Small bones

Qin Yong had countless thoughts in his mind, each of which was more terrifying than the last and made him almost unsteady. It was not until he remembered the little white bone, the little guy from the future, that he barely gained strength.

It'll be fine, Jiu'er will be fine.

His children will be all right!

Thirteen years later, Jiuer and Xiaogu are monks and immortals.

Fairy...

Immortals are not afraid of water...

When Qin Yong was young, he studied in Guozijian for seven or eight years. He was the concubine of the family, with a soft temperament, and he didn't like his father, and his aunt never liked him.When he was young, no one was restrained, so it was inevitable that he would be playful. Qin Yong didn't take serious classes in school, so he only wanted to play.

The advantage of being playful is that every inch of land in the Imperial College has been trampled to pieces by him, so he easily took a small path and sneaked all the way to the ice lake in the backyard.

More than ten years later, this frozen lake still looks like this. A sheet of thin ice has formed before the winter, and the water temperature is so cold that it would be unimaginable if it fell down!

Qin Yong pinched his thigh: Impossible, Jiu'er is the most cautious, absolutely impossible to fall into this icy lake!

He hid behind a rockery and looked at the Xu family outside.

Mrs. Xu was followed by a nanny, and there were about six or seven sturdy servants behind her. When Mrs. Xu gave an order, the servants jumped into the frozen lake one after another.

Seeing this, Qin Yong's heart sank again.

Xu's face was gloomy, and he paced back and forth.

The nanny persuaded her in a low voice: "Madam, don't worry, this matter won't cause any serious problems."

Mrs. Xu was upset, and she didn't hide it from her confidant nanny: "De'er was spoiled by me, and he developed such an impatient temper. Even if he wanted to kill Qin Jiuji, he shouldn't use it." Such a reckless method!"

These words drifted to Qin Yong's ears behind the rockery intermittently, making him feel like he was struck by lightning.

The nanny comforted Xu Shi: "Madam, don't say that, the young master is the most kind-hearted. He clearly saw that Qin Jiuji fell into the water and called us to find him."

Knowing that she had made a slip of the tongue, Mrs. Xu said softly, "I have to do this beautifully. A few days ago, the immortal from Tianyu Mountain praised De'er for her good character, so don't make troubles that shouldn't be said. of."

Mother: "They are all people who know the basics, Madam, don't worry."

Xu's heart was anxious, but she still couldn't help saying: "Why do you think it's two days away! But if Qin Jiuji dies in two days, our De'er will be a legitimate immortal inheritance..."

Mammy: "Just deal with it? It's clean, and it's not bad for two days."

Hearing this? What else does Qin Yong not understand?

He hid in the cracks of the rockery, with his left hand firmly grasping the rough rocks, his nails were cracked, and blood oozed out; his right hand was tightly covering his mouth, because of too much force, his joints were blue and white, and his lips were even scarred by his nails. The bloodstains were pulled out, and a pair of phoenix eyes that were often bent were full of tears rolling down.

He cried silently and desperately.

At this moment, Qin Yong just wanted to rush out, to fight those people to the death.

They are so vicious, they disregard human life for the inheritance of some immortals!

They...they pushed Jiu'er down the frozen lake.

They killed Jiu'er!

His nine children, his son, his life!

God knows how much strength Qin Yong used to control himself from rushing out.

He rushed out with only one death word.

He can't kill these? The murderer will be silenced instead.

When the time comes... what will Nuoer do!

His Nuo'er, what should Nuo'er who hasn't had a good day since the day she married him...

But how did he tell her this fact.

Their nine children...

Great despair enveloped Qin Yong, he hated himself to the core.

It was because he was too incompetent, and because he was too weak, he couldn't even protect his own wife and children.

He was a husband in vain, a father in vain!

The voice from outside brought back Qin Yong's thoughts.

The servant said in a hoarse voice, "I didn't find it."

Xu's voice was sharp: "How is it possible!"

The nanny hurriedly asked, "When did the young master see Qin Jiuji fall into the water?"

Xu said an approximate time.

The nanny said, "Impossible. If it was really in the frozen lake, it would have surfaced by now."

Xu's face was uncertain: "It's because we were busy, that kid may be good at swimming, and he may have gone home."

Mammy looked at the icy lake, and said in a low voice, "In this weather? If you fall into the water, you won't live long if you climb up. Ma'am, we still..."

How could Mrs. Xu not understand, she said: "Go home!"

If you make a fuss, she wants to? Let's see if the Qin family will let that wimpy Qin Yong decide.

The Xu family and his party left the Imperial College, and it took Qin Yong a long time to come to his senses.

They found nothing.

Jiu'er is not in the frozen lake.

Jiuer...

The little white and translucent skull reappeared in Qin Yong's mind, a flash of light burned in the man's long and narrow phoenix eyes, and he saw hope.

It's Xiaogu...

Jiu'er must still be alive!

Go home...they may have gone home already!

This thought is like a driftwood that a drowning man clings to. Qin Yong couldn't care about his bloody fingers, nor his frozen legs. He ran home desperately, exhausting all his strength to get home. run.

Dare not to think, Qin Yong didn't dare to think about anything, he could only do his best to numb his thoughts.

--go home.

——He has everything at home.

Mrs. Xu stood outside the door for more than half an hour. She didn't buy winter clothes, and she secretly changed the winter clothes she used to wear into father and son's inner clothes.Qin Yong refused to let her see it, she only said that she was not out of the house all day long, and it was not cold in the house.

In fact, how can it not be cold?

The charcoal fire given by Gongzhong was pitifully scarce in their hands.

Except for those few days in deep winter when it was unbearably cold, she dared not use it.

It's good to get used to the cold. Right now, she didn't feel much of the cold wind blowing, but she was so anxious that she wanted to run out to find them.

Late autumn is short, as if the sun was still hanging at the corner of the sky just now, and it will be completely dark after a while.

The black that can't be seen, the lonely black, the black that makes people feel cold.

Jiu'er didn't come back, neither did Qin Yong.

Mrs. Xu twisted her handkerchief, her light-white hands were bulging with veins due to too much force.

Why haven't you come back yet!

Is something wrong!

After all, Mrs. Xu couldn't wait any longer, she was going to find them, she...

jingle……

A series of jade stones colliding that should have been inaudible rang in Xu's ears.

She froze her body, and what came to her mind was an extremely absurd idea: it was not jade, but small bones.

Xu raised her eyes, only took one look, and the tears she held back for a long time flowed down.

The tears flowed so fiercely that she could hardly see the little figure walking slowly under the moonlight.

The night is deep and the moon is not yet clear.

On the deserted street? Only the jade-like young boy walked towards her step by step.

As she got closer, she saw his soft black hair, his porcelain-white face, and those eyes that were even more beautiful than black pearls under those long eyelashes.

Saw him looking at her.

Her nine children, her son.

For some reason, at this moment, she seemed to be reunited with him after a long absence.

Yes, reunion after a long absence, lost and found again...

In the white snow in winter, beautiful crabapple flowers bloomed.

Is it wandering? Hometown, parting sorrow...

At the moment of reunion, it turns into a crabapple and embellishes the clouds.

Xu walked over in a few steps, hugged Qin Jiuqing tightly, and said with a sob, "Jiu'er...Jiu'er...mother...mother's good boy..."

Qin Jiu was taken aback for a while, this warm embrace had become unfamiliar to him, and this young mother was also a little distant to him.

After the age of 15, he never saw her again.

The Qin family was burned to the ground, and even the bodies of his parents were burned to ashes.

He looked at the desolation, at the crumbling crabapple tree, at the home with nothing left...

Not a single cry came out.

Loss of voice in pain.

It took Qin Jiuqing a whole year to get out of this nightmare and to be able to make a sound.

What was his belief in living at that time.

Avenge your parents and find out who killed the family.

later……

He considers a thief as his father, extremely stupid!

Little Skeleton's choked voice pulled him out of the abyss: "Mother, don't you? Cry..." She cried so much that he wanted to cry too. It hurts to cry, don't you shed so many tears.

Qin Jiu took a deep breath and said in a trembling voice, "Mother, I'm back."

Xu let him go, and tried to wipe away tears: "Look at your mother, hey, what does she look like, just come back, if you have nothing to do, hurry... Come into the house..."

Little White Bone jumped onto her shoulder, trying to wipe her tears.

Xu held him in the palm of his hand and said with a smile: "Xiao Gu, please stop crying, mother."

Bai Xiaogu saw that she did not cry anymore, so he breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't? Cry, it will hurt."

Xu's heart was warm: "Well, my mother will stop crying from now on."

When the three of them entered the room, Qin Jiuqing asked, "Where's Daddy?"

Mrs. Xu hurriedly said: "You didn't come back so late, he went to the school to look for you."

Qin Jiu's heart sank lightly.

Xu said again: "He has been out for a while, he should be back soon, Jiu'er..."

How could Qin Jiuqing sit still? He said, "Mum, you stay at home, don't you want anywhere? Go, I'll go find Dad."

Xu's heart was startled: "But what happened?"

Qin Jiuqing didn't have time to explain, so first he said to the little bone, "Use the Qiankun Pearl."

Little White Bone quickly grew bigger, and took out the beads from his bosom.

Qin Jiuqing took out a house talisman and just stuck it to the courtyard gate when he heard footsteps.

Qin Yong ran fast and anxiously, his hair was disheveled, his face was devoid of any color, his lips were even paler and chapped, the blood from his fingertips stained the armhole, staining the white cuff shockingly.

Qin Yong couldn't see anything, Qin Jiuqing was standing in front of him, he couldn't even see him.

He ran home in one breath until his pupils dilated and his consciousness became blurred.

Qin Jiuqing stepped forward and called out, "Father."

Qin Yong was stunned.

Qin Jiuqing was afraid that he would lose his soul due to fright, so he hurriedly took out a green jade bottle from the Qiankun Pearl and put a drop between his eyebrows.

Qin Yong only felt a faint fragrance? It penetrated into the tip of his nose, and the coolness spread from the center of his brows to his limbs——his confused consciousness gradually became clear, and his out-of-focus pupils gradually became brighter.

The moment Qin Yong saw the little boy in front of him, he cried out in grief: "Jiu'er! Daddy is useless, Daddy is incompetent!"

Guilt, self-blame, remorse, fear...

Countless emotions entangled Qin Yong's heart, entangled his heart full of family members.

Qin Jiuqing had mixed feelings in his heart.

He had long forgotten how to cry, and had long forgotten what it felt like to shed tears.

After six years of hatred, he even forgot what his parents looked like.

But at this moment, he seemed to see their souls through the eyes of the little bones.

- a warm campfire.

In the dark night, in the cold ice and snow, in the endless abyss slowly burning bonfire.

Tiny, fragile, ordinary.

It is the light that guides life.
