Chapter 656 Jealous
Chu Xiubai felt very uncomfortable.
He was sitting alone in the room, holding a flagon and drinking non-stop.
It was a surprise to meet Li Beibei today.
For so long, he never forgot her.
The moment he saw Li Beibei, he made an important decision.
It is so lonely in this world alone.
If you are with someone you like.
Based on the abilities of the two of them and their current knowledge, surviving here can be regarded as cheating.
Even if Fu Jingmo was by her side.
But Fu Jingmo is seriously ill now, and he doesn't remember anything.
This gave him hope.
And now...
He looked at the dark room opposite, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
Why did God tease him like this.
Give him hope, so short-lived, and extinguished like this.
And over there.
Li Beibei has already walked to the bed.
Fu Jingmo sat on the bed, and he tried his best to endure it.
In fact, at this moment, his brain has regained consciousness.
But his body didn't listen to it.
It seems that there is a ferocious beast living in the chest, and it is roaring crazily at this time, as if it is about to burst out.
He looked up at the woman in front of him.
The eyes became red, as if looking at prey.
Consciousness gradually blurred.
But soon he forcibly pulled his sanity back.
After going back and forth, he suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood.
Li Beibei hurried forward and held Fu Jingmo's shoulders: "What's wrong with you?"
Fu Jingmo pushed Li Beibei away: "Go away!"
Fu Jingmo turned his back: "While I still have a semblance of reason, you'd better leave quickly, otherwise, I don't know what I will do."
Li Beibei didn't leave.
She stepped forward, but hugged Fu Jingmo to her chest.
Li Beibei's rare tenderness: "Brother Jingmo, I'm not lying to you, we've been husband and wife for a long time..."
The skin contact broke Fu Jingmo's sanity instantly.
He stood up suddenly, and directly hugged Li Beibei by the waist...
The hot summer is over.
Early autumn nights are still a bit stuffy.
A gust of night wind blows, the bamboo forest outside is swaying, and the shadows on the eaves flow slowly like water.
The bright white moon hangs high in the sky.
Looking down at the joys and sorrows in this world.
The next morning.
When Li Beibei woke up, she happened to be lying in Fu Jingmo's arms.
Still a familiar posture, a familiar smell.
Li Beibei rubbed against his chest like a kitten.
took a greedy breath.
Everything that happened last night suddenly seemed like a dream.
Lying quietly beside Fu Jingmo like this, just like before.
But that already seemed like it happened in the previous life.
Li Beibei was in a complicated mood.
But I feel at ease after a long absence.
Fu Jingmo also woke up.
When he saw Li Beibei in his arms, Fu Jingmo was obviously taken aback.
Fu Jingmo stared down at Li Beibei.
Four eyes met, Li Beibei smiled: "Are you awake?"
Fu Jingmo's eyes were full of complexity: "Last night..."
Li Beibei knew what he was going to say.
Li Beibei covered Fu Jingmo's mouth with his palm: "Don't say anything, Fu Jingmo, we don't need to talk about this between us, we just need to be together."
Fu Jingmo hugged Li Beibei tightly.
Fu Jingmo said: "In this life, I will definitely live up to you."
Not long after.
Someone knocked on the door outside.
Li Beibei and Fu Jingmo also got up quickly.
Li Beibei went to open the door.
It turned out to be a girl from the mansion.
The girl brought two sets of clean clothes and said, "Miss, son, these are prepared by my master for you."
Li Beibei saw Chu Xiubai coming out of the opposite room.
Li Beibei glanced at him, and then said to the maid: "Thank you, master, for me."
Li Beibei and Fu Jingmo changed clothes and went out of the room.
Chu Xiubai had already asked someone to prepare breakfast.
When Chu Xiubai saw Fu Jingmo, he called out, "Second Uncle."
Fu Jingmo frowned: "I know you?"
Li Beibei said: "I told you, we traveled from another world, he is the same as us, he is your eldest brother's son, so he calls you second uncle."
Li Beibei told Fu Jingmo more than once that they don't belong here, they came from another time and space.
But to Fu Jingmo who lost his memory, he couldn't understand it.
He looked Chu Xiubai up and down.
Finally, his eyes fell on the face that looked somewhat similar to his own.
Fu Jingmo actually remembered some past events.
But as for things like time travel, he couldn't remember.
But he inexplicably believed in the woman in front of him.
As for this man...
Chu Xiubai said: "Second Uncle doesn't remember anything, so naturally he can't believe in supernatural things like time travel. Let's talk about the past when Second Uncle recovers his memory."
Chu Xiubai has already sat down: "Let's have breakfast."
Since Li Beibei escaped from Donghua Kingdom, he has basically never eaten such precise food.
In order to hide their identities, they either ate dry food.
Either hunting in the wild and warming up on the spot.
Now seeing delicacies such as crystal dumplings, mung bean cakes, and meat pies on the table, my index finger twitched instantly.
Li Beibei began to eat unceremoniously.
Chu Xiubai said: "Next, what are your plans?"
Li Beibei said: "I don't know, but we plan to go to Nanhan."
Li Beibei and Fu Jingmo's original plan was to walk along the Ninai River, walk out of Xizhou, and then go to Nanhan.
They must find the Leng family there.
Fu Jingmo only has half a year, so he really can't wait.
Last night, Li Beibei also told Chu Xiubai about Fu Jingmo's loss of mind.
Chu Xiubai said: "But you should not be able to go out now, the whole city is full of people looking for you, the princess' son-in-law escaped, and the prince was knocked out by a woman in the prince's mansion. This matter has spread throughout Xizhou City this morning. , and Donghua's envoy arrived yesterday, I went out this morning to inquire, and the envoy has confirmed with the Xizhou royal family that the person who escaped is Donghua's saint."
Li Beibei's hand stopped slowly.
Even the food on the table seems to have lost its flavor.
Chu Xiubai said: "That is to say, the two of you are now wanted criminals in both countries. Xizhou has always been attached to Donghua. They will definitely spare no effort to help find someone, not to mention there was such a riot in the palace yesterday."
Chu Xiubai hurriedly said: "Beibei, that's not what I mean, and I'm not afraid of getting involved with you. In this world, we are relatives, aren't we?"
Li Beibei lowered her head: "Thank you, Chu Xiubai, this time it is sincere."
Chu Xiubai said: "Don't say such polite words, you two should live here safely and securely, my place is clean, and I can bring back some news every day when I go to court, after the limelight, we will do it again." How about the arrangement?"
Li Beibei nodded in agreement.
Li Beibei and Fu Jingmo lived in the scholar's mansion like this.
Chu Xiubai can indeed bring back the latest news every day.
For example, the king of Xizhou has issued a nationwide search warrant, and the yamen in all counties must go door to door to find people.
For example, if you report them and catch them, you can get a hundred taels of gold.
Even if you provide useful clues, you can still get twelve taels of gold.
You must know that twelve taels of gold may be the continuation of half a life of ordinary people.
So the lives of the people in Xizhou went crazy, and they were looking for their traces everywhere.
But Li Beibei's life in the scholar's residence is quite stable.
Fu Jingmo basically stays in the library of the scholar's mansion to read books every day.
Li Beibei tinkers with some new gadgets every day.
Chu Xiubai also has a lot of new things in this mansion.
He collected a lot of modern things.
There's even a motorcycle.
But obviously, this motorcycle has been around for a long time.
I don’t know which ancestor who traveled over left behind.
But Li Beibei couldn't put it down.
She disassembled all the parts of the motorcycle and refitted it.
It took more than half a month to make the motorcycle look brand new.
Chu Xiubai did not know where he brought back a barrel of gasoline that night.
Li Beibei was shocked when she saw it, and said, "Why is there gasoline?"
Chu Xiubai said: "I bought it on the black market. In fact, Xizhou is a country rich in oil. This thing is called black fire oil here. It is usually used by folk sacrifices to drive away evil spirits. They don't know the real use of this thing. I waste it. I put in some effort to buy some and come back, you can see if you can use it.”
Li Beibei filled the motorcycle with gasoline and started it.
Unexpectedly, the motorcycle was actually started.
Li Beibei rode a motorcycle around the yard.
The speed is almost drifting.
The maids and servants in the mansion were all shocked and speechless after seeing it.
Li Beibei walked around the yard a few times, then stopped in front of Chu Xiubai.
Li Beibei patted the position behind her: "Have you forgotten the feeling of driving, do you want to go for a drive?"
Chu Xiubai did not refuse.
He stepped onto the motorcycle.
Li Beibei started again.
Chu Xiubai was originally holding Li Beibei's shoulder.
But after the car drove out at high speed, Chu Xiubai hugged Li Beibei's waist.
Li Beibei was also too excited for a while.
After all, in this environment, it is simply incredible to be able to drive your once beloved motorcycle.
Li Beibei drove the motorcycle at high speed.
After driving for a few laps, it finally stopped.
But found a figure not far away silently watching her.
It was Fu Jingmo.
Li Beibei came back to his senses.
She got out of the car quickly.
Chu Xiubai also got off the car.
But his expression was natural, and he said: "Beibei, your skills are still so good, I really almost forgot this feeling, just now you made me feel like I was shuttling among tall buildings in a big city."
It was difficult for Fu Jingmo to understand what Chu Xiubai said.
As for the words high-rise buildings, his mind was also blank.
But just now, the two of them were close to each other, and the way Master Chu hugged Li Beibei from behind made him feel extremely uncomfortable.
Li Beibei looked very excited and happy.
She ran over and hugged Fu Jingmo's arm: "Come here and try."
Fu Jingmo said, "I won't."
Li Beibei said: "You can teach you."
Fu Jingmo responded coldly: "I'm not interested."
After finishing speaking, he turned and entered the room.
Li Beibei seemed to be poured a bucket of cold water over his head.
Chu Xiubai said next to him: "It's my fault. The second uncle has lost his modern memory, and his thoughts may have already been infiltrated by the thoughts and values here. He must have been jealous when he saw us sitting in the same car just now. gone."
Li Beibei smiled, and said to Chu Xiubai: "Then I'll go and coax him."
So Li Beibei hurriedly followed.
hugged Fu Jingmo's waist: "Handsome guy, handsome husband, isn't he a handsome husband, don't be angry, I'll give you a ride from now on, okay..."
Chu Xiubai looked at the backs of the two who were gradually crossing their shoulders, but his face gradually sank.
Unknowingly, I stayed in the scholar's residence for another half a month.
The rumors of them being hunted outside are mostly over.
It is rumored that they have escaped from Xizhou country.
Li Beibei also decided to leave here.
After all, there is no longer any delay.
Nanhan has a long way to go.
Even in Nanhan, it is a difficult task to think of the Leng family.
This evening.
Li Beibei personally prepared the hot pot.
Wants to say goodbye to Chu Xiubai.
During the dinner, Chu Xiubai proposed: "How about I go with you."
Li Beibei was a little taken aback.
After all, Chu Xiubai is now a bachelor, and he is considered outstanding in this era, and his future is limitless.
Li Beibei hasn't spoken yet.
Fu Jingmo spoke from the side: "No."
Chu Xiubai said: "Second Uncle, we are a family."
Fu Jingmo said, "I don't know you."
Actually, Li Beibei also vaguely felt it a long time ago.
Although Fu Jingmo didn't express it.
But he has a natural hostility toward Chu Xiubai.
This kind of hostility seems to be the same as before them in modern times.
Is this the fate of injustice?
Li Beibei sighed.
Li Beibei said to Chu Xiubai earnestly: "Chu Xiubai, we are not going on a trip, but fleeing, and we may encounter many unknown dangers, not to mention that you have become a leader here, at least you will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life. Make meritorious deeds, this may be God giving you a chance to be reborn, there is really no need for you to live a life of ups and downs with us."
Chu Xiubai drank a glass of wine and said: "But I am here alone, it is really too lonely."
Li Beibei can empathize.
Just like the previous life, she was also reborn.
There are many things that parents, relatives, and friends cannot say.
Although there are people all around, sometimes, Li Beibei feels that she is the only one in that world, and everything else is just a figment of her own imagination.
This kind of loneliness goes deep into the bone marrow.
Especially in the dead of night, it seems that there is a bug gnawing at the bones and nerves.
Lonely for a long time, you will fall into a kind of self-doubt.
I don’t know whether this world is real or not, and what is the meaning of my existence.
Li Beibei could understand Chu Xiubai, but he still didn't approve of him going with him.
Li Beibei said: "I promise you, I will come to Xizhou to settle down when I get rid of the heart-wrenching Gu."
