Abandoned

Chia Ya exchanged the peeled fur for a lot of money, bought some daily necessities, and prepared to go back to the mountains with a lot of things. From today on, she can only be Ah Chou forever.

Back then she was salvaged from the river by fishermen, and the mountains were on the other side of the river bank. Every time she went to the town to go to the market, she had to cross the river to return to the mountains.There are many fishing boats passing by on weekdays. As long as she pays a penny or two, the passing fishing boats will help her cross the river.Strange to say, she waited almost half an hour today, but she didn't see a fishing boat.

Just when Chia Ya was getting a little impatient, she saw a boat that was not a fishing boat, but looked like a pleasure boat for a dignitary.Chia Ya felt that the boat was unlikely to stop, but she didn't want to wait another half an hour, so she beckoned to the cruise ship with a fluke mentality.

This is not someone else's boat, it is Xiao Jiuzheng's luxury cruise ship. Xiao Jiuzheng, who has been staying in the cabin all the time, rarely gets some air in the cabin. He saw a civilian waving to stop the boat in the distance, because he was so far away that he couldn't see clearly. come.

"Is that man going to cross the river?" Xiao Jiuzheng asked the guards beside him.

"For the safety of the empress, let him wait for someone else's fishing boat." The guard commander who was in charge of Xiao Jiuzheng's safety said cautiously.

In normal times, Xiao Jiuzheng would probably feel that one thing more is worse than one thing less, but now when he thinks of the long-lost Chia Ya, who has just been set up in a tomb, Xiao Jiuzheng, who is in despair, doesn't regret his life so much.

"It's nothing serious, let's take him across the river." Xiao Jiuzheng felt that a little effort could be regarded as a little act of kindness, and it could also accumulate some merit for himself and for thousands of people.

"Your Majesty..." The guard still felt that it was not wise to let a person of unknown origin onto the boat.

"Go!" Xiao Jiuzheng said without anger.

The guard had no choice but to steer the boat towards the beckoning passer-by.

Qian Ya didn't give her hope at all, but she didn't expect that the boat was actually approaching her, instead she had a weird feeling, thinking that she might have met a kind-hearted person.

"What's the matter with you blocking the boat?" Xiao Jiuzheng's guard commander didn't immediately let Qianya board the boat, but shouted at Qianya across the river bank.

"I live in the opposite mountain, and I would like to ask the boatman to help me cross the river." Chia Ya replied.

"What is your name, what is your identity, please declare your household registration, and quickly lift the veil." The commander of the guards was cautious and had to wait for Chia Ya to report her household registration and lift her veil before allowing her to board the boat.

"I'm a hunter in the opposite mountain. My name is A Chou. Because I'm ugly, I use a veil to cover my face, so it's inconvenient to open it." Chia Ya didn't answer the question about household registration, because she didn't have a household registration at all. Seeing that the other party asked so much, Chia Ya gave up To cross the river by this river, she didn't want to show her ugly appearance to anyone.

When Xiao Jiuzheng was about to enter the cabin, she vaguely heard Chia Ya's voice, and she thought she was hallucinating, because she didn't know how many times she had hallucinated for Chia Ya, no matter how much she had been disappointed, Xiao Jiuzheng was still unwilling to give up Any glimmer of hope, so turned around again.

"Mother, people outside said that he was a hunter in the mountain on the other side, but he refused to register and covered his face. I thought it was a bit strange, so it was better not to put him on the boat." The commander of the guards reported to Xiao Jiuzheng.

"Didn't report your household registration?" This instead attracted Xiao Jiuzheng's attention, and Xiao Jiuzheng walked to the side of the boat.Because Chuan got close to the river bank, she could see clearly the people under the river bank. When the figure actually looked a bit like a Chia Ya men's clothing, Xiao Jiuzheng felt her heart constrict suddenly when thinking of the Chia Ya's voice that she vaguely heard just now. , The excited body trembled a little.She felt that no one could understand her current mood. After searching for so long, did she finally find it?The incomparable joy is mixed with trembling fear, as if it is just a fantasy born of my longing for too long.

On the bank of the river, Qianya saw the young woman on the bed, the figure of the weak willow Fufeng, she was the person she had been thinking about day and night, this unexpected encounter made Qianya feel at a loss, how could Xiao Jiuzheng be there here?The surprise of seeing Xiao Jiuzheng suddenly was quickly replaced by the panic that she was about to be recognized by Xiao Jiuzheng. She couldn't let Xiao Jiuzheng recognize her now, as if she was naked in public, and she couldn't hide her sense of inferiority and shame .

Xiao Jiuzheng greedily looked at the person standing by the river bank. Her face was covered with layers of gauze, but her pair of still beautiful eyes were exposed. It's Chia's eyes.

"Immediately, let her come up." Xiao Jiuzheng ordered to the commander of the guards.

The guard leader felt that this was not a wise decision, but the empress was firm and he had to obey the order.

"My master is kind-hearted and agrees to help you cross the river." The guard commander shouted to Qian Ya.

"Don't bother the master, I saw other fishing boats behind." Chia Ya saw a fishing boat coming from behind with sharp eyes, refused to get on the boat, and said in a hoarse voice on purpose, not wanting Xiao Jiuzheng to recognize herself.

As soon as Xiao Jiuzheng heard the voice, she knew that it was Chia Ya's deliberately pretended voice. She didn't want to recognize her by herself. Sure enough, Chia Ya had been hiding from herself all these years.

After Xiao Jiuzheng said a few words to the guards on the side, the guards immediately docked the boat, and the two guards walked towards Qianya from the boat.

"Master has invited you to board the boat." The guard reversed his previous attitude and bowed down to invite him very respectfully.

Looking at this posture, Qian Ya knew that these two people were Lianjiazi, and they should be first-class masters brought out from the palace by Xiao Jiuzheng. Even if she was herself, she could barely handle one.Under such circumstances, it was impossible to escape from here, and Chia had no choice but to board the boat. She only hoped that Xiao Jiuzheng did not recognize herself.

From the moment Xiao Jiuzheng recognized Chia Ya, his eyes never left Chia Ya.The delicate Xiao Jiuzheng immediately noticed that Chia Ya's walk seemed normal, but after a closer look, she knew that Chia Ya's legs and feet were still a little unnatural, but it was better than she expected.Seeing Chia Ya covered with a veil, and thinking of Chia Ya holding Ah Chou's name just now, she had a faint guess in her heart. This is probably why Chia Ya hid. Thinking of this, Xiao Jiucheng felt extremely distressed. It turned out that Xiao Yixuan was right Chia's face was poisoned.

"Your servant doesn't know how to treat guests. Please don't be offended if you have neglected your son." Xiao Jiuzheng restrained his surging heart, pretending to be calm and said politely to Chia Ya, since Chia Ya wanted to pretend not to know herself, Xiao Jiuzheng Achievement decided to go along with the flow and pretend not to recognize Chia Ya, because she knew Chia Ya too well.How could Chia Ya, who was so proud once, endure her current embarrassment? If Chia Ya was exposed, it would be tantamount to unraveling Chia Ya's scars, and letting Chia Ya's only self-esteem and pride hidden behind a strange identity, it would be impossible to hide. But, how could she be willing to let herself be forced to be elegant?

"It's not a guest, it's just a passer-by who borrows a boat to cross the river." Chia Ya saw that Xiao Jiuzheng said it politely, as if he didn't seem to recognize herself, but she thought to herself that she was completely different now, even she looked at herself sometimes. Feeling so strange, Xiao Jiuzheng didn't recognize himself and it was normal, but he was glad and a little bit disappointed in his heart.

"I feel like old friends at first sight, as if we've met before, somehow familiar." Xiao Jiuzheng looked at Chia Ya and said with a sigh.

Listening to these words, Chia Ya didn't know if Xiao Jiuzheng recognized her, or if she simply felt a little familiar, no matter what, but no matter what, she would never admit that she was Dugu Qianya.

"I'm just a hunter nearby, and I have never met my wife." Chia Ya said in a flat tone, as if she and Xiao Jiuzheng had never met each other.

"I also think that you are just a bit like my husband. If you are my husband, how can my husband not know me? Probably because I miss her too much. I have missed her day and night for the past three years. So when I see someone who looks like her, I feel an inexplicable sense of intimacy." Xiao Jiuzheng told Chia Ya the lovesickness of the past three years.

Listening to Xiao Jiuzheng's words, Qianya felt inexplicably sad. Why didn't she miss Xiao Jiuzheng? She also tried her best to restrain herself, so she couldn't help telling Xiao Jiuzheng that she was the one she loved and missed.But the self who has lost her beauty, is ugly, and even has bad legs, is she still the Dugu Qianya that Xiao Jiuzheng loves?Dugu Qianya is dead, she died three years ago, she is A Chou now, Qianya restrained her love for Xiao Jiuzheng, and forced herself to leave.

"We've reached the shore, thank you Madam for crossing the river." After finishing speaking, Chia Ya picked up the things she was already carrying on her back and prepared to disembark, but the things that were not considered heavy to Chia Ya were like a thousand catties at the moment, forcing herself to let go , It turned out to be more painful than ever.

Xiao Jiuzheng didn't expect that Chia Ya would not even want to stay for a moment longer, so she knew how deep Chia Ya's heart was, she finally found Chia Ya, how could she just watch Chia Ya disappear again?

Without thinking about it, she followed Chia Ya off the boat.

Chia Ya, who was suffering because of letting go of Xiao Jiuzheng, felt that Xiao Jiuzheng was following her, and suddenly became less uncomfortable. She obviously didn't want her to recognize her, but she still couldn't bear her, even if she stayed together for a moment, it would be fine.

"I've said it all, I don't know you, I've never met you, and I'm not like your husband, don't follow me anymore!" Chia Ya pretended to be annoyed and said fiercely.

"I know you're not her, but I just can't help wanting to follow you. I don't know why, but I just feel a little bit more at ease with you." Xiao Jiuzheng didn't care about Chia Ya's fierceness at all, and said in an unusually gentle tone. , Xiao Jiucheng felt happy.

Chia Ya walked into the mountain, Xiao Jiucheng followed, after Chia Ya couldn't get rid of Xiao Jiuzheng, she turned around angrily again.

"How long are you going to follow? You are a woman, and you have been following a man, how decent is it?" Qian Ya turned around again and asked angrily.

"I thought Ah Chou was also a woman." Xiao Jiuzheng unceremoniously revealed Chia's gender.

"It's a joke, isn't your husband a woman too?" Xiao Jiuzheng called herself A Chou so naturally, Chia felt it was harsh to hear it, and at the same time, she was a little uncertain about whether Xiao Jiuzheng recognized her.If you recognize it, why don't you expose it; if you don't recognize it, why do you always feel that every word is spoken to the Chiya yourself.

"My husband is a woman. Just now, an outsider called her my husband." Xiao Jiuzheng explained in a very gentle tone.
