Lord, your mask fell off

Chapter 69 You don't understand the child's mind
Amid the billowing smoke and dust, the man swung his whip and couldn't see his expression clearly through the silver mask. She vaguely saw a hint of worry through those dark eyes.

It seems as if walking in the desert for too long, suddenly seeing an oasis, or drifting in the vast sea, suddenly a lone boat floats.

The heart has something to rely on, the heart has lingering fears, and this moment is flooding in the heart.

But as if thinking of something, she pursed her lips and turned her head unwilling to look at him.

The people on the horse saw her standing there safe and sound, and the heart that had been hanging all the time finally fell to the ground at this moment. They reined in the horse and flew down, walking quickly to her in one go. Looking down at the city wall, she could already see the urgency of the situation at a glance. Looking down at the person in front of her, she couldn't help but raised her hand and stroked her head, "Are you injured?"

Chu Qingyan stubbornly refused to respond to him, lowered her head and played with her fingers.

Xiao Xu didn't know what she was awkward about, he used all the patience he didn't have on her, but now he looked at her well-behaved, but now he showed his temper, his brows were slightly frowned, and he was about to scold her.

But with a sharp eye, she saw two bean-sized teardrops rolling down and dripping on the back of her entangled hands, which bloomed instantly, splashed on the ground, buried in the dust, and were a little bit dark.

Xiao Xu was slightly taken aback. It's not like he hasn't seen people cry. On the battlefield, the tears of life and death, the tears of no regrets, the old and the weak, women and children either hissed and cracked their lungs, or wept in despair, or sobbed in fear. , but it was the first time seeing someone cry, Wei Wei panicked, it was not that she had never seen her tears, Xu is such a strong person, it was the first time seeing her cry as if the whole world had abandoned her.

Sadness filled her heart, Chu Qingyan raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, but she wiped more and more, and finally she gave up.

Xiao Xu had no way of comforting her. Those staff members had never written how to deal with such a situation before. In the end, out of instinct, he wrapped his arms around her and embraced her, imitating the way those women and children comforted their children. He patted her on the back lightly.

But he didn't want to, this embrace seemed to let Chu Qingyan find a way to vent, tears like an overflowing river, wet most of his clothes.

Originally thought that she would be calm because of his comfort, but unexpectedly, it was completely the opposite. A person who has always been in control of the situation and has power in his hands, faced such a petite child for the first time, unexpectedly, he was at a loss.

"The female benefactor may have been frightened, just go back and drink some medicine to suppress the shock." The white-clothed monk put his hands together and suggested.

It was only then that Xiao Xu noticed the person in front of him. Although he hugged Chu Qingyan, he didn't feel embarrassed, and looked at him coldly, "Master Xujian, don't come here without any problems."

"His Royal Highness, how are you doing these days?" Xu Jian was not dissatisfied because the other party ignored him just now, and his expression was still ethereal.

"Thanks to the master, I am free from illness and disaster, and my life is going smoothly! It seems that the master has not seen me for a long time, and it seems that the skill has improved. Congratulations to the master." Xiao Xu replied lightly.

"Cultivation technique is just to recuperate, not to mention joy." Xu Jian smiled with curved lips, but it was like a dream, and he couldn't see the sorrow and joy clearly. His eyes fell on the person in Xiao Xu's arms, and he said slowly, "This female benefactor is likely to be the future British princess. The poor monk congratulates His Highness, but the poor monk has something to give to His Highness."

"Master, it's okay to say." Xiao Xu's thoughts were all on the man in his arms, and when he heard Xu Jian speak, he slightly raised his eyebrows and looked at him.

"Your Highness, parting with love, resentment and hatred, letting go and returning, is nothing but empty eyes, all illusory, the poor monk advises Your Highness not to be too persistent, that's all the poor monk said, Amitabha." chant.

Xu Jian is a well-known eminent monk who has achieved Taoism. Although he is not very old, he is highly respected by the royal families and people of all countries. To get a mantra from him can be said to be a blessing from three-tone cultivation.

But Xiao Xu didn't believe in gods and Buddhas, but he wouldn't reject him either. After hearing what Xu Jian said, he didn't take it to heart and said thank you.

And Chu Qingyan, who was buried in Xiao Xu's arms, was a little surprised when she heard Xu Jian's words. Could it be that Xu Jian is a magic stick?Look at his Buddha nature, is it possible that he is like those people in the world who don't do monk's work in monk's clothes?

After Chu Qingyan thought about it, she stopped crying. Sensing her change, Xiao Xu pulled her out of his arms, lowered his head and said to her, "Let's go back!"

Seeing Xiao Xu leading the horse over, Chu Qingyan knew that no matter what she would go back to the palace, she lowered her head and walked forward, but as soon as she landed, there was a heart-rending pain in her ankle, and she let out a cry of surprise and fell down.

And the person standing closest to her stretched out his hand to help her, Chu Qingyan was instantly surrounded by clear sandalwood, she raised her head subconsciously, and happened to hear his voiceless voice, "Be careful."

And Xiao Xu also heard the movement, striding forward, saw her biting her lip in pain, squatted down immediately, and checked her right foot, only to find that her ankle was swollen very high.

Chu Qingyan looked down and was taken aback. She didn't expect it to be so serious. She must have twisted it while dodging the man in black. She just felt a little uncomfortable. Maybe it was because she ran away in a panic and didn't care about it. Now that the crisis is over, The pain is so obvious when you relax.

Xiao Xu felt that this injury couldn't last long, so without thinking too much, he took Chu Qingyan from Xu Jian's hand, bent slightly and put his hands under her ribs and calves, and easily picked her up.

"Master, I would like to thank the person who saved my king today, and I will thank you another day." Xiao Xu nodded slightly at Xujian, and then flew onto the horse, protecting her in front of him with one hand, and holding the reins with the other, and led the tail with him. Those who came quickly headed towards the city.

Xu Jian watched the two leave with a calm expression on his face. He just noticed a breath that didn't belong to this place on Chu Qingyan. It was a lonely soul from another land, and one day it would disappear in the world, so he calculated Xiao Xu and Xiao Xu. She was predestined and destined to live alone, that's why she reminded Xiao Xu to weigh gains and losses, don't get entangled in sex.

That's all he said, what happens depends on the fate of the two people.

He turned around and wanted to leave, but he heard that something seemed to be broken. In an instant, he saw the wooden beads in his wrist scattered, and fell to the ground after a while.

He frowned and watched the wooden bead rolling, perhaps it was caused by the red hairpin in her hair when he was helping Chu Qingyan just now. related.

When the wooden beads finally came to rest, he moved slightly between his eyebrows. The eighteen wooden beads seemed to be scattered and disorderly, but they formed a rare hexagram. He couldn't help counting.

Chu Qingyan's angle happened to see the figure that was getting further and further away behind her.

A white dress is not pure white, it is embroidered with thin black Sanskrit characters, blowing with the wind, leaving the dust and entering the world, as if to ride the wind back home.

When her eyes moved upwards, Chu Qingyan was slightly puzzled, why a layer of astonishment seemed to appear in those calm holy eyes at this moment.
