Capítulo 1809: Chapter 1809: Removing the False Face
Lun Yu awkwardly stood up, awkwardly wiping away the tears on his face.
But for some reason, those tears just kept flowing, no matter how he tried, he couldn’t dry them.
“Senior brother, Master suddenly died, I know you’re sad, but how can we make a coffin for him if you cry like this?”
“I… I just… I don’t know what’s going on, maybe it’s the mustard you bought irritating me.”
“I didn’t buy mustard, come on, stop crying, dig the hole!”
…
Jin Xuyao locked himself in the bamboo house alone, and it’s been three days.
Gu Youyou and Jin Zijin, after all, are not people of Tianhai Mountain Villa. After the villa returned governance to its people, they had long returned to Plum Blossom Valley.
But the son hasn’t figured it out yet, and they can’t just ignore it, so the daughter has to step up.
However, these three days, the daughter doesn’t seem to be doing well either, Jin Luoyin hasn’t seen her brother for three days.
“Don’t worry too much, he’s been wearing that mask for so long, taking it off won’t be easy. I saw him studying how to remove it, once he’s done, he’ll come out,” said Zhu Shiqing.
“But Jia Ren managed to take it off in one night without even replacing it with a new one. Why did you let Jia Ren leave? He didn’t even remove the fake mask from brother’s face.”
Zhu Shiqing sighed, “It’s the rule of their sect. If Jia Ren could help him take it off, would he need to struggle on his own?”
“So the reason I want him not to take it off is not that he can’t take it off, but because… he doesn’t want to.”
“Has he gone mad?” Zhu Shiqing sighed, “You’re overthinking it, I think you should give him more time.”
Inside the house, Jin Xuyao sat in front of a mirror with only the frame remaining.
The pain on his face was already gone. He had been sitting here for three days, yet lacked the courage to see his own face.
In the house, there was also a basin and a pot of water.
Actually, he had taken the mirror apart, he could even choose to pour the water out, and see in the basin.
But each time he picked up the pot, his heart would falter.
“Am I really? What if… it’s a face that everyone doesn’t expect, and we all got tricked by Fu Jian?” Who am I then?
He pulled at the corner of his mouth, then laughed, “No, no, things have to be resolved. No matter what, I should step out!”
“Yes, I’ll look first. If it’s true, I’ll stay. If not, if my real identity is their enemy… I’ll go far away, never to let them find me again!”
The person in the room talked to himself, living in his own world like a madman, while the person outside was about to kick the door down.
“Move aside, I have to go in today. It’s been three days, he hasn’t eaten a drop, are you going to starve him to death?”
Zhu Shiqing was startled, thinking there was some sense in that.
But he and Jin Xuyao had muddled through these years, neither liked each other, and each meeting felt like it might end in a fight.
He had never asked him for help before.
And just three days ago, Jin Xuyao asked him for a favor, which was to guard this door and not let anyone disturb him, saying he needed to change faces.
He had struggled for so long, finally willing to change faces, he was happy for him.
But Jin Luoyin is right too, three days, what if something really happened…
He looked at the exasperated Jin Luoyin, suddenly recalling a past deal between them.
