Chapter 1: The Other Side of the Mountain

Children in the interior have seen flowing streams and turbulent rivers, but they have not seen the endless ocean, Ye Chen sometimes always thinks, what is on the other side of the mountain?

After the college entrance examination, Ye Chen applied for a university in a coastal city, and went to another country alone, accompanied by only the sound of "clang" along the way, and went to a line of tens of thousands of miles, under the bumps along the way.

After all, there is an end to the journey of thousands of miles, and Ye Chen came to this strange city.

Since I arrived early, after receiving the key from the dormitory uncle, after opening the dormitory door, it was empty, and a strange and unpleasant smell came to my face when the breeze blew.

After quickly tidying up his bed, it was already twilight, and fatigue hit, and it didn't take long for Ye Chen to fall asleep.

It was about the middle of the night, Ye Chen heard the sound of the door opening in a daze, and he didn't care about it at that time.

The next day.

At the beginning of the day, Ye Chen's sleepy eyes were worried, and after rubbing his eyes, he sat at the head of the bed, stretched out his arms, and sighed.

He glanced slightly at the bed, wanting to see if any roommate had come back last night, and what it was like.

When he looked closely, he found a girl sleeping in his bed, and he was speechless for a while, and he was stunned for a while.

Ye Chen quietly slipped out of bed and went to the water room to wash up briefly.

After making sure that he was sober enough, he walked around the corridor and saw all kinds of male classmates, and he was sure that he had not come to the wrong place, this was the boys' apartment.

Courageous, Ye Chen entered the dormitory again, and as soon as he opened the door, he found a woman wearing Lolita sitting on a chair looking at him curiously.

"Oh oh, you're my new roommate!"

Before Ye Chen could ask, the woman said with extremely gentle words, and said with a slight smile: "My name is Chen Yiran, I am fortunate to be happy!"

The person named Chen Yiran, after speaking, also stretched out a hand to Ye Chen to express his kindness.

Ye Chen paced over, took a closer look, and found that Chen Yiran had a raised Adam's apple on his neck, but only then did he have doubts in his heart.

This product is actually a man, and he secretly said in his heart: "Could it be that this is the legendary women's clothing boss?"

After a simple exchange, the other party also confessed that he was a women's clothing boss.

Ye Chen didn't know what to think, and suddenly said.

"Call me by name. ”

Chen Yiran was stunned for a while, but he still obeyed Ye Chen's wishes, and said in an extremely delicate voice, like a girl's voice: "Ye Chen?!"

The aftermath turned, and Ye Chen's ears turned back to Chen Yiran's unique voice for a long time.

For a while, a touch of crimson briefly appeared on Ye Chen's face, and then quietly passed away.

Chen Yiran stepped forward, raised his wrist, slowly touched Ye Chen's forehead, and after feeling the temperature in it, he tilted his head and said, "Ye Chen, are you okay?"

Just when Ye Chen didn't know how to answer, the lock of the dormitory door made a "click" sound, and the two looked up at the same time, holding their breath.

The door opened, and two burly men wearing vests and shorts suddenly met the eyes of the two, the muscles on their bodies looked very explosive, and the green tendons were bulging, like swimming dragons, and the two of them were like two small weak chickens in front of them.

When the two sturdy men saw the two, they couldn't stop the joy in their hearts, and rushed up with excitement, hugged each of them around their arms, and held them high.

For a while, the two of them were strangled out of breath.

The two were held in mid-air, unable to resist the arm strength of the two strong men.

"Oh oh, young roommate! In the evening we went to relax. ”

One of the men had excitement written on his face and jumped out of cheer.

......

After two brief introductions, one of them is called Zhou Qiang, and the other is called Bai Lin, and they are students at the same time, one department.

After tidying up the dormitory during the day, it also looks like a place to live, barely a place for people to live.

As the sun sets, the light gradually recedes, leaving only a trace of mist.

The black tide constantly laps against the shore, tirelessly, like an industrious old cow.

The reflection of the waning moon like a hook on the surface of the sea surging in the undercurrent, shattered and rounded.

Somewhere by the sea.

It was noisy, and a group of people were talking, laughing, drinking beer, and blowing cowhides, full of beautiful visions and fantasies for the future.

Several people sat around a table, ordered a few side dishes, and began the first dinner party in college life.

Bai Lin and Zhou Qiang went to the front desk to ask for a few bottles of wine, and then strode to their positions.

"Since you two can't drink alcohol, let's drink oolong tea!"

Zhou Shen handed out a wine glass filled with a brown liquid, and in terms of appearance, it was indeed the same color as oolong tea.

Bai Lin had a strange look on his face, and he didn't say anything.

Ye Chen and Chen Yiran looked at the two cups of "oolong tea" placed in front of the table with skeptical expressions, after all, this is not like a place with such a thing, where does oolong tea come from.

But after all, it was a good intention of a roommate, this is the time to enhance the other party's feelings, and at this time refusing to appear to be a bad identity.

After a short period of thought, Ye Chen and Chen Yiran each drank the oolong tea in their cups, but as soon as they got down, the two of them felt that something was wrong.

"What is this?!"

Ye Chen only felt a burst of heat in his throat, his whole body blood surged, his face was like a red apple, his expression looked extremely ugly, and he asked suspiciously: "Isn't this oolong tea!"

Chen Yiran, who was on his side, also agreed, and nodded like a chicken pecking rice.

Bai Lin and Zhou Qiang hooked their shoulders, took out two bottles from behind them, put them on the table upright, and said proudly like a spring breeze: "Vodka and whiskey are mixed together, isn't it oolong tea!!?"

The two only felt that their brains were groggy and dizzy at this time, and when they heard the explanations of the two, they knew that they had been fooled!

"Hurry up and find some mineral water, let the two of us sober up, we can't stand it!"

Ye Chen shook his head, kept his senses, and said to Bai Lin and Zhou Qiang, who were drinking "oolong tea".

Bai Lin drank the "oolong tea" in his cup, got up and left, went to the front desk again, and brought two wine glasses.

The inside is a clear liquid that looks incredibly clear.

"Now, you two mineral water, drink it quickly!"

Bai Lin glanced at the two young roommates who were overwhelmed by alcohol, and handed the cups in his hands to the two of them.

Seeing the "mineral water" was like seeing an oasis in the desert, Ye Chen and Chen Yiran hurriedly snatched the quilt from Bai Lin's hand.

After drinking it again, the two of them only felt that it was up for a while, this taste, where is the mineral water, this is clearly a very high degree of liquor.

Ye Chen and Chen Yiran smiled bitterly, knowing that they had been cheated by their roommates again.

Zhou Qiang looked more honest, and when he saw the two people who were about to get drunk and unconscious, he smiled slightly and said, "I'll get it for you?" ”

The two looked at Bai Lin with extremely resentful eyes, and then looked at Zhou Qiang with a smile, and the two expressions were in stark contrast.

It didn't take long for Zhou Qiang and Bai Lin to be the same, and they also walked over with two glasses, which were also clear liquids.

Zhou Qiang showed a simple smile, he simply looked too honest, yes, he was a little abnormal.

Ye Chen glanced slightly, and saw that the corners of Bai Lin's mouth were slightly raised, and he always felt a little strange.

"Bai Lin?"

"How?"

"Lend me a lighter!"

"You want to smoke?"

"Just lend me!"

Bai Lin took out a lighter from his trouser pocket, small and delicate.

Ye Chen snatched it and gently pressed the lighter on the glass cup filled with mineral water handed by Zhou Qiang.

A tiny flame rose, and Ye Chen slowly touched the flame on the lighter to the glass in front of him.

When the flame touched the mineral water, a faint blue flame appeared.

Ye Chen said with an aggrieved face: "! Zhou Qiang, seeing that you are honest and honest, it turns out that you also want to trap us." ”

When Chen Yiran saw this situation, he suddenly felt that his brain was blank, and he felt that he might have to drink all the wine for a lifetime today.

"Drink or not?!"

Zhou Qiang and Bai Lin's biceps contracted slightly, shaking their strong pectoral muscles, which was clearly saying, you have to drink it, and you have to drink it if you don't drink it.

The two were forced to continue drinking.

......

In the end, all four of them were too drunk to wake up, and they all lay drunk on the table, occasionally muttering something.

Slowly, the night was deep, and the surroundings became quieter and quieter, but in Ye Chende's consciousness, there was something talking to him.

It was an obscure word, an extremely old language, and he only felt a light in his mind, and he was in the dark, slowly pursuing that light.

Ye Chen, who couldn't tell the difference between reality and dream, slowly got up from his seat and left the restaurant alone, in the field of vision of outsiders, he seemed to be sleepwalking.

He walked down the stone steps and slowly walked towards the sea.

The sea breeze was blowing, and in front of it was an endless black tide that seemed to be buried with many unknown secrets.

Footprints were left on the soft sand, and Ye Chen walked towards the tide in a daze as if he was stunned.

The sea soaked his trouser legs, but he kept going, as if something was pulling him along.

Gradually, the water reached his knees......

Suddenly, a huge wave rushed towards the shore, and Ye Chen's whole person was soaked with seawater, which could be regarded as waking up in disguise!

The tide then receded.

He suddenly came to his senses, and after looking at his surroundings, he realized that he had somehow reached the beach, and was still wet by the cold and biting tide.

When I looked down, there seemed to be something buried in the sand under my feet, and it seemed to be a black sword hilt, like an ancient sword that had gone through the vicissitudes of time.

Driven by curiosity, he bent down to pull out this ancient sword and get a glimpse of its true face.
