Chapter 4 If life is just like the first meeting
"Shashasha——"
Under the darkness of night, Xiao Yan walked out of the practice room to get some air.
He was lying on the grass in the back hill, biting a piece of grass at the corner of his mouth.
I don’t know how much time passed, but he suddenly heard the rustling sound coming from the bushes.
"...Xun'er is here?"
Xiao Yan did not raise his head and just asked.
But the visitor did not answer.
"Xun'er?"
"...What, did I come at the wrong time? Or did I find the wrong person?"
Xiao Yan was slightly startled. This was definitely not Xun'er's voice. Although his voice was soft and graceful, it belonged to someone he had never been in contact with before.
He subconsciously raised his lowered gaze, and all he saw was a figure that completely covered the figure and face.
"Are you...?"
He is a stranger, but he doesn't seem to have any hostility.
Xiao Yan subconsciously propped himself up and hesitated to speak.
"Me? Just think of me as a passerby, don't worry about it."
Yaowan looked curiously at the young black-haired boy in front of her and said.
"Passers? Passers-by don't just walk into other people's homes."
Xiao Yan reacted after the initial shock: "The people in Wutan City don't have the courage. Sneaking into Xiao's house without permission... Are you from out of town?"
"...Huh, although you don't have much cultivation, you still have a bright mind."
Yaowan praised.
“Then who are you?”
“As I said, I’m just a passerby.”
“I didn’t even plan to come to such a boring little place. ...But I heard that a genius came out of the Xiao family two years ago, and he seems to be interesting."
Hearing this, Xiao Yan fell silent.
"It turns out that I came at the wrong time. The flowers I wanted to see have already withered."
Xiao Yan paused and couldn't calm down anymore. He just asked: "You are from out of town. Just to meet a useless loser?”
“No, I’m here to laugh at you——”
Yao Wan said without any concealment, just at the last moment of the conversation. Reposted: "If I said that, wouldn't it make you feel better?"
"...No, not at all."
Xiao Yan clenched his fists, his eyes filled with bloodshot eyes.
Seeing Xiao Yan's reaction, Yao Wan couldn't help but shake her head.
“I’m not convincing at all. It looks like I haven’t had a good night’s sleep in a few days, right?”
As she spoke, she raised her fingertips and placed them on Xiao Yan’s forehead. With a tap between his brows, Xiao Yan's body swayed slightly, and then he suddenly felt a clear-headed power flowing through his limbs and bones. Among the many meridians, Xiao Yan's energy in the past few days was dispelled. Accumulated fatigue.
"Hoo..."
Xiao Yan was stunned, and then took a deep breath.
Yao Wan then said: "Do you feel your body is light and comfortable?"
Xiao Yan nodded slightly dullly.
"Nonsense, if you don't take a good rest, you want to become an immortal, right?"
Yao Wan said sarcastically: "One day you feel light and light even without taking medicine, I'm afraid you won't be close to death either. Not far away.”
Xiao Yan reacted this time: "Aunt... Senior is an alchemist?"
Hearing the respect in Xiao Yan's tone, Yao Wan's focus was strange: "Senior?"
Xiao Yan realized that what he said was not quite right, and quickly said: "...Miss?" Yao Wan frowned slightly, why did this title become more and more strange the more she heard it.
But forget it, let’s just be a girl. Anyway, she’s only one year older than him, so it’s an advantage for him.
"Hey, just now you were talking about an outsider, but now you are talking about a senior, and now you are talking about a girl?"
Yaowan circled around Xiao Yan, with a bit of rude teasing in her tone.
"Young lady, you are joking. The strong ones in Dou Qi Continent are respected. I was so offended just now."
Xiao Yan responded in a neither humble nor arrogant manner. It can be seen that after two years of failure, he has fallen into the sand. It's not entirely a bad thing for him.
“Hmph, if you just act like a coward, I won’t bother to look at you, but you do have some courage.”
After saying that, she raised her head and looked at the young man in front of her, as if waiting for him to say something.
“Don’t you have anything to say to me?”
“What do you think, girl?”
“I can see that your fighting spirit cannot be gathered together. The problem is not caused by your body.”
I don’t believe it when a pharmacist appears in front of you. >
Seeing that he could not hide it from her, Xiao Yan had no choice but to say frankly: "Hope is one thing, but reality is another thing." It’s a reward. As for begging the girl, I don’t think there is any hope.”
“If you don’t beg me, how do you know there is no hope?”
“The girl is not the kind to play with others. "People, Xiao Yan has been silent for two years, and he can no longer recognize people."
Xiao Yan shook his head and said.
Yao Wan said nothing and just looked at him quietly. Xiao Yan didn't say much but silently responded to her gaze.
"There is nothing I can do to help you. Whether you believe it or not, it is not a bad thing that your fighting spirit cannot be gathered now. There is nothing I can do to help you solve this kind of thing."
"It's just that you have another year, a whole year, can you bear it?"
Yao Wan asked.
Xiao Yan shook his head and said: "To be honest, I don't know what the girl means by one year, but if there is still one year before we can practice, I will have two years in a row. We’ve all come here, will there still be a year difference?”
Yaowan was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Then I understand, you are indeed a bit interesting."
"Girl...are you planning to leave?"
"I originally planned to leave, but now that you have said so, I am not in a hurry to leave. I have been away for more than a year, and the outside world is just like that. I just want to find a place to rest for the time being. My It doesn't matter how long the journey lasts."
Xiao Yan thought: "What does that girl mean?"
"I think the environment in the Xiao family is not bad, I will stay here for a few days. Damn it.”
"...What's wrong? It's not appropriate?"
Seeing that Xiao Yan stopped talking, Yao Wan couldn't help but say.
"Where is it... I'm afraid that the Xiao family is too small, and the girl may not be used to it."
"I will get used to it in the future."
She brushed her sleeves and didn't care. road.
"Then I don't know what to call the girl?"
Xiao Yan asked.
"Let me just name my name, just call me Miss Wan."
Yaowan thought for a while, it would be better not to reveal her full name casually, so as not to cause any unwarranted consequences. It made the whole body fishy.
“I told you my name, what about you?”
"Xiao Yan, just call me Xiao Yan."
The black-haired boy, who was still young and immature at this moment, replied.
"Xiao Yan... OK, I remember this name."
