeds.
He Changsheng's words hinted at a certain kind of fear to them, making them wonder if there was a trap hidden somewhere they couldn't see.
This is the price of playing He Changsheng.
After a while, the storm came.
Lin Jian carried He Changsheng on his back, came to the inn, returned to his room, and put him down.
He Changsheng closed his eyes halfway, as if he had fallen asleep.
Lin Jian admired him a little, he could sleep like this.
The wind was blowing against the windows, and there was a sound of window slamming.
After Lin Jian helped He Changsheng cover the quilt, he immediately went to close the window.Just as the window was about to close, a paper figure suddenly appeared from the crack of the door. He held the window and looked up at Lin Jian.
"It's you?" Lin Jian saw the paper figurine and closed the window.
The paper figurine held on to the window, and after a while, another piece of paper jumped in from the outside, its body was a little wet.
It was already raining outside, and it was dark inside the house.
After they all came in, Lin Jian closed the window.
Seeing Lin Jian, the paper figurine climbed onto his shoulder affectionately, and then wiped the raindrops with his clothes.After wiping off all the rain on their bodies, they clapped their hands and ran away.
Lin Jian laughed.
He Changsheng's paper figurine has the same personality as him.
Lin Jian lit a candle in the room.
The two paper figurines immediately gathered over, trying to dry off the rain on their bodies.
Lin Jian simply lit a fire talisman to make it easier for them to warm up.
The two paper figurines were jumping happily, looking very satisfied.
"Among the two of you..." Lin Jian remembered something and asked, "Is there the one who accompanied me to the sword forest to get the sword?"
It was the first time the two paper figurines heard about such a thing, they looked at Lin Jian neatly, then shook their heads.
Not them.
Lin Jian tilted his head slightly, and the ponytail swung under the light of the flames
While the two paper figurines were warming up by the fire, the other two paper figurines that had been quietly placed in He Changsheng's arms also ran out.
The four paper figurines held hands and circled happily.
"Among you, which one is the paper figurine who accompanied me to get the sword?" Lin Jian interacted with them curiously.
As soon as his question came out, the four paper figurines all looked at him.
Just when Lin Jian thought he was about to get the answer, there was a rubbing of clothes in the room.
The four paper figurines ran back immediately.
A slender hand stretched out, and four paper figurines jumped onto his hand.
He Changsheng shook his hand vigorously, and in an instant, the four paper figurines really turned into pure paper, which he held between his fingers.
"You are not allowed to chat with my paper figurine." He Changsheng can only be hit for a limited time, and once he returns to normal, he will be unhuman.After transforming the paper, He Changsheng put the paper figurine back into his bag.
"Why can't I chat with them?" Lin Jian thought it was funny.
"Because they are mine."
"I'm your junior, and I'm also your property. Since it's all your property, why not talk about it?" Lin Jian walked to He Changsheng's side and sat down on the edge of the bed while talking.
"Don't get too close." He Changsheng frowned, and couldn't help leaning back a little.
"What are you disgusting about?" Lin Jian didn't back away, but moved closer to him, "We haven't seen each other for so long, isn't this too fickle?"
He Changsheng's expression was indescribable.
Lin Jian's face moved closer to He Changsheng's, but he kept He Changsheng's bottom line to the greatest extent and never touched him.
The two were so close that their breath could be entangled with each other.
He Changsheng turned his head away, averted his gaze, and couldn't help but say what was in his heart: "I'm really not used to that cute kid growing up all at once."
"Ah?" Lin Jian was taken aback, and then laughed out loud.
He laughed so hard that he fell on He Changsheng's shoulder.
He Changsheng felt that he should push him away, but the fan was put in the bag together with the umbrella.
Lin Jian smiled on He Changsheng's shoulder, the warm touch was like a hot bun thrown into your arms in winter.
Thunder roared outside, and the light of lightning was reflected outside the window.
He Changsheng closed his eyes in fear.
Lin Jian was still smiling in his arms.
He Changsheng suddenly didn't want Lin Jian to leave.
If there is a lightning strike, please strike this person first.
he thought mercilessly.
Lin Jian raised his head suddenly.
He Changsheng suppressed his urge to push him back.
"Let's take a look." Lin Jian suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed He Changsheng's cheek.
He Changsheng: "..."
His face was flattened.
Lin Jian squinted his eyes and leaned over to look at him by the candlelight.
He Changsheng said, "Quick... let go of your hand, do you want to die?"
"Did you think I was cute when I was young?" Lin Jian's ability to grasp the key points has always been very good.
He Changsheng was dumbfounded, then he recalled what he said, and started to pretend to be dead.
"I also want you to watch me grow up, but you never came back. Everyone sent people to inquire about the news, and they only knew that you were in the east, and then in the north, and walked on the edge of the sea all of a sudden. Suddenly, I was on the plateau with thick snow. I asked Master, what are you going to do? After I asked, he threw me a book, Responsibilities and Precautions for People Walking in the Fuxi Academy. I read it In the future, I still don’t know what you are doing. And according to the guidelines, walkers should contact the courtyard on time, and you completely lost track of you in the third year.”
"Hiss, is it? I forgot." He Changsheng suddenly realized.
Lin Jian let go of his hand and looked at him helplessly.
He Changsheng despised him.
"What else do you want to say?"
"But cultivators can choose to stay young forever, and you can keep your 13-year-old appearance." He Changsheng suggested.
Now it was Lin Jian's turn to despise him, "Why would I do this?"
"Heh, mortal." He Changsheng knew he didn't understand, "When everyone grows up, they wish they hadn't grown up. I've seen too many of them."
"People who don't want to grow up do so because their childhood was good, or not bad. I can't call it a good childhood." Lin Jian stretched out his hand and grabbed a lock of He Changsheng's hair.
He Changsheng immediately went to take his hand.
He Changsheng is a soldier who can be killed, but his hair cannot be pulled out.
"I think growing up is much better than being a child." Lin Jian concluded.
He Changsheng didn't answer, he was checking the hair that Lin Jian touched just now.
Lin Jian supported the bed board helplessly.
He Changsheng's performance didn't change at all, he didn't know whether to make him happy or unhappy.
Of course he likes He Changsheng like this, but He Changsheng like this doesn't seem like someone can leave a different place in his heart.
There is only one person He Changsheng cares about forever, and that is himself.
Big brother, big brother.
Lin Jian thought in admiration.
How on earth can you live like this?
Lin sighed imperceptibly, then stood up from the bed.
"Where are you going?" He Changsheng asked immediately.
"This one is my room."
"Are you going to ask for a new room for me?" He Changsheng looked at Lin Jian in relief.
"No, I'm going to ask for an extra quilt. My senior brothers and sisters and I came out, and the second senior uncle only gave us three people's activity funds, and there was no money for one more person, so you have to live with me."
"You can't live with other people, so give me the room?" He Changsheng asked.
Lin Jian sighed, then turned around and faced He Changsheng.
He Changsheng sat on the bed and looked up at him, draped like black silk.
"Although Fifth Senior Sister looks like that, she is a woman and can only sleep alone. You have no doubts about this, right?" Lin Jian taught He Changsheng as if he was teaching a child.
He Changsheng nodded.
"Fourth senior brother broke his hand just now, taking care of the wounded and letting him sleep alone, you don't have any doubts, do you?"
He Changsheng said honestly, "I have some doubts."
"If you still have doubts, I won't help you with the Fourth Senior Brother and Fifth Senior Sister."
"Okay, I have no doubts." He Changsheng nodded.
Lin Jian continued to walk away until he left the room.
After he left, the four paper figurines in He Changsheng's arms came out immediately.
A thunderbolt struck from outside.
The four paper figurines shivered and huddled in He Changsheng's arms.
"Is it useful for you to hide from me?" He Changsheng scolded them for being unintelligent, "I'm afraid too!"
When Lin Jian went down to ask for a quilt, he happened to meet Tang Zhi who was eating and drinking in the lobby.
"Fourth senior brother..." Lin Jian found that although he couldn't move one hand for the time being, he was still in a happy mood. He was really envious.
"Hahaha, you asked to take care of senior brother, so don't complain." Tang Zhi laughed.He didn't need to ask, he could guess the reason for Lin Jian's deflated expression.
"I never complained about taking care of him." Lin Jian disliked Tang Zhi for not being smart enough.
"Oh oh oh, what else can I do?" Tang Zhi had no thoughts.
In a sense, Tang Zhi and He Changsheng are the same kind of people.
Because it was impossible to beat He Changsheng to vent his anger, Lin Jian changed to bullying Tang Zhi.
"It hurts, it hurts, let it go." Tang Zhi's hand was pulled, and he couldn't hold the noodles.
Lin Jianjian talked to Tang Zhi about his troubles.
"Oh oh oh, you just think that senior brother doesn't care about you at all, you're lost, right? Senior senior..." Tang Zhi still doesn't think there is a problem, "But don't be discouraged, I have an important discovery, wait for me to drink I'll tell you when the soup is finished."
Tang Zhi picked up the bowl with one hand and gulped down the soup.
"Guest officer, the quilt is ready." The waiter greeted Lin Jian.
"Thank you Fourth Senior Brother for your kindness. You can drink it slowly and ignore me." Lin Jian patted Tang Zhi's shoulder helplessly, hugged the quilt and left.
Tang Zhi: "..."
If you don't listen to him, you will lose.
However, according to Lin Jian's mentality, if he knew something from him earlier, the impact would not be that great.If he found out by himself, the elder brother would be able to general him in an instant.
"Tut tut".Love in this world is really unreasonable. Fortunately, he is just an ordinary soy sauce character.
There was lightning and thunder outside. I don't know how the storm came suddenly.
Tang Zhi and the others were rushing to a certain place, but they wondered if they would be late because of the storm.
When sleeping at night, Lin Jian was lying on the floor, listening to He Changsheng's breathing on the bed.
He Changsheng's sleeping posture has always been very good.
Lin Jian suddenly thought why he was so disappointed, he knew better than anyone else what kind of person He Changsheng was.
After thinking it over clearly, Lin Jian suddenly closed his eyes with He Changsheng's sad state of mind that he would never understand this kind of heart, and prepared to sleep.
but……
But what about him...
"Boom!" An earth-shattering thunder sounded from the sky.
"Boom." At the same time, something suddenly fell to the floor.
Lin Jian was startled and turned around to take a look.
He Changsheng's quilt fell to the ground.
Just when Lin Jian was about to get up to help him pick up the quilt, He Changsheng rolled along the quilt to the floor.
Lin Jian: "..."
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he really couldn't believe what his eyes saw.
After falling to the floor, He Changsheng rolled around again, just leaning next to Lin Jian.
Lin Jian was taken aback.
He Changsheng leaned on his arm, his eyes still closed.The act of falling out of bed didn't wake him up.
Lin Jian opened the quilt, pulled it over, and pulled him into the quilt as well.
The thunder continued.
Lin Jian lay quietly, listening to the thunder, and unconsciously, He Changsheng hugged his arm.
This is really the same effect as the five thunders.
Lin Jian stretched out his hand and touched He Changsheng's hair that he wouldn't let others touch when he was awake.
In fact, He Changsheng didn't dislike him touching his hair. He reacted a lot today. It is said that he disliked Lin Jiangang for grabbing the candlestick and not washing his hands.
Lin Jian stroked his head, and then ran down his hair, just like a cat's fur.
He Changsheng's throat moved.
Lin Jian let go, closed his eyes and went to sleep.
The next day, when He Changsheng woke up, he was on the bed, and Lin Jian was no longer in the room.
Following his usual trajectory, it was time for him to brush his hair.
With sleepy eyes, He Changsheng picked up a jade hairpin, casually rolled up his hair, removed the silver bracelets from his hands, and replaced them with jade bracelets.He yawned and went downstairs with his clothes on.
When he went down, he saw Lin Jian getting ready to go out.
"Where are you going?" He Changsheng asked.
"After the rain stops, we're going to start our journey. I'll go buy some things for the road," Lin Jian said.
"It's still raining now." He Changsheng reminded him.
"Well, the shopkeeper said he has an umbrella, I'm waiting for him to find it for me." Lin Jian replied.
"Umbrella?" He Changsheng suddenly remembered, "I also have an umbrella."
"Really? Then lend it to me." The rain has been too heavy these two days.
When He Changsheng heard this, he quickly returned to his room, and took an umbrella for Lin Jian who was standing at the door.
Seeing that Lin took the umbrella He Changsheng gave him and was about to open it, he suddenly sighed again and asked He Changsheng who was standing aside: "What do you want? I'll buy it together."
The person you choose to like, you have to suffer.
He Changsheng looked at the sky, thought about it seriously, and then shook his head.
"Go back to your room and wait for me. You stand at the door, and the rain will wet your clothes later." Lin Jian reminded him, "If you are ready to eat, I have already told the waiter, and he will bring it to you. "
"You are really good." He Changsheng gave him a thumbs up in satisfaction.
"I am so kind to you, you will treat me better anytime." Lin Jian joked while opening the umbrella in his hand.
Dilapidated wisteria flowers are sparse.
Lin Jian was taken aback.
The umbrella he opened was torn, and it was broken in one piece in the east and the other in the west. If you block it, you will be drenched from head to tail.
"Dare to ask senior brother?" Seeing a patterned smile on his face, Lin turned to look at He Changsheng.
Could it be that he was hated by He Changsheng?
"By the way, this is something you've been carrying on your back tied to Mirror Flower and Water Moon, right? Why do you keep carrying a broken umbrella?" Lin Jian turned the umbrella in his hand a little strangely, and looked up in surprise, "This The umbrella is not in line with your taste, Senior Brother, and you are not someone who can carry broken things, is it a fairy umbrella?"
Why does this umbrella seem familiar?
"I'll give it back to you." He Changsheng said.
Lin Jian was stunned.
"When I left Fuxi Courtyard, you asked Tang Zhi to give me the umbrella." He Changsheng told him.
The hand turning the umbrella stopped suddenly.
"Hmm..." He Changsheng was thinking seriously, "When did it break, it seemed to be when it rained, the wind was too strong, or when it snowed, it was smashed... I didn't expect it to be completely unusable, I'm sorry, you'd better wait for the shopkeeper to help you find an umbrella."
He Changsheng's voice caught his ears, and Lin Jian kept looking up at the umbrella with a silly look.
If I can have a slight difference in his heart, if there is a slight ripple...
