Chapter 4: Reminiscences
"Yunxi?" Zhang Qian was stunned for a moment, then reacted again, and said with a smile: "Her real name is Han Xiao, and she is an orphan with no father and no mother."
It turned out that she lied to me not only about feelings, but also because her name was not true. I was so amused at how serious I was at the time, I continued, "And how did you get here? Did you win the jackpot too? ”
Zhang Qian shook his head, and his handsome face looked helpless. He said: "I was originally a volunteer for MVC's crossing, and I was also a researcher. Many years ago, MVC's crossing technology was not developed, so three volunteers were selected from the company to conduct crossing experiments. The first volunteer was destroyed in a fire due to a faulty electrical circuit when the machine was started, and the second volunteer died in the squeezing of the rift in time and space, and although I succeeded, I could never go back. ”
"So you take advantage of the cloud... Han Xiao approached me and gave me so many benefits just to get the bracelet? ”
Zhang Qian nodded unabashedly and admitted, he took out a wooden hairpin from the pocket of his clothes, put it in his palm and looked at it for a long time, his eyes were full of reluctance.
"If it weren't for her, if she hadn't had that damn disease, maybe I'd be living happily by now!" He blamed himself as he spoke, then handed me the hairpin and said, "Don't think you have a loved one, I have too!" The owner of this hairpin is lying here now! He pointed his finger at the flower-filled land, and then he didn't know what he had touched, but he heard a loud bang, and the flowers in front of him slowly cracked a finger-wide slit, which grew bigger and bigger, until a translucent rectangular thing was completely peeking out of the ground, and the crack stopped moving.
Zhang Qian didn't pay attention to me, he walked over with his feet, and I followed suit, and I saw that it was a coffin made of crystal, and there was a beautiful woman lying in it. She had a kind face, the corners of her eyes were slightly upturned, and her long eyelashes hung down above her eyelids. Her cheeks were flushed, her skin was smooth and fair, and there was a faint smile on her lips, as if she were asleep.
"She is my wife, and the woman I love most in this life." He opened the crystal coffin as he spoke, then slowly held her in his arms, caressing her cheek lovingly.
Looking at him immersed in his own world, I didn't know what to say, so I could only silently turn my face away and stare at the bouquet next to me in a daze.
Once upon a time, I was pampered like this, but now I am nothing.
"Are you thinking about him?" I was so focused on distraction that I forgot that any of my thoughts now could not escape his eyes, so I could only nod my head.
He muttered, then placed the woman in the crystal coffin and buried it underground.
"A woman is soft-hearted, even if he hurts you, you still can't forget him, right?" The cynical tone sounded extremely unpleasant to me, and my hand was already raised, but it turned to the movement of brushing the broken hair between my forehead, and whispered, "Aren't you the same?" ”
He was stunned for a moment and blurted out, "What do you mean?" ”
I looked at him and smiled without answering. I don't know what's going on, just the moment I saw the beauty just now, several pictures suddenly appeared in my mind, one was Zhang Qian snuggling with her intimately, and the other was the woman stabbing Zhang Qian with a sword. I guess this should belong to Zhang Qian's memory, but how did it appear in my mind?
Looking at the flickering light in his eyes, I suddenly realized that maybe he could know my mind at the same time that I could know him. In order to confirm this idea, I closed my eyes and concentrated, and sure enough, several more images appeared in my mind, and the protagonist was Zhang Qian without exception.
"Have you seen enough?" A gloomy voice interrupted my thoughts. I opened my eyes twice, then raised my eyebrows at him, and said, "Actually, you are quite a good match, but it's a pity that she has suffered a lot because of your willfulness, and she has come to this point today, all of which are caused by you." ”
"Hmph, I don't need to talk about my business!" This sentence really aroused his anger, and I gloated at this angry face and laughed even louder: "Zhang Qian, even if you can go back to modern times, what? She's been dead for a long time, and no amount of technology can save a zombie. ”
"Who said she was dead? I'm just putting her to sleep for a while! He glared at me, and his voice raised a lot: "Chu Xinyuan, don't be complacent, you probably don't know that Xiao Ziling didn't just deceive your feelings, he also deceived you about another thing!" ”
This sentence really made me stop laughing, my expression slowly condensed together, and I said in a deep voice: "Say! ”
But Zhang Qian was proud, he just shook his index finger arrogantly at me.
When I saw that he would not tell me, I closed my eyes to see what was going on in his heart, but all I could see was a blank space, and even his past was gone.
By the time I opened my eyes again, he had long since disappeared from my eyes. I was so angry that I stomped my feet on the spot, picked a flower with my hand, and used it as Zhang Qian's head, which was ravaged into pieces.
His words were like a pebble thrown into a lake, and they caused great ripples in my consciousness, and I was restless all day because of these words, but all I could see were his previous memories. When I put these images together, I had all the past about Zhang Qian in my hands.
It turns out that when he first came to this plane, he was as curious about everything as I was. During one of his trips, he saved a woman because he was nosy.
As with all bloody plots, he fell in love with the woman after that. Later, because of the pursuit of the enemy and her master's dissatisfaction with what she had done, the woman's master told the enemy their address.
The enemy and his men not only leveled the village where they lived, killing them all along with the people there, but also forced the woman to drink a poison. Later, due to Zhang Qian's hard work, the woman's master finally agreed to help the girl detoxify, but also abolished her martial arts.
It was the middle of winter, and the cold weather and poverty caused the woman to fall ill with tuberculosis. This disease is actually very easy to cure in modern times, but it is much more difficult in ancient times.
A few days later, the poor woman died happily in Zhang Qian's arms on a snowy night. Before she died, she still had a shallow smile on her lips, as I had seen before.
