Chapter 43 That’s awesome!
Chapter 43 That’s awesome!
Looking back on the past, does it count as carving a boat and seeking a sword in the long river of time?
Luo Congan could not answer this question.
But if she could, she would stay in the time she spent with her husband forever.
……
……
In the fourth year of Tianxuan, there was a heavy snowfall in Guanping City.
In the past few years since the new emperor came to power, he has already imposed strict and heavy taxes, but also encountered such an extremely harsh climate. I don't know how many people will starve to death and how many will freeze to death.
Especially those helpless beggars in the city.
Because of the heavy snow, there were almost no pedestrians on the road, and there was no one to beg for. So he could only huddle in the corner with an hungry stomach and howl, waiting for the last moments of his life to come.
Luo Congan is also one of them.
She tightened her thin and tattered clothes tightly, but she was only seven or eight years old. She could not see the innocence and liveliness of other children of the same age in her eyes, only a deathly numbness and indifference.
The little girl was leaning in a corner deep in the alley, her body cold and stiff.
She thought that if there was no accident, she might not be able to survive tonight.
The wind and snow are often more violent at night, and many beggars living on the streets will die on such nights.
They deserve no sympathy and no one deserves sympathy.
Because every poor person living on the streets always has something hateful behind him.
Just like Luo Congan.
From birth, it is a scourge that should not exist.
The year she was born, her mother was too weak due to dystocia and could not get out of that winter.
As the news spread, neighbors came to express condolences and visit.
But within two years, his father also passed away. He died on the mountain where he went hunting and never came back.
As a result, many vague discussions couldn't help but focus on this ignorant little girl.
People said she was evil, killed her parents, and destroyed an entire happy family.
Fortunately, her uncle stepped forward and adopted her.
But those discussions did not disappear. Instead, they always lingered around Luo Congan, popping up from time to time.
It wasn't until she was six years old that the uncle who adopted her also gave up.
Because all the inheritance that should be obtained has been collected, then she has lost the need to exist for her uncle.
What's more, a wandering Taoist priest came to my uncle's house this year.
The Taoist priest stared at the little girl for a long time, then took several steps back in shock, calling her a monster.
The Taoist priest's words aroused widespread recognition from everyone.
After all, look at that snow-white long hair, how could he be a normal person?
The white hair and red eyes became the evidence that the little girl killed her parents with her own hands.
The uncle abandoned her naturally, leaving the family without a mouth to eat.
Although Luo Congan never thought that she was unknown, she had no room for resistance at a young age.
Everything can only be endured.
Until today, she seemed to be finally free.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with ending it early...
Luo Cong'an was just thinking blankly when he suddenly heard a patter of footsteps in his ears.
She subconsciously wanted to reach out her hands and kneel down to beg. After all, survival is human instinct.
You know, it's not easy to meet someone who is out on a snowy day like this.
But the next moment, she stopped moving abruptly.
He just buried his head, which was already buried between his legs, a little deeper.
The steps suddenly stopped.
Immediately afterwards, there was a gentle male voice.
"Want to come with me?"
For a moment, Luo Congan thought he was so hungry that he was hearing hallucinations.
<divclass="contentadv">She remained motionless.
Then the male voice sounded again, but this time it was a slightly regretful sigh.
"Don't you want to?"
he asked again.
This time Luo Cong'an heard clearly. She suddenly raised her head. Under her dirty and smelly white hair, her eyes were full of disbelief.
She heard it right, and it wasn't an auditory hallucination.
But someone is actually saying this.
The newly established will to die was immediately destroyed by an even stronger desire to live.
The little girl quickly knelt down in front of the young man, kowtowed with all her strength, and kept saying: "If you are willing, if you are willing, please take me in. I can do anything... I am very capable, if you want I can do anything..."
Chen An bent down and helped her up.
Then he took a closer look at the first heroine designated by the system.
Her hair was no longer white and shiny, but covered with smelly and rotten mud and dirt. Her eyebrows were thin and long, and there were many tiny cuts on her face.
She was wearing a piece of clothing that was so worn that it could only be called fabric. Her exposed skin was blue from the cold, and her petite body was shaking constantly.
Except for having a pair of strange red eyes, she doesn't look much different from other beggars.
While Chen An was sizing her up, Luo Cong'an was also peeking cautiously.
She put her feet together awkwardly and rubbed her fingers uneasily. When she was about to meet Chen An's eyes, she quickly lowered her head, not daring to look at him.
Afraid of making Chen An unhappy, he turned around and left.
After a while, seeing that the young man was still speechless, the hope that had just been ignited in the little girl's heart was visibly extinguished again.
She couldn't help but think, yes, how could others like her dirty look?
If it were her, and she met such an ugly and smelly beggar on the road, even if she didn't say it on the face, she would secretly dislike him in her heart.
If it were one of those masters from Zhuyi Lane, he would probably have to be kicked away by his servant to avoid contaminating her bad luck.
After all, this is not the first time Luo Congan has been treated like this.
Thinking of this, the light in the girl's eyes slowly faded, returning to the initial numbness.
These days, the least valuable thing is human life.
Even if he really wanted to find a servant, he would not choose a weak and useless little girl like her.
Luo Cong'an felt sorry for himself, moved his steps, and wanted to return to the corner.
Although the wall is freezing cold, it is still a source of support.
Suddenly, her hand was held by another hand.
The warm and warm feeling is very comfortable.
Let Luo Cong'an's heart beat faster.
Then, Chen An spoke, with the same gentle and gentle voice.
He smiled and said, "Sorry, I was a little surprised when I saw you with white hair and red eyes."
White hair, red eyes.
Luo Cong'an keenly caught these two words. She lowered her head and twitched her hands hard.
No twitching.
The opponent's grip was very tight.
But Luo Congan's voice trembled, with a hint of crying.
"I know that I was born unknown. I don't need you to emphasize it. Just let go..."
Her anxious and stressed look made Chen An look a little stunned.
He thought for a moment and smiled knowingly.
"You seem to have misunderstood."
"I mean, white hair, red eyes and all, that's really... awesome."
