Chapter 14: The Past
"—just call him Luo Weixi, what kind of big brother." Qin Sui first corrected a mistake in the title, and then said, "So you remember your family?" But you've never tried to contact them, not even after leaving the leech. ”
"Aren't you the same?" Yang Lie put the peeled nuts on a small plate and pushed them in front of her, "I have a reason, that family has a better replacement, and there is no need for an eldest son who grew up in a place like a soul leech. ”
Hearing this, Qin Sui, who was eating nuts, knocked on the table dissatisfiedly, "Young man, pay attention to your wording!" ”
"Well, I forgot you don't like to hear that, just because I didn't say it." Yang Lie raised his hand in surrender and continued, "I was born in the Nanxun Yang family—you should know what kind of family this is, so even if I want to go back, it won't be possible. ”
"Nanxun Star Yang family? There have been three Martial Saints, six Martial Extreme Realm Grandmasters, and countless Heaven Breaking Realm masters from the Nanxun Star Yang family? Qin Sui glanced Yang Lie up and down a few times, but unfortunately he couldn't see any family style from this robot shell, "Then it's better not to go back, these ancient families cherish feathers too much." ”
Although Qin Sui didn't like Yang Lie's previous views on soul leeches and the people who grew up in them, she also had to admit that their experience was ...... It's an unbearable past that can never be spoken, and there is no place for them except for the chaotic star field.
They are darkness.
"In fact, the attitude of the Yang family is not the point, my father is just a side of the Yang family, otherwise it would be impossible to marry my mother - these ancient martial arts families have an unwritten rule, the descendants do not intermarry with other races, and must maintain the purity of the bloodline."
"Well, I've heard that."
"My mother came from a small tribe of the Quirla, and now there are very few people in that tribe, she is the daughter of the chief, and she has been educated in the traditions of the Quirla since she was a child - you may have heard that many of the Quirla traditions are very inhumane, one of which is that when you get married, you must kill your first child or you will be doomed."
Qin Sui's action of eating nuts stopped, and he looked at Yang Lie without speaking.
Yang Lie said this, his tone was still very calm - not the calm of the electronic voice, but the peace from the heart, "After I was born, she wanted to kill me for a while, but because of motherhood and love for my father, she didn't do it in the end, but created a clone before injecting me with the gene lock drug, ready to kill that clone. ”
The gene lock is a kind of medicine invented during the Galactic Empire, after injecting the gene lock drug, the gene in the body is like being added a lock - this change is irreversible, that is to say, once the drug is injected, the gene lock can never be unlocked, which greatly reduces the risk of gene theft.
"However, my grandfather found out about this, and he was more traditional than my mother, and quietly swapped me with the clone." Yang Lie didn't care whether Qin Sui ate it or not, he still peeled the nuts calmly, "I was put into an escape pod by them and thrown into the vast starry sky. ”
Although the escape pod is called "Escape", there are very few people who really rely on it to escape, not to mention that Yang Lie was thrown into a barren star field back then, and he was almost doomed to death.
This is really a very bizarre and bloody story, Qin Sui doesn't even know what to say.
She didn't ask Yang Lie how he survived, because she knew that Yang Lie's ability, the SS-level ability, could change.
The ability to change is simply a change of energy, which allows various energies to transform at will to achieve their own goals.
Yang Lie estimated that he survived by absorbing all kinds of energy in the starry sky, and was rescued when a spaceship passed by—and then sent to the soul leech.
However, Qin Sui didn't feel much sadness from Yang Lie, probably because she had already looked down on it, and she didn't seem to need to be comforted?
"The previous things are gone, don't think so much." She still reached out and patted Yang Lie's shoulder, the cold metal touch made her feel that this was a living person, "Maybe we will become famous in the future?" When the time comes, you will have tens of billions of fans, and countless people will call your name, you are their only faith, who cares about those sad pasts! ”
Yang Lie was amused by her irresponsible assumptions, "You are so comforting...... It's really distracting. ”
Qin Sui said sincerely: "I won't comfort people. ”
For some reason, maybe it was because the atmosphere was too good, or maybe it was a momentary brain twitch, Yang Lie suddenly asked a question that he had been curious about for a long time: "Have you ever thought about it...... Looking for your past? ”
Qin Sui was stunned.
Her first memories of this world began on a spaceship that was being sacked by interstellar pirates.
At that time, she was supposed to be five years old, lying in a medical pod for unknown reasons.
She opened her eyes, pushed open the medical hatch and walked out, her mind blank - she didn't know where she came from, she didn't even know who she was.
Before she could figure out what to do, the interstellar pirates had already rushed in, captured her when they saw her, and sold her to the leeches along with the other children on the ship.
Since then, she has become a reserve killer of Soul Leech, and after extremely brutal training, she managed to survive after being injected with banned drugs and became an ordinary killer of Soul Leech.
After that, it is all kinds of tasks until the soul leech is destroyed.
She stayed in the soul leech for fifteen years, at first living in fear every day, and then experienced countless life and death crises, until a heart became cold, numb, and dead.
If it weren't for the fact that she suddenly awakened her second ability during a mission, she would have been a butcher's knife in the hands of a leech for the rest of her life.
But...... She woke up, and everything was different.
When it came to the past, Qin Sui lowered her eyes, unlike what Yang Lie thought, she didn't care who she was before she was five years old, because Qin Sui's life now started after the age of five.
Everything before the age of five didn't mean anything to Qin Sui - it wasn't her.
"Never thought about it." Qin Sui replied, "I don't have any expectations or yearning for my physiological parents and brothers, they have nothing to do with me. ”
The atmosphere suddenly cooled down, and Yang Lie was very smart not to ask more, only nodded, and pointed to the bed on the side, "Sleep well, I'll call you when dinner comes." ”
Qin Sui didn't refuse this time, and fell asleep on the bed almost with a pillow.
Yang Lie was sitting on the side, catching a glimpse of Qin Sui's sleeping face, and suddenly felt a trace of guilt in his heart—he shouldn't have brought up this topic.
He asked Qin Sui about her past just to get to know her better, but the truth was that he had hurt her...... Perhaps, she had an even more unfortunate past, and he had reawakened her buried memories.
"Xiaosui, I'm sorry."
