chronicle of court survival

The candle burns, making a faint sizzle and melting sound.

The woman hugged the boy, put her chin on top of his head, and said softly with an extremely intimate gesture: "Unfortunately, a wall blocks the way to the end of the sea, and there is no going back."

"I have seen a lot of lingwei flowers, but I have never seen that sea again."

Her slightly long nails lightly slid across the side of the boy's face, and the moment they fell, they were like swords and swords sheathing.

The woman lowered her head, her silver-blue eyes were so gentle that she seemed to be drowning, and she seemed to be muttering: "Human beings classify us as monsters, but who will bring the unknown first."

The boy bowed his head, his body stiff and motionless.

The woman was in a good mood after reading a poem, she sat up straight and said with a smile.

"Okay, the story is over, go to bed."

Silently, the boy jumped off her lap.

Xia Qing, who was curled up under the bed, could see the boy's face clearly at this moment. Sure enough, it was the five-year-old Lou Guanxue.

When he was young, his facial features were not developed, he was indistinguishable from male and female, and he was as beautiful as a little girl. He had a cold face, pursed lips, and his face was pale and thin.With messy hair tied loosely with a whitish emerald belt, she walked barefoot to her bed.

Coincidentally, the bed that Lou Guanxue slept on was the one that Xia Qing hid.

"!" Xia Qing couldn't help holding his breath.

The woman sitting in front of the table also stood up. Her dress was light blue with white edges, like waves floating on a blue sea.The woman turned around, silently watching the child climb onto the bed, and obediently covered herself with the quilt.His expression carried a trace of indifferent scrutiny in the candlelight, but the orange light was too gentle, so he turned this scrutiny into a kind of quiet staring.

After a long time, she lightly blew out the candle and stood in the dark for a while before turning around and walking outside the bedroom.

Xia Qing murmured in his heart, could this woman be Lou Guanxue's mother?Sure enough, crazy.

It's just that before he could figure out the situation, he felt a slight movement from above, and something came down with a "boom".Immediately afterwards, a hand stretched out across the bed, reaching under the bed, and pulled his hair out, as if trying to tear his scalp apart.

Xia Qing hadn't had time to react to the pain, and in the next second, something cold was pressed against his neck.

He looked up and found that it was Lou Guanxue.

Lou Guanxue didn't know when she got out of bed, squatted halfway, holding a knife against his throat, her eyes were as cold and sharp as a beast in the night: "Who are you?"

Xia Qing: "..."

What he's thinking about now is that he has an entity now, isn't he a ghost?And he was squatting and looking at the five-year-old Lou Guanxue?So what is he like now? !

Lou Guanxue is not a person who talks nonsense and is indecisive, seeing that he doesn't answer, she raised her hand and raised her knife.

Xia Qing quickly regained consciousness, quickly grabbed his wrist, and rushed out. He has been gifted in fighting since he was a child, and it is easy to stop such a malnourished child.

Xia Qing threw herself on him, snatched Lou Guanxue's knife, and covered his mouth at the same time: "Shut up, I don't want bad guys—hiss!"

Without even thinking about it, Lou Guanxue bit his hand and bled.

Depend on!He shouldn't have agreed to that idiot Dizi!

"Are you a dog?" Xia Qing asked with light brown eyes full of anger.

Lou Guanxue fell to the ground, but she didn't look embarrassed at all, staring at him stubbornly and viciously.

Xia Qing didn't have much to say to such a ferocious wolf cub, so he cut straight to the point, "Don't go crazy, I'm here to save you."

Lou Guanxue remained silent.

Xia Qing said: "This is your obstacle, do you know that?"

Lou Guanxue sneered silently.

Xia Qing picked up the knife he had snatched from him: "The knife is in my hand now, I can kill you now if I want to. You are just a five-year-old kid, I don't want your life, I can do it what."

These words seemed to make his defenses a little broken, Lou Guanxue lowered her eyelashes, and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth expressionlessly.

It was all his blood!Xia Qing really hated her teeth - Lou Guanxue, I really owe you.

Lou Guanxue made a hoarse voice, hating the coldness: "Get out, I don't need anyone to save me."

Xia Qing had dealt with him who was a neurotic when he grew up, so he wouldn't be so angry with such a sentence, he smiled and said: "Sorry, I'm already in, and I can't get out if I can't save you. "When he is in a bad mood, he always likes to add "it" at the end of his words.

And Lou Guanxue was never stingy with her negative emotions when she was a child, looking at him like looking at an idiot.

There was a mole at the end of the boy's eyes under his eyelids. When he was a child, the mole was red, charming and cold.

He ignored Xia Qing and climbed onto the bed with his short legs.

Xia Qing: "..." As expected of you, Lou Guanxue!It's been so difficult since I was a child!

Xia Qing chuckled, followed behind his buttocks, and squeezed onto the bed begging for nothing.Grown-up lunatics are not easy to mess with, but can't he bully five-year-old Lou Guanxue?

Lou Guanxue asked coldly, "Do you have something to do?"

Xia Qing was in a hurry and spoke quickly: "It's not about me, it's about you! Come on, tell me what your current demon is, so I can get away with it."

Lou Guanxue looked at him for a few seconds, and really regarded him as an idiot.Put the quilt over your head and stop talking.

Xia Qing: "?"

Xia Qing leaped in the minefield: "Is your demon your mother?"

Lou Guanxue: "Get lost."

Xia Qing couldn't believe it: "Were you so hot when you were five years old?"

Xia Qing continued to ask, "When did you see me?"

Lou Guanxue sneered, "I'm not blind."

Xia Qing: "..."

Pulled like this, I really can't see that he has a demon, Lou Guanxue is someone else's demon, it's almost the same!

Although Xia Qing's thinking is relatively simple sometimes, but he grew up in an orphanage since he was a child, and he is carefree and heartless, which does not mean that he cannot perceive emotions.

After all, the first group of people he stared at quietly were his friends who lived with him.

Orphans have no father, no mother, wandering without roots, so sensitivity, low self-esteem, and paranoia seem to be the characters that are rooted in the blood.The orphanage is a big family, but the big family is destined not to take care of everyone's emotions. Xia Qing saw too many tears and struggled, feeling lonely and hesitant.

When Dizi said it was an "obstacle", he thought that what trapped Lou Guanxue would be a very tragic experience in his childhood, and he came to save the poor little one.As a result, the little poor didn't see it, but saw a bad wolf cub.

There is no pain and humiliation in his eyes, but only a cold and hostile spirit, honed in the abyss with a shocking rebellion.

Xia Qing stood up, poked his hand through the quilt and went downstairs to watch the snow, and thought for a while.

"How about I take you out of here? Leave that woman, leave this cold palace."

After all, this is where the pain comes from.

Lou Guanxue closed her eyes to sleep and ignored him.

Xia Qing looked at the child's tired and fragile face, swallowed the words that came to his mouth, and lay down depressed.

Forget it, let's see.

Xia Qing didn't know what he looked like the next day, and he also turned into a five-year-old kid.By the way, his clothes were several sizes smaller, his hair was disheveled and dusty, and he looked like a little beggar.

He took a picture of himself by the well.

The cold palace is dilapidated, and the grass is overgrown.

The well is the only source of water in the cold palace.And Lou Guanxue got up at dawn every day, picked up three buckets of water for backup, and also went to water the vegetables and dig the soil along the way.His hands are not as pampered and pampered as they were when he grew up. On the contrary, they are covered with various scars that have been accumulated over the years, some of which are as deep as the bones, which looks very terrifying.

In order to be courteous, Xia Qing volunteered to help him water the vegetables. He was warm and friendly, and at the same time wrote "quick success" on his face, pretending to be false: "It's so deserted here, and there is no one. Is your inner demon lonely? Well, now you I'm not alone anymore, I'm your good friend."

Lou Guanxue wiped off the sweat with her hands, her pale face was filled with indifference, she could already ignore his words.

Xia Qing looked left and right, caring as a good friend is the first step: "Oh, I'm going to steal medicine for you to bruise right now."

Lou Guanxue gave him a cold look: "Don't go."

Xia Qing: "Why."

Lou Guanxue tilted her head and said indifferently, "I've recovered from my injury, and there's more to do."

Xia Qing: "..."

Fairy, you are so cute, is five years old so unpredictable?

He thought he just didn't understand Lou Guanxue when he grew up, but he didn't expect that he couldn't understand Lou Guanxue when he was a child either!
