C276 (1/2)
After a month, my body finally recovered and I was able to get out of bed with difficulty. However, after experiencing the torment from the underworld, my mental state has already deteriorated. I could no longer jump up and down among the trees of Hairpin Moon as I had when I was a child, or sneak into the kitchen to steal food with Liuxia, but now I had to move my body slowly, like an old man at the end of his tether, tired from walking a few steps, and often lean against the window in a daze.
It wasn't that there was something wrong with my body, but that something was wrong with my mind.
Master comforted me. I'm afraid that I won't be able to recover in a short period of time. I can only slowly nurture him. He will definitely think of a way for me in the future.
Does he still care about me? Perhaps all of his thoughts were on his beloved junior sister?
I heard that the Dark God had specially built a barrier in the Underworld to repair the souls of Wu Yue and Qing Qiu, and Xuan Yue had placed a wisp of Wu Yue's lonely soul inside. He would nurture it with his own care every day, and if all went well, perhaps in a few hundred years, he would see the moon come back to life. Therefore, Xuan Yue has to go to the Underworld everyday, how could he still care about me?
Liuxia, on the other hand, felt very sorry for me.
Ever since he was carried back to the Palace by his master, the copper sparrow had been here seven times. The previous few times, it was stopped by Liuxia. Liuxia was my best friend. After finding out that I was tricked into the Underworld to have my soul cleansed, although he was quite resentful towards his master's actions, he didn't dare to resist his beloved Star Lord. Thus, he shifted all his anger onto Copper Bird.
”If only you hadn't come with me to the Underworld!” That's what he used to tell me.
I knew he was looking at me, wanting to feel sorry for me, but I didn't even have the strength to thank him. I was very weak, always feeling tired, most of the time can only lean on the bed in a daze, to Liuxia's sympathy can only be forced to smile bitterly.
That day, the bronze sparrow came to see me again.
”I'll get rid of her!” Liuxia said as she watched me finish the medicine.
I thought about it and shook my head. ”Forget it. I'll just meet her.”
Liuxia looked at me gloomily and said helplessly, ”I really can't stand you. It's up to you! ”
I invited Fairy Copper Sparrow to meet me at the Flower Viewing Pavilion in the Moon Flower Forest. Fairy Copper Sparrow had arrived early as promised, but I was a bit late. I didn't mean to. I overestimated my physical condition. It was originally a short journey, but I walked it in the time it took to make a cup of tea.
”White!” You... Are you all right? ” The copperbird was delighted to see me, but there was still a lot of worry on its face, and its eyes flickered with guilt.
Is she blaming herself? Actually, it wasn't her fault at all.
I sighed and moved to the table to sit down.
”What?” The Bronze Sparrow looked at me in surprise, as if she was not used to my words. She restrained herself for a moment, but in the end she couldn't help it. You even know how to use adjective! ”
I smiled wryly, ”Being soulless is not an adjective. I have never been a literary or artistic youth. You know …”
The bronze sparrow's mouth twitched, and her expression suddenly changed, ”Liuxia is telling the truth?!” You really have your soul cleansed?! ”
Yeah, I was brainwashed.
I am not a literary young man, so the word ”lost” is not an adjective, but my tragic reality, and I am now an unwitting, tragic young man.
”I'm sorry!” The look in the bird's eyes became even more remorseful.
