Chapter 26: Residual Poison
Chapter 26: Residual Poison
The whole head hurts... My eyes were tired, I tried to open them but couldn't open them, I was stimulated by the light all the time, my body tried to turn over but was powerless, I felt like my whole body was being pressed down by a huge rock and I couldn't move.
The whole person just couldn't move, it was very uncomfortable.
But this feeling goes away quickly, because I tend to fall asleep again.Sometimes I hear some vague words in my sleep, and I don’t know if it has something to do with me, but I just ignore them lazily. After all, I’m tired and don’t want to deal with too many things.
Occasionally, I feel someone touching my body... but it seems that they are wiping me with a towel, or doing other things, although I don't know what it is, but I can be sure that it is definitely an ordinary touch, Instead of my usual interaction with Jing...
Ah, what about Jing?where is she nowI...should I get up too?Thinking about the time I woke up today, it seems to be longer and clearer than usual...
After working hard, I finally opened my eyes, moved my hands reluctantly, and felt a numb and hard feeling, like a stone.Not just the hands, but almost the whole body. Now that my physical strength has not recovered, I can only stare at the ceiling in a daze. For some reason, I have the idea that this room is very monotonous.
"Uh... big sister, are you awake?" I suddenly heard this very familiar call, and then saw a little boy sticking his head out to look at me, his beautiful silver eyes flashing doubts.
I remember correctly, he is Wu Qirui... Just as I was about to speak, but found that I was extremely thirsty, Wu Qirui immediately helped me up, then ran out of the room and brought a glass of water, Carefully feed me water.
After drinking the water, his body felt much more comfortable. Wu Qirui smiled happily: "This is holy water! After drinking it, you will not only refresh your mind, but also restore a lot of physical strength."
"Xiao Rui, thank you." After speaking, I was also startled, not because the voice sounded weak, but because it had a soft and beautiful feeling... It turns out that as long as a person is weak, the voice can become so gentle?
"No, big sister, it's good if you wake up! Because this room is mine, I can only sleep with... my brother for more than ten days when you sleep here." Xiao Rui smiled, and I was stunned. : "Actually, you can send me to the health room..."
"This is to prevent you from making any mistakes, so I talked to the chairman dozens of times before she agreed to let you stay here for treatment." Xiao Rui smiled again, and then pouted: "But the chairman said, If you wake up and make sure there is no problem, I will let you go back immediately.”
"Oh...it turns out." I nodded, looked out the window in a daze for a few seconds before asking, "Xiao Rui, who is your brother? I don't think I've even seen it." After finishing speaking, Wu Qirui smiled slightly. Said: "I have seen Luo."
"Ah?" Seeing my stupid face, he repeated again: "I've seen it." "But I haven't seen it..." He sighed and continued, "Your hair is silvery white, so your brother should be too. , but I haven’t seen any other boy with silver hair.” Unless his brother is alive and well, the inherited hair color gene is different from Xiao Rui’s.
After hearing this, Xiaorui smiled and poured me a glass of water: "I'm not related by blood, so you must not know that I have met you before." "Who is that?" I asked suspiciously, usually this question should be It's good to be curious, but at the moment I don't feel that emotion.
"En..." Xiao Rui poked his chin with his index finger, and said, "Niapoli and Opalia, you must know who they are." Yes, but Xiao Rui pondered for a moment: "No, or it's not right."
"Then what is it..." I asked, Xiao Rui smiled at me, and then pointed his right index finger to the sky: "That's just to lie to you, but I'm actually their father."
"What?" I felt like I was getting confused, Xiao Rui smiled deeply: "I am the current pope, and they are my children."
Looking at Xiaorui's smile, there is indeed a sense of mystery all the time. I always feel that I have seen it somewhere but I can't remember it... In this world, there are very few people with silver hair...or none, it is absolutely white. Or completely black, unless it is a priest who accepted everyone's blessing and became the pope.
I was immediately stunned. If Xiaorui was the pope, then the room where I am lying now... No wonder in my sleep, I would always feel a breath similar to Jing, but softer and warmer than Jing, no, No... Isn't the Pope supposed to be a middle-aged man?But Xiao Rui's appearance is only in his teens...
Hmm... ahhhh - I forgot, very completely!I heard that the current pope likes to change his appearance, usually between the ages of ten and 25——
The silver hair, appearance, and smile all fit the rumors perfectly!
"Little, Pope, you..." To be honest, I didn't know what to ask, I saw the Pope smiling but still maintaining the child's face: "After all, you know where this child Jing is... If possible, we I really hope that she can return to the temple."
"Why... I should say I don't understand. After all, she has her own right to choose! If she wants to go back, she would have contacted you a long time ago, right?" When she heard that she was looking for Jing, her heart was burning with rage. Trying to suppress her displeasure, Xiao Rui—the Pope just smiled wryly: "After all, there are other things. If she can contact us by herself, she will definitely kill herself."
Well?other?Are you referring to... royal matters?
The Pope... I'm still used to calling him Xiaorui, otherwise it would be so easy to get confused!
Xiao Rui ignored me, and instead said to himself: "There is only one Pope, and five priests. These five were selected and brought up by the Pope himself. For us, they are family, It is also the only family member. Although he has no blood relationship, for the pope, he is used to being surrounded by five children, and for children, he is used to being accompanied by a parent and four brothers and sisters. No matter who they are, Both are indispensable.”
"No matter who it is... This kind of thing is an unchangeable fact for believers and citizens of Montara. Everyone is used to having a pope and five priests, and everyone is used to going to the temple to pray at the end of the month. , there are five priests around us instead of four, everyone is used to it, not just me, not just children, but the whole country.”
Xiao Rui looked out of the window and said briskly, his eyes were a little dim, and his smile even disappeared... Like a child full of panic about the future, he has that kind of anxiety and sadness, but he can only feel helplessly bored in his heart, unable to vent .
"It's not just us... the citizens of Montara, all want to see her again... I miss her praying for people, and I miss her kneeling and praying in front of the statue... I'm used to it, her image You Sangshen has a personality, and a heart that is cold on the outside and warm on the inside. If the missing priest is not her but someone else, we will definitely send someone to look for it immediately. Losing a priest is a very serious matter for the country.”
I nodded, Xiaorui sniffed her nose, and her voice was a bit sobbing: "I'm really worried about that child... After all, something like this happened to her before, and I'm afraid it will happen again. No matter what, I must be sure. Only by protecting her, this is the oath I made to God.”
Xiao Rui didn't speak after finishing speaking, watching him keep trying to wipe away his tears, I felt an indescribable sadness in my heart, and asked in a low voice: "What's the matter..."
He turned to look at me, hesitated for a few seconds and then said, "That child was raped before."
