Chapter II
One night of moonlight, one night of autumn coolness. In the morning I got out of bed and walked to the washstand, washing my face. In the mirror, my skin was rough and thin, and only my eyes still had a little lightβa little bit of a remnant of my self that had not yet been erased.
Bearing the discomfort, I went to the breakfast shop under the hotel and bought some soy milk steamed buns. Actually, I don't have much appetite right now, and alcohol tortures my head. But even if I'm pretending to be in good shape, I'll have to pretend to be a little bit like that. I don't want him to give up on me because of my haggard appearance after a hangover.
On the way to that location, I kept imagining the identity of this "parallel space". With so much gold and mystery, who is he? Is it the director of a new reality show who treats me as one lucky koi in a thousand miles? Or is it that a mysterious alien arrives and picks me as an experiment? It can't be my long-lost grandfather who comes back from Taiwan and pats me on the shoulder and says, "Grandpa has laid a thousand miles for you in Taiwan." β
The more I thought about it, the more nonsense I became, and I stopped thinking about it and went to that place in silence. In fact, in my heart, I still know that there is no white pie in the world, and there must be a reason why he came to me. When I think about this, I already have an answer in my heart, an answer that I don't want to see.
After a few trains, I arrived at the agreed place. In the bustling city of SH, it is not easy to find such a secluded place. I've looked it up on the Internet, and I've found a lot of posts about paranormal events.
I'm not a superstitious person, but I'm timid, so I dare to come here during the day.
The leaves here are yellowed, and there are young leaves inside. Red maple leaves slide down from the depths of the forest, stacked on top of each other. I sat on the ground, rubbing my temples, smelling the scent of every wood fiber here, and my condition improved.
He didn't show up until about half past eleven. He looks about 1.85 meters and looks very decent. His jaw angle is very bony and his nose is very high, giving him a very masculine visual sense. But his eyes are very soft, double eyelids. These eyes gave his countenance a touch of femininity. Well, it's a handsome guy.
"Are you a parallel space?" I didn't have any worries, and I asked directly as he walked over.
"It's me. His eyes immediately fluctuated. He quickened his pace to my side.
"Brother, what do you want me to help with? I can do it, but I'm a straight man and likes women, so if that's the case, forget it. "I like to talk bad when I'm nervous.
He obviously didn't expect me to say this, and a pair of eyes first showed surprise, followed by a little anger, and then he quickly suppressed it.
I found out that he hated this kind of ridicule, so I immediately changed the topic:
"You give me money, you always ask me to do things. β
He nodded, waved at me, and motioned for me to walk. I thought he was going to take me somewhere, but he walked respectfully beside me. I didn't react at once, but I saw him motioning for me to continue. I didn't ask any more questions, just walked casually.
After walking for a long time, I secretly glanced at him and found that the corners of his eyes were slightly red, and he was actually crying. Why do you cry? I really don't understand, I just wanted to speak, but he did.
"Do you believe in alternate planes?"
Again, I don't know why he's obsessed with this strange question. But I could only hold back the doubts in my heart and replied:
"I believe it. β
"Really?" his eyes immediately changed.
"Do you mean to say that we have met on alternate planes. There, you followed me like this, and the man in the painting was me in another parallel time and space. I frowned.
"Yes. He said immediately.
I didn't expect him to admit it so readily, I didn't know how to pick up the stubble all of a sudden, thought about it, and then threw out a question:
"What about the woman?"
"That's the person you love the most. He blurted out this sentence, and only then did he realize that he had lost his words.
"The person I love the most?" He wants to talk about me in a parallel time and space. This man speaks strangely and extraordinarily...... What the hell is going on? Could it be that he's a psychopath?
"Childe doesn't need to think about it, if he can, Wei Cha is willing to solve Childe's doubts. He saw that I didn't speak, and continued.
Call me Childe...... No, is this guy living in ancient times? The Qing Dynasty is dead, wake up. I'm now convinced that he has a mental problem, and he is probably still a rich kid. That's why he's so rich and he's going to help me. But whether it was for money or to prevent him from going crazy, I decided to accompany him to act.
"How do you solve the puzzle?" I spoke in a deep tone, and I was serious on the surface, but in fact the whole person was in a state of confusion.
"The man in the painting is named Fuchanoy. The woman in the painting is my half-sister, Wei Lengluo. In that parallel time and space, technology and ancient rites coexisted, and the antiquity of China coexisted with the technology of the new era. Cheongsam, Hanfu, is still a must-have dress in China. In that parallel time and space, Fucha Ino created the first rouge factory in China. In that parallel time and space, my sister Wei Lengluo and Fucha Ino fell in love, but this marriage was stripped of happiness by the invisible hand of fate. Now, Fuchanoi is unconscious, and Wei Lengluo's whereabouts are unknown. β
His voice was sad, and I began to have a vague belief that his emotions were real. But I'm still very sober and don't believe the story in his words, just acting for him.
"What do you need me to do? How did you get here?"
"I used the jade seal of the Chinese emperor as an introduction and took the ghost train to come here. And you have to go with me to that parallel time and space, find Wei Lengluo, and protect you in another parallel space. He said.
What is it? The Jade Seal of the Chinese Emperor, the Ghost Train, is it making a movie or writing a novel?
"Brother, the more you talk, the more mysterious it becomes. "I'm starting to panic.
"Don't you believe me? I can give you a reward of a million at once, and come with me. "There is no doubt about what he said, and I don't know if it was because of the magic of his words, or because of the huge amount of a million he mentioned, and I sent the gods to follow him.
"This is the ghost train. β
He snapped his fingers, and a strange scene appeared before my eyes. In the sky above the city, an old Soviet steam train inexplicably appeared. It hovered above the land, and the people around it were invisible.
I froze in place, my eyes searching for a flaw in it, proving that it was just a trick. But after trying for a long time, I found that this train was so realistic that every rust spot on it was clearly visible.
"Would you like to come with me?" he asked, as if tortured. To be honest, at this time I was cowardly, I really have never encountered such a situation, this is no longer what my worldview can accommodate. I just want to run away now, but the huge amount of a million has fixed me here. I didn't give an answer, so I stood silently.
"Two million, if you agree, I will send the money to your account immediately. β
"Three million. "What I said scared the hell out of me. But there was a hint of desolation in his eyes.
"Yes, but I want you to know that you are far from being a person who works for money. β
He took out his mobile phone, it was the latest iphoneX, I didn't know much about the phone, only that this phone could buy all my belongings three days ago.
But now I'm also a millionaire, and for the sake of these three million, I did it in the mountains and the sea. The text message on my mobile phone reminded me that my bank card had arrived at 3 million, and I looked at the text message as if I was looking at my own deed of sale. I looked him in the eye and knew that I couldn't have been good with such a large sum of money.
"Without further ado, let's go. β
"Now, but I haven't taken a martial arts class yet. β
"Martial arts classes aren't for you to learn now. "He picked me up. I never knew he was so powerful, and with a single force, he opened the rusty car door.
I saw him drop me on a dusty seat and sit down next to me. My consciousness suddenly began to blur. I was starting to feel wrong, but I was about to fall asleep. Before I fell asleep, I looked at his still awake face, and knew that I had been deceived, but I didn't have the strength to do it. I panicked all of a sudden, and it felt like everything wasn't that simple.
That's when I heard his voice:
"I'm sorry I lied to you, you in that parallel time and space have passed away. My sister went with her. I'm coming to you this time just to show you some of his memories and hope you can cheer you up. β
My consciousness was blurred and I sank into the ocean of darkness.
