Preface Chapter 116 Black Puppet
No one knows where it came from, no one knows where it ended up, it just came for no reason, disappeared for no reason, as if it had been deliberately arranged.
When the man who had returned from another world saw a pool of blood on the ground and a girl who had long since stopped moving, he knelt down and sobbed sideways, pounding the ground helplessly, and howling at the heavens.
"Why? Why won't you let me go, why won't you let us go?"
That kind of despair was deeply imprinted in the eyes of the two of them.
Zhang Zheng and Xia Zhi hugged each other tighter, afraid of losing each other.
The image in front of him is still playing, the man is holding the girl's body, slowly walking into the house, walking through the underground passage, walking down the stairs, in front of an empty cave, he put the woman aside, and then began to use his hands in the air for a while, at this time, a cave appeared in front of him, the cave is ordinary, just like all the nature has planned, but slowly, it began to freeze, as far as the eye can see, there is a cold cold, and finally, the cave becomes what the two see, he picked up the girl behind him, slowly walked into the cave, and placed the girl on the stone table in the cave, then sat on the ground with his back against the stone table, his eyes full of despair and helplessness...... It's like a child who has lost his candy.
Xia Zhi even wanted to rush into the picture to comfort him, but when his hand touched those illusory figures, they all disappeared, as if they had never appeared.
It all started a few years ago.
Legend has it that after his death, the co-lord of heaven and earth appointed a child from his body as the administrator of the human dimension, he has infinite power, but before that, he must polish his humanity cleanly.
Such conditions do not seem to be fair to a child, and he has no ability to choose, but even so, he can only pick himself up as arranged by fate, and then go to meet a new life and accept a new destiny.
But the co-master of heaven and earth is worthy of being the co-master of heaven and earth, and the child he selected lived up to expectations and was very perfect for the future work.
In between, the remnants of the mind of the co-lord of heaven and earth are also disappearing little by little, and when the child completes another challenge, he lacks a consciousness, and when he completes everything, he will disappear completely, but in between, he falls in love with a girl, which is contrary to the curse he suffered at the beginning.
Helpless, sacrificing a person and becoming a person in the world, this is the choice he should make, in order to make that child die, death has become the necessary destination for that girl.
The co-lord of heaven and earth used what little thought he had left to transform into a giant beast and began to chase after the girl.
At that time, the girl didn't even know who the child was, and she didn't even know why the giant beast was chasing after her.
She had always been kind and innocent, and even hoped to be friends with the giant beast, but when its fangs stretched out to her again, she had no room for maneuver except to run helplessly.
The beast chased her for three days and three nights, and the child was assigned to do other things, and there was no way to protect her for the time being.
At the last moment, she seemed to have a premonition that she would disappear from this world forever, but he appeared.
In times of crisis, he appeared in front of her like a hero.
Suddenly, there was light in front of him, and he hovered above the beast's head, making some movements horizontally and vertically, and suddenly, the beast fell to the ground.
The light pierced her eyes, and when she opened her eyes again, it was already a hand, stretched out in front of her, as if it was magical, she couldn't help but put her hand up, but immediately, she noticed that it was unseemly, and quickly retracted her hand again, so back and forth, people couldn't help but laugh.
For her crampedness, for his cute appearance.
But he knew, so he took out the belt around his waist and motioned for her to stand up first.
This girl who has been guarding him for so many years, this time he really knows it, in fact, his heart is more nervous than the girl, but he will definitely not show it.
He knew what the god of war was going to do, and he knew that their end would always end tragically, but he still couldn't help but want to live with her.
He set up a brief maze in the tomb forest, built a wooden house in it, and brought the girl in.
Since then, they have lived together.
The girl who had taken 100 years to meet again, just like that, slept next to him again, and just looking at her closed eyebrows and eyes already made him happy, and there was no need to say anything more.
One night, he sighed, thinking back on the past, not knowing how long and in what month he would be able to be with the person he really loved without waiting.
For so many years, waiting, it seems to have become a habit, with a long wait to meet a short reunion, it seems to be a kind of torture, but also seems to be a reward, those eyes have been watching in the dark, waiting for him, waiting for him to be a little careless, he can tear his heart to the ground, he wants to cheer up to protect his lover, this time, he doesn't want to compromise anymore, his life is disappearing little by little, soon he will be able to completely lose control of himself, there is news from the institute, he will heal in a place these days, this is his golden opportunity, this time to go back, he will not let that curse control his life, for her, but also for himself。
Zou Zheng glanced at the girl again, raised his hand to help her change her dream, and reached out to tuck her hair.
The girl's snoring sounded slightly, and the corners of Zou Zheng's mouth also curved.
He whispered, "Soon, soon we will be together forever." ”
At this moment, he couldn't remember how long he had been waiting, that kind of time, there was no way to measure it with time.
Even if the flower on the other side is 100 years old, it has already grown all over the riverbank.
He had stood on the other side of the river, looking at everything bright red in front of him, crying helplessly.
He also rushed into the river desperately, and his feet were burned by the hot water, but he did not have the pain in his heart.
The deeper you think, the more unforgettable your memories become.
In this life, he has been waiting for too long, he thinks, as long as this time is successful, everything will be fine, everything will be fine.
Thinking of this, he resolutely turned around, picked up the coat beside the bed, opened the door, and walked out.
Before leaving, he glanced at the people in the house a few more times to make sure she was safe, and then reluctantly set off towards her destination.
In the eyes of the whole world, he is an unchallengeable existence, this messenger who manages the human dimension is the most immeasurable existence in heaven and earth, but who knows what is on the tip of his heart, but anyone touches it, it will make him disappear.
That kind of death is irreparable by the existence of the body.
Even if everything is still there, it is useless.
From the moment he met her, he had never won.
Therefore, when he looked at the girl lying in a pool of blood, silent, all the missions and destiny were a burden.
The burden on his shoulders cannot be dropped even if he falls, and he cannot be driven away.
What can be done to escape such a destiny?
Is it only true that you don't love her to save her from disaster?
At that moment, Zou Zheng had a tangible idea.
If there is another life, he will never look for her again, so let her spend her life in peace.
The god of war used the last remaining bit of his mind to transform into the giant beast, and in the end completely disappeared into the ancient tomb forest, Zou Zheng went to look for it, but did not find any trace of him, so far, he also concluded that he had completely disappeared.
I thought that because of this, he would not continue to bear the so-called destiny, but the truth is difficult.
When he met the girl again, he still lost.
Naturally, this is all later, and has nothing to do with what happened in the cave.
Besides, after the girl was placed in the ice cave by Zou Zheng, two years later, I don't know what method was used, and the girl woke up again.
The two lived in the house for the next 40 years, and finally Zou Zheng buried the girl with his own hands.
At this point, the house has become a secret place in the ancient tomb forest, little known.
Speaking of which, this can be regarded as a good ending, and since then, Zou Zheng thought that the curse on his body had completely dissipated and he no longer controlled his feelings.
Yumeng and his party listened to Zhang Zheng's story seriously, and at this time, she only had a little doubt in her heart.
According to what he said, this whole thing has nothing to do with the Xia family, but this is contrary to what he suspects.
The Xia family is engaged in the transportation of goods, and they have been in the ancient tomb forest all year round, how can they not know the secrets in this ancient tomb forest?
Besides, Xia Zhi's demise is also a painful blow to the Xia family, so under what conditions did they reach a real reconciliation with Zhang Zheng?
There must be other things in between, but this matter has nothing to do with Zou Zheng, and it doesn't seem to have anything to do with the whole thing, but Yumeng just faintly felt that there must be something wrong or missing.
Why did Zhang Zheng refuse to talk about it?
......
In the midst of Yumeng's trance, a voice suddenly came from outside the cave.
It's Sister You and Ah Wei, at this moment, Ah Wei is controlling his puppet, and Sister You has also grown two human faces, fighting a state, obviously, they mistook the strange man in front of them for the enemy, and the three of us were hostages.
Yumeng wanted to open his mouth to explain to them, but before he could say a word, he sensed that something was wrong.
If Ah Wei is impulsive, Sister You can't be impulsive.
The way they behaved at the moment only showed that they had met him before, and his face was definitely not as kind as it is now.
It is only when a person is attacked for the second time that he will show his fighting state without hesitation.
Yu Meng subconsciously took a step back, holding Xiao Lori and Huanyu behind him, "What have you done?" she questioned Zhang Zheng.
Huanyu and Little Lori are also alert.
But when he saw Zhang Zheng, his face sank, his head lowered and he didn't know what he was looking at, and suddenly he laughed again, took a long breath, and then continued, "I want you to save her!"
The voice was different from the previous pleading, more like a threat.
Yu Meng was a little stunned when he heard this, just before this, he was still in a completely different state, obviously, those kindnesses were pretended.
The reason why a thousand vines are called a thousand vines is that, on the one hand, he is also a thousand people.
Growing up under a variety of disguises, it is natural to be able to deceive people who are alert.
Looking back now, Yumeng didn't even know what he said, what scene he dealt with...... is real, just like being painted a cake invisibly, sweet or not, salty or not, it is up to her to decide.
Zhang Zheng clenched his fists, and his expression became even more angry, angry at everyone in front of him who was unmoved.
He suddenly put his hand in his mouth and whistled for no apparent reason.
The sound of the song is melodious and strange.
Everyone felt that there was movement all around, as if something was crawling, the sound was very rapid, menacing, getting closer and closer, and in an instant, before Yumeng could see their appearance clearly, he was already restrained with his hands and feet, unable to move, and the same was true for the rest of the office.
The black puppet, about two people tall, appears to be just a shadow, cloaked in robes, with fangs and nails up to 10 centimeters long.
I haven't seen it before, and I don't think I'll have a chance to see it in the future.
