1209. One person will lose his head if he wins.

Ren Xiaosu found it a little strange that after Yang Xiaojin came to Barrier 88, he didn't even revisit the Yang Manor. Instead, he kept taking him to small shops like Heping Tailor Shop to meet some former acquaintances.

"Xiaojin, please wait a moment." The middle-aged woman in the tailor shop wiped her hands, took off the sleeves on her arms, and then walked to the door to put the "Opening" sign hanging outside. "The small wooden sign was turned around and replaced with "Closed".

It was already closing at 9 o'clock in the morning. It seemed that the other party didn't want anyone to disturb her and Yang Xiaojin's reminiscing about the past.

The tailor shop is small, with all kinds of cloth hanging on the walls. The room also smells good of leather, which is not pungent at all.

The windows were wiped clean and the floor was also very clean. Ren Xiaosu could tell that the other party lived a very careful and delicate life.

The middle-aged woman looked at Ren Xiaosu with a smile: "Let me introduce myself. I am a tailor who measured Xiaojin's clothes since she was a child. My name is Lan Jingchu. How about you call me Aunt Lan? Northwest The young marshal is really different, just like the legend, he is full of energy and has a natural ability to dress up."

Ren Xiaosu felt a little embarrassed because others praised him behind his back for his greatness and great fighting ability. It shows that he can listen with great interest and even participate in the discussion as if nothing happened.

But once he is praised in person, he will show a rare shyness.

Not many people can see the shy side of Ren Xiaosu.

However, what Ren Xiaosu is most worried about at this time is that he is afraid that Yang Xiaojin will suddenly say that he is not allowed to call him Aunt Lan, because Aunt Lan is younger than Grandma Lin...

Fortunately, Yang Xiaojin didn’t add anything.

"Wait a moment, I'll make you two cups of tea," Aunt Lan said and entered the back room.

There are brown solid wood tables and chairs in the room, with candies and snacks placed on them, which should be prepared for guests.

Yang Xiaojin twisted a piece of candy and peeled off the sugar coating, then handed it to Ren Xiaosu: "Have a try, this is the taste I remember when I was a child."

Ren Xiaosu took it into his mouth, A strong plum flavor mixed with saliva filled the air.

I don’t know why, but as soon as the candy was in his mouth, Ren Xiaosu suddenly felt much more relaxed.

Aunt Lan came out with a tea tray. She looked at Yang Xiaojin: "Is there anything you need to do when you return to Barrier 88 this time? Is there anyone that Aunt Lan can help with?"

As he spoke, he placed two cups of brewed black tea in front of Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin.

Yang Xiaojin shook her head, she pointed at Ren Xiaosu and said: "There is nothing serious, just make him four suits and keep them for him as a spare."

"It turns out "So," Aunt Lan's smile grew: "Then I have to do it well, but for four sets of clothes, I may need to ask tailors from other stores to help, otherwise it will take a long time for me to do it alone."

"Well, it's okay," Yang XiaoJin then looked at Ren Xiaosu: "How much is it?"

"No need," Aunt Lan smiled and shook her head: "Yang's money has not been used up yet, and there is still a lot left. , I’ll get you the account book, it doesn’t matter if you use the remaining money to make another twenty sets of clothes.”

Ren Xiaosu secretly sighed, is the consortium so wealthy?

Yang Xiaojin said: "No need to look at the account book. Aunt Lan, please call me a more familiar shoemaker. I will give him twelve pairs of shoes."

Ren Xiaosu listened. I was stunned when I got here, and even Aunt Lan was a little surprised: "Do we need to do so much?"

"Well," Yang Xiaojin said, "I want the strongest one."

At this time, even Aunt Lan felt something was wrong. Who in the world would make so many shoes at once?

And Ren Xiaosu felt a little uneasy. This feeling was like a precursor to separation, just like a wife would prepare a lot of ingredients for her husband before leaving, for fear that her husband would be hungry at home alone.

If the husband is going on a long journey, the wife will leave ten pairs of shoes at home for her husband to wear on the road.

This is a gift before leaving.

Yes, what Yang Xiaojin is doing now is as if she is going on a long trip.

At this time, Yang Xiaojin was still minding his own business and explaining to Aunt Lan: "The suit should be looser around the waistline, armpits, and shoulders, because he has a lot of activity and sometimes gets caught off guard. There is a fight, and if it is too tight, it will affect his movement. In addition, the shoes must be very strong. He has already broken several pairs of shoes."

If nothing else, when the extraordinary power suddenly explodes, The force endured by the soles of the feet and shoes is indeed great. Many extraordinary people actually suffer from wearing out their shoes. After two battles, their shoes turn into crocodile mouths.

After Yang Xiaojin finished explaining, Aunt Lan immediately called a shoemaker on the landline. The other person was also very professional. He used clay to rub the shape of Ren Xiaosu's foot, saying that this was how he could make it. The most suitable shoes.

To be honest, this was the first time in Ren Xiaosu's life to enjoy such treatment.

When the footprints were being printed, Yang Xiaojin was still wondering how long it would take to do it, and whether it would be faster to add more money.

Then I asked if I could prepare some more insoles, the best ones.

At this moment, Yang Xiaojin lost his heroic spirit and became more gentle.

After the shoemaker left, Yang Xiaojin suddenly asked Aunt Lan: "Where's Uncle Li? Why haven't I seen him after being here for a long time? Did he have a rest today?"

That night, Ren Xiaosu took Yan Liuyuan and others to leave first, but before leaving, Li's nano-warriors had already arrived at the barrier and started attacking arbitrarily.

That war has nothing to do with Ren Xiaosu, butThe reason why Li's nano soldiers were able to break through the Qing's defense line and reach the Yang's was because Qing Zhen did it intentionally.

That’s why some people say that no snowflake is innocent in an avalanche.

However, from Ren Xiaosu's perspective, he could not say that Qing Zhen's choice was wrong.

In such a sad era, everyone is like a person drowning in water. If you want to swim out of the water and breathe, the only person you can rely on and trust is yourself.

If you are not strong enough, don't try to save other drowning people, because you will be grabbed by the neck and sink to the bottom of the sea together.

Aunt Lan said softly: "That day was his birthday. I closed the shop early and went home to cook. He said he was going to measure someone else's clothes before going home. As a result, I later found out that he was He went to the flower market and bought me a bouquet of roses. When I found him, the roses were scattered next to his body, soaked in blood."

Yang Xiaojin was stunned for a long time and did not speak. There is not too much sadness. Living in this era, who is not used to seeing life and death?

According to Qing's statistics, the average life expectancy of Qing's people in the past ten years was only 51. On the one hand, it was due to a lack of supplies, and on the other hand, the medical level was far inferior to that before the disaster.

Ren Xiaosu remembered that before the disaster, the average life expectancy in many cities exceeded 70, and in some first-tier cities it was over 83. This is the change brought about by different medical levels.

So, this is an era when everyone is better at saying goodbye.

It’s not that everyone wants to be good at it, but life forces you to get used to it.

Coming out of the tailor shop, Yang Xiaojin took a deep breath and said, "Xiaosu, when the clothes are ready, leave two gold bars for Aunt Lan in case of emergency."

"Yes, I will," Ren Xiaosu nodded.

"Let's go. It's noon. I'll treat you to beef patties. When I was a child, my favorite was beef patties. It tastes better than the ones at home," Yang Xiaojin said. She thought for a moment silently: "Afternoon I'll buy you other things."

Ren Xiaosu was a little silent. He didn't know what the so-called other things were.

While walking on the road, he could feel Yang Xiaojin's deep nostalgia for this barrier. Even though the other party had no relationship with the Yang Group, this place carried the other party's childhood and happiness.

In the afternoon, Yang Xiaojin bought him three brand-new jackets, the best quality ones.

These days, those who can buy jackets are basically rich or expensive. After all, there are too few people who can break through the barriers and use jackets.

In the outdoor supplies store, Yang Xiaojin also bought the best engineer shovel, tent, thermal blanket, and even emergency oxygen bottles for Ren Xiaosu.

Yang Xiaojin’s generosity and wide range of purchases made Ren Xiaosu dumbfounded.

In the evening, the girl in the peaked hat went to buy a lot of fresh seasonings for Ren Xiaosu.A big jar of that.

Salt, pepper, chili powder, soybean paste, soy sauce, oil, MSG...

All available.

This feeling is like being afraid that Ren Xiaosu will not find anything useful when living alone.

Finally, Yang Xiaojin also bought Ren Xiaosu the most expensive Ginkgo brand waterproof watch that could be found in Fortress No. 88.

At that time, the boss said that the watch was very strong. One of his friends accidentally fell downstairs with the watch, and the watch was completely unharmed.

The only pity is that although the watch is not broken, his friend fell to death...

Ren Xiaosu, as a person who carries the memories of pre-catastrophic civilization and post-catastrophic civilization, , I felt a little emotional when I bought the watch.

Before the disaster, some watches cost hundreds of thousands or millions, and they were not necessarily available for purchase.

If you want to buy a popular watch at a counter, you have to buy two cheap watches together, just like buying a best-selling car requires a price increase.

It's better now. Buy the most expensive watch, and the boss will happily support you like a wild father.

After coming out of the watch shop, Ren Xiaosu looked at the darkening sky and finally couldn't help it: "Xiaojin, if you have anything to say, you can tell me directly..."

Yang Xiaojin glanced at him: "Sooner or later, you will say what you need to say, don't be anxious."

As he said that, Yang Xiaojin actually found an office supplies store and bought a pen and a notebook.

When Ren Xiaosu saw her buying a pen and notebook, his heart skipped a beat. Was he going to write a letter to himself? The kind that leaves a letter after leaving without saying goodbye?

After returning to the hotel that night, Yang Xiaojin locked herself in the room alone, and then asked Ren Xiaosu not to sleep yet.

Yang Xiaojin said that no matter what doubts Ren Xiaosu had in his heart, he would have an answer tonight.

In summer, the wind blows at night.

Ren Xiaosu climbed out of the window to the roof of the hotel alone. He silently looked at the lights of thousands of houses that had not been extinguished, and suddenly felt a little lonely.

Unprecedented loneliness.

In fact, Ren Xiaosu has never mentioned his worries to others, and even Yan Liuyuan has never heard of his worries.

Sometimes, he feels that he does not deserve a home.

Finally I got an apprentice, and he passed away.

Finally, a group of bandits were gathered together to rebuild their homes, but the bandits were gone.

Finally I have a younger brother, who has gone to the northern grasslands.

Finally, there was an elder Jiang Xu, but Jiang Xu was assassinated.

Ren Xiaosu was like a person walking down a long dark street. When he looked back, he found that no one was waiting under the dim lights.

Under the light, there are only words of farewell.

"Master, I'm leaving."

"Brother, I can't go back."

"Xiaosu, please protect me."Heavy. ”

The hot breeze in the summer night blows against your face and then blows away gently. The humid air in the south is like hot and humid breath, and the occasional coolness in the wind is like a singer strumming a guitar.

Ren Xiaosu looked back in memory, and found that he was still the only one on the long road.

There were only muddy footprints on the road. There are also messy thorns.

Other than that, there is nothing left.

“I’m just a broom star,” Ren Xiaosu smiled bitterly: “I can’t even keep a home. live. ”

It turns out that the home on Anning East Road, No. 144, that I wanted to return to the most, was the only one left in the end. The other party actually didn’t want to go back.

The young man had complicated thoughts. And fragile and sensitive, Ren Xiaosu, who encountered love for the first time, was worried about gains and losses like all teenagers.

However, at this moment, a window below him opened, and Yang Xiaojin poked his head towards the roof. Ren Xiaosu waved.

Ren Xiaosu was stunned for a moment. He thought the other party would leave a letter, but the result... seemed to be a little different than expected.

He followed the wall. Climbing down, when he got into Yang Xiaojin's room through the window, he saw the other party handing him the small book in his hand.

"Is this...?" "Ren Xiaosu hesitated. He was a little afraid to open it and take a look.

But Yang Xiaojin had changed from the silence and calmness of the past two days. She said with a smile: "You will know after you open it and take a look. "

Ren Xiaosu turned over the first page, and in the center of the book was written "Use the volume without being angry."

After turning over the first page, there was an explanation written on the back: Use this volume I I won’t be angry with you anymore, and I will give you a big hug. On the second page, it says “Just leave and use the scroll”.

Turn over. After passing the second page, there is an explanation on the back: After using this volume, I will accompany you wherever you go to the end of the world.

The third page is the "Tenderness and Consideration Volume". After using this volume, I will be with you. Within a day, you will transform into the gentlest little angel.

The fourth page is the "Massage Volume". After using this volume, I can give you a 120-minute massage and become your gold medal technician, good at breaking bones. Massage.

The fifth page is the "Deluxe Breakfast Coupon". After using this roll...

Ren Xiaosu turned over page after page, and the pages of "Privileged Use Coupon" were like It’s the warm coals in the snow that smooth out all the bad moods.

The privilege volume has a total of ninety-nine pages, and the last page reads: Expiration date, forever.

Ren Xiaosu looked up at Yang Xiaojin silently. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything.

Yang Xiaojin said with a smile. "Do you like the gift I gave you? "

"I like it," Ren Xiaosu took a deep breath and said, "But, you have been... for the past two days..."

"Ignore you, right? I purposely made you angry," Yang Xiaojin smiled.He said: "Next time you run far away without saying a word, there will be more cruel punishments. Ren Xiaosu, please remember, if you take risks alone in the future, I will beat you." "

Ren Xiaosu: "..."

"Anything else you want to ask?" Yang Xiaojin asked.

"Why are you so persistent in accompanying me on adventures," Ren Xiaosu asked softly.

Yang Xiaojin said seriously: "I lost you once, so I swear that I will never lose you again in this life."

Ren Xiaosu asked again: " Then why did you suddenly give me so many gifts, such as clothes, shoes, etc."

"When I learned that you were 240 years old, I was actually quite disappointed," Yang Xiaojin said: "It turns out that I I have missed you for more than two hundred years."

At that moment in the wizarding country, Yang Xiaojin suddenly felt as if he was looking at Ren Xiaosu across the river of time.

At that moment, Yang Xiaojin was more lonely and lonely than Ren Xiaosu, as if a hand in time was pulling Ren Xiaosu away.

However, Yang Xiaojin is an extremely straightforward person. Since there is a distance, she will bring it back.

Ren Xiaosu was stunned. Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Yang Xiaojin: "Don't talk yet, let me talk."

"In the past two days, I have taken you there. My favorite bun shop also took you to my favorite tailor shop, including the store where I used to buy outdoor supplies." Yang Xiaojin said, "Actually, I just want you to see my past life, so that you can understand the store in front of you. I am just like you who once lived by my side.”

“I give you gifts because I want to make up for the life I have missed in you. Every time I think of you, I am not in your life for 221 years. I will feel uncontrollably disappointed, so I will give you 240 extra birthday gifts so that there will be no regrets. In the future, since you accept the gifts, you must treat them as you have been with me for the past 240 years. ."

She hugged Ren Xiaosu gently, then gently pressed her face against Ren Xiaosu's collarbone and said, "Xiaosu, this is the first time for everyone to meet love. I don't know how to maintain this relationship. I don’t know how to express my feelings. All I can do is leave no room for myself.”

Ren Xiaosu looked at the girl in the peaked hat in front of him blankly, yes, they both have a life. When it comes to encountering love for the first time in life, no one has any preparation, and this hot feeling comes without warning.

The relationship between the two of them seems to be more passionate and rich than others. They have fought side by side, lived and died together, been separated, and reunited.

The other person has no experience in love, but he treats him with the most sincere feelings.

People always say that companionship is the most loving farewell.

What Yang Xiaojin wants to do now is to accompany him throughout his life, whether in the past or in the future.

At this time, Ren Xiaosu suddenly asked: "Why didn't your key door open at barrier 144?"'s home? The wizards said that the key door will open where they want to go most..."

As a result, Yang Xiaojin was obviously stunned this time: "That's my home, I can go back at any time, why do I still want to go back?" Where to open it? ”

When she said this, Ren Xiaosu was also stunned.

The end point of opening the key door is actually the inner need. Everyone at every stage Children's psychological needs are different. Children want to go to the candy house, and Chenjiu wants to go to the beach to escape from the world.

If you follow Yang Xiaojin's statement, then the key door. The way to open it is actually to go to a place that you can't go to.

Ren Xiaosu has never had a home, so even though he has a "home" now, he is still worried about gain and loss.

And he was there at the time. The wizarding country is thousands of kilometers away from home, and Yang Xiaojin is not around yet.

But Yang Xiaojin is different. She has already subconsciously regarded it as her destination, so the level of her inner needs has dropped a lot: she can go back at any time anyway.

Ren Xiaosu always felt that something was wrong: "Aren't you afraid of losing that home? ”

“Lost? Yang Xiaojin was curious: "How to lose it?" Are you abandoning that home? Do you dare? "

"Ahem," Ren Xiaosu said quickly: "Don't dare..."

"Then it's over," Yang Xiaojin said.

Facts On the contrary, Yang Xiaojin was the one who entered the period of psychological stability earlier. She already had a sense of security, while Ren Xiaosu did not.

Ren Xiaosu sighed: "I thought you cared about my age these days. , I want to leave without saying goodbye. "

The corners of Yang Xiaojin's mouth turned up: "If I don't give you some memory, what will you do if you keep running around in the future? "

"I won't run away anymore," Ren Xiaosu quickly promised.

"That's pretty much it," Yang Xiaojin said proudly, "But it will be a little troublesome for you to celebrate your birthday in the future. It’s scary to think about inserting 240 candles. How scared the friends who celebrate your birthday are. "

Ren Xiaosu: "? ? ? "

Why do you say this at this time?!

"By the way," Ren Xiaosu asked, "So are you giving gifts based on the quantity? You have given enough now. 240 pieces? "

Yang Xiaojin shook his head and said: "No, it is 239 now. Counting 99 privilege usage coupons, there are only 239 pieces. "

Ren Xiaosu was stunned for a moment: "Then what is the last thing left? "

At this time, Yang Xiaojin suddenly took off his peaked cap, and then said softly: "The 240th gift is myself. "

Ren Xiaosu trembled: "Please don't objectify women..."

However, before he could finish his words, he saw Yang Xiaojin throwing the cap in his hand and destroying all the people in the room. Light switch: "Let me see how long you are going to be cowardly! "

Xia Guiyue, red sleeves don't need to cry.

At this moment, Ren Xiaosu suddenly thoughtRecalling what my father said to me in that letter, Xiaosu, do you already have love?

Love is when you suddenly feel that you don’t have to conquer the world, become famous, become famous, or have a lot of money to feel happy.

I even lost my ambition a little bit and thought this was good.

You care about everything and can compromise on anything.

Love is about worrying about gains and losses in a panic. Some people grow old and lonely, while others finally understand that all the panic and waiting are worth it.

Love is meeting someone you want to commit to for a lifetime at the right time.

......

This chapter really made me think about it for a long time. . .
