Chapter 18: Animism
Early Saturday morning.
Nangong Yuchen opened his eyes tiredly, after he got off work yesterday, he practiced for another hour, although his physical strength skyrocketed because of the nutrient solution, but his cultivation still didn't dare to fall, so he slept late.
But Angel began to call constantly at seven o'clock, waking him up directly, and had no choice but to get up early, who let him agree yesterday!
After washing up, we rushed to the motorized rail station and headed towards Area C.
From the outskirts of Area D to the east of Area C, it is an hour's journey, and there is no way that Qinghu Town is located in the east of Area C, and it takes a lot of time to transfer trains in the middle.
The time was just after half past eight, the phone rang again, Nangong Yuchen didn't need to look at it, he knew that it was Angel calling, he didn't want to answer it, but it kept ringing, and he still answered it in irritability.
"Hello? What are you anxious about? Isn't it half past eight? "Nangong Yuchen doesn't have a good airway.
"Hmph, I've been waiting for you at the station for half an hour, can't you come early as a big boy?" Angel's crisp and nice voice came from the phone.
"Is it nine o'clock that you said?" Nangong Yuchen couldn't understand her logic at all, if it weren't for Le Han yesterday, he wouldn't have been idle and had nothing to do to hang out with her, let alone Qinghu Town!
"I don't care, I'll wait for you for another twenty minutes at most, I can't see you, and I'll tell the head teacher that you bullied me in class on Monday!" Angel played the scoundrel directly on the phone.
"I bullied you?" Nangong Yuchen's face was black: "Just like you, I don't want to stick it to me!" ”
Of course, the second half of the sentence was said in his heart, and he didn't dare to say it. Otherwise, if you offend her, don't think about mixing it up in the class, who makes the family a good student and a good class leader who is excellent in character and learning, and who is trusted by various teachers and class teachers!
More than 20 minutes later, the announcement sounded on the motorized rail car: "The East Station of Area C has arrived, please get off the train quickly......"
After Nangong Yuchen got out of the car with the flow of people, he searched for a long time, and finally saw the main owner in a corner.
Today's Angel, wearing a white long dress, perfectly shows her delicate and delicate soft figure, also wearing a black single ponytail, but her temperament has changed in a long skirt, and she has lost the youthful vitality of yesterday's sportswear, but has an elegant and beautiful quality.
"It's a pity, this freckles..."Nangong Yuchen finally set his eyes on the girl's pretty face, and said with regret in his heart.
At this time, Angel also saw Nangong Yuchen, and she was a little angry and said: ? "Humph! Ten minutes late! ”
"I said eldest sister, it was you who begged me to accompany you, not me who begged you to wait for me!" Nangong Yuchen was unceremoniously, he didn't feel wronged yet, but the other party complained that he was here first.
Angel raised her pretty face and threatened with confidence: "Then you can go, anyway, I just want to tell the head teacher on Monday that someone is bullying me!" ”
Nangong Yuchen's head was big for a while, and he couldn't stand the girl in front of him, why didn't he see it in the class, she still had this scoundrel side?
In the end, Nangong compromised, sighed and said, "Forget it, aren't you going to Qinghu Town?" Let's go! ”
After speaking, he no longer entangled with her, and took the lead towards the station, because Qinghu Town does not belong to the urban and suburban areas of Ruxia City, but belongs to an independent town under the jurisdiction of Ruxia City, so the motorized rail car is not passable, and can only take a short bus.
Angel followed behind, and the two walked one after the other, as if they didn't know each other, and walked for more than twenty minutes before finally arriving at the station.
In the ticket hall, Nangong Yuchen said to Angel: "Money! Fifty dollars, the fare for both of us! ”
"You're a big boy, and you're embarrassed to ask me for this money?" Her voice was a little loud, which immediately attracted the sideways glances of the passers-by around her.
"I ......" Nangong Yuchen felt the strange gazes around him, his old face turned red, and he turned around directly and paid fifty yuan to buy two tickets.
He felt the urge to vomit blood in his heart at the moment, feeling that he was being eaten to death by the girl in front of him, and there was nothing he could do about her!
Angel covered her mouth in the back and chuckled, and then the two got into the car together, sat in the back row, and waited for the car to start.
As the number of passengers on the bus increased, it was not until the seats were full that the driver started the car and drove towards the town of Qinghu.
……
Two hours passed imperceptibly.
Nangong Yuchen got out of the car with Angel and walked towards the side intersection.
"Wow, Nangong, is this Qinghu Town?" Angel stood on the side of the road, looked at the valley in front of her, and exclaimed, "It's beautiful! I didn't expect to see this kind of view in the city! ”
In the distance is a hazy valley, which seems to be shrouded in a light veil, and the shadows are full of shadows, as if they are about to leave.
The white clouds here are long, and the trees are dripping green, just like a piece of primitive nature. The breeze caresses the fresh breath and makes people feel comfortable and intoxicated.
Nangong Yuchen didn't answer her words, but walked down the path between the hills in front.
Angel's little face was excited, for everything here, lingering, chattering and appreciating non-stop, I couldn't wait to be born here.
And although Nangong Yuchen behaved indifferently, the familiar atmosphere here made his heart tremble constantly, every grass and tree here was so clear in his memory, and after many years, he finally set foot on this land again.
"In front of it is the Clear Lake in Clear Lake Town, which is also the origin of Clear Lake, as for the town behind the hillside, I... Let's not go! Nangong Yuchen walked in front and muttered without turning around.
"Why? I've heard that the scenery of the town is also beautiful, and isn't this your hometown? It's hard to come back for a trip, and you don't go with your former partner... Say hello? Angel said with some confusion on her face, but at the end of her speech, her tone was obviously deliberately slowing down.
Nangong Yuchen's body trembled, suddenly turned his senses, and roared coldly: "If I don't go, I won't go, can you stop talking nonsense?" ”
"You ......" Angel wanted to refute something, but was greeted by a cold gaze, which made her close her mouth in a daze, and followed Nangong Yuchen angrily.
He really didn't want to go back and see? The answer is no!
He still remembers that his family of four lives here, and he loves every inch of land here, but four years ago, because of the fire he caused, the originally peaceful town killed several children of the same age as him, that is, his and his sister's childhood playmates, so the entire town residents expelled their family of four, and since then they have left their hometown and left here, and they were forced to live in Ruxia City.
"Whew!" Thinking of this, Nangong Yuchen felt a pain in his head, and quickly shook his head, shook off these dusty unpleasant memories, and walked towards Qinghu with Angel behind him.
As he walked, Nangong Yuchen suddenly stopped and said in a deep voice: "Now you can tell me, what are your ideas?" ”
"Huh?" Angel didn't understand what he meant.
"What did you mean by the words you said outside the crystal wall last time?"
When the words fell, Angel was silent for a while, then raised her head and said: "I don't mean anything else, I just see that you are pitiful and want you to become stronger!" ”
"Pathetic?" Nangong Yuchen watched her walk in front of her, and was about to continue to ask when Angel spoke.
I only heard her say quietly: "Nangong Yuchen, do you believe in fate and prophecy?" ”
was asked by her so boldly, Nangong Yuchen was silent, fate? Prophecy? He shook his head in his heart, if there is really such a thing as fate, then what happened to him over the years is doomed?
Thinking of this, he laughed at himself, what if he believed in this kind of thing? What if you don't believe it? Anyway, as long as he can rescue his parents, let his sister forgive him, and let Ning Xue return to him, this is enough!
Angel seemed to have guessed his thoughts, put her hands behind her back, twisted her waist and smiled: "Nangong, hurry up and become stronger, fate and prophecy really exist in this world!" ”
After saying that, he quickened his pace and ran forward, shouting as he ran, "Let's hurry up to Clear Lake!" ”
After a few minutes, the two rounded the hillside and finally reached the bottom valley.
"It's... That's it," Angel grew her mouth and looked at the scenery ahead in shock.
Within sight, the lake water is clear and turquoise, the water is as clear as a mirror, and under the brilliant sunlight above, it flickers like broken silver. The lake is surrounded by undulating hillsides, and the lush trees and flowers are like a fairyland.
The wind blows gently, with the fragrance of nature in the mountains, blowing into the distance, intersecting with the blue sky and white clouds, forming a beautiful picture without any decoration.
Angel stammered, "This... Is it Clear Lake? ”
"Hmm!" The scenery in front of him was so familiar, but when he came here after more than four years, he was also shocked.
Angel suddenly took off her shoes, bare her little feet like a cheerful little girl, jumped to the front of the lake, and said excitedly: "Hee hee here is really beautiful, I have a lot, I haven't felt this breath for many years!" ”
"There's wind, there's water, there's sunshine, there's earth, there's thunder and lightning that we can't see, and it's the most perfect nature I've ever seen since I came here! Thank you so much, Nangong! ”
"What do you mean?" Nangong Yuchen looked at Angel, who was constantly turning her body in front of her, and then asked, "What came here?" What nature? What exactly are you talking about? ”
"Hee-hee!" Angel turned her body, smiled back at Nangong Yuchen, and continued to talk to herself excitedly: "Nangong do you know? Everything is spiritual, you calm down and listen carefully, every mountain and water, every grass and tree here are smiling and greeting us! ”
When the words fell, the wind suddenly rose all around, blowing the girl's black hair and the flowing white dress!
"Listen, it's a blessing from the wind!" Angel stood quietly in place, opened her arms, closed her beautiful eyes and raised her pretty face, intoxicated.
“… Be... Is it? Nangong Yuchen was frightened by her strange appearance, and just when he wondered if Angel was sick in the head, he suddenly froze.
Because he found that Angel not far away was really beautiful! Beauty you've never seen before!
The originally delicate pretty face no longer has any spots, it has become blown-out, the blush is seductive, and the black ponytail has not known when, scattered and turned into a purple color like autumn grapes, and the hair is flying in the wind, like the dance of an elf.
A white long skirt fluttered in the wind, highlighting the girl's delicate body to the fullest.
"Is this Angel?" Nangong was shocked in his heart, and quickly rubbed his eyes vigorously with his hands, and broke away again.
The girl still has a black ponytail tied behind her head, and the spots on her face are still there, and she seems to have hallucinated at that moment just now, or is it really wrong!
At this moment, Angel opened her beautiful eyes and said with a slight smile: "Nangong, you must remember that all things have spirits!" ”
"Animism?"
Nangong followed the silent recitation in his heart, he was a little incomprehensible, and when he was about to ask, he suddenly felt dizzy in his head, and he lay directly on the ground, unconscious.
"Dada!" Angel walked over, she spread her hands helplessly and said, "No way, since the town can't go, then I can only let you sleep for a while!" ”
He immediately looked at the surrounding scene and muttered softly, "It's been too long to stay in the third order, it's time to break through!" ”
"The other side of the blow, everywhere, like a dreamlike wind!"
"Blazing flames, sparks burning the plains, flames like fire!"
"The cold glacier, frozen for thousands of miles, is as solid as rocky ice!"
"Clear water, monstrous waves, water like disaster!"
"The heavy earth, the earth that carries all things, is like the earth that is coming to the end of the world!"
"The hole is like thunder, the gallop is like lightning, and the thunder and lightning of the evil gods and ghosts are punished!"
As she continued to silently chant, the air around her suddenly floated into various colors, rushing towards Angel in the center......
