Chapter 21: The Aftermath of the Catastrophe
In a forest shrouded in thick fog, Yunyan held his injured hand and ran desperately forward.
At this moment, her heart was full of doubts, where is this? Why are you here?
"Don't be stupid, you can't get out of here."
The sneering voice of the person chasing behind irritated Yunyan's eardrums.
Looking back, isn't it the masked man who almost strangled himself to death? Didn't I hypnotize him, why is he here?
"Die obediently!"
The masked man followed closely behind, seemingly unable to shake off no matter what.
"Bang ......"
It's gunshots. She couldn't hear it wrong. But hasn't she already crossed over? How can there be a gun here? Did anyone else pass through with her?
As he pondered, a bullet that rushed out of the chamber of the gun flew past Yun Yan's ear. I suddenly felt a headache, my ears were buzzing, and I couldn't seem to hear anything.
Secretly glad that the sudden bullet didn't hit him. I didn't care who was chasing after me, I was seriously looking for a way to get out of here quickly, but suddenly my feet were empty, and I fell straight down.
There was still a road just now, why did a pit suddenly appear. No, maybe it's an abyss.
Because Yunyan felt that he had been falling, and he had not fallen for a long, long time.
The heart said that he was not dreaming, and pinched himself hard, and it hurt very much.
The panic in Yun Yan's heart began to intensify, and there was suddenly a light in the abyss. If you look closely, it's hot magma. Yunyan could clearly see that a drop of his sweat had not yet dripped into the magma and had evaporated.
In the panic, Yunyan found that his hands and feet were also disappearing.
"Ahh
Yunyan, who was lying on the bed, screamed and sat up suddenly. Panting for air, he looked around with wide eyes.
It turned out to be a dream.
When I raised my hand, I was sweating all over my forehead. Yunyan adjusted his breathing, straightened his body, and suddenly felt that his body was sticky, and his back was already soaked with sweat.
Yunyan, who was relieved, got up and got out of bed and looked around.
The bed is a low couch with a low table in the middle of the room. There is a tea set on the table. The teapot is not tea, but white water.
There are calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls of the room, all of which are Buddhist scriptures. And on the wall opposite the door there is a big word "Zen" on it.
I knew that this might be a temple.
Yunyan sat down and poured a glass of water to drink, thinking carefully about where she fainted......
The door suddenly opened, and Yunyan got up and stared at the visitor vigilantly.
An old man with a white beard dressed in a robe.
The person who came looked at Yunyan and stared at himself, and said with a smile: "Are you awake?" Hungry or not? ”
Yunyan looked at the old man quickly, maybe someone else saved him? If it was for her, it would have been done a long time ago. After thinking about it, he said slowly: "Thank you seniors for saving your life." ”
"Well, it doesn't matter, it's all fate." The old man walked over and sat cross-legged on the futon. and stretched out his hand to signal Yunyan to sit down as well.
Without waiting for Yunyan to ask, the old man himself first told the reason, "I am a cultivator, Yang Quanzhen, just call me Yang Lao." ”
"Yunyan is also difficult to protect himself now, thank you Yang Lao for helping, the grace of saving his life cannot be repaid, I just wait for the future to report, and I hope Yang Lao will forgive me." Yunyan didn't know why, from the bottom of his heart, he felt that the old man in front of him was dressed in an ancient road fairy style, and he must have a great background.
"Taoism has clouds, and only when there is fate can we meet, and meeting is fate. More on the future. "Yang Quan said sincerely, if I don't scold you first, I'm afraid you won't be able to pay attention to me in the future.
"What Elder Yang said is very reasonable." Yunyan had a good eye and hurriedly poured tea and water. Secretly glad, fortunately, you people in the rivers and lakes are so righteous that you can't stand by and watch, otherwise she would probably die on the spot, or she would have been picked up and sold in the flower building.
Yang Quanzhen looked at Yunyan, who was very good, and was very relieved, sure enough, what was chosen by the Mandate of Heaven was not ordinary. "When I was younger, I was traveling everywhere, looking for people everywhere. The host here and I are old friends. You can stay and recuperate in peace for the time being. It's not too late to talk about other things when you're well. ”
"Yes." Yunyan doesn't really know how to say flattering words. In his previous life, he was already in a high position.
I came here by chance, and it was just right to recuperate and recuperate this severely malnourished body.
Even if she is okay now, she can't go back immediately. Aunt He wants her life, and when she goes back, she will die.
Besides, the masked man must have brought the news of her death to Aunt He, so as long as she didn't show up, then she was safe.
Her cheap daddy can't tell her about it for the time being. First, she couldn't believe it, and secondly, she saw with her own eyes that Aunt He was completely a white lotus in front of him, maybe her father thought she was framing his little wife.
Besides, if he doesn't see anyone for a few days, his father will definitely ask. Anyway, she is also the official daughter of the General's Mansion.
Yunyan, who was in his heart, picked up the teacup and was about to drink water, only to hear his stomach sing the empty city plan impartially at the moment.
"Gurgling...... "That's embarrassing, isn't it?"
Yunyan raised his eyes and peeked at Yang Quanzhen embarrassedly.
"Haha, you've been asleep for five days, and you've been drinking rice soup for the past few days. Let's go eat now. Yang Quanzhen stroked his goatee and said with a smile without hesitation.
"Hehe...... what else could Yunyan say, so he had to laugh awkwardly.
Getting up to clean his hands, looking at himself reflected in the water, Yunyan noticed that his face seemed to be a little wrong.
Reaching out and touching the ugly scar, his fingertips looping the contours of the scar little by little. It seems, seems a little smaller.
Originally, the bottom edge extended under the nose and almost touched the corners of the mouth. Now, however, the scars that should have existed are gone. In other words, it has shrunk from the outside in. What the hell is going on?
Yang Quanzhen, who was waiting for Yunyan, heard the sound of the water disappearing, but there was no movement for a long time. Curious, he turned to read the book, looked at Yunyan's confused appearance, and then remembered that there was something important that he hadn't had time to tell her.
Every woman loves beauty, after thinking about it, Yunyan turned to Yang Quanzhen and asked, his eyes were full of eagerness and expectation, "Old Yang, what decoction have I taken these days?" ”
"Oh? Do you say the scars on your face? ”
"Well, it feels a little smaller than before."
"If you take a closer look, what's wrong?" Yang Quanzhen didn't say a word, and deliberately sold off.
Hearing this, Yunyan stared at himself in the water again, well, it seems that the color of the scar has darkened?
The area has become smaller, but the color has become darker, what is going on, is it possible that there is still salvation?
"Old Yang, the scar on my face is natural." Yunyan looked at Yang Quanzhen ignorantly.
