Chapter 450: The Bereaved Dog
Listening to Yaoyao’s simple question, Xuanyi’s face stiffened slightly.
Xuanyi himself was confused by the question.
Who am I.
Of course I am Xuan Yi, a young pharmacist who travels around the world with superb medical skills but weird behavior.
But before Xuanyi, the confused young man who rescued Yaoyao from the crossroads on a snowy night was also me. Although I had the ability to conquer the world, I always felt that there was no place for me in this world. Land guy.
I am still walking in Star City, the person whose words were respected by everyone, but step by step I am heading towards the path of self-destruction without hesitation.
I was also that lonely and desperate young man who walked endlessly on the path I chose in order not to kill my sister, even if I couldn't see any hope in front of me.
What about further forward?
Who will I be if I go forward?
In other words, when the Star Master took him away from his real parents, what was his identity?
He has no memory of that time, and Xuanji has never told himself.
After all, there must have been no room for him among his former parents.
Xuanyi didn't know how to answer.
Yaoyao is now the person closest to him in this world. They eat and sleep together, like brothers and sisters, like master and servant. He has never deliberately hidden all his secrets from Yaoyao, and has also taught Yaoyao a whole set of cultivation techniques. , but until now, even Yaoyao doesn’t know who he is.
So how would he know?
Seeing the confused look on Xuanyi's face for a long time, Yaoyao felt her heart suddenly ache for some reason. She quickly shook her head: "I'm not asking about your past." Yes, Xuanyi never did
. I told Yaoyao about his past, and Yaoyao only knew his own name, but even this name was the name he changed.
Yaoyao never asked.
Even if Xuanyi really knows a lot of things that he should not know at his age.
He knows the languages of many countries, and even teaches Yaoyao how to learn them in his spare time.
He has excellent medical skills. Ever since Yaoyao was around him, he has almost never seen a disease that he can't cure. As long as he says he can cure it, as long as he prescribes medicine, the other party will be 70% to 80% better in a few days, and then They came to express their gratitude ecstatically, and for the few who couldn't be cured, they simply stated that there was no cure. Of course, most of them were scared off by the reward Xuan Yi offered after seeing the doctor.
Even the ugly birthmark on his face that had been with him for more than ten years, he was able to lighten it little by little, giving Yaoyao some hope of recovery.
But who is such a powerful person?
Why did he choose to save himself? Just because you are ugly enough?
Since he can save himself now, will he also leave himself where he is without warning?
Yaoyao didn't know and was very scared.
She was a dog without a home, and finally someone was willing to take her in, and was willing not to treat herself as a dog. She should have been a cow or a horse to repay him, but he didn't want anything.
This ultimate sense of happiness is not real at all, and Yaoyao always thinks it is a dream.
Normally, Yaoyao always tries his best to avoid this feeling, so he tries to pretend to be a member of Xuanyi's family and forgets the fact that he is just a dog he picked up on the roadside that has nothing to do with him.
But today I woke up on his shoulder, looking at the dark world and the sparks igniting in this world.
For a moment, she felt like she had no way to escape.
So I asked this stupid question.
Xuanyi sensed Yaoyao's emotional fluctuations and knew that she had touched the scar and knot that she didn't even dare to think about.
No matter how many times Xuanyi told her, it would never work, because Yaoyao had heard too many lies since she was born, so she could only use time to slowly heal the scars.
So the young man smiled, and then said softly: "I am who I am."
"A guy who tries hard to be a good person but can't be good at it."
Yaoyao shook his head vigorously: "Xuan Yi, you are obviously the best in the world. I'm here."
Xuanyi didn't answer, he just stretched out his hand and gently ruffled the girl's soft red hair.
...
...
The shuttle bus stopped quietly on the side of the road. Xuan Yi got off the bus first, then reached out to hold the girl's hand, and helped her walk down carrying the heavy turtle shell.
The street lights on the roadside flickered slowly, stretching the boy's shadow. Yaoyao stepped out of the car, and the evening breeze pulled up her short hair, revealing the traces of ulcers on her ears that were not covered up. Yaoyao bit her lips. Raise your hand to smooth out the hair there.
Xuanyi pretended not to see anything and said calmly: "Let's go."
Yaoyao nodded.
Lanyin City is not big, just a "small" city with less than one million. Xuanyi and Yaoyao walked towards the apartment where Xuanyi rented, stepping on the shadows under the street lamps in a rhythm that became longer and shorter.
But this time, a few hundred meters away from the apartment, I heard the noise there, and saw bright lights in the distance. Uncle Zhao was holding a Lanye Empire standard saber at the door, confronting a dozen men. With.
Xuanyi frowned, pulled Yaoyao behind him, and then walked there step by step.
Uncle Zhao's name is Zhao Dong. He is a retired soldier of the Third Army of the Lanye Empire. His most boastful bravery in his life was that he was only ten points short of being selected into the Ninth Army of Lanye. You must know that the Ninth Army of Lanye has its own station and The source of troops, out of respect for the Lanye Empire and at least superficial harmony with each other, rarely recruits troops outside the station.
However, the Ninth Legion has a great reputation and is a place that countless Lanye soldiers dream of joining. Therefore, every year, an Imperial Legion will receive a company exchange quota. The exchange is the qualification to train and serve in the Ninth Legion. Those who are lucky enough to get this There is no doubt that those who have the quota are the elite among the elite, and because the number is very small and does not harm the overall situation, the Imperial Military often turns a blind eye.
Although Uncle Zhao said that he did not join the Ninth Army in the end, and even said that it was only ten points away, there is a suspicion of bragging. But bragging is bragging, and at least one thing is certain, that is, Uncle Zhao's quality was definitely not low when he joined the army. , at least he has the ability to be shortlisted for this selection.
But now, of course, Uncle Zhao is not as brave as he used to be. During a mission, his team was attacked. He fought bravely to save the lives of several comrades, but he was injured in the femur. From then on, he walked a little awkwardly. Limping. The army does not raise idlers, but meritorious officials. However, Uncle Zhao did not want to be such an idler, so he submitted a report and asked to retire. After several reports, his superiors could not get rid of him, but finally he was allowed to do so.
After retiring, Uncle Zhao returned to his hometown and bought this three-story townhouse apartment with his retirement pension and pension. He had limited legs and feet, could not do much manual labor, and had no other skills except killing, so he bought it. He collects rent and lives a stable life in an apartment, but his temper is still as fiery as ever. He has a high status as a soldier in the Lanye Empire, so he likes to fight injustices, and people in the neighborhood like to come to him to mediate when they have problems.
But now, the situation seems to be slightly different.
Xuanyi had already walked closer and asked softly: "Uncle Zhao, what happened?"
