—Go back, back to that dark and cold place.

——That is your world.

For half a year, all the sunshine in the world has receded, as if it was a beautiful and untouchable dream like soap bubbles.He woke up, and he was still in the darkness, only the familiar boundless emptiness, desolation and hopelessness.

The deep voice hovered in his mind, and the blood under his feet turned into countless ferocious and rotten sharp claws, slowly climbing up, tearing at his nerves greedily.

He was like a broken stone sculpture abandoned in the ruins, letting the heavy rain wash away the dirty blood, trembling violently, sinking back into the cold and raging abyss bit by bit.

— Stop struggling, let go.

——He won't want you, come back, we are all waiting for you.

——You can kill as much as you want, dance with us crazily, drink blood, and eat flesh and blood.

One by one, the devil broke off his fingers clinging to the edge of the cliff, and opened his rotten and terrifying embrace.

But another voice rang in his ears, standing on the opposite side of the nightmare, pulling him back from the brink of collapse time and time again.

Yu Chuan hugged him tightly in the rain, kept calling his name in his ear,

——Who is calling me, who is it.

"Xiaoran, Xiaoran, Xiaoran..."

Yu Chuan kept calling him, and never let go of his hand. His body temperature gradually warmed Xiao Ran's cold chest, and brought him back to his senses bit by bit.

Xiao Ran's chaotic mind regained a sliver of clarity, and he recognized that it was Yu Chuan's voice, and it was the light that he tightly guarded in his heart in the Great Rift Valley.

This light illuminated his remaining consciousness again, dispelled the diffuse black mist, and illuminated a road leading to the world.

Yu Chuan pulled his hand down, and the forehead was broken by himself. The blood flowed into his eyes along with the rain, and then slid down from the eye sockets, like a tear of blood.

Xiao Ran stared at him blankly, afraid that Yu Chuan in front of him was just a dream that appeared countless times in the Great Rift Valley.

"Xiao Ran." Yu Chuan squeezed his chin and forced him to look at him, "Do you know who I am?"

Xiao Ran looked at him for a long time, and said with difficulty: "Yu... Chuan."

Yu Chuan's hand caressed his cracked forehead, and his warm palm fell on his cheek: "Look at me, don't think about anything, just look at me."

"Yu Chuan." Xiao Ran said hoarsely.

"I'm here."

"Yu Chuan." Xiao Ran called him again.

"I am, I have always been."

Xiao Ran hugged him in the sea of ​​corpses and blood, and put all his weight on him.

——I'm sorry, Master.

——I said to let you rely on me, but it seems that I am the one you need to rely on the most.

——Don't want me...

Looking at Xiao Ran like this, Yu Chuan felt as if thousands of sharp knives were stabbing and cutting in his heart, the pain was so painful that it was hard to breathe.Xiao Ran's body was ice-cold, and he hugged him tightly in the torrential rain, like holding a life-saving straw.

He supported Xiao Ran's body, followed his back again and again, until his shortness of breath gradually stabilized, then he raised his hand and summoned his rhinoceros leopard, wrapped him in a rainproof cloak, and wrapped him up. Holding tightly in his arms, he rushed out of the city.

Xiao Ran gathered his limbs, huddled into a ball and leaned against his arms like when he was a child, let the cloak cover his head and face, pressed against his warm chest, listened to Yu Chuan's heartbeat, and slowly closed his eyes.

"What about the two of them?" After they left, two heads stuck out from behind the eaves.

"I don't know." Little Ma said.

"The escape is settled?" Gu Lancang asked him.

"Yeah." Little Ma nodded, "Why don't you stop me."

"It's already like this when I come back. And in his state, do you think I can stop him? It's like crazy." Gu Lancang said helplessly, "If I want to go up, I will only be caught by him and run away with two people Going to tip off the news, the consequences will be more serious."

"Aren't you injured?" Little Ma looked up and down his bloodstained body.

"Nervous." Gu Lancang gave him a supercilious look.If a legendary martial artist can be injured by these gangsters, then he can die with regret.

(96)

Yu Chuan took Xiao Ran along for a quick ride, and returned to the training center three days later.

Xiao Ran's condition has gradually stabilized, but he hasn't spoken a word.He didn't dare to close his eyes, and once he fell asleep, he would fall into the nightmare again, struggling and unable to wake up, the pain and torture were all in the dream, gnawing at every inch of his flesh and bones.The shadow that had gradually dissipated once again quietly shrouded his body. In addition to the boundless sadness, there was also a faint fear.

It's not the fear of not being able to climb out as usual, but because of Yu Chuan.

He killed all 67 guards and Li Jin in the backyard of the Li family. He used the cruelest method he was best at, exposing his most inhuman appearance to Yu Chuan in a bloody way.If Yu Chuan knew his experience of being neither human nor ghost, no different from a monster, would he still want him?

If Yu Chuan thought he was a monster, not human, what would he do to him?

He didn't go to Yu Chuan's room again, didn't attend class, and didn't open the door.Yu Chuan knocked on the door several times, but there was no response when he was inside.

He didn't dare to get closer to Yu Chuan, but he was also reluctant to leave.

He didn't light the fireplace or light the lamp at night, and sat on the bed with his legs crossed in the familiar darkness and low temperature, silently listening to Yu Chuan walking, writing, and sighing next door.

He knew that Yu Chuan was worried about him, but he didn't dare to see Yu Chuan, he was afraid that Yu Chuan would ask him what was wrong.

"Knock, knock, knock", the knock on the door sounded again, "Xiao Ran, open the door."

Xiao Ran retracted his head into the crook of his arms, and blocked his ears with his arms.

After a while, the knocking and talking disappeared.Xiao Ran still buried his head in his arms, as if he was about to merge with the darkness.

There was a sound from the balcony, Yu Chuan followed him directly to climb over the balcony, stood in his room, frowned, glanced at the dark room, and lit a lamp.

Xiao Ran raised his head and saw Yu Chuan walking towards him in the night holding a lamp.He looked at Yu Chuan's face in the candlelight, watched a faint candlelight push back the darkness around him, and came in front of him.

Yu Chuan touched his face and forehead, then turned to light the fireplace.Xiao Ran reached out and grabbed him: "Don't..."

Yu Chuan turned his head, and he immediately retracted his hand.He just subconsciously didn't let Yu Chuan leave even half a step, but he didn't dare to touch Yu Chuan with his cold, blood-stained hands again.

Yu Chuan shook his hand, "I'll light the fireplace and I'll be right back."

Xiao Ran watched him bend over and squat in front of the fireplace, the fire gradually lit up, illuminating the whole room.Xiao Ran squinted his eyes, feeling a little uncomfortable.

Yu Chuan sat on the edge of the bed, pulled off his hands holding his knees, and straightened his curled legs.He had kept this posture for several hours, and a numbness came from his legs, Xiao Ran frowned slightly.Yu Chuan looked up at his expression, and massaged his stiff muscles without saying a word.

Yu Chuan was not very good at serving people, so it was not very comfortable to press him.But after a while, he slowly relaxed his tense body.

"It's not numb anymore." Xiao Ran said.He hadn't spoken for days and his voice was hoarse.

Yu Chuan poured him a glass of water, and he took it and drank it slowly, carefully peeking at Yu Chuan.

"What are you looking at?" Yu Chuan pressed his other leg again.

Xiao Ran lowered his eyes, not daring to look any further.

"Watch it if you want." Yu Chuan sighed, "Didn't you watch it too much before?"

Normally, Xiao Ran would have looked at it with a straight face, but now he still didn't dare to glance at Yu Chuan, he only felt that his body was dirty, and he was afraid of staining Yu Chuan's eyes.

"I know you don't want to talk about it, so I won't ask you." Yu Chuan said, "But don't stop me from investigating."

Xiao Ran paused, and the water almost spilled over the quilt.

"I have to figure it out before I know what to do." Yu Chuan said.

"Don't go!" Xiao Ran suddenly raised his head, stretched out his hand to pull him, but raised his hand halfway and put it back.

"Xiao Ran, you are my apprentice, as long as you live, I have to take care of you." Yu Chuan took his retracted hand, and the warm touch came from Xiao Ran's hand, "I understand that you have made up your mind since you were young." , but I must know what you have been through. What are you doing if you haven’t replied to my letter for three years, and let Ma Ge cover you for three full years.”

Xiao Ran avoided his gaze and didn't reply.

"I know what you're worried about," Yu Chuan said, "You're afraid that I won't want you."

Xiao Ran's hand twitched violently, but Yu Chuan clenched it even harder: "I won't let you go, even if you become the devil of the world, I will control you until you die."

Yu Chuan said he would take care of him.

Will manage until he dies.

The grief and desolation that Xiao Ran had been suppressing all this time burst suddenly. He sat up and hugged Yu Chuan tightly, buried his head in Yu Chuan's shoulder, and cold tears rolled down from his eyes.

In his previous life and this life, Yu Chuan was the only one who took care of him.

The first half of his childhood memory was inside the cold courtyard wall of the orphanage, and the second half was the home where he was the only one left.

His parents died early, and he doesn't look like his parents in his memory.His relatives didn't want to take care of him, so they had to send him to an orphanage.

Later, a couple adopted him, and he also enjoyed the life of having a father and a mother for half a year. Although they didn't treat him very well and changed his name only for someone to take care of him in the future, Xiao Ran cherished every day. Time, carefully please the adoptive parents.Whenever they showed him a lukewarm smile, he would feel that the anxiety in his heart seemed to be reduced by half.

Half a year later, the adoptive mother who was originally judged to be infertile by the hospital was overjoyed
