78 How to do it
◎Remember to keep the secret◎
Luosang carefully treated Dabu's wound.
"What happened?" Luosang noticed that the other party was in better condition, so he took the opportunity to ask, "Why are you so careless?"
"Ah, ah!" Dabu started to complain with his hands and feet dancing after hearing this. He was a mute and could not speak like a normal person. Even if he tried to open his mouth wide, he could only spit out some simple syllables. But because he had been with him for a long time, Luosang could still roughly understand what he meant.
Dabu kept pointing out the window with one hand, and clenched his other hand into a fist, tapping the tip of his nose again and again.
“Did you accidentally fall there?” Luosang asked.
Dabu shook his head: "Ah, ah!"
"Did you hit the window?" Luosang asked again.
Dabu still shook his head, extremely emotional: "Ah, ah ah ah!"
So Luosang paused for a moment and asked, "Did anyone bully you?"
Only then did Dabu finally nod, and his tears began to flow again.
"Does anyone in the village often bully him?" Shen Jia asked with some confusion. Seeing that Dabu was crying so sadly, she raised her hand and handed him a few pieces of paper.
"You can't say he's bullying," Luosang sighed. "Everyone can see he's not very smart. Sometimes he can't control his behavior and emotions, and he'll do things that anger the other villagers."
"But usually, everyone just scolds him and never really hits him. Who knew what happened today?" Luosang saw that Dabu was crying so sadly and didn't intend to ask any more questions. "Don't cry, I..."
"Who bullied you and what does he look like?" Qi Qiuxue interrupted Luosang and asked suddenly.
"?" Dabu paused for a moment, then started gesticulating vigorously again. He touched his chin to simulate the shape of a beard, raised his hand to cover one eye, and then rubbed his hands on his head.
Everyone was confused by his series of actions: "How many people are there?"
"Ah, ah..." Dabu tilted his head with a dull look in his eyes and thought for a while, and finally gestured out a few numbers, sometimes five, sometimes eight, and sometimes nine.
“…”
This made everyone even more confused.
"He's acting silly again." Luosang shook his head. It was getting late, and it was time to rest. "Everyone, go back to bed. I'll go make Dabu a bowl of noodles and then ask someone to take him back."
"Okay." Sister Yang nodded. This was exactly what she meant.
After a few days of recuperation, everyone's health and condition have recovered a lot. In order to reduce the risk of going to the tomb as much as possible, everyone made preparations in advance and purchased some useful tools from all over the village, such as knives, flashlights, candles, etc.
Although they had a very leisurely few days, everyone had never forgotten why they came here in the wind and snow and took huge risks. They came here to search for treasures, not to travel.
"We'll leave early tomorrow morning." Sister Yang started to discuss with everyone.
"good."
"All right, I'll listen to Sister Yang."
"I'm fine."
Everyone agreed, so Sister Yang spoke again, "Rest early tonight and try to be in good shape tomorrow to continue on."
After a simple goodbye, everyone returned to their rooms one after another.
This might be the last chance to sleep peacefully in this dungeon. After washing up, Li Yiqing lay on the bed and hummed reluctantly, "I wonder where we'll sleep at this time tomorrow night."
"Go over there." Qi Qiuxue didn't say anything, but gently touched Li Yiqing's calf with her toes. The bed was not very spacious, and the sides and bottom of the bed were against the wall. If she wanted to get on the bed, she had to step over Li Yiqing before she could reach her own position.
"Okay." For several days, the two of them had cooperated perfectly. Li Yiqing obediently turned half a circle to the side to make room for Qi Qiuxue to step on, and then lay quietly on the spot, waiting for the other party to step over him.
After Qi Qiuxue lay down, she looked at him with her sparkling eyes.
"What are you looking at?" Qi Qiuxue glanced at her out of the corner of his eye.
"Nothing." Li Yiqing smiled, "I just feel that after spending these few days together, the relationship between Axue and I has become much closer."
Qi Qiuxue chuckled after hearing this: "Do you really want to be close to me?"
This statement sounded inexplicably ambiguous. Li Yiqing paused, then nodded foolishly: "Yes."
After she finished speaking, Qi Qiuxue suddenly changed her posture, sat up, and slowly approached the direction where Li Yiqing was.
The quilt slid down from her shoulders as she moved, and the light from overhead shone on her, making Qi Qiuxue's somewhat thin figure look even thinner.
Her hair was very long and had a sweet scent. A few strands brushed against Li Yiqing's cheek, making him feel a little itchy.
But Li Yiqing did not dodge, he just raised his eyes quietly and looked at the person in front of him.
She saw Qi Qiuxue once again place his palm on her chest. His tone sounded a little cold, but upon closer inspection, there seemed to be a hint of an elusive smile in it: "Come on, repeat your answer."
She was testing her again.
"I want to get closer to Axue." Li Yiqing said more seriously.
"Really?" Qi Qiuxue lowered her eyes, her expression dim and unclear, as if she was silently counting her heartbeats. After a moment, she withdrew her hand, "I think you are lying to me."
"Your heartbeat is completely still," Qi Qiuxue said. Her face didn't show any accusation or displeasure, as if she were just chatting casually with her. "Ah Qing, you don't seem to be saying what you mean."
"I didn't." After saying that, Li Yiqing suddenly grabbed her hand, shook his head a little aggrieved, and hurriedly explained to her, "Axue, I didn't lie."
"Will you believe me?" She kept looking into her eyes.
His eyes were sincere.
"It's not that I don't want to believe you." Qi Qiuxue lay back down and said softly, "It's your behavior that's unbelievable."
"Then what should I do?" Li Yiqing came closer relentlessly. The two of them completely exchanged positions, and Li Yiqing became the one sitting up.
Every strand of her fluffy curly hair was stained with a dim yet warm light, and her face showed obvious grievance and anxiety. She still held Qi Qiuxue's hand tightly, and her fingertips unconsciously stroked the back of her hand, like a big dog who wanted to please its owner but was a little at a loss.
What to do.
Qi Qiuxue raised her lips slightly. Although she was clearly in a lower position, she revealed a faint smile as if she were in a higher position. "I want you to follow me forever, always believe in me, never lie, and never hide anything."
"Can you do that?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yiqing was visibly stunned.
Qi Qiuxue knew this would be the outcome and didn't blame her: "It's okay, everyone has secrets. But if you want me to completely trust you and get close to you, Aqing, you have to give me something as a bargaining chip."
"Perhaps you have a reason for deliberately concealing something and really don't want to tell me. I understand, and I won't force you. But equally, when facing you, I will not restrain my curiosity and my desire to explore the truth. You know, I have a strange temper and am a bit paranoid. Perhaps I will never stop exploring until I see the truth thoroughly."
"Be careful, Qing. If you really don't want me to dig out anything, then keep your secret well."
