Chapter 42 His Choice
"Forsythia, I'll buy what I need with Bao and see if the carriage is cheap. I'll be back soon--"
"Well, you go."
When they came to Yucheng for the first time, Hongshang and Bao were very excited. This is a city famous for making jade. They walked on the bustling streets and felt different styles from their hometowns.
The little squirrel seemed to have not slept for a hundred years. As soon as he arrived at the inn, he lay on the table and fell asleep in a blink of an eye.
In order to save money, they only rented a house this time. Buy what you need and leave early tomorrow morning.
Forsythia took off the coat of the meat and took it to the backyard of the inn to clean it. The bright sun flashed overhead, and the fortachio held up the washed clothes and hung them on the pole.
The dark blue exorcist robe was wet under the sun, and drops of water dripped from the corners of the clothes and quickly wet the ground in front of his feet.
Forearm stepped back a few steps and ran upstairs. She opened the door and looked at the meat lying as usual, and the corners of her eyes were wet in an instant.
Gently walked to the bed and sat down.
She held her fleshy hand.
"On the way... I don't know how many things will happen. I'm afraid that your identity will be discovered by others..."
If the identity of meat is known by the people in the demon world, he is bound to kill himself, and with her ability, she can't protect him at all.
"I'm wondering if it would be better to send you... to the empty mountain..."
Tears quickly fell, and Lianqi clenched his hand and pressed it to his forehead.
There were bursts of dull pain in her heart.
"But... I don't want you to leave..."
Even if the meat can only lie here, can't move, can't speak, can't wake up, even if she can only do so, she still wants the meat to stay by her side.
The meat remains by her side, and she is sure to be at ease. What if something happens? - The meat will not fight or escape. In case of a fight, isn't he a target? The meat is still just asleep. If it hasn't arrived at the destination, it's already... out of breath. What should I do???
Rationally told her that Kongshan was the safest place, and Elder Fu would definitely protect him.
But I'm emotional and don't want to let the meat leave...
The hand holding the meat became tighter and tighter, and her heart became confused and she didn't know what to do.
I don't know when the little squirrel woke up. It sat on the table and quietly looked at the back of the fortight, with a trace of confusion in its eyes.
"Hey... Forsia..." he shouted.
"Hmm?" The forsythia reply has a strong nasal sound.
"Why are you crying?"
"...I didn't cry." Lian Jian wiped the tears off his face, turned around and smiled, "It's the sand that fell into his eyes."
“......”
Foria continued to smile, and the squirrel wrinkled his face and said rudely, "You lied to me, you just cried."
"Is it?" Lian Jian smiled helplessly. Why does she always cry? It's really annoying to cry like that. She wants to hold back but can't hold back. She always cries... It's annoying, isn't it? Obviously, she has been here for so long, but she is still not brave enough and strong enough. Even the question of whether to send meat away makes her at a loss.
"Little Fox." Lian Jian squeezed his mouth and turned to face him.
"I'm a squirrel."
"Do you think I'm going to send this brother away?"
"I don't have a brother."
"You are cute once in a while."
"I don't want to be cute. I want to be like my father!"
"Your father? Who is your father?"
"I won't tell you... Humph." The little guy turned his head and carefully looked at the fort. He jumped off the table and walked towards her, "Who is this man?" He pointed to the meat and asked.
The for foreared mouth smiled, but did not reply.
"Is he your brother?"
Fortear shook his head.
"Is he your father?"
Lipiao continued to shake his head, but there was a funny look on his face, "He is my boyfriend."
"Boyfriend?" The little squirrel can't understand this word.
"It's the person who wants to marry me in the future."
"Future? ...Fiance?" The little squirrel thought of this identity.
"It's almost." Lian Jian nodded.
"Why did you send him away?"
"Because... I can't protect him. If he is with me, his life will be in danger.
"Can he live if I send him away?"
"...Well, the probability is much higher."
"Then send it." The little squirrel said carelessly, "Since you can live after sending him away, why don't you send him away?" As long as you survive desperately, you will always see him again.
"Sure enough, do you think it's good to send it away?"
"Yes, I think it's good to send it away, but I don't know what he will think."
"..." Lian Jian was slightly stunned.
"If it were him, would he choose to be with you or leave you?"
Select...
Meat...choice?
What slowly emerged in the memory was the two people standing at the gate of the City of Death.
"Does forsythia mean that I'm cowardly?"
"That's not what I mean..."
"If you want to go, go ahead. I won't stop you."
“......”
"I won't go with you."
"Well..."
Lion foreared strode to the city with indignation and disappointment, but the meat did not follow. If she went to the city with her, she would die. She didn't want the two of them to die in vain. She wanted to persuade her to leave, but she was determined to go.
The two finally parted ways.
But in the end...in the end...
The blue figure appeared in front of them through layers of fog. The sword rose and fell, and the two demons died in the wind.
A surprise appeared in the forsythia's eyes! - He still came! Even if he knew that he would die when he entered the city, he still came!!——
Thinking of the scene of that day, why did she feel happy and want to cry with meat?
As long as I can be with her, the meat has never hesitated.
"Is this your choice..." Forgingia looked at the sleeping teenager and muttered softly, "I know the answer. If you can talk, you will definitely tell me not to leave.
"Yes, is there such a stupid person?" The little squirrel said without pain or itching.
"Yes." Forthia stood up and said, "Little fox, I handed him over to you for the time being. Do you have the ability to protect him?"
"Of course!" As soon as the little squirrel heard the ability, he quickly straightened his chest and shouted, "Don't underestimate me!" I'm awesome!"
"Well, please, I'll be back soon."
"What are you going to do--"
"Buy him new clothes." The sound came from outside the door, and the forsythia ran downstairs.
"New clothes..." The little squirrel took a look at the teenager and sighed heavily, "I also want to wear clothes... If only I could have an illusion..."
"Is that so?"
"Yes, I think so much, but..."
“......”
“......”
“......”
"What?!--" The little squirrel suddenly raised its head and looked left and right, and someone spoke to him! Who is talking?!
The window was suddenly opened, and a shadow flashed in and stopped next to the squirrel.
The little squirrel's eyes were almost staring out. He stepped back tremblingly and sat on the ground.
"What's wrong with him?" People came to ask.
"No, I don't know..."
He was out of the window just now, and the girl's conversation was a little strange, "Why did the girl say that he would die with him?"
"No, I don't know..."
"What's his name?"
"No, I don't know..."
The little squirrel was so scared that he couldn't even move. He swallowed his saliva desperately - heaven and earth can be seen. He has been sleeping these days. He really doesn't know anything...
"I, all I know... he is forbion... fiance."
"Well, I heard it." The man took two steps towards the bedside. He stared at the sleeping man closely. At this time, the teenager's breath was very weak, and he could not see anything special.
Think about the moves he used when the two of them fought against each other, which should be an excellent exorcist - that all?
He really can't think of anything special about this teenager, but he can't believe that things are just that simple. Normally, there should be no enemies in the Mu family now - as a ghost exorcist family, it does not conflict with the demon world and the demon world. The eyes of the demon lord will not be on this kind of dying little guy for the time being, and isn't the ghost clan, this Mu leader and the ghost killing alliance? Then there should be nothing to be afraid of...
Why is she still so worried? What is the identity of this teenager?
"Pay attention to this person's affairs and ask more about it."
"...yes!"
"Stand up."
"...yes!" The little squirrel quickly stood up.
"If you find out clearly, I will fulfill your wish."
"Really?!" The little squirrel looked at him in surprise.
"Hmm."
"Can anything do? ......”
"As long as I can do it."
"You must be able to do it!!!"
The visitor ignored the mood of the little squirrel, and his figure flashed and disappeared in the window in an instant.
The little squirrel still looked excitedly at the empty window sill. The sky outside the window was clear, and there was a sound of hawking from the street downstairs.
He suddenly rubbed the corners of his eyes and looked down at his hand.
The sun shone on his body, and he gently raised his hands to the empty room.
The height of his hands was higher than the top of his head. He raised his head and slowly closed his eyes.
No one knows what he is thinking.
No one can understand his mood at this moment.
All he knew was that he must dig out the identity of Lian Jian's fiance.
Definite.

Walking on the street, her eyes swept over the plaques of each store on the roadside and finally saw the four words "beautiful and fragrant". On the flag beside it, there is a big word "cloth" written on it.
She accelerated her pace.
Through the layers of crowd, I was about to step into the door of the store when I was hit by the people coming out of it.
Fortear took a few steps back and looked at the person who hit her as a nun younger than her, and her face was covered with fear.
"..." Lian Jian looked up at the store--
What's wrong?
