Some small sounds came to his ears, and Xiao Rong slowly opened his eyes. His mind was groggy, as if he had had a long dream. However, no matter how hard he tried to recall, the content of the dream was what it was. I can’t remember clearly either.
The wind and sand were still there, but they were much smaller than before. Where Xiao Rong was, there was almost no wind and sand blowing, but the howling of wind and sand and some whispering sounds could be heard from time to time, which was frightening.
She wanted to sit up, but as soon as she moved, her whole body felt sore as if someone had pinched it with a grappling hand. Fortunately, the pain was bearable. He endured the pain and sat up with difficulty. , the first thing he saw was Qiu Ying sitting next to him. Qiu Ying's back was turned to him. It seemed that this mysterious one-eyed boy didn't notice that he had woken up at all.
Of course Qiu Ying had noticed Xiao Rong waking up a long time ago, but he was really a little annoyed now. What he was annoyed about was not others, but himself. Qiu Ying had always been very confident about his own eyesight, but for Xiao Rong The process of Rong's treatment surprised him.
"You are a woman."
Qiu Ying's voice was obviously a little weak. After all, he had just seen Xiao Rong's body. Although all this was done to save her life, Qiu Ying obviously still felt very ashamed. He had never been a gentleman. But I have always taken matters of etiquette very seriously.
In particular, it is the rule that men and women should not be intimate.
After hearing this, Xiao Rong felt her chest rise and fall. She looked down at the disappearing band on her chest and actually just smiled and said:
"I never said I was a man."
This kind of excuse is actually very pale. The corseting of a woman's chest is the best evidence that she is disguised as a man.
"Gusu Yirong."
Without any warning, Xiao Rong suddenly said these four words. Her voice was calm, and she didn't seem to care at all whether her body was exposed.
She said:
"This is my real name. Since you saved me, I can tell you as compensation."
Qiu Ying was a little embarrassed by Xiao Rong's calmness, so he turned his head pretending to be relaxed.
Turning his head, he immediately met Xiao Rong's smart eyes. As soon as they met, Qiu Ying felt almost suffocated. At this moment, his psychological defense was about to collapse.
Those eyes were so bright and vivid, and they also carried an indescribable sadness, like the spring rain caressing the countryside, inadvertently knocking away a young bud, beautiful, but defective.
The element of imperfection occupies neither too much nor too little, neither thick nor light. It just fills up the point where people have poetic feelings, so the beauty changes from imperfect perfection to just the right poignancy and poignancy. To impregnate one’s soul.
However, this is not all. These eyes are not just pure and static beauty. The rhyming eye waves are flowing in them, and the light spots in the pupils seem to be given life, jumping and playing happily. , lyrically, it seems that as long as you listen carefully, you can hear the singing coming from inside.
The singing voice, flowing and light, can make the listeners close their eyes, but its poignant beauty and poetic charm make the viewers unable to bear to close their eyes.
Flowers of two lives cannot be had at the same time, and one cannot be given up even if one is abandoned.
This pair of eyes is enough to enjoy the scenery for a lifetime.
Qiu Ying was completely stunned. Seeing those eyes at such a close distance, he felt that the projection in those eyes was his real self. His whole body had been immersed in her eyes, intoxicated and unwilling. leave.
After a long time, Qiu Ying came back to his senses. He tried his best to avoid Xiao Rong's face. Her face was always dirty and her appearance was not visible. However, Qiu Ying still did not dare to look at it. He was afraid that he would not be able to control it. After all, she had those eyes.
Qiu Ying's heart was beating very fast, but he seemed very calm on the surface. He continued to turn his back to Xiao Rong, and finally asked the question he had always wanted to ask.
"You are not actually a beggar, are you?"
"When did you find out?"
Qiu Ying calmly adjusted his breathing, and his heartbeat gradually slowed down. He eloquently said:
"From the first time I saw you, the time you came out was too coincidental, but the most important reason is not this, but I am almost certain that there should never be beggars in a place like the Ghostly Dead Sea. "
Qiu Ying looked at the boundless desert in front of him. The desert was connected to the sky, and the sky was connected to the desert. It was impossible to see the slightest hope. In such a place, as long as a person with a normal mind does not have enough power to resist the environment, Those with financial resources would never choose to live in such a place, and it was even more impossible for a beggar to do so.
Qiu Ying relaxed a lot and continued:
"And I'm even more sure now, because the name Gusu Yirong is definitely not what a beggar should have. Who are you? In fact, the Tang Sect and that white-headed boy's gang, their real purpose is you. Bar."
This question was obviously a bit aggressive. However, when Xiao Rong stood in front of Qiu Ying, his style suddenly changed. Qiu Ying stared blankly at Xiao Rong in front of him, as if his backbone had been taken away, and he was instantly In the passive position, his heartbeat began to beat rapidly again.
Xiaorong didn't care at all. She was as calm as water and said slowly:
"Your observation skills are very keen, and your strength is also very good. In this case, I will let you be my bodyguard."
"bodyguard?"
Qiu Ying felt a little baffled, but he couldn't get angry. It seemed that after knowing that Xiao Rong was a girl, he could no longer be angry with her. Of course, only he knew in his heart what this was for.
"Why should I..."
Qiu Ying's voice was obviously trembling, so Xiao Rong easily interrupted him and continued:
"I've always been fair. You just saved me, so I told you my real name, but you should have seen my body, so I ask you to protect me. It's not too much."
What Xiao Rong was talking about seemed to be about trivial matters, but when she spoke, her eyes full of emotion looked at Qiu Ying as if she were looking at a lover, making people fascinated and as if they were infatuated. After Ruzui finished speaking, she turned around and walked forward, never looking at Qiu Ying again.
"Hey, where are you going?"
When Qiu Ying came to his senses, Xiao Rong had already walked far away. He called her, and she turned around and said:
"If you don't want to, you don't have to ask me where I'm going. You must know very well that I don't have any ability, so I can't force you."
When she spoke, the expression on her face was still very calm. It seemed that she never showed emotions on her face. Her emotions were all in her eyes.
"Okay, I promise you."
Qiu Ying was firm when he said this. He had already made his decision, or in other words, he had lost the courage to refuse.
Xiao Rong's expression was still calm, but her eyes clearly showed some relief. She knew that she had succeeded once again.
Gui Gu and Xiao Rong stood side by side in the wind and sand. They looked at the monotonous desert consisting of nothing but sand and soil, but the emotions in their eyes were complicated and difficult to distinguish.
Xiaorong sighed softly. She looked at Qiu Ying with her eyes and said:
"Actually, it's a bit selfish for me to ask you to follow me, but I have my reasons. I need the protection of others. Although I don't know your situation, you must have your purpose in coming to this ghostly dead sea. You follow me, Maybe it won't achieve your goal, but I assure you, you can definitely know more.
And if you want, I can still..."
Before Xiaorong finished speaking, she was about to rush towards Qiu Ying. Her eyes were still so full of emotion that it almost made Qiu Ying out of his body. But Qiu Ying soon realized something was wrong. He immediately took a step back and stretched out his hand. Blocked Xiaorong.
His heart was almost beating out of his chest and his hands were sweating, but the words he spoke were unusually calm and firm.
"Since I promised you, I will fulfill my promise. During this period, you don't need to comfort me, you don't need to have unnecessary doubts about me, and you don't need to do unnecessary things. You must know that it is easy for me to kill you. "
Xiao Rong raised the corners of his mouth very briefly, and quickly retracted his sleeves to reveal a small part of the weird weapon.
She had obviously understood Qiu Ying's words, but she remained calm, and there was not even the slightest bit of unnaturalness in her eyes, as if nothing had happened.
"You are indeed very extraordinary. As a reward, I will give you an extra benefit."
"What benefits?"
When Qiu Ying finished speaking, Xiao Rong's expression suddenly changed. Her face gradually relaxed and her lips slowly raised. She put her hand into her mouth and took out a long and slender needle. Qiu Ying Of course, I know what this needle is used for. If this needle is inserted in the right place, it can change a person's voice. This is of course also a necessary measure for a woman to disguise herself as a man.
This move has aroused Qiu Ying's interest. He is really curious. Xiao Rong's voice before was very juvenile. It can be said that he could not distinguish between male and female at all. I wonder what her original voice was like?
Xiaorong put away the needle and walked forward gracefully. Her clothes were dirty and even a little shabby, but her walking figure and pace were like that of a well-educated lady, and she was not disrespectful of etiquette. , and generous, after walking for more than ten steps, she turned her head, with a smile on her face, and said to Qiu Ying:
"From now on, please call me Rongrong."
Her face was stained with sand and dirt, and her dirty face didn't look very pretty even if she smiled.
But just when she turned her head and said this to Qiu Ying with a smile, just when Qiu Ying heard her voice coming slowly, he felt that the wind and sand around him suddenly disappeared. The voice became very slow, so slow that he could hear every word and every pause clearly.
He seemed to see the dazzling sunshine all over the world, beautiful flowers blooming in the sunshine, and colorful butterflies flying among the flowers. These pictures were frozen in front of his eyes and in his heart.
This should be the oasis in the desert that people are looking for.
In fact, the voice is nothing special, it's just purely beautiful, and the smile is nothing special, it's just purely beautiful.
Rongrong, prosperous and prosperous, it is indeed a very good welfare.
