Chapter 41 Understanding
I don't know what kind of path Qian chose for me, and I don't know if I am sure that I will be able to complete this road smoothly, but since I don't have a choice, let's face it bravely.
I think that not everything in life can be decided by yourself, at least it is okay not to break the principles and not hurt nature, and as for your own safety, you can only resign yourself to fate. There are still many people in this world who have died in accidents, and I guess they didn't expect life to be so short.
"Hey~~~" I sighed: "Come back, it's quite late, as for where and when to go, you will notify me when you are ready~" After speaking, I walked to Yekui's side and touched its head, it turned around and ran into the dark grove and disappeared into the vast night.
"Where are you going so late?" Zhen looked at me with a blank expression.
"It doesn't matter... It's just that I'm too tired to toss, just find a place~ "I'm physically tired, and my heart is even more tired."
"Look at you! Where did you go with that promise just now? Before three minutes were up, it was like a deflated ball. ”
Zhen is not wrong at all, I just think too much, and often sometimes I drive myself into a dead end.
I barely managed to squeeze out a smile: "Hehe... I'm really tired, I've been rolling on the ground for so long. ”
"Okay, you, if you want to pretend, let you pretend again, dry! Then I'll take Zhang Yao away, and go to the old place to find me if you have something. ”
Qian looked up at us, didn't say anything more, and turned to leave.
At this time, there were only two people left in the grove, Zhen and me, and he patted me on the shoulder: "Don't worry too much, I'll figure it out." Come home with me, two days ago I asked Lian Ying to go over and clean up over there. ”
"Oh, okay." Now I can go anywhere as long as I have a place to sleep.
The neighborhood was not far from the school, and we soon arrived at the high-rise residential building. No one lived in it for a while, but the room was cleaner than before.
I looked down at my clothes that were covered with dirt, and I still couldn't bear to sit on the sofa: "Zhen, I'll go wash it first, or I'll blame me for staining the place he cleaned up." ”
Pan Zhen glanced at me up and down, grinned and said, "Go quickly~~ Don't take out your clothes, just throw them in the trash." ”
I didn't bother to pay attention to him, why should I throw away such a good dress if it wasn't broken? Shaking his head helplessly, he walked into the bathroom.
After rinsing my hair, I lay comfortably in the bathtub, holding my breath, submerging my head in the water, looking out through the water, not hearing any sound in my ears, although I couldn't breathe, I felt a state of isolation.
I wonder if those who drowned in the water ended up with the same experience as I have now, that I will leave this world forever, to another place where I have no relatives and friends, and who are completely strange, far from everything I once loved.
That's what I thought... Thinking about it... My head is getting heavier and my vision is getting blurry...
Yes!!! Sunlight!! It's glaring! Who is it?? Disturbed my dreams...
I lay on my stomach in the big soft bed, my head buried deep in the pillow, and I couldn't open my eyes because of the strong light.
Twisting his head to the other side, a familiar face was lying in front of me, so close~~ I seemed to be able to feel his exhalation blowing on my face.
"Ahh ————Ah!!hh Pan Zhen!! How do you sleep in the same bed with me!! I exclaimed, crawling up.
"Well~~ This is also what I want to ask." Lian Ying's voice came from the foot of the bed, and he said as he picked up his clothes and pants on the ground.
No, no, my mind is a little messy, what the hell is going on?
Pan Zhen also woke up after being yelled at by me, he pulled the quilt on his body with a little anger, turned to the other side, and said lazily: "Zhang Yao~ You owe me another life!" ~~ If I hadn't found out in time last night, you would have drowned in the bathtub. ”
"Huh? You mean I fell asleep in the bathtub? "I was amazed at how I could have done such a stupid thing.
Pan Zhen may also be sleepy, so he lifted the quilt and sat up: "Yes!" It took a lot of effort for you to move out, and you got me covered in water, and you slept like a pig! ”
Hearing Zhen say this, I also felt a little sorry for him: "That... Thank you... Sorry to bother you. ”
"Don't do anything stupid next time you know it's troublesome! Your life is given by me, you better use it leisurely! Saying that, Pan Zhen put on his pajamas, stepped on his slippers, and left the room with Lian Ying.
Hey... After all, I didn't expect that!
The cell phone on the bedside table lit up and there was no sound, but it showed that a call had come in.
I took it in my hand and looked at it, and it turned out to be Dongyang's number.
Without thinking about it, he answered: "Hey? ”
I only said one word, and there was a roar like a wild bomb on the other side: "Zhang Yao! What are you doing in the middle of the night? How many times have I called you, why don't you answer! ”
Who am I messing with this early morning? Why are they so fierce! The most hateful thing is that I haven't had the slightest room to refute it.
"I'm sorry, I didn't hear my phone when it was silent." I just kept apologizing, apologizing, and apologizing like an angry bag.
Dongyang may have heard my decadent voice, and his tone was calmer: "You're fine, where are you now?" I'll pick you up right away. ”
"I... Uhhhh Looking at his current state and the place he is, it seems that he can't tell him the truth: "Well~~ I'm at home, I missed my mother last night so I went home to live." ”
"You're home?" Dongyang's distrustful words came from the other end of the phone: "Didn't you just see your mother the day before yesterday?" ”
Oh! By the way, I forgot about it, but since the first half of the lie has been told, then the second half of what is said has to be returned.
"Ahh Oh, yes! It's because I saw it the day before yesterday that I miss her even more. ”
"Oh~~ Really? So when are you going to come back? ”
I was a little impatient, why was he more verbose than my mother: "What, I'm going to stay at home for a few days, next week!" Go back next week. ”
Dongyang was a little anxious when he heard my words: "Zhang Yao! Do you still want to graduate? Don't you know how many classes you've delayed? ”
"I know, it's all my own business~~ Don't worry about it, I'll hang up on nothing." He treats me like a son for a day, and I'm really fed up.
After turning off my phone, I leaned on the edge of the bed and thought, it doesn't matter if I don't go to this university, it doesn't matter how long I live, and what ideals I talk about in life.
"Zhang Yao, are you going to lie in bed for a day?" Lian Ying pushed open the door and walked in: "I brought you and Zhen breakfast, hurry up and eat." ”
"Oh~~" I put on my nightgown and walked out slowly.
Pan Zhen had already changed into civilian clothes and sat on the dining chair, holding the newspaper in one hand and reading it carefully, and holding a glass of milk in the other hand to take a sip from time to time.
I walked over to the table, picked up a slice of freshly baked bread, and sat down in the chair across from him.
"Ahem!" I deliberately made a move to get his attention.
But he just glanced up at me through the top edge of the newspaper.
"Pan Zhen, should you have something to explain to me?" I looked at him expectantly.
He turned sideways and shook the newspaper in his hand: "What's the matter?" ”
I'm so anxious about his attitude, doesn't he think he should explain to me the task he gave me?
"What's the matter? Of course it's a matter of taking that sword! What kind of array, what kind of picture, and where do I have to find this thing? ”
Pan Zhen looked up at me and put the newspaper in his hand on the table. sat up straight, without a trace of expression on his face: "Zhang Yao, it doesn't make sense for me to tell you what you asked, do you know why?" ”
I shook my head and looked at him.
"Because whether you say it or not, the result is the same, that is, if you go, you will die."
I raised my hand to interrupt him: "Whether I go or not is a matter of later, and I won't die if I listen to it now." ”
At this time, Lian Ying cleaned up the room and walked over and sat down next to me.
I looked at him and said, "What do you see me doing?" I want to hear it too. ”
"Don't you know any of these things?" I looked at him in amazement, I thought there should be no secrets between them, it turned out that there were things that Lian Ying had never heard of.
"Just kidding, that was sixty years ago, how could I possibly know?"
Oh~~ I nodded knowingly.
"Well, since you all want to hear it, I'll talk about it, but I don't know the details, because only two of the people who were involved in this matter are still alive now."
Listening to him say this, it means that there is one other person besides Qian, who has been to that place.
"Don't interject when I say it, and ask a question at the end, which is what I say in class." Saying that, Zhen put on a teacher's posture.
"Alright, alright, you can say it quickly, this is not a university lecture hall, don't sell it." I urged him impatiently.
"Whew! This is the beginning of a matter is about a sword, when Genghis Khan was at the height of his reign, he once got a sword called Qizong, but he never wore it, Ouyang Qian only found out the whereabouts of this sword sixty years ago, so he took a lot of people to Outer Mongolia, hoping to get it, and as a result..."
And he was blind for sixty years? So he went in his twenties. ”
Pan Zhen frowned: "How is it possible?" He was almost 180 years old when he went. ”
I rubbed myself up from my chair: "Holy! 180? How can it be? ”
Lian Ying dragged me next to me: "Sit down!" They age at a much slower rate than we average. ”
Oh~ Yes, yes, they weren't normal people in the first place, but can a person's body really last that long?
"That... So how long have you been like this now? I slowly re-energized myself back into my chair.
Zhen raised his head and thought for a moment: "It should be about 70 years, not counting the 18 years that the previous owner of this body grew." ”
I can't imagine that this guy in front of me looks like a man of about 35 years old, but he has been living like this for almost a century.
Forget it, don't worry about it, if it is according to his soul, then he should be the same age as the terracotta warriors and horses in Xi'an.
"How the hell are you blind?" I think it's still necessary to know the details and also prevent yourself from getting hurt.
"I don't know the specifics of this, so I have to ask the person who has participated in this matter, and listen to him himself say what kind of formation he has hit." Pan Zhen briefly introduced the outline of the matter, and it seems that I have to ask the details in person.
