Time soon came the next day

The corpses and dirt in the inn had been cleaned overnight by the disciples of the Azure Cloud Sect. At first glance, it seemed that there was no difference from usual, except for the huge crack in the roof, which reminded everyone of what happened here.

As soon as yesterday's incident was over, the first thing Qingyuan did was to go to Jing An's house. As expected, there was no trace. He must have been rescued by Jing Xiu. Afterwards, he counted the surviving disciples and found out with great pain that there were no more disciples. in half.

When they came, they had a total of eight disciples and twelve boys, but now, only him, Cen Yu, Meng Xun, and two disciples in the middle stage of foundation establishment were left as disciples, and there were only four boys left. It can be said to be a heavy loss.

Yuan Heng disappeared early in the morning, leaving only a letter to leave. The six unconscious Qinghe sect disciples were also taken away by him. According to the letter, Yuan Heng planned to directly Throw it at the foot of Qinghe Zong Mountain, love it to death.

If it had happened in the past, Qingyuan would still panic in his heart and persuade Yuan Heng to calm down, but after yesterday's incident, Qingyuan even felt that it would be cheap to throw these rubbish at the foot of the mountain.

Of course, they also suffered retribution.

Thinking of this, Qing Yuan subconsciously glanced at Shi Gu's room not far away.

To be honest, even though a whole night has passed, Qingyuan still hasn’t recovered from the shock, and even pondered for a long time whether he has done anything to offend Shigu in the past. Other than some coldness, everything else is fine.

The other two disciples in the middle stage of foundation establishment were a little worried, with bitter faces, tossing and turning all night, so that when they woke up in the morning, they still had two huge dark circles—they said old bad things, and More than once.

In this regard, Shi Gu, the instigator, knew nothing about it and was still unconscious.

Yu Zhan disappeared yesterday after healed Shi Gu's wounds, leaving only a delicate and small incense burner on Shi Gu's bedside.

Inside the censer, misty smoke curled up, lining Shi Gu's bloodless face with tranquility and peace.

If someone who knows the goods is present, they must be able to recognize it immediately. This incense is unique to Shifangxu and is the best quality that is hard to change: Yan Luoxiang.

Although Yan Luoxiang is named Yan Luo, it is not because of its efficacy. On the contrary, its efficacy is extremely mild, but it is of great benefit in calming the nerves and helping sleep. .

It's a pity that the raw material of this incense grows in the Shifang Market, and the place where it grows is extremely difficult to find. There are also some beasts who are out of their bodies or even distracted. However, since then, he has gained the name of Yan Luo.

I don't know if it's because of the fragrance, but Shigu has had a rare sweet dream for more than ten years.

Although, there were some twists and turns in the beginning of the dream.

In the dream, he was very short, not much taller than the table, a small ball, running around in his small yard.

Suddenly, he fell down.

There is a lawn under him, and it doesn't hurt to fall, but the little Shigu couldn't stand the grievance, and cried "Wow", earth-shattering.

Soon, with a burst of anxious footsteps, Shi Gu was gently embraced by a pair of hands.

They were the hands of two women, the same slender and white hands as before, only a little smaller, and there was a delicate bracelet with pendants of the letters "S" and "G" on their wrists.

While picking him up, the man patted Shi Gu on the back comfortingly, and coaxed in a low voice: "Little Gu, it doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt, mom is here."

A gentle voice can always soothe a child's emotions. After a while, the boy in her arms gradually calmed down, and the woman gently placed him on the ground, revealing her entire face.

It was a very beautiful face, seven points similar to Shi Gu's, but the lines were softer. At this moment, there was a smile on his face, so gentle that it seemed to drip water.

But what is slightly different from tenderness are her eyes.

Those are eyes that are completely different from the old ones.

Shi Gu's eyes are more calm, deep, and barren, but this pair of eyes is mature, rational, stable but not losing enthusiasm.

——This enthusiasm does not refer to character, but a kind of enthusiasm for life and hope for the future.

That was a later time, an emotion that I had never had before.

"I'm already a four-year-old kid, why are you still wrestling? Huh?" The woman asked with a smile, tickling the tip of Gou Shigu's nose.

Hearing this, Xiao Gu immediately straightened his chest, and wiped the tears on his face with a pair of small hands indiscriminately: "Xiao Gu doesn't cry, Xiao Gu is a man, and men never cry!"

The woman laughed, and pinched Shigu's tender face: "Yes, Xiaogu is a man, but little man, why are you running around in the yard?"

Shigu was stunned.

Afterwards, the little Shigu lowered his head, pulled the corner of the woman's clothes in embarrassment, and said with a little expectation in his voice: "Mom, Xiaogu wants to go out to play..."

The woman has a meal.

Her eyes suddenly became complicated, with sadness and guilt, and she was about to say something, but a heavy cough interrupted the two of them.

Shi Gu stared blankly at the person who was coming.

It was a man who was too tall for his childhood. He looked about 1.8 meters tall. He was dressed in a suit meticulously. He looked straight at the mother and child with a serious expression.

It could be seen that Xiaogu was very afraid of him, and the moment he came, he hid behind the woman and poked his head out cautiously.

However, he was afraid, but the woman was not. Immediately, she frowned and looked at the passerby coldly: "If you have a throat problem, get it treated. If it can't be cured, go outside and cough it up. Don't make a mess of it here."

The serious expression on the man's face immediately froze, he looked at Shi Gu subconsciously, and said in a low voice: "The child is here, can you show me some face."

"You know it's a child!" Hearing this, instead of softening, the woman raised her voice with anger.

"Since he was born, I found out that he was wrong, four years! Has he ever gone out for a day! You also know that he is a child! A child! This year is only four years old. A child who needs companions, friends, and needs to go out to play!"

The woman didn't know how long she suppressed these words, so angry that her hands trembled a little, she pointed at the man fiercely and said, "Shi Gaochi! Are you going to imprison him for the rest of your life?!"

Shi Gaochi was taken aback.

He and Bai Yi have been married for more than five years, but this is the first time he has seen him yelling so disregarding his image.

After a moment of silence, he slowly said: "That's not because you don't want to send him..."

"Shi Gaochi!" The anger on Bai Yi's face could not be suppressed at all, and his voice became sharp: "Why send it away! Send it away for human research! Do experiments?!"

"Yes, he is indeed different from ordinary children, but this is not the reason for you to suppress his nature and deprive him of his freedom!"

"Besides, I don't think there is anything wrong with him being like this now, at least he can protect himself, and no one can hurt him!"

"Nothing wrong?!"

Shi Gaochi also became angry, and said loudly: "Being different from others, this is the biggest bad thing!"

"Xiaoyi." Taking a deep breath, Shi Gaochi tried his best to calm down his emotions, and said to Bai Yi as calmly as possible: "You have to know that in this world, no one will allow the existence of aliens, especially Xiaogu. There are too many aliens who are stronger than ordinary people, do you understand?"

Time seemed to stand still for a second.

A second later, Bai Yi got up and turned his back to Shi Gaochi: "I don't understand."

She raised her head and looked at the outside of the courtyard indifferently. It was the outside world that she had been thinking about since she was a child for four years, and as a mother, she didn't even dare to fulfill his little wish.

Then, she squatted down again, and gently wiped away the tears that were frightened by the quarrel between the two on Shi Gu's face, and said softly, "I only know that he is my son."

"Mother……"

When I was young, I held Bai Yi's finger carefully, crying sobbingly: "I'm sorry... Xiao Gu was wrong, Xiao Gu, Xiao Gu will never go out again, mom won't be angry..."

"Hey, mom is not mad at you."

A drop of water fell on Shi Gu's forehead, he was stunned for a moment, then raised his head blankly.

"fine."

Bai Yi touched Shi Gu's head, with no expression on his face, and no trace of crying could be seen, as if the teardrops just now were just Shi Gu's illusion.

"No matter what, Mom is here."

That night, the little Shi Gu hid in the quilt and cried for a long time.

That was the first time he clearly realized that he was special, although he didn't know what it meant.

But he didn't expect that the next day he would wake up in Bai Yi's arms.

The car was driving smoothly on the road, heading towards a place that Shi Gu didn't know, Bai Yi sat on the back seat holding Shi Gu in his arms, seeing him awake, he gently stroked Shi Gu's cheek.

Then, she took out two beautiful pieces of paper.

At this time, Shi Gu's knowledge of words is still very limited, but he can understand the picture above - it is the picture of the Ferris wheel that often appears on TV and is the favorite of children.

Shigu widened his eyes in shock and surprise, looking dark and bright.

"Don't worry, there are three chapters."

Smiling, Bai Yi stretched out three fingers, and the letter pendant on the bracelet also flickered.

Shi Gu imitated her movements curiously, and also stretched out three fingers.

"First, keep it secret and don't tell Dad."

Shi Gu nodded repeatedly, so he wouldn't tell, Shi Gaochi would swell his ass.

"Second, hold my hand all the time and don't walk around."

"Hmm! Mmm!" The child who was carved in powder and jade was nodding his head like garlic.

"The third, and most important thing." Bai Yi's expression turned serious, and he corrected Shi Gu's sitting posture.

"Absolutely, absolutely, you can't do it with anyone."

"I know." Shi Gu raised his right hand, with a big smile on his face.

——That was the swearing gesture he learned on TV.

"Dad told me that even if you are beaten, you can't fight back."

Bai Yi was taken aback.

She doesn't know this.

But she opened her mouth, but sadly found that she had no way to refute.

Shi Gu, who was young, didn't know her complex psychological activities at the moment, held up two tickets to the playground, and smiled brightly.

This is Shi Gu's first time going out to play.

He had never been so happy, so happy that even when he was asleep or in a dream, there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, under the hazy incense, it was peaceful and beautiful.

Unfortunately, the good times are always short-lived.

Before I knew it, it was night and it was time to go home.

Holding Bai Yi in one hand and candied haws in the other, Shi Gu reluctantly turned his head and looked at the crowded playground.

At that time, he thought, when he grows up, he must come out to play every day.

However, he didn't know that this would be the only time in his life that he came out to play.

……

"Boom-boom--"

A disturbing knock on the door suddenly sounded, awakening Shi Gu from his dream.

Shi Gu opened his eyes, looked at the strange room, and was at a loss for a moment.

This is... where?

But soon, he reacted.

This was the inn, the room he hadn't had time to live in yet.

There seemed to be someone whispering at the door, but Shi Gu didn't really want to answer at the moment.

So he pretended not to hear, looked up at the beams of the roof, in a daze.

Actually... that dream, there should be another part.

Shi Gu thought in a daze.

In many cases, he would rather empty his mind than recall the past.

But now, as if the memories of the past could not be restrained, scenes emerged before his eyes.

That was just now, a period that I haven't had time to dream about yet.

In the memory, Bai Yi held his hand and looked at the still noisy playground with him, without moving for a long time.

The figures of two people, one big and one small, should have been a very warm scene, but at this moment, for some reason, they looked a bit bleak.

"It's time." Bai Yi said suddenly.

She didn't move her eyes, she still looked into the distance, the lights of the playground at night were wanton, reflected in her autumn-like eyes, there was a special kind of determination.

Xiao Shigu raised his head suspiciously.

In my impression, Bai Yi was gentle and gentle when facing him, with a smile on his face, but at this moment, Bai Yi was so dignified that he felt strange.

"Mom doesn't know what the future will be like, but there is one sentence that I hope you can remember."

She paused, looked down at Shi Gu, and slowed down her speech: "No matter what happens, never give up."

"Never...don't give up..."

Shi Gu murmured and repeated Bai Yi's words.

But... At that time, Bai Yi probably could not have imagined that the child she cared for would eventually become a mental illness.

"Sorry……"

Shi Gu gently closed his eyes.

I really am... a disappointing child.
