Shaojun riding the sea

Chapter 13 My little bell is not dirty

"Why in this world, there are...so many people who love you?"

In Youyou's words, there was no teasing, no sarcasm, some were actually...deep envy, or rather, jealousy.

Wen Yanru in the setting sun had a thought, looked at Zhong Lisheng who was looking lonely, and for some reason, remembered that day of that year again, when the young man covered in blood, like an abandoned puppy, fell on the ground and cried bitterly. scenario.

"Why don't you love me? Why don't you just love me?"

At that time, he actually went to find Mrs. Wan secretly without telling Zhong Lisheng.

Still separated by the curtain, he clenched his fists in grief and anger, but he had to bend his back to beg the person behind the curtain.

As proud as he is, it is probably the first time in his life that he really "begs for help".

"A Sheng is very ill. Ma'am... can you go and see him? Just take a look and talk to him. He will definitely recover from his illness. I beg you, is that okay?"

How ironic, he is the most outstanding son of the Wen family, the "God of War" praised by everyone in the world, but he suffered a crushing defeat in front of that Mrs. Wan.

The curtain was never opened from the beginning to the end, and the cold voice just said indifferently: "There is nothing to see, life and death are up to fate, it's all good luck, it's good that he can survive it, and if he can't survive it, he can't blame others."

These words finally ignited his anger to the peak, the heart in his chest was beating wildly, and he almost blurted out:

"No matter how reluctant you were to give birth to A Sheng, and how many grievances you had with Zhongli Island Master, none of these were A Sheng's fault, and you never asked A Sheng... would he be willing to be born like this? ?”

"If he knew that he was born into this world without being blessed, and that he would never receive a day's love from his mother in this life, I'm afraid he would rather be strangled to death when he was born!"

The angry question echoed in the empty hall for a long time, but Wen Yanru never dreamed of Mrs. Nawan's answer. She sat behind the curtain and said slowly, word by word——

"When he was born, I really thought about strangling him to death, but Zhong Lixian stopped him... He has stolen his life for more than ten years."

In an instant, Wen Yan felt cold all over his body, unbelievable, and his whole body was beyond shock.

Strangling to death and stealing alive, there are probably no more vicious words in this world.

I don't remember how I left at the beginning. It seems that my legs can't use any strength. Wen Yanru was full of desolation, and only left the last sentence to Mrs. Wan:

"Please keep this secret until death, and never let Ah Sheng know that you once personally wanted to... kill him."

Standing in the sea breeze now, listening to Zhong Lisheng's muttering to himself, Wen Yanru's heart also felt bitter.

"Why don't you just love me?"

That's right, why, there are always things you can't ask for in this world, who can Zhong Lisheng blame?God wants him to be like this, what can he do, and who can he ask for the "love" that has been missing for more than ten years?

Wen Yanru suddenly realized at this moment the real reason for the birth of this "gamble". Zhong Lisheng's deliberate difficulty was not just because he was dissatisfied with the imperial edict and rebellious. The real reason may be——

The more innocent he envies.

The hostile young man has never received love in his life, so he will not know how to love others, and will only "destroy" every "love" he has ever seen.

Because of unwillingness, because of jealousy, because of not being able to ask for it.

"97, 98, 99..."

In the corpse pit, no matter how many times it was counted, there were still only 99 sea centipedes in the jar, it was like God deliberately playing tricks, no matter how hard Shi Xuanling rummaged through the corpse pit, there was no more one left.

"How could it not be, how could it be, there is only one missing, obviously the last one is missing..."

The girl who had always been strong and optimistic did not really show her anxiety until this moment. She was holding the jar tightly and standing in the corpse pit, her figure was thin and helpless, which aroused pity.

Under the setting sun, Ji Zhiyue was more anxious than she was, and lay down beside the corpse pit, holding up the glass mirror and looking in, wishing Shi Xuanling could conjure another one!

Yue Wujiu's heart ached even more, he couldn't care about anything else, "Xuan Ling, you come up first, don't worry, I'll pull you up first!"

Among all the people, only Zhong Lisheng's eyes were bright, and he was so ecstatic that he almost smiled with his hands on his hips——

"Shi Xuanling, you are mine!"

The purple dress became more and more excited as he thought about it: "Big donkey, from today onwards, I can command you! I want you to be my servant. If I go east, you can't go west. I want you by my side." Inseparable..."

A white mist swirls around his shoulders, and a small purple shark laughing wildly and wriggling and dancing emerges. Shi Xuanling in the corpse pit is gnashing his teeth with hatred, but he is at a dead end, unable to do anything.

At this moment, Wen Yanru, who had been silent all this time, suddenly raised the spear in his hand, pointed at a rock not far from the corpse pit, and said five words with a cold expression——

"There's another one."

God, earth, Shi Xuanling in the corpse pit and Ji Zhiyue outside the corpse pit screamed at the same time, the two little girls were almost kneeling down for Wen Yan, even the always restrained Yue Wugui had chest heaves , excitedly stepped forward and grasped Wen Yanru's hand.

"Thank you, General Xiaoyan, for your rescue. This kindness will be repaid tenfold in the future!"

In the joyful atmosphere, only one person was petrified, and that was the little purple shark with unbelievable writing on his face, Zhong Lisheng.

"Ahhhh-"

He broke down and yelled, pointing at Wen Yanru with the black iron folding fan in his hand, "Is there any mistake, you dead mosquito, which side are you from?!"

"Don't think I don't know. You secretly helped them dig this corpse pit. I've turned a blind eye to it. You don't think it's enough. Now you're blatantly helping them 'cheat'. You're not Xu is just, upright and selfless? Where is your conscience? I will definitely kick you into the sea this time and feed it to the sharks, absolutely!"

When Zhong Lisheng was still roaring angrily, that Shi Xuanling had already climbed out of the corpse pit, taking the last sea centipede into his bag.

She came to Zhonglisheng with the jar in her hand, and it was full of a hundred sea centipedes, no more and no less.

This difficult bet, she won, she finally won.

"Young island master, I am willing to bet and admit defeat. You can't blame others. In your bet, you only said that your son is not allowed to intervene, but you don't say that others are not allowed to help. Did you mention 'General Xiaoyan' in half a word?" ? The result is clearly laid out here, don’t you still afford to lose and don’t intend to admit it?”

Good fellow, directly retaliated with an eye, and "returned" Zhong Lisheng in a similar manner. Before he took advantage of the loopholes in the imperial decree, he had the opportunity to deliberately make things difficult for Shi Xuanling. Now Shi Xuanling is also grabbing the loopholes in his bet and forcing him to bow his head throw in the towel.

The matter has come to this point, Zhong Lisheng can't say anything anymore, he just pointed at Shi Xuanling with the black iron folding fan, and said irritably:

"Go away, go back and serve your heir, you can live in Lanxin Courtyard until you die, I will come to collect your body sooner or later!"

"Don't worry about it, the island master. I'm sure I'll live longer than you. After all, the sea centipede can't kill me. I'm sure I can live in the Lanxin courtyard for a long time in peace with my family!"

Saying that, Shi Xuanling made a face at Zhong Lisheng, turned around triumphantly, never looked at him again, and walked straight towards Yue Wujiu and Ji Zhiyue.

The three of them joined forces victoriously, even though it was difficult and dangerous, they finally won this extremely beautiful battle!

The girl walked up to her companion, her eyes and brows were full of smiles, but before she could speak, the tearful boy stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms, hugging her tightly under the setting sun.

"Dirty, son, I am dirty, I have to go back and wash it..."

"Not dirty, not dirty at all." The boy's throat was a little choked up, and the hands holding the girl trembled slightly. He spoke softly in the dusk, and the words struck her heart——

"My little bell is not dirty at all, she is the cleanest and most beautiful girl in this world."

He saw with his own eyes what she had done for him, so hard-working, so reckless, his ice-like heart gradually melted.

He told her not to mention the word "eternal" to him, because he doesn't believe that there is eternal things in this world, but maybe, he has walked alone so far, can... try to believe her?
Under the sky, Shi Xuanling, who was hugged tightly by the young man, was also stunned. The evening wind blew up and raised the corners of her skirt.

This is the first time that Yue Wugui called her "Little Bell".

For some reason, a heart beat faster and faster. For the first time in the glow of the sky, she felt an indescribable... strange throbbing.

what is this?

Shi Xuanling was ignorant and unable to recognize, but closed her eyes involuntarily, and also stretched out her hands, hugging her "little gray cat" tightly.

The two embraced each other for a long time under the setting sun, and this scene fell into the eyes of Zhong Lisheng who was not far away. He hadn't moved for a long time, and the setting sun also stained the corners of his eyes and brows with a golden edge.

He just stood alone in the evening wind, his thin shadow was stretched very long by the sun, like a ghost in this world that no one cares about, with a biting chill from head to toe.

Until a familiar voice sounded in my ear, mixed with a little sigh: "A Sheng, I have some obsessions, it's better to put them down as soon as possible, otherwise it won't be worthwhile to hurt others and yourself."

Zhong Lisheng was shocked, turned his head away, and said viciously: "Wen Yanru, I'm not in the mood to fight with you today, you'd better get out of here, don't mess with me, and don't say strange things, I don't understand."

"You understand." Wen Yanru stood in the sea breeze and looked at Zhong Lisheng quietly, "You know what I'm talking about."

"roll!"

As if someone had peeped into his heart in an instant, Zhong Lisheng became a little annoyed, and just wanted to escape from here quickly, but Wen Yanru was relentless: "Asheng, actually, you don't have to..."

"Get out, get out of my way!"

At this moment, Zhong Lisheng was like a furry cat, and his furious voice echoed in the sky——

"I can do whatever I want, Wen Yanru, I don't need you to teach me, I was raised by nature, I live alone, even my parents can't control me, what are you!"

-

In the small courtyard of Lanxin, the moonlight is faint, and the ground is like silver.

With her snow-white feet soaked in the medicinal soup, under the flickering candlelight, Yue Wugui squatted beside the bed, gently and carefully massaged and kneaded the girl to relieve the pain.

If people in the imperial city saw this scene, their eyes would probably pop out. The pampered and aloof prince in the past is now willingly washing the feet of a little girl!

In order to catch a hundred sea centipedes this time, Shi Xuanling worked hard, not only his hands were eroded by the venom and covered with red spots, but also his feet were swollen and sore. People start to get busy.

He has been taking care of Shi Xuanling meticulously these days.

The young man was born smart, and he learned everything quickly. Every day, he would boil hot water and soak Shi Xuanling in a medicinal bath. After she changed into clean clothes, he would sit by the bed and carefully apply medicine to her hands. .

After applying the medicine on the wound on his hand, he would call hot water alone, and according to Shi Xuanling's instruction, put in some special medicinal powder, let her soak her feet, and massage and knead her at the same time.

After a few days, he didn't even let Shi Xuanling get off the bed, and even Shi Xuanling's dress that was stained with blood from the corpse pit at first, he carefully washed it and dried it neatly.

Lanxin Courtyard looks more and more like a home.

The young man did everything neatly and beautifully, and Shi Xuanling praised him again and again, but she was always a little awkward and embarrassed when he washed her feet.

The girl is not all because of her shyness. When she was young in Qingli Mountain, she climbed trees and dived into the water every day, and ran around with her bare feet. She was not like those girls from aristocratic families in the imperial city who felt that it was indecent to show their feet in front of others. things, especially in front of men, she just felt——

This kind of thing shouldn't be done by Yue Wugui.

"Actually, I should be the one who serves the prince and takes care of the prince's daily life. Now, instead, the prince has been doing these things all the time. I, I feel really sorry..."

Under the flickering candlelight, Shi Xuanling looked at the young man squatting in front of him, apologetic and embarrassed, but the young man raised his head after the figure paused, and said seriously:
"Xuan Ling, between you and me, don't use the word 'serve'."

The handsome eyebrows looked at her, filled with starlight, "We are a family, a family who depend on each other and share weal and woe. One day, I will marry you in a dignified manner and let you be my wife. I will do it for my wife." Shouldn't something be?"

"Wife, wife?"

Shi Xuanling was stunned. She really hadn't thought about this level. In a daze, she asked again: "Can a husband and wife do many things?"

"A lot." Yue Wujiu said, he didn't know what to think, his ears turned red, his eyes looking at Shi Xuanling suddenly became strange, and his tone became low and hoarse: "There are so many things that you can't think of. I'll do it..."

"What's the matter?"

　The prince announced that my little Bell is the most beautiful girl in the world!
　　See you tomorrow~
