Chapter 8
Chapter 8
When Lin Yue woke up from the coma, he found himself lying on a soft and clean bed with the most familiar gentle smile in front of him.
"Big brother" has a very hoarse voice, but his mood is extremely excited. "It's really you, you've been waiting in the underworld for where my father is? I've done so many stupid things, I thought you didn't want me anymore..."
He continued talking intermittently, crying and laughing, but he was hit on the forehead by the handle of the fan very quickly.
Looking up, Li Fenglai was looking at him with a half-smile, and lazily said: "Stupid boy, why are you still not dead?"
Huh?
Lin Yue was stunned, and reached out to touch the palm of his elder brother Lin Chen, it was indeed warm.
The eldest brother is sitting in front of him alive, is he not dead?
He was agitated for a while and struggled to sit up, but the knife wound on his chest was involved, and he fell back immediately.
"Aren't you all dead?" Lin Yue blinked, his expression very bewildered. "The dungeon was burned down, how could it be..."
Lin Chen covered the ground with a smile and said softly, "Actually, we escaped from the Devil's Cult that night. It's just that you passed out and were hugged by the leader. You really couldn't be rescued. Taking the overall situation into consideration, I had no choice but to take everyone away first. Although I have been trying to save people, but the demon sect is heavily guarded, and it is impossible to break in."
"That's right." Li Fenglai nodded, and echoed from the side: "Your elder brother has been guarding outside for more than half a month, and he doesn't think about tea or food all day long, and he doesn't even sleep with me..."
"Ahem." Lin Chen turned to stare at him.
Li Fenglai giggled, and immediately changed his words: "Fortunately, I am extremely clever and clever, and finally managed to rescue you."
Lin Yue was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and he was still a little confused: "But I clearly stabbed myself, how could I not die?"
Li Fenglai winked at Lin Chen, and said with a smile, "Forgot that I have a friend who is a genius doctor? It's thanks to him that he cured you back to life. I put so much effort into saving people when I'm disabled, I should call him a good brother."
Lin Chen stretched out his hand to touch Lin Yue's cheek, stared at him with full eyes, and sighed softly, "It's all the elder brother's fault for causing you to suffer so much."
Lin Yue's heart fluttered, and his warm and soft emotions spread, and he hurriedly said: "I am the one who is wrong! I have done so many stupid things, which made you and father worry. I will be obedient and obedient in the future, and I will never make you angry."
Speaking of emotion, the eye sockets turned red again.
Hearing this, a strange look flashed in Lin Chen's eyes, and he asked tentatively, "Including...forgot that person"
Lin Yue was stunned and did not speak.
A dull pain in the chest.
Is it because of the injury, or because of Xu Qing
He closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, and responded in a low voice: "There is no balance between good and evil, not to mention that person has never liked me, and I will never miss him again."
As soon as he finished speaking, the voice in his heart sounded again, clamoring: I like him!
Lin Yue gritted his teeth and forced himself to drive Xu Qing's figure out of his mind.
Even if you like it, so what. This heart can never be conveyed, and there are still so many obstacles in front of you.
like him.
forget about him.
Under Lin Chen's careful care, Lin Yue's injury quickly recovered.
Although he went through this ordeal, his temperament did not change much. Once his body recovered, he ran around bouncing around again, with bright eyes and a bright smile.
During this time, the handsome young owner of Qiushui Village has been staying in Yangzhou.Lin Yue inevitably met him several times, and later found out that the man's name was Shen Ruoshui. Although he looked very arrogant, his kung fu was just as good as him.
The two young people are about the same age, similar in martial arts, and like-minded - they both hate that rascal Li Fenglai, and often get together to curse.Cursing and cursing, they actually became close friends. When they had free time, they would hang out together in Yangzhou City, nicknamed "Xing Chivalry".
It was a beautiful spring day, and Shen Ruoshui came to play with Lin Yue again.
Lin Yue was idle and bored, so naturally he happily went out with him, wandering all the way here and there, having a great time.Just thinking that his father was furious about his elder brother and Li Fenglai, he was always a little worried.
Unexpectedly, Shen Ruoshui was also somewhat absent-minded, and sighed a few times from time to time.
Lin Yue knew what he was thinking, and couldn't help asking: "I haven't reconciled with your senior brother yet."
"Huh," Shen Ruoshui curled his lips impatiently, and said, "That guy actually went to teach Miss Zhang's kung fu, and he will be ignored even if he is killed."
"Ahem," Lin Yue rubbed his nose and couldn't help reminding, "Miss Zhang is only ten years old this year."
This jealousy is too unreasonable.
Unexpectedly, Shen Ruoshui's eyes widened, and he said seriously: "Although I'm only ten years old now, I don't know if I will like him in the future. I was only seven years old when I met my brother, and it turned out not to be for him." cheated
"..." Lin Yue choked, speechless for a while.
Shen Ruoshui didn't want to mention it any more, so he simply took Lin Yue's arm and continued on his way.
People come and go on the street, very lively.
As he walked, Lin Yue suddenly felt something was wrong.Although walking in the lively crowd, I always feel that there is a line of sight wrapped around me, which is extremely uncomfortable.
He turned his head and looked around frequently.
How do you know it's okay if you don't look at it, but something happens when you look at it.
... and saw a figure that looked exactly like Xu Qing.
In the past few months, his eyes have been dazzled at every turn, and he often thinks that he has seen the person he has been thinking about day and night.
That's right, although he didn't say it out loud, he never forgot Xu Qing.
However, that person is far away in the Western Regions, how could he appear in Yangzhou?
Thinking this way in his heart, he still broke free from Shen Ruoshui's hand, turned around and caught up with that figure.
Knowing that he just misses him too much, knowing that he is only dazzled, but his body is completely out of control, like many times before, he keeps catching up.
"Xu Qing!"
He yelled, but after looking around, it was all just strangers.
Sure enough, it was an illusion again.
Lin Yue gasped for breath, and felt that he had lost all his strength for a moment, and he was almost about to collapse.It was hard to hold on, and I walked back with my head down.
He promised his father and elder brother to be obedient.
He said he would forget about that person.
Shouldn't think so!
Do not think!
Can't think!
He said to himself over and over in his heart, but his hands and feet couldn't be controlled. After walking in a daze for a while, he suddenly changed direction and rushed towards the river.In the end, before he could do anything, he saw a figure rushing obliquely from the side, hugging his waist.
The man had excellent lightness skills, and after a few ups and downs, he gently and deftly led Lin Yue away from the river, then flicked his sleeves, turned around and left.
Lin Yue had been prepared for a long time, and quickly grabbed the man's arm, walked around to him, stared at his face with wide eyes, and gritted his teeth: "It really is you."
Sure enough, it was Xu Qing.
I haven't seen him for several months, but his complexion still hasn't improved, his face is pale, his expression is pale, and his dark eyes are dark.Even under the bright sun, it looks ghostly and creepy.
But Lin Yue felt that he was really beautiful.
Full of tenderness overflowed from the chest, no matter how you look at it, you like it.
like him.
Even though he was hurt so deeply and so badly, even if he tried his best to find excuses, he still couldn't forget him.
Lin Yue sighed, and looked at Xu Qing quietly, after a long time, he asked, "Why did you come to Yangzhou?"
"Nothing, just wanted to see."
"Why are you avoiding me on purpose?" The backs that I vaguely saw before were all Xu Qing, right?
Xu Qing didn't answer, she looked at Lin Yue very softly, her voice was hoarse: "You are doing well now."
For some reason, this plain and simple sentence seemed to have a bit of bitterness.
Lin Yue was startled, nodded and smiled: "Yeah, I've listened to my father and elder brother very much recently, and I haven't caused any trouble. And I practice martial arts obediently every day, and my kung fu is much better than before. I just learned a new set yesterday. Swordsmanship..."
As he spoke, his voice gradually lowered, he stared straight at Xu Qing, and asked, "How are you?"
Xu Qing still didn't answer, but slowly raised her hand, as if she wanted to touch Lin Yue's cheek.But only stretched halfway, then quickly retracted it, and said softly, "I'm sorry."
It was clear that there were thousands of words, but the last thing to say was this sentence.
Lin Yue immediately felt a tightness in his chest, shook his head, and smiled again: "I have almost forgotten about the past. I am very well now, and I hope you are also well, stop frowning all day long .”
After a pause, she bit her lip heavily, stretched out her hand to touch Xu Qing's eyebrows, and said, "Whether you believe it or not, there are always people in this world who treat you sincerely. That Mr. Cheng... likes you very much."
Xu Qing's expression froze, she suddenly grabbed Lin Yue's hand, looked at him firmly, and said word by word: "There have been people who really liked me."
The light in his black eyes flowed, and the corners of his eyes and brows were dyed with enchanting charm, which was very touching.
Lin Yue stared blankly, speechless for a moment.
It's only been a few months, how come it seems like a lifetime has passed?Just looking at it like this, it seems that I will always be addicted to it, and I can't escape it.
In a trance, I saw Xu Qing slowly let go of her hand, and sighed in a low voice: "Unfortunately, I have already pushed it away with my own hands."
Lin Yue's heart was suffocated, and he opened his mouth to speak, but he couldn't speak.
Xu Qing turned her head to look elsewhere, her face twisted a little, but then she returned to normal, and said calmly, "He's here to look for you."
ah?who?
Lin Yue blinked his eyes, looked back, and realized that Shen Ruoshui had come over.
"Ah, it's almost time for me to go." He lowered his head, although he said so, his feet seemed to be stuck to the ground, and he refused to move.
Xu Qing was extremely silent, just looking at him quietly, her eyes were deep and heavy, truly tender like water.
Lin Yue didn't dare to look at him directly. After taking a deep breath, he finally turned around and walked towards Shen Ruoshui.
Step by step.
Never had it been so difficult.
She obviously likes him, why did she turn around and leave?
turn back.turn back.
Whether it's love or hate, no matter whether you will be hurt or not, don't ask about the cause or the consequences, just turn around like this, for the one you love... make another bet without thinking about yourself!
Lin Yue's fingers trembled so badly that he almost stopped, but suddenly he heard Xu Qing calling from behind: "Xiao Yue."
His heart was beating wildly, and he turned his head immediately, with a smile on his face.
Xu Qing also smiled, coughed a few times, and said, "I will leave Yangzhou soon."
Lin Yue's heart sank, and he was a little dazed.
Xu Qing went on to say: "So, can you walk around Yangzhou City with me tomorrow?"
"Huh?" Lin Yue was still in a daze.
Xu Qing thought he was unwilling, so she suppressed her forced smile, her eyes misty, and said softly: "You promised me before."
His tone was light and soft, as if he was extremely wronged.
Hearing this, Lin Yue immediately yelled "Ah".
He remembered.
When Xu Qing was entangled with him, he had happily described the beauty of Yangzhou City, with people coming and going during the day and bright lights at night.He also said that he would hold Xu Qing's hand to swim in the lake, and the two of them would set off fireworks and eat candied haws together.
It was so sweet at that time, I mistakenly thought that they were in love with each other, mistakenly thought that... could be here forever.
Unexpectedly, he and him only have such a one-day fate.
Thinking about it, Lin Yue's chest felt a sharp pain again.He hastily raised his hand and pressed it, and whispered to himself: It's just the old injury recurring, it doesn't hurt.
Then she turned her head to look at Xu Qing, smiled slightly, and said: "Okay, tomorrow morning, you will wait for me in the bamboo forest outside the city."
As soon as Xu Qing heard it, the light in his eyes lit up again, and the tenderness like water made people dare not look at him directly.
If it wasn't for Shen Ruoshui getting closer, Lin Yue wouldn't want to leave at all.Even if she turned around reluctantly, she couldn't help turning her head back frequently, reluctantly walking out of Xu Qing's sight.
Xu Qing stood still at the same place until Lin Yue's figure disappeared, and then she sighed softly, her face turned gray again, even a little paler than before, and her whole body was on the verge of collapse.
There was a slight tingling pain in his hand, and he looked down, only to find that his nails were sunken deep in his palm, already stained with blood.
Is it because the relationship is too tense?
He was afraid to see the deep hatred in Lin Yue's eyes again.
On that day a few months ago, he was knocked down by Li Fenglai's palm and fell into a coma for several days before waking up.Then, regardless of whether the injury had healed or not, he rushed all the way to Yangzhou, looking at Lin Yue from afar.
That's right, he was so close at hand, but he didn't even have the guts to say a word to Lin Yue face to face.He could only quietly stay aside, watching Lin Yue recover gradually, laughing and jumping, happily holding other people's hands and going out to have fun.
If Lin Yue had never met him, he should have been able to be this happy forever, right?
Fortunately, it's not too late now.
From beginning to end, the only one who missed was himself.
So Xu Qing wandered all over Yangzhou City, Slender West Lake, 24th Bridge...all the places that Lin Yue had described, he walked over one by one, imagining two people holding hands, each eating candied haws.
Those happiness are almost at your fingertips.
But it happened to be destroyed by his own hands. In the end, there was only one day's fate left.
Thinking of this, my chest throbbed sharply.
But Xu Qing seemed to be used to this kind of pain, she didn't even frown, she just coughed a few times, turned around, and walked out of the city step by step.
During the time he followed Lin Yue, he saw that Lin Yue had been to the bamboo forest several times, and he knew that there was a small bamboo house there, so he went in and sat down, waiting quietly.
We made an appointment to meet tomorrow morning.
Xu Qing didn't even want to sleep anymore, so she just sat silently, tapped her fingers on the table, and watched the sky outside the window turn from bright to dark, and then from dark to bright again.
We will see Lin Yue soon.
But what if we meet each other?The two of them walked around this circle and spent this day relatively silently, and then they will never see each other again?Or, is he still following Lin Yue like a shadow?
Should let go.
As early as the moment Lin Yue plunged the knife into his chest, all his love and hatred disappeared, why is he still obsessed with it?
I have already seen the intimacy between Lin Yue and the young owner of Qiushui Village, why did my heart still beat so hard when I saw him, and I couldn't hide the full of affection?
Xu Qing was so focused on her thoughts that she didn't even know it was dawn. She didn't come back to her senses until she heard the sound of scattered footsteps outside.He has excellent hearing, and he immediately noticed something was wrong - there was definitely more than one person here, and all of them were not weak in martial arts.
In the early morning, there shouldn't be so many martial arts practitioners coming to this remote place to hang out, right?
unless……
Xu Qing shook her hand, feeling the qi and blood in her body churning, she barely stood up, walked to the window and looked out.
At a glance, he saw a handsome young man in brocade attire, with a long sword on his waist, and his eyebrows were synonymous. He was both dignified and beautiful. He was the young owner of Qiushuizhuang.The rest of the people don't know much, and they are probably the so-called chivalrous people in the world.
Xu Qing glanced at each face and looked at each face, but in the end she didn't find Lin Yue.
Why, he didn't come.
Don't you even want to see yourself for the last time?
Xu Qing twitched the corners of her mouth, sighed in disappointment, then pushed open the door, and walked out with her hands behind her back.He was dressed in black, his face was pale, and he looked really fragile.But there was a bewitching look between those exquisite eyebrows and eyes, and the dark eyes were dark and dark, and his face was full of sternness, with an imposing manner.
Shen Ruoshui was stunned, took the lead to take a step forward, and shouted loudly: "Demon Cult monster! You used to bully Xiaoyue enough, but now you still dare to pester him? I will make you die without a burial today! "
Xu Qing looked calm, stood there motionless, and only asked softly: "He asked you to kill me?"
"That's right."
"Isn't he coming today?"
"Of course, Xiao Yue doesn't want to see you big devil again."
"Okay," Xu Qing took a deep breath, her eyes remained calm, she even smiled slightly, and said, "You can do it."
His tone was calm and his expression was calm.
Seeing his careless attitude, a group of people from the rivers and lakes couldn't help suspecting that there was some trap waiting behind them, and instead hesitated to go forward.
Shen Ruoshui cursed inwardly for being useless, unsheathed the long sword at his waist, and rushed forward first.
Xu Qing didn't dodge or dodge, she didn't even show any moves, she just stood still.His gaze was wandering, as if passing through the group of people in front of him, looking towards a certain place in his heart.
At this critical juncture, everyone suddenly heard a clear whistle, and a young man in black flew over from nowhere, and after a few ups and downs, he stood in front of Xu Qing.The high level of lightness kung fu is really unbelievable.
"Master, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time, you'd better leave quickly." The young man in black had no expression on his face, and the long sword in his hand trembled, showing awe-inspiring killing intent. "This subordinate will cut off the heir for you."
"Zhao You, go back to the inn first, don't worry about the things here." Xu Qing raised her hand and rubbed the center of her brows, looking extremely tired.
"Master!?" Of course, Zhao You knew that his family's leader had supernatural powers, but he came to Yangzhou with unhealed old injuries a while ago, so he couldn't use his true energy at will.Moreover, how could his shadow guard have any reason to leave his master and go first?
But although Xu Qing's expression was indifferent, her attitude was extremely firm: "Go back."
"But……"
"You don't listen to me?" Xu Qing's face turned pale again, her eyes were sharp and her expression was terrifying. "Let's go now."
Zhao You immediately knelt down, gritted his teeth and said, "I obey."
After that, his figure suddenly rose up, just like when he appeared, and he disappeared in a blink of an eye.
The group of people from the rivers and lakes were confused by this farce, and they didn't know what was going on.
But Xu Qing closed her eyes, smiled slowly, and silently recited Lin Yue's name in her heart, and the emotion in her eyes flowed, which was very touching.
If that person wanted to take his life, he would naturally... be willing to die.
