Volume 2 The Journey Chapter 102 If Life Deceives You
Seeing this mention of Princess Yao's mother, Aunt Shuang seemed to talk about her sadness again, hurriedly changed the topic, and said:
"When everything was calm and silent outside, I managed to crawl out of the rubble slowly, only to feel the pain on my face like a knife, obviously scratched by broken stone and bricks, and many wounds on my body.
Then I staggered here by myself, and built a hut alone to recuperate. ”
When Aunt Shuang said this, she pointed to Xiao Yan, a girl who was standing quietly on the side, and said: "When I get a little better, I can't help but go around the vicinity of Kaesong alone, and I rescued nine babies and children in a few days, this is where they came from." ”
"Pity the hundreds of thousands of people in my Cangyue Country, once the country was destroyed, except for a few people who fled to other places, most of them fell into the blood of those monsters, and the Cangyue Country in hundreds of miles of square gardens was full of bones, and it became a flood in just ten years. ”
"A few years ago, I wandered around the ruins of Kaesong and came across a newly collapsed wall, and there was a strange thing under the wall. ”
After speaking, Aunt Shuang stood up, took out a clay pot from a dilapidated wooden cabinet in the house, reached out and groped in the jar for a while, found a copper coin-like thing, and gently placed it in front of Yao Yao's eyes.
Yao Yao only glanced at it, her face suddenly changed, and she couldn't help but cry out "Ah!"
This is a black round "metal" block, with a straight "well" shaped pattern on it, emitting a misty light, Yao Yao took it in his hand and pinched it, just as he expected in his heart: I don't know what material it is, it doesn't seem to be gold and iron.
There is also a piece in the hands of Xiaoqing, the white fox who died in Nanli City, almost exactly the same as this one, I remember that Xiaoqing said that this thing came from the bottom of the Boundless Mountain, which was the demon's lair......
Didn't Xiaoqing say that the pangolin had only stolen one piece from the beginning?
Could it be that the demon beast pangolin actually stole two pieces, but only gave one piece to Xiaoqing, and the other piece was lost to the Cang Kingdom for hundreds of thousands of years.
Come to think of it, or is it this thing that brought disaster to Cangyue?
Thinking of this, my heart couldn't help but sink: what should come will come sooner or later.
That demon is not small, even if it is not because of this thing, I am afraid... In the face of today's world-destroying disaster, I still can't avoid it!
Wen Chan had never seen this thing before, and when she saw her junior sister in a daze with such a copper coin-like thing, she couldn't help but feel a little uncertain, so she couldn't help but exhale softly: "Senior sister?"
Yao Yao suddenly came back to her senses, looked at the question in her senior sister's eyes, and explained to her: "This thing is from those monsters, I have seen it in Nanli before, but I don't know what it is for." ”
The above tic-tac-toe is the result of their habit of linear thinking, and according to Qiao Yushu, a doctor of archaeology in Daqin, it may be a pattern used for communication. ”
"From this point of view, my calamity and my hatred of the country are all because of those monsters, Qin Wuji deliberately blamed the demon clan, in order to kill two birds with one stone, not only to make the demon clan bear the name of brutality, but also to conceal the truth and block the mouth of the world. ”
Speaking of this, Yao Yao looked puzzled again: "But what's strange is that Uncle Tang also said that it was done by the demon clan?"
Wen Chan seemed to be in a trance, she thought about it, and said to Yao Yao: "Uncle Tang saved you from leaving the sect when you returned to the mountain, I'm afraid there is something strange here, but fortunately, he can't necessarily find it, and it's not difficult to know the reason inside." ”
Yao Yao listened and nodded slowly, and then told her senior sister about everything she encountered when she returned to the sect a few days ago.
Wen Chan let out a long sigh after hearing this, and said, "Uncle Yi is just afraid that she already knows something more or less, she and Qin Wuji have grown up together since childhood, and they have a deep affection for it. ”
But what Qin Wuji liked was his other junior sister, that is, Qin Fangfang's mother, Princess Yi. ”
"I heard that the old hall master was desperate and insisted on marrying Princess Yi to the King of Chu as the princess, and Princess Yi chose to submit to Qin Wuji for the throne of the hall master, which made Uncle Yi, Princess Yi and Qin Wuji all suffer all their lives. ”
"In this way, even if Uncle Yi knows the truth, as you can see, I am afraid that she will not choose to leave Wuji Mountain, but will rather choose the jade shatter, or try to redeem it by herself. ”
"It's fate!"
Yao Yao was thinking about another thing: Qin Wuji had always focused on practicing martial arts, showing people with the image of unintentional love between men and women, but I was afraid that this was a way for him to escape from the pain in his heart!
In his heart, or didn't know how to hate his fucking master?
He has been showing up in front of people with illusions all year round, will this perverted forbearance have something to do with his demonic possession?
The little girl was actually just guessing at this time, and many years later, she suddenly remembered that her cranky thinking at this time was infinitely close to the truth.
Aunt Shuang had already gotten up and made soup with her own hands, to cook a meal for the little princess of her homeland, Wen Chan looked at the busy Aunt Shuang, and pulled Yao Yao out with her.
Not long after, under the afterglow of the setting sun, two preoccupied girls were already walking on the edge of the crooked river.
"Who would have thought that the truth of the matter turned out to be like this, I misunderstood the two of them!" Yao Yao felt a little regretful in her heart, and a feeling of nostalgia quickly crept into her heart.
Wen Chan smiled reluctantly and joked: "If life deceives you, please don't be sad." ”
"Because it will deceive you tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. ”
Yao Yao sighed slightly, and suddenly asked, "Senior sister, has life always been like this?"
Wen Chan was stunned and replied, "I think it's always like this." ”
As if thinking about it, she continued: "Although the world is full of darkness, there is a crack in everything, and that is where the light comes in. ”
"This is the so-called hope, even in the gutter, we can still look up at the stars and yearn for the distance. ”
Yao Yao's body shook slightly: Far away?
Yes, I'm going to a distant land. With that sunny him, he crossed the mountains and rivers together, went into the distance, and looked for hope for the entire continent.
"The wind blows the waves, just smile and don't worry. Senior sister, I have decided, I am going to join the two of them and find hope to save the mainland together. ”
After Yao Yao finished speaking, she didn't wait for Wen Chan to answer, she suddenly turned her head and pointed to the thatched house and the young boys and girls beside the house.
Only in this way can they live, and the people of the entire continent can defeat the brutal demons and live. ”
Wen Chan's eyes lit up, and she continued: "We can only live ourselves, everything we do is just to live." ”
"Senior sister, I'm glad you finally figured it out, I'm here to find you for this purpose!"
Yao Yao nodded lightly and looked at her senior sister, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on her body, making her exude a soft glow.
In the face of disaster, most people will eventually choose to be strong.
Senior sister, she became famous at a young age, and she was proud of the spring breeze, I don't know what kind of life she has experienced? Why is she completely different from Qin Fangfang?
But I heard the senior sister say: "Since you left, my Xichu army and the children of the sect, as well as those monsters and beast tide zombies, have surrounded Qingyang Mountain. ”
"But I already know that the two of them have crossed the encirclement and gone west, and the secret stake planted by our sect in Qingyangmen has also reported the news to the sect, and they are only afraid that they will encounter obstacles along the way. ”
"What do you think is going to do to find them?"
Yao Yao replied after a moment's thought: "If what I expected is correct, they should go to the Chu Realm, turn north, enter the wasteland, and go west along the Blue River. ”
Wen Chan nodded: "If you go to the Western Regions, you will probably just have to leave like this." ”
"I'll accompany you to the west first, and then I'll turn back when you meet them, and then I'll go back to find Uncle Tang, only when Uncle Tang comes back, can I wake up and save most of my fellow disciples, so that they will no longer be in the same stream with those monsters. ”
Yao Yao's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she sighed in her heart: I didn't expect Senior Sister to be so transparent in her heart, she really deserves her reputation.
"I'm here tonight to accompany Aunt Shuang, and we'll leave tomorrow. ”
"If one day the rivers and mountains are appeased, I will come here to live in seclusion, small bridges and flowing water, thatched huts and pastorals, morning chickens and dogs, and night stargazing, which is really good. ”
At this time, the sunset was shining, the sunset was full of sky, and a few wisps of clouds in the high sky were like silk, Yao Yao looked at the tea garden in front of her and the green mountains on all sides, and seemed to be drunk in the slight evening breeze.
**
Zhao Zihan and Mei'er took advantage of the night and easily crossed the encirclement of the Chu army, but there were endless mountains in front of them.
After wandering around the mountain road for several days, I saw that the mountain was getting slower and smoother, and the road was getting flatter and smoother.
Zhao Zihan was overjoyed and surprised in his heart: he didn't expect to travel hundreds of miles in the mountains in the past few days!
Luzhou is the northwest end of Dachu, from which it travels more than 100 miles to the west, and then turns north, you can reach the edge of the wasteland, and cross the wasteland, which is the upper reaches of the Blue River in the west of the demon domain Ningcheng.
It seems that the road is on the right track.
The two rode horses, along the road, and soon got on a wide post road, longitudinal horses to the west, and gradually saw more and more pedestrians on the post road, groups of three or five, with children and daughters, or shoulders and backs, or pushing a wheelbarrow, with vegetable faces, tattered clothes, and hurried walking.
The more they looked at it, the more surprised they became: This place should be hundreds of miles away from the Qin-Chu border, why did these people seem to be fleeing as well? I couldn't help but find someone to talk to and ask, but it was the people of Chu who fled to avoid the military disaster and the beast tide.
The army of Western Chu has surrounded Qingyang Mountain in several cities of Daqin, but there are always stragglers who go out to kill people and set fires, rape * adultery and plunder, and do all kinds of evil.
What's more, within a hundred miles of the Chu realm on the side of Qin and Chu, suddenly the beast tide was surging, the zombies were overflowing, the demon beasts ate people and drank blood, and the zombies were cruel and murderous, but the Chu army ignored it, ignored it, and let it go.
The people of Chubian were full of grief and indignation, but they were helpless, their homes were no longer home, and they had to leave their hometowns one after another to avoid trouble.
Zhao Zihan sighed in his heart: Chu people don't know the truth, how could they have thought that the Wuji Palace, which the people of Chu have relied on for thousands of years, has become the culprit of killing people and destroying the world?
