Picked up a little dumb on the side of the road

Xiao Yi followed Wei Xun out of the hall, and as soon as he returned to Wei Xun's bedroom, he sat in front of the bronze mirror.

Wei Xun looked at the young man's calm eyes in the bronze mirror, and didn't know whether he was grateful or disappointed.

He stroked Xiao Yi's hair, feeling particularly uneasy, always feeling that Xiao Yi was too calm today.

In the past, no matter how close Xiao Yi was to him, he always refused to let him touch his hair; but today he let him touch it, neither angry nor hiding.

"Brother, help me tie my hair." Xiao Yi said lightly.

Wei Xun fixed his eyes on the threadbare section of Xiao Yi's hair.

The uneasiness in my heart is even worse.

Xiao Yi has been a beginner for more than three years, and she is no longer the "dumb girl" she used to be, but he can't even tie his hair well. How could Wei Xun never teach him?

But he really can't control this matter--

Xiao Yi always tied his hair with that piece of rotten gauze silk. The cloth had no pattern, and even the edges were fur. It was still a little blue at first, but it had faded to white over the years.

At first, Wei Xun thought that the child had nothing else to use, so when he went down the mountain, he searched for some delicate hair and brought them back for him.

Xiao Yiyi accepted it, but never used it once.

But the torn silk is inelastic and slippery, and there is silk hanging beside it, and the short section doesn't even have a shape, how can the hair be tied up?

Wei Xun cleared his throat, "Then I'll find you a hair tie."

"Brother, help me tie my hair." Xiao Yi repeated, "Just use this."

This is like the previous attitude... Wei Xun thought to himself.

Before, every time he talked about this weird headband, Xiao Yi always changed the subject, and if he asked again, the child would still be angry with himself.

The attitude is the same as now, without any good color.

"I've said it many times." Wei Xun stretched out his hand and gently removed the rag. He spread the thing in the palm of his hand and handed it to Xiao Yi. "Look, this thing can't tie your hair."

"It's not a thing!" Xiao Yi grabbed the "hairband" with anger in his tone.

After being silent for a while, Wei Xun couldn't hide his inner unease, and finally asked, "What are you trying to say to me?"

Xiao Yi didn't answer.

He slowly turned his face away, closed his eyes, and locked his brows together with such force, as if the most terrifying thing in the four seas and nine states was about to appear before his eyes.

Then he slowly pushed back the hair covering his left ear...

There was silence.

The noon sun in the dog days is dazzling, and at this moment, he is climbing over the window and lying on Xiao Yi's face.

Wei Xun stretched out his hand, and the fingertips trembled violently.

He even forgot to catch his breath, and stretched towards Xiao Yi's protruding ear; when he was about to touch it, Xiao Yi turned his head slightly and dodged it.

He didn't even notice when Xiao Yi opened his eyes.

Probably dazzled by the sunlight.

He retracted his hand, and when he was hanging in the air, not knowing where to go, Xiao Yi took a breath and grabbed the hand, bringing it to his ear.

The boy's tone was still calm——

"Wei Xun, you owe me this, you have to pay it back."

Come back alive and give it back to me...

Xiao Yi just held Wei Xun's hand like this, carefully feeling the familiar temperature of that hand tremblingly caressing the gap on the tip of his ear.

Yes, it hurt Wei Xun's eyes more than sunlight——

That gap.

Like a white rainbow piercing through the sun, it tore open the flesh and cartilage of Xiao Yi's ear, also tore the blazing sunlight that spread there, tore the bite mark on Wei Xun's shoulder, and tore his heart and lungs.

A cut, about the length of a little knuckle, split the area above the pinna of the left ear in two.

"You promised to celebrate my birthday with me before, but you didn't come. That's the second time you missed the appointment." Xiao Yi said softly, "Do you remember? There was another time before."

"I packed my bags and waited for you in my room. I waited for three days. You didn't come when the night passed on the third day."

"There was a customer outside who paid a big price, and Yu's mother came in to look for me. When she saw the burden, she thought I was going to run away again, and she swung her hand to slap me..."

"I'm terribly afraid, Wei Xun, I'm terribly afraid."

"I don't have anything, but they all say that I'm good-looking, and I only have this face, and I depend on it for food and life. I have been carefully applying medicine to my face for the past few days, and just put some powder on it. Nothing happened."

"I'm afraid that if I hurt my face, you should abandon me when you look back..."

"I can't let her slap me in the face! Then I saw the scissors on the table..."

Xiao started talking incoherently, looking left and right.

"I don't want to hurt her, I just scare her! I can't let her hit me in the face... What if you see me and don't want me!"

The more he spoke, the more anxious Wei Xun felt that the hand that was pinching him began to tighten.

"But I don't have the strength... I didn't do anything in those three days. I didn't even go out to pour a glass of wine. If I don't work, I won't have food! I'm hungry...but I'm afraid you will bump into me when you come...in case you dislike me What should I do if I don't want to be dirty..."

Shaw gasped heavily.

"But she's strong, she's so strong! I can't grab her... She snatched the scissors away, and she said I was going to kill her... But I didn't! I really didn't... I was just afraid! I was afraid... ...cough cough..."

I'm afraid you won't want me.

The intense panting has turned into a choking, Wei Xun withdrew his helpless hands and hugged him into his arms.

In the past, he always looked forward to hearing the other party's past from Xiao Yi's mouth, but now——

He didn't want Xiao to continue talking.

At this moment, he just felt that holding this person in his arms was not enough to protect him, nor was it painful enough to hold him in his palm.

From the moment I saw Xiao Yi lying at my feet on the first night, I should take the person away in my mouth, carry it with me wherever I go, and not let anyone get close to me.

He tried his best to recall the scene of taking Xiao Yi away that day.

In his memory, Xiao Yi's hair was disheveled that day, and the injured ear was pressed against his chest when he was in his arms. He hated himself for not noticing this.

But he remembered that Xiao Yi was wrapped in white cloth everywhere that day, he just thought it was the medicine from the previous injury, and didn't pay much attention to it.

Thinking about it now, it was all intentional.

Leaning in the familiar embrace, Xiao Yi finally managed to breathe steadily, but his mind seemed to be still not clear, and he could only repeat over and over——

"Don't want me..."

Wei Xun put his arms around the person, patted the other person's back to smooth his breath, Xiao Yi's breath calmed down, but his own breath was not even yet, and he didn't have the face to say a word of comfort.

I don't know how long it has passed, Wei Xun felt the person in his arms raised his head, "Because I'm a trouble, I can't give you anything, so you don't want me anymore, right?"

Wei Xun used to go down the mountain often, and he didn't even have time to say hello when he was in a hurry.

But Xiao Yi could feel that this time was different.

From the moment Wei Xun's smile entered the corner of his mouth in the morning, he was deeply trapped in fear and couldn't extricate himself.

It's not that he couldn't hear or understand the farce in the hall just now.

He just didn't want to hear it, didn't want to understand it.

Wei Xun only felt that his back molars were crushed by himself, so he choked out two words: "Yes."

How could I not want you.

"What do you want? I'll give you everything I have. Can you...don't go?"

But Wei Xun, what else do I have?

Xiao Yi felt scared. He had nothing, and he relied on his face to live in Zui Huan Fang. At that time, he tried his best to protect his face for fear of being rejected by this person, but to this day, there is still nothing around him that can turn people away. Leave.

He couldn't answer his question by himself, let alone Wei Xun.

What should I answer?

Xiao Yi, do you think I want to leave?

If I don't go, you go.

Not to mention that the pity is still at the foot of the mountain and we can't escape. Could it be that the two of us ran away and Qinggang sent a hundred people to take our lives?

Xiao then asked in a low voice, "Did you take me away because I was good-looking?"

Wei Xun lost his temper in an instant when he asked this question, and the heart-piercing emotions just now were instantly choked up, and he didn't know where to put it.

He took a big breath, and lightly flicked Xiao Yi's forehead with his index finger, "What are you thinking? Do you consider me your benefactor?"

Um...a guest?

correct!

Xiao Yi frowned and thought, what is on him, there are always people who spend a lot of money to want it but can't get it...

"Then don't go, you and I..."

What are you doing with me?

He thought about that word for a long time, but he didn't see any cultural people in Zuihuanfang, and he didn't read many books after going up the mountain, so he couldn't find a subtle expression.

"I'll sleep with you!"

"You...cough...cough..."

For a moment, Xiao felt that his use of the word was really bad. Wei Xun was so frightened that he coughed and loosened his hand.

He could only lower his head wearily, buried his face in the arms in front of him, and stretched out his arms to embrace the person in front of him.

It was always Wei Xun who held him, carried him, carried him, and coaxed him. Most of the time he fell asleep, but he was rarely awake.

It was the first time he reached out and hugged Wei Xun.

Since I can't give you anything, at least I will give you a hug.

Although it's not as warm and powerful as what you gave me, but besides, I really don't have it anymore.

After Bian Xingcan left, it was the first time that Wei Xun was surrounded by someone around his waist, and he felt himself awake with a jolt.

How could he not know how ridiculous Xiao Yi's words were, and how desperate he felt.

Isn't the only thing left for a person who has nothing to hand over in the end is himself?

He embraced him again, and Xiao Yi's head drooped on his chest.

In an instant, he felt that the person in his arms was still the small ball that lay on his shoulders back then, and had never grown up in recent years.

Nothing has changed.

He set his tone, "Where did you learn these stupid words?"

"I know I'm not a real girl...but I..." Xiao Yi seemed to suddenly think of something, suddenly raised his eyes and said, "Do you mind this?"

This is the question!

Wei Xun cursed secretly, how should I answer?

Say you mind, I just despise you?

Or don't mind, I'm just a broken sleeve?

"Last time I said that you can think about anything, now take it back, don't think about it...you wait for me to come back and take you away..." Xiao Yi's open ear tip was right in front of his eyes, and he raised his head Not daring to look again, "Let's go to live by Lize Lake, plant lotus and water chestnut... never again..."

Never let anyone bully you again.

Never again, never leave you alone.

But he couldn't say it.

Xiao Yi didn't continue talking, he just looked up at the person, "Brother, this is the third time you have asked me to wait for you, there are only three things, this time you have to keep the promise."

"it is good."

Wei Xun hated himself for always making promises so easily.

Can you come back?

Xiao Yi, they want my life, and you want my life too.

What I owe you, I am willing to pay you back in this life.

But, can you come back?

Wei Xun didn't know what kind of terrible direction things would go if he stayed in such emotions.

He let go of Xiao Yi, spread his hands, and the amber and silver bell appeared in his palm out of thin air.

He squatted down and landed on one knee, "Your master said it has a spirit. I discussed it with it for a long time and told it to protect you when I leave. I don't know if it agrees, but you should take it with you first."

As he spoke, he lifted up Xiao Yi's trousers, and tied the chain to Xiao Yi's ankle.

His fingers touched the skin of his ankle, and his whole body trembled again.

It's too cold.

he thinks.

In fact, when Xiao Yi couldn't hear his voice but seemed to be able to hear the bell that night, he thought about giving this bunch of things to Xiao Yi, but he never found a chance.

He was able to promise Xiao Yi that there would be no more accidents in front of Xu Qingyan and Jiang Fengzhuo, partly because he thought the string of bells was useful.

Although I can't say why, it seems that I know it in my heart.

The author has something to say: the first volume is coming to an end in just a few chapters!After the elder brother leaves, he won't really go offline, but the children who leave the elder brother will really grow up.
