"Do you like it?" Li Muyang asked aloud.
"I like it." Song Chenxi gently touched the surface of the paper with her fingertips. The girl in the painting was lifelike, like a living person.
Slender eyebrows, clear eyes, lips that gently curled up when she smiled, and that slightly sickly expression that gave people a sense of playfulness …
It was another Song Chenxi.
"This is for you." Li Muyang said with a smile.
"Thank you." Song Chenxi beamed from ear to ear, smiling happily. "I will keep it well. As long as I live, I will watch it every day. It's — — "
Li Muyang interrupted her words. "It doesn't matter. You can live. You will live well. But don't live too long, about the age of your grandfather now. When a girl gets older, she will age very quickly. "
"Good." Song Chenxi nodded again. "I'll listen to you. I will work hard. "
Li Muyang glanced at Li Shinian and said, "I still have things to do, I won't disturb Miss Song's rest. Let's meet again. "
"Ah, so fast? I haven't invited you for a cup of tea. "Song Chenxi said.
"It's okay, next time I visit, I will definitely taste the good tea of the Song residence."
"I'll let Little Star send you." Song Chenxi said.
"Thank you, Miss Little Star."
With that, Li Muyang walked out of the courtyard with Li Shinian.
Thinking that Li Muyang would be sparring with the old immortal Shisui in a few days, the odds were against him. The day to see him again would most likely be gone.
She was so upset that she couldn't help but shout out, "Li Muyang — —"
Li Muyang stopped, turned to look at Song Chenxi, and said, "Is there anything else Miss Song?"
"You can call me Chenxi."
Li Muyang was taken aback for a moment before he smiled and called out, "Chenxi."
The corners of Song Chenxi's mouth curved up. "I said, if you help me paint, I will give you a gift."
"No need."
"No, there must be." Song Chenxi's voice was soft but incomparably firm. "However, the gift will only be given to you when you return victorious."
She clenched her small fist and said, "So, please come back safely."
Li Muyang couldn't help laughing and said, "Good. I will come back safely. Even if I can't return safely, I will definitely think of a way to escape safely. "
"I believe you. We will definitely return victorious. "Song Chenxi said.
After saying goodbye to the charming Miss Song, Li Muyang and Li Shinian walk side by side on the street.
Although there was a carriage behind them, the two of them were not in the mood to ride it. They all wanted to take a good walk on the familiar yet strange streets of Tiandu City.
Kacha Kacha …
Their boots stepped on the snow, producing a clear and melodious sound.
Li Muyang walked cheerfully while looking at the scenery on both sides of the street. "I have been in this city for a long time, but I am still completely unfamiliar with it."
"This is a city without a sense of belonging." Li Muyang said softly. "Every day there is Xiaoxin City, as if everyone in this city will suddenly jump out and bite you. You have no sense of security and no sense of belonging. "
"Yes." Li Shinian sighed softly. "Brother, I have never been so tired. I never thought that I would experience what I am experiencing now. I just want to live safely and happily in Jiangnan. That's our home. That's where we're from. I like Jiangnan, I don't like Tiandu. "
"It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have suffered so much and encountered so many dangers. When we were still in Jiangnan, you were the happiest and freest. Everyone liked you and everyone knew that you had a bright future. But because of my influence, you came to the unfamiliar Tiandu and endured everything as my family, as my sister … You are still so young, just a child. It has been hard on you. "
"Brother …"
Li Muyang held his sister's cold little hand and said firmly: "One day, we will return to Jiangnan. I will take you back to Jiangnan, and we will live happily as a family in Jiangnan. It is best to live in the old house and live the same life as before. "
"Okay." Li Shinian nodded seriously and said: "Brother, I believe in you. I believe that you can defeat that old monster. I believe that you can take us back to Jiangnan safely."
In comparison, there was a silent tacit understanding between the brother and sister.
Li Shinian reached out to brush off the snowflakes on Li Muyang's shoulder and said softly: "Brother, you were often sick when you were young. Although I am your sister, I am more like your sister."
"Yes." Li Muyang said with a smile: "Shinian sister."
"At that time I thought you were too pitiful, and you would fall ill so easily, as if … you could leave us at any time. At that time I made up my mind that I would take care of you and protect you. I wanted you to be well, and no one was allowed to bully you. "
"Yes. You did it. "Li Muyang nodded." You have always done so. "
"I thought I would protect you for a lifetime, take care of you for a lifetime. At that time I felt that it was a heavy burden. How difficult is it to bear the life of another person? "Li Shinian said with a smile.
Li Muyang didn't speak, just quietly walked beside Li Shinian.
They hadn't talked to each other like this for a long time.
He knew that his sister was still worried about his safety, worried about the battle between him and the old guy.
Although everyone wanted him to win, and everyone pretended to be indifferent on the surface as' we are not worried at all, you will win anyway ', but in their hearts … they were really anxious.
He was like a patient suffering from a serious illness, and only had a few days to live. When Mu Dingyi, the old King of Hell, raised his sword, his life would end.
"What I didn't expect was that you suddenly seemed to be enlightened. You became more and more intelligent, and more and more beautiful. The things you do are all spectacular, and the people you come into contact with are all famous people. These are things I have never thought of before, and I will never think of them. I am proud of my brother, proud, but also very worried. "
"I know you're very tired from walking. You're much, much more tired than others. And it is too dangerous, every step is like walking on thin ice, every day is like a year. Brother, you are getting farther and farther away from me, and the gap between us is getting bigger and bigger. I can no longer take care of you and protect you. I can only watch you go further and further, and it is getting harder and harder. "
"Brother, I don't want you to work so hard. I want you to be happy. When everyone said that you died in the illusion, I even thought to myself that it would be good if you were still the fool from back then. In that case, I would bear everything for you … "
Li Muyang abruptly turned around, tightly hugging his sister who was just inches away from him.
It was as if he was embracing another life.
※ ※ ※
Li Muyang stood in front of the window sill, and a woman in black suddenly appeared at the window.
"Have you really decided to do this?" The woman in black said aloud.
"Yes." Li Muyang nodded. "I'm sure."
"If you do this … they will be very sad."
"I know. If I don't do this, my heart will be even more sad. "Li Muyang said with a smile. He reached out to the woman in black and said, "Hong Xiu, give it to me."
The woman in black took out a small bottle from her arms and threw it over, saying, "Take care of yourself."
"Thank you." Li Muyang took the bottle and said with a smile.
"Thank me for what?" The woman in black's face was covered with a veil, so her real face and facial expression could not be seen clearly. "I don't want to have anything to do with this matter."
"I understand." Li Muyang nodded. "Thank you for helping me this time, and thank you for helping me last time."
"That's what I should do." Hong Xiu said. "I promised you to keep your secret. It's just … are you going to hide it even from Grandfather Lu? Also, what is the origin of your Snowball? Why does it have such a powerful attack? "
"I don't want to lie to you, but I can't tell you." Li Muyang said with a troubled look. "You'll know later. Give me some more time, okay? "
"As you wish." Hong Xiu flicked her sleeves, and then her body floated away.
Bang …
The door of the room was slammed open by someone.
Li Shinian stood at the door and said with a smile, "Brother, mother wants you to eat quickly."
"Okay. I'll go. "Li Muyang promised with a smile and held the small black porcelain bottle in his arms.
After going downstairs, his mother, Luo Chi, was busy in the kitchen. She said to Li Muyang, "I made chicken soup. You guys have a bowl of soup first."
"Okay." Li Muyang promised with a smile and said to Li Shinian, "Go and wash the dishes."
"Why don't you go?" Although Li Shinian looked wronged, she still ran over to help clean up the dishes.
While they were not paying attention, Li Muyang quickly poured the powder in the porcelain bottle into the bowl of chicken soup.
Li Shinian brought over the bowls and chopsticks. Li Muyang personally filled three bowls, one for his mother, one for Luo Chi, one for Li Shinian and one for himself.
"Everyone, drink the soup." Li Muyang said with a smile.
"That's more like it." Li Shinian held the bowl of soup and drank a mouthful.
"Muyang, you drink too." Luo Chi said with a doting look on her face, holding the bowl of soup and drinking a mouthful.
"I'll drink too." Li Muyang said with a smile.
Plop!
As soon as his voice faded, Luo Chi and Li Shinian's body had already collapsed onto the table.
