Volume 1 The Endless Wilderness Section 124 The Old Woman

There is a rainbow hanging in the sky, the sun is bright and warm, the fragrance of grass penetrates into the nose, and a gust of wind blows, with a touch of coolness, a leisurely and comfortable scene.

Because it was so comfortable, Chen Xing couldn't help but lie down for a while, and then he got up and walked to the fountain in the middle of the garden. On the path full of flowers, he also picked a big red fruit with a dripping red hand, and when he bit into it, the milky fragrance overflowed.

It's like a legendary paradise of milk and honey, and you'll want to stay here forever. But Chen Xing knew that all this was an illusion. Suna's body carries this place, and if she encounters danger, she will be destroyed with it. Therefore, before he has strong strength, he can't stay with peace of mind and leave his fate to heaven.

Moments later, he walked into the fountain, dripping with water, beneath the mist-shrouded giant statue.

Upon getting closer, he finally got a clear view of the statue. It was a huge rock, or rather a rockery, with reliefs of countless maidens carved on it. They come in all shapes, from joy to sadness, to anger to shyness. Their appearance is very similar to Suna's, but all of them have no pupils, and their eyes are empty, like puppets.

Looking up, there are two huge runes suspended above the rockery, one is crystal clear, like a crystal stone, exuding a soft luster, and the other is all blue, countless tiny thunderbolts flow on the surface, looking full of momentum.

Chen Xing grabbed the body of the girl's relief, stepped on their shoulders, and climbed up little by little. After more than ten or twenty minutes, I finally climbed to the top.

In the center of the rockery, there is a peach-shaped boulder, which is crawling with turquoise vines, one by one, like a beating heart. Reach out and touch it, and it feels soft, like jelly jelly.

"Ah......h

Suna's voice sounded in her head, like a dream, intoxicated, "Brother, Suna's heart is warm, so comfortable......"

Chen Xing stroked it for a while, raised his head, looked at the runes above and said, "Suna, send me up." ”

"Hmm." Suna answered, and then tiny vines drilled out of the ground, intertwining with each other, growing thicker and thicker, and finally twisting into a strand, forming a road to the sky. And at the end of the road, there are two huge runes.

Runes are the most mysterious beings in the world, like codes in the gene chain, recording different abilities.

Runes are divided into two types, one is the "innate rune", which is the innate ability of the species, and the other is obtained through learning or injection, which is called "acquired rune". These two runes of Suna are innate, while Chen Xing's runes, except for "danger perception", are all acquired.

According to historians, the first runes appeared in the middle and late stages of the Cataclysm, brought to this world by otherworldly creatures in the turbulence of time and space. By studying them, humans have gained the power of runes.

Looking at the runes with thunder and light in front of him, Chen Xing gathered his breath and slowly stretched out his hand.

As far as he knew, humans had not yet developed the ability to "teleport", because creatures with this kind of ability were very rare, and they were extremely powerful, and it was almost rare for them to be able to get in close contact like him, and the other party was still voluntary.

"Zila!"

The moment the palm touched, the electric current flew away, Chen Xing seemed to have been struck by lightning, his hair exploded, and his whole body flew out with black smoke bombs, like a kite with a broken string, and he fell to the ground.

"Brother, what's wrong with you!"

"Brother, brother!" Before fainting, Suna's panicked voice kept echoing in his head.

The sound grew farther and farther away, and finally disappeared. He felt his body fluttering, as if floating in the void, accompanied by nothing but boundless darkness.

After a long time, he seemed to hear countless small sounds, just like being in a lively square, where countless voices converged together, noisy and chaotic.

Gradually, the voice became clearer and clearer, and it was a little girl.

"I'm Suna, I'm eight years old." "I like sugar, no, as long as it's sweet, I like it." "Old mother, does Suna have a father?" "Old mother, Suna wants to go to school." "Old mother, that little bird is so pitiful."

"Old Mom, what are you doing?"

Suddenly, a voice caught his attention.

"I'm digging for treasures." "Is there a treasure underground?" "Yes, it can be exchanged for glittering gold coins to buy you candy to eat." "Okay, okay, Suna wants to eat sugar candy."

The darkness in front of him gradually dissipated, and Chen Xing saw the starry sky at night, as well as the wasteland under the starry sky, and two figures, one large and one small.

An old woman dressed as a cook, dressed as a cook in an apron and a headscarf, is digging a pit with a shovel in the faint moonlight. Next to her was a little girl of seven or eight years old, with an innocent smile on her face despite her shabby clothes, and her voice was sweet and very cute.

"As long as you are obedient, the old mother can still send you to school." The old woman stood in the pit and looked up to the little girl

"Really?" The little girl's eyes lit up.

"When did the old mother lie to you?" The old woman said with a smile. The wrinkles on her face were deep, and when she smiled, she huddled together, and for some reason, she felt a bit of a philistine.

I don't know how long later, the picture suddenly turned and appeared in a hole in the ground. The light from the oil lamp was so faint that I could barely see the faces of two people.

"Good daughter, when you go inside, you pick up something that is shiny and shiny." The old woman said, holding a kerosene lamp in one hand and pointing to the depths of the hole in the ground with the other.

"It's so dark inside, I, I'm afraid." The little girl had a cowardice on her face and a trembling voice, as if she was afraid.

"Don't be afraid, this is a dead ant hole, and there is no danger." The old woman coaxed.

"Woo woo, old mother, Suna doesn't want to go." The little girl whimpered, two tears on her plastered face.

"Obedient!" The old woman suddenly raised her voice, and her voice became cold.

"Woo woo woo ......" the little girl shrank back, did not speak, just lowered her head and cried.

"What a money loser!" The old woman said in a loud voice, her voice becoming more and more harsh, like a fingernail rubbing against glass, harsh and ugly, "I picked you up and raised you so big, just for today." I'll tell you honestly, you have to go if you go today, and you have to go if you don't go! ”

"Woo-woo-woo......" The little girl cried even harder.

"Cry, know cry! If you dare to cry again, I will sell you to the back alley! The old woman threatened sharply, her narrow eyes shining with a fierce light, just like the two of them just now.

"If you don't learn well at a young age, you will cry and coquettish, what to pretend!" The old woman counted, "Little slut, fox, when you grow up, you will only seduce men......"

Seeing this, Chen Xing couldn't help but feel nervous, he didn't expect Suna's life experience to be so miserable.

"Get in on here, or I'll kill you!" The old woman pinched Suna's arm hard, and Suna cried even harder.

"Smack!" The old woman couldn't pull Suna for a long time, and slapped her in the face, making a crisp sound.

The slap stunned Suna, stopped crying, and stared blankly at the old woman.

"If you don't go in again, I won't give you food tomorrow, and I'll starve you to death!" The old woman said viciously.

Finally, Suna silently turned around and crawled into the depths of the burrow, disappearing into the darkness......
