Chapter 4: Being able to communicate is the best
Jiang He was soaked and leaning against the door with his back, his hair messy and stuck to the side of his face, holding the sword in his left hand and holding on to the door with his right hand, watching Xu Qing fall into silence.
She's not stupid, she just lacks awareness.
Although she didn't know if what Xu Qing said was true, or if the truth was mixed with lies, she could tell from the first glance that this person had no malicious intent.
I just usually go home and meet myself. Seeing that it is getting dark outside, I lend myself an umbrella and let myself go.
"Why help me?" she asked a second time.
Xu Qing scratched his head, this heroine is not easy to fool.
"To be honest... it's a bit novel. After all, this kind of thing is so magical. I-" Xu Qing made a gesture with his hand, "You should be able to understand it, right?... In this way, if I ran to your time and met you, you would
Wouldn’t it be amazing to meet a man from more than a thousand years later, and then..."
"If an inexplicable person appears, he can only be killed by the boss."
"..."
"..."
The air suddenly fell silent, a little embarrassed.
"Times are different, we can't kill people casually here, everyone is peace-loving." Xu Qing's back felt a little chilly, and he was once again confused about whether to keep her or not.
Keep it, it's too dangerous, don't keep it, it's a pity.
This is a living ancient man.
Continue to be silent for a while.
"I don't know how you got here. If you can find out the reason, you might be able to go back, but before that, you have to learn to live in this world - first of all, the first one is not to hurt others casually."
Xu Qing turned to look at the scrapped TV on the wall and added: "You can't destroy things casually."
After a pause, he reached out toward the door and made a gesture of invitation, "If I can, I want to help you. Or you can leave now... By the way, it's best not to hurt people outside. Officials are everywhere now."
Yes, and it’s very powerful.”
It was already dark outside, the rain was getting lighter, and the patter of rain came in from the window.
Jiang He looked up at the light bulb on the roof and pursed his lips in confusion.
She knows nothing about this place, and her clothes are different from everyone else's. She may not even be able to leave the city. If she leaves, she really doesn't know where to go.
Gugu...
My stomach growled twice more.
Xu Qing looked at her for a moment, then turned back to the sofa and picked up his cell phone, "If you agree, put down the sword and I will order some food for you. I will have it delivered to you."
To be honest, I am taking risks by taking you in, and it is a double risk. Not only do I have to prevent you from being discovered by others, but I also have to worry about any misunderstanding and you cut me off with a sword, so... do you understand? "
Jiang He thought for a moment, nodded slowly, glanced at the sword in his hand, paused for a moment and threw it aside.
Clang.
The solid iron sword fell to the ground and made a sound. Xu Qing's mouth slightly curved, and he turned around with his mobile phone and said: "What do you usually eat? You may not be used to the food here, let me see if you are familiar with it.
of."
"Hu Cake."
"..."
He thought for a while, shook his head and said: "Forget it, let me order some porridge and steamed buns for you - you are wet, you can take a shower first, and you can eat when you come out... Hey, do you know how to steam steam?
Dry clothes?”
Jiang He looked at him doubtfully, not understanding what he was talking about, "Where is the bath...?"
"This way."
Xu Qing didn't worry about her internal skills. Anyway, he had plenty of time later. He took her to the bathroom and turned on the light, saying: "There are many magical things in this world. Don't make a fuss. You always feel like someone is trying to harm you... At least I am."
It won’t harm you, don’t worry, watch this.”
He flipped the shower switch, and water spurted out from the shower head. Jiang He just stared at him in shock.
"To the left is hot water, to the right is cold water. Press it down to stop, and pull it up to release water. Come and try it."
Xu Qing gave her a brief lesson and let her operate it on her own. Fortunately, this ancient man had never seen it before and was not stupid. She had learned how to operate it just by watching him demonstrate it once, and she couldn't hide the curiosity on her face.
"This is for washing your hair... Press here and it will come out. When you apply it to your hair, there will be bubbles. It's normal. Just rinse the bubbles away. Then this is used to wash your body. Just put it on..."
Xu Qing taught the ancient friend he had just met to learn about the restroom, and casually explained how to use the toilet. Seeing her nodding, he consciously exited.
Scratching his head and sitting on the sofa, he looked back and saw that the lights were on but there was no sound of shower water. After thinking for a while, he returned to the bedroom, found his clothes from the closet and carried them over.
Jiang He was still standing there, with his clothes on, looking at Xu Qing who suddenly came in again, with a trace of vigilance in his eyes.
"There are no women's clothes at home, so I'll make do with them for now. I'll go out and buy two pieces for you tomorrow."
Xu Qing's heart skipped a beat. She was negligent and forgot that she didn't know how to lock the door.
Pretending to put the clothes aside as if nothing had happened, he held the door handle and said, "Come here and I will teach you how to lock the door."
Fortunately, Jiang He hadn't started to take off his clothes yet, otherwise blood would have been splattered on the spot.
After teaching Jiang He to lock the bathroom door, he exited again with a little fear. He sat on the sofa for a while and felt relieved when he heard the sound of running water in the bathroom.
I picked up an ancient person and she was a heroine...
Are you really not dreaming?
Xu Qing pinched his thigh hard, shook his head twice, walked over gently to pick up the sword from the ground, and slowly pulled it out.
The blade of the sword reflected a cold light, and there was still some dark brown dirt in the blood groove, with a hint of iron odor.
Real guy.
I have a chance to let the old man identify whether this thing is an antique...
…
…
When Jiang He came out, Xu Qing was writing something on the table in front of the sofa. She turned around and saw that her sword was still in place, but the TV on the wall had been taken off, and the diamond-shaped dart embedded in the middle of the TV
It was also taken down and placed in the corner of the table.
"what are you writing?"
"Um?"
Xu Qing turned around and saw Jiang He wearing his loose shirt and jeans. His hair was wet, with water droplets dripping from the ends of his hair. He looked a bit like a modern man.
"Here, let's sort out the problems that need to be solved at present." He shook the paper in his hand, "Are you literate?"
Jiang He took a closer look and said, "It's a little strange, it's hard to recognize."
"Oh, I'll summarize it after I finish writing it and tell it to you."
"This dress is also weird." She tugged at her collar awkwardly.
"She's quite pretty... Well, it's customary here. It's normal to praise someone for their good looks. You won't think of her as someone who's teasing someone or something obscene, right?"
"It's best not to say anything frivolous."
"good."
Xu Qing respects the ancient people's ideas, and even if she is asked to change them, she won't be able to change them for a while.
"There are slippers over there. Throw away your old... well, these straw sandals. I'll buy a new pair tomorrow."
Jiang He looked in the direction he pointed, looked down at his straw sandals, moved his toes in them twice, and went over to put on his slippers without saying anything.
Tuk-tuk-tuk.
The door to the room rang. Before Xu Qing could react, she had already ducked behind the door.
"Those who deliver food, don't be nervous."
Xu Qing stood up with comfort, feeling some inexplicable feeling in her heart.
The vigilance and cautious look of this girl is not much different from that of a homeless little wild cat.
He took the takeaway food from the crack in the door and placed it on the table one by one. He motioned to Jiang He.
"Eat."
Porridge, steamed buns, and a small plate of pickles.
Jiang He stood in front of the table and did not move his chopsticks immediately. He was silent for a while and suddenly said: "I remembered something the second master often said."
"What?" Xu Qing was curious.
"To show your courtesy for nothing is to be either an adulterer or a thief."
The two looked at each other for a moment, and Jiang He smiled.
"But you're a good person."
"certainly."
Xu Qing smiled back, "Fortunately you didn't draw your sword again."
"What will happen if I pull it out?"
"I don't know either."
Anyway, you can't beat him, but you can't stay any longer - after explaining so much, being able to communicate normally is the most basic thing, not being able to communicate is not okay.
