What would happen to the elder brother if he told the truth to him?
Will she stand firmly on his side as always, or will she avenge her father and kill him?
Thinking of the latter possibility, Ye Ying felt suffocated and felt that the whole world was dark and dull.
He was stunned and didn't know how to answer Yun Xiu's question.
Yun Xiufei climbed up the tree and sat across from Ye Ying. He raised his hand and touched his head affectionately. His voice was very soft and pleasant. Just listening to his gentle and elegant voice made all the gloom disappear.
"What are you thinking about, so absorbed in your thoughts?"
Ye Ying looked at Yun Xiu, and saw doting and concern in Yun Xiu's eyes.
His eldest brother has always been patient with him, and he has always been a well-behaved, sensible and good younger brother when facing him.
But this time, in order not to lose his eldest brother, he had no choice but to lie.
Ye Ying forced herself to calm down and said with a smile:
"Father and Luoxi City went to the formation eye, and they must not have come back yet."
After saying that, Ye Ying's heart felt heavy. The feeling of deceiving his elder brother was like a huge stone weighing on his heart, making his heart feel so heavy every time it beat.
The guilt made him dare not face Yun Xiu.
Will the eldest brother find out that he lied? Probably not. He killed the Fox King in an instant and left no trace. The eldest brother was still sleeping at that time, so the eldest brother would definitely not be able to find out.
Ye Ying has been doing some mental construction for himself, but even so, it can't relieve his nervous and twitching heart.
Time seemed to slow down ten times, and every second was torture for the night baby.
Until he saw Yun Xiu smiling, the strength of his hands increased, and he rubbed his hair vigorously.
"Brother is sleepy. It's a big deal if his eyes are loose. Father will definitely not come back so soon."
Seeing that Yunxiu had no suspicion, Yeying breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he felt even deeper.
He felt that he was a complete bastard, no wonder people in Qingqiu said he was a cheap person.
The eldest brother was very kind to him, but he deceived him with lies.
Ye Ying suddenly didn't want to lie anymore. He wanted to tell the truth about killing the Fox King and confess to Yun Xiu.
But he didn't dare. He was afraid that Yunxiu would be disappointed in him, and that his only light would look down on him like others.
The struggle only lasted a moment. Ye Ying hid his emotions and asked:
"How is brother's health?"
Yun Xiu smiled and said, "Brother, it's okay. My body always recovers very quickly."
Ye Ying smiled, his elder brother was so easy to deceive, and his body recovered quickly because he passed on all his magic to his elder brother.
His own life is so cheap, no matter how hard he tries, he can't die.
The two of them were silent for a while, and Ye Ying was uneasy. He was afraid that his elder brother would find something strange about him, and he was also afraid that he would find the bones buried under the locust tree.
In the eldest brother's heart, he is a simple younger brother who needs care and is a pitiful little boy who is bullied.
But only he himself knew that those who bullied him in public were killed by him and used as fertilizer.
Ye Ying's mood is contradictory. He hopes that his eldest brother will spend more time with him, but he also hopes that his eldest brother will leave as soon as possible.
"Aying."
Ye Ying's heart beat suddenly: "What, what's wrong?"
Did the elder brother discover something?
In the midst of nervousness, he saw Yunxiu reproaching herself:
"It's all because eldest brother is useless. It's because eldest brother doesn't have the ability to make father like you more."
"In the eyes of big brother, Aying will always be the best and deserves to be loved by everyone."
Ye Ying's hands hidden in his wide sleeves were trembling. Yun Xiu's words reminded him of something he had overheard.
It is said that his mother did not tell King Fox when she learned that she was pregnant, because she knew that once she told King Fox, King Fox would not let her keep the child due to his character.
She hid, secretly gave birth to the child, and then returned to Qingqiu with him in her arms.
Instead of going to the Fox King, she ran to the Fox King's wife, the Fox Queen, and prayed to the Fox Queen to make the decision to keep their mother and son.
This kind of behavior is like a modern mistress running to show off her power in front of her real wife with her illegitimate child in her arms.
It would be unbearable for anyone, let alone the Fox Queen who is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people.
At that time, the queen fox was pregnant and about to give birth, but was stimulated by the night baby's mother to give birth prematurely.
Because the child in her belly had extraordinary qualities, it caused the Nine-Nine Heavenly Thunder Tribulation. If the Fox King were here, he would definitely resist the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation for the Fox Queen. Unfortunately, the Fox Queen was caught off guard by her premature birth. No one could foresee it in advance.
She did not survive the Nine-Nine Heavenly Thunder Tribulation, and she and the child in her belly were struck to death by lightning.
The Fox King arrived and became furious. He slapped Ye Ying's mother to death with one palm, and was about to slap Ye Ying to death, but was stopped by Yun Xiu.
I heard that Yunxiu said this at that time.
"He is just a newborn child. No matter how big a mistake his mother made, he should not be held responsible. He is innocent."
The Fox King refused to give up and insisted on beating Ye Ying to death. Yun Xiu tried his best to save him. That was also the first time Yun Xiu disobeyed his father and mocked:
"Didn't my father expect that she would get pregnant when he favored that woman? If he made a mistake, then you were the first one to make the mistake."
"The birth of this child was not something he could choose. It was the result of what you and that woman created together."
After Yunxiu finished speaking, she took Yeying and left.
Yun Xiu never mentioned these things to Ye Ying.
Ye Ying only knew that his mother was dead, and that he was a child who was not liked by the Fox King or the whole Qingqiu community. It was not until he overheard Qingqiu Fox talking behind his back that he realized that his life experience was so shady.
His mother killed his eldest brother's mother, but his eldest brother was able to raise him and protect him well. I'm afraid there will never be another kind-hearted person like Yun Xiu in the world.
Ye Ying's dependence on Yun Xiu is getting deeper and deeper. He can't live without Yun Xiu, but also feels that he is sorry for Yun Xiu's birth. He can only treat Yun Xiu twice as well and regard Yun Xiu as a being that is more important than his own life.
It seems that this is the only way to live a life in vain.
His mother made Yunxiu lose her mother, and he killed the Fox King himself, making Yunxiu lose his father.
Without their mother and son, Yunxiu would not have lost her parents.
Ye Ying stared at Yun Xiu's face, which was as white and flawless as the unattainable bright moon, her eyes blurred by tears.
"Brother, I'm not as good as you said. You are the only one worthy of being liked by everyone."
Yun Xiu was stunned for a moment, as the situation in his eyes changed, but it quickly disappeared. He was still the gentle and gentle Young Master Mo Shang.
Yun Xiu turned to look at the ruined bamboo house and said:
"A-Ying, do you want to stay in Big Brother's cave for a while?"
Yeying also looked at the bamboo house, hesitated for a moment, and refused.
"No."
"What's wrong?"
"..." Ye Ying hesitated for a moment and excused himself: "Father doesn't like me going to Qingqiu Mountain."
Yunxiu smiled and comforted: "Father is not here now, it doesn't matter."
Ye Ying shook his head: "He may come back at any time. If he finds out that I went to your place, he will cause trouble for you again."
Yunxiu no longer insisted and nodded with a smile.
His brother, in order to prevent him from discovering that his father was dead, finally learned to deceive him.
Yunxiu flew away from the tall and lush locust tree, the smile on her lips getting bigger and bigger.
