Chapter 76: The Great Force (4)

Remember this site for a second: m. Gu Chengzi?"

I hurried to the side of the warehouse, which was pitch black. I saw him crawl out of half his position, holding the ground with one hand trembling, and poking his head out to look at me.

In the faint light, I could still clearly see that there was no blood on his face and his eyes were empty. The whole person was also thin and out of shape, and his face was sunken.

"How are you?"

I jumped into the hold, helped him up, and laid him flat on the bed. He kept looking at me, refusing to leave, but I felt that there was not only tiredness in his eyes, but also doubt.

"Have you eaten?"

His lips were so dry that he couldn't speak for a while, so he shook his head at me slightly.

Seeing him like this, I suddenly blamed myself in my heart, if I hadn't been lying down for three days, but only for half a day, everything wouldn't have become so bad.

I patted myself in the face and had to wake myself up.

I quickly stood up, found a few water glasses in the pile, filled them with water, took them to his side, and helped him sit up. As soon as he took the glass of water, he immediately gulped it down.

"How long has it been since you eaten?"

He drank enough water, burped, and after a while, regained his strength and said to me.

"From the day I slept......"

"Why don't you find something to eat after you get up for so long?" I asked anxiously.

"I won't do it......"

The two of us looked at each other, and for a moment the air seemed to freeze.

I turned around and jumped out of the warehouse, walked to the cab, took Lao Xu's "Top 100 Dishes for Survival in the Wild", and handed it to Gu Chengzi.

"Look at what you want to eat, I can make it for you. ”

He took the book, flipped through a few pages, and looked embarrassed.

"These dishes...... Can you do it in the wild?"

"Yes, you can do it. I ...... with Lao Xu last time"

When I talked about Lao Xu, my whole body felt like I had been shocked, and I wanted to continue, but I couldn't speak.

"Joan, what's wrong with you?" he glanced around, perhaps only now realizing that Old Xu was gone, "Where is Brother Xu?"

He ...... Now that he's busy, leave him alone. What are you going to eat first?"

I saw his weak appearance, and I didn't dare to tell him that Lao Xu had been captured by laziness. If I really said it, he would lose control of his emotions and couldn't eat.

"I ...... Actually, it doesn't have to be so troublesome...... You just cook it...... The soup last time...... Dream ...... I want to drink ......."

"Good. You take a break, for a while. ”

As soon as I finished speaking, I searched for the ingredients on the shelves, and turned my back to him the whole time, not feeling that he would notice the tears in the corners of my eyes.

It took me a while to get all the ingredients and tools ready and take them to the side of the fire, which was bright and warm.

I filled a pot of water on the fire

While chopping vegetables, I let myself go and don't think too much about other things.

At this moment, Gu Chengzi got out of the car, he was wearing a cotton coat, and walked towards me.

"Joan, how can I help?" he asked feebly.

When I heard him ask, I suddenly felt a little happy in my heart. I knew he couldn't do anything right now, but he at least asked to explain that he wanted to help me.

"You don't have to help me. You sit well and wait for the food. ”

"Really, don't you need to?"

"Not really. ”

"Okay. ”

He made it to the fire, sat down quietly, looked at the flickering flames, and sat motionless.

Finally, the ingredients in front of me were cut and the water was boiling. I put them all in the pot, covered them, and now just wait for time to finish cooking them.

Finally relieved, I wiped my hands, walked over to the fire, and sat down cross-legged. To be honest, the valley at night is really cold.

I glanced at Gu Chengzi and saw him in a daze, as if he had something on his mind.

"Gu Chengzi?" He didn't respond to me, so I had to be a little louder, "Gu Chengzi?!"

"What's wrong?"

"It's okay, it's okay, I see you're in a daze. ”

"Oh, sorry, I just got a little distracted. ”

"What are you thinking?"

"I ...... I'm thinking about a dream I've had these days. ”

"Dreams, what dreams?"

He sighed, looked into the distance, and said to me:

I've been having a dream over and over again for the past few days......

I dreamed that I woke up at home, pushed open the door, and walked out......

Outside is a lazy town that's almost identical to reality......

But the only difference is that every time I go out, I see an old couple......

They all seemed to be waiting for me to go out, and as soon as they saw me, they came and took turns to greet me......

They were very nice to me and showed me around......

They taught me a lot of things, for example, they taught me how to grow vegetables, taught me how to do laundry and cook, and also taught me how to repair walls......

They treated me like their own grandson, and in my dreams, I seemed to be happy......

But one day, I followed them around......

Out of nowhere, a person with a blue light all over his body appeared......

Without saying a word, he punched the old couple and took them back to his house......

I tried to pry the door open, but I couldn't get them out......

I'm scared......

I'm ashamed too......

They are so good to me, but I can't help them in the slightest......

After finishing speaking, Gu Chengzi buried his head in his knees and didn't speak for a long time.

But I listened to him

The first feeling was shock.

"An old couple?"

"Hmmm......"

"Ali and Ahri?"

"What?"

"It's fine. And then? How did you wake up? ”

"I ...... I listened to them, and while they were being taken away, they told me that I should repair the fence outside my house. After the wall was repaired, I woke up. ”

I thought back to what he had said, and became more sure that the old couple were Ali and Ahri. Ahri told me that in the world of consciousness, there is a lazy town that is exactly like reality.

And the key to making Gu Chengzi wake up is to let him repair the wall of his house.

When they contacted Gu Chengzi, they must have wanted to help him wake up.

But who is the person with blue light all over his body?

"Blu-ray?"

"yes, it's shining all over my body, and it's scary......"

"When I came down, I also ran into a man who was entangled in blue light. ”

"This ......"

Both of us were speechless in surprise, I remember that when Lao Xu was stuck in the cotton pool, he was also pushed out by a blue light person.

"Is there such a coincidence?" I thought to myself.

If that person could really cross freely in the cotton pool, he would still be able to penetrate Gu Chengzi's consciousness world.

But what was the purpose of him locking up Ali and Ahri?

"Crackling...... Crackling ......"

There was the sound of dry wood breaking in the fire in front of me, and in a trance, I thought it was a real fire.

And the pot on the flame has already spewed out a thick water vapor. I quickly stood up and lifted the lid of the pot, and the aroma hit my face, causing my stomach to scream again.

Gu Chengzi was not idle, he hurriedly brought three bowls and a soup spoon from behind him.

I filled him with a bowl as fast as I could, and he held the full bowl of soup in his palm and looked at it expectantly.

I also filled myself with a bowl and the remaining bowl, and I took a deep breath and put it back in place.

"Eat, if you don't eat it, it will be cold. I said to Gu Chengzi.

"It's still rolling, how can it be so cold ...... so quickly"

"Then don't burn it, drink it slowly. ”

Before I could finish speaking, he had already picked up the spoon and drank it, not afraid of being hot at all.

"It's delicious, it's delicious!"

"Slow down. ”

The atmosphere was suddenly much quieter, except for the sound of the valley wind gently blowing through the grass.

After Gu Chengzi ate several bowls, he basically cleared the pot, leaving only half a bowl for me. But luckily, I don't have much of an appetite.

"Oops, I forgot to leave a little for Brother Xu. He put down the bowl and said to me anxiously.

Listening to his voice, he should be almost recovered.

"I ......" I wanted to open my mouth, but my lips were like magnets

I can't open it either.

"What's wrong? What happened to you......"

"Well, it's a long story......"

After a sigh, I told him all about what happened after he fell asleep, including the accident in the cotton pond and the fact that Lao Xu was caught by laziness.

His expression followed what I was saying, and he became a little panicked and anxious.

"This time...... You guys...... And I'm ...... But still sleeping here......"

He paused, slapped himself in the face, and then another.

"I'm useless! I'm useless! I'm really!"

I intervened in time to stop him, and if he continued to fight like this, everyone would be scattered.

"Okay, you don't!" I yelled.

He looked at me with tears in his eyes and sat down on the ground as if he had lost his breath.

"I just feel ...... He's a scourge......" he whispered, "Wherever you go, something bad happens." ”

"Don't say that. ”

"I can't help myself...... It also harmed others...... I'm really! so useless!"

His words were like a cold sword, piercing my heart fiercely, causing my blood to flow backwards for a while.

"I really...... It's so sad...... Brother Xu...... Sorry ......"

"I understand how you feel. I said to him, "I understand......

I sat down next to him and gently patted him on the back with my hand.

I'm the one in the world who can best understand what he's thinking.

Especially when I watched my companions leave one after another, the pain, the unwillingness, and the regret in my heart can only be understood by those who have experienced it.

And in it, it seems that Gu Chengzi and I are both playing the role of being protected, so this feeling becomes even stronger.

"We're on our own...... I whispered.

He looked up and stared blankly, as if confused by what I was saying, but I was sure he understood what I was saying.

"We have to cheer up, Gu Chengzi. And that's what I want to say to myself, "We still have a lot to do." A lot of things ......."

"I know...... I know it's time to pull myself together, I just need to take a break......"

"It's okay, I've slowed down for a long, long time. ”

The two of us smiled wryly at each other, as if we were encouraging each other, and as if we were acknowledging each other.

"By the way, Joan, you said there's a lot more to do?"

"Looking for diligence, this time it's real. ”
