Chapter 50: My life is not a life?
I feel like my world has gone completely dark. Although I am still alive, I am already dead inside. If I had been nicer to Yun Hance since he was a child, if I had obeyed my parents' arrangements in my previous life, if I could have been sober for a moment when I had a fever, if I could have known his thoughts earlier, would we have been together in our previous life, and would we have had fewer regrets?
If I had learned some martial arts from my brother when I was young, could I have died with Yun Hance at this moment?
The more I thought about it, the sadder I became. If I hadn't married Xiao Jue in my previous life, Yun Hance wouldn't have had to hurt himself to save me, and he wouldn't have had to come to this damn place.
Tears slowly burst out, I was as weak as a wounded kitten, curled up into a ball, and my mind suddenly went back to my childhood, when Yun Hance was not so vicious and cold, and I was still a little girl.
Yun Hance, who had been extremely delicate since childhood, smiled unconsciously when he saw me playing hide-and-seek with the little girls. I hugged Yun Qingchi, who was making trouble, and Yun Hance's little face immediately turned dark.
I touched Yun Qingchi's little face and immediately said with a smile: "Yun Hance, what are you doing here?"
I pulled down the handkerchief covering my eyes in joy, and the child standing in front of me winked at me: "It's me."
I was still very happy. Yun Qingchi pinched my chubby face and said, "It seems that Ranran only cares about my second brother!"
Little Yun Hance stood under the peach tree. It was the time when peach flowers were blooming and falling. The petals floated down in front of his forehead. His face turned slightly red because of Yun Qingchi's words, but the corners of his mouth were rising more and more.
"How could that be? You look too much like Yun Hance, it's normal for me to make a mistake."
Yun Qingchi obviously didn't believe it, and the girls next to them certainly didn't care too much. We were all young at that time, and we just thought that Yun Hance was a very outstanding and handsome little brother.
Yun Qingchi stopped exploring and soon joined us in playing.
"Strange, he's still breathing faintly? He's not dead yet? Good... good!"
My dead heart suddenly came back to life. He said Yun Hance is not dead? I lay on the ground, weakly trying to take a look at Yun Hance, but the old man pulled him in front of me and said, "Little girl, he is not dead yet. Do you still want to save him?"
I lay on the ground, looking up. Yun Hance's lifeless face looked no different from a dead person, and his hair was wet and water was dripping. I knew that if I asked him to save Yun Hance, he would definitely make the same rude request again, but at this moment, I had no other choice and no time to make a choice.
"Save him, I can promise you anything..."
The old man squatted down, his tattered clothes, gray hair and beard, and bloody face were so close to me, and suddenly I was not so scared anymore.
"If you want the old man to save him, you have to marry him and take care of him until the end of his life!"
Accompanying him was unbearable, and marrying him was unbearable. I endured it again and again, and decided to endure it: "I promise you!"
The old senior was satisfied with my acupuncture points. My strength gradually recovered. He held Yun Hance in one hand and walked in front: "Follow me!"
I got up and followed him. As soon as I entered the cave, the stone door slammed shut.
The old man walked into a stone cave after many twists and turns. The stone door opened. The old man placed Yun Hance on the stone table and pointed to a carved cabinet: "There are clean clothes in there. Find some and change them yourself. Are you ready to come out?"
I nodded, and the old man walked out. The stone door then closed again. I went to look in the cupboard and found several very beautiful clothes. Not only were they beautiful, but the fabrics were also very good. I suddenly realized that perhaps this old man was not ordinary. These clothes were simply not affordable for ordinary people. Moreover, although these clothes were beautiful and made of very good fabrics, the patterns were no longer new. Since these clothes did not get moldy when placed in such a cold and humid place, it was obvious that the material was definitely of top quality.
I looked at the cabinet carefully. It looked ordinary, but I leaned closer and smelled it, and it actually had a scent of Qilingxiang. Qilingxiang is a rare treasure, and only the dignitaries in the capital can afford it. This wood has a scent of Qilingxiang. It is obvious that this box is made of Qiling wood, which is the most waterproof and moisture-proof.
This old man said that he was betrayed and imprisoned here for more than ten years. Is there anyone among the powerful people in the court who meets the requirements? I thought about it for a long time. In my previous life, I was an unpopular concubine in the East Palace. I had no chance to get close to the powerful. In this life, I have not even started to get close to the powerful.
I thought about it for a while but couldn't figure it out, so I found some clothes for Yun Hance to change into. There were only women's clothes in his closet, so after thinking about it, I could only pick out a simple outfit for him to change into, hoping that his body temperature would slowly return.
I know this is just wishful thinking, but since the old senior was able to save him, I should take good care of him.
His body was ice cold, like a dead person. I put my hand on his heart, but there was no beating for a long time. I put my finger on the tip of his nose, but there was still no breath. I suspected that the old man was lying to me, but I had no choice. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, I would save him.
I changed my clothes and went out. The old man was sitting on the stone bench outside waiting for me. When he saw me wearing a light yellow dress, he was immediately stunned. I walked over silently. Perhaps this dress was worn by someone he once liked and cared about very much, so he looked like this at this moment.
He suddenly glared at me: "Ayao, you are so cruel, why do you treat me like this? I know about that incident, I don't mind it at all, why do you still treat me like this?"
A Yao? I seem to have heard this name before, but I can't remember when. He suddenly wanted to grab me like crazy, and shouted loudly: "Why? I clearly know that Lin Zhi is not my child. I don't intend to blame you or tell anyone. Why do you treat me like this?"
I turned around and tried to run, but he grabbed me and threw me against the wall, where I rolled down. I felt a sharp pain all over my body, as if my internal organs had shifted out of place and my bones were broken. He covered his head and said frantically, "Ayao, I didn't mean it."
I tried to crawl forward, but he grabbed my shoulder and said, "Ayao, I'm sorry, can you forgive me? Please forgive me. I only questioned you because I was shocked by the truth. I didn't intend to let you be looked down upon by the world."
In order to calm him down, I could only pretend to be the A Yao in his mouth: "I don't blame you, just let me go first!"
As expected, the old man's whole body froze, and he let me go immediately. I endured the pain and tried to stand up, but I was powerless. The old man stared at me on the ground again, and suddenly his eyes became clear again: "You are not A Yao, you are not A Yao, you lied to me, I will kill you!"
Oh my god, I can't stand it anymore. Why are there so many crazy people everywhere? Are there any normal people here? Why do I have to deal with crazy people every time, and they always want to kill me? My life is not a life?
