I don't know how long it took, but Zhou Tianlong slowly woke up. He felt that his head was swollen and his whole body was sore and weak. When he opened his eyes, he couldn't help but be shocked, because he found that he couldn't see anything.
There was no light around.
"Damn! What the hell is this place?" Zhou Tianlong cursed angrily. According to his guess, he should be locked in a small dark room at this time.
"Ah!" A scream scared Zhou Tianlong into a cold sweat. Zhou Tianlong shouted: "Who? Who is it?"
"Ah! What is this place?" The scream sounded again. This time Zhou Tianlong could hear it clearly. The scream was actually made by Liu Yuchen.
Suddenly, Zhou Tianlong felt a smooth palm gripping his arm, and the hand was full of tremors.
Zhou Tianlong was stunned, wondering why Liu Yuchen suddenly grabbed his arm, and why her hand was shaking so hard at the moment and was very cold.
"Sister Liu, what's wrong with you?" Zhou Tianlong asked softly.
"I'm afraid... I'm so scared... I'm afraid of the dark..." Liu Yuchen's voice was trembling.
"Afraid of the dark?" Zhou Tianlong was stunned. How could a dignified warrior be afraid of the dark? Although he was confused in his heart, he did not say it out loud.
"Zhou Tianlong, come here, come closer to me!" Liu Yuchen said softly, her voice still trembling.
"What?" Zhou Tianlong's eyes suddenly lit up, his heart beat hard, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. Then, Zhou Tianlong nodded heavily, although Liu Yuchen couldn't see his nod at all. Then
, Zhou Tianlong gently sat towards Liu Yuchen.
A faint fragrance emanated from Liu Yuchen's body. Zhou Tianlong felt intoxicated and his heart beat violently.
Although he couldn't see anything now, he could clearly hear the breathing of the beautiful girl next to him. There was a slight rush in her breathing, and it seemed that Liu Yuchen's heart was beating very hard at this moment.
Feeling the cold and trembling palms on his right arm, Zhou Tianlong gritted his teeth, gently placed his left hand on the girl's cold palms, and said softly: "Sister, don't be afraid, I'm here!
"
To Zhou Tianlong's expectation, Liu Yuchen didn't resist at all. Even though Zhou Tianlong put his hand on her jade hand, a trace of warmth spread from Zhou Tianlong's hand. Immediately, Liu Yuchen's body slowly moved and tightened.
Leaning closely against Zhou Tianlong.
Feeling the soft body next to him, Zhou Tianlong's heart beat faster. He could clearly feel Liu Yuchen's whole body trembling, and he murmured: "Zhou Tianlong, don't leave, don't leave me.
I'm afraid of being alone, I'm afraid of the dark!"
Zhou Tianlong gently patted Liu Yuchen's jade hand on his arm, and said softly: "Sister, don't worry, I won't leave; don't be afraid, as long as I am here, I won't let anyone bully you!"
Suddenly, Zhou Tianlong felt Liu Yuchen sobbing slightly, as if there was infinite grief in his heart. Zhou Tianlong was just about to say something to comfort him, when he suddenly felt Liu Yuchen's head slowly leaning on his shoulder. Suddenly, Zhou Tianlong's
My body trembled as if being electrocuted, and my hands and feet were a little unnatural.
Slowly calming down the boiling blood in his heart, Zhou Tianlong turned his head slightly, and his face touched the girl's smooth black hair. At this time, the beautiful girl leaned tightly on his shoulder, and the fragrance of her hair blew into Zhou Tianlong's face.
I had a bout of fever last time.
Zhou Tianlong never dreamed that Liu Yuchen, who seemed cold and strong, would have such a fragile side, and what he never expected was that this side would happen to happen to him.
Yes, no matter how powerful and beautiful she looks on the outside, she is only a fourteen-year-old girl after all. She also needs the care of others and a shoulder to lean on.
Zhou Tianlong knew that Liu Yuchen must have some sad past, so he stopped talking and just patted her hand gently. The two of them sat quietly like this. There was silence in the room, except for Liu Yuchen's low sobs.
.
I don’t know how long it took, but Liu Yuchen finally broke the silence and whispered to Zhou Tianlong: "Zhou Tianlong, do you know why I am afraid of the dark?"
Zhou Tianlong shook his head and said nothing. He only heard Liu Yuchen slowly say: "My father was originally a dragon-riding general of the Tianyu Dynasty, named Liu Changqun. Ten years ago, I was four years old. One night, I was sleeping
, my father suddenly woke me up and asked me to hide in a small wooden box under the bed, and told me that no matter what happened, I would never come out."
"It was pitch black in the small wooden box, without even a trace of light. I hid inside, so scared. Then, a lot of people seemed to come to the house, and then, there was a violent sound of fighting outside. At that time,
I was so scared, but I could only hide in the dark wooden box and didn't dare to move."
"There were various sounds coming from outside, and there were constant screams, which made me tremble all over, and I could only hide inside alone, surrounded by darkness. I didn't know what to do, fear and
Fear filled my heart."
"Then, the noise outside slowly dissipated, but I still didn't dare to come out. So, I stayed alone in that dark wooden box for three days, not daring to move, just sitting there quietly.
I don't even dare to cry out loud."
"Since then, whenever I am in a dark environment, I will think of that night, that terrible night, which makes me terrified." As she spoke, Liu Yuchen began to sob softly again.
Zhou Tianlong nodded slightly. As he expected, Liu Yuchen did have a sad and painful past. He said nothing and continued to listen to Liu Yuchen:
"Three days later, someone opened the wooden box and dragged me out, who was already sluggish. The person covered my eyes to prevent me from seeing the scene around me. Then, the person took me to the palace, where
The Rain Emperor told me that my whole family was dead and he wanted to send me to the Tianyu Sect."
"I cried and yelled not to go to Tianyu Sect. I wanted to find my father and my mother, but Yuhuang said that they were all dead. After my repeated crying, Yuhuang finally took me back.
I was at home, but there was no one at home. There were only hundreds of coffins parked in the courtyard. I fainted at that time and didn’t know anything else.”
"When I woke up again, I was lying on a bed. There was a kind-faced old man beside the bed. He told me that his name was Yu Dongyang and that he was the leader of Tianyu Sect. He also told me that from now on, I
I am a disciple of the Tianyu Sect. Then, he sent me to the outer gate and worshiped me under the sect of the Great Elder Yu Qingquan."
Speaking of that painful and sad past, Liu Yuchen's voice trembled violently, her head rested tightly on Zhou Tianlong's shoulder, and her body also trembled violently.
"It turns out that Senior Sister Liu is also an orphan!" Thinking of this, Zhou Tianlong didn't know where he got the courage. He held Liu Yuchen's hands tightly with his left hand, took her hands off his right arm, and then suddenly wrapped his right arm around her.
Liu Yuchen's slender waist held her tightly in his arms.
At this moment, he had a feeling of sympathy. The girl in front of him, like him, had lost the love of her parents since she was a child. But the good news is that neither of them gave up or despaired of life, no matter how big their hearts were.
Despite their fears, they all face life optimistically and still work tirelessly.
At this time, Liu Yuchen had no intention of resisting at all. She let Zhou Tianlong hug her tightly. In Zhou Tianlong's arms, she felt extremely warm, and the fear in the darkness slowly disappeared. She suddenly raised her arms,
Gently hug Zhou Tianlong's neck.
Feeling the smooth and tender touch on his neck, Zhou Tianlong's heartbeat suddenly increased. Although he couldn't see it, Zhou Tianlong could feel Liu Yuchen's alluring and beautiful cheek just below his face, and her breath was like
Orchid can be blown gently onto Zhou Tianlong's face.
The two hugged each other tightly like this. After a long time, Zhou Tianlong felt that Liu Yuchen's mood had slowly stabilized, and then he slowly asked: "Then have you investigated clearly now? Who harmed your whole family?
"
Liu Yuchen shook his head: "I don't know until now. I once asked His Majesty the Rain Emperor, but he didn't know what kind of tyrannical force my father had offended, which could actually bring down the majestic Dragon Cavalry General's Mansion overnight.
They were all wiped out." At this point, her voice trembled again, as if she was remembering that terrible night that year.
Zhou Tianlong felt her body trembling again, and hurriedly stroked her silky long hair with his hands, slowly calming her emotions.
After a while, Zhou Tianlong felt that her emotions had calmed down, and then he slowly said: "Senior Sister Liu, do you know? In fact, I am also an orphan!"
Liu Yuchen was suddenly startled: "What? Are you an orphan too?"
"Well!" Zhou Tianlong nodded and smiled bitterly: "Actually, you are much happier than me. You have met your parents since you were a child and received their love. Although they are no longer here, their voices, looks, and smiles are still there.
But it is firmly engraved in your heart."
"As for me, I have never seen my parents since I was a child. I don't even know what they look like or what their names are. From the time I can remember, I have been in Tianyu Sect. No one knows where I come from, and no one knows
Who are my parents? Neither my master nor the great elder knows, and maybe the sect master doesn’t know either. My life experience has always been a mystery."
Speaking of this, Zhou Tianlong suddenly felt a sore nose, and a few tears fell down. Suddenly, he felt a smooth jade hand touch his cheek, gently wiping away the tears for him.
Zhou Tianlong reached out and grabbed the smooth and delicate jade hand, and said seriously: "But so what? No matter who they are, no matter whether I can find them or not, I will live strong and optimistically!"
