Chapter 40 Hug Can I Hug You?
It’s not that Xu Xingxing is not good at comforting herself, she is too good at it, so she knows that there are some things that she really can’t comfort herself about.
For example, it concerns the life and death of someone you care about.
If this kind of thing was not unavoidable now, she would never have imagined such a hypothesis in her life.
It hurts so much, just thinking about it makes my heart ache.
As the two of them talked, Yue Baiyin gradually relaxed from his previous dull mood. Occasionally, she would say a few nonsense words that tickled his funny bone, and he would even chuckle.
Her eyes were clear, as innocent as a child's, and Xu Xingxing's heart softened again.
Such an old thing has been hiding in the woods and wasting time since the great battle to exorcise demons. He has no one to talk to, so of course he can't get over it.
She refilled their cups, clinked Yue Baiyin's, and said, "I know you don't want to see Qi Rongli. I won't force you, but he's almost dying. After all, you were from the same sect. Regardless of your relationship, you should see him off. If you go back now, people will probably say you're hard-hearted and disregard the friendship between fellow disciples."
Yue Baiyin wasn't angry this time, but rather had a look of sorrow on his face. After finishing his tea, he rubbed his face with his hands and said in a conflicted tone, "Although my relationship with him is average, I get along very well with Ningning after all. I'll just do it for Ningning..."
Xu Xingxing patted Yue Baiyin's shoulder fiercely and praised him, "Master, you've really grown up! This time I'll offer you tea instead of wine. When we get back to Spirit Beast Mountain, we're going to get drunk!"
*
There was no progress in today's persuasion, and Yue Baiyin still did not go to see Qi Rongli.
But it wasn't completely without progress. Yue Baiyin didn't leave, and planned to return after sending Qi Rongli off...
It's just that this doesn't sound like a good thing...
After that, the two chatted for a while about Qi Rongli's condition, and then Xu Xingxing stood up and said goodbye.
He walked out of the courtyard with Xiao Hei, feeling a little melancholy. He looked at the sun and estimated that it was noon. "Let's go eat something."
Xiao Hei fell slightly behind her, but did not respond.
He had been silent since the beginning. Without thinking much, she continued:
"What do you want to eat?" He said this and turned to look at Xiao Hei.
But she found that the silent boy was looking at her intently from behind.
The black eyes were like a deep pool, calm and gloomy. The bright sunlight could not shine through, and not a single emotion could be revealed. The young animal was trapped in the cellar, its wailing and fear buried in the thick earth.
Her heart skipped a beat and she felt a little scared.
A light breeze blew by, causing the sleeves of the two people to float together, touch each other, separate, and then entangle.
Xiao Hei just kept looking at her without saying a word.
Xu Xingxing felt something was wrong, suppressed the panic in his heart, frowned and asked: "What's wrong? Have a headache again? I'll go ask the master."
But when she turned around, her wrist was grabbed. The young man flashed behind her, his breath on her hair, and his voice was somewhat restrained and lingering:
"I won't allow it."
"You are not allowed to die before me."
…………
After a long silence, there was a surge of shame, and the complaining machine in my mind started to restart.
???
What line is this?
Isn’t this what she said??!
Is that soundproofing array a cover?
Could Xiao Hei hear their conversation from beginning to end?
Aaaaahhh!!
What kind of underwear is being stripped off?!
Xu Xingxing was in a state of panic. When his brain couldn't think, the barrage of comments completely dominated the screen.
She should be more cautious and not trust that damn old man Yue Baiyin so much!
She finally understood now. Yue Baiyin really understood her thoroughly!
If she had achieved the fusion through her own practice, she would have been able to tell at a glance that there was something wrong with the soundproofing array.
But she is not.
She was just a rookie who achieved fusion by cheating and had not yet adapted to the surge of spiritual power in her body. She even disliked the fusion because it allowed her to see too much information and blocked her five senses. She was such a fool.
Therefore, the answers she gave under the guidance of Yue Baiyin were originally intended for Xiao Hei to hear.
Haha, you old fool.
This person really loves spirit beasts! !
Probably because she is a savior, he was afraid that she would make such a choice in the future that would be harmful to Xiao Hei.
It was to let Xiao Hei know what choice his master would make, or if his answer was wrong, Xiao Hei would see her true face and quickly leave her, the scumbag master.
But no matter what, Xiao Hei took everything he said to heart.
Something about her heart being so small that once someone got in, they couldn't get out. Something about her heart not being able to stand others taking him away from her. Something about her saying that no one else could bully him except her...
Haha, what are you thinking? Let’s not talk about you, the owner who has slept on the floor for a long time. How dare you say you are bullying him?
What's the difference between saying this in an ambiguous way and confessing your feelings on the spot?!
Ahh ...
Fortunately, she did not get carried away and directly told Yue Baiyin that she seemed to have taken a fancy to her spirit beast.
How could she let others hurt her man——
Pooh!
You bastard Yue Baiyin!
In his world, spirit beasts are more important than his own disciples!
The brainstorming session started and ended in a split second, and Xu Xingxing had already managed his facial expressions.
It was not difficult for her to make up stories, so she put on a silly smile and prepared to turn away.
But it did not succeed.
The man behind her held her shoulders. His hand was a little forceful, and his voice was suppressed and erratic, like a trapped animal whispering in her ear:
"No, change."
“No…”
Hate me.
He thought of that long dream, which was Ji Chan's memory.
That memory included killing, fighting, escaping, and kneeling.
Fragmentary, complex yet detailed.
In that memory, there was a man standing high on the mountain top, his face covered with a mask, dressed in black clothes, mysterious and unpredictable.
But the picture was too small and too far away for him to see clearly.
But why does he feel that,
Looks like him?
No, not him.
He immediately denied it.
The demons knelt on the ground like a wave, Ji Chan among them. They shouted:
Demon.
A devil with heinous crimes.
A demon who wishes to rip out his tendons and bones.
Yuan.
Not him.
It must not be him.
He forcibly suppressed all doubts.
About Ji Chan's ecstasy before her death, about why he could see her memory, about a demon in her memory telling Ji Chan:
My lord is now trapped in chaos and is now called Xiao Hei.
host?
What is it?
Even if he is the master, does it not necessarily mean that the demon is him?
He seemed to be panning for gold in the sand, searching for a needle in the haystack, trying to find even a shred of evidence that he was not.
Doubt and panic, fear and escape, these emotions seemed to put him in purgatory, burning his body and heart.
Especially since she had just lifted him up to the sky.
The comparison between the two makes me feel even more sad and heartbroken.
Humans and demons cannot coexist. If he is, does that mean everything I said before is completely invalid?
How could she be so cruel?
Which of her words could he believe?
The woman stood in front of him, only reaching his shoulders.
He tried his best to control himself and hold her in his arms, her love seeping into his bones and blood.
If I stuff her into my own flesh and blood, will she stop making me so afraid?
"Did you hear that?" the woman's weak voice sounded.
Yes, he heard it.
But what concerned him more at this moment was the trembling in her words.
Did he hurt her?
He panicked, loosened his grip, and responded:
"yes."
These words were like the tail of a dragonfly, lightly touching the tip of Xu Xingxing's heart, making her already soft heart soften even more.
Xiao Hei didn't know when he learned how to disguise himself. Normally, she couldn't feel his mood, and it was the same now.
But she sensed an endless and sticky sense of desolation from his few words.
It seems like an extremely cold place with nothing in it, or a dark place with no oxygen.
What did he hear?
What else do you think of?
Which sentence made him so upset?
He swallowed the lies that were on the tip of his tongue, tore off the mask he had just put on, and let all the suppressed melancholy, resistance and sorrow in his heart flow out.
Those who are good at advising themselves are also good at advising others.
And after comforting others, how do you relieve yourself?
After a long while, she mustered up her courage, took a deep breath, and said, "Xiao Hei, can I hug you?"
?
Xiao Hei's breathing stagnated and he didn't respond.
He really didn't know how to answer. He had wanted to hold her in his arms and hide her in his heart just a second ago, but now after hearing her say that, he started to feel confused again.
But the panic in his heart receded like the tide, and he emerged from the deep water with his face up, finally seeing the light of day and the air.
The woman continued to speak, as if she was passing fresh air to him who was on the verge of death.
Let him come back to life little by little.
"I was thinking about it when I was talking to Master just now."
"Can I hold you for a moment?"
"Just for a moment."
He felt a lump in his throat and couldn't find his voice. After a long while, he heard a low sound coming out of his throat:
"Um."
In just a moment, the space in front of him was filled.
The woman hugged her waist tightly, buried her cheek in her arms, and rubbed it unconsciously.
His body was stiff, and he could no longer tell the speed of time. Was it a moment, or a long time?
All I heard was a long sigh from the woman, followed by a gentle laugh. She said:
"very nice."
"That's great."
"Don't overthink it. It's all Yue Baiyin's fault. What a bullshit question he asked!"
"Pfft, pfft, pfft, you will be fine, I will make you fine."
"You have to stay with me all the time."
…
He thought he was too weird, too strange.
It doesn't look like him at all.
His heart had never felt so light, nor so frightened.
It was so painful just now that I wanted to hold her captive by my side, but now, seeing her wiggling around my chest like a little animal, with a look of satisfaction on her face, I couldn't let go of her hands.
I felt a sense of fear
I'm afraid it's an illusion that will shatter at the touch.
I was afraid that I would feel the heart-wrenching pain again in the next moment.
He just looked at her, felt her, and could no longer utter a word.
"Ah!" A voice sounded beside.
He glanced sideways at the servants who were covering their mouths and moaning softly, a cold murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
What an eyesore.
The woman in his arms froze for a moment, then revealed a little of her profile, already flushed. She whispered, "Run! Xiao Hei, take me away!"
Take me away.
He forgot how to breathe, and when he came to his senses, he had already jumped into the air with her in his arms.
The woman smiled happily, hugged his neck, her eyes shining so brightly that his heart tightened: "Take me to a place where there is no one!"
