A Queen

After walking for about ten minutes, Dai Li arrived at Han Xiuyun's home. In fact, she was standing in front of a room at this moment, a little dazed. Is this this kid's home?

If Han Xiuyun hadn't said it himself, she would have thought that what she saw was just a ruined temple that had been abandoned for a long time and was close to being abandoned.

However, she just paused and walked into the dark and dark room without hesitation. This made Han Xiuyun, who was a little embarrassed and was about to let Dai Li wait outside, extremely dumbfounded, but pursed his lips. He followed suit.

The house is very small, and there is no such thing as an inner hall. After walking a few steps, we came to the grid space behind the decayed Buddha statue. There were straw mats spread on it, which was slightly damp. There were some used daily necessities on the ground, and there were also structures. The ugly stove was covered with curtains.

She looked really shabby. Even those from ordinary families would feel sad when seeing such a scene, not to mention her background of having no worries about food and clothing.

As she walked in, her ears twitched slightly.

Breathing?

"My mother is inside. Master, please wait a moment..."

Dai Li nodded and watched Han Xiuyun lift the curtain. Only then did she see a woman nestled on a wooden bed in the corner of the wall.

Time and illness have tortured this woman, who was only in her thirties, like an old woman in her fifties or sixties. She looked extremely charming, but after Han Xiuyun shouted softly, her eyes still opened with difficulty, and they opened slightly. It seemed turbid, but there was a layer of joy and relief inside, as if he was happy that Han Xiuyun was back safely.

But that was all she could do, and then her expression became distorted, looking extremely painful, but she tried her best to suppress it, as if she didn't want to be seen by Han Xiuyun.

And this person is Han Xiuyun's mother, Yun Sanniang.

"Mom, mother, how are you...Is it still hurting?" Although Han Xiuyun seemed very calm, his trembling palms and slightly hazy eyes still made Dai Li feel the pain.

It is said that the hurt lies in the child's body, but the pain lies in the mother's heart. In fact, this situation sometimes happens in reverse. Considering Han Xiuyun's filial piety, it is not surprising.

"You go away, I'll do it!" Dai Li shook his head, walked forward, put his palm gently on his shoulder, and tapped his fingertips, as if he had a magical energy, Han Xiuyun calmed down a little, Back away a little.

Daili didn't care about the dirt anymore, he came forward and put his palm on Yun Sanniang's skinny hand,

Injecting some spiritual energy, he whispered: "Auntie, I am Xiu Yun's friend. I am here to help you. I am not a bad person. You can relax... I will help you heal..."

Maybe Yun Sanniang still has spiritual wisdom. When she heard these words, her body relaxed slightly and she whimpered. Dai Li said another soft and gentle word to calm her emotions while typing. She was so angry that it wasn't until Yun Sanniang was almost relaxed that she asked the woman to take the Yuyang Pill.

I drank some water to help the elixir enter my throat, and then used spiritual energy to help the elixir be absorbed.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Han Xiuyun saw some sweat seeping out of Dai Li's forehead, so he took out the green cloth square handkerchief in his arms and wiped it for her. Dai Li was startled, and turned to look at him. It was too late to refuse, and it seemed abrupt. Let him.

By the time the generation separation was over, two hours had passed.

It wasn't until it was over that Dai Li breathed a sigh of relief. Yun Sanniang's health was not good, and the years of illness had almost wiped out her foundation. It was not the efforts of women like Han Xiuyun that she could survive like this. It's because she has a strong desire to survive.

However, Dai Li thought about it again and again, and felt that Yun Sanniang would have more desire to die, for fear of dragging down her son.

But on the one hand, I couldn't bear to leave my son, and on the other hand, I was hung up for a breath, unable to live or die. It was really painful.

Han Xiuyun helped Yun Sanniang tidy up the quilt. Seeing her relaxed and smiling sleepy eyes, his eyes turned red. He wiped the corners of his eyes and then turned to look at Daili. At this moment, Daili was leaning on the wooden door in the backyard of the ruined temple, looking at Depressed scene outside.

It was already dusk, and the dim yellow light fell on her body. Her black hair was stained with smoke and dust, passing through her body, stretching out a heavy back, which seemed a little lonely and desolate.

Is this feeling suitable for this young master who is in the prime of life and lacks everything?

Han Xiuyun glanced away and walked behind Dai Li. Just when he was about to speak, he heard Dai Li say lightly: "Your mother needs to digest the power of Yuyang Pill, and she is in poor health. She cannot move it at will, otherwise she will be injured." Gen Gu, we can only wait until tomorrow..."

"Okay... Then I'll see you off young master now and go back early..." Han Xiuyun nodded and said that he was going to send Dai Li away.

Dai Li turned around and looked at him with a strange expression, half-smiling but not smiling: "And you take the initiative to send guests away like this?"

"Eh? Master, you..." Han Xiuyun was ashamed and embarrassed, and said hurriedly: "That's not what you meant. It's just that it's getting late now. Why don't you go back early?"

I'm afraid no one would dare to come and go to a place like this at night.

Dai Li tilted his head slightly, looked at the wooden door with his back, and said: "I would like to go back, but your mother has taken the elixir, and I don't know how effective it will be. If something happens, can you take care of her well?"

Han Xiuyun was startled when he heard this. After thinking for a moment, he shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "What you said makes sense, but is the young master used to living in this place?"

This kind of place?

Dai Li looked sideways at the slightly gloomy wasteland and curled his lips, "How do you know I'm not a person worse than a ghost?"

Viewed from the side, her pale face, red lips, and unreal beauty made her look extremely monstrous. However, Han Xiuyun looked at her for a while and then whispered: "Whether it's an evil ghost or something, Anyone who is kind to me is a good person."

Haha, Dai Li smiled, but did not look back. He just walked out of the yard and said: "I'll go get some game and come back. You prepare to live... I'm really a little hungry."

For a moment, Han Xiuyun could only respond in a low voice. After all, in his eyes, Dai Li was very powerful, and this wilderness was a bit scary. If it was really dangerous, she couldn't do anything about it, otherwise their mother and son would not be able to survive. Where can I survive till now?

————————————————————————

Late at night, under the moonlight, this land is so desolate that as soon as the night falls, the desolate wind howls, the grass rustles, and unknown wild dogs and other beasts roar something in the distance.

The door is blocked, and the cold wind blows in. Fortunately, it is spring. If it were winter, it would probably torture people to death.

The fire was warm, and some sparks were crackling in the bonfire. Dai Li and Han Xiuyun sat face to face on the big rock. Han Xiuyun was holding two branches in his hands, with two roasted chickens that were roasted tender yellow stuck on the top.

The aroma of meat overflowed, and the meat fat flowed down and fell into the fire, fueling the fire.

Han Xiuyun's craftsmanship is pretty good. After all, he is a poor child who has been struggling in a difficult line since he was a child. These basic skills are still necessary, and someone like Dai Li

He glanced at the black flesh skeleton discarded on the ground next to Daili, and couldn't help but curl his lips and smiled silently.

It can be seen that people in this world are not perfect.

However, when he was flipping the roasted chicken, he occasionally glanced at Dai Li secretly.

She was leaning against the wall, flipping through a book, and the sound of the pages being turned made a rustling sound, making her look very quiet and elegant...

"Perhaps this is the child of a wealthy family. He is well-read in poetry and books, gentle and elegant, has a calm temperament, and is intelligent and capable. It seems that nothing can trouble him. Unlike me, I have never even read a few books... .”

Han Xiuyun thought like this and looked at Daili with a little rapt attention.

"Are you sure you want to roast the last two chickens into charcoal? Follow me?" The idle voice was passed into his ears lightly. When he came to his senses, he realized that the roasted chickens had not been turned over for a long time. He was busy turning over the chickens. After a moment, he said awkwardly: "Sorry..."

Dai Li is noncommittal.

"What book are you reading?" Han Xiuyun asked cautiously.

Dai Li raised his head, frowned slightly, and said, "What I'm reading isn't a book... it's a picture."

Hey, picture? ! ! ! !

She flipped the cover of the book and showed it to him. Han Xiuyun only glanced at it, then his face turned red and his body trembled, and he could hardly hold the roast chicken in his hand.

"You, do you see this?"

Just because he doesn't read much doesn't mean he doesn't know it. There are clearly three big characters on it: **Naked*futon!

God!

Could he say he was scared?

Dai Li curled his lips in disapproval, "Look, I scared you. I bought this casually while shopping today. I heard it was a true portrayal of Huayuanting. Let's take a look to pass the time... But are you such a big reaction? You have to know in the future... what to pretend to be!"

Han Xiuyun was biting her lower lip and did not reply. She just lowered her head and roasted the chicken.

Read poetry and books?

Is he too naive?

Dai Li also found it funny to see this guy's innocent look, but she smiled, frowned, and suddenly asked: "Are there a lot of wild beasts in your area at night, such as wolves and so on? ?”

"Well, yes..." Han Xiuyun nodded and said awkwardly: "Master, do you think it's too noisy? This place is indeed not very nice..."

He also felt guilty. After all, he was a noble young master. If he had to help him, why would he commit himself to such a miserable place.

Dai Li shook his head and muttered in a low voice: "Too noisy? It's just because it's noisy. If it's not noisy at all, then it's a big problem."

When Dai Li said this, Han Xiuyun's expression changed slightly. It seemed that from just now, for almost half an hour, they had not heard the roar of any wild beasts, and it seemed that even the sound of the wind had disappeared... The silence is terrible,

When something goes wrong, there must be a demon. If it’s not a demon, could it be a ghost? ~~~

Just as they were thinking about this, a gust of wind slowly seeped through the crack in the door that could have let in the cold wind. It was gloomy and had a black and gray air, which made the two of them suddenly feel chills running down their spines.

Silently, Dai Li saw the grassy wasteland through the crack in the door. At this moment, the moonlight was not as clear and cold as before, but revealed a darkness, ambiguity, and full of haze.

And in her sight, there seemed to be a row of dark things among the swaying grass.

I don’t know what they are, they are moving forward slowly, but what’s extremely weird is... their movements don’t have the feeling of staggered movements of human footsteps, but instead look like...
