Chapter 44 is the first acquaintance and the reunion after a long separation
When Bai Xi was already approaching, the blind girl still didn't speak, just stood there blankly.
But only she knew that her inner lake, which was as calm as a pool of stagnant water, began to ripple, and began to glow with life as they approached.
Just like the spring breeze passing by, the snow melts and the ice melts, and everything revives.
"Okay, it seems we got the wrong person, sorry."
When Bai Xi stood three steps away from the blind girl, he suddenly stopped and said this with some disappointment and embarrassment.
She had recognized the blind girl in front of her, who was mute for five years.
Although she didn't know why the other party suddenly spoke and was blind again, it seemed that the other party no longer recognized them, and there was no need for her to pester them anymore.
"Let's go, Chenchen."
Bai Xi stretched out her hand towards Long Haochen.
Long Haochen had been stunned since Bai Xi opened his mouth, thinking about the similarities between the blind girl in front of him and the mute girl five years ago.
He really couldn't figure out how Bai Xi connected the two people. Other than the fact that their hair is purple, there doesn't seem to be much similarity between them.
Therefore, there was no timely response.
When he reacted and was about to hold Bai Xi's hand, someone beat him to it.
A very white hand stretched out and handed it to Bai Xi.
"Can you please send me back?"
It's the blind girl.
She, who had just rejected Long Haochen, actually took the initiative to seek help from Bai Xi.
"Of course."
Bai Xi reached out to hold the blind girl's hand, but the blind girl flinched again and was about to take back her hand.
Bai Xi didn't allow her to shrink in front of him, so he grabbed the blind girl's wrist. It felt cold in his hand, as if he was holding a piece of fine cold jade.
Contrary to Bai Xi's feeling, the blind girl only felt as if her hands were soaked in the hot spring, which was able to remove the coldness from her whole body.
"It turns out my hands are cold. It doesn't matter. My hands are warm and they complement each other."
Bai Xi chuckled and made a joke.
The blind girl's whole body suddenly relaxed.
"Formal introduction, I am Bai Xi, and this is my brother Long Haochen."
Hearing Bai Xi's introduction, Long Haochen, who had been struggling, suddenly stopped struggling, and there was only this sentence in his mind.
"I am Sheng Caier."
After much hesitation, the blind girl introduced herself.
When the three of them looked at each other, it was the first time they met, and it was also the reunion after a long separation.
"Let's go, Cai'er. Wherever your home is, we will take you home."
Bai Xi held Sheng Cai'er's right hand, while Long Haochen stood on Sheng Cai'er's left hand side. The brother and sister protected this old acquaintance who seemed to need protection in the middle.
"Go forward seventy-six feet, turn right thirty-eight feet, then turn left twenty-three feet, and you're here."
Sheng Cai'er replied, her voice still cold, but much better than at the beginning.
"What a coincidence, we live very close to each other."
After mentally estimating the distance and walking the route, Bai Xi discovered that the place where Sheng Cai'er lived was also a hotel, just near their hotel.
Long Xingyu seemed to have mentioned before that all the people staying in that hotel were people from the Assassin's Temple.
Five years ago, the man in white with the Thousand Strikes Spiritual Furnace, who was also from the Assassin Temple, tried to recruit her away.
This is right again.
"Do you live nearby?"
Sheng Cai'er spoke softly and got some information from Bai Xi's words.
Bai Xi and Long Haochen also came to participate in the Demon Hunting Group selection competition, and it was probably the Knight Temple, because Long Haochen was a knight.
Sheng Cai'er also remembered the details of their encounter very clearly.
"Yes."
It took Bai Xi a long time to speak, and his voice actually had a bit of a nasal sound.
Shocked, Long Haochen and Sheng Cai'er looked in her direction at the same time, although Sheng Cai'er couldn't see it.
"Xi Xi, what's wrong with you?" Long Haochen saw the tears hidden in Bai Xi's eyes and immediately became anxious.
Also anxious was Sheng Cai'er.
Although she cannot see, her other senses are very sensitive.
She is sad.
Sheng Cai'er thought in her heart and suddenly felt a little sad.
She was a little surprised when she felt this emotion.
"I'm fine, I'm really fine, don't worry."
Bai Xi had sorted out her emotions, but there was a storm in her heart.
Although Bai Xi was holding Sheng Cai'er's wrist and leading her away, she was actually diagnosing Sheng Cai'er's pulse secretly.
Bai Xi's medical skills were very good, and he soon knew from the pulse condition what kind of torture Sheng Cai'er's body had gone through.
So I couldn't control my emotions for a while.
This is a kind of compassion and empathy.
"We're here, let's go first."
The place where they met was not very far from the hotel, and they arrived quickly.
Bai Xi and Long Haochen first sent Sheng Caier to the door of her hotel and prepared to say goodbye.
"Wait."
When they turned around, Sheng Caier suddenly stopped them again.
"I remember you, I have never forgotten you."
Sheng Caier said this as if she had made up her mind.
The reason why she said this suddenly was a complete misunderstanding.
She didn't know that Bai Xi had checked her pulse, and thought that Bai Xi was suddenly sad because she didn't recognize them and denied that they had ever known each other.
Therefore, she finally decided to admit her identity.
"Thank you that day. Thank you today too."
Sheng Cai'er said softly, as if a burden had been lifted off her.
But Long Haochen was completely stunned.
This is actually a person. What on earth is going on? It would be bad to be able to speak but not see again. It would be bad to be able to see but not be able to speak in the future.
But the key is, how did the two of them recognize each other?
Why can't he recognize it? !
"You're welcome."
Bai Xi turned back and smiled at Sheng Cai'er, not caring about Sheng Cai'er's concealment.
At this time, she roughly understood why Sheng Caier pretended not to know them.
The past is too heavy, and the reasons why one's consciousness has been blocked are also heavy. It's hard to tell others, especially people like them.
"You didn't take the medicine I prepared five years ago. I wonder if you will still dare to take the medicine I prepared five years later!"
Bai Xi suddenly said this.
Sheng Cai'er didn't react at all, why her mind was jumping so fast, but she already nodded subconsciously.
"Okay, then we'll see you tomorrow!"
Bai Xi raised her hand towards Sheng Cai'er and stepped slightly heavier to remind Sheng Cai'er that they were leaving.
"She, what does she mean?"
"Did she see something?"
"She... doesn't she think I'm a monster?"
Sheng Cai'er stood at the door of the hotel and murmured in a low voice, unable to regain her consciousness for a long time.
For some reason, she always felt like Bai Xi had seen through her.
But strangely enough, she was not tired of this feeling.
