He's been caught for the show.

later than yesterday...

This is a dilapidated temple that was simply tidied up in the countryside. There is no sundial or hourglass around, so Chen Yin can't tell the exact time.

But he was sure, later than yesterday.

At this time yesterday, that person had already returned...

So what about today?

Why hasn't he come back yet?

Is there any danger?

No, no, that's... ah.

Are you stuck by something?possible.

Maybe it took a longer time to walk a little farther today; maybe I met someone on the road... Rumor has it that Xie Gongshan is kind, maybe because of the injustice in the road, he gave a helping hand, so it took some time...

While thinking wildly, Chen Yin couldn't help picking his nails anxiously.

He was resisting the lingering guess that kept coming to his mind: Is he not coming back?Will he really come back?

He can do just fine on his own.

Even though it has been more than two hundred years since he opened his eyes, and the vicissitudes of life have changed, and things have changed, he still reintegrated into the world at an extremely fast speed, as fast as if the general he saw in the ice layer wearing the armor of the former dynasty was just a Field illusion.

It was him who was more difficult to survive.

—he was a trouble, a big trouble.

Chen Yin had such a clear understanding.

Even if you don't mention your identity, it's the same——

The boy's thumb unconsciously scratched at his nails, but his palm clenched a bit of fabric.

The clothes were completely incomparable with the ones he used to wear, both in terms of style and material, but this was already the result of the replacement.

After coming out of the cave at the side of the cliff, the child's clothes that the other party found for the first time put on his body almost immediately sharpened red marks on his skin. It took half a day, and blood was even seen on the cuffs and arms , The man was silent for a while after realizing this, and when he came back again, he brought him back this piece.

I still need to buy medicine...

Almost not long after settling down, he developed a high fever for unknown reasons, and he just retreated a few days ago.

He couldn't enter the city, because his temperament was incompatible with this place, and neither of them could withstand the scrutiny of their identities.

The same is true of that person's temperament, but unlike him who can't hide it at all, if that person wants to, he can instantly restrain the killing spirit on his body.He can be a ranger, a farmer, or a hunter in the mountains... He was placed in the grass, and watched the man chat with passers-by in various identities, and then get the information he wanted to know .

……

…………

All the troubles, all the difficulties, are because of his existence.

As long as he is thrown here, everything can be solved easily.

See it.

The other party has no reason to continue to take him...

Chen Yin can still sit here and wait quietly at this moment, but it depends on the promise of "return before nightfall" from the other party before leaving.

——Historical records "Thank you for your promise, and people at that time ask for it."

But with the passage of time, shadows gradually appeared on the horizon, and finally this flimsy reason was not enough to continue.

Chen Yin was overwhelmed by great fear.

Will he die? !

Just died here so quietly.

The nails were cut bloody, and the negative emotions that were forcibly suppressed emerged again.

Fear, unwillingness, resentment!

Why did he have to die? !Why is he the one who died? ! !

……

A phantom appeared in front of him again in a trance, it was the nightmare that haunted him every day and night these days.

He broke free from the arms of the palace man who was pulling him, but saw...

The mother and concubine held her sword across her neck, and blood flowed out.

It seemed that some hot liquid had splashed on his face, and it was so hot that he couldn't help shivering.

Cognition becomes dull and blurred, the current scene is reflected in the eyes, but the brain can't process it, and someone next to him is shouting something, but it seems to be blocked by an invisible barrier, and it can't fall into the ear at all.

He opened his eyes blankly, looking at everything in front of him incomprehensibly.

Why?Why is the concubine lying on the ground?

The floor was dirty, and the concubine's favorite Liuxian skirt was all covered with mud.

He ran over to try to pull the concubine mother up, but it was so heavy and heavy that he couldn't pull it up...

Father Emperor.

Yes, Father...

He looked up at his blood father, his royal father.

... His father was also looking at him.

The father who would coax him, tease him... smiled and said to him, "I can give you whatever Yin'er wants"... the father...

On his face was a ferocious expression that Chen Yin had never seen before.

Looking at each other, the other party smiled.

The corners of his eyes and the side of his face seemed to be pulled by the dark red traces of paint splashes, and his expression was as ferocious as that of a ghost.

He said: "Yin'er, hurry up, come to Father Emperor..."

Huge fear hit his heart, Chen Yin involuntarily let go of the hand holding his concubine mother, and took a step back with hands and feet.

This move seemed to have angered his father, he immediately turned cold: "Yin'er, come here."

It was a cold tone he had never heard before.

Chen Yin saw...

The royal father picked up the sword—the sword that was stained with the blood of his mother and concubine...

Driven by some kind of survival instinct, Chen Yin once again disobeyed his father's order, he couldn't help but retreat, and continued to retreat.

Until, the arm supporting the body suddenly pressed empty.

He turned around in amazement.

Behind him was a bottomless cliff, and the gravel rolled down with his empty arm, but he couldn't even hear the echo.

And in front of him is the long sword that is still dripping with blood...

……

…………

In the end, he saw Concubine Mu's wide-open eyes facing the edge of the cliff, empty and without a trace of expression.

……

In the weightless feeling of falling, Chen Yin unexpectedly remembered last night that his concubine hugged him, touched his face over and over again, and asked in a hoarse voice, [From now on... listen to your father carefully. ]

It was because he "didn't listen", so——

Is the royal father angry?

……

…………

...painful, so painful...

It is difficult to breathe, even if you open your mouth desperately, you can't take in air.

It hurts, mother and concubine, Yiner hurts so much...

I don't know if it was the scraping of the leaves or the cutting of the strong wind, but the exposed parts of the whole body were only pain.

The humming sound in the ear was rapid and sharp, and the pain seemed to be numb after a long time.

……cold.

so cold...

Someone grabbed his wrist suddenly, and Chen Yin was startled by the scalding temperature, jumping up like a cat with its hair blown.

It was Chu Lu who stretched out his hand to cushion it, so that the back of the child's head would not collide with the wall intimately.

For Chen Yin's stress-like reaction, the system laughed at the maximum decibel without hesitation, but the only thing it could disturb was the host.

Chu Victim Lu: […]

It was his mistake to turn off silent mode.

Amidst the system's howling and admitting its mistake, Chu Lu indifferently silenced himself again.

"You're back!"

Seeing Chu Lu who came back, Chen Yin blurted out.

After a pause, he pretended to be natural and added, "Father!"

Of course, in Chu Lu's feelings, the meaning of the dry title added later is very obvious.

Chu Lu: "..."

"........."

He couldn't help showing a bit of an indescribable expression.

It's not just because he wakes up with a big boy, but more because of this name, both the caller and the listener feel uncomfortable, but Chen Yin really has an inexplicable insistence on it.

Chu Lu responded briefly.

Of course, he didn't agree to the sentence "Dad", but replied to Chen Yin's previous sentence "You are back".

As for the title...

While going out to find the "ID card", he also probably heard about what happened recently, and had some guesses about what might have happened to the child.Since calling it that way can make the child feel more or less safe, Chu Lu just turned a blind eye and let him go.

On the contrary, the system did not express any opinion on the other party's title, which made Chu Lu a little strange.

The system that was brutally banned: [@#￥%...&]

——There are too many people calling the host "Dad", this kid wants to be a "son" and has to be ranked!

Of course, Chu Lu couldn't judge the real meaning of the weak electric current from the system. He was holding the child's cold hand to lead him in, carefully avoiding the wound on his hand.

The piece of flesh next to the fingernail of the child's index finger has already been scratched bloody by himself, but he doesn't seem to feel it. This will be pulled by Chu Lu, but he didn't resist. He just looked up at the person——

After a while, he said with a stiff tone, "You said 'return before nightfall'."

It can be heard that the child is already trying to restrain himself, but the tone still has some questioning meaning.

Chu Lu didn't mind much.

This short time together is enough for Chu Lu to deduce that this child is definitely spoiled. I am afraid that apart from the accidents that happened some time ago, there may be nothing that goes wrong in the future. Such a situation only occurs occasionally. A little bit of arrogance is already extremely rare... After all, this is just a child.

Chu Lu didn't speak, but just signaled the sky outside.

Although there are already some shadows cast on the horizon, no matter how you say it, it can't reach the level of "falling into the night".

The boy pursed his lips and stopped talking.

Like a well-behaved little black cat, Chu Lu pulled it inside and sat down, then pulled out its injured paw to bandage the wound.

When Chu Lu was knotting the bandage, he said abruptly, "You came back later than yesterday."

[… He waited for a long, long time.

I didn't even think he would come back. ]

After the words fell, Chen Yin froze.

He shouldn't have said that...

He is not qualified to say such words with the meaning of "accusation" and "resentment".

Chen Yin even showed some helplessness in his eyes.

Past experience could not tell him what to do at this time.

What should I do if I say the wrong thing?

What came to his mind was the scene of the palace people slapping themselves or begging for mercy, which he saw in the palace of Concubine Yu when he went to look for the third sister.

The concubine mother would not let the palace people do this.

He has eavesdropped on the conversations of the palace people, the concubine mother is the kindest lady in the palace.

but why? !

Why was Concubine Rong, who was mean to the palace people, not scolded, and Concubine Yu, who everyone was afraid of going on duty in the palace, was not scolded... Instead, his mother and concubine were accused of being a "demon concubine"?Obviously they said that the mother and concubine are "kind-hearted people"! !Obviously they said so! !

Perplexity, resentment, grievance...

He subconsciously wanted to dig his nails, but was blocked by the thick cloth belt.

A hand with a thick callus fell on top of his head, and it rubbed his hair twice gently.

Then, there was a deep male voice.

The man said—

"Sorry, not next time."
