Volume 1: Seven Emotions Seven Emotions 3: Lin Feng Turtle Dragon [Birthmark]
"Why do you know these things?" Gan Wu asked in a trembling voice.
Looking at her forced composure, Haitang smiled and said, "We have our own methods. If you really have something to do, we might be able to really help. ”
Gan Wu lowered her head and was silent for a while, she raised her head and said slowly: "Thank you, I'll think about it." With that, she got up and walked slowly upstairs.
Watching her back disappear into the corner of the second floor, Xiao Yue sneered and laughed: "Brother, use the dream words shouted by others to bluff others, it's really yours." ”
"I'm not talking nonsense," Begonia smiled faintly, "as long as the result is good, right?" If she can come to the wine shop, it means that she is the one who is destined. ”
Gan Wu naturally couldn't hear these conversations of the people at the dinner table, and she had already returned to her room at this time.
Closing the door, she finally couldn't help it, lowered herself and retched.
She was a little disgusted, but she couldn't tell why she was feeling the way she was, and she didn't know what she was disgusted by—she just, it seemed instinctively.
Ganwu threw herself on the bed, the weather was very hot, and at this time she finally realized that after a few days of tossing, she was now covered in slimy sweat.
So she went to Xiaoyue again to ask where the bathroom was, thinking about taking a bath first, although there is a cloud in "The Book of Rites: Dowry": "Three days of bathing, five days of bathing", but at this time she obviously does not pay attention to these etiquette.
"Yo," Xiao Yue was practicing swords in the courtyard - but in Begonia's words, she was just holding the sword she had tricked from Yao Bai and poking the air indiscriminately - and when she saw Gan Wu walking out of the lobby, she said hello, "Why do you look a little listless?" ”
Gan Wu squeezed out a smile: "It's okay." ”
Xiao Yue frowned slightly: "That's good," she put down the sword in her hand, walked to Gan Wu's side and said, "Let's go together." ”
Gan Wu shook his head: "No need, I just came out to breathe, and I will go back to the room immediately." ”
With that, she turned around and walked into the lobby of the liquor store. Xiao Yue raised her eyebrows and continued to dance the sword.
The scorching sun overhead scorched the earth, and the scorching heat seemed to melt everything.
The woman staggered with a tired pace, the corners of her mouth already chapped slightly—and the rest of her facial features were still smooth skin.
She fell again and again, got up again and again and continued to move forward, and her already shabby clothes were scarred again.
I don't know where she came from, or where she's going—maybe she doesn't even know herself. She just walked forward, walking, walking across the meadows, through the woodland, across the stream.
She just walked like that.
The picture suddenly became dark, and at some point the line of sight was already covered in puffs of smoke.
A pungent smell came from the thick fog, and a loud noise was heard in the distance.
The smoke faded a little, and a house in a sea of fire appeared in front of him—and it was the same scene again, the half-cut man crawling outward, and finally buried in a ruin, only this time he shouted a few more words:
"Wan'er, go, go! Don't come here - let's go! ”
woke up suddenly, and was in a cold sweat again, Ganwu rubbed the corners of his sore eyes, but found that the corners of his eyes were already a little moist at some point.
Tilting his head to look out the window, the sky was already a little dark.
She took a deep breath, sat up, shook her aching head, and left the dream scene behind.
She walked downstairs, only to find that the lobby had been lit up, and it turned out that the old city was ready to go to Hangzhou.
The old city was also stunned when she saw Ganwu sweating profusely, but she quickly reacted and said, "Another nightmare? ”
Gan Wu nodded, seemingly a little embarrassed.
Old Cheng finally sorted out the things he wanted to bring, and said to Ganwu: "Ganwu, the Begonia brothers and sisters are very reliable, if you really have something, you can tell them." They helped me when I first arrived in Hangzhou, and I am now able to open my own restaurant thanks to them. ”
With that, she smiled at Gan Wu again and turned to leave.
Gan Wu gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind.
Instead of going back to her room, she found a seat in the lobby.
By the time Begonia went downstairs, about two quarters of an hour had passed.
"Ganwu, you're already up," Haitang saw Ganwu sitting in the lobby and said hello, "How did you sleep last night?" ”
Ganwu's lips moved, and he stopped talking.
"Say whatever you want." Seeing Ganwu's appearance, Begonia said.
Gan Wu struggled for a moment, and finally spoke: "I have something I want to ask you for help. ”
"What's the matter?" Begonia asked, walking over to Ganwu and sitting down.
"That dream I had," Gan Wu whispered, "I dream of two scenes every day. ”
"Dreaming of two identical scenes every day?"
"It's not similar," Gan Wu pondered his words, "let's start with one of them, I dream every day of a house that has collapsed in a sea of fire, and a man who is only half of his body left, and he is trying to crawl towards the door, but he always stops and shouts 'Wan'er run' outside the door, and then the dream will end." ”
"The first few times I heard the man shouting 'Wan'er run', but last night I heard a few more words - and another dream was of a woman with no facial features walking in the scorching sun, at first she left somewhere, and then fainted, and after waking up, she kept walking forward, and kept ......walking, and kept walking, and kept walking
As he spoke, Ganwu's voice gradually became quieter.
"It's better to say that every dream is a continuation of the previous one." Finally, Gan Wu said.
"That's ......," Begonia thought, "Do you know this Wan'er?" ”
Gan Wu shook his head: "My memory is very messy, I can't seem to remember a lot of things before, not only Wan'er, but also the woman with no facial features, I can't remember who she is." ”
"Could that woman with no facial features be yourself?" Begonia asked.
"No way," Gan Wu affirmed, "I thought so too, and although I can't remember some of them, I still remember my general experience." I have lived with my parents since I was a child, and since I came to Hangzhou, I have lived in that straw hut, and I have been selling baked cakes with my aunt every day. ”
As she spoke, she fell silent.
"What, did you think something was wrong?" Begonia asked.
After hesitating for a moment, Gan Wu slowly shook his head.
"You're hesitating." Begonia saw Ganwu's hesitation at a glance.
"Not really."
"Okay," Haitang said, "but what is certain is that Wan'er or that woman without facial features must have a lot to do with you." ”
"Brother," Xiao Yue's voice came from the corridor, and she was walking down the stairs quickly, "Ganwu, you are also there, is something wrong?" ”
Haitang looked at Ganwu, who nodded slightly, so Haitang pulled Xiaoyue to sit down, and told Xiaoyue what Ganwu had just said to him. After hearing this, Xiao Yue seemed to remember something, and said to Ganwu:
"When you first came to the wine shop, my brother told me to look for the straw hut you mentioned, and I found it, and at first there was nothing, but when I went back two days later, it had already been burned. Before, you said that you knew that you had to leave that straw shed, or even the farther away from Hangzhou City, the better, maybe because of the people who burned your straw shed, have you offended anyone? ”
Gan Wu shook his head.
"When you were in Hangzhou, did you just follow that lady to sell baked cakes every day?" Begonia asked again.
"Yes, I go to my mother's house early every day to help her make baked cakes, and then we go out, and in the evening I will go back before closing the city gate." Gan Wu said.
Haitang nodded when she heard this, looked at Xiao Yue, and asked Gan Wu again: "What does that lady look like, do you remember clearly?" ”
"I remember clearly."
"Okay, when Luo Luo comes down, you come to her to paint, and I'll go to Hangzhou with the girl to see if I can find that lady." Begonia said.
"Can you help me?" Gan Wu's tone was a little hesitant. "The current situation is," Xiao Yue said, "we don't know what happened to you, and you don't know it yourself." All you know is that you have to stay away from Hangzhou and have two strange dreams every day - we don't know anything else, we don't have any reason, and we don't know how we can help you, so we're not looking for clues. But don't worry, in the wine shop, absolutely no one will come to trouble you. ”
"I want to know what's going on with me......" Gan Wu listened, although she still hesitated, but she had to admit it, and she couldn't think of anything else.
Ruan Whale Luo has always been the last to wake up every day, and sometimes she doesn't wake up until noon, but today is okay, everyone didn't wait too long to hear her coming downstairs.
"Luo Luo, come and do me a favor," Xiao Yue shouted towards the stairs, "Come and paint a picture!" ”
Ruan Whale Luo was a little confused, and didn't seem to have woken up yet, so he staggered to the side of everyone and sat down: "What's the matter, what are you drawing?" ”
"Draw a portrait," replied Begonia, "Gan Wu said, you paint." ”
"Ah......" Ruan Whale Luo was stunned, "I don't know if I can draw it well." ”
"It's okay," Gan Wu said, brushing her hair, "just do your best." ”
"You have a scar on your elbow?"
Xiao Yue suddenly said, Ganwu has been wearing the clothes of the old city these days, the old city is taller than Ganwu, and Ganwu's body is too thin, and when he reached out to brush his hair, the sleeves slipped down and faded to the elbows.
Everyone looked and saw a lilac mark on her elbow.
"It's a birthmark." Gan Wu lowered his sleeves and smiled a little embarrassedly.
At noon, the sun is three poles.
Xiaoyue and Haitang had already taken Ruan Whaleluo's painting to Hangzhou, Ruan Whale Luo himself was also painting in the courtyard, and Gan Wu returned to his room.
Closing the door, she retched again, and with a pale face, she sat on the bed, lifted her sleeves to look at the "birthmark", and muttered to herself: "This doesn't make sense...... I must have forgotten an experience......"
What kind of birthmark is on her elbow, it is clearly a mark on the soldering iron!
Yesterday.
Gan Wu asked where the bathroom was, and came to the front room of the bathroom.
When she took off her shirt and looked at her emaciated body, she was shocked—not because of her emaciated body, but because of the horrible scars on her body.
From the chest down to the knees, it looked like it was full of marks of whipping, which was shocking.
In addition, both elbows, as well as both knees, have deep triangular scars.
For a moment she was a little stunned, she couldn't believe that this was her body, and then she was a little frightened, she had no impression of the scars on her body.
