Chapter 2: The Destiny Star Falls to the Light and Leads to the Red Lotus
Zhou Yu breathed violently, and he was almost out of breath just now. It was only after a half ring that he came back to his senses, and screamed in his heart: "What kind of world?!" Oh my God! Bring me here to kill me alive! "This is a murder that is close at hand, and it happened casually in a private house. How did he figure it out?
It was about half an hour before he cowered behind the door, pulled the bronze door down, opened a gap, and looked out for a while. When he was sure that no one was there, he walked out, leaning against the wall and walking through a half-open doorway, which he gently pushed open, and saw that it was empty by the faint moonlight. He continued to walk against the wall, looking at the silent courtyard from time to time. He pushed open a door and listened to the sound of even breathing. The door was left completely open, and the person on the bed by the opposite wall was clearly the woman. The sound outside is really not loud, how can people who sleep better be woken up with the door closed. Zhou Yu was very entangled in his heart, whether he should slip away from this terrible thing and completely dissociate himself from this matter. Or wake up the woman and tell the story, lest you think that he did it.
Just as he was hesitating, in the darkness behind him, a silent hand suddenly grabbed his shoulder. He cried out in horror with his other hand and covered the lower half of his face with his other hand. The child's body was easily pulled to the back, and the hand holding his shoulder was released, and he quickly hugged his abdomen, and his whole body rose into the air. The picture in front of you is like a movie playing fast. After a while, it jumps up, it seems to be on the roof, and soon the scene switches to the alley. The footsteps of the hijacker were still so light as they held him.
It will quickly turn into a wooded area. After a little more rapid walking in the darkness of the woods, he stopped. The fear that Zhou Yu had just extinguished was revived, and all the skin nerves were paralyzed, and the whole person was frozen. He turned his back to the captor like a lamb to the slaughter.
"That kid was your substitute. So you listen to me well, remember every word I say. The man said in a low voice. Such words made Zhou Yu relax a lot, this was the voice of the man who shouted "infidel". He never let go of the big hand covering Zhou Yu's mouth.
"The Heavenly Variable Star is still there, and the Starfall Light just disappeared, and the Red Lotus Sect will definitely not be able to find your place. You don't understand what I'm saying, but at least you're safe for now. Your destiny star is the big star that has just appeared on the east side of the celestial pivot star of the Big Dipper. Remember, don't have children. Otherwise, at the same time as your child is born, the Starfall light will reappear, and you will be discovered by those who have star eyes. I can't estimate if we'll be able to get there before anyone else. ”
Zhou Yu was confused when he heard this, his brows twisted into pimples, and his "uh-huh" sound came from under the big hand. He was about to speak, and he wanted to ask, "Then why don't you take me to your lair now to protect me?" But the man didn't want to hear him.
"But you are the seed destined to fight the storms in troubled times, and the result is to die or enjoy your old age in peace, it depends on your creation."
Zhou Yu began to struggle, he really couldn't stand this man's self-talking, he had to say something, or ask something. His hands and feet struggled hard, but he was greeted by a hand knife aimed heavily at the back of his neck. He was knocked unconscious.
A high school college, glittering glass windows, neatly arranged window desks. Surrounded by loud sounds, it was a break from class. Two classmates who were not particularly good quarreled over one thing, and Tang Zhu, who was sitting at the desk, was very excited.
"Chiyou is a six-armed race, and this kind of thing has always been recorded in historical records!" Tang Zhu said.
Zhou Yu was lying on the table and acting very cold, but in fact, he was trying his best to make his voice heard, and he was fundamentally opposed to Tang Zhu's idea from the bottom of his heart.
"Dude, that's just a legend. It's weird to look at those classics. ”
"Legends? What was it like in ancient times, do you know? It's just that what we want to believe is believed, and what we don't want to believe is regarded as a legend, and this attitude towards the classics is a blasphemy. Tang Zhu said as he raised his right hand in a copy of the "History of the General Dynasty", which recorded many things about the dynasty, but because the content was too surprising, it was denied by the academic community.
"I've read so many ancient ......"
"You're just looking at it selectively, will you choose what I watch?" Tang Zhu immediately interrupted him and gushed endlessly. "There are some things that we have to verify, for example, in the Zhou Dynasty, there was a big red bird with six tails, which could breathe flames. During the Warring States period, there was a people with three eyes......"
This time it was Zhou Yu's turn to interrupt him. "Yes, yes, yes, I've heard it dozens of times. You also said that during the Han Dynasty, there were pillar insects and sandworms in Xiliang. During the Western Jin Dynasty, there was a thing of people eating people and people becoming monsters. In the Tang Dynasty, there was a kind of big beetle, which could give birth to something as sweet as honey on its back, and it could prolong its life if eaten. Oh...... And also...... The Yuan Dynasty, yes, this era is relatively close, there was a meteorite in the Yuan Dynasty, and the metal on it would explode when it encountered fire, leveling a city...... Well, what else ......"
Tang Zhu said proudly: "During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, there were snakes in the north, those snakes came from the ground, the villages were destroyed, and the cities were rioted. When the Sui Dynasty was first established, it hunted and killed silver-skinned wild boars, which were as hard as steel. During the Qin Dynasty, someone mistakenly ate the flesh and blood of a kind of wheel bird, and the body grew wings......"
"Enough!"
Zhou Yu took the case.
"How is this kind of thing possible, according to you, that any fantasy and fantasy becomes possible? The world is really messed up. ”
"But there are a lot of things that simply can't be confirmed. Why does the universe exist? Why are there living beings? Why are there black holes? Who created all things? Or who created the universe? ”
Zhou Yu was speechless, and he couldn't find a reason to refute it.
"So a lot of things don't be too arbitrary." Tang Zhu took a deep breath and said, "Perhaps, even if it is the universe, it is just one of several toys in the hands of a creator. This creator may have even created so-called gods to help him manage the universe, and the gods have created many wonderful planets and countless gods' subordinates...... You are now too closed in the same way that humanity completely resisted the fact that the earth is round. ”
Zhou Yu was impatient, he felt that he had to stop Tang Zhu from talking as soon as possible, otherwise his mood would become even worse.
"I know I've been arguing with you so much that I find myself wasting my time. Since everyone has their own opinions on some academics, it is really uncomfortable not to discuss them. None of us will accept each other. And, don't you think you're too ridiculous?! ”
He pointed at Tang Zhu.
"Don't you know what everyone in the class says about you? Lunatic? Fool? Study the classical monsters that no one looks at all day long! ”
Tang Zhu felt that he was thrown into the void in an instant, and the classmates around him who were talking to each other seemed to be secretly looking at him and criticizing him. Tang Zhu grabbed the blue-covered book in his hand and rushed out of the classroom.
The surrounding students began to smile evilly, and they all stared at Zhou Yu.
"You're the one who killed him! It's you! ”
"Haha, you really killed him!"
There was a blood-red surrounding. Zhou Yu tried his best to insist on his will and said, "It's not me!" Not me! I didn't say anything! ”
"It's not me!"
He woke up suddenly.
"Why is this thing again, is it retribution, so I was thrown to this place?"
That's what happened when he was in high school. On that day, Tang Zhu's family never saw him again. During the police investigation, it was found that Tang Zhu had been seen staying in the mountains and forests on the outskirts of the city. Since he was not heard from for a year, everyone then thought he had committed suicide. Because of this incident, Zhou Yu has always felt guilty, thinking that he hurt Tang Zhu's self-esteem-
"Crossing this kind of thing...... It was also Tang Zhu who brought it up at the beginning, and I laughed at it as a mess. But the question is ......"
At noon, under the cover of layers of dead leaves, Zhou Yu, who suddenly opened his eyes, felt that he was buried. He pushed the leaves away and sat up. Surrounded by a forest of cedar trees, the sun shining right through the leaves on the side of his face. He took a deep breath and stood up, no longer thinking about the dream. Because he came to the ancient world, he was more isolated from the troubles he left in the future world.
He touched his chest, his neck, looked at his hands, and he was sure he was intact. A faint, but alert, voice sounded from behind him, and he turned sharply, his mind flashing back to the horrific sight of the previous night.
"Bastard."
He saw the white rabbit that had slipped away quickly, and his heart was full of resentment. He walked to the brightest spot, and after a while he came out of the woods. What I saw was a grove of low houses. He was not taken out of the city. He was in a wooded area on the north side of the city, against the wall. He was sure that this was still the county seat of Jiuyuan. After walking south from the small road, he entered a street, and after several inquiries, he confirmed his judgment.
He didn't know how he had walked, but in a trance he came to a large road and saw a group of people gathered outside a house. His pupils fluttered uneasily, and his heart beat faster. Although it was night last night, he could still make out the exact location. This is the home of the kind woman yesterday. At this moment, the officials stood on either side of the door. He walked over with a heavy heart, trying to squeeze through the crowd to see what was going on, but there were so many onlookers that it seemed that such a big event could not be missed.
"Spread out!"
It was only when someone shouted that the people began to stand on both sides. Zhou Yu looked at the gate in the crowd, and a stretcher was carried out. He couldn't help but breathe in horror and covered his mouth. From the length of that figure was an adult, it must have been the woman. It should have been found that the celestial star was still there, so the thieves of the Red Lotus Sect went back to look for it, but unexpectedly they affected this woman again. The two lives weighed heavily on his body, and Zhou Yu's face turned pale.
A servant came out of the door crying, and reached over with one hand to take the hand that was revealing the white cover. He is the male protagonist of this family. He withdrew from the crowd and walked onto the road in a trance, his whole heart strangled by guilt. He wandered aimlessly for a day, and almost all the roads in the city were covered by him. As night fell, his weak legs, with his dry mouth and curled lips, went limp, and he threw himself forward.
"Murderer!"
He raised his head with a scream of rage, and slammed his fist to the ground, his pupils bloodshot and hatred brewing in his young body. The cold wind swept the dust in the face, "Phew! He spat out the impurities that blew into his mouth, got up, and leaned against the side of the door. Unexpectedly, this door panel couldn't get along with him, and it fell inward. The sound of "bang" startled everyone in the room. Zhou Yu hurriedly stood up and looked inside, there were two rows of books on the shelves inside, and one person was sitting at the table, reading by candlelight. This person should be in his fifties, twisting his beard in one hand and holding a book in the other, he was also stunned at the moment, and only said in a half-loud voice: "You little boy, where did you come from?" It's late at night, go back quickly. ”
Zhou Yu was stunned on the spot. This kind of riser style house should only be needed by the store. But looking at the situation in this old man's house, what kind of business is he doing? Some of the negative emotions just now were replaced by feelings of doubt.
The old man put down the scroll, removed the rattan wooden chair, walked over to him, and repeated what he had just said. Zhou Yu raised his head blankly and looked at the pair of concerned eyes. He didn't want to bother the others anymore, and when he was about to turn around, the old man grabbed his right arm.
The old man asked, "Where is the child, is it lost?" ”
Zhou Yu's stomach was rumbling at the moment, and he didn't know what to do. He looked back at the old man, gritted his teeth, and thought, "This person seems to be knowledgeable, so it's better to spend the night with him." If you leave tomorrow, it won't hurt him. He sighed and said lamentingly, "I don't know what I was knocked out of, and I don't know anything when I wake up." Uncle, have mercy on me. ”
When the old man heard this, he hurriedly came over, pulled him into the house, erected the door panel, and said, "Have you eaten the meal?" Zhou Yu hurriedly shook his head. The old man went into the house, and after a while, he brought a large bowl with three buns piled up in the bowl. The old man asked him to sit down at the table and said, "Eat." Zhou Yu was really hungry, and when he picked up one, he devoured it and almost choked. The old man poured him a bowl of water. He ate all three big buns in a short time. The old man smiled: "The amount of food is not small. ”
Zhou Yu took a sip of water, put the bowl down, and said, "Thank you for your hospitality." I'm so hungry. ”
The old man said: "My surname is Huang, my name is Wei, and my name is Mingsheng." You can stay overnight with me, and tomorrow I will take you to the market to find your relatives. Zhou Yu nodded in thanks. Huang Wei took the oil lamp and took him to the back room, where there were rows of long tables and benches, which were clearly private schools. At the back was the courtyard, there were two rooms in the courtyard, Huang Wei led him to the west one, opened the door, and lit the oil lamp on the table. He opened the box in the corner, took out a brown fur blanket, and placed it on the bed. He said to Zhou Yu, "Let's rest here." ”
After Zhou Yu thanked him, the old man left. He tossed and turned on the bed, how could he sleep? From time to time, I looked at the window on the side, and I was uneasy. But he was really tired, and after half an hour he was dragged to sleep.
