Chapter 219 The Trembling Under the Maple Tree
Ever since he was taken away by Ye Qingchen, Gu Liuxi had not had a good day. He was jolted to death on the carriage almost every day. Over the past few days, he had lost a lot of weight. Not only that, he had also changed several horses. Gu Liuxi
I feel that all the hard work in this life is not as painful as these few days. It is simply not done by humans.
In the carriage, apart from eating, drinking and sleeping, there was almost no time for defecation.
Gu Liuxi didn't know where they were taking her. She vaguely knew that they had been rushing on their way, as if they were planning a very secret thing. As for what it was, Gu Liuxi didn't know, but it definitely wasn't it.
Whatever is good is right.
The past few days of spending time with Ye Qingchen have allowed Gu Liuxi to completely understand this man's temper. This man is very chauvinistic. You cannot disobey him, otherwise you will die miserably. After being taught a few lessons,
, she has learned well.
After walking for several days, the carriage finally moved from the rugged mountain roads to a flat road. This was also the day when the rain had turned sunny for Gu Liuxi for so many days. It seemed that after reaching the flat road, the carriage was not in a hurry to go on its way, but
Move slowly on the road.
Ye Qingchen had been concentrating with his eyes closed. Gu Liuxi was bored by herself, so she simply opened the curtains and looked at the scenery outside.
Rows of unknown trees pass by at a glance on the road, guarding the earth like loyal guards. When the wind blows gently, the slightly yellow leaves dance like small colorful butterflies. That scene
It's particularly beautiful, and it feels like an ambush from all sides.
After so many days of haze, the clouds finally cleared and the moon shone brightly.
Stretching out his hand, where the carriage passed, yellowing fallen leaves floated in front of his eyes, fell into his palm, and picked up a leaf. This leaf is so strange, a bit like their modern sycamore trees, but it is fundamentally different. This leaf
More like a human palm.
When Ye Qingchen opened his eyes, he saw Gu Liuxi looking at the yellowing leaves in his hands with interest, slightly closing his eyes, "This tree is the patron saint of the Sunset Empire."
"Eh!" Seeing Ye Qingchen wake up, Gu Liuxi was not surprised. She had seen many aspects of Ye Qingchen in the past few days and was used to him occasionally making noises. "Why do you call him the God of Guardian?"
"What a strange name.
"It's not called the patron saint, it's the patron saint of the Sunset Empire. The name of this tree is Thousand Maple Trees. It's different from other trees. Its branches are particularly straight. Each one looks like a soldier, symbolizing the setting sun.
The spirit of an imperial warrior." It was a rare occasion for Ye Qingchen to introduce Qian Maple Tree to others. I remember that when I was a child, my father would often tell several of their brothers the story of Qian Maple Tree. I had completely forgotten the story about Qian Maple Tree.
The only thing I can't forget is my father's particularly serious and great face when he was telling stories.
It’s just that I don’t know since when, my father has already had gray hair, and they have grown up. They are no longer the little children who like to squat in front of their father’s bed and listen to his stories when they were young. They all
They have grown up and each has his or her own ideals.
The only difference is that he has always shouldered a heavy responsibility that others cannot bear. Sometimes, he would think that if he had not agreed to his father's promise, then now he would be like his elder brother, a free and easy tourist, traveling around the world
every corner of.
However, he missed such an opportunity. Every time he loses something, he will gain something else. Every time he gains something, he also loses something. This is a cycle.
The eldest brother chose his own pursuit, but he chose his own mission.
This may be God's will.
"Thousand Maple Tree, what a beautiful name." Unexpectedly, this tree was somewhat similar to their current maple tree. Even the names were inexplicably similar. Is there any connection between the maple tree and the Thousand Maple Tree? Gu Liuxi raised his head and said,
He cast his gaze on the Thousand Maple Tree outside, "Did you know? There are tall trees like the Thousand Maple Tree in our area, which are called poplar trees, and there are also trees with leaves like the Thousand Maple Tree, which we call maple leaves.
."Thousand maple trees are simply a combination of poplar trees and maple leaves.
"Polar tree? Why is it called a poplar tree? The maple leaves are the same as the thousand maple trees. Aren't the leaves of the thousand maple trees called maple leaves?" Ye Qingchen was surprised by the poplar tree in Gu Liuxi's mouth. He didn't expect that there are people like Yang in this world.
Among similar trees, such a tall and upright tree, they only have Thousand Maple trees here.
Gu Liuxi rolled her eyes, "How do I know? I didn't come up with the name." There are so many questions, and I don't know who first aroused others' curiosity.
Ye Qingchen took the maple leaf from Gu Liuxi's hand and smiled seductively at her, "What does this look like?"
"What about your palms?" Gu Liuxi couldn't help but wonder if there was something wrong with his IQ for such a simple question.
"You know." Ye Qingchen was a little surprised. He didn't expect that she would know that maple leaves resemble palms when she first came to the Sunset Empire. Only they thought they were smart. In fact, no one in Gu Liuxi's world didn't know this.
"Of course." It was an obvious question. Gu Liuxi felt that her image suddenly became taller. Seeing Ye Qingchen choked by her, not to mention how happy she was. In the past few days, she has been a lot
I let him bully me, and the feeling of being bullied back is so good.
Ye Qingchen narrowed his eyes evilly, curled his lips unconsciously, and revealed a smile that was not a smile, "You seem to like to irritate me."
"How... how is it possible? It's too late for me to flatter you!" Shit, she just wanted to anger him, not to mention how happy she was to see the aggrieved expression on his face, but so far she has been in countless
I saw his aggrieved side in the curses and fantasies. How could such a shameless man feel aggrieved?
Seeing that Ye Qingchen's eyes were getting darker, Gu Liuxi immediately laughed and changed the subject: "That Ye Qingchen, where are you going to take me?" A few days ago, I was rushing to death, and today I am leisurely. What on earth is this?
, if you want to go in a hurry, just go in a hurry! Could he be such a pervert and deliberately drive back through those rugged mountain roads just for today's slow walk? This is too perverted, please consider other people's feelings!
It's really, really too much.
Flattery, why has he never seen this girl fawn over him before? If she can be obedient and not cause trouble for him, he will be like Anitabha.
However, she has become much more at peace these days.
The sprain on her hand healed in a few days, and the bandage was removed. Only then did Gu Liuxi believe that her hand was really not broken, and it was still moving as freely as before. Only then did she give Ye Qingchen a slightly better look, otherwise
, she stared at him every day and killed him with her eyes.
"You will know when the time comes." In order to feel the peaceful mood of walking under the thousands of maple trees, Ye Qingchen closed his eyes again and decided not to talk to Gu Liuxi again.
Gu Liuxi saw that Ye Qingchen was closing his eyes to rest again. Taking advantage of his eyes being closed, Gu Liuxi couldn't help sticking out her tongue at him, making faces, and whispered in a low voice: "I keep saying this." At least tell her now.
!When she arrives, she can leave some clues to Chi Heng and others, telling them that she is trapped here.
Should the protective measures be so secretive and without any loopholes? How can she escape?
The coachman seemed to be walking very slowly on purpose. The sky gradually dimmed, and there was only a ray of afterglow left on the horizon, which happened to fall on the neat rows of maple trees. The originally green maple trees suddenly turned into red.
The red trees were swaying up and down in the breeze.
The carriage finally stopped at this time. The person driving the carriage must be an expert on horseback. He had walked up such a steep mountain and had never heard him say a word. She kindly wanted to talk to him that day, only to realize that
It turns out that he is a mute who cannot speak.
The mute coachman stopped the carriage by the side of the road and gently knocked on the window, reminding the people inside that they had arrived where they wanted to go.
When I got off the carriage, I saw that the mangroves in that area were particularly beautiful, reflecting the last rays of light. I was indescribable. I didn't expect to see such a beautiful scenery before sunset.
Then the mute coachman followed them on horseback from a distance, and Ye Qingchen took Gu Liuxi out of the carriage.
In the past, I remember that my father would often take them here to play, and they would often see such beautiful scenery. However, such scenery is not common. You can only see such a scene in the last ray of sunset on the west mountain. This is why the mute
The reason why the coachman walks slowly.
Just to relive my childhood memories.
At that time, the brothers followed behind their father, walking step by step. They were happy at that time, and their father was their god at that time.
Now, the sky is about to fall, and they have grown up and have to take on the important task of holding up the sky and the earth.
After riding in the carriage for so many days, she was finally able to get down and take a walk. Gu Liuxi was also very happy. She was jumping and dancing happily like a butterfly under the large maple tree.
Ye Qingchen's always evil face finally showed a sincere smile that he had not seen for a long time. He felt as if he was back as a child again. Looking back, he saw Gu Liuxi jumping and jumping towards him.
At that moment, under the red leaves in the sky, she was like a fairy, walking towards him with the light of redemption.
At that moment, my heart strings were slightly touched and trembling.
His deep and dark eyes could no longer look away.
At that moment, that figure was deeply imprinted on the deepest part of his heart.
After a long, long time, Ye Qingchen realized that this second of trembling was called something called love.
