Chapter 43: Zhang Shu's Past

The slender finger pointed at the lamp at the gate, released the lamp spirit, and pointed to the remnant soul that had recondensed into a human form, Si Chuchu asked Zhang Shu, "Are you still afraid of A-Qing?" ”

Zhang Shu hesitated for a moment and shook his head.

How could this be, that sense of fear really disappeared from the bottom of my heart.

Just because Miss Chu Chu threatened to let the lamp spirit beat him?

Si Chuchu threw the spar in his hand to Zhang Shu, "Your things, put them away by yourself." ”

Zhang Shu saw a shiny thing thrown at him by Si Chuchu, and subconsciously took it in his hand.

When the spar was in his hands, an indescribable feeling came to his heart, and he originally thought it was impossible for Si Chuchu to say that this spar was his, but the slightest pull in his palm made him silent.

Trying to invade his divine sense, Zhang Shu slowly changed his expression.

You can't see the desert as far as you can see, you can't see the sun, and you can't see the shrubs that grow in front of you.

The yellow sand obscured the sun, penetrating into shoes, clothes, ears and even eyes.

The only two camels were already running away before the sandstorm.

There was only a team of archaeologists who were urgently looking for shelter before the sandstorm was about to arrive, pulling each other towards the ruins in front of them.

Someone in the group pointed to the only child among them and shouted, "Or don't take him with you!" If this continues, no one will be able to escape. ”

Seeing that the sandstorm is getting closer and closer, the road to the desert is already difficult to walk, and you have to be on the lookout for quicksand at all times, and there is a teenage boy in the team, and the rest of the adults can't get up quickly.

The boy also heard the man's words, and couldn't help but tremble, "Please, you are left behind, I have run as hard as I can!" ”

If he was left behind, he would have died.

The rest of the people did not take the boy's begging into account, and the man in the lead looked at the boy with a complicated expression.

But in the face of the terrible desert storm, he finally made a decision that made the boy desperate.

They decided to leave him behind and run for their lives.

No matter how important treasure and money are, you have to have a life to enjoy them, and if you die, you have nothing.

The so-called archaeological team is just a fig leaf to hide people's ears, and the real purpose of the five of them coming from Province C to Province X in this bitter cold place is the site of an ancient city in this desert.

The ancient city was hidden under the desert as the years passed.

However, the clues they discovered a few days ago point to the land of a treasure that has been widely circulated but the exact ruins have not yet been found.

Or it would be more appropriate to describe them as gold diggers and tomb robbers.

The teenage boy stumbled upon the road in the city of K in the province of X before they went into the desert.

The reason why they took him on the road was because they found something different about the boy.

This teenage boy was able to see things that ordinary people couldn't.

This is of great use to them who are going to the ruins of the ancient city, and the boy is an orphan wandering on the street, so it is easy to take him away.

Before entering the ruins of the ancient city, his life was in danger, so it was just as easy to leave him behind.

Looking back at the eye of the storm that was getting closer and closer behind him, the boy's eyes gradually swelled with despair, and even a hint of relief.

Since he was born, a Taoist priest from Youfang gave him an order, and the eight characters were too hard to hurt his six relatives.

When he was three years old, his family found that he always talked nonsense about seeing female ghosts in red clothes and headless men, and his grandfather said that the child was too young for fear of being entangled in something unclean, and he wanted to invite the blind people in the town to come and see it.

The blind man was a fortune teller with a bit of fame.

But before his grandfather could invite the blind man who came to get the fortune teller, he died suddenly of a heart attack.

At the time of the burial, the three-year-old squatted beside his grandfather's coffin, crying and shaking his hands.

The blind man in the town also came, touched the child's eyebrows, eyes and body bones, sighed and persuaded the child's parents to give the child away, this is not a child they can afford.

The child's mother refused, and the blind man sighed and packed up his things overnight and left the town.

Two years later, there was another famine in Province X, and in the town where he was born that year, everyone died, including his parents.

He was the only one who miraculously survived.

Knowing his past experience, and the criticism that hurt his six relatives with eight characters, even the orphanage was unwilling to take him in.

After the age of five, he became a member of the little beggars on the streets of Province X, and never spoke to other homeless people, everyone called him Little Dumb.

It's not that he doesn't want to deal with people, it's that even he himself is afraid that his proximity will hurt people.

The reason why he was willing to follow these people who claimed to be the archaeological team was because when he said that he didn't want to harm them, these people smiled and told him that they were all hard-working characters.

I didn't expect that I couldn't escape after all.

Growing up in X high-ranking officials, he knew that this desert had not encountered such a large-scale sandstorm for a long time.

The moment he was caught in the eye of the hurricane, the teenage boy had a smile on his face.

Since he was a child, he could see those wandering ghosts and even mountain spirits, and those who were involved with him, no matter who they were, would lose their lives due to various accidents, natural and man-made disasters.

Perhaps for an outlier like him, death is the best relief.

"I ...... Come to think of it. ”

Zhang Shu's eyes were scattered and unfocused, and the hand holding the glowing memory crystal trembled slightly from the force.

How could he have forgotten such a horrible and desperate past.

Si Chuchu didn't care how complicated Zhang Shu's mood was now, he raised his hand and slapped it on Zhang Shu's head.

"When I think about it, I remember, what's going on with this death-like expression."

Zhang Shu was slapped back to his senses by Si Chuchu, "Miss Chuchu, I'm an ominous person, I'll go first." ”

Otherwise, it will hurt you.

Tomorrow, Qing Muge's commission will expire, and in the past two days with Si Chuchu, he can feel that Si Chuchu is a good person, not with the arrogance of a high-ranking monk, but very easy to get close to.

He didn't want to hurt anyone anymore.

Grabbing Zhang Shu's back collar, Si Chuchu shook his hand and pressed him to the stool, leaned over fiercely and threatened, "I haven't finished talking yet, do you dare to go and try it?" ”

Zhang Shu was still holding his black backpack with all his belongings in his arms, a man in his thirties, distracted and aggrieved, and the scene of being fiercely pressed on the stool by a little girl who was a whole head shorter than him was really out of harmony.

But Shen Beibei hurried to Qingmu Pavilion, and what she saw at first glance when she entered the door was this scene.

"Chuchu Chu...... What are you? ”

Si Chuchu turned around and saw Shen Beibei's delicate expression, let go of Zhang Shu and clapped his hands, "It's here so soon, let's say, why are you in such a hurry to find me?" ”
