Chapter 47: Did It Hurt Then?

Liang Jun went out of the courtyard, He Xiu moved a small horse and was sitting in the shade under the big tree outside the door.

Liang Jun walked over slowly, He Xiu squinted and looked up at her, and raised the kettle in his hand, "Drink water?" ”

Approaching Liang Jun shook his head.

"Yes," He Xiu lowered his head and twisted the kettle, "There is no shortage of water in your mouth." ”

Liang Jun paused, confused.

He Xiu raised his head and smiled, "You should look in the mirror, your lips are red and bright now." ”

Liang Jun couldn't even lift his head when He Xiu's straightforward words were said, and his face was burned to the side, "What nonsense......"

He Xiu was still laughing, "Your face is so red." ”

Liang Jun couldn't go on, turned around, and heard He Xiu's tone with some yearning and envy: "It's so good......"

Liang Jun had already taken steps to turn back to the courtyard, and He Xiu's voice came faintly again, "You should cherish it." ”

She stopped when she heard the words and looked back at He Xiu.

He Xiu said: "You and Han Li obviously have feelings for each other, and if you are in this place, if you can be with him, don't waste it on quarreling and bickering, don't ......be like me."

She hesitated, not moving forward, not back.

He Xiu looked into the distance in amazement, "You all have people waiting...... Liu Jiale too. ”

Liang Jun returned to the tree and did not speak.

He Xiu smiled bitterly, "Actually, now I really didn't deliberately occupy Liu Jiale's body, she didn't want to come out, and I couldn't help it...... I wanted to use this body to escape, I just couldn't stand being trapped here, but even if I did, there was nothing waiting for me outside. ”

Liang Jun pressed his hand on her shoulder.

"Liu Jiale and Li Lin, and their parents are waiting outside......" she pressed her hand twice on her forehead, "I have nothing, not even this village...... No one I know is gone, I don't know how long I've been stuck in the woods......"

Her voice trembled.

Liang Jun was silent for a long time, "Don't think about this. ”

He Xiu realized that he was out of shape, wiped the corners of his eyes with his hand, and tried his best to squeeze out a smile, but before he could raise his head, he heard Liang Jun ask again: "Did that guy Li Lin show you the face again, why did you run back by yourself?" ”

He Xiu shook his head, "No." ”

Liang Jun didn't believe it very much, but after thinking about it, the conversation still changed, "That day you said that there were only two results to see the eye of the spring, to make a sacrifice, or like Zhao Yingying, you forgot about yourself." ”

He Xiu looked up at her.

"Liang Yisheng came out of the spring alive and left the village," she said, bothering to move her stool and leaning against a nearby tree, "although he didn't turn out well, it at least shows that there are people who can survive when they see the eye of the spring." ”

He Xiu didn't know much about Liang Yisheng, but he didn't believe it, "Did he really see the eye of the spring?" Are you still alive now? ”

"He didn't necessarily see the eye of the spring, but he did go to the spring, and he took something from the spring...... He was fine after leaving here, and in the end, it was probably his own fault that the result was not good. ”

He Xiu was curious, "What happened to him in the end?" ”

Liang Jun was silent, and finally replied: "I heard...... Lose your marbles. ”

He Xiu let out an "ah".

Liang Jun didn't want to continue on Liang Yisheng's question, and spoke again, "I want to find out what the Eye of the Spring is first, the time Liang Yisheng came up from the spring, Zhao Yingying said that she was pulled in by vines, some people say that Liang Yisheng took the seeds from the spring at that time, if these are true, then the Eye of the Spring should be a plant...... Plants that can be moved. ”

He Xiu said: "Plants can move? ”

Liang Jun's eyebrows tightened, "This is all inference, He Xiu, think back to your contact with the Eye of the Spring...... You said that my sister has the breath of the eye of the spring, which means that your memory of the eye of the spring is there, and you should think about your experience after the ceremony. ”

He Xiu thought for a long time, and finally said helplessly, "No, my memory before my death only hurts when the ceremony is carried out...... When I open my eyes again, I am in the woods, and I have no body of my own, it's not that I don't want to help you, I really can't remember, but I didn't lie to you, your sister gave me the feeling that it was very similar to the eye of the spring......"

She looked at Liang Jun, her tone was a little nervous, and she repeated, "I really didn't lie to you." ”

Liang Jun barely squeezed out a smile, "Well, I know." ”

didn't ask anything, Liang Jun felt a little lost in her heart, but she couldn't force He Xiu too hard.

He Xiu took the food, and the two of them had lunch under the big tree outside the door, the atmosphere was quieter than usual, she thought about it a few times in her mind, Zhao Yingying felt scared when she saw the photo of Liang Ye, and He Xiu was obviously too, so it may not be groundless that Liang Ye and the eye of the spring are similar.

She felt a chill in her heart when she thought of this.

If, as Han Li said, Liang Yisheng planted the Eye of the Spring in desperation and sacrificed Liu Yuyan, and Liu Yuyan became a deed, then it was not by chance that Liu Yuyan, who was originally infertile, would become pregnant, and her body had already changed at that time.

Liang Jun originally thought that it might be some kind of parasite or something, but now he pondered the bulging form under the skin, which coincided with the moving vines described by Zhao Yingying......

That vine is sticking out of the eye of the spring, it is very likely to be part of the eye of the spring, if what is in Liu Yuyan's body is really this thing, what about Liang Ye?

……

He Xiu finished lunch and went to the field to continue working, and Liang Jun sat under the tree for a long time.

Even on a sunny day, the temperature here is cooler than in the desert, similar to the city she is used to, she sits on a stool leaning against a tree, looking ahead a little blankly, occasionally a villager passes by, and what He Xiu said is vaguely sounded in her head.

He Xiu said that this whole village is the toy of the eye of the spring, the eye of the spring likes to trap people, likes to see people desperate, struggling and powerless, and likes people to bleed and suffer.

She finally remembered that these adjectives could be used to describe the scenes she had seen beforeβ€”it was Liang Ye who had let her see it, and Liang Ye took her hand and made her see the future she foresaw.

Liang Ye never foresaw anything good.

Natural and man-made disasters, bridge collapses, train derailments or major earthquakes...... Without exception, those dreams were filled with images of blood and cruelty, and people struggled and cried in pools of blood.

Liang Ye's ability to predict is biased.

The eye of the spring is also biased.

As she gradually felt her body start to chill under the tree, Han Li came out of the courtyard and glanced at her, "The things are tidied up, can you look at them now?" ”

Liang Jun clasped his hands, nodded and got up.

Han Li said, "You can't look at it in vain, I have a condition. ”

"What?"

His gaze slid down her waist, knowing that she had put something there, and he said, "I want that dagger from you." ”

Liang Jun frowned, "What is it used for?" ”

"Give Zhao Yingying another chance."

Liang Jun was unwilling, "This is the only thing Liang Yisheng left me." ”

Han Li was silent for a few seconds, "I can snatch it from you, or steal it, but I want you to hand it over yourself." ”

Liang Jun felt that this was a tear on her face, but she really wanted to see those things, she lowered her head and took off the dagger from her waist and threw it to him, and she didn't bother to say anything, and went directly to the hut in the courtyard.

Most of the content Han Li investigated was recorded in a tablet, in addition to a notebook and some photos on his mobile phone.

Liang Jun watched it for a whole afternoon, and when he finally went out, he was top-heavy, looking at the sunset on the horizon, and felt that it was already dark in advance.

Li Lin, Zhao Cheng and He Xiu had already come back from the field and ate together, Liang Jun had no appetite, because of the things she saw, her heart was extremely depressed, she went out directly, and walked without a purpose for a while, and finally she found herself in front of Quan.

The altar was still the same as before, surrounded by stones as if there was a formation, and she stared blankly at the white cloth on the spring, and walked forward involuntarily, until finally she was held by a hand.

Han Li furrowed his eyebrows, his voice low, "If you get closer, the villagers will notice." ”

It was getting darker by this time, and she looked at him in a daze, and her eyes fell back to his gloved left hand.

"Your hand...... He cut it? ”

Han Li was silent for a few seconds, "No, it's his subordinates, at that time they were going to take Zhixia away, and I was alone, outnumbered. ”

She raised her hand and touched his hand twice through the glove, and suddenly felt very uncomfortable.

Han Li's investigation into the Eye of the Spring had begun more than two years ago.

At that time, his sister was taken away and he had just lost his left hand.

The culprit of all this is the employer he once gave up his girlfriend to save in country G.

Liang Jun carefully touched his hand and asked him, "If you had known today, would you have saved him at that time?" ”

Han Li was stunned, and the corners of his lips moved.

"I can't predict the future...... I don't know how to regret saving him, at that time I went to save him, obviously to get a commission, in order to let Zhixia live a better life. ”

Five years ago, his employer in country G was named Jiang Yu, and Jiang Yu was the pride of heaven in the true sense.

Jiang Yu was only in his early twenties at that time, studying abroad, and used the vacation to go to country G because he wanted to develop a new project, inspect the medical poppy and millet planting base in country G, and finally was targeted by the local people who also wanted to do this business.

Han Li's mind was full of money at that time, and he didn't take women too seriously, that so-called girlfriend was a little girl who pestered him in the local area, and later he recalled why they were together, probably because he would also get bored in a foreign place.

This idea is shameless, and what he did later was even more shameless, for the sake of money, he didn't save his girlfriend who was in prison because of him, and the breakup was a matter of course, he didn't feel sad because of this, and he didn't regret it, because he got a lot of money.

He followed Jiang Yu back to China and became Jiang Yu's personal bodyguard, and his commission increased several times, he was very happy that Han Zhixia no longer had to work.

Han Zhixia also entered Jiang's work after graduation and told him that she was with Jiang Yu.

He still remembered that Jiang Yu and Han Zhixia invited him to dinner that day, saying that he was a matchmaker and should be thanked, and he felt that everything was developing in a good direction at that time.

Looking back on the past now, he also felt ridiculous, he smiled self-deprecatingly, lowered his eyes to look at Liang Jun's hand, and slowly shook it.

She didn't resist, even through the gloves, she seemed to feel the coldness of the metal, she asked, "At that time...... Does it hurt? ”

When the words came out, she realized that this was a nonsense.

A double blow to the body and mind, she didn't know how he came over.

He squeezed her hand tighter, "It doesn't matter what I do, I have to save Zhixia, it's okay to exchange my life, I want her to get rid of the eye of the spring." ”
