Qi Huan has always had an extraordinary curiosity about Bai Ya's life, and he has to admit that this is probably a curiosity.
"I think you are quite strange." Qi Huan looked at him, "As you said, you are also very... isolated. Your attitude towards the two children on the uninhabited island was somewhat reflected. And you.
experiences, your ideas.”
Bai Ya responded calmly: "I also think you are quite strange. You said that you were born in poverty, but you know some martial arts and some yin and yang arts. Not to mention you are not good at it, but at this entry level, you no longer look like a person.
A child from an ordinary family."
"Hey, I thought it was such a big deal." Qi Huan raised his shoulders with a relaxed expression, "Although I am poor, I worked as a pupil for a young master from a rich family. I know that it is not easy for children from rich families.
Evening is a problem. There are many people who are domineering and domineering. That’s because of their parents.
Poor man. The young master I served worked hard. He studied during the day, practiced martial arts at night, and played the piano today and told fortunes the next. He was very tired. I was lucky enough to learn from him. There is no way, if I can't work with him
The young master’s level is worthy of me, and I can’t even afford this meal.”
Jun Aoyan moved her neck and turned to look at him stiffly. After pouring out the words she had been holding in her heart for so long, she felt much more relaxed. Maybe it was a good thing to do this. Firstly, the burden seemed to be relieved, and secondly,
, because she didn’t know when she would be able to go back. Even if they all died here, their mouths had been sealed. She was silent for a while, and then asked Qihuan:
"What happened to the young master later?"
"Dead."
"Why?"
"Oh, my parents are urging me so hard that something went wrong." Qi Huan was a little disappointed. It seemed that he had a deep relationship with the young master. "On weekdays, if you don't memorize the book well or don't do well with the sword, you will be scolded and beaten.
Forget about fighting... Even when playing chess with his father, if he made a wrong move that shouldn't have been made, he would be scolded, saying that he was not focused and could not
He was serious but careless. He talked about everything from learning ability to family ethics, and at the end he added a self-criticism of several hundred words. He also had a bunch of texts, which I couldn’t read, so I copied them for him secretly, never wanting his mother to find out.
After filing a complaint, we both received beatings. But speaking of it, when I was in the mansion, I received less beatings than the young master."
"Ah...I was pretty much the same before." Jun Aoyan smiled bitterly, "But if you can't learn anything, you have to work. If you don't work, you have to live. I guess it is the same for this young master."
"Alas, you don't know something. I have been thinking since I got to know you, if only he was half as brave as you. There are ignorant servants in the house who bully the young master for his weak temper, and more people feel sorry for him. But the young master is really a
A good man, he never vents his anger on me. He always reminds me of me when he finds something delicious and fun. Later...he once
When we were made to stand, the friends from the neighboring street secretly called us out to play in the water. Unexpectedly, the mountain stream suddenly became turbid that day, the clouds suddenly changed their faces, and it started pouring rain. His parents rushed over with their servants and yelled at him
When we came back, we all came up. Although he knew how to swim, he was too angry to go ashore, so he was swept away by the water..."
"I'm afraid this young master doesn't have enough spiritual roots." Bai Ya said calmly, "Otherwise, he can summon fire and water without using any spells."
"Yes, it's because of his poor foundation that his parents always forced him to practice. I was really afraid at the time. I was afraid that the young master would die, and I was also afraid that I would not have food to eat. Being beaten and punished was the next best thing. These two things are in the
They all have the same weight in my heart
, thinking about it, it is also due to my selfish personality. I have no choice but to fight for food with my brothers and sisters since I was a child, and I can't be generous. I couldn't sleep that night, fearing that he would turn into a water ghost and look for me, so I had a dream,
In the dream, the young master said yes
If he is going to die, he has to intercede with his parents in a dream for us. I don’t know whether this is true or not, and whether this dream is false or real. His parents really didn’t do anything difficult for us, they just recommended a good family to me.
let me keep working
After their son died, they dismissed many servants, and they were listless all day and night. Later, it seemed that he declined, and it was related to his father's work. From then on, I never dreamed of that young master again, nor heard of him again.
News about his family."
After hearing this story, the expressions of the two people did not change much. But Qi Huan could guess that the two people's hearts would not be calm, but rather ripples of turmoil. Seeing that no one spoke, Qi Huan asked Jun Aoyan again:
"By the way, can you tell me about your...Uncle Xi? I'm really curious about how a great general like your father became a close friend with such a scholar? He should be a close friend, look.
He is very interested in you."
Aoyan shook her head gently: "I don't know much. Before picking me up, my father and Uncle Xi were already close friends. I asked occasionally, and my father said that they grew up playing with urine and mud together.
Big.”
"Ah?" Bai Ya suddenly raised his head, "Really?"
"It should be true."
"Really, I always use water."
"..."
Qi Huan rolled his eyes and felt that his brain was throbbing with anger. I guess Jun Aoyan was not much better.
"Ignore him!" Qi Huan said angrily, "No matter what you say, he only talks nonsense all day long."
Bai Ya opened his eyes slightly, looking somewhat innocent, as if the conversation just now was his doubts from the bottom of his heart, and he never had any thoughts of making trouble. Jun Aoyan really didn't want to argue with him, so he continued.
"He was happy to mention it to me, saying that it was all destiny. Even though Uncle Xi is so fussy now, when he was a child, he blocked a knife for my father. My father said that he had a bad temper since he was a child, and he actually had an affair with a gangster.
There was an argument. Uncle Xi rushed up to take a stab for him, but was pushed away by the gangsters. After they left, my father was afraid that carrying him would make the wound worse, so he carried him back. Then there was a fight, and they dispersed.
Coincidentally, when my father first started to lead the army, he went to some remote areas. Although Uncle Xi studied hard, he was a bit stubborn and couldn't do things. Although he got the honors, he was not popular and could not be promoted.
Later, he was sent to live with my father because he spoke too bluntly, and the two met again... Later, they traveled to many places, and sometimes they met again. This is probably fate."
"That sounds interesting. It's good. I have more friends and it's easier to travel -" Qi Huan spread his arms, stretched, and wrapped his arms behind his head. But he seemed to think of something and suddenly sat upright again.
When he came back, he asked Aoyan:
"Your Uncle Xi doesn't have anyone, right?"
"Haha...he has no affinity with women."
"But your father is so talented, why hasn't he married yet?" Qi Huan joked, "Maybe it's because of you that I'm afraid of finding a bad stepmother to beat and scold you."
"I'm not afraid, and neither is he. And we all believe in his eyes." Jun Aoyan did not feel offended, but continued on the topic, "But... he once worked in a place called Qing Lize.
I fell in love with a young and beautiful local girl in a certain place. The girl was very young and I had a sister at that time. She was very nice and was kind to me and my father. She also said that she would give up her current life and join us in the army to fight.
Take care of me."
Qi Huan moved forward with great interest: "Wow, that's interesting. Then why aren't they together?"
"...Hahaha, my father had some savings, and she defrauded him of most of his money. Later we found out that she had a sweetheart in the local area, but neither of them had much money, so she did this on purpose.
My father is not the first victim."
Bai Ya rarely interjected again, but he couldn't say anything: "Are you war warriors so easy to deceive? You don't know how to bend your brain."
"How can you be good at strategy if you don't know how to turn around?" Aoyan retorted with some displeasure, "I only found out later that she had bewitched us all. She included me too, because she was afraid that I would notice that she was smart.
.Otherwise, she won’t be able to get involved with the money.”
"Did you get the money back?" Bai Ya asked lazily.
"Later, the army received an urgent order and rushed to other places to provide support, so the matter was dropped. I don't know what's going on now. Forget it, just donate it to the poor and do good deeds. It's just that my father is disappointed that he was deceived.
It’s been a while…”
"I didn't expect that General Jun is also an infatuated person." Qi Huan clicked his tongue, "My mother and my father are collaborating and loving each other very much. They only care about business and never think about coming back to see us with my father. They also spend their money freely.
Got it
.That’s why I said that by default, all parents love their children, and that all children should be loyal and filial. This is simply "generalizing and biasing", and not everyone can do it. Hey, by the way, Lao Bai, what kind of person is your mother?
What kind of person is he?"
The atmosphere finally relaxed, and the previous tense atmosphere was swept away, and the three of them started chatting in front of the campfire. Originally, Bai Ya closed his eyes to rest and had no intention of getting involved in the topic, but when he was inevitably nominated by Qi Huan, he also
Didn't open his eyes.
"I said my mother died giving birth to me."
"Oh, your father will always tell you."
Bai Ya opened his eyes, his eyes unchanged from before. There was no sadness or joy in his eyes. The two of them had only seen a long period of stagnant calm, and the occasional stirring ups and downs. Other than that, what were these eyes?
None of them are reflected.
"That's true." Bai Ya lowered his guard after careful consideration, "But it's very limited."
"Oh, we have talked so much, why don't you satisfy my curiosity?"
"You have to ask yourself, what does it have to do with me? Don't act like we're going to be together for a long time in the future."
"Why are you like this! It's only fair to say so."
"But there's really nothing to say."
Bai Ya's tone was very sincere. He spread his hands helplessly, but there was still silence in his eyes. The three of them didn't speak for a while, which seemed like Bai Ya deliberately messed up the atmosphere - well, that's it.
There were strange screams of creatures in the distance. Once it was quiet here, those foreign lands and strange phenomena became difficult to ignore and unforgettable. Bai Ya frowned and organized his words as if he had made a lot of determination. He was not
I don't want to say it, but I haven't said it yet and don't know how to say it.
"My father said that my mother... doesn't have a real name. He may or may not know it. You are right -" He looked at Jun Aoyan, "My father was once a member of the Zuojin sect."
"ah--"
"Zeng." He emphasized, "My mother changed her name after she came here. Only my father is her real name. My father never told me what her name was. Her surname was Hei. It was not a deliberate choice. The mark on this knife
To Hei Yu and Bai Qiong, it was a token of their love back then. The two of them... committed a murder together to establish their relationship, right? After all, it was life and death. Zuo Jinmen does not object to partners getting married, but they have to educate the child."
"Tsk, tsk." Qi Huan started again. Jun Aoyan listened carefully.
"Later... my mother died while on a mission, pregnant with me. My father protected her very well and could take care of others. I don't know the specific details, and I don't want to scratch my father's scars. She
She was pregnant with me and died like that."
Jun Aoyan really thought it was a miscarriage: "This...it turns out that it happened before you..."
"Yes. My father didn't just hit her with a knife, he had it a long time ago. He cut open my mother's belly and pulled me out."
Qi Huan and Jun Aoyan stopped talking. They looked at him, their eyes full of shock.
They didn't know whether it was this story that shocked them, or...
Bai Ya stated the shocking history - this incident so calmly.
