【Xue Xiao】Desolate City Crossing

He was lying on the ground, waiting, waiting, until his whole body was completely cool, then he heard the sound of footsteps, a corner of the white cloth on his head was lifted, Xue Yang closed his eyes slightly, and when he opened, a red cloud The elegant face that has not faded suddenly fell into the eyes.

"I hurt you? Why lie still?"

Xiao Xingchen squatted beside him, clutching the white cloth of the sleeping tent with one hand, watching him with slightly moist eyes, actually with a hint of concern.

Xue Yang regained his composure, and felt that the face overlooking him was not as angry and disgusted as he imagined. His thoughts turned, and he continued to lie on the ground, pretending to be in pain. Pain... How much spiritual power did the priest use? Could it be that he wants to slap me to death?"

Xiao Xingchen was stunned, his mind was confused just now, he just wanted to push Xue Yang away, he was not sure how much spiritual power he had used, whether it was possible to really hurt Xue Yang, he reached out his hand half-believingly to probe Xue Yang's spirit body, but unexpectedly Xue Yang took the opportunity to grab his hand like lightning, got up quickly, stared at him eagerly and said, "Xiao Xingchen, I was wrong, don't be angry."

I didn't hear an answer for a long time, but felt the hand I was holding struggled slightly.Xiao Xingchen didn't speak, as if he didn't know how to answer.Xue Yang held that hand even tighter, and the silk thread of the Soul-Binding Curse was wrapped around Xiao Xingchen's wrist, as if it was his last life-saving straw, no matter how Xiao Xingchen shook him, he would not let go, just He felt that the temperature of that hand was getting hotter and hotter. Under the influence of the firelight and the night, he couldn't see that Xiao Xingchen's face, which was about to return to fairness, turned redder, and even the neck exposed by the white collar was also tinged with pink.

The person whose hand was grabbed stood up, and Xue Yang also stood up.

Xiao Xingchen had no choice but summoned Jiang disaster with the other hand, pointed at Xue Yang and threatened, "Let go."

Xue Yang didn't even think about it, his heart broke, and he said in a loud voice: "If you want to chop, chop it, I won't let go, unless you promise me not to be angry!"

If Xiao Xingchen can vent his anger by chopping himself a few times, then it doesn't matter if he is chopped. Xiao Xingchen is a soft-hearted person. As long as he hurts himself, he will never get angry again. It's just that his soul has never been injured by a fairy weapon. , I don't know what the consequences will be.

The dark Jiang disaster swayed in front of his chest, and the tip of the sword fell to the ground weakly.

If Xue Yang could calm down a bit, he could see that Xiao Xingchen was not angry at the moment, but was in pain and embarrassment. He repeated as if sighing: "Xue Yang, let go."

However, Xue Yang was in a state of confusion. The more Xiao Xingchen repeated these two words, the more he believed that Xiao Xingchen was angry, and he was angry but not angry. This appearance scared him the most. How cruel a mild-tempered person can be when he is decisive. Xue Yang experienced it ten years ago.

"Xiao Xingchen, I didn't mean to belittle you on purpose...I just want to tell you that I like you. I said that I would never marry in my life. I just want you to accompany me. Those are all true! I'm staying in Yicheng Three years, just because I like being with you."

"If I could do it all over again, I would never do any of the things that hurt you and made you sad."

"Xiao Xingchen, whether alive or dead, you are my most important person, I will not deceive you again, and I don't want you to leave me again, I...I couldn't say it just now, I just wanted to kiss you , I didn't expect, I didn't expect...you believe me!"

Xue Yang grabbed Xiao Xingchen's hand tightly, and kept explaining clumsily that his feelings for Xiao Xingchen sprouted unconsciously, and only after the farewell became more vigorous and irresistible, he could not express this feeling. The eloquence of the past has disappeared, but I feel that I can't express my passionate emotions, and I can't wait to dig out my heart to show that person.

Xiao Xingchen didn't dare to look directly at Xue Yang. He had Xue Yang's memories and emotions. When Xue Yang said those words, he was almost burnt to the chest by the hot emotion in Xue Yang's soul. He didn't know whether it was joy or sorrow. He turned his head and said, "I believe you, but..."

"Stop!" Xue Yang interrupted loudly, "Xiao Xingchen, I know what you're going to say, I just hope you know about this matter, and don't ask for any answers. Also, what happened tonight is just this one time, don't make it an example, you You can't drive me away!"

Xiao Xingchen adjusted his breath for a moment, his eyes followed the hand that was tightly grasping him, and seeing the tense and red-faced look of the young man in black, his tone slowed down and said, "Should I be an example?"

"Don't be an example!" Xue Yang nodded, "Then don't get angry, and don't drive me away!"

I really can't tell whether this tone is a soft begging, or a domineering order.

Xiao Xingchen's voice softened again, and he said, "We still have to save the wraiths and track down the house-grabbing organization together, how could I drive you away?"

After the words fell, Xue Yang felt his hand shake back as if being comforted, the strength was so light that he couldn't detect it. He was too nervous, and he didn't know if it was his illusion. With this uncertain comfort, the secret in his heart Desire is again nourished by ambition and emerges.

"What about after that? Can we be together forever? Xiao Xingchen, in the sky and on the earth, I don't want to go anywhere except where you are. Without you, I'm just a lonely ghost. Promise me, no matter what happens in the future." If you hate me and hate me, you won't abandon me."

It would be best if he could go with his companions, if he couldn't, he would have to go to heaven and earth to chase him down. In short, he didn't want to see Xiao Xingchen leave indifferently, or even disappear, that was the most serious punishment, and it tortured him for eight years.Although he is now with Xiao Xingchen every day, Xue Yang has never forgotten the torture of Yicheng.

The corpse in the coffin was pale and quiet, the soul in the spirit lock bag was fragmented, the Yizhuang hut that once warmed him was so quiet that it made people crazy, and in severe cases, he even had auditory hallucinations, thinking that the old man returned, but there was nothing when he turned back, only a strong Fog shrouded the dilapidated city of Yi, and even the streets we walked together were deserted, without any trace of the past, and the person who smiled at him warmly and softly would never be found in the sky or in the earth——that kind of feeling was too much. Terrible, he never wanted to go through it again.

Xue Yang knew that he had too many sins, so many that he couldn't remember them all. He didn't know what unbearable behavior Mingyue Qingfeng would find out one day, let alone Song Zichen, who might appear at any time, like ten years ago. The same as before, came to shatter his dream and take away the person he was attached to.Extinguishing Baixue Temple is the first of all regrets, but a big mistake has already been made and cannot be undone.Therefore, he couldn't wait to make a promise. Xiao Xingchen is a trustworthy person, as long as he promises, he won't go back on his word easily. If Xiao Xingchen turns his back on him in the future, he will have an excuse to keep him.

He only thought about this aspect, and didn't realize at all how similar the promise he asked for was to the vow of eternal love between Taoist couples, but Xiao Xingchen was clearer than him, and understood the weight and significance of this promise.

"Xue Yang," Xiao Xingchen's voice was gloomy and deep, "There are still more than 100 resentful spirits that have not been saved. I am restless and cannot consider other matters."

"Then what about when the wraith spirit is saved?" Xue Yang asked hopefully.

The two looked at each other quietly, the leaves in the mountains rustled, and the flames licked the wood and made a crackling sound.After a moment of silence, Xiao Xingchen looked at the young man opposite with calm condemnation mixed with some expectation: "Let me ask you, hundreds of vengeful spirits were caused by you killing people during your lifetime. Have you ever felt guilty or guilty towards them?" regret?"

"..."

Xue Yang was stunned, unable to answer this question for a moment.

regret?What he regrets is that the killings in the past created a gap between him and Xiao Xingchen today, making it difficult for him to get close to the person he has been dreaming of.But he knew that what Xiao Xingchen wanted was not this kind of regret.

He didn't have what Xiao Xingchen expected.

Xue Yang frowned, and said in embarrassment: "I don't want to lie to you, and I don't want to disappoint you. But I was born cruel and vicious... I am willing to save them with you, and I hope they never met me, I hope they Reincarnated as soon as possible, I can assure you that as long as you are here, I will not kill people indiscriminately in the future, but more, I don’t have the kind of compassion like you.”

With Xiao Xingchen's deep sigh, Xue Yang's heart sank to the bottom.

Countless sins, ignorance of repentance, but still wanting a firm and warm company, is really wishful thinking and shameless——Xiao Xingchen must think so.

Just now he was eager to dig out his heart for others to see, but now he remembered that he had no heart, and if he wanted to dig it, he could only dig out a stone, which was cold and hard, he was a monster, his soul was empty, without consciousness. Something Stardust wishes he had.From the eyes of others, he already knew about it.It's just that there is still a pair of eyes that are too gentle in the world. In the reflection of those eyes, he mistakenly thinks that he has a heart.

With just a few words, this illusion was shattered, he held the heart made of stones without hiding, turned his head to look at the fire next to him, and let go of Xiao Xingchen's hand.

Those are a pair of hands that eradicate evil and do good. They belong to a person who is the most compassionate, zealous, soft and warm, completely opposite to himself. Even if he holds them in his hands, that person is still too far away from him. This distance is even farther than the distance between life and death. .

Do you want to get this person's permanent company, you can only use coercion or deception, just like 13 years ago?

Xue Yang lowered his arms and looked at the fire, two groups of flames were reflected in his eyes, the weather was uncertain, and a thick gloom welled up in his chest.Countless ideas collided and intertwined, and some of them were malicious schemes.

He wants to kill, but also wants to destroy himself; wants to destroy, but also wants to rebuild; wants to protect, but also wants to defile.

He was thinking like crazy, if Xiao Xingchen wanted to leave him, what extraordinary plans would be feasible at that time, would he be imprisoned or drugged?To die together, or to coexist?I was so absorbed in thinking that I shrank my head in shock from the sudden touch on the top of my head.

Looking up, he found that the hand that was loosened by him was gently placed on top of his head.

Xiao Xingchen didn't regard him as a monster and avoided him like a snake and scorpion, but stood in front of him firmly and calmly, and even got closer, his fingers slowly slid across his forehead and landed on his hair. between.

Under that hand, Xue Yang didn't dare to move, thinking that he was dreaming.

"Taoist?" He murmured in disbelief, afraid of breaking the dream.

The eyes that stared at him were shining, like a vast and boundless starry sky.

"A Yang is not born vicious, don't say that about yourself in the future."

Gently stroking the hair on the top of Xue Yang's head, Xiao Xingchen recalled the child who was locked in a cage and killed in the memory fragments, and the young man who was trembling with his back turned to him after being drunk. His expression was complicated, and his voice was soft and seductive, " A Yang has made progress, it's my fault, I shouldn't be too anxious. Take your time, everything will be fine, right?"

Xue Yang was shocked, and looked at the kindest person in the world in surprise.

Get better?What will be fine?What is Xiao Xingchen talking about?

Could it be that Xiao Xingchen still thinks that the villain who murdered him is not hopeless even though he was once harmed to the point of losing his eyes, losing his friends, being tainted with sin, and almost being dragged into hell?

"Xiao Xingchen..."

Xue Yang clenched his fingers, lowered his head, deeply ashamed of his sordid and sinister thoughts just now.Under the touch of that hand, all the evil thoughts in his mind disappeared, and he wanted to walk in the direction pointed by this hand from now on.

He believed in Xiao Xingchen, and Xiao Xingchen also believed in him.

Suddenly, everything around him melted like ice and snow. Xue Yang felt the touch on the top of his head, as if he had returned to the past, under the heavy and hard wheels, in the dark and bloody cage, in Yicheng alone, struggling with every pain Where he passed by, the person he had been waiting for came.

The most amazing thing is that the old wounds and pains seem to be understood without words.
