Chapter 11: Embarking on a journey

"This is your first collection, and it will be your strange animal in the future, your father and I are old, and my brain is not bright, and there will be no more danger in this Jingxian County in the future, just let it help you, you can survive the torture of acid and acid, and I can also admit you." Dad, I will never take half a step out of Jingxian again, and I will protect every grass and tree here for you for the rest of my life. ”

"Cheng, it's not your fault either, the recent mutation ......" Zhang Yue's mother, Liu Xiaozhu, comforted Zhang Cheng.

"Understood, Dad, I thought about it all afternoon, and decided to go out and have a look, and by the way, I will investigate the vision of the mountains and seas for you. Zhang Yue said expressionlessly.

"What? You've just been sober for a long time, this can't be done!" Zhang Wen interrupted Zhang Yue.

"No need, I also have a strange thing made of 'acid and' now, and even if I can't perform thaumaturgy, I will try to protect others, so you don't have to worry about me. He turned back to his room in a frustrated manner, not knowing what he was tidying up. However, on the first page of Strange Things, there may be some people's names written on them, at least one girl's name.

After dinner, Zhang Yue hesitated in the bedroom. In fact, he also thought about this step for a long time.

Even now, I can't wait for anyone. If it is said that his father's wrong decision caused Jingshan's unpeace, but his father is not malicious. If it is said that the emergence of acid and makes Jingxian fall into such a predicament, but acid and it is just a strange animal, the biggest difference between strange animals and people is that they are more natural than rational, and human thinking can defeat nature.

In the final analysis, if it weren't for the occurrence of various deviant phenomena in Shanhai and China, it would not have caused this series of tragedies. I can't blame anyone, if I have to blame anyone, it is better to blame myself for not being able to save anyone, but it has become a tool for strange animals to harm people.

The more I thought about it, the heavier the resentment and guilt became, as if I was to blame for all this incompetence.

"I can't think about it anymore, instead of being so entangled, it is imperative to leave here tomorrow, take over my father's work, and investigate all the visions that have arisen in the country. Zhang Yue silently encouraged himself, but he inexplicably thought that his current self was like "Ah Q spirit", but Zhang Yue didn't know what "Ah Q" was, but he felt that he was inexplicable.

"Brother, are you okay?" a gentle voice came from outside the window.

Zhang Yue came back to her senses, got up and opened the door: "Sister Wenwen, I'm fine, I'm just packing up, don't worry." ”

"My sister is incompetent, and it's too late to find out about the affairs of my family, and no one can save ......"

"Sister Wenwen, it's not your fault, it's no one's fault. Although Daddy made the wrong decision to let the witches perform the sacrifice early, it was also a last resort, and now that Daddy said that he would not leave here again, then this recent vision must be resolved. ”

"Yueyue, our family surnamed Zhang has been a collector since a few generations ago, but it is not my father who guards the water and soil. Daddy's grandfather's generation, they still wandered around the eight wildernesses and nine states, until our grandfather's time, it was not spread that the name of 'North Zhang and South Qi, mountains and seas', presumably other collectors have their own actions. To be honest, you are still too young, sour and disguised as you, although you have your memory but not your knowledge, you do deserve to be recognized by your father, but we still don't worry about you alone, especially ......"

"Sister, you don't have to say more, I'm in my early twenties, not the age to be protected by you anymore, didn't my father already follow his grandfather to the north and south for several years at this age?"

"Well, I can't persuade you, protect yourself. Take the acid out and I'll do you a small favor. ”

Zhang Yue didn't know what his sister wanted to do, so she took out the strange book of acid and transformation in confusion.

I saw Zhang Wen take out a copy of "Haishan Lu" from his waist, perform thaumaturgy with his left hand, and hold the two books tightly together with his right hand. With a flash of red light, Zhang Wen took the acid and opened it to take a look, and he could vaguely see the original text of "Haishan Lu" from each page.

"What is this?"

"My sister is a few years older than you, but she has not been able to inherit the bloodline of the Zhang family's unique thaumaturgy, so she can only help you get here. This is the "Sea and Mountain Record" catalogue book made by Daddy and I together with some other collectors, and now it is printed in the acid and, this thaumaturgy will maintain the acid and the original appearance, when you want to look up the "Sea and Mountain Record", as long as you think about it, these vague words and maps will be printed on the page, and some maps we have made over the years are also attached, although it is not complete, but it is much more convenient than those text versions of "Sea and Mountain Records", at least it can ensure that you do not get lost. My sister is just this bit of thaumaturgy, I hope you don't blame your sister for being incompetent. ”

"Sister Wenwen, don't blame yourself," Zhang Yue felt that Sister Wenwen had actually tried her best, but she didn't want her to feel guilty, "I don't blame anyone, I will work hard to study "Haishan Lu" while investigating the recent strange phenomena clearly, besides, my father knows so many people, even if he doesn't go out of Jingxian, he can get my news, you and your parents can rest assured, I won't force myself." ”

"Okay, then I'll go. Zhang Wen still hadn't recovered from the emotions of the past few days, so he closed the door and went back to his bedroom.

There was nothing to say all night, and in the early morning of the second day, the family bid farewell to Zhang Yue at the door.

"Yueyue, my mother supports you the most, although my mother doesn't know anything, but she has also taught you some ways to protect yourself over the years, boys should go out, let it go, you can come back to see us when you are tired. Zhang Yue's mother seemed to recover quickly, and such a hearty smile gave Zhang Yue a lot of encouragement.

"No problem, Mom, believe me, hahaha!" Zhang Yue also recovered a lot after a night's rest, and when he heard that his mother supported him, he also had the courage to start this arduous journey from the bottom of his heart.

"Brother, I ......" Zhang Wen was still so worried.

"Okay, okay, sister, why don't you inherit your mother's personality? The "Haishan Lu" you gave me is definitely the best farewell gift, don't make it look like I'm gone forever. ”

"It's just, your mom and I've never been like you. When Liu Xiaozhu heard this, he also felt that he should comfort Zhang Wen first. However, it is true that the younger brother is more like his mother, but the older sister is more like his father.

"Go ahead. ”

"Okay, Daddy. There seemed to be nothing to say between the father and son, but they both had a tacit understanding in their hearts. Who should protect what, the inheritance of father and son really begins from this moment.

The sun was just right, and the day before Zhang Yue embarked on her journey to become a collector of mountains and seas, everything in Jingxian County finally returned to peace.

Only the gold thread paved with gold sand is still a mystery.
