Chapter Eighty-Four: Determination
After the sissy was gone, I just leaned there motionless, not even knowing what I was thinking.
"Faith ......"
"Of course I believe Mr. Yang's words......"
In front of me was Bu Cai's face, obviously he was about to die at that time, and he said to believe me. But he obviously believed the wrong person, and I couldn't rely on it at all.
If this were a TV series, according to the normal plot direction, I would have been resolute by now, running to Germany, going deep into the tiger's den, rescuing the two of them, and then we continued the previous journey, to the tomb, to the desert, and even to more dangerous places, to find answers.
But this is life, this is reality, I have no way to guarantee that I can save my life every time, and I have no way to accept that my companions fell one by one, lying at my feet drenched in blood.
Call me cowardly or cowardly, in short, I don't want to continue.
A month later, Xiao Xiao returned to Beijing to continue her business, and the sissy followed Gu Fei to Zhejiang. In this way, things seem to have returned to square one, and I continued to open a small shop and live a small life, and the lacquer box in the package and the dolls in the cloth bag were all pressed to the bottom of the box by me.
Only those scars remind me that in the past six months, I have not been dreaming.
I took out the jade Buddha from the bottom of the cliff that day and sent it to Gu Fei, this thing is here, except for the price that comes with it, it has no other value, and keeping it will only make me feel hot.
I thought that in this way, I would always live peacefully, but simply for the rest of my life, but it backfired, just like in the dark, there is a mysterious force that keeps pushing me deeper.
That day, as usual, I was lying on the counter, listening to the chatter of customers in the store, and I felt sleepy for a while, so I came in with a text message: I'm waiting for you.
At that time, the first reaction was that it was wrong, or it was someone's prank, and just wanted to throw the phone aside, the screen lit up again: You can't escape, Yang Yun.
I was agitated, suddenly sober, and stood up suddenly, goosebumps all over my body.
The chairs behind me were knocked down and made a loud noise, and the people in the store suddenly stopped at the previous movement, staring at me.
Who is he?!
Why do you call me Yang Yun......!
It was an unfamiliar number, I just wanted to call back, but I gave up again, and the aunt who came to check out looked at me suspiciously and glanced at my mobile phone: "Young man, did you quarrel with your girlfriend?" ”
I laughed awkwardly, and she continued, "Auntie sue you, this girl is just going to be coaxed, make a phone call, say sorry twice, and the coaxing will pass." ”
She kept talking, and I couldn't refute anything, so I had to settle the bill for her again and again, and I didn't forget to thank her before leaving.
One afternoon, my mind was full of those two text messages, and I couldn't give up, I had already said that I would quit, and everything was over, and I shouldn't think about those things anymore, but I felt very itchy.
After thinking about it, I sent a text message back to this number: Who are you?
I waited for five or six minutes and didn't reply, thinking that I was probably not ready to answer me.
When I came back from the shower, the phone was flashing, and I thought it was that person, who knew that it was the one who picked it up in Zhejiang: "Little white face!" ”
I rubbed my head and sat down, responding one by one, it was a sissy, listening to this voice, it seems that he and Gu Fei are living very well in this "two-person world".
But his next words made me jump: "Little white face, Xiaofei and I will go to Germany in two days, and I will ask you one last time, will you go?" ”
Going to Germany? Did you go to Germany to save Bu Chip and Wu Qianqian? Are they tired of living comfortably, or are they itchy skin? Do you have to go to death? I asked him to give the phone to Gu Fei.
"Gu Fei, you ......"
Before I could finish speaking, I was interrupted by him: "Lingyi, you don't need to say it, everyone knows in their hearts that the matter is not over at all, and ......" He paused, "That Pisces exquisite box is fake." ”
There was a "boom" in the head, fake?
Without waiting for me to reply, the other end of the phone was quiet for a while, and it was only after a long time that a voice came: "If you decide to quit, Hu Riyue and I will not force you." Even without you, we'd keep going...... As I said, I'm going to give my uncle an explanation. ”
Until the end, I didn't say a word, hesitated, hesitated, wavered......
Is the Pisces Exquisite Box fake? How can it be? Hiding in such a place, and there are many organs blocking it, how can it be a fake thing?
I suddenly remembered a photo from a long time ago, or Bu Chip showed me, the jade box was placed on the lotus platform, could it be that the real Pisces exquisite box?
I rummaged through the cabinets and found the photo I received, on the front of the photo, the man in the black cloak, secretly photographed in the dim and abandoned mansion, with a deformed body and a strange posture, and every time I saw it, I felt creepy.
On the other hand, the string of numbers, if I remember correctly, Bu Chip said, after this string of numbers is converted into latitude and longitude, it points to the uninhabited desert of Taklamakan , and it is inferred according to common sense that the person in this photo and the jade box in the other photo should be in Taklamakan .
Gu Fei ...... It's not going there, is it......
If you throw away the photo, you really can't escape? Yang Yun? Yang Lingyi? Expiation? Reincarnation? ……
One question mark after another appeared in my mind, and finally my thoughts were fixed on the previous two text messages, not to mention the second one, the content of the first one "I'm waiting for you", it was clearly like an agreement, I don't remember who I promised.
I smiled and shook my head...... Maybe what he was waiting for should be "Yang Yun" - my grandfather.
Jumped up and washed my face with cold water, I didn't know this person in the mirror, my eyes were full of vigilance and hesitation, the exposed skin was scars, the hair that had not been repaired for a long time was messily attached to my face, and the pale cyan stubble made me feel that I had "vicissitudes" again.
I can't remember what I was like half a year ago. What is the purpose of going through so much?
That dream? That painting? What are the four and five, the Warring States Canal Country? What hatred? What atonement? Why me?
But now, I can't take care of anything, I thought that if I stopped, they would stop and live an ordinary life in peace, but Gu Fei and the sissy insisted on going to Germany, and even the next thing would be to go to the desert, Bu Chip and Wu Qianqian were also uncertain, and the situation did not seem to have changed.
patted his face and tugged at the corner of his mouth at the man in the mirror, already having the answer in his heart.
I glanced at my phone, but there was still no movement. I went into the room and pulled out the package I brought out that day, the black lacquer box, a pair of dolls with Gu worms, were placed in front of me, I knew that this decision might make me doomed, but I had no choice.
