Silent Crown Chapter 33: Help me
After so many years, Ye Qingxuan always felt that Avalon was a place where he saw a ghost, whether it was before or after returning. Because here you may encounter everything.
such as the past that I don’t want to meet, and naked men who run wild at midnight...
But what happened today is beyond his acceptance. It's not that his ability to bear it is too bad, but that Lao Fei's number of stages is too high!
Over the years, Lao Fei has brought back money, dirty oil lamps, unplugged bottles, brass cups stained with unknown black stains, old rings, and I don’t know what language to use. Ye Qingxuan's broken book, a pottery pot with a gap, and jewelry that will produce hallucinations after wearing it... Ye Qingxuan agreed that this was Lao Fei's extensive hobbies, and then he helped throw it away.
—but what do you mean by turning a big, lively person back? !
Under the silent moonlight, the alleys are extremely quiet.
Ye Qingxuan stared blankly at the child in front of him. The dirty kid was wearing a tattered skirt, and he could vaguely see that it was white. But now the straps on the shoulders are almost short, turning into a ball of rags.
seems to have been beaten, with bruises and scars on her face, and wounds on her exposed calves. She was chased by someone, panicking.
Seeing Ye Qingxuan looking at herself, she stubbornly raised her head and stared at him, her eyes trembling with reluctance.
The moon shines on them, and the same white hair is as bright as silver.
"Yo, cousin."
Ye Qingxuan looked at the child of Yimianzhiyuan, and forced a smile: "Long time no see."
The little girl stared at him, her lips closed, but she didn't speak, and bit her tightly.
"That kid is gone!"
"Look again! I saw her run near here!"
Someone knocked on the iron rod in his hand: "She can't run far!"
In the distance, there are noisy human voices approaching, like running, searching, a broken sound.
There seems to be a lot of people chasing outside, but there is silence here. Old Fei held Ye Qingxuan's body impatiently, motioning him to stop talking and hurry up.
Ye Qingxuan understood. When staring at the girl, her eyes were complicated.
"What's your name?"
In his gaze, the little girl bit her lip and stubbornly refused to speak. Only when Ye Qingxuan was about to give up did he hear a faint voice.
"...Bai Xi."
"My name is Ye Qingxuan." He stretched out his hand: "Come with me."
The boy held her wrist, feeling her wrist thin and slender. The little girl did not resist, only a slight trembling could feel her fear.
—it's a kid after all.
Ye Qingxuan thought in his heart.
-
The next day
"There is a kid with white hair just like you. Is this a distant cousin who is here to run for you?"
Seton looked at him coldly: "Because the travel expenses have been lost, so maybe I have to stay here for a few days?"
"Uh, sorry, because there is no..."
"Where is the person?" Seton interrupted him.
Ye Qingxuan was under great pressure. After babbling for a long time, he beckoned to his back, so Old Fei excitedly pulled the little girl by the corner of her clothes and dragged her out.
She is no longer dirty. After taking a bath, she bandaged her wounds and wore Ye Qingxuan's old clothes. The sleeves and trousers were all pulled up, making her thinner and thinner.
The original white hair was covered by the tweed hat that Ye Qingxuan returned to her. Now she is bowing her head and looks like a child from a poor family, with low self-esteem and inferiority. Seen by Seton, he was just silent, saying nothing.
is like a well-behaved, quiet child, so pitiful... blame it! Ye Qingxuan didn't believe it!
The scar on his hand that was bitten by the bear kid last night is still not healed.
This kid lowered her eyes because her eyes were piercing, as if she was going to find anyone’s trouble at any time. She didn’t speak because she had gunpowder in her mouth. When she spoke, every word seemed like provocative.
looks cute, but the character is definitely not likable.
If she is really allowed to mess around, Seton will send her to the intensive care unit of Whitechapel...
Seton looked at her, but was silent, as if thinking. Next to him, Ye Qingxuan wiped his sweat nervously, waiting for the verdict.
After a long time, Seton said coldly: "Your man, you are optimistic."
"Huh?" Ye Qingxuan was a bit wrong, he thought he would be kicked out.
"Just like you, just take care of food. If you don’t have money, you will get out if you don’t know how to work."
Seton’s voice is not warm: "Boy, I am not a shelter here. So, remember: there is no next time."
"Yes, yes! Good, good!"
Ye Qingxuan breathed a sigh of relief, wiping cold sweat, and flattering beside him: The uncle clearly saw Wanli, and Avalon was illuminated by candles. Sooner or later, the world would be mega-shattered, and Anglu Yunyun would be overwhelmed...
At the end, Seton only said one sentence: "She is not your cousin, right?"
"..." Ye Qingxuan was stunned.
"Old Fei brought her back yesterday, I saw it."
Seton turned and left, coldly leaving behind the last words: "——I don’t know what those rascals want to do with her, but don’t cause me trouble."
Ye Qingxuan's heart jumped, and before he could say anything, he heard the voice of his going away:
"If you die in the store, it will be troublesome to collect the bodies."
Okay, Ye Qingxuan believes that he must be sincere in this sentence.
Thinking of this, he sighed and turned to look at Bai Xi, only to find her lying on the counter, looking at the clock curiously. Only then did she look like a child, quiet.
恩, just ignore her hand that reaches into the counter...
Snap!
Ye Qingxuan patted her sneaky hand: "Theft is prohibited."
"Cut, don't you have any purpose, don't think I can't see it." Bai Xi squinted at him: "You and that... that **** guy, must you want to abduct me?!"
When he said about the big black, she carefully probed her head to prevent Seton from hearing it.
Looking at her, Ye Qingxuan couldn't help sighing: "Look at you, there is not much meat in your body. Even if you are abducted, where can I go?"
"Then I don't know, some people have bad eyes!"
Bai Xi looked alert.
Hello! It's obviously you who is wicked! Who just reached out to steal something! I'm saving you! save you! It doesn't matter if you stole something, but after being discovered by Seton, you will definitely be sent to the intensive care unit!
I don’t know why, this little girl is a hedgehog! Yesterday night, Ye Qingxuan simply said it didn't work if she dried her lips in order to get her to take a bath and change her bandage.
She always feels that Ye Qingxuan wants to peep at her...
In the end, Ye Qingxuan had to help her lock the attic door, drew up the ladder, and ran to the back of the front desk to lay the floor.
stayed up all night, he heard all kinds of fine noises upstairs, he knew she was planning to escape, but she had nowhere to run out.
In the early morning, she finally fell asleep, not in bed, but curled up in the corner, huddled with Old Fei. Compared with people, she is more willing to believe in Lao Fei who can't speak.
maybe because it doesn’t hurt yourself.
Thinking of this, Ye Qingxuan felt a little sad. What happened to her that would make her look like this. It was precisely because he knew how difficult and painful the wandering days were that he could tolerate Bai Xi's weird temper. At least, she wasn't as... annoying as she was.
"Hey!"
Bai Xi sat behind the counter and looked at him, biting on the bread belonging to Ye Qingxuan.
Ye Qingxuan suddenly had a headache when she heard her uncomfortable voice: "You should call me big cousin...you heard it just now, there is a lack of a handyman here. Mr. Seton has very few words, but a good person. I am. Sooner or later, you have to leave. If you work harder, you can stay here."
He paused and told her: "At least you don't have to live that kind of deceitful life."
"……"
Bai Xi seemed to be irritated, like a cat blowing his hair, but he didn't say anything, just bit his bread and let out his breath. It wasn't until Ye Qingxuan's breakfast had been eaten, that she stopped in anger, staring at Ye Qingxuan without speaking.
"What's wrong?"
was cleaning the floor, Ye Qingxuan was stared at her uncomfortably.
Bai Xi bit his lip, he stopped talking, and finally made a sound, reluctantly asking: "Why are you saving me?"
"You asked me to save you."
"Stop kidding! I won't say that kind of begging you when I die!"
Bai Xi was irritated. She stared at him and gritted her teeth angrily: "Since I met you, there has been nothing good. I am chased every day~IndoMTL.com~ I lose all my money. Where do I need you to manage? !
Are you very proud to make a little girl thank you? Do you think I will be grateful for you for saving me! You just want to find some vanity in me, right? Do you want to enjoy the feeling of a little girl thanking you?
I tell you, no way! "
"……"
Ye Qingxuan was stunned, he was a little frustrated, not because he was sad, but because she didn't expect her to think so.
"I actually didn't want you to appreciate me, really."
He was a little embarrassed and helpless, and couldn't help but sigh: "Do you know? Someone saved me when I was in the most embarrassed time.
He gave me food, let me take a shower, stayed in a small town, and lived to this day. And gave me the reason for how to continue to live. "
He remembered the priest’s solemn expression, and couldn’t help but smiled in memory: "He told me that human language is not necessarily spoken from the mouth, because some words can be seen in the eyes."
"……"
Bai Xi bit his lip, did not speak, just glared at him as if to pierce his hypocritical mask and see through the sinister intentions.
"He told me that when he saw me for the first time, I stood in the mud with a fierce look, provocative and stinging eyes. Probably like you are now?"
He stared at the girl’s pupils, watching her anger, indifference, disgust, and the fear and scars hidden in the deepest part of his eyes:
"That look is saying, save me..."
