"Even if there are thousands of people in front of me, I will go if I want to."
Ning Que muttered to himself.
This was a sentence that Second Brother once told him about Youngest Uncle. When he heard this sentence, he was overwhelmed with emotions and felt hot all over. However, it seemed that he had to face such a situation now. Only then did he realize that it was not so simple.
Sangsang was warming her feet with hot water. When she heard this sentence, she was slightly startled and said, "How heroic."
Ning Que sat on the small stool in front of the basin and lowered his head to rub her feet. He said with a smile, "When the enemy invades and the evil forces are rampant, you will be a hero no matter how you kill. Only a hero can be called a hero. But now we are the villains, the legendary devils. If we kill thousands of people with a sword, it is called killing the innocent. It is cruel and evil. It has nothing to do with being a hero."
Sangsang's little feet were still so white, like a white lotus in the wooden basin. She looked at Ning Que who kept rubbing her feet and asked, "Is it important to be a hero?"
Ning Que took off the towel from his shoulder and lifted her feet out of the basin. He dried them carefully and put them on his knees. He rubbed them again and put on thick cotton socks for her. He said, "You know me. As long as I can survive, I don't mind killing people. But it is better if I can be cool when I kill people."
Sangsang tightened the laces of the socks, turned from the chair to the bed, lifted the thick quilt and got in. Only her little face was exposed. She stared at Ning Que and asked confusedly, "What do you mean by cool?"
Ning Que looked at the water in the basin which was still warm. He took off his shoes and put his feet in. He answered casually, "It means being handsome with no expression."
Sangsang asked confusedly, "How can I be handsome with no expression?"
Ning Que said, "Haven't you seen Second Brother's dead face?"
Sangsang seemed to understand and said, "Mr. Second is really handsome … But I still don't understand why it is called cool. Besides, we are all killing people. Why do we care about being handsome?"
"You have never heard of such words as cold, arrogant, and arrogant. Naturally, you don't understand the truth. Not to mention killing people, even if you want to take a bath or go to the toilet, you can be extremely handsome."
Ning Que said with a smile. He got up and went outside to pour out the water for washing his feet. When he walked back to his room, he suddenly remembered something. He rummaged through his luggage for a long time and took out a wooden box. In the box were two pairs of glasses made of ink.
He took out one and put it on the bridge of his nose. Then, he walked to the bed and looked at Sangsang expressionlessly like Second Brother. "Is it cool?"
Sangsang looked at him and couldn't help but laugh. Then, she thought of something and looked at the hair in front of her, frowning slightly. In autumn, her hair was cut short by Ning Que. It looked refreshing, but it was difficult to tie her black hair after it was cut short. She tried several times with a hairpin, but failed to stop her hair from flying in front of her eyes.
She puckered her lips and blew her hair away from her eyes. Suddenly, she asked absentmindedly, "Did Mr. Six make this thing on your face and that pair of glasses together?"
She might be pouting because she was drying her hair, or she might be expressing some kind of dissatisfaction and acting coquettishly. Ning Que was startled. He took off his glasses and said, "How would I remember that?"
Sangsang said, "You have been hiding the glasses in your luggage. How could you not remember that?"
Ning Que said, "When we were about to leave the Lanke Temple, you were the one who took the glasses out of your luggage and threw them to her."
Sangsang pulled the quilt higher to cover her chin, which had become thinner because of her illness. She didn't want to look too mean, but she pretended to be wronged and said, "You put the glasses in your luggage because you thought that you might meet Miss Shanshan in the Lanke Temple. So you planned to give them to her when you met her."
Recently, Sangsang occasionally got jealous and lost her temper. With Ning Que's temperament in the past, he would have long lost control. But now, no matter how angry Sangsang was, he just smiled.
Because he thought that Sangsang was very cute.
Sangsang's short hair was refreshing and cute. Her two white front teeth were silly and cute. She was charming and cute when she pretended to be angry. She was cute when she frowned when she slept. She was cute when she held two long chopsticks when she ate. No matter what she did or didn't do, she was still cute.
Ning Que was in a very good mood. He reached out and messed up her short hair. He shouted, "My Sangsang can't be so cute. Tell me, which cave did you come from?"
"I am the daughter of Yama. I am a witch."
Sangsang grabbed the edge of the quilt with both hands and opened her eyes wide. She looked at him seriously, but she couldn't help giggling. She looked extremely cute.
A crow's unpleasant caw came from outside the window.
Ning Que patted her slightly cold face and said gently, "I'll go out and have a look. You go to sleep first."
Sangsang said, "Be careful."
Ning Que nodded and pushed the door into the small courtyard. It was already dusk. The sun was slowly setting in the west. The red light shone into Chaoyang City and the thick clouds in the sky, giving it a strange red color.
He looked up at the thick clouds burning like a sea of fire above his head. He shook his head and left.
Sangsang put on a fur coat and climbed out of the quilt. She walked to the window and skillfully prepared to block the light. Suddenly, she saw the burning clouds in the sky. Her little hand that was pulling the curtain paused.
Ning Que didn't know what those clouds represented. He only knew that they were related to her. She didn't know what those clouds represented either. But she knew that they might mean her departure or even death.
Just as the previous joke said, Sangsang couldn't be so cute.
Sangsang just wanted to show her cutest side in the last days before her death. She hoped that she could leave Ning Que some good memories instead of sad ones.
…
…
The whole world was their enemy.
Ning Que knew that if he and Sangsang were hiding in Chang 'an, they would have been found and killed by the Tang Empire. Fortunately, they were hiding in Chaoyang City.
The government of the Yuelun Kingdom was extremely inefficient. Although the people who were devout to Buddhism feared and hated the Daughter of Yama, none of them would get rid of their lazy nature to help the Buddhism Sect and the government in their search.
It was because of these reasons that he and Sangsang could hide in this city for an entire winter. But now that he was alarmed, it was time to leave.
Ning Que didn't go out of the city, although he wanted to confirm whether the big black horse and the carriage were safe.
He went directly to a garden behind the Imperial Palace and walked along the walls of the White Tower Temple to the side door of the Imperial Palace. He hid his body in the darkness and silently observed and listened for a long time, making the final additions to his plan.
Then he walked around the streets and alleys of Chaoyang City. He held the broken big black umbrella tightly wrapped in an old cloth in his hand to confirm the direction of the aura of the powerhouses.

(I've recently used Sogou Wubi and changed a certain setting. So I often make mistakes between "go", "cloud" and "zhi". I'm ashamed to report to you. This is the first chapter of today. There are four chapters of 12,000 words in total. The second chapter will be finished before 11: 50. If I still have the strength after finishing the four chapters, I will revise the last chapter yesterday and try to be more detailed in the future.) (To be continued.
