Chapter 134 (Two in One)
Xie Shuci knew that these two were difficult to serve, but he didn't expect that one was more difficult to serve than the other.
Seeing Xiao Xun's sullen face, with the expression of Xie Shuci's big mistake, he just looked at him without saying a word.
Xie Shuci was looked at by him as helpless, thinking that he is just a little boy now, why should he be as knowledgeable as him.
So he stepped forward and patted Xiao Xun's shoulder reassuringly, and said, "I'll buy you another one, okay?"
Xiao Xun pursed his lips, still not saying a word, presumably dissatisfied.
Xie Shuci took a deep breath and said, "Then what do you want? You tell me. If you don't tell me, how will I know?"
Xiao Xun seemed to be waiting for him to say this, nodded immediately and said: "Since there is no bell, don't run around."
Xie Shuci choked for a moment, glared at him, and said, "When did I run away?"
"If you didn't run around, why did you and Xie An hang a string of bells on each other?"
"I... don't like it."
Xiao Xun smiled, "OK."
After a few quarrels with Xiao Xun, this matter finally turned over.
After noon, Xie Shuci heard the noise outside the window, went to the window and opened the window to see, there were many people watching the bustle standing outside the inn, chatting about something, Xie Shuci leaned half of his body out Outside the window, but their voices were too messy to hear clearly.
"Aw!" The king jumped onto Xie Shuci's lap, grabbed his clothes and climbed onto Xie Shuci's shoulder, wanting to see the excitement, but the eaves blocked their sight, so they couldn't see clearly what happened downstairs. .
"Go, go down and take a look." Xie Shuci hugged the king from his shoulders, turned around and found Xiao Xun sitting at the table, looking at him quietly.
Xie Shuci was stunned for a moment, remembering what he had promised him, he quickly pulled him up too, "Let's go, let's go together."
Xiao Xun frowned, "No need."
He never liked to join in the fun.
Xie Shuci didn't know where to go, and said in a strange way: "Don't, lest you say I left you when the time comes."
Xiao Xun glanced at him and said, "I'm watching you from the window."
Xie Shuci: "..."
He snorted coldly and said, "Will you go or not! Your Majesty, let's go."
"Aw!" The king happily responded.
Xie Shuci came to the lobby with the king in his arms, and found that there were many officers and soldiers standing densely in the lobby. They gathered together and seemed to be saying something to the people in the middle. Xie Shuci tiptoed and looked inside, as if they were the leaders of Songjiu Battalion .
"Guest guest, guest officer, if you have something to go out, go through the side door!" Dian Xiaoyi shouted Xie Shuci, who was about to come forward, from the backyard door.
Xie Shuci walked forward with the king in his arms, and asked, "What are they doing?"
The waiter said: "Guest officer, you don't know, these bosses don't like military camps, but if you need to ask them for anything, you have to come to our inn. To tell you the truth, because these bosses don't like military camps. All the guests have already checked out and went to live in another inn, and only you and the young master are still here."
"Oh." Xie Shuci nodded, then looked outside the inn door, and asked, "What are you doing outside the door? Why are there so many people around?"
The waiter said, "Oh, did you see that red snow wolf this morning? It's guarding the door. It's called Xing, Xing, Xing..."
"Xingtie." Xie Shuci added.
"That's right! It's called Xingtie! It is said that this red snow wolf has intelligence and is comparable to a spirit beast. It has been fighting with the leader of Songjiu Battalion and is fierce and invincible. Naturally, people want to see this opportunity. Look at what this ferocious and invincible Chixue wolf looks like." "Ow!" The king cried out dissatisfied, what does it mean to be comparable to a spirit beast? This baby is a genuine spirit beast, how can it compare to this baby!
Feeling that it wanted to slip out of his arms restlessly, Xie Shuci patted its head gently, signaling it not to move. "Oh..." But the baby is really curious.
Xie Shuci was also a little curious about this ferocious beast, and it was the king's kind. The king had never seen his own kind since he was born, so he should let him meet.
"Where is the side door?" Xie Shuci asked.
The shop assistant said, "Guest officer, please follow me."
Under the leadership of Dian Xiaoyi, Xie Shuci left the inn from the side door with the king in his arms.
Xie Shuci circled around, returned to the door of the inn, subconsciously glanced at the attic window, Xiao Xun was standing by the window looking at Xie Shuci.
Xie Shuci waved at him, and the latter nodded slightly with no expression on his face.
He withdrew his gaze and led the king into the crowd.
"This is the Xingtie known as the number one beast in the Qi Country?"
"Really? It doesn't look like it at all, it's as docile as a dog."
"Aw!" Hearing this, the king bared his teeth angrily at the passers-by, but its image of a little milk dog was not intimidating at all, passers-by even saw that it was cute, and wanted to reach out and rub it.
"Aw!" Pooh! This baby won't let you touch it!
Xie Shuci patted it on the head and reprimanded: "Don't move around."
"Aw..." The king died suddenly, lying on Xie Shuci's arm, motionless.
Xie Shuci was thick-skinned, regardless of other people's eyes, he forced himself to the front row, and saw a real red snow wolf lying sickly on the ground, and the red hair on the right ear was not as shiny as the king's, probably because it hadn't been repaired. Neidan, for an ordinary red snow wolf at this age, he was old and looked listless.
"It's not like the one in the legend at all. Is it really the number one beast in Qi Country?"
"Maybe it's just Song Jiu's nutritious pet. Everyone should know that although the Chixue wolf has the strongest fighting ability in the wolf clan, it is also the most docile in the wolf clan. It is not even as aggressive as a domestic dog."
"I thought it was so fierce, but it turned out to be worse than a domestic dog."
...
There were a lot of sighs from the crowd, but Xing Tie just lay on the ground and concentrated on licking the hair on his body, not paying attention to the people around him, let alone what they were saying.
"Aww!"
Nonsense! You are like a dog! Your whole family is like a dog! The baby can kill ten of you with one bite!
Hearing the king's voice, Xing Tie, who had not responded until now, finally raised a pair of calm eyes to look at the king.
"Aw!" What are you looking at! They say you're not a baby! The baby's power will definitely make them die.
However, Xingtie ignored it at all, only glanced at it, then looked away lightly, and continued to lick his paws.
Xie Shuci also felt that the Chi Xuelang in front of him was too docile, probably because of his old age, he looked very vicissitudes.
Probably because he is used to seeing the majestic majesty of the king in his original form, Xie Shuci felt a little uncomfortable seeing such an old Chi Xuelang.
"It's just old." Xie Shuci said.
Because of its age, its hair has become dull, with some dirt that cannot be washed off, and it has no energy, just like a pet that has been locked in a cage and has lost its aggressiveness.
"Aw!" The king wagged his tail triumphantly. The baby is still young, but the baby will not be like you. Even if the baby gets old in the future, he will be majestic, so that the mother can no longer say that he is a dog.
"Aww!" Seeing that you and this baby are of the same kind, the baby is willing to accept you as a younger brother. As long as you call the baby big brother, the baby will definitely protect you in the future and prevent others from bullying you.
"Aww!" Did you hear that? The baby is talking to you!
The king is a very talkative little thing, and it is the first time to see the same kind, and it looks like a very unpromising kind, so it can't help but feel proud.
Xie Shuci pinched its dog's head helplessly, and said, "What are you doing? Didn't you see that senior didn't want to talk to you?"
"Aw? Aww!" Senior? It is not the predecessor of this baby, the baby is stronger than it, the baby will be its big brother to protect it, and no one will dare to call it a dog in the future!
The king's wailing voice attracted the attention of many people, and they couldn't help laughing loudly.
"Why is this Qi Country's number one beast afraid of even a little milk dog?"
"After all, it is the most docile breed."
"Aw!"
You are the dog! Babies are not dogs! It's a spirit beast! It's a spirit beast!
Xie Shuci patted it on the head, "Okay, don't make trouble."
"Oh!" But it is so pitiful, the baby wants to protect it.
Right here, Xing Tie lying on the ground raised his eyes, and looked at the king in Xie Shuci's arms again.
The king also looked at it with round eyes, "Aww."
Why, this baby just sees you as a waste...
"Aw"
The Chi Xuelang, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly opened his bloody mouth, and let out a deafening roar from his throat. A wave of air was rolled up out of thin air, and he rushed towards Xie Shuci and the passers-by behind him like a broken bamboo, vicissitudes of life The huge howling of wolves seemed to awaken the fear of wild beasts deep in the human soul. The birds scattered on the eaves and fled for their lives.
It was obviously just a wild wolf howl, but it seemed as if a picture of himself being cut open by a beast and bleeding profusely was drawn in everyone's minds. In an instant, a coolness rushed from the soles of his feet to his head, and the entire long street was suddenly silent.
Even after experiencing life and death, Xie Shuci couldn't help shivering when he heard the wolf howl again.
Beasts, no matter how docile they look on the outside, are still beasts in their bones. Human beings' fear of them has been deeply rooted tens of thousands of years ago. It's just that too many wild beasts in cages have gradually made human beings forget their original fear of them.
Only one day when they escape from the cage and open their fangs again, people will feel the deep-rooted fear that cannot be erased.
The king was stunned, dumbfounded by the roar.
As the same kind of red snow wolf, it can clearly and directly feel the pressure of howling.
It has never, never heard such a terrifying sound, it doesn't need a majestic appearance, it doesn't need to be a spirit beast, just a roar makes its legs weak in fright.
A layer of fear spread uncontrollably in the king's heart, and tears burst out of his eyes instantly. Turning around, he grabbed Xie Shuci's sleeve and was about to slip into his arms, making a low sobbing sound while slipping.
"Woooo..."
The baby is scared to death... The baby is going to be scared to death...
So scary, so imposing.
Behind the fright, is a kind of awe.
Xie Shuci was startled by the sound, let alone the king and others.
Xie Shuci hugged the king comfortingly, stroked its head, and turned to look at the other people around him, probably before recovering from the screams, many people were so frightened that they cried stand up.
Even when they came back to their senses, the way they looked at Xingtie was no longer the contempt just now, but a look of fear and awe.
Fang Xunxue heard the movement and came out from the door, saw this scene, and probably understood something.
Walking slowly, shaking his waist slightly, he walked up to Xing Tie, raised his eyes to look at the crowd, his almond eyes were full of affection, "Be careful, everyone."
In fact, at first, learned that Songjiu Battalion is a male and female person. Many people treat him like a seemingly docile Xingtie, but now that they have seen Xingtie's full of deterrence, no one underestimates him anymore. This seemingly incomparably feminine man.
Everyone looked at him like iron, with fear and awe.
No matter how dangerous they are, they are all used to protect these ordinary people.
Fang Xunxue stretched out her slender fingers to caress Xing Tie's head, her eyes became hollow again.
He raised his eyes to look at Xie Shuci, and slightly parted his cinnabar lips, "Is there something serious about Mr. Deng?"
Xie Shuci was stunned for a moment, almost forgot the name he made up, lowered his head in a concealed manner, rubbed the king who was curled up in his arms, and said, "I'm fine, the king was a little scared."
Xing Tie squinted his eyes to look at the king in his arms, and let out a light snort from his nose.
Fang Xunxue looked at him pointedly, and said, "Although the Chixue wolf is a relative, its aggressiveness is not weaker than other beasts. The child in your arms is too weak in aggressiveness, so it may not be a thing for it. Good thing."
Xie Shuci fell silent and understood what he meant.
Your Majesty is very close, and has never shown aggressiveness to anyone. As a natural beast, don't know how many people want its inner core. If things go on like this, Your Majesty will lose its aggressiveness and become a real beast pet.
Even if Xie Shuci had the ability to keep it safe and sound, it would definitely not be a good thing for the king of the wolf tribe to completely lose his aggressiveness.
What's more, Xie Shuci has no such ability.
Sensing Xie Shuci's emotions, the king raised his head from his arms with tears in his eyes. "Aw..."
Daddy...
Xie Shuci looked at it with complicated eyes, rubbed its head, and asked softly, "Are you afraid?"
"Aw..."
The king nodded, thought for a while, and shook his head again.
afraid……
But the baby also wants to be as majestic as it is.
The king nestled in Xie Shuci's arms, and quietly raised his eyes to look at the running iron on the ground.
Woooooo baby is wrong, senior is so scary.
Xing Tie raised his eyes and looked at it indifferently, and the king immediately retracted his head and pretended to be dead.
"Master Deng, please." Fang Xunxue leaned over and said.
Xie Shuci nodded, "Thank you."
He passed by Xingtie with the king in his arms. The king lay on Xie Shuci's arm, with wet tears hanging from the corners of his eyes, and looked timidly at Xingtie.
The people surrounding the road also looked at Xingtie, but their eyes had become very awed.
The king found that the eyes they looked at senior Xingtie were different from the eyes of the brothers, sisters, uncles, aunts, grandparents they met along the way. They regarded the king as a non-aggressive little milk dog and liked to pet him to tease him. It, but these people looked at senior Xingtie with fear and respect.
The king stared at them blankly, it also wanted to be as imposing as Senior Xingtie.
Xie Shuci was worried that the king was shocked, so he took it back to the room without staying in the lobby.
As soon as he entered the room, the king slipped out of Xie Shuci's arms.
It dejectedly walked to the corner without saying a word, and lay down with its back to Xie Shuci.
Xiao Xun walked over from the window, looked at the king who was curled up in a corner and was extremely self-contained, and said: "It seems that Xie An treats you well, under his nose, you can still be so useless."
The king froze, whimpered, and buried his head even lower.
Xie Shuci glanced at Xiao Xun with disapproval, but did not refute.
What Xiao Xun said was right, Xie Shuci kept it too non-aggressive by his side, Xie An was scruples about Xie Shuci, although he didn't seem to have a good face towards the king, he still treated him well.
"It has nothing to do with Xie An." When Xie An was mentioned, Xie Shuci's eyes dropped a lot.
Xiao Xun glanced at him and said, "Blame him. He knows your nature and this dog likes you. Whatever you look like, it will look like you. But he never planned to give you the ability to protect yourself."
Xie Shuci: "..."
Sure enough, it still has to be you, scolding myself for never being merciful.
"However——" Xiao Xun changed the subject, and looked straight at Xie Shuci, "He probably thinks he has the ability to protect you. Although I don't know what happened to drive him to the point where his soul is separated, I'm afraid it's because of his ego. , implicated you."
Xie Shuci lowered his eyes, "It's impossible for anyone to protect someone all the time. I used to think too simply, thinking that I could avoid some things by hiding, but in fact, there are many things that are predestined and cannot be avoided. .”
Just like Xie Shuci was doomed to meet Xie An, doomed to experience these things, doomed to almost die in his hands, doomed to die in the Xianmen general election.
Xiao Xun looked at him steadily and did not speak.
Xie Shuci went to Tianzhu City this time, in fact, not only wanted to return the Oiran token to Miss Luo before his fate, but also wanted to keep the king in Tianzhu City.
There are still two spirit beasts in Tianzhu City, and it is still a place under the jurisdiction of a country. It should be the safest for the king to keep him there.
Xie Shuci didn't know whether his behavior was called Tuogu, but he couldn't continue to keep the king by his side.
"What are you thinking?" Xiao Xun took a step forward, staring at Xie Shuci's face with dark pupils, his sharp eyes could almost see through Xie Shuci.
As he approached, an invisible sense of oppression shrouded Xie Shuci's body, making him afraid to raise his eyes to meet him.
"I didn't think about anything, I just didn't catch my breath." Xie Shuci pretended to be calm.
Fortunately, Xiao Xun only remembers the time before he was nine years old, and he doesn't know about his quarrel with Xie An, otherwise, Xie Shuci wouldn't know how to face him.
Before the start of the Xianmen general election, Xie Shuci decided not to visit Xie An for the time being, otherwise he would definitely stop himself when he woke up.
Xiao Xun pursed his lips, his face inexplicably gloomy, he looked at Xie Shuci without saying a word.
This guy is very smart no matter when he was a child or now, Xie Shuci didn't want him to notice that he was abnormal, stretched his waist, walked to the bed and said: "It's so boring, I don't know when Dongli will withdraw, I miss Xiao Xianlan and the others so much." what."
Xiao Xun followed him to the bed, frowned and asked, "Who is Xiao Xianlan?"
Seeing that he was distracted by himself so easily, Xie Shuci chuckled, thinking that he was indeed much easier to deceive than the older one.
Xie Shuci said: "The younger sister of Luo Xianyu, the number one beauty in the cultivation world——Luo Xianlan."
Xie Shuci went to the bed and covered his eyes with his hands, not daring to look at Xiao Xun's eyes that seemed to be able to see everything, for fear of revealing himself.
In fact, since leaving the cabin, Xie Shuci has been in a very, very bad mood.
Xiao Xun walked to the bedside, looked down at Xie Shuci with a pair of thick black eyes, which were completely different from those of his peers.
As if he didn't hear Xie Shuci's words, he lowered his upper body, knelt on the edge of the bed with one leg, and grasped Xie Shuci's slender wrist. Only then did he realize that Xie Shuci's body was shaking slightly.
Xiao Xun grabbed his wrist, trying to pull his hand from his eyes, but Xie Shuci refused to let him. He wanted to break Xiao Xun's hand, but he didn't dare to make too much movement.
Xiao Xun didn't seem to want to disturb Xie Shuci, he didn't forcefully tear his hand off, but a warm teardrop flowed out from under Xie Shuci's arm while pulling and pulling.
When his eyes came into contact with the tear, Xiao Xun's pupils shrank suddenly, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Xie Shuci."
Xie Shuci's Adam's apple rolled, and he clenched his teeth, trying to stop the tears from falling, but he couldn't do it at all. The tears fell from his arms one by one, disappeared into his temples, and disappeared.
"Xie Shuci!" Xiao Xun's voice sank, his breathing became a little disordered, and he pulled Xie Shuci's hand off his face forcefully.
Xie Shuci didn't want him to see his appearance at this time, turned around and pulled up the quilt, and buried his face in the quilt, but his body was already trembling uncontrollably, he gritted his teeth so that he didn't let himself out sound.
The crying this time was different from his previous ones.
Crying is funny or funny, Xie Shuci never hides it, but this time, he seems to be desperately trying to get back the tears and the choked sob in his throat.
Especially in front of Xiao Xun.
The movement beside the bed attracted the king.
The king raised his head ignorantly. Its perception ability is much stronger than that of ordinary people. Even after such a long distance, he still felt endless sadness from his father, as if he was about to be dragged into despair.
"Aw..."
The king's eyes turned red almost immediately.
It got up from the ground, trotted to the bed, didn't care whether the little mother would scold it, jumped onto the bed, wanted to crawl into Xie Shuci's arms, wanted to comfort daddy, and made daddy not so sad.
But Xie Shuci blocked it with his hands, preventing it from approaching any further.
The king was so anxious that tears fell, he rubbed his soft head against Xie Shuci's hand, and licked Xie Shuci's fingers with his tongue, hoping to relieve his sadness.
Xie Shuci's heart has long been dug a big hole, which can't be filled.
Xiao Xun kept a stiff posture and knelt on one knee beside the bed. He looked at Xie Shuci like this, and a strange emotion spread in his chest. That emotion pulled his internal organs, stronger than any criminal law he had ever received It made him feel unbearable pain and overwhelmed.
"Thank you letter..."
He is still young, he doesn't know how to appease Xie Shuci at this time.
But compared to Xie Shuci's tears, such silent and unreasonable tears made him feel more suffocated. Apart from shouting Xie Shuci's name, he didn't know what to say for a while.
Xie Shuci endured it for a long time, forcing himself not to think about it, but when the tears burst, he couldn't control it anymore.
He felt the cold from the beginning to the end, as if he was thrown in the ice and snow, his limbs were frozen, and he couldn't feel anything except the pain spreading in his heart.
Xiao Xun bowed down. body, and put his palm on Xie Shuci's back, as if something was blocked in his throat, he was so uncomfortable that he couldn't speak.
Xie Shuci's body was still trembling, he turned his back to Xiao Xun, not letting the king approach, and locked himself in a lonely place.
Xiao Xun slowly stretched his hand into the quilt, and in the hot air, a hot tear fell on his fingertips, as if his fingers had been pricked by a needle, he slowly stretched out his hand again.
He stared blankly at the transparent teardrops on his fingertips, thinking about something, put his fingertips against the corner of his eyes, and the teardrops slid down his cheeks, as if he was crying too.
"Xie Shuci..." His voice became trembling, he didn't know if he understood the meaning of Xie Shuci's tears, and said hoarsely: "Xie Shuci, I made you angry, right?"
Xie Shuci has no words and cannot speak.
Xie Shuci was a person who couldn't bear it, couldn't bear the pain, couldn't bear the pain, and couldn't bear the tears even more.
Even though he endured and endured this time, he still couldn't bear it.
He didn't know how to face Xiao Xun, and he didn't want Xiao Xun to see his tears.
He was too cowardly, too cowardly.
He loves Xie An so much, and hopes to be with him forever in this life and the next.
Even if he is dead, he can find himself.
But he never thought about whether Xie An would look for him.
In the dark cabin, Xie An was leaning on the head of the bed, holding Xie Shuci's wrist with one hand, looking at Xie Shuci with indifferent and decisive eyes.
Xie Shuci tried hard to pull his hand back, but Xie An's eyes frightened him and made him feel strange, but what frightened him even more was what Xie An said slowly but firmly while looking at him.
——"Xie Shuci, if you die, I will not go to you."
——"Death is death. I only recognize this life, not the afterlife."
