He doesn't want to die.
From small to large, he lived in peace and knew what was useful to him and what was useless to him.
At the beginning, he was loyal to the queen and wanted to support the prince. But gradually, he found that whenever the Prince did anything, the queen always pushed the responsibility to him, so he was rejected by his father.
But it didn't hurt him. But once, the minister who was loyal to the queen was about to be accused of corruption. In order to protect herself, the queen let his mother's wife carry the dirty pot. If it wasn't for Gu Yanqing's investigation, his mother's wife and he would die.
His mother's wife once said that he should not owe any favor to others. Therefore, he was loyal to Gu Yanqing and paid his debts for him.
Orange saved his life, and he paid for it.
But
But now he owes a lot of favor to that little girl. It seems that he can't pay it back in his life
"Out of the water! Our village is out of water! "
"Come on! Go back! My wife and children are still in the village! "
"Go back!"
Suddenly, the crowd suddenly became restless. Gu Yansheng gasped and looked up. The village was surrounded by fiery red flames. He blinked and fell to the ground when the crowd dispersed.
……
When he woke up again, there seemed to be a broken temple around him. Ling'er was on fire. When she saw him wake up, she met his eyes with a smile: "young master! Are you awake? "
"I... how could I... Be here..."
He turned his eyes slightly and looked at ling'er.
"I brought you here on my back. I burned their village. When I came back to find you, I found you lying on the ground and dying. Fortunately, the young master was blessed by the gods and survived."
She took his hand and pressed the back of it against her cheek. He looked at ling'er. She was dirty and her cheek was black.
"Thank you..."
He moved the corners of his lips and spoke slowly.
"I'm your servant. You don't have to thank me. It's far away from the village. It's very safe. You've been seriously injured and you can't leave. You can live here. Let's find a way after the wound scabs."
Said ling'er.
"It seems... That's the only way."
Gu Yansheng sighed and answered.
"Young master, don't worry now. I'll find a way for you..."
Ling'er whispered.
"Why do you think I'm worried?"
Gu Yansheng felt funny. Before she said anything, the little girl had been speculating about her meaning.
"I... I don't know..."
Ling'er shakes her head, but there is always a feeling that Gu Yansheng is impatient now.
"Don't worry, I'm not so vulnerable, but you. I really don't understand what I can do to make you follow me so faithfully. You could have run away by yourself. Why should you risk going through the forest to that village? What should you do if you die?
Aren't you afraid of death? "
Gu Yansheng twisted his brows and asked.
Ling'er bit her lip. She didn't know how to answer. She just felt that she couldn't let him die, even if she tried her best.
"For people like me, are you really worth it?"
Is it just because you like it?
Like can give everything, he never had any promise to her.
"I don't know whether it's worth it or not. I just... Don't want you to die..."
Ling'er said seriously, "my parents are gone. You are the one I met very hard. You also said you would take me in. From the beginning, I knew you were a good man, so I will follow you."
