The Wanderer Chapter 13 The New Wanderer and Hesitation
Business in the coffee shop is still tepid, and two of the three customers are rubbing the net, sitting bored behind the bar for the rest of their lives, rummaging through popular novels borrowed from the left and right.
The blacksmith was still nowhere to be seen, the store manager hadn't gotten up yet, the left and right and Tang Tang hadn't come, Ding Qing went out early in the morning and didn't even say hello. So Yu Sheng is now the only professional clerk in the coffee shop, but fortunately, the shop is idle, and the rest of his life is happy to have nothing to do.
The sudden ability experiment a few days ago finally came to an end, and the left and right and Tang Tang were not the kind of people who had a long nature, and after a while of interest, they never mentioned this stubble again.
Although the two men never mentioned it again, they had a serious time thinking about their experiences for the rest of their lives.
Yu Sheng had just experienced a series of blows and stepped on the train to start a new life, but on the train he met the Divine Beings he never dreamed of. He was then forcibly taken to the hospital and injected with the "Sky Lock", which is said to be able to make people lose part of their memories.
However, the "Heavenly Lock" used by the Near-God Army to cover up the secrets of the Yishen is obviously useless for the rest of his life, and the rest of his life not only remembers everything that happened, but also becomes a member of the Yishen himself.
What special thing happened to him for the rest of his life that made him transform into a god?
Yu Sheng himself didn't know, because when he tried to think about it that day, he suddenly realized that everything that had happened in the past few days seemed unique and special to him.
In the past few days, the rest of his life has often fallen into thinking, even though his two eyes are staring at the popular novels lent to him left and right, and his mind is turned upside down.
He would think about the real motivation to become a god, he would be full of doubts about his current situation, and at other times, he would think of what happened to his brother and mother for the rest of his life, and his heart would be desolate.
Just when the rest of his life was thinking wildly, with a pleasant wind chime, Ding Qing pushed the door and entered. Her long hair is shawl, her red lips stand out against the snow-white skin, a white shirt on the upper body, and a slim denim on the lower body, which makes her long legs more eye-catching.
The rest of my life was awakened by the wind chimes, and when I came back to my senses, I was attracted by the first thing I looked up, and I was only full of admiration in my heart......
It's really all legs......
Ding Qing came to Yu Sheng expressionlessly, but Yu Sheng stared at Ding Qing intently, completely unaware of what he was doing.
Ding Qing snorted coldly, but the other party did not respond to her reminder. Ding Qing had a headache, and casually threw the things in his hand on Yu Sheng's face.
Yu Sheng woke up from the fugue, and only then did he notice that Ding Qing was still carrying something in his hand, the bag was not heavy in his hand, it seemed to be a shoebox.
"What you are given, don't open it here," Ding Qing stopped the rest of his life who was about to take it out and admire it, "Go to your room, close the curtains, and try it." ”
Yu Sheng let out an "oh", turned around a little stiffly, his heart pounded, and the reveries in his mind poured out one after another.
What does Ding Qing mean, she buys me shoes, why do you buy me shoes, is this a gift from the newcomer or is there another hint?
The rest of his life took one step at a time, and walked upstairs lightly, he tried to pretend to be casual, but he still couldn't help but think crankily in his heart.
She really cared about me, for the rest of her life, but why did she have to be in the house to watch?
Isn't it shoes, the rest of my life stopped beating half a beat, it's underwear!?
Yu Sheng entered his room, gently pushed the door open, closed the curtains, this sudden thought made his heart beat a little, although Yu Sheng had been in a relationship, but only a limited number of times to hold hands and kiss.
In this regard, the rest of his life is not much stronger than a blank piece of paper, he couldn't figure out the girl's mind in the past, and he still can't figure it out now.
Yu Sheng looked in the mirror, reminded himself to take a deep breath, stay calm, and then prepare to take out the box in the bag with the reverence with which he opened his birthday present as a child.
The door was pushed open, and the store manager said "ah", "I heard a voice, you are really here, and I am about to look for you." Go, the blacksmith came back and went to his house. He glanced at the bag in Yu Sheng's hand, "A gift?"
Yu Sheng hurriedly put the bag down, his face red, "No, no." ”
The store manager smiled mysteriously, and finally didn't say anything more to make the rest of his life even more shy.
The blacksmith didn't know when he had returned, and Yu Sheng was surprised to find that although he sat at the bar every day, he didn't know anything about it.
However, although Yu Sheng was curious, he still couldn't help asking, he just quietly followed the store manager into the blacksmith's house, and then almost smoked out.
The blacksmith's dilapidated house was filled with smoke, and he was pleased with this, and smiled at the shopkeeper, who had expressed strong indignation and righteous accusations as soon as he entered the house.
"This is what a fairyland on earth looks like. The blacksmith said as he pressed the end of his cigarette into the ashtray, which was so full that it could barely accommodate the newcomers.
The blacksmith pushed the papers on the table to the store manager.
"Spider from there. ”
The store manager took it and opened it, and he didn't come over for the rest of his life, but from his position, he could probably see that in addition to the text, there were many photos in the document, and even half a page of newspaper clippings.
The blacksmith swept the full ashtray from the table to the side, and it fell right into the trash can next to the table, and then he took a new one out of the drawer, put it in its original place, and smiled contentedly, and when he looked up, he met the complicated eyes of the rest of his life.
"Ahem, the rest of my life," the blacksmith was a little embarrassed, "I've been on a business trip for the past few days, and I haven't seen you, how are you doing?"
Brush cups, grind beans, make coffee.
Yu Sheng rolled his eyes in his heart, and after getting acquainted with it, he was really a little too lazy to deal with the blacksmith who was in a state of having nothing to say.
"Hmm," Yu Sheng nodded, "It's okay." ”
"That's good," said the blacksmith, "if you need help, don't be polite, after all, we're already a family." ”
Family, Yu Sheng laughed in his heart, it was really good, during this time here, he had a rare warmth.
There is still a little bit of mustard in the bottom of the rest of his life, but this mustard has nothing to do with the group of people in front of him, but the unreal sense of his identity for the rest of his life.
For the rest of his life, he used to be a standard ordinary person, working with peace of mind and going to work normally, and his biggest anxiety was nothing more than his lover and his boss. In the past, he never imagined that he would one day become a rebel of the empire, even if this identity was due to some form of active or passive transformation.
Of course, the rest of his life can accept himself as a friend of this group of people, but it is still difficult for him to accept becoming a so-called god or wanderer.
These are two different feelings.
Of course, this also has something to do with the fact that he has never really participated in the activities of the Wanderer as a god, and because his pathetic ability to only occasionally spy on others is really not as cool as others.
The shopkeeper closed the papers, and the blacksmith looked over to him.
"How?" asked the blacksmith.
“…… This...... Are you sure?" the store manager took a long breath.
"Since the spider dares to show it to me," the blacksmith shrugged, "eight or nine is not far from ten." ”
The store manager nodded, "This ability is a bit interesting, and it is enough to change the tide of battle." ”
"If it's true, we want it, and the Near-God Army wants it more," said the blacksmith, "and it's up to whoever comes first." ”
The store manager nodded, "Inform everyone, pack up, and we'll leave in the afternoon." ”
The blacksmith stood up, "Everyone goes?"
"Everyone," the manager turned to Yu Sheng, "you come along." ”
Yu Sheng was stunned for a moment, but before he could speak, the blacksmith spoke first, "Yu Sheng's ability is still uncertain, will it be dangerous to take him over......"
"I know," the manager turned to the rest of his life, "you have a mask in that bag, right?"
"Aren't they shoes......" Yu Sheng was a little confused.
"It's a mask, and now that you're a part of us, you always need to see the battlefield of the gods," the store manager smiled and gave Yu Sheng a deep look, "What's more, your abilities may only awaken on the battlefield." ”
The rest of his life was completely stunned, and the blacksmith laughed.
Yu Sheng returned to his room, thought about it, and opened the box, and sure enough, there was a pure white mask lying quietly inside.
Holding it up in front of his eyes for the rest of his life, this mask seemed familiar, he couldn't see what material the mask was made of, it had no facial features on it, only the position of the eyes was exposed.
Yu Sheng turned the mask upside down, and on one side of the inside of the mask was a pocket microphone and a headset, and it seemed that the wanderers were connected through this when they acted.
Of course, Yu Sheng remembered this mask, he had seen it before, on the train, when Yu Sheng saw the Yishen for the first time, Yu Sheng couldn't forget the bright and moving face that was revealed after the mask fell, which he only saw in this life.
The rest of your life understands what it is, it's a symbol of the wanderer.
If he was still just a spectator in the world of the gods, with only one foot in the doorway and looking in, then wearing this mask meant that he truly became a part of the wanderer for the rest of his life, entering a new world in front of him that he was not ready to accept.
"Put it on. Ding Qing didn't know when she appeared outside the door of Yu Sheng, she was leaning against the door frame, staring at Yu Sheng with the eyes of those electric people.
Yu Sheng's face turned red again for no reason, but it quickly faded.
"Where did you buy it from?" Yu Sheng didn't respond positively, "Aren't you afraid that the Near-God Army will come to you according to the style of the mask?"
"This is made by a master himself," Ding Qing explained with rare patience, "There is no mark, the old man's son died at the hands of the Near-God Army, so she is happy to give us a little favor." What's more......" Ding Qing paused, "she has never seen us in real terms. ”
Yu Sheng smiled, hesitated for a moment, and slowly put the mask on his face.
"The microphone and headphones have already been set up for you," Ding Qing explained, "and the switch is outside the mask near your ear." ”
The rest of his life groped for the past according to Ding Qing's words, and sure enough, he found two small bumps.
"Found it. Yu Sheng replied, and then didn't know what to say.
The two of them were silent for a while, silent for a moment, and both sides were a little embarrassed.
"You're still hesitating. Ding Qing said softly, not a question.
Yu Sheng was told that he was breaking his heart, frowned, and smiled bitterly, "Is it so obvious?"
"Of course, except for the two children left and right and Tang Tang, everyone understands. Ding Qing smiled.
Yu Sheng took off the mask and threw it on the bed, stood quietly for a while, and suddenly sighed.
"I just felt that all this happened too suddenly," Yu Sheng sat down on the edge of the bed in a dejected manner, "More than a month ago, I was an ordinary person who had just quit my job, ready to come back to take care of my brother who was injured in an accident. But in the blink of an eye, I was the only one left alive in the family, and then within a few days, I suddenly became a supernatural that originally only existed in urban legends, and I had to fight against the entire empire. ”
Yu Sheng paused for a moment, trying to find the right words to describe, "You know, it's like there's a knife in the underworld, cutting me and my past in two, completely cutting off, I'm a little ...... It feels like ......."
"Some of my own hearts are suddenly hollowed out and stuffed into something else, and I can't accept it no matter what. Ding Qing left the door and came to Yu Sheng's side, "I understand, in fact, all of us understand." The store manager, the blacksmith and I, we all went from ordinary people with a complete life to suddenly become like this, as if there was nothing in the world that had anything to do with us, no home, no relatives. ”
Ding Qing looked at the mask, "That's why we call ourselves loiters." ”
She picked up the mask and handed it to Yu Sheng, "We are not enemies of the Empire, we just want to find justice for ourselves and find a way to survive." ”
Yu Sheng took the mask, "But I don't know if I can become a qualified god." ”
"There is no one who is not qualified to be a god, and a person who is a god is just an ability, just like a person who rides a bicycle, only fast and slow. Ding Qing said, "And all you have to do is let yourself continue to ride." ”
Yu Sheng put on his mask and looked up, and in the mirror, a new wanderer was facing him.
